Gou Zai Liang Jie as a Human Gu

Inside the Imperial Palace, in the Golden Hall, memorials were carelessly discarded on the Emperor's desk.

Inside the palace, a huge wine pool was excavated, filled with fine wine, its aroma rising, and delicacies were piled up like a forest around the pool.

Emperor Chengping reclined on a soft fox fur couch, his brocade robe half-open, indulging in wine and music.

Dozens of palace maids and concubines surrounded her, some lying down, some reclining, their bodies half-exposed, sprawled on animal skin cushions and jade steps.

Some people curled up beside the king to serve wine, some rested lazily with fruit platters as pillows, and others frolicked on the edge of the wine pool, living a life of debauchery.

The sounds of silk and bamboo instruments filled the air, and entertainers played obscene tunes that were not worthy of being considered refined music.

The once magnificent imperial court has degenerated into a playground for debauchery, with the emperor neglecting the fate of his empire.

Wang Zhi, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, entered the palace: "Your humble servant Wang Zhi pays his respects to Your Majesty. May Your Majesty live ten thousand years!"

"Come and have a drink, my dear minister." Emperor Chengping, his eyes still blurry with drunkenness, disregarded the proper etiquette between ruler and subject and invited them to drink and make merry.

Wang Zhi dared not overstep his bounds and solemnly reported, "Your Majesty, Lin Mo has completed his seven-day period of reflection and has now become a disciple of Jueyuan at Dafosi Temple. How to deal with this scourge is a matter for Your Majesty to decide."

"He didn't starve to death." The tiger, who had been living a life of debauchery, suddenly opened his drunken eyes, revealing a chilling killing intent in his gaze, and his awe-inspiring dragon might rippled outwards.

The playful palace maids unconsciously stopped, becoming as docile as lambs, and dared not make any more noise.

"Gurgle!"

Wang Zhi swallowed hard, and bracing himself, he once again respectfully requested the Emperor's judgment: "Your Majesty, if this scourge is not eliminated, I fear there will be great trouble."

"Oh?" Emperor Chengping's eyes flashed as he looked up at him, like a hunter eyeing its prey, and asked, "Then, my dear minister, what should I do? I am the Son of Heaven, the supreme ruler. Once I have spoken, I have promised to spare his life. How can I go back on my word?"

"Your Majesty, I recommend someone who may relieve your worries. This person is currently outside the palace." Wang Zhi immediately made the recommendation.

"pass!"

A moment later, a series of steady footsteps came from outside the main hall, and then a one-eyed warrior named Long Xinghu entered the hall.

Although he did not bring any weapons inside, he gave the impression of being a human weapon.

A dragon-slaying sword that has yet to be drawn!

Although it was not drawn, the sharpness of the blade was palpable. When the palace maids saw it, they felt as if their eyes were being pierced, and tears streamed down their faces. Their bodies trembled involuntarily, and their legs shook like leaves.

This is a fear from the depths of one's soul!

Wang Zhi introduced, "Your Majesty, this is Ji Wuli, the number one swordsman in the Free and Unfettered Heaven Realm, the Dragon Slayer Sword."

Emperor Chengping, sitting on the dragon throne, opened his drunken eyes and looked at Ji Wuli: "A江湖人 (jianghu person)? Wang Zhi, you did well."

"Your humble servant dares not claim credit," Wang Zhi hurriedly bowed.

Emperor Chengping ignored him and instead instructed Ji Wuli: "Ji Wuli, kill someone for me. After it's done, you'll be rewarded with high office, wealth, gold, and beautiful women. I will never mistreat a meritorious official."

Ji Wuli said with a face full of disdain, "I don't want any of what you're saying."

Emperor Chengping frowned: "What do you want?"

"The Royal Arsenal's [Heaven-Slaying Blade]!" Ji Wuli demanded loudly, "Read the sword manual first, then kill."

Emperor Chengping's face instantly darkened.

Wang Zhi broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly rebuked Ji Wuli, "How dare you! How dare you bargain before His Majesty!"

"It's alright."

Emperor Chengping spoke up: "I have long heard that the number one swordsman in the Free and Unfettered Heaven Realm possesses superb swordsmanship and was once invincible. The Heaven-Slaying Blade from the Royal Armory seems to be useless against you."

Ji Wuli truthfully replied, "I'm not learning the sword, but rather testing my swordsmanship to see whether your armory's 'Heaven-Slaying Blade' is more powerful, or my self-created 'Heaven and Earth One-Slash Slash'."

Emperor Chengping nodded slightly: "I see. With your skills, you could easily have broken into the armory and stolen the secret manual without anyone noticing, but you didn't. This shows your gentlemanly conduct. Guards, take the manual."

A young boy entered the palace carrying a tray.

Ji Wuli couldn't wait to take the secret manual from the tray and read it right there in the room.

He read it very quickly, finishing it in no time. After finishing, he looked somewhat confused, but gradually his mind cleared, and he had a sudden inspiration, finally breaking through the illusion completely.

"I was too attached to appearances, so that's how it is... Haha!"

After letting out three unrestrained laughs, Ji Wuli composed herself, looked at Emperor Chengping on the dragon throne, and asked boldly, "Whom do you want me to kill?"

Wang Zhi told him, "Lin Mo, a disciple of Jueyuan of Dafosi Temple."

"Who?"

Ji Wuli's voice suddenly rose eight octaves, her face full of doubt, as if she thought she had misheard.

"You don't want me to kill that old bald monk Jueyuan, but you want me to kill a disciple? Isn't that a terrible deal? How about I kill Jueyuan for you while I'm at it?"

Emperor Chengping hurriedly stopped him, saying, "No, Jueyuan is a follower of the World Honored One and the Bright King. We cannot act recklessly. We only need to kill Lin Mo."

Ji Wuli pouted helplessly and agreed, "In that case, I will kill Lin Mo for you."

Emperor Chengping was overjoyed and ordered, "Good! Men, bring wine! We wish the brave warrior a swift victory!"

Ji Wuli looked at the golden goblet of imperial wine offered by the eunuch and smiled disdainfully: "No need. I can drink this wine after I take Lin Mo's head."

Before she finished speaking, Ji Wuli had already leaped out of the palace, her figure as elusive as a phantom and as swift as the wind.

Upon seeing this, Wang Zhi immediately congratulated him, saying, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! With this man's help, you will surely be able to kill Lin Mo and relieve Your Majesty's worries."

Emperor Chengping was overjoyed and nodded in satisfaction: "My dear Wang, let us wait here for good news. Bring a seat and have some beauties serve you."

The king, who was given a seat, was immediately surrounded by beautiful palace maids and fell into a state of blissful intimacy.

……

Dafosi Temple.

The Hall of Awakening in the Backyard.

"Tap, tap, tap...!"

The wooden fish was struck rhythmically.

A monk rushed in to report, "Abbot, Brother Lin has not yet emerged from seclusion. What should we do?"

The sound of the wooden fish abruptly stopped. Jueyuan opened his eyes, his face full of disbelief, and prayed with relief: "Thank you for the guidance of the World Honored One and the Bright King. Lin Mo is indeed as you said in your dream, with extraordinary talent. It is the blessing of this humble monk to have such a fine disciple, the blessing of three lifetimes, haha."

"Mingchen, take the silver notes and go to the Eight Great Hutongs in the capital. No matter how much it costs, book all the top courtesans. Don't let it interfere with Lin Mo's cultivation."

Mingchen said with some concern, "Master, if Junior Brother Lin continues like this, I'm afraid it will harm his health."

"snort!"

Jueyuan glanced at him sideways and said sarcastically, "Just because you can't do it doesn't mean others can't. Don't say anything more, go and get this done quickly."

"Your disciple obeys."

Mingchen left Zhijue Hall, and Jueyuan immediately picked up his pen to write a letter.

"Everything is ready except for the east wind; we respectfully invite the Imperial Concubine to grace our humble temple with her presence."

After finishing the letter, Jueyuan folded it into a paper crane, made a hand seal, and a bit of spiritual energy emanated from his fingertips, landing on the paper crane.

The origami cranes on the desk flapped their wings, then soared out the window and headed straight for the imperial palace.

Seeing the origami crane fly away, Jueyuan's crow's feet deepened, but he didn't care at all. His eyes were fixed on the origami crane flying out of the window, and a strong desire arose in his eyes.

"The secret to immortality is real! The Imperial Concubine was right!"

……

Inside the meditation room.

Amidst the spring-like light filling the room, Lin Mo sat upright like an old monk in meditation, his body pulsating with energy.

He relearned all the martial arts techniques of the Great Zhou Dynasty, except for the Pure Yang Heavenly Gang Boy Skill.

After experiencing three rebirths at the pinnacle of martial arts, Lin Mo slowly opened his eyes, two beams of light shooting out from them in an instant.

At this moment, having completed four rebirths in addition to his previous cultivation of the "Indestructible Vajra," his bones and muscles are flawless, and his qi and blood are abundant and refined.

Having gone through this retraining, my understanding of the martial arts of the Great Zhou Dynasty has reached a new level.

The unclear techniques, stagnant Qi, and vague and confusing realms of the past have been thoroughly understood during these three rebirths and retraining sessions.

How to describe this feeling? Lin Mo had a similar experience after finishing an exam, going back to review it, and identifying and filling in the gaps in his knowledge.

Looking at the completed test paper again, I was surprised to find that it was so simple, and I suddenly understood.

bass!

Lin Mo raised his right hand, and the air in his palm suddenly dropped, icy cold.

In an instant, a frost blade materialized in his palm.

"disease!"

The flying blade shot out with Lin Mo's thought, flew out of the window, transformed into a shooting star, and disappeared into the vast sea of ​​clouds.

Five hundred miles away at sea.

On the once calm sea, birds could fly freely in the vast sky, and fish could swim freely in the boundless ocean.

Suddenly, the weather changed dramatically.

A hurricane suddenly rose at sea, dark clouds gathered, and lightning as thick as dragons struck down continuously. The entire sea surface boiled, and giant waves capable of capsizing islands were whipped up.

The sea and sky, so clearly distinct, seem to be inverted!

Suddenly.

A beam of light pierced the heavens and the earth.

With a single stroke, heaven and earth are cleaved, twilight and dawn are severed, and yin and yang are separated!

The storm was quickly dispelled, and thousands of golden rays shone through the clouds, scattering across the gradually calming sea.

【Sky-Slaying Snow-Shattering Blade】Triple Divine Power.

The beginner's divine skill, 【One Slash Shatters the Snow】.

Intermediate supernatural power: [One slash splits a mountain].

The most powerful divine ability: [One Slash Splits the Heavens].

Today, I have finally mastered all three supernatural powers!

Lin Mo was very satisfied.

Suddenly, a domineering divine will, like a ship casting a net, swept across the entire Great Buddha Temple without hesitation, and quickly locked onto the meditation room where Lin Mo was.

Lin Mo looked disdainfully out the window. A figure approached from afar, initially as small as an ant, but gradually growing larger. It was a person, leaping and bounding across the rooftops, flying and attacking.

"Interesting. Perfect, I'll use you as practice to see what level I've reached!"

He cultivated the Vajra Indestructible Technique, and underwent three Great Zhou Martial Arts Perfection Rebirths.

Lin Mo's strength has improved by leaps and bounds, and can no longer be measured by the martial arts standards set by the Dream Ruins Blessed Land!

Only in real combat can you know how strong it is!
