Gu Zhan frowned and said, "Is that really the case?"
Gu Qingcheng said slowly: "If you look through the history books, you are going through the history books, and there are many things that cannot be traced. At present, the history recorded in specific documents can be traced back to thousands of years ago.
Martial arts only began to appear three thousand years ago, and there are no records of practice in the seven thousand years between ten thousand years ago and three thousand years ago. However, there are some traces, and these traces are the methods of the cave that follow. After the traces were discovered, he became a land immortal in the cave world. "
Gu Zhan said slowly: "Is this how the Gu family came to be?"
"No," Gu Qingcheng said: "Although the Gu family has a detailed inheritance of more than a thousand years, land gods only appeared eight hundred years ago, but the first land god appeared more than two thousand years ago.
At that time, martial arts had developed into a heyday from the beginning of Martial Saint. At that time, martial arts in the world had various systems and had not yet been unified. There were also strong men at the pinnacle of martial arts in the world, and the first land god, From the first unified dynasty. "
Rong Yichu said in a deep voice: "Yu Dynasty, Emperor Yu Yang?"
Gu Qingcheng nodded slightly and said: "Exactly, there are very few records about the Yu Dynasty in history, and most of the records about Yu Taizu are belittling and insulting. He was the most famous foolish emperor in history, and the records are all about his various foolish misfortunes after he became emperor. There is basically no trace of his youth.
This was deliberately concealed by later generations. In fact, Emperor Yu Yang was a talented and strategist when he was young. At that time, the world was in chaos and the sixteen kingdoms were in chaos. At that time, the national power of Yu State was not strong and it was in the lower reaches of the Sixteen Kingdoms. Yu Yang After the emperor ascended the throne, he worked hard to govern and improved the strength of Yu State in a very short period of time. However, it could only be regarded as middling.
However, no one expected that Emperor Yu Yang would take the initiative to launch a war against the overlord at that time, and even fight a battle that shocked the world. On Kuaiji Mountain, one man killed all the martial arts of that overlord. The peak powerhouse then led his troops to attack the capital, making the Yu State become the most powerful country.
In that battle, Emperor Yu Yang demonstrated the methods of the land gods. From then on, he was invincible, invincible, and invincible. It didn't take long for him to dominate the world and establish the first unified dynasty in history.
However, after unifying the world, Emperor Yu Yang began to lose consciousness, and the people of the world were in dire straits. After more than 20 years in power, during a southern tour, the army mutinied, encountered an ambush, and was finally surrounded and defeated. The reason for his defeat was Due to the restrictions of the cave, his spiritual energy was exhausted and he was defeated. In the end, he was tortured and forced to reveal the secret of the cave.
It turns out that the reason why he broke through the Cave Heaven Realm and became a land god was not created by him, but he inadvertently received an inheritance, which recorded a way of practice that was completely different from martial arts.
At first, Emperor Yu Yang didn't believe it. However, as his cultivation reached the pinnacle of martial arts and the road was running out, he began to look for a way to break through. After further explorations failed, he actually followed the method recorded in the ancient book. The spirit gathering array was really laid out and the spiritual energy was refined.
After he successfully broke through to the realm of cave heaven, he has been guarding the secret. Every time he personally takes action, he will make a lot of preparations to guard against others discovering his flaws. However, in the end he was betrayed by the person next to him, and he was surrounded and killed and exhausted his spiritual energy. Imprisoned.
During his reign, he made a policy of burning ancient books in the world in order to destroy other ancient books in the world that might contain clues and traces of the Dongtian method. Because of this, very few of the Dongtian methods could be discovered in the world. There are few, but he has also gathered some magical methods.
After Emperor Yu Yang was defeated and died, the Law of Cave Heaven was obtained by the seven rebel kings at that time, and the world was once again divided into seven kingdoms. And the first thing the emperors of these seven kingdoms did after their independence was just like Emperor Yu Yang , in order to maintain their rule, they burned ancient books in the world and cut off the possibility of the Dharma of Cave Heaven appearing in the world.
After two major destructions in succession, only a handful of the methods of the caves were left. However, because of the second burning of ancient books, it attracted the attention of some other people. Following some clues, caves began to appear one after another in the world. Monk. "
Rong Yichu chuckled and said: "I roughly know what happened next. Apart from the initial chaos, a monopoly-like tacit understanding was gradually formed among the Dongtian monks, and the already extremely rare Dongtian method slowly became more common. Extinct in the world."
Gu Qingcheng nodded slightly and said: "Mr. Rong is right. That monopoly and tacit understanding has been maintained to this day. However, although the land gods are very powerful, when they finally run out of power, it is also because of the very restrictive conditions for entering the cave. Two thousand years In the history of , many Dongtian forces have also disappeared in the long river of history, and there are also many new top forces at the Dongtian level that have gained inheritance and emerged.
For example, the Gu family began to exist more than 1,500 years ago. It developed step by step with ups and downs. By 800 years ago, it had become a big family in Qingzhou. The ancestors rose from a down-and-out Dongtian force by chance. After seizing the method of the cave, the Gu family spent decades cultivating the first land immortal in the cave, making the Gu family the first-class family in the world, and the tacit understanding of hiding the secret of the cave also appeared in the Gu family . "
Rong Yichu frowned and said: "Miss Gu Qi, I have a doubt. Although all the major Dongtian forces have a tacit agreement to monopolize the secrets of the Dongtian, over the past two thousand years of historical changes, many Dongtian-level forces have declined. As for the fact that no news has spread, right?"
Gu Qingcheng chuckled and said: "Mr. Rong, just like now that the Marquis has destroyed Sword King City, are you sure that you can find the method of Dongtian? In other words, do you know in what form the method of Dongtian exists?"
Rong Yichu was slightly startled and said: "This... is because I habitually thought it was a document or a jade slip conveying martial arts."
Gu Qingcheng smiled and said: "Each Dongtian method is inherited in a different form. My ancestor of the Gu family was able to obtain the Dongtian method because the wife he married was an inheritor of the declining Dongtian forces. Otherwise, even if he is Dongtian Even my ancestors might not be able to recognize the method before their eyes.
This is also the reason why Emperor Yu Yang and the royal family of the Seven Kingdoms burned a large number of ancient books and documents, because there were some clues and traces of the cave method in those ancient books and documents. Now, after so many years, they must not be found. The inheritance method of that era must be the same as We are different now. "
Rong Yichu cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Miss Gu Qi, for your guidance. I've learned a lesson now!"
Gu Zhan took a sip of tea, slowly put down the cup, and asked: "Miss Gu Qi, in recent years, the major cave-level forces must have also thought about tracing the origin of the cave-heaven method, right?"
Gu Qingcheng nodded and said: "This is inevitable. Not to mention that the method of Dongtian represents another system of practice. Simply saying that Dongtian can increase longevity is enough for people to pursue it."
"Have you found anything?" Gu Zhan asked.
Miss Gu Qi frowned slightly and said: "Master Hou, this goes back to what I said at the beginning, where does the cave sky realm come from, who created it, and what is above the cave sky. In fact, we don't know these things. It’s clear, at least our Gu family doesn’t know anything about it.”
Gu Qingcheng was a little worried that Gu Zhan would misunderstand, so he hurriedly said: "Master Hou, it's not that Qingcheng is hiding anything, but the Gu family's Dongtian inheritance only lasts a few hundred years, and it's not that strong among the Dongtian forces. What they know is really limited. Please forgive me, Lord Marquis!"
Gu Zhan chuckled and said, "Miss Gu Qi said something serious, and I am also curious."
Gu Qingcheng said: "Actually, the major cave heaven forces will also communicate with each other. For example, when my Gu family was still in Qingzhou, we had relationships with Sword King City, Yijianmen, Dao Pavilion, Dugu Clan, and Ling Family. There will also be some discussions during the exchanges.
I'm not sure about the others, but I know that these families don't necessarily know much more than my Gu family, and after discussions among the families, there are some speculations. "
Gu Zhan raised his eyebrows and said, "I would like to hear the details."
Gu Qingcheng held the teacup and thought for a while, then said: "Because each family has a long history, and if you look back on history, you will find some things that are difficult to explain. For example, my ancestor encountered a bird more than a hundred years ago. A talking fox?”
Gu Zhan and Rong Yichu both looked surprised.
"A talking fox?" Gu Zhan frowned.
Gu Qingcheng nodded slightly and said: "It may be a bit unbelievable to say that my ancestor was also a little unsure about this matter, because he was not sure whether he was under an illusion or inhaling miasma and had hallucinations.
At that time, my ancestor was not a land god, but a great master. He was hunted down, was seriously injured, fled into a mountain, and lost his way. He met a talking fox who sent him out of the mountain.
Later, after he recovered from his injury, he could never find that place or meet the fox again. Therefore, he also suspected that he might have hallucinated due to his serious injury, or that there was an expert secretly doing it. Help.
As for this similar inability to discern the true situation, there are also related rumors among major forces, and it is difficult to explain. Therefore, they speculate based on this kind of thing, thinking that the method of cave heaven may be an ancient practice method.
There is no way to find out how far that era is from now. However, it is basically certain that that era should be a great spiritual world far beyond the present. However, it is possible that something suddenly happened in that era, causing the emergence of If there is a fault, it may also be due to the great changes in heaven and earth that lead to the advent of the Age of Ending Dharma. After all, this world is a matter of the vitality of heaven and earth. According to the method of cave heaven, there is no way to practice. And as time goes by, practice will disappear in time. In the long river, it was not until the emergence of martial arts that spiritual practice reappeared. "
Gu Zhan frowned and said: "You mean, the method of Dongtian is a complete system of practice? It is a system that must rely on spiritual energy to practice..."
Before I finished speaking,
Gu Zhan suddenly frowned, raised his head abruptly, with a trace of anger on his face, and whispered: "If you don't come early, you won't come later, but why come at this time? Isn't it really a spoiler of interest?"
Gu Qingcheng and Rong Yichu both looked puzzled.
Rong Yichu asked: "Lord, what's wrong?"
Gu Zhan waved his hand and said, "There are two uninvited guests coming to Yiling City. Forget it, Miss Gu Qi, please wait here for a while and I will come back as soon as I can."
Gu Qingcheng asked doubtfully: "Master Hou, is this what you want?"
Gu Zhan stood up, picked up the horizontal sword and stepped out. He said calmly: "It's a small matter. Miss Gu Qi has a few cups of tea first. I'll go kill two land gods. I'll come back as soon as I go!"
After all,
Gu Zhan stood a little below his feet, soared into the sky, and disappeared into the night.
Seeing Gu Zhan disappear, Gu Qingcheng was stunned for a moment.
Suddenly, she was shocked: "Could it be Wei Wuya and Granny Honghua who came to Yiling City?"
Rong Yichu narrowed his eyes and said: "If Granny Honghua can't defeat Wei Wuya, in the land of Yunxi now, only the Lord has a chance of survival. Even if she doesn't know that the Lord killed the old Heavenly Master, I also know the name of my lord, the greatest master in the world, as well as the identities of Marquis Yun and the General of the Army, so it is very likely that they are here, and now there are only these two land gods in Yunxi!"
Gu Qingcheng naturally understood this truth.
After Gu Zhan's reputation as the best master in the world spread, many people suspected that he had mastered a new method of cultivation and now had imperial status. With these two points alone, he might not be able to save Granny Honghua, but this It's the only hope.
but,
The corners of Gu Qingcheng's mouth twitched slightly,
Isn't that what I'm surprised about?
What surprised me was Gu Zhan!
What did he just say?
Kill two land gods and come back as soon as you go?
"Is it so careless to kill land gods now?"
Rong Yichu chuckled and said, "My master... um, Miss Gu Qi, um... just get used to it!"
…
Outside Yiling City, among the mountains and fields,
There are two figures that are moving back and forth quickly. These two figures are so fast that they can cross ravines and jungles, and deep mountains and canyons in just one step in the blink of an eye. Not to mention in this night, even in the daytime, it is difficult for ordinary people to catch the traces. .
Because these two people are both land gods, it is Granny Honghua, the founder of the Demonic Way, and Wei Wuya, the master of Sword King City.
at this time,
Grandma Honghua jumped down from a cliff, like a meteor falling, very quickly. While in the air, she saw the city in the distance lit up with scattered lights.
That was Yiling City, and it was also her last hope of escape.
She didn't know what the situation in Yiling City was like now, but she didn't have many choices.
She tightly covered the wound on her chest. The blood was still oozing out, and wisps of evil energy were turbulent. The evil energy was so evil that it was entangled in her body. Even if she was a land god, she could not stop the bleeding. Not to mention healing.
And Wei Wuya didn't give her a chance to treat her injuries.
She never thought that one day she would be chased by a junior from Shiwanda Mountain, but this thing really happened.
Thinking back to what happened two days ago,
She is full of regret now,
If he hadn't been more vigilant at that time, he wouldn't be in such a mess now.
Two days ago,
Wei Wuya, one man and one sword, entered the main tank of the Moon Worship Sect.
Mother-in-law Honghua knew that her boxing was afraid of young people, so she did not look down upon Wei Wuya. Instead, she mobilized the followers of the Moon Worship Sect to activate the mountain guard formation to surround and kill Wei Wuya. Even if they could not kill him, they could still consume him.
At that time, Grandma Honghua thought that she could easily take advantage of the home field advantage to take advantage of a junior who had just entered the cave world.
However, just when Granny Honghua thought that Wei Wuya had run out of spiritual energy, she took action personally. However, she never thought that Wei Wuya was not relying on spiritual energy at all. When he saw Granny Honghua's end, he immediately broke out and pulled Granny Honghua into the formation. , if Granny Honghua hadn't been alert, that sword could have directly killed Granny Honghua.
And Granny Honghua is also very decisive,
Knowing that Wei Wuya had plotted against him, he immediately escaped and ran away without any hesitation.
However, the cave heaven realm has great limitations. When reconnecting, the spiritual energy will only be consumed and cannot be replenished. Therefore, Granny Honghua knows that she cannot run far, and Wei Wuya is chasing closely. Even if the spiritual energy problem is eliminated, She couldn't run too far even though she was seriously injured.
So, she put her last chance of survival in Yiling City.
Although she has never appeared in the arena, she is also aware of the current situation in Yunxi, and she also knows who Gu Zhan is at the height of his power.
But until now,
In fact, she doesn't have much confidence anymore.
Because she knew very well that Wei Wuya went to Shiwanda Mountain to kill her, which meant that the Heavenly Master would most likely come down the mountain to find Gu Zhan.
After all, Gu Zhan didn't have enough knowledge, and he couldn't have the magic array to deal with the land gods. Therefore, the possibility of Gu Zhan being able to defeat the old Heavenly Master was too low.
However, she still had some hope,
Maybe Gu Zhan has really mastered a new method of cultivation, has really broken the limits of martial arts, entered an unknown new realm of martial arts, and made the master of heaven fail?
With this hope, she ran desperately to Yiling City. By now, the spiritual energy stored in her body had been almost exhausted.
And at this time,
Wei Wuya was still chasing after him.
However, Wei Wuya seemed to be teasing Granny Honghua. He kept following Granny Honghua, keeping a fixed distance.
Grandma Honghua has always been suspicious,
Dragging a seriously injured body, she was able to escape from Shiwandashan to Yiling City without being exposed all the time. This was because Wei Wuya had done it intentionally.
Actually,
Wei Wuya did do it on purpose.
Of course it wasn't to tease Grandma Honghua, but because of Gu Zhan.
At the beginning, he was indeed pursuing Granny Honghua with all his strength, but later on, after discovering Granny Honghua’s intentions, he became less anxious.
Because Granny Honghua was seriously injured and her spiritual energy was almost exhausted, it was no longer a worry. He had to fight with Granny Honghua at this time. Although he was seriously injured, a land god who fought to the death with sufficient spiritual energy still survived. Can cause a lot of trouble.
In this case, Wei Wuya decided that it would be better to let Granny Honghua consume herself until she died. Anyway, he wanted to visit Yiling City, and if the Heavenly Master had already dealt with the matter in Yiling City, then Granny Honghua would It's the same as throwing yourself into a trap, and if the Heavenly Master hasn't dealt with Gu Zhan yet, it would be a good thing for him to come as soon as possible!
…
Two figures walked through the night,
One chasing and one escaping,
In the blink of an eye, he rushed outside Yiling City.
As far as the eye can see, the fields are in a mess, there are potholes everywhere, and the city walls are also broken, and large areas have collapsed. It is obvious that they have experienced a battle between masters.
"Already finished?"
In an instant,
Wei Wuya and Granny Honghua were both frightened.
And just as the two of them were speculating on the outcome, a terrifying pressure suddenly surged out of Yiling City as fiercely as the turbulence of the sea.
Immediately afterwards, a figure descended from the sky, standing on the city gate, with a bright horizontal knife inserted at the top of the city.
When you see clearly who is coming,
Wei Wuya quickly stopped and stood outside the city. He winced and said slowly: "Gu Zhan!"
Hearing this name,
Grandma Honghua was both surprised and happy. At that moment, she felt the joy of escaping and her spirit became very excited. She stepped on her feet and rushed towards Gu Zhan quickly, shouting: "Gu Zhan, I am worshiping the moon." Teach Grandma Honghua, you and I will join forces to kill Wei Wuya, and from now on in Yunxi, you and I will rule and divide it equally!"
Under the city wall, Wei Wuya did not move.
On the city wall, Gu Zhan moved,
He suddenly jumped forward, his figure was as fast as tearing apart the space, and he appeared directly in front of Granny Honghua. Then, under Granny Honghua's surprised eyes, he kicked Granny Honghua in the chest.
There was a loud "Peng" sound, accompanied by a huge impact of force. Granny Honghua's sternum was shattered, and a mouthful of blood spurted out from her mouth. Her whole body fell directly from the sky and hit the ground, sinking deeply. She panicked Struggling to get up.
And in that moment,
Gu Zhan fell from the sky and stepped on Granny Honghua's chest with "Peng"'s foot, pushing Granny Honghua who had just climbed up from the soil into the soil again.
"puff"
Grandma Honghua spurted out another mouthful of blood, looked at the calm-faced Gu Zhan in disbelief, and struggled: "You...you...why...Gu Zhan...I...we have something in common... enemy……"
Gu Zhan stepped on Granny Honghua without even looking at her. Instead, he looked straight ahead and looked at Wei Wuya.
The rejuvenated Wei Wuya is completely different from the image of the old man with white hair and white beard in his impression. In the past, Wei Wuya gave Gu Zhan the impression of being an immortal, but now he looks like an evil young master.
Wei Wuya glanced at the red-flowered granny at Gu Zhan's feet, with a hint of contempt on his young face, and smiled: "You really have no self-awareness, why do you think you are qualified to rule Yunxi with Gu Zhan? "
Grandma Honghua was lying in the mud and looked at Gu Zhan with wide eyes, with a look of disbelief on her face.
She didn't believe that the reason why Gu Zhan attacked her was because of those words.
At this moment, Gu Zhan chuckled lightly and said, "Yeah, I don't have any self-awareness at all."
Grandma Honghua was frightened and said in a panic: "Gu Zhan...I..."
Suddenly, the sound stopped,
Gu Zhan crushed Granny Honghua's head with his foot, and blood spurted out from her brain.
[Experience value + 1.2 billion]
Hearing the system prompt, Gu Zhan chuckled and said, "Headmaster Wei is such a good person. He traveled thousands of miles to give me such a great gift!"
As he spoke, Gu Zhan stretched out his hand to explore, and the horizontal knife on the city wall flew towards him.
Wei Wuya looked confused.
Gu Zhan held the Hengdao and said slowly: "In order to thank Master Wei for the generous gift, I will send you on your way now!"
