Chapter 134 Seven-aperture Spirit Stone
Gu Mingchuan looked at the destructive light and felt as if the space was locked. There was no escape or avoidance. A mysterious force descended and was about to move him out.
"You forced me to do this."
He spoke softly, and the Acacia Sword in his hand slowly lit up with a light, which became brighter and brighter, instantly shattering the space lock.
When facing enemies before, he only used one-fifth of his strength, because he felt that using the other fourth would be too much of an abuse.
Since Yin Shengxue has no moral principles and uses the power of peerless magic weapons to suppress him, he has nothing to fear from him.
Although Gu Mingchuan was unable to use the original power of the Acacia Sword, he could still unleash some of its true power by using his own true essence as energy.
The peerless divine weapon is not something that can be controlled by a warrior in the Shenzang realm.
Only when one reaches the Dharma Image Realm and uses magic power to drive it, can the power of the peerless divine weapon be truly unleashed.
Gu Mingchuan poured all the power of the five attributes that formed a balance in his body into the Acacia Sword. Suddenly, a lingering sword intent broke through the air and slashed towards the light.
When the two sword intentions collided with each other, he felt that his whole body was engulfed by the dazzling light.
On the other side, Yin Shengxue felt a mournful cry coming from the Hanguang Sword, and his whole body shook violently. He cried out in a lost voice, "How is this possible?"
The next moment, she was moved away and appeared next to the leader of the Canghai Sect.
Her appearance naturally attracted the attention of countless people.
She was bleeding from the corner of her mouth, and a faint streak of blood appeared on her left cheek. Her face was full of shock and disbelief.
"Even she was defeated?"
"Who won her?"
"Is the Grandmaster Ranking going to change?"
……
Yin Shengxue was number one on the Grandmaster list, and even she was defeated. It was really unbelievable.
Where on earth did a powerful person in the Shenzang realm come from, who even Yu Mengzhu and Yin Shengxue are no match for?
……
Among the people present, perhaps only one person knew.
Yan Feng looked at the devastated Yin Shengxue with a complicated look in his eyes, thinking, "I didn't expect that he actually did it."
To be honest, he didn't quite believe at first that this kid could get the Seven-Aperture Spirit Stone.
He was very displeased with this young man who practiced the Xuanming Sect's magic skills. If it weren't for his adoptive father's order, he would never save this man.
Facts have proved that his adoptive father was right. This kid actually defeated Yu Mengzhu and Yin Shengxue and won the Seven-Aperture Spirit Stone.
This kid's strength is so terrifying. When he breaks through to the Dharma Image Realm in the future, how powerful will he be?
Maybe, he can really fulfill his adoptive father's lifelong wish!
……
In the life palace.
Gu Mingchuan looked down at a wound on his chest, blood gushing out.
The sword intent at the wound was causing damage, preventing it from healing on its own.
He tried, but even with the true energy in his body, he still couldn't dispel the sword intent.
Because this sword intent does not belong to any of the five elements.
Suddenly, an old voice sounded in his ears, "Thank you for showing mercy and not harming the life of my great-granddaughter."
Gu Mingchuan looked up and found that he had left the "Fate Palace" at some point and came to the top of the mountain. Judging from the scenery here, it should be a peak of Cangyun Mountain.
In front of me, an old Taoist was sitting on a huge rock hammering a fishing rod.
He knew that this person was the owner of the Fate Palace just now, a strong man in the Fate Palace Realm of the Canghai Sect. He bowed respectfully and said, "Junior Chunyang, greetings to the senior."
The old Taoist said generously, "The Five Elements Sect is indeed a sacred place for martial arts. You are the best of this generation. You are so young, yet you have such strength. I originally thought that our martial arts were not inferior to those of the five sacred places back then, but now it seems that we are still far behind."
Gu Mingchuan didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Although he was practicing "The Innate Five Elements", he was not really a disciple of the Five Elements Sect.
This was the first time he heard this name today.
All I can say is, "Senior, you are too kind. I am also a person who has had some coincidences and adventures, so my skills are far superior to others."
The old Taoist turned his head and looked at him, saying, "You are honest. I can see that you are an anomaly. Now, the Changsheng Sect and the Xuanming Sect have emerged one after another. What do you think of this?"
Gu Mingchuan only said eight words, "When a country is about to fall into chaos, evil will surely arise."
The old Taoist shook his head and said, "Don't just follow the crowd. Although the woman in the capital of the gods killed many people in the court, she has a firm control over the local area. There has been no chaos in the local area for more than ten years. The affairs of the Changsheng Sect and the Xuanming Sect cannot be blamed on her."
Gu Mingchuan knew that the woman he was talking about was probably the Queen Mother. He felt a little strange because this was the first time he heard someone speak positively about the Queen Mother.
In the past, I always heard her called "the Demon Queen".
He asked modestly, "Why is that?"
"In ancient times, a sage once said that a saint would appear every 500 years. Although this statement is exaggerated, it is not without reason. It has been 500 years since Emperor Shang died. The cycle of heaven and earth has changed. Someone should make up for the corner of heaven that was destroyed by Emperor Shang. Therefore, the Changsheng Sect and the Xuanming Sect came into being one after another, and anomalies like you also appeared."
Gu Mingchuan was just wondering why this senior was telling him all this when he saw him take something out of his arms and said, "This is your trophy."
It was a piece of stone with seven holes on it, like a living thing. With every breath, the white jade-like stone was beating slightly.
"Thank you, senior."
Gu Mingchuan took it.
The old Taoist said, "This is what you deserve."
Gu Mingchuan smiled, but of course he didn't think that this was what he deserved.
Are you kidding? The fight just now took place at someone else's home court. As long as this old man made a little move, transferred him away in advance, and announced that Yin Shengxue was the winner, where could he go to complain?
There has never been true fairness in this world.
It was quite rare that this old Taoist could resist intervening and watch his disciples being defeated by him.
The old Taoist said, "In the future, if my great-granddaughter wants to cause you trouble, please bear with her and don't take it to heart."
The implication is that Yin Shengxue must be unwilling to accept her defeat this time and will go looking for him again in the future.
Gu Mingchuan said, "I think Miss Yin is a reasonable person. When she comes to spar with me in the future, she will definitely stop at the right time."
The old Taoist was very satisfied with his statement and said, "Go ahead, your brother is still waiting for you."
Gu Mingchuan left immediately.
After he left, a man who looked like a Taoist priest came over and said respectfully, "Master, are you just going to let him go like this?" The old Taoist priest stroked his beard, smiled slightly, and said, "Don't worry, we'll see each other again soon."
The Taoist seemed to understand and was surprised. "You mean, that one?"
Seeing that the master smiled but did not answer, he said anxiously, "Master, that person is not someone you can easily mess with... Why would you do that for a——"
Wow.
The Taoist priest pulled out his rod and caught another big golden fish. He said proudly, "How can you catch a big fish without a heavy bait?"
……
At this time, the Canghai Sect also received the news, and the leader of the Canghai Sect personally announced, "The final winner of this 100-year appointment is——"
He paused for a moment, his eyes fell on Yan Feng, and then he said, "Tianxia Tower, Chunyang!"
For a moment, the entire martial arts arena was in an uproar.
"When did Tianxialou produce such a talented master?"
"Chun Yang? I've never heard of this name."
"What about others?"
……
There were already quite a few people surrounding Yan Feng, both known and unknown, all of them were asking about this man named Chunyang who had suddenly appeared.
Soon, everyone knew that Chunyang was Yan Qing’s junior brother and Yan Feng’s uncle.
This is an event that only happens once every century.
Not only young talents from martial arts families came to participate, but also young masters from the mysterious royal family, military, Demon Suppression Bureau and other places.
Many people know that it is almost impossible to win the Seven Aperture Spirit Stone, but they still come to participate, just wanting to compete with other young talents.
Who would have thought that in the end, such a big upset would happen.
A guy whose name no one had ever heard of actually defeated Yu Mengzhu and Yin Shengxue and took away the Seven-Aperture Spirit Stone.
What’s even more infuriating is that he also took away Yu Mengzhu’s Acacia Sword.
Everyone waited and waited, but the guy named Chunyang never showed up.
Yan Feng had already guessed that this kid must have abandoned him and gone back alone. He cursed in his heart, but he had to deal with those people and could not extricate himself.
Those who can come to participate in the Hundred Years' Appointment are all famous families and sects. Tianxialou is open to do business, so if you can avoid offending anyone, you naturally cannot offend them casually.
……
Gu Mingchuan was very fast and returned to Tianxia Building in a short time. He first went to meet Shangguan Yu and Gong Miaomiao.
Shangguan Yu and the others were obviously relieved to see him return safely.
"Love Sword?"
Soon, Shangguan Yu noticed the sword in his hand and was startled. She had dealt with the three women of the same name as her, so she could naturally recognize this sword.
Gu Mingchuan said, “Today, thanks to Miss Yu for lending me this sword, otherwise, it would take a lot of effort to defeat Yin Shengxue.
Shangguan Yu asked, "Did she lend you this sword?"
"Yes." Gu Mingchuan said, "In a few days, when the storm has died down, I will go find her and return the sword. Okay, I'll go see Senior Yan."
Finished talking and left.
Leaving behind Shangguan Yu and Gong Miaomiao.
Gong Miaomiao felt that Sister Shangguan was a little strange today, and asked, "Is there anything wrong with the sword?"
She usually only likes to read books and is not very interested in rumors in the martial arts world. She has never seen Yu Mengzhu before and knows nothing about the Acacia Sword.
Shangguan Yu shook his head and said, "No."
……
Gu Mingchuan came to Yan Qing's room, knocked on the door and said, "Senior, I have obtained the Seven Aperture Spirit Stone."
Yan Qing was sitting cross-legged on the ground. He opened his eyes and said with some relief, "You really didn't let me down."
"Now, can you tell me, Senior?"
"No hurry, wait until you open the divine treasure of your body."
"It's easy."
Gu Mingchuan didn't waste any words. He sat cross-legged on the ground and added 3.2 billion ambition points to the "Vajra Indestructible Divine Art" in one breath, maxing out his proficiency.
Then, stick the Seven-Aperture Spirit Stone on the center of your eyebrows.
Suddenly, he felt that he had an extra body with seven orifices. Each orifice could be connected to a strange place, continuously absorbing power from that world.
Gu Mingchuan could even distinguish the attributes of those forces, which were gold, wood, water, fire, earth, space, and time.
This body, free from the shackles and restrictions of the human body, has an upper limit that is unknown.
With every breath, the body grows stronger.
Unfortunately, no matter how powerful it is, this body is still missing something. It has no hands or feet and cannot move.
Gu Mingchuan suddenly felt that this seven-orifice spirit stone was clearly nurturing a living being. As long as it was given enough time, perhaps an innate god would be born.
Gradually, his two bodies began to merge. Suddenly, the connection between the other body and the other space became weaker and weaker, and the power transmitted became less and less.
I do not know how long it has been.
The two bodies finally merged into one, but his connection with the seven strange spaces had become extremely weak, intermittent, and almost broken.
Boom!
As soon as Gu Mingchuan moved, he felt the explosive power in his body.
The eighth level of the Divine Hidden Realm of the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art has been completed!
The foundation of his immortal body has finally been laid. Once he breaks through to the Tribulation Breaking Realm, he will be able to cultivate an immortal body.
Gu Mingchuan opened his eyes and saw Yan Qing still sitting cross-legged there. He was moved and realized that it took him ten days to make this breakthrough.
He stood up and bowed deeply, "Thank you for protecting me, Senior."
Yan Qing smiled slightly, but soon became serious again and said, "We don't have much time. Sit down and listen to me."
Seeing how serious he was, Gu Mingchuan sat down again.
