Reborn Enemy

In the south of Qianyang Mountain, there was a strong wind, and black clouds gathered from all directions, like a rolling black dragon, pressing down on the Lingxin faction with its fangs and claws.The sky above the Lingxin Sect was pitch black, thunder and lightning went away, as if the end of the world was coming, snake-shaped lightning struck the ridge from time to time, warning the cultivator inside who dared to take his life against the sky.

Xuanming faction, four people stood on the observatory, looking up at the sky.One of them is tall and tall, holding a dust whisk with a purple gold handle. He looks about forty years old, with straight eyebrows and black beard, and bright eyes. He is the head of the sect, Zhan Renjie.

Next to it, Wei Ziyang, the principal of Wenshi Academy, said, "It's the Spiritual School."

Zhuo Ran, the master of Lingbao Academy, couldn't help but said: "It's only been two years, and someone from Lingxin Sect has formed an alchemy again."

"It's just Wai Dan. We Xuanming Sect has dozens of Wai Dan disciples at least," Yunhe, the headmaster of Zhengyang Academy, said with a smile, "not to mention they had one two years ago, so it's still the same..."

Wei Ziyang sighed: "It's a pity to say, but that is Senior Sister Cheng's nephew, and I heard that he has first-class qualifications."

Yun He snorted: "Who can blame the boy for going to the wrong door? If he joined my Xuanming Sect, he wouldn't end up like that."

Zhan Renjie kept his beard silent.

The thunder tribulation lasted for three full days, and finally stopped. The heavy black clouds quickly dissipated, revealing a clear sky.The cave where Gu Pinglin retreated was a mess, within a radius of several tens of feet there were gravel and scorched earth, which showed the severity of the monk's alchemy.

Yue Songting, Chen Qian and others gathered around the entrance of the cave, nervously waiting for the movement inside.

Bu Shuihan was impatient: "Junior Brother Gu won't..."

"Nonsense!" Chen Qian stopped him.

Chang Jinxin said in a low voice: "The restriction has been lifted, it's been almost an hour, why don't you come out?"

"The outer alchemy has just been completed, I'm afraid it's collecting alchemy, what's the hurry!" Chen Qian snorted.It is very dangerous for a monk to cross the alchemy tribulation. Thinking of the matter of being so famous a few years ago, Chen Qian couldn't help but glance at Yue Songting sadly, this one must not be another accident.

At this moment, the heavy stone door suddenly made a friction sound and opened from the inside.

A boy with disheveled hair and shabby clothes came out of the cave.Because he had entered the Qi Refining Realm early, he looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old, and because he had just passed the alchemy, his handsome face was a little pale, with a trace of exhaustion, but those big eyes were like autumn water, with a dim light, High spirits.Looking at the slightly wrinkled eyebrows and tightly pursed lips, they are more calm than before.

"Brother Gu!"

"Brother Gu is fine!"

……

"Junior Brother Gu!" Bu Shuihan rushed up and grabbed his shoulder, "Great, great..." He said "Great" a few times in a row, and then laughed happily.

Everyone showed their faces and came forward to say congratulations.

For the first time in two years, Yue Songting showed a look of relief, stroking his beard and saying hello again and again, the Lingxin sect finally came out with a major repair of outer alchemy.

Feeling the long-lost warmth, Gu Pinglin smiled, nodded towards Bu Shuihan, pushed him away, walked straight to Yue Songting, and knelt down with a flick of his clothes: "This disciple is incompetent. It took 15 years to successfully exercise, which makes the master worry. gone."

Yue Songting bent down to help him, but was also too excited to speak.

In the Lingxin sect, Gu Pinglin's room is very tidy, and his disciples helped clean it long ago.

Zijinguan's long hair was bundled up, and it hung down into a ponytail behind her back. Her full forehead was half covered by a thick black fringe, which prevented her overly heroic eyes from appearing too serious.

Gu Pinglin looked at himself in the mirror and sighed.

The cultivator's outer pill is a sign of successful body training, the body is stronger, the growth rate is slowed down by ten times, and the thousand-year lifespan is obtained.It's a pity that I overestimated my ability after all. Even with good luck and good exercises in hand, it took me another five full years to break through the third round of Qi refining, obtain the outer alchemy, and enter the state of transforming Qi.

Gu Pinglin stood up from the bronze mirror, turned around, took a brand new dark purple robe and put it on.

This was Gu Pinglin's favorite color in his previous life, a calm and self-disciplined color that completely covered the young man's vigor, making him look like a radiant and restrained purple pearl.

The door was pushed open.

"Junior Brother Gu." Bu Shuihan strode in, he was still wearing the dark blue sleeves, his handsome face hadn't changed much, his arrogance was slightly subdued, after all he had matured a bit, but his temper was still hard to change.

Seeing Gu Pinglin, he couldn't help being stunned, and shouted: "You look like this, and I am inferior to you!"

He always spoke directly, Gu Pinglin was funny, and put on a black belt: "When will senior brother form the outer pill?"

"It's just recently." Bu Shuihan sat down at the table, rather frustrated, "Unexpectedly, I started a few years earlier than you, but now I'm the last one. It really is time to retreat, so that I can concentrate. "

Gu Pinglin straightened his sleeves and asked casually, "Where's Duan Qingming?"

Bu Shuihan was slightly stunned, he didn't show displeasure as usual, he was silent for a while, and then slowly said: "Junior Brother Duan, he... failed to cross the tribulation."

"What?" Gu Pinglin shook his hand.

In the past two years of Lei Jie, green weeds have grown on the scorched earth around him, and the tender grass leaves are gently swaying in the wind.

The stone gate is closed tightly, and there are patches of dark green old moss growing on it, which is the trace left by 15 years.There was no movement inside the door, and only the stories of former geniuses remained outside the door.

After Dan's robbery two years ago, he didn't come out.

On the door, the anti-interference restriction has long been broken. If the people inside are still alive, it is impossible not to respond to the movement outside.

Never expected it to turn out like this.Probably because he believed too much in his ability, the worst thing in Gu Pinglin's mind was that he failed to overcome the tribulation. With stone lotus seeds in his hand, it would not be a problem to restore his physique, but who knew he would not be able to pass.

Looking at the heavy stone gate, Gu Pinglin still couldn't believe it.

Is that cold-blooded evildoer really dead?Will die under the tribulation of Dan?He has not had time to become the real Duan Qingming, and he has not harmed the entire cultivation world, so he died like this?

Gu Pinglin slowly raised his hand, then put it down again.

If you break through this stone gate, what will you see?It is unimaginable that a rotten corpse will be wrapped in that clean white dress.Duan Qingming, should always be a Duan Qingming who is full of elegance and will change every stain on his clothes.

Probably... I hurt him?

If he hadn't provoked him in advance, he would not have followed the Lingxin sect. If he had learned the Xuanming sect's exercises, such an accident would certainly not have happened.

The death of the greatest enemy, Gu Pinglin did not have the slightest joy, but was a little dazed.

This feeling is loneliness.In the previous life, the two fought for most of their lives, and they were in the same situation, never ending death, but in this relationship, it was more of a bond between opponents.

I wonder if he will feel the same loneliness after his death?

Gu Pinglin thought of those bottomless eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

That was originally a lonely person.

How could he be saddened by the death of his opponent?Gu Pinglin shook his head mockingly, maybe it was because the two became brothers in this life, they spent more time together, and they had some affection, so they could be regarded as both enemies and friends.

Not far away, a group of disciples followed spontaneously, all standing with lowered eyes, with sad expressions, after all, Duan Qingming's popularity has always been very good.

Seeing it sideways, Gu Pinglin sneered slightly.

Even if you have never cared about the spiritualism, you should be content with so many people feeling sad for you, even if they only feel sorry for you in disguise.

Of course, that evildoer will never be ashamed.

Gu Pinglin is not a person who is obsessed with the past—things have come to this point, it is useless to be melancholy, the reborn self still has the important task of the Lingxin School, as well as his master and brothers, and there is still a long way to go, but it is just a memory left in his heart. An obsession that will never be unraveled.

"See you again by fate, Duan Qingming."

A seemingly random palm hit the stone door with a level of gravity, and the implied force pierced through the stone wall with a booming sound.

It is the respect of the opponent, and it is also a farewell.

——"See you in ten years, Gu Xiaojiu."

I'm here, you missed the appointment.

I have no choice but to say: Take care in the next life.

Gu Pinglin turned around resolutely, and told everyone: "Go back."

The disciples nodded and followed him to leave.Unexpectedly, just after taking a few steps, Gu Pinglin sensed something was wrong, and turned around abruptly: "Huh?"

The loud noise was deafening, stone chips flew, and the entire stone gate collapsed!As if a sleeping monster was awakened, the ground was trembling, and everyone was stunned.

A sword light floated out from the cave, light and fast, almost exceeding the limit.

It's not Jianguang, it's a silhouette!

The white clothes were still like snow, the man stood on the big rock with a long sword in his hand, his knee-length hair was loose, motionless, like a madman.

With that kind of speed, he can still control his movements, which shows his superb agility.

"It's Senior Brother Duan!" a disciple yelled out loud.

Gu Pinglin subconsciously took a step forward, then stopped again.

After a long time, he finally raised his head slowly, and his long hair swayed away, revealing a small half of his handsome side face.The nose seemed to be a little more straight, drawing a straight and ruthless line, but it was softened by the shallow curvature of the thin lips.

"Brother Duan!"

"Brother Duan is still alive!"

……

All the disciples were ecstatic and rushed up to surround him.That kind of freedom is not available to Gu Pinglin.Because of the identity of the master's direct disciple and Gu Pinglin's rigorous behavior, the brothers admire him more, but it's different when it comes to Duan Qingming, they chat and laugh together.

Instead, Gu Pinglin froze on the periphery, watching the man from a distance.

I haven't seen him for more than ten years, but his figure is already as tall as in his previous life. Even if his hair is disheveled, he is handsome and graceful.

He also looked towards Gu Pinglin.

Compared with the appearance of Qi Refining Realm back then, that face is only slightly mature.The already long and narrow eyes became even narrower, unable to see clearly the city inside, the red shadow at the end of the eyes faded instead, and the evil spirit also faded a lot.The gentle eye waves, apart from sending sincerity and friendliness, do not contain any other emotions, and even the last trace of vigor has completely faded away.

Just when Gu Pinglin thought he was going to call out "Gu Xiaojiu", he smiled slightly and called out affectionately: "Junior Brother Gu."

In an instant, the person in front of him completely coincides with the person in his memory.

This is Duan Qingming, the real Duan Qingming.

So Gu Pinglin nodded and said in a low voice, "Master Duan Liu."
