Every other year, there will be a flying boat coming and going from Tianmeng. Normally, there is no flying boat going to Tianmeng. But Gu Shuo wanted to go to Tianmeng, and the monks in Tianmeng immediately arranged a boat.
Gu Shuo was not in the cabin, so he sat cross-legged on the deck to practice. Of course, he would also spare some time every day, standing by the side of the ship, looking at the places he passed, trying to understand, and then integrating the insights into the Great Wilderness Sword.
A year later, Gu Shulai once again set foot on the Tianmeng in the sea of clouds after many years.
It gave Gu Shuo the feeling that things had changed and people had changed.
There is no elder in charge. In the past, there were tribulation monks here, but now they all go to Jade Cauldron Palace. The strongest person sitting here is the Transformation God.
Gu Shuo found that there was no one he knew anymore. Even Zhang Chen was not there. Don’t know where you went?
He took a look at his former cave, which was deserted and in ruins.
He shook his head slightly and went to the library without going in.
After knowing that the person coming was Gu Shuo, the people on duty at the library naturally did not dare to stop him and allowed Gu Shuo to walk in. Thinking back when he wanted to enter here, he still needed Tianmeng points. But now nothing is needed.
Three days later.
Gu Shuo came out of the library.
It is true that there are too few records in the library about breaking through the Mahayana period, and he knows all about it. Because these records were left by Xiang Zongheng, Shi Kaitian and others. It seems that these people have been here before, or they have left inheritance and been sent here.
"Go find Xiaolu!"
Gu Shuo took a flying boat and sailed towards Bicui Island.
There are many monks on the flying boat, and they all go to Bicui Island to practice. All of them looked high-spirited and spoke confidently. But no one knew Gu Shuo. Gu Shuo stood on the side of the ship with his hands behind his hands, silently deducing the Tianxuan Sword in his heart.
More than a month later.
The flying boat arrived at Bicui Island, Gu Shuo stepped onto the island, and opened his eyes to look inside the island. And those monks have rushed into Bicui Island, looking for a place to practice.
"Where!"
Gu Shuo saw Xiao Lu's luck and shuttled towards that side. Soon he landed in front of a small tree. He lowered his head and looked under the tree, his eyes penetrated the ground, and saw Xiao Lu sleeping on a tree root.
Gu Shuo couldn't help but laugh.
After all this time, I still like to sleep.
"Xiao Lu!" Gu Shuo's spiritual consciousness transmitted his voice.
Xiao Lu, who was lying on the root of a tree, suddenly raised his head, his eyes a little confused. Then he seemed to remember something, and his figure suddenly disappeared from the roots of the underground tree and appeared in front of Gu Shuo.
"Gu Shuo!"
Gu Shuo also smiled happily: "Xiao Lu, you still remember me."
"Yes!" Xiao Lu nodded: "Of course you remember, you are the only one who can find me."
Gu Shuo sat cross-legged, and Xiao Lu fell on Gu Shuo's knees. Gu Shuo looked at Xiao Lu and said, "Xiao Lu, how have you been these past few years?"
"Not good?" Xiao Lu said with a look of horror on his face: "Decades ago, the spiritual energy suddenly disappeared. I almost died, as long as I let myself fall asleep. Fortunately, I didn't die, when I woke up By that time, my spiritual energy had recovered. I am a little stronger now."
Gu Shuo smiled and stretched out a finger to touch Xiao Lu's head. He knew that Xiao Lu must have become powerful.
Daochao!
A spirit of heaven and earth like him would definitely benefit greatly from the Tao Tide. It's normal for it to become powerful. Gu Shuo sensed the movement technique, and he couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised.
The effect that Xiaolu was able to provide to the Tianmeng monks back then was during the transition period from the Golden Core Realm to the Nascent Soul Realm, assisting the monks in transforming their spiritual energy into mist, liquid and lotus. But now it's beyond that level. It can assist out-of-body monks to improve their spiritual realm. This crosses two major realms.
"Xiao Lu, I have a place now with a better environment than here. I plan to establish a sect there. Are you interested in following me to that place?"
Xiao Lu bit her finger and blinked, looking hesitant.
Just hesitate, it means there is a way.
Gu Shuo continued to confuse: "The environment there is a hundred times better than here. If you go there, I will assign you a place, and you can decide on that place."
Xiaolu blinked: "Then... can you stay with me there? I'm very bored, and those people can't see me."
Gu Shuo couldn't help feeling ashamed. Xiao Lu didn't care about the environment at all. What he cared about was whether he could accompany him. It seems that this little green is also very lonely, no one can communicate with him, no wonder he always sleeps.
Gu Shuo hesitated for a moment, but in the end he did not deceive Xiao Lu, but said truthfully: "Xiao Lu, I can't stay with you all the time. After all, I still have to practice and travel. But the time I spend with you is definitely more than You stay here, I'll have more time to come.
Xiaolu, if you stay here, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to come back in the future. But if you come with me, it will be much easier for me to visit you. After all, that is the sect I established. "
"Sect?"
"This is my territory."
"Okay, I'll go with you!" Xiao Lu nodded happily.
Gu Shuo was overjoyed: "Then let's leave now."
"I have to take my body away."
"Your true body?"
"Well, I'll take you there."
Xiao Lu flew up, and Gu Shuo followed behind. Soon, the two people came to a small tree. Looking at the small tree in front of me:
"Is this your true form?"
"Yeah!" Xiao Lu nodded and said, "It's very big, but I shrunk it like this to prevent others from discovering it."
Gu Shuo nodded. It seemed that this was the instinctive protection of living beings. He was also afraid of being discovered, and then he was chopped away and used to refine weapons. He lowered his head and opened his eyes to look underground. Sure enough, there was a thick and long rhizome deep underground. This kind of thick and long rhizome was definitely a giant tree.
"Xiao Lu, when you go to my place, you don't have to hide and disguise yourself anymore. No one dares to hurt you."
"Really?" Xiao Lu looked up at Gu Shuo expectantly.
"Really. I have the final say there, I am the biggest. No one dares not to listen to me."
"Great! I feel very uncomfortable like this. Gushuo, do you have anything to put in my body?"
"have!"
Gu Shuo sacrificed the Qiankun Cauldron, and the little green plunged into the small tree. Then the small tree moved and was pulled out from the ground with a rumble. The thick roots were pulled out from the depths of the ground. The vibrations can be felt by people far away. Gu Shuo immediately put Xiao Lu into the Qiankun Cauldron, then put away the Qiankun Cauldron, and disappeared in a flash.
Soon, many monks rushed over and looked at the big pit. For a moment, everyone was baffled.
"It seems like a big tree here has been dug up."
"With such a big hole, how big of a tree would it be?"
"What did that man do by digging up the big tree?"
"Is it a weapon refining?"
"…………"
Everyone discussed for a while and then dispersed. Gu Shuo had already arrived not far from the ferry and sat down cross-legged. It would take half a year to wait for the next flying boat, but Gu Shuo didn't care. He would not delay his cultivation anywhere.
Half a year passed quickly. Gu Shuo returned to the Tianmeng headquarters in a flying boat, and then again half a month later, took a flying boat to Life Island.
On the flying boat, Gu Shuo rejected several monks who wanted to form a team with him.
More than a month later, Gu Shuo set foot on Life Island.
There are many monks on Life Island, but they only pick various herbs on the periphery. Gu Shuo flew towards the depths. Taking a familiar road, we headed straight to the Aoki clan's land on Life Island.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
Human figures flickered in the forest, and Gu Shuo was surrounded. They were all from the Aoki clan, and several of the Aoki clan monks saw Gu Shuo clearly and couldn't help but be shocked and surprised:
"Gu Shuo!"
Gu Shuo cupped his fists and said, "Everyone, long time no see."
"Gu Shuo, it's great that you are here." A Qingmu tribe member came up and said, "Hurry up and follow me to see the clan leader. The Qingmu tribe can be saved."
Gu Shuo's heart moved, and he made a judgment in his heart. It seems that I guessed before that the worm of life was really born in the spring of life in the Tao tide. Otherwise, these monks of the Aoki clan would not be so happy to see themselves.
The group of people soon arrived at the center of the Aoki clan, and the monk shouted loudly: "Clan leader, Gu Shuo is here."
"Whoosh!" A figure appeared in front of Gu Shuo. It was Princess Qingqing, the princess of the Qingmu clan.
"Gu Shuo, you're here!"
"Gu Shuo!" Cang Cui, the leader of the Qingmu clan, fell in front of Gu Shuo: "It's great that you can come."
Gu Shuo cupped his hands and said, "I've met Clan Chief Cang Cui."
"Gu Shuo!" Cang Cui reached out and grabbed Gu Shuo's arm, and then his heart was shocked. The Qi in the two people's bodies echoed. He immediately sensed Gu Shuo's cultivation and said in a daze:
"Gu Shuo, you, you... have you successfully transcended the tribulation? And your aura..."
"Yeah!" Gu Shuo nodded, and he could also sense that Green Green was in the Mahayana stage now, even though it was only the first level of the Mahayana stage.
There was a look of emotion on Cang Cui's face, remembering that when Gu Shuo first came to Life Island, he was still very weak. Now, the tribulation has been completed. With the qualifications of a monster like Gu Shuo, I'm afraid it won't be long before he reaches the Mahayana stage.
He let go of Gu Shuo's arm and became more polite to Gu Shuo: "Gu Shuo, something happened to the Fountain of Life again."
"Oh? I'll go take a look."
"Thank you!"
The two people flew towards the fountain of life, followed by a group of senior officials from the Aoki clan. Cang Cui asked:
"Gu Shuo, did you have something to do when you came to Life Island this time?"
"Well, I was thinking of buying some fountain of life."
Cang Cui waved her big hand: "As long as you can heal the fountain of life, what else do you want to buy? I will give it to you."
"Let's take a look first and then talk."
The front of life is in sight, and a group of people fell next to the front of life. Green Green couldn't hide the anxiety on her face: "Gu Shuo, please take a look quickly."
"Don't worry! I'll take a look right now!"
Gu Shuo opened his eyes and looked towards the fountain of life. Sure enough, the worm of life was born again. And there are four. The smallest one is bigger than the largest one. This tide really created a group of creatures.
"Clan Leader Cang Cui, that kind of insect that devours the energy of life has been born here again."
Cang Cui bowed her hands to Gu Shuo as a gift: "Please help me, fellow Taoist Gu, the Aoki clan will be grateful. From now on, you will be the most noble friend of the Aoki clan."
Gu Shuo said with a smile: "I have a request."
"Please tell me!" Cang Cui was very polite.
Gu Shuo pointed at the fountain of life: "Give me the bugs I caught."
"Take it away!"
Cang Cui didn't even ask Gu Shuo what he wanted from the insects. On the one hand, they were the ones asking for help from Gu Shuo now. But the most important aspect is Gu Shuo's strength. If Gu Shuo was still weak, like when he first caught bugs for them, Cang Cui might not have agreed without asking anything. But the moment he grabbed Gu Shuo's arm caused a collision of qi, he knew that Gu Shuo was not as simple as overcoming the tribulation and completing the tribulation. The purity of the spiritual energy was definitely at the Mahayana stage. With this kind of strength, he knew that if Gu Shuo wanted to If you leave, you may not be able to keep the other party.
In this case, it is better to be friends!
Besides, what does the insect want him to do?
Gu Shuo nodded, then opened his Zongmu, explored his spiritual consciousness, and quickly caught the four insects of life, then put them into the beast-controlling bag, and then put the beast-controlling bag into the Qiankun Cauldron.
Green feels the spring of life and finds that the breath of life is recovering. He looked overjoyed and thanked Gu Shuo:
"Thank you!"
Gu Shuo was also happy. Sure enough, another insect of life was born here, and this time he caught four.
Next, the Aoki clan held a banquet to entertain Gu Shuo. During the dinner, Gu Shuo also asked Cang Cui how to break through the Mahayana stage. Cang Cui did not hide anything and told Gu Shuo how she broke through the Mahayana stage. Finally, he thought deeply and said:
"Little friend Gu, you are different from our Qingmu clan. In other words, your human clan is different from our demon clan."
Gu Shuo solemnly said: "Please enlighten me."
Cang Cui thought: "The only way to break through the Mahayana period is to determine the general direction. This is the most difficult. If there is no great direction, or the direction is wrong. The former will never break through the Mahayana period, and the latter will be far away from the Mahayana period. The period is getting further and further away.”
"Yes!" Gu Shuo nodded in agreement.
"I think the vast majority of your human race's cultivators who have transcended the tribulation and perfected it are blocked at this level. It is not easy to find the direction of the road. But for us demon race, this problem almost does not exist."
Gu Shuo looked thoughtful.
Cang Cui continued: "For example, our Qingmu clan, we belong to the direction of Qingmu. We have been in this direction since the beginning of cultivation, and it is only suitable for this direction. Therefore, when they reach the perfection of transcending tribulations, our Mahayana direction It's still the former Aoki. We just need to look in this direction.
However, you humans are different. You humans have endless possibilities. When your realm is low, that is, before Nascent Soul, you still have a direction. The so-called direction is your spiritual root. Whichever attribute your spiritual roots belong to, you just need to cultivate in that direction. But once the elixir is broken and becomes a baby, the effect of the spiritual root at that time has been weakened to the extreme. It is Nascent Soul that really plays the role of cultivation.
Yuan Ying, on the other hand, relies very little on attributes. In other words, after human monks cultivate into Nascent Soul, they have infinite possibilities. There are many directions they can take.
And even if you still choose the previous direction of cultivation, there are still many uncertainties. "
