Volume 2: Achieving the Nine Heavens and Breaking the Cage Chapter 242: The Formation Under the Earth Spirit Abyss

Gu Xiaoxing was punishing Xu Qianxing for his distrust when he suddenly heard sobbing. He looked up and looked at the small candlelight in the distance in surprise, wondering what she was talking about.
When Xiao Zhuhuo saw her uncle's gaze coming towards her, she quickly stopped crying and ran over.
Gu Xiaoxing still looked at her and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Xu Qianxing's face was flushed, even her lips were bitten red by someone. She was not as shameless as Gu Xiaoxing, so she could not pretend nothing had happened.
Seeing Xiao Zhuhuo coming over, she was so embarrassed that she didn't dare to look up.
Xiao Zhuhuo immediately shook her head slightly. How could she say that she was the one who scolded herself and made her cry?
Gu Xiaoxing looked at Xiao Zhuhuo with increasingly strange eyes. He wondered if he should say something to persuade her, but he didn't know where to start.
In the end, he couldn't say anything, so he simply waved his hand, and a huge sailboat suddenly appeared, carrying the three of them and slowly flew out of the sect.
In the Soul-Devouring Sect, many people saw this scene and knew that this was Elder Gu's magical flying weapon. They all showed expressions of reverence, and many people even bowed to the sailboat from a distance to see the elder off.
However, no one in the entire Soul-Devouring Sect knew that their lone elder was about to do something big, something big enough to shock the entire small wasteland!
On the Shiling Peak, Du Xu and Gu Nianxue were chopping firewood. When they saw the sailboat flying overhead, they both put down their axes at the same time.
The respect in their eyes was much stronger than that of others. They both knelt down and kowtowed towards the sailboat.
Originally, Du Xu and Gu Nianxue were not very familiar with Elder Gu, but after experiencing what happened that day, they immediately made some inquiries.
I just learned that when the elder first entered the Soul-Devouring Sect, he was also a disciple of the Chai Court, and he had the same surname as Gu Nianxue, so he decided to take him as his disciple.
However, not only did they fail to seize the opportunity and missed the chance, they also misunderstood and misinterpreted Elder Gu's kindness and regarded him as a bad person, which made them feel extremely guilty.
But just as the two were kneeling devoutly, two elixir bottles floated down from above and landed in front of them, and at the same time, Gu Xiaoxing's voice rang out in their minds.
"Before I come back, if the two of you can break through to the ninth level of Qi Condensation, I will consider accepting you two as my disciples."
Du Xu and Gu Nianxue looked at each other and were overjoyed at the same time, especially Du Xu, because it seemed that Elder Gu wanted to take him in as well. He immediately bowed deeply towards the sailboat again.
On the sailboat, Gu Xiaoxing saw the appearance of the two and nodded secretly. The pill he gave them was not the kind of pill that could quickly improve one's cultivation, but a kind of Yuan-nourishing Pill.
Although it can improve cultivation, the effect is not much and varies from person to person.
The greatest effect of this pill is to strengthen the body and lay a good foundation. It is one of the very few pills that is completely harmless to cultivators. This pill is extremely precious because of its extremely low production and extremely high demand.
Just this small bottle would cost at least 100,000 high-quality spirit stones, and that’s the kind that you can’t buy even with money.
In a sense, this pill is even more precious than top-grade magic weapons. After all, although top-grade magic weapons may be more expensive, reaching tens or even millions of high-quality spirit stones, at least they can be bought if you have money.
If it wasn't for his own disciple, Gu Xiaoxing would really be reluctant to give it away. He couldn't help curling his lips and muttering to himself: "If this still can't reach the ninth level of Qi Condensation within half a month, then just treat these pills as feeding the dog and don't need to accept a disciple."
Little Candlelight looked at Gu Xiaoxing eagerly.
Gu Xiaoxing pretended not to see it.
The little candle continued to watch.
Gu Xiaoxing sighed and said helplessly: "You are about to build your foundation, you don't need this."
The little candlelight uttered a dry "Oh" and lowered its head.
Gu Xiaoxing sighed again and waved his hand. Another bottle of Peiyuan Dan appeared and flew into Xiao Zhuhuo's hands.
Xiao Zhuhuo was immediately excited. He unscrewed the pill bottle, took out a pill and threw it into his mouth. It tasted crisp.
Gu Xiaoxing was speechless. This little Candle Fire didn't inherit any cleverness from her master, but inherited all the prodigal nature. A pill costs tens of thousands of top-grade spirit stones. Do you think it's a candy bean?
"Ah, Master Aunt, you should eat one too, it's so sweet!"
"Yeah, I've had it before, and I remember it was quite sweet."
Gu Xiaoxing: “…”
When the sailboat sailed out of the sect, its speed suddenly increased, flying between heaven and earth, traveling hundreds of miles in the blink of an eye, and in a moment it had flown two thousand miles, sailing out of the jurisdiction of the Soul-Devouring Sect and continuing to move forward. Soon, a huge abyss crack appeared.
This is the Dilingyuan!
The entire Earth Spirit Abyss stretches across the earth, and the hundreds of miles long abyss crack is like an enormous eye growing on the earth.
Gu Xiaoxing swept his spiritual sense over the place and found no changes, but the fog that enveloped the entire Di Lingyuan was somewhat unique.
Even with his consciousness at the late Jindan stage, he could only barely penetrate through, and when he saw the bottom of the abyss, it was not clear.
However, there was basically no change in the Dilingyuan. There were still high mountains and waterfalls, and monsters lurking there. Gu Xiaoxing did not pay much attention to it and drove the sailboat away quickly.
However, what Gu Xiaoxing failed to notice was that beneath the ten thousand feet deep Earth Spirit Abyss, deep underground, much deeper than the bottom of the waterfall, there existed a...magic circle!
This looks like a spirit gathering formation, but it is obviously different from ordinary spirit gathering formations. It is extremely large, covering an area of ​​hundreds of miles.
What's even more bizarre is that the spiritual energy gathered by this magic circle is not the spiritual energy floating between heaven and earth, but the spiritual energy that is forcibly extracted from the ground, so that the area under the magic circle has become a wasteland!
This formation is not a spirit gathering formation, it is a spirit snatching formation, an extremely overbearing formation. If abused, it is enough to destroy the ecology of an area. Therefore, it is also called an evil formation or a forbidden formation.
But who could have imagined that at this moment, deep underground beneath the Earth Spirit Abyss, there existed such a magic array, and in the center of this magic array, there was a person sitting. Countless spiritual energy from the ground continuously gathered into the array and was finally absorbed by him.
Suddenly, all the spiritual energy came to a halt and no longer gathered towards the formation. The person sitting cross-legged in the center of the Soul-Grabbing Formation also suddenly... opened his eyes!
Gu Xiaoxing sailed the sailboat with the two girls and rushed towards the Body Refining Sect. The Body Refining Sect was not very close to the Soul Devouring Sect, but for Gu Xiaoxing now, it was not too far either.
With Gu Xiaoxing's current strength, he controlled the sailboat with all his strength without stopping at all. On the third day, a city appeared in his sight in the distance.
This city is Yunfeng City. Although Qin Yunfeng is dead, it seems that the Lianti Sect has not yet selected a new young leader, so this cultivation city has not yet been renamed.
And behind Yunfeng City is the base of the Body Refining Sect!
