The sky is blue and cloudless.
Under the clear sky, it was a prosperous time.
This is what the brother and sister Gu Qingyang felt when they stood at the exit of the Bloody Yang Land, overlooking the entire world outside.
In the outside world, there are now mountains, rivers and rivers, vegetation is endless, and the entire land is green.
Among them, countless creatures survive.
For a moment, the vitality of the world outside seems to have surpassed that of the wild world outside the secret realm.
This was the main reason why Gu Qingyang and Gu Qingying were stagnant in place.
What they see now is simply two completely different worlds compared to the extremely dilapidated world they originally had.
And in the world in front of them, there were many insects with strange shapes, soaring wantonly and neighing happily.
Gu Qingyang also discovered that there were no traces of those black beetles or white beetles in this world.
"Is this a Gu insect?"
"No, it's not."
"Legend has it that the conditions for the birth of Gu insects are extremely harsh."
"To cultivate a Gu worm, you must first put thousands of worms together."
"Then, let these bugs fight together until the end."
"The only surviving insect is qualified to receive the name Gu."
"That guy asked us to cultivate our own Gu worms."
"But how can this thing be easy to raise?"
…
As they spoke, Gu Qingyang and Gu Qingying had already jumped off the Blood Yang hand in hand.
The two of them were discussing the trial while flying in the air.
Especially when discussing the title "Gu", Gu Qingyang frowned.
Because it was only at this moment that he discovered that the world in front of him was actually incompatible with the so-called "gu".
Therefore, at this moment, he also thought of many possibilities in his own mind.
For example, the reason why the world in front of you is such a vibrant scene.
Maybe it was because that mysterious existence needed someone else to refine the Gu worms, so it presented its original appearance in this way.
Of course, the other party may have other intentions for doing this. But Gu Qingyang stopped thinking so much later.
"What should we choose?"
After landing, Gu Qingying stared at the vibrant world in front of her and couldn't help but feel confused.
She is indeed very smart, but her experience is too shallow. Faced with the scene before her, she had no idea what she should do.
"No rush, let's take a look first."
As Gu Qingyang said this, he held her hand again and walked forward.
During this process, Gu Qingyang was always staring at the world in front of him with a measuring gaze.
Compared to other people who participated in the trial, his behavior was extremely strange. But at this moment, no one would disturb him.
Along the way, Gu Qingyang also met many people. He didn't know those people, nor could he be called acquaintances with those people.
But when he saw those people, he felt that those people seemed to have undergone some kind of transformation invisibly.
He still couldn't explain what kind of transformation it was about.
But he could feel that this transformation seemed to be about them.
"insanity."
Gu Qingyang's hand glowed with bursts of dark brilliance, and then he casually grabbed an insect in front of him.
At the same moment, he once again thought of the story about Gu, as well as some methods he had learned about refining Gu.
Not all of these methods originate from the present, some originate from past lives. He also practiced Gu in his previous life.
But that was just a small method that he had practiced before, and at that time, all he had come into contact with was just the surface of Gu.
Because later on he stopped practicing Gu.
In his eyes, Gu was not a great means. Although, later on he also encountered countless powerful people who used Gu.
"Maybe we shouldn't practice it."
"Um?"
"What do you think of this world now?"
"Very good, much stronger than before."
"really."
Before Gu Qingyang finished speaking, he had already raised his hand, and immediately after, the bug in his hand was directly refined into ashes with black flames.
"Actually, I don't know how to refine Gu. However, refining Gu is also a kind of Tao refining."
"I'm not very proficient in refining Gu, but I'm relatively proficient in refining the Dao. So, I want to try to see if I can start by refining this world."
The gentle breeze blew away the ashes in Gu Qingyang's hands. After the ashes dispersed, Gu Qingyang had a black rune on his hand.
Gu Qingyang used his spiritual power to throw the rune far away. And this rune flew very far away in one go.
"Let's go, let's follow."
When he threw the rune, Gu Qingyang had already pulled Gu Qingying and moved forward.
And as the two of them moved forward, two more afterimages appeared in this world.
"really."
"The secret world is both real and illusory."
After a while, the two of them stopped at the foot of a mountain.
The black rune was quietly fixed in the rock.
"Fortunately, I have understood it early."
"Otherwise it would be really troublesome."
Gu Qingyang waved his hand gently, his spiritual power surged, and he evolved the technique.
At the same moment, the mountain peak in front of him also turned silver-white.
"Qin Chi."
Gu Qingyang and Gu Qingying looked up along the white color and saw two words.
And these two words are the same words they saw when they first came here.
"We're still here."
"It's just that the technique controls everything."
"So, who is the Gu?"
…
Gu Qingyang had just said two sentences, and Gu Qingying said the third sentence.
The next moment, the two of them looked at each other and saw a look of alertness in each other's eyes.
At this moment, what appeared in front of them was actually the ancient city of Qinxia.
However, this is not the city they were in when they first arrived in Tianyang Secret Realm.
That city is in decay.
Gu Qingyang clearly remembered that the city they saw was entirely made of a creature that was formed into steel.
And now that he saw it, he understood that the steel creature back then was actually a kind of Gu insect shaped like steel.
However, at that time, they had probably already reached a certain stage of growth.
Perhaps, that stage is death.
Perhaps, that stage should be transformation.
But no matter what stage it was, those bugs had disappeared.
And the bugs that appeared in front of him and Gu Qingying now should be just the larvae of those bugs.
The word "Qin Chi" doesn't look any different from before.
But if you look carefully from the perspective of observing the technique, you can see the clues.
The ancient city of Qinchi that was transformed from a mountain peak in front of us still lacked some of the unique charm of the original city.
"Maybe, we should try."
Gu Qingyang groaned and then stretched out his hand. But he saw that he had condensed his spiritual power into a short sword.
And then, as he slashed out with his sword, a white brick fell into his hand in the white ancient city in front of him.
The overall shape of this piece is like a brick, and it feels cold to the touch. Even if you feel it carefully, you will feel that it is a brick.
But soon, Gu Qingyang deduced the incomplete magical powers that he had already understood. And under the stimulation of this magical power, the brick began to tremble.
"Hiss-"
Finally, a very slight neighing sound sounded in front of the two of them.
At the same moment, the things in his hands also underwent earth-shaking changes.
Where is the brick?
In just a moment, what was originally a brick turned into a white insect.
This little bug was only as thick as his finger and as long as his little finger, but it exuded a fierce aura.
"Qin Chi."
This name suddenly flashed in Gu Qingyang's mind. At this moment, he suddenly felt that this name might not only belong to that city.
But before he could react, the little bug had bitten her finger and swallowed his blood.
"elder brother--"
Seeing Gu Qingyang being injured, Gu Qingying couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.
But then, Gu Qingyang waved his hand towards her and allowed the little insect to swallow his blood.
"It doesn't matter."
Gu Qingyang spoke, seeming to be mumbling to himself, and also seemed to be telling Gu Qingying that there was nothing wrong with him.
But while speaking, he also brazenly stretched out his other hand, and then condensed some weird and mysterious seals.
"Rumble--"
Along with the changes in Gu Qingyang's gestures, thunder began to sound in the sky of this secret world.
At the same time, in a certain corner of this secret world. The illusory figure stared at the sky in shock.
"How can it be?"
"How could this kid have such a method?"
"Moreover, his choice was actually-"
…
The illusory figure screamed repeatedly.
But at this moment, in this vast world, who can hear such a voice?
At this time, all outsiders participating in this trial are working hard to refine their so-called Gu insects.
Gu Qingyang is not the only one who knows the story of the Gu worm.
When these people refine Gu, they are probably referring to stories that have been passed down through the ages.
As for whether they succeeded or not, that is something only they themselves understand.
Anyway, at the same moment, in front of the all-white ancient city, a smile appeared in Gu Qingyang's classroom.
The magical power he just used is similar to a contract, but it is not a magical power of a contract.
The key point of this kind of magical power is that the status of both parties who bear the power of the magical power is always on an equal level.
Unless the caster takes the initiative to release the magical power, otherwise, this magical power is a supreme taboo that cannot be violated.
Because when this magical power is used, it needs to be announced to the world.
In other words, once you violate it, there will be divine punishment.
And this can be regarded as taking advantage of the way of heaven.
That's why Gu Qingyang smiled.
…
