I don’t know how many years have passed in this mountain, I only know that the sun rises and the moon sets, and dusk alternates with night.
After devouring the spiritual roots of three immortals last month, he is now on a never-ending journey of cultivation with the powerful blessing of his own spiritual roots.
During this process, Shangyue's body gradually became transparent, as if blending into the surrounding environment.
His aura became stronger and stronger, and every breath carried an invisible pressure.
His spiritual roots are constantly absorbing the spiritual energy between heaven and earth and transforming it into his own cultivation.
As time went by, his spiritual roots continued to grow, becoming more powerful and brilliant.
Finally reached a bottleneck.
"What's this?"
Surrounded by a vast expanse of stars, Shangyue looked at a ball of white light before him and stretched out his hand.
The moment the finger touched the white light, a ball of light changed, and there were thousands of flying flowers and falling leaves in front of the eyes, and the sky was spinning. However, in a moment, they slowly overlapped and revealed a clear picture in front of the eyes.
"Gou Chen Shang Yue? Young Master of Tianyu Divine Sect, how dare you claim that?"
A sharp, piercing, and sarcastic voice suddenly sounded, as if someone was deliberately pinching their throat to speak. The voice was high and thin, making people feel uncomfortable.
In this open space, several tall teenagers were surrounding a petite girl.
The girl looked very pitiful. Her clothes were torn and could no longer cover her body, but she still hugged her head tightly, as if trying to protect herself from harm.
Her eyes flashed with fear and indomitable spirit. She did not give in in the face of everyone's ridicule and threats.
Although her voice was trembling, her tone was firm: "My name is Gou Chen Shangyue, a member of the Gou Chen clan. My mother is the leader of the Tianyu Divine Sect. I, I am qualified!"
The crowd erupted in laughter. A burly young man stepped forward, staring at her with wide eyes. "Qualifications? With your appearance, a worthless piece of shit without any spiritual roots, your deeds would have spread throughout the entire Shangyuan Continent long ago."
"My Tianyu Divine Sect is above the four great immortal sects, yet now a loser like you has appeared. You've caused us to be ridiculed by the disciples of other sects when we went down the mountain to train. How can you casually call yourself the Young Master?"
His words were full of contempt, as if he was looking at an insignificant ant.
However, Shang Yue was not shaken by his words. She gritted her teeth and tried to make her voice sound firm: "My mother is the leader of the Tianyu Divine Sect. I am qualified!"
Her persistence finally aroused the dissatisfaction of the onlookers. The leading young man's face turned fierce and he said, "Beat her to death! Beat her to death! Kill this useless person without spiritual roots."
Following his command, several young men immediately took action, brandishing their weapons and attacking Shangyue. Shangyue was frail, but she did not retreat. She knew that if she retreated, she would no longer be worthy of being called a member of the Tianyu Divine Sect.
With a determined glint in her eyes, she clutched her head tightly, leaning forward slightly like a cheetah ready to pounce. Though her body was frail, her spirit was resilient.
"Stop!" At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded. It was the voice of a young man, and his voice was full of majesty.
Everyone immediately stopped attacking. They turned around and saw a man in a white robe, his eyes full of anger.
"Brother Shangqing!" Shangyue immediately shouted excitedly when she saw him.
Gou Chen Shangqing walked quickly to Shangyue's side, his eyes sweeping over the young men who were besieging her like a knife, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.
His appearance instantly made the arrogant young men subdue their auras. They knew that they had angered the strong men of Tianyu Divine Sect.
"What are you doing?" Although Gou Chen Shangqing's voice was not loud, it was full of oppression and could not be ignored.
When the leading young man saw Shangqing, his face turned pale instantly. He knew that what he had done today could not be undone.
His lips trembled, and he wanted to say something, but no words came out.
Gou Chen Shang Qing ignored him and turned to look at Shang Yue, his eyes full of concern: "Shang Yue, are you okay?"
Shangyue looked at him, tears in her eyes. She nodded and said softly, "Brother Shangqing, I'm fine."
Although her voice was weak, everyone present heard her firmness and trust.
Shangqing looked at her and felt a pang of pain in his heart.
If one has to endure such humiliation just because he has no spiritual roots, then what true love is there in this world?
Gou Chen Shangqing was slightly stunned when he saw Shangyue, who was covered in dirt but trying hard to give the most beautiful smile.
He swore that he would protect her and not let anyone hurt her again.
He turned his head and stared at the group of young men who were besieging Shangyue with cold eyes, and there was a chilling murderous intent in the depths of his eyes.
He warned in a cold tone, "You ignorant fellows, if anyone dares to do such a despicable thing, don't blame me for informing Immortal Lord Donghao!"
However, the young man in the lead just curled his lips in disdain, appearing to be indifferent.
In his opinion, Immortal Master Donghao is busy with all kinds of affairs every day, so how could he have the time to take care of such trivial matters as theirs?
What's more, this Shangqing Immortal Lord, who is said to be gifted, does not seem to have shown any extraordinary qualities at this moment.
Then, a playful smile appeared on the young man's lips, and he said perfunctorily: "Thank you for the teachings of Shangqing Immortal Venerable. We promise that we will never make the same mistake again in the future. We will leave immediately."
After saying that, he led everyone to flee.
