Volume 2: Achieving the Nine Heavens and Breaking the Cage Chapter 516: Game between the Father-in-law and the Son-in-law
Gu Xiaoxing was holding a fragment of tortoise shell, on which were engraved many strange words, which he could not understand.
However, when he used his spiritual sense to perceive it, he immediately understood the meaning.
"Circle drawing method?"
Gu Xiaoxing murmured, and according to the description on the tortoise shell fragment, it seemed that after learning this method, he could draw a perfect circle.
This made him stunned, and he wondered what kind of weird magic this was.
"Are you crazy? Why are you teaching people to draw circles? Why don't you teach people to draw squares?"
Gu Xiaoxing was speechless. He threw the tortoise shell fragment back and took out another one.
"The Art of Transforming All Things into Pills?"
"After practicing, everything in the world can be refined into pills? Why is it so unreliable?"
Gu Xiaoxing felt a little disgusted, so he threw it back and took out the next one.
"Moon-catching spell, catch the full moon and curse the enemy, catch the crescent moon... and curse yourself! Uncontrollable?!"
"Is it possible that he has such a serious illness and can curse himself?"
After reading through all the secret techniques on the five tortoise shell fragments, he found that none of them was serious and was completely speechless.
"No wonder these tortoise shell fragments were not used by Taoist Wen Cang. Even if you give them to me, I don't want them!"
Gu Xiaoxing finally saw that the secret magical powers on these tortoise shell fragments were indeed as rumored, strange and bizarre, and there were all kinds of them.
Especially the last one, which is the most outrageous. It is called the Ten Thousand Heads Divine Art. If you practice it to the end, you can grow ten thousand heads.
Just imagining that scene was so scary that it made Gu Xiaoxing's scalp tingle!
"This technique should be left for others to learn!"
"Huh? What is this?"
After throwing all the tortoise shell fragments into a corner of the storage space, Gu Xiaoxing was attracted by a pile of crystals.
These crystals are larger than spirit stones, and they have a glowing interior that seems to contain unimaginable unique energy.
Gu Xiaoxing took one out and looked at it carefully in his hand.
"That's fairy crystal."
At this moment, a voice appeared in Gu Xiaoxing's mind.
He turned around and found that it was his father-in-law Dongfang who had woken up from the illusion at some point and was looking at the crystal in his hand.
"Immortal crystal? What's its use?" Gu Xiaoxing asked curiously.
"It contains the power of immortal spirits, and is something for those who practice above the level of incarnation."
"Can the transformation of spirit be used?"
“It can be used, but it cannot be fully absorbed and there will be waste.”
Gu Xiaoxing felt it carefully and indeed felt an energy that was completely different from his own, much more powerful and pure. If he could absorb it, it would definitely be of great benefit to him.
So, he subconsciously activated the Soul Devouring Divine Ability, and immediately felt a special energy surging out from the fairy crystal, being sucked into his body, and then absorbed and refined by the Soul Devouring Divine Ability.
Until these special energies were completely integrated with Gu Xiaoxing and became a part of him!
When all the energy was absorbed and the fairy crystal completely dissipated, Gu Xiaoxing was surprised to find that his cultivation had actually improved a lot!
He has already reached the peak of the early stage of the Spirit Transformation, and now he is one step closer and can try to reach the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation.
However, he was suppressed by Gu Xiaoxing. He had just become a god not long ago and still needed some polishing.
But the improvement in cultivation brought by this fairy crystal still exceeded Gu Xiaoxing's imagination!
You know, his cultivation is far more profound than others. If it were given to someone else, this fairy crystal would probably be enough to allow a person in the early stage of the Spirit Transformation to be promoted to the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation!
How horrible is this?!
What’s even more terrifying is that in Wen Cang Laodao’s storage space, there are more than a thousand fairy crystals!
But there was one thing that made Gu Xiaoxing feel strange.
He easily absorbed all the energy of the entire fairy crystal, and it seemed that there was no waste as Dongfang's father-in-law said!
So he subconsciously looked at his father-in-law.
At this moment, Dongfang Yexuan was also looking at Gu Xiaoxing with surprise in his eyes.
Although he was reluctant to admit it, the talent of this kid Gu Xiaoxing might even far surpass his!
However, when Gu Xiaoxing looked at him, Dongfang Yexuan immediately regained his composure and said, "It seems that you have a special method of absorption, which is very good."
"But there is one thing you need to pay attention to when absorbing immortal crystals."
"The word 'immortal spirit' is a taboo in the cage. It cannot be mentioned, touched or reached. If you absorb too many immortal crystals, the immortal spirit power in it will bring disaster!"
Gu Xiaoxing was stunned. Is there such a hidden danger?
However, he had indeed felt the horror of the fairy taboos.
When Gu Jian said these two words, Gu Xiaoxing felt as if the heaven and earth were roaring and thunders were rushing.
"Since it cannot be explained, then why...?"
"I have already reached the realm of immortals and survived the catastrophe of nirvana. I am no longer subject to taboos, so it's natural to talk about it!" Dongfang Yexuan said.
Gu Xiaoxing suddenly realized, and said, "Doesn't that mean that the Spiritualization is still unable to absorb the Immortal Crystal?"
He felt himself and indeed felt that there was an extra energy in his body that was different from his own cultivation level. That should be the power of the immortal spirit.
Dongfang Yexuan shook his head slightly and said, "We just need to extract the immortal spirit from the immortal crystal."
As he spoke, Dongfang Yexuan stretched out a fox paw.
Gu Xiaoxing blinked, slightly puzzled.
Dongfang Yexuan frowned and his fox paws moved again.
Gu Xiaoxing suddenly realized and hurriedly took out a fairy crystal and placed it on Dongfang Yexuan's fox paw.
Dongfang Yexuan then nodded and said, "Watch it carefully!"
Then, Gu Xiaoxing saw his father-in-law stretch out his other fox paw and keep gesturing on the fairy crystal, as if forming a strange small magic circle.
Immediately afterwards, a breath containing an ethereal meaning was drawn out from the fairy crystal. This was the breath of immortal spirit!
"That's all. Have you written it down?"
Dongfang Yexuan held the fairy crystal in one paw and the fairy spirit in the other, and spoke slowly.
It was a small magic circle. With Gu Xiaoxing's current cultivation level, he could naturally remember it easily. He nodded and said, "Thank you, father-in-law. I've remembered it all!"
Afterwards, Gu Xiaoxing looked at Dongfang Yexuan, then looked at the fairy crystal on the fox's paw, and hesitated whether to take it back.
As for Dongfang Yexuan, he just opened his mouth slightly and sucked the fairy spirit into his mouth.
Dongfang Yexuan is not within the taboo, and he has once stepped into the fairyland. This fairyland aura is beneficial to him and harmless!
"Okay, that's it."
Dongfang Yexuan waved his hand as if he didn't see Gu Xiaoxing's gaze, and then began to practice to refine the fairy crystal in his hand , practicing as if no one was around.
Gu Xiaoxing widened his eyes, and the image of his father-in-law collapsed in his mind again!
A great master of the Immortal Realm actually cheated a young man out of his Immortal Crystals! ?
Gu Xiaoxing's eyes flickered, and finally, he made a decision!
In fact, when Dongfang Yexuan saw Gu Xiaoxing take out the fairy crystal, he was a little envious.
In order to successfully overcome the tribulation and start over, Dongfang Yexuan almost used up all his savings. Now he doesn't even have any resources for cultivation.
As a great cultivator who had once reached the immortal realm, Dongfang Yexuan did not need to worry about stabilizing his realm. As long as he had enough resources for cultivation, he would be able to quickly recover a certain level of strength.
The Jindan realm was still too low for him.
And if he could have immortal crystals to assist him in his practice, he could break through to the Divine Transformation realm in a very short period of time!
Only when one reaches the state of spiritual transformation can one truly possess the power to protect oneself.
But the fairy crystal is in Gu Xiaoxing's hands, so it is absolutely impossible for him, Dongfang Yexuan, to ask for it!
Rather than asking for it, it’s better to cheat!
"Could he be so shameless as to ask me to take him back?" Dongfang Yexuan thought.
Immortal crystals are indeed the resources used for cultivation in the immortal realm. For other elixir-forming cultivators, they may not be able to digest them because the cultivation contained in them is too huge and pure.
But for Dongfang Yexuan, it couldn't be more suitable!
In just two hours, he had advanced from the early stage of Jindan to the late stage of Jindan!
And at this time, he had only absorbed one tenth of the energy in the fairy crystal!
Dongfang Yexuan took a deep breath, stopped absorbing the immortal crystals, and prepared to sort out his improved cultivation first.
But when he slowly opened his eyes and saw the scene in front of him, he was stunned.
Gu Xiaoxing was waiting respectfully in front. When he saw Dongfang Yexuan wake up, he immediately stepped forward and said respectfully, "Father-in-law, this is the immortal spirit that I extracted for you!"
"Since I saw that these immortal spirits were useful to my father-in-law, I drew out all the immortal spirits from the immortal crystals. I hope you will accept them!"
As Gu Xiaoxing spoke, he presented a ball of extremely rich fairy spirit in his hand to Dongfang Yexuan.
Even with Dongfang Yexuan's state of mind, he couldn't help but be stunned at this moment. What was going on?
Seeing that Dongfang's father-in-law was looking at him without saying anything, Gu Xiaoxing quickly waved his hand and took out another pile of immortal crystals, saying, "These immortal crystals are also a little gift from me, my father-in-law, please accept them as well!"
However, Dongfang Yexuan still did not speak.
Gu Xiaoxing raised his head slightly and looked at Dongfang Yexuan cautiously without saying a word. He just waited for his father-in-law's answer.
Dongfang Yexuan looked at Gu Xiaoxing deeply. How could he not understand at this moment? In fact, Gu Xiaoxing had already seen through everything.
In fact, he should have seen through that he was dispersing his energy to cultivate again, and also saw what he needed.
But he saw through it, but didn't say it out loud.
This son-in-law is very smart!
Taking out these things now is equivalent to playing an open game.
If Dongfang Yexuan accepted these things, it would be considered as accepting Gu Xiaoxing's favor and he would let bygones be bygones.
"If I don't take it, will you take action?" Dongfang Yexuan suddenly asked.
Gu Xiaoxing's eyes remained unchanged as he said, "No!"
"Why?"
“You are Dongfang Yu’s father!”
Gu Xiaoxing's words were simple, but Dongfang Yexuan heard another meaning.
Just because he is Dongfang Yu's father!
Then, Dongfang Yexuan waved his hand, put away the immortal crystals, and said, "I need to retreat for a while."
Gu Xiaoxing was obviously relieved when he heard this, and then he patted his chest and said with a chuckle, "Don't worry, father-in-law, I'll keep it safe with you!"
Dongfang Yexuan nodded, opened his mouth and inhaled, directly sucking all the fairy spirit into his mouth, then slowly closed his eyes and entered into deep meditation.
Gu Xiaoxing wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead and said, "Forget it, forget it. For Xiaoyu's sake, I'll take a loss."
At the same time, Gu Xiaoxing said something in his heart.
"You're smart!"
