Volume 2: Achieving the Nine Heavens and Breaking the Cage Chapter 171: Not Wanting to Be Alone
Time flies, and seven days pass quickly.
After seven days of fermentation, the incident of someone breaking into the Sword Controlling Sect was not suppressed, but all kinds of rumors were flying around.
No one knew which Jindan-level person in Yu Jian City spread the news that the Yuanying ancestor of Yu Jian Sect not only took action, but also mobilized the 6,561 ancient swords surrounding Yu Jian City to form an ancient sword formation.
But in the end he was still defeated, and only after he apologized was the matter over.
This caused the rumor to intensify, and its popularity far exceeded the news of the destruction of the Qiqiao Sect. It spread throughout the entire small wasteland at an unimaginable speed, making the rumor more and more outrageous.
For example, a mysterious villain suddenly appeared in the Yu Jian Sect, and specifically wanted to snatch the sect's young leader. The Yu Jian Sect's Nascent Soul ancestor was defeated and killed, and Xu Qianxing was abducted!
In short, there are endless exaggerated rumors, and even the final great terror from the sky has different speculations and rumors. This makes the Yu Jian Sect sound like it has suffered a great disaster, but in Yu Jian City, the number of people is constantly increasing, and people from all sides are gathering. Some want to find out the truth, some want to gain benefits, and everyone has their own thoughts.
As for Gu Xiaoxing, he has now moved into the Yu Jian Sect.
The Sword Controlling Sect is composed of nine huge ancient swords, and is also divided into different areas. For example, the first ancient sword is where the outer disciples practice and live, the second ancient sword is where the inner disciples practice and live, and the third, fourth, and even ninth are all different. Many places require a certain identity and status to enter.
Although the Sword Controlling Sect is just made up of ancient swords, its area is extremely large, with mountains, rivers, jungles and waterfalls. It even feels like being in a fairyland because it is suspended in the sky.
And Gu Xiaoxing was arranged by Old Qin to be on the seventh ancient sword.
At this moment, in the seventh ancient sword, there is a courtyard. This courtyard seems to be placed on a high mountain. There are white clouds floating in the distance and gentle breezes nearby. This place is like a paradise on earth.
In the courtyard, there was a small blue and white unicorn and a big black dog. The two little animals were lying together at the moment, whining to each other, talking to each other, as if they were communicating something.
Not far from the two little animals, there was a young man sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, as if he was taking a nap.
Not far from the young man, there was a small pavilion. In the pavilion, there were two women. They occasionally whispered to each other, occasionally giggled sweetly, and occasionally looked at the young man who was taking a nap, with their eyes equally gentle.
Everything seems so peaceful and harmonious, poetic and picturesque, like a scene from heaven or a world beyond the sea. I wonder how many people in the world yearn for such a life.
But all this changed when the young man woke up.
Gu Xiaoxing shuddered and suddenly opened his eyes. His consciousness was now blind, and he basically could not practice to improve his cultivation. He could only reluctantly practice the art of controlling life. This art did not require him to pay attention to the changes in his body, but only to grasp the vague and unknown.
Seeing Gu Xiaoxing waking up, Qiao Yanran and Xu Qianxing came over immediately. Qiao Yanran was still as beautiful as usual, smiling like a flower. She hurried over to help the young man up and sat down in the pavilion.
"Sir, how is it?"
Xu Qianxing was also looking at Gu Xiaoxing. Although her condition was better than seven days ago, her face was still pale and bloodless.
After seven days, Gu Xiaoxing had already thoroughly understood the situation inside Xu Qianxing's body. However, the more he understood, the more he realized that it was extremely troublesome. If his physical body was injured, perhaps a Life-giving Green Lotus could solve the problem.
But the foundation of the Tao is not acceptable if it is shattered. Not only will that powerful vitality not bring much benefit to the foundation of the Tao, but it is likely to completely destroy the foundation of the Tao. By then, it will be too late to do anything.
Gu Xiaoxing also asked Guan Ye for various methods, but he couldn't do any of them. For example, in Yantian Territory, there is a kind of repairing divine flame. This divine flame is extremely magical. It can not only repair the body, but also repair the foundation of Taoism. A cluster is worth at least millions of high-quality spirit stones. Gu Xiaoxing can afford it by selling everything he has, but this divine flame will go out once it leaves Yantian Territory...
Gu Xiaoxing didn’t know how far the Yantian Realm was. He only knew that Coffin Master told him that with his current strength, he would never be able to reach there even if he flew for his entire lifetime.
Gu Xiaoxing was speechless. There were several other methods like this, but none of them were something he could do. Fortunately, although the method had not been found yet, under the guidance of Coffin Master, she finally stabilized Xu Qianxing's injuries. At least in the short term, her foundation would be intact and would not collapse.
Unable to find a solution, Gu Xiaoxing had no choice but to turn his attention to the art of fate. However, with his current attainments in the art, it was difficult for him to control the changes in his own fate, let alone the changes in the fate of others. So after several days, he had no idea what to do.
But Gu Xiaoxing is not a person who gives up easily. On the contrary, the more he insists on something, the more he will stick to it to the end. This can be seen from his performance as the male champion. Even if things have changed and he is the only one left in Fulai Village, Gu Xiaoxing will choose to complete it.
But in fact, he didn't want to complete it alone, and he never wanted to...
Therefore, even though he had used the art of fortune-telling to calculate the changes in his destiny in the past few days and gradually realized that the price he had to pay for using this heaven-defying technique was his lifespan, Gu Xiaoxing still did not stop and continued to deduce the changes in the world, trying to find a glimmer of hope among these myriad changes.
There was a blank look in Gu Xiaoxing's eyes. One of his hands was held by Qiao Yanran. He stretched out his other hand. When Xu Qianxing saw it, he hurried over to hold his hand.
Gu Xiaoxing felt their delicate and gentle touch and smiled, "I can feel it. I should have a clue soon."
Qiao Yanran looked at his tired face and felt a little distressed, but she knew the temper of this young master very well, so she said nothing.
Xu Qianxing's eyes were already red, because in her eyes, Gu Xiaoxing was more like a patient, who could not see anything, but still needed Qiao Yanran to take care of him, and yet she had to worry about her own injuries. For a moment, she could not help but said in a trembling voice: "How about... forget it, we..."
"What do you mean?!"
However, before Xu Qianxing could finish her words, Gu Xiaoxing interrupted her and said angrily: "It's just a minor injury, do you think I can do nothing about it!?"
Xu Qianxing was frightened by Gu Xiaoxing's voice. She felt distressed and wronged, and tears immediately flowed out. After all, she was just a little girl of sixteen or seventeen years old.
Qiao Yanran sighed and pulled Xu Qianxing aside to comfort her.
"Wangcai, come here!"
Gu Xiaoxing was so angry that he went straight to Wangcai, but after calling him, he found that there was no response.
"Get rich, come here too!"
Still no response...
This made Gu Xiaoxing even angrier, and then he used a secret method to open his eyes, but he could no longer find Wangcai and Facai.
