Early morning, inside Spirit Vine World.
The sun was rising and the fog was hazy.
I saw two figures of warriors fighting fiercely next to Spiritual Field in an empty space.
One of them was Ren Hei Xiong who had just broken through Three-star Warrior. He waved Lin Yi to create the martial arts Heavy Hammer for him, and used [Eight Forms Divine Hammer] with all his strength. Under the terrifying brute force, even the air roared.
As for the other person, he has a light and honest appearance. He is Lin Yi who specially led Gu He, a veteran member of Second Team, from Ancient Pool Village.
The Gu He True Qi was overflowing in front of my eyes, and my whole body seemed to have endless energy to vent.
Facing the unstoppable Ren Hei Xiong, Gu He seemed to be in a hurry, but every time it was in danger, a Invisible Gang Qi appeared around it to resist the fatal hammer blow.
After the two exchanged more than a hundred moves, Gu He barely mastered his own strength, Gang Yuan True Qi, and went from being a disadvantage in the fight to becoming more confident.
Outside the battlefield, Lin Yi is taking Yuanyuan to watch the battle.
Considering that the secret realm of 'Black Mountain' requires three-star warriors as the vanguard to help him find the so-called Black Mountain Card, Lin Yi, in addition to preparing to serve as Black Bear, also took advantage of the break to go to Gutan Village and bring over the old team member Gu He.
Among Militia Second Team and Gu He, apart from Gu Chenghu, they are the veteran players who have helped Lin Yi the most. (Note 1)
Lin Yi still remembers the scene when they met a Mirage Crow in the wilderness, and Gu He desperately carried him on his back to escape.
But compared to Gu Chenghu, Gu Man and other Captain, which have great potential, Gu He is Militia with mediocre martial arts qualifications.
Even if he breaks through and becomes a warrior with the help of Lin Yi, he is still an ordinary person who can only stay in the One-star Warrior realm for the rest of his life.
Lin Yi thinks that he has always kept [Martial Treasure Seed], which contains the inheritance of half-step Martial Saint Elder Qian and True Qi, which can help ordinary people reach the sky in one step.
I didn't use it before because Lin Yi was worried about Spirit Vine Child leaving a secret hand inside. Now that Spirit Vine Child is dead, he has no worries.
But even so, there is a great deal of uncertainty in how this thing depends.
After all, there may be hidden dangers in taking shortcuts. If [Martial Treasure Seed] is defeated, the destination of martial arts is probably the Elder Qian half-step Martial Saint realm.
So instead of considering Liu Bo, Ginger Frost and others among Gu Chenghu, Gu Man and Blue Star, Lin Yi picked out the obedient and honest Gu He among the old team members of Ancient Pool Village and gave [Martial Treasure Seed] to him.
[Martial Treasure Seed] contains Elder Qian's martial arts cultivation, and has Spirit Vine Child's energy. When Gu He is initially fused, its The One-star Warrior realm couldn't bear it at all. If Lin Yi hadn't refined and channeled the essence within [Martial Treasure Seed], I'm afraid Gu He would have been exploded by [Martial Treasure Seed].
When [Martial Treasure Seed] merged with Gu He, Gu He's level gradually increased. Later, in order to keep Gu He below Four-star Warrior, Lin Yi manually sealed up more than half of the energy of [Martial Treasure Seed].
Arena was on the ground, seeing Gu He relying on the golden finger of [Martial Treasure Seed] in his body, fighting with [Eight Forms Divine Hammer] Xiaocheng Ren Hei Xiong at a 50-50 draw, with no certainty of victory or defeat, Lin Yi couldn't help but nodded slightly.
It seems that he has chosen the right person. Although Gu He has ordinary martial arts qualifications, he can quickly adapt to the increase in realm brought by [Martial Treasure Seed]. As long as he makes up for the shortcomings of Gu He and External Skill realm, and then equips him with a handy Martial Spirit Artifact, I think Gu He will have no opponent under Four-star Warrior.
There are two people, Gu He and Ren Hei Xiong, working together in the secret realm of 'Black Mountain'. They should be able to find the so-called Black Mountain Token for him.
Of course, before the secret realm is found and opened, he will definitely have to train the two of them to increase their combat power as much as possible.
After leaving Spirit Vine World, Lin Yi went to the secret room of the Garrison Mansion.
Since the attempt to break through Martial Saint failed, Lin Yi has been constantly reflecting and summarizing in recent days to find the reasons for the failure.
Although Fusion Martial Saint Method is difficult, as long as it is successful, it will be able to lead the vast majority of Ancient Domain Martial Saint and lay the foundation for Immortal Martial Saint.
Lin Yi needs to make sure that after getting Martial Saint Pill, there will be no problems with the breakthrough steps to avoid wasting time.
But just as Lin Yi was meditating on Martial Saint Fusion Method's improvements, the door to the secret room suddenly opened slowly, and a woman wearing a green and white skirt slowly walked in.
Smelling the familiar fragrance, Lin Yi knew who it was without turning his head. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "Miss Gu entered my secret room without knocking. What do you mean?"
After obtaining the memories related to Qin Jian and Gu Tianxue, Lin Yi realized how disrespectful his attitude towards Gu Tianxue was.
You know, even after Qin Jian married Gu Family, he still treated Gu Tianxue with the utmost respect and did not dare to go beyond it.
The two of them are like master and servant.
The most important thing is that Gu Tianxue is not an unknown person like Martial Saint City.
It is rumored that although this woman is Innate Meridian Severance and will never be able to enter the realm of professional martial arts, she is talented and intelligent, proficient in Mystic Gate Formation, has special talents, and can see through other people's martial arts bottlenecks at a glance and provide guidance.
A few years ago, an expert Martial Saint realm even argued with Gu Tianxue about the secrets of martial arts, but failed and returned, claiming that this woman has amazing talents.
Anyway, if nothing else, the fact that he reached out to support Gu Tianxue that day was enough to make this woman doubt herself.
So during this period of time, Lin Yi could avoid Gu Tianxue, so he avoided her.
"You are my husband, and I need to knock on the door when I enter the secret room of my house?"
Lin Yi sneered, "Miss Gu, please don't joke. Qin doesn't dare to climb high. We all understand the relationship between us."
Gu Tianxue said no more. She walked slowly in the ton room, her blue eyes like a wave of water, and scanned the many bookshelves in the ton room.
Suddenly, she turned around and looked back at Yu: "They are all tricks. It seems that you remember my instructions to you, let you browse the tricks of the family and conquer the [Battle Halberd Technique] left by your master."
"In the competition a few days ago, I heard that you defeated Tai Shangxun with just a few moves. The weapon was wrapped with a layer of Gang-Breaking Substance. It seems that your [Battle Halberd Technique] was completed?"
Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat and he couldn't help but shake his head.
Gu Tianxue indeed investigated him in the past few days.
Lin Yi had no choice but to say, "It happens by chance, but Qin Master's [Battle Halberd Technique] is indeed perfect."
Gu Tianxue's face is like exquisite porcelain, and her skin is as delicate as snow. She showed a full smile and asked, "Opportunity? Lord Qin You might as well tell me what kind of opportunity can make a Purple Grade external skill suddenly perfect. In my memory, it seems that even in Martial Saint City, there is no such opportunity as you mentioned."
You know, even in Martial Saint City, there are many Martial Saint who cannot achieve a perfect state of Purple External Skill throughout their lives.
Lin Yi was not tempted by the appearance shown by Gu Tianxue. Instead, he said shamelessly and solemnly, "I told you it was chance. Miss Gu, it's better not to ask any more questions."
Hearing Lin Yi's answer, Gu Tianxue was certain that the Qin Jian in front of him was definitely a fake.
Even though the appearance of Qin Jian in front of him is not abnormal, and the cultivation level of True Qi is not abnormal, he can even control Tongguan Treasure that only Garrison Commander can control.
But Gu Tianxue can clearly feel that this Qin Jian is not the same person as the Qin Jian three years ago.
The Qin Jian three years ago didn't even dare to look at her, but the Qin Jian in front of him didn't seem to be afraid of her identity at all.
But who is it that he can replace Qin Jian without revealing any flaws, and even perfect the secret skills left by Qin Jian's Master?
At this moment, Gu Tianxue is full of curiosity about the origin of Lin Yi.
Seeing that Gu Tianxue was not leaving, Lin Yi couldn't help but said, "Miss Gu, Qin still has to practice hard. If you have nothing to do, why not go out and enjoy the flowers. Backyard's flowers are in full bloom, and the scenery is pleasant..."
"Although the scenery is nice, there is a bald bird that ruins the scenery. I am too lazy to go, but Lord Qin, when Xiao He and I arrived at Tong Pass that day, was it you who broke through Martial Saint realm?"
"No."
"But Martial Saint vision is emanating from your mansion."
Lin Yi refused to admit it and thought, "I don't know, but there are many experts in Ancient Domain. Maybe there is a certain half-step Martial Saint hiding in Tong Pass, and it was he who triggered the breakthrough vision."
"Maybe..."
Seeing that Lin Yi was already wary of her, Gu Tianxue knew that there would be no results if the conversation continued.
"Lord Qin, let me remind you, don't forget the agreement between us."
Finally, Gu Tianxue smiled softly and left the ton room.
Agreement?
What does this woman mean?
Lin Yi raised his eyebrows, thinking about the true agreement between Qin Jian and Gu Tianxue.
The agreement between the two stated that as long as Qin Jian could break through Martial Saint and gain a foothold in the Gu Family, then Gu Tianxue would not mind being a real couple with Qin Jian and would be committed to Qin Jian.
However, in Lin Yi's view, most of Gu Tianxue's words are tempting pie that cannot be seen or touched.
Although they had only been in contact for a few days, Lin Yi could see the arrogant character of Gu Tianxue beneath her beautiful face.
Even though Qin Jian is now Garrison Commander, he comes from a low background and has an ordinary appearance. Even if he breaks through and becomes Martial Saint, he may not be able to rank among the Martial Saints.
Lin Yi guessed that the reason why Gu Tianxue chose Qin Jian was probably because he regarded Qin Jian as a chess piece that could be driven to achieve his own goals.
Now Gu Tianxue doubted his identity and did not expose it in public. Perhaps he also wanted to take advantage of him...
In the afternoon, the sun shines high.
In Tong Pass Inner City, carriages came and went, and many inns were full of people.
"It's strange. Our Twelfth Tong Pass is located in a remote place. Except for our Inner City people, it has never been so lively. Why are more and more warriors gathering here in the past few days, and even the inn has no empty rooms."
"I heard that a secret realm that was only opened for a century is about to appear. There is a chance to break through Martial Saint in this secret realm."
"It's like this, no wonder..."
