Chapter 712: Watching chess without saying a word is not a gentleman, one move breaks the nine heave
Gu Xiu put these spiritual techniques aside for the time being and focused more on investigating the other party's records about Zifu. As a result, he found that Mei Huaping had almost nothing to hide.
and.
There is indeed no record here that the power of the Purple Mansion can be borrowed.
"Is it really true that I can only sever my own soul and feed the Purple Palace with my body?" Gu Xiu frowned, still a little skeptical.
According to what is said here.
As long as he cuts off his own soul now, he will be able to find an opportunity to break through to the God Transformation Realm immediately, and even complete his realm breakthrough in an instant.
only……
Once the soul is cut off, it is really cut off and it still needs to be fed to the Purple Palace. Unless there is a real opportunity, it is absolutely impossible to return.
And this is just the beginning.
After all, breaking through to the Spirit Transformation Realm does not mean the end. If you want to improve, you still need to continue practicing.
There are seven realms of spiritual transformation.
According to Gu Xiu's previous experience, after the Nascent Soul becomes a Spirit, a soul tower that is different for each person will be formed in the sea of consciousness at the moment of breaking through the Spirit, and then seven soul lamps will appear in the soul tower. If one wants to continue practicing in the Spirit Transformation stage, he needs to ignite these seven soul lamps from bottom to top.
Every time you light a soul lamp, you break through a small realm.
According to this half volume of the Purple Mansion Divine Treasure, once you start to cut off your own soul, every time you light a soul lamp, you will also need to cut off your own soul. This is simply a road of no return.
This matter.
A careful decision is needed.
and……
Gu Xiu also found a sentence in this half-volume of the Purple Mansion Divine Treasure:
"Zifu is the master, and Su Shen is the servant. If you worship sincerely, you can become a god!"
These words.
Gu Xiu strongly disagreed.
In his opinion, when practicing, cultivators should follow their hearts. There is no such thing as being a devout slave. If they really worship a purple palace as their master, even if they achieve something in the future.
That kind of people……
Is he worthy of being called a god?
And, there is another problem.
Gu Xiu was lost in thought as he took a look at the Purple Palace in his sea of consciousness. He had a vague feeling that the Purple Palace had no ill will towards him, nor did it have any intention of becoming his master or having him serve it sincerely as a slave.
If I really offer sacrifices.
Instead, he had a feeling of being the opposite of Tiangang.
but……
If this is wrong, then how can one break through to the state of transformation?
"I can help you get the other half of the Purple Mansion Divine Treasure!" But at this moment, Mei Huaping spoke again, with hope in her eyes.
"You?" Gu Xiu questioned.
"I can do it!" Mei Huaping said hurriedly, "The Purple Mansion Divine Treasure is the most precious treasure of our Suling Palace. It is also rumored that it contains even more powerful soul techniques. Even if you don't have enough strength, it will be useless even if you read it. But I have now reached the peak of the Spiritual Transformation Realm and can break through to the Void Refinement Realm at any time. As long as I break through and advance, as my master, as long as I can borrow the other half of the Purple Mansion Divine Treasure, my master will definitely not refuse!"
"Your master?" Gu Xiu raised his eyebrows and looked at the other person with a smile.
"Yes, my Master!"
Mei Huaping naturally understood that the other party had seen through her little thoughts, but she still said, "My master is Zhong Hongzhuo, the Palace Master of Suling Palace. I am the Palace Master's personal disciple, and my master has taken the best care of me. If I died outside and my soul lamp was extinguished, my master would be the first to notice and help me avenge myself."
“Of course. If I can break through to the Void Refinement Stage, even if I have just set foot there, I will be able to see the Purple Mansion Divine Treasure in the sect firsthand thanks to my status as the Palace Master’s personal disciple.”
This was said sincerely, but even a fool could see it.
He was telling Gu Xiu.
I am the Palace Master's direct disciple. If anything happens to me, my master will immediately notice it and come to help me get revenge.
He is a supreme being, and a supreme being who is proficient in the way of spirit and soul!
It's just a pity...
Gu Xiu did not express anything about his words, but just said:
"Second question."
"Who are the guards at Beimen Pass now? Why are they ignoring what you did there?"
"Well..." Zhong Hongzhuo hesitated, his eyes evasive. "The general guarding the North Gate is away, and the current deputy general has received benefits, so he turned a blind eye to what's happening inside the pass..."
"With the general absent, the deputy general is in charge?" Gu Xiu raised an eyebrow. "If I remember correctly, Tian Ce Prefecture's military discipline is extremely strict. They can't just leave the North Gate unattended. Even if the general guarding the gate really has something wrong, shouldn't Ye Wentian, the general of the North Prefecture, be here to guard the city?"
Gu Xiu was quite familiar with the military discipline of Tiance Mansion.
Tiance Prefecture has four prefectures and eight passes, with permanent generals guarding the passes. They are all natural fortresses of various types. Military discipline requires that at any time, the commanders of the eight passes cannot leave their posts without permission. Even if they have to leave for something, the generals of the four prefectures need to set off immediately to replace them.
The Ye Wentian that Gu Xiu knew was the General of the Northern Palace of Tiance Mansion.
Commanding a thousand black spear cavalry.
If the general of the North Gate leaves for some reason, according to the regulations, Ye Wentian should come here to guard the gate.
Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible to leave the position of general vacant, and it would be even more impossible to hand it over to the deputy general so casually. Even if it was handed over to the deputy general, he would not allow Mei Huaping to do whatever he wanted.
This is not reasonable.
"Well..." Mei Huaping hesitated and said, "Wang Shou was urgently summoned away. It seems that the Wan Yao Kingdom has invaded Zhongzhou and is currently engaged in a fierce battle with Tiance Mansion..."
"The invasion of the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom? When did it happen?" Gu Xiu was surprised. He had never heard of this when he was in Beiming.
"Three days ago."
Mei Huaping replied, "During that time, the Heavenly Dao disappeared during the Sealing Heaven Incident, and all Heavenly Dao Oaths became invalid. At the same time, the Myriad Demons Nation suddenly launched an attack on Zhongzhou. The Tiance Mansion urgently dispatched troops to support them. Wang Shou was also transferred at that time. At the same time, the Tiance Mansion issued orders to strengthen inspections at all passes."
Gu Xiu raised his eyebrows. The demon tribe's attack was no small matter, and it happened just when the Sealing Heaven Change began. There might be other secrets involved.
"Where's Ye Wentian? Where is he? Didn't he come?"
"coming."
"Oh?"
"Then he left again."
"Where did you go?"
"This..." Mei Huaping hesitated and stammered, unable to say anything.
But at this moment, a cold shout came from behind: "That bastard Ye Wentian is busy collecting his sister's body now. Maybe he has already gone to the underworld to accompany his sister."
As soon as these words came out, a sense of crisis came over me.
Without having time to turn his head to check who was coming, Gu Xiu did not hesitate at all. He turned his head slightly, but saw that the moment he turned his head, a golden light had already brushed his cheek and flew out. It was a golden arrow, with supreme sharpness and sharpness. When the arrow passed through his body, Mei Huaping, who had always appeared to be honest beside Gu Xiu, also hurriedly fled to the side.
Gu Xiu didn't stop him, but just turned his head to look at the person who came.
The man, dressed in a Tiance army robe, held a large bow with a coiled dragon pattern pointed at him. Mei Huaping had just fled to the man's side and immediately began to rebuke him, "I nearly capsized in a ditch and died. Why did you come only now?"
"What a waste." The bow-wielding general glanced at him and snorted coldly:
"You can't even beat a mere Nascent Soul, and you still call yourself the genius of Suling Palace? It's only right that a waste like you dies."
"You...!" Mei Huaping was furious, but when she faced the other party's eyes, she finally swallowed the rest of her words. She was obviously very afraid of the strength of this Tiance General, and finally she could only lower her voice and say:
"Don't underestimate the enemy, this kid is weird."
"And don't use soul magic on him. If possible, destroy his cultivation, cut off his limbs, and keep his soul alive. I still have great use for him."
General Tiance did not answer, but turned to look at Gu Xiu:
"Boy, you do have some strength. You came from Beiming. I checked your registration when you entered the city. You are from Wanbao Tower. I think your name is something like..."
"Guanqiyu?"
Guanqiyu, this is the name Gu Xiu gave himself in order to conceal his identity.
The name came from a limerick he had once read.
A man who watches chess in silence is not a gentleman. One move can shock the nine heavens.
The mountains, rivers and stars in the sleeves become disasters, and the sun and moon blades between the fingers become strings.
He never returned.
Also followed the rain and peace.
Now he thought, watch the chess language!
He wants to observe and break this great chess game of heaven and earth!
"What a bullshit name." General Tian Ce curled his lips. "You are just a member of a small guild. You dare to come to my Beimenguan Pass to cause trouble instead of hiding in your own Eastern Wasteland Beiming. Then you should understand that my Beimenguan Pass is not a place where any random person can come and do justice."
Say it.
General Tian Ce pulled the longbow in his hand in an instant, and then a divine arrow flashing with dazzling golden light came towards Gu Xiu. This man's strength had reached the realm of refining emptiness. At this moment, when he drew the bow, Gu Xiu immediately felt as if he was being stared at by some boundless power.
really.
He was just about to avoid the arrow, but the moment he dodged, the arrow immediately changed direction and came straight towards him, as if there was no way to avoid it.
Gu Xiu simply stopped dodging and swung the sword in his hand, and a stream of sword energy immediately shot out.
"boom!"
When the two sides came into contact, there was a loud explosion.
The sword energy and golden arrow both dissipated immediately.
"Huh?" General Tian Ce exclaimed softly, "You're indeed quite capable. The cultivation level you used to wield this sword has already reached the Divine Transformation stage, yet the sword energy contained within it is exceptionally strange. It can actually dissolve my golden arrow?"
Gu Xiu didn't answer, but simply asked, "Tian Ce Mansion has extremely strict military discipline. As a garrison commander, you even served as a deputy general at the North Gate. Even in Tian Ce Mansion, you're not considered a weakling. Why did you dare to openly disobey Tian Ce Mansion's orders, collude with others, become an accomplice to the evil, and kill innocent people?"
"Hehe, just because you have some skills, you think you can be a hero? Since there is a problem, I will explain it to you before you die!" Deputy General Tian Ce snorted and laughed, but pulled the longbow in his hand again.
next moment.
Another golden arrow shot out quickly, followed by the second arrow, the third arrow, and the fourth arrow...
Five arrows in a row.
They all carried a powerful aura of refining emptiness and headed straight for Gu Xiu!
