Big chapter!

Gu Shuo took out a bowl from the storage ring, then took off the sword-raising gourd from his waist, poured a bowl of wine, and touched Zhan Qing lightly. Zhan Qing opened his eyes and saw the wine handed over by Gu Shuo. He knew the efficacy of this wine and even traded a jar from Gu Shuo.
"Thanks!"
Zhan Qing took the bowl, drank it all in one gulp, then handed the bowl back to Gu Shuo, and closed his eyes again.
Gu Shuo continued to watch the battle in the ring, and then he saw a battle that made him frown.
This is a battle between the monks of the Hengyue Sect and a monk named Bai Ruhong from the Changchuan Sect. Bai Ruhong's immortal weapon is a sword. This sword does not follow the path of a domineering sword, but it follows the path of a simple and honest sword. way. Every time the sword was struck, it was like cutting out a mountain. But the monk from the Heng Yue Sect used a sword, but the kendo he practiced was called Mountain Sword.
The two men fought fiercely.
A mountain can be cut with one knife, and a mountain can be lifted up with one sword.
Gu Shuo was trapped in the realm and couldn't understand. He couldn't tell who was stronger and who was weaker among the two people. However, the power that the two people exploded made Gu Shuo feel his heart. He secretly compared the two people with Jin Fei. After a moment, I felt a little unsure. I felt that these two people were not weaker than Jin Fei.
If these two people are not weaker than Jin Fei, then his senior brother Zhan Qing...
He turned around and glanced at Zhan Qing. Zhan Qing was still recovering from his injuries, but the aura emanating from his body made Gu Shuo feel that he was almost recovered. By the time he plays again, he should be fully recovered.
Then he looked at the expressions of An Daoque, Shang Yi and Liang Yuchi. Seeing the solemn expressions of these three people, something bad arose in his heart. Maybe the fighting power of these two people is really no weaker than Zhan Qing?
In the end, Bai Ruhong won. In the following competition, Gu Shuo was a little relieved. He never saw a master like Bai Ruhong again.
Jin Fei appeared again and killed his opponent. Although it wasn't that easy, it didn't hurt at all.
This is a peerless player who will be at least as strong as Liang Yuchi in the future and may be the next Pang Shiqing. He couldn't help but glance at Pang Shiqing. Pang Shiqing was sitting there with his eyelids drooped, not looking at the battle in the ring at all, as if he was trying to deduce something.
The corners of Gu Shuo's mouth couldn't help but twitch twice.
So proud!
Zhan Qing finally came on the field and defeated his opponent. But Gu Shuo doesn't care about this battle, he cares about the battle between Zhan Qing and Bai Ruhong.
Fights go from fight to fight very quickly. Because after a round of competition, everyone watched the opponent's battle and knew each other well. Once they entered the ring, they directly skipped testing each other, and the battle became intense in an instant.
But now this scene made Gu Shuo look nervous.
It was Zhan Qing and Bai Ruhong who were fighting fiercely in the ring.
In the end, Zhan Qing was defeated. Although Bai Ruhong was also injured, he defeated Zhan Qing with a slight advantage.
After Zhan Qing came back, although he was healed immediately, Gu Shuo could see a trace of depression floating between his brows. Then his spiritual consciousness transmitted the message:
"Senior Brother Zhan, I don't know what you are thinking, but monks like us can lose to our opponents in terms of strength, but we cannot lose to them because of psychological reasons. I know that this defeat makes you feel uncomfortable, but importantly To become a strong person, we must start from the next battle and win back the strong mentality one by one."
Zhan Qing was shocked, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
What else didn't he understand about Gu Shuo's reminder?
With his current state of mind, there are already traces of a broken mind. If he goes into the ring again, he might become anxious because of this crack and end up losing again. If he loses another game, his mentality will be even worse, he will keep losing, and eventually his Taoist heart will be destroyed.
He understood his feelings now. He originally only regarded Jin Fei from the Four Symbols Sect as his opponent, but he didn't expect that Bai Ruhong would pop up and defeat him, which made him mentally unacceptable.
"call……"
He exhaled slowly and reorganized his mentality. Recalling the previous battle with Bai Ruhong, I was only a little short. In the future, I may not have the opportunity to overtake my opponent. But this requires you to regain the mentality of a strong person.
"Thank you!" Zhan Qing's spiritual consciousness said: "Bring me a bowl of wine."
A smile appeared on Gu Shuo's face, he poured a bowl of wine and handed it to Zhan Qing.
Zhan Qing regained his strong mentality and finally won third place in the outer disciple competition. But An Daoque and Shang Yi's face didn't look good.
The Outer Disciple Competition is related to the division of middle-level resources. A third place has caused the Yuhua Sect to lose a lot of resources. I originally sat there and watched one, but I didn't expect that I only got third place. This emotional ups and downs can be Just imagine. On the contrary, all the monks of the Changchuan Sect had smiles on their faces.
Gu Shuo saw that Zhan Qing's face was not good-looking, so he sent a message with his spiritual consciousness: "Brother Zhan, is that Bai Ruhong famous?"
Zhan Qing's face became even more ugly, and his spiritual consciousness said: "I have never heard of this person before. I don't know where he came from."
Gu Shuo's eyes narrowed, this person should have a secret just like him.
The competition among the inner disciples was much clearer. Liang Yuchi was not upset and lost to Pang Shiqing, and the others were not upset either. Liang Yuchi won all the remaining monks and came in second.
Yuhua Sect, one is first, one is second, and one is third.
This result is not bad, but it is poor for Yuhua Sect. Originally, after compensating the Centaur and Wolf tribes, the human race's resources were somewhat stretched. Now that they have achieved this result, An Daoque has seen a trend, which is that the Four Symbols Sect will surpass the Yuhua Sect in the next hundred years.
Gu Shuo doesn't worry about this, and he can't worry about it. This is what An Daoque should worry about. His focus now is on the prize.
He is the number one handyman, but he has heard that previous interstate competitions have generous rewards.
After the results and rewards were announced, others were elated and even a little excited, but Gu Shuo was not interested.
Two to ten people in each realm are nothing more than elixirs, fairy weapons, fairy crystals and the like. But the first place in every realm competition is not these.
It turns out that the human race also has a secret place similar to the one he entered in the ruins of the long-necked tribe when he was in the multi-armed tribe. He really didn't know before.
In the Yuhua Sect, there is a treasure land similar to the Taoist Hall of the Long Neck Clan, but it will take hundreds of years to absorb it before it can be absorbed by three monks. In the Four Symbol Sect, there is a treasure land similar to the Body Palace, which also requires hundreds of years of accumulation and can only accommodate three people. In the Evergreen Sect, there is a treasure land similar to Yuandian, which also requires hundreds of years of accumulation, and can only accommodate three people.
In this way, Gu Shuo will go to Changqing Sect.
Shang Yi goes with him and then comes back protecting Gu Shuo. Liang Yuchi and Zhan Qing received their prizes. Then he followed An Daoque back to the sect. With them was Pang Shiqing, who was going to the Taoist temple of the Yuhua Sect.
Evergreen Sect.
In a dense valley.
There is a pond. At this time, the leader of the Evergreen Sect, Chu Yu, personally accompanied him into the valley. Behind him were two monks from the Evergreen Sect. These two monks were selected by the sect to enter Yuanchi this time. people.
Moreover, these two monks are both in the Earth Immortal stage.
The two of them were polite to Gu Shuo, and the three of them walked at the back, chatting in low voices. Then they walked to Yuanchi, and under Chu Yu's instructions, the three of them got out of the pond. Chu Yu and Shang Yi were sitting cross-legged beside Yuanchi.
Sitting cross-legged in the pool, Gu Shuo felt a surge of energy pouring into his body. This energy was very strange. It was not pure immortal energy. There was a burning feeling in it, but it was also this burning feeling. The energy is rapidly tempering his own immortal essence, and then the immortal essence in the pool is frantically replenishing the immortal essence in the body that has been reduced due to tempering.
Gu Shuo couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, this was much better than the Great Zhoutian Body Refining Technique.
He couldn't help but think, if he runs the Great Zhoutian Body Refining Technique now, he will definitely be able to increase the effect countless times. But after thinking about it, he still pressed the idea.
If you practice the Great Zhoutian Body Refining Technique, you will definitely make some noise. There are two Luotian Immortals sitting by the pond.
Even so, the two Luo Tianshang Immortals on the edge of the pool and the two Earth Immortals in the pool couldn't help but look surprised, because they saw that Gu Shuo absorbed the energy in the pool very quickly, much faster than those two. The Earth Immortal stage is fast. Chu Yu glanced at Shang Yi:
"This disciple of Guizong is not simple."
Shang Yi smiled and said nothing, but he was very surprised in his heart. If this were normal, Shang Yi wouldn't see any difference in Gu Shuo even if he was standing on the opposite side, but Gu Shuo is practicing now, using his skills to absorb the energy in the pool. The essence of Yuanli exuding from this pool cannot be concealed.
This damn thing is the purity of Earth Immortal. Although the precise level cannot be seen, it is definitely Earth Immortal.
How did this kid practice?
Three days.
In just three days, a pool of energy was absorbed by three people. The two monks of the Evergreen Sect were a little unhappy. They originally thought that Gu Shuo was just a Mahayana stage, and most of the energy in this pool should have been absorbed by the two of them.
Because the level of the body's toughness is the maximum purity of the immortal essence. The purity of the immortal essence cannot exceed the toughness of the body. Gushuo is a Mahayana period...
Even if his body is powerful, he is still in the early stages of his personal immortal stage at most, right?
Who would have thought that Gu Shuo's physical toughness was not weaker than theirs. As a result, almost half of the energy in this pool was absorbed by Gu Shuo. The two of them combined only absorbed a little more than half.
Gu Shuo was beaming, as the purity of his Immortal Essence had reached the ninth level of Earth Immortal, catching up with his own body's toughness. After returning to the sect, he can choose to break through and overcome the tribulation.
Shang Yi also laughed, his disciples made a profit, what could be happier than this?
Shang Yi was also sensible and did not want to irritate Chu Yu, so he left immediately and left the Evergreen Sect with Gu Shuo. He launched a small fairy boat and flew towards the Yuhua Sect.
"Gu boy, why are you so strong in your true form?"
"I had some adventures with the Multi-Armed Clan, and later practiced in the sect's Thunder Valley for a period of time."
Shang Yi nodded, and this was the only reason that made sense.
"So it seems that you suppressed your realm to participate in the interstate competition?"
"Well, I just happened to catch it. Let's fight for some benefits for the sect." Gu Shuo is not a person who does good deeds and hides them.
Shang Yi nodded happily: "This time the sect owes you a favor."
"By the way! Elder Shang, I won the first place in the interstate competition. Will the sect be without a reward?"
"Yes!" Shang Yi said with a smile: "The sect has additional rewards. However, sects like our Yuhua Sect have higher requirements. Unless you win the first place in the interstate competition, there is no reward for second place. So, Liang Yuchi and Zhan Qing are not rewarded. Only you are."
Gu Shuo smiled happily: "What reward?"
"What reward do you want?"
"Can you want it yourself?" Gu Shuo asked in surprise.
"You can mention it, but the decision-making power rests with the sect. You should mention it first."
Gu Shuo thought for a moment and said, "I really don't know what I want."
Shang Yi was surprised: "You should be about to break through the immortal stage, don't you need some treasures to help you break through as soon as possible?"
Gu Shuo shook his head and said: "No need, it shouldn't be difficult for me to break through the human immortal stage."
"Hey!" Shang Yi was so angry that it was the first time he met such a confident person. Not even Liang Yuchi was so confident back then.
"Then I'll give you one million sect contributions. Whatever you want, you can go to the Yuhua Palace to exchange for it yourself."
"This is good!" Gu Shuo was happy. One million, he had never been so rich.
"Elder Shang!" Gu Shuo thought of the sword-raising gourd and took it off his waist: "I want to upgrade this to an immortal weapon. Is there any way?"
"There must be a way." Xiangyuan glanced at the sword-raising gourd: "But I don't know, I don't know how to refine weapons. When you break through the immortal stage, you can go to the outer gate library and check it yourself."
"Oh!" Gu Shuo glanced at the sword-raising gourd and thought: "Elder Shang, if I don't want the one million sect contribution points, I want an immortal sword. A low-grade immortal sword will do, okay? Just three thousand."
"Just..." Shang Yi almost choked out: "Three thousand handles?"
"Ang, just three thousand!"
"It's only three thousand, why are you so angry?" Shang Yi said angrily.
Gu Shuohun said without hesitation: "Is the immortal weapon expensive?"
Shang Yi squinted at him: "Let's just say that a low-grade immortal weapon costs three thousand sect merit points. Do you think it's expensive?"
One handle has three thousand merit points, ten handles have thirty thousand, one hundred handles have three hundred thousand, one thousand handles have three million, and three thousand handles have nine million.
After settling the accounts, Gu Shuo suddenly felt that the one million sect merit points he had just received were no longer valuable.
This is too different.
"Then my reward can't be more? Why just one million? I won first place for my sect!"
"One million is a lot!" Shang Yi sneered: "If you can win the first place for the sect in the interstate competition for the sect in a hundred years, I can give you 3 million sect merit points."
"A hundred years later? Maybe I will become an immortal. I don't like the number one in the outer sect." Gu Shuo said with a grunt, with a dissatisfied look on his face.
"Hey, you can really boast. A hundred-year immortal? Why don't you say a hundred-year jade immortal? A hundred years, even if you break through to human immortality now, within a hundred years, if you can break through the middle stage of human immortality, you will be a monster among the unparalleled geniuses."
"That can't be done!" Gu Shuo chuckled: "I dare not say that I will be able to break through to become an Earth Immortal in a hundred years, but becoming a Human Immortal is not a problem."
"oh?"
Shang Yi was shocked. Although he had no contact with Gu Shuo, people of his level could still judge people very accurately. He could tell that Gu Shuo was not a braggart.
Besides, no disciple dares to brag in front of him, the Immortal Luo Tian. Although Gu Shuo gave him a feeling of being generous, but no matter how generous he was, he couldn't brag about his cultivation. A strange color flashed in his eyes:
"Tell me, why are you so sure? Let me see my horizons."
Gu Shuo also did this on purpose. If he breaks through too quickly, he will definitely be too conspicuous, which is not a good thing. Using Monk Yi's words, it is better to tell it half truthfully, so that the sect can be mentally prepared, so that he will not be suspicious of himself when the time comes. He is still pointing to the sect as his backer.
With a look of making a lot of money on his face, he said: "Elder Shang, do you know the remains of the Long Neck Clan, right?"
Shang Yi's expression changed. He suddenly remembered that Gu Shuo went to the Dobby Clan alone. He made a big fuss in the Dobby Clan in the first half of the time, and then disappeared after the Long Neck Clan's ruins were opened. At that time, the old guys thought that Gu Shuo was dead in the Dobby Clan, and then Gu Shuo came back alive and kicking.
The period of time when he disappeared was the period when the ruins were opened and closed.
"You...ran into the ruins?" Shang Yi's face was full of disbelief.
"Well, I killed a multi-armed tribe, and then made two arms and temporarily attached them to my body. Then I blended in."
Shang Yi took a breath of air.
It's easy to get two arms temporarily attached to the body. He can't fight, but to put on a show, even a monk with a low level of cultivation can do it, let alone Gu Shuo.
But...this is too courageous!
How dare he?
You can imagine how many multi-armed monks gathered there. Once discovered, death will be light, and not even the remains of the corpse will be left.
"You... got in?"
"Yeah!" Gu Shuo smiled happily: "The multi-armed tribe never thought that there would be other races. They were so bold to sneak in without checking. Anyway, they should just look at the four arms and ignore them."
"Pah!" Shang Yi slapped Gu Shuo on the forehead: "Do you still know how brave you are? You are so brave."
"Hey, I made a lot of money anyway."
Shang Yi looked startled, thinking about what Gu Shuo said just now about his breakthrough into the immortal stage after a hundred years, his eyes showed shock:
"Did you run to the Taoist Temple?"
"Well!" Gu Shuo said with joy: "I bought the map in advance. After entering the ruins, I rushed to the Taoist Temple with all my strength. When I arrived at the Taoist Temple, those multi-armed monks were still bombarding the formation. I then sneaked underground and went to the formation. The edge of the law. The disciple formation was okay, so he opened a crack in the formation and sneaked in. The centipede I was asked to raise sprayed poison and corroded a hole in the Taoist temple, and then got in. .”
Gu Shuo smashed his mouth, looking like he still had more to say: "Those multi-armed tribesmen are a bit fast, I absorbed about 90% of them, and they broke through the formation. I just have to wait until they break through the hall. It’s a pity that he ran away secretly.”
"Are you sorry?" Shang Yi was in a very complicated mood at this time.
This disciple was so courageous, but it really brought him huge benefits. Then he was stunned again:
"No, you absorbed 90% of it?"
"hold head high!"
"Then you haven't broken through the immortal stage yet?"
Gu Shuo rolled his eyes: "How dare I break through there? Elder Shang, are you stupid? Can you still survive if you break through there? I have been refining Dao Yun separately. Let me tell you, my current eight Each of the eleven rhymes has transformed by four-fifths.”
"hiss……"
Shang Yi took a breath of air. No wonder this kid said that he could break through the human immortal stage and reach perfection within a hundred years. It didn't take a hundred years at all.
It’s so bold!
This guy is too generous!
His face became serious: "Gu Shuo, please remember that you are not allowed to take such risks in the future. If you want to leave the sect in the future, you must report it, otherwise you will be imprisoned in the Mortal Valley."
Gu Shuo knew about Fanchen Valley, and it was said in the identity jade bracelet that there was not only no Tao Yun, but also no Immortal Essence. It was a place where disciples who violated the sect's rules were punished. Then Gu Shuo quit.
"Why? Others can leave the sect without reporting, but I have to report? Do I still have some freedom?"
"Others are not as capable as you! Do you hear me?"
"Okay!" Gu Shuo said perfunctorily.
Shang Yi pointed at him with his finger: "You don't have to be perfunctory. I'll lock you in Mortal Valley once and you'll be honest."
This topic cannot be allowed to continue. Gu Shuo hurriedly changed the subject and said: "Elder Shang, can you tell me how to break through the Earth Immortal Stage?"
Shang Yigang wanted to reprimand Gu Shuo, but when he thought that Gu Shuo might not be able to reach the perfection of the immortal stage in a hundred years, he felt helpless in his heart.
I have never seen such a tormenting disciple.
After sorting out his thoughts, he said: "If you want to break through the Earth Immortal Stage, just like the Human Immortal Stage, you must understand the true meaning of the Earth Immortal Stage. And the true meaning of the Earth Immortal Stage is the weight of the earth. Understanding the weight of the earth will help you Earth veins are formed in the Dantian.
The Earth Immortal stage is divided into nine levels, one level with one earth vein, nine levels with nine earth veins..."
Gu Shuo listened carefully, Shang Yi explained in detail, first giving an overview of the Earth Immortal Stage, and then detailing the process of breaking through the Earth Immortal Stage.
Gu Shuo felt that he understood it, but he didn't.
"Elder Shang, under normal circumstances, do sect disciples make breakthroughs like this? Is there no effective assistance?"
Shang Yi shook his head and said: "Usually, everyone understands it this way. The earth is vast and it is extremely difficult to understand. I don't know how many monks are stuck at this level."
"So this is an unusual situation?"
"Yeah!" Shang Yi nodded and said, "You know there are 640 states from the central part to our side, right?"
"Um!"
"In the 302nd state, called Dizhou, there is a basin called the Earthly Vein Basin. The sect's geniuses and some monks who are about to expire but still have not broken through the Earthly Immortal Stage will go there. .,
It is very strange there, and it is possible to hear the pulse of the earth. It has a strong auxiliary effect on monks who have broken through the realm of Earth Immortal and Earth Immortal.
Of course, not everyone can hear the pulse of the earth there. It also requires opportunity or strong understanding. Moreover, due to their own reasons, everyone hears the pulse of the earth differently. The stronger the pulse of the earth is heard, the better the effect of practice. "
