Tao and Heaven

Chapter 182: The Nine-foot Golden Man, as Powerful as the Sun

The Basah Demon Saint has a slender body, and its head is as sharp as a spear, and it looks like a thousand-foot-long arrow flying towards Gu Wen at high speed.

A purple-blue sword light flew down, and Xiao Yunyi slashed the top of the Basashi's head with his sword. A dazzling light burst out between the tip of the sword and the snake's head.

when!
A deafening crash sounded throughout the cave in an instant. Xiao Yunyi's arm broke and blood gushed out. The Basah Demon Saint stopped, his eyes gloomy, and the snake's body circled and rushed towards Gu Wen from another direction.

Xiao Yunyi naturally would not do as he wished. He controlled the sword with his mind, and the Half-Immortal Sword soared and moved, with sword light thousands of feet long. All the monsters scattered wherever it passed.

Then he turned his head to look at Tu Shanyun, whose figure was ghostly. His broken right arm flew out and turned into a stream of light like a peerless immortal sword, heading straight for his face, brushing past his neck and leaving a bloody mark.

"What kind of swordsmanship?"

Tu Shanyun covered her neck with her hands. She watched the broken arm flying in the air like a flying sword, and her soul was polluted.

Stab it!

The sound of thunder poured into her right ear, and Chanxi slapped her with her palm, carrying with it a tremendous amount of thunder, and Tu Shanyun had to stop again.

She could only turn around and shout, "Longgong Longtai, I'll hold them back, you go and kill that Hongchen, you must not leave him here, or it will be a disaster, and he will also cut off your path to invincibility in the future."

In fact, Ao Heng is the strongest here, with an 87th Dao base and true dragon bloodline, and his explosive power is equivalent to that of a half-immortal. But this kid is very smart and has been slacking off, and they can't force him because of their status.

Ao Heng's eyes were slightly cold. He thought for a long time but did not act immediately.

Because the situation was hopeless at this moment. From the moment Bai Dixun was defeated by Gu Wen, the spirits of the monsters had been lost.

Everyone obeyed the orders of the masters of the various caves and came here. If they ran away directly, they would certainly be severely punished, but at least they would not lose their lives. One man guards the pass and ten thousand men cannot open it. Sometimes, it is all about momentum.

Although Gu Wen is not invincible, there are very few monsters who dare to attack him nowadays.

Do I have to be the cushion?
Ao Heng was naturally unwilling to do so. This mentality could be applied to any genius of the demon clan. Their lives are also lives, and everyone has spiritual wisdom.

"Kill him, and I'll give you a chance."

The vine monster's voice was heard, and almost at the same time, Ao Heng shot out like a flying sword, while Jun Yan, who had grown a new body on the other side, threw out beads of blood.

Boom!

In an instant, blood explosions spread throughout the entire cave, and the aftermath killed countless monsters.

Ao Heng was pulled by the sticky blood, but it only lasted for a few breaths. Red clouds and mist surrounded his body and he regained his ability to move. He continued to rush forward despite his injuries.

Jun Yan threw out more blood explosion beads again, and there was another series of chain explosions.

Did he kill all the humans? Why are there so many blood sacrifices?!

Ao Heng's face was filled with black lines. The demon cultivator opposite him was not his opponent at all, but he had many tricks and seemed to be proficient in everything.

From his fight with the fox demon saint, we can see that his strength is not very strong, and he does not have the almost abnormal attacking power of Gu Wen. But he is difficult to deal with. You can beat him, but you can't kill him.

If Gu Wen's attack was at its peak, and Chi Yuzi's body was sanctified, then Jun Yan's was the specialization in Taoism.

He contains the souls of the mighty powers of Buddhism, Taoism and Demonism in his body. In addition to the core inheritance of such core elements as the method of becoming an immortal, Jun Yan also knows the skills and methods of all sects.

Jun Yan's eyes darkened slightly, and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat. He transmitted his thoughts, "Hong Chen, it's time to go. Are you trying to take Chi Yuzi away? She is only breathing her last breath now. Even if you bring her back, it will most likely be a corpse. It's not worth it."

not worth it?

It's really not worth it.

Gu Wen is able to weigh the pros and cons and understands Jun Yan the best.

Just as he had previously evaluated him, Jun Yan was the "Wen Hou" of the cultivation world, a profit-seeking tycoon. However, unlike Gu Wen, Jun Yan obviously did not know how to behave.

His heart is even darker than mine.

He replied through telepathy: "A king with loyal ministers will not lose his country. A father with loyal sons will not lose his family. Jun Yan, you are indeed a loyal son, but I must save her, even if I have to die, I have to wait until I die."

"I am your father." Jun Yan's face darkened, and then he said, "Let's talk about the facts. You have to listen even if the words are unpleasant. I can only delay Ao Heng for a while. The others have also reached their limits. Not everyone has your ability to defeat the enemy by crossing several levels."

Gu Wen is a special case. There is a saying that being invincible at the same level is a genius, defeating an enemy of a higher level is a prodigy, and defeating an enemy of a higher level is a peerless prodigy.

But in fact, when it comes to the second stage, everyone is not talking about defeating the enemy, but competing.

To put it bluntly, the only way to avoid being beaten to death is to be a peerless genius. How could Gu Wen go up and kill someone with one sword and then be compared to a peerless genius?

"Give me a quarter of an hour."

In the distance, Gu Wen had already arrived in front of the stairs, and then stepped on them without hesitation. The boundless pressure caused his knees to bend slightly, and he could only lift his legs by concentrating the golden light spell.

Seeing this, Jun Yan said again:
"This Nine-Nine Extreme Stage is just like the Ten Thousand Swords Dao of Tianquan Mountain. It is the manifestation of the Dao rhyme of the Golden Elixir Saint. You need the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir to climb up. Can you still break through in the middle of a battle?"

“I can’t break through, but I can climb up.”

Gu Wen stepped up the stairs step by step, his black clothes, which were torn from the fight, shimmering with golden light.

What is needed for the Nine-Nine Steps is the Golden Light Mantra, but it is not wrong to say it is the Nine-Turn Golden Pill, because only the Nine-Turn Golden Pill can use the complete form of the Golden Light Mantra.

Now Gu Wen only has the eighth level of golden elixir. According to common sense, he cannot climb up. It is very likely that halfway is already the limit.

The monsters came like a tide, and the Basah Demon Saint and the Nine-tailed Demon Fox attacked frequently.

Ao Heng's dragon tail swung Jun Yan down, and the ground cracked with a loud bang. Jun Yan vomited blood and roared angrily: "We don't have your ability. If we delay too long, we may be beaten to death. Chi Yuzi is already useless. She can't be saved. How long are you going to be willful?!"

"Jun Yan, when it's your turn later, you will also hope that I will be willful. I don't blame you for running away a quarter of an hour ago. If you run away again a quarter of an hour later, I will save you in the same way in the future."

Gu Wen kept walking, his voice calm and firm.

He must bring Akabane down, as long as she is still alive. This has nothing to do with interests, nor good or bad, it is something that must be done.

It is his responsibility as a leader to exercise power and be responsible for the source of power. A team must distribute benefits when it makes a profit and give up benefits when it takes risks.

"I have to save her, regardless of whether it's good or bad."

Jun Yan was stunned. He didn't expect that the reason Gu Wen gave was no longer a favor or an exchange, but the most disdainful thing in the magic world: "putting yourself in someone else's shoes."

If it is his turn in the future, does he hope Gu Wen will save him?

Of course he hopes so, but Jun Yan doesn't believe that someone would save him at all costs. He was born without a father or a mother, so how could he still trust others now?

But now Gu Wen is fulfilling Akabane's promise.

At this moment, Ao Heng flew towards the Temple of Heaven again. Jun Yan was silent for a moment, sighed slightly, and there seemed to be endless demonic shadows rolling in his eyes.

"Help me again, old man."

As the voice fell, Jun Yan was surrounded by the aura of demon, corpse and evil. His aura rose from the seventh level to the eighth level in one step. He took a step and moved a thousand meters, grabbed the tail of the green dragon, and suddenly swung it backwards.

The Azure Dragon turned around and bit Jun Yan, making a clanging sound as if biting into fine iron. Endless corpse qi rushed into Ao Heng's mouth, filling his mouth with a bitter and smelly taste, corroding his body and soul.

"Half-immortal?"

Ao Heng made a prompt decision to retreat, his face full of solemnity.

The aura of the strange human in front of him had completely changed, as if he had been possessed by another being, and the one who possessed him was a demigod.

Jun Yan looked very different at this moment. His eyes were dark, his face was pale, his skin was covered with blue veins, and he had black nails on his hands.

He stuck out his tongue, licked the remaining dragon blood between his fingernails, and laughed crazily:

"Hehehe, I didn't expect that our little Jun Yan still has some humanity left. He can even be trusted. How ridiculous and pathetic! I want to see who on earth is that can earn your trust."

Looking up, I saw a man in a plain black robe ascending the Temple of Heaven. His figure was wrapped in golden light and the surrounding space was visibly squeezed and distorted.

It seemed as if there was a mysterious force coming from the sky, and the aura of Tao instantly caused dark cracks to appear in the void.

The surrounding Tao rhythm turned into an invisible shadow, as if a giant was using his palms as a wall to block his way.

The Sky Corpse laughed mercilessly, "Eight-turn Golden Elixir wants to ascend to heaven? What's more, the Golden Elixir Supreme Saint who is becoming an immortal has also sent me the Dao Yun. Even if he has a Ninth-turn Golden Elixir, he probably can't ascend."

Then, his mouth shape changed, and Jun Yan's voice returned to normal as he said, "Old man, just take care of this long worm."

"Hehehe, so what if I laugh? You little guys, you think you are talented and always look down on others. Who wasn't a genius when he was young?"

In Tianshi's view, Gu Wen was like an egg hitting a rock. He was indeed extremely talented as he could cultivate the eighth-level golden elixir, but it was too foolish for him to challenge the Dao Yun of the Golden Elixir Saint.

There is a difference in strengths and weaknesses. When the Supreme Saint of the Golden Elixir asks about the path to immortality, how can anyone else be better than him?
The next moment, a clear and mysterious sound was heard.

"The Xuanzong of Heaven and Earth has the root of all things. I have cultivated it for thousands of kalpas and proved my magical power. Within and outside the three realms, only Tao is the most respected."

Golden light suddenly surged from Gu Wen's body, and strands of golden light were woven like silk, covering his calves, thighs, abdomen, and chest.

He already knew the Golden Light Mantra, but he lacked the Nine-Transformation Golden Elixir as a foundation. Without magic power eighty-one times greater than that of others, it was difficult for him to perform it.

Difficult to perform does not mean it is impossible to perform, at least for Gu Wen.

But the reason why a peerless person is peerless is that he can achieve heights that ordinary people cannot do and mediocre people cannot reach.

He would use his body of Eighth-Turn Golden Elixir to display the magical power of Ninth-Turn Golden Elixir.

"There is golden light in my body, which reflects my body."

As the voice fell, golden light spread across his face and a golden man appeared. He blasted away the Tao rhyme with one punch and stepped onto the Temple of Heaven across the thirty steps in one step.

The golden man stood high on the Temple of Heaven, looking back slightly and glancing down with his peripheral vision.

At this moment, Tianshi closed his mouth silently. After the murderous intent of the two demon saints, Bashe and Tushanyun, reached its peak, they began to feel timid.

Gu Wen retracted his gaze, took a step forward, and walked towards the girl lying in a pool of blood in front of him. His spiritual sense reached out to touch the faint human soul trapped in the flesh.

"Akabane, are you still alive?"

"Not dead yet."

There was no emotional fluctuation in Akabane's mind.

"But you probably won't live long. You shouldn't come up here. The Three Pure Ones can take you away."

Gu Wen came to Chiyuzi. At this moment, the flesh and blood in the girl's empty chest were wriggling. The blood was no longer flowing out, and dense blood vessels formed.

Even without a heart, blood is still able to be transported throughout the body.

What a strong vitality and survival instinct, just like how she has come along the way, to be on the third list with only one soul and one spirit missing and be called a genius.

Even if she hadn't come up, Akabane wouldn't have died from her injuries. Until now, she was still alive, still breathing as hard as she could.

Gu said gently: "I'll take you with me."

"I don't want to move."

"You don't need to move, I'll carry you down."

Gu Wen leaned over and picked up Chi Yuzi. Her body, about 1.5 meters tall, was very small and could be completely curled up in the golden man's arms. She was wrapped in rays of golden light, and when she was completely integrated into the golden light, she couldn't help but burst out with golden light.

Golden light shot up into the sky. The golden man was only nine feet tall at first, but then he began to climb steadily, one zhang, three zhang, six zhang, and nine zhang!
At first, Gu Wen could not be seen under the Temple of Heaven, but now, as the golden man continues to expand, half of his body can be seen.

Nine is the ultimate; the nine-zhang golden body and the golden light mantra are the pinnacle of perfection.

The nine-zhang golden man looked back, his eyes were like red clouds, and his boundless power was pouring down like the blazing sun, the Eighty-Seven Dao Foundation!
