Chapter 226 It’s Destiny
Zhu Yan looked at Gu Yue's back in the sky. The sword light was as bright as a precious gem. He said greedily, "Her sword is not an ordinary one. I just can't remember which divine weapon it is."
Cheng Lin had no knowledge of weapons, so he did not express his opinion.
Gu Yue flew up the mountain he had seen before. Looking down from the top of the mountain, he saw that the surrounding area was all long mountain ranges. As far as the eye could see, he could not see any other place.
She took out the map she had bought outside, but couldn't find the location on it. She looked at the sun and decided to walk to the end of the east to see what was there.
Having made up her mind, she swung her sword, like a streak of light across the sky.
As she flew, she wondered if this was also a trap formation. She saw that Cheng Lin's formation skills seemed quite high, and she also saw that they didn't seem to be trapped here, they seemed relaxed and comfortable.
Is there any connection between these?
Gu Yue flew with her sword, but found that it seemed as if she could never reach the end of her flight. The sun was about to set, and she had been flying for a whole day.
She had no choice but to stop, find a secluded place, and enter the space. She didn't want to be outside at night for fear of encountering evil spirits again.
After entering the space, she looked at Bai Rui who was practicing. When it saw Gu Yue coming to see it, it jumped happily into her arms, found a comfortable position, and curled up its body.
Gu Yue tapped its nose and said, "Although I hope you can advance quickly and help me erase the spell on the demon-subduing pestle, you must also combine work and rest."
Bai Rui rubbed her hand with his cheek and said, "I know. I'll pay attention."
Gu Yue carried it to the spiritual fruit tree and picked two spiritual fruits. She went into the study and put Bai Rui on the table. Both the man and the beast ate the spiritual fruits.
After eating the spiritual fruit, Gu Yue thought for a while and felt that she was too nervous. She should enjoy the feeling of training, fight monsters when she should, and dig spiritual herbs when she should. She told Bai Rui about her doubts.
"Do you think I might be trapped in a formation? If that's true, then this formation is too big!"
Bai Rui tilted his head and thought for a moment: "I can't really tell, but I can't rule out this possibility."
Gu Yue still spent the night in the space. During the day, she left the space and headed east. She fought against monsters she saw and dug up spiritual herbs she saw.
At noon, Gu Yue hunted a magical chicken and roasted it in the forest.
After roasting, she called Bai Rui, and after thinking about it, she handed half of it to it in the space. She didn't want to expose it to others. Its strength was limited now, and her own strength was not high either.
Bai Rui happily held the roast chicken in his mouth and chewed it in the space. As he ate, he said to Gu Yue's sea of consciousness: "It smells so good! It's delicious! It's really delicious!"
She smiled, sat in the forest, and ate some chicken. It felt good to enjoy life like this! But she still had to find a way out.
After eating, he headed east again.
In the afternoon, Gu Yue was still walking in the forest, and no one knew how many spiritual herbs he had dug.
She discovered that the monsters in this forest were all low-level monsters, and there were very few of them. The ape monster she saw two days ago was of the highest grade.
She had never seen any high-level spiritual herbs before, and she had not been able to collect enough spiritual herbs that could be used to refine spiritual herbs of level three or above from the spiritual herbs she had dug up in the past two nights.
These situations made her feel that this place was man-made. Man-made things have costs, so naturally there is no way such high-end things can be found there.
Who, except those powerful enough to move mountains and seas, could have created such a small world? And what was its purpose?
This boundless forest must be some kind of deception. With an idea in mind, she subconsciously sorted out the information she had obtained.
She thought the answer would lie with the two monks Zhu Yan and Cheng Lin.
She walked further east and marked some particularly tall trees.
Seeing that it was getting dark again, she didn't know if it was because she was busy digging spiritual herbs and fighting monsters, but she felt that it was getting dark especially quickly today.
She also shot a chick and a rabbit. She cleaned them up, chanted some magic words, rinsed the chick and rabbit, built a fire, and roasted them while looking at the sky.
After a while, a fragrance wafted out, and the aroma of burnt meat made people salivate. Gu Yue stuck the roasted chicken in the ground beside him and started roasting the rabbit.
She skillfully applied oil and sprinkled seasonings on it. She even took out the spiritual honey she had taken out earlier and applied a thin layer on it. The rabbit meat was roasted to a golden color, and the spiritual honey also exuded a rich spiritual energy, which really made people want to pounce on it and grab it.
Gu Yue paid attention to the movements around her. She turned the rabbit over with one hand and tore off a chicken leg with the other hand and started to chew on it. Seeing her intoxicated look while eating, you could tell how delicious the chicken leg was.
Seeing that it was getting dark, Gu Yue put away the roasted rabbit and chicken, put out the fire, found a towering tree and climbed up. She decided to spend the night in the forest.
Today she felt as if someone was watching her, and she didn't dare to enter the space again.
She slowly and methodically took out the roasted rabbit, tore off half of it and started to eat. After eating, she sat in meditation on the tree, while practicing, she released her spiritual sense and paid attention to the surroundings.
Not far away, a bird flew away and whispers were heard.
"Oh, this aroma is absolutely amazing. I wonder what it tastes like?"
"Junior sister, people who practice Taoism should not indulge in sexual desires. Let's think about serious matters!" Cheng Lin sucked the saliva that was about to flow out and said.
Zhu Yan heard the voice and glanced at him: "Brother, you want to eat too! After the business is done, we will arrest her and grill meat for us brothers and sisters every day."
"No." Although Cheng Lin denied it verbally, he was thinking about this possibility in his heart. He could smell the rich spiritual energy contained in the roasted chicken and roasted rabbit just now, which would be good for practicing Taoism!
"Brother, isn't it said that this small world will swallow up cultivators with great luck? I've observed her for a few days, and I don't think she has any luck. At most, her sword is a bit better."
"Junior Sister, let's observe for a few more days. We need to be patient. At least one cultivator has come in. If we wait for the next one, who knows how long we'll have to wait."
"Otherwise, let's run into her again tomorrow and observe her up close."
"Well, it's time to lure her into that formation. Test her luck."
Gu Yue quietly withdrew his spiritual consciousness and began to practice seriously.
Since I'm here, I might as well absorb more spiritual energy so that it won't be a wasted trip.
The next day, when the first ray of sunlight in the early morning shone into the forest, Gu Yue opened her eyes, jumped down, tidied herself up, and prepared to repeat yesterday's experience.
She continued walking eastward, squatting down when she saw spiritual herbs and digging them up with a small medicine hoe. She also fought any monsters she saw. When it was almost noon, Gu Yue decided to stop and rest.
At this time, Zhu Yan's voice rang out: "My fellow Daoist, we meet again. We are truly destined to meet!"
Gu Yue raised her head, put away the spiritual herbs she had just dug out, stood up, and said with a half-smile on her face: "Fellow Daoist Zhu, it is indeed fate."
