#198 - Brother, I am guilty.
Taking a deep breath, Gu An waited for the Blood Demon God Lord to fall asleep.
At night, seeing that the time was almost right.
Gu An got up and returned to Thousand Dust Peak.
Coming back, he saw that the Blood Demon God Lord was indeed not awake.
Thus, he took out his axe and continued to chop wood.
Remember the first website domain 𝕥𝕨𝕜𝕒𝕟.𝕔𝕠𝕞
Two more times, and he couldn't come anymore.
It was about to break.
Calculating, this divine tree could probably fill his Art power three more times.
The last time must be reserved, waiting for the divine tree to recover.
In the middle of the night, Gu An finally finished logging.
Taking the opportunity to look at the panel.
【Name: Gu An】
【Cultivation: Golden Core Completion】
【State: Poisoned】
【Art Power: 50/50】
【Hard Cultivation: 100/100】
【Ring of Fate】
He could improve and temper himself again.
The previous two temperings had already made him much stronger.
And now, one more time.
Below the Primordial Spirit, did he still have opponents?
But constantly tempering, he didn't know how strong he was at all.
Thinking carefully, there seemed to be no fellow disciples at the Golden Core Completion stage to spar with.
Without thinking more, Gu An packed up and prepared to go back.
He had to leave before the Blood Demon God Lord woke up, otherwise it would be very noisy.
But while flying on his sword halfway, the Ring of Fate moved.
【Yesterday noon, Luo Yutong concealed her identity and purchased the layout of Peak Beyond Peak, learned of your residence, and decided to go to your residence tonight to find you, to see if the Blood Orb key on your body has been extracted.
If it wasn't, she would take back the things, and if it was, that would be even better, asking you what exactly happened, who did it, and whether it was related to the missing Lou Jin and the other person.
If that's the case, wouldn't it be better to retrieve the things they got.
But because of serious injuries, she didn't dare to mess around, so she could only lie in ambush at your residence at night, and had to leave before dawn, otherwise it would be easily discovered.】
Gu An's figure flying on the sword paused.
This was yesterday's message, which meant that Luo Yutong was now in his residence at Peak Beyond Peak.
Waiting to ambush him?
In an instant, Gu An was filled with emotions.
He almost fell into the ambush.
Sometimes luck is really the key.
Luo Yutong was seriously injured, he didn't know how much strength she still had.
But Gu An didn't dare to fight her head-on either.
Sighing, he could only turn back and head to his residence at Thousand Dust Peak.
He didn't know when the other party would come here to ambush him.
The formation here was set up by Chu Meng, which was not bad.
Then he set up some simple talismans, and began to extract Art power.
This time, he still had to improve the Qi Sea Heavenly罡.
This improvement would make the Qi Sea Heavenly罡 much stronger.
And he couldn't waste it anymore.
As long as the Qi Sea Heavenly罡 reached the ninth level.
Then he could achieve the Primordial Spirit at any time, or at least learn the Blood Transformation Great Art to advance to the Primordial Spirit.
It was a way out.
After confirming that there was no problem, Gu An began to extract the value.
The dream started again.
It was still a long time of accumulation.
Day and night alternated, seasons changed.
Perhaps it was decades or perhaps it was a hundred years.
Gu An felt that the 罡 Qi in the Qi Sea, like water, was becoming more and more abundant.
Finally filled the Qi Sea.
There were more and more ice slags.
Thus, Gu An opened his eyes.
He came to the courtyard and used the Qi Sea罡 Qi.
An invisible explosion appeared, and the space seemed to vibrate a few times.
Thus, Gu An's meridians were tempered.
The ice slags condensed by the 罡 Qi became more and more obvious.
Then the Qi Sea Heavenly罡 was mobilized, and the long knife in his hand was pulled out.
罡 Qi covered the knife.
Thus, Gu An gently swiped towards the water flow.
In an instant, the water flow was cut off.
The neat fault made Gu An surprised.
But soon, the water flow recovered.
"It's really amazing."
The third volume of Qi Sea Heavenly罡 was more powerful than expected.
If he could suppress his peers before, now it could be said to be a bit of crushing.
Not including other Art power, but relying solely on Qi Sea Heavenly罡.
Gu An looked at the knife and said with some emotion: "In this way, I am a natural swordsman or knife wielder."
Qi Sea Heavenly罡 combined with swords and knives, the combat power improvement was much greater than boxing.
"Could it be that I have to learn the knife in the future?"
After all, swords are too expensive.
But knives are sometimes not as satisfying as fists,
Without thinking much, the current self has nothing to dislike, whichever is stronger, learn whichever.
Stable logging is the key.
After that, he began to temper his cultivation, because he was also a body cultivator, tempering would strengthen the power of the five internal organs.
The Innate Strength was extremely huge.
It can be said that the more tempered, the more pure and heavy the power.
Perhaps it was not so vast, but a trace of power would be like a knife, cutting off the previous power.
A drop of water is like a knife.
By the end of the tempering, Gu An increasingly understood his power.
It seemed that he could control it better.
Every move and every style was like Art power, with amazing power.
Thus, Gu An no longer hesitated and continued to chop wood.
He could chop for the last time.
Continue logging.
The more he chopped wood, Gu An felt a warm current constantly appearing in his body.
Art power plus one.
Hard cultivation plus one.
The change in numbers made people feel comfortable.
【Art Power: 6/50】
【Art Power: 8/50】
【Art Power: 12/50】
【Hard Cultivation: 14/100】
The more Gu An chopped wood, the more he found that hard cultivation was faster than Art power.
That is to say, the speed of Art power accumulation was slower again.
Fortunately, the difference was not very big.
In the afternoon.
Gu An had a feeling that the Blood Demon God Lord was about to wake up.
Continue logging.
After a cup of tea.
But after Art power jumped from 49 to 50.
Gu An put away his things and turned into golden light to leave.
A moment later.
The tree emitted light.
A scream was deafening.
A miserable cry, moving, as if someone had exterminated his entire family.
Then there was crying and begging.
Gu An didn't listen, but returned to Peak Beyond Peak as soon as possible.
But he didn't dare to return to his residence at will, but observed for a long time before entering.
The formation showed that someone had indeed entered.
Someone also left.
The other party swaggered, without any scruples.
"Really look down on people."
Thus, Gu An checked again.
After confirming that there was no one, he set up some talismans and began to meditate to improve the Qi Sea Heavenly罡.
Dealing with a strong person like Luo Yutong, improving other Art power was of little significance.
So he should improve the Qi Sea Heavenly罡 first, and then advance to the Primordial Spirit.
He had also been investigating the Evergreen Sect recently, but he didn't know when there would be a result.
The Qi Sea Heavenly罡 improvement went smoothly.
The other people in the second team were thinking about the mission charter, Gu An didn't look for them.
But went to chop wood.
Now the divine tree could not be chopped, he could only rely on Blood God Wood or Heart-Eating Wood.
Heart-Eating Wood used to take a month, but now it may take two months.
With the improvement of Art power, the Art power value became more and more difficult to obtain.
In the evening.
Gu An was worried that Luo Yutong would go to his residence again.
So he put down his axe and went to the inner gate.
He didn't return to the divine tree immediately.
But sat by the relatively deserted Thousand Peak River.
Occasionally changing positions, and then looking at the Qi Breath Chapter.
The more you read, the more you can understand, and usually comprehending it can save you an improvement.
And no matter how it is improved, the specific content must be understood.
Understanding it thoroughly is your own.
Otherwise, you just learn it, and you can't really make it your own.
As time passed, Gu An sensed the reaction of the Ring of Fate.
Here it comes again.
Sure enough, it was still Luo Yutong.
【Yesterday at dawn, Luo Yutong waited at your residence for a long time without waiting for you, wanting to search but not knowing where you were, in order to accurately and quickly find you, she left ashes in the house, as long as you come back, the ashes will remain on you, letting her know where you are.】
As long as you don't enter the water, you won't escape her pursuit.
Not seeing you only makes her feel more that you're suspicious; she'll catch you first and then talk. ]
Gu An's pupils shrank the instant he saw this.
An inexplicable chill appeared behind him.
Without the slightest hesitation, he took off his clothes and tied them to his spiritual sword.
Then, using a spell, he propelled the spiritual sword, throwing it out along the upstream.
Immediately afterward, he jumped into the Thousand Peak River.
Then, he restrained his aura, submerged himself in the river mud, and concealed himself.
He didn't dare to move rashly.
He also wanted to go upstream or downstream with the river current.
But who could know whether the other party would come from upstream or downstream?
This was a river; once the other party knew he was by the river, they would definitely be prepared.
So, he shouldn't move and should wait quietly.
However, he wasn't sure if his current Aura Concealment Technique could perfectly evade detection; after all, the other party was a powerhouse above the Golden Core stage.
But the other party had suffered severe injuries, so Gu An could only take a gamble.
The Golden Light Escape was always ready; if anything was amiss, he would run to a crowded place.
As time passed, Gu An could even hear his own heartbeat.
Half an hour later.
A figure landed on the riverbank, holding a spiritual sword in her hand, with clothes on the sword.
"Found it?" She looked left and right:
"Hiding in the river?"
Boom!
Suddenly, Gu An sensed that a pit had been blasted out of the ground beside him.
River water surged in all directions.
For a moment, his heart leaped into his throat.
But he still didn't dare to move.
"Then I'll flatten this entire area and see," a low voice transmitted.
Even Gu An, who was in the water, heard it.
The other party was doing it on purpose.
Gu An still didn't move.
He didn't believe the other party would be so reckless.
After all, this was within the sect; once discovered, she wouldn't be able to escape.
However, the booming sound came again.
The aftershock made him uncomfortable and even shook his strength.
If it weren't for the Aura Concealment Technique and his accomplishments in it,
his aura would have been triggered, and he would have been discovered.
This woman was nominally bombing, but in reality, she was agitating people's physical strength.
A double blow of physical and psychological attacks.
She had too many schemes.
Someone like himself, who only knew how to use brute force, could easily be exploited.
He had to be more vigilant in the future.
After a while, the other party left.
However, Gu An still didn't dare to come out.
Sure enough, the other party came again before long.
After that, she left again, but Gu An still didn't dare to come out.
He was afraid the other party would return.
Until dawn, the other party never appeared again, but Gu An still didn't dare to come out.
He decided to wait until noon before coming out.
At noon, after confirming that someone was passing by nearby,
Gu An finally emerged from the water.
As soon as he appeared, he used a spell to remove the water stains and dirt from his body.
Then, he put on his clothes and walked out.
The crisis brought by Luo Yutong was greater than expected.
Now that he had discovered her, her actions would be more cautious.
He wouldn't be able to defend against her.
There was only a thief for a thousand days; there was no defending against a thief for a thousand days.
He could defend against her for one day, but he definitely couldn't defend against her for three or five days.
He would definitely fall into her hands.
As expected, anything like the Divine Tree that far exceeded his level was dangerous once he got involved.
After tidying up his clothes, Gu An came to the Law Enforcement Hall again.
It was still the same front desk fairy.
"Junior Brother, what brings you here this time?" The front desk fairy, with her sweet appearance, asked with a smile.
"I wonder if Senior Brother Dugu is in?" Gu An asked.
"Yes, I'll go find him." The front desk fairy immediately nodded.
Dugu Jing walked out.
The two of them came outside again.
"Junior Brother, what brings you here?" Dugu Jing asked.
"Senior Brother, do you still want to capture that demonic woman from the Demonic Path?" Gu An didn't ask for help.
It was difficult to ask for help.
He just wanted to ask if the other party wanted to make a contribution.
The same thing, if said incorrectly, could put him in a passive state.
Dugu Jing looked at Gu An meaningfully and said, "She went to find you?"
Gu An nodded: "Yes, recently people have appeared in my courtyard, and they have even left some means behind.
It should be her; if I hadn't gone out, I would have already met with misfortune."
"No clear evidence?" Dugu Jing asked.
Gu An shook his head.
He was a little worried that the other party would directly refuse.
Then he would be isolated and helpless.
It would be difficult to restrain that Luo Yutong.
If they kicked him when he was down at this time, it would be a fatal blow.
But even in despair, Gu An was mentally prepared.
Along the way, he had done things that others didn't dare to do and obtained benefits that others didn't dare to obtain.
If it were someone else, they might have died in the sect.
But he had survived.
Therefore, he had offended countless people.
It was common to stand idly by and not offer help.
If it happened, he would accept it.
But the desire to survive wouldn't stop.
Dugu Jing looked at Gu An and smiled:
"This person is of great use to us; if there is news, we will naturally capture her, but if these two days pass and nothing is found, we won't send anyone out if Junior Brother comes again.
Has Junior Brother thought it through?"
Gu An understood that he only had one chance.
But he wasn't sure if the other party would come.
However, Dugu Jing said two days.
Tonight at midnight, he could still get feedback from the Ring of Destiny.
There was a certain possibility of knowing her whereabouts.
Thus, Gu An nodded and said, "I understand."
"Very well, tonight you can stay in Peak Outside of Peaks; if someone comes in, we will take action," Dugu Jing nodded.
Gu An respectfully bowed: "If something is discovered, then it will all be Senior Brother's credit; if not, then it will be because I, Junior Brother, falsely reported the information."
Dugu Jing looked at Gu An and didn't speak.
Afterward, Gu An left the Law Enforcement Hall.
He came to his residence on Thousand Dust Peak.
He needed to wait for the Blood Demon Divine Lord to wake up and ask if there was a way to deal with it.
In the afternoon.
He indeed felt that the Blood Demon Divine Lord was about to awaken.
Soon, Gu An heard the sound of weeping.
"Big Brother, our Divine Tree has been chopped beyond recognition!" the Blood Demon Divine Lord wailed.
Gu An nodded: "I know, I chopped it."
Hearing this, the Blood Demon Divine Lord was stunned for a moment, and then he calmed down.
While Gu An was thinking about how to start the conversation, the Blood Demon Divine Lord sent out a low voice: "Big Brother, I am guilty; I deceived you; I left a backup plan in the seal; I wanted you to cultivate the Blood Transformation Great Art in order to recover myself.
I also taught you an sealing method that you can't learn; that sealing method is impossible to master; even if you learn it, you can only reach the initial level and can't achieve great success.
I was wrong; I secretly even cursed you, Big Brother, and thought about becoming Big Brother myself in the future.
I was wrong; I will never dare to do it again; I will definitely follow Big Brother wholeheartedly in the future and will never dare to have any second thoughts."
Gu An didn't feel the slightest ripple in his heart as he listened to these words.
Perhaps it was because he didn't care what kind of mentality the other party had,
As for the sealing method, he had learned it.
It was indeed a good thing.
Even the Blood Fiend Great Shift was a good thing.
It could extract people's blood; it wasn't as bad as he thought.
Of course, the most important thing was that his life was in danger at any time.
He wasn't in the mood to care about these things; he needed to think of a way.
Seeing that the sky was no longer bright, Gu An cut to the chase and said, "If someone whose cultivation is a major realm higher than mine targets me, how should I deal with it?"
* * * * * *
It was discovered that there were only a few monthly tickets away from the top 500 monthly tickets.
Then, by the way, ask for a monthly ticket and squeeze into the top 500.
Thanks.
