[Cultivation] Asking for a sword

"Junior Sister Zhao, that kid has come out!"

"Is he alone?" Zhao Yuqiu looked not far from Fangshi.

"It seems that there are still some people sneaking behind, they should be some casual cultivators." The one who spoke was a burly man, Xu Gu, an outer disciple of Zhengyang Sect.

The beautiful woman frowned: "Trouble, brother, you go over and warn those people, I will follow the target, and I will attack when you come back."

"Okay, it has been delayed for so long, who knows if the treasures on his body have been exhausted, and if he doesn't seize this opportunity, who knows when he will go down the mountain again." Xu Da's eyes showed a hint of greed: "We have agreed in advance , Li Guanshi also promised that the Foundation Establishment Pill belongs to me."

A trace of disgust flashed in Zhao Yuqiu's eyes, but soon he became smiling again.

"Senior brother Xu, don't worry, sister, when will I not keep my word?"

"Hey, that's fine."

I don't know how long it took, but the surroundings suddenly became much quieter. Gu Cheng was a little surprised by the quietness of the road, and then became vigilant in his heart. It seemed that this time there was indeed something hard to do.

Gu Cheng didn't want to startle the snake, so he pretended to be unresponsive and walked forward.

There was a crackling sound from behind.

He had been prepared for a long time, turned around and avoided it, and looked back, two plum-shaped darts and an egg-sized ice bomb fell on the ground.

A man and a woman just surrounded him one after the other.

When Gu Cheng saw that woman, he couldn't help but sneered, she was indeed an acquaintance.

It seems that he was targeted as soon as he left the sect, and he has no intention of letting go.

Holding two daggers in his hands, Zhao Yuqiu blinked at Gu Cheng, covered his mouth with a coquettish smile and said, "Uncle Gu, what a coincidence, we met again so soon."

The man on the other side is tall and burly, and his cultivation has reached the ninth level of Qi training, he waved the long knife in his hand, looked at Gu Cheng and said with disdain: "What uncle, the cultivation level of the fourth level of Qi training, if you It's not because of shit luck, what qualifications do you have to be above us."

"Senior brother Xu is right at all! Gu Cheng, if you want to survive, you must quickly hand over everything on your body, or you will die in vain."

Zhao Yuqiu said so, but he didn't hold back his hands at all, and swung his swords like the wind, forcing Gu Cheng to use his light body in a hurry and retreat to block.

He had a guess in his heart, knowing that not many people came in with the Ascension Order, and the only person who would want to take action against him was Li Da. Although he didn't take action right now, he had obviously told others the news.

One Qi training level [-] and one Qi training level [-] level, it is impossible for him to fight recklessly.

For now, the only thing to do is to take some risks.

Xu Gu is the main one to take action now, and Zhao Yuqiu is just assisting at the side, blocking Gu Cheng's escape route by the way.

Soon, there were three or four wounds on Gu Cheng's body, but they were not deep, because he just spent a lot of spiritual stones to buy a top-grade protective spiritual weapon, the golden silk armor, which can withstand one or two, but This consumes too much spiritual power. At most, he can activate the two upper spiritual weapons at the same time for a stick of incense. When the spiritual power is exhausted, he can only be slaughtered.

Seeing that most of his attacks were reduced by Gu Cheng's spirit weapon, Zhao Yuqiu couldn't help but frowned, and said to Xu Gu: "He has a lot of treasures on him, let's do it with all his strength, and solve it early."

Xu Gu said: "Don't worry."

Then he also slashed harder, trying to kill him with every move.

Fighting the price of being injured, Gu Cheng seized an opportunity and quickly threw the Tianlei Zi, which had been secretly held in his hand, towards Xu Gu. He sent all his spiritual power into the armor on his body, and retreated sharply.

Xu Gu was startled when he saw clearly what fell on his side, and immediately seemed to run away, but it was obviously too late, a huge roar sounded, accompanied by two screams.

Gu Cheng also suffered quite a blow, but fortunately he was prepared, so he only suffered some minor injuries.

But the two people on the opposite side were not so lucky. Although Zhao Yuqiu was only slightly affected, but her cultivation level was not high, she couldn't effectively defend herself at all. Shiver looked clearly seriously injured.

But Xu Gu was worse than her, because he was the closest, and he didn't take precautions in time, his arm was blown off, and now he fell to the ground without a sound, not knowing whether he was dead or alive.

Gu Cheng walked over, first slashed at Xu Gu's heart, and after making sure that he was not alive, he turned and walked towards Zhao Yuqiu who was half kneeling on the ground.

This woman with a beautiful face and beautiful appearance is now in a much more embarrassing situation. The original beautiful appearance has been blown into a bloody mess, with dense wounds all over her body, and her snow-white gauze skirt is also tattered and covered with blood and dust.

Gu Cheng pried her chin up with his sword, and asked forcefully, "Who else knows about the Immortal Ascension Order except the two of you?"

One eye of Zhao Yuqiu was blown blind, and the only eye looked at Gu Cheng in horror, crying and shouting: "It was Li Guanshi who told me, I don't know if he told others, please. You, let me go! I can identify Li Da for you, as long as you spare me!"

Gu Cheng lowered his head and thought for a while. For them, the fewer people who know about this matter, the better. Only in this way can they obtain greater benefits.

Although Li Da told these two people, he was only using them as gunmen. He couldn't deal with him blatantly, but facing these two ordinary outer disciples, he could do whatever he wanted.

Gu Cheng lowered his head and looked at the woman kneeling in front of him, his eyes were cold but still cold, letting the other party cry and beg, he just raised his sword and quickly cut Zhao Yuqiu's throat.

It's not that he didn't want to save Zhao Yuqiu's life, and let her correct Li Da at that time, but in this way, the reason why he entered Zhengyangzong by fate will become well known. To kill him, with his current cultivation base, he really wouldn't have the slightest resistance, unless he stayed in Zhengyangzong all the time, but in half a year he would have to accept the compulsory mission, and it was impossible not to go down the mountain.

In this way, you can only pretend that nothing happened.

After taking off the storage bags of the two people, Gu Cheng directly burned their bodies with a fireball technique, and then dealt with the scene to ensure that there were no traces left, and immediately ran to the sect.

It's certainly interesting for him to go out with a face showing off his wealth, but it's not easy to attract too many words.

It wasn't until he returned to his cave that he felt at ease. After taking a few wound medicines to recuperate for a while, Gu Cheng was in the mood to look at his spoils. The combined value of the two people's things was about 1000 spirit stones, which was considered A windfall.

But when you think about it, one Tianleizi is one thousand spirit stones, so there is really no profit.

After healed his injuries completely, Gu Cheng simply retreated directly, preparing to use Tianleizi to strengthen his cultivation base. As for Li Da, with his current cultivation base, he was really powerless, so he had to endure it for a while, and then look for opportunities in the future revenge.

This retreat lasted for half a year.

Sure enough, there is no time for cultivation, and half a year passed in a blink of an eye. By the time Gu Cheng left the customs and received the compulsory task, he was already a monk at the seventh level of Qi training. To be honest, the speed of being promoted to the third level in one year It is already considered rare.

However, Gu Cheng knew that his cultivation base was forcibly improved entirely by elixir. Not to mention his foundation was superficial, and he had accumulated a lot of erysipelas in his body. In terms of actual cultivation base, he was about the same as a monk who had just entered the sixth floor.

And now because of taking too many pills, he can't even touch the threshold of the seventh level of Qi training. If he wants to go further, he has to follow Gu Xi's request to find the power he sealed in the secret realm.

Now the time has come, he must first participate in the compulsory mission.

The Qiandian Hall in Bairen Mountain is a place where inner disciples specialize in receiving missions. There are many disciples coming and going, but Gu Cheng is not very conspicuous inside.

He looked at the task book in his hand and couldn't help frowning.

Suppress the monsters that caused chaos in Huangqi Mountain.

According to the information, these monsters are called ice-armored pythons, which are first-level monsters of the ice attribute. They like to come and go in groups. Generally, there will be at least one male python and three or four female pythons in a lair.

Level [-] monsters are only equivalent to the level of Qi training period, level [-], [-] and [-] monsters are equivalent to the level before and after foundation establishment, level [-], [-] and [-] monsters are equivalent to the level before and after alchemy, level [-] monsters are equivalent to In the early, middle and late stages of Yuanying, monsters over tenth level are collectively called the Demon Emperor.

It is said that only the legendary master of the Valley of the Thousand Monsters can reach this level.

Under normal circumstances, monsters are stronger than monks of the same level, especially monsters in the Qi training period and foundation building period. After all, the physical strength of monks at this time is far weaker than them. Only after the natal magic weapon can it really be able to contend.

Not long after Gu Cheng walked out the door, he felt someone watching him.

When he looked back, he saw Li Da standing at the entrance of the main hall, showing him a sinister smile. Gu Cheng immediately understood that this time he would receive such a task, someone must have tampered with it behind his back.

In this way, if he chose to go to Huangqi Mountain, even if he was lucky enough to kill the monsters, he might be killed when he came back.

Gu Cheng thought for a while, and gave Li Da the same smile back. Anyway, it is impossible for him to go to Huangqi Mountain to do such a compulsory task.

Li Da frowned, he was a little confused about Gu Cheng's plan, out of habitual caution and prudence, he waited until Gu Cheng left.

He immediately went to ask the steward who received Gu Cheng just now.

The other party's answer surprised him for a moment, and then he couldn't help but sneer.

"The bloody trial, hmph, I thought he had some good solution, but it was just a dead end."

The sect has a rule that those who participate in the trial can be exempted from a mandatory task.

Seeing his appearance, the steward was a little surprised: "Why, do you have any grudge against him?"

The disdain on Li Da's face subsided a little, and he pretended to say lightly: "I have two juniors who died at his hands, but because of the school rules, I can't make a move."

Gu Cheng did not go back to the Dongfu, but came to the outer gate area of ​​Zhengyangzong. There is a small market here, which sells things used by monks in the Qi training period. The quality is not as good as that of the inner gate, but it is cheaper, and the variety There are many, the spirit weapon in his hand will be prepared separately, and there is still no shortage of talisman pills. The purpose of coming here is not for these, but to find someone.

A person who survived several bloody trials safely.

He chose to refuse the compulsory task of going to Huangqi Mountain, and changed to participate in this year's trial. Although it was because he agreed to Gu Xi and disrupted Li Da's plan, the bloody trial is essentially better than those on Huangqi Mountain. Monster beasts are more dangerous, the only advantage is that they are not afraid of Li Da playing tricks on him during the trial period.

According to his own estimate, with his current cultivation base and the addition of various spiritual weapons and talismans, his strength can only compete with that of a monk at the seventh level of Qi training. Tianleizi, under unexpected circumstances, can seriously injure a tenth-level Qi training master.

But this kind of strength is not worth mentioning in front of the bloody trial. Almost none of the disciples who participated in the trial every year and below the tenth level of Qi training came back alive.

So this time he also had to bleed a lot to exchange for some life-saving treasures. In the past six months, he did not spend as much money as last time, completing tens of thousands of transactions at a time, but changed his clothes every time to go to different shops, Release the elixir in a small amount, trying not to attract attention, so the spirit stones in his hand are not too many, but it is better to be safe.

The last time, it was because he didn't like the threats dangling in front of him all the time.

Gu Cheng looked at a dark hut in front of him, and walked in without hesitation.
