Several people gathered together again, and Gu Sheng found that everyone's divine power had changed.

For a moment, the smile on his face became even bigger.

"Not bad, one is improving faster than the other. If I read it correctly, Lan Yao has broken through, right?"

Hearing his words, Lan Yao nodded with bright eyes.

"Yes, the bottleneck that has troubled me for several years has finally been broken this time! Gu Sheng, do you want to compete with me?"

"Lan Yao, are you crazy? He is Gu Sheng!"

Bai Yu stopped him and gave him a look.

"You can't even beat me, but you still want to fight him? You have a breakthrough, not an immortal!"

Hearing this, Lan Yao calmed down slightly and scratched his head in embarrassment.

"I was just talking casually."

"How dare you say that."

"It's just talk, what's there to be afraid of?"

Seeing the two people bickering, Gu Sheng couldn't help laughing.

"Shi Lou, how are you doing?"

"Brother Sheng, our strength has also improved a lot!"

"That's good. Let's go pack your things. We'll leave tomorrow."

After hearing this, everyone was a little confused.

"Gu Sheng, did something happen again? Why are you leaving in such a hurry?"

Gu Sheng told Saintly Hermit about it, and only then did everyone react when they learned that they were going to Dongshan.

"Okay, we'll leave tomorrow!"

After everyone left, Gu Sheng went directly to Hong Mei's place.

No one answered the door after knocking for a long time, so he transferred to Peerless Hermit.

Sure enough, as soon as I entered the door, I saw Hong Mei.

The two of them were working with herbs. Hong Mei sat close to Peerless Hermit, resting his head on her shoulder from time to time. The two of them were talking and laughing, and they seemed to have a deep relationship between master and disciple.

I have to admit, Peerless Hermit is really good for Hong Mei.

There are so many people under her, but she only prefers Hong Mei. Maybe it's also the reason for Head Disciple. She always has to give some preference.

After being able to make some noise and attract the attention of two people, Gu Sheng walked over.

"Meet the leader."

Peerless Hermit raised his hand and looked at him with a smile, "Gu Sheng, are they all out?"

"Yes, thanks to Peerless Hermit, their divine power has improved. Tomorrow we will set off for Dongshan."

Hearing this, Hong Mei stood up immediately.

"Leaving tomorrow? So soon?"

"They are all out of seclusion, and it's time for us to pass."

After Gu Sheng finished speaking, Hong Mei looked at Peerless Hermit with reluctance.

Peerless Hermit patted her hand and said, "Be sure to listen to Gu Sheng on the road, and don't act out of emotion. Your temper has been made arrogant by me, and it's time to temper it. Follow Gu Sheng well, you can learn a lot from him."

"Master, I can't bear to leave you..."

"Silly girl, I'm right here Cloud Sea. You can see me whenever you come back. Why don't you want to leave?"

"I'm worried about the poison on your body..."

"Gu Sheng has already developed a method of suppression for me. I will conquer the rest bit by bit. After you leave, I can concentrate on my research behind closed doors. You are always disturbing my mind here, so it's time to leave."

Hearing this, Hong Mei could only nod helplessly.

"Master, if you need anything, please send us a message. I promise to come back as soon as possible."

"Don't worry, you are me Head Disciple. I will not hide anything from you. Go pack your things and leave early tomorrow. Don't waste time on the road. Saintly Hermit and her people are full of tricks. Be sure to listen to Gu Sheng along the way and don't lose your temper."

After hearing Peerless Hermit's repeated instructions, Hong Mei raised his head and glanced at Gu Sheng, then nodded with a blushing face.

"Don't worry, I know."

Early that morning, everyone gathered in front of Gu Sheng.

After counting the number of people, Gu Sheng took everyone to say goodbye to Peerless Hermit and set foot on the road to Dongshan together.

After leaving Cloud Sea, Gu Sheng released a stream of spiritual power and thrust forward.

Seeing how freely he used his spiritual power, Hong Mei was a little curious.

"Gu Sheng, there is no strange smell nearby, why did you suddenly release your spiritual power?"

"Guide the way."

"Guiding the way? What are you looking for with your spiritual power?"

"Saintly Hermit's breath, Peerless Hermit gave me something with her breath on it."

"What if she's not in Dongshan?"

"That's where she finally disappeared. She must have stayed there for a long time. If we search like this, we can always find her."

Understanding what this meant, Hong Mei curled his lips.

"Gu Sheng, you are really smart."

Gu Sheng couldn't help laughing when he was suddenly praised.

"It's okay, let's go."

Everyone moved forward, and after two days of running, they entered a dense forest.

There was no sunlight in the dense forest, and it was extremely dark everywhere. From time to time, the roars of wild beasts could be heard. The road under their feet was muddy, which made everyone move slower.

Gu Sheng is at the front, always leading the way.

After walking in the dense forest for a whole day, they still didn't see the sun.

He raised his head and glanced at the sky, Lan Yao pinched his eyebrows with a headache.

"Gu Sheng, we have been walking for a day, when will this road end?"

"Don't worry, you can always get out."

Seeing Gu Sheng still looking so calm and relaxed, Lan Yao was so angry that he laughed.

At this moment, a wisp of breath suddenly came from a distance.

Gu Sheng stood at the front, and the breath fell directly on him, causing his expression to change suddenly.

"Gu Sheng, if that doesn't work, let's take a rest. It's been a day, and we have to replenish our strength."

After Lan Yao finished speaking, Gu Sheng shook his head seriously.

"I could rest just now, but now I can't. A monster is coming."

Hearing this, everyone was shocked. They quickly approached Gu Sheng and surrounded him in a semicircle.

Gu Sheng turned around, blocked Hong Mei behind him, and took out Fire Spirit Dagger.

"Bai Yu, you and I go, Lan Yao, protect Mirror Sect's people."

Hearing this, Hong Mei hurriedly said, "Gu Sheng, we are not as weak as you think. I can fight side by side with you."

"As long as we are here, we won't need you for the time being. Just stay here and protect yourself. Bai Yu, let's go."

After Gu Sheng finished speaking, Bai Yu hurried forward and walked side by side with him.

The two quickly shuttled through the dense forest and followed the scent to find the monster hiding in the dark.

The monster looked like a deer, with two extremely sharp horns on its head, and the two horns were half a meter long. It was something extraordinary at first sight.

Looking at the monster's green eyes, Gu Sheng curled his lips coldly.

"You're the one who brought us here? If you want to die, just say so!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Sheng stepped forward and waved the Fire Spirit Dagger in his hand straight towards the monster.

A red light flashed, and the monster dodged nimbly.

Gu Sheng's spiritual energy hit the ground, punching a hole in the muddy ground.

He took back Fire Spirit Dagger and looked at the monster again. Gu Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly.

"No wonder you dared to lure us here. It turned out there were two brushes, but you lured the wrong person. You must die today!"

The aura around his body was released, and Gu Sheng stepped forward again. With a twist of his wrist, Fire Spirit Dagger quickly drew a circle in mid-air, and streams of spiritual energy exploded, filling the entire space.

The monster beast was wrapped in it, and it immediately roared.

It moved its hooves, its head was slightly lowered, and the sharp horn on its head was facing Gu Sheng's life gate, and it rushed over quickly!

Gu Sheng is not timid either and confronts him head-on.

The divine power of one person and one beast collided hard, and there was a bang.

For a moment, the entire space shook. Gu Sheng took two steps back, immediately steadied his feet, and rushed towards the monster again.

The Fire Spirit Dagger in his hand turned again and stabbed the monster's neck fiercely!

Sensing his intention, the monster quickly took a step back, preparing to flee.

Seeing its movement, Gu Sheng's footsteps quickly swung to the right, and Fire Spirit Dagger stabbed it hard!

In an instant, blood splattered everywhere, and Gu Sheng felt a stench coming towards him, and immediately used his divine power to block it.

"Bai Yu, come and help!"

After hearing his words, Bai Yu, who had never dared to act rashly, stepped forward quickly.

The two stood on the left and right, Gu Sheng still holding a bloody Fire Spirit Dagger in his hand.

The demonic beast stood a few steps away from the two of them, its aura erupting strongly. It stared at Gu Sheng fiercely, as if it wanted to kill him.

Gu Sheng looked at him with a sneer on his lips.

Stepping forward quickly, he stabbed out the Fire Spirit Dagger in his hand again. As he kept raising his hand, a Dao Fire flame flew out from his palm.

When Gu Sheng attracted most of the monster's attention, Bai Yu began to move secretly.

He came out from the right and struck directly at the monster with the long knife in his hand.

The monster noticed it and immediately attacked in reverse.

Bai Yu was entangled with him, dodging several times with his steps, but not letting his hands move at all.

Seeing that he had attracted the attention of the monster, Gu Sheng stepped forward with a ghostly figure. While he was trying to kill Bai Yu, he stabbed out Fire Spirit Dagger in his hand, directly hitting his dantian!

In an instant, the aura on the monster beast began to dissipate.

Gu Sheng Adhering to the principle of taking advantage of its illness to kill it, Fire Spirit Dagger plunged in again and again until the monster fell limply, with no trace of aura left in its body, and then he stopped.

Bai Yu walked forward and asked breathlessly, "Gu Sheng, is there anything we can use on this monster?"

"Horn, cut it off and make a dagger."

Understanding what he meant, Bai Yu immediately cut off the monster's horn.

Gu Sheng put the things into the storage ring, and then the two of them walked back.

Along the way, Gu Sheng kept checking to make sure there were no other monsters, so he quickened his pace.

At this time, Hong Mei and others were waiting anxiously. When they saw a figure in the distance, everyone immediately became vigilant.

Feeling the changes in their auras, Gu Sheng hurriedly released his divine power.

Shi Lou sensed it first and hurriedly shouted, "Everyone, please don't act rashly, it's Gu Sheng and Bai Yu who are back!"

After hearing his words, everyone immediately put away their breath and hurried forward to greet him.

"Brother Sheng, are you okay?"

"Gu Sheng, are you injured?"

Seeing everyone's anxious looks, Gu Sheng smiled and shook his head.

"Don't worry, we're fine."

Hearing this, Er Gou and Huang Shan immediately circled around the two of them several times to make sure that they were really not injured, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

"Brother Sheng, you scared us to death. Why did killing a monster make such a big fuss?"

"This monster has some strength. Bai Yu and I worked together to take it down. Let's move forward as quickly as possible to prevent other monsters from hearing the news and coming over."

Understanding what he meant, everyone nodded and followed his footsteps again.

Gu Sheng led everyone forward, following the path that Professor Na took. Sure enough, after walking for an hour, they finally saw the sky outside.

It was already dark now, and everyone realized that they had been trapped inside for two full days!

"Finally came out."

Lan Yao After finishing speaking, the others also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yes, I finally came out."

Seeing everyone's tired faces, Gu Sheng pointed to a giant tree next to them.

"We won't be in a hurry tonight. Let's stay here for one night to recover our strength."

After hearing this, everyone was overjoyed and hurried over to rest.

When bursts of snoring sounded, Hong Mei came close to Gu Sheng.

"Gu Sheng, are monsters difficult to deal with?"

Hearing this, Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows.

"Have you never killed a monster?"

"I have killed them, but I have never encountered any powerful ones. Can you tell me about the monsters today?"

After thinking about it, Gu Sheng lay on the ground, put his hands together behind his head, and talked about today's experience.

Hong Mei listened carefully and simply lay down next to him.

Gu Sheng was a little surprised and turned to look at her.

Hong Mei followed his example and put her hands behind her head, watching the stars while listening to him. She was extremely serious. Gu Sheng could see her curled eyelashes and high bridge of nose from the side, which made him couldn't help but curl up his lips.

"Want to kill a powerful monster with your own hands?"

After Gu Sheng finished speaking, Hong Mei immediately raised his head and looked at him, nodding seriously.

"I wonder if you can take me with you next time?"

"Of course, but you can't be brave. I promise Peerless Hermit to protect you."

"Don't worry, I won't, then we will make an agreement."

Seeing Hong Mei's extended finger, Gu Sheng smiled and hooked it up.

When the two people's hands hooked together, the smile on Gu Sheng's face became a little bigger.

Only now did he realize that girls' hands could be so small.

"Get some rest early, we have to go on the road tomorrow morning."

Hong Mei nodded and lay down next to him to rest without changing his place.

Gu Sheng summoned the small cauldron and shrouded it over everyone, then closed his eyes.

When it was daylight, Shi Lou and others brought back a lot of game.

"Brother Sheng, look, we got this all back!"

Seeing what he had in his hand, Gu Sheng pinched his eyebrows.

"Don't run around by yourself next time. What if you encounter a monster?"

"Brother Sheng, don't worry. We didn't dare to run too far. We were just fighting around. If there is any trouble, you will know it. Get up and eat quickly."

Gu Sheng had nothing to do with them, so he could only nod.

In the next few days, they kept walking on the road, until a week later, they finally arrived at the foot of Dongshan Mountain.

As soon as we arrived at the foot of the mountain, Gu Sheng felt a different atmosphere.

While everyone was still moving forward, he stretched out his hand to stop them with a serious look.

"Don't act rashly, people from the Fan Sect may be here."
