The fake prince was exposed at the beginning, and I took office as emperor on the spot

Chapter 82 Uncle
Gu Fangchen took the guiding copper coin and watched it floating in his palm. Among the four characters "Yong'an Tongbao", only the character "An" was stained with blood, pointing to the direction where Gu Lianxian was.

This stone forest is located in Shimen Road, one of the four roads in the southwest, and covers a very large area.

The terrain here is steep, with endless mountains and 90-degree vertical cliffs, so few people live here.

Immortal sects don't like to establish sects in such places. In the entire Shimendao, there are only a few small and relatively remote sects.

After all, a large sect first needs a large amount of resources to support its disciples, so it either chooses a more prosperous central area or an environment with abundant water and grass.

For example, Donglong County in Liuhuadao, where Jiange is located, is an important waterway transportation hub adjacent to Donglong Lake, which can support the sustainable development of a thousand-year-old sect.

This Shimen Road has nothing to do with either.

However, thousands of years ago, the terrain here was not like this.

This is recorded in the branch storyline of "The Sword in the Stone".

The numerous stone pillars that make up the vast stone forest are actually a sealed sword tomb.

Each stone pillar represents a sword of at least high quality.

In the original game, it was a few years later that Jiange discovered something strange about this place and asked players to come and investigate. This was part of Jiange's main storyline.

Finally, it was discovered that buried beneath the stone forest was a long-destroyed ancient Zhou sect.

"The Great Dao Sword Palace".

Underground is a large dungeon full of dangers and opportunities.

The entrance to the dungeon is nearby.

"According to the time, the people from the Demon Cult should have arrived..."

"Xu Zhenguan has probably already come into contact with them by now, right?"

Gu Fangchen glanced back, his expression unchanged:

"I hope people are okay."

Alas, it would be very sad and unbearable to put pressure on a good bro!

But only in this way can Xu Zhenguan significantly improve his strength, it is really a last resort...

Since ancient times, those who have accomplished great things must first have suffered in their hearts and minds and worked hard in their bodies.

Lao Duoyi can only bear with it.

My heart aches!

After feeling the pain, Gu Fangchen turned around and continued running towards Gu Lianxian.

He kept his spiritual awareness alert at all times. Although he had led the people of the Demon Sect away in the chaos, at this moment, there was still a fifth-grade master to deal with.

and……

Gu Fangchen turned his head to look at his other hanging arm, which was now charred black and bloody and mangled was faintly visible.

He had said before that the Burning Energy was the Seven Injury Fist, which was extremely powerful and could hurt others as well as oneself.

When activated with the Thousand Tribulations Silk, the damage is 1+1>2.

This hand is currently temporarily disabled.

His current real strength is only the sixth rank which he has just been promoted to.

Although he could kill a sixth-grade cultivator instantly with the Thousand Tribulations Silk and the Burning Energy, the price was also very high.

And for a grandmaster, the killing power is not enough.

The fifth-grade Grandmaster is at the Dan Heart Realm.

The so-called "red-heartedness" refers to the point at which a martial arts practitioner has mastered the martial arts to perfection, with a red-heartedness that reflects everything and sees through everything clearly.

The sixth level of Wudan realm is "releasing".

It is the extremely powerful military force that creates the extremely confident spirit, which can produce the thrilling aura in every gesture.

A look or a shout is enough to kill.

The state of mind for the fifth-grade elixir is "harvesting".

When one reaches this realm, his spirit becomes restrained and he appears to be just an ordinary person to others, but in reality, it is because he has perfect control over himself and can handle things with ease.

The symbol of the peak of the fifth rank is the cultivation of the physical body into the "Imperfect Golden Body". And only by cultivating the realm of the "Imperfect Golden Body" can a martial arts practitioner be considered to have the means to resist the attacks of the soul.

Because of the high concentration of energy, a layer of automatic defense is formed.

Before the body is broken, spiritual attacks below the fifth level will be weakened or even ineffective.

This is also why one can only be called a Grandmaster when one reaches the fifth level.

The reason why Shi Le was attacked with the Three Evil Needles was because his cultivation had not reached the peak of the fifth level and he had not yet cultivated the "Infallible Golden Body".

For Gu Fangchen, if the other party is at the peak of the fifth rank, then things will be a little troublesome.

His Shinto methods were ineffective, so he could only fight hard.

The best case scenario is that you can only seriously injure the opponent, but at the same time, you will most likely lose your combat effectiveness.

It would be even more difficult to break out with Gu Lianxian afterwards.

He didn't want to resort to other means unless necessary.

But if the opponent is just an ordinary fifth-grade cultivator, it would be too simple...

Gu Fangchen paused and saw a cold pond waterfall in front of him.

He narrowed his eyes and remembered that there should be a cave in this place. There was a hidden wall inside the cave, which had a formation that could isolate the aura.

"You're quite good at choosing a spot... No wonder you were able to hide for so long without being discovered."

Gu Fangchen raised his eyebrows, but did not step forward immediately. Instead, he threw the copper coin in his hand.

"Whoosh-"

The copper coin penetrated a stone pillar at an extremely fast speed and hit the stone wall behind it.

A monk, also wearing a mask, slowly walked out from behind the stone pillar.

This monk was dressed in purple and stood with his hands behind his back. Judging from his aura, he was similar to an ordinary monk of the seventh or eighth rank.

But Gu Fangchen knew that this person was the fifth-grade master who had never appeared.

——Because he didn't notice the man's trace until he got closer.

Ordinary seventh or eighth-grade cultivators cannot do this.

Gu Fangchen looked solemn as he looked the other person up and down. Noticing that the other person's right shoulder tilted slightly downward, a trace of suspicion suddenly flashed through his mind.

This shoulder seems to have a hidden injury.

However, for those with cultivation levels above the fifth rank, the physical body is close to perfection, and under normal circumstances, there will not be such obvious marks.

Unless the arm has been severely injured, to the point where it cannot be completely healed.

There are only a few masters at this level.

As far as he knew, no one inside had suffered such a serious injury to their arm...

In other words, the other party is not of the fifth rank!

Gu Fangchen's heart sank at first.

He misjudged the situation. Someone above the fifth rank was actually involved in hunting down Gu Lianxian?!
According to his original thought, these immortal sects would definitely not dare to openly snatch the "Lotus Treasure in the Womb" because of the influence of the Tara Sect and Gu Yuye.

This means that they will basically not send high-level cultivators whose identities may be exposed. The fifth level is already the limit.

Above the fourth rank, it's easy to check and find out...

But then he froze again.

Gu Fangchen was silent for a while, watching the man getting closer, and suddenly said:

"uncle?"

The man suddenly stopped in his tracks, and his originally leisurely stroll froze.
