"Let's go, I'll take you around Taixu."

The two of them walked on the sword and saw Bai Lian soaring into the sky, with vast smoke and waves. The main peak in the distance went straight into the sky, and nine slightly smaller peaks surrounded it. After a closer look, they were still turning slowly.

"That is the inner nine peaks. With the main peak Taihao as the center of the formation, the nine-curve reincarnation formation is set up, which is the control hub of the mountain protection formation."

Gu Xizhan nodded. She had heard of the Nine-Curve Reincarnation Formation. When she saw it today, it was indeed mysterious.

While speaking, a large area of ​​bluestone flat land appeared not far away, and some stone platforms were sometimes distributed. Many monks competed on the stage, and various spiritual powers were flying in the air, which was dazzling.

Seeing that she stared at the stone platforms, Gu Xiye smiled and said, "That is the field of all laws for everyone to compete. As long as you climb onto the stone platforms, there will be formation protection. Unless the people on the stage agree, no one can step into it, and there is no need to worry that the battle will be interrupted."

Gu Xizhan's eyes were bright, "Let's compete with each other!"

"No problem, it's just my wish."

Stopped by the Wanfa Field, Gu Xiye picked a place and used the identity jade to brush it on the stone tablet next to it. The text on the monument changed from green to red. In the originally flat place, a competition platform slowly rose and stopped after it was several feet above the ground. He nodded to Gu Xizhan, "It's OK."

As soon as the two of them stepped onto the stone platform, a transparent barrier appeared, covering the entire platform.

Standing opposite each other, Brother Gu Wu smiled heartily and said, "Xiaojiu, come first."

Gu Xizhan did not refuse, and his sword was unsheathed, "Fifth Brother, be careful." His wrist flipped, and a sword energy rushed straight to Gu Wu's eyebrows. Gu Wu leaned back, almost level with the ground. He pinched his right hand and condensed several green leaves to meet the sword energy. The sword energy stagnated and lost its correctness. The leaves also shattered into green light and disappeared.

Gu Xizhan's sword turned around and turned into a slash. Gu Wu did not show any weakness. He threw out a seed with his left hand and then used a round mirror to protect him.

"Clang!" The mirror controlled the circular mirror to block the attack, and the mirror trembled. Gu Wu felt that his spiritual power was stagnant and the magic trick was almost interrupted. He was secretly shocked. Xiaojiu was becoming more and more violent.

The sword was horizontal and just about to swing it down, suddenly felt a strange spiritual energy behind him. He walked sideways, and the sword light drew an arc and blocked it backwards.

"Dun!" At some point, a large number of vines appeared behind him, winding, and one of them was blocked just now. Unlike the dark and shallow green of ordinary vines, they were dark gray and shining with a faint golden light. After looking carefully, Gu Xizhan was a little surprised. The sword just now slashed on the vines, but the vines were not damaged at all, and there was no broken skin at all.

Gu Wu smiled proudly and said, "This is my new mutant Vine. It has no other use, it is just that it is harder."

Hearing this, Gu Xizhan's fighting spirit became even more intense, "Let me try it out, is it your vine harder or my sword sharper?"

The two of them went back and forth, and they were in a stalemate. Their competition had already attracted many Taixu disciples. As time went by, more and more disciples were watching, and everyone was talking about it.

"Hey, isn't that Uncle Gu? Who is the female cultivator who fought with him?"

"I don't know, I look very sensible. Could it be a master who has just left the seclusion?"

………

Not far away, a man and a woman stood side by side, and similar conversations were also being held.

"Senior brother, who is that female cultivator? Didn't the ones who were in seclusion have not come out of seclusion?"

The man shook his head, "She is probably not a disciple of Taixu, don't forget that Junior Brother Gu is a member of the Gu family in Dongzhou." He looked at Gu Xizhan and continued, "Look, she is obviously a sword cultivator rather than a fake sword cultivator, and is probably a junior brother Gu's family." The sword cultivator only practices one sword, while the fake sword cultivator is different. Although he also uses swords to fight against the enemy, he still uses talismans, array plates, puppets and other things when fighting.

The woman was so radiant, "Is that true? In other words, she might be Ling Xiao's disciple?"

"It should be that Gu's sword cultivator often enters Lingxiao."

The woman murmured to herself, "I really want to fight her..."

The man didn't hear it clearly and asked in confusion: "Junior sister, what did you say just now?"

"Uh, nothing, you heard it wrong..."

…………

Gu Xizhan raised the tip of his sword, aimed at Gu Wu's throat, and said indifferently, "Fifth Brother, I'm giving up."

Gu Wu put away the cracked round mirror, looked at the broken vines on the ground again, and felt helpless: "I lost to you again, how old are I to you?"

"You have suppressed your cultivation."

Upon hearing this, Gu Wu widened his eyes and asked speechlessly: "Is it honorable to have a golden elixir cultivation better than a foundation building?"

Gu Xizhan's eyebrows and eyes were drooping and he didn't say anything. Even if it was the Golden Pill, she might not necessarily lose.

After staring at her for a while, she had no intention of speaking. Gu Wu pinched the bridge of his nose. Why did he feel that he seemed to be despised by Xiaojiu? Just as he was about to speak, he saw that the heads around him were moving and frowned. He hated the feeling of being watched. He jumped off the stone platform first, turned around and called out, "Let's go back." Withdrawing the long sword, Gu Xizhan followed him, and everyone consciously made a way out and watched the two of them leave.

Back at the cave, Gu Wuyi sat at the table, picked up the teapot, poured two cups of tea, and handed one to Gu Xizhan. "Try it, this spiritual tea is not bad."

He picked up the tea cup and saw that the tea soup was clear, the tea leaves were stretched, and a thin layer of spiritual energy was covered with the water surface, like misty clouds. Without entering immediately, Gu Xizhan pondered for a moment and said, "Fifth Brother, Linglang is about to bloom, are you going?"

"Of course I have to go. I also want to see if I can find a suitable spiritual plant." When Gu Wu practices the exercises, he needs to plant a spiritual plant in his dantian. After that, whenever he breaks through the great realm, such as building foundations, forming pills, etc., he needs to plant new spiritual plants. The quality of the spiritual plant is directly related to his combat power, practice, etc., so he has to be careful.

"Wait, do you want to pass through Qianyuling?" Linglang's secret realm is located in the eastern part of Zhongzhou, connected to Dongzhou, and from Taixu Sect, they can reach it within a month with their cultivation. It is still more than a year before the secret realm is opened. Gu Xizhan mentioned this matter now, which must have a deep meaning.

"Yeah." Seeing her nodding, Gu Wu became excited. Qianyu Ridge is located between Zhongzhou and Dongzhou. It covers a vast area, is full of monsters and many spiritual plants. It is a good place for training. Of course, the deeper it goes into it, the greater the danger. Most foundation-building monks are on the outside, but based on his understanding of Gu Xizhan, he will definitely not stay on the outside honestly during this trip.

He jumped up, "I'll talk to the master, and we'll leave tomorrow." After that, he ran away excitedly.

Gu Xizhan shook his head, the tea in his hand was still warm, he raised his head and drank it all in one drink. The fragrance remained on his lips and teeth, and a warm current wandered around his whole body, and his cultivation was also a little diligent. It was indeed a good tea.

The next day, the two left Taixu Sect and headed straight for Qianyuling.

Outside Qianyu Ridge, thousands of trees compete for glory, green grass is green, and a peaceful scene. There are many casual cultivators here. These people have low cultivation levels and cannot go deep into Qianyu Ridge. It is obvious that they want to try their luck at the outermost layer and add some wealth.

Without stopping here, he went straight into it. As he probably had reached the center of the periphery, Gu Wu stopped, "Let's start here first." Gu Xizhan nodded and agreed to his decision. The two of them slowed down and were on guard. Time passed little by little, and there was silent all over, only their shallow breathing.

Gu Xizhan stopped suddenly and gestured to Gu Wu. He nodded, flicked his fingertips, and a green light quietly sank into the soil.

"Shasha, shasha." The tip of his ears moved, "Shasha—" A sword light cut through the calm. "Roar!" A tiger-shaped monster jumped out of the dense forest on the right, all of which was snow-white, but at this time, blood was flowing out from its left shoulder, dyeing the beautiful fur red. The monster roared repeatedly, obviously having been angry.

"Liuyunhu in the middle stage of foundation building is good at controlling the wind."

"I'll do it." Gu Wu nodded, "Be careful."

"Ao!" Liuyunhu jumped forward, his right claw flashed towards her. Gu Xizhan raised his wrist and slashed his sword energy towards its neck. The big tiger was startled and adjusted his posture in the air, but half of his ear was still cut off.

"Roar!" Liuyunhu's eyes were slightly red, and he opened his mouth and spit out a hurricane. The tiger's tail swept towards her head with a green wind blade. He pointed to the ground and dodged past the hurricane. His sword raised his body. Although it shook the tiger's tail, the wind blade still left a few blood marks on her face. The sword's edge turned around, "Puff!" A piece of tiger's tail fell, and Liuyunhu howled in pain. Gu Xizhan's subordinates did not stop, and the long sword penetrated deep into its left eye. When the sword edge turned, Liuyunhu stopped howling and fell to the ground.

Gu Wu walked over and handed her a jade bottle, "Treat the wound on her face."
