Huaining County remains the same as before.
It has rich water systems, rich real estate, and a land of plenty.
The battles between the Demon Sect and the Immortal Sects of the five northwest countries did not seem to have much impact on small places like Huaining County.
The sky is vast, and the scorching sun is shining in the sky, spreading billions of light. A five-color escaping light travels slowly and unhurriedly through the clouds and mist in the sky. Gu Qing is stepping on the air with his hands behind his back, looking down from time to time.
'Now that I have returned to the five northwest regions of Yunmiao Continent...'
Gu Qing's eyes wavered slightly, and he looked inwardly.
He tried to sense the current location of the blood demon fetus. By observing the current stagnant state of his own soul and the seed of consciousness that was originally planted into the blood demon fetus, he immediately knew that the blood demon fetus should still be in a certain storage state. Inside the Treasure of Things, his eyes narrowed.
'The original Immortal Sects of the five northwest countries should have been reshuffled now. It may not be easy to find the masters and disciples who stole the Blood Demon Fetus underground in the Five Hells Ghost Sect... They are temporarily staying. In the northwest of Yunmiao Continent, are you looking for the blood demon fetus, or should you immediately return to the vast sea and the jade sea area? '
Gu Qing couldn't make up his mind for a moment.
If you stay in the northwest of Yunmiao Continent and look for the blood demon fetus, you will most likely be involved in the struggle between the immortal sects and the demon sects in the northwest.
According to the little information he had previously received on the vast sea, the war between the immortal sects and the demonic sects in the five northwest countries of Yunmiao Continent has not ended yet, but has fallen into a stalemate.
This stalemate situation was probably like a quagmire. Once involved, it would be difficult to get out. Naturally, he was not willing to end easily.
And if he returns to the Jade Sea Area of the Vast Sea, in addition to dealing with some trivial matters, he will practice in retreat step by step. By swallowing the remaining Indigo Body Building Pill and the Lotus Heart Jade Dew Pill, he will practice all the way to the sixth level of foundation building. Try to hit the later stage of foundation building again.
'If you think about it, it would be better to return to the vast sea. As for the search for the blood demon fetus, let's wait until the five northwest regions of the mainland have stabilized...' Gu Qing thought as he let out a sigh of relief.
He, who was at the sixth level of foundation building, walked through the air without any haste. While thinking about it, he had arrived at the edge of Huaining County.
Just when he was about to escape from Huaining County.
His expression moved slightly, and his eyes were a little confused.
Gu Qing turned around and pressed down the escape light in front of a pool of water below. He looked at the reflection of the young man in black robe in the water, his eyes flashing slightly.
After leaving the Fangdongtian world, his appearance has recovered, but I don't know if he will still carry the identity of the young Korean star if he enters the Fangdongtian world again in the future...
It was late autumn and the cool breeze was bleak.
There are two rows of dark green willow trees on the shore, with swaying branches.
Suddenly there were rolling waves in the water in front of him. A group of fishes dispersed in the clear water in shock. Only a pleasure boat was seen, slowly coming from under the bridge in the distance. Gu Qing raised his head and glanced. His eyes were on the second floor of the pleasure boat. , paused for a moment above a room.
At this time, there was a noise behind him.
A carriage was flying toward the ground, raising dust as if it was clinging to the ground. The two horses pulling the carriage were covered in black and red hair. They were fat and strong, and their long neighs seemed to shake the metal. The ground was shaken by the heavy and dense sound of horse hooves. It was shaking, and there were pitiful screams, accompanied by cries and whimpering.
Gu Qing frowned slightly and looked back.
It looks like a carriage dragging dust. It is extremely luxurious and more than twice the size of an ordinary carriage. The driver is tall and strong, wearing thick black armor. Through the curtain of the carriage that was lifted by the wind, you can see what's inside. It was as bright as a bright hall, and young men with different expressions were sitting there.
"Boy in front, give way quickly!"
Seeing a young man in black standing indifferently on the shore, the driver of the leading carriage raised his head, revealing his face and round eyes, and shouted loudly. Not only did he not rein in the horse, but he slapped the horse's butt again. With two whips, the horse galloped forward, raised its hooves and stepped down towards Gu Qing, landing next to Gu Qing with a bang.
A small pit exploded under the horse's hooves, only half an inch away from Gu Qing. The driver looked down at Gu Qing and jumped out of the carriage without saying anything.
"The boat that is waiting to take you to the Immortal Sect has arrived. Get out of my car quickly." Amidst the sound of the thick black armor rubbing, the driver looked arrogant and shouted unceremoniously to the young people in the car.
All the young people in the car were frightened.
A few rich kids were doing better. After calming down, they quickly climbed out of the carriage. Several of them were already nodding and bowing to the coachman to compliment them. However, there were several farm boys in the carriage who were wearing coarse linen clothes and had calluses on their hands. However, his legs began to shake, and one of them even fell down when he climbed out of the carriage.
The young men burst into laughter uncontrollably, sweeping away the previously tense atmosphere. Seeing this scene, the tall coachman glanced at the farm boy with a half-smile but not a smile.
"Lin Cheng, I think you don't want to become an immortal anymore. It's not bad to dig the ground, right? At least you can still eat!" A young man in a purple robe laughed a few times, shook his head, and advised.
"No, this country bumpkin can also go to cultivate immortality. That bitch of his mother is just a prostitute who rides on thousands of people. It's disgusting for a bastard country bumpkin to ride in the same carriage with such a person." A good-looking guy, Some girls with baby fat said sarcastically.
"Who says it's not..."
Most of the other teenagers also agreed.
The tall and sturdy coachman glanced at the purple-robed boy and the baby-fat girl strangely, and shook his head inconspicuously.
Gu Qing did not pay attention to what these teenagers said, but instead focused his attention on the back of the carriage. There were several people covered in blood, who were struggling to get up. On the way of the carriage, there were several long blood-stained ravines. , because he dragged these people along and stayed.
"You guys, get up quickly." Noticing Gu Qing's gaze, the tall coachman came to the side, raised his chin, and said to the bloody gourd-like figures, "The children of the Sin Clan must also To enter my immortal sect, you will naturally have to pay some price, how many of you have any hatred?"
The tall and strong coachman seemed to be speaking to Gu Qing, and he also seemed to be speaking to the miserable little guys who were dragged along the way.
The young men also stopped talking, and looked at the guys who were being dragged along with either alienation or pity. These people were the descendants of the Xiang family of the Sin Clan. Although they also had spiritual roots and could be sent to Cultivation in the Immortal Sect is destined to be constantly bullied and it is difficult to achieve anything.
Several bloody gourd-like figures were speechless for a moment.
Until the thin boy who was the last to get up and had the hardest time raised his head, his eyes were clear and clear, and he calmly uttered two words: "No hatred."
The tall and sturdy coachman glanced at the young man, nodded, and walked to the shore, standing side by side with Gu Qing, waiting for the boat to dock.
The coachman glanced at Gu Qing, who was expressionless, and said with a smile: "I've met this Taoist friend in the sky, Luo Qian, and I wonder what he calls me?"
Luo Qian had already known that Gu Qing must be a monk, and his cultivation level must be above him, or he had practiced some secret method of gathering breath.
As a disciple of the previous generation of Tiansha Sect, he has been a disciple for five years and has reached the eighth level of Qi refining. Since the person next to him may have a higher level of cultivation than him, he has reached the late stage of Qi refining. , he felt that it would not be a disadvantage to lower his attitude and have a chat with him.
The disciples in the sect have always been allowed to invite foreign aid during the competition!
After all, the Tiansha Sect was formerly a Demon Sect. Although it has now become an Immortal Sect, some of the imprints left behind in the past are deep-rooted.
The most obvious one is in the matter of cultivating disciples.
The most common way for an ordinary immortal sect to train disciples is to let them enter a secret realm to seek opportunities. The so-called disciple competition is just to let the disciples compete in a one-on-one arena, and the mortality rate is not high.
The Tiansha Sect trains its disciples mostly by sending them to a place of death to seek opportunities. The disciples are like cultivating poison and letting the disciples fight on their own. It can be said to be extremely cruel. The number of entry-level disciples is often more than 3,000, and they wait for five years. In the past, there would only be two or three hundred left.
Although it is cruel to the extreme, the training system of Tiansha Sect selects disciples who are hard-working and ruthless. Therefore, among the three hundred surviving disciples, there are often hundreds of disciples who can build foundations. Compared with ordinary immortals, For the disciples of the sect, the extremely pitiful chance of establishing a foundation is naturally many times higher.
The cruel disciple selection system has naturally given rise to various abnormal rules. For example, disciples who participate in the competition can ask for foreign aid to help them. Of course, the senior leaders of the Tiansha Sect, for their disciples, in order to cope with the competition, , and there are regulations for the foreign aid that is invited, that is, the cultivation level of the foreign aid must not exceed the Qi refining period.
Luo Qian has been in the industry for five years now.
The last disciple competition will be held in three months.
After passing this competition, he would be able to successfully advance to the inner sect and have a chance to build a foundation, so he began to think about recruiting foreign aid.
"Gu Qing." Gu Qing responded calmly.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, nice to meet you." Luo Qian glanced at the group of young people behind him and nodded, "Since Daoist Friend Gu is here to take the boat, could it be that he heard the news that a three-talented moon-viewing event is going to be held in Yingzhoufang? Yingzhou This three-talented moon-appreciation event in the workshop is a rare event in the world of cultivation in the industry. At that time, our Tiansha Sect, Dique Sect, and Human Demon Sect will send their respective geniuses to participate in the event."
"I haven't heard of it. Thank you Fellow Daoist Luo for letting me know. If Gu has time, I will go and have a look." Gu Qing was still as calm as before.
Just hearing the words 'Human Demon Sect', Gu Qing suddenly remembered the White Bone Man Demon Red Butterfly that he had obtained in Beize Liuji Mountain.
This Bone Man Demon has been lying in one of his storage bags, forgotten by him for many years, mainly because he has never encountered the secret method to refine the Bone Man Demon, and he cannot control it.
'The monks of the Human Demon Sect will also come to this Three Talents Moon Appreciation Conference? Then you might as well go and have a look. ' Gu Qingru thought.
While Gu Qing was chatting with Luo Qian from Tianshamen, the pleasure boat had already stopped in front. There were many boys and girls standing on the deck looking down. A woman with flowing white clothes and a handsome appearance stepped forward. Standing on the railing of the bow, he glanced at the young men on the shore and Gu Qing with his sharp eyes.
"Junior Brother Luo, this is..." The woman's eyes fell on Gu Qing, seeming a little confused, and asked Luo Qian beside her.
"Junior sister Chang Yue, this is fellow Taoist Gu Qing, and I want to take a boat."
When Naluo Qian saw this woman, he immediately responded with a smile on his face.
As he spoke, he took a few steps forward and grabbed the two young men with frightened faces under his arms as if he were grabbing chickens. He flew onto the ship and put the two men down on the deck. The young man returned to the shore... He was going back and forth very quickly, and in just a few breaths, all the young men were carried to the boat.
When the woman heard the word 'Gu Qing', she felt it was even more familiar. She glanced at Gu Qing intently for a few times and suddenly lowered her head: "Since we want to take a convenient boat, please ask fellow Taoist Gu to come up. The sect's formations are arranged on the boat. , after Fellow Daoist Gu gets on board, don’t try to mobilize your spiritual power.”
"Okay." Gu Qing nodded.
In a flash, he was already on the ship, stepping on the deck, looking around at the boys and girls with curious eyes with a slight smile on his face, he found a corner on the deck to sit down, closed his eyes and began to regulate his breathing.
The female cultivator in a plain white dress quickly returned to the cabin with her head lowered. She came to the second floor of the cabin and looked back at the young man in black robe in the corner of the deck below, her mind filled with emotions and her eyes complicated.
'It's the one named Gu! This person took advantage of my Chang family, but abandoned me and Jingzhi..." Chang Yue's chest rose and fell a little, she looked back, pushed the door open and returned to her room.
…
'Sigh... It's a blessing to return to my hometown and meet old friends again. '
Gu Qing looked a little sad.
He had recognized before that the female cultivators in Suqun were Chang Yue who he had brought to Huaining County from Yingchuan County after he came out of Demon Spirit Stream.
At first, he thought that Chang Yue and Liu Jingzhi, the granddaughter of Old Man Liu, were taken to the sea by a monk from a certain sect under the jurisdiction of Hehuan Road, so he did not try to recover the two girls - the situation in Ye Country was tense at that time. , he is eager to return to the Xianhe Sect, and his decision is correct.
But now that I see Chang Yue again, it's hard to avoid feeling a little weird.
'I only see Changyue, but not Liu Jingzhi, why? Hmm... Liu Jingzhi didn't seem to have the qualifications to practice at the beginning. '
Gu Qing briefly recalled the past, and then focused on the storage ring at his fingertips. After a long time, he turned the storage ring inside out and found a storage bag. He put his consciousness into it and landed on the disciple of the Danding Sect. Old Man Liu, who had taken the third-grade lower-level elixir, was put into the elixir furnace and was refined on top of the semi-finished elixir. Fortunately, the space in the storage bag was stagnant. Although the potency of this semi-finished elixir was lost, it should still be taken.
'Things that were left unfinished in the past can now be continued...'
Gu Qing raised his eyebrows and put away the storage bag.
The boat sailed down the river, receiving two more batches of fairy seedlings along the way. Following the water system that turned thousands of times, it returned to Huaining County.
Night fell, with no stars in sight, and dark clouds covering the moon. Following the fast flowing water, the cruise boat sailed through the tidal flats with silver light spread on the ground, and arrived at Chihu Lake, where the prosperity of the past could be seen.
Above the vast Red Lake, there is a long mist.
The bright pearls placed everywhere on the cruise ship's boat exude soft white light, illuminating the mist. Raindrops fall from the sky and hit the light mask that emerges around the boat, smashing into pieces. On the deck Some of the boys and girls had fallen asleep cuddled up against each other, while others were looking at the surrounding light shields with astonishment on their faces.
Gu Qing turned his head and looked down to the side with a playful look. His gaze seemed to be carrying weight, penetrating the deck, the entire boat, and the vast expanse of Chihu Lake, letting the people ambush at the bottom of Chihu Lake Several monks in black felt uncomfortable.
The monks in black didn't delve into the source of this discomfort. They looked at each other across the lake and quietly dived upward.
The cruise boat reached the middle of Chihu Lake. Suddenly, the light barrier around the boat dimmed, and then shattered. The cold wind and rain crackled on the deck, and the young people on the deck suddenly became confused.
Especially those young men from the Xiang family who were bandaged up by Luo Qian after they got on the boat. Their bodies were wrapped in thick bandages.
Several people were hit by the rain, and their wounds were itchy and painful. After a while, it turned into a burning dull pain, and everyone screamed in pain. Two of them curled up on the ground in pain within a few seconds, alone. There was the thin young man, holding on to the railing with one hand, his face pale and his lips blue. He didn't say a word, looking at the night under the rain around him.
"You are young and your mind is quite strong. What is your name?" A calm word sounded behind the thin boy, and then a hand pressed on the thin boy's shoulder from behind, and a warm feeling came from behind. shoulders and spread to his whole body.
The thin boy looked back at Gu Qing.
He looked like a chicken that had been soaked all over. His short hair was divided into locks, and he looked very embarrassed. He glanced at Gu Qing several times, then pursed his lips and said, "To the direction, to the direction, and to the words."
"Haha, I think it's more appropriate to call you 'Bu Yan'."
Gu Qing touched the thin boy's head.
At first, Xiang Yan, a thin boy, wanted to run away, but as Gu Qing's palm fell, he felt a tingling sensation on his scalp, and then his whole body, which was originally wet, was evaporated by a strange force. Even the wounds he had suffered from being dragged around healed quickly.
It was a very strange feeling. It made the thin young man Xiang Yan feel in a trance for a moment. A little green light seemed to appear in front of his eyes. When the green light dissipated, he came back to his senses and felt no pain from the wounds all over his body. He lowered his head and looked at his hands and feet, which had no trace of water stains.
"You... thank you, Mr. Immortal Master." Xiang Yan raised his incomprehensible eyes, looked at Gu Qing, and said in a stuttering tone.
"Listen to what Luo Qian said, aren't you from the Xiang family? You came to Huaining County many years ago. At that time, the Xiang family was the largest family in Huaining. Why do you seem to have never seen a monk?" Gu Qing asked. road.
"I, I am a branch of the Xiang family..." Xiang Yan still responded very briefly: "Besides, the Xiang family has declined."
Xiang Yan listened to the screams and looked to one side, where the Xiang family members were lying on the ground wailing, then quickly looked away, lowered their heads, and pursed the corners of their mouths.
"I thought you would ask me to save them." Gu Qing blinked and smiled at Xiang Yan. Then he took two steps, placed one palm on the railing, and slowly pressed upward with the other hand.
Gu Qing's spiritual energy circulated rapidly, all of it turned into water attributes, and quickly spread towards the surroundings. A bright spiritual light rose from Gu Qing's pressed hand, like fireworks flying into the sky, and suddenly appeared in the air. Spreading in mid-air, it captured the water vapor within the entire Red Lake.
Buzz!
The rain all around stopped for a moment.
Billions of raindrops were stagnant in mid-air, and the Chihu Lake below no longer had any waves, and the world seemed to be at a standstill.
All the young people on the boat looked at the young man in black robe on the bow of the boat like a god. Luo Qian, who was tall and strong, stood up and looked at Gu Qing in horror, with disbelief in his heart.
"Which fellow Taoist actually boarded my Tianshamen ship without making a sound?" A deep voice boomed, and then the door of the only room on the third floor of the cabin burst into pieces, and a man appeared out, wrapped in bloody brilliance. The figure below swooped down towards Gu Qing at an extremely fast speed.
The figure under the bloody brilliance arrived behind Gu Qing in an instant. His palm the size of a cattail fan moved towards the back of Gu Qing's heart, while the other palm grabbed Gu Qing's raised arm.
But at this moment, three figures emerged from the water below, each of them unleashed a majestic spiritual light, and simultaneously hit the boat.
The figure under the bloody brilliance had a flash of astonishment in his eyes, and then a powerful force that no one could match appeared in front of him. It was a majestic spiritual pressure that directly scattered the bloody brilliance around him. , revealing one of the shirtless burly men with hairy chests!
"ah!"
The shirtless man with hairy chest changed his mind and roared, but he retracted the palm that he had slapped on Gu Qing's back and flew up, brazenly facing the three spiritual lights that crashed towards the boat.
Gu Qing looked at this scene with an expressionless face, his raised arms trembled slightly, his hands clenched lightly, and the water energy around him suddenly turned into cyan.
boom!
Suddenly, the billions of stagnant raindrops all around exploded and turned into extremely rich water vapor. The Chihu Lake below also had several feet of water that was assimilated into water vapor. It gathered crazily forward and formed a blue hurricane, covering the area above. Everything was swept into it and thrown into the sky.
Uh-huh!
A burst of green light rose into the sky, and then exploded, tearing apart the dark clouds in the sky. Suddenly, the sky was filled with starlight, mixed with frosty moonlight and falling down.
With a bang, the boat fell steadily into the Chihu Lake where the water level dropped a few feet. It only shook a few times. The water vapor was cold in the cold autumn leaves. There was a dead silence on the boat. Those young people who did not have spiritual power or cultivation ability, Regardless of the monks, their bodies were as solid as stone sculptures, and they cast their gaze on the figure in black robe standing on the bow of the ship with his hands behind his back.
The cyan aura converged into Gu Qing's body.
He looked up at the sky and saw three rays of light escaping quickly. They should be the monks guarding the boat at Tianshamen. The blood-colored rays of light they turned into circled in mid-air for several times before turning around.
'What kind of cultivation is this person? The revealed spiritual power fluctuates at the sixth level of Foundation Establishment, but can the sixth level of Foundation Establishment casually deliver such a powerful blow? What is the purpose of boarding the ship? With such strength, there is no need to take a boat? 'The shirtless man with hairy chest fell on the deck with worry in his heart.
He restrained the spiritual power fluctuations at the second level of Foundation Establishment all over his body, and looked at Gu Qing with some fear: "Ahem, the senior has great magical powers, and the junior admires him."
"Haha, I just don't want to be disturbed by some guys." Gu Qing looked at the moonlight of Chi Lake without looking back and chuckled.
Those guys who were ambushing at the bottom of Chihu Lake were all in the early stage of foundation building. As far as he was concerned, they could be killed with a snap of his fingers. But in front of this boat full of people, it was really inappropriate to kill them. It is not wise to get involved in a fight between two parties or even multiple forces.
"Then I won't bother you."
The hairy-chested man scratched his head with fingers as thick as a rolling pin. He suddenly felt that he had deeply understood the senior's intention. He immediately responded briefly, then flew back to the third floor of the cabin and strode back to his room. , without saying another word.
The painting boat started sailing on Chihu Lake again.
After a fierce ideological struggle, Luo Qian plucked up the courage, jogged all the way to the bow of the ship, and said respectfully to Gu Qing: "Senior, the little Qianzi has eyesight but cannot recognize the true immortal. I am here to apologize to you."
Said.
Luo Qian knelt down and kowtowed nine times, almost breaking the deck, and his forehead was bleeding.
For the disciples of the Demon Sect, all dignity and integrity are nothing but lies and empty words. If one loses his life because of these useless things, it will be a real loss to his grandma's family.
Although the Tiansha Sect is now an 'immortal sect', some things cannot be changed in a short period of time. It is foreseeable that the disciples of these generations of Tiansha Sect will still be the same as the demon sect in the past.
"True Immortal? If you don't deserve this title, please give me your name, Luo Xiaoyou."
Gu Qing turned around, still with a slight smile on his face. As soon as he raised his hand, Luo Qian was forcibly pulled up by an arrogant force.
"You go ahead and make arrangements to treat these little friends from the Xiang family. Don't damage their cultivation foundation..." Gu Qing pointed at the few young people from the Xiang family on one side. At this time, these young people appeared. Outside of Xiang Yan, the bandages all over his body were bleeding.
"Yes." Luo Qian nodded and responded, immediately calling a few disciples from the Tiansha Sect and carrying several young men from the Xiang family into the cabin.
"Look, do you have any other orders..."
Luo Qian nodded and bowed in a very dogged manner, and by the way, he glanced at Xiang Yan who was not far behind Gu Qing, nodded kindly to him, and quietly labeled Xiang Yan as someone not to be messed with.
"Your junior sister Chang Yue..." Gu Qing's expression moved slightly.
Luo Qian's eyes lit up.
This senior seems to have taken a liking to Junior Sister Chang Yue!
If so... He managed to tie up Junior Sister Chang Yue and give it to the senior in front of him. With this senior's strength, as long as he was happy, he would casually slip out some good things from his fingers, and he expected Luo Qian to live in peace. It’s the big competition after March, there’s no problem!
"When did she come in? Did she bring a little girl named Liu Jingzhi with her?" Gu Qing asked.
"Hmm... um! To return to my senior, Junior Sister Chang Yue did bring a messenger girl. It seems that the messenger girl's surname is Liu and her name is Jingzhi." Luo Qianguan looked at Gu Qing's face and responded, "A few years ago Our Tiansha Sect lived in seclusion in Yingchuan County. When an elder was out, he blocked the caravans of several small sects from Hehuan Road and rescued many beautiful female cultivators..."
"I see." Gu Qing nodded gently.
After asking about the matter, Gu Qing dismissed Luo Qian and returned to the corner of the deck. He waved his sleeves to evaporate the water stains on the ground, took out the futon, sat cross-legged on it, and looked at Xiang Yan on his side.
"My little friend, come and sit here, too." Gu Qing smiled at Xiang Yan, and with another flash of inspiration, he took out a futon and placed it beside him.
Under the starlight of the dark night, there seemed to be light shining in Xiang Yan's clear eyes. He glanced at Gu Qing intently for a few times, walked over, sat on the futon, and wanted to imitate Gu Qing's example of sitting cross-legged with his legs crossed. , but after working hard for a long time, in the end I could only sit in the cross-legged position.
"Since we were born, the Qi in our bodies has been affected by acquired contamination, and it has been depleted day by day. Over time, it is difficult for the Qi meridians to penetrate the whole body at all times, so it is impossible to move the body like arms and move the fingers, and it is difficult to cross the body in the double lotus position. At the beginning, it is enough to spread the lotus posture. , no need to force it." Gu Qing said gently.
"After cultivating an immortal...can I be as powerful as the immortal master after cultivating an immortal?" Xiang Yan looked at Gu Qing with bright eyes.
Gu Qing responded noncommittally: "It depends on you."
"It's up to me..."
Xiang Yan repeated it.
"A monk is like a crucian carp crossing a river. There are only a few who can actually build a foundation. After building a foundation, there is still the formation of an elixir, and that elixir formation is even more difficult to achieve. What's more, there is a Nascent Soul on top of the elixir formation...the cultivation passed down from generation to generation. The highest realm is to become a god, but there must be a higher realm beyond the god. The road to immortality is endless. If you don't have an unshakable heart of rock, you won't be able to achieve it." Gu Qing sighed and said.
Xiang Yan nodded his head half-understanding.
Gu Qing glanced at Xiang Yan.
He was interested in taking a look at Xiang Yan's spiritual qualifications, but finally gave up.
He doesn't plan to accept disciples, so why does he have to take care of so many?
It just adds to the trouble!
Gu Qingru was thinking about it, and with a flash of inspiration in his hand, he took out a high-quality water spiritual stone and was about to close his eyes.
"Then why do you want to cultivate immortality?" Xiang Yan thought of the ardent eyes of his parents and elders at home, and the envious eyes of his childhood playmates. His mind changed, and he recalled the scene where the old man in black robes of immortality displayed his power, and he couldn't help but Somewhat confused, he asked.
"Ask yourself."
The smile on Gu Qing's face disappeared and he responded angrily.
"Oh." Xiang Yan lowered his head.
…
A few days passed quickly.
A mask of light appeared around the boat again, covering it. The young people on the boat fished for fish and shrimps for shrimps. There was a small group here and a small group there, and they were already mingling together.
Luo Qian stood pitifully in the aisle on the second floor of the cabin, overlooking the young people on the deck. These young people still didn't know what kind of sect they were about to enter. There was already a good time left for them to be naive. After half a year of entry, The first big competition will begin.
Usually in the first competition, half of the new disciples would die.
Why does their Tiansha Sect have the lowest standards for accepting disciples among all the immortal sects and demonic sects in Ye Kingdom? Even if they are inferior spiritual roots among inferior spiritual roots, as long as they can cultivate, their Tiansha Sect will accept them all?
Among them, although there are the founders and supreme elders of the Tiansha Sect, they do not value the spiritual root qualifications very much, but focus more on the centrality.
more……
But it's because the disciples of the Tiansha Sect have a high mortality rate.
Luo Qian glanced at the disciples on the deck below, then suddenly looked to one side, where a similar-looking painting boat was slowly approaching, and it was also full of new disciples this autumn.
Tianshamen recruits disciples three times a year.
Disciples will be recruited once each in spring, summer and autumn.
More than a thousand disciples are recruited every quarter, and whenever the sect recruits disciples, their old disciples from the Tiansha Sect will be taken by the elders of the sect and dispersed to various parts of the Ye Kingdom to let these old disciples To 'fool' the new disciples, and eventually transport them back to Tianshamen.
"Haha, isn't this brother Luo Qian? In the previous trial, your good sister's skin was so smooth..." On the railing of the boat on one side, a young man with an aquiline nose dodged and landed on it. He looked at Luo Qian and mocked, "Brother Luo Qian, it is forbidden to hit him. Four fire thunders will not blow you up to death. You will not be lucky this time."
Luo Qian had no expression on his face and responded calmly: "Who was I at that time? It turned out to be nephew Zhao Xian who sent my mother to the throne! Previously, with this trick, nephew Zhao Xian successfully hooked up with Senior Brother Li and was protected in death. But now Senior Brother Li has entered After entering the inner sect, I wonder if nephew Zhao Xian still has his mother to give him to him this time..."
The hook-nosed young man looked at Luo Qian gloomily.
Luo Qian looked at him expressionlessly.
Suddenly the aquiline-nosed young man's expression thawed, and with an attentive smile, he looked at Chang Yue who walked out of the room behind Luo Qian: "Junior Sister Chang! I haven't seen you for many days, and I miss Zhao so much. Yesterday, Zhao even mentioned Junior Sister Chang to Senior Brother Zhu. , Zhao will call Senior Brother Zhu out now."
Chang Yue frowned and was about to say something.
The hook-nosed young man had returned to the cabin, and soon brought out a thin, dry man who looked like a little old man.
This little old man looked at Chang Yue licking his lips, then glanced at Luo Qian with a frown, his eyes turned dark red, and his pupils stood up: "Luo Qian! Give me Xiao Yue Get away from me!"
The voice of this little old man was obviously hoarse and low, but it carried a strong concussive force. As he spoke these words, a roaring blood-red ferocious beast seemed to condense around his figure.
Luo Qian looked a little wary and took half a step back.
'If I can take advantage of that person...'
He glanced at the deck below from the corner of his eye, but was caught by Gu Qing. His face suddenly turned pale, and cold sweat flowed from his forehead.
Gu Qing scattered the ashes of spirit stone in his hand and raised his eyes to look at Chang Yue on the second floor of the deck. After Chang Yue walked out of the room, she had already peeked at Gu Qing several times.
She was a little unbelievable that this man had already established a foundation and had become an extremely powerful person among the foundation-building monks.
But at the same time, she didn't feel any surprise - it seemed normal that such a guy who had no love, devoted himself to cultivation, and had no bottom line, but still had some talent, could achieve such strength.
Last night she thought several times about how she should face this person.
But in fact, she didn't need to think about this issue at all.
With this person's strength and shamelessness, she had no other choice but to face him respectfully, humbly, and as a junior.
Chang Yue, who entered the Tiansha Sect and has survived to this day, deeply understands the principle that the strong are respected. The confusion last night was only temporary.
"Chang Yue has met Senior Gu." Chang Yue flew down to the second floor of the cabin, quickly came to Gu Qing, clasped his fists and bowed, saluting.
A gust of fragrant wind hit his face, Xiang Yanzi opened his eyes in a daze, and saw a woman as beautiful as a fairy in front of him. He shrunk, sat up with a red face, and carefully looked around.
Gu Qing looked at Chang Yue, and the chuckle on his face gradually disappeared: "You saw me coming last night, why didn't you come to see me until now?"
Gu Qing's eyes seemed to contain strong pressure, which made Chang Yue feel extremely horrified. With an ugly expression on her face, she knelt on the ground and took a deep breath.
"Junior deserves to die." Chang Yue said.
"Oh, why should you deserve to die? It's Gu who deserves to die...that's what you think, right? Gu took away the last accumulation of your Chang family and left you behind. You should hate me." Gu Qing Looking at Chang Yue with cold eyes, the majestic spiritual pressure spread around.
For a moment, he seemed to be the center of the world.
In the only room on the third floor of Huafang, the hairy-chested man shrank his figure and silently recited the formula, as if he had forgotten about foreign objects.
…
Another painting boat next to it is also on the third floor.
In the room, a middle-aged woman with a sinister face and a strong back suddenly stood up, but immediately sat down again.
The spiritual power all over her body was not released, and she was ready to break through the cabin and escape at any time, her expression changing: "Sixth level of foundation building?" Why did a monk of the sixth level of Foundation Establishment suddenly appear nearby... Could it be an interceptor sent by some sect? hiss! Although there will be punishment for abandoning the ship and walking through the door, if this person shows any signs of taking action again, I will immediately use Blood Light Escape...'
…
"I don't dare." Chang Yue responded fearfully.
"Don't you dare?" Gu Qing looked at Chang Yue, looked at her wildly for a while, closed her eyes, and said, "Whatever you want, just say it. Since Gu broke his trust with you, he should make up for it. The matter of cause and effect, one drink and one peck, is it a theorem, Gu should follow it."
Chang Yue was slightly dazed after hearing this.
But it only took a moment before she spoke in a low voice: "No matter what Senior Gu bestows, Chang Yue will gladly accept it."
With a thought in Gu Qing's mind, a storage bag that appeared on his waist just last night rose into the sky and landed in Chang Yue's arms.
Chang Yue quickly lowered her head and caught the storage bag.
At this time, there was a sudden exclamation from the surroundings. She raised her eyes and saw that Gu Qing was no longer there. The corner of the deck was empty.
A clear voice penetrated into her ears.
"Fellow Daoist Chang, in this storage bag, the half-finished elixir of enlightenment can only be taken and refined by Liu Jingzhi, the blood descendant of Old Man Liu. You can use the two thousand middle-grade spiritual stones at your own disposal. The cause and effect of that year Today is the day, alas, go back, go back..."
Chang Yue listened to the message, and his spiritual consciousness reached into the storage bag. Sure enough, he saw two thousand middle-grade spiritual stones inside, and his heart was immediately shaken.
A total of two thousand yuan of middle-grade spiritual stones made her mind sway. She tightened her grip on the storage bag in her hand, and then focused her consciousness on the half-finished spiritual elixir of enlightenment.
'Is this the elixir of enlightenment... It's a pity that it's a half-finished product...' Chang Yue was full of distracting thoughts, and the greed in her heart was like a rolling wave. It wasn't until she thought about Liu Jingzhi, that gentle and intelligent girl, that she secretly sighed and withdrew her consciousness. , holding the storage bag and looking around.
But after searching for a long time, she couldn't find any trace of that person. An inexplicable feeling of sadness appeared in her heart.
What are you feeling sad about?
she asked herself.
But, there is no answer.
…
Gu Qing decided to leave the northwest of the mainland immediately. Seeing that his old friend from many years ago was still trapped in the Qi refining period changed his mind.
Gu Qing had a clear understanding in his heart.
For him at the moment, improving his strength is still the most important thing. Until his cultivation resources are exhausted, or his cultivation level can no longer be increased by practicing in seclusion, everything else will be secondary.
