"Qingfeng my son."
This voice is like the spring breeze blowing on the face, and like the flowing of a clear spring, containing indescribable love and longing.
Situ Qingfeng was shaken violently, his eyes instantly turned red, and two lines of hot tears rolled down uncontrollably.
"Is this really you, mother?"
His voice was hoarse, and his hands stretched forward unconsciously, but when they touched the woman's shadow, they passed through her body.
The woman said softly with pain in her eyes.
"When my mother died, you were still an infant, with a wrinkled face, like a little monkey that hadn't grown yet."
As she spoke, she covered her lips and smiled softly, but tears filled her eyes.
"I didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, he would grow up to be so handsome."
Situ Qingfeng was choked with sobs and words were stuck in his throat. The woman suddenly looked solemn and tapped his brow with her slender jade fingers.
"Time is of the essence, let's accept the inheritance first."
A bit of golden light bloomed from her fingertips, Situ Qingfeng's eyes suddenly became blank, and her body slowly floated into the air, wrapped in a cocoon of golden light.
Gu Sheng stood aside quietly, taking in the whole scene.
He noticed that when the woman performed the technique, the ancient aura contained in the golden light was beyond the comparison of ordinary techniques.
The woman turned to face Gu Sheng and bowed solemnly.
"Thank you fellow Daoist for saving my son's life."
Gu Sheng Brows raised slightly, he didn't reveal Soul Power. How did this woman see through it?
Seemingly sensing his doubts, the woman smiled sweetly.
"Before my incarnation, I was a golden roc. I was born with a pair of divine eyes that can see the essence of all things. Although my fellow Daoist is deeply hidden, under the divine eyes, there is no way to hide the cultivation of the soul."
"That's it."
Gu Sheng suddenly asked.
"I wonder what the connection between Madam and Golden Winged Great Peng is?"
The woman sighed.
"The blood of Golden Winged Great Peng does flow through our ancestors, but with the passage of generations, the bloodline has become thinner and is no longer the same as the pure blood Golden Winged Great Peng."
She raised her hand and pointed to the golden roc statue in the center of the hall.
"That is the mark left by our ancestors."
Gu Sheng looked in the direction of her finger and saw a faint golden light flowing in the eyes of the statue, staring at her like a living creature.
His heart moved, and he faintly felt an ancient and majestic aura.
"In order to repay the kindness of my Daoist friend, I am willing to offer three drops of my life essence and blood."
As the woman spoke, she touched her heart with her right hand, and three drops of bright blood slowly emerged, floating in her palm.
The moment the essence and blood appeared, the spiritual energy in the hall suddenly boiled.
Gu Sheng The true energy in the body surged uncontrollably, and every cell was clamoring for desire.
The energy contained in that essence and blood was purer than any treasure he had ever seen.
"This"
Gu Sheng showed a rare expression of surprise. The great demon's natal essence and blood, especially the essence and blood containing the Golden Winged Great Peng bloodline, is enough to cause a bloody storm in the outside world.
The woman explained.
"This essence and blood can not only help Daoist friends break through the realm, but also repair the shortcomings on the martial arts path. Although Daoist friends have a strong foundation, there are still minor flaws, and this essence and blood can just make up for it."
Gu Sheng suppressed the restless Qi in his body and solemnly took three drops of blood essence. The essence and blood immediately turned into three warm currents and penetrated into his meridians, making the pores all over his body relax.
"Thank you madam for your generous gift."
Gu Sheng thanks you sincerely. The value of these three drops of blood far exceeded what he had to pay to save Situ Qingfeng.
When the woman saw that he accepted it, her expression relaxed slightly, and then she showed some hesitation.
"I have something else to ask of you."
"But it doesn't matter."
"I awakened my ancestral bloodline during my body's transformation. I would like to ask my fellow Daoist for permission to turn the power of this bloodline into a complete inheritance and hand it over to Qingfeng."
The woman said with sincere eyes.
"Of course, in exchange"
Gu Sheng raised his hand to interrupt.
"There is no need to exchange. Your son and I are already life-and-death friends. I will take care of this matter."
The woman was startled, obviously not expecting him to agree so readily.
She took a deep look at Gu Sheng and suddenly smiled.
"My fellow Daoist has a big heart, and I admire you."
She knew very well that with the soul cultivation level displayed by Gu Sheng, her remaining soul would be unable to resist if it were to be taken by force. The other party was so cheerful, which actually made her feel a little guilty.
"It's true.
"The woman said frankly.
"The remnant soul of my body has been attached to the body for many years, and I have already noticed that my Daoist friend is extraordinary. When I saw him today, he was indeed a dragon among men."
Gu Sheng smiled lightly.
"Madam, you are overestimating me. I think your son is extremely talented, and with a mother like Madam, his achievements in the future will be limitless. It is also a blessing for me to have a good relationship today."
Appreciation flashed in the woman's eyes, she pondered for a moment, and then suddenly lowered her voice.
"That being the case, I would like to give you another opportunity. I know that Dao Yi is in a secret place, and a complete body of Golden Winged Great Peng is buried there."
Gu Sheng's pupils suddenly contracted. The complete body of Golden Winged Great Peng? If this news spreads, it will be enough to shock the entire Cultivation World!
"Is this true?"
Even with Gu Sheng's character, he couldn't help but breathe quickly.
The woman nodded solemnly.
"Absolutely true.
That is the secret realm discovered by our ancestors, and it is guarded by the remnant soul of Golden Winged Great Peng. After the ancestors were given a golden feather, the remaining soul disappeared on its own, waiting only for the destined person to open it. "
As she spoke, a little golden light gathered on her fingertips, and with a flick, a stream of information was transmitted into Gu Sheng's mind.
It was a complicated map, marking the location of the secret realm.
"In exchange.
"The woman's expression turned serious.
"I just ask fellow Daoist to take care of Qingfeng when he encounters a life-or-death crisis in the future."
Gu Sheng digested the information in his mind and smiled casually after a moment.
"Madam, you are too worried. Since your son and I are close friends of life and death, I will never sit idly by while seeing him in danger. I accepted this secret information shamelessly."
The woman was relieved and bowed again.
"Thank you, fellow Daoist. Qingfeng is lucky to have a friend like you."
She looked up at Situ Qingfeng, who was wrapped in golden light, her eyes full of love.
"Next, I will devote all the power of my remaining soul to complete the origin inheritance for Qingfeng. The aura of this place will become extremely rich due to the inheritance, which will be of great benefit to fellow Daoists in refining the essence and blood. Fellow Daoists may wish to practice here."
Gu Sheng was moved when he heard this. The aura emitted by the Shapeshifting Great Demon's original bloodline is several times purer than that gathered by the top-level Spirit Gathering Array. It is indeed a rare opportunity for cultivation.
"Thank you for your help, senior!"
Gu Sheng clasped his fists and bowed, bowing deeply towards the hazy female silhouette. The spiritual energy floating in the void seemed to be pulled, forming a small vortex around him.
The phantom of the woman gently raised her jade hand, her broad sleeves brushing past her like clouds.
"It's fate, no need to say thank you."
Her voice seemed to come from ancient times, with an ethereal echo.
"These three drops of natal essence and blood are condensed by my lifelong cultivation. I hope you can make good use of them."
Before he finished speaking, the female figure suddenly waved her sleeves.
The remnant soul of Situ Qingfeng was wrapped in a blue aura, as if being pulled by invisible hands, and instantly integrated into the altar in the center of the hall.
"Boom——"
The entire hall trembled violently, and the originally calm spiritual energy suddenly became violent.
Gu Sheng felt like his eyes were blurred. The concentration of spiritual energy around him skyrocketed at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, it was more than a thousand times denser than the outside world! The storm formed by spiritual energy raged in the hall, lighting up the ancient runes on the ground one by one.
"This is."
Gu Sheng's pupils shrank suddenly, and he could feel that every inch of his skin was greedily absorbing this extremely pure spiritual energy.
"Sit cross-legged and start refining."
The woman's phantom voice sounded in his mind.
"The first drop is the most overbearing and requires perseverance to resist."
Gu Sheng did not dare to neglect and immediately sat cross-legged in the center of the storm.
He took out the jade bottle from his arms and carefully poured out a drop of golden-red blood.
As soon as the essence and blood appeared, it exuded a heart-stopping pressure that even stagnated the surrounding spiritual energy storm.
"Gudong——"
The moment the essence and blood entered his mouth, Gu Sheng felt a hot torrent rush straight from his throat to his dantian, and then exploded!
"Ah!"
He couldn't help but let out a cry of pain, and the meridians throughout his body felt like they were being burned by fire.
The overbearing energy surged through his body, causing the meridians wherever it passed to break, and then quickly reorganize and widen under the nourishment of essence and blood.
"Hang on!"
The phantom woman's voice sounded a bit urgent.
"The reshaping of meridians is the beginning of rebirth!"
Gu Sheng gritted his teeth and veins popped out on his forehead.
He could clearly feel that his meridians were being forcibly widened to more than three times their original size! At the same time, the rich spiritual energy in the hall seemed to have found an outlet and poured into his body crazily.
"Click——"
There was a soft sound in the body, and the original shackles of cultivation were broken. Yellow Martial Realm's peak aura burst out from Gu Sheng's body, shaking away the surrounding spiritual energy storm.
"Is this a breakthrough?"
Gu Sheng was shocked.
He could feel that his true energy was several times purer than before, and his energy was running at an astonishing speed. And all of this is just the result of refining the first drop of blood essence!
Just when Gu Sheng was immersed in the joy of breakthrough in cultivation, the entire secret realm suddenly shook violently.
"No, the secret realm is about to collapse!"
The female shadow's voice was a bit urgent.
"My power is about to be exhausted and I can no longer maintain this space."
Gu Sheng looked up suddenly.
"Senior! Then Senior Situ—"
"The breeze has become one with the hall. This is his choice."
The phantom figure of the woman began to become blurry.
"You remember, the day when all three drops of blood essence and blood are refined."
Before she could finish her words, the entire hall was suddenly engulfed in dazzling white light.
Gu Sheng felt his eyes go dark, and his body seemed to be torn into countless pieces.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, Ye Jianjia fell heavily to the hard ground.
Ignoring the pain in her body, she immediately stood up and looked around cautiously.
"Is this the village at the entrance to the secret realm?"
Dozens of warriors were lying around, all with dazed expressions on their faces. Further away, the original entrance to the secret realm has disappeared, replaced by a distorted space fluctuation.
"The energy has been restored!"
someone shouted in surprise.
Ye Jianjia quickly ran his mental skills, and sure enough he found that the suppressed true energy was flowing through the meridians again. But she had no time to rejoice at the moment, her eyes anxiously searching for that familiar figure in the crowd.
"Gu Sheng. Gu Sheng!"
She called softly, with a tremor that could not be concealed in her voice.
No response.
Ye Jianjia's heart sank a little bit.
She forced herself to calm down and released her mental power, exploring an area of hundreds of meters inch by inch. However, no matter how she searched, she could not feel the familiar scent.
"How come."
She murmured to herself, her face gradually turning pale.
"Have you heard? An astonishing power fluctuation erupted in the great hall in the far north!"
Not far away, several warriors were talking in low voices.
"I saw with my own eyes that a golden light shot straight into the sky, and then the entire secret realm began to collapse!"
"Someone must have had an incredible opportunity!"
Ye Jianjia heard the words, with a light of hope in his eyes.
She walked quickly towards those people.
"Excuse me, have you ever seen a young man wearing green clothes and carrying a heavy sword on his back?"
Several people looked at each other and finally shook their heads.
"Girl, it was so chaotic when the secret realm collapsed, no one paid attention to anyone else."
An older warrior sighed.
"But those who are close to the main hall will either have great opportunities or"
He didn't say any more, but the meaning was already obvious.
Ye Jianjia's eyes turned red instantly.
She bit her lower lip until she tasted blood. No, Gu Sheng would not force herself to calm down so easily. Maybe he was just transported to another place?
At this moment, a suffocating pressure suddenly enveloped the entire audience!
"It's the Heavenly Martial Realm strong man!"
someone exclaimed.
Everyone turned their heads to look involuntarily, and saw a Dao Body figure slowly walking out of the twisted space.
The man was dressed in white, but one of his right arms was missing, and his empty sleeves were fluttering in the wind.
"Shen Qingyun?!"
Ye Jianjia's pupils shrank, he subconsciously took a few steps back and disappeared into the crowd.
There was dead silence. Everyone was frightened by the coercion exuded by Shen Qingyun, and they didn't even dare to breathe. What is even more shocking is that this genius of the Great Desolation Sacred Academy actually broke one arm!
"Gu! Sheng!"
Shen Qingyun's eyes were red, and he squeezed out these two words from between his teeth, his voice containing overwhelming anger.
"I, Shen Qingyun, swear to God that I will avenge this broken arm!"
His mental power swept across the entire place, but he also couldn't find the figure that made him hate him to the core.
"Impossible"
Shen Qingyun frowned.
"Source of Annihilation was destroyed, how could he die like this?"
Thinking of the changes in the Far North Hall, a speculation that made him even more angry came to his mind - Gu Sheng is probably still alive and has received unimaginable opportunities!
This thought made Shen Qingyun almost crazy.
He was a powerful Heavenly Martial Realm, a genius of the Great Desolation Sacred Academy, but his arm was cut off by a Yellow Martial Realm boy, and the other party might have been a blessing in disguise!
"Ah!"
Shen Qingyun looked up to the sky and roared, and the pressure of the Heavenly Martial Realm exploded without reservation. All the warriors within a hundred meters were suppressed by this force and fell to their knees. Some of the weaker ones even vomited blood.
"Get out! Get out of here!"
he roared.
As if they were being pardoned, everyone quickly dispersed and fled.
Ye Jianjia was mixed in the crowd. After hearing Shen Qingyun's words, he felt a little relieved - at least he was sure that Gu Sheng was probably still alive!
She took one last look at the direction where the secret realm disappeared, gritted her teeth, turned around and galloped away in the direction of the Imperial Sect.
"Holy Son! This is you."
Several disciples wearing Great Desolation Sacred Academy costumes hurriedly came forward, and when they saw Shen Qingyun's broken arm, they all looked horrified.
Shen Qingyun's face was so gloomy that water could drip from his face.
