"There's still half left. What else do I need to convince you?"

Gu Dan asked.

“Goals alone are not enough. Far from enough.”

Zhen Chi shook his head slightly, "No matter how ambitious and grand the goal is, it ultimately depends on one's own hard power, and it cannot be achieved by wishful thinking.

You want the Dao Yun Jin Dan method?"

"I think."

Gu Dan nodded affirmatively.

"Then prove that you are qualified to bear this power."

Zhen Chi said arrogantly, "The Saintess of Tianji, who is said to be able to read the secrets of heaven, and the famous Saintess of Hehuan, did not dare to go down this path. Even the arrogant Wang Qianjun, who you are more familiar with, did not dare to think about this. Except for me, no one in the world considers this path."

People are different. Wang Qianjun's arrogance is always evident, but Zhen Chi's arrogance is hidden in his bones.

The confidence that comes from the bottom of her heart and that she is better than the shining pearls among her peers is obvious.

Of course, Zhen Chi does have the ability and confidence to do so.

"so?"

"So, you have to prove that you are worthy of it."

Zhen Chi clasped his hands together, stared at Gu Dan and said, "You don't think you can convince me just by saying that you want to fight against Yundao Tianhe?"

"Then how can I prove that I am worthy of her? Beat up Ying Yaoyao, Luo Qingyin, and Wang Qianjun?"

Gu Dan asked back.

"Um?"

Zhen Chi was stunned. He never expected that Gu Dan would be so unconventional. How could you, a late foundation building expert, look more arrogant than him? He was confident that he could defeat these people in a one-on-one fight, but he wanted to take care of them all at once. Did he really think that they were just for show? "That's just to make things difficult for you. I'm not that mean."

Zhen Chi shook his head and said, "It's very simple. Now that we have the Demon Clan Killing Order, if you can kill a Dragon King with your late foundation building strength, you will have passed my test and be qualified to follow the same path as me."

Building the foundation and killing the Dragon King is equivalent to building the foundation and attacking the Golden Elixir.

Of course it is difficult, but it is not impossible.

But the path to the golden elixir of the Dao is something that no one has ever achieved.

Even if he is a formation fanatic, he is just moving forward on the road and has not yet broken through his own shackles.

Comparing the two, Dao Yun Jin Dan is more difficult.

"Okay, it's a deal!"

Gu Dan was overjoyed, this is what you said.

"You seem very confident?"

Zhen Chi was a little curious, "You said you were from Yuantian Realm, so you should be just a casual cultivator. Why are you so confident in yourself?"

“How do you know if you don’t try?

If the place is easy and near, many people will visit it; if the place is dangerous and far, few people will go there. However, the most magnificent, bizarre and extraordinary sights in the world are often in dangerous and far places, where few people go. Therefore, only those with determination can reach them. If one has determination but does not stop, then one cannot reach it if one does not have enough strength. If one has determination and strength but does not stop, then one will not reach it if one is in a dark and confused place with nothing to help him. However, if one has enough strength to reach it, then others will criticize him and he will regret it. If one has done his best but cannot reach it, then he will not regret it. Who can criticize him?

Gu Dan asked back.

Ambition, effort, and choice are equally important.

If you want to have no regrets, you should try your best no matter what.

"very good."

Zhen Chi was very satisfied with Gu Dan's attitude, which was the belief of a seeker of truth.

If the road is easy and close, many people will travel there; if the road is dangerous and far, few people will go there.

The world sees danger and distance, but he sees beauty.

This road is rarely traveled, so he walked alone.

Today someone also wants to come here to learn from the masters. To Zhan Chi, this is not an offense, but more like a feeling of mutual appreciation. Otherwise, he would not have to make a special trip here.

It is not shameful for a man to be insignificant for a while, but it is a real shame if he does not have the ambition to strive forward and become the best in the world.

At least in terms of belief, Gu Dan has been recognized by Zhen Chi.

What you need to do next is to prove your strength.

To prove that he is qualified, he goes to explore with Zhen Chi those dangerous and remote places that ordinary people avoid, hoping to see the wonders and strange things rarely seen in the world.

To some extent, they are now half-compatriots, except that Zhen Chi found the direction first.

"You are still in the late stage of foundation building, so there is no need to rush. This is my communication talisman. If you succeed, just remember to tell me."

Zhen Chi handed a talisman to Gu Dan, and then said: "The path of Dao Yun Jindan will only be more difficult than building a foundation to defeat the Dragon King. If it doesn't work, just think about how to make a flawless Jindan, and don't pursue a higher path."

If you want to become a roc that soars into the sky, faith alone is not enough. You also need a pair of strong wings that can withstand the pressure of a mountain.

He has already given you the opportunity, but whether you can succeed or not ultimately depends on yourself.

"Thank you very much. If you gain anything in the future, I will definitely reward you generously."

Gu Dan clasped his fists in greeting, took the communication talisman, and left without any delay.

Strictly speaking, Zhen Chi had every right to reject him, and he didn't even have to set a test for him. After all, he was asking for help, and for Zhen Chi, it actually did him no good.

As for the 3,100 contribution points? Zhen Chi didn't even care about it.

The two of them had no friendship at all. Since Zhen Chi was willing to give him a chance, Gu Dan should accept his kindness.

Gu Dan has also completed his recuperation these days, and he has no place to spend the remaining contribution points for the time being. Three thousand one hundred contribution points is indeed a lot, but to exchange them for a great opportunity at the Jindan level, it pales in comparison.

But there is no need to rush. Contribution points will not go away. The more you accumulate, the better you can exchange for greater opportunities.

After a brief rest, Gu Dan left Dingwei City again without contacting anyone else.

After passing by the Tianjiao List in the center of Dingwei City, Gu Dan, who was ranked second on the Tianjiao List, has been overtaken by a Jindan cultivator from one of the nine major immortal sects, and that person is even not far from the first place on the Tianjiao List.

Although he has not killed a big monster at the level of Dragon King, as long as he kills the small monsters diligently enough, his contribution will be accumulated sooner or later.

This is also a strategy. It does not mean that you have to fight to the death with the monsters of the same realm to make a contribution. Even if you suppress the monsters with your strength, no one will say anything. After all, this is a battle between humans and monsters. How can you talk about martial ethics?

The dead ones are considered good monsters.

Taking out the chessboard again and looking at the map of Qingzhou today, most of the originally chaotic areas are gradually becoming brighter. Gu Dan is not the only one who dares to take risks. With the support of many cultivators, the battle line is also gradually advancing.

Some of the most talented people among them took advantage of this opportunity to become famous, and even those who were previously unknown could work hard to kill monsters in exchange for contribution points and enhance their own strength.

Generally speaking, since the demon-killing order was issued, many people have responded and the atmosphere is very enthusiastic, with more topics of conversation emerging every day.

Gu Dan's former glory of being ranked second on the Tianjiao List was only a temporary sensation. Without a stronger performance, he would soon be suppressed again.

After leaving Dingwei City, Gu Dan went to Qingzhou alone. Although he was alone, he actually often met human cultivators on the way.

There were not only monks who went there, but also people who came back in groups, chatting and laughing.

It is conceivable that those returning monks could only smile like that after they had gained enough to satisfy themselves.

Occasionally, there are some monks who are covered in dust and have stiff faces, as if they have lost their parents. It doesn't take much thought to understand that they must have encountered an irresistible big monster, and suffered heavy losses, and even their companions were killed.

Opportunities and risks coexist, but the overall trend is still positive.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

When he set foot on the area occupied by Qingzhou again, Gu Dan thought about it and headed towards the direction he had explored before.

First of all, he had already investigated the demon forces over there and had a rough idea of ​​what was going on.

Secondly, even if you encounter an existence that is difficult to provoke, you will be more familiar with retreating when the situation becomes bad.

After all, he had to kill a Dragon King. Although with his current level of cultivation, it would be easy for his opponents to underestimate him, there was no guarantee that there wouldn't be any accidents. He didn't want to die before accomplishing his mission.

It takes forty-nine years to nurture the body of the Great Dao, which is not a long time indeed. But now, after learning about the meteorite Tianhe, he can no longer afford that time.

Gu Dan never slackened in the necessary caution and care.

They traveled quickly along the way and occasionally encountered some small monsters on the road, but Gu Dan did not take any action to avoid alerting them.

After going deeper into Qingzhou again, the evil spirit that made people feel uncomfortable came again, and the area was much larger than the area that Gu Dan explored last time.

For ordinary cultivators, facing such a strong demonic aura, even the circulation of their spiritual energy would seem to slow down a bit.

The dragon clan did not do nothing. The increasingly dense demonic aura that enveloped the area was the most obvious sign.

Being in a place shrouded in demonic energy for a long time will affect the cultivator's own state and even his emotions. Therefore, if he goes deep into the hinterland for a long time, even if he doesn't want to, he has to return to the city for supplies and recuperation.

Gu Dan's spirit was strong and his mind was clear, so he didn't have this worry. He went deep into Qingzhou without any delay. It took him a full half month to see the water again.

The dragon clan loves water.

Qingzhou originally had many lakes and ponds. Ever since the dragons chose to descend here, they have been making clouds and rain fall, occupying countless fertile fields in Qingzhou in one breath. After a persistent downpour, ordinary creatures were almost extinct, and the common people had no way to escape.

In other words, once you start to see large swamps of water, it means you have truly entered deep into the hinterland, and you may even encounter dragons at any time.

Gu Dan used the White Lotus Concealing Technique to conceal himself. Unless he was hit head-on, even if he was scanned by divine thoughts, he would be subconsciously ignored. So there was no need to worry too much.

At this time, Gu Dan's third eye was already open, and it was common for him to anticipate the enemy's moves. Any living creature, as long as it was still alive, could not escape his gaze.

The divine power of the Heavenly Eye has infinite uses, and it is extremely useful in detecting signs of demons.

There were no dragons in the swamp before him, but there were a few obvious aquatic monsters that were constantly destroying the bottom of the water. To be precise, they were "building" things, just like humans building cities.

It seems that even in the face of the killing order issued by humans, the dragon clan has never thought of retreating. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to continue to build in the remote water area. That is something they would only consider after they plan to stay there for a long time.

A glimpse of the whole picture can reveal a rough idea. Just from the behavior of these little demons, we can infer a rough result.

But Gu Dan doesn't have time to care about these things now. What matters most to him now is to find a dragon king, kill it, and then find Zhen Chi to obtain the method of Dao Yun Jin Dan.

As for the overall situation of the human and demon races, it will not be too late to consider it after he has reached a high position.

There was no Dragon King in the lake ahead, so Gu Dan let it go as usual without disturbing any monsters and continued to go deeper into it.

However, Gu Dan had just bypassed the swamp and had not yet moved forward when a trace of spiritual energy fluctuations in his storage bag reminded him.

After finding a secluded place, Gu Dan took out the thing and saw that it was the distress talisman shining brightly.

"This distance is considered to be officially within the range of the dragon clan. A cultivator has encountered an enemy that he cannot defeat and his life is in danger. Is he asking for help?"

Gu Dan thought for a moment, then took the talisman in his hand. As the spiritual energy was infused into it, the light on the talisman gradually faded and finally turned into an arrow pointing to the west.

The person who actively released the distress signal is to the west.

"Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. If you encounter the Dragon King, it will be a good thing. For me, it is reasonable to rescue him if I meet him."

Without any hesitation, after receiving the distress signal, Gu Dan moved as fast as lightning and approached the place where the distress message was sent at an extremely fast speed.

As he got closer, the distress talisman began to emit a hint of heat, reminding him that he was gradually approaching the crime scene.

But there was no need for Gu Dan to actually get close to him for him to sense something.

Because above the sky, one can clearly see two dragons spitting out soul-stirring and bone-biting winds, waging a fierce war.

But judging from the aura of the two dragons, he had found the Dragon King that Zhen Chi had requested, and even found two at once! With the divine power of the Sky Eye, it was not difficult to find the figure that was struggling and maneuvering under the attack of the two dragons.

"Wang Qianjun?"

Gu Dan raised his eyebrows. Wow, I met an acquaintance! When the demon clan killing order was just issued, Wang Qianjun killed a dragon very quickly and stayed at the top of the Tianjiao list for several months.

Now that he is being gradually approached by latecomers, this guy actually ventured into Qingzhou again, wanting to kill another dragon?

But unfortunately, Wang Qianjun was obviously unlucky this time. Not only did he provoke two dragons at once, but this place was also the heartland of the dragon clan. With the movement here, monsters would rush over from time to time.

If he could not quickly escape from the stranglehold of the two dragon kings, he would be surrounded alive in no time. Even a Jindan cultivator would have little room to maneuver.

"Why is he so careless?"

Gu Dan frowned slightly and looked at the two mighty dragons in the sky.

One of them had a prominent head and horns, with scales on its body shining brightly in the sun. It had four claws, and its aura was condensed, as deep as the sea, and its demonic aura was extremely strong. It was obviously a leader among the dragons.

Although the remaining dragon was not as powerful, it was also full of demonic aura and was at the same level as the Dragon King.

In a flash, Gu Dan already had a goal.

Without informing Wang Qianjun who was still fleeing in panic, he secretly ambushed him. (End of this chapter)
