High up in the sky, the winds howled.
"Die!" Master Tensuru roared, gathering his remaining strength and turning into a white light, charging towards Gen Guyue.
"You want to kill me, you are too naive." Blood wight opened its mouth, baring its fangs as it charged towards Gen Guyue.
Bam!
Amidst the loud explosion, a huge force surged over and blew the two of them far away.
Both were heavily injured!
"The mountains will not change, the rivers will continue to flow. Junior brother, today's enmity will be avenged in the future. "Gen Guyue laughed loudly, flapping the black bat wings on his back, about to fly away.
Suddenly, a huge shadow shrouded over him.
He raised his head, it was the heavily injured ironbeak flying crane king.
"It didn't die? Damn it … "Gen Guyue's expression changed.
After being intercepted by the ironbeak flying crane king, Master Tensuru also rushed over to pincer it. Finally, the flying crane king fell to the ground, and the blood wight was destroyed.
Master Tensuru grabbed Gen Guyue's head, hovering in the air, his gaze unfocused for a while before coming back to his senses.
He raised his head and laughed three times, before his laughter turned into sobs.
After venting for a while, he flew towards Qing Mao mountain. But he was suppressed by Bai Ning Bing's self-detonation, and had no choice but to use the Life-burying Jade Gu. When he broke out of the ice, he frantically searched, but only managed to dig out the dying Fangzheng.
…
The scene on the wall faithfully showed the scene at that time.
What happened next was not worth mentioning, it was the scenery on the way back from Master Tensuru.
Crane Gate was one of the oldest sects in Central Continent. Historically, when the sect members went out to carry out urgent missions, they would bring along a Gu worm to record the process of the mission.
Regardless of whether the mission was successful or not, the Gu Master would report back to the mountain, and the sect would conduct an assessment based on the recorded process.
Although Master Tensuru was a sect elder, he was not exempt from this rule.
But he was too senior, and few Gu Masters in Crane Gate had the qualifications to assess him. Even the current Immortal Crane Sect Leader didn't have it.
However, at this moment, the old man sitting cross-legged in front of Master Tensuru. But it was extraordinary.
He Fengyang, supreme elder, rank six Gu Master, known as Winged Crane Flying Immortal!
He was wearing a white robe with a black belt, and his sleeves were fluttering in the wind. He sat cross-legged on the praying mat.
His face was that of a teenager. Gentle as jade. His dark green eyebrows were long and slender, reaching all the way to his waist. His deep and serene eyes stared at the image on the wall, and then he slowly withdrew his gaze.
Master Tensuru stood respectfully in front of him, not even daring to breathe loudly.
As a matter of fact, Master Tensuru had been asleep for nearly a thousand years, and Immortal Shen was still his junior. However, the so-called qualifications were never based on age, but strength.
Although Master Tensuru was a Rank Five and was only one rank lower than He Fengyang, he was still a Rank Five Master. But this was the difference. It was like the difference between heaven and earth, like the difference between clouds and mud.
Rank Five was a mortal, Rank Six was an Immortal!
"Master Tensuru." He Fengyang spoke slowly, his voice was clear and gentle like a stream.
"Yes." Master Tensuru quickly responded.
"You killed the sect traitor this time, but did not retrieve the Blood Skull Gu. Instead, you were toyed with and suppressed by two juniors … "In the room, He Fengyang's voice reverberated.
Master Tensuru's head drooped even lower. He showed an ashamed expression.
"However, one of them had the Northern Dark Ice Soul physique. It is not strange that you were suppressed. What is gratifying is that you did something to remedy the situation. Let me ask you, is the youngster you brought back really the twin brother of the youngster in the painting? "He Fengyang asked.
"I have already investigated, it is so. The one who escaped was the elder brother Fang Yuan. The one who was captured was the younger brother Fangzheng. What is even more amazing is that these two brothers are not on good terms. After I showed Fangzheng the video of his brother slaughtering his clansmen, he wants to kill his brother immediately. "Master Tensuru laughed sinisterly.
He Fengyang nodded slightly: "It seems that you already have a plan. But do you have enough time? "
Master Tensuru's expression changed. His tone suddenly became gloomy, "You are right, Grand Elder. I have already reached the limit of my lifespan, I am a dying person, I only have a few days left to live. Even if I have the Life Burial Jade Gu, it will not change this situation. "
In his situation, only by finding the lifespan Gu could he solve the root of the problem.
But the lifespan Gu was hard to find, there were a few in the Crane Gate, but it was not his turn. It had always been firmly in the hands of the sect leader and the few supreme elders.
"So not long ago, I gave up my life's savings and Gu worms in exchange for a spirit incubating flea. I will bring Fangzheng into the sect and take him as my disciple. After that, I will guide him to refine the Kinship Bloodworm. After that, I will urge him to kill his brother and take back the Blood Skull Gu for the Crane Gate! "Master Tensuru said.
He Fengyang raised his eyebrows slightly: "It sounds like you are very confident in your plan. But will that Fangzheng really be manipulated by you? "
"Although his aptitude is not bad, he is still a child. After I die, I will store my soul in the spirit incubating flea, it will accompany him as he grows and guide his cultivation. The road has already been paved for him, he can only walk on it! "
At this point, Master Tensuru knelt on the ground, kowtowing and begging: "Elder, please give me one more chance!"
He Fengyang was silent for a while, then said: "Alright, I will grant you one last chance."
"Thank you elder, thank you elder!" Master Tensuru was overjoyed.
"Go. I will wait for your good news. "
"In less than twenty years, I will definitely succeed!" Master Tensuru's voice trembled with excitement, he could only retreat.
…
Southern Border, Wan Cheng mountain, Tie clan city.
The tall and thick black stone city walls stretched for thousands of li. Tie clan city started from the waist of the mountain, with countless stone houses and iron buildings arranged in order, stretching all the way to the peak of the mountain.
Under the sunlight, the city was bustling with people and carriages, it was a scene of prosperity.
The clan leader pavilion was near the peak of the mountain, it was heavily guarded and there were few people around. The patrol teams took turns patrolling, the Gu Masters were all capable and meticulous.
On the roof of the clan leader pavilion, two people stood.
One was a middle aged man, his expression was cold as steel, but his eyes hid some gentleness.
Standing beside him was a young girl, her gaze sad but firm.
It was Tie Ruo Nan.
"You have only returned for a few days? But this is already the nineteenth time you are asking for my resignation. Your father's death made me extremely sad. You lost your mother when you were young, and now your father, but you must remember, you still have me as your uncle. You are my niece, I will not let you take the risk. "Tie family's patriarch sighed.
Tie Ruo Nan's gaze was burning. She looked straight at Tie clan leader: "Uncle, do you know? Although father is gone, I feel happy for him in my sorrow. Father's life was determined to eradicate evil, to punish criminals. He did it, even when he was injured, he did not retreat. He persevered, walking his own path. And now. It is time for me to continue. "
Tie clan leader was dazed.
At this moment. He saw Tie Xue Leng's shadow on Tie Ruo Nan.
So similar, these eyes, this gaze.
In a daze, Tie clan leader seemed to have returned to his youth, Tie Xue Leng was standing beside him, staring at the Demon Suppression Tower at the peak of the mountain, saying resolutely: "I will kill all the criminals in the world, and let the world be filled with justice and love! I will imprison all the demonic path members in the Demon Suppression Tower. Even if I fill the Demon Suppression Tower to the brim! "
The vow of the past was still ringing in his ears. But his best friend was no longer around …
The eyes in front of him merged together, Tie clan leader shook his head, dispelling the memories. He looked at the stubborn girl in front of him with a gaze that was filled with admiration and love, worry and encouragement. "The path you've chosen is the path you've chosen. It is not easy to walk on. "
Tie Ruo Nan did not reply, but turned to look at the mountain peak.
At the highest point of Wan Cheng mountain, there was a majestic iron tower.
It had a majestic aura, as if it could hold up the sky, stepping on the tall mountains. White clouds were like fog, coiling around it, causing it to look blurry to outsiders. It added a layer of mystery to it.
This tower was not only a grand sight in southern border, it was famous in the world. Even in central continent, many people had heard of it.
Demon Suppression Tower!
The tower was a thousand feet tall, with close to a hundred floors. The tower was simple and unadorned. It was majestic and full of vicissitudes, giving off a righteous aura. Ever since it was built, Tie clan Gu Masters had imprisoned many demonic Gu Masters inside. Hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands?
Even Tie clan leader might not know.
It was the symbol of the righteous path, the deepest pride of Tie clan Gu Masters. Many demons and demonic heirs buried their ambitions here, leaving behind sorrow, regret, unwillingness and regret.
Demonic Gu Masters would turn pale when talking about it, while righteous Gu Masters would be exhilarated when talking about it!
Tie Ruo Nan spoke with a firm tone, as if talking to Tie clan leader, or to herself: "There is a Demon Suppression Tower at the peak of Wan Cheng mountain, I also have a Demon Suppression Tower in my heart. Father did not finish walking this path, so let me take his place and continue walking it! "
…
"I can't hold on anymore …" Chen Cui Hua felt dizzy, her vision blurred, and she felt nauseous from time to time, wanting to vomit. But she could not vomit, her whole body was weak, and waves of fatigue assaulted her.
Her original plan was to hold on for three days, but after one day, she knew she was too optimistic.
The harm the snake venom brought to her was getting worse. She knew she was forced into a cliff, and had to find a healing Gu worm as soon as possible.
"Damn it. If not for those two thieves, I might have already caught wild Gu worms and cured the snake venom. "She was restless, ever since she was poisoned, she had been trying to find a healing Gu worm. But the vast forest was filled with danger, and she did not have any methods to catch worms, so she had no progress.
Bai Ning Bing raised the dagger in her hand, about to cut her right ear.
"Wait." Fang Yuan stretched out his hand, grabbing her arm.
The sharp blade was just inches away from Bai Ning Bing's right ear.
To use the Earth Communication Ear grass, she needed to cut off her right ear and replace it. It was just an ear, it was not a big deal. Compared to the huge harvest, Bai Ning Bing did not feel any pity.
Demonic cultivators were vicious and merciless. They were vicious to others, but even more vicious to themselves!
And it was these people who could give up and give up that could accomplish great things.
"No need to cut it, she's out." Fang Yuan said, and started to move.
He used the Earth Communication Ear grass, and followed behind Chen Cui Hua.
Not long later, he heard the sounds of fighting.
The two stayed close to the lush shrubbery, sneaking closer. They saw this demonic female Gu Master fighting with a twin-headed boar.
After watching for a while, the two's eyes shone with excitement.
Chen Cui Hua's condition was terrible, her battle strength had dropped by more than half. As for this twin-headed boar, it was a solitary hundred beast king, possessing a defensive Gu.
"This will be a battle of attrition, we can take advantage of it."
"She really buried a charred thunder Potato Gu!"
"Strange. This Gu Master has fought for so long, but her primeval essence has not been used up yet? "
"Looks like she has some support Gu, like Heavenly Essence Treasure Lotus, Fish Bubble Gu and so on …"
After watching for a while, Fang Yuan felt that the time had come, and called out the Stealth Scales Gu, handing it to Bai Ning Bing.
Bai Ning Bing nodded in understanding. She hid her body, and quietly approached.
Bam!
With a loud explosion, the twin-headed boar stomped another charred thunder Potato Gu.
This time, it completely collapsed and could no longer get up. It fell on the ground, struggling continuously. A hole was blasted in its stomach. Its intestines slowly flowed out. Fresh blood flowed out.
"This damned boar, its skin is really thick. It exploded for so long before it died! "Chen Cui Hua breathed roughly, leaning on the tree trunk, her vision turning black.
This fierce battle had left her completely powerless, and she was overwhelmed by extreme fatigue.
The fear in her heart supported her, not letting her faint.
"I can't. I need to hurry back to the cave, if I faint in the wild, it's too dangerous! "
She was about to attack. Suddenly, she heard a strong wind sound.
"Strange, why is there wind?" This was her last question in life.
Bai Ning Bing patiently approached him step by step, her attacks as fast as lightning. He used the boar's death, and the demonic female Gu Master's relaxed state of mind to kill her in one strike!
Chen Cui Hua's head was crushed by the Chainsaw Golden Centipede. It was smashed into pieces. The headless body fell to the ground with a thud.
"Got it." Fang Yuan laughed heartily, walking over quickly.
Bai Ning Bing had already squatted down, her mind entering Chen Cui Hua's aperture, and said with some disappointment, "There are only three Gu in the aperture."
Gu worms refined by Gu Masters were somewhat stiff, not as agile as wild Gu worms.
The demonic female Gu Master was already dead. The aperture walls gradually darkened, but these three Gu were still inside.
But this was not a problem for Fang Yuan.
"Plunder Gu!" He willed, and easily took out these three Gu.
They were: A rice bag grass Gu and an iron thorn bramble Gu. And a Charred Thunder Bean Mother Gu.
Of course these were not all.
Fang Yuan searched for a while, and found a Hairy Leg Gu and a Jumping Grass Gu on the demonic female Gu Master's leg. Finally, he found a bookworm in her mangled brain matter.
But unfortunately, this bookworm had already been killed by Bai Ning Bing in one strike.
"This bookworm should be an inheritance item. The contents inside helped her learn many things about Gu Masters. There must be some secret recipes and so on. "Fang Yuan said regretfully.
"Forget about the bookworm. This demonic Gu Master actually doesn't have a healing Gu? "Bai Ning Bing was disappointed.
Fang Yuan was silent, not saying a word.
No healing Gu. He had expected this result. The demonic female Gu Master was affected by the snake venom, if she had a healing Gu, even if it was not sterilized, she would not be in such a sorry state.
What he was curious about was, in the battle earlier, the demonic female Gu Master's performance was very strange. Especially in terms of primeval essence, her recovery speed surpassed A grade, comparable to the ten extreme physiques.
But she was not one of the ten extreme physiques, and only had A grade aptitude. The Gu she collected did not help her recover her primeval essence.
"So this is how the chest is wrapped." At this time, Bai Ning Bing opened the demonic female Gu Master's chest wrapping cloth.
Fang Yuan's gaze focused, seeing a silver triangular tattoo on the corpse's chest.
"It's third watch Gu!" Fang Yuan was surprised.
"Third watch Gu, what is that?" Bai Ning Bing raised her brows and asked.
"This Gu is Rank five, and can speed up time by three times. It can only be used once, and is a consumable type Gu. When it is used on a Gu Master, it will form this silver triangular tattoo on their chest. "
Soon after, Fang Yuan explained in detail.
Third watch Gu, when used on a Gu Master, can speed up this Gu Master's personal time by three times.
The river of time surged and flowed at the same speed. To a normal person, one day was one day.
But to a person affected by the third watch Gu, one day was equivalent to three days of condensed time.
Chen Cui Hua, who was affected by the third watch Gu, would definitely have rapid cultivation progress. Others would spend a day nurturing their aperture, but she would spend three days nurturing it. The cultivation effect was obvious.
There was another huge benefit, and that was the primeval essence recovery speed. On her body, the river of time flowed faster, three times faster than normal people. Thus, the primeval essence recovery speed was also three times faster.
This was also why, in the battle earlier, her primeval essence recovery speed shocked Fang Yuan and Bai Ning Bing.
However, in balance, there are advantages and disadvantages.
Third watch Gu had such huge benefits, but it also had huge disadvantages!
First, the biggest disadvantage was the loss of lifespan. When the time flowed faster by three times, one's lifespan would be greatly shortened, reduced to a third of the original.
Chen Cui Hua had received the inheritance for less than a year, but to her, it was two to three years.
Secondly, any injuries that needed time to heal would worsen.
The green python's poison needed time to slowly permeate, and the damage would gradually worsen. When others were poisoned by this poison, one day was one day's effect. But when Chen Cui Hua was poisoned, one day was three days of accumulated effect.
This was also the main reason why she was in such a sorry state.
"To be affected by the third watch Gu, it seems this girl's inheritance is at least a Rank five inheritance. Unfortunately, a pearl before swine, falling into the hands of these people. "Bai Ning Bing snorted, looking at the headless corpse at his feet with some disdain.
In the long run, the third watch Gu was very harmful, forcefully reducing a Gu Master's lifespan to a third. But in fact, it was very useful for demonic Gu Masters.
Because demonic Gu Masters usually fought alone, without the support of a clan or sect. They also had to defend against the righteous path, so they had to prioritize survival.
Only surviving was the most important. Everything else was empty.
And the higher the cultivation, the higher the chance of survival.
The third watch Gu condensed the Gu Master's lifespan, condensing the brilliance of a lifetime and blossoming, like drifting cherry blossoms or fireworks, short but wonderful.
But without the third watch Gu, the cherry blossoms would have been eradicated before they could bloom.
"This is not strange. Gu Masters who use the third watch Gu are all brave and diligent people. But this girl's character is different. She is timid and likes to procrastinate, without the courage to move forward. It is only right for her to end up like this today. "Fang Yuan glanced at the corpse on the ground, before retracting his gaze.
Bai Ning Bing's expression was somewhat ugly.
Without a healing Gu, what would happen? This demonic female Gu Master in front of him was the best example.
Would this also be the portrayal of his future?
Fang Yuan smiled and patted her shoulder, consoling, "The paths of this world are all created by people. But everyone has their own path, no matter how broad the path of others is, it might not suit you. You and I are walking on our own paths, what is there to worry about? "
Bai Ning Bing heard this, and her expression was dazed, before gradually rising. She nodded, saying, "You are right."
Fang Yuan squinted his eyes, looking at the vast forest in front of him.
After killing this demonic Gu Master, he obtained several Gu worms, causing his strength to rise sharply.
But he also knew he lacked a healing Gu, and at the same time, he did not place his hopes on his luck.
Next, he might obtain a healing Gu, or he might end up like this demonic female Gu Master, dying without any gains, waiting anxiously for a cure. Maybe at the next moment, he would be trampled to death by a beast group, his life's ambition vanishing.
But what did it matter?
The path was under his feet, he just had to continue.
