Liu Bao hurriedly stepped forward and bowed deeply: "Replying to Senior Brother Gu, I am also willing to help Senior Brother Gu guard the ice cave. Hey, I have informed Master and got Master's permission. I think I will be responsible for taking care of the ice cave with Junior Brother Sun together every day.
The disciples who go in and out of the cave, with the two of us working together, will definitely manage the entrance of the ice cave in an orderly manner, allowing Senior Brother Gu to manage it."
Sun Erhu kept nodding and said: "Senior Brother Li is absolutely right! With the two of us in charge, Senior Brother Gu can rest easy!"
Gu Qing was very confident about his servant Liu Bao. With Liu Bao monitoring him, Sun Erhu could indeed make full use of his talents.
After listening to the two people's requests, Gu Qing nodded and said: "Okay! You two will be responsible for taking care of the entrance to the ice cave. Liu Bao, this is the forbidden jade slip of the ice cave! You are responsible for opening the forbidden entrance of the cave and choosing to enter the cave.
Disciple Sun Erhu, you are responsible for assisting Liu Bao. Ask them to collect the spiritual objects obtained through training in the ice cave. It may be 20% or 10%. For rare spiritual objects, especially exotic flowers and rare herbs, ask them to collect them.
Leave it to me after that, and as for other ordinary things, you can take care of it yourself."
The two of them were overjoyed and bowed to accept the promise.
Then Gu Qing ordered Sun Erhu to open two stone rooms on the side of the ice cave entrance. He called Liu Baolai and secretly used his spiritual consciousness to send messages to ask Zhou Tian about the old thief.
Liu Bao chuckled and sent a message to his master: "After Zhou Tian was warned by the elder of Xianmen Ningdan, he will never dare to provoke his master again! Master, just don't worry."
Gu Qing nodded and said calmly: "That's good! You and Sun Erhu do a good job. Once you receive any exotic flowers and herbs, keep them for me and I will come to pick them up. If there is nothing important, don't come to Bing Mansion.
Excuse me, do you understand?"
"Understood! I will obey the master's orders in everything I do! If I retire, I won't disturb the master's Qing Dynasty."
Liu Bao bowed, said goodbye to his master, and excitedly took the forbidden jade slip to guard the entrance of the ice cave.
After Gu Qing settled them, he turned back to Bing Mansion, set up a secret formation in front of the mansion, sat cross-legged and meditated, and continued to practice the Beast Control Art.
The jade slips of the Beast Control Technique were left to him by Elder Liu of the Immortal Sect. If he could learn this type of technique, he could summon a spiritual beast that was a level higher than his own. This was related to Gu Qing's summoning of third-level ferrets and third-level ferrets.
To become a purple ice rock beast, Gu Qing had to work hard and practice hard.
In addition, Gu Qing also had the secret technique of the Five Elements Sect, the intermediate spiritual eye technique, which he had obtained from the elite disciple of the Five Elements Sect, Feng Lie.
The secret technique of intermediate golden light shield and the wind group attack technique, Fenjuanwanyun, both need to be practiced carefully. So Gu Qing only retreated in Bing Mansion all day long and did not care about the outside world.
Chen Hu concentrated on practicing in seclusion, thinking of breaking through to the second level of Anding, but could not get out of seclusion for several days. Even he was like this, Liu Sheng, Su Xin and Ziyun, not to mention, were all killed by the fifth level of Gu Qing Anding.
Stimulated by his cultivation, he was also practicing in seclusion, making the entire Bing Mansion under the ice hill completely silent.
Only Liu Bao and Sun Erhu who were at the entrance of the ice cave worked diligently to let twenty sect disciples into the ice cave to practice every day, and then asked them for benefits when they came out.
With the methods of the two of them, it was almost effortless to ask for it. What's more, these disciples who went into the cave to experience did not dare to offend the two of them, and wished they could give them more of the spiritual things they hunted and picked. Because they knew very well that
The next time you go into the cave, you will have to worry about the two of them. Once you offend one of them, it will be even more difficult for you to go into the cave next time.
On this day, Gu Qing continued to practice the newly learned Taoist mid-level golden light shield in the cave, and became more and more proficient. For this reason, he consumed a lot of golden dew spirit wine to replenish his mana.
By the time he was practicing the wind-type group attack technique called Fengjuanyun, it was obvious that he couldn't perform this technique in the small space in the cave, so he had to go outside to try it out.
Gu Qing removed the forbidden dark formation at the entrance of the cave and left the Ice Mansion. As soon as he came out, he immediately alerted Sun Erhu and Liu Bao who were counting the spiritual stones and spiritual grass mines at the entrance of the ice cave.
The two people quickly stopped what they were doing and quickly stepped forward to salute Gu Qing.
Sun Erhu had a flattering look on his face and said with a smile: "Reporting to Senior Brother Gu, I have gained a lot these days! I was assigned dozens of monster skins, beasts and souls, and even some were dug by disciples who went into the ice cave to practice.
When he came out of the Ice Spirit Mine, he also quietly divided some among us, and we also have quite a few spirit stones, in a few days we would have thousands of spirit stones!"
Liu Bao also reported: "Last time, Senior Brother Ye Yong went back and mentioned to the sect leader that the formation flags and formations in the ice cave needed spirit stones to maintain. The sect specially allocated a sum of spirit stones, and all the younger brothers piled them up.
The formation flag's corners are up, so I don't dare to use it."
Gu Qing nodded casually: "Show me all the harvest you have asked for in the past few days. How many of the exotic flowers and herbs I ordered have been received?"
"Yes!" Liu Bao responded quickly: "They are all here with me. I have specially taken care of the senior brothers who went into the cave to practice and asked them to pay attention to picking them. Hey, there are a total of more than twenty kinds of spiritual herbs, among which ice is the most important.
There are mostly spiritual grasses, enough to fill two storage bags!"
Liu Bao and Sun Erhu did not dare to hide their secrets, so they opened their storage bags and asked Gu Qing to inspect them.
Gu Qing saw that there was nothing rare about those monster materials, spiritual mines, spiritual stones and other items, so he glanced at them. When he saw the two storage bags filled with spiritual herbs presented by Liu Bao, he used his spiritual consciousness to carefully examine them.
Look, there is a smile on the corner of the mouth.
Gu Qing nodded and said with a smile: "Yeah! Yes, these spiritual grasses and flowers belong to me. The remaining spiritual stones, beasts and souls and other items should be divided between the two of you, and work hard! It will be your benefit!"
Liu Bao and Sun Erhu were overjoyed and excited. They thanked Senior Brother Gu repeatedly.
Gu Qing suddenly remembered something, looked outside the ice cave, and asked, "Has anyone from the Tiandan Sect sent someone recently?"
"No, they are all inner and even outer disciples of our Medicine Sect, mining spiritual minerals in the winding corridors and the first floor of the cave. Hehe, the two of us stayed at the entrance of the ice cave to serve as deacons thanks to Senior Brother Gu.
, almost all the remaining inner disciples have the task of mining the Ice Spirit Mine every month, including several of Senior Brother Gu’s friends.”
Gu Qing was slightly startled. Sure enough, he saw the Bing Mansion under the ice hill. Two of the cave doors were ajar. Gu Qing was secretly glad that he had the privileges of the sect. He was exempted from all sect tasks and was happy and relaxed.
comfortable.
In the end, Gu Qing patted the two of them on the shoulders, tried hard, and ordered Liu Bao to activate the formation at the entrance of the ice cave, and then walked directly out of the ice cave and floated away.
Sun Erhu and Liu Bao didn't dare to ask any more questions, so they respectfully sent Brother Gu away and began to divide the monster materials and the Ice Spirit Mine.
Gu Qing's current level of cultivation on the fifth level of Anding is not enough to fight against the monsters in the ice cave. Even if there are monsters such as second-level snow wolves in the ice cave, they are much more ferocious than those on the first level of the cave, and
They often come in groups. It is simply a thankless task for Gu Qing to deal with them alone.
That's why Gu Qing decided to go to the first floor of the cave to find a secluded place to practice wind group attack skills.
After Gu Qing came out of the ice cave, he came to the dark forest on the first floor of the cave. Although it was relatively quiet here, except for the monks who went into the ice cave to practice, there were almost no other disciples here. Unfortunately, the monsters here were almost extinct.
, Gu Qing couldn't find anyone to test his Taoist skills on, so he simply drove the fire eagle and flew all the way south.
The first floor of the cave has a radius of dozens of miles. Gu Qing has walked through it roughly, but there are still many places he has never been to, so he drove the fire sculpture and looked at the map and jade slips while paying attention to the actual conditions of the places he passed.
terrain.
Occasionally, when I meet fellow disciples who are mining or training, they all look at Senior Brother Gu on the fire sculpture with envy and admiration, and greet him from a distance:
"Hello, Senior Brother Gu!"
"Senior Brother Gu, long time no see!"
Gu Qing nodded and smiled in response. Since he took charge of the ice cave, his status in the sect has skyrocketed. Even the senior brothers and sisters who usually didn't bother to say hello to him are now so enthusiastic! I wish I could spend more time with Gu Qing.
Say a few words and establish friendship.
Not long after, Gu Qing got tired of greeting his fellow disciples and was used to seeing how hypocritical and unnatural the enthusiastic expressions of these senior brothers and sisters were. Gu Qing asked them for a copy of the drawings by the disciples.
I found a new map and jade slip on the first floor of the cave, so I simply drove the fire eagle and flew to uninhabited places along the way, and finally arrived at a remote forest.
"This is the gathering place for the second-level rotten wood demons, which is perfect for me to practice Fengjuanwanyun! After many days of retreat and study, I have mastered the beast control art, the intermediate golden light shield and the intermediate spiritual eye art. I might as well release the third-level ferrets and
The purple ice rock beasts are used as wind watchers and guardians respectively."
Thinking of this, Gu Qing patted the spirit beast bag and summoned a third-level ferret and a purple ice rock beast. Gu Qing sent a spiritual message to the ferret and ordered it to wander outside the wild forest. Once a monk approaches, he will report the news at any time.
And let the purple snowman-like purple ice rock beast stay by his side, and together he seeks out the bad luck of the second-order rotten wood demon.
The purple ice rock beast threw ice cubes, causing the second-level rotten wood demons near the wilderness to flee.
Gu Qing is very satisfied with its attack power. This third-level mutant ice rock beast seems to only know this strange attack method. Its power is equivalent to the single-body ice Taoist magic of the late Anding monks plus the powerful bombardment of ice cubes.
, powerful lethality.
At the same time, Gu Qing was surprised to find that the ice consumed by it in each attack was taken from itself, so as the purple ice rock beast continued to attack, the purple snowman's body was also constantly shrinking.
At the beginning, Gu Qing followed the method recorded in the Demonic Beast Illustrated Book and directly fed the purple ice rock beast with ice spirit minerals and ice spirit stones. Its body would slowly increase in size and gradually grow like a snowman.
Later, Gu Qing simply planted a large amount of the best ice spiritual grass in the spiritual field of the white jade gourd in the belly of the golden ant to feed the ice rock beast. These rich ice spiritual energy entered the body, making the purple ice rock beast recover and grow faster.
For a few minutes, as long as there are enough top-grade ice spiritual grasses, the purple ice rock beast can almost continuously produce ice cubes.
With this powerful ice rock beast by his side, it is equivalent to having an assistant with the strength of a late-stage Anding monk. Gu Qing is not afraid even if he goes deep into the gathering place of second-order monsters and faces several second-order dead wood monsters at the same time.
