[Cultivation] Asking for a sword

After returning to the stone house, Gu Cheng meditated and rested all night, and felt that the spiritual power in his body had become a little more condensed. He had been in the third level of Qi training for two years, and he didn't need to wait for half a month now, just take a A grain of entraining qi pill is enough to break through the third layer if you think about it.

Gu Cheng once again condensed his breath and adjusted his breath. When the dawn dawned on the horizon, with the first ray of morning glow, the spiritual energy in his body immediately began to circulate, hitting the main veins of the whole body, so as to achieve the fourth level of Qi training.

The effect of the entraining qi pill was excellent, it quickly gathered the spiritual energy around him, and the soaring spiritual power allowed him to open up the tendons with ease, and the fourth level of Qi training was almost a natural success.

After wandering in this realm for so long, he finally took another step forward.

Calculating the time, he only has less than a year of kung fu. Even if he keeps taking pills, he will reach the seventh level of Qi training at most after a year. It is very difficult to do even the simplest compulsory tasks with such a cultivation base of.

But at this time, Xue Yang who met the day before yesterday knew of his cave for some reason, and came to look for him specially.

"Gu Daoyou, I didn't expect it was really you?"

"Of course, I'm curious how you knew I was here so quickly?"

"I also heard your name was accidentally mentioned by two disciples at the door, so I realized that you have really entered Zhengyang Sect and become an inner disciple." Xue Yang looked very happy despite being surprised.

Gu Chenghe chatted and laughed a few words, and then heard Xue Yang say: "I'm going to leave after staying with you for a while, my master told me to tell you the location of the trial and then I can go back."

"The bloody trial?"

"En? You don't know, oh yes, you've only been here not long ago?" Xue Yang immediately explained in detail: "The bloody trial is a trial of several sects united in a secret realm for the disciples of the Qi training period."

"Secret realm?"

"The secret realm is hidden in the cracks in the space. Only Daoist Nascent Soul can discover it. It is said that it is the wreckage left after the shattering of some high-level worlds. There are not only monsters, but also monsters and even ghosts inside."

Gu Cheng didn't speak yet, because Gu Xi was rushing towards him non-stop: "This is a secret realm. It is said that there are not a few thousand-year-old spiritual herbs and rare ores in the secret realm!"

"Do you know where they came from?"

"Of course, you know the Six Realms. The interface that existed in ancient times was broken for some reason. The secret realm is the legacy of these interfaces."

Gu Cheng thought about it and asked Xue Yang carefully about the trial.

Xue Yang couldn't help but said: "Are you going to participate? It's not a good place for a monk. And your current cultivation level is too dangerous."

Gu Cheng said, "I'm just curious."

Xue Yang looked at him suspiciously: "Forget it, anyway, you will know sooner or later, I might as well remind you first."

From his words, Gu Cheng finally understood why he was so obstructive.

Compared with the previous trials, the current trials are quite different, because the trials are more cruel every time, so they are also called the Scarlet Trials.

In the earliest days, various factions sent some younger disciples to compete. To put it bluntly, it was a friendly match. Whether it was Qi training or foundation building, even monks at the alchemy stage could compete. Although there were wins and losses, it was very difficult. Accidents are rare.

The later trials gradually changed, and bets began to rise, and finally even took out a secret realm with a high value as a bet. The disciple of which sect obtained the most valuable treasure would be the first. Trials not only test strength, but also luck, but in this way, the fight becomes extremely serious.

At the beginning, the monks in the foundation period also participated, but soon some sects raised their opinions. Although the foundation monks are nothing to the sect, they are the most important foundation anyway. Too much loss will definitely not affect the sect. Feel free to ignore.

So until now, only monks in the Qi training period can participate. In comparison, as long as you are not a genius with a foreign spirit root and a heavenly spirit root, it doesn't matter how much you lose, especially when the gambling is getting more and more intense. Subconsciously, each sect will no longer send out monks with good qualifications, but let some older disciples with high combat strength but older disciples join.

Although the death rate is high, the considerable rewards have attracted many disciples, because every treasure found in the trial can be counted as their own, and the sect is responsible for paying the equivalent value of spiritual stones to the sect that masters the secret realm .

Under normal circumstances, this kind of secret realm will be dealt with in advance by the sect that has mastered it in advance. Creatures with too high combat power will be killed directly, and treasures with high value will also be collected. The rest are suitable for dealing with during the Qi training period, but at this time In the secret realm, there are treasures, but the value is average, at most it is a century-old spirit grass, and the value is hardly more than a thousand spirit stones.

In every trial, the really high-value things are not from the secret realm, but the treasures used for betting when the alchemy stage monks from various sects lead the team to the secret realm trial, so every time the trial is over, you can see your own treasures. In the scene where the alchemy master either wins to laugh or loses to envy.

It is also because of this that if each sect's disciple wins, apart from the treasures found in the forbidden area, there will also be some rewards privately given out by monks in the alchemy stage.

In this way, no matter how high the casualty rate is, and under heavy rewards, it is not without brave men.

After getting to know about Gu Cheng's situation, Xue Yang also bid farewell to him, and after seeing him off, he was in the mood to talk to Gu Xi.

"You have also heard about the trial, so let's give up!"

Gu Xi curled his lips and said, "You really don't want to go?"

"No, the death rate is too high, it's not worth it."

"What if I help you upgrade to the seventh level of Qi training within a year?"

Gu Cheng was a little moved, but soon he became defensive again: "Why do you want to go to the secret realm so much, all the good things have been taken away by the sect, even if you went there."

Gu Xi hesitated for a while, and finally revealed something: "When you first saw me, I was in a sealed state, but this is only a part of my real body."

Gu Cheng was taken aback, and suddenly understood: "You mean that part of you is sealed in that secret realm."

"It can be said that, but I am the only subject, and there should be part of my strength."

Gu Cheng couldn't help muttering: "What the hell are you! You have to be separated and sealed, and you have to be assembled in the end?"

"I think it should be right. I only have my spiritual consciousness now, and I don't know where the other parts are sealed?"

"Who the hell are you? How could you be sealed?" Gu Cheng couldn't help asking.

"I don't know, I have been divided into many parts, and I can't remember if my strength is incomplete."

Gu Cheng always felt that the other party was hiding something from him, but right now he and Gu Xi still get what they need, if there is a breakdown, who will make alchemy for him?

"Well, if you can keep me safe, go!"

Gu Xi hesitated for a moment before saying: "Your cultivation base can be raised to the seventh floor at most, and any more foundations will be ruined, and not only that, but you will have to spend at least two years to sharpen the foundation afterwards, otherwise the foundation will not be firm, and you will definitely not be able to build it." base."

"Then I won't go." When Gu Cheng heard that there were so many restrictions, he immediately fought back and retreated.

"Then I won't make alchemy for you in the future, you can figure it out!" Gu Xi began to threaten.

"You are in my hands now." Gu Cheng's eyes turned cold.

"I've already escaped the seal. It's a big deal to change to another person. I think that Li Guanshi is not bad. It's the foundation building period again, and he's much better than you."

Gu Cheng snorted: "I knew you were a wicked old brat, always wanting to change jobs!"

"It's the same with you, you've never been on guard against me." Gu Xi said coldly, "This body should be mine, if it wasn't for you making a fool of me."

"If I really believed in you, I wouldn't be able to stand here properly now." Gu Cheng touched his chin: "Do you think I don't know that the soul of this body was swallowed by you in the end? Don't force me to die point!"

Gu Xi suddenly softened his tone, as if he had become that incomprehensible old stick again, and said relaxedly: "Come on, just tell me, do you want to continue to cooperate? As long as you promise to help me collect all the power, I can swear by the demon of my heart." To help you break through, if you have the strength, why do you need to look at other people's cold eyes, and wanting to take revenge on someone is just a matter of words."

"I will continue to cooperate with you, but I don't believe that the so-called inner demons can suppress you, so let's use our own abilities in the future!"

Gu Xi was silent for a long time before slowly laughing out loud; "Okay, I want to see what will happen to you in the end, whether it will be a complete failure or you will be alone!"

Gu Cheng still agreed to go to the secret realm, and at the same time, Gu Xi also promised to help him break through without reservation.

Because alchemy has been going on for some time, Gu Cheng has already made a small fortune by earning the price difference between herbs and elixirs back and forth, and he still has tens of thousands of spirit stones on hand.

In this situation, Gu Cheng was the first to do it, it was very simple, don't doubt it, he rushed into the shop at the foot of Zhengyangzong, took all the fancy things, and spent so much that he only had to buy herbs money, and then swaggered out in full armor.

Seeing that Gu Xi couldn't bear to look directly at him.

"What do you want to do? Show off, isn't it so vulgar?"

Gu Cheng stretched out a finger, shook it lightly, and there was a trace of murderous look on his face: "I just want to tell you that besides alchemy, there is a faster way to collect money."

Gu Xi looked puzzled, as if he had seen a psychopath who had taken the wrong medicine, or he had discovered Gu Cheng's suppressed and hidden nature for a long time.

I don't know why he thought of the illusion of Zhengyangzong, is it really like what Gu Cheng said, it has no influence at all?No, that was an inducement, exposing his nature that had been suppressed for seven years.

"I began to wonder what kind of person you were before."
