#225 - He wouldn't pretend to be weak, would he?
Someone was going to find a demon beast and then enter the Sword Immortal's Tomb.
Logically speaking, he didn't need to care.
This book is first published on the entire network by 𝚝 𝚠 𝚔 𝚊 𝚗 . 𝕔 𝚘 𝕞
But they would come to his place first, and then go in.
And the people inside were senior brothers and sisters who took good care of him.
In the sect, the fellow disciples he encountered basically wouldn't care about him.
This time, the senior brothers and sisters were really nice to him.
Of course, they were also nice to others.
They even saved someone like Li Yue twice.
It could be seen that they were indeed good people.
If other people were let in, there would be a lot of danger for them.
"I hope that Senior Brother Lu and the others can come out before they arrive."
"That way, I can try to remind them a bit.
As for the matter of the spiritual herbs.
He'll see if he should subtly hint at it.
If it's easy to expose, then forget it.
Afterwards, Gu An returned to his cave to make sure these people wouldn't bring him big trouble.
Gu An condensed a blood-colored tiger.
Then he headed towards the direction of the demon beast.
He couldn't reach the demon beast's location yet, but he could wait on the only way there.
With that, Gu An no longer hesitated, and instead began to extract bitter cultivation to advance his cultivation.
Gu An felt himself sinking into a dream.
In the dream, he kept cultivating, day after day, year after year.
Decades of time allowed him to have a deep understanding of the Primordial Spirit, and the spiritual energy in his body became more and more agile as the Primordial Spirit solidified and grew.
After a few more years, Gu An felt that his Primordial Spirit had reached a certain point.
He began to break through the bottleneck.
As expected, the breakthrough of the Primordial Spirit was more intense than expected.
Previously, the Primordial Spirit was just a phantom, but now, it seemed to have meridians and blood vessels.
Making the Primordial Spirit more solid.
Mental power increased many times over.
As such, his perception of the surroundings became even stronger.
Especially with the help of the Aura Chapter and the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Chapter.
The foundation became stronger and stronger.
When he opened his eyes, Gu An was quite emotional.
It was as if he had experienced a long period of time.
However, the powerful Primordial Spirit power erupted, and the spiritual energy became more and more agile.
Which also made him very happy.
Mid-stage Primordial Spirit.
He had actually made it.
"Only a few months, and I've advanced from the early stage of the Primordial Spirit to the mid-stage of the Primordial Spirit."
"If I continue to stay here, subsequent advancements will be just as fast."
"How can I maintain my original intention like this?"
The advancement was too fast.
Even someone as strong as Zuo Youyan would need decades to go from the early stage of the Primordial Spirit to the late stage of the Primordial Spirit.
He might only need a few months.
Chu Meng's Primordial Spirit at the age of twenty-four might not be faster than him.
This...
Such an improvement makes me want to find someone to test the power of various spells.
The stronger the strength, the less you need to use your brain.
Just push through all the way.
I'm just afraid of not being strong enough, and then starting to not use my brain.
It's easy to invite disaster.
Gu An sighed.
He decided to continue logging.
But as soon as he came to the ground, his brows furrowed.
The little tiger heard rumbling sounds, someone was fighting.
Gu An synchronized his vision over.
Then, he saw signs of power bombing in the bamboo forest in the distance.
Followed by painful roars.
Boom!
A huge figure swept across the bamboo forest.
Then it began to run.
After waiting for a while, Gu An saw that it was the previous huge demon beast.
It was grabbing the previous spiritual herb, running non-stop.
Two flying swords were chasing behind.
"Evil creature, where do you think you're going to escape?"
Boom!
A powerful sword force fell.
The demon beast suffered a huge injury.
Even the Blood Little Tiger collapsed along with it.
Gu An withdrew his gaze, feeling a little regretful.
The newly condensed blood spirit was gone just like that.
Fortunately, there were no negative effects.
After all, it was just a casually condensed blood spirit, without any power placed in it.
In addition, these two people were not weak, at least they were in the Primordial Spirit realm.
He didn't know which peak they were from.
But...:
Gu An looked ahead, feeling slightly emotional: "It seems to be coming in this direction."
Two Primordial Spirits, not sure if they are in the early or mid-stage.
If it's the late stage...:
How should he deal with it?
He always felt that he was no match.
For safety's sake, Gu An began to familiarize himself with his current realm, and then familiarize himself with the Qi Sea Heavenly Dipper and the Cage Midnight.
Gu An found that those people were getting closer and closer.
Under the moonlight, he saw the demon beast.
It was baring its teeth, and blood was constantly oozing from its body.
Its eyes were filled with anger and fear.
Something was burning between its eyebrows, seemingly running for its life, its speed was many times faster than when it chased Li Yue before.
However, attacks were still coming from behind from time to time.
Causing it to cry out in pain.
In a few breaths, the demon beast escaped over.
And the sword intent from behind followed.
Boom!
Directly cutting down a bamboo forest.
Gu An:
Such terrifying power.
Stronger than his pure mid-stage Primordial Spirit.
"Evil creature, let's see how long you can escape," a man's angry shout came.
The demon beast didn't stop, it glanced at Gu An standing in place, ignored him and continued to flee.
The man and woman who were chasing also saw Gu An.
Although they were a little surprised.
But a Golden Core early stage was not to be feared.
Gu An also saw them.
A man and a woman, a talented man and a beautiful woman.
They both looked to be in their early twenties.
The man was handsome and unrestrained, with a long sword in his hand and a stern sword intent.
The woman's spells surged, and the divine light of her power shone around her.
Like the bright moonlight in the dark night.
The man was in the late stage of the Primordial Spirit, and the woman was in the mid-stage of the Primordial Spirit.
So strong?
For a moment, he was a little nervous.
If the other party stopped and attacked him, then the problem would be serious.
Fortunately, both of them only glanced at him warily, then looked at the cave a few more times, and finally continued to chase the demon beast.
For a time, Gu An hoped that the demon beast could escape further, at least the spiritual herb shouldn't be snatched away by the other party.
If Li Yue hadn't stolen it once beforehand, making it much more vigilant.
These two people would definitely have succeeded already.
Their strength was completely different from that of Li Yue and the others.
Moreover, the demon beast was clearly burning its life to gain a chance to escape.
It wouldn't be able to burn for a few days.
After they left, Gu An finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But soon, a sword came from the direction they disappeared.
Boom!
The sword landed around the sword formation, sealing off the surroundings.
And also trapping Gu An inside, unable to leave, let alone send a message.
The other party didn't seem to want any complications.
They also wanted to ask him about the situation, so they didn't kill him, only trapped him.
"I don't know which sect they are from," Gu An looked at the other party's spirit sword filled with thunder,
Feeling quite emotional.
Logically speaking, such a cultivation level shouldn't be here.
According to the sect's division, at most a Primordial Spirit early stage would bring a Golden Core here.
But these two people came privately, which was a bit against the rules.
Unfortunately, no one here cares.
Gu An didn't dare to think too much, but instead picked up the axe in his hand and began to log.
Although he still felt the immense sword force this time, it was easier than before. It could be imagined that it would take a lot of time to accumulate enough bitter cultivation.
Can the demon beast last this long?
I'm afraid it can't.
Gu An shook his head, stopped thinking too much, and began to log.
After advancing to the late stage of the Primordial Spirit, there's no need to worry.
As bamboo after bamboo fell, Gu An felt that his bones were about to crack.
The suppression of the sword force on him had already reached the point where it was difficult for him to move.
Finally, after dawn, Gu An was forced to rest.
In the evening, he woke up again.
Logging.
The sword force followed.
The axe in his hand became heavier and heavier, and there was even a mountain suppressing his shoulders.
Tonight, these sword intents and sword forces kept invading his body.
His Qi Sea Heavenly罡 was contending with it, and his body was already filled with sword intent "fragments."
The quantity was too great.
Even the Qi Sea Heavenly罡 found it difficult to completely dissolve.
In the middle of the night.
Gu An once again collapsed to the ground.
His body couldn't bear it anymore.
At this moment, he was drenched in sweat, and he felt that even the sweat flowing out had traces of sword intent.
If this continued, his body would not be able to withstand it.
Forcibly logging without comprehending sword intent had great side effects.
It was even larger than those trees in the sect.
Moreover, even the axe was about to break.
Fortunately, there were many axes.
If it didn't work, he could only use knives and swords.
He was just afraid that he would chop it off all at once, and he wouldn't have time to absorb the numerical value.
It would be a waste.
Logging required doing it little by little, it couldn't be too sharp, nor too dull.
It was best to use a specially made axe.
If it was too sharp and combined with术法, although it could be cut off at once.
But no matter how much you cut, it would be useless.
There was no warmth flowing from the years and spiritual energy.
While resting, Gu An saw that the Ring of Fate had defense.
It seemed that it was because he had encountered those two people.
[Yesterday at dawn, Wei Wen discovered you, which surprised him a bit. They had secretly come from other places for the sake of the Sword Immortal inheritance. They had learned from some ancient books that the Sword Immortal inheritance here was somewhat extraordinary.
It was not a Sword Immortal in name only, but a true Sword Immortal, which contained the Sword Immortal's sword path, and also the Sword Immortal's spiritual sword with a sword spirit. Only spiritual herbs could get close without being affected.
But after all, they came secretly. Since you saw them, they naturally had to kill you to silence you.
But you are here, which means you have a certain understanding of this place. After a second thought, they plan to trap you here.
After they get the things, it will be time to come over and question you, and then kill you.
Naturally, the fact that they came here cannot be known to others. They have already killed many people along the way.
They used Zuo Youyan's name, hoping to frame him.
In the evening, they forced the monster into a lake, but unfortunately, the other party used the monsters in the lake to escape again.
But they were cursed by them, and they will be able to track them down in up to three days.]
Gu An looked at the feedback and was a little surprised.
The other party had indeed come secretly, and if they came secretly, naturally they couldn't be discovered by others. If they encountered someone, they had to kill them.
Otherwise, if the rules were broken, they would naturally be punished.
No one likes to cause trouble for themselves.
And throwing all the murders to Zuo Youyan was also a good choice.
After all, Zuo Youyan was also a traitor, and he was very powerful.
He had already carried many lives on his back before, and now he was killing wantonly here, which was also reasonable.
And these were not the most important things, the words "kill to silence" were the most shocking.
"One is in the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and the other is in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul realm."
"The probability of winning against them head-on is not high."
"If I sneak attack, there should be a certain chance, but it's best to do it one by one."
Gu An was silent for a moment, deciding to improve his Ground Shrinking Golden Light first.
At least he could sneak attack.
Even if he lost, he could escape.
The other side of the bamboo forest.
Wei Wen frowned as he looked ahead and said: "This monster has a very hard life. It is indeed not easy to obtain the inheritance.
The preparation is not sufficient enough.
I thought it was just a monster with the strength of the early Nascent Soul realm, but I didn't expect so many trump cards.
And so vigilant.
As soon as we appeared, it directly took the things and ran away.
It didn't even fight us."
"The monster is hiding. Although we can find it, it will take some time." The woman on the side sighed and said:
"If we had killed it with one blow before, we wouldn't have to be so troublesome."
Speaking, she seemed to think of something and said: "Did Senior Brother see that person?"
"I saw him. My sword trapped him, but it was just a simple trap." Wei Wen said.
"Does Senior Brother think that he will succeed in breaking the seal desperately?" the woman asked.
Her name was Nalan Lin, and she was in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
She came secretly with Wei Wen.
She was a member of the Azure City Sect.
So they couldn't be discovered by others, otherwise there would be big trouble.
They might not even be able to leave the Azure Wood Sect alive.
So none of the people who saw them could be left alive.
"It's hard to say, let's see if he has any other treasures on him." Wei Wen said.
"It seems to be a hidden danger." Nalan Lin thought for a moment and said: "Senior Brother, continue to pursue the monster. I'll go back and deal with it.
By the way, I'll ask him about the general situation and take the opportunity to leave Zuo Youyan's traces."
Wei Wen thought for a moment and said: "Alright, but there is a sword formation over there. Try to gain his trust and then let him come out on his own.
That way, you won't alarm the owner of the sword formation.
In addition, you need to ask clearly about the situation inside, how many people have entered the cave.
How many people have discovered this place,
Be clean and neat when silencing him, don't torture him.
And don't be frivolous, so as not to have too many dreams at night."
Nalan Lin smiled and said: "Is Senior Brother still not at ease with me? I won't cause trouble for myself.
After all, if we are not careful, we will not be able to leave here alive.
We are here to find opportunities, not to die."
Saying that, she bid farewell to Wei Wen and went to Gu An's side.
If she really couldn't trick Gu An away from the sword formation, she would directly destroy the sword formation and then kill him.
Then she would wait around to determine how many people came out of it.
Whether to kill or keep them would depend on the situation.
At this time, Gu An was sitting cross-legged. His condition was not very good now.
But he still wanted to log.
After all, the術法 was only one or two bamboos away.
But just as he was logging, he suddenly noticed someone coming this way.
Which surprised him a bit.
Using the Blood Spirit to take a look, it was the woman from before.
Middle stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
"Is the kill-to-silence here?"
Gu An thought of this immediately.
Because they couldn't directly take down the monster, they took the time to send someone to kill him to silence him.
So as to avoid any accidents on his side.
Especially since there are still people in the Sword Immortal's house, if the people inside come out.
Then things will become troublesome.
Thinking of this, Gu An put away his axe.
Took out the old long knife given by his senior brother.
This knife was still handy.
"Middle stage of the Nascent Soul realm, the same realm as me, but I have just entered this realm."
"I wonder how much chance I have of winning if I fight her."
The only thing that could be used was that the other party did not know his cultivation level.
So finding an opportunity to directly sneak attack was the most stable.
A moment later, Gu An took the long knife in his hand and pretended to look at the seal of the long sword, not knowing what to do.
Let the other party confirm that his cultivation level was average and his magic weapon was average, then the success rate of the sneak attack would be high.
"What is this Junior Brother doing?" Nalan Lin asked curiously as she looked at Gu An.
Saying that, she took away the sword smoothly.
Originally, she wanted to trick people out, but now it seems that the other party was outside the sword formation.
Seeing that she came, he didn't retreat.
Was it that easy?
Was the other party stupid?
Could there be fraud?
No, let's test it first.
Thinking this way, she took advantage of the moment when Gu An was about to speak and used the Flame Art.
Eight rays of fire light around him gathered like swimming dragons.
Heading straight for Gu An.
An early stage Golden Core cultivator would die directly in her attack.
Gu An: "???"
