My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 404 Encounter on the road
Wu Tianhao couldn't help but feel complicated.

More than ten years ago,

The other party was just a minor cultivator at the sixth level of the Qi Refining Realm.

They were good friends back then.

It was simply because they saw that the other party showed some potential and also had a certain background.

Thinking that if he's lucky, he might be able to reach the Out-of-Body Realm in a few decades.

That's why I'm trying to be nice to you.

After all, if he were to advance to the Out-of-Body stage decades later...

This also adds to the Wu family's network of connections at the Out-of-Body stage.

A connection with someone at the Nascent Soul stage.
For Wujiaji at that time

But that's already quite remarkable.

It should be noted that in the entire Wu family, only he, the family head, and the old patriarch have advanced to the Nascent Soul Realm.

But in any case,

Wu Tianhao never expected this.
The junior he used to have to look down upon,

In just over a decade, they have grown to this extent, leaving us far behind!
three years ago,
His cultivation level was still at the early stage of the fourth level of the Nascent Soul realm, not much different from his opponent's.

But even now,
Wu Tianhao's cultivation level was only at the mid-stage of the fourth level of the Nascent Soul realm.

This is despite having accomplished numerous tasks over the years, thus acquiring ample resources to mitigate the consequences of breaking through the Qi Gathering and Returning to Origin Secret Technique.

Compared to oneself,

What about the other party?
He went straight to the sixth level peak.

Only one step away from the seventh level!
The speed increase was so rapid.

It's almost enough to drive you to despair!

I'm afraid that after some time,
The junior who once looked down on others is about to become a great figure whom he can only look up to!

Do not,
Even now,
I've already reached a point where I have to look up to them!

Wu Tianhao hadn't forgotten yet.

three years ago,
Outside the desolate city, it didn't take long for the other side to capture the Shadow, who was at the sixth level of the Nascent Soul realm.

At that time, Shen Changchuan was only at the early stage of the fourth level of the Nascent Soul realm.

Now three years have passed

How strong is Shen Changchuan, whose cultivation level has already reached the peak of the sixth level?

Wu Tianhao found it hard to believe.

"Senior brother, you flatter me. My growth is only due to a bit of good luck."

"By sheer luck, she developed a secret technique to control Gu poison, which unexpectedly solved the enemy's problem with Gu poison techniques, and she received a large reward."

"If someone had such resources, they could have achieved what I have."

Three years to advance to three realms

Shen Changchuan was quite satisfied.

However, to the outside world,

We should still prioritize humility.

Wu Tianhao shook his head slightly upon hearing this.

"It is your ability to develop the secret technique of controlling Gu and solve the problems on the front line."

"Moreover, there are people in this world who are not lacking in cultivation resources, but those who can compare to you are still extremely rare."

Wu Tianhao sighed.

He is not an ignorant person.

Back when I was a disciple of the Jade Purity Immortal Sect, cultivating within the sect...
It's not that I haven't met the direct descendants of those powerful figures.

Those second and third-generation elites never lack cultivation resources.

Even the enormous reward Shen Changchuan received for making a great contribution and changing the course of the battle at Broken Soul Mountain was nothing to those descendants of the Profound Core Realm.

but,

Even so,

Few of the second and third generation powerhouses from those sects could compare to Shen Changchuan.
The cultivation speed is fast.
At the same time, the foundation can be made extremely solid.
Its strength far exceeds its own level.

"By the way, speaking of this, junior brother, you need to be careful lately."

When the topic of the Gu-controlling secret technique came up, Wu Tianhao suddenly remembered something, quickly put aside the thoughts in his mind, and reminded him.

"Oh? Why is that?"

"The secret technique for controlling Gu that you developed earlier has changed the battlefield on the front lines of Broken Soul Mountain." "The demonic path of the Southern Yue Kingdom has suffered heavy losses as a result."

"Many people in the demonic path probably hate you to the bone."

"Before Master left, he told me to remind you to be careful of assassinations and retaliations from the demonic forces during this time."

"He advised you to return to the Southern Region if you have nothing else to do, lest the demonic sects of the Southern Yue Kingdom find an opportunity to exploit you."

Wu Tianhao spoke up to persuade him.

In fact,
During this time,

Near the desolate city, quite a few spies from the demonic path have already been discovered.

Those people probably came for him.

"Why don't you go back to Tiannan Region first, Junior Brother? It just so happens that Senior Sister Wei has also come to the Wilderness City. Right now, there is only one senior brother who is in seclusion and cultivating all year round guarding the sect's mountain gate, so the protective force there is really weak."

"Although over the years, five of the disciples who entered the sect with you have successfully advanced to the Nascent Soul Realm, they are all at the first level of the Nascent Soul Realm. If a problem were to occur, it wouldn't be a big deal."

"With you here, things will be much more peaceful at the mountain gate."

"Let me go see my master before I discuss this matter further."

Shen Changchuan hesitated.

The southern region is stable, but there aren't as many opportunities there as here.

not to mention,
After successfully refining the Golden Wind and Jade Dew Gu and witnessing its immense benefits to himself,
Shen Changchuan also had other thoughts.

That is the Gu worm recorded on the second fragment of the Minghuan Gu Scripture—the Escape Gu!

This type of Gu worm has an extremely strong ability to escape.
When Shen Changchuan first obtained the fragment of the Minghuan Gu Scripture from Youying, he already coveted its abilities.

At that time, he hadn't gathered all the materials for the Golden Wind and Jade Dew Gu, and he didn't have the time or energy to refine the Gu worms in the second Minghuan Gu Scripture, so he had to put it out of his mind.

later,

After the Golden Wind and Jade Dew Gu was successfully refined
He practiced asceticism for three years.

With the aid of the Golden Wind and Jade Dew Gu, one can rapidly improve their cultivation level.
The matter was put on hold for the time being.
Until now.

now,

His cultivation had reached the peak of the sixth level, but he had encountered a bottleneck.

It needs a period of time to settle.

I'll take this time to gather materials and refine the Void Escape Gu.

"The Southern Region is good, but it is not a place to strive."

"Moreover, the materials for the Void Escape Gu are not something that can be easily found in the Southern Tiannan Region."

Shen Changchuan pondered silently in his heart.

He already had a general idea of ​​what to do next.

"By the way, where is Master?"

“I have recently encountered some problems in my cultivation and was just about to ask my master for advice.”

Shen Changchuan looked up at Wu Tianhao, skipping the previous topic, and asked a question.

"Is that so? Master is stationed at Broken Soul Mountain to guard against villains."

"If you want to ask your master for help, you'll have to go there yourself."

"Be careful on the road. Although the Broken Soul Mountain node has been breached, a large area from the Wilderness City to the Broken Soul Mountain Range has become the rear."

"However, the allied forces have limited manpower and have not cleaned up all areas. There are still some remnants of the demonic path. We must not let them launch a sneak attack."

They exchanged ideas for quite a while.

Shen Changchuan thanked Wu Tianhao and then took his leave.

They didn't stay in the desolate city for long either.

After leaving the temporary cave dwelling,
Then, taking into account Wu Tianhao's reminder to be careful,

So he slightly altered his appearance, blended into the crowd, and left the desolate city.

Once they were dozens of miles outside the city, they transformed into a streak of light and flew towards Broken Soul Mountain.

Three days later,
It was flying over a vast, dark mountain forest.

Suddenly,
The sounds of battle could be heard from miles away.

I didn't want to pay any attention to it and turned to leave.

But in a quick scan, Shen Changchuan recognized a fleeing figure.

"Well, is it him?"
