I'm an actor under the devil

Back at his residence, Gu Qingyuan opened the porcelain bottle that Yan Shen gave him.

[Great hand! 】As soon as the system saw the contents in the porcelain vase, it yelled: 【There are actually three top-level burning blood pills inside. 】Fenxue Pill is a kind of elixir that can improve one's cultivation in a short period of time.A top-level Burning Blood Pill can raise Gu Qing's cultivation to a great realm, to the early Mahayana stage, within an hour.Three are enough for Gu Qing to improve his cultivation for three full hours, not to mention killing a Hinayana Sanxian, even if he is facing Sword Master, he can beat him by a dozen.

Thinking of this, Gu Qingyuan couldn't help snorting: "Yan Chen is really thinking of me. He asked me to kill myself, and he was afraid that I would not be able to kill him, so he prepared three Burning Blood Pills for me."

[Then what are you going to do next? If you don't kill him, you can't explain it?Why don't you go offline and arrange for your identity to feign death? ] After the system finished speaking, it immediately denied it: [No, no, the protagonist is quite close to you now, if you die, it would be bad to stimulate him to blacken. 】【How about you still run away with this identity?Nie Wushuang has progressed so fast, and when he adds these three burning blood pills after the Mahayana period, he may not be Yan Chen's opponent. ] "No need." Gu Qingyuan looked not worried at all: "Who said that if you have a Mahayana cultivation base, you will be able to kill Qingyuan. If I beat myself, victory or defeat is not just a matter of words?"

The system is still not at ease: [But what if the task fails and Shen wants to deal with you? 】Gu Qingyuan: "You see that in the original text, Gu Qing's mission failed once or twice. Did Yan Chen deal with him? Didn't he die in the protagonist's hands in the end?"

[That's what you said, but after all, he was the big devil who killed ten thousand demon cultivators in one go, let's play him like this...] "Just play it." Gu Qingyuan interrupted the system arrogantly: "Yan Shen The protagonist never left his residence until the Hinayana period. Do you think he didn’t want to come out? He must have a reason why he couldn’t leave there. Among the mob of the Devil’s Cult, there are only a few available hands, left and right. To defend the Devil's Cult, the Four Sacred Halls are all under Gu Qing's command, if he killed Gu Qing, who would he ask to do things for him?"

Therefore, Gu Qingyuan was sure that as long as he did not step on Yan Shen's bottom line, he would not touch him easily.As for the bottom line?It should be something related to Nie Wushuang and the sacred object.

Gu Qingyuan planned to go back to Jiange to have a look first, and after making arrangements for Nie Wushuang, he would perform a play for Yan Chen.

It was time for him to rush back to Jiange for a teleportation talisman.When they came to the sword tower, the assessment was not over yet.

In the middle of the night, the cold moonlight sprinkled on the top of Zhancang Peak, flowing down from the stone blue body of the Sword Tower, and over the stone steps in front of the tower, covering the entire mountain top in the cool moonlight.

At this time, it was just halfway through the opening time of the sword tower, and no one came out, because it was a small test, and only a few disciples of Dafeng accompanied the test.Gathered in twos and threes, waiting for the testers to come out.

After Gu Qingyuan came, he found a secluded place and sat down.He thought that the first nineteen floors of the sword tower should not be difficult for Nie Wushuang. Calculating the time, Nie Wushuang probably got stuck on the No.20 floor.

Nie Wushuang did not expect that the difficulty of the No.20 floor would increase so much.It is also the sword intent of the artistic conception level, the one on the nineteenth floor is already very solid, and even vaguely has the meaning of condensing sound and shape.The [-]th floor is actually not far from the [-]th floor in terms of sword intent, but the difficulty is quite different.

The owner of this sword intent is a young sword cultivator with a good temperament.When the young man saw Nie Wushuang, he nodded towards him and boasted, "He is a good young man who can practice swords."

Nie Wushuang had heard many compliments like this, so she bowed to the other party as usual: "Please advise."

The young man draws out a sword intent.

Nie Wushuang didn't see any image, as if it was just a simple sword strike, like a very rough slash by a new swordsman.But when he drew his sword to pick it up, he found that this was not the case.

The sword came not fast, but Nie Wushuang didn't catch it, even he didn't understand why he didn't catch it.He only knew that by the time he realized it, he had already lost.

The sword intent was slicing across Nie Wushuang's chest, and did not cause any substantial damage, but he actually broke out in a cold sweat.

All the sword intents of the sword tower will not really hurt the disciples of the Jiange Pavilion. When they come into contact with them, they will dissipate by themselves, and at the same time, it is unexpected that an attempt will fail.

Nie Wushuang was not afraid of getting hurt, nor was he afraid of failure. What shocked him was that he didn't know how he lost.

"What kind of sword intent was that way just now?" He couldn't help asking.

"Illusory True Sword Intent." The young man smiled kindly, and even pointed out to Nie Wushuang: "False is true and true is also false, as real as illusory, that's how it is."

Nie Wushuang seemed to understand, but he tried a few more times, but he still couldn't catch the sword.Obviously that sword was right there, it was an ordinary sword.But he couldn't get it.

"Don't judge my sword." After Nie Wushuang failed for the tenth time, the young man stopped again: "Your five senses and even your spiritual sense may deceive you, only the sword in your hand can't deceive you." you."

Do you feel it with a sword?Nie Wushuang seemed to realize something in his heart. This time, he used the lightest Liubo in the sword move.Tiny streams of water swirled in the air, around the sword he saw, and rolled into the void.

is here!Nie Wushuang immediately changed his moves, and the blades collided with each other. The vibration from his wrist made Nie Wushuang feel relieved.

But he was obviously too relieved, the touching sword blades changed from real to virtual, and moved in front of him in an instant, passing through his chest again.

Nie Wushuang stared at the gradually dissipating sword light on his chest, and stood there blankly.He clearly caught it. Could it be true? It can also become false, and the false can also become true.Then how to break this sword intent?

In front of the sword tower, Gu Qingyuan sat cross-legged on the grass, bathed in the moonlight, holding a handful of book jade in his hand, flipping through them one by one.There is also a plate of exquisite snacks on hand.

Immortal cultivators don't talk about appetite, but Moxiu likes to enjoy. In Zuiyu City, there are restaurants and teahouses everywhere on the street.The food made from the best spiritual materials in the world of cultivating immortals not only tastes delicious, but also nourishes the body.The degree of enjoyment is even better than that of the human world.

Gu Qingyuan needed to wear a mask when he was in Kunshan, so it was inconvenient to eat, but it didn't prevent him from storing a lot of them in the storage space like a hamster, and bringing them to Jiange to satisfy his hunger.

Gu Qingyuan was leisurely reading a book and eating snacks, but the system was so anxious that it kept arguing in his head: [Gu Shen, are you sure that phantom true sword intent on the twentieth floor can really change Nie Wushuang's mind? ] Gu Qingyuan didn't raise his head: "What are you worried about? You can't change it. Isn't it just what you want?"

[Hey,] The system who had been exposed to his mind smiled guiltyly. He was timid, so he naturally hoped that Nie Wushuang could follow the path of the original book, rather than take the risk of cultivating a "Da Yan Xin Fa" that no one has ever completed before. .

【I'm mainly afraid that Nie Wushuang doesn't even practice the dead wood mentality and the supporting swordsmanship. If he only uses the Canghai swordsmanship, will he not be able to pass the [-]th floor?After all, it is quite difficult to achieve the [-]th level of phantom true sword intent. 】In the original book, although Nie Wushuang had practiced the Deadwood Heart Technique, he had just started at that time, and hadn't even penetrated the most superficial sword intent, so he encountered the first small test.Breaking through the first few layers was not as easy as this time.

He almost comprehended the sword while climbing the stairs, but he made rapid progress.

Until he came to the No.20 floor.Encountered the most difficult phantom true sword intent.

There was such a description in the original text about the [-]th floor's phantom true sword intent.

"To take it, it's like closing the five senses, putting away the spiritual consciousness, and being an ordinary person who can't see or hear, to catch a sword that stabs out of thin air. And this sword will change all the time Location. Even if it is accidentally caught, the next second, it will appear in another place."

It can be said that Nie Wushuang exhausted his efforts to break through this level in the original text. Finally, at the last moment of the small test, under the pressure of the phantom sword intent, he comprehended the core of the dead wood sword, the sword intent of the dead wood in spring.Only then did he manage to leave the sword tower before noon the next day.

In the original text, the withered wood mental method became the key to Nie Wushuang's breakout, so the system was worried that Nie Wushuang, who had not practiced the withered wood mental method, might not pass this small test.

Gu Qingyuan stuffed a piece of snacks into his mouth in a calm manner: "The dead wood mentality is indeed the nemesis of the illusion and true sword intent."

"Stand up with the intention of endless life, put it to death and then live again. Although the sword of illusion is false and real, it is still a sword of killing. When the sword body under the cover of illusion reveals its murderous intent, it is a dead tree. when."

He intentionally teased the system and sighed pretendingly: "Unfortunately, the Canghai Sword Art that Nie Wushuang is using now is just an ordinary water-moving sword art. It is not as mysterious as a dead tree in spring, and it cannot solve the key to the illusion of true sword intent."

[Then, what should we do?You don't mean to let Nie Wushuang fail once here, and then stimulate him to learn "Dayan Xinfa"? 】Gu Qingyuan bit the cake and raised his eyebrows: "Am I such a despicable person?"

You are……

Although the system thought so in its heart, but due to Gu Qingyuan's lustful power, it didn't dare to say it: [Of course not, you are the most handsome and kind-hearted, so you must have prepared other ways for the protagonist to break through, right? 】Gu Qingyuan nodded in satisfaction, and then said: "No, you didn't watch him when I taught him."

system:【……】

[What should I do then?The protagonist is about to fail the quiz! 】

"If you don't pass, you won't pass. There will be more next year." Gu Qingyuan said indifferently.

[But that wouldn't be handsome...] The system feels aggrieved.

"Pfft." Gu Qingyuan was amused by the system's statement.But after all, he really didn't think that Nie Wushuang would fail this small test: "It's not for nothing that I taught him so many days of sword intent."

"Although the moves of the Illusory True Sword Intent are ingenious, in the final analysis, it is only a sword intent at the level of artistic conception. As long as the examiner's sword intent is strong enough to form a suppression. It doesn't matter if the opponent's sword intent cannot be used."

The system breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then asked worriedly: 【Can Nie Wushuang suppress the other party? ] "People always have to improve under pressure." Gu Qingyuan threw the last piece of dim sum into his mouth, and patted the residue of dim sum on his body.There was no worry in his tone.

The system thinks that Gu Qingyuan is not worried, so it should be no problem: [But what does this have to do with Nie Wushuang's practice of "Dayan Xinfa"? 】Gu Qingyuan: "Climbing this sword tower is like opening a door. It is necessary to find the key and also have the sword intent to deal with it. But suppressing the breakthrough with sword intent is equivalent to smashing the door, although it can also achieve the goal. But not coincidentally."

"Now he is facing a weak sword intent, so he can deal with it in this way. In the future, when he faces stronger sword intent, sword intent, formation, and spells, he will never be able to follow this method of using strength to overcome cleverness forever, and then he will never It is impossible to defeat an enemy stronger than him."

[Not really, the sword master used the dead wood mentality, didn't he fight a lot of battles where the weak defeated the strong? ] "That's right, the dead wood mentality is a top-level mentality. Its own sword intent is extremely difficult to crack, and it can become the guest star of many sword intents. The key to many doors."

[Is that not good enough? 】The system does not understand.Since Gu Qingyuan praised the withered wood mental method so well, why didn't he let Nie Wushuang practice it.

"It's not the best." Gu Qingyuan said, looking in the direction of the sword tower.

"Because his opponent is Yan Chen, an existence with the highest level of cultivation and skills, and almost invincible in the cultivation world. To defeat him, Nie Wushuang must have an invincible door and a weapon that can open all doors." Skeleton key. "Withered Wood Sword Technique" is not enough. Only "Dayan Heart Technique" will do."

A tall and straight figure of a young man appeared in front of the gate of the sword tower, and the moonlight shone on his white Taoist robe.The young man was stunned for a while in front of the tower, as if he was still reminiscing about the battle just now, and couldn't catch his breath.Then he looked around for a while, and quickly locked on to Gu Qingyuan's direction, with a happy smile on his face.Came over here.

"Did Master come to pick me up specially?"
