List of strange talismans

Chapter 163 Manifestation 4K
Gu Xiuya came back to his senses, looked down, and saw the man in the black and luxurious robe, who had come to him at some point.

With an extremely humble attitude, he bowed to the ground and saluted Gu Xiuya, behind him were dozens of soldiers who were also lying on the ground.

Gu Xiuya noticed the weapons these people placed at hand, the polished halberds gave off a cold light under the sunlight.

He suddenly understood in his heart that these people probably didn't come here specially to greet him.

These people took the initiative to bow their heads before, probably just to paralyze him. Later, when they found him standing there in a daze, they took the opportunity to touch him, preparing to launch a sneak attack.

As for why he didn't do this in the end, Gu Xiuya guessed that it was probably because he had inadvertently released his true energy just now, revealing his miraculous powers, which frightened these people and made them dare not act rashly for a while.

This is also normal.After all, a giant made of pure flesh and blood, no matter how tall and strong it is, can still be injured by weapons. As long as there are enough people, it may not be impossible to take it down.

But if the giant can summon divine fire to cover its body, it is not something that mortals can resist.

Anyone with a normal mind, after seeing the scene just now, has to think carefully whether to continue to take risks.

Gu Xiuya noticed that many of the soldiers with their heads down had nervousness and apprehension on their faces, obviously worried that he would notice the clues and lead to revenge.

Gu Xiuya didn't intend to take the initiative to expose these people, it didn't mean much to him.

He pretended not to notice, lowered his head slightly, glanced at the middle-aged man in front of him, and said.

"Your name is Zhang Shun?"

"Yes."

The middle-aged man lay on the ground and answered honestly.

"What year is it now?"

"So that the head of the fairy can know that this year is the fifth year of the 680th year of the fairy calendar, May [-]th."

Has 680 years passed in five years in 300?
He thought about it, and then heard Zhang Shun say: "Immortal Elder, Zhang Shun dared to ask, who did the Immortal Elder come from, and where is the immortal hometown? My Xuanshan City has not had an immortal master visit for hundreds of years. I thought that all the monks in this world have been resigned, but I didn’t expect that I would meet the immortal master of Guiyuan Sect, it’s really gratifying and congratulatory.”

"Ok?"

Gu Xiuya raised his eyebrows slightly: "Have you heard of Guiyuan Sect?"

"It's not just heard, but after all, the immortal leader and I still have a bit of fellowship."

Zhang Shundao: "The people of Xuanshan City and I have always admired the way of immortality. When the New Year is approaching, the people in this city will send their children of the right age to the fairy mountain, hoping to win a fairy fate. My Zhang family is no exception. Before the fairy mountain collapsed, my family Patriarch Zhong was lucky enough to join the Guiyuan Sect. He became a closed disciple under the seat of the Eight-headed Daoist."

A closed disciple, from the Xuan family?
Gu Xiuya became interested, and asked, "What's the name of the person you're talking about?"

"Reporting to the Immortal Elder, the family ancestor's common name is Zhang Zhi, and he was bestowed with the word 'Gong' by the Eight Immortals. From now on, it is called Xuan Gong."

"Xuan Palace."

Gu Xiuya suddenly felt a little emotional.

He didn't expect to hear this familiar name from Zhang Shun's mouth.

Times have changed and things are unpredictable.

Not long ago, Xuan Gong, who had been in high spirits in front of him, became a corpse under Xuan Zhen's subordinates in an instant, not to mention, even the grandson's grandson was so old.

300 years is really too long.

Senior brother, senior brother, I don’t know, when you imagined becoming an immortal and ancestor with the five-birth dragon transformation method, did you ever think that the future will be like this?

"The immortal has heard of the family ancestor?"

Perhaps it was Gu Xiuya's strange tone that made Zhang Shun aware of the clues. The city lord of Xuanshan City, who had kept his head down, couldn't help raising his head at this moment, and asked proactively.

Hearing this, Gu Xiuya withdrew his thoughts, nodded slightly, and said, "He is my senior brother."

"?!!"

Zhang Shun's eyes widened, he didn't expect to hear such an answer at all.

He was terrified in his heart, and his voice was distorted for a while: "Immortal Elder, you, are you serious?!"

Gu Xiuya did not speak.

He lifted his feet forward, passed a crowd of soldiers lying on the ground, and walked towards the city gate. Every step he made caused the ground to tremble slightly.

The breeze was rippling, and his low, thunderous voice came.

"Xuan Gong's real body is purple."

Zhang Shun's eyes jumped wildly.

He had seen many descriptions about the ancestor of Xuangong in his family history.

As the only ancestor of the Zhang family who entered the immortal way, the descendants recorded the Xuan Palace meticulously, and even included a picture of the real body manifested for worship.

The purple color exactly matches the color of the pattern in Zhang Shun's memory!
If an ordinary person said this, Zhang Shun might suspect that the other party just happened to know the news and came to deceive him.

But Gu Xiuya is a monk, and he is also a Guiyuan Sect monk who holds the ignorant python outer pill.He is the only monk who has visited Xuanshan City in 300 years.

There is no reason for such an immortal teacher to lie to him.

Thinking of this, Zhang Shun's heart was in a cold sweat.

The Great Cultivator 300 years ago, if such a person really gets angry, I am afraid that the best of Xuanshan City will be able to come out, and they will not be able to hurt the opponent!
Fortunately, fortunately, I just closed it in time.
At this moment, Zhang Shun felt quite fortunate in his heart that he survived the catastrophe.

The reason why he dared to take the risk before was trying to sneak attack on Gu Xiuya.It was because he discovered that although Gu Xiuya's enlarged body had amazing strength, it still retained a human shape, and there was no sign of a stupid boa constrictor visible all over his body.

This is a typical flaw in the records, only for monks in the incubation period.

But now, after learning that the other party was actually a monk of the same period as his master, Zhang Shun didn't dare to think so.

For 300 years, to survive the catastrophe of heaven and earth and live up to now, even a stubborn rock is enough to cultivate into a fairy!

It is impossible for such a monk to still be in the incubation period!

From Zhang Shun's point of view, Gu Xiuya had probably retreated 300 years ago, so he was lucky enough to escape the catastrophe of heaven and earth.

Now that he had broken through and found that the world had changed drastically, he searched for traces of mortals and found the vicinity of Xuanshan City. He wanted to use historical records to understand what happened over the years.

This is the conclusion he came to based on Su Tongyu's previous report.

Thinking of this, Zhang Shun couldn't help wondering if Gu Xiuya had some evil taste in pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, so he deliberately showed weakness to others, trying to lure them into being fooled, so that he could deal with them severely.

No wonder there are records that the monks in the Guiyuan religion are either stupid, or have strange brain circuits, and their thinking is different from ordinary people. Judging by the posture of this immortal master, it is really so.

Zhang Shun reminded himself silently in his heart, he decided that in the next time, no matter how rude the other party's request was, he would try his best to handle it well.

This is not only to avoid giving the opponent an excuse, but also to seize this opportunity.

The Great Cultivator 300 years ago was still related to his ancestors. For such a character, even if something leaked through his fingernails, it would be enough for him to use for a lifetime!

This is the opportunity for the rise of Xuanshan City!

The more Zhang Shun thought about it, the more excited he became, he hurriedly shouted: "Master Immortal, wait a moment, let someone lead the way for him!"

After finishing speaking, he raised his robe without any image, and rushed out impatiently, chasing after Gu Xiuya.

Seeing this, the rest of the soldiers looked at each other and quickly followed.

A group of people entered the city gate mightily.

Zhang Shun walked in front, as if on a saddle and behind a horse, and showed Gu Xiuya the way with a courteous face: "Immortal Chief, follow this road and walk about [-] steps, and you will be the City Lord's Mansion."

Gu Xiuya hummed without saying a word, and looked up at the long street in front of him.

Unlike the ones seen on the mountain, the Hanging Mountain City at close range does not look glamorous.

The long street paved with blue stones is covered with muddy water, the houses on the left and right are low and dirty, swill and night incense are grandly placed on the side of the street, and the excrement left by the horses can be seen on the sidewalk.

The clothes of the residents are lacklustre, without the slightest humanistic characteristics. Most of them are made of linen or Gebu, and the length can only be said to barely cover the body. Many people are even unkempt. It seems that they have not bathed for a long time.

The City Lord's Mansion at the end of the long street is a little better. It is one of the few glamorous buildings in the whole city with a height of more than six meters, but it also looks in disrepair. There were originally two golden dragons embossed on the tall gate, but now the golden Most of the paint was peeled off, and the dragon's body was corroded to black, leaving only the faintly visible scales and half claws.

Clothing and architecture are often the things that best reflect the development level of a region. Only when people do not need to worry about food sources will they have the energy to improve their living environment and care about their external appearance.

Gu Xiuya noticed that the proportion of young and strong people in the population is not low. Basically, there is one young and strong man in every three residents. This shows that it is not the lack of labor that causes these people's living conditions to be low.

Could it be that the disappearance of the power of heaven and earth also affected the output of the land?

This thought flashed across Gu Xiuya's mind, and he frowned slightly for a while.

If this is the case, it means that the power of heaven and earth has been deeply involved in the material cycle of the entire planet, and the information revealed in it is quite terrifying.

Hope I'm overthinking it.

Gu Xiuya shook off the haze in his heart.

He turned his head slightly, glanced across the crowd in front of him, and noticed that many people looked at him with horror in their eyes, and their faces were full of expressions of fear and awe.

But there are also a small number of people who look vigilant and harbor hostility.But when he looked over, he lowered his head to hide his emotions.

Gu Xiuya was not surprised by this. Although the strength he showed just now was already very strong for ordinary people, it was far from invincible.Therefore, it is not surprising that some people dare to resist.

But Gu Xiuya didn't want to see such a thing really happen.

His purpose is to uncover historical mysteries, learn the truth, and try to gain more benefits from it, not to fight bravely with a group of ordinary people and unilaterally slaughter.

Bullying these weak and ignorant mortals does not give him the slightest sense of accomplishment.

After all, he was once weak too.

Gu Xiuya looked up at the inside of the lower doorway, and decided to take advantage of the sun being obscured to try to change his real body.

This is not only to frighten the mortals in Hanging Mountain City and avoid meaningless troubles, but also to satisfy his own curiosity and verify his own strength.

While thinking about it, Gu Xiuya said, "City Master Zhang, do you still remember what Senior Brother Xuangong's real body looks like?"

"You can't be called the city lord of the immortal master, and you can just call him by a humble name."

Zhang Shun bowed slightly, saying that he didn't even dare, glanced at Gu Xiuya's body while speaking, and said: "After all, the family ancestor was a figure hundreds of years ago, and someone's understanding of him depends entirely on the genealogy records. Although there is a portrait, it has been blurred over the years, so I only know the scales and half armor, and I have not been lucky enough to see the whole picture."

"It's okay, just remember."

Gu Xiuya said indifferently: "Just look at me, who is stronger or weaker than my real body?"

The voice fell.

With a thought in Gu Xiuya's mind, all the true energy in his body immediately arose with the thought, pouring into his heart from his limbs and bones.

In an instant, the ignorant boa constrictor silently appeared in the chest, connected end to end, and circled around.

The light blue true essence, like the rays of light under a black hole, turned into wispy lines and sank into the snake's body.The moment the last ray of true essence was absorbed, the stupid boa's body suddenly emitted fluorescence, and slowly disintegrated into countless bright red spots, sinking into the flesh and blood.

All this is complicated to say, but in fact it is just a flash.

Gu Xiuya felt his body tremble, as if infinite power surged out of his flesh and blood, that power quickly broke through the genetic blockade with an unstoppable ferocious posture, bringing earth-shaking changes to the frail human body.

Zhang Shun opened his mouth wide.

He saw that Gu Xiuya's original height of more than eight feet suddenly soared to over one foot in the blink of an eye, and his head almost touched the wall of the doorway.The already huge body turned into a terrifying giant like an iron tower as if it was inflated.

This is not the scariest thing, what is even scarier are the things that suddenly appear on the other party.

Zhang Shun has never seen such a thing before, that thing is like a tree's rhizome, covered with root-like fluff, but wriggling like an earthworm, they gushed out from the giant's flesh and blood, followed the body to all directions Spreading, intertwined with each other, in the blink of an eye, a hideous creature like rattan armor was formed, completely enveloping the giant.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Shun saw the shimmering light on the vine armor, and the fine spores gradually emerged, followed by the growth of silk-net-like fungal plants, which jumped onto the face of the giant while crawling and surging, turning into a pair of visors to wrap it, Only a pair of brilliant eyes remained.

Zhang Shun's eyes twitched wildly. He remembered the description in the family tree about the real body of Xuangong Patriarch, which was eight feet tall, shaped like a snake man, possessed by scales and armor, and had a ferocious figure.

He originally thought that such a form was scary enough, but now, looking at the creation in front of him, which is comparable to a god, he realized that there is a world of difference between the real body and the real body!

This is indeed a long-standing old monster!

Zhang Shun couldn't help but feel lucky again that he chose to give up sneak attacking the opponent just now.

He thought about it, and was about to flatter the big man in front of him to absorb his magical powers, but before he could speak, he heard a low growl in his ear.

Zhang Shun raised his head nervously, and suddenly found that the giant in front of him lowered his head at some point.

The opponent's broad back was slightly bent, his rattan armor was rattled by the tense muscles, and the veins on his forehead were bulging, as if he was suppressing some kind of severe pain.

Before he could react to what had happened, he saw the vine armor on the giant's back split open with a crack, and a big lump of flesh and blood swelled up, rushing left and right, as if something was about to burst out of his body.
