This made Gu Shuo feel sure that there seemed to be no masters in this tribe.
Also, all the powerful demon monks should have gone to Xifeng Pass, and the rest here should be the old, weak, sick and disabled of the demon clan, right?
"Try?"
Gu Shuo's heart moved, and he stretched out his hand to first collect the body of the golden-winged roc, and then sacrificed the sword-raising gourd.
"Chi chi chi..."
Streams of sword light were ejected from the sword-raising gourd, shooting towards the surrounding monsters.
Then……
Gu Shuo grinned. He found that there were already dozens of sword qi in the sword-raising gourd, but these sword qi were very weak. Each sword qi could not kill even a little demon with one blow. It took more than a dozen sword energy attacks to kill a little demon.
Those demon tribes were very scared at first, because all the monks in the tribe who could fight had come to Xifeng Pass. Now there are less than a hundred tribes left, and the strongest ones are only building foundations. Therefore, when Gu Shuo sacrificed the sword-raising gourd, they turned around and ran away. But then I saw Yangjian Gourd's bearish look, and everyone felt that they could do it, but Gu Shuo was nothing more than that. He turned around again and charged towards Gu Shuo.
After a quarter of an hour, the entire tribe fell silent. Dozens of monster corpses were lying on the ground, but Gu Shuo was curiously looking at the sword-raising gourd sacrificed above his head. The mouth of the sword-raising gourd was facing in one direction, with a tendency to shake and fly away. It seems that there is something attracting it in that direction.
Gu Shuo first quickly collected dozens of corpses, and then searched the small tribe. There was nothing of value, but I collected some familiar and unknown herbs. Then he let the sword gourd fly and he followed behind.
Following the sword-raising gourd, they didn't run very far, which was a mountain less than three miles away. Then the sword-raising gourd got in through a hole. Gu Shuo came to the cave entrance, which was on the cliff and was only as big as two bowls. Gu Shuo couldn't get in at all.
Gu Shuo probed his spiritual sense into the entrance of the cave. The passage inside the cave entrance was never wide. After winding for about a hundred meters, Gu Shuo's spiritual sense saw the sword-raising gourd falling on the ground inside the cave. I saw glittering gold flowing out from the ground, and was absorbed by the sword-raising gourd.
"This..." Surprise appeared on Gu Shuo's face.
There can only be one reason for this situation. There is a metallic mineral vein in this mountain. Moreover, the quality of the mineral veins is very high, and it may be a precious mineral vein, otherwise the essence absorbed by the sword-raising gourd would not all be shining gold.
Gu Shuo floated outside the cave entrance and thought about it, and decided to leave the sword-raising gourd here. Find a place to hide yourself first. After wandering around the mountain, he found a cave and lived in it. He blocked the entrance of the cave with a big stone and set up an isolation array so that even if the demon clan passed by, he would not sense the ancient being hiding in the cave. The breath of Shuo.
After Gu Shuo finished all this, he began to check the ores in his storage ring. Looking at the extra powder in the storage ring, he knew that the sword-raising gourd had absorbed a lot of ores. It's just that the power is too small. After thinking about it, Gu Shuo probably understood.
This sword-raising gourd can warm and nourish three thousand sword energy. The first thing to do is to warm and cultivate three thousand sword seeds. Then the power of the sword energy is increased. Now it is just a warm cultivation of dozens of sword species. The power of the sword species is naturally very underground.
I don’t know to what extent that mineral vein can help raise the sword gourd?
I took another look at the bracelet list and saw that I was ranked ninth again. This is a ranking that can be achieved by killing a Nascent Soul, but Gu Shuo knows that he will definitely be squeezed out of the top ten in the end, and may even end up in the last place.
In his current situation, he has given up on pursuing rankings. Just as Bei Wushuang said, they have all entered the Tianmeng, and it is good to be alive.
Practice!
Gu Shuo practiced in seclusion in this cave. Two months passed in a hurry, and Gu Shuo felt that the sword-raising gourd was flying back. Then he pushed aside the big stone blocking the entrance of the cave, and the sword-raising gourd flew in, and was caught by Gu Shuo. When the spirit stone penetrated, I felt happy. There were three thousand sword energy in the sword-raising gourd. I felt it carefully and found that it was more powerful than the sword type, but it had not yet reached the level of a low-grade magic weapon.
Still weak!
It seems that the vein is not big, just a small vein.
Gu Shuo threw the sword-raising gourd into the storage ring again and let the sword-raising gourd continue to extract the essence of the ore in the storage ring. He looked at Xifeng Pass.
It’s time to go back. I wonder if the human race has recaptured Xifeng Pass now?
Gu Shuo sneaked all the way and flew towards Xifeng Pass. Walking by day and night. This is much slower than the speed at which he escaped from Xifeng Pass.
In less than a day, he saw a mess, with destroyed trees and cracked ground everywhere. His expression was one of joy.
It seems that the human race has recaptured Xifeng Pass and once chased the demon race through here.
Three days later, he saw Xifeng Pass. Even at night, he could see that the monk standing on top of Xifengguan City was a human race. However, he still waited until dawn before heading towards Xifeng Pass.
From a distance, I saw human monks entering and exiting Xifeng Pass. Gu Shuo walked into Xifeng Pass, thought for a moment, and then headed towards the underground secret base. He always wants to understand the situation at Xifeng Pass first.
When I saw the big tree, I put a smile on my face and took a step forward. Then I saw a monk sitting there cross-legged.
Gu Shuo knew that this monk was one of Liu Jiao's guards. The guard also had a look of surprise on his face when he saw Gu Shuo. When Xiao Lige came back, he told all the monks in the dungeon about the matter, and Gu Shuo won the gratitude and respect of everyone in the dungeon. I originally thought Gu Shuo was dead, but now I see Gu Shuo alive in front of me, how can I not be ecstatic?
"Senior Brother Gu, are you okay?"
"It's okay, fine. Where is Senior Brother Xiao? Are everyone in the dungeon here?"
"Seven days ago, the human race retook Xifeng Pass, and everyone in the underground city left. Senior Brother Xiao also left, but I know where Senior Brother Xiao lives. Just wait a moment, and I will take you to find it. You can help me guard here for a while. .”
"Hey, is Senior Liu here?"
"Senior Liu went to repair the Xifeng Pass Formation."
The monk left in a hurry, and soon there were footsteps, and two figures came out of the passage.
"Gu Shuo, it's really you, that's great." Another monk shouted excitedly to Gu Shuo.
"I'm very happy to see you, too." A bright smile appeared on Gu Shuo's face.
"I heard from Senior Brother Xiao that the direction you escaped that day was towards the Monster Clan?"
"Well, then I found an opportunity to kill the demon clan. I was also injured, so I found a secret place with the demon clan to heal my wounds. I just came back today."
"Let's go, I'll take you to find Senior Brother Xiao."
More than two-quarters of an hour later, Gu Shuo stood in front of a door. Xiao Lige is not here. But on the way, Gu Shuo also got the news he wanted to know from the monk who led the way.
After bidding farewell to the monk, Gu Shuo walked in one direction. There is a manor there, where the monks from the Tianxuan Competition are temporarily repairing.
Half an hour later, he walked into the manor. The whole manor was very deserted. There was no one to manage it. Gu Shuo walked around and found someone.
Hu Zhengqiu, like Gu Shuo, is a monk in the Tianxuan Competition. I have injuries on my body and stay here to heal. From Hu Zhengqiu's words, he learned that everyone else had entered the demon clan's territory to kill the demons. It was also because he was injured that he just came back to recover the day before yesterday. After chatting with Hu Zhengqiu for a while, Gu Shuo left. I found a random room in the manor to stay in. After taking a look at the list inside the bracelet, I saw that there were only fifty-six people in the entire Tianmeng Demon Slayer List. Gu Shuo ranked 39th.
It is estimated that it will continue to fall!
Gu Shuo closed the list and didn't care. And he also gave up the idea of hunting the demon clan. At this time, the human monks didn't know how far they had penetrated into the demon clan's territory, and they didn't even know how many days it would take to get there. Maybe by the time he arrived, war would be declared. it's over.
Gu Shuo decided to stay here to practice. Now Gu Shuo is not only about to complete the transformation of his spiritual consciousness into mist, but also his Tai Chi skills are about to reach the golden elixir realm. The most valuable thing is that with the help of Zhou Tianbaolu, he is only one step away from achieving the secret of killing.
Thirteen days passed, and the bracelet on my wrist vibrated. Gu Shuo penetrated his spiritual sense and saw the message from Tianmeng.
The Tianxuan Competition ranking competition will end in ten days, and the ranking after ten days will be the final ranking. Then he will take them back to Tiancheng.
Gu Shuo took another look at his ranking, which was number 46.
Okay, not the last one yet.
In the following days, monks began to return one after another. On the eighth day, a total of fifty-five people returned from the manor. Gu Shuo knew in his heart that the person missing was Jian Shanhong, and Jian Shanhong was still on the list, ranked fifty-sixth and last. Gu Shuo's ranking also dropped to forty-nine.
But this shows that Jian Shanhong did not die and did not come back, which means that he still fell into the hands of the demon clan.
The first place is the love flower of the Central Yuqing Sect.
The second place is the driver of Shaoyang Sect in the central part of the country.
The third place is Ximen Pojun of the Western Sword Sect.
The fourth place is Zonghua Jieyu of Shangqing Dynasty in the South.
The fifth place is Ning Caiyun, Taixuanzong of the Central Region.
Sixth place, Eastern Canglang Sect Yunlang.
The seventh place is Zheng Kui of the Central Bamboo Forest Sect.
The eighth place is Wu Nian Temple Wu Wu in the south.
The ninth place is Vowel Sound of the Central Tianyin Sect.
The tenth place is Peng Yiyao from the Peng family in the middle.
Thinking of Jian Yingying, he looked at the Tianmeng elite list and found Jian Yingying's name. There are now only fifty-two people left on the elite list of one hundred. Jian Yingying was ranked 36th. The strength is good.
"Dang-dang-dang..." There was a knock on the door.
Gu Shuo stood up and opened the door, and saw Hua Jieyu and Ximen Pojun standing outside. Ximen Pojun punched Gu Shuo on the chest and said:
"Why did you disappear for so long?"
"Come in and talk."
Two quarters of an hour later, Gu Shuo briefly recounted his experience, and both of them had shock on their faces.
"You have much more experience than us. If you don't die, you are really lucky."
"Yeah, I spend most of my time recovering from my injuries. Congratulations to both of you for entering the top ten."
Ximen Pojun waved his hand and said: "There is nothing to congratulate, and it's not the first place. It's just a little bit of Tianmeng."
"My little brother is from the north and has limited information. Do you two know anything about the Tianmeng? Is the Tianmeng point really important?"
Ximen Pojun shook his head and said: "I don't know very well, but I know that in Tianmeng, everything depends on Tianmeng points. Without Tianmeng points, there will be no cultivation resources."
"Me too!" Hua Jieyu nodded and said: "I heard that there are no resources that you can't find in Tianmeng, and there is no holy land for cultivation that you can't find. But first, you need to have Tianmeng points."
"The place where we will practice in the future will be in Tiancheng?"
"No, but I don't know where exactly."
"It's really mysterious!"
Two more days passed.
early morning.
Gu Shuo opened the door and walked towards the center of the manor. Figures of people appeared in twos and threes. After meeting, they bowed their hands to each other and chatted with each other.
Today is the time to return to Tiancheng. Everyone arrived at the gathering place early in the morning.
There were not many people, the total number of people on both lists was just over a hundred.
The Golden elixir monk is on the left, and the fusion monk is on the right. There is a huge distance between them, as if there is a barrier between the two.
Then the monks on both sides also had circles, gathering together in twos and threes to chat.
Gu Shuo glanced at it and found that basically the top ten were preceded by one or two lower-ranked monks, but the top ten were not together. Not even Hua Jieyu and Ximen Pojun were together. Gu Shuo Shaking his head slightly, he began to form his own small circle.
This is not surprising. Although the top ten monks are ranked based on their points for killing monsters, it is not a direct duel between them. There are too many unexpected factors in gaining points for killing monsters, so these ten people must all think that they are The peerless genius will definitely not obey anyone. After entering the Tianmeng, there will definitely be a fight between dragons and tigers.
The ten monks who were outside probably knew that they were considered geniuses, but they were not peerless geniuses. Everything about the Tianmen League was unknown, so it was a wise move to choose a strong person to get close to.
Gu Shuo originally wanted to be with Hua Jieyu and Ximen Pojun. But when he saw this situation, it was hard for him to step forward. It didn't matter to me, but Ximen Pojun and Hua Jieyu misunderstood that I was approaching them, and I didn't have that intention, but it made everyone unhappy. It's better to just forget it by yourself.
Many monks also looked at Gu Shuo vaguely, wanting to see who Gu Shuo was going to get closer to. Then he saw Gu Shuo smiling and nodding towards Ximen Pojun, then smiling and nodding towards Hua Jieyu, and then standing alone under a tree.
Relief appeared in the eyes of Ximen Pojun and Hua Jieyu. They knew Gu Shuo's strength. Even if they were proud and felt that they were no weaker than them, they also admitted that Gu Shuo was not weaker than them. In this case, how could Gu Shuo get close to them and make them the main one?
Not only were the two of them relieved, but they also felt a sense of admiration in their hearts.
This is the Gu Shuo they understand, this is the Gu Shuo worthy of being their friend.
But others don't think so.
