#223 - Good people are naturally used.
Beneath the bamboo forest, Gu An remained silent.
This time, Hua Jiyang's letter contained many strange things that made him feel odd.
It even told him to be careful of Chu Meng.
But how could he be careful?
It wasn't just that he had interacted with Chu Meng; she knew many things about him.
There was no escaping.
Moreover, it wasn't just the Golden Core stage; it was the Primordial Spirit stage.
Even more than that.
To this day, he couldn't see through her cultivation level.
Having studied the "Essence of Qi" thoroughly, even being at the Perfected state, he could usually sense one or two realms higher.
But Chu Meng was very difficult to perceive.
Of course, it could also be that her ability to conceal herself was very high.
But some auras couldn't be faked.
Higher than the Golden Core stage.
Defense was impossible, but it also made him realize that Chu Meng's genius seemed not to be fully displayed to the outside world.
He also didn't know what her intentions were.
In addition, there was the fourth volume of the "Qi Sea Heavenly Dipper".
Gu An took a look at it.
He found that Hua Jiyang really understood these things.
He also didn't know where he got them.
And he was willing to give them to him; the further back, the harder these things were to obtain.
They could even be lost.
The first two volumes of the "Qi Sea Heavenly Dipper" should be quite easy to obtain, but the later ones were hard to say.
Not to mention the previous "Myriad Manifestations of Samsara".
Mastering the basics, such manuals were the most difficult to obtain.
However, he didn't understand why Hua Jiyang was so short of spirit stones.
He put away the envelope and the fourth volume of the "Qi Sea Heavenly Dipper".
Gu An took out a saber and a sword.
He didn't look closely at the fourth volume, waiting until he needed to cultivate it later.
Gu An first looked at the long saber.
"Heaven's Mandate."
What a strange name.
The hilt of the Heaven's Mandate Saber was ornate.
Clang!
The blade was drawn, a black line running down the middle of the silver-white blade.
Feeling the blade, Gu An had a feeling of gathering his thoughts, treating all things in the world equally.
Under the Heaven's Mandate, all things are equal.
This saber seemed to be forged to slay all enemies under heaven.
It could affect a person's state of mind.
To unleash the power of the Heaven's Mandate Saber, one's state of mind had to be compatible.
Even the saber techniques had to be compatible.
Gu An was silent.
He couldn't be compatible.
He didn't even have any saber techniques.
"This saber is suitable for geniuses, heaven-blessed geniuses."
The long saber was sheathed.
Humanity responded.
The hilt was simple and unadorned, a pure white line running down the silver-white blade.
When he drew the sword, Gu An felt his mind being affected again.
Humanity was profound and complex, requiring one to carry virtue with generosity and strive for self-improvement.
Humanity could sever Heaven's Mandate, and Heaven's Mandate could slay Humanity.
The two restrained each other and could also complement each other.
Gu An was silent for a moment; whether it was the sword or the saber, they weren't of much use to him.
Sun Chaser was still better.
At least it wouldn't affect his state of mind.
Forcing the use of Heaven's Mandate or Humanity would definitely cause trouble.
He should keep them; if someone needed them in the future, he could sell them.
He could get some spirit stones.
Or he could give them away.
With that, Gu An stopped thinking about the letter.
There weren't any major changes at the moment; improving his cultivation was the most important thing.
He could only wait and see what the "Qi Sea Heavenly Dipper" would become in the future.
He had numerical values he could use, so he should have enough reaction time.
No longer focusing on these things, Gu An began to focus on the spirit bamboo.
Taking a deep breath, Gu An took out his axe, hoping for a surprise.
Finding a good angle, Gu An swung the axe.
Clang!
It was actually the sound of metal colliding.
Immediately afterward, Gu An felt a surge of sword intent entering his body through the axe.
The sword intent shattered his power.
Gu An was shocked; fortunately, the "Qi Sea Heavenly Dipper" surged and smoothed out these sword intents.
"It really is sharp."
Gu An looked at the axe already embedded in the bamboo, feeling somewhat alarmed.
The bamboo here was indeed not simple.
After that, he continued to swing the axe.
Crisp sounds kept coming out.
Although this bamboo could temper sword intent, Gu An had no intention of being tempered.
Instead, he directly used the "Qi Sea Heavenly Dipper" to resist.
Thus, felling the trees went exceptionally smoothly.
After a dozen or so strikes, Gu An felt a warm current.
"Bitter cultivation +1."
Gu An breathed a sigh of relief; it had only been a dozen strikes.
Although he had only chopped halfway through, one point from a tree was still considerable.
After that, Gu An wholeheartedly began to fell the trees.
Only when the first bamboo tree fell did a second warm current not appear.
Gu An wasn't discouraged and began to continue felling the bamboo trees.
Afterward, each bamboo tree had a warm current appear.
Time passed little by little.
The numerical values also increased non-stop.
"Bitter cultivation +1."
"Technique +1."
"Technique +1."
"Bitter cultivation +1."
In just half a day, Gu An had already felled thirty-six bamboo trees.
Although it was fast at first, the axe became increasingly heavy because of the sword intent.
Although the sword intent within his body was being neutralized.
He still couldn't grasp this intent, nor did he have his own intent.
So the sword intent on the axe would accumulate more and more.
Even if the "Qi Sea Heavenly Dipper" covered it, it couldn't be eliminated.
But Gu An didn't care.
If the axe became heavy, he would change one.
He had brought several extra.
Over time, the sword intent should also be eliminated.
It would be good to use them in rotation.
If not, he would use the Heaven's Mandate Saber or Humanity Sword to see if they could absorb the sword intent.
If they could absorb it, he would absorb it.
As long as it didn't affect his felling of the bamboo trees, it was all good.
That night.
Gu An changed three axes; his body had been using the "Qi Sea Heavenly Dipper" for a long time, and it did have a certain load.
It was time to rest.
The sword intent's influence was too great; it really was helpless.
Sword Immortals were indeed extraordinary.
Afterward, Gu An looked at the panel.
【Name: Gu An】
【Cultivation: Early-stage Primordial Spirit】
【Status: Poison in the Qi Sea】
【Techniques: 33 / 50】
【Bitter Cultivation: 27 / 100】
【Ring of Destiny】
Today, there were only about fifty numerical values.
Almost all of them were obtained in the morning; later, not to mention the axe having sword intent, the surrounding environment also had it.
When he felled the trees, he not only had to take care of the sword intent in his body, but also the sword intent of the axe, and also the sword intent of the forest.
The forest's should be sword aura.
Felling trees here was difficult.
Wanting to obtain the core Sword Immortal bamboo tree was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
Fortunately, Gu An wasn't greedy; he only needed to fell the trees.
Afterward, he sat cross-legged and began to rest, waiting to fell the trees tomorrow.
Only after a short time did he realize that someone had discovered him and then quickly left.
Gu An slowly opened his eyes and looked in the direction where the other person disappeared.
It should be the late-stage Golden Core cultivator who led the way earlier.
It was Li Yue's people.
"Did they discover the situation here and then want to bring demon beasts over?"
Gu An wasn't sure.
But whether it was or wasn't wasn't important.
He didn't want to provoke trouble for the time being; he only wanted to concentrate on felling trees.
It would be much more convenient to do other things when his cultivation was sufficient.
Although he was trapped by the "Qi Sea Heavenly Dipper", he was only trapped in the major realm.
Now, in the early-stage Primordial Spirit realm, there was no bottleneck in advancing to the Perfected Primordial Spirit realm.
With this bamboo forest, not to mention advancing to the Perfected Primordial Spirit realm, he still had hope of reaching the late stage.
Afterward, Gu An closed his eyes and continued to adjust his breathing.
He didn't know when those people would come, or whether they would have other tricks.
A long time later.
The hour of midnight arrived.
Gu An felt the bamboo forest was silent, and the suppression of the sword aura on him was no longer there, but as long as he went to fell the bamboo trees, the suppression would be there again.
It would indeed be troublesome to act later.
But the Ring of Destiny came to remind him again.
【Yesterday morning, Li Yue had already thought of a plan, letting the two people beside her look for your traces, Xu Chenglong finally saw you at night, and also understood where the Sword Immortal's family entrance is.
Li Yue got the news, and began to prepare to act, getting the spirit medicine to go to you as soon as possible, first let you block it, see if Lü Ping left you any life-saving means, if you die she will run into the Sword Immortal's home.
Let Lü Ping take action to save her.
She saw you by the river destroying a lot of things in order to save people, thinking you are a warm-hearted person.
Such a person does not do good things for her, it is really sorry for you.
Good people should stand in front of her, face her danger, save her and your heart will definitely be full of accomplishment.
She thinks you should thank her.
However, for safety, she decided to use the Star Curtain this time. It was personally crafted by her master. Back then, only Zuo Youyan's Sun-Chasing Piercer managed to penetrate it, scaring her half to death.
But Zuo Youyan is most likely dead. No one in the Nascent Soul stage can break through the Star Curtain.
In case you die too quickly, the Star Curtain can also block the demon beasts, giving her time to escape.
Looking at the lengthy feedback, Gu An remained silent.
He saved her, and he should thank her?
Not only that, but he'd also feel a sense of accomplishment?
Should good people be taken advantage of like this?
It reminded Gu An of Ren Shan.
Good people should be exploited, should have guns pointed at them.
However, the Star Curtain surprised him. Ordinary Nascent Souls couldn't break through its defense?
Only the Sun-Chasing Piercer could?
Would the Mandate of Heaven and Human Reason work?
Would his Qi Sea Heavenly罡 work?
If not, what about the Cage enhanced Qi Sea Heavenly罡?
Gu An wasn't sure and didn't intend to try. He'd wait for them to come.
And so, Gu An continued to wait.
This time, he didn't wait long before he heard some movement.
Someone was running through the bamboo forest, and there was even a powerful force sweeping through it.
Looking at the rows of fallen bamboo, Gu An was stunned.
Wasting precious resources.
These people...
Gu An never expected this to happen.
Originally intending to continue waiting, he had no choice but to get up and walk over.
Seeing Gu An, Li Yue exclaimed, "Junior Brother, quickly come and help us!
Junior Brother Xu's hand is already injured. If you don't help block the demon beast, he will surely die."
Gu An stood still.
Seeing this, Li Yue continued, "Junior Brother, we are all fellow disciples. Can you bear to watch us die without helping?"
Boom!
The demon beast's attack came again.
Xu Chenglong spat out a mouthful of blood, looked at Gu An, and pleaded, "Junior Brother, save me! As long as I escape danger, I am willing to give everything."
On the other side was a fairy who looked at Gu An and said, "Junior Brother, quickly find someone to save us."
Gu An looked at the demon beast destroying the bamboo forest and sighed.
Then, he took a step forward and came to Li Yue.
Golden Light Teleportation.
This stunned Li Yue, then she was overjoyed, "Junior Brother is willing to save people? Go block the demon beast, and we'll recover and go get reinforcements to save you."
Gu An calmly looked at the person in front of him and said, "Since we are fellow disciples, why doesn't Senior Sister save people?"
"Isn't there Junior Brother? Junior Brother is a disciple of Heavenly Suspension Peak, a pillar of the sect. Shouldn't you save people?" Li Yue frowned as she looked at Gu An and said, "Go save people quickly."
Gu An reached out and grabbed the other party's shoulder, feeling that there was indeed something protecting them.
But he could grab it.
While Li Yue was shocked, Gu An threw her out.
Bang!
She directly collided with the demon beast.
Seeing the main target, the demon beast didn't hesitate to attack.
Bang!
Bang!!
A scream came.
Then, an umbrella appeared, followed by an iron ball.
Boom!
The magical treasures forced back the demon beast.
However, the demon beast only had anger in its eyes and kept attacking.
"Bitch, what are you still standing there for? Come and block it! You're dead, but you can't stand by and watch us die!" Li Yue angrily looked at Gu An and berated him.
Gu An stood in place and said, "Isn't Senior Sister alone enough?"
"You're courting death, daring to throw Senior Sister out!" Xu Chenglong was furious.
He attacked Gu An, trying to throw Gu An over as well.
Then buy them time.
Gu An coldly looked at the other party, and a golden light flashed.
Suddenly, he appeared in front of Xu Chenglong, then grabbed out with one hand.
Bang!
Due to inertia, Xu Chenglong was grabbed by the neck by Gu An and then pressed against the bamboo on the side.
The other party was shocked, not understanding how he was grabbed.
He was in the late stage of the Golden Core realm, while the person in front of him was only in the early stage of the Golden Core realm.
How could he be capable of this?
Gu An looked at the person in front of him and said in a cold tone, "You were just begging me, and now you want to kill me."
"You... you know who you have offended?" Xu Chenglong gritted his teeth and said.
"A dead person?" Gu An asked.
Xu Chenglong was about to retort when he felt his neck being pinched by a terrifying force.
Crack.
He was horrified to find that he couldn't speak, and his neck seemed to be broken.
The power of the golden core in his body couldn't be mobilized and was crushed by something.
Bang!
Xu Chenglong was stunned, then felt his head seem to fall off.
He seemed...
Was going to die.
With a bang.
He saw his body fall.
Finally, his consciousness began to dissipate.
He never seemed to expect that he would die so suddenly.
The mature fairy who was originally about to come over was stunned.
She was also in the late stage of the Golden Core realm.
Now that Xu Chenglong was dead, she would surely die if she went over.
She hesitated and shouted loudly, "Senior Sister, throw me the spiritual medicine!"
Seeing Xu Chenglong's death, Li Yue was a little shocked, but soon she became angry.
She knew what Le Xiu wanted the spiritual medicine for, so she threw the medicine over without hesitation.
Le Xiu, who received the spiritual medicine, directly looked at Gu An and threw the spiritual medicine over.
Gu An took the spiritual medicine and found that it was a green spiritual herb with a flower on it, which seemed to be immature.
At this time, the demon beast's eyes directly locked on.
Gu An sensed that this demon beast was not simple. He might not be able to kill it in the Nascent Soul stage.
The other party's body was huge, and its aura was thick. Li Yue's attacks failed to break through its defense.
Therefore, when Gu An saw the other party looking over, he threw the spiritual medicine over without hesitation.
The demon beast was stunned, a little unbelievable.
At the same time.
Le Xiu saw Gu An's distraction and stabbed out with a sword.
Gu An grabbed in mid-air.
A broken knife appeared in his hand.
Then罡Qi was blessed.
Pingqiu First Style, Wind Rises.
Clang!
Bang!
The broken knife slashed across the sword in Le Xiu's hand.
Then the knife Qi landed behind.
Setting off a storm.
Leaving a long gully on the ground.
Le Xiu, who was holding the sword, looked at the person in front of her in shock.
The long sword in her hand broke and fell, and she opened her mouth, wanting to say something.
But soon the shock in her eyes was covered by fear.
Several cracks appeared in her body.
Then bang!
The whole person exploded.
Blood splattered everywhere.
Seeing this, Li Yue was dumbfounded.
She looked at Gu An viciously: "You stand idly by while fellow disciples die, and even kill fellow disciples. When I go back this time, you will definitely pay the price.
You, who are extremely sinful, cannot escape the sect's punishment."
Gu An looked at the other party and stepped forward.
"You want to kill me?" Seeing this, Li Yue was suddenly not afraid: "You can't kill me. Who do you think you are?"
Seeing this, Gu An came to the other party and smiled: "If I say I am Zuo Youyan,
Senior Sister, what should I do?"
Hearing this, Li Yue was stunned, and a hint of fear appeared in her eyes, but she still suppressed her fear and said: "Impossible....
Pfft!
Before she could finish her words, a long knife pierced through her defense and pierced through her body.
She looked down and was a little unbelievable.
The feeling of life passing away made her terrified.
Wanting to beg for mercy.
However, she opened her mouth, but couldn't make a sound.
She wanted to say, aren't you a good person?
How can a good person kill me?
You should die for me.
She regretted it, regretting that she shouldn't have come here.
However, all that responded to her was a cold voice: "Be careful in your next life."
Li Yue felt that the other party took away the storage magic weapon on her body.
Turn around and leave.
She felt that she could still live.
However, a sudden roar came.
The demon beast's bloody mouth covered her world.
The fishy and sharp teeth made her despair.
There was no more consciousness after that.
