There was a line in the sky, it was vast and vast.
White clouds rumbled, moving under their feet.
A gigantic male lion let out a low roar, its thick limbs stepping on the void as it galloped through the clouds.
This lion was white as snow, there was no other color on it.
Its thick mane fluttered in the wind, huge air currents were surging under its feet.
On the lion's back, there was a huge chair, two Gu Immortals, one male and one female, were sitting side by side.
The woman was old, she looked to be around sixty to seventy years old, but her eyes were shining with bright light, she was excited and restless, looking around.
The man was a young man, he had an aquiline nose and narrow eyes, his body was emitting a cold aura of vicissitudes.
"Great-uncle, your mount is really amazing, it can actually ride on the clouds, in just half a day, we have already traveled tens of thousands of li." The female Gu Immortal praised.
"This is a desolate beast qi grand lion, it does not ride on the clouds, it can control air currents, thus it can fly in the sky." The young man said slowly.
"A lion that can control air currents and fly in the sky, I have never seen it before. Desolate beast … what does that mean? "The female Gu Immortal asked.
The young Gu Immortal laughed silently, saying: "Qi He, you have just advanced to Gu Immortal, it is normal that you do not know the common knowledge of the Gu Immortal world. This qi grand lion contains qi path dao marks, once it matures, it can fly in the sky. But this lion is very rare, it is almost extinct in the five regions, it can only be seen in white heaven or black heaven. "
"As for desolate beasts, they are a type of beast. Like how Gu Masters have rank one, rank two, and rank three, other than desolate beasts, there are also ancient desolate beasts and immemorial desolate beasts. Desolate beasts are equivalent to rank six Gu Immortals, because a desolate beast can usually match a rank six Gu Immortal. Ancient desolate beasts are equivalent to rank seven, immemorial desolate beasts are equivalent to rank eight. "
The female Gu Immortal Qi He heard this and her eyes shined, she sized up the qi grand lion again, thinking: "No wonder I felt a strong sense of threat from this lion. Thankfully, I met grandpa and survived the tribulation. I became a Gu Immortal. If I had to fight this lion, I would probably be torn to pieces. "
The young Gu Immortal Qi Zai was already several hundred years old, he had rank seven cultivation level and only used lifespan Gu. That was why he looked so young.
He was old and shrewd, so when he saw Qi He's expression, he was able to guess what she was thinking.
Patting this junior's shoulder, Qi Zai consoled: "Xiao He, don't worry. It was the same for newly ascended immortals. When I'm done with what I have to do, we'll return to Qi Sea Grotto-Heaven. There are still a few of your seniors there. If they knew that our Qi tribe had another Gu Immortal, they would be very happy. You will be living in the grotto-heaven for a period of time. During this period, you will have to seek guidance from the elders. Remember to watch more, ask more, and learn more. "
"Granddaughter thanks seventh grandpa for your guidance." Qi He's expression turned serious, she quickly stood up and bowed to Qi Zai solemnly.
"En … let us grandfather and grandson sit down and talk." Qi Zai nodded. A hint of gratification flashed in his eyes.
Qi He sat down with a puzzled expression, she hesitated for a moment before asking: "Our Qi clan has many Gu Immortal elders, why don't we imitate Southern Border super forces like Wu clan and Shang clan?"
Qi Zai's eyes revealed a trace of a smile: "You want to ask, why are we seniors not like Wu clan and Shang clan, taking care of our juniors after becoming Gu Immortals? Instead, you allow the younger generation of the family to live in a corner and be bullied, right? "
"I wouldn't dare," Qi He said hurriedly.
"Back when I was cultivating alone to become an immortal. I have the same question as you. "Qi Zai sighed, his eyes filled with reminiscence." The reason is a long story. "
"If we get to the root of the matter. As for our Qi family's patriarch, he was one of the Sky Inspecting Five Xiangs thousands of years ago. "
"Sky Inspecting Five Phases?" Qi He was puzzled.
"The Heaven Surveying Five Xiangs were the five publicly recognized Gu Immortal experts of Southern Border's Gu Immortal world. These five experts had rank eight cultivation level, they stood at the peak of the Gu Immortal world. They often worked together to explore the white sky and the black sky together, and their relationship was very close. Thus, they were collectively known as the Sky Inspecting Five Symbols. Our Qi clan's ancestor. He was one of the Five Xiangs, Qi Xiang. And our Qi clan mainly cultivates qi path. "
"Rank eight Gu Immortals!" Qi He was tongue-tied.
Qi Zai sighed: "Without rank nine, rank eights dominate! Almost every rank eight Gu Immortal is a legend, their every action has great influence. And back then, Southern Border's Sky Inspecting Five Xiangs were even more famous, they were famous in the other four regions. That was because these five experts had similar interests, they had a close relationship and often worked together to resist enemies. And under normal circumstances, rank eight Gu Immortals were lone wolves. Thus, in white heaven and black heaven, when the other four regions' rank eight Gu Immortals see the Sky Inspecting Five Xiangs, they would take the initiative to avoid them. "
"Back then, because of the Five Xiangs, Southern Border's Gu Immortal world suppressed the other four regions, the Five Xiangs were unparalleled. But decades later, the Sky Inspecting Five Xiangs fell apart. "
Saying this, Qi Zai's tone turned gloomy.
"Why is that?" Qi He quickly asked.
Qi Zai sighed, continuing: "I am not too sure about the specific reason. It is said that back then, when the Sky Inspecting Five Xiangs explored white heaven, they discovered a huge secret. This secret represented an unimaginable achievement, but only one of them could obtain it. Among the Five Xiangs, everyone wanted to obtain it, no one was willing to take a step back. But the Five Xiangs did not have much of a difference in strength, and because of their past cooperation, the Five Xiangs' ancestors made a bet. "
"Bet?"
"That's right. This bet had a thousand years as the time limit. The terms of the bet were: The Five Xiangs had to watch by the side, their descendants' bloodlines would develop on their own. A thousand years later, the clan with the most new Gu Immortals would be the winner. "
Qi He calculated the time, a thousand years had already passed, she quickly asked: "Then which clan won?"
Qi Zai smiled bitterly: "A thousand years later, there were two clans with the same number of new Gu Immortals, they were evenly matched. The other three clans did not want to give up, they fought three against two and forcefully joined the next round of the bet. Thus, a thousand years, two thousand years, three thousand years … until now, the Five Xiangs' ancestors have already passed away, but the bet between the five clans is still ongoing. "
"So it was like this!" This was the first time Qi He had heard of this thousand-year-old secret, she was tongue-tied.
After a long while, she accepted it, sighing: "That means to say, if not for this bet, wouldn't our Southern Border have five more super forces?"
But Qi Zai shook his head: "Among the Five Xiangs, there are lone immortals and demonic path members. Developing clans is something that only righteous path Gu Immortals have the patience to do."
"Our Qi clan is Qi Xiang, then who are the other four Xiangs?" Qi He asked.
Qi Zai said everything he knew: "Qi Xiang, Ni Xiang, Bai Xiang, Xue Xiang, and Chi Xiang are collectively known as the Sky Inspecting Five Xiangs. The place I am going to next is where Ni Xiang's descendants are. "
"Grand-uncle, why are you going to Ni Xiang?"
Qi Zai hesitated before laughing: "Forget it, there is no harm in telling you. Recently, a huge event happened in Southern Border's Gu Immortal world, a large number of Gu Immortals died mysteriously on Yi Tian Mountain. Our Qi clan also had an ancestor who died there. So this time, we are looking for the current generation Ni Xiang, we want him or her to help us deduce the truth. "
"Ah! Yi Tian Mountain … "Qi He gasped.
Regardless of Fang Yuan's previous life, the battle of Yi Tian Mountain in this life involved both immortal and mortal worlds. Thus, Qi He had heard of it long ago.
But what she knew was that Southern Border's forces had sent mortal experts to attack Yi Tian Mountain, to eradicate the demonic path and defend the righteous path. In Southern Border, the demonic path had never established their forces on such a large scale. Thus, they were attacked by the righteous path.
Qi Zai told Qi He about the bet on Yi Tian Mountain.
Qi He understood now, so this was the truth.
She muttered: "The difference between immortal and mortal is like the difference between clouds and mud. Those rank four and five experts are merely chess pieces of the immortals. "
This truth had a huge impact on Qi He, who had just become an immortal.
Qi Zai heard this and laughed in his heart.
When a Gu Master becomes an immortal, it was not just a change in strength and cultivation, it was also a change in mentality.
Right now, Qi Zai was using the matter of Yi Tian Mountain to speed up Qi He's transformation and adapt to her new identity.
He was speechless.
Only the qi grand lion continued to move, there was silence between Qi Zai and Qi He.
The surrounding clouds rumbled, heaven and earth shook.
Because a Gu formation had already been set up between the seats, there was not even a trace of wind or any noise.
How could a mortal witness such a scene?
Qi He saw this, she felt that the world was vast, mortals were like ants, the indescribable feeling in her gradually faded, she thought: "That's right, I am a Gu Immortal now, I am no longer a mortal. Mortals and immortals are different, I need to remember this. "
Consoling herself, Qi He's emotions gradually calmed down, a subtle change occurred in her mind.
Qi Zai nodded inwardly, speaking: "Actually, after thousands of years, among the descendants of the Heaven Surveying Five Xiangs, our Qi clan is the most prosperous. Xue Xiang's descendants have gone extinct because they cultivate blood path. Xue Xiang's descendants are hiding in their immortal apertures like pigs and dogs, they do not want to improve themselves and are lazy, they are not worth mentioning. Bai Xiang's last branch has also died in recent years. And Ni Xiang's tribe, even though there are several branches in Southern Border, there are no longer any Ni clan Gu Immortals. "
Qi He felt it deeply, she nodded: "Becoming an immortal is very difficult, if not for grandpa's help, I would have died in the tribulation already."
Qi Zai smiled, shaking his head as he looked at Qi He with deep meaning: "Actually, Ni clan is the clan with the greatest hope of producing Gu Immortals. But because they have the greatest hope, they were obstructed by the other clans, resulting in their current state. "
"Three thousand years after the bet, Ni clan produced a talented refinement path Gu Immortal, Ni Ren, he was also the last Gu Immortal in Ni clan's history. Before his death, he made plans for the clan's future. He did not hesitate to violate the rules of the bet, he helped Ni clan and carefully selected some Immortal Gu to refine into the bloodline of his descendants. "
