Whispers continued to reach Gu Sheng's ears.
"This Gu Sheng really doesn't know the heights of the world"
"Senior Brother Xiao has never been defeated. He is dead."
"What a pity. I heard that he has a good talent for alchemy."
Gu Sheng ignored these comments and just patted Shen Qingtian lightly on the shoulder.
"We will find out in a month."
He paused.
"When I finish handling the matter at hand, I will help you solve Shen Qingyun."
Shen Qingtian stared at him blankly, wondering why he could be so calm.
In the depths of those eyes, there seemed to be golden flames burning quietly, making it difficult to see the depth.
"You"
What else did she want to say, but Gu Sheng had already turned around and left, her back as tall as a pine tree, and she gradually drifted away in the complicated gazes of everyone.
After leaving Martial Arts Stage, Gu Sheng went straight out of Great Desolation City.
The guard at the city gate saw the Linlang Pavilion token hanging on his waist and saluted respectfully, but there was a bit of regret in his eyes for another young man who did not know how to challenge Xiao Beixuan.
In the wasteland outside the city, the wind blew yellow sand.
Gu Sheng kept walking, thinking about the next plan in his mind.
"If you can achieve Glazed Golden Body, you can open another meridian."
He thought to himself and suddenly frowned.
"Aren't you tired after following us all the way?"
Gu Sheng stopped, his voice cold.
There was silence all around, except for the howling wind.
"Now that we are out of the city, there are no restrictions on flying in the air."
Gu Sheng presses the waist with his right hand.
"If you don't show up, you'll have no chance."
Still no answer.
Gu Sheng snorted coldly and was about to rise into the air, when suddenly.
"Pa bang bang" a burst of applause came from behind.
"As expected of someone who can attract Senior Brother Xiao's attention, he is very alert."
A feminine voice sounded.
Fifteen Dao Body shadows came out from all directions and surrounded Gu Sheng.
The leader was wearing a green shirt, with a sinister face, and was playing with a jade talisman in his hand.
Gu Sheng Looking around, the fifteen people are all sect-level experts! This kind of lineup is enough to surround and kill the masters who have just entered the king realm.
"Xiao Beixuan sent you here?"
Gu Sheng narrowed his eyes, and the true energy in his body was quietly circulating.
The man in green shirt chuckled.
"Why do you need to ask questions when you are about to die?"
Before he finished speaking, fourteen strong men from the sect took action at the same time! All kinds of true energy poured out like a torrent, and the air was squeezed until it exploded.
"Boom!"
The golden light behind Gu Sheng surged, and the shadow of Nine Dragon Universe Cauldron suddenly appeared.
Nine golden dragons circled the cauldron and let out a thundering roar.
A golden rainbow rose into the sky from the cauldron, covering Gu Sheng.
"What?!"
The man in green shirt's expression suddenly changed.
"This is."
Golden divine flames burned on the surface of Gu Sheng's body. His aura was rising steadily, which actually stalled the joint offensive of fourteen strong men in the sect.
"Is this all you can do?"
Gu Sheng sneered, with golden light in his eyes.
The man in green shirt gritted his teeth and threw a black bead.
"Go to hell!"
The black beads cut through the sky, and tiny cracks appeared in the space wherever they passed.
At the same time, fourteen attacks had arrived in front of Gu Sheng, and the true energy was intertwined into a network, blocking all escape routes.
Gu Sheng does not dodge or evade, his right hand becomes a claw, and the golden flame condenses into substance.
"Nine dragons bite the sky!"
"Roar"
Nine golden dragons flew out from the cauldron and faced fourteen attacks.
And he himself turned into a golden lightning and rushed straight towards the man in green shirt!
"North Star Immortal Slaying Sword chop!"
Gu Sheng gave a cold shout, and hundreds of golden qi swords poured down like meteors and fire showers.
Although those strong men in the sect reacted quickly, their escape speed was still a little slower in the face of this overwhelming sword force.
"No"
An old man in gray robes saw three qi swords heading straight for his life gate. He gritted his teeth and shouted loudly. He condensed the rich true energy between his palms and turned into a cyan shield in front of him.
"Boom!"
The golden and cyan lights collided fiercely, erupting with a deafening loud noise.
The ground cracked, gravel flew, and smoke spread over dozens of feet.
When the dust dissipated slightly, everyone's pupils shrank suddenly. Three blood holes as big as bowls appeared on the gray-robed old man's chest. Golden flames spread rapidly from the wounds, and burned the body of a strong sect-level man to ashes in the blink of an eye, leaving no bone residue.
"How is this possible?"
The man in green shirt turned pale, and the sword in his hand trembled slightly.
"Can't even block a blow from Elder Li's 'Qingyuan Shield'?"
Gu Sheng A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and with a flick of his finger, the remaining air sword turned around as if it were alive and continued to chase the fleeing people.
The golden flame drew a gorgeous trajectory in the air, and wherever it passed, the air was burned and distorted.
"Gu Sheng! Don't bully others too much!"
The man in green shirt suddenly took out a bead as black as ink from his arms, with a stern look in his eyes.
"You forced me to do this!"
He violently threw the black ball at Gu Sheng and shouted loudly at the same time.
"Everyone, retreat!"
Gu Sheng seemed careless, but in fact, his mental power had already locked onto the flying black bead.
At the moment when the golden sword was about to touch the bead.
"Bang!"
The black beads exploded without warning, and the thick black mist spread instantly, condensing into a rickety figure in the air.
It was an old man wearing a black cloak, with a haggard face like a mummy, and green flames dancing in the deep-set eye sockets.
"Huh?"
Gu Sheng frowned and his figure suddenly stopped.
An unprecedented sense of oppression fell from the sky, and the air within a hundred feet radius seemed to solidify.
Gu Sheng felt that his whole body sank, as if he was imprisoned by invisible shackles, and it was difficult to even move his fingers.
"Venerable Realm"
Gu Sheng's eyes were solemn.
The withered old man slowly raised his head, his green eyes locked on Gu Sheng like a poisonous snake.
At that moment, Gu Sheng felt a biting chill running from his back to the back of his head, and the pores all over his body shrank involuntarily.
"Junior."
The old man's voice was hoarse and dry, like two bones grinding together.
"Do you still remember Blood Saber Stronghold besides Wuyun City?"
Gu Sheng's pupils shrank.
"Are you the person behind Blood Saber Stronghold?"
"Not bad."
The old man slowly raised his skinny palms like chicken feet.
"I have been here for thousands of years, but you destroyed it all in one day. Today, it's time to settle the score."
Following his movements, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth converged crazily, forming a transparent cage with a diameter of dozens of feet, trapping Gu Sheng in it.
The warriors watching the battle from a distance were horrified to find that the movement of the true energy in their bodies had become sluggish. Some of the weak ones even fell to their knees directly, bleeding from their seven orifices.
"Field suppression. Is this the power of the Venerable Realm?"
An old man with white beard said tremblingly, his eyes full of fear.
The withered old man turned a deaf ear to the commotion around him, his green eyes never leaving Gu Sheng.
"I give you two choices."
He held out a finger.
"First, hand over your trump card to destroy Myriad Flow Sect, and serve me as your master for thousands of years."
He extended a second finger.
"Second, death."
Before he finished speaking, the ground beneath the old man's feet suddenly collapsed, and cracks spread rapidly like a spider web.
The land for dozens of miles around began to sink, and several small hills in the distance collapsed suddenly, sending smoke and dust into the sky.
Some warriors who had no time to escape were crushed into blood mist by invisible pressure, and screams occurred one after another.
"Three breaths of time."
The old man said calmly, but his voice echoed in everyone's heart like a death knell.
"Choose."
"Three breaths have passed. Junior, it's time to give me an answer."
The shadow of the gray-robed old man was suspended in mid-air, and his broad-sleeved robe moved automatically in the absence of wind.
His face was haggard, but his eyes were like two dancing fires, looking down at Gu Sheng below.
The spiritual energy within a hundred feet radius seemed to solidify, and even the sound of the wind disappeared.
Gu Sheng stood on top of the ruins. The plaque of the Myriad Flow Sect was inserted diagonally at his feet and broken into two pieces.
He held the blood-stained sword in his right hand, and his left hand was behind his back, his knuckles slightly white.
"Answer?"
Gu Sheng raised his head and sneered at the corner of his mouth.
"I, Gu Sheng, have never learned to bow to evil cultivators in my entire life."
The ghostly fire in the old man's eyes suddenly swelled, and then he burst into laughter like Ye Xiao.
"It's interesting. A mere junior in the Xuan Realm dares to be presumptuous in front of me. Myriad Flow Sect is just a chess piece, but you can destroy it. You make me a little curious."
Gu Sheng did not answer, and the spiritual power in his body was quietly running.
He could feel that the phantom of this old man was at least the existence of the Venerable Realm. Even if it was just an incarnation, it was far from what he could contend with now.
"That's all."
The old man's shadow suddenly stopped smiling.
"Since you don't know how to praise me, I will send you on your way first and then transform you into a corpse puppet. When the time comes, you can use Soul Searching Technique to know what I want to know."
Before he finished speaking, the phantom of the old man raised his skinny right hand and pressed it down.
"Boom"
The world changes color!
The originally clear sky was instantly covered by dark clouds, and countless black bolts hung down from the clouds, like thousands of sky-swallowing pythons, strangling towards Gu Sheng.
Every step of the exercise contains poison that corrodes spiritual power. Wherever it passes, even the air makes a "chichi" sound.
"Die."
The old man said indifferently.
Gu Sheng's pupils shrank suddenly, and his whole body muscles tightened.
Just when the first black streak was about to touch the corner of his clothes.
"Buzz!"
A dazzling golden light shot up from behind him, illuminating half of the sky.
In the golden light, a simple bronze tripod slowly emerged. Nine lifelike golden dragons were coiled around the tripod, and each dragon scale was carrying mysterious runes.
"Nine Dragon Universe Cauldron, take it!"
Gu Sheng shouted loudly.
"Rumble"
The golden light at Dingkou flourished and turned into a huge whirlpool.
Those menacing black horses were like mud cows entering the sea, and were swallowed up by the whirlpool.
What's even more frightening is that the whirlpool of golden light begins to tear apart the old man's shadow itself!
"What?!"
The old man's shadow finally changed color.
"This is... an ancient treasure?!"
He tried to break away, but found that his shadow was being pulled towards the mouth of the tripod little by little.
The black trainers who were originally controlled by him now became chains that bound him.
"Junior! How dare you!"
The old man's shadow roared angrily.
"If you destroy this incarnation of this deity, his Japanese deity will come in person and will crush you to ashes!"
Gu Sheng sneered.
"Old guy, there's so much nonsense."
"Ah"
In an unwilling roar, the old man's shadow was completely sucked into Nine Dragon Universe Cauldron.
The nine golden dragons on the tripod's body lit up at the same time, sealing the tripod's mouth, and the screams could still be faintly heard coming from inside.
After a few breaths, the world returned to clarity.
Gu Sheng breathed a long sigh of relief, and beads of sweat broke out on his forehead.
He quickly made a secret, and Nine Dragon Universe Cauldron turned into a golden light and sank into his body.
This treasure is his biggest trump card. Every time it is used, it consumes a lot of spiritual power. Unless it is a life or death situation, it will never be used easily.
"Master. The incarnation of the master was destroyed?"
A trembling voice came from far away.
Gu Sheng turned around and saw a dozen sect realm warriors standing there blankly, with disbelief written on their faces.
The man in the green shirt who was headed was even more ashen-faced, and the long sword in his hand fell to the ground with a clang.
Gu Sheng's eyes flashed coldly.
These people showed no mercy when they besieged him just now, now is the best time to deal with them.
"Everyone, it's time to hit the road."
he whispered.
The left hand flashed with light, and the ground suddenly shook violently.
"What?!"
The man in green shirt exclaimed.
"Puff puff puff"
Dozens of vines as black as ink sprouted from the ground, each one as thick as an adult's arm, and its surface was covered with sharp barbs.
These vines were like living creatures, instantly wrapping around the bodies of those sect-level warriors.
"It's Heavenly Demon Vine! Run away!"
Someone recognized this notorious demon plant.
But it was too late.
"Hoo"
Gu Sheng breathed a long sigh of relief and sat cross-legged on the top of the barren mountain.
Heavenly Demon Vine's vines wriggled around him like living creatures, forming an airtight defensive network.
"This time it's really dangerous."
Gu Sheng looked down at his palm, and the mark of Nine Dragon Universe Cauldron was looming in the palm.
"If this treasure tripod hadn't suddenly become powerful, I'm afraid..."
Recalling the terrifying coercion when the old man's shadow appeared, Gu Sheng still felt lingering fear.
The existence of the Venerable Realm, even if it is just an incarnation, is enough to wipe out a Heavenly Martial Realm monk like him.
"However, this treasure tripod seems to have a special suppressive effect on the warrior incarnation."
Gu Sheng had a glint in his eyes as he tried to put his spiritual power into the cauldron.
"Buzz"
A powerful repulsive force instantly bounced his mental energy back, causing his sea of consciousness to sting.
"Hiss"
Gu Sheng took a deep breath, but did not give up.
"Come again!"
Once, twice, three times.
Every attempt ended in failure, but Gu Sheng keenly discovered that his mental power was becoming solidified at a speed visible to the naked eye during repeated impacts.
"Interesting."
Gu Sheng The corner of his mouth raised slightly.
"Although it is impossible to explore the situation inside the cauldron, it is a good way to temper your mental strength."
He took out two storage rings, which he got from those mummies.
With a sweep of his mental power, he could see all the items inside.
"As expected, he is from Great Desolation City."
Gu Sheng sneered.
"It seems that old man is determined to kill me."
In addition to the regular spirit stone pills, the storage ring also contains several jade slips recording the secret techniques of tracking.
Gu Sheng crushed them into pieces without hesitation and turned them into powder and scattered in the wind.
"Heavenly Demon Vine, be alert all around."
Gu Sheng With a thought, Heavenly Demon Vine rooted in the surroundings immediately stretched out more vines, covering a ten-mile radius with an airtight seal.
After confirming the safety, Gu Sheng took out two things from his storage ring: a golden elixir and a crystal clear Glass Heart.
"Eighth grade Golden Body Pill, Glass Heart"
Gu Sheng's eyes flashed with heat.
"Tantai Bing Tang and Bai Yu are quite generous."
He sacrificed a simple alchemy furnace.
The alchemy furnace is completely black and its surface is engraved with complex patterns. It is what he usually uses for alchemy.
