Chapter 17 In a world where the jungle preys on the jungle, only swords can be used against the enemy
"Master Lu, the matter has been settled."
In a deserted place, Zhao Zhi said to Lu Chen with a flattering look.
"real?"
Lu Chen looked ecstatic when he heard this.
"Gu Yusheng is really dead?"
"He hasn't practiced swordplay in the peach blossom forest for three days." Zhao Zhi rubbed his hands, "That monster has ancient bloodline. Not only is it physically powerful, it also has wisdom far beyond other monsters. In order to make it go berserk, I
But I spent a lot of money to get the medicinal powder from a beast-controlling elder in Tianling Peak, and you promised me..."
Lu Chen frowned and said: "I want to see people alive, and I want to see a corpse when I die. These days, I still can't get rid of the influence of the oath of heaven. Do you think that bitch is still alive?"
"This... may be trivial." Zhao Zhi squinted his eyes, "Mr. Lu, you won't regret it, right?"
"It's not that you regret it. Go there yourself and see if he is really dead." When Lu Chen said this, he suddenly thought of something, "What did you just say? That monster has ancient bloodline? What is it?
Monster?"
Zhao Zhi's eyes darted around and he said, "It's a ferocious monster that's hard to tame. I'll go to the peach blossom forest to see if that kid is dead."
After saying that, Zhao Zhi turned around and left with a cold look on his lips. He had already targeted that snow ape. Unfortunately, he was not talented enough and had not yet mastered the skills of controlling beasts. To take a step back, if
If he can't get it, he will use this important information to cling to the ninth prince of the Xuanlong Dynasty.
"This guy..."
There was also a trace of doubt in Lu Chen's eyes, but to him, Gu Yusheng's life and death was what he cared about the most.
In the cold cave behind the waterfall.
Gu Yusheng was refining the silver Yuan Fei Qi, turning it into gold bit by bit.
In the past three days, he did not practice swordsmanship, but focused on refining the energy of the Yuan Fei and improving his level.
Once all the silver Yuan Fei Qi is converted into gold, he plans to use the technique to condense the Yuan Fei and officially enter the Yuan Fei realm.
According to the estimate of taking care of the rest of my life, it will take at most three to five days to succeed.
At this moment, the snow monkey who was guarding outside came in quietly, stepping on the strong wind, appeared in front of Gu Yusheng, and pointed outside.
"Is it finally here?"
Gu Yusheng breathed out lightly, and all the energy of Yuan Fei in his body was hidden in his Dantian. He held a wooden sword and quietly walked out of the cold cave.
A few dozen feet away, there was a figure hiding behind a stone, sneaking around.
"Is it him?"
There was a hint of coldness in Gu Yusheng's eyes. This person was Lu Zhan's registered disciple. On the other side of the entrance, he actually coveted the money given to new disciples by the sect. Gu Yusheng exposed his little tricks and was resented by the other party.
Gu Yusheng didn't find it strange that the other party tried to harm him.
"Opening the Pulse Realm?"
Gu Yusheng frowned.
Although he has not entered the Yuan Fei Realm now, his six senses are sharp and he can detect the aura on Zhao Zhi's body. This person's frame is too big, but he is rickety and thin. It should be that something went wrong while practicing in the Kaimai Realm.
Caused him to do this.
As a disciple of the last Qingyun Sect who was recruited five years ago, the talent in the Pulse Opening Realm is not very good, but it is not bad either. After all, in five years, many people have not even condensed their Yuan Fei.
"This man is cunning. If I don't show up, he will definitely slip away. If I show up, I will most likely fight him head-on."
Gu Yusheng's eyes flashed, and his blood flowed with excitement unknowingly.
"Maybe I can fight him!"
With such a thought in his mind, Gu Yusheng's fists clenched involuntarily. He glanced at the peach tree on the edge of the cliff, and then at the snow ape next to him.
Several plans that had been well planned for a long time were replayed in his mind, and he even thought of several plans to murder in the dark, but now he just wanted to prove himself with the sword.
"You hide over there."
Gu Yusheng asked Snow Monkey not to show up yet and hide behind the waterfall.
Gu Yusheng took advantage of the waves of the waterfall and walked step by step along the stream towards the canyon.
"Come out." Gu Yusheng stopped and looked at the stone in front of him.
"You know me?"
Zhao Zhi came out from behind the stone somewhat unexpectedly. His eyes subconsciously looked at the mouth of the canyon to make sure there were no other sects behind him. He then raised the corner of his mouth and walked towards Gu Yusheng step by step, with a rather playful look on his face.
"Gu Yusheng, you are very smart. Unfortunately, smart people generally do not live long. I am just curious, how did you escape that disaster?"
Gu Yusheng did not answer, but slowly pulled out the wooden sword from his waist, pointed it at Zhao Zhi, and asked calmly: "Why do you want to harm me? Is it because of that ingot of silver? Is my life really so insignificant?"
Zhao Zhi was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Gu Yusheng, in this world, the strong live and the weak die. This is an eternal truth. Monsters will not stop killing you just because you are underage. Likewise, as long as there are people
If I pay enough to take your life, it's worth it. Don't you think it's funny that you ask me this?"
Gu Yusheng raised his sword three more points and said, "Then I won't feel any guilt if I kill you."
The words fell.
Gu Yusheng stabbed Zhao Zhi with the wooden sword in his hand.
His movements were just like stabbing a sword at a peach blossom tree as usual, without any bells and whistles, and his forward speed was not fast.
In Zhao Zhi's eyes, this sword was so ordinary.
He also once laughed at Gu Yusheng from a high place for doing such useless things every day.
A little guy who couldn't even stab a peach blossom, now dared to swing a sword at him.
In Zhao Zhi's view.
Just like an ant struggling hard before death.
Zhao Zhi even raised his chin and watched Yu Sheng thrust his sword at him. Like a cat playing with a mouse, he wanted to make the young man in front of him despair and let him die silently in this uncared-for place.
The wooden sword is getting closer and closer.
The mocking smile on the corner of Zhao Zhi's mouth grew stronger and stronger.
Three meters.
Two meters.
Within easy reach.
Zhao Zhi's heart suddenly tightened. It was not because he captured the sword energy hidden in Gu Yusheng's sword, but because of his intuition as a monk in the Pulse Opening Realm.
What he condensed was the fourth-grade Yuan Fei!
There is only one step left to enter the third level.
He was also a genius.
Unfortunately, I was too eager for quick success and made mistakes when opening the pulse.
There is danger!
Death is approaching.
Zhao Zhi's expression froze, and he instinctively dodged to the side. He was arrogant, so he didn't bother to use weapons to resist.
In his pupils, Gu Yusheng's sword seemed to have suddenly become dozens of times faster, and the ray of sword light blooming from the tip of the sword was like a sudden burst of light in the dark night.
This sword came suddenly like a storm.
Zhao Zhi watched helplessly as the sword pierced into his abdomen. Although he could barely avoid the critical point in his heart, the terrifying sword energy contained in the wooden sword shook his internal organs like a torment.
Kick, kick, kick!
Zhao Zhi's body flew backwards.
It hit a stone so hard that several cracks appeared on the stone.
The remaining sword energy bloomed, splashing sparks on the stone.
"puff!"
Zhao Zhi stiffened his body and his eyes widened. He was also in the Pulse Opening state, but he was not as strong as Snow Monkey. There was a fine sword cut in his abdomen, and blood seeped out bit by bit.
"you!"
Zhao Zhi couldn't lift it up in one breath, and his heart felt like thousands of needles pricking him.
He looked down at the wound, with a look of horror in his eyes. He had just saved his life by instinct, but it would take at least several years, or even longer, to be completely cured. Such a delay would mean that his path to spiritual practice would be cut off from now on.
Thinking of this, Zhao Zhi's face suddenly became distorted. He stared at Gu Yusheng in front of him, with no trace of contempt in his eyes, and a monstrous murderous intention emerged.
"You bitch, you're looking for death."
Zhao Zhi held the wound with one hand, and pressed the palm of the other hand on the stone. He used the stone to support his body. His bones made a crackling sound. With a hiss, a burst of energy emanated from his body. His clothes were shattered inch by inch, revealing his skinny body.
On his body, eight veins were seen protruding from his limbs and chest like earthworms, converging on the sword wound, trying to heal the wound. The veins were so clear that they could be seen with the naked eye.
"Eighth Stage of Opening Pulse Realm!"
Gu Yusheng's expression was slightly stunned, and a look of solemnity appeared in his eyes. Although he vaguely sensed that the skinny man in front of him was still in the pulse opening state, he did not expect that he had already opened the eight meridians of his body. As long as the nine meridians were opened, he could enter.
In the Bone Forging Realm, at that time, ordinary swords could hardly hurt the physical body.
"I'm going to kill you!"
Zhao Zhi saw Gu Yusheng's expression, his eyes gradually became bloodshot, and there was deep hatred in the depths of his pupils. In order to practice, in the past few years, he not only exhausted all the resources given by the sect, but also used various means to obtain
He had access to many resources and tried to improve his strength at all costs. However, a year ago, in order not to be sent out by the sect to slay demons, he used secret techniques to forcibly hide his strength. He failed to control the vitality of heaven and earth in his meridians.
To do this, a lot of blood was wasted.
Originally, as long as he practiced for a while and entered the ninth level of the Pulse Opening Realm, he would have a chance to become a Bone Forging Realm monk, but unexpectedly, he capsized in the gutter.
"Hehehe, I only have one bloodline to make me invulnerable, but unexpectedly, I was seriously injured by your sword. I will cut you into pieces!"
Zhao Zhi opened up the meridians and temporarily suppressed the sword injury. He raised his palms and slapped Gu Yusheng.
A powerful palm wind came towards my face.
There is also a strange cold force mixed in the palm wind.
呲呲呲.
There seemed to be ice condensing in the air.
Gu Yusheng thrust out his sword. Although the sword energy withstood most of the wind from his palm, a layer of cold frost clung to the wooden sword in his hand.
A bone-chilling chill came from the wooden sword, and Gu Yusheng felt his arms were numb and about to lose consciousness.
Fortunately, Gu Yusheng has been practicing in the cold cave for the past three days. Faced with this cold and weird palm technique, he did not panic too much. He absorbed the energy of heaven and earth from the outside into his body just like he usually condenses the energy of heaven and earth.
The energy of Yuan Fei is secretly injected into the wooden sword.
The frost on his arms quickly faded away, and even the frost on the wooden sword turned into pieces of ice and fell off.
Gu Yusheng shook his wooden sword, turned from defense to offense, and stabbed out again.
"What!"
Zhao Zhi looked in disbelief. He couldn't figure out how Gu Yusheng, who had not yet condensed the Yuan Fei, resisted the 'Yin-Eclipsing Palm' he just struck.
You must know that in the sect competition two years ago, he achieved a good ranking by relying on this palm technique that is difficult for ordinary people to master.
What made Zhao Zhi even more frightened was that the sword stabbed by Gu Yusheng right before his eyes made his hair stand on end again.
He thought that Gu Yusheng's sword strike just now was because he was careless and unprepared.
