Chapter 348 Xuantian Sword Upgrade
"Let's go back." Gu Sheng put away the Xuantian Sword and said to the Saint of Yaochi.
The Saint of Yaochi nodded, and the two left Tianjian Mountain together. Back in the Yaochi Palace, the two sat opposite each other. The Saint of Yaochi looked at Gu Sheng, with a curious light in her eyes.
"Gu Sheng, how did you upgrade the Xuantian Sword?" She couldn't help asking.
Gu Sheng smiled slightly and began to talk about his experience in the Fallen Sun Ridge and how to use the Yang Qi and Dragon Qi there to sacrifice the Xuantian Sword.
The Saint of Yaochi listened with relish and admired Gu Sheng even more.
The two chatted for a long time until night fell before they went back to their rooms to rest.
It had been a long time since I saw Su Ling, and Gu Sheng decided to go to Tiandao Sect to see Su Ling.
The next day, when Gu Sheng was about to go out, he happened to meet Ji Yewei.
The two set off together.
"Your family has sent someone to kill me again!"
Gu Sheng couldn't understand why the Ji family would be obsessed with him and must kill him.
"Ah, these old fools in the Ji family are always self-righteous!" Ji Yewei was helpless. In order to stop her from interacting with Gu Sheng, they actually came up with such a despicable thing.
Ji Yewei had cut off contact with Gu Sheng for a long time. When she heard that the Ji family had sent someone to kill Gu Sheng again, she was completely awakened.
Whether she left Gu Sheng or not, the Ji family would send someone to kill him, so why should she suffer for herself? Doing useless work?
The two entered the Tiandao Sect and were welcomed by the Tiandao Sect. Jiang Yichen and Su Ling came to greet them.
The sun penetrated the clouds and fell on the majestic mountain gate of the Tiandao Sect. Gu Sheng and Ji Yewei walked side by side, passed through the solemn mountain gate, and stepped into the holy land of this cultivation world.
"Brother Jiang, Su Ling, long time no see!" Gu Sheng waved and greeted, his face full of deep friendship.
Jiang Yichen smiled slightly, his eyes moved between Gu Sheng and Ji Yewei, and he seemed to see some clues. He said gracefully: "Brother Gu, your coming here really makes our Tiandao Sect shine. Miss Yewei, welcome to Tiandao Sect."
Ji Yewei nodded gracefully in response, her beautiful eyes flashing with curiosity and expectation for the unknown.
Su Ling came up happily, pulled Gu Sheng's sleeve and said: "Gu Sheng, you are finally here, I will take you to see the secret realm of our Tiandao Sect!"
"Okay, that's what I meant." Gu Sheng smiled and responded.
Seeing this, Jiang Yichen said tactfully: "Miss Yewei, if you don't mind, let me take you to visit our Tiandao Sect."
"Thank you, Mr. Jiang." Ji Yewei nodded in thanks and left with Jiang Yichen.
Su Ling took Gu Sheng to another direction, introducing the various wonders and secrets of Tiandao Sect along the way. While the two were chatting and laughing, they had arrived in front of a solitary peak.
This solitary peak is Zhuofeng.
It stands quietly in the clouds and mist, like a mountain stacked up, and like a huge water wave rippling outward, layer upon layer, as if it contains some profound secret technique.
"Gu Sheng, look at this Zhuofeng, it is one of the treasures of our Tiandao Sect." Su Ling pointed to the solitary peak and introduced it.
Gu Sheng stared at Zhuofeng, he could feel the faint charm emanating from the depths of the mountain, and this charm made him yearn for it. He couldn't help but walk towards Zhuofeng, wanting to feel this charm more closely.
Entering the range of Zhuofeng, the charm became more and more obvious. Gu Sheng seemed to be attracted into a mysterious realm. He faintly sensed that this charm seemed to convey some kind of secret technique similar to "repetition".
He immediately sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes to sense it. The surrounding scene seemed to reappear in front of him, layer by layer, like ripples.
This scene was captured by the consciousness of Li Ruoyu, the master of Zhuofeng, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. This master, who usually lives in seclusion, actually appeared in person at this moment and walked to Gu Sheng's side.
"My friend, what do you feel?" Li Ruoyu asked softly.
Gu Sheng opened his eyes, looked at Li Ruoyu, and replied respectfully: "Senior, I seem to feel a repetitive power, it is like ripples, layer by layer, endless."
Li Ruoyu heard this, and a trace of appreciation flashed in his eyes. He nodded and said: "Yes, this is exactly the charm of Zhuofeng. It is rare for you to realize this in such a short time."
Gu Sheng smiled modestly: "Thanks to the senior Zhuofeng, I have this opportunity."
The two smiled at each other, and a tacit understanding flowed between them. Li Ruoyu knew that this young man was not simple, and perhaps he would become the future hope of Tiandao Sect.
Gu Sheng also secretly made up his mind to comprehend this charm and integrate it into his own practice.
He sat cross-legged under Zhuofeng, closed his eyes and continued to comprehend this repeated charm.
Time seemed to stop at this moment, leaving only the mysterious connection between Gu Sheng and Zhuofeng deepening.
Li Ruoyu stood aside and quietly guarded the young man. He knew that the young man's future was limitless.
Perhaps in the near future, he will become a bright new star in the world of cultivation.
At this time, Ji Yewei, accompanied by Jiang Yichen, also visited most of the secret realms of Tiandao Sect. She was shocked by the strength and heritage of Tiandao Sect, and was also happy that Gu Sheng could practice here.
When she learned that Gu Sheng was comprehending under Zhuofeng, she hurried over.
Seeing Gu Sheng closing his eyes and concentrating, she couldn't help but slow down her steps, for fear of disturbing him.
Li Ruoyu saw Ji Yewei coming, smiled and nodded, as a greeting.
Ji Yewei also smiled back, and then stood quietly watching Gu Sheng comprehend the charm.
Time passed little by little, and Gu Sheng seemed to be immersed in a mysterious world.
He felt that the charm of Zhuofeng was constantly repeated, superimposed, then dissipated, repeated again... This process seemed to be endless, but it was also full of wonderful changes.
After an unknown amount of time, Gu Sheng finally opened his eyes. His eyes shone with unprecedented light, as if he had comprehended some profound secret.
"I feel it!" He stood up excitedly and said to Li Ruoyu and Ji Yewei, "I feel the repetitive charm. It is like an eternal cycle, repeating itself, but every time It’s different every time.”
Li Ruoyu smiled and nodded: "Very good, you have initially understood the charm of Zhuofeng. This is a very rare opportunity."
Ji Yewei also stepped forward and asked with concern: "Gu Sheng, how do you feel?"
"I feel very good, as if a new door has been opened." Gu Sheng replied excitedly, "This trip to Tiandao Sect is really worthwhile!"
The three of them looked at each other and smiled, and the harmonious atmosphere seemed to infect everything around them. Li Ruoyu led Gu Sheng, Ji Yewei and Su Ling through the dilapidated mountain gate and entered the depths of Zhuofeng.
There was a "crunch", as if the long-dusted historical door was pushed open, and they arrived at the top of Zhuofeng. Here, several simple thatched huts stand quietly, looking so peaceful and simple.
"This is where Su Ling and I usually live and practice." Li Ruoyu pointed to the hut and said.
Gu Sheng looked around and couldn't help but feel strange: "Why are there only two of you, master and disciple, in such a big Zhuofeng?"
Li Ruoyu sighed, a trace of vicissitudes of life flashed in his eyes: "Zhuofeng was once glorious, but when it comes to me, it is considered to be in decline..."
He looked up to the sky and formed seals with his hands in the void. In an instant, a huge image appeared on the sky, as if a window of time had been opened, showing the grand occasion of Zhuofeng in the past.
In the sky, time goes back to that ancient era. On top of Chou Peak, there are many buildings, carved beams and painted buildings, which are magnificent and magnificent. The disciples were dressed in various colored Taoist robes, practicing swordsmanship, meditating, or exchanging Taoist teachings, creating a picture of the sect's grand practice.
"Look, how prosperous Zhuofeng was back then." Li Ruoyu pointed to the image on the sky, his tone full of nostalgia.
Gu Sheng and others stared at the sky, and saw in the picture the disciples of Zhuofeng flying with swords, casting spells, or competing with each other... it was very lively. At that time, Zhuofeng was indeed a coveted holy land for cultivation.
Good times don't last long. A young man in white clothes suddenly appeared on the screen. His clothes were fluttering and he looked like a fairy, but his eyes exuded a cold black aura. Holding a black light spear in his hand, he carried out a large-scale sweep inside the Zhuofeng Mountain Gate as if he was in an uninhabited land. Wherever he passed, corpses lay everywhere...
"Who is that?!" Ji Yewei exclaimed.
"He was the culprit who ended the prosperity of Zhuofeng." Li Ruoyu's tone became heavier. "That day, Zhuofeng flowed with blood, and countless disciples died tragically under his gun..."
The scene on the sky screen gradually dissipated, but the tragedy and bloodshed still seemed to linger in everyone's minds. Gu Sheng and others were silent, feeling sorry for Zhuofeng's experience.
"Since then, Zhuofeng has been in decline. The disciples have left one after another, leaving me alone to stick here." Li Ruoyu sighed.
"Master, we will revive Zhuofeng!" Su Ling clenched her fists, with a determined light shining in her eyes.
Li Ruoyu touched Su Ling's head lovingly: "Good boy, you are ambitious! But it is not easy to revive Zhuofeng, and we need to work together."
He turned to Gu Sheng and Ji Yewei: "Are you willing to help us?"
"Of course!" Gu Sheng and Ji Yewei said in unison.
Li Ruoyu showed a happy smile: "Okay! With your help, I believe Zhuofeng will rise again!"
The night was hazy and starry. At the top of Clumsy Peak, Li Ruoyu looked at the two young people in front of him, his eyes flashing with expectation and affirmation.
"Gu Sheng, Ye Wei, are you willing to join Zhuofeng and fight alongside us?" His voice floated in the night wind, carrying an indescribable majesty.
Gu Sheng's eyes flashed with determination. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "I feel that I am destined to Zhuofeng. I am willing to become Zhuofeng's registered disciple and contribute to Zhuofeng's future."
Ji Yewei chuckled: "It sounds interesting. I have nothing to do anyway, so just join."
Li Ruoyu nodded, but then he said seriously: "In order to officially join Zhuofeng, you need to pass a test - climb to the top of Zangfeng Peak."
In the night, Zangfeng Peak towers into the clouds, like a sharp sword thrust into the sky. Gu Sheng and Ji Yewei looked at each other and smiled. They knew that this was the beginning of their non-electronic adventure.
The two embarked on the mountain climbing journey and first came to the secret water realm. In front of you is the endless ocean, with rough waves that seem to swallow everything.
"Is this an illusion?" Gu Sheng frowned slightly, but he quickly activated the Great Moon Eye Technique. The illusion in front of him began to shatter, and a teleportation array gradually appeared, "Ye Wei, follow me."
Ji Yewei also felt the fluctuations of the array pattern. She touched the void carefully: "Well, I feel it. Let's go."
After entering the teleportation array, they instantly arrived at the wood secret realm. The towering ancient trees stood like giants, and every leaf exuded the breath of life. But under this peaceful appearance, unknown dangers were hidden.
Suddenly, a lightning bird screamed and swooped down at them, and its speed was so fast that it was astonishing. Gu Sheng used the Nine Swords of Gale, and the sword energy was like a rainbow, piercing the lightning bird. At the same time, he slapped a golden palm and fought fiercely with the lightning bird. Ji Yewei, relying on the vision of the rising moon on the sea, fought wits and courage with a nervous Xiezhi.
After a fierce battle, the two finally found the exit teleportation array and came to the fire secret realm. The flames here were blazing, as if they were going to burn everything to ashes. Gu Sheng used the Nine Swords of Gale, and the sword energy split the flames like a storm. At the same time, he urged the skills, and the golden waves rolled, extinguishing the flames one by one. Ji Yewei also relied on her keen perception to cleverly avoid the attack of the flames.
The secret realms of earth, gold, force and wind are also full of unknowns and dangers. But Gu Sheng and Ji Yewei overcame difficulties again and again with their strength and wisdom. Their figures shuttled through the secret realm, and each time they avoided danger and found the exit.
When they finally climbed to the top of Cangfeng Peak, the dawn of the east had begun to appear. They smiled at each other, and the joy and pride in their hearts were beyond words. They knew that they had passed the assessment of Zhuofeng and became true disciples of Zhuofeng.
"Welcome to Zhuofeng!" Li Ruoyu's voice sounded in their ears, as if with endless majesty and joy.
In the following days, Gu Sheng focused on sensing the charm of Zhuofeng. Half a month later, he thought of a way to quickly perceive the charm of Zhuofeng.
He decided to practice dual cultivation with Su Ling, practice the Jade Girl Heart Sutra, and transform into a virtual space.
At dawn, the top of Zhuofeng was dyed like a poem by the morning glow. Gu Sheng stood on the edge of the cliff, his eyes deep, as if thinking about something important.
"Su Ling, I have an idea that may help me feel Zhuo Feng's charm faster." Gu Sheng turned around and looked at the woman beside him, his eyes flashing with expectation.
Su Ling raised her eyebrows slightly and asked curiously: "Oh? What method, tell me."
Gu Sheng took a deep breath and slowly told his plan: "We can try to practice dual cultivation and practice the Jade Girl Heart Sutra to create a virtual space. In that space, we can get closer to Zhuo Feng's charm and perhaps make a breakthrough."
After hearing this, Su Ling's eyes flashed with surprise, but then nodded: "Since you said so, let's try it." (End of this chapter)
