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

"Examiner, I am just..."

Cold sweat oozed from Ke Yucheng's forehead and the tip of the sword trembled slightly.

Gu Sheng took the opportunity to retreat three steps, his sleeves fluttering to hide the gleam that flashed in his eyes.

He originally planned to lure Ke Yucheng into a full-scale attack and then pretend to be seriously injured and admit defeat, but he did not expect the examiner to suddenly intervene.

Now that this mad dog Ke Yucheng was frightened, he didn't know how to end the situation.

"Let's compete and learn from each other, and stop when the time is right."

The examiner's eyes were as sharp as lightning.

"If you do it again, your qualification will be revoked!"

The audience below the stage immediately began to talk.

Ling Xiao touched his chin and whispered to the two people beside him.

"Gu Sheng is lucky. If that sword strike just now had worked..."

"fart!"

Wang Yun clenched his fists.

"It was obviously Ke Yucheng who was playing dirty tricks! The examiner is very observant!"

Xu Guangzhi narrowed his eyes.

"I don't think it's luck. Didn't you notice that the examiner looked at Gu Sheng differently? What Qinghe Holy Land lacks most is..."

Before he could finish his words, the situation on the ring suddenly changed.

Ke Yucheng suddenly jumped up, and the green sword energy on the magic sword surged three feet, condensing into nine sword shadows in the air.

"Gu Sheng! If I don't destroy you today, I will write the word Ke backwards!"

Nine sword shadows were like poisonous snakes spitting out their tongues, blocking all of Gu Sheng’s escape routes.

There were exclamations from the spectators, and the examiner frowned but did not make another move - this time it was indeed a fair and aboveboard move.

Gu Sheng's pupils suddenly shrank.

He could have avoided the vital point, but he caught a glimpse of the examiner staring at him from the corner of his eye and immediately changed his mind.

He was half a beat slower on purpose, and a bloody mark was left on his left shoulder by the sword energy.

"Hiss——" Gu Sheng staggered back, covering the wound with his right hand, blood gushing out from between his fingers.

The injury looked horrifying, but in fact he had secretly used his true Qi to protect his meridians, and even the pain was under control within a tolerable range.

Ke Yucheng was overjoyed when he saw this and attacked even more fiercely.

The sword light poured down like a rainstorm, and Gu Sheng was defeated step by step. His green robe was cut in seven or eight places in an instant. Blood oozed from each wound, but none of them was fatal.

"Why didn't Gu Sheng fight back?"

Some young disciples in the audience shouted anxiously.

Wang Yun stamped his feet in anxiety.

"What do you know! Ke Yucheng is using the Nine Revolutions Green Blade Technique. If you take it head-on, you're courting death!"

Xu Guangzhi suddenly let out a light exclamation.

"Look at Gu Sheng's retreat route."

On the stage, Gu Sheng looked embarrassed, but in fact, every step he took was calculated precisely.

He took advantage of the thrust of Ke Yucheng's sword and moved to the edge of the ring without leaving a trace.

Every time when he was about to be forced into a desperate situation, he would deliberately expose a flaw to lure Ke Yucheng to change his tactics, and this cycle would repeat over and over again.

After thirty moves, sweat appeared on Ke Yucheng's forehead.

The more he fought, the more he felt something was wrong - he could clearly hurt Gu Sheng every time, but the other party was like an immortal cockroach, always managing to narrowly avoid his vital points.

"Pretending!"

Ke Yucheng suddenly changed his tactics, and the green light on the sword's edge turned into dark red.

"Taste my bloody sword!"

The sword came with great skill and went straight for Gu Sheng's throat.

There was a gleam in Gu Sheng's eyes, this was the moment he had been waiting for!

He pretended to be panicked and raised his sword to block, but secretly withdrew 30% of his strength.

"clang!"

The jade sword flew out of his hand, drawing a graceful arc in the air.

Gu Sheng took the opportunity to force out a mouthful of blood.

"Wow" a blood mist spurted out and the whole person flew backwards.

"not good!"

Ke Yucheng suddenly woke up.

Only then did he realize that the direction Gu Sheng was flying was the edge of the ring, and the distance was just right - falling at this angle would just be enough to avoid all his subsequent killing moves!
"Want to escape?"

Ke Yucheng's face was ferocious, and he stomped his toes on the ground, causing the blue bricks of the arena to shatter.

He rushed towards Gu Sheng, with his spirit sword pointing directly at the other's dantian.

"Leave me your cultivation!"

In a flash, Gu Shengren actually smiled in mid-air.

He secretly made a seal with his right hand, and the true energy in his body suddenly rushed against his meridians, abruptly changing his falling trajectory.

"Pfft!"

Ke Yucheng's sword only pierced Gu Sheng's left arm, and Gu Sheng used the force to accelerate and fly towards the outer edge of the ring.

The crowd below the stage only saw a blood-stained figure streaking through the air, and then—

"Boom!"

Gu Sheng fell heavily onto the bluestone ground outside the arena, just outside the designated boundary.

"The competition is over!"

The examiner announced immediately, with a hint of appreciation in his voice.

"Gu Sheng is out of bounds, Ke Yucheng wins!"

There was an uproar.

Ling Xiao clapped his hands in admiration.

"Great! This kid can control the direction even when he's spitting blood!"

Wang Yun's expression suddenly changed.

"careful!"

Ke Yucheng ignored the rules and jumped off the stage, pointing his sword directly at Gu Sheng's abdomen.

"Want to run? It's not that easy!"

"go to hell!"

Ke Yucheng grinned fiercely, and the magic sword in his hand gushed out dark spiritual power, piercing straight into Gu Sheng's abdomen.

"stop!"

The examiner roared and rushed towards the stage with tremendous anger.

He never expected that someone would dare to kill so many people during the entrance examination to the Qinghe Holy Land.

Gu Sheng's body fell from mid-air, his eyes slightly closed, and his breath was as weak as a candle in the wind.

The robe on his chest was soaked with blood, and the wound on his left arm was so deep that the bone could be seen, which was horrifying.

"Hahaha, Gu Sheng, you have come to this day!"

Wang Yuchen waved his fists excitedly in the audience, with viciousness in his eyes.

"Throw him to death! Make sure he never gets up again!"

"Ke Yucheng!"

Ling Xiao's eyes were bloodshot, and the murderous energy around him was surging like a substance.

"If anything happens to Gu Sheng, I will make you live a life worse than death!"

On the stage, Ke Yucheng felt the approaching terrifying aura of the examiner. He was filled with fear, but the spirit sword in his hand became more and more crazy.

The black spiritual power had almost condensed into substance, only an inch away from Gu Sheng's abdomen.

At this critical moment——

Gu Sheng's eyes, which had been tightly closed, suddenly opened!

"boom!"

A suffocating feeling of oppression burst out from his seemingly weak body.

At that moment, Gu Sheng seemed to be reborn. Spiritual energy surged throughout his body, and his aura was so strong that tiny cracks appeared in the protective formations around the arena.

"This is this"

Ke Yucheng's pupils suddenly shrank, and the magic sword in his hand began to tremble involuntarily.

He felt as if he was not facing a human being, but an awakened ancient beast.

There was a golden light in Gu Sheng's eyes and a sneer on his lips.

"what!"

Ke Yucheng suddenly screamed, and the spiritual energy in his body ran wildly uncontrollably, and it felt like millions of steel needles were piercing his meridians.

He spat out a mouthful of blood, and the black spiritual power on the spiritual sword instantly dissipated.

"boom!"

The examiner arrived in time and slapped Ke Yucheng on the chest, knocking him into the ground of the arena, creating a huge hole about ten feet deep.

"Gu Sheng, are you okay?"

The examiner turned around and asked with concern, while glancing around vigilantly.

Even he was frightened by the sudden pressure just now.

Gu Sheng stood up slowly, his aura returning to normal, as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.

He coughed twice and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. "Thank you for your concern, examiner. It's just a minor injury. I'll be fine after a few days of rest."

The examiner looked at Gu Sheng deeply, then turned to Ke Yucheng in the pit, his eyes filled with even more anger.

"Ke Yucheng! How dare you kill someone during the assessment? Go to the Dragon Suppression Hall to receive your punishment later!"

"Dragon Suppression Palace?!"

Everyone in the audience gasped. That was a place where even the elders of the sect would lose a layer of skin if they made a mistake.

In the pit, Ke Yucheng climbed up with difficulty, his face pale.

He looked at Gu Sheng in shock, the fear from that moment still lingering in his heart.

What made him even more aggrieved was that he had to go to the horrible Dragon Suppression Palace even though he failed to succeed.

"Examiner, I..."

Ke Yucheng wanted to defend himself.

"Shut up!"

The examiner shouted coldly.

"If it weren't for Gu Shengfu's good fortune, he would have been a corpse by now!"

Ke Yucheng gritted his teeth and lowered his head, but there was resentment in his eyes.

The examiner frowned and looked at Gu Sheng.

"What happened just now? Why did Ke Yucheng suddenly stop?"

Gu Sheng looked confused.

"I don't know either. Maybe Senior Brother Ke suddenly felt guilty?"

The examiner obviously didn't believe this, but seeing that Gu Sheng was unwilling to say more, he didn't ask any further questions.

"Go and rest first. The sect will give you an explanation on this matter."

Gu Sheng bowed in thanks and slowly walked down the stage.

His steps seemed light, but in fact each one of them followed a mysterious rhythm.

If there was a formation master here, he would be shocked to find that wherever he passed, the damaged arena formation would repair itself!
"Gu Sheng!"

Wang Yun was the first to rush forward and support him.

"How are you? Are you seriously injured?"

"No problem."

Gu Sheng smiled faintly.

"It's just that the wound on my left arm is quite deep and I need to recuperate for a few days."

Liang Yu squeezed over, his face full of curiosity.

"Brother Gu, what exactly is the grudge between you and Ke Yucheng? Why did he treat you so cruelly?"

There was a hint of coldness in Gu Sheng's eyes, which disappeared in an instant.

"Maybe he's jealous that I'm more handsome than him?"

Everyone laughed and the atmosphere eased a little.

Only Ling Xiao stood aside, looking at Gu Sheng with complicated eyes.

As a good friend of Gu Sheng, he knows better than anyone else what kind of hidden strength this seemingly gentle boy has.

Gu Sheng walked to the corner, sat cross-legged, and began to practice internal energy to heal his wounds.

The wound on his left arm healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. This scene made the several examiners who were observing secretly look at each other in bewilderment.

"This boy is not simple."

A white-bearded examiner whispered.

“That momentum just now.”

The other female examiner's eyes sparkled.

"It is definitely not something that ordinary disciples can possess."

Half an hour later, the examiner announced.

"This year's Qinghe Holy Land entrance examination has officially ended! The ten people who have obtained the disciple quota will stay, and the rest of you will leave immediately!"

Before leaving, Wang Yuchen glared at Gu Sheng fiercely, but was frightened by Ling Xiao's look and shrank his neck.

Ke Yucheng was escorted to the Dragon Suppression Hall by two law enforcement disciples. Before leaving, he turned around and looked at Gu Sheng, his lips moving slightly, as if he said something.

Gu Sheng just smiled faintly, and that smile made Ke Yucheng feel cold all over.

After a while, the examiner returned, his face was a little pale, and it was obvious that dealing with Ke Yucheng's matter had consumed a lot of his energy.

When he looked at Gu Sheng and others, his eyes softened a lot.

"follow me."

The examiner said briefly.

"I'll take you to assess your disciple level."

"Disciple level?"

Liang Yu asked excitedly.

"Is it divided into outer sect, inner sect and core disciples as the legend says?"

The examiner nodded.

"That's right. The Qinghe Holy Land has a strict hierarchy of disciples, and the cultivation resources and status obtained by different levels vary greatly. Your evaluation will be determined based on your talent, potential, and today's performance."

Liang Yu swallowed.

He stole a glance at Su Yongchang, who was walking in the front. His blue robe glowed with a faint aura in the morning light, and every step he took seemed to resonate with the heaven and earth. Liang Yu finally mustered up the courage to speak.

"Senior Susu, I have something to ask you."

Liang Yu's voice was as thin as a mosquito and was almost drowned out by the sound of the mountain wind.

Su Yongchang did not stop, but just turned his head slightly and glanced at the young man out of the corner of his eye.

"explain."

"About...about the rules for assessing the level of disciples after entering the Holy Land."

Liang Yu's voice became smaller and smaller.

The disciples from the small sects behind him also pricked up their ears, obviously concerned about this issue as well.

Ling Xiao rolled his eyes as he watched from the side, and strode forward to pat Liang Yu on the shoulder.

"Why are you like a frightened rabbit?"

He turned to Su Yongchang and grinned.

"Senior, we, the independent cultivators and those from small sects, only know the rules of the competition. We are completely clueless when we enter the holy land. Can you please give us a rough idea?"

The corners of Su Yongchang's mouth curled up slightly, but he kept a deliberate stern face.

"Why rush? You'll know when you get there."

"Hey!"

Ling Xiao sighed exaggeratedly, turned around and spoke to Gu Sheng beside him.

"This old man is really good at keeping us in suspense. Do you think we can become a core disciple?"

Gu Sheng looked at him expressionlessly and replied in the same voice transmission.

"I don't know."

"Tch, boring."

Ling Xiao curled his lips, but there was a confident light in his eyes.

"I want to be a core disciple. I heard that core disciples can enter the spiritual vein cave to practice. The concentration of spiritual energy there is so dense..."

Gu Sheng didn't say anything else, his eyes turned to the outline of the mountains that were vaguely visible in the distance.

There, the outline of the Qinghe Holy Land was gradually becoming clear in the morning mist.

As everyone moved forward, the spiritual energy in the air became richer.

Liang Yu felt like swallowing a magic pill with every breath, and all the pores in his body relaxed.

He couldn't help but practice his mental skills, and was pleasantly surprised to find that his cultivation speed was more than three times faster than when he was in Huatian Sect.

“Is this the holy land?”

Liang Yu muttered to himself, his eyes slightly moist.

He remembered his master's instructions before he left.

"Yu'er, if you can enter the Qinghe Holy Land, the century-old foundation of our Huatian Sect will be guaranteed."

Suddenly, a ethereal bell sound came from afar, as if penetrating time and space and reaching the depths of the soul.

Everyone stopped and looked up at the same time.

Amidst the clouds and mist, nine sacred mountains pierced the sky like sharp swords.

The palaces in the mountains are magnificent and golden, with magical birds and beasts flying around.

A long colorful rainbow spans the sky, connecting the two highest peaks.

What is even more shocking is that there are three inverted mountains suspended in the sky. Waterfalls pour down from the top of the mountains, but they turn into spiritual energy and dissipate in mid-air.

"Oh My God"

Ling Xiao opened his mouth wide, and even his usual cynicism was restrained a little.

Su Yongchang looked at the shocked expressions of the newlyweds with satisfaction and waved his sleeves.

"Let's go. It will take another half a day to pass through the sect protection formation."

As the distance gets closer, the details of the holy land become clearer.

Liang Yu saw disciples flying with swords in the mountains, and the sword light was like a rainbow.

There are elders sitting on the cloud platform preaching, the sound of their teachings rumbling; there are also thousands of acres of spiritual fields, and the fragrance of magical medicines wafting in the air.

His heartbeat quickened as he imagined that he would be able to practice in such a fairyland in the future. The name of Huatian Sect would be known far and wide because of him. (End of this chapter)
