Yeguo, Tianbei County.
In the boundless wind and snow, a five-color escaping light was rushing through the sky, tearing the cold wind and breaking countless snowflakes.
Wrapped in the five-color escaping light that was flowing at high speed, Gu Qing, who was dressed in black robe, had an expressionless face. In his eyes, like autumn water in a cold pool, his pupils seemed to be surrounded by five-color jagged brilliance, looking down.
The endless curtains of snow covered Gu Qing's sight, so that all he could see were white crystal snowflakes.
'I remember that when I was refining my qi, it took me a long time to come from Huifeng Valley, but now I am only a short distance away from Yingchuan County, which is further away...' A little sigh appeared in his heart.
The scenes on both sides quickly retreated as he sighed.
In just a few blinks of an eye, he has penetrated more than half of Tianbei County. Although he has not used the Five Elements Escape Technique, with his current cultivation level, he can escape very fast even if he flies through the air. He is near Huaining County in the hinterland of the country. , it only took half an hour to get to Tianbei County.
The weird weather in Tianbei County during the two seasons of the year remains the same as before, and has not changed at all. In summer, the sky is full of yellow sand, and in winter, there is snow falling thousands of miles away. The sand and snow alternate endlessly, and there is never a moment of calm. This kind of environment is unique in the five northwest countries.
Gu Qing's figure suddenly stopped at a certain moment.
He looked at the direction of Tianbei City in the distance, his eyes wavered slightly, as if he was remembering some past events, and he turned around and headed towards the direction of Tianbei City.
Back then, Gu Qing was still a disciple of the Xianhe Sect. When he left Tianbei County and returned to Fenggu, he went to Tianbei City in Tianbei County and met Guan Mo and the monk surnamed Ma whom he had met in Huaining County - although When he met these two people, they were unaware of his arrival.
Now that he was passing through Tianbei County, there was no reason not to go to Tianbei City... With this thought in mind, after a few breaths, Gu Qing had already used up hundreds of energy to escape, and saw Tianbei City in the distance in the wind and snow. He couldn't help but frown, and pressed down the escape light in front of him.
The once majestic Tianbei City is no longer there.
All he could see was a vast expanse of white emptiness.
'How could it be like this... Could it be that there is some formation that covers Tianbei City? ' Gu Qingru thought, his consciousness spread out around him, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, he shook his head and sighed softly.
"The once great city was so dilapidated."
Gu Qing muttered to himself, then puffed up his cheeks, put one hand upright in front of his chest, put his thumb on his heart, and then made a stroke to the left, performing a complete small wind-breathing technique, and suddenly a gray air came out. What came out of his mouth suddenly turned into a cold hurricane, sweeping up the wind and snow in front of him.
boom!
The hurricane hit the ground and immediately pushed the wind and snow in the sky and the snow on the ground in front of it, flying in all directions.
As the raging wind and snow dispersed together with the snow on the ground, the ruins of Tianbei City appeared in front of him.
Of the third-grade formation and Liangyi Light Splitting Formation that enveloped Tianbei City, only the exposed and shattered formation base was left. Bones and remains were buried in the ruins of Tianbei City. There were many bones and stones that were also destroyed. The hurricane he sent out with the small wind-calling technique was blown up, and he was captured by his spiritual consciousness.
Snowflakes were scattered all over the sky, like white feathers all over the sky, and soon another layer fell on the ground. Gu Qing stepped forward in the snow, often sweeping over ten feet away with one step.
"This place seems to be the pavilion where I first met Brother Guan Mo Guan."
Arriving at a pond buried under rocks, Gu Qing stopped. He looked at the vaguely visible ruins of a pavilion nearby and stood with his hands behind his hands for a long time, letting the snow bury his calves.
Not long after, Gu Qing was covered in snow and transformed into a snow sculpture. He inexplicably remembered what the ignorant young man had asked Xiang Yan before. With a movement of his consciousness, he pulled out a stone slab from the newly accumulated snow layer below.
Gu Qing held the slate in his hand and pointed it as a sword, carving word for word.
What exactly is immortality like?
Don't wait for life and death,
In those days, the old people withered away,
What does spring tide and summer warmth have to do with each other!
It’s hard to deal with Yao Qin’s worries,
Looking at the world with drunken eyes,
Carefree and wasted time are the same,
To whom is this loneliness directed?
A passer-by in the world of leisure,
Thousands of mountains and rivers paint the sky,
All sentient beings have forgotten their physical appearance,
There is no emptiness, no existence, and no immortality!
A few lines of iron-painted characters with silver hooks appeared on the stone slab. Only then did Gu Qing's sudden anger dissipate. He shook his head in amusement.
"How could I be the one to explain such profound truths?"
Gu Qing murmured to himself, the smile on his lips widened a little, and then disappeared quickly. He pursed his lips, and then threw the slate back into the snow. Looking at the slate being buried in the wind and snow, he turned around, Step by step, he soared into the air, as if he were stepping on stairs shaped by the wind and snow.
Gradually, Gu Qing took off faster and faster.
Around him, the accumulated snow melted rapidly.
And his figure, at the moment when all the snow on his body melted away, a stream of five colors of light lit up, wrapping him up and turning into a ray of light that disappeared away.
'The old people and the old city are gone now, looking back there is nowhere to go...'
An unspeakable feeling of loneliness made Gu Qing's heart grow colder.
…
It only took Gu Qing less than a day to travel all the way through Tianbei County, Beize, Longze Lake, and along the Longqian River back to the Linyu sea area of the vast sea. He did not have any experience on Changming Island. After stopping for a moment, he flew away in the direction of Qingshu Island.
While flying, he turned his palm and took out a communication talisman.
This was the communication talisman he used to contact Yu Zhengyang. There was still no luster on it, which meant that Yu Zhengyang had not replied to him.
'Is it that Yu Zhengyang didn't notice my summons? '
Gu Qing's eyes were slightly confused.
He put away the communication talisman, sensed the current location of the ancient demon's body clone, and prepared to issue instructions to the ancient demon's body clone - before, after entering the cave world, he and the ancient demon's body The connection between the clones was reduced to a very weak point. He guessed that this was due to the isolation between the two realms.
The weird thing is.
After he left the cave world, his connection with the ancient demon's body was slightly restored, but it was obviously not as strong as before he entered the cave world. In fact, he could not clearly sense the condition and status of the ancient demon's body. What Si saw was that he could only vaguely feel the location of the ancient demon's body, which made him feel a little worried.
But that's all, he didn't take it too seriously.
Gu Qing still has great confidence in the Ten Earth Transformation Holy Technique, which was obtained from the jet black stone tablet. Due to the characteristics of the secret method of condensing the Dao Heart Demon Seeds in the Ten Earth Transformation Holy Technique, the clone of the ancient demon body cannot exist independently at all. Maybe, after all, strictly speaking, the Dao Heart Demon Seed is just a seed of consciousness condensed by a secret method, not an independent soul.
With just a thought, he can make the Tao Heart Demon Seed dissipate. When the time comes, the clone of the Ancient Demon's body will naturally be nothing but an empty shell.
'This direction... is near Datan Island. It's motionless. It seems like it's in some danger? Gu Qing frowned. He originally wanted to sense the location of the ancient demon's clone and order it to join him as soon as possible, but he never thought that the ancient demon's clone actually conveyed the idea of asking for help.
Without thinking, Gu Qing swayed and flew towards the direction where he sensed the ancient demon's body.
Two hours later, near Datan Island.
Lightning flashed and thundered in the sky with dark clouds. A storm swept across the four neighboring islands below. The sea surface surged violently under the rolling storm. Suddenly, a winding lightning flashed across the clouds, and then there was a crackling sound, as if it was about to explode. The whole sky and earth shone into silvery white.
As the brilliance of lightning flashed past, a black-robed figure suddenly appeared in mid-air above the four adjacent islands. Gu Qing, draped in the rain, scanned the four islands below with a five-color aura in his eyes.
His eyes moved slightly, focusing on the center of the four small islands, above the violently surging sea water, with a strange look on his face.
'A rather exquisite illusion formation...'
'The ancient demon's body is under the illusion formation. '
Gu Qing stretched out his hand and patted the front.
Immediately, the light and shadow in mid-air condensed into a huge spiritual palm, like a giant walking on the clouds in the sky. He bent down and stretched out his palm, and slapped it on the center of the four islands in front of him, in the churning sea water. , the sea water exploded with a bang.
The exploded seawater turned into a phantom and dissipated, and an island that was slightly smaller than the four surrounding islands appeared in Gu Qing's eyes.
Several beautiful female cultivators with frightened and pale faces also appeared in front of Gu Qing. One of the female cultivators held up the communication talisman in her hand: "We are the concubines of Mr. Xu, and this island also belongs to Mr. Xu. I wonder why this senior broke the formation so arrogantly?"
The female cultivator who spoke was bright and generous in appearance, and her cultivation level was at the eighth level of Qi Refining. The other female cultivators were all at the fifth level of Qi Refining level. They were all holding talismans, offering magical weapons, and stood around a coffin. There are also three or four formations glowing with formations arranged around them.
Gu Qing did not respond to the female cultivator's question. Instead, he took a step forward and came to the island. He stood in the wind and rain with his hands behind his back. In his hands, he held the Heavy Water Mysterious Pearl and the Nine Wonderful Heavenly Flower Treasure Wheel together. Sacrificing it, it turned into two rays of light, one gold and one black, carrying the majestic power and crushing the three or four formations around these female cultivators.
The expressions of several female cultivators changed at the same time.
They have been following Mr. Xu for many years, and although their eyesight is far from vicious, they can still barely see that the black-robed monk who suddenly appeared, broke the illusory formation here, and then descended on the island, sacrificed two things. The spiritual light is so powerful that no magic weapon can emit it!
This person can actually sacrifice two spiritual weapons at once!
But seeing the Heavy Water Mysterious Bead sacrificed by Gu Qing, it was shaking violently under the infusion of his spiritual power. The crystal clear bead body emitted a large black mysterious light. This large black mysterious light was just swept away, and the island was easily covered. The two connected formations were crushed and smashed through the island.
boom!
Less than half of the island was beaten to pieces. The female cultivators looked horrified. They were all affected by the aftermath and flew out one after another. The coffin surrounded by several people was extremely heavy, but under the violent earthquake , the earth and rocks collapsed, and it sank a little, but did not move.
The heavy water black pearl passed through the island, turned around in the sea water, stopped in mid-air, and kept spinning. The dark black luster spread on it spread in the sea water, causing the surrounding sea surface to spread. Streams of black energy gathered towards the spinning heavy water bead and submerged into it, replenishing the heavy water consumed by this blow.
The Nine Wonderful Heavenly Flower Treasure Wheel that Gu Qing sacrificed caused much less movement than the Heavy Water Mysterious Pearl. The golden wheel flew through the air and turned into a golden bolt. It swept across the island with a swipe. He climbed up to the other three formations, and then flew back to Gu Qing's head, buzzing and spinning.
Gu Qing walked through the mud on the island and walked towards the coffin.
"Young Master Xu, why do you send these beautiful women like flowers and jade to this island to guard this coffin?" Gu Qing asked the trembling female cultivators on the side.
In the aftermath of the heavy water xuanzhu falling, several female cultivators who were not the main target were injured to varying degrees although they were not dead. The leading female cultivator was even injured under Gu Qing's special care. The black light formed by the heavy water black beads entered the body, and half of the body was crushed.
At this time, the originally bright and generous female cultivator was in a miserable state. Although she was not dead yet, her broken internal organs were flowing all over the ground. Under the pouring rain, her body had become a pool of blood. Her body was constantly being pulled out, and the spiritual power in her body was Scattered, with more air coming out and less air coming in, it's obvious that he won't live long.
Several female cultivators who were not seriously injured hugged each other and looked at Gu Qing in horror. Under the wet gauze clothes, the long pale legs were kicking back. The seriously injured female cultivator could not escape. On the face that was completely drained of blood, the lips moved slightly, like a dying fish.
Gu Qing glanced at the retreating female cultivators, waved his sleeves indifferently, and a golden bolt came out from the Nine Wonderful Heavenly Flower Treasure Wheel.
This golden sword was like a divine sword that broke through the black rain curtain, swept across the figures of several women in an instant, and crushed the women who had no time to scream, and turned them into pools of blood with a few pops of pops.
"You should know, right?" A bolt of lightning flashed across the dark clouds in the sky, illuminating Gu Qing's expressionless face. He looked down and said calmly to the seriously injured female cultivator.
As he spoke, he gently pushed open the lid of the coffin in front of him.
Inside the coffin was Gu Qing's ancient demon clone. However, the ancient demon clone's eyes were tightly closed at this time. The body was covered with second-grade forbidden divine talismans and spirit-sealing talismans. There was almost no fluctuation. If you look closely, Next, there is a faint red light on the body, and wisps of faint light flickering.
"Who is Mr. Xu? Why is this man sealed in a coffin? Tell me and you will live." Gu Qing thought in his heart. At the center of the five-color lotus platform in the sea of dantian, the cyan thunder mark flashed and spread out. A large amount of blue light flooded the figure of the seriously injured female cultivator.
The sounds of flesh and blood growing were heard one after another. The female cultivator's body grew quickly, and even her broken organs were repaired. However, just a short moment later, she seemed to have never been injured!
The female cultivator's eyes were even more horrified and she quickly stood up.
She did not dare to look at the pools of blood behind her, and was even more impressed by Gu Qing's magical methods. Of course, she was mainly concerned about her life. With a plop, she knelt down on one knee and said to Gu Qing: "Master Xu. He is the legitimate son of the Ouyang family on Datan Island. Not long ago, he was found unconscious on the ground in the shop run by the Ouyang family."
"Due to Mr. Xu's special cultivation, he recognized this person at a glance as having a very strong physique, so he sealed him in the coffin."
"This is not an ordinary coffin, but a very tall monk carrying a coffin. The coffin was given to Mr. Xu a few years ago. Mr. Xu once said that the very tall monk was a member of the 'Ghost Sect'... As for why Mr. Xu I placed this coffin on this island and asked the slave family and several concubines to come and guard the island day and night, so the slave family doesn’t know about it.”
"Ghost Sect?" Gu Qing nodded.
He glanced at the tattered and nearly naked female cultivator for a few times. Without even lingering on her graceful figure, he looked away and said: "Hurry up, change your clothes, and leave the island... That person on the side You can also take away the storage bags and other belongings of several dead nuns."
"...Thank you, senior, for your generous gift."
The female cultivator's expression was shocked, and she felt a little relieved.
She took out a set of clothes from her storage bag, put them on neatly, then quickly walked to the pools of blood at the back, rummaged around, and quickly found several storage bags, and put them in As soon as he stuffed his waist, he used his sword to leave the island, turning into a ray of light and disappearing into the rain.
It is worth mentioning that this female cultivator did not rush to the direction of Datan Island, but flew away in the opposite direction to Datan Island.
Gu Qing did not pay attention to the whereabouts of this woman.
He pulled the ancient demon's body clone out of the coffin with one hand, only to see that as the ancient demon's body clone came out of the coffin, the red luster and faint light attached to it dispersed, as if it had retracted into the ancient demon's body. The water vapor in the clone's body seemed to have dissipated in the cold rain.
However, there is still some red light left in the coffin.
'What on earth is this...the red thing seems to be a fusion of blood and vitality, and the faint light...how does it look like the death energy? '
Gu Qing's eyes flashed slightly.
He first covered the coffin and put it into the storage ring, then beckoned to put away the Heavy Water Mysterious Pearl and the Nine Wonderful Heavenly Flower Treasure Wheel. Then, he lifted up into the air with the clone of the ancient demon's body covered with talismans.
Gu Qing swooped across the rain curtain, and in the blink of an eye, he had traveled dozens of miles. After he had escaped a hundred miles, his figure flashed, and together with the clone of the ancient demon, it seemed to disappear out of thin air!
The rain didn't last long.
Half an hour later, the rain stopped and the sky cleared.
The turbulent sea surface calmed down, and there were several black spots in the direction of Datan Island from far to near. It turned out to be four escaping lights that were approaching quickly. The four escaping lights were on this island that was broken into half. When it fell, the light immediately disappeared, revealing four figures with seemingly different auras.
Three of the four people looked old, and only one looked like a young man. After the four people put away the flying swords they controlled, they all looked around with gloomy eyes, all with ugly expressions.
"The master's plan has been broken..."
"Could it be that the ancient guest guarding here has died?"
"The few concubines that the young master sent to this island have also disappeared. I'm afraid they are all dead... The young master's favorite Ji Qinghua is also among these concubines! What should we do... …”
"It's just a few concubines, the young master won't care about it. The 'celestial corpse' level body is the most important thing. If we lose this 'celestial corpse' level body, I'm afraid the young master will go crazy because of this! "
