The night is like water, and the moonlight shines softly on Clumsy Peak. Gu Sheng and Su Ling sit opposite each other, surrounded by tranquility and peace.
"Are you ready?" Gu Sheng asked softly, his eyes full of expectation and determination.
Su Ling smiled slightly and nodded, "I'm ready, let's get started."
The two put their hands together, closed their eyes, and began to practice the mysterious and ancient Jade Maiden Heart Sutra. Gradually, their breathing became synchronized, as if there was a mysterious power flowing between them.
As time passed, a faint light began to glow around them. This light gradually spread and completely enveloped them. It was as if they had entered a mysterious world, a world that only belonged to the two of them.
In this virtual space transformed by mental methods, they cling to and embrace each other, and their hearts are connected. They can feel each other's emotions and thoughts without words. They entered a special retreat mode - Joyful Buddha Seclusion Mode, which is an ancient and mysterious practice method that is said to allow people to gain a deeper understanding of the mysteries of heaven and earth.
"I feel that the connection between us is closer." Su Ling said softly, her voice full of surprise and expectation.
Gu Sheng also felt this change, and his heart was filled with joy. "Yes, this is the wonder of Joyful Buddha Seclusion Mode. We have to continue to practice in depth and see if we can trigger more mysteries."
As their practice deepened, their joy reached its peak. This kind of joy is not only emotional pleasure, but also a kind of spiritual sublimation and transformation. It was as if the whole world was immersed in this joy, and their souls were purified and improved as never before at this moment.
Suddenly, a powerful force surged in Gu Sheng's body. This power surged like a torrent, making him feel an unprecedented shock and excitement.
"Ah!" Gu Sheng couldn't help but let out a long roar. His voice echoed in the night sky, as if it was about to break through the sky.
At the same time, his combat power doubled in an instant! Golden light burst out from his body, as dazzling as a scorching sun. His fists were clenched tightly, and when he punched out, the void seemed to be shattered.
Su Ling looked at this scene in shock. She felt the powerful aura and endless fighting power exuding from Gu Sheng. This change surprised and excited her. "Gu Sheng, you... what's wrong with you? What kind of power is this?"
Gu Sheng took a deep breath and tried to calm down the excitement in his heart. "This is the power of Clumsy Peak's 'Nine Secrets: Jie'! I didn't expect to be able to trigger it in Joyful Buddha Seclusion Mode! I feel like my combat power has doubled!"
After saying that, he punched a mountain peak more than ten miles away. "Rumble--" Wherever the fist wind passed, rocks were shattered and trees were broken! That majestic mountain peak exploded instantly under the power of Gu Sheng's punch!
Looking at the scene in front of her, Su Ling was stunned and speechless. She knew that Gu Sheng now had the power to destroy the world! "Too... too powerful!"
When Gu Sheng exited the retreat state, he found that his combat power had returned to normal. He tried hundreds of times before he could trigger the skill that doubled his combat power again. This made him realize that this skill could not be used anytime and anywhere.
"What kind of skill is this?" Su Ling asked curiously.
Gu Sheng was silent for a moment before replying, "This is the 'Nine Secrets: Jie' of Clumsy Peak, which is one of the Nine Secrets of Cultivation World. Once you master it, you can double your combat power, but the use time is limited, and you cannot use it frequently."
Su Ling's eyes widened after hearing this, and he looked at Gu Sheng in disbelief. "You have mastered one of Cultivation World's Nine Secrets! This is a secret technique that countless monks dream of!"
Gu Sheng nodded, with a solemn look on his face. "Yes, I have indeed mastered it. But it is also a huge burden, because once exposed, it will lead to a large-scale pursuit."
Su Ling took a deep breath, and she understood Gu Sheng's worries. "Then what are you going to do?"
"I will use it carefully." Gu Sheng said, "And I will also work hard to practice and improve my strength. Only in this way can I better protect myself and the people around me."
Su Ling did not realize the secret technique, but only broke through a small realm. Ji Yewei also broke through a small realm.
In Clumsy Peak, Green Vine Demonic Soul finished devouring the Sky-Tearing Saber-toothed Tiger and did not mutate again, but the life essence in the body was extremely surging. Gu Sheng suddenly had an idea and asked Grass Vine Demonic Soul to help him practice.
Life essence itself is a type of spiritual energy. If Grass Vine Demonic Soul were to give part of the essence to himself, wouldn't the cultivation speed be leveraged?
Heartbeat is not as good as action. Gu Sheng uses Grass Vine Demonic Soul to transform life essence into spiritual energy.
"Huh——"
Gu Sheng exhaled a long breath, with a firm light shining in his eyes. After a period of practice, he, Su Ling, and Ji Yewei both made breakthroughs, but he knew that this was just the beginning.
"Grass Vine Demonic Soul, after swallowing Sky-Tearing Saber-toothed Tiger, the life essence in your body should be very surging, right?" Gu Sheng asked softly, as if talking to an old friend.
Grass Vine Demonic Soul trembled slightly, as if responding to Gu Sheng. He could feel the huge energy in Grass Vine Demonic Soul's body, which was a force full of vitality.
"Then, let's get started." Gu Sheng took a deep breath, sat down cross-legged, and began to guide Grass Vine Demonic Soul to convert life essence into spiritual energy.
This is a slow and wonderful process. Grass Vine Demonic Soul's life essence flowed slowly into Gu Sheng's body like a trickle. These essences circulate in Gu Sheng's meridians. Every time they circulate, part of the essences are transformed into pure spiritual energy, which nourishes Gu Sheng's body and soul.
"Hiss-"
Grass Vine Demonic Soul's life essence surged in Gu Sheng's body, as if little snakes were swimming. These essences have strong vitality, making Gu Sheng feel comfortable all over, as if every cell is cheering for joy.
The transformation process has not been easy. When life essence is converted into spiritual energy, a large amount of energy is lost. Gu Sheng could clearly feel that out of every hundred life essences, only ten could be successfully transformed into spiritual energy, which made him feel a little distressed.
But this process is essential. Gu Sheng knows that only in this way can he improve his cultivation level faster. So, he gritted his teeth and persisted, constantly guiding Grass Vine Demonic Soul to transform life essence into spiritual energy.
As time passes, Gu Sheng's cultivation level is slowly improving. He could feel the spiritual energy in his body becoming more and more full, as if it was about to overflow. And his body is also undergoing earth-shaking changes. Every inch of his skin seems to have been nourished by spiritual energy, becoming stronger and stronger.
Finally, at a certain moment, Gu Sheng felt as if he had broken through a certain bottleneck. His cultivation level jumped from the Navel Wheel Realm ninth level to the Sun Realm first level! This was a qualitative leap that made him feel stronger and more confident than ever before.
After the breakthrough, Heavenly Tribulation came as expected. A sea of thunder descended, with lightning and thunder, as if it was about to destroy the entire world. Gu Sheng stood in the sea of thunder, feeling the baptism of Heavenly Tribulation. He knew that this was a test for himself and an affirmation of his strength.
"Rumble--"
The thunder was deafening, but Gu Sheng was not afraid. He activated the technique, and the golden waves rolled endlessly, as if they were about to break through the sky. His aura was so powerful that it made everyone around him feel palpitated.
Heavenly Dao Sect and other forces from all directions were shocked by this Heavenly Tribulation. They talked a lot and were amazed at the strength of Gu Sheng.
"This child is extraordinary! He can actually trigger such a powerful Heavenly Tribulation!"
"Yes! It seems that his future achievements will be limitless!"
Gu Sheng Listening to the discussions around him, there was no wave in his heart. He knows that he still has a long way to go and needs to work harder to go further. So he continued to practice and guided Grass Vine Demonic Soul to transform more life essence into spiritual energy to nourish his body and soul.
As time goes by, Gu Sheng's cultivation becomes more and more powerful. He felt as if he had integrated into this world, walking with the avenue and resonating with all things. He finally made a breakthrough!
"Hahaha! I finally made a breakthrough!" Gu Sheng looked up to the sky and laughed, the sound shaking the sky. His laughter was full of pride and endless confidence. He knows that there is still a long way to go, but he is ready to face greater challenges!
At the same time, many disciples in the Heavenly Dao Sect were also attracted by Heavenly Tribulation of Gu Sheng, and they all discussed this sudden change.
"Whose Heavenly Tribulation is this? It's so terrifying!"
"I don't know, but it must be a certain senior brother or elder who is making a breakthrough, right?"
"It's so scary! This is the first time I've seen this kind of Heavenly Tribulation!"
The top brass of the Heavenly Dao Sect were also alarmed. They looked in the direction of Heavenly Tribulation with complicated light shining in their eyes. They know that a brand new powerhouse is rising, which will have a profound impact on the entire Heavenly Dao Sect.
After the thunderstorm, Gu Sheng stood quietly among the ruins, feeling the surging power within his body. Sun Realm Yi Zhongtian, this is a new starting point and a new challenge. He looked up to the sky, his eyes shining with determination.
"Space Leap's secret technique can actually jump a thousand meters." Gu Sheng murmured to himself, with unconcealable excitement on his face. This secret technique is undoubtedly even more powerful for him.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of breaking through the air in the distance. Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows, and his figure instantly disappeared from the spot and appeared a thousand meters away. This almost teleportation speed made him feel a little incredible.
"Hahaha! Is this the power of the Sun Realm? It's really amazing!" Gu Sheng laughed loudly, his heart full of pride and ambition.
He didn't let his guard down. Because he knew that the person who could cause such a big commotion must not be an ordinary person. Sure enough, not long after, a Dao Body shadow slowly fell from the sky and landed where Gu Sheng was standing before.
"Oh? Are you Gu Sheng? You really deserve your reputation." The person who came was a middle-aged man wearing a black robe. He looked at Gu Sheng with a look of admiration in his eyes.
Gu Sheng looked at the other party coldly, secretly wary in his heart. He knew that this person was definitely not simple. So, he activated the technique, the golden waves rolled endlessly, and his aura was so powerful. His body seemed to be enveloped in golden light, exuding a powerful aura.
"Who are you? Why did you come to me?" Gu Sheng asked in a deep voice.
The man in black robe smiled slightly and did not answer Gu Sheng's question. Instead, he asked, "Do you know how the truly strong people on this continent practice?"
Gu Sheng frowned, not understanding the other party's intention. But he didn't want to get entangled with the other party too much, so he said coldly, "I'm not interested in knowing this. If you have nothing else to do, please leave."
The man in black robe didn't mind Gu Sheng's attitude. He continued, "On this continent, the real strong men have mastered a mysterious power - the power of space. Only by mastering the power of space can we truly stand at the pinnacle of this world."
Gu Sheng's heart moved. Could it be that this man in black robe knows more secrets about the power of space? He was about to ask, but suddenly he felt a powerful aura approaching quickly.
"Hahaha! Gu Sheng, you are indeed here!" An arrogant voice came, and then, a young man in brocade clothes fell from the sky and landed in front of Gu Sheng and the man in black robe.
"Li Yunfei?" Gu Sheng raised his brows and recognized that this young man in gilded clothes was Li Yunfei, a disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sect and the pursuer of Su Ling. He thought that by defeating Gu Sheng, he could possess Su Ling.
Li Yunfei looked at Gu Sheng with an arrogant expression, and sneered, "Gu Sheng, today is the day you die! I want you to know the consequences of offending me, Li Yunfei!"
After saying that, he flashed and rushed towards Gu Sheng. Just when he was about to come into contact with Gu Sheng, Gu Sheng suddenly disappeared.
"What? This... is this Space Leap?" Li Yunfei looked at the empty venue in shock and said in disbelief.
At this time, Gu Sheng had appeared behind Li Yunfei. He sneered and slapped his palm, and the golden palm instantly penetrated Li Yunfei's body.
"Ah——" Li Yunfei screamed and fell heavily to the ground. His eyes were filled with fear and unwillingness, but he could no longer reverse the defeat.
The man in black robe looked at this scene with a look of appreciation in his eyes. He walked up to Gu Sheng, stretched out his hand and said, "Gu Sheng, you are indeed a genius."
After saying that, the man in black robe turned into a black light and disappeared, which made Gu Sheng a little confused.
He didn't pay much attention to the man in black robe. There were too many inexplicable people in this world.
He looked at Li Yunfei and said with a smile, "If you want to pursue Su Ling, you can pursue it openly. I have no objection. If you want to defeat me, you can always accompany me!"
Hearing Gu Sheng's statement, a blush appeared on Su Ling's face. She walked forward and solemnly warned Li Yunfei, "Li Yunfei, you are not my type. Don't pester me in the future. Otherwise, I can kill you without Gu Sheng taking action!"
Bleeding from the corner of the mouth, Li Yunfei Where have you seen such a formation? He nodded repeatedly and limped away, followed by a few followers who didn't dare to step forward to give him a hand.
I really don't dare, for fear of offending Gu Sheng and others.
Clumsy Peak was in depression, and he was bullied by the Heavenly Dao Sect some gangsters on weekdays, but now he was finally proud and proud.
