It wasn't that Lord Ma didn't know Gu Qingfeng was mysterious and powerful, nor that he didn't know that Gu Qingfeng was unfathomable.
He knew.
After following Gu Qingfeng for more than a year, he had seen many methods that were inconceivable and incomprehensible to him.
But even so.
Witnessing Gu Qingfeng enlightening the minds of the nine Flaming Cloud Scarlet Tigers with a snap of his fingers, he was still shocked and in disbelief.
All this time, he had only heard that the intelligence of spirit beasts was gradually developed under domestication, and this required a very long period of time. It might take a hundred years, a thousand years, or even ten thousand years, depending on the spirit beast's bloodline.
Even if someone interfered, it would only play a guiding role. As for enlightening the minds of spirit beasts, although Lord Ma had heard of it, it was only hearsay. Moreover, the enlightening he heard was because the minds of those spirit beasts had already matured and only needed a suitable opportunity to be enlightened.
He had never heard of anyone who could enlighten the minds of spirit beasts with a snap of his fingers.
What made Lord Ma even more dumbfounded was that not only did Gu Qingfeng enlighten the minds of the nine Flaming Cloud Scarlet Tigers, but he also rewarded them with a tiger's gallbladder, a tiger's prestige, and finally, a domineering aura!
Tiger's gallbladder, tiger's prestige? You can even bestow something like this?
If enlightening the minds of spirit beasts was something he had heard of, then rewarding them with tiger's gallbladder and tiger's prestige was simply unheard of for Lord Ma.
He didn't know what Gu Qingfeng's gallbladder and tiger's prestige meant.
He only knew that the roar of the nine Flaming Cloud Scarlet Tigers was mighty and domineering, shaking his mind violently. It was as if he had heard the roar of the real king of beasts, making him extremely frightened.
"Let's go!"
Gu Qingfeng snapped his fingers, and the nine Flaming Cloud Scarlet Tigers roared and galloped forward.
After running forward for about an hour, Gu Qingfeng found two or three corpses in the swamp. These corpses were all bloody, either missing an arm or a leg. At a glance, it was obvious that they had been torn apart by the powerful force of the demonic beasts. Even the immortal armor on their bodies and the immortal weapons in their hands were broken.
As they continued forward, they found another corpse.
This corpse was still intact, without missing an arm or a leg. The immortal armor and flying sword on its body were also broken, and blood was still dripping from its mouth.
Gu Qingfeng took a closer look. Good fellow, although this person was on the verge of death, he was still alive, only his immortal's spirit's had been exhausted and he had fainted.
Speaking of which.
Gu Qingfeng was not a kind person, and he did not have the habit of helping the wounded and dying.
Since he was young.
Of course.
Occasionally, when he was on a whim, he would be willing to be a good person's't't a good person ''s a good person.
Jumping down from the carriage, he walked over and flipped the person over to take a look. It was actually a woman.
"God! This … isn't this … "
Looking at the woman who had fainted because of the exhaustion of her immortal's spirit, Lord Ma was shocked and shouted, "Isn't this Immortal Ziqing of Yunhua Cave?"
"Immortal Ziqing of Yunhua Cave?" Gu Qingfeng asked, "Why, do you know her?"
"Immortal Ziqing is very famous in our Bipolar Sky Region. I've seen her a few times, so I recognize her. She's an immortal conferred by the nine heavens, and a Seven Luminaries Sun Golden Immortal. How could she be in such a sorry state, could it be …"
Lord Ma had guessed that this must be the territory of some powerful demonic beast.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for there to be nothing in a radius of hundreds of miles.
Just now, he had encountered a few torn corpses on the way, and he was even more certain of this point.
Now that he had encountered the unconscious Immortal Ziqing, he was really scared out of his wits.
After all, Immortal Ziqing was no ordinary Seven Luminaries Sun Golden Immortal. Since she had been conferred by the nine heavens, it meant that she had been to the nine heavens, drank from the immortal river, and received the blessing of light. Her body and immortal spirit were especially pure. Not only was she powerful, but she also had the bloodline of light. This was a unique and unparalleled fortune.
If even Immortal Ziqing, a Seven Luminaries Sun Golden Immortal conferred by the nine heavens, was no match for that demonic beast, then Lord Ma really couldn't imagine how terrifying that demonic beast was.
Gu Qingfeng stood up, tilted his head back, and took a swig of wine, then spat it on Immortal Ziqing.
Almost instantly, Immortal Ziqing woke up with a start and stood up with a whoosh. First, she looked around to make sure there was no danger, then looked at Gu Qingfeng and Lord Ma opposite her. She stared at them cautiously and asked in surprise, "Who are you?"
"Passersby!"
Gu Qingfeng replied with a smile as he drank.
"Passersby?"
Immortal Ziqing looked at Lord Ma suspiciously, then looked at Gu Qingfeng. She knew very well how dangerous the depths of this swamp were. Even a natural Golden Immortal with the five elements as one would have a slim chance of survival if he came here. How could these two people, one was just a Seven Luminaries Sun Golden Immortal, and the other was even more unbelievable, having no cultivation at all? He wasn't even an immortal, not even a cultivator. He was just a mortal.
"Greetings, Immortal Ziqing, from your junior Horse Monkey." Perhaps seeing the confusion on Immortal Ziqing's face, Lord Ma pointed at Gu Qingfeng and introduced, "This is Grand Master. We are not bad people. We were really just passing by and saw you unconscious, so Grand Master came to save you."
Grand Master?
There were tens of thousands of Grand Masters in the vast wilderness, but she had never heard of a mortal Grand Master.
Immortal Ziqing was baffled. If it were any other time, she might have been in the mood to find out what was going on, but now she had urgent matters to attend to. She cupped her fists weakly and thanked them, "Thank you for saving me, both of you. Words cannot express my gratitude. I will definitely pay you a visit in the future to thank you. Farewell for now."
After that.
Immortal Ziqing was about to activate her immortal spirit and fly away, but as soon as she did so, she spat out a mouthful of blood and sat on the ground, paralyzed.
"Sister, not only are you seriously injured, but your immortal spirit is also exhausted. If you force it, it will only worsen your injuries."
"My senior sister … her life may be in danger now. I must find her as soon as possible."
Ignoring her injuries, Immortal Ziqing took out a white jade bottle, poured out all the immortal pills inside, and swallowed them.
Although Gu Qingfeng did not see what kind of immortal pill it was, he guessed that it must be a pill used to replenish immortal spirit yuan qi. He knew very well that with Immortal Ziqing's current injuries, the only thing she could do was stabilize her injuries. Her immortal spirit was especially weak at this time. Not only could she not circulate it, even refining immortal pills to replenish her yuan qi would be dangerous.
As expected.
Just as Immortal Ziqing was about to refine immortal pills to replenish her yuan qi, she spat out another mouthful of blood. This time, her injuries worsened. She was already seriously injured, but now she was on the brink of death and could not even speak.
"Looks like that senior sister is extraordinarily important to you." Gu Qingfeng gestured for Lord Ma to carry Immortal Ziqing onto the carriage and said, "Come, let's go ahead and take a look. Let's see if we can be the hero to save the beauty again."
