Chapter 194: Just a Competition, No Victims
Midsummer has arrived. Under the scorching hot summer sun, Gu An is picking herbs in Xuan Valley.
As the number of demons in the world has decreased significantly, the sky is becoming bluer and bluer. Now the Three Dynasties, the Holy Land, and the Demon King are all vigorously exterminating demons, causing Gu An's speed of harvesting lives to slow down.
But everything is returning to calm, which is a good thing for him.
When the world is at peace, you can farm peacefully and develop quietly. This is the right way to go.
Lu Jiujia came to Gu An and asked softly, "Brother, will you attend the alchemy conference at the end of the year?"
After the death of the Demon Ancestor, Lu Baitian started to take action again. First, he asked Xuan Tianyi to write a book, and then he held the world's number one alchemy conference. Various generous rewards attracted the attention of cultivators all over the world, and disciples of Taixuanmen could also participate.
In Lu Jiujia's opinion, Gu An's alchemy skills were not bad. He had sent batch after batch of menial disciples to be promoted to outer disciples. In Xuan Valley alone, more than twenty disciples had successfully established their foundations, and new faces appeared in Yao Valley almost every year.
"I won't join in the fun. Just being on the gold list is enough for me, your senior brother, to live a lifetime." Gu An answered casually.
There will be many similar world-class conferences in the future. If there is a calligraphy conference, he can participate in it because he loves to practice calligraphy on weekdays.
Lu Jiujia began to sigh at the development of Taixuan Sect.
The Taixuan Sect today has undergone tremendous changes compared to when he first joined. The atmosphere within the sect is more positive and the sect is more powerful. In the past, it was rare to even see cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage, but now there are many cultivators at the Butiantai who have reached the Spiritualization stage, the Void Crossing stage, and the Heroic stage. He can even hear stories about the Xuanxin realm.
The stronger the Taixuan Sect is, the more opportunities the disciples will have. For example, in the World's No. 1 Alchemy Conference, even if you participate in organizing the conference, you can get generous rewards. This is very suitable for disciples who have a lot of time and lack resources for practice.
Gu An listened attentively while picking grass.
Listening more to the opinions of lower-level monks on Taixuan Sect can better illustrate whether Taixuan Sect is on the right track.
etc!
Why do I have this kind of thinking as a sect leader?
It’s all Lu Baitian’s fault!
However, Gu An has become accustomed to being Lu Baitian's behind-the-scenes military advisor. This feeling is actually quite refreshing. He only needs to talk, not do anything. It satisfies his desire to command without having to put in any effort.
Lu Baitian also thought it was a good idea. If things continued like this, perhaps one day Gu An would want to take charge of the sect himself.
Several months have passed since the death of the Demon Ancestor. The Taixuan Sect has sent inner and outer disciples to eliminate the demons, while also sending disciples who have inherited the master's teachings and true disciples to explore the demon lands.
The land of demons is so vast that it is an unknown treasure land for all the sects of the three dynasties. Even the great monks of the Xuanxin realm could not help but go there.
Lu Lingjun also left the Third Medicine Valley, but her departure did not affect the Third Medicine Valley.
After Lu Jiujia finished speaking, Gu An said meaningfully: "You must practice the skills left by Wu Xin. The rise of Taixuan Sect shows that the times have changed. You and I both have a chance."
Lu Jiujia nodded and began to fantasize in his mind.
Gu An handed the picked herbs to Lu Jiujia, then gave him a few instructions and left Xuan Valley.
Next is picking in Tianya Valley, Xuantian Cave, Shanshen Temple and Nianchu Cave. In the evening we have to go to Bajing Cave. It is very busy but also very fulfilling.
Although there are fewer and fewer possessed monsters, Gu An can still gain a lot of life by picking herbs.
He even planned to expand the Nianchu Cave, just in time for him to find two female demons for Tian Yaoer.
Nightfall.
Inside the Nianchu Cave, Gu An sat in front of the stone table, sipping tea while looking at Tian Yaoer and the two little cat demons.
The thing that is most abundant in the demon land is monsters, and Gu An is looking for monsters that are suffering.
These two little kittens are twins. Their parents were eaten by a possessed monster last month. They escaped with great difficulty and suffered many injuries in the past month. Tian Yaoer is helping them clean their wounds.
Looking at her happy and distressed expression, Gu An couldn't help but think of An Xin.
Do women like to keep pets?
Gu An swept his spiritual consciousness into the depths of the land of demons. Legends about the evil demon continued to emerge in the land of Three Dynasties. The evil demon had become a major concern for people all over the world. It was a more terrifying existence than the ancestor of demons, and even the holy land that had stood for tens of thousands of years could not shake it.
The evil spirit of Li Mo is constantly spreading, and even Gu An, who is at the ninth level of the Fairyland, needs some time to search.
After an incense stick of time, Gu An's spiritual sense locked onto the mountains deep in the continent. That place was nearly tens of millions miles away from Tianhuang Mountain, and the coverage of the demonic energy exceeded a million miles in radius.
Gu An's spiritual consciousness sank into the place where the demonic energy was most concentrated. Along the way, Gu An saw a group of mysterious monks. Their cultivation was not low, and the weakest was at the Mahayana realm. They were stationed in a Taoist temple in the mountains and forests, practicing on their own without communicating with each other.
It seems that the Seven Star Spirit Realm wants to protect the evil spirit from breaking the seal?
Soon he felt a powerful restriction that could not be broken without visiting the Fairyland. He felt that he could break through it, but he did not want to disturb the Seven Star Spirit Realm or the evil spirit, so he could only retract his consciousness.
Take your time, don't rush! If you can reach a lifespan of 100 million years before the Li Mo breaks the seal, that would be great. If not, then break through in advance.
Gu An called up his attribute panel and looked at the fact that his lifespan was about to hit nine million years, but he did not panic.
After a while, Gu An asked, "Have you decided on a name?"
The intelligence of the two little cat demons is not very high, they are still in the first level category.
Tian Yao'er thought for a moment and said, "Master, you should come and get it. To be honest, I don't even know your name."
When she said this, her tone was resentful and the look she gave Gu An was full of grievance.
Gu An ignored her gaze and said, "Just call them Tianqing and Tianbai."
Both cat monsters are white cats. The reason why they are called Tianqing and Tianbai is because Gu An thought of his Qinghong Sword and Ye Lan's Bailing Sword.
Tian Yaoer immediately flattered him, "That sounds good. You are worthy of being the master."
Gu An stood up, left a message and said, "Remember, don't let them step on the herbs."
Seeing him disappear out of thin air, Tian Yaoer curled her lips, then picked up the two cat demons and came to the stone table. She suddenly found two books on the table.
"Sword Master Legend?"
Tian Yaoer became interested, put the two cat demons on the table, and then picked up the book to read.
…
At the end of summer, the heat between heaven and earth continues.
In the Third Medicine Valley, Xuan Tianyi sat on a chair with a depressed look on his face. He couldn't help but ask, "Why doesn't my Sword Sovereign Mythology sell as much as your book?"
Gu An replied as he wrote, "Maybe there are too many books of the same type, so the effect is weak."
Let alone other sects, the Taixuan Sect alone has published dozens of books about Fudao Jianzun. Qingxia doesn't have the appeal of Pan An, so how can he become popular? Xuan Tianyi sighed and felt that he was still suitable for writing travel notes.
He picked up a piece of paper that Gu An had just written and could not help but read the words on it: "Before the chaos was divided, the world was in turmoil, and it was vast and boundless, and no one could see it. Ever since Pangu broke through the chaos and created the world, the clear and the turbid have been distinguished..."
The opening poem alone attracted him.
This is definitely a book of the Investiture of the Gods type!
He read carefully, and the more he looked, the more curious he became.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
When he finished reading the first page, he wanted to find the second page, but Gu An hadn't finished writing yet.
Gu An was not only recalling the plot, but also thinking about the handwriting and how to write it beautifully.
"Forget it, just take your time writing. I came here today to say goodbye to you." Xuan Tianyi put down the paper in his hand and said.
Gu An asked without even raising his eyes: "Where are you going?"
Xuan Tianyi replied: "Go to the land of demons and find the evil spirits. The Holy Land will lead us."
Gu An nodded and said, "Be careful, don't be careless just because of your cultivation."
"You stinky boy, you still dare to teach me a lesson. After all, I have traveled the ocean. Unlike you, you stay in Taixuanmen all day. Don't worry, I can't die. I am invincible under the immortal way."
Xuan Tianyi stood up and said in high spirits.
Gu An looked at him and asked, "What if you encounter an immortal being?"
"Then I will die heroically!"
After saying that, Xuan Tianyi turned around and left. When he reached the door, he turned back and urged, "Write faster. I want to see if your book can surpass The Investiture of the Gods."
He pushed the door open and walked out, but Gu An did not stand up to see him off.
Beyond Investiture of the Gods?
Gu An smiled and continued writing.
It was almost dusk when he left the Third Medicine Valley.
…
Late at night, in the forest.
Zhang Buku, wearing animal skins, strolled forward with a stone axe on his waist. He looked towards the fire on the mountain, where there was a temple with fire and an inexplicably familiar atmosphere.
It has been a month since he left the cave and headed north, wanting to go to the land of demons to seek opportunities. Along the way, he had hardly communicated with monks and monsters, so he was very nervous now and walked up the mountain cautiously.
Not long after, he walked into the Taoist temple. The temple was very large. He stood in the outermost courtyard, a little hesitant. The fire was separated from him by a wall.
"Since you are here, come and see me."
A voice came from the other side of the courtyard wall. Hearing it, Zhang Buku breathed a sigh of relief, then jumped over the wall.
He landed in front of the fire and looked at the man in black sitting opposite him. The man had a stern face and next to him was a heavy sword that easily attracted attention.
When he looked at Li Ya, Li Ya was also looking at him.
"My name is Zhang Buku. May I know your name?" Zhang Buku said with a fist salute.
He could feel that the man in front of him was very strong, but he was no longer the same as before. He was just a little nervous, not afraid.
Li Ya replied: "My name is Li Ya, why do you have half demonic energy?"
Zhang Buku replied: "My father is a human and my mother is a demon. Are you the same as me?"
Li Ya?
I seem to have heard this name somewhere.
Hearing his question, Li Ya glared at him and snorted coldly: "How is it possible? I just took the demon treasure and have the power of demon blood."
When Zhang Buku heard this, he felt a little disappointed.
Li Ya noticed the stone axe on his waist, stood up immediately, and said with a smile: "Boy, how about we have a sparring match?"
Ever since he had seen the Cang Xing Zhen Tian Wuliang Sword of Fu Dao Sword Master, he had a deeper understanding of the Taicang Jingshen Sword. After practicing hard for half a year, he was looking for someone to try it out.
Zhang Buku subconsciously reached for the stone axe at his waist and asked, "Is it really just a sparring match?"
Li Ya nodded and said, "It's just a sparring match. No one will be hurt. I have been practicing swordsmanship for half a year and I want to test the results."
Zhang Buku's eyes lit up, a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "To be honest, I have also been practicing hard for a while. It's just right, so come on."
