The two people's attacks collided with the green light beam, causing a loud noise.

The result this time was different from before.

Under the joint attack of Gu Sheng and Shangguan Yudie, the green light beam was disintegrated bit by bit.

The old man with a scepter had a look of surprise on his face. He didn't expect that these two juniors could break through his attack.

What surprised him even more was that as the green light pillar disintegrated, an even more terrifying energy burst out from Gu Sheng and Shangguan Yudie.

That was the powerful energy they released after perfectly merging each other's powers in the state of dual cultivation.

"Not good!"

The old man with a scepter was shocked. He knew that he had been careless.

He quickly activated Jade Scepter, trying to resist this energy.

It's too late.

The energy that Gu Sheng and Shangguan Yudie jointly emitted surged in like a scourge, instantly drowning the old man with the scepter.

When the energy dissipated, the old man with the scepter was seen lying on the ground, his breath weak.

Gu Sheng and Shangguan Yudie supported each other and stood up, with victory smiles on their faces.

"We won!" Gu Sheng said with a smile, his eyes filled with gratitude to Shangguan Yudie.

Shangguan Yudie gently nestled in Gu Sheng's arms, with a happy blush on his face.

She knew that the victory at this moment was the result of the two of them working together.

After defeating the Old Man with the Scepter, Gu Sheng and Shangguan Yudie took a short rest before embarking on a journey to explore the seven dragon mountains.

These seven dragon mountains stand tall and towering, surrounded by dragon energy, as if there is some mysterious force guarding them.

Gu Sheng sacrificed Green Vine Demonic Soul and asked him to carefully study Eight Trigrams Array, the center of the seven dragon guards.

Green Vine Demonic Soul slowly floated out, and the vines stretched out, swimming like a spiritual snake on Eight Trigrams Array, exploring the mysteries.

Shangguan Yudie looked at Gu Sheng's focused expression and asked softly:

"Brother Sheng, is this Eight Trigrams Array really that powerful? Can we crack it?"

Gu Sheng retracted his gaze, smiled slightly, and said, "This Eight Trigrams Array is indeed mysterious, but as long as we work together, we will be able to crack it. Yu Die, do you believe me?"

Shangguan Yudie nodded, with a firm light shining in his eyes, and said:

"I believe in you, Brother Sheng. No matter what difficulties we encounter, we will face it together."

The two looked at each other, smiling lightly, their hearts filled with tacit understanding and trust.

They know that there is still a long way to go, but as long as they rely on each other, they can overcome all difficulties.

At this time, night fell, and the two decided to find a place to rest.

Gu Sheng handed over the work of researching Eight Trigrams Array to Green Vine Demonic Soul, and he and Shangguan Yudie built a bonfire and started barbecue.

"Yu Die, these Suanni Beast meats are good things. Not only are they delicious, they can also enhance our cultivation."

Gu Sheng said while flipping the barbecue.

Shangguan Yudie Hearing this, a trace of curiosity flashed in his eyes.

Said: "Suanni Beast? That is a legendary beast. We can actually eat its meat?"

Gu Sheng smiled and said, "Yes, this is also our opportunity. But most of the meat was refined and absorbed by Ivy, and it is now our right-hand man."

The two chatted and enjoyed the food, their happy smiles reflected in the firelight.

After eating and drinking, the two began to explore the seven-seater Sacred Mountain.

They collected some Spirit Gathering Grass and spirit-gathering fruits. These spiritual grasses and spiritual fruits contained rich spiritual energy, which were of great benefit to their practice.

During the collection process, they also discovered the divine liquid at the corner of the golden dragon's mouth.

This divine liquid is crystal clear and exudes a faint light, as if it contains some mysterious power.

"Brother Sheng, this divine liquid looks magical. How should we use it?"

Shangguan Yudie asked curiously.

Gu Sheng pondered for a moment, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and said, "This divine liquid is condensed from the essence of the golden dragon. If we can refine and absorb it, we may be able to improve our cultivation and strengthen our strength."

Hearing this, Shangguan Yudie also had a look of expectation in her eyes. She nodded, sat cross-legged with Gu Sheng, and dropped the divine liquid into her mouth.

When the divine liquid entered the body, it immediately turned into streams of pure energy, flowing through the meridians of the two people, nourishing their bodies and souls. Gu Sheng felt a powerful force surging inside his body, as if it was about to burst his body.

What is strange is that all the essence absorbed by Gu Sheng was converted into golden physical strength, but his cultivation level did not improve as a result. He seemed to be bound by some kind of power and stayed at the Peak Gold Bone Realm forever.

But Shangguan Yudie's situation is completely different. Under the nourishment of the divine liquid, her cultivation actually broke through a small realm and her strength increased greatly.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and Green Vine Demonic Soul had thoroughly studied the Eight Trigrams Array guarded by the seven dragons.

After searching many times among the seven Sacred Mountains, the other six Dragon Pearls were not found.

Gu Sheng looked at the Seven Dragons Eight Trigrams Array in his hand, smiled bitterly, and said, "We have worked hard, but we only got one Seven Dragons Eight Trigrams Array. This is a bit disappointing."

Seeing this, Shangguan Yudie quickly comforted, "Brother Sheng, you don't have to be like this. Although these seven dragons Eight Trigrams Array may seem ordinary, they actually contain powerful power. If we can use them properly, we will definitely be able to exert wonderful effects, even if we can defeat many with one."

Gu Sheng Hearing this, his heart moved, and he nodded,

Said: "You are right, we cannot lose confidence because of the gains and losses in front of us. This Seven Dragons Eight Trigrams Array may be our trump card in the future. We must study it carefully."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and the sense of loss in their hearts dissipated.

Gu Sheng and Shangguan Yudie sadly left the secret realm of Chu's treasures. They couldn't find more Dragon Pearl, and they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

They didn't know that it was this action that triggered a series of changes in Chu State.

Without two Dragon Pearl, the Chu Kingdom's royal training ground suddenly became thinner in spiritual energy. The originally rich training environment now only has five-sevenths of its power.

Emperor Chu Tianshu, the leader of the Chu royal family, was furious when he felt the changes in the training ground. He vowed to find out the truth and find out the mastermind behind it.

After some investigation, Emperor Chu Tianshu discovered the illusion record in the secret realm, which clearly showed the figure of Gu Sheng.

He immediately became furious and listed Gu Sheng as a public enemy of the royal family and a public enemy of the Chu State, and vowed to capture and bring him to justice.

Gu Sheng and Shangguan Yudie have left long ago and their whereabouts are unknown.

But the visions of Chu State began to happen one after another.

The originally lush vegetation has now begun to wither, and patches of greenery have gradually disappeared, replaced by withering and withering.

The rivers have also begun to dry up, and the originally rushing water has now become thin and weak, as if telling the sorrow of the earth.

The animals also began to have disordered work and rest, and day and night were no longer distinct. They ran around in a panic, as if looking for a safe refuge.

The land of Chu State seemed to have become desolate and strange overnight.

People started to panic and talk a lot, not knowing what the cause of all these visions was.

"What should we do? The Chu Kingdom has always had good weather, how could such a strange phenomenon happen now?" an old man said worriedly.

"Yes, I heard that it was because Gu Sheng stole Dragon Pearl, which caused the spiritual energy to become thin, which triggered this series of changes." A person next to him whispered.

"Gu Sheng? That rumored genius boy? Why did he do this?" the old man asked in confusion.

"Who knows? Maybe it's for your own selfish interests.

It's a pity that with all his talent, he ended up on such a path. "The other person sighed.

Emperor Chu Tianshu Standing on the top of the palace, looking at the various strange phenomena on the land of Chu, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.

He knew that all this happened because of Gu Sheng, and he had to find him and seek justice for Chu State.

Gu Sheng and Shangguan Yudie have left Chu State, and their whereabouts have become a mystery.

Emperor Chu Tianshu knew that this would be a long hunt, but he was already prepared to capture Gu Sheng no matter where in the world he was.

Princess Zishuang made an appointment with Gu Sheng in the splendid palace. Her eyes were shining with a strange light, as if she had some deep meaning.

"Gu Sheng, you really did not disappoint me. You successfully captured Dragon Pearl and cut off part of Chu State's Dragon Vein."

Princess Zishuang's voice is clear and sweet, but with a hint of unquestionable majesty.

Gu Sheng smiled slightly and said, "Princess is too flattering, she just took one Dragon Pearl."

However, Princess Zishuang changed the topic.

Said: "But according to the report from Tanma, Chu State lost two Dragon Pearl, not one. Since you have taken one, are you willing to give me the other Dragon Pearl?"

Gu Sheng felt something in his heart. He knew that the princess was well-informed, but she didn't expect that she was so well-informed.

He knew that Princess Zishuang's cultivation strength was unfathomable, so he was naturally coveted for this rare treasure.

However, he had already handed over Dragon Pearl to Qingteng for refining, and he could only say helplessly at this moment:

"Princess, I'm really sorry, that Dragon Pearl has been refined by Ivy and can no longer be given to the princess."

Princess Zishuang Hearing this, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he soon regained his composure.

She chuckled and said, "If that's the case, then that's it. Gu Sheng, what kind of reward do you want for your great achievements this time?"

Gu Sheng was silent for a moment and said, "Princess, I have nothing to ask for. I only hope that Shangguan Yudie can follow me."

Princess Zishuang frowned slightly when he heard this and said, "Yu Die is a maid in my house, how can you give it to someone so easily? You are too open-minded."

Gu Sheng felt tight in his heart, but he did not give up and said:

"Princess, I have great respect for Miss Yu Die, and I am willing to treat you sincerely. Please do it, Princess."

Princess Zishuang looked at Gu Sheng's firm eyes and couldn't help but feel a little shaken in his heart.

She teased, "Gu Sheng, you are so quick to fall in love with Yu Die so quickly? Why am I not so lucky?"

Gu Sheng felt a little embarrassed when he heard this and didn't know how to answer.

Princess Zishuang laughed when he saw this and said:

"That's all, since you are so persistent, then I will grant it to you. However, Yu Die is the maid in my house, I cannot give it to you directly. But I can let her go to you often to convey my tasks. If you behave well, I may consider giving her to you in the future."

Gu Sheng was overjoyed and quickly thanked, "Thank you so much, princess!"

Princess Zishuang looked directly at Gu Sheng with burning eyes and said, "Gu Sheng, now that you have shown your talents, I will give you another chance. I want you to continue to search for the whereabouts of the remaining five Dragon Pearl. As long as you can find them, I will reward you with Yu Die."

Gu Sheng Hearing this, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, he cupped his hands and said:

"Your Highness, I am naturally willing to search for Dragon Pearl, but right now there is no trace of Dragon Pearl in the center of the seven Sacred Mountains. How should I proceed?"

Princess Zishuang smiled slightly and said, "You don't need to worry, I will call Royal Sky Net Organization and try my best to trace the whereabouts of Dragon Pearl. You just need to cooperate fully and find out their whereabouts as soon as possible."

Gu Sheng's heart moved. He knew that the power behind Princess Zishuang was huge. If he could get her help, the search for Dragon Pearl might be more effective.

He quickly said, "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will definitely cooperate fully to find out the whereabouts of Dragon Pearl as soon as possible."

Princess Zishuang nodded and said, "Very good, Gu Sheng, you did not disappoint me. Remember, your performance will determine whether you can get Yu Die. I'm looking forward to good news from you."

Gu Sheng felt a surge of pride in his heart. He knew that this was a rare opportunity and a huge challenge.

He took a deep breath and said, "Your Highness, as I said before, I will try my best!"

Gu Sheng's efforts are not just words.

Princess Zishuang nodded with satisfaction, then turned and left.

Gu Sheng was left alone, his eyes shining with determination, and he already had his own plans in mind.

Dragon Pearl is extremely tempting. They are not only treasures for cultivation, but also the key to achieving certain goals.

Gu Sheng knew that he had to seize this opportunity, not only to find Dragon Pearl, but also to ensure that he could get them.

He already has a plan in mind. He will use his wisdom and strength to cooperate with Princess Zishuang and Royal Sky Net Organization to find the whereabouts of Dragon Pearl.

Gu Sheng has been recovering at the Saint Pill Sect for several days, and his injuries have healed.

In the past few days, two sisters, Mu Tiantian and Mu Yuanyuan, have taken turns accompanying each other, making Gu Sheng feel even more warm.

Today, he was invited by Mu Tiantian to go to the royal auction of the Liang Kingdom.

The Royal Auction venue is located on the outskirts of the Imperial City, and is magnificent and resplendent.

Gu Sheng Stepping into it, you can see the carved beams and painted buildings all around, and the light is overflowing, as if you are in a fairyland.

In the center of the venue, a huge auction stage stood. Various rare and exotic treasures were placed on the stage, which was overflowing with brilliance and dazzling.

Gu Sheng was sitting in an elegant room, resting his chin on his hand and looking forward to it in his eyes. this

This time he came with one million taels of gold and vowed to catch all the medicines and elixirs to show his financial strength and courage.

The auction officially began, and each item was unveiled one by one.

Whenever a medicine or elixir appeared, Gu Sheng would bid without hesitation and pay a lot of money to buy it.

Earth Core Dendrobium, Hundred Year Amomum Seed, Three Hundred Year Angelica, Thousand Year Polygonum Multiflorum, Million Year Mystic Ice, Mystic Grade Solomons Seal, Two Thousand Year Mystic Ginseng, South Sea Spirit Dragon, as long as they are nourishing medicinal materials, Gu Sheng will take pictures of them all.

The auction had just progressed, and he had already spent hundreds of thousands of gold on almost all elixir-type treasures.

His actions immediately attracted the attention of everyone present, and they all cast their eyes in surprise and envy.
