The terrifying black saber light swept past, and Li Xiu's body exploded into dust. He couldn't be more dead.
Although he was a Dao Enlightened Cultivator at his peak, and even walked a long distance on this path, his cultivation was powerful.
But now he was just a corpse covered in green hair, and he couldn't even move. As long as Gu Changge found his location, he would definitely not be able to escape.
"You just killed him like that?"
Gu Xian 'er was shocked. She thought that Gu Changge would ask the War Immortal some questions and squeeze him dry.
But she didn't expect that after he found him, he would kill him without a word.
This was very different from the mercenary Gu Changge in her impression.
"Are you going to wait for him to recover to his peak and then come find me?"
Gu Changge put away the Xuanyang Heavenly Saber and looked at her like she was an idiot.
Besides, the current Li Xiu didn't have much value. Besides gaining experience points, Gu Changge couldn't find any reason to keep him alive.
"You're not allowed to look at me like that." Gu Xian 'er gritted her teeth. She felt that in Gu Changge's eyes, she was a fool.
Gu Changge didn't have the time to bicker with her at this time.
He took action again, a palm hacking down, covering the sky dome, killing the elder who was in a sluggish state. Only then did he seriously size up this bronze palace.
If it wasn't for Li Xiu, it would be almost impossible for him to find such a place.
"An excellent place to nurture the soul. This place is perfect."
He nodded, and his eyes were satisfied.
Especially when he felt that there was a lot of life source gathering nearby. After years, it could even make the corpses develop intelligence.
Under this rich spiritual energy, it was suitable for him to set up some means to hide the rest of the aura.
"Why are you looking for a place to nurture the soul?"
Gu Xian 'er was also looking at this place. Could it be that Gu Changge was planning to revive someone?
"Of course it's for emergencies. If one day I unfortunately die, I have a way to come back to life." Gu Changge glanced at her and said casually.
Naturally, he could not mention the matter of the red-robed female demon to Gu Xian'er, so he casually came up with an excuse.
"Why did you suddenly die one day …"
Gu Xian 'er stared blankly for a moment. He didn't understand, but then he thought of Gu Changge's unresolved demon heart. He might be preparing for this.
She was in low spirits.
What would Gu Changge do if it were to erupt again one day?
If she was by his side, would he dig out her immortal bones, or would he choose to sever his own heart veins?
When Gu Xian 'er thought of this, he had an answer in his heart.
Just like the last time in the Nirvana Pond, he would rather cut off his own arms than hurt himself again.
She suddenly felt a little sad. Under Gu Changge's glorious appearance, there was a hidden danger that only he knew about.
"If that day really comes, I will give you my immortal bones. I can still live without them …"
Gu Xian 'er raised her beautiful eyes and stared at Gu Changge, as if she wanted him to understand.
"Why did you hit me?"
However, Gu Changge did not let her finish her sentence. He hit her head again, making her cry in pain.
He shook his head slightly and said, "You silly thing, what have you been thinking about all day."
He naturally knew what Gu Xian 'er was thinking about.
This guy's ability to fill in the blanks has always been one of the best.
Gu Xian 'er glared at him, very dissatisfied. "I'm doing this for your own good. You arrogant guy, you've always been unwilling to lower your head, unwilling to be tainted by the world."
"Would it kill you to understand other people's good intentions?"
Gu Changge sighed slightly, then grabbed her cheeks and rubbed them hard. Her beautiful eyes were filled with murderous intent, as if she was going to fight him to the death.
"I know, you silly girl."
He smiled and let go of her.
"Hey …" Gu Xian 'er was prepared to be mocked by Gu Changge, but she did not expect him to say that. She was stunned for a moment.
However, she quickly reacted and snorted. "You're the silly one. It's good that you know."
"Don't think too much. I just don't want to owe you a favor. This time about Xian 'er, if not for you, it would have been a little troublesome."
After all, Li Xiu's identity was a War Immortal, not an ordinary person.
Although Shen Xian 'er was a direct descendant of the Gu family, her surname was not Gu. All these years, she had not gone to the Upper Realm and had not entered the Gu family to worship the ancestors.
So this matter, the Gu family would not necessarily interfere.
After that, Gu Changge made some arrangements here. He personally carved many strange and mysterious runes. He was very careful and had never been like this before.
Because he had other plans for this place. It was to deal with the female devil in red who was about to appear in the Demon Burial Abyss.
So he would not allow any mistakes here. Otherwise, it could lead to a mistake in his plan and bring about more trouble.
The Bronze Palace was very old. It was unknown which era it was from. There were many strange murals carved on the walls. There were ancient people kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to totems.
Here, Gu Changge kept attacking. His five fingers glowed, and lines of runes were shot into the surroundings by him. Brilliant lights intertwined like small stars.
At the same time, lines of runes of the Great Dao appeared and condensed into chains of rules, firmly locking the void around the Bronze Palace.
"The soul-nourishing effect here can be strengthened a little …"
"This way, I won't be able to see any abnormalities."
Gu Changge directly turned his mana into a carving knife and personally dug out a pool in the depths of the palace. He set various restrictions in it and gathered the life force nearby.
Buzz!!
In the pool, brilliance began to appear. It was incomparably dazzling. There was dense mist there, containing rich life essence.
In the end, he even carved around the spatial crack outside again, obtaining many secret treasures to conceal the aura of this place. Only then did he relax.
"I hope she won't find out when the time comes. But I hope that moment won't come."
Gu Changge's gaze was faint. Many thoughts flashed through his mind. With a thought, he felt that this place was completely under his control. Finally, his figure moved and left this place.
"You actually took so long to set this up …"
Gu Xian 'er, who had been waiting for Gu Changge outside the spatial crack for a long time, was surprised to see him come out.
Gu Changge nodded and did not explain anything. He said, "Let's go."
Then everyone turned into divine rainbows, broke through the space, and left this place.
Now that the war had broken out in the Boundary Monument Sea, all the races had sent their elites here, intending to cross to the Eight Desolates Ten Regions. Here, they could feel the terrifying fluctuations from afar.
Those were the fluctuations of Emperor weapons. Now that the Immortal Realm did not appear, the Emperor Realm existences were the peak battle strength of the Upper Realms.
In this battle, many who had attained the Dao hurried over as the vanguard to open up a path.
The Eight Desolates Ten Regions were not to be trifled with. Faced with the invasion of the Upper Realms, they erupted with unimaginable resistance. It could be said that they were of one mind.
Both sides were in a deadlock. Many experts fell near the Boundary Monument Sea. Even from far away, they could hear the sounds of killing and the smell of blood.
One had to admit that this battle was very vast. Almost all the orthodoxies and forces of the Upper Realms were involved.
Even the Longevity Gu Family was no exception. They sent an army of millions and were crossing the Boundary Monument Sea.
However, Gu Changge had no plans to join in the fun now.
He would definitely go to the battle of the Boundary Monument Sea, but not now.
On the way out, he opened the Heavenly Dao Treasure Chest dropped by killing Li Xiu.
A burst of golden brilliance flashed, and a small golden cauldron appeared. It was brilliant and dazzling. It bobbed up and down in the void, exuding a sense of mystery.
"The Golden Cauldron of Providence is formed by the accumulation of the providence of all living beings. It can gather providence points …"
"This is a good thing. Apart from this, I have another way to gather providence points."
Looking at the many introductions, Gu Changge was somewhat dissatisfied. He felt that if the Golden Cauldron of Providence was placed in an imperishable sect or supreme Dao, it could even steal their providence without them knowing.
This was much more useful than the World Tree Sapling he obtained before.
Apart from this, the providence points obtained from killing the War Immortal Li Xiu were not small either. He exchanged them for several Transcendence Bones, increasing his strength slightly.
Gu Changge led the group on their way. They left this place, far away from the war-torn land.
Along the way, they could see many ancient warships crushing the heavens. There were also all kinds of armored horses charging over, rumbling as they passed.
Many young geniuses of the Upper Realms participated in this battle. No forces were spared.
Especially when they found out that the Boundary Monument Sea could only be crossed by cultivators with lower cultivation bases, their battle intent surged. They wanted nothing more than to quickly go over and fight over there.
They intended to make a name for themselves in this battle. The fastest way was to kill the creatures and cultivators of the Eight Desolates Ten Regions, using this to shake the world.
"Are we returning to Peach Village now?"
Along the way, Gu Xian 'er asked. It had been almost a year since the last time they returned to Peach Village. Although a year was negligible for cultivators.
She missed her family and several masters in Peach Village.
She grew up in Peach Village since she was young. Her feelings for Peach Village were much deeper than those of the Gu family.
"Let's go back to Peach Village. There's no use for you to participate in the battle of the Eight Desolates Ten Regions."
Gu Changge nodded. He had some things he wanted to confirm with Peach Demon. Sooner or later, he would have to make a trip to Peach Village.
Then, he used his supreme divine ability to open up a spatial passage. Terrifying spatial runes appeared, tearing apart the void in front of them.
They began to cross. With Gu Changge's current strength, it was easy for him to travel through the void. He crossed millions of li in an instant.
Along the way, he could see silver brilliance intertwining. Each strand was extremely dazzling and heavy. This was the chaotic fog in the void. It was rare to see it.
The Upper Realm was vast and boundless. It was divided into the Inner and Outer Realms. The Peach Village they were heading to was in the Abandoned Land of Immortals in the Outer Realms. It was very far away from the Boundary Monument Sea.
"I'm afraid that even a real Supreme Being would not be a match for you now."
Gu Xian 'er was shocked. She noticed that the void in front of her was constantly distorting.
The path became blurry. Because Gu Changge's physical body was extremely strong, it caused the space that came into contact with him to collapse.
Even a Supreme Being would find it difficult to do such a thing.
She felt that Gu Changge's current strength had far surpassed the average Supreme Being. She really did not know how he cultivated.
"A real Supreme Being?"
Gu Changge smiled and did not say much. With his current strength, even if he faced a real Supreme Being, he did not need to be afraid.
However, it was too shocking to say this out loud.
Although there were people who carried the title of Inheritor of the Demonic Arts, it was inevitable that people would doubt him … Because his cultivation speed was too shocking. It was unbelievable.
However, speaking of this, Gu Changge felt that even a real Inheritor of the Demonic Arts would not be able to cultivate as fast as he did.
This was probably beyond the knowledge of cultivators.
"Su Qingge must have had a hard time recently. I heard that she was being hunted down everywhere."
Gu Changge thought of a lot of news and smiled meaningfully.
Half a month later, the void blurred again and the crack disappeared. Gu Changge led the group out of it and appeared on a mountain peak.
The mountains were undulating and the vegetation was lush. In the distance, they could see a desolate and vast ancient forest shrouded in fog. They had to cross it to see the mysterious Peach Village.
"Abandoned Land of Immortals, I'm back."
Gu Xian 'er looked at these familiar scenes and felt a sense of homecoming in her heart.
In the past, she often took the big red bird to cross the Abandoned Land of Immortals in search of all kinds of spiritual treasures and rare treasures.
Here, she often encountered life and death situations. Many times, she encountered powerful ferocious beasts and fought with them to gain experience.
This made her feel excited. She stood on her tiptoes and looked forward.
The last time she came back, she had Gu Changge with her. Many uncles and aunts made fun of her, saying that she brought her sweetheart back to her parents' home. This made her feel embarrassed for a long time.
However, this time, Gu Changge was still with her. She did not know what her uncles and aunts would say.
"Wait for me here."
Gu Changge ordered the subordinates behind him and then led Gu Xian 'er to Peach Village.
Soon, they crossed the vast wilderness and saw a mysterious peach tree in front of the village.
The village was not big. It was surrounded by a fence and there were spiritual herbs and other things around it. Strands of colorful light flowed and white fog filled the air, giving people a sense of peace.
Strands of spiritual energy appeared all around, nourishing this place.
Auspicious beasts roared and birds flapped their wings. It was very peaceful, like a paradise. At the entrance of the village, there were old people and children playing. It was very peaceful.
The peach tree at the entrance of the village was dazzling and colorful. Its branches and leaves were lush, and it was enveloped in a faint divine light.
Every peach leaf had mysterious patterns on it. It looked incomparably ancient, and it was unknown how long it had been standing there.
Although it had not bloomed, it had a shocking sense of transcendence and holiness.
A little girl, who was carved from jade, wore a large cotton robe. Her hair was soft and she looked very obedient.
She sat on a rock at the entrance of the village, swinging her white feet. She looked outside the village from time to time, as if she was looking for someone.
At this time, she seemed to have noticed Gu Changge outside the village. She was a little stunned, then rubbed her eyes, thinking that she was hallucinating. When she looked again, she finally found that person was the Master she had been thinking about day and night.
"Master …"
Her face was full of surprise, and her eyes were filled with Gu Changge's figure. She ran towards him, stumbling and stumbling.
"I was wondering why I heard the magpies at the entrance of the village this morning. It turns out that Xian 'er is back."
"She even brought someone back to her parents' home. This girl has been gone for a year, and she is finally willing to come back. "
At this moment, not only did she notice Gu Changge and Gu Xian 'er, the rest of the villagers also noticed them. Many people came out to greet them happily.
Peach Village became lively. Many uncles and aunties came out and surrounded Gu Xian 'er and Gu Changge, sizing them up.
In particular, a few aunties looked at her stomach carefully and then sighed. Gu Xian 'er was stunned and a little confused.
Then she realized what this meant. A blush appeared on her delicate face, and she glared fiercely at Gu Changge.
It was all his fault. He caused her to be so embarrassed and misunderstood by the aunties.
However, Gu Changge didn't care about her. He was squatting down and holding Yao Yao's hand. With a gentle expression, he asked her how she was doing.
Yao Yao was very surprised and happy. She shared her life in Peach Village with Gu Changge.
She liked these peaceful days. Not only was there a peach demon like her sister, but there were also other villagers who treated her like family.
She didn't have to worry about anything here, except that sometimes she would miss him.
Gu Changge smiled and stroked her hair. "It's good that you like it here. In the future, when Master has time, I will come and visit you."
As he spoke, he took out many little trinkets that he picked in the mortal world and gave them to her. When he bought them for Gu Qingyi, he thought of Yao Yao and picked them together.
Now it seemed that Yao Yao wasn't interested in cultivation, but liked these little trinkets very much.
Although she was sensible and well-behaved, she was still just a child.
"Yes, thank you, Master. Yao Yao likes it here. There are many children to play with me. The little animals are very obedient. "
Yao Yao's eyes curved into crescents. She was very happy to finally see the Master that she missed so much.
Gu Changge was relieved to see that she was so happy. This saved him some trouble.
"Xian 'er, Auntie has been there before …"
On the other side, an aunty pulled Gu Xian 'er aside and started nagging.
Gu Xian 'er's face was full of anger. She was so embarrassed that she wanted to die. She felt that her ears were burning. She was Gu Changge's cousin. What were they thinking?
However, the aunties didn't care about her. From their point of view, with Gu Xian 'er's personality and her bringing Gu Changge back to Peach Village so many times, they wouldn't believe that she didn't do anything.
No matter how Gu Xian 'er explained, they didn't believe her. Gu Xian' er felt very helpless. In the end, she could only put the blame on Gu Changge's head. She glared at him fiercely.
Today, Peach Village was very lively. Gu Xian 'er brought Gu Changge back again. She also brought gifts for everyone. For example, there were divine medicines, pills, and so on. All of them could prolong one's life and strengthen one's Qi and blood.
Although she was stingy, stingy, and greedy on normal days, she was very generous in front of the Peach Village's elders and villagers. She almost emptied her family's property.
In the end, Gu Xian 'er's masters appeared and checked her current cultivation situation. They were quite satisfied. Although she couldn't compare to Gu Changge, she was far better than the young supremes of her generation.
In their eyes, Gu Changge was a monster. He couldn't be judged by common sense. Even now, they couldn't see through Gu Changge's cultivation.
This made them very shocked and felt that it was inconceivable. The last time they saw Gu Changge was more than a year ago.
How did he increase his cultivation so much in just a year?
However, this involved Gu Changge's secret. Although they were curious, they didn't dare to ask.
Gu Xian 'er and Gu Changge returned to Peach Village. Everyone naturally prepared a sumptuous meal for them. There were all kinds of exquisite delicacies, emitting a tempting aroma.
Although it was far inferior to the banquet of the Longevity Gu Clan, it had a different flavor.
At the banquet, everyone toasted each other. It was very lively.
A few aunties and uncles didn't care about Gu Changge's identity. They naturally asked him about his relationship with Gu Xian 'er.
To this, Gu Changge naturally gave a watertight answer. Gu Xian 'er, who was staring at him like a tiger watching its prey, let out a long sigh of relief. She was worried that she would hear something embarrassing from this guy.
However, in the end, she couldn't help but feel an inexplicable sense of loss. She felt that Gu Changge's answer didn't have any other meaning.
After the banquet ended, everyone went to rest. Gu Xian 'er also returned to her previous room to rest.
The people of Peach Village specially cleaned a clean room for Gu Changge. However, he didn't go to rest. Instead, he went to the peach tree outside the village alone.
He held the wine from the banquet in his hand. He seemed to be drinking by himself. Then, he sat down beside the peach tree.
The moonlight was clear and cold. It sprinkled down mottled silver fragments on the ground. It was like a stirred pool of lake water. It gave people a feeling of tranquility and seclusion.
The peach tree was ancient and tall. Its branches and leaves were lush. Each peach leaf was like a simple piece of art. There were all kinds of mysterious patterns on it.
Under the moonlight, there was a sense of vicissitudes. However, more than that, there was a sparkling glow. It was mysterious and dazzling. It swayed with the wind.
Gu Changge didn't speak. He just drank by himself beside the peach tree. His gaze was distant. He seemed to be thinking about something.
Then, a boundless white fog appeared. In an instant, it enveloped the surrounding area.
"You've got guts. How dare you do this in front of me …"
A soft and pleasant voice sounded. It was like the sound of nature. It carried with it an ethereal immortal feeling.
In the next moment, a slender figure walked out from the peach tree. Her face was blurry, but there was an aura of peerless beauty. Her eyes were gentle like autumn water.
However, there was a sense that seemed to be able to see through the universe.
The peach demon revealed her figure. She seemed to be sizing up Gu Changge with great interest. Just like the first time they met, she wanted to see through him.
Gu Changge was still drinking by himself. When he heard this, he raised his head and smiled. "Senior, are you planning to drink?"
The peach demon shook her head. "I never drink. I don't like the taste."
"What a pity. Senior, you didn't have the chance to taste such good wine." Gu Changge smiled.
The peach demon didn't respond. She just stared at him. Then, she said, "When I was combing Yao Yao's Dao injury, I remembered some memories …"
"Oh, what memories? I'm a little curious. "Gu Changge seemed to be a little surprised. However, he was slightly moved in his heart.
Since the peach demon and Yao Yao didn't merge into one body, she shouldn't have remembered everything.
He wasn't sure if the images he saw the last time he saw the peach demon were formed from his own memories, or if she deliberately showed them to him so that he could see them.
But no matter what, the peach demon and the Immortal Academy's Old Shi were old acquaintances.
There was no doubt about that.
And the red-robed female devil, the peach demon, and Old Shi were obviously from the same era. It had a lot to do with his identity as the Demon Lord.
Gu Changge always felt that he wasn't the Demon Lord. However, he had to be. The cause and effect of many things had been predestined from the beginning.
Including the relationship between the peach demon, Old Shi, and Chan Hongyi.
Now that the peach demon mentioned this to him, could it be that she was suspecting something?
"I remember that I had a friend who liked to wear red. She said that she would work hard to cultivate and not disappoint her master. Then, when she grew up, she would marry her master …"
The peach demon spoke slowly. When she spoke, her eyes were fixed on Gu Changge. It seemed that she wanted to say something to him, but also to herself.
"When I was still a peach tree, I only had a weak spiritual intelligence. It was she who saved me from the mouth of a demon. My original form was a heartless peach tree. I didn't know what was beyond life and death … But with her, I understood what friends were. Unfortunately, that was only an experience in the past. Now, it seems that countless years have passed, lost in the forbidden era. Perhaps I'm the only one who still remembers it."
"Later on, she brought me to her master's side. At that time, I had another friend, a rock. I never thought that an ordinary stone, a hollow peach tree, even if it had spiritual intelligence, would one day be able to embark on the path of cultivation like the other demons. Her master was very strict with her, but he treated us very well. He didn't despise us because of our origins. "
"He taught me how to read. I wanted him to give me a name, but he said that a name is very important … so he taught me the word 'demon' …"
Her voice was very calm, as pleasant as the sound of nature. Unfortunately, at this time, it was incomparably lonely.
"Senior, do I know this friend of yours?"
Gu Changge put down the wine, his expression unchanged. In a daze, the scene at that time appeared in front of his eyes.
A fairy was hugging her knees as she sat on a boundless field. Behind her was a withered peach tree.
This demon was very beautiful. She had long dark green hair, like a mirror, bright enough to reflect people.
She looked at the sea of clouds in the distance, her eyes reflecting the clear sky and mountains. But her expression was incomparably lonely, as if she was waiting for someone.
"I don't know."
The peach demon shook her head, her words ambiguous.
She carefully stared at Gu Changge. Seeing that he didn't look up, she sighed softly, no longer as casual as before.
"You came to the Peach Village this time to find me, right?"
The peach demon asked.
Gu Changge nodded. "Senior, how much do you know about the Demon Burial Abyss?"
The peach demon was stunned, and then seemed to be puzzled. She asked, "You want to go to the Demon Burial Abyss?"
Gu Changge's expression didn't change. "I'm just asking. I thought of something and was a little curious. Senior, you must have lived for a long time, so you should know a lot about it."
"I don't know much about the Demon Burial Abyss. If you want to know, you can go and take a look yourself."
The peach demon suddenly laughed. This laughter was different from the soft and pleasant one just now. There was an indescribable demonic nature to it.
And as soon as she finished speaking, her voice turned into light dust and disappeared, returning to the peach tree without a sound.
Seeing this, Gu Changge's expression didn't change much. Then, he got up and left.
Judging from what happened today, the situation was very unfavorable for him. He came to find the peach demon just to see her attitude towards him.
From this attitude, he could naturally see some of her thoughts. He could also see if she had doubts about his identity.
The last time Old Shi saw him for the first time, he was very shocked and felt that it was because of the similarity between them.
But this time, the peach demon changed her attitude and even recalled the past.
Wasn't this a test for him?
So now it seemed that once the red-robed demoness saw him, she would definitely recognize him.
