"Zizzizi..."

Beside Gu Sheng, lotus seed vines were slowly squirming, and their target was a dragon-bone golden snake.

The golden snake, wrapped in vines, turned into bones at a speed visible to the naked eye, which was horrifying.

Gu Sheng was frightened and hurriedly urged Vajra Demon Suppressing Bell, but strangely, the big clock did not respond this time.

He tried to sacrifice Demon Suppressing Golden Scroll, but his body was restrained by vines and he could not move at all.

Just when Gu Sheng was about to despair, a sudden change occurred.

The vines that were dragging him forward actually prostrated themselves on the ground as they passed by the lotus leaves, as if they had met their king.

Immediately afterwards, Vajra Demon Suppressing Bell flourished with golden light, and swastika characters flowed out one by one, exuding endless vitality.

These vitalities continuously poured into the big bell, gradually transforming it into a golden seed.

What's even more amazing is that the vine that bound Gu Sheng gradually turned into cyan vitality, which was quickly absorbed by the golden seeds.

As the vitality of the vine was sucked dry, the golden seeds became more and more dazzling, and finally cracked open, and a green lotus seedling grew out of it, full of vitality.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

The rumbling bells echoed in the valley, making this mysterious and strange scene even more heart-stopping.

Gu Sheng was sweating profusely. He didn't come back to his senses until the vines that bound him disappeared and the fallen lotus leaves stood upright again.

He was surprised to find that Vajra Demon Suppressing Bell had returned to its original state, as if nothing had ever happened.

Gu Sheng's heart was filled with joy.

He understood that this Vajra Demon Suppressing Bell was originally a seed of Chaos Green Lotus. Now he got a wisp of chaotic vitality in Green Lotus Secluded Valley, which was finally activated and gave birth to a green lotus seedling.

This is undoubtedly a great adventure for him on the road of spiritual practice, and it also adds infinite possibilities to his future path.

Gu Sheng couldn't wait to open the martial arts panel and found an additional option:

Demon soul: Chaos Green Lotus.

"Is this the legendary demon soul?"

Later Gu Sheng has read many fantasy novels and knows that there are demon souls in many fantasy worlds. Only those geniuses with super powerful talents can activate demon souls.

I didn't expect that I also have a demon soul!

"It seems that the qualifications are not very bad!" Gu Sheng murmured.

Since Green Lotus Secluded Valley returned, Gu Sheng's heart has been filled with mystery and joy. He held Vajra Demon Suppressing Bell in his hand, feeling the chaotic vitality contained in it, and was full of expectations for the future.

The peaceful days did not last long.

One day, Crown Prince Crown Prince Yun Tingyu personally came to visit and sincerely invited Gu Sheng to come to the palace for a chat.

Gu Sheng was moved in his heart, and said secretly, "This His Highness the Crown Prince must have an agenda."

Crown Prince Yun Tingyu smiled broadly, but could not hide the deep meaning in his eyes.

He got straight to the point. "Brother Gu, you have become famous in the Shengdan Sect, and I admire you very much. I wonder if you would be willing to help me?"

Gu Sheng nodded slightly and said, "His Highness the Crown Prince I'm serious. I'm just lucky. If you can find a place for me, just ask."

A hint of joy flashed in Crown Prince Yun Tingyu's eyes, but he changed the subject and said, "Brother Gu, do you know that Princess Zishuang is not as innocent as she appears? She has deep intentions and ruthless methods, so you must be careful."

Gu Sheng was moved in his heart, but did not show any emotion.

He smiled and said, "His Highness the Crown Prince, you are worrying too much. I have no close relationship with Her Highness the Princess. As long as you abide by your duties, it won't be a big deal."

Crown Prince Yun Tingyu heard this, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he said unwillingly:

"Brother Gu, if you can stand by my side, how about you and I co-ruling this great Liang Kingdom world in the future?"

Gu Sheng sneered in his heart and said to himself, "This His Highness the Crown Prince is really ambitious and wants to win me over for his use."

His face remained calm as he said, "His Highness the Crown Prince I'm exaggerating. I'm just a cultivator and have no intention of fighting in court. I only wish to succeed in my cultivation and protect the peace of the great Liang Kingdom."

Crown Prince Yun Tingyu saw Gu Sheng's firm attitude and said no more. Although he felt unwilling to do so, he also knew that he could not force it.

The two chatted for a few more words and then dispersed.

Not long after returning to the Saint Pill Sect, Gu Sheng received another invitation from Princess Zishuang.

He was confused in his heart, wondering what else the princess had to discuss.

Arriving at the palace, Princess Zishuang had been waiting for a long time.

When she saw Gu Sheng, a complicated look flashed in her eyes.

She got straight to the point. "Gu Sheng, the great Liang Kingdom is about to send troops to deal with the Great Chu Kingdom's war of aggression. I would like to ask you to go with the army."

Gu Sheng heard this, and his heart moved.

He knew that this was his opportunity to serve his country and a good time to test his strength.

Considering that the demon soul was recently activated, Gu Sheng gained a little more confidence. He nodded without hesitation and said, "Your Highness, I am willing to go out with the army and do my best for the great Liang Kingdom."

Princess Zishuang flashed a hint of appreciation in his eyes and said, "Okay, you have indeed lived up to my expectations of you. This trip is dangerous, so you need to be careful."

Gu Sheng felt grateful and said, "Thank you for your concern, Princess. I will do my best to fulfill my mission."

The two discussed some more details and then dispersed.

Gu Sheng was full of expectations and excitement. He knew that he was about to embark on a journey full of challenges and opportunities.

There are still a few days left before the national war. In the past few days, Gu Sheng did not practice in the Saint Pill Sect, but went to the World of Warcraft Forest.

Generally, only the strong Marrow Refining Realm dare to enter this kind of forest.

Gu Sheng As a warrior of the Peak Gold Bone Realm, he is confident that he has the strength to enter such a place.

Gu Sheng stepped into the World of Warcraft forest alone, and the scene in front of him was like a dream.

The towering ancient trees Shrouding the Heavens block out the sun, and their luxuriant branches and leaves seem to swallow up the whole world.

The sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves, forming dappled light and shadow, giving people a mysterious feeling.

"This place is indeed extraordinary, the aura of monsters and beasts is so strong.

"Gu Sheng whispered, his eyes like a torch, scanning the surrounding trees.

"Boom!"

At this moment, a tiger roar sounded, causing the leaves to fall.

Gu Sheng looked up and saw a Peak Gold Bone Realm Phantom Saber-toothed Tiger jumping out of the dense forest, with a sharp light shining in its eyes.

"What a tiger!"

Gu Sheng praised, while Green Vine Demonic Soul between his eyebrows trembled slightly, showing strong interest.

"Ouch~"

Phantom Saber-toothed Tiger roared and lunged towards Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng did not retreat but advanced, Thirstblood Battle Axe's golden light flashed in his hand, and he faced off against the tiger.

"Bang!"

With a loud noise, the ax and claw collided together, causing a wave of air.

Gu Sheng felt a huge force coming from him, and his body involuntarily stepped back.

"This beast is so powerful!"

Gu Sheng was secretly shocked, adjusting his breathing and preparing to attack again.

But Phantom Saber-toothed Tiger cunningly turned into a phantom, passing by Gu Sheng and heading straight into the depths of the forest.

Gu Sheng felt anxious when he saw this, and was about to catch up when he suddenly felt a strange energy pouring out of his body.

"Master, I'll hold it back, come quickly!"

Green Vine Demonic Soul's voice sounded in Gu Sheng's mind.

Gu Sheng was stunned for a moment and then understood.

Without any time to think, he quickly activated the demon soul, and saw the ivy turned into a green light, instantly catching up with Phantom Saber-toothed Tiger and getting into its belly.

"Ouch~"

Phantom Saber-toothed Tiger was in pain, let out a thunderous roar, and shook his body wildly, trying to throw Green Vine Demonic Soul out.

Green Vine Demonic Soul, however, clung to it like a gangrene attached to its bones, constantly gnawing at its internal organs.

Gu Sheng was overjoyed when he saw this, and took the opportunity to chase after him.

He held Thirstblood Battle Axe tightly, used Twelve Vajra Axes with all his strength, and struck Phantom Saber-toothed Tiger in the back with an axe.

"Bang!"

There was another loud noise, and Phantom Saber-toothed Tiger's huge body was knocked to the ground by Gu Sheng's axe.

Just when Gu Sheng thought victory was in sight, Phantom Saber-toothed Tiger suddenly turned into a phantom and escaped from Gu Sheng's axe.

"This... how is this possible!"

Gu Sheng stared dumbfoundedly at the direction Phantom Saber-toothed Tiger was escaping from, feeling filled with reluctance.

At this moment, a childish girl's voice sounded, it was Green Vine Demonic Soul's voice:

"Master, don't panic, I have eaten all its internal organs and it is at the end of its crossbow. You only need to give it one more blow to kill it."

When Gu Sheng heard this, he felt happy, quickly adjusted his state, and chased Phantom Saber-toothed Tiger again.

After a fierce battle, Gu Sheng finally found Phantom Saber-toothed Tiger's flaw and chopped off his head with an axe.

"Finally got rid of this beast!"

Gu Sheng took a long breath, with a tired yet satisfied smile on his face.

Green Vine Demonic Soul flew out of Phantom Saber-toothed Tiger's body and began to eat its flesh crazily.

After half a day, the entire Phantom Saber-toothed Tiger was eaten by it.

After finishing eating, Green Vine Demonic Soul became extremely active. It flew to Gu Sheng and said:

"Master, I feel like I'm about to complete my first mutation.

I only need to swallow ten more Gold Bone Realm level monsters, and I will be able to transform into a more powerful force. "

Gu Sheng was very excited when he heard this.

After a conversation with Green Vine Demonic Soul, Gu Sheng knew that Green Vine Demonic Soul has huge potential. Once the mutation is completed, it will definitely bring greater help to itself.

"Okay! I'm going to look for more monsters right now!"

Gu Sheng said, then took steps towards the depths of the forest.

In the following days, Gu Sheng searched for monsters everywhere, constantly devouring their blood essence and energy.

He encountered Silver Fox, Mystic Rabbit, flying monkeys and other monsters, and he gained a lot from every battle.

As time goes by, the strength of Gu Sheng is also constantly improving.

He could clearly feel the growth of strength in his body and the transformation of Green Vine Demonic Soul.

Crimson Cloud Continent, the storm is rising.

The war between the Great Chu Kingdom and the big Liang Kingdom is like a sharp sword hanging in the hearts of everyone, which may fall at any time.

In this tense atmosphere, major families and sects began to prepare for the national war.

Wu Family and Zhou Family, the two power giants in the no-man's land, have already decided to support the Qi State and jointly resist the Chu State's invasion.

Mad Saber Sect followed closely behind, showing a firm stance.

The so-called no man's land is an area without government. Each family cultivates warriors to protect themselves and pass them on from generation to generation.

Liang Kingdom and Qi, as staunch allies, also decided to jointly send troops to combat Chu's aggression.

The two countries joining forces will inevitably make Chu pay a heavy price.

The venue for the swearing-in meeting is located at the border between the Liang Kingdom and the Chu State.

Here, the soldiers of Liang and Qi gathered together with great momentum.

Qi Emperor Jiang Yuanlong and Chu Emperor Emperor Yun Wu also attended in person to witness this grand event.

Above the venue, flags were flying and war drums were beating to the sky.

Soldiers from all countries are in high spirits and high in fighting spirit.

They know that this battle is related to the country's honor and future, and there is no room for sloppiness.

Jiang Yuanlong stood on the high platform, his eyes like torches, scanning the soldiers below. His voice was loud and powerful, echoing throughout the venue:

"Today, we are gathered here to discuss national affairs. The Chu State is unkind and has repeatedly violated our borders.

This national war is an opportunity for our country to feel proud. I want you to work together to fight the national crisis and let Chu State know that our Qi State is not easy to mess with! "

Emperor Yun Wu also said proudly:

"Brother Jiang, you and I are allies. In this national war, we, the Chu State, will fully support the Qi State. Let us join hands and create glory together!"

The heroic words of the two emperors aroused the enthusiasm of everyone present.

They chanted slogans one after another and vowed to fight for the country and fight for honor.

At this exciting moment, the disciples of the Saint Pill Sect also rushed to the venue one after another. Gu Sheng, Lin Miaomiao, Huang Miaoyin, Chu Haoran, Mo Buwen and others are all the best in the sect. In this national war, they also mobilized in full force.

Gu Sheng, dressed in Tsing Yi, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, has an outstanding temperament.

He stood in the crowd, his eyes as sharp as knives, as if he could see through all illusions.

At this time, a woman in purple came slowly.

She has a beautiful face and noble temperament. She is the Princess Zishuang of the country.

"Gu Sheng, do you know your mission during this national war?" Princess Zishuang's voice was cold and firm.

Gu Sheng nodded slightly and said, "Princess, don't worry, I have my own sense of proportion. In this national war, I will do my best to protect our country's territory."

Princess Zishuang looked at Gu Sheng, with a trace of worry in his eyes. "The Chu State is powerful, and this national war will probably be a fierce battle. Are you confident?"

Gu Sheng smiled slightly and said, "Princess, don't worry. My disciples, Saint Pill Sect, are all accomplished practitioners. We will definitely shine in this national war."

The words were loud, but Gu Sheng was not full.

Princess Zishuang Hearing this, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.

She knew that with Gu Sheng and others here, it would not be easy for Chu State to win easily.

At this time, at the venue, Linghu Qingwan and other beautiful disciples from various sects also showed off their heroic demeanor.

They stand with swords in hand, or draw arrows with bows. Every movement is full of power and beauty.

There are many proud figures in the crowd, especially Lin Tianhao from the Haoyang Sect. He is dressed in white and has an extraordinary temperament.

He stood in the crowd, like a bright sunshine, attracting many eyes.

Gu Sheng looked at Lin Tianhao, a smile flashed in his eyes. He knows that Lin Tianhao is his friend and his competitor. In this national war, they will fight side by side and write a legend together.

With the end of the swearing-in meeting, the prelude to the national war slowly began.

Every corner on the Crimson Cloud Continent is full of tension and expectation.

The venue for the swearing-in meeting was filled with people and war drums.

Gu Sheng's eyes were sharp, and in the bustling crowd, his sight caught a familiar figure - Gu Xiaojiang.

Gu Xiaojiang, the fellow from Canghe County, is standing in the crowd at the moment, with excitement shining in his eyes.
