"I see, you have joined that organization now?"

"No, I don't like it."

"Loners?"

"Yes! Senior Brother Cheng doesn't know? Many people are laughing at me for not overestimating my abilities."

"It's true that you are overestimating your capabilities!" Cheng An nodded and said: "It's too difficult to be a lone walker. There were loners in the history of Tianmeng, but they later joined the organization. If you change your mind in the future, you can come to me."

"good!"

Cheng An patted Gu Shuo on the shoulder: "But I won't laugh at you, you are a genius."

Gu Shuo looked strange: "Senior Brother Cheng is an ascetic monk?"

Cheng An shook his head and said: "I'm not really an ascetic monk, but I've been in seclusion during this period, accumulating breakthroughs. So I don't know much about you newcomers. What's the matter?

It seems that you should also be a famous figure? Tell me, senior brother."

"I am not a man of the hour, but because of two things, many people in Tianmeng know me. One is my qualifications, and the other is my identity as a lone traveler."

"Your qualifications? I understand. Your qualifications must be very high, otherwise you would not choose the path of a lone traveler."

"No!" Gu Shuo looked calm: "It's because my qualifications are very rubbish. I am a low-grade water-fire dual spiritual root."

"Ah?" Cheng An glanced at Gu Shuo in surprise. In just a moment, he regained his composure. In this way, Gu Shuo was surprised:

"Aren't you surprised?"

"I don't care if you upgraded your cultivation to Golden Core before entering the Heavenly Alliance. But now that you have entered the Heavenly Alliance, as long as you don't lack the Heavenly Alliance points, qualifications are not a problem. The Heavenly Alliance has many holy places for cultivation.

There are also pills to supplement your qualifications, which can solve your qualification problem. Therefore, I am not surprised that you have now reached the realm of Sea Lotus. On the contrary, I am surprised at the speed at which you earn Tianmeng points. Even if you are a

Alchemist."

"Before I came to Tianmeng, I accumulated some pills."

"I understand! If you have any questions in the future, you can come to me. Now I will receive 20,000 Tianmeng points." Cheng An said cheerfully.

Gu Shuo crossed the 20,000 Heavenly Alliance points and said sincerely: "Thank you, Senior Brother Cheng."

Cheng An smiled and said: "Don't care about those who isolate and laugh at you. As long as your cultivation continues to improve, your environment will eventually change. Those who laugh at and isolate you will also associate with you and even become friends. You

Don't mind their isolation and ridicule towards you now.

Because this is normal thinking, no one will be optimistic about a lone traveler.

Even if they isolate and laugh at you, they haven't done any real harm to you, right?

Don't hold yourself against a little isolation and ridicule. Being in harmony with light and dust is the way to go."

Gu Shuo smiled and waved his hands and said: "I don't care about those things. If you only care about everything in your heart, wouldn't it take up space on the road?"

"You're right. What we monks believe in is repaying a grudge and repaying a favor. But don't take it to heart if it's not a grudge. It affects the path. Just treat it with indifference. Come on, let's leave a contact.

brand."

Cheng An took out a messenger jade sword, and Gu Shuo also hurriedly took out a messenger jade sword. After they left contact marks on the jade swords, Cheng An said goodbye and left. Looking at Cheng An's leaving back, Gu Shuo's face flashed.

Make a smile.

The joy in his heart was not because he had practiced Hong Shi to perfection. It was because of his friendship with Cheng An.

It seems that even if you are traveling alone, you can still make friends!

Go to the ruins.

Gu Shuo immediately set off for the eastern ruins.

The wind and clouds are flowing, so walk on the clouds.

Seven days later.

From a distance, he could see the murderous intent rising into the sky. Even the sunlight could not penetrate that area of ​​the world, and it was so gray that people were frightened. The distance was still far, and Gu Shuo felt the murderous intent surging in his body, and the ruins there.

Respond.

"Whoosh..."

Gu Shuo's figure fell on the edge of the ruins and looked around.

A small market has actually formed here.

Walking slowly through the market, there are wine shops, teahouses, inns, shops, and open-air sales. It is not surprising when you think about it. The monks who come out of the ruins always need to rest before they can enter again. More

What's more, there are injured monks. There are also things obtained from the ruins that need to be sold.

Passing from one end of Fangshi to the other, Gu Shuo was already standing in front of the boundary entering the war ruins, staring inside.

What a ruin.

The earth is riddled with ravines, and not a single blade of grass grows.

Some monks were sitting cross-legged not far away, using the murderous intention here to understand.

Gu Shuo stepped into the ruins of the war, and a faint murderous intention invaded. To Gu Shuo, this murderous intention was like a breeze paving the way, and he walked straight towards the depths. As he went deeper, the murderous intention gradually

It became rich. When the monks passed by Gushuo, they opened their eyes and looked at him. Seeing his age and unfamiliar face, they couldn't help but show a little surprise.

This person should be a newcomer this year, right?

How dare you go deep?

Gu Shuo looked around as he walked, and then he was disappointed. He originally thought that he might be able to pick up something, such as a magic weapon, a magic weapon, a storage bag, a storage ring, etc.

But there are no hairs!

From time to time, I saw monks practicing cross-legged. One monk saw his behavior and couldn't help laughing:

"Don't look, you won't be able to pick up anything. The stuff has long been destroyed by the sword. There may be some on the second and third floors, but our cultivation is not suitable for going there."

As he spoke, he stood up with a hint of excitement on his face: "I have finally entered the secret of killing, and I can go deeper."

Gu Shuo's face turned red when the monk said that. The monk didn't take it seriously and walked side by side with Gu Shuo inside:

"First time here?"

Valley grain

"Um!"

"Then you must be the new member of this class."

"Yes!" Gu Shuo nodded honestly.

"I am a native of Tianmeng. Although I am only a Jindan now, I have been here many times. Since you are a newcomer, you are also a Jindan, right?"

"yes!"

He glanced at Gu Shuo's old face and said, "At your age, you shouldn't be qualified for the Tianxuan Competition."

The corner of Gu Shuo's mouth twitched: "I look a bit mature."

"Is this just old age? Forget it, you are a newcomer. It is your first time here. It is already good to be able to go this far. But remember, don't rush into the second floor. That is not the place for you to go. Okay, here

The killing intent is pretty good, let’s practice here.”

This person was a familiar person. Gu Shuo smiled and said, "I'll go further. Junior brother, let's practice here."

"Alas... It's a senior brother, not a junior brother. Alas, you are really moving forward!"

Gu Shuo raised his hand and waved it without looking back, and continued to walk forward. The monk clicked his tongue: "It seems that he is also a peerless genius, I don't know what his name is."

Thirteen days later.

Gu Shuo stood in front of a stone tablet. There were only three words on the stone tablet: Second Floor.

Gu Shuo stepped away from the stone monument and continued to move forward. After walking a short distance, about a thousand meters, Gu Shuo felt that the murderous intent was fierce and had reached the limit of what he could bear. He sat cross-legged.

After thinking about it, he stood up again, set up an isolation formation, took out the Liuhe Disk and opened it. Then he sat cross-legged in the Liuhe Disk, drank high-grade tree spirit sap, and while practicing, he began to understand what was going on here.

Killing intent.

The war ruins are very large, and the number of people entering the second level is smaller than that of the first level. The chance of encountering each other is smaller.

If they were not enemies or had competing interests, they would not break out into a fight. Therefore, Gu Shuo practiced quietly for a month without any interference.

This month, Gu Shuo's Sea of ​​Knowledge Lotus has grown to twenty-four leaves, which is only twelve leaves away from the thirty-six-leaf lotus. After seeing the remaining high-grade tree spirit liquid, Gu Shuo feels that it should be enough for him to cultivate until he is thirty.

Six-leaf lotus. However, every time a lotus grows, it not only consumes tree spirit sap, but also consumes 100 million water spirit stones and fire spirit stones. This consumption is really not something other monks can afford. In fact, from ancient times, Shuo

In the more than two years since he entered Tianmeng Bicui Island, he has consumed more than 2 billion water and fire spirit stones each. Although he still has more than 20 billion each left, he really doesn't know how much water and fire spirit stones are needed during the pregnancy and infant period.

Spiritual stone.

But it’s definitely the big one!

But it was not without effect. Not only was his cultivation improved, but the tempering of his body by the water and fire spirit stones also made his body's toughness reach the mid-Nascent Soul stage.

The toughness of this body is really important.

If spiritual power and spiritual consciousness are compared to water, then the body is a container. If this container is not strong enough, it will be burst by the spiritual consciousness and spiritual power inside. Therefore, body toughness is also extremely important for a monk's breakthrough.

Basic conditions. And now Gu Shuo has undoubtedly solved one of the foundations for breaking through the Nascent Soul, and is solving the second basic condition, which is to cultivate the thirty-six-leaf lotus.
To be continued...
