The next day, noon.

Tongfu Inn, second floor.

Gu Shen sat cross-legged on the bed and performed the "Nine Transformations Gong". It was as if a vast ocean was roaring and surging in his Dantian and meridians.

"That layer of shackles is already very weak. You can try to break through."

Gu Shen's current accumulation is very strong. Even if he fails to pass the test, he will not be too damaged. He can give it a try.

With the decision made, Gu Shen began to try to break through.

Accelerate the operation of "Nine Turns Skill" with all your strength, and the surging mana rushes towards the barrier blocking the front.

boom!
The outside world couldn't hear it, but there was a terrifying explosion in Gu Shen's dantian, as if the world was opening up.

Gu Shen closed his eyes tightly and frowned slightly.

boom!
boom!
boom!
There were violent impacts again and again, but the thin barrier held on tenaciously.

A quarter of an hour later.

Gu Shen slowly opened his eyes, and a stream of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

"Or not."

He raised his hand to wipe away the blood from the corner of his mouth. He was only slightly injured, and it healed after a week of mana circulating around his body.

"It is indeed the watershed that divides the Holy Lord level and the Giant level. The difficulty of breaking through is much more difficult than the previous two times."

Although this breakthrough failed, it made Gu Shen yearn for and look forward to the Holy Lord level after the breakthrough.

The greater the difficulty of the breakthrough, the greater the improvement after a successful breakthrough.

"I failed this time, but I can feel that the barrier is also struggling to hold on. It is not far from breaking through to the fourth level of Mahayana."

By running the "Nine Turns Gong" along the meridians, the injuries sustained due to the breakthrough were instantly healed.

After adjusting, Gu Shen raised his head, glanced at the door, and straightened his clothes.

dong dong dong.

The next moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in."

Gu Shen spoke.

The sound fell, and the door was pushed open.

Xiao Guo, a female servant from the inn, walked in with food in her hands. She happened to look at Gu Shen. The smile on her face suddenly froze and her body trembled. The food in her hand was about to fall to the ground, but she saw Gu Shen suddenly He came to him and took the food.

"Mr. Gu Gu, I'm sorry, I -"

"It's okay, just be careful next time. Go down."

"Yes."

Xiao Guo responded, then quickly turned around and left. After leaving the room, he walked a few steps until he was almost at the wooden staircase, then he hurriedly turned back and closed the door.

In the lobby of Tongfu Inn.

Jin Xiangyu, Huang Doudou, Lu Xiucai, and Li Dayan were sitting at the long table talking. When they heard movement from the wooden ladder, they looked up and saw Xiao Guo holding on to the handrail of the wooden ladder, shivering. He walked down step by step, his face turned pale.

"Mei Guo, what's wrong with you?"

When Lu Xiucai saw this, his expression changed drastically. He quickly stood up, ran to Xiao Guo, and helped him down the wooden ladder.

Jin Xiangyu and others also gathered around, asking what was going on.

Huang Doudou hugged his chest with both hands, raised his right hand, and gently rubbed his chin. His eyes looked back and forth at Xiao Guo. Finally, he looked at Xiao Guo's trembling legs and speculated: "If I'm not wrong, Xiao Guo Guo, did you just have a fight with Mr. Gu?"

"War? Old Huang, are you kidding? Even if Xiao Guo has two skills, how can he be the opponent of Mr. Gu? Mr. Gu is the No. 1 of the younger generation."

Li Dazui yelled.

Huang Doudou shook his head and said: "Big Eyes, don't you understand now? The battle I'm talking about is not the other battle, but the battle on the bed!"

Huang Doudou's words shocked everyone. Looking at Xiao Guo's frightened appearance and his trembling legs, it seemed that this was really the case.

Lu Xiucai had been secretly in love with Xiao Guo for many years. When he suddenly heard the bad news, he immediately became so furious that his heart and lungs were about to explode. He let go of Xiao Guo and was about to rush to the second floor. Li Dayan grabbed him and said, "You What to do?"

"It must be that thief who forced Sister Guo. I will avenge Sister Guo and fight to the death with him!"

Lu Xiucai's eyes were about to burst into flames.

Xiao Guo picked up Lu Xiucai's collar and threw it to the ground. His face was red, black and white. He looked at Huang Doudou angrily and said, "Asshole, what are you talking about?"

After saying that, Xiao Guo just went to deliver food to Gu Shen. He accidentally looked at Gu Shen and felt dizzy, as if he was trapped in chaos. Until now, he has not reacted.

"So that's it, I'm just saying, if it's really like what Lao Huang said, how could Mr. Gu be so fast?" Li Dayan looked like he was indeed like this.

Xiao Guo's face was covered with red clouds.

"Go, go, shut up if you can't speak." Jin Xiangyu glared at Li Dayan, helped Xiao Guo to sit down at the long table, then looked at Huang Doudou and said: "Old Huang, you have the highest cultivation level. Having been in the world of cultivation for so many years, do you know what Xiao Guo is talking about?"

Huang Doudou thought for a while and said: "If I guessed correctly, Mr. Gu was practicing. He had just finished his exercises and his energy and energy had not been completely collected. It happened that at this time, Xiao Guo went over to deliver food. Mr. Gu Some of the energy and spirit that have not yet been collected have frightened the mind. It is not a big problem. It will be fine after a period of cultivation.

"You are doing well. If Mr. Gu really wanted to kill you, he wouldn't even have to move his fingers. He would just look at you and you would die."

Among the guys at Tongfu Inn, Huang Doudou has the highest level of cultivation. When he broke into the world of cultivation, he even left a name because he saw how terrifying a real powerful person is. Speaking of it now, , is truly frightening.

Xiao Guo's face turned pale again, and he pursed his lips and said, "Then I knocked on the door."

"Then next time you go to deliver food to Mr. Gu, after knocking on the door, wait a moment and don't go in yet." Huang Doudou said.

Xiao Guo shook his head like a rattle, opened his eyes wide, and said with fear and palpitations on his face: "I won't go see him off next time. Lao Huang, since you are so experienced, you might as well go."

The second floor.

In Gu Shen's room.

He naturally knew about the discussion on the first floor.

Hearing Huang Doudou and Li Dayan's speculation about him, Gu Shen couldn't help but have black lines on his face.However, he also apologized to Xiao Guo. He brought food to him so nicely, but instead he hurt his energy and energy. It would take him at least half a year to recover slowly.

I have been staying at Tongfu Inn for more than half a year. After such a long time, I have become familiar with the shopkeeper and the staff in the inn.

After eating, Gu Shen stood up and walked out of the room.

Walking down the wooden ladder, the scene in the entire inn fell into his eyes. It was supposed to be meal time, but there was no one at the table. Gu Shen couldn't help but wonder if this had something to do with him. After all, he was now The news of temporarily living in Tongfu Inn has been known to many high-level figures.

"cough."

Gu Shen coughed lightly.

In the lobby on the first floor, in front of the long table, several people heard a cough. They quickly looked up and saw Gu Shen.

"Master Gu."

"Master Gu is out."

"Hello, Young Master Gu."

Jin Xiangyu, Huang Doudou, Xiao Guo, Lu Xiucai, and Li Dayan all stood up and greeted Gu Shen.

Gu Shen stood on the wooden ladder, nodded slightly, and finally his eyes fell on Xiao Guo, and his consciousness explored his injuries.

Xiao Guo's body trembled slightly. At this moment, she felt as if she was naked in front of Gu Shen and was seen through by him.

Gu Shen examined the injuries on Xiao Guo's body, not only the hidden injuries he had caused her just now, but also the injuries she had suffered in previous years. It seemed that she had recovered, but in fact there were still invisible problems. They were not visible now, but at the critical moment moment, but it is extremely fatal, especially when breaking through a major realm. If a hidden disease suddenly breaks out, death is very likely.

Gu Shen raised his right arm and waved it gently, and a golden glow floated towards Xiao Guo.

The speed of this golden cloud was obviously not very fast, but everyone could only watch helplessly and had no time to stop it.

call out!
In an instant, this golden cloud fell on Xiao Guo.

"What did you do to Sister Guo?"

Lu Xiucai's expression changed drastically, he stepped forward to support Xiao Guo and scolded Gu Shen.

"Scholar."

Xiao Guo stretched out his hand to pull Lu Xiucai, and then felt the changes in his body. He looked at Gu Shen in surprise and said, "Thank you, Mr. Gu."

Gu Shen didn't say anything, just smiled, nodded, then walked down the wooden stairs and left Tongfu Inn.

"Mei Guo, why are you still thanking him? Are you afraid of him?" Lu Xiucai, who was only in the Qi Refining Stage, was so full of hormones at this time that he was very likely to chase Gu Shen after Guo Mei gave her order.

Xiao Guo rolled his eyes at Lu Xiucai, with a strange look on his face. He looked around, and finally lowered his head, his eyes falling on himself, "I, I feel like I'm about to break through."

"what?"

"what?"

Three days later.

A golden ray of light flew out from Tongfu Inn and went straight to the northwest.

At Zhenguan, on top of the tall city wall, military giants from the Qi Dynasty wearing various colored shirts and armors stood here, watching the battlefield below.

"General, yesterday Marquis Donglin severely injured the Supreme Elder of Zhulong Palace. If Marquis Donglin is sent to take action today, Zhulong Palace will probably think that we have no one in the Qi Dynasty, so I will not ask for help today."

A golden-armored general with a dark face and a burly figure opened his mouth and raised his hand to General Shen Chong.

This person's name is Yang Yong, and he is titled Tianyuanhou. He guards the imperial capital of Qi all the year round and is in charge of a million forbidden troops. He is one of the military giants second only to General Shen Chong. His strength, status, and reputation are not as high as those of Donglinhou. Under the circumstances, and had always had a bad relationship with Marquis Donglin, yesterday I saw Marquis Donglin displaying his power on the battlefield, and today I started to think about competing for the limelight.

Although Shen Chong's cultivation is stronger than the others present, Tianyuanhou is also a giant-level powerhouse and the top dignitary of the Qi Dynasty. He will not easily dismiss Tianyuanhou's face. Since Tianyuanhou took the initiative to ask for help, Shen Chong followed suit. 's agreed.

"Okay, let's get a glimpse of Marquis Tianyuan today." Shen Chong said.

Tianyuan Hou Yang Yong smiled and said: "Yes!"

Marquis Donglin looked indifferent and did not look at Marquis Tianyuan. He looked at the battlefield below. The middle and lower levels of both sides were already fighting. Most of the Daqi Dynasty military monks used military formations to kill each other. Although the Zhulong Temple monks did not Arranged in formation, but with the blessing of the Zhulong relic, they did not lose at all in the battle with the soldiers of the Daqi Dynasty, and even had an advantage!
"It's time for him to come."

Marquis Donglin whispered in his heart.

Sure enough, not long after waiting, a golden glow flew from the southeast and attracted the attention of some people. However, these people only took a look. The most they could say was "benevolence and righteousness", because this golden glow was no longer the first. Appeared for the first time, in the past six months, he has been on the battlefield almost every day.

"It's been half a year. There has been no news about Bai Yongnian. He must be dead. He died in the hands of Gu Shen's protectors."

Marquis Donglin looked at the golden clouds passing through the battlefield and thought about something secretly in his heart.
"He probably doesn't know that I asked Bai Yongnian to go. He probably doesn't know.

"And he saves so many people every day, so he must be a kind-hearted person. Such a person is the easiest to deal with. Fortunately, fortunately, he is not the kind of person who will retaliate for his anger."

Gu Shen kept shuttled between the battlefields of the two holy places. Wherever he went, everyone looked at him with admiring eyes, full of respect. He had saved too many people. In the eyes of many monks on both sides, Mr. Gu was saint.

Outsiders will sneer at Gu Shen's behavior, but when you are on this battlefield, when your life is about to be threatened, you will truly understand that Gu Shen's behavior is great.

Everyone except Gu Shen didn't know that the reason why he did this was not because he was a great good man or a great saint, but because he had other motives. The so-called saving people was just a casual thing. For a reason, it can also establish a good reputation, so why wouldn't he do it?
Of course, Gu Shen is not just trying to gain fame. He is not a good person, but he is not a bad person either. Although his main purpose is to absorb Yin Qi, he is also serious about saving people's lives.

It is precisely because he saved so many people that he is able to gain so much admiration now.

But Gu Shen didn't think too much about this. His focus was still on Yin Qi. Improving his own cultivation and strength was the most fundamental thing!
As the wisps of Yin Qi were absorbed, Gu Shen could feel that the shackles blocking the front were being weakened little by little.

"If I continue at this rate, in about half a month, I will be able to completely eliminate that shackles, break through to the middle stage of the Mahayana, and become a Holy Lord-level powerhouse."

Gu Shen took a deep breath, suppressed the restlessness in his heart, and continued to travel around the battlefield, absorbing the Yin Qi one by one.

boom!
Suddenly, a terrifying aura erupted on the Zhenhaiguan city wall, and then Gu Shen saw a giant-level strongman from the Daqi Dynasty wearing golden armor taking one step and arriving on the battlefield.

The Daqi Dynasty sent a giant-level strongman!
hum!
At the same time, a huge force of energy also rose deep in the Zhulong Palace camp.

The next moment, a huge and long green candle dragon relic was seen flying up. On top of the dragon head, between the two dragon horns, a graceful middle-aged beauty with palace makeup stood, with a green ribbon fluttering in the wind. , if the true immortal in the sky rides a dragon down to the world, this woman must have been a stunning woman who captivated the country when she was young. Even now, she still has a heart-stirring charm.
