The three old-looking monks were all at the Great Perfection stage of Qi Refining. At this time, each of them had their brows furrowed and looked worried.
The young-looking tenth-level Qi-refining monk remained silent. He walked around the island for a while and squatted next to the pools of blood. There was a hint of a smile on his face until one of the old monks , when the word 'celestial corpse' was mentioned, his eyes flashed slightly.
This person stood up and said: "My sect's Shen Yin Coffin has also disappeared... I can sense the mark on the Shen Yin Coffin and get the location of the Shen Yin Coffin monk, but looking at the traces here, the person who took action should In order to build the foundation, it would be best for you to contact the foundation-building monks of your family as soon as possible."
"No need, I've arrived." A voice suddenly sounded, and then a figure wearing a purple robe appeared in front of this person.
This purple-robed figure has white beard and hair, a tall head, and a pair of narrow eyes, looking around: "Hey! I just went to see an old friend, and I didn't even think about such a big thing happening... "
"Gu Ke Qing."
"Gu Keqing..."
When the three old monks who had perfected the Qi Refining Perfection saw the arrival of the purple-robed monk, their expressions changed a little, and they stepped forward to greet him.
"Senior Ancient." The young-looking monk also bowed with clasped fists in a polite manner after the purple-robed monk arrived.
The purple-robed monk with the surname Gu seemed to be calculating something in his hands, but his brows furrowed closer and closer. After a long time, he glanced at the respectful young man beside him: "Since you can sense the location of the Shen Yin coffin through the mark, you must Do you have some kind of secret method? Leave it to me. I will calculate the location of the person who took away the Shen Yin coffin, and I will naturally be more confident."
"This... there is a rule in the junior sect that you are not allowed to reveal any secrets of the sect." The young man heard the words and smiled bitterly and responded.
"Ha! What's the point of the sect's rules?" The purple-robed monk with the surname Gu sneered. He stopped calculating in his hands and pointed at the young man with his finger. "Then why don't you quickly use your secret method to take away the Shen Yin coffin?" Where is the monk? If he really lost the Shen Yin coffin and Lao Shizi's 'celestial corpse', Mr. Xu would not be as easy to talk to as Gu!"
As soon as these words came out, the young man's face suddenly darkened.
The other three old Qi Refining Dzogchen monks also had strange looks in their eyes. They didn't expect this 'Ancient Senior' and 'Gu Ke Qing' to be so shameless.
…
Within the stone monument space.
"Why is this so?"
Gu Qing looked at the clone of the ancient demon and asked himself a question.
At this time, Gu Qing had already removed all the forbidden talismans and spirit-sealing talismans attached to the ancient demon's body clone. He thought that in this way, the connection with the ancient demon's body clone would return to him. The cave world was so intense before, but in fact, it was not what he expected.
Even though all the Forbidden God Talisman and Spirit Sealing Talisman have been removed from the ancient demon's body clone, Gu Qing's connection with the ancient demon's body clone is still as weak as before. This weakness is indeed related to what he sensed before. There's something different about that kind of weakness.
However, this was only a change caused by the fact that he was currently very close to the ancient demon's clone. In other words, those spirit-sealing talismans and divine-forbidden talismans did not isolate him from the ancient demon's clone. effect, so a question was placed in front of him.
"Could it be...that it's because of the golden nature?" Gu Qing thought of his previous experience in the cave world, Sanqianli Danghun Mountain.
"But after the golden nature entered my body, it didn't cause any changes in me... Maybe I was not aware of the changes after the golden nature entered my body." Gu Qing thought as he turned over the body of the clone of the ancient demon. When I looked for it, I couldn't find even a storage bag or storage ring.
"Master Xu..." Gu Qing took a deep breath and squinted his eyes. The murderous intention seemed to turn into waves, surging in his chest.
Although the clone of the ancient demon did not bring all the gains of Gu Qing and Zichen's secret realm, only about one third, but how huge were the gains of Gu Qing and Zichen's secret realm? Even if it is only one-third of the harvest, it is already a big deal. If it were replaced by spiritual stones, it could pile up like a mountain.
Thinking of the spirit stone, Gu Qing frowned.
He tried to think back, and finally found some clues about where the spirit stones on the ancient demon's clone had gone from the ancient demon's clone's thoughts before entering the square cave world.
"Panyun Cave... Xuanzi Cave No. 19." Gu Qing breathed out a sigh of relief as he recalled the last scene he saw when the ancient demon's clone was there.
"I hope I can find the spiritual stones and other objects hidden in the ancient demon's body there. Otherwise, the legitimate son of the Ouyang family on Datan Island..." Gu Qing suppressed the murderous intention in his heart, stepped towards the clone of the ancient demon's body, and immediately reached the ancient demon's body. The demon's body clone became illusory, overlapping with his original body.
An unprecedented feeling of power made Gu Qing clench his fists.
He sensed that in the ancient demon's body clone that overlapped with the main body, the Dao Heart Demon Seed that was condensed with great effort had a vague and distant feeling like a hazy dream, making it difficult to sense and control it too much.
'this……'
Gu Qingyou didn't believe in evil and sat cross-legged with his eyes closed.
He sunk all his mind into the body of the ancient demon and sensed the Tao heart demon seed planted in the ancient demon's body. The inner demon seed's induction has indeed been slightly enhanced.
"Huh...it seems that I can control it again." Gu Qing breathed a sigh of relief and escaped from this state. With a thought, he escaped from the space of the stone tablet.
Surrounded by dark blue water, Gu Qing's consciousness swept around, and then he stepped forward and rushed up.
Bang!
Breaking through the sea, Gu Qing's eyes lit up. He saw a bright sun in the sky. He glanced at several monks not far away.
The monks were talking about something, but when they were stared at by Gu Qing, they were so frightened that they all clasped their fists and saluted, and retreated away from him. Gu Qing did not pay any attention to this, and flew to the sky between the clouds and took out the sea map. Using the compass and identifying the distribution of nearby islands, the location of Datan Island was quickly determined.
Gu Qing's figure flashed and disappeared into the sky.
"Why don't you interrogate this person? Doesn't Junior Brother claim to have interrogated even the senior foundation builders?" Among those monks, there was a fish-eyed ninth-level female cultivator of Qi Refining who looked at a dull-looking male cultivator.
"Hmph." The dull male cultivator snorted, noncommittal.
"Hey, why should we, the Five Elements Sect, take care of this Ouyang family matter? The second elder seems to be using his power too much for personal gain. I have cultivated well in the Dongfu, but I just asked a few law enforcement brothers to drag me out..." A man with a similar appearance The fair and fat monk complained with some dissatisfaction.
"A period of time has passed since the sect leader entered death. The first elder is bound by the oath of Taoism and will never covet the position of sect leader. In addition, there was a big chaos some time ago. Naturally, the second elder..." The young man with a bit of arrogance spoke up.
"Junior Brother Yan, be silent!"
…
Gu Qingfei escaped in the mid-air of Datan Island, and not long after, he found the Panyun Cave - this was a rented cave shop that hollowed out a mountain to use as a store. The shop was surrounded by clouds and mist, and cranes were flying, making it look majestic. , very impressive.
Gu Qing raised his eyes to look at the cave a few times, then stepped into it and was greeted by a beautiful female cultivator in the middle stage of Qi Refining.
The female cultivator bowed to Gu Qing and said: "Senior Wan An, I wonder if senior wants to rent a cave or..."
"Of course I want to rent a cave. What are the vacant caves in Panyun Cave?" Gu Qing walked quickly past the female cultivator, threw a middle-grade spiritual stone to her, and asked in a deep voice.
Gu Qing did not hide his appearance.
The avatar of the ancient demon walking outside does not match his appearance or even resemble him, so he naturally has no need to cover up his appearance.
This female cultivator in the middle stage of Qi refining received the middle-grade spiritual stone, and her face immediately glowed and became energetic. She quickly came to Gu Qing to lead the way. When she heard Gu Qing's question, she immediately said tactfully and crisply:
"Returning to the seniors, at present, in the Tianzi No. 1 cave in my Panyun Cave, No. 7, No. 6, and No. 4 are vacant. In the Di No. 1 cave, No. 5 to No. 13 and No. 19 to No. 24 are vacant. , the Xuan-named caves have numbers 17 to 22, 30-43, 53, and 64... they are vacant. As for the yellow-named caves..."
As she spoke, the female cultivator was interrupted by Gu Qing.
"The Cave No. Xuan is enough. Cave No. 19 from Xuan No. 21 to Xuan No. 21 will be rented out. A few juniors of a certain group intend to stay in seclusion on Datan Island for a period of time." Gu Qingsi said casually.
The female cultivator who led the way immediately smiled like a flower when she heard this.
Although she rented out three Xuanzi caves, she could not earn as much spiritual stone as renting out one Dizi cave, but how could those vacant Dizi caves be rented out so easily? Being able to rent out three Xuanzi Cave Houses at once is considered an extremely rare good thing!
"Senior, renting the three Xuan-named caves for one year requires 300 medium-grade spiritual stones. I wonder how long you will rent them for the younger generations?" The female cultivator who led the way waved and called two maids on one side. He whispered a few words to one of the maids, and then asked Gu Qingdao.
"Two years." Gu Qing responded with some heartache.
Although he is relatively rich in spiritual stones, he is naturally distressed to be wasting away with 600 medium-grade spiritual stones. However, after all, the clone of the ancient demon has been here, so it is still necessary to hide his true goal. If anyone When investigating, it can at least disrupt the view.
…
After delivering 600 medium-grade spiritual stones, Gu Qing rented the three Xuanzi caves in Panyundong as he wished. Following the maidservant walking lightly in front of him, he left the shop in Panyundong and came to Panyundong. There is a cave complex five or six thousand feet away from Yundong Shop.
"Senior, please look, this is the Xuanzi Cave No. 19." The maid pointed to the stone door of a cave in front and said to Gu Qing.
"Yeah." Gu Qing nodded as if he didn't care.
"Go down." He took out a middle-grade spiritual stone and threw it to the maidservant.
But she was so happy that the maidservant's body trembled, and she almost fainted. Her cheeks were green, but she only had a weak cultivation level of Qi Refining for twenty-eight years. She was still in Hua Ling Sand on weekdays, but now she actually had a piece of it. Middle-grade spiritual stone! One middle-grade spiritual stone is worth a hundred low-grade spiritual stones, which is a full two thousand taels of spiritual sand. What a wealth that is overwhelming!
"Yes." The maidservant was overjoyed. She peeked at Gu Qing shyly, carefully put away the middle-grade spirit stone, and retreated.
Gu Qing looked back at the ecstatic maidservant, shook his head with a smile, took out the jade token without any abnormality, poured spiritual power into it, opened the front defensive formation, and walked into Cave No. 19.
…
Panyun Cave Tianzi No. 2 Cave Mansion.
The monk surnamed Gu, who was dressed in purple robes, sat across the white jade table from the middle-aged man. The monk surnamed Gu picked up the tea cup, took a sip of tea, and pointed at the disc-shaped water curtain in the center of the white jade table.
"This person doesn't look like he's acquainted with that body cultivator."
In the light of the disc-shaped water curtain in the center of the white jade table, it was Gu Qing who walked into Cave No. 19 with a normal expression!
"I don't know. I can't say that this person is just pretending to behave like this just to look for the things left behind by physical training." The middle-aged man shook his head indifferently and played with a white nameplate in his hand. This white nameplate was obviously It was originally given to Gu Qing by Xu Wang, the owner of Changming Island.
"Hasn't it been investigated clearly which force actually owns this nameplate?" The monk named Gu frowned and asked.
The middle-aged man did not respond to the monk surnamed Gu's question.
He held the nameplate, waved his sleeves to disperse the water and wood brilliance in the center of the white jade table, and said, "Fellow ancient Taoist, would you like to come with me to meet this person?"
"Is that physically cultivated body really so important to your noble master? Is it worth asking your Ouyang family to go to war like this? If that person is a monk in the pill-forming realm, how is it any different from sending him to your door like this and sending him to death?" The monk surnamed Gu frowned. He frowned even more tightly and stared at the middle-aged man.
"If this person is Senior Jiedan, the second elder of the Five Elements Sect, he will kowtow and apologize." The middle-aged man responded calmly.
Then he did not dare to care about the monk named Gu anymore, and turned around to go out to the cave. Seeing this, the monk named Gu relaxed his frown, cursed a few words in his heart, sighed, and followed him.
…
In Cave Mansion No. 19 of Panyun Cave.
As soon as Gu Qing entered the cave, he stretched out his spiritual consciousness and scanned every corner of the cave. After his spiritual consciousness found nothing, he searched one room after another as if he was just strolling around. In the past, the five-color aura of the eye has never let go of any corner.
However, nothing was found.
'If you are not in this cave...' Gu Qing returned to the front hall of Cave No. 19 and sat on the stone bench in the front hall.
'Could it really have fallen into the hands of the legitimate son of the Ouyang family? If that's the case, I don't know if the Ouyang family has the combat power of the Dan Formation Realm. Gu Qing's eyes were lowered, and murderous intent appeared in his eyes again.
At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly noticed the dim beads on the top of the lamppost embedded on one side of the wall.
'Um? Will this thing also break...'彡彡
Gu Qing's eyes flashed slightly, and his heart was shocked.
There are not only two types of storage treasures: storage bags and storage rings.
In addition, there are storage belts, storage orbs and other storage treasures, and higher-level ones include cave-heaven treasures and pseudo-cave-heaven treasures.
Pseudo Cave Treasures are imitation Cave Treasures. They often have a space that is not stagnant and can be entered and exited on their own, but it is much smaller than the real Cave Treasures.
He remembered that among the harvest from the Zichen Secret Realm that was given to the ancient demon's body clone, there were several storage belts and several storage orbs. Although the storage belts are relatively rare in the cultivation world of Hanhai and Yunmiao Continent, , but it can still be seen, and as for the storage orb...
So thinking.
Gu Qing was about to get up and look at the dim beads on the lamp post.
Bang!
The entire No. 19 Cave Mansion seemed to be shaking, and the defensive formations surrounding it were forcibly shattered by external forces. Then a brute consciousness swept towards the cave home and fell on Gu Qing.
At the same time, a hearty smile sounded outside Cave No. 19: "Hahaha! I am Ouyang Qing, the second elder of the Five Elements Sect, and my ancient Taoist friend Ouyang's guest, here to visit you."
The closed stone door of the cave was opened from the outside, and two figures entered the cave one after another. The one walking in front was a middle-aged monk. His cultivation was at the ninth level of foundation building, and he was already somewhat perfect. The one following behind , is an old man in purple robe, his spiritual power fluctuates at the seventh level of foundation building.
Gu Qing's face was as dark as water, and he still sat on the stone bench without getting up.
His cold eyes swept across the two people who came in. He restrained the urge to reveal the ancient demon's body on the spot and mobilized all his combat power to beat the two people into a pulp. He just sat there without any reaction.
The middle-aged man realized that his consciousness could not penetrate three feet around Gu Qing's body. He couldn't help but feel a little shuddering. He withdrew his consciousness and pretended to clasp his fists: "Don't be surprised, fellow Taoist. As the second elder of the Five Elements Sect, he is naturally responsible for maintaining the altar." The important task of maintaining stability inside and outside the island is that I suspected that fellow Taoists had evil intentions and broke in, which is really offensive."
"Gu does have evil intentions. Fellow Taoist Ouyang Qing, please take action quickly to capture Gu." Gu Qing's face was cold, and his tone was even colder.
Ouyang Qing frowned secretly and said in his heart that he was ignorant.
He has already understood that the black-robed monk in front of him has definitely not reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment. As for why his spiritual consciousness is equivalent to that of ordinary seventh- and eighth-level Foundation Establishment monks, it must be because he has practiced some secret method.
It is not difficult for him to kill such a monk who has not yet reached the late stage of foundation building. How dare you show off in front of him this time!
Ouyang Qing felt some murderous intention in his heart, but he hid it quietly. Even if he really wanted to kill this black-robed monk, he would have to wait until he got out of Panyun Cave. This Panyun Cave was the property of their Ouyang family. If If you kill this reckless black-robed monk here, the negative impact will never be small.
Ouyang Qing glanced at the cave and found that the cave looked the same as when he came to investigate before. He looked back and stared at Gu Qing quietly for a few times, then suddenly took out the white nameplate: "It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Gu! I wonder if Daoyou Gu has ever seen a nameplate of this style?”
Ouyang Qing's eyes were focused, carefully observing Gu Qing's reaction.
Gu Qing's cold eyes fell on the white nameplate, and his brows furrowed: "Isn't this the identity plate of the guest at the Xuwang Master's Mansion on Changming Island?"
"Do you know this nameplate, fellow Daoist Gu?"
Ouyang Qing raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Of course I know that Master Xuwang also gave Gu a nameplate like this, which is in Gu's storage ring. How come, Fellow Taoist Ouyang wants to compare it?" Gu Qing spoke very fast, With a sense of aggression and a sarcastic smile on his lips.
Ouyang Qing's eyes flashed slightly, he looked deeply at Gu Qing, flicked his sleeves and robe, left two hundred middle-grade spiritual stones, and turned to leave.
"This is the rent paid to fellow Taoists. Since the formation of this cave is destroyed, fellow Taoists can take it and rent other caves."
Ouyang Qing's words echoed in the cave.
The sarcastic smile at the corner of Gu Qing's mouth gradually disappeared. At a certain moment, he stood up suddenly, as if he was extremely angry, and suddenly slapped a palm towards one side of the wall. The huge spiritual palm print suddenly solidified and fell on the side of the lamppost embedded in it. On top of the wall, the wall on one side was broken into pieces.
Boom!
Half of the cave collapsed.
Gu Qing's expression was extremely gloomy. He strode out of the cave without looking at the pile of spiritual stones on the ground.
He turned a blind eye to all the gazes cast around him, and flew directly through the air, disappearing into the distant sky.
