The incident about Monk Wuwei happened. During the originally happy campfire dinner, Gu Zheng and the other three didn't say anything more. Although the remaining three dishes were good, they were also very boring to eat.
Early the next morning, Head Yang of the Tianxin Sect arrived as promised.
"Master Gu, I invited you to our Wufeng Island as a guest, but the unpleasant incident happened last night. I'm really sorry! Don't worry, Master Gu, I will definitely give you a gift after the Fish Festival is over.
compensate."
After some polite greetings, Manager Yang apologized profusely.
"When I come to your Wufeng Island as a guest, the food and drinks are all yours. I also know that you don't want the unpleasant things like last night to happen, but it has happened, so let it pass! As for saying
There is no need to give any compensation, otherwise it will look too unreasonable."
Gu Zheng's voice paused, and then he added: "Unless it is said that Master Yang has other motives for being so enthusiastic about me, if that is the case, then let's speak openly. I don't like to beat around the bush."
"Master Gu is a happy man!"
Leader Yang laughed at himself: "Actually, I also know that if I treat Leader Gu so enthusiastically, Leader Gu will definitely not think that this is the hospitality of our Tianxin sect. Since Leader Gu wants me to tell the truth, then I will tell him the truth.
The leader has revealed everything!"
Leader Yang stood up, looked at the sea outside the window, and asked seemingly inexplicably: "Does Leader Gu think the sea area near Wufeng Island is big?"
"It's huge, beyond my imagination. It can hide such a large area of the sea. The immortal formation deployed by the Tianxin Sect is equally powerful, which surprises me!"
Gu Zheng answered without hesitation. When he first saw Wufeng Island, he had lamented the power of the immortal formation.
"Since the ancient leader is also curious about this, he will definitely think that the immortal formation was arranged by our ancestors of the Tianxin Sect, right?" Leader Yang asked again.
"Yes, I do think so. But I am also a little curious. The ancestor of Tianxin Sect who can arrange such a powerful immortal formation must have reached the level of Golden Immortal! But in the history of Tianxin Sect
There is no such strong person in the world, not even an immortal cultivator, and the highest cultivation level seems to be only the late fifth level."
Since he was going to be a guest of Tianxin Sect, Gu Zheng, of course, also did some research on some information about Tianxin Sect.
"Master Gu, actually this Tianxin sect is not that Tianxin sect!" Master Yang sighed.
"How do you say this?" Gu Zheng asked curiously.
Faced with Gu Zheng's curiosity, Master Yang told everything about the Tianxin Sect.
According to Master Yang, the inheritance of the ‘Tianxin Sect’ has been going on for a long time.
The ‘Tianxin Sect’ in the era of prosperity should be a reclusive sect, with only a few members in the sect, but it is very powerful.
Later, the people of the Tianxin Sect on Wufeng Island disappeared. After the original residents of the island accidentally entered the ruins of the Tianxin Sect, they discovered that the immortals in their eyes were no longer there.
When the people of the 'Tianxin Sect' were on Wufeng Island, although they did not recruit disciples, they did guide some islanders with good qualifications to practice.
It was the islanders who received the guidance who founded the current Tianxin Sect after discovering some classics on cultivation in the ruins of the 'Tianxin Sect', and then developed step by step to this day.
For the absolute top leaders of the Tianxin Sect in the past, they all have the same problem, which is to practice according to the mental methods left by the "Tianxin Sect". Although the progress of cultivation is not slow, it can be achieved after the cultivation reaches the late stage of the fifth level.
After the peak, the mysterious realm in common sense will not appear!
Without the emergence of the mysterious realm, it is naturally impossible to become an immortal cultivator! The reason for this is because the "Tianxin Sect" mental method they practice is not the complete version.
The entire "Tianxin Sect" mental method is actually hidden in a box that the people of the Tianxin Sect brought out from the ruins of the "Tianxin Sect".
Regarding this box, the people of the Tianxin Sect left a message slip. The jade slip not only revealed several items in the box, but also told the person who got the box that if he wanted to open the box, he must be a qualified person.
OK.
What is a destined person? A person who can make the ‘Tianxin Pearl’ found in the ruins shine is a destined person.
There are five ‘Tianxin Pearls’ in total, and they are carried by disciples of the Tianxin Sect all the year round, traveling around the world looking for the right person.
Originally, the Tianxin Sect thought that as long as they found the destined person, they would be able to open the box left by the 'Tianxin Sect', but this was not the case.
Over the course of thousands of years, people from the Tianxin Sect have found many destined people who can make the "Tianxin Pearl" shine. Among these destined people, most are cultivators, and only a few are ordinary people.
The people from the Tianxin Sect used various methods to find these destined people and let them try to see if they could open the box, but the results after trying could be imagined.
Although the results of the attempts were all disappointing, the people of the Tianxin Sect still did not give up the search for the destined person. After all, this destined person was too important. If they could not find him, the Tianxin Sect would not only not produce immortal cultivators, but also would face difficulties.
A bigger crisis!
The Immortal Formation that hides Kirifaze Island is in urgent need of maintenance. If no one is found within a hundred years, the Immortal Formation will automatically disappear. What will happen to Kirifaze Island when it is exposed to the eyes of the world?
, people from the Tianxin sect really can’t imagine it.
In the Kunlun Sect, when Gu Zheng went to find Yang Zhenling to fulfill his promise, the 'Tianxin Pearl' placed on the head of Yang actually glowed! This made the overjoyed head Yang give Gu Zheng the jade plaque of a distinguished guest of Wufeng Island.
That’s what happened next.
After listening to Master Yang's story, Gu Zheng asked: "Have you told such important information to the so-called destined people?"
"Of course not! Apart from Master Gu, there are only two people in history who know about this matter." Master Yang said.
"Let's not talk about whether I am a destined person or not. Just because I know such a secret, isn't Master Yang afraid that I will have evil intentions? After all, what is in that box should be a very tempting treasure." Gu Zheng
Said again.
Head Yang shook his head: "Telling Head Gu this matter represents trust in Head Gu's character. I don't believe that Head Gu would do such a thing even after I have told the truth.
Something happened. Although my enthusiasm for Master Gu has a purpose, Master Gu will not lose anything because of it."
"You believe me so much? There must have been an investigation into me, right?"
"The investigation is certain. After all, the box is the secret of the Tianxin Sect. It is a matter of great importance, so we have to be cautious. Please forgive me for this, Master Gu. Moreover, we have also investigated the other two people who knew the secret in history.
, his character is the same as that of the ancient leader, he is very trustworthy."
"Master Yang, I'm still very curious! For those who don't know the secret, when you ask them to help, you should just ask them to try it and see if they can open a box, right?"
"Yes, that's true."
"For me, you can actually just ask me to help open a box just like you do to others, but why take the risk to tell me what is in the box?"
Faced with Gu Zheng's question, Head Yang smiled bitterly: "There is nothing we can do about it. Anyone who is told the truth by us is the most likely to open the box, and they are all very extraordinary, and they also have hidden secrets behind them.
Not inferior to those of the Tianxin Sect! The box that you need to open is different from ordinary boxes. After opening the box, you will definitely see the contents inside! In this case, I might as well tell you in advance and take a look at yours.
Your reaction is the final consideration of your character!"
"Then what do you think of my reaction? Does my character pass the test?"
"Forget it! There are so many doubts, and his character is not bad, so he is not a scum motivated by wealth."
"By the way, why are I and the other two people in history the most likely to open the box?"
"Because you made the light emitted by the 'Tianxin Pearl' reach a certain level, the jade slip obtained from the ruins does say that such a person is most likely to open the box."
"Let me see your 'Heaven's Heart Bead'."
Leader Yang took out the 'Tianxin Bead' the size of a glass ball from his arms, which was emitting a red light. However, after Gu Zheng took the 'Tianxin Bead', the originally weak red light became
It's even more dazzling.
"The so-called Tianxin Pearl is actually a higher-grade testing stone."
The voice of Qi Ling rang in Gu Zheng's mind.
Detection stones come in various shapes and are found in almost every sect in today's cultivation world. Their only purpose is to detect whether a person is qualified to become a cultivator.
"Low-level detection stones can only detect whether a person is qualified to become a cultivator. High-level detection stones like this can detect a person's growth potential! A person's growth potential needs to be very high before it can be opened.
The box represents inheritance!" Qi Ling smiled playfully.
"What, are you going to give me a reason to take certain things as your own?" Gu Zheng also smiled.
"Baby, who would have too much?" Qi Ling smiled even worse.
"A gentleman loves money in a proper way. Although I am not a gentleman, I don't want to be a villain in this matter. Unless they treat me as a fool and want to plot against me, or something else."
Gu Zheng was talking to the weapon spirit in his heart, while Master Yang looked at the 'Tianxin Pearl' that was even more shining in Gu Zheng's hand, and his breathing became rapid.
"Master Yang, this 'Tianxin Pearl' is a higher-grade testing stone, you don't know that, right?" Gu Zheng said.
"I know, I also know that the growth potential of someone who can make the 'Tianxin Pearl' shine so strongly will be terrifying!"
As Head Yang spoke, Guo Zi had a very responsible look on his face, as if he was thinking about how to deal with this matter.
"Think with reason and move with emotion. Although Master Yang has an ulterior motive for his enthusiasm for me, after talking about it, I don't think there is anything wrong with it."
"Furthermore, to be able to become the leader of a sect, I think Leader Yang is also a smart person. Now that things have developed to this point, I think it is an unexpected situation for both you and me.
"
"Therefore, I hope that Mr. Yang will not hide anything from me, especially about the box! I don't know how much you know about me, but I am not someone who is easy to fool, and I am not someone who is willing to be fooled.
A person who stands in the way of a gun!"
After Gu Zheng said something seriously, a smile appeared on his face again: "Master Yang, how do you think things can continue?"
Facing Gu Zheng's smiling face, Master Yang swallowed hard. Telling someone the truth was originally a risky matter, but the changes in Gu Zheng after he came into contact with the 'Tianxin Pearl' made Master Yang even more curious.
A feeling like luring a wolf into the house! Perhaps, using the word luring a wolf into the house is not appropriate to describe the feeling of Master Yang at this time. The most appropriate description should be like a fierce dragon crossing the river!
"As long as Master Gu helps open the box, the Tianxin Sect will pay Master Gu a very generous reward!" Master Yang said with difficulty.
"What is the proportion of this very generous reward compared to the contents of the box? Is it acceptable with a clear conscience?" Gu Zhengwan Taste.
Leader Yang's reaction has made Gu Zheng more and more certain that there should be another version of the truth!
"Well……"
Gu Zheng's sharp words made Head Yang groan slightly as if he had a stomach ache.
"Secretary Gu, there are indeed too many unexpected developments in the development of things. This matter is no longer something I can make alone. I need to discuss it with the elders in the sect to see how we can make it happen.
Solve it properly!" Leader Yang said with a bitter smile.
"Okay, don't keep me waiting too long. According to the original plan, I will only stay on Wufeng Island for five days at most." Gu Zheng said with a smile.
Leader Yang nodded, and when he left in a hurry, the enthusiasm when he first came was gone. He even forgot to say goodbye! One can imagine how complicated his mood is now.
"What, are you excited?"
After Master Yang left, Qi Ling spoke.
"If you say you're not moved, that's a lie!"
Gu Zheng smiled. This time when he came to Wufeng Island as a guest, he encountered such a thing, which was really unexpected.
The story that Master Yang told Gu Zheng, regardless of whether he concealed any information, can be understood from another perspective just from the obvious side.
After the "Tianxin Sect" left, they left behind a mysterious box that represented inheritance. There were very precious things in the box. In addition to the missing mental skills of the Tianxin Sect, there were also some things about the Immortal Formation outside the island.
However, this box of the 'Tianxin Sect' is not left to the current Tianxin Sect! After all, when the people of the 'Tianxin Sect' left, they did not let people continue the incense of the 'Tianxin Sect', but the people who continued the incense of the 'Tianxin Sect'
People are just a group of islanders who accidentally entered the ruins of the 'Tianxin Sect'.
Setting up a very high difficulty in opening things related to inheritance, the people of the 'Tianxin Sect' are looking for the inheritors in a different way! In other words, the box that Head Yang and the others opened, in a certain sense
It doesn't belong to them, they are just the discoverers and temporary owners, not the people that the Tianxin Sect really wants to entrust!
In the opinion of Headmaster Yang, Gu Zheng has a good character, and after understanding it rationally and being moved by emotion, Gu Zheng should not have the idea of hitting the box. But he was wrong. Although Gu Zheng was not a villain, he
He is not a gentleman either.
If the things in the box are not related to inheritance, then Gu Zheng will not cause trouble. He will do things according to the request of Head Yang after receiving certain benefits. But the things left in the box are related to inheritance, and Gu Zheng
If the box can be opened again, then given the original intention of the 'Tianxin Sect' to leave the box, he should be the owner of the box!
"What are you thinking now?" Qi Ling asked.
"Every idea must be based on my being able to open the box. But if I can't open the box, then it's all in vain." Gu Zheng said with a smile.
"The box requires people with high growth potential to open it. Even if I haven't seen it, I know what restrictions are placed on it! Don't worry, as long as you can see the box, I guarantee you will be able to open it.
!" Qi Ling said confidently.
"Since I will definitely be able to open the box, my current thoughts are still the same as those at the beginning. The Tianxin Sect should not plot against me or play tricks on this matter."
"After all, after all, I am a guest invited to Tianxin Island. This Tianxin Sect can be regarded as the true inheritance of the 'Tianxin Sect'. I don't want to be a villain who puts profit first."
"However, I am not a complete gentleman. If they want me to open the box, they must pay enough reward. This reward will not be a small amount, but it certainly cannot be compared with the overall value of the contents in the box!"
Gu Zheng said calmly.
Head Yang, who returned to the Tianxin Sect, immediately held a high-level secret meeting. Apart from him, the other three people present were the three elders of the Tianxin Sect.
After Master Yang told the three elders everything that happened in the tree house word for word, their expressions were very ugly.
"This ancient dispute is so abominable! What is this? Is this a threat?" the great elder said angrily.
"Blackmail? I don't think this is a simple blackmail. I think he is very cunning. He is very open about the reward. In fact, it is to cover up his real purpose of wanting to see the box! After all, he insists on the reward. We
Naturally, I feel that he is willing to give up his attention on packing boxes for the sake of high rewards." The second elder said coldly.
"Gu Zheng's character is not bad. This is the result of our previous investigation. There is no need to think of him as too bad or complicated. Maybe he is as simple as he said? You can give up the box if you want him to.
Just pay him enough!" The third elder thought for a while and said.
"Huh, this is just your guess. We can't take any risks in this matter." The great elder snorted coldly.
"Great Elder, there is no time for us to be cautious anymore! Gu Zheng is the person most likely to open the box in history. If we miss him, I don't need to say more about the seriousness of the matter? Even if there is a risk, we
You have to take risks." The third elder advised.
"Not necessarily. The jade slip only says that those who can make the 'Tianxin Pearl' burst into intense light have more possibilities to open the box, but it does not say that it is certain! Moreover, we are not just inviting an honored guest from Gu Zheng this time.
, you can also let Monk Wuwei give it a try first and then talk about it!" said the second elder.
"Monk Wuwei? What do I think? Why do I think this guy is unreliable? Let's not mention that the brightness of the 'Tianxin Pearl' he made is not as bright as that of Gu Zheng. Let him try to open the box. Should we tell him the truth in advance?"
The third elder's words made the other two elders fall silent. They were really troubled by this matter.
In addition to the safety measures required for the boxes left by the ‘Tianxin Sect’, there is actually a very simple but extremely troublesome preventive measure.
