Volume 2: Achieving the Nine Heavens and Breaking the Cage Chapter 625: A Place Beyond the World
When Gu Xiaoxing and his companions came out of the realm of existence and non-existence, they left Jianyi Valley directly.
The only pity is that Gu Xiaoxing did not see Chen Ziling in the valley. He was still training in the outside world and had not returned to the valley.
The same goes for Li Azhi.
But Gu Xiaoxing met her during his travels.
Li Azhi seemed to be used to being alone. When Gu Xiaoxing saw her, she was practicing sword under a huge waterfall.
Then, he was so frightened by Gu Xiaoxing's cry of "Azhi's granddaughter" that the sword in his hand almost fell into the waterfall.
Then she glanced at Gu Xiaoxing coldly, raised her sword... and turned and ran!
Gu Xiaoxing looked at her slightly embarrassed figure, shook his head and sighed: "They say that generations apart are close, but she runs away every time she sees me...!"
When Gu Xiaoxing felt the two strange looks around him, he quickly coughed and explained, "She was the one who insisted on calling me Grandpa Gu. I didn't force her!"
After hearing this, Qiao Yanran couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, obviously not believing it.
Gu Xiaoxing glared at her unhappily, warned her not to sabotage, and then left with a few others.
It only took the four of them half a month to travel across the entire Xuantian Continent!
For the Nascent Soul stage, the Xuantian Continent can be said to be vast and boundless, but once one reaches the Spiritual Transformation stage, one will no longer have this feeling.
Because it would not take too long for a god to cross the Xuantian Continent.
As for Gu Xiaoxing today, crossing the Xuantian Continent is just a matter of moments.
If it weren't for the need to consider the feelings of Xu Qianxing and the others, Gu Xiaoxing would be able to travel across the entire Xuantian Continent in less than a day.
But Gu Xiaoxing was not in a hurry. He tried his best to empty his mind and feel the brief and rare tranquility of this half month!
He did not go looking for Dongfang Yu because he was really afraid of Qiao Yanran and Dongfang Yu meeting. Every time these two people played against each other, it made his scalp tingle.
But what made Gu Xiaoxing helpless was that he didn't go to find Dongfang Yu, but Dongfang Yu came to him on his own.
They have a love bond, there is no way to hide!
So, in fact, the only peace that Gu Xiaoxing could enjoy was the first few days.
The next few days were complete torture. Qiao Yanran and Dongfang Yu didn't fight or quarrel. They were clearly talking and laughing, but their behavior was a thousand times more terrifying than quarreling and fighting!
In the end, Gu Xiaoxing became autistic.
"Is it possible that these two people had a grudge against each other in their previous lives?"
In the end, Gu Xiaoxing simply chose to shut himself off from the world and stay in seclusion.
However, he still did not return to Xuantian Palace or the Soul-Devouring Sect, but instead found a secluded place on the Xuantian Continent.
Of course, Dongfang Yu and a few others also lived in this secluded place. They occasionally went into seclusion, but most of the time they lived together.
But no matter how long they stayed there, the relationship between Qiao Yanran and Dongfang Yu did not improve at all.
On the contrary, Xu Qianxing has a good relationship with both of them.
As for Feng Li'er, she is the complete opposite of Gu Xiaoxing. No matter how intense the game between Dongfang Yu and Qiao Yanran is, sometimes even Xu Qianxing feels helpless.
But Feng Li'er always managed to remain calm and unperturbed, as if nothing could make her change her expression, and her temperament was extremely indifferent.
Three years passed in these days that could not be described as happy.
And Gu Xiaoxing also stayed in seclusion for three whole years!
Three years have passed, and this once picturesque paradise has now changed slightly.
In this valley, there is not only a manor, but also a large peach forest.
These peach trees were all planted by Xu Qianxing.
Originally there were only a few sparse plants, and only a few petals fell, so Xu Qianxing planted a large area.
Now the whole valley is filled with the fragrance of peach blossoms and petals flying everywhere, it is like a fairyland on earth!
Xu Qianxing was lying on the ground in the valley covered with peach blossoms, enjoying the quiet time.
At one side, Feng Li'er was sitting cross-legged next to Xu Qianxing, with her eyes closed, sitting upright, and it was unclear whether she was taking a nap or practicing.
But judging from her Nascent Soul Great Perfection cultivation, she must be practicing!
Yes!
Thirteen-year-old Feng Li'er has already reached the great perfection of the Nascent Soul stage!
This can no longer be described as horrific, it is simply appalling!
She has been practicing for only about five years, during which time she has crossed the levels of Qi Condensation, Foundation Building, and Dan Formation!
Now, I am almost reaching the Nascent Soul stage!
In the entire cage, there has never been a single person who could reach the ultimate level from Qi Condensation to Spirit Transformation!
Even Dongfang Yexuan was unable to accomplish this feat.
The same goes for Gu Xiaoxing. He was unable to reach the limit when he was condensing Qi and building his foundation!
If Feng Li'er continues like this, she will probably become the number one person in this cage in the near future.
On the other side of the manor, there is no peach forest, but instead a patch of half-human-high fairy tea trees.
Two people who usually dislike each other are now together in the tea forest.
These two people are naturally Qiao Yanran and Dongfang Yu. They don’t look at each other.
Even the territory was divided, with each person occupying half of the tea forest.
They are not picking tea leaves, but collecting dew from the tea trees.
These tea trees are not ordinary tea trees, but extremely rare fairy tea trees. Although their tea leaves are also fragrant, they are far inferior to the fairy dew condensed on the leaves.
Fairy dew, fairy dew, this is a rare thing even in the fairyland. It can not only strengthen the soul, but also subtly improve the physical condition and enhance one's spirituality. It has great benefits.
Of course, the most important thing is that it has an incredible fragrance, which is unique in the world!
The only trouble may be that when collecting the dew, special items and special techniques must be used, otherwise the dew will become ineffective.
It was Gu Xiaoxing who dug it out and planted it for the two of them. He originally wanted them to build a good relationship, but it ended up causing a clear division between the two of them!
At this moment, the space in the entire valley shook slightly. Dongfang Yu and Qiao Yanran paused at the same time and looked towards a small hill behind the manor.
There was a cave there, and inside the cave was Gu Xiaoxing who was in seclusion!
The next moment when the two of them looked at the same time, endless array patterns came overwhelming.
In an instant, the entire valley was submerged, and the number of these array patterns was more than tens of millions!
But immediately afterwards, all the gushing array patterns shrank back into the cave under the small hill like the tide rolling back.
Gu Xiaoxing looked at the only formation pattern left in front of him and smiled slightly.
During these three years of seclusion, he gained a lot. Not only did he absorb a large amount of immortal crystals, but he also completely consolidated his cultivation and reached the limit of the Great Perfection of the Spirit Transformation!
The next step is to reach the ultimate state of transformation into a god!
Now that you have decided to break the cage, you naturally have to break through your limits!
But speaking of it, the biggest gain was still Gu Xiaoxing's formation.
Over the past three years, he has refined one tenth of the formation patterns in the Thunder Cloud Sky.
Don’t underestimate this one-tenth. In fact, the number of array patterns is already at the level of billions!
Gu Xiaoxing even felt that his strength in formations was no weaker than his strength in other aspects!
It might even be a bit stronger!
Because as the drop of water from Gu Xiaoxing absorbed more and more array patterns, it was no weaker than the indestructible ancient treasure.
In other words, this drop of water of Gu Xiaoxing has become a special indestructible ancient treasure!
And as more formation patterns are integrated in the future, it will become stronger, and eventually begin to move towards becoming a Taoist soldier!
He grabbed the water droplet array in front of him, integrated it into his body, and immediately felt the boundless power contained therein.
Then he felt himself again and was satisfied. After three years of seclusion, his condition was better than ever before!
Finally, he slowly stood up and walked out of the cave. It was time to slow down.
When Gu Xiaoxing walked out of the cave, he saw two people waiting for him in front of him, and his eyes immediately lit up.
These two people were naturally Qiao Yanran and Dongfang Yu. They each held a bottle in their hands and stood together in a pretty manner.
Seeing this scene, Gu Xiaoxing felt very happy and thought to himself, "Could it be that my tea tree plan was successful? Can they finally live in harmony?"
Thinking of this, Gu Xiaoxing was so excited that he even took a step forward and hugged them both at the same time.
Because the two of them were too close, their bodies stiffened unconsciously, but they didn't resist or struggle. They just let Gu Xiaoxing hold them, with friendly smiles on their faces.
"Great! You guys...!"
Gu Xiaoxing was still excited, but before he could finish his first sentence, Dongfang Yu's voice came to his ears.
"Xiao Xing, I picked some fairy dew. You've been fasting for too long. Come, drink a sip of the fairy dew to moisten your throat first!"
When Gu Xiaoxing heard this, he became even happier and instinctively wanted to pick it up.
But at this moment, Qiao Yanran's voice was heard again from the other side.
"Sir, Yanran has also picked some here..."
Gu Xiaoxing's movements came to an abrupt halt, and the smile on his face froze instantly.
"Xiaoxing, don't be in a daze. Come, drink the elixir first."
"Sir, drink mine first. If it's not enough, I'll save all the fairy dew Yanran has collected these days for you!"
Gu Xiaoxing's scalp gradually became numb, he shrank his neck, and said with a dry laugh: "This fairy dew is good for beauty and skin care, it's useless for me to drink it, how about you keep it for yourselves?"
"How can that be possible!?"
Dongfang Yu refused directly, "This is all prepared for you, come on, open your mouth!"
"Master, Yanran will feed you...!"
Gu Xiaoxing's scalp was ripping apart, and he had the urge to turn around and continue his retreat.
Fortunately, at this time, the savior appeared, Xu Qianxing and Feng Li'er were rushing over from the other side.
Gu Xiaoxing was quick-witted and took the bottles from Qiao Yanran and Dongfang Yu, then appeared in front of Xu Qianxing and Feng Li'er.
"You came at the right time. This is the nectar that Xiaoyu and Yanran picked for you two. Drink it. It will bring you great benefits!"
Seeing the two of them accept the bottle, Gu Xiaoxing breathed a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders!
When Xu Qianxing saw his expression, she couldn't help but laugh secretly. She had naturally tasted the elixir before.
Whether it was Qiao Yanran or Dongfang Yu, they would pick a bottle and give it to her from time to time.
But when Gu Xiaoxing looked at Xu Qianxing carefully, he frowned.
Because three years have passed, and her cultivation... is still at the stage of forming the pill!
