Chapter 109 Life Gu
Granny Gu? What a strange name. Xiao Ting muttered to himself, but he still smiled and said, "Yes, I have seen Granny Gu."
The great elder of the Holy Clan, Grandma Gu, smiled slightly, and the deep wrinkles on her face stretched out like chrysanthemums, and said: "Young man, what do you want to do when you come to our Holy Clan?"
Xiao Ting said straight to the point: "Replying to Granny Gu, Ting Xiao is here to participate in the clan competition test of the Holy Clan to see if he can get the legendary Gu Avoidance Bead!"
The smile on Grandma Gu's face remained unchanged, and there was a hint of strange magic in her old voice: "It is indeed so! It seems that the poison-avoiding beads of our clan are also a rare treasure for foreigners."
Xiao Ting nodded and did not answer.
In fact, he didn't know what the use of this poison-avoiding bead was, but it was just to complete the task of the Soul Locking Palace. Otherwise, he wouldn't even know that there was such a thing as a poison-avoiding bead.
Granny Gu continued: "You are already at the True Emperor Realm at such a young age. No wonder you dare to break into the Ten Thousand Poisons Forest of my Saint Clan on your own. But young man, the trials of my Saint Clan are not based solely on cultivation. It can pass."
Xiao Ting felt happy when he saw Granny Gu not rejecting her directly.
What he fears most is that the great elder in front of him directly rejects him. Now that Granny Gu has softened her tone, everything can be discussed easily.
Xiao Ting cupped his fists and saluted, "I hope Grandma Gu can help me clear up my doubts!"
Granny Gu smiled and said: "The five-year trial of our holy clan is for the young people in our clan. Only those who can pass the clan competition test can become a member of my holy clan's bodyguards. Those who perform well among them can directly To be promoted to the rank of inner court guard or even leader. Of course, the premise of all this is to be sincere to our holy clan."
Xiao Ting listened carefully to Granny Gu's introduction and nodded slightly.
Granny Gu continued: "But for foreigners, in the past thousands of years, it is not that no one has participated in the clan competition test of my holy clan. These people have no more than two reasons. The first one is that they have nothing to do with me. People from the Holy Clan have met each other and want to form a long-lasting relationship. As long as such foreigners pass the clan competition test, they can stay in our Holy Clan forever and live together with their loved ones. And the second type is just to get me. The poison-avoiding bead in the legend of the saints!"
Xiao Ting was shocked when he heard this. He came here just for this thing.
Seeing Xiao Ting's serious look, Granny Gu's eyes flashed with an unnoticeable brilliance, and she continued: "Young man, your ability to pass through the trial of Ten Thousand Poisons Forest alone and come to our Saint Clan is enough to prove your strength and ability. Courage. Plus, you showed some mercy to the little Ziwang that I raised..."
Xiao Zi? Xiao Ting was a little surprised. He didn't know what "Xiao Zi" Granny Gu was talking about.
Seeing Xiao Ting's confused look, Grandma Gu smiled slightly and waved her hand, and saw a small purple figure running into her arms, shouting "Zhi Zhi" at Xiao Ting.
Xiao Ting took a closer look, wasn't this the Purple Golden Rat King from before? It was indeed a strange beast raised by the Holy Clan!
Grandma Gu continued: "Based on both emotions and reasons, my holy clan should agree to open the trial tower and let you try it. However, I still have to ask, old lady. Why do you want to come to my holy clan and want to get the legend? The poison-avoiding beads in it?”
Xiao Ting was silent for a moment and said: "Grandma Gu, please forgive me for not telling the truth. In fact, half a month ago, I didn't even know that there was such a thing as a poison-avoiding bead in the world, but now I really need this bead. Come...come and save people!"
Using the poison-avoiding beads to open the prison door and release the soul of the senior saint of your saint clan should be regarded as saving people, right?
Xiao Ting thought in his mind.
"Save people?" Granny Gu frowned slightly and said slowly: "Young man, do you know what the Gu-avoiding Pearl means to our Saint Clan? You know, once someone really gets the Gu-avoiding Pearl, our Saint Will there be any changes to the clan?”
Seeing the seriousness of Granny Gu's words, Xiao Ting answered truthfully: "I really don't know about this! If the Gu-avoiding Pearl is really so important to the Saints, I can use it again and return it to the Saints. Don’t take it privately!”
Hearing this, Granny Gu's eyes flashed with a trace of astonishment, and then asked: "Are you telling the truth? If you get the Gu Avoidance Pearl, are you really willing to return it to my Saint Clan?"
Xiao Ting nodded.
Granny Gu took a deep look at Xiao Ting and continued: "Now, I somewhat believe that you want to get the Gu-avoiding Pearl to save people! You really don't know what the Gu-avoiding Pearl represents to our holy clan. What?"
Xiao Ting shook his head in confusion.
Grandma Gu shook her head and slowly stood up.
The old man held a dragon-headed crutch, took a deep look at Xiao Ting, and said: "Young man, I can promise you on behalf of the saint of my clan that I will open the trial tower for you alone and let you enter the tower for trial. As for Whether you can get the poison-avoiding beads depends on your luck!"
Xiao Ting was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly bowed and said, "Thank you, Great Elder, for your support!"
Grandma Gu continued: "Don't be in a hurry to thank me. I promise you, of course there are my conditions. That is, you must first give your life to me for safekeeping!"
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Ting's expression suddenly changed.
After a while, Xiao Ting asked softly: "Grandma Gu, what do you mean by this?"
Grandma Gu looked at Xiao Ting's confused and cautious eyes, and she couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that you really don't know the rules of my holy clan! You dare to come here so rashly, I don't know how brave you should be." Jia, you’re still a fool!”
When Xiao Ting heard this, he was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say. He really knew too little about the Saint Clan.
Granny Gu explained: "My holy clan has this rule, which is for all foreigners who want to enter the trial tower and obtain the poison-avoiding beads. This has been the case for thousands of years. This rule is: foreigners The tester must accept the great elder's life Gu into his body to ensure that he will not damage the test tower of our holy clan during the test!"
The natal Gu entered the body? Xiao Ting frowned when he heard this.
As far as Xiao Ting knows, the so-called natal Gu is owned by every Gu Master in the Saint Clan, and it is something related to his own life, or a "god". This natal Gu is not only the result of the Gu Master's cultivation Fundamentally, it is its biggest weapon for hurting people!
If once the Gu Master's natal poison enters the body, it is equivalent to handing over one's life to the Gu Master's hands. Whether one's life or death is good or bad, it is completely controlled by the Gu Master!
Xiao Ting did not expect that there would be such rules for a trial, and he was a little hesitant for a moment.
"Promise her!"
At this time, the sound of locking sounded in my mind.
Xiao Ting frowned slightly, but he still trusted Suo Suo, so he exhaled and said to Granny Gu: "Grandma Gu, please bring out your natal Gu!"
Grandma Gu said in surprise: "Are you sure? In such a short period of time, you have decided to hand over your life to a person with whom you have only met once?"
Xiao Ting nodded, his eyes full of seriousness.
Grandma Gu smiled and said: "Young man, you are decisive in your actions! Well, then accept my natal golden snake!"
