Suddenly, Gu Qingxi felt the mysterious spiritual power fluctuation again.
If I guessed correctly, the reason why the city defense formation was repaired so quickly and easily was because of this spiritual power.
Could it be that this spiritual power is related to City Lord Luo and others, or to these people? Gu Qingxi immediately focused her mind and explored downwards.
But what surprised her was that this spiritual power was as ethereal and ethereal as the power of immortals. Although she could clearly feel the fluctuation this time, she also felt that it was related to the people below. But
when she focused her consciousness to explore, she found that this spiritual power was diffused between heaven and earth, omnipresent, and could not be captured at all.
After trying several times, the result was the same, and Gu Qingxi could only give up helplessly.
"Gu Daoyou, Moyun City can be saved from danger this time, all thanks to you.
You came from afar, and I haven't had time to treat you well. Why don't you go to the City Lord's Mansion to rest first, let me fulfill my hospitality, and give me a chance to thank you." City Lord Gu flew to Gu Qingxi on his sword and said expectantly.
"Then I'll bother you, Lord City Lord." Gu Qingxi nodded.
After a series of battles, even if she wasn't tired, Xiao Fangqing and the others were tired, and they needed to rest.
Amid the thunderous cheers of the citizens, a group of people flew to the City Lord's Mansion.
"Lord Gu, what's the miracle you mentioned earlier?" Looking at the almost fanatical admiration of the people below, Gu Qingxi suddenly thought of the scene she saw in front of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion yesterday and asked.
Although she had not known each other for a long time, she could see that the Lord City Lord was bold and resolute, otherwise he would never agree to her proposal so easily, risking the city's destruction and the death of people, and killing all the Sky-Splitting Thunder Beasts under the city. After all, she
hadn't set up the Demon Cultivation Killing Formation at that time, and Lord Gu didn't know that she was proficient in talismans in addition to sword skills and formations. If it were other city lords, they wouldn't be as brave as him.
He has such a broad mind and such courage, which is enough to get the support of the citizens. There should be no need to use the method of fooling the people and bewitching people to rule Moyun City.
"Gu Daoyou, do you really not know?" The Lord of the Ancient City asked tentatively.
"Know what?" Gu Qingxi asked inexplicably.
"Over the years, although the Divine Palace has rarely appeared, if there is a great chaos in the world and the people pray sincerely, they can also seek protection from the Divine Palace.
About six thousand years ago, Sifang City, tens of thousands of miles away, was besieged by monsters like Moyun City. At
the critical moment, more than 100,000 people knelt on the ground and begged for a long time. In the end, two strong men from the Divine Palace left their souls and used their great magical powers to repel the monsters and protect the safety of Sifang City.
More than four thousand years ago, there were evil cultivators in Chichuan City, and countless people were eroded by evil spirits, and their minds were in chaos and they killed each other. In the end, it was also the people who prayed sincerely, and a strong man from the Divine Palace left his soul and killed several evil cultivators on the spot, restoring peace to Chichuan City.
More than two thousand years ago..." The Lord of the Ancient City said like a treasure, with a fascinated face.
"You mean, every time a strong man from the Divine Palace appears, his soul is out of his body?" Gu Qingxi asked.
Listening to the ancient city lord talking about the various miracles in the past in the world of cultivation, she couldn't help but think of the disciples and descendants of the sects who were poisoned by the Nine Nether Soul Refining Powder and had to go to Luoshui City for help.
If those sects and families were not lucky enough to meet her, they would most likely have to pray to the Divine Palace in the end. If the Divine Palace sent people to help, it should also be regarded as a miracle
.
If I guessed correctly, the culprit behind the natural and man-made disasters mentioned by the ancient city lord, including the crisis in Moyun City, was actually the Divine Palace itself.
Its purpose was to deceive people as she had guessed before.
But why was it only the Yuanshen that appeared every time? Why didn't the people of the Divine Palace show up in person? Was it to play tricks and make a mystery?
Gu Qingxi felt that things were not that simple. This is the world of cultivation, everything can have spirits, and it is meaningless to play tricks.
"Yes, unless the thousand-year period has arrived and the Divine Palace appears on its own, the strong men of the Divine Palace are all Yuanshen out of their bodies at other times." The ancient city lord nodded and said.
Gu Qingxi guessed what Gu Qingxi was wondering about, and added, "I guess it's because the strength of the Divine Palace is too strong, which is not tolerated by the Heavenly Dao, so there are some restrictions, and the balance of the world cannot be easily broken."
Gu Qingxi's eyes lit up, as if a flash of lightning flashed through her mind . That's right
, restrictions! The reason why the Divine Palace only appears once every thousand years, and the reason why the Yuanshen is out of the body at other times, is probably because it is subject to some kind of restrictions.
But this restriction may not come from the Heavenly Dao, maybe it was done by her disciples.
But why can the prayers of the people break this restriction, at least it can make their Yuanshen leave the body, and what is the matter with that mysterious spiritual power?
She couldn't think of an answer to this question for the time being.
With all kinds of doubts, Gu Qingxi followed the ancient city lord to the city lord's mansion.
"Gu Daoyou, I heard from Elder Xiao before that you are going to the Eternal Desolate Abyss for training?" In the reception hall, the ancient city lord personally brewed the spiritual tea, handed a cup to Gu Qingxi, and asked.
Gu Qingxi took the spiritual tea and nodded.
"You have helped Moyun City so much, I don't know how to thank you. It just so happens that I have a magic weapon here, which may come in handy in the Eternal Wasteland. I hope Brother Gu will not despise it." The Lord of the Ancient City took out a magic weapon.
The magic weapon was simple in shape, only half a foot in size, and looked a bit like a compass, but the engravings on it were not the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, nor the Tai Chi Bagua, but the sun, moon, mountains, rivers, and vast galaxies.
Looking more closely, the sun, moon, mountains, rivers, and vast galaxies were all composed of extremely tiny runes.
"What is this?" Gu Qingxi asked curiously.
Although he didn't understand what this magic weapon was and what it was used for, judging from the faint aura it exuded, the grade was not low, reaching the heavenly grade.
"This is called the Heavenly Stars and Mountains and Rivers Map. It was found by the ninth generation patriarch of my Gu family in the Eternal Wasteland. It has the effect of seeking good fortune and avoiding disaster.
But I'm sure you can see that this magic weapon is made in the shape of a compass, but it is slightly incomplete, with the pointer missing in the middle.
I've used it a few times before, and it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't, but no matter what, it's still somewhat useful. It may save your life in a critical moment." At this point, the Lord of the Ancient City blushed a little.
He actually prepared a lot of spiritual crystals, spiritual herbs, and natural treasures as a thank-you gift for Gu Qingxi, but the grade was not too high.
Think about Gu Qingxi's young age, with such a powerful strength, and such a powerful spiritual pet, and at the same time, he is proficient in formations and talismans. He really can't show off those spiritual crystals, spiritual herbs, and natural treasures.
The only thing he can show off is this Heavenly Stars and Mountains and Rivers Map.
Unfortunately, the magic weapon was still well preserved overall, but it was missing the most important pointer, so it sometimes worked and sometimes didn't, which made him feel very sorry.
