Gou's Liver Experience in the World of Demons and Demons
Chapter 697 Elixir
"Xi'er, Senior Gu saved our lives, so what are a few dragon burial roots? If I didn't have to find the life-extending spiritual herbs for you, I would have given all my treasures to him."
"But."
Muxi's voice faded away.
"It was because I wanted to go out and play that I got you hurt."
"Silly girl."
Mu Feng's voice softened.
"It's only natural for a brother to protect his sister. Besides, if we hadn't been in danger this time, we wouldn't have met a master like Senior Gu."
When Gu Sheng heard this, there was a strange look in his eyes.
He had indeed concealed his cultivation level and appeared to be just an ordinary cultivator on the surface. Unexpectedly, Mu Feng could actually detect the clues.
In the next room, Muxi was leaning against the head of the bed with a pale face.
She looked at her brother who was regulating his breathing, her eyes full of self-blame.
"Brother, your injury"
"No problem."
Mu Feng waved his hand and gave a comforting smile.
"I am a physical practitioner, so this injury is nothing."
As he spoke, he patted his strong chest, but couldn't help coughing twice.
Muxi hurriedly handed over the water bag with tears in his eyes.
"You said it was okay! It's all my fault. If I hadn't insisted on going to see the 'Sunlight Waterfall', I wouldn't have met the Iron-backed Wolf."
Mu Feng took the water bag and gently stroked his sister's head.
"Xi'er, don't blame yourself. The most urgent thing is to recover from your injuries. The auction will start in two days, and we must find the life-extending herb."
When mentioning the life-extending herb, Muxi's eyes dimmed.
She has been weak since childhood, and the tribal witch doctor said she would not live past the age of 20. Now she is 17 years old. If she can't find the life-extending herb,
"Brother, if you can't find the spiritual herbs..."
Muxi's voice trembled slightly.
“I will definitely find it!”
Mu Feng interrupted her decisively.
"The deacons of Zixia Holy Land will participate in this auction, and there will definitely be rare spiritual medicines appearing."
There was determination in his eyes.
"I have already missed the Holy Land selection for those under thirty, so I must get a spot in this competition for those under fifty!"
Muxi looked at his brother's resolute profile, feeling both moved and sad.
She knew that her brother carried the hopes of the entire tribe - Mu Feng was the most outstanding genius in the tribe in hundreds of years.
The clan leader and elders poured all their resources into him, hoping that he could stand out in the selection of the Zixia Holy Land and gain better training resources and status for the tribe.
In the room, Gu Sheng sat cross-legged, with a faint golden halo surrounding him.
The Yang Dao technique was running in his body, and every meridian was burning hot yet contained infinite power.
"The third level of Yang Dao is not so easy to break through."
Gu Sheng sighed inwardly, beads of sweat oozing out of his forehead.
He deliberately suppressed his breath to prevent the energy fluctuations during cultivation from leaking out.
After all, there are many cultivators living in this inn. If people find out that he is practicing such a domineering technique, it will inevitably cause unnecessary trouble.
Just as he was concentrating on guiding the true energy in his body, there was a sudden noise outside the door.
"Mr. Qin, what do you think of this one? It has the best location and a wide view!"
A flattering voice came.
"Great, great, this is the one! Waiter, open the door!"
Another arrogant voice ordered.
This was followed by a burst of kicking at the door and unbridled laughter.
Gu Sheng frowned slightly. It is most taboo to be disturbed during cultivation, not to mention that he is at a critical stage at the moment.
His true energy became disordered due to his distraction, rushing around in his meridians, causing him to feel a dull pain in his chest.
"boom!"
There was another loud bang, and the door of the next room was kicked open.
"Hahaha, Young Master Qin is so mighty!"
"Keep your voices down, I heard there are several monks living on this floor."
"What are you afraid of? My father is a strong man in the Tribulation Realm. Who in Luoyun City dares not to give me face?"
The voice called Qin Shao was even more arrogant.
Gu Sheng slowly finished his exercise. The golden halo gradually dissipated, and he opened his eyes, with a cold look in them.
"It seems that if I don't teach these playboys a lesson, I won't be able to continue practicing today."
He stood up and pushed the door open, only to see five or six young men in luxurious clothes standing in the corridor. Leading them was a haughty-looking young man who was directing his men to kick open the doors of the guest rooms one by one.
"Have you guys quarreled enough?"
Gu Sheng's voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone.
The group of people were stunned, and then burst into laughter.
"Hey, isn't there someone trying to be a hero?"
Young Master Qin looked Gu Sheng up and down, and seeing that he was dressed in ordinary clothes, his contempt grew even stronger.
"Kid, do you know who I am? Go back to your room if you know what's best for you and don't mind your own business!"
Gu Sheng had no expression on his face.
"I don't care who you are, leave this floor right now, or..."
"What else?"
Qin Shao took a step forward provocatively.
"Do you still dare to do it?"
Gu Sheng stopped talking nonsense, raised his right hand slightly, and an invisible force of energy instantly knocked Qin Shao away, and he hit the wall heavily.
"Master Qin!"
Several followers exclaimed, then pounced on Gu Sheng viciously.
"court death!"
Gu Sheng snorted coldly, waved his sleeves, and a powerful amount of true energy surged out, knocking all of them to the ground.
Qin Shao struggled to get up, his face pale.
"You are a Jindan cultivator?"
Gu Sheng did not answer, but raised his hand and formed a seal. Several golden lights shot out from his fingertips and turned into ropes that tied up several people tightly.
"Since you like to make noise, just stay quiet."
Gu Sheng waved his hand, dragged several people into his room and threw them in the corner.
"Do you know who my father is?"
Although Qin Shao was controlled, he still refused to give in.
"He is a powerful person in the Tribulation Realm! If you dare to do this to me, he will not let you go!"
Gu Sheng glanced at him.
"It is precisely because I know who your father is that I did not kill him. However."
His eyes turned cold.
"If you keep talking nonsense, I don't mind destroying your cultivation first."
Young Master Qin suddenly became silent, with fear in his eyes.
He was able to dominate Luoyun City because of his father's reputation. If his cultivation was really destroyed...
Seeing that they were obedient, Gu Sheng sat cross-legged again and continued to practice. But he was more careful this time, not only hiding his aura, but also using his spiritual sense to monitor Qin Shao and others.
"How dare this Gu Sheng humiliate me like this!"
Young Master Qin lowered his head, a flash of resentment in his eyes.
"When dad comes, I will make sure he wishes he could neither live nor die!"
But on the surface, he did not dare to show any hostility.
After a day and a night, Gu Sheng finally quit his training. He still hadn't broken through to the third level of Yang Dao, but his true essence was more condensed than before.
He stood up, stretched his muscles, and looked at the people sleeping in the corner.
"You're lucky."
Gu Sheng whispered to himself. If he hadn't been concerned about the strength of Qin Shao's father, with his character, he would never have let these playboys go so easily.
He pushed the door open and happened to see the backs of Mufeng and Muxi, brother and sister, hurriedly leaving the inn.
"Where are they going so early?"
Gu Sheng thought about it for a moment.
"Are you going to the auction as well?"
But on second thought, with the wealth of the Mufeng siblings, they probably couldn't even afford the admission fee to the auction, the most they could do was to go there to broaden their horizons.
Shaking his head, Gu Sheng walked towards Ling Xiao's room and knocked on the door gently.
"Ling Xiao, it's time to set off."
After a while, the door opened and Ling Xiao walked out with a tired look on his face.
"So early? The auction doesn't start at noon."
Before he could finish his words, he saw several people tied up in Gu Sheng's room and his eyes widened immediately.
"What is this?" "A few ignorant dandies are disturbing my practice."
Gu Sheng said lightly.
Ling Xiao walked into the room and his expression changed slightly after seeing Qin Shao's face clearly.
"Isn't this the second-generation rich kid from the Qin family? Give him to..."
"It's just a temporary detention."
Gu Sheng interrupted him.
"His father is in the Tribulation Realm, there is no need to make a mortal enemy."
Ling Xiao was amazed.
"I would say you were too gentle.
This kind of dandy boy should be taught a lesson."
Gu Sheng shook his head.
"This is Luoyun City, his father's territory. We are here for the auction, so let's not cause any trouble."
"Too."
Ling Xiao shrugged and then asked curiously.
"How is your training going? Have you made any progress in your Yang Dao?"
Gu Sheng sighed.
"Progress is slow. The Yang Dao technique is extremely powerful, and each breakthrough requires a lot of accumulation."
When Ling Xiao heard this, there was an imperceptible relaxation in his eyes.
"Take your time. There's no rush. Let's go and see the auction at Tianyun Pavilion."
The two left the inn and headed towards Tianyun Pavilion in the city center. Luoyun City was already bustling in the early morning, with shops opening one after another on both sides of the street and more and more people passing by.
"Speaking of which, have you noticed the Mufeng siblings?"
Gu Sheng suddenly asked.
Ling Xiao nodded.
"I saw them heading toward the city center. Why, do you suspect them?"
“It just feels like a coincidence.”
Gu Sheng said calmly.
"But they probably don't have anything valuable on them. They probably just went to the auction to watch the fun."
Ling Xiao smiled.
"Maybe he has some adventure. The thing that the cultivation world lacks the least is opportunity."
Gu Sheng did not comment and asked instead.
"What do you know about this auction?"
"I heard there are some good magic weapons and elixirs."
Ling Xiao said excitedly.
"Especially the last piece, which is said to have been excavated from ancient ruins. Even the treasure appraisers of Tianyun Pavilion can't tell its origin."
Gu Sheng nodded without saying anything more.
He was not very interested in these. After all, he had seen real treasures in the treasure house of Tianlan Holy Land.
But for the sake of the possible item, he decided to take the trip.
"Two earth-level spirit swords are enough to qualify."
At the entrance of Tianyun Pavilion, an old man with white hair and beard took the long sword handed over by Ling Xiao, flicked the sword lightly with his fingertips, and the crisp sound of the sword echoed in the air.
The old man nodded slightly and handed Ling Xiao a jade plate with the word "five" engraved on it.
"Fifth floor?"
Ling Xiao took the jade token and frowned slightly.
“We are too.”
Gu Sheng gently pulled Ling Xiao's sleeve and interrupted him.
“The fifth floor is just right, with a wide view.”
Ling Xiao curled his lips, but still followed Gu Sheng into Tianyun Pavilion. As soon as they stepped through the gate, a rich spiritual energy rushed over them, which lifted their spirits.
The interior of Tianyun Pavilion is a circular structure with five floors. The space becomes smaller as you go up, but the view becomes better.
In the center of the lowest level is a circular auction table surrounded by tiered seating.
"The fifth floor is on the east side."
A maid respectfully led the way and took them through the crowd.
Gu Sheng's eyes swept across the pavilion, observing his surroundings calmly.
The interior decoration of Tianyun Pavilion is luxurious but not tacky, and the walls are inlaid with automatically luminous pearls.
Each floor is connected by suspended jade steps, and cultivators walk up and down the steps from time to time.
"What a pity! If we could go to the third floor, we might be able to see the auction items more clearly."
Ling Xiao lowered his voice, with regret in his tone.
Gu Sheng chuckled.
"The third floor is too conspicuous. The fifth floor is just right. You can see the whole scene clearly without attracting attention."
Led by the maid, the two came to the east side of the fifth floor.
The seats here are arranged in a semicircle, and there is a small table in front of each seat, on which are placed spiritual tea and spiritual fruit.
Gu Sheng chose a seat by the side, from which he could clearly see the auction table and most of the seats.
"You're always so cautious."
Ling Xiao shook his head helplessly, but still sat down.
Gu Sheng did not answer, his attention was attracted by a pair of siblings who had just entered Tianyun Pavilion.
The man was tall, with dark skin, and was wearing clothes made of animal skins. The woman looked much thinner and had a pale face, and needed the man's support when she walked.
"Is that someone from a primitive tribe?"
Ling Xiao followed Gu Sheng's line of sight and said in surprise.
"How did they get in?"
Gu Sheng narrowed his eyes.
“Those who can enter Tianyun Pavilion must either be powerful or have treasures.
There must be something on them.”
The brother and sister were arranged in the corner of the fifth floor, almost separating them from Gu Sheng and the others by the entire circular hall.
The woman started coughing after she sat down. The man quickly took out a small bottle from his arms and poured out a pill for her to take.
"interesting."
Gu Sheng whispered to himself, quietly releasing his thoughts, extending them in the direction of the brother and sister.
Thoughts penetrate the noisy crowd and transmit the distant conversation back clearly.
"Brother, can we really find the life-extending herb this time?"
The woman's voice was weak but hopeful.
"Muxi, don't worry."
The man whispered comfortingly.
"Even if we don't have it this time, we will go to the Fairyland to look for it. I promised you that I would definitely cure your illness."
"But the fairyland is too dangerous."
Muxi's voice trembled.
"I don't want you to take risks for me."
Mu Feng held his sister's hand.
"Silly girl, you are my only relative. Even if it costs me my life, I will let you live."
Gu Sheng's mind trembled slightly, this conversation reminded him of his sister.
He hasn't seen his sister since the incident three years ago, and he doesn't know how she is doing now.
"what happened?"
Ling Xiao noticed that Gu Sheng looked strange.
Gu Sheng withdrew his thoughts and asked after pondering for a moment.
"Have you ever heard of the life-extending herb?"
"Life-extending spiritual herb?"
Ling Xiao frowned and thought.
"Never heard of it. Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"
"The brother and sister were talking about this just now."
Gu Sheng pointed to a corner in the distance.
"It seems to be some kind of life-saving elixir."
Ling Xiao looked in the direction and shook his head.
"Primitive tribes always have some strange legends. But since we can enter Tianyun Pavilion, the magical herbs they talk about may really appear."
Gu Sheng nodded and looked around the room again. At this time, 70% of the seats in Tianyun Pavilion were already occupied. The fourth and fifth floors were almost full, and people began to take seats on the third floor. (End of this chapter)
