"Oh? Really?" A cold light flashed in Gu Sheng's eyes, "Then let me see how much you Black Wind Stronghold actually weigh!"
After saying that, Gu Sheng's figure flashed and disappeared instantly. The next moment, he had appeared behind the leader of the men in black and slapped him with a palm. The leader of the men in black only had time to let out a scream before he was knocked out and hit the rock wall hard.
"Is this your Black Wind Stronghold's strength? It really disappoints me!" Gu Sheng said coldly.
The leader of the men in black struggled to stand up, his eyes full of fear and unwillingness. "You... you wait! We Black Wind Stronghold will not let you go!"
"Hmph! We are waiting for you!" Xing Lie said disdainfully, "But you'd better pray that we don't let us find your lair, otherwise..."
The leader of the men in black said no more, and he led his men out of the mine in dejection. Gu Sheng and others did not continue to pursue them. They knew that these bandits no longer posed any threat.
"Haha! This time it's really satisfying!" Kou Hai laughed, "These bandits usually do a lot of evil, but this time they finally suffered!"
"Yes! Thanks to Brother Gu and Brother Xing this time!" Ying Tianxing said with emotion.
"Since we are one family, we don't have to speak two different languages." Gu Sheng said with a smile, "We were able to escape the danger and win a great victory this time, thanks to everyone's unity and cooperation."
Everyone nodded in agreement. After this incident, they realized the importance of unity more deeply.
"By the way, Brother Gu, that palm you just struck was so powerful!" Wu Tianxiong exclaimed, "What kind of technique was that?"
"That's a special technique I practiced, called "Gale Nine Swords"." Gu Sheng explained, "This technique focuses on both speed and strength, and can explode with powerful attack power in a short period of time."
"It's really amazing!" Wu Tianxiong exclaimed, "I don't know when I will be able to practice to this level."
"As long as you practice hard, you will reach this state one day." Gu Sheng encouraged. He knows that the path of cultivation is full of hardships and challenges, but as long as he persists in his efforts, he will surely achieve success.
After everyone chatted for a while, Gu Sheng suddenly suggested. "Since we have obtained treasures like Primordial Divine Crystal and defeated the bandits of Black Wind Stronghold, I think we can take the opportunity to loot their lair - Black Wind Ridge!"
"Lost Black Wind Ridge?" Everyone showed surprised expressions when they heard this. They know that Black Wind Ridge is where Black Wind Stronghold's headquarters is, and it must be heavily guarded there. It's not an easy thing to loot there. But when they thought of the treasures Primordial Divine Crystal and Black Wind Stronghold, they were all moved again.
Loot Black Wind Ridge
"Brother Gu is right! We can't let those bastards go!" Xing Lie waved his fists, his face filled with indignation. He was the first to express his support for Gu Sheng's proposal.
His eyes flashed with wild and militant light, as if he had seen the dawn of victory, "When have we, the descendants of Thirteen Great Bandits, been afraid of trouble? And I believe that with our strength, it is no problem to win Black Wind Ridge!"
"Brother Xing is right! We have to show them something!" Kou Hai also shouted excitedly, with a ruthless expression on his face, as if he couldn't wait to fight. Others are also gearing up to express support for the plan.
Gu Sheng stood in front of everyone, his eyes were firm and sharp, as if he could see through all illusions and illusions, "Since everyone has this intention, we will act quickly and not give them any chance to react. This operation can only succeed, not fail!"
Everyone responded in unison and their morale was high. Under the leadership of Gu Sheng, they quickly left the mine and headed towards Black Wind Ridge. Their steps were firm and powerful, as if they were stepping on the enemy's heart with every step.
The night was getting darker, but they had no intention of stopping. Approaching the top of the mountain quietly, prepare to give the Black Wind Stronghold bandits a fatal blow.
As they approached the top of the mountain, they heard a sudden commotion. It turns out that the bandits from Black Wind Stronghold are drinking and having fun, celebrating today's "victory".
Gu Sheng A flash of coldness flashed in his eyes, and he waved his hand, signaling everyone to get ready. Then, he took a deep breath and activated his technique.
There seemed to be vast ocean waves surging in his body, and visions such as mountains, rivers, lakes, seas, flowers, birds, and animals emerged behind him, and his aura was so powerful. This is the shocking effect brought about by the Sea Bottom Realm's first-level cultivation.
At the same time, Primordial Saint Body of Gu Sheng also showed its unique effect. His body seemed to be shrouded in golden light, and the grid-shaped golden light circulated endlessly, as if he was wearing a golden armor. He can shoot golden palms and golden fists at will, and every attack is full of destructive power.
"Kill!" Gu Sheng shouted and rushed out first. His figure flashed across the night sky like lightning, heading straight towards the Black Wind Stronghold bandits. Under his leadership, the people of Jade Maiden Gang were like tigers descending from the mountain, unstoppable.
Black Wind Stronghold's bandits were caught off guard by this sudden attack. They panicked and took up arms to resist, but under the fierce attack by Gu Sheng and others, they soon fell into a rout. Seeing that the situation was not good, some clever bandits surrendered and begged for mercy.
"Spare your life! We surrender!"
"Don't kill us, we are willing to hand over all the treasures!"
Black Wind Stronghold's bandits fell to their knees one after another, holding their heads in their hands, fearing that Gu Sheng and others would kill them. They usually do a lot of evil, but at this moment they are like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, with no power to resist.
Gu Sheng looked at these bandits coldly, with no pity or sympathy in his eyes. He knew that these people deserved their crimes and that their hands were stained with the blood of innocent people. But he also knew that now was not the time to kill, so he waved his hand to signal everyone to stop attacking.
"Hand over all your treasures and belongings!" Gu Sheng said coldly. Although his voice was not loud, it was full of majesty and dominance.
Upon hearing this, the Black Wind Stronghold bandits took action and handed over all their belongings and treasures. Soon a large amount of gold, silver, treasures and rare materials were piled in front of Gu Sheng and others. These are the ill-gotten gains they usually get from robbery, but now they have become their life-saving straw.
Gu Sheng looked at these belongings and nodded slightly and then motioned for everyone to leave. They didn't stay long and soon disappeared into the night. Before leaving, Gu Sheng deliberately set fire to Black Wind Stronghold's camp as punishment for their sinful behavior.
This sudden attack caused heavy losses to the Black Wind Stronghold bandits. Not only did they lose all their belongings and treasures but they also lost control of the area. Gu Sheng and others returned with a full load. They not only eliminated harm to the people, but also gained rich harvests.
On the way back to Jade Girl Peak, everyone excitedly discussed the looting operation.
"Brother Gu, you are so amazing! You can actually come up with such a plan!" Xing Lie patted Gu Sheng on the shoulder and said excitedly.
"Yes! Brother Gu is not only highly skilled, but also wise and courageous. He is truly a role model for us!" Kou Hai also sighed sincerely.
The mutation of Grass Vine Demonic Soul
"Today's harvest is the result of everyone's joint efforts. This credit does not belong to me alone." Gu Sheng smiled and glanced at everyone's faces. His distribution plan made everyone satisfied. Even the ordinary members of Jade Maiden Gang received quite generous rewards.
"Brother Gu, you are always so considerate." Kou Hai said with a smile, playing with the spirit stone he was assigned, his eyes shining with excitement.
"Everyone deserves this." Gu Sheng waved his hand, his eyes turned to the spirit stone in his hand, and he already had a plan in his mind. He needs these spiritual stones to nourish his Grass Vine Demonic Soul.
As night fell, Gu Sheng sat alone in a quiet room, surrounded by sparkling spiritual stones. He took a deep breath, placed the spirit stones around him one by one, formed a seal with his hands, and began to activate the technique. The spiritual energy in his body surged like ocean waves.
As time goes by, the spiritual power in the spiritual stone is gradually absorbed by Grass Vine Demonic Soul. Those Grass Vine Demonic Soul, which were originally about the size of a thumb and glowing red, began to undergo changes under the nourishment of massive spiritual stones. Their color gradually changed from red to yellow, and their size also grew at a speed visible to the naked eye, eventually becoming three fingers wide and reaching an astonishing length of more than 4,000 meters.
A hint of surprise flashed in Gu Sheng's eyes. He could feel Grass Vine Demonic Soul's power growing rapidly, as if a powerful force was surging in his body. He tried to split Grass Vine Demonic Soul, and saw that they instantly turned into thousands of thin vines, each one filled with powerful corrosive power.
"This corrosive power is so powerful!" Gu Sheng exclaimed. In order to test this newly acquired power, he took Grass Vine Demonic Soul into the ice jungle for a trial.
In the ice jungle, monsters are rampant. After feeling Gu Sheng's aura, ferocious monsters attacked him one after another. However, in front of Gu Sheng and Grass Vine Demonic Soul, these monsters were like paper, instantly corroded into bones.
A Sea Bottom Realm-level mammoth elephant, under the Gu Sheng's Grass Vine Demonic Soul attack, only lasted a few seconds before turning into a pile of bones at a speed visible to the naked eye. Not even the scum is left!
"The power of this Grass Vine Demonic Soul is really terrifying." Gu Sheng looked at the bones in front of him and couldn't help but sigh. He knew that he had really found a treasure this time.
However, just as Gu Sheng was about to leave the ice jungle, he suddenly felt a powerful aura approaching quickly. This aura was so powerful that he felt a little frightened.
"Could it be..." Gu Sheng thought to himself, and quickly left the place in a flash.
At the same time, deep in the ice jungle, a pair of scarlet eyes slowly opened, revealing a fierce killing intent. "Hey, I never thought that this little Northern Region could be such an interesting guy. I want the power of this Grass Vine Demonic Soul!"
A few days later, Gu Sheng returned to Jade Girl Peak, and he told everyone about Grass Vine Demonic Soul's changes. After hearing the news, everyone looked shocked. They knew that Gu Sheng had received a powerful boost, but at the same time they were worried about him, because such power would inevitably attract countless peeks and fights.
"Brother Gu, you must be careful in the future." Xing Lie warned, "Although such power is powerful, it will also bring you countless troubles."
"Don't worry, Brother Xing." Gu Sheng said with a smile, "I have my own sense of proportion." He looked firmly into the distance and already had a new plan in mind. He knows that there is still a long way to go, but he has the confidence to go on and create his own glory!
In the days that followed, Gu Sheng did not stop practicing just because he got Grass Vine Demonic Soul. Instead, he worked harder to improve his strength.
He knows that only by being strong himself can he be truly powerful, so that he can face all threats that may arise in the future and protect the people around him.
At the same time, he also began to try to combine the power of Grass Vine Demonic Soul with his own skills to create his own unique martial arts.
On this day, Gu Sheng was practicing in a quiet room, when suddenly there was a burst of rapid footsteps. He opened his eyes and saw Kou Hai running in in a hurry.
"Brother Gu is not good!" Kou Hai said breathlessly, "Outside... there is a group of people coming outside. They said they are here to find you!"
"Looking for me?" Gu Sheng frowned, feeling a bad premonition in his heart. "Who are they?"
"I don't know. They just said they came to find you." Kou Hai shook his head and said, "They look very powerful. Should we avoid them first?"
"Avoid? Why avoid?" Gu Sheng stood up and a cold light flashed in his eyes. "I want to see what they want to see me for!" As he said that, he strode out of the quiet room and walked out of the mountain gate.
Seeing this, everyone at Jade Maiden Gang followed suit. They knew that things might not be that simple this time.
Gu Sheng came outside the mountain gate and saw a group of people standing there waiting for them. The leader was a middle-aged man. He was wearing brocade clothes and holding a golden sword. He looked very imposing.
"Are you the descendants of Northern Region Thirteen Great Bandits?" The middle-aged man looked at Gu Sheng and others and asked coldly. His eyes swept over everyone and finally landed on Gu Sheng. "Are you Gu Sheng?"
"Yes." Gu Sheng nodded. "I am Gu Sheng. I wonder what you are doing here?" Although he felt the powerful aura on the other party's body, there was no trace of fear on his face.
He knew he couldn't back down at this time, otherwise he would let the other party see his flaws.
"Hmph! Don't you know why we are here?" The middle-aged man snorted coldly, "Hand over your Grass Vine Demonic Soul, and we can spare your life!" His tone was full of threats and murderous intent. Obviously they came for Grass Vine Demonic Soul of Gu Sheng.
"Oh? You want my Grass Vine Demonic Soul?" Gu Sheng smiled with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, "Then it depends on whether you have the ability!"
As he spoke, he activated his skills and prepared to fight. He knew that this battle was inevitable, and he also wanted to test how powerful his newly acquired Grass Vine Demonic Soul was.
The atmosphere between the two sides became tense instantly, and a war was about to break out!
Everyone in Jade Maiden Gang is also ready to fight. They know that only by uniting as one can we tide over the difficulties at this time. And Gu Sheng is standing at the front. He wants to use his own strength to prove the glory and dignity of Northern Region Thirteen Great Bandits's descendants!
