Blind Ghostwriter: Starts with the full level of Nine Yang Magic Skill

Chapter 311 The Meeting of the Gods

Gu Mo immediately said, "Let's go and greet Elder Qi first, and then we'll go find Wang Dongli in a bit."

Gu Mo definitely needs to investigate Wang Dongli. Putting aside the fact that, according to Hongyi, Tie Tou's disappearance might be related to Wang Dongli, Gu Mo has to investigate simply because this person might be a member of the Peacock Spirit Clan.

The Peacock Spirit Clan is the guardian spirit clan of the Seven-Colored Peacock in the Thirteen Forbidden Zones, similar to the relationship between the Fish Clan of the Northern Desert and the Fire Qilin.

Does Gu Mo have wanted information for the Seven-Colored Peacock in his wanted list?

[Wanted Target - Seven-Colored Peacock]

[Task Level - Seven Stars]

[Quest Reward - All Limitless Immortal Pills]

……

The Limitless Immortal Pill, from the novel "The Legend of the Divine Land," consists of fourteen pills. It is a top-grade elixir, with each pill increasing one's internal strength by sixty years. It can also break through martial arts bottlenecks, resolve conflicts between different martial arts, and has the miraculous effects of being immune to all poisons and saving lives.

……

Fourteen Limitless Immortal Pills would have almost no effect on Gu Mo now, but they would be of great help to Gu Chudong.

The fourteen Limitless Immortal Pills are not only capable of increasing one's cultivation by over eight hundred years, but more importantly, they can harmonize martial arts, break through bottlenecks, and elevate one's cultivation level. Gu Mo speculates that once all fourteen Limitless Immortal Pills are refined, one should be able to directly reach the Physical Ascension Realm.

……

At this moment, Tianqin Mountain was in chaos. However, Qi Tianshu left directly, leaving Shang Buyu, the current sect leader of Canglan Sword Sect, to organize people from various sects to go to the sect's main mountain.

Seeing that Qi Tianshu had left, Gu Mo and the others quickly followed suit, heading directly to the summit of Canglan Mountain on the Cloud Cliff Plank Road. As soon as they arrived, they saw two other veteran masters of the Canglan Sword Sect, Ye Liuyun and Chen Shu, standing in front of the thatched hut. It was obvious that they were there to protect Qi Tianshu during his cultivation journey.

"Hero Gu, Heroine Gu, and the girl in red!"

Ye Liuyun and Chen Shu stepped forward and bowed with their hands clasped in greeting.

Gu Mo and the others returned the greeting with clasped hands. Gu Mo then asked, "What is the current situation of Elder Qi?"

Ye Liuyun and Chen Shu both knew that Gu Mo and Qi Tianchu had a good relationship, so they didn't hide anything. Ye Liuyun said directly, "The situation isn't very good..."

at this time,

The door to the thatched hut opened, and Qi Tianchu's voice came from inside: "Come in!"

Immediately, Gu Mo and his group entered the thatched hut and saw Qi Tianchu sitting cross-legged on a huge block of ice, his face pale, practicing his internal energy to heal his injuries. White mist rose from the entire room.

Gu Mo stepped forward and chuckled, "You did quite a show off at Tianqin Mountain just now, but the price of that show off wasn't small!"

Qi Tianchu smiled helplessly and said, "I didn't expect that Wang Dongli would have such a skill in primordial spirit techniques. If it weren't for that sword, I wouldn't have been able to use my sword technique of facing death and living."

My "Life-or-Death Sword Technique" has remained unlearned until now. It's a life-or-death swordsmanship, but I haven't truly fought it myself yet, so I don't even know how powerful it is.

Gu Mo asked in surprise, "You didn't use your full strength just now?"

Qi Tianchu chuckled and said, "If you had used all your strength, you wouldn't be talking to me now, but saying goodbye to my corpse. I only used 30% of my strength just now."

The reason I call my swordsmanship a life-or-death swordsmanship is because it emphasizes inflicting a thousand damages on the enemy while inflicting eight hundred on myself. The greater the force used, the greater the damage. Once more than 50% of the force is used, irreparable damage will occur. For internal and external injuries below 50%, they can basically be recovered after one treatment and three to five months of rest.

However, if the force exceeds 50%, the injuries will be irreversible; and if the full force is used, death will occur instantly, beyond even the help of a god.

Gu Mo curled his lips, took out a silver needle and inserted it into Qi Tianshu's acupoints, then circulated his internal energy to help him heal. While circulating his energy, he complained, "No wonder Su Qianqiu and Zhang Daoyi both think that your swordsmanship has gone astray, but they both have a very high opinion of your swordsmanship. However, your swordsmanship is a bit useless. You can't use it more than a few times in your whole life!"

Qi Tianchu chuckled and said, "It is indeed a bit of a chicken rib, but it is very useful. I have used it five times. The first time was against Jiang Ruoxu, where I used 40% of my strength. After that, it was against Zhang Daoyi and Su Qianqiu, where I only used 30% of my strength. Although I lost all of them, none of them dared to provoke me. That is the significance. Today is the fifth time, and I have defeated a powerful enemy. That is also significant."

Because of what happened when I was young, I always lacked a sense of security. Later, I was taken in by my master, but not long after, I learned that she was going to get married. During the years I followed her, I always lacked a sense of security.

It is for this reason that I do not believe there is ever a permanent number one in the world. Therefore, I do not strive to be number one, but I must possess the ability to take anyone in the world down with me. Thus, the sword that lives towards death was born.

"Impressive!" Gu Mo exclaimed. "However, didn't you say at Tianqin Mountain that you had only used it four times in your life? How come it's now five times? And you didn't say when you used it the fourth time."

Qi Tianshu said, "Weren't you by my side when I used it for the fourth time? You forgot that last year in Qingyi Village, my master's spirit was possessed by evil thoughts and his body was taken over by demons. Although it was only a small part of his spirit, it was still the power of his primordial spirit. Without using this sword of facing death to live, I would not have been able to kill the evil thoughts."

"I see."

Gu Mo suddenly realized.

Last year, the divine consciousness left behind by Yu Jinghong in Qingyi Village was replaced by evil thoughts, and in the end, she did indeed die under Qi Tianshu's sword.

However, at that time, Gu Mo himself had only recently achieved the Nascent Soul Realm and did not understand this aspect of the matter very well, so he did not find anything strange about it. Now that he thinks about it, Qi Tianshu's skill was truly remarkable. He killed a Nascent Soul Realm expert with a mortal sword, something that Su Qianqiu and Zhang Daoyi could not do.

But, thinking back to that incident,
Gu Mo felt it was a pity that such an extraordinary woman as Yu Jinghong was wasted.

He had actually sensed Bai Yujing's problem decades ago and had even split off a wisp of his primordial spirit in advance to wait for his reincarnated self to recover his memories.

Unfortunately, Bai Yujing didn't use the reincarnation of the primordial spirit at all. Instead, he archived and controlled the primordial spirit and then copied a fake one.

If Bai Yujing truly reincarnated the primordial spirit, then the little Bai from Penglai Island was indeed Yu Jinghong's second life, and now she could definitely reach the complete Ascension Realm.

At this moment, Qi Tianshu said again, "Wang Dongli is really amazing. His sword strike used the power of his primordial spirit. In our era, only Jiang Ruoxu had reached that level of power."

"If it weren't for you appearing in this era, I think he might very well have become the greatest in the world. It's a pity he was born at the wrong time. Oh, by the way, weren't you observing him? Is that kid a born saint?"

Gu Mo shook his head slightly and said, "I didn't see anything. I came here to say goodbye. I need to investigate this Wang Dongli."

"Is there a problem?" Qi Tianchu asked, puzzled.

Gu Mo said, "Didn't I tell you a couple of days ago that I'm here to investigate a case? But I don't have any leads, so I'm relying on the fortune teller in red to solve the case. Now the divination seems to be related to Wang Dongli, so I have to go find Wang Dongli."

Qi Tianchu nodded and said, "Alright, go ahead!"

"Let's stabilize your injuries first!"

Immediately, Gu Mo quickly inserted several needles into Qi Tianshu's body, channeling his powerful true energy into Qi Tianshu's body and circulating it for a full cycle. Then he stopped and said, "You won't have to wait three to five months; you'll be able to recover in half a month at most."

Qi Tianchu briefly assessed his physical condition and exclaimed in surprise, "Your medical skills are truly remarkable! I never expected that not only are your martial arts skills so high, but your medical skills are also unparalleled!"

"It's alright. If you encounter any difficult problems in the future, you can come to me. Don't worry, I'll give you a friendly price!"

Gu Mo smiled, and while putting away the silver needles, he added, "However, I still have to remind you that your body is not what it used to be. You might have been able to use 50% of your strength before, but now, I'm afraid even 40% of your strength would cause irreparable damage."

Furthermore, I sensed two strange energies within you... Hmm, anyway, try to avoid using your "Life-or-Death Sword," you should understand. Goodbye!

After all,

Gu Mo put away the silver needles, waved his hand, and left with Gu Chudong and Hongyi.

Shen Bai quickly saw them off.

In the thatched hut, three fellow disciples, Qi Tianshu, Ye Liuyun, and Chen Shu, remained.

Only after Gu Mo and his group had completely disappeared into the snowstorm did Ye Liuyun turn to look at Qi Tianchu and ask in confusion, "Senior brother, did Master Gu see something? His last words seemed to have a hidden meaning!"

Qi Tianchu chuckled and said, "He just said that he sensed two streams of energy in my body and told me not to use the Sword of Life and Death. He must have realized that those two streams of energy came from the Sword of Life and Death. As for that last meaningful sentence, it may just be a simple reminder that the Sword of Life and Death has drawbacks."

However, it cannot be ruled out that he might know I am practicing the Great Sun Demon Art, but he simply chooses not to reveal it.

After all, he is the number one in the world. He was able to defeat the First and Second Island Lords on Penglai Island, indicating he stands at a very high level and has access to a great deal of information. Many things that seem extraordinary to us are probably just ordinary to him.

……

on the other side,
Shen Bai escorted Gu Mo and the others down the mountain.

Shen Bai was reluctant to part with Gu Mo, and kept talking to him for a long time before letting him go.

"come back next time!"

Gu Mo waved his hand, then mounted his horse and rode away.

Hongyi and Gu Chudong followed Gu Mo on either side. Hongyi suddenly said, "My lord, I suddenly remembered something. Qi Tianshu is acting strangely."

Gu Mo asked, "What's wrong?"

The woman in red said, "The 'Sword of Living Through Death' isn't recorded in Bai Yujing's records. Qi Tianshu visited Penglai Island twice to see Bai Yujing. Theoretically, Bai Yujing should have been able to detect his strongest martial art and deduce it. I could have checked before, but both times Qi Tianshu deduces Bai Yujing's 'Azure Sea Heavenly Sword.' This means that Bai Yujing's detection was hindered or he was deceived. Theoretically, Qi Tianshu shouldn't have this ability."

Gu Mo nodded slightly and said, "I just understood when I was treating Elder Qi's injuries. His 'Life on the Brink of Death' sword formed two energies, one of death and one of life, one bright and one dark, coexisting and complementing each other."

Gu Chudong asked doubtfully, "Isn't that just like Ye Chen's bad luck and good luck?"

Gu Mo chuckled and said, "That's right. When I was giving him acupuncture, I discovered that his ribs were actually connected as one whole. Ordinary people have 12 pairs of independent bones, arranged symmetrically on the left and right, with each rib separated by intercostal spaces to form a movable thoracic structure. But Qi Tianshu's ribs were all connected as one whole."

Gu Chudong asked, puzzled, "Brother, what does this mean?"

Gu Mo said, "This is the legendary double-sided ribs."

"A born saint?" Gu Chudong was surprised.

Gu Mo nodded and said, "That's right. The shape of Elder Qi's ribs is very similar to the description of the 'double ribs' in the legend of the born saint. Combined with his coexistence of life and death energies, it can be basically confirmed that he has cultivated the Great Sun Demon Art."

As the Venerable Monk Huineng previously stated, the spirit of the Great Sun Demon Art has been searching everywhere for innate saints. It's reasonable that Elder Qi, being a Saint with conjoined ribs, would obtain the Great Sun Demon Art; therefore, it's also reasonable that he could kill a primordial spirit with a mortal sword.

“Is that so?” Gu Chudong said, “Then, brother, aren’t you also a born saint? Has the Great Sun Demonic Art come looking for you?”

Gu Mo shook his head slightly and said, "Not for now."

At this point, Gu Mo had some doubts. Although his situation fit the description of the born saints in this world, and he had indeed awakened his innate wisdom, he was really unsure whether he was truly a born saint.

……

The hustle and bustle of the Canglan Mountains was left behind. Supported by his disciples, Wang Dongli silently traversed the vast mountain range.

The May sun was already scorching hot, piercing through the dense forest branches and casting dappled patterns of light on the ground, while the dryness of the soil and vegetation rose up.

His face was as pale as paper, and his clothes were soaked with dark red blood scabs. Every step he took aggravated the terrifying internal injuries left by Qi Tianchu's "living towards death" sword energy.

It was not merely a physical wound; it carried a sword intent that destroyed life force, ravaging the meridians and internal organs like a maggot clinging to bones.

Arriving at a remote mountain valley, a long-neglected mountain god temple was half-hidden among overgrown weeds and vines. Broken walls and cobwebs covered the area, with only the dilapidated statues silently shrouded in shadow.

The disciples quickly cleared a space and laid out dry grass.

"Master, please rest." The disciple looked at Wang Dongli's swaying figure with concern.

Wang Dongli nodded, sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and whispered to his disciple, "Guard the entrance well and do not allow anyone to disturb us."

The disciple responded and nervously stood guard at the dilapidated temple gate.

Wang Dongli took a deep breath and began to circulate his internal energy to heal his injuries. His internal injuries were far more severe than they appeared on the outside. Qi Tianshu's "living towards death" destructive sword intent not only severely damaged his meridians but also harmed his very essence.

However, just as Wang Dongli was channeling his energy, the blood seeping from his wounds instantly froze into tiny ice crystals upon contact with the air.

Immediately afterwards, the ice crystal hissed and burst into clusters of nearly transparent white flames!
The ice flames burned silently, lacking the heat of ordinary flames, but instead emanating a bone-chilling cold.

They clung to the wound, leaping and licking as if they were alive.

A strange scene unfolded: the muscles, blood vessels, and even broken bone fragments in the area covered by the gruesome sword wound began to grow and heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Where the icy flames burned, the charred dead skin peeled off, revealing tender new flesh underneath. Even the destructive sword intent was gradually devoured and neutralized by the icy flames.

The whole process was eerie and quiet, with only the faint "sizzling" sound of the ice flames burning being particularly clear in the silence of the dilapidated temple.

In the short time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the fatal wound on Wang Dongli's chest had mostly healed, leaving only a faint red mark.

Although his face was still pale, his breathing had become much more stable, and the stagnation caused by the destructive sword intent had subsided by seven or eight tenths. He slowly opened his eyes, a fleeting glint of icy blue light flashing in them before his usual gentle and reserved demeanor returned.

at this time,

Wang Dongli suddenly sneered, "Who are you, hiding there!"

Immediately, he picked up a tile from the ground and threw it. The tile flew through the air with tremendous force, directly piercing a large tree outside the dilapidated temple.

At this moment, a cheerful voice came from behind the tree: "Sect Leader Wang, please don't misunderstand, I have no ill intentions."

At this moment, a middle-aged man dressed in a scholar's robe emerged from behind the tree. He was quite handsome, smiled slightly, revealing his white teeth, and cupped his hands, saying, "I am Ji Wujiu, the Yellow-Character Protector of the Heavenly God Society. Seeing that you are injured, I am prepared to offer you some holy medicine for healing and to make friends!"

Ji Wujiu took out a jade bottle and said, "This is the Evergreen Pill, personally refined by the God of Medicine Wei Wuwei. It can revive the dead and heal the wounded. It is a priceless treasure. Please accept it, Sect Leader Wang!"

Wang Dongli's eyes remained calm and unwavering, merely glancing at him indifferently: "I cannot accept such a generous gift without merit. I have no connection with your Heavenly God Society and dare not accept such a heavy honor!"

"We had no connection before, but now that we're friends, isn't that enough?" Ji Wujiu chuckled softly, his voice like sandpaper scraping, and said, "Sect Leader Wang, our Heavenly God Society would very much like to be your friend. Please accept this Evergreen Pill..."

“No need,” Wang Dongli waved his hand and said, “Although your Heavenly God Society has only been established for a little over a year, I have heard about your style. We are not on the same side. You can leave.”

Ji Wujiu chuckled and said, "Alright, then I won't talk about making friends. How about we cooperate?"

“I have no reason to cooperate with you,” Wang Dongli said.

Ji Wujiu said, "Then, Sect Leader Wang isn't interested in joining forces to deal with the Canglan Sword Sect? Although you narrowly lost to Qi Tianshu today, you still made him suffer quite a bit. This is the perfect opportunity for us to join forces and uproot them completely! The Heavenly God Society is willing to lend Sect Leader Wang a hand to reclaim Canglan Mountain and restore the glory of the Misty Sword Sect!"

Wang Dongli stood up, dusted off his robes, and moved with composure. His gaze fell on Ji Wujiu's face, calm and without a ripple: "The Wang family has no grudges with the Canglan Sword Sect. Since you witnessed my battle with Elder Qi today, you should have heard what I said to Elder Qi before the battle. My grandfather lost to Elder Qi back then because he was not as skilled, and losing Canglan Mountain was also due to a bet made between us. Elder Qi also staked his martial arts manual and peerless weapon back then. As for the end, my grandfather died in depression, which was a personal matter and cannot be considered a grudge."

Ji Wujiu laughed and said, "Sect Leader Wang, there is no one else here, so you don't need to hide it like this. Your Wang family's Misty Sword Sect was so prestigious back then. Just because Qi Tianshu burned it to the ground, how could there not be any enmity? You can say those things in the martial arts world to gain a good reputation, but you can't say so much that you start to believe it yourself, can you?"

Wang Dongli sneered, "You're judging a gentleman by your own standards... We're on different paths, so please leave."

Wang Dongli refused decisively, leaving no room for negotiation.

Ji Wujiu's smile gradually froze, and his tone turned colder as he said, "Sect Leader Wang, are you determined to neither make friends nor discuss cooperation?"

Wang Dongli said in a deep voice, "I said, those who walk different paths cannot make plans together. Your style of stirring up trouble in the martial arts world is not compatible with me, Wang."

Ji Wujiu chuckled and said, "Since Sect Leader Wang knows the style of our Heavenly God Society, then you should also know that those who are unwilling to be friends with our Heavenly God Society can only become tools for our Heavenly God Society to sow discord."

Sect Leader Wang, you're a coward, terrified by Qi Tianchu and too afraid to even seek revenge. But that doesn't mean all of your Dongli Sect members are such weaklings. If you die here today, the Dongli Sect will naturally settle old scores with the Canglan Sword Sect.

As he spoke, Ji Wujiu waved.

Immediately, a dozen masked men, also dressed in black and exuding a sinister aura, silently emerged from the forest and surrounded the small, dilapidated temple, their eyes all fixed on Wang Dongli.

"Form the formation!" Ji Wujiu shouted sharply.

A dozen or so members of the Celestial God Society simultaneously roared, their hands forming strange hand seals. In an instant, a massive and malevolent suction force arose out of nowhere.

An invisible, enormous vortex seemed to appear in the air, spinning wildly around Wang Dongli and his apprentice.

The pebbles, withered leaves, and even the light on the ground were stretched and distorted.

"The Gluttonous Divine Skill!"

Wang Dongli's pupils contracted, and he pulled his disciple aside, coldly saying, "No wonder the gods would destroy the body and only keep the head when they killed someone; it turns out they were destroying the body to cover up the evidence!"

At this time,

Wang Dongli's disciple turned pale, feeling his blood surging and his inner strength uncontrollably dissipating, as if being drained by the vortex. He looked at his master in terror and stammered, "Master, save me... I..."

Wang Dongli remained as still as a rock, extending his hand to release a stream of true energy that seemed to transform into ancient ice, sealing his disciple's true energy.

The terrifying suction force of the Taotie Formation fell on the master and disciple, but it was like a mud ox sinking into the sea. Not only could it not absorb any of their essence and internal energy, but they were also attacked by an extreme cold!

"Ok?"

The cultists who had set up the formation groaned in unison, their faces flushing an unnatural redness that then turned bluish-purple.

They felt as if their internal energy had crashed into a moving iceberg. Not only could they not absorb it, but the biting coldness also caused their meridians to be reversed, and their blood and qi instantly stagnated.

"What... what kind of martial art is this? When did your Dongli Sect acquire such a martial art?" Ji Wujiu was horrified.

"I didn't want to be your enemy, but you insisted on courting death!"

Wang Dongli's voice was as cold as ice.

A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and with a flick of his wrist, his longsword was drawn.

The sword tip trembled slightly, seemingly without any trace of fire, and with a casual slash, it swept towards the center of the vortex where the invisible suction force was gathering!
"laugh--"

With a soft sound, like tearing silk or the first melting of ice, the gluttonous beast's suction force, powerful enough to devour essence, was abruptly severed by this seemingly casual sword strike.

The traction of the air suddenly collapsed, and the remaining swallowing vortex in the air let out a reluctant whimper before dissipating.

Wang Dongli touched the ground with his toes, his figure moving like a ghost as he skimmed along the ground, leaving a trail of afterimages.

The long sword pierced the air, and before the clear dragon's roar had dissipated, strange phenomena had already occurred.

Several extremely refined sword energies suddenly appeared out of thin air.

They are as thin as cicada wings, almost transparent, yet their edges shimmer with a chilling, terrifying white light. They move silently, yet faster than lightning, as if cutting through the air itself, emitting a subtle yet sharp hissing sound as they pierce through the air!

"Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff..."

The dull thud of a sharp blade slicing into flesh was exceptionally clear and jarring in the deathly silence.

The dozen or so Celestial God Society members surrounding them froze abruptly. A thin, crimson line silently appeared on their necks, then rapidly expanded and spread, eventually—

"Puff! Puff!"

One by one, heads rolled into the dust, their faces frozen in astonishment.

Hot blood, like a long-suppressed crimson fountain, suddenly gushed out from the severed neck, shooting several feet high. The pungent, nauseating stench of blood instantly exploded and spread in the sweltering air, forming a chilling blood mist.

Ji Wujiu touched the stinging bloodstain on his neck, feeling utterly terrified.

If he had been even slightly slower in dodging, his head would already be on the ground.

He couldn't understand how Wang Dongli, despite being seriously injured, still possessed such terrifying combat power.

That eerie, icy power completely suppressed the Gluttonous Divine Skill.

Without hesitation, he let out a strange cry, unleashing a torrent of internal energy that transformed him into a blurry black shadow as he fled desperately into the dense forest outside the temple!

His lightness skill was excellent, like a startled owl darting through the forest, but Wang Dongli's lightness skill was not weak either, and he kept up the chase.

Ji Wujiu was in a panic. Just then, three people slowly walked towards him on the forest path ahead.

One man and two women.

The man, dressed in a simple blue robe, had a handsome face and deep, calm eyes, as if he had come for a spring outing. The horse he was riding was carrying a large object on its back.

The woman on the left is dressed in fiery red, with an exquisitely beautiful face, but her eyes are empty and indifferent, as if she is untouched by worldly affairs.

The woman on the right is dressed in black, looking dashing and heroic, carrying a large book box on her back, with a spirited and spirited air about her.

All three had fair and delicate skin, clearly pampered young masters and ladies.

Seeing this, Ji Wujiu grasped at a straw.

A fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and he was overjoyed, thinking to himself, "Heaven is on my side! Perfect opportunity to take a hostage!"

His speed increased rather than decreased. His withered, claw-like right hand, accompanied by a chilling wind, hooked its five fingers and made a sharp, piercing sound as it viciously grabbed at the shoulder of the seemingly most "harmless" woman in black.

He wanted to capture the woman in one fell swoop and coerce Wang Dongli, who was chasing after him.

But just as he flew up to the woman in black, a bad premonition suddenly welled up in his heart.

The next instant, before he could even see how the other person moved, they actually took out a long knife from the book box on their back.

At that moment, Ji Wujiu felt a sudden brightness before his eyes!
It wasn't sunlight, but a bright, swift blade of light, carrying the resolute power to sever all constraints.

The flash of the blade was so fast it was beyond the limits of vision, like a blinding reflection that occasionally flashed through the summer woods.

Ji Wujiu's momentum came to an abrupt halt, and he instantly collapsed to the ground.

He looked down in astonishment.

Two withered arms, severed at the shoulder, fell with a "thud" onto the ground covered with fallen leaves.

The cut was smooth as a mirror, and the blood hesitated for a moment before gushing out like a waterfall.

The excruciating pain overwhelmed his consciousness like a tsunami, causing him to lose his balance and collapse to the ground.

"what!"

Ji Wujiu's eyes were filled with fear and disbelief. He couldn't understand how this seemingly innocent and delicate girl, who had never done any housework, could wield such a sharp knife. He asked in a panic, "Who are you?"

The scorching mountain wind swept through the forest, dispersing the strong stench of blood.

Wang Dongli, who had been chasing after them, also stopped, holding his long sword and looking at Gu Mo and the others with great vigilance.

Gu Chudong flicked the Gouchen Demon Blade, and blood instantly evaporated from the blade. She said coldly, "I am Gu Chudong!"

"You are Gu Chudong!" Ji Wujiu exclaimed in horror, looking at Gu Mo and saying, "Then you... are Gu Mo!"

"it's me."

Gu Mo slowly looked at Wang Dongli and said, "Sect Leader Wang, this is the person you've been pursuing. I'll leave her to you!"

Wang Dongli cupped his hands and said, "I wondered who had such an extraordinary demeanor. It turns out that it is the arrival of Heroine Gu and Heroine Gu. I am Wang Dongli, and I have long admired you. It is such a coincidence that we meet here. I am extremely fortunate!"

Gu Mo shook his head slightly and said, "It's not a coincidence, but I came here specifically for you."

Wang Dongli asked in confusion, "May I ask what business Master Gu has with me?"

Gu Mo said, "I have a friend who is a commander of the Six Doors in Yunzhou named Tie Tou. He has gone missing. We have found a clue that he is in Qingyang County. So, I plan to go to Qingyang County to find him. Qingyang County is the territory of the Dongli Sect. I would like to ask Sect Leader Wang for help!"

“Of course it’s possible,” Wang Dongli readily agreed.

At that moment, Gu Chudong transmitted her voice, "Brother, is there a problem?"

Gu Mo replied, "I didn't find any problems. I'll find another opportunity to probe further."

Gu Mo directly stated that he was looking for Tie Tou because he wanted to see if Tie Tou's disappearance was related to Wang Dongli. While speaking, he used the Dao Heart Demon Seed Technique, but he was unable to sense anything unusual about Wang Dongli.

The reason for suspecting Wang Dongli is that Wang Dongli is able to use the power of his primordial spirit, which meets the conditions for committing the crime.

immediately,

Gu Mo then pointed to Ji Wujiu and asked, "Who is this person?"

Wang Dongli said, "The Heavenly Gods will protect the Dharma, Ji Wujiu."

Gu Mo asked in confusion, "What kind of organization is the Celestial God Society?"

Wang Dongli said, "It is a mysterious organization that has only been around for a little over a year. It is quite active in various parts of Yunzhou, stirring up conflicts in the martial arts world everywhere. However, it is very well hidden and generally does not show its face."

I only found out now that these people have all cultivated the Gluttonous Divine Skill. I suspect this so-called Heavenly God Society is composed of the remnants of the ghost messenger Gongsun Jue, whom you killed two years ago, Master Gu. Back then, during the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony at Longhu Mountain, Gongsun Jue sent his men who cultivated the Gluttonous Divine Skill to absorb people everywhere, causing quite a commotion!

Gu Mo walked over, touched Ji Wujiu, and immediately sensed Ji Wujiu's internal energy, saying, "It really is the Gluttonous Divine Skill."

Immediately, Gu Mo tapped Ji Wujiu's forehead again, directly influencing Ji Wujiu's consciousness with the Dao Heart Demon Seed Technique, and said, "I'll ask you questions, you answer. Confess honestly, and I'll give you a quick death. Where is your headquarters? How many people are there?"

Ji Wujiu said calmly, "I don't know. Our Heavenly God Society only communicates through single-line contact. One protector leads fifteen envoys, and one elder leads ten protectors. We don't have any contact with each other in private."

Messengers cannot interact with each other, nor do they know each other's identities; they only recognize the Dharma Protectors. Dharma Protectors, in turn, do not know each other and only obey the orders of the Elders. Communication between superiors and subordinates is solely through the main line of command; subordinates have no way of knowing the identity or whereabouts of their superiors.

Gu Mo chuckled lightly. This was the same way Qingye Hall had played when he encountered them in Cangzhou.

"What are you Celestials planning to do?" Gu Mo asked.

"To help His Majesty be resurrected." Ji Wujiu said, "After His Majesty was killed by you at Longhu Mountain, we scattered and fled. Later, the elders summoned us again, saying that His Majesty was about to be resurrected and was about to become a god. We just need to obey his orders."

"The Venerable One you're talking about is Gongsun Jue?" Gu Mo asked, puzzled.

Ji Wujiu said, "Yes."

Gu Mo frowned slightly and asked again, "Where can I be resurrected?"

"do not know."

Wang Dongli asked, "Then what brings you here today?"

"We'll try to win you over to fight the Canglan Sword Sect. If you don't agree, we'll kill you and frame the Canglan Sword Sect to stir up conflict in the martial world," Ji Wujiu said.

"What is your purpose? What is the purpose of your Heavenly Gods Society in stirring up conflicts in the martial arts world?" Wang Dongli asked.

Ji Wujiu said, "I don't know the answer to that question either. In any case, the ultimate goal is to revive the Venerable One."

Wang Dongli didn't ask any more questions.

"What else do you know?" Gu Mo asked again.

Ji Wujiu said, "I don't know much. I'm just following orders and I don't ask about anything else."

Gu Mo knew that under the influence of his Dao Heart Demon Seed Technique, Ji Wujiu had already told the truth and there was no possibility that he was lying.

So he stopped asking questions and instead looked at Wang Dongli, asking, "Sect Leader Wang, what do you think we should do with this person?"

“Keeping someone who practices the Gluttonous Divine Skill will only bring disaster to the martial arts world. Let’s kill them!” Wang Dongli said. “I will send my disciple to inform the Canglan Sword Sect to come here and dispose of the body.”

Immediately,

Gu Mo pointed a finger at Ji Wujiu's forehead, and Ji Wujiu immediately lost his life and collapsed to the ground.
