Volume 2: Achieving the Nine Heavens and Breaking the Cage Chapter 616 From Dust to Dust, From Ashes to Ashes
Xuantian Territory, Small Wasteland, Sword Controlling Sect.
At this moment in the Yu Jian Sect, the sky is clear and the Yu Jian City below is bustling with people. It can be said to be a harmonious and peaceful scene.
In the Yu Jian Sect, Sect Leader Xu Shidong was in the main hall, and Xu Baichou was standing beside him, seemingly discussing something.
At this moment, Xu Shidong's aura far exceeded that of the past, and he had already become a Nascent Soul cultivator!
Even Xu Baichou has reached the great perfection of Jindan from the late stage of Jindan, and it seems that he is not far from the Yuanying stage. Judging from his aura, he will probably break through soon!
At the beginning, because of Gu Xiaoxing's borrowing of the sword, not only was thirty golden fish given to the Yu Jian Sect, but a small golden dragon was also left behind.
These are rare cultivation resources in the world. They are nothing to Gu Xiaoxing now, but to the Yu Jian Sect, they are a great fortune.
Especially for the ancestor of the Yu Jian Sect, with Xu Ling's aptitude for cultivation, he had basically reached a bottleneck after practicing to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.
And now, after absorbing a whole Golden Dragon Inner Pill, the cultivation level of this Taoist Yu Ling has surprisingly reached the great perfection of the Nascent Soul from the middle stage of the Nascent Soul!
This is undoubtedly a huge improvement!
And more importantly, he has the possibility of being promoted to a god!
Although this possibility is not great, Xu Ling is already extremely satisfied. The lifespan of a Nascent Soul Great Perfection is five thousand years, so he has enough time.
On the eighth ancient sword of the Sword Controlling Sect, Xu Ling was in a very good mood, especially when he was looking at the cloudless sky, he felt more cheerful and younger.
He smiled slightly, ended his practice, and was about to enjoy the quiet time.
But at this moment, Xu Ling suddenly found that the ancient sword under his feet shook slightly, which made him stunned.
Then he seemed to have thought of something, and the smile on his face froze instantly, but before he had any time to react, the giant sword under his feet flew away with a "whoosh".
Moreover, it was not just the eighth ancient sword, but the nine ancient swords of truth that surrounded and supported the entire Sword Controlling Sect, all flew away at that moment!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, so fast that the sword flew away, but the entire Yu Jian Sect’s mountains, forests, buildings and people were still hovering in the air.
Then, when everyone was stunned, it collapsed and fell!
Fortunately, Xu Ling reacted quickly. He activated his cultivation and raised his hand. He actually lifted up the entire Yu Jian Sect by himself, thus preventing such a large sect from being destroyed.
But at this moment Xu Ling could no longer laugh. He glared upwards and roared at the sky.
"Lonely Little Star!"
At this moment, Gu Xiaoxing could only see the shadow of Xuantianyu from afar, and naturally could not hear Xu Ling's roar.
However, as he shouted "swords coming", he immediately felt something in his heart. Nine ancient swords were responding from afar!
Gu Xiaoxing didn't hesitate. He turned around suddenly and pointed at the huge and majestic Fire Bird!
In the distance, nine ancient swords instantly broke through the sky of the small wasteland and headed towards the deep space outside the Xuantian Realm, easily breaking through the constraints of space at an indescribable speed.
In a moment, they appeared behind Gu Xiaoxing, passed by his figure and headed straight for the Flame Immortal Bird!
And as Gu Xiaoxing thought, the nine ancient swords of truth seemed to be able to follow his will and rapidly grow larger during flight!
The Ancient Sword of Truth, which was originally only three hundred and sixty miles long, had suddenly grown into nine giant swords of one million miles long!
It seemed that it was at this moment that the power of these nine ancient swords of truth was truly demonstrated!
But compared with the majestic body of the Fire Fairy Bird, this million-mile giant sword still seems tiny.
But its power is absolutely terrifying, far exceeding all the means currently available to Gu Xiaoxing!
The nine ancient swords of truth did not encounter any hindrance and instantly penetrated into the center of the brows of the Flame Fairy Bird, piercing it through in an instant!
Immediately, a shrill roar came from the body of the Flame Fairy Bird. It was unknown whether Yang Tian felt pain or was angry because the fairy bird's body was damaged. He continued to flap his wings and crash into Gu Xiaoxing.
Gu Xiaoxing remained calm, but a fierce light flashed in his eyes and the seal in his hand suddenly turned.
Then nine swords broke out from the body of the Flame Fairy Bird, and when they overlapped, they formed an extremely huge sword ring.
The sword ring spun wildly, and endless sharpness swirled like flowing light, slashing at the only remaining wing of the Flame Fairy Bird!
As the sword ring flashed by, the entire wing of the Flame Fairy Bird was cut off and fell off its body.
At this point, the wings of the Flame Fairy Bird were broken, and its speed dropped sharply, even unable to reach the speed of light!
With its huge body, the moment it slowed down, in Gu Xiaoxing's eyes, it seemed as if its movements suddenly became extremely slow.
Although it still contained enormous power, this speed no longer posed a threat to Lone Star.
But Yang Tian still ignored it and continued to rush towards Gu Xiaoxing while roaring desperately.
Gu Xiaoxing quietly looked at the Flame Fairy Bird, or rather, at Yang Tian who had fallen into madness inside the Fairy Bird.
"I once said that I would let you truly experience what failure is. Yangtian, you lose!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the seals in his hands changed again, the sword ring dispersed, and the nine swords flew in front of Gu Xiaoxing in an instant, forming a huge sword spin!
The sword spun wildly, and with a finger from Gu Xiaoxing, it shot towards the oncoming flaming fairy bird, crushing its entire head, and then went straight into its body, wreaking havoc.
Finally, the huge body of the Flame Fairy Bird completely stopped in the deep space, leaving only a slight tremor, proving that Yang Tian was still there.
But Gu Xiaoxing saw clearly with his magic eyes that as the nine ancient swords of truth continued to destroy the body of the Flame Fairy Bird, the vitality of Yang Tian inside it was also rapidly decreasing, and he was not far from real death.
Gu Xiaoxing did not stop, but just watched the scene quietly, continuing to wreak havoc and eliminating Yang Tian's thoughts of life.
In this battle, Gu Xiaoxing won!
Although Gu Xiaoxing felt happy about the victory, he no longer felt too much joy.
Yang Tian is definitely a powerful enemy on Gu Xiaoxing's path of cultivation. He has forced him into a desperate situation several times and put him in great life and death crisis.
Even if he wins this battle, it is a narrow victory, allowing Gu Xiaoxing to reveal all his cards.
Even if Mo Xuyou, who had been promoted to a fairy, had not suddenly appeared and helped him, the outcome of this battle would have been hard to say.
Gu Xiaoxing was well aware of Yang Tian's strength, especially his methods and trump cards.
This is a big mountain, and now Gu Xiaoxing has finally climbed over it after going through untold hardships!
But at this moment, Gu Xiaoxing was exceptionally calm both in expression and in his heart.
Because he knew that behind this mountain, there was a bigger mountain!
Until Yang Tian’s life thoughts were completely wiped out in the flaming fairy bird and not a trace was left, it meant that Yang Tian had completely fallen!
Taking a deep breath, Gu Xiaoxing finally felt deeply tired at this moment.
He raised his finger, and nine ancient swords of truth immediately flew out from the body of the flaming fairy bird, which was already riddled with holes.
With the fall of Yang Tian, there was no longer the huge movement in the deep sky like before. There were only the quietly floating corpses, still burning.
"Um?!"
Gu Xiaoxing, who had retracted his sword, was suddenly startled, because he felt an unusual breath from a sword hole on the remains of the immortal bird.
After a slight hesitation, he flew over and entered the body of the fairy bird through the sword hole.
After many twists and turns, finally, a huge crimson object appeared in Gu Xiaoxing's eyes. It looked a bit like a huge crystal.
Even Gu Xiaoxing could sense that it contained extremely powerful fire energy. He guessed that it was probably the inner elixir of a monster.
The location of this crystal core is exactly in the center of the fairy bird's body. The fairy bird's flesh is so thick that Gu Xiaoxing had never seen it before.
If the Ancient Sword of Truth had not pierced the immortal bird's body, leaving a sword hole and allowing its aura to escape, Gu Xiaoxing would most likely have missed this opportunity.
A crystal core that can exist in the corpse of a fire fairy bird for tens of thousands of years and still contain rich divinity is a good thing no matter how you look at it!
Gu Xiaoxing took the crystal core from the body of the Flame Fairy Bird with a bold move and put it into the storage space.
At the same time, the flame that was still burning on the corpse of the immortal bird was extinguished instantly, and a sense of decay arose, becoming stronger and stronger.
Gu Xiaoxing's expression changed, and he immediately understood that the crystal core he had taken away was probably the fundamental reason why the corpse of the immortal bird could exist for tens of thousands of years and still maintain its divinity!
As the sense of decay appeared, an extremely strong stench came, and Gu Xiaoxing hurriedly flew out of the body of the fairy bird as fast as possible.
When he flew out of the deep space and turned around, he saw that the entire body of the immortal bird was decaying and gradually disintegrating into countless dust.
Gu Xiaoxing suddenly looked at this scene and felt as if his life was fading away.
Dust returns to dust, earth returns to earth, even such a powerful monster will fall and be annihilated, so what exactly does it take to achieve immortality?
Gu Xiaoxing didn't know, but he knew that this road to immortality must be the most difficult road in the world.
"And my path is even harder!"
Gu Xiaoxing stopped looking at the corpse of the immortal bird and slowly turned around to look towards Xuantianyu.
In the distance, a figure was coming quickly. He had a big white tooth under his feet and his figure was mysterious and ethereal. Who else could it be but Dongfang Yexuan?
When Dongfang Yexuan came to Gu Xiaoxing, he was slightly stunned when he saw the decaying corpse of the immortal bird.
Dongfang Yexuan naturally recognized the firebird that carried Yang Tianyu, and when he learned everything from Gu Xiaoxing, he suddenly understood.
Finally, he shook his head and sighed.
"Those who are crazy about Tao will eventually be annihilated by Tao. This can also be regarded as Yangtian's nirvana."
Gu Xiaoxing nodded slightly and was about to speak in agreement, to flatter his father-in-law and improve the relationship between them.
But suddenly, there was a flash of red light, and a figure flew out of his body.
This is a red fire unicorn with disheveled hair and trembling all over. It looks very miserable, as if it had just experienced a shocking battle and became extremely weak because its cultivation was almost exhausted.
Dongfang Yexuan was slightly startled. Looking at the fire unicorn, he felt it looked familiar. It seemed to be... Lord Zhu Tianzun?
