#222 - Chu Meng is not normal
The crossing of the bridge went very smoothly.
There was no danger at all.
Gu An also recalled the five people Zuo Youyan wanted to kill.
Li Yue, according to Zuo Youyan's records, was a person with extremely high talent, a disciple of the Imperial Spirit Peak.
She had the shadow of an elder from the peak behind her.
The reason for wanting to kill her was that she had caused him a great loss in a certain matter, even harming one of his senior brothers.
The reason was that in order to seize a certain treasure, she tried every means to drag them into the water.
In the end, they suffered the hardship, while she took the benefits.
At that time, although Zuo Youyan was involved, he did not directly confront her.
Afterward, he wanted to kill her.
But at that time, Li Yue hid beside a certain elder, inseparable.
Leaving him no chance to attack.
She also had many magical treasures, and if she used them, she might escape.
Later, there was no chance.
Gu An sighed inwardly, the name matched, and the Imperial Spirit Peak matched as well.
Selfish and self-serving also matched.
Then it should be her.
Gu An remained silent.
After the group successfully crossed, they saw Li Yue leading people away quickly.
Not even a word of thanks.
"Senior brother, will we still save them if we encounter them in the future?" Zhuge Jing looked at Lu Ping.
The taciturn Lu Ping shook his head slightly.
Without speaking.
Gu An wasn't sure whether it was 'no save' or 'don't know'.
However, he was a little surprised that his senior brother didn't covet that ancient sword.
Or was it that there were too many people, making it inconvenient to act directly?
When I was the leader, if I needed to kill someone,
It was indeed not good to do it in front of the other members.
I needed to find a suitable opportunity.
I wonder if Senior Brother Lu was also like this.
"Junior Brother Gu, was that just now 'scattering beans to form soldiers'?" Nan Yundong asked curiously.
Gu An nodded and said softly, "A small trick that can't be shown on the table."
Nan Yundong looked at the person in front of him and said, "Was the 'small trick' you mentioned before also this?"
Gu An nodded.
Indeed, it wasn't of much use.
It was just used to clean up the battlefield.
Both the lethality and the defense were very average.
However, these were all red beans that he bought, and the power given by Chu Meng was indeed not small.
They were all Golden Cores.
They were more or less useful.
But in the final analysis, it was still for cleaning up the battlefield.
"This 'scattering beans to form soldiers' level is not low," Nan Yundong said with a slight admiration.
"The red beans shouldn't be cheap either," Lu Ping slowly opened his mouth.
Gu An was slightly embarrassed, "Just ordinary red beans."
Indeed, they weren't expensive.
Lu Ping didn't say anything else, but Gu An felt that he was very concerned about this.
As for Li Yue, although the others also mentioned her, they only cursed her angrily.
Gu An felt that these people were slightly different from those he had encountered before.
Nan Yundong and the others didn't speak nicely, but they were always doing things.
They were also the first to act when there was danger.
He had hardly taken action.
However, these two people's words were indeed unpleasant, and if they encountered someone with a sensitive heart, they would probably feel resentment and think that the two of them regarded him as trash.
After crossing the river, the road ahead was much safer.
Although there were still some demons and plants.
But Zhuge Jing and Nan Yundong could solve them.
Gu An was protected throughout the whole journey, without any danger.
They spoke less along the way, and seemed to no longer think of him as a burden.
Before dark, Gu An saw a forest, and then he saw a bamboo forest.
The spiritual energy in the bamboo forest was rich, and there was also sword intent present.
Everyone was pleasantly surprised.
They had arrived at the place.
Soon, the five of them came to the front of the bamboo forest.
Everyone sensed it and knew that they had found the right place.
"The Sword Immortal Tomb should be inside, rest for a while, and then go in," Lu Ping said.
The group sat down cross-legged and began to recover.
Gu An wasn't in a hurry, but came to the edge of the bamboo forest and tried to stroke it.
The rich aura of the years, not only that, but also a huge amount of spiritual energy.
Good place, good bamboo.
He couldn't help but want to cut down the trees.
"Junior brother, what are you looking at?" Zhuge Jing asked curiously.
Gu An thought for a moment and said, "I heard that our Heavenly Suspension Peak's Sword Tomb also needs this kind of bamboo."
"This bamboo can nurture sword intent, and once a bamboo forest is formed, it will be of great help to the comprehension of the sword.
It's a pity that simply transplanting it is not enough.
You need the core bamboo," Zhuge Jing explained.
"I heard that as long as you cut down enough trees, you might be able to find that core bamboo," Gu An asked.
Hearing this, Zhuge Jing nodded, "That's true, but the success rate is too low.
This matter is very difficult.
Originally, people from the Heavenly Suspension Peak in other places had also tried it, and even if they cut down all the bamboo, they might not be able to bring out that core bamboo."
Hearing this, Gu An's eyes showed determination, as if he had made some decision, and said, "Senior sister, I plan to stay and cut down trees."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhuge Jing looked surprised.
"Are you serious?" she asked.
Gu An nodded, "Yes."
After a long time.
Lu Ping and the others also recovered their state.
They immediately knew that Gu An wanted to stay and cut down trees.
"Obviously, the Sword Immortal Tomb is more important, why cut down trees?" Nan Xueyan frowned and asked.
"The Sword Immortal's opportunity is enough for the senior brothers and sisters, leave the spiritual bamboo to me.
Although it's of no use to me personally, once it succeeds, it will be a huge help to the entire Heavenly Suspension Peak.
It will benefit future generations," Gu An said in a serious manner.
"Benefit future generations?" Nan Yundong was shocked, "Junior brother, are you so noble?"
Gu An ignored them, but looked at Lu Ping and said seriously, "Senior brother should understand, my cultivation is not enough, and if I enter the Sword Immortal's home, I will definitely be a burden to you.
You who would have gained many opportunities will have your gains reduced because of me.
It's better to let me stay outside, perhaps I can gain more."
"Junior brother, you are wrong," Nan Yundong quickly said, "Although your cultivation is low, the opportunities inside are sometimes suitable for someone with your cultivation.
We won't be affected, it's just a little troublesome for Senior Brother Lu.
But he definitely doesn't want you to give up the Sword Immortal Tomb's opportunity."
"Junior brother, although your cultivation is weak and it's easy to be a drag, you're not without merit.
It's too bad to stay outside," Nan Xueyan also said.
These two people said that my cultivation was weak at every turn, their words were really unpleasant.
Although it was the truth.
However, he still looked at Lu Ping and said seriously, "Senior brother, please grant my wish."
Lu Ping was silent for a long time, and finally said, "Find the Sword Immortal Tomb first, if you want to cut down trees, you should stay in front of the Sword Immortal's home to cut down trees, so there will be someone to look after you."
Gu An agreed.
After that, the group went inside.
Although people kept trying to persuade him, Gu An didn't give in at all.
He just felt that his cultivation was weak and he couldn't go in and be a burden to them.
For a time, Nan Xueyan and the other's faces showed guilt.
It seemed that they thought it was because they said too much about Gu An being a drag and having weak cultivation that he refused to enter the Sword Immortal Tomb.
Although it wasn't, Gu An couldn't explain.
At night.
Under the moonlight, they finally found a cave, which should be the entrance to the Sword Immortal's home, surrounded by many spiritual bamboos.
"Then I'll wait for senior brothers and sisters outside," Gu An stopped.
Lu Ping pondered for a moment.
Then several long swords flew out, landing in various places, and then the sword intents resonated, forming a sword array.
"Try to hide in the sword array as much as possible, it can help you resist foreign enemies to some extent," he said, leaving a mark on Gu An.
In this way, he could control the sword array.
Entering and exiting is unrestricted.
It is difficult for others to enter.
However, the sword array does not prevent people from entering the Sword Immortal's Tomb.
If it prevented people from entering, the formation would definitely be cracked.
In that case, the people inside the sword array would be in danger.
After explaining a few more things,
the four bid farewell to Gu An and entered the secret realm.
With that, Gu An breathed a sigh of relief.
They finally left.
He found a place within the sword array's range and looked around, taking it as a temporary residence.
Digging into the ground would be safer when advancing.
Otherwise, their sudden appearance would indeed be dangerous.
If outsiders came, he would easily be discovered.
Digging a cave and then attaching some talismans would be much safer.
Thinking like this, he began to dig the cave.
Fortunately, he could dig.
It wasn't until midnight that
Gu An received feedback from the Ring of Destiny.
He checked it immediately.
[Yesterday afternoon, Li Yue broke away from you, feeling disdain. She deliberately chose that time to risk taking the ancient sword, knowing that Lu Ping and the others were about to arrive. If there was danger, the other party would definitely help. She had long heard that the other party was a good person. As for whether Lu Ping lived or died, she didn't care, as long as she herself lived and obtained the treasure.
After crossing the river, her talent guided her to find a spiritual herb, but there was a symbiotic monster. She had made her plans.
The five of you are definitely going to find the Sword Immortal Sect. As long as she knows the location, she will lead the monster over.
She wants the spiritual herb, and the monster will be left to you.
A good person, how could they be a good person without suffering a little?
If you die, it will be a worthwhile death.]
Looking at the Ring of Destiny, Gu An's expression didn't change.
It seemed that it wouldn't be long before they discovered him logging here and then lured the monster over, so he could help block it.
It was indeed a good plan.
Even if he didn't want to help, the other party would lure the monster over, and he would have no choice but to help.
After all, the monster would directly attack in groups.
Extremely troublesome.
Before dawn, Gu An had dug the cave.
With that, he left the underground cave and appeared on the ground.
He wouldn't go in without advancing.
Otherwise, if others didn't see him, they might have some guesses.
The talismans isolating detection had already been attached below, and without careful investigation, they wouldn't be discovered.
These talismans were also quite expensive.
Taking advantage of the faint light of dawn, before anyone came looking for him, Gu An took out Hua Jiyang's letter to see what the other party had written.
And what he had prepared for himself.
Soon the content came into view.
"Junior Brother Gu, I heard you were accepted by Sky Suspension Peak? Why? You look so old, and your cultivation...
Thinking about it carefully, you are fifty years old, which is a bit old, and a bit unkempt, but you are a fifty-year-old Golden Core,
that's a genius.
I didn't realize it for a moment.
Did the other party recognize a talent?
But you look so old, do they think you are already over a hundred years old? With no potential?
Tell me honestly, did you lie about your age?
By the way, I have something to tell you. I recently learned something from a place about the Qi Sea Heavenly Canopy.
The first few volumes of the Qi Sea Heavenly Canopy correspond to each realm.
If you don't learn it all, it's almost a waste of time.
And besides that, the Qi Sea Heavenly Canopy has a key point.
That is, before the third volume is completed, you must plant a seed.
Only by planting a special seed in the Qi Sea can the path behind the Qi Sea Heavenly Canopy have unimaginable changes.
I don't know what the specific changes are yet, but you are already a Golden Core, so I guess you haven't practiced the Qi Sea Heavenly Canopy.
But it's good to learn it casually, otherwise it would be a big waste of time.
Relatively speaking, practicing it casually also has considerable power.
Because you haven't continued to practice, I haven't delved into this seed, but I heard that even if the third volume is completed, there is a chance to make up for it.
It's just a bit complicated, but it's not perfect after all.
In addition, I also got the fourth volume and sent it to you together.
Anyway, I don't learn this thing. I can't imagine who would learn this thing.
In my information, the more I get, the more outrageous I feel.
It seems that the Qi Sea Heavenly Canopy was created by someone while creating and learning, and then they found that it was wrong and needed to plant a seed.
If someone really learned it, the creator might not even know what the situation would be.
In addition, you have joined Sky Suspension Peak. I don't know if you are practicing the saber or the sword. I have given you this set.
The saber is named Destiny, and the sword is named Reason.
See if you need it. In addition, the compass is my recent understanding of formations, which can be used in your residence.
It can isolate perception and form a trapped array, which contains defense and attack.
It can be opened and closed at any time.
In addition, there are shadows of some powerful people behind the things you have done since entering the sect.
Although I don't know if you have any relationship with them.
But there is one person you need to be especially careful of,
Chu Meng is not simple. Before you came, although her status was high, her talent was not so obvious.
But recently, her talent has suddenly become apparent. Although she seems to be at the peak of Foundation Establishment, I suspect that she has already achieved the Golden Core.
A Golden Core at twenty years old is rare in ancient and modern times.
I was going to investigate her, but I found that the true disciples had taken action.
They didn't give me a chance at all.
I have offended too many people, and I must not offend this one again.
But you have to be careful, these people are likely to contact you.
In short, stay vigilant.
Chu Meng is definitely not an ordinary twenty-year-old girl, she is not normal.
I have seen geniuses, but she is not an ordinary genius.
Be careful.
Also, do you have any spirit stones?
Junior brother is really amazing. At first, it was only dozens or hundreds, but now it's thousands.
Being old is not without its advantages, you can make money.
Hua Jiyang left."
When Gu An finished reading the letter, he frowned.
What do you mean by old and unkempt?
And saying that he lied about his age.
Chu Meng lied about her age.
But this letter was a bit strange.
Excluding the matter of saying that he was old, it was the problem of the seed.
The cultivation of Qi Sea Heavenly Canopy requires planting a seed?
What seed?
Hua Jiyang didn't say, but he thought of something.
That is the poison pill in the Qi Sea.
Is he using the poison pill as a seed?
Impossible?
Hua Jiyang didn't say it specifically, making him a little unclear.
So, did he mistakenly embark on the most correct path?
But can the poison pill be used as a seed?
It doesn't seem to work no matter how you look at it.
Then how to make up for it?
Hua Jiyang didn't say it clearly either.
And besides this, there are two magic weapons.
This is not the point.
Hua Jiyang said that there were shadows of powerful people behind him, that is, that woman and others.
And Chu Meng was the strangest.
"In Hua Jiyang's information, Chu Meng is at the peak of Foundation Establishment.
But the cultivation she showed me was Nascent Soul."
So, what's going on?
He was a little confused.
