Gou's Liver Experience in the World of Demons and Demons

Thinking of that unfathomable existence, the Great Elder broke out in a cold sweat.

Soon, the strong men from the six holy places reached a consensus.

The five elders of Qinghe took the lead and led dozens of experts to chase in the direction where Gu Sheng might escape.

The troops from other holy places followed closely like sharks smelling blood.

"Great Elder."

A confidant transmitted the message.

"If we follow like this, I'm afraid we will miss the best time for rescue."

The Great Elder’s eyes were profound.

"I have my own arrangements."

He suddenly stopped and turned to the disciples behind him.

"Everyone listen up, return to Tianlan Holy Land immediately!"

Everyone was stunned. A young disciple said anxiously.

"But the Holy Lord ordered us..."

"Shut up!"

The Great Elder shouted loudly, which was rare for him, and then lowered his voice.

"Go back and tell the Holy Lord that Qingyun has appeared and we need to prepare a retreat."

This sentence shocked all the Tianlan disciples. "Qingyun" is the highest level of codeword, which means that the situation is extremely critical.

"Great Elder, it's too dangerous for you to be alone!"

The henchman's eyes turned red.

The old man shook his head and took out an ancient jade slip from his arms.

"Deliver this item to the Holy Lord personally, without any mistakes."

His eyes swept over every young face and his voice suddenly softened.

"The future of Tianlan is entrusted to you."

These almost farewell words made several female disciples burst into tears on the spot.

But under the stern gaze of the Great Elder, everyone could only obey the order with tears in their eyes, turn around and gallop away.

Looking at the backs of his disciples going away, the elder breathed a sigh of relief. Now, he could give it a try.

The old man took out a silver talisman with a determined look in his eyes.

"Gu kid, please hold on."

The moment the talisman burned, his figure disappeared into the air.

Gu Sheng and Ling Xiao passed through ancient cities, ignoring the worldly hustle and bustle and not caring about the strange looks from others.

They only wanted to go further, preferably out of the sphere of influence of the Qinghe Holy Land.

"Pause."

Gu Sheng suddenly reached out to stop Ling Xiao.

They had just passed through the gate of an ancient city and were surrounded by a bustling crowd.

"what happened?"

Ling Xiao looked around vigilantly.

Gu Sheng did not answer immediately, but closed his eyes and concentrated, sensing something.

After a moment he opened his eyes and spoke in a low voice so that only the two of them could hear it.

"We can't escape."

Ling Xiao was startled. During this entire escape, he had never seen Gu Sheng show such a serious expression.

"What do you mean?"

Ling Xiao lowered his voice.

"Have you spotted the pursuers?"

Gu Sheng shook his head.

"It's not a specific pursuer, but a feeling."

He pointed to his heart.

"It's getting increasingly uneasy here, as if there's a sword hanging over our heads."

The intuition of a cultivator is often more reliable than the eyes, especially for someone like Gu Sheng who has experienced the trials of life and death.

"Is it because of those old monsters?" Ling Xiao asked tentatively.

"I heard that the most powerful people in Xinghong Spiritual Territory have all come out."

Gu Sheng nodded and glanced at the people passing by on the street.

"We are doing these little tricks right under their noses." Before he finished speaking, he smiled at himself.

There was aroma wafting from a teahouse in the distance and the sounds of children playing coming from the alley. Everything seemed so normal.

Ling Xiao suddenly slapped his thigh!
"Have it!"

This scared Gu Sheng so much that he almost drew his sword, attracting surprised looks from several passers-by.

He quickly held Ling Xiao's shoulders and pretended to be meeting an old friend.

"Cousin, I'm so glad to see you!"

After the passers-by dispersed, Gu Sheng said with gritted teeth.

"Why are you crazy?"

Ling Xiao's eyes lit up.

"Brother Gu, have you noticed? The cultivators we met along the way were all heading in the same direction!"

Gu Sheng was stunned, then he remembered that it was indeed the case.

They had inquired along the way and found out that these people were going to Qinghe Holy Land to participate in the disciple selection.

The seven holy places recruit new disciples every three years, which is a great opportunity for ordinary cultivators to make the leap.

"so what?"

Gu Sheng didn't understand.

Ling Xiao came closer and lowered his voice to a very low level.

"Let's go too!"

"what?!"

Gu Sheng almost shouted out loud and quickly coughed to cover it up.

"Are you crazy? That's the Qinghe Holy Land!"

"The most dangerous place is the safest place."

There was a cunning look in Ling Xiao's eyes.

"The enemy is hunting us all over the world, they would never think that we would dare to go to their lair!"

Gu Sheng looked at Ling Xiao as if he were a madman.

This proposal is worse than suicide.

Where is the Qinghe Holy Land?
That is a dangerous place that even Great Elder Tianlan is afraid of!
"Do you know how terrifying the Qinghe Saint Lord is?"

Gu Sheng gritted his teeth.

"My mask is just a piece of rag in front of the Holy Lord!"

Ling Xiao shook his head.

"During the Holy Land's recruitment period, tens of thousands of monks poured in every day. How could the Holy Lord have the time to check them all?"

Seeing that Gu Sheng was still hesitant, he continued his analysis.

"Besides, we only need to pass the preliminary selection. Once we get the temporary disciple token, we can legitimately stay in the outer area of ​​the holy land.

That's actually the most difficult place for pursuers to search!"

Gu Sheng remained silent.

His mind told him that this plan was full of loopholes, but his intuition gave him a vague feeling that it might actually be feasible.

"It's still too risky!" he murmured.

Ling Xiao suddenly became serious.

"Brother Gu, do you believe me?"

Gu Sheng raised his head and met Ling Xiao’s serious gaze that he had never seen before.

"letter."

He did not hesitate.

"Then take a gamble."

Ling Xiao grinned.

"I'm going to die anyway, so I might as well die in a more exciting way!"

This ridiculous logic made Gu Sheng laugh and cry. But strangely, the oppressive feeling in his heart actually eased a little.

"it is good."

Gu Sheng took a deep breath.

"But we have to disguise ourselves again."

He touched the cold mask on his face.

"This thing is useless in front of the Holy Lord, but it should be able to pass muster in the eyes of ordinary elders."

Ling Xiao nodded repeatedly.

"I have an idea - we can pretend to be brothers practicing in a remote area. You major in swordsmanship, and I specialize in Buddhism."

"brother?"

Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows.

"Brother!"

Ling Xiao was very serious.

"This way, even if they behave strangely, they can still explain it as 'deep brotherly love'."

"Alright!"

Ling Xiao rolled his eyes at Gu Sheng, and then his bones made crisp "cracking" sounds.

His aura suddenly changed. The originally peaceful and gentle Buddhist temperament disappeared, replaced by a sharp edge.

What was even more shocking was that his facial features began to distort and deform, his height suddenly increased by more than ten centimeters, and even his eyes became ferocious!
"This"

Gu Sheng’s eyes widened.

"how did you do it?"

Ling Xiao returned to his original appearance and raised his eyebrows proudly.

"The secret technique passed down from generation to generation is the Thousand Faces Transfiguration Technique. It does not require any external aids and can completely transform one from the inside out."

Gu Sheng's heart was shocked.

This secret technique was tailor-made for their current situation! If they could learn it, the success rate of sneaking into the Qinghe Holy Land would increase by at least 50%.

"Can a Saint Lord-level expert see through it?"

Gu Sheng asked anxiously.

Ling Xiao groaned.

"As long as you don't use your divine sense to carefully investigate, even the Holy Lord will find it difficult to tell the truth from the false."

"But this technique is extremely energy-consuming and can only be maintained for twelve hours at most."

Gu Sheng looked serious.

"Taught me!"

"Now?"

Ling Xiao was stunned.

"This secret technique is obscure and difficult to understand. Even with your talent, it will take at least..."

"Time is running out."

Gu Sheng interrupted him. "I feel like the pursuers are getting closer."

A faint sound of breaking air could be heard in the distant sky.

The two of them immediately turned into two afterimages and dived deep into the dense forest.

As night fell, they found a cave in an ancient forest.

There is a three-eyed demon wolf lurking in the cave, which is powerful enough to be at the Heavenly Palace level.

The demon wolf was pierced through the throat by Gu Sheng's sword.

"Rest here tonight."

Gu Sheng shook off the blood drops on the sword.

"You must first teach me the secret formula."

A bonfire was lit, and the aroma of roasting wolf meat filled the cave.

After the meal, Gu Sheng immediately went deep into the cave and began to comprehend the "Thousand Faces Illusion Form Art" taught by Ling Xiao.

"The mind moves with the will, the body follows the thought"

Gu Sheng silently recited the incantation, trying to mobilize the spiritual power in his body to run along a specific route.

There was no reaction at first, but gradually he felt his facial muscles begin to warm slightly.

Strands of spiritual energy intertwined beneath the skin, gradually changing the outline of the bones.

"Well"

Gu Sheng groaned.

The pain of forcibly changing the body structure is comparable to scraping bones to cure poison.

Ling Xiao, who was at the entrance of the cave, heard the noise and couldn't help but remind them.

"Don't be impatient! Take your time, or you'll damage your foundation!"

Gu Sheng turned a deaf ear and continued with gritted teeth.

Every moment of delay increases the danger.

Sweat soaked through his clothes, and the severe pain made his vision blurry. But Gu Sheng held on until the sky in the east turned pale.

"Success!"

A low cry came from the cave. Ling Xiao rushed in and saw that Gu Sheng's face had completely changed.

He has a square face, a broad forehead, and thick eyebrows like swords, and looks like a rough man.

"you"

Ling Xiao was stunned.

"You got started overnight?"

Gu Sheng grinned, and his voice became hoarse.

"How about it?"

"monster!"

Ling Xiao shook his head and sighed.

"It took me three months of practice to change my face!"

At the same time, Tianlan Holy Land.

In the Heavenly Palace at the top of Shengtian Peak, Holy Lord Tianlan stood in front of the window.

"The Great Elder really said that?"

The old man kneeling below said respectfully.

"Yes. The Great Elder ordered us to send a message immediately, asking the Holy Lord to lead the elders to Liangjie Mountain."

Holy Lord Tianlan turned around, his brows full of worry.

"Have all six holy places been dispatched?"

"More than that." The old man's forehead was covered with sweat.

"The Holy Lord Qinghe is suspected to be here in person. The Great Elder is most afraid of him."

Several elders in the hall changed color when they heard this.

The Holy Lord of Qinghe—he is one of the top beings in the Xinghong Spiritual Realm!

"Nonsense!" A red-faced elder slammed the table and stood up.

"Is it worth taking such a big risk for Gu Sheng?"

Saint Tianlan raised his hand to stop him.

"The Great Elder has his reasons for doing things."

He walked over to the sand table in the center of the hall and gazed at the area representing the Qinghe Holy Land.

"It's just too risky this time."

"Holy Lord!" Feng Zhenshan couldn't help but speak out.

"The Great Elder."

"I know!"

Saint Tianlan suddenly stopped, his sleeves moving without wind.

The candles in the hall dimmed and several elders held their breath and lowered their heads.

When the Holy Lord gets angry, even the air will freeze.

After a long silence, Saint Tianlan suddenly asked.

"The Second Elder is still at the Cliff of Reflection?"

Feng Zhenshan was stunned.

"Yes, since last time."

"Let him out." The Holy Lord interrupted.

"Just say that I have ordered him to make amends for his crime."

The red-faced elder's face changed when he heard this.

"Holy Lord! Xuan Feng has always been against training Gu Sheng. If he..."

"Therefore."

"He has a deep foundation in the Holy Land. If he doesn't make an effort, the plan will be difficult to accomplish."

Holy Lord Tianlan turned to the sand table and tapped the area representing the Qinghe Holy Land with his fingertips.

"Order all elders to gather at Liangjie Mountain at three o'clock in the morning. In addition."

"Have the Shadow Guard stand by."

Feng Zhenshan was shocked. Shadow Guard was the most secret force of Tianlan Holy Land, and it had not been used for a hundred years.

"I'll do it right away." The old man retreated in a hurry.

After everyone left, Saint Tianlan walked towards the library alone.

In the moonlight, his back appeared somewhat hunched.

"You really gave me a difficult problem this time."

a long distance away,

Dozens of figures from the Qinghe Holy Land quietly passed over the city.

The needle of a blood-red compass in the hands of the fifth elder in the lead was shaking violently.

"There are still a hundred miles."

"That kid finally stopped running!"

The eighth elder behind him was worried.

"Fifth brother, do you want to inform the Holy Lord first?"

"idiot!"

The fifth elder shouted.

"When the Holy Lord arrives, can the credit still be ours?"

He stroked a jade talisman in his sleeve.

This is a life-saving item given by the Holy Lord himself before departure, and it is enough to deal with any emergency.

"Full speed ahead! Remember, you have to stay alive!"

Everyone kept a low profile and sped away under the cover of night.

Little did they know that not long after they left, a grey figure emerged from the shadows of the city wall.

“Sure enough, I took the bait.”

The communication jade slip in the hands of Great Elder Tianlan glowed faintly.

, he suddenly tore the void! The violent spatial fluctuations instantly awakened half of the monks in the city!

"You old bastard! Did you do this on purpose?!"

The Eighth Elder turned around and cursed.

The fifth elder’s face turned pale.

"Never mind him! Let's get there first!"

Deep in the ancient forest, inside a cave.

Gu Sheng suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed Ling Xiao who was dozing off.

"somebody is coming!"

"what?"

Ling Xiao woke up instantly.

"Impossible! I used a secret Buddhist method to cover it up."

"It's Qinghe's people!"

Gu Sheng looked grim.

"At least thirty, and the one leading them is very strong!"

He hurriedly grabbed the black cloth wrapped around the holy sword on the ground, but heard a loud noise!
A big hole blew up in the top of the cave, and moonlight poured down!

Amid the flying gravel, dozens of figures stood in the air. The old man in the lead had fluttering white beard and murderous intent in his eyes.

"Fifth Elder, why do you need to personally take action against a mere junior in the Heavenly Palace Realm?"

The Eighth Elder had a puzzled look on his face, and his voice was very low but he couldn't hide his confusion.

Several venerables around also had strange expressions on their faces, and some even couldn't help but whisper.

The fifth elder raised his eyebrows, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"What do you know? This boy has incredible luck. He has managed to escape death many times!"

A red-haired venerable stepped forward and clasped his fists.

"I am willing to go and guarantee to capture him alive."

"Shut up!"

The fifth elder interrupted sharply.

"How did Wang Xiujie die? How did Lu Feng die? Are you stronger than them?"

These words were like a bucket of cold water poured down on everyone, and everyone suddenly became silent.

Yes, which of those fallen strong men was not a powerful and fearsome figure?

"Set up the formation!"

The fifth elder stopped talking nonsense and seven golden lights flew out from his sleeves.

"Seal off the entire mountain, and don't let even an ant escape!"

Everyone did not dare to delay and took out their spiritual weapons one after another.

In an instant, colorful lights shot up into the sky.

The fifth elder clasped his hands together, and complex array patterns appeared on the ground, and his spiritual energy solidified.

"Qinghe bastards! How dare you bully my Tianlan disciples?!"

The roar was like thunder from the sky! (End of this chapter)
