Gu Zheng's unconventional play made Old Man Wu laugh strangely.
"Indeed, even if you don't ask, I still have to say some things!"
Old Man Wu paused, then told Gu Zheng what he had told Sun Cheng before, and then spoke again: "Now that you have passed the first spiritual palace, I am here to urge you to enter the second spiritual palace.
, I will tell you something when you come out alive from the second spiritual palace!"
"Is it my choice to enter the second spiritual palace?" Gu Zheng asked.
"Yes, the second spiritual palace is yours to choose, but it certainly cannot be the one you are in now."
After Old Man Wu finished speaking, Gu Zheng immediately walked out.
"Boy, don't you ask me anything else?"
Gu Zheng's reaction finally made Old Man Wu unhappy, and his voice transmission became cold.
"I asked you, can you tell me?" Gu Zheng stopped and sneered.
Old Man Wu frowned: "It depends on what you ask!"
"hehe."
Gu Zheng smiled contemptuously and continued walking outside the Immortal Palace.
"Are you really not asking it something?" Qi Ling couldn't help but ask.
"It depends on what I'm asking, and if you want to urge me to go to the second spiritual palace, then what I want to know will most likely be in a category that he can't answer. If that's the case, why should I let it happen?
?What's more, if it can get out of the second spiritual palace alive, it will also take the initiative to answer some questions. If it can't get out alive, the questions are in vain!" Gu Zheng said.
Looking at Gu Zheng's back, Old Man Wu smiled coldly and said: "Boy, even if you don't ask, I still want to tell you something. In this fairy palace just now, what happened between you and the palace master is already considered
You broke the rules, so you have to be careful with me in the future. I have the right to punish anyone who breaks the rules!"
Old Man Wu's words finally made Gu Zheng turn around. He looked at Old Man Wu and said contemptuously: "I was not sure about some things at first, but I have already seen something from my conversation with you! What are you so arrogant about?
You are just a slave of Xingxu Mountain. There are some things you can do and some things you cannot do. How can you pretend to cover the sky with just one hand?"
If Old Man Wu's face could change, he would definitely be green at this moment.
"Boy, you'd better not die in the second spiritual palace. If you become the master of the spiritual palace, I will definitely treat you well!" Old Man Wu laughed like a night owl.
Gu Zheng also smiled, still so contemptuous, and without saying anything he turned around and walked out of the Star Palace.
"How dare you offend it!"
Qi Ling let out a long breath. She was really worried about Gu Zheng's words and deeds just now.
"Originally I just listened to Sun Cheng's guess, but the conversation with him just now, plus the fact that he was angry at the end, really confirmed Sun Cheng's guess that it is just a slave of Xingxu Mountain! For a slave
, why should I be afraid of it? If I weren’t still unsure of Xingxu Mountain’s intentions and didn’t dare to take action against it easily, then I really couldn’t help but kill it! Maybe they are very powerful to Sun Cheng, but to me,
Killing it won’t be much harder than killing a dog! Once I’m sure that killing it on Xingxu Mountain won’t cause any accidents, then that’s when it will die. To avenge Sun Cheng, let’s start with them!”
Listening to Gu Zheng's hateful words, Qi Ling's eyes widened: "You can kill it easily! Could it be because of Tang Mo?"
The weapon spirit was shocked. Tang Mo had indeed easily swallowed the cloud spirit in the form of an air ball before, but in Old Man Wu's body, the weapon spirit did not feel the evil aura that met Tang Mo's ration standards.
"This guy doesn't have an evil aura on the surface, but it is indeed the spirit of cloud and mist. I feel the aura from it that is very similar to the spirit of cloud and mist in the shape of an air ball. Moreover, Tang Mo was not only excited about it, but also
I am equally excited about Sun Cheng, so I think even if there is danger in the next spiritual palace, it won’t be much of a danger to me!”
"Very good!"
Gu Zheng's words made Qi Ling excited. If things were really as Gu Zheng said, then in this little-known Xingxu Mountain, Gu Zheng's safety would be another guarantee.
"However, in the next star palace, I will try my best not to use Tang Mo, so as not to offend the enemy!" Gu Zheng said.
At the same time, Wu Yaya, who appeared in Sun Chengling Palace, appeared next to Old Man Wu.
"He must have discovered you just now. His eyes glanced at the place where you were hiding without leaving any trace." Old Man Wu said.
"I know." Wu Yaya said lightly.
"Have you discovered anything?" Old Man Wu asked.
"He did communicate with the spirit body in his body. I also completed a certain degree of perception of his body without disturbing him. The spirit body in his body has aroused my strong interest!" Wu Yaya
sneered.
"Then what are you going to do?" Old Man Wu asked again.
"At the moment, we can only let him go according to the rules. As for what to do, it depends on the future."
Wu Yaya paused for a moment, then frowned and said, "This person seems to have low cultivation, but in fact it should be very difficult to deal with. The fairy weapon in his hand gives me an extremely dangerous feeling."
"Now I just want this damn guy to die in the spiritual palace!" Old Man Wu said bitterly.
"Indeed, if he died in the spiritual palace, everything would be much easier. However, the strength of the palace lord in the spiritual palace can be traced. This is really helpless. This guy's first time
He chose the smallest spiritual palace. I am afraid that he will choose a smaller spiritual palace this time! Moreover, in this spiritual palace, he has almost no losses, so the master of the next spiritual palace should not be able to destroy him.
.”
Wu Yaya's guess was correct. Gu Zheng had the experience of Sun Chengling Palace. When choosing the second spiritual palace, he chose the smallest one among the available spiritual palaces.
After entering the Spiritual Palace, Gu Zheng immediately appeared in a special space.
The environment in the space is the same as when I met Sun Cheng, except that the master of this spiritual palace has completely become a slave of Xingxu Mountain. When he sees Gu Zheng, he immediately launches an attack. It is impossible for people to see that he has a spiritual palace.
Signs of wisdom.
Facing the mad attack from the Lord of the Ling Palace, Gu Zheng secretly made up his mind that Sun Cheng must not follow in his footsteps.
Although the master of the Ling Palace is also a spirit body and can also be used as food for Tang Mo, their attack method is not as weird as the spirit of cloud and mist. It is completely like using magic to attack. At the same time, it is more harmful to them than to hurt them.
Cloud spirits are easy to attack, as their bodies are not immune to most magical attacks.
The strength of the second Ling Palace Master is almost equivalent to that of Daluo Jinxian in the late stage. It is not that difficult for Gu Zheng to kill such a being. Many methods are not used. Gu Zheng only kills his own life.
True Fire' attached to the 'Crazy Crazy Sword' and eliminated the second spiritual palace master.
The special space disappeared and Gu Zheng appeared in the real spiritual palace. He immediately saw Old Man Wu and Wu Yaya.
"It's a real pity that you didn't die in this spiritual palace." Old Man Wu looked at Gu Zheng and said bitterly.
"I am also very helpless, I have let you down!" Gu Zheng sneered.
"You are just cunning and have discovered the rules of strength of the Lord of the Spirit Palace, otherwise you would not be so relaxed!" Old Man Wu said again.
"Hmm."
Not wanting to say anything more to Old Man Wu, Gu Zheng just smiled at him, then looked at Wu Yaya and said, "Do you want to tell me something?"
"According to the rules, after passing the second star palace, we do have to tell you something."
Wu Yaya's voice paused, and then she said: "Xingxu Mountain is born once every five hundred years. You can enter the mountain during the time when Xingxu Mountain is born. You are all people with great opportunities! But at the same time, you are also unfortunate people.
, because opportunity is usually accompanied by danger, so after entering the mountain, you will have to go through the test of two spiritual palaces. If you die in the test, your consciousness will become the master of the spiritual palace of Xingxu Mountain until you become
The star spirit in Xingxu Mountain! If you successfully pass the test of the two spiritual palaces, Xingxu Mountain will give you a chance to choose, whether to continue following the test or give up!"
"What will happen if you keep going? What will happen if you give up?" Gu Zheng asked.
"Continuing to go on means continuing to complete the test, knowing more things, and getting more benefits. If you choose to go on, then I will answer some questions for you, and the scope will be limited to the things I just said. If
If you choose to give up, Xingxu Mountain will give you a gift, giving you the opportunity to practice on Xingxu Mountain for a year, and then let you leave Xingxu Mountain. However, if you choose to give up, the most you can do is stay on Xingxu Mountain.
After one year, there will be no chance to enter Xingxu Mountain again!"
Wu Yaya's voice paused, and then she said seriously: "Now tell me your choice!"
"I choose to continue!"
Gu Zheng did not hesitate. His initial curiosity about the dangerous place of Xingxu Mountain did not diminish but increased. What's more, Sun Cheng was still waiting for his rescue, and the whereabouts of Xiong San and Fairy Feiyu were still unknown.
"very good!"
Gu Zheng did not choose to give up, which made Wu Yaya laugh.
"I can answer some of your questions now, but you already know the limited range of things. However, since you have chosen to continue, you will also know more things as you continue." Wu Yaya said.
.
Wu Yaya didn't have much to say before. Within such restrictions, Gu Zheng could only ask two things.
"What is a star spirit?" Gu Zheng asked.
"Star spirits are a kind of spirit body. Their predecessors were the masters of the Star Palace, those cultivators who died on Xingxu Mountain." Wu Yaya said.
"Are the stars powerful? How many are there?" Gu Zheng asked again.
"Awesome, there are a lot of them!"
Despite the answer, Wu Yaya also frowned: "You don't need to ask anymore about the star spirits. If you continue to ask, it will be something you are not qualified to know."
"What is the ultimate reward for following the test?" Gu Zheng asked again.
"Become the master of Xingxu Mountain."
Wu Yaya answered, but her expression looked disdainful, as if she had heard an idiot talk.
"Okay, I've asked all the things that need to be asked, let's accept the next test!"
Following Old Man Wu's impatient voice, Gu Zheng felt his vision change, and the subsequent feeling was the same as being forcibly taken into Xingxu Mountain. Gu Zheng appeared in a new environment.
This is still a mountain, and there are still several fairy palaces on it. The fairy palace facing Guzheng is still the largest among the fairy palaces on the mountain.
Wu Yaya, who appeared with Gu Zheng, said: "These immortal palaces are not called spiritual palaces, they are called 'preaching palaces'. There are traces of the Tao in every immortal palace. You choose an immortal palace to enter, and then understand the Tao in it."
If you can realize the Tao through the traces of the Tao, then you have completed the test! If you do not realize the Tao, it will naturally mean that the test has failed! As for the completion of the test and the failure of the test, what do the two results mean respectively? This is waiting for you to test
Let’s talk after it’s over! Within one stick of incense, you can choose to enter a missionary palace!”
After Wu Yaya said that, she disappeared out of thin air, and Gu Zheng also walked towards the missionary palace closest to him.
Although he was heading towards the Missionary Palace, which was the closest to him, Gu Zheng had no intention of entering. Anyway, he could look around and get a feel for it if he had time to burn incense.
There are nine missionary palaces on the top of the mountain. Gu Zheng spent half a stick of incense looking at all nine missionary palaces.
"Do you feel anything special?" Qi Ling asked.
"There's no special feeling." Gu Zheng said.
"Then which missionary palace are you planning to enter?" Qi Ling asked again.
"The rule of the spiritual palace is that the bigger the palace, the stronger the palace owner will be. If we follow this rule, the larger the preaching palace, the less simple the traces of Tao in it will be! However, the more complex the
The traces of the Tao will be more difficult to comprehend, which is a bit confusing!" Gu Zheng shook his head.
"Anyway, enlightenment is very mysterious, and there is no certainty at all. Since you don't have any special feelings about these preaching palaces outside, then choose the largest one! At least as you said, this is the largest one.
In the preaching palace, the traces of the Tao should be the most complicated!" Qi Ling said.
"Okay, then let's go to the largest missionary palace!"
Gu Zheng looked relaxed and smiled, but in fact, he was not relaxed at all.
Although this test is about enlightenment, which sounds very good, enlightenment has always been a mysterious thing, and the traces of the Tao are just a little trace of the Tao! Just like Gu Zheng has cooked immortal ingredients so many times, but
The number of times you can truly grasp the traces of the Tao is only once! And being able to grasp it even once can be considered very lucky.
Now on Xingxu Mountain, Gu Zheng is about to enter the Preaching Palace to challenge the traces of comprehending the Tao. If it were not forced by the situation and he had no choice, he himself would feel that this is a losing situation! However, it is precisely because of the situation that he is forced to do so.
He can only believe that he will win, but not that he will lose, because there is no way out!
In front of the largest missionary palace, Gu Zheng took a deep breath, then opened the door and entered.
Unlike in the Spiritual Palace, where you first appear in a special space when you step into it, this is just the inside of the palace.
Entering Guzheng Palace, your eyes are immediately attracted by a statue in the palace, because this statue is the only decoration in the palace.
The statue is of a very beautiful woman wearing a five-color fairy dress, holding a flute in both hands, with her head slightly lowered as if she was concentrating on playing.
"Lexian!"
Qi Ling's exclamation sounded in Gu Zheng's mind, and Gu Zheng's eyes widened in response to her exclamation.
"Le Xian? Why is there a statue of Le Xian here?"
Gu Zheng felt his head buzzing, because Lexian was one of the ten great saints, and the Xianyin Pavilion in the immortal world, which allowed many immortal cultivators to attain enlightenment, was founded by Lexian's chief disciple.
"So far, there are two types of fairy palaces we have seen on Xingxu Mountain. One is the spiritual palace, and the other is the preaching palace. In my opinion, whether there are statues left in the spiritual palace, or whether there are preaching
There are statues left in the palace, so the real person must have been to Xingxu Mountain!" Qi Ling said.
"I have been to Xingxu Mountain and left a statue in the Mission Palace. I am still one of the top ten holy immortals. Xingxu Mountain is still ownerless. Thinking about it makes people curious!"
After Gu Zheng finished speaking, his expression immediately became focused, because a special pattern appeared on the statue of Le Xian.
Under normal circumstances, traces of Tao are natural things, just like the traces of Tao in fairy ingredients. These are things that are difficult to produce by humans.
However, Lexian is a holy immortal, and Xingxu Mountain is so different. It is not too unbelievable that traces of Tao appear on the statue of Lexian.
The traces of the Tao have appeared, and Gu Zheng must understand it with his heart. This will determine whether his test can be successfully completed.
Gu Zheng concentrated, and Qi Ling's heart was tangled together. He didn't show too much worry before, because he didn't want Gu Zheng to be stressed because of it, but understanding the traces of Tao is really not a simple matter.
What a thing! Qi Ling really can't imagine what would happen if Gu Zheng didn't understand...
at the same time.
Somewhere in Xingxu Mountain, Old Man Wu asked Wu Yaya: "Do you think that guy can understand something?"
"We don't know things for a long time, but in the tens of thousands of years that we know, so many people have come to Xingxu Mountain, but has anyone understood the traces of Tao? It is just a trace, and the chance of understanding is limited.
It's only once, I don't think he will be so lucky to realize it." Wu Yaya said.
"Unfortunately, he has passed the first two tests. Even if he fails to comprehend the traces of the Tao, his life will not be in danger for the time being."
The look of Old Man Wu gritting his teeth made Wu Yaya, who had always had a plain expression, couldn't help but laugh: "You really want him to die so much? I want to get the spirit body in him, but I'm not as eager as you are!"
"I'm different from you, you've always been calm!"
Old Man Wu paused for a moment, then continued: "I wish he would die soon. From the time I opened my spirit to now, I have never been so angry by someone. It makes me so angry just thinking about it!"
"Although even if he fails to understand, his life will not be in danger for the time being, but if he fails to understand, he will not be different. Xingxu Mountain will not pay too much attention to him. Then you can also use some revenge methods against him.
Use it once and relieve your qi first before talking about it!"
Wu Yaya and Old Man Wu both felt that Gu Zheng couldn't understand, but things happened to develop in a direction they didn't want.
In Gu Zheng's eyes, the traces of Tao spun quickly, and an increasingly familiar feeling emerged!
