Chapter 214
Everyone started drawing lots in order. When it was Gu Shihan's turn, there was only one lot left. She took out the folded talisman paper, unfolded it, and saw a big number nine written on it.
This means that she will be the last one among the nine to try to obtain the artifact.
The first one on the list was Nangong Yi. He took a deep breath and then approached the artifact carefully. Although he tried his best and spent nearly a quarter of an hour, he was still unable to get close to the artifact. The distance of ten steps blocked him.
Nangong Yi looked at the divine weapon that was emitting soft light and shaped like a jade ruyi, with a bitter smile on his face. He shook his head gently and sighed: "Alas... It seems that this divine weapon is destined to be out of my reach!!"
Next, everyone began to try to approach the artifact one by one, but without exception, when everyone was ten steps away from the artifact, they would feel a suffocatingly strong resistance, making it impossible for them to take even a small step forward.
Shi Qinghan cast his gaze towards Gu Shihan who was standing beside him, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes, and said, "Sister, you are the only one here who has not tried yet. You know, your luck has always been very good, I hope you can succeed this time! We want the artifact!"
Hearing this, Duan Siqi on the side quickly agreed: "Yes! Shihan! You can definitely do it! There will be no problem! After all, this is a rare artifact. It would be a pity if we missed it!" After saying that, she did not forget to give Gu Shihan an encouraging smile.
Faced with everyone's expectant eyes and words, Gu Shihan could only smile slightly in response, because she was not sure either.
Logically speaking, Shi Qinghan is the son of destiny, so such good things should belong to him, but he...
Gu Shihan withdrew his thoughts, took a deep breath, and walked towards the artifact step by step with a solemn and determined expression.
Although she also clearly felt the huge resistance from the front during the journey, her forward steps never stopped for a moment.
A quarter of an hour later, she stood in front of the artifact, stretched out her hand to grasp it, and instantly felt a powerful force flowing into her body. Her cultivation level skyrocketed and directly rose to the late Mahayana stage.
"Success! Shihan succeeded, that's great! Congratulations to Shihan!" The excited cheers of the crowd came like a tide, suddenly pulling Gu Shihan's originally scattered thoughts back to reality.
Gu Shihan was holding the dazzling treasure in her hand, with surprise and confusion in her eyes. After a moment's hesitation, she slowly said, "This is a magic weapon of light!"
As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of exclamations from the surroundings. You know, the legendary magic weapon of light has disappeared from the world for many years, and now it has reappeared in front of everyone, how can it not be shocking?
"Light magic weapon? Aren't all the light magic weapons destroyed? One of the important reasons why evil and demons are rampant nowadays is that the light magic weapons that are said to be able to restrain them have either been destroyed or disappeared.
Because of this, those monks with the power of merit find it difficult to grow and develop, which leads to the breakdown of the balance of power between good and evil, resulting in the current chaotic situation. Could it be that our appearance this time really has an extraordinary significance? "Nangong Yi muttered to himself in astonishment.
Hearing this, Gu Shihan couldn't help but fall into deep thought. She secretly thought that as a son of destiny, Shi Qinghan's arrival might indeed be a mission to save the world.
But I am just an insignificant little character, or even a cannon fodder who may die at any time. Could it be that I can play an important role in this journey of saving the world?
Thinking of this, Gu Shihan felt her heart was in a state of confusion and complexity. All kinds of thoughts came to her mind one after another, making her a little overwhelmed for a moment.
Gu Shihan shook his head vigorously, trying to get rid of the strange feeling in his heart. Ever since he accidentally traveled to this mysterious world, a series of incredible things happened one after another.
First, by chance, he recognized the Moonlight Bracelet as his master, and from then on, he embarked on a cultivation path full of unknowns and challenges. On this path, he actually had inextricable connections with several big figures in the Heavenly Palace.
For example, there is the Fairy Qingchen, who is elegant and otherworldly, like a fairy; there is the mysterious Master Xiangtian, who is kind to him as a teacher; and there is the respected Senior Xiang Ai, and so on.
Their successive appearances are by no means accidental; there must be some hidden meaning and unknown reasons behind them.
At this moment, a warm voice interrupted Gu Shihan's contemplation: "Shihan, why are you in a daze? Are you really sure that this is the legendary magic weapon of light?"
Gu Shihan suddenly came back to his senses, and after calming himself down, he said, "Of course I am sure! From the moment I held it, detailed information about it flooded into my mind like a tide. Moreover, I could clearly feel the pure and incomparable power emanating from it."
Hearing Gu Shihan's confident words, the people around gathered around, staring curiously at the jade ruyi, which was known as the magic weapon of light, and exclaimed in amazement from time to time.
I saw that the jade ruyi was crystal clear all over, flashing a soft and gentle light, warm and moist.
Gu Jiahui reached out his hand and gently touched the jade ruyi, then said with emotion: "It is indeed different! When my fingers touched it, an indescribable sense of intimacy arose spontaneously, as if it should have belonged to us. Not only that, this feeling also makes people feel particularly comfortable and cozy, it is really wonderful!"
"Yes! I felt it too!" Wen Xin nodded with a smile on her face, "That must be the magical feeling brought by the so-called pure power."
Amid the admiration of the crowd, this magical weapon of light finally successfully recognized Gu Shihan as its master.
"We are so lucky. Where are our next stops?" Duan Siqi asked with a smile.
She was looking forward to her future journey of experience, because with the appearance of this bright magic weapon, the entire first world seemed to be different. Of course, they were in the middle of the game and knew nothing about it.
While they were still immersed in surprise, a repulsive force appeared and pushed them out, and they fell into a dark forest.
"What the hell is this place? Look at these trees and grass, they are all black! This is so weird!" Wen Xin opened her eyes wide and shouted in astonishment. Her voice seemed particularly abrupt and loud in this silent space.
