Chapter 45 Mission to Save People
Gu Shihan no longer hesitated and rushed towards the energy men. The two swords in his hands coordinated closely and each sword was accurate. In less than a quarter of an hour, more than a dozen energy men turned into shining crystals.
Xingbai quickly cleaned up the battlefield and fled away.
After several battles, Gu Shihan became more and more proficient in using the Seven-Star Silk Sound Sword, and her footwork combined with the Wind-Supporting Boots made her move faster and faster.
Before those energy people could even reach her, they would transform into crystals of various colors and fall into her and Xingbai's hands.
As long as she doesn't encounter a large number of energy people, she will be safe.
There is a lake further ahead. Xing Bai pointed at the road happily, "Hanhan, the legendary Biqing Lake is ahead. There are many tourmaline stones there. They are good materials for refining water magic weapons. They are basically top-quality in the fairy world. You can't buy them even if you want to. They are only produced in the Lost Valley. Let's go find some!"
Before the man and the fox got close, they heard the sound of fighting, the roar of beasts and the sound of swords.
"Hanhan, a large number of energy people are besieging three monks. Should we go and rescue them?"
"Ah! Go around..." Gu Shihan was just about to say go around, there are so many powerful people, if he went there he would probably just be delivering food.
"Ding Dong! Mission objective: save people. If one person survives, the life value will be increased by 10. If you give up the mission, the life value will be reduced by 100."
"No way?! There is a mandatory task? God, aren't you afraid that I will die?" Gu Shihan was speechless and ran towards the place where the voice came from.
What Gu Shihan saw were three cultivators standing back to back, surrounded by thousands of energy people. There were also several corpses of spirit beasts beside them, and a ground full of colorful crystals, shining with alluring light.
The three men did not look too embarrassed, and their clothes were not low-end. They should be the descendants of big sects or big families.
The sword in one of the men's hand flew up and down, and the energy man was shattered into pieces under the sword, and crystals fell one by one.
The other two were no less impressive, dancing with their double swords with great vigor. The only female cultivator held a golden sword and used talismans, and was also not at a disadvantage.
Soon, a large area was cleared around them. The female cultivator's fingers flew, and pieces of spiritual stones fell into the jade box. The three of them moved and rushed forward. Screams continued, and the three of them were soon submerged in the energy people again.
"Lu Cheng, it seems that we can't get out unless we kill that screaming thing!" said the female cultivator worriedly.
"Well, Wang Dan, you keep looking. We will take action once the target is set." Lu Cheng said while moving his hands.
"Lu Cheng, Wang Dan, there are people coming over there. Maybe they can help us to tie down some powerful people!" said the male cultivator with two swords when he saw Gu Shihan running over.
Gu Shihan heard their conversation and smiled. There was no need to look for him. The leader of the energy men was right at the outermost edge on the right.
It is not easy for them to deal with high-level energy people as the distance is too far, but they can do it!
Gu Shihan did it as soon as he thought of it. He moved over quickly. The speed made Lu Cheng and the other two's eyes almost pop out. They rushed towards the direction where Gu Shihan was, with the purpose of seeing Gu Shihan kill the energy man.
After this period of fighting, Gu Shihan can now use all seven swords at the same time and hit the target with one strike. Xingbai shuttles through them, and the light of the crystal stone enters the jade box as soon as it comes out.
The cooperation was perfect. "Hanhan, Amethyst, there's a piece of Amethyst!"
Gu Shihan smiled happily and sent out the Seven Swords again, seeing more and more energy people surrounding him.
He slapped the storage bag with his left hand, and a handful of talismans flew out. At once, purple, red, yellow, and orange crystals fell down.
Lu Cheng and his companions only saw a blue figure flash by, and then there were more than a dozen crystals in her hands.
The three of them were getting closer and closer to Gu Shihan, and there were more and more energy people. Gu Shihan used a few more big moves, turned around and moved outward, shouting as he ran: "Why don't you run?! Are you waiting to be made dumplings?!"
The three of them finally reacted and quickly followed Gu Shihan and rushed out of the encirclement of the energy men.
"What's going on? Have we entered the energy man's lair?" Wang Dan said breathlessly.
"Isn't it? This number must be tens of thousands!"
Gu Shihan and a few others avoided the large group of energy people and were about to leave. The female cultivator shouted, "Thank you for your help, fellow Taoist. Qingmu Zong Wangdan!"
"Lu Cheng from the Ancient Sword Sect!"
"Xu Kai from the Xu family!"
"Thank you, but what should I call you friend?!"
"You're welcome, Gu Shihan from Wuhua Sect! Goodbye!" After Gu Shihan said this, he disappeared after a few rises and falls.
"I seem to have heard of Gu Shihan, who is from Wuhua Sect. She doesn't look like an ordinary person!" Lu Cheng said thoughtfully.
"Well, it would be strange for the closed disciple of Master Danhua to be ordinary!" Wang Dan said thoughtfully.
"You two, should we team up or split up?" Xu Kai asked, looking in the direction where Gu Shihan left.
"Let's separate. If you have anything, please contact each other via musical notation!" Lu Cheng said as he glanced around.
The few of them took the pills and rested for a while. When they heard the screaming sound again, the three of them separated and left in three directions.
Yes, everyone came into the secret realm to look for opportunities, so it is best to act separately.
Gu Shihan turned to the Biqing Lake. The water was blue, and there were a few tourmaline stones scattered around the lake. It seemed that no one had come here yet.
Gu Shihan picked up the stone and took a look at it. It was indeed a good thing.
"Hanhan, there, there is a tourmaline stone!" Xingbai said, pointing to a stone.
"Got it!" Gu Shihan took out a long sword and swung it down. Sparks flew and the stone broke into pieces.
Xing Bai happily put away the tourmaline stone, followed Gu Shihan around the lake, and collected several kinds of water-based spiritual herbs before leaving.
"Xingbai, look, that's bamboo over there, what's it called?" Gu Shihan asked with a frown.
"Hanhan, don't you know? Silky Bamboo is a high-level refining material that can confuse people's minds. It is very good whether you use it yourself or sell it?!"
"Silk Sound Bamboo? Is my Seven Star Silk Sound Sword made from Silk Sound Bamboo?"
"Hmm! Hanhan, do you want Siyinzhu?"
"Yes, of course, but I don't know if I can transplant some of them into the space!"
"It should be possible, Hanhan, do you hear the sound of stringed instruments? Turn off your hearing. You are the only one who will be affected here. Energy people will not be affected."
Gu Shihan did not dare to be careless and quickly moved towards Siyinzhu. If he met anyone with energy, he would be able to hit them with one strike, not giving them the chance to call for help.
Gu Shihan came to the bamboo forest and took out the Siyin sword. "Ding ding dang dang", he slashed at the roots a few times. This thing was not easy to cut, fortunately the Siyin sword was a magic weapon of the spiritual treasure level.
It took Gu Shihan half a minute to cut down a thousand-year-old silk bamboo. The bamboo leaves fell down with a rustling sound, golden in color, and very beautiful.
Xingbai didn't care whether it was useful or not and collected it together with the bamboo leaves.
Gu Shihan cut two more ten thousand year old ones and collected three younger ones.
He dug up a piece of bamboo root and sent it into the space, asking the puppet to find a place to plant it. Only then did he leave the bamboo forest with satisfaction.
