Volume 2: Achieving the Nine Heavens and Breaking the Cage Chapter 428: One Thousand Years Is Not Enough!
Under the nameless valley, countless monsters are rampant. Among them, a large number of foundation-building monsters live in groups, and there are also many core-forming monsters that occupy the land as kings. Among them, the strongest is an Iron Mountain Monster in the late core-forming stage!
This monster exudes a powerful aura all the time, and no other monsters dare to approach within dozens of miles.
If an ordinary Jindan cultivator breaks into such a valley of monsters, he would probably come with his life but leave with his life.
I'm afraid that only after reaching the great perfection of Jindan can one safely walk in this valley.
But in fact, this valley is far from being as simple as it seems. Compared to the countless monsters living here, the evil sect hidden in the dark is even more terrifying!
This is because the leader of this demon sect is an old monster who has reached the great perfection of the Jindan stage, and he has three Dharma protectors under him, whose cultivation is all in the late Jindan stage!
Plus there are several remaining people in the early and middle stages of the Jindan period, as well as some foundation-building cultivators.
It seems that the strength of such a demon sect is not much worse than those first-rate forces in the small wasteland, and it is even stronger than many of them!
After Xu Qianxing finished listening to Gu Xiaoxing's description, he couldn't help but be surprised and asked, "Is it really okay to leave it to them?"
Gu Xiaoxing hugged her and said, "It's not good to have everything go smoothly all the time. They have too little experience, so there will always be some setbacks. Don't worry, I'm here, everything will be fine."
"Yeah!" Xu Qianxing buried his head in Xiaoxing's arms.
Gu Xiaoxing pulled up her cheek and asked, "Have you not practiced much recently?"
Xu Qianxing's eyes were somewhat evasive, and he said, "I...I don't want to practice."
Gu Xiaoxing was stunned when he heard this, and then felt helpless. He couldn't help but think of Master Bai and Nanhe.
Before meeting him, Xu Qianxing had practiced day after day for years and was hailed as a peerless genius.
But now that she follows me, she is unwilling to even practice. It is not so much that she is unwilling, but rather that she does not like or even dislikes practicing.
She didn't care about immortality, and gradually she came to like the rolling clouds, the blooming and withering flowers, the gentle breeze on her face, and the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers.
This kind of Xu Qianxing has changed because of Gu Xiaoxing, but this is the real Xu Qianxing.
Gu Xiaoxing could have forced her to practice, but he didn't want to do that. He liked to let her do what she liked.
"At most, I can cook more golden dragon meat for her later. Oh, and real dragon meat."
“Huh…! Fortunately, fortunately, this sect master doesn’t have much else, but he has a lot of treasures. Even if he has to pile them up hard, he will pile them up for her to reach the Nascent Soul stage.”
"When it really doesn't work, it won't be too late to force her to practice!"
"At least you have to live a million or eight hundred thousand years first, right?"
"How can a thousand years be enough?!"
Xu Qianxing's ears trembled slightly, as if he heard something Gu Xiaoxing said, but he couldn't hear it clearly, so he asked, "Did you speak?"
Gu Xiaoxing bit her ear and said softly, "I said...you will never escape from my grasp."
Suddenly, Xu Qianxing's face turned red. She was obviously very embarrassed, but for so many years, she had never known how to resist and let Xiaoxing do whatever he wanted.
At this time, fighting had already begun below, monsters flew away, and there were shouts of killing.
In fact, Gu Xiaoxing himself knew that it was really difficult for his two disciples to deal with such a powerful force.
If this evil sect had not been so intent on hiding that it had not arranged any powerful means like the sect protection formation, Gu Xiaoxing would not have let the two of them go like that.
As for what means the two of them will choose to attack the Demon Sect, Gu Xiaoxing doesn't care. This is exactly where the two of them need experience.
In fact, this is how Gu Xiaoxing himself came all the way. A good sword is the result of repeated grinding. Just as he said, he cannot protect them forever, and he will leave again soon.
So during this period of time, he will try his best to make his two disciples stronger.
Suddenly, Gu Xiaoxing's mind shook, and he obviously sensed something, and immediately showed a look of surprise.
Xu Qianxing was held and his ear was bitten for a while. The blush on his face had not yet faded away when he saw Gu Xiaoxing raise his hand and point out a pitch-black talisman.
On the pitch-black talisman, there were flashing bright black lines, which looked like a giant bird soaring above the mountains.
Xu Qianxing was surprised and asked, "What is this?"
"Innate Spirit Talisman."
Gu Xiaoxing said: "Remember the Suzaku I told you about? I completed its residual soul and integrated it into the Xiantian Spirit Talisman."
"Xiao Zhu, you stay here and watch. I have something to do and I'll be leaving for now."
After saying that, Gu Xiaoxing hugged Xu Qianxing and disappeared in one step, leaving only a black talisman floating in the air.
After taking two steps in succession, Gu Xiaoxing and his companion appeared directly on a barren mountain 200,000 miles away.
He had already used his divine sense to investigate clearly and found that there was no one here within tens of thousands of miles, and there were not even a few trees. It was a very good place.
"Come out and make a fortune."
Suddenly, a pure white lightning flashed between Gu Xiaoxing's eyebrows, and the little Qilin flew out.
Even though they had not seen each other for a long time, and even Fa Cai's appearance had changed a lot, Xu Qianxing still recognized it at a glance. This was exactly the thunder spirit that Xiaoxing brought out from the thunder cloud sky.
The little Qilin was very happy to see Xu Qianxing. He wagged his tail and jumped over, his body flashing with lightning and crackling.
Gu Xiaoxing was startled, and quickly hugged Xu Qianxing to protect him behind him. He glared at Facai and said, "You can hardly control yourself, why are you still having fun? If you accidentally hurt Qianxing, forget about the mother Qilin."
"Hurry up and break through...!"
Yes, what Gu Xiaoxing sensed before was that the little Qilin had woken up and showed signs of a breakthrough right after waking up, so he brought him here.
The little Qilin felt aggrieved immediately after being scolded by its master, but it still obediently retreated some distance and started its breakthrough.
Once it successfully breaks through, it will become a thunder demon spirit in the Divine Transformation Realm. By then, its strength will definitely reach a terrifying level!
Gu Xiaoxing originally thought that his breakthrough in getting rich would be earth-shattering. After all, he was the most violent thunder demon in the world, and he had mastered the ultimate destructive thunder method and the striking thunder method.
If this breakthrough happens, not only will it shock the heavens and the earth and make the ghosts weep, but it will at least be like a roaring thunder, destroying thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, right?
But the actual situation was that a flash of lightning appeared on the little Qilin's body, and a ball of lightning condensed and completely enveloped it.
And then, nothing happened!
Gu Xiaoxing was speechless, looking at the ball of lightning floating quietly in the air. If he had known this, he would not have run so far.
This wait lasted for three days.
During these three days, the thunder ball did not react at all.
While Gu Xiaoxing was guarding the little Qilin and protecting it, he also personally prepared a large and delicious meal to nourish Xu Qianxing's body.
Originally, Gu Xiaoxing wanted to get some real dragon meat for Xu Qianxing to eat, but unfortunately, her cultivation was still too low and she couldn't bear it, not even the Golden Dragon.
Finally, Gu Xiaoxing had no choice but to start with the golden fish. Even so, it still took Xu Qianxing some time to digest each meal.
However, his cultivation level improved really quickly. After a few meals of golden fish, Xu Qianxing's cultivation level had reached the peak of the middle stage of Jindan.
Then, she hit a bottleneck.
This made Gu Xiaoxing helpless, although he had basically not encountered any bottlenecks so far.
But he also knew that the bottleneck could only be broken through by force, which would involve certain risks.
Or, you can wait for an opportunity after some time has passed and make a breakthrough by accumulating your strength. In this way, the risk will be much smaller.
However, Gu Xiaoxing was not too worried. He only needed to use his great cultivation to sort out Xu Qianxing's body for a period of time, and he could easily break through this bottleneck.
On the other side, the battle continues.
The Suzaku Spirit resides in the innate talisman, and the Suzaku Spirit contains a large amount of Gu Xiaoxing's spiritual thoughts, so he can clearly see everything that happens in the valley through the Suzaku Spirit.
The battle lasted for three days. Du Xu and Gu Nianxue were both injured, but they did not let Gu Xiaoxing down. They completed the rescue mission first and then carried out the demon-killing mission.
Now, the only one left is the leader of the Demon Sect who is fleeing and has reached the great perfection of the Jindan stage.
In fact, although Du Xu and Gu Nianxue are at different levels of cultivation, the combat power of any one of them is no worse than that of a Jindan Great Perfection.
Du Xu is even slightly stronger than the Great Perfection of Jindan.
But their mission is not just to kill the leader of the Demon Sect, they also need to rescue thousands of children, and more importantly, eradicate the Demon Sect completely!
This is the real difficulty. The people of the Demon Sect are full of tricks. Without some scheming and tricks, it is impossible for two people in the late Jindan stage to do all these, no matter how strong their combat power is.
But Du Xu and Gu Nianxue did it, which made Gu Xiaoxing feel very relieved. It showed that he still had vision. At least he did not accept two idiots as his apprentices.
Then he saw his two good disciples chasing the leader of the Demon Sect out of the valley and flying towards him.
A distance of two hundred thousand miles is not far for one who has reached the Great Perfection of the Jindan Stage. If one flies at full speed, it will only take about a quarter of an hour.
In fact, Gu Nianxue and the other person were not slower than the Mormon leader, but because they had completed the mission, they were both injured a lot and could not catch up for a while.
Until the end, the leader of the Demon Sect saw the figures of Gu Xiaoxing and Xu Qianxing from afar. He was immediately overjoyed and rushed over at his maximum speed.
"My two fellow Taoists, I am being hunted by the evildoers of the Demon Sect. I beg you to lend me a hand!!"
The leader of the Demon Sect spoke loudly, shouting like a thief crying "Catch the thief!"
Gu Xiaoxing looked at him strangely.
Xu Qianxing blinked, looking a little silly and cute.
Not far behind the leader of the Demon Sect, the two people who were still chasing heard the voice and saw the figures of their master and his wife. They were startled and then looked strange.
When the leader of the Demon Sect saw that Gu Xiaoxing and the other man were silent, murderous intent immediately appeared in his eyes. Especially when he realized that Xu Qianxing was only in the middle stage of the Core Formation stage, the murderous intent became even stronger.
And then, he found himself unable to move.
Suddenly, his eyes fell on Gu Xiaoxing, and immediately, an unprecedented fear lingered in his heart.
