Volume 2: Achieving the Nine Heavens and Breaking the Cage Chapter 244: Is it surprising?
“Well done!”
Gu Xiaoxing shouted loudly, with excitement in his eyes undisguised. The person who came was none other than the Taoist Long Zhen, the protector of the Body Refining Sect who had gone to the Foundation Building Mountain before.
Facing the incoming palm strike, Gu Xiaoxing did not dodge or evade. Instead, a layer of Dan Hai in the lower Dantian in his body expanded, forming a protective light shield that enveloped his entire body.
The next moment, Taoist Long Zhen had already slammed his palm onto the light shield, but what surprised Long Zhen was that, with his cultivation level of the late Jindan stage, that small protective light shield could not be shaken at all!
"How is this possible?" Taoist Long Zhen widened his eyes in disbelief.
Gu Xiaoxing raised his eyebrows, looked at the other party, and said jokingly: "How can it be impossible, Long Zhen, you really haven't made any progress!"
Below, Qin Xin felt that something was not good when he saw this scene. He shouted, "Elder Long, retreat quickly," and at the same time, he made a hand gesture and the sect protection formation quickly rose up.
After Taoist Long Zhen attacked, he immediately realized that he was no match for , and hurriedly retreated back to the sect protection formation.
"Want to leave?"
Gu Xiaoxing snorted coldly. How could he let the other party go back? Thunder erupted from his body, and dozens of thunders instantly wrapped around Taoist Long Zhen like lightning snakes.
Taoist Long Zhen was horrified and struggled hard, but he found that he could not break free. The thunder not only entangled him, but the violent thunder force also invaded his whole body, causing him great pain. He screamed at Gu Xiaoxing, "Who are you?"
Gu Xiaoxing still had his hands behind his back. Facing Taoist Long Zhen, he did not even move an inch. They were both in the late Jindan stage, but this was the difference between them.
“Fellow Daoist Long Zhen is forgetful. When I think back to when we were at the Foundation Establishment Mountain, you were so arrogant that you attacked my Soul Devouring Sect without knowing right or wrong. It’s a pity that I was only a Qi Condensation Junior at that time and didn’t dare to say much…”
Hearing this, the scenes at the Foundation Building Mountain that year instantly emerged in Long Zhen Taoist's mind. He soon saw Gu Xiaoxing's figure among a group of Qi Condensation disciples of the Soul Devouring Sect. This immediately made his pupils shrink violently. He looked at Gu Xiaoxing in disbelief and said in astonishment: "You...how could it be you!"
"Are you surprised?" Gu Xiaoxing curled his lips and continued, "Actually, I am also surprised. When I was in Qi Condensation, you were already in the late Jindan stage. How come I am in the Jindan stage now, but you are still in the late Jindan stage?"
These words made Taoist Long Zhen's eyes red, but he couldn't refute them because that was the fact. He stared at the other party, his lips trembling, but he couldn't say a word.
"Today, I'm here to collect my debt, and I'll start with you. You punched me back then, and now I'll punch you back!" Gu Xiaoxing snorted coldly. He didn't want to waste any more time talking, so he just punched out.
In an instant, Taoist Long Zhen felt his scalp tingling, and he burst out with all his strength without hesitation. A layer of dark red light covered his body, which quickly doubled the size of his body. He exuded a violent sense of power, but this only allowed him to resist the invasion of thunder power, and could not allow him to instantly break free from the shackles of dozens of thunders.
And Gu Xiaoxing's punch has arrived!
What made Taoist Long Zhen despair was that facing Gu Xiaoxing's punch, even though he burst out with all his strength and his power increased dramatically, he still felt insignificant and unable to compete with it.
But Taoist Long Zhen did not want to give up. He instantly summoned three defensive magic weapons to cover his body and at the same time used all his strength to perform a secret technique. Since he could not dodge, he could only take the punch.
Taoist Long Zhen thought very clearly that as long as he could withstand this punch, the power of this punch would be enough to help him get rid of the entanglement of the thunders, take advantage of the situation to retreat back to the sect, and hide in the sect protection formation.
In this way, you can escape the disaster!
The next moment, the giant fist smashed down, and the first two medium-grade protective magic weapons shattered. Only the third top-grade magic weapon lasted for a moment, but it was only a moment before it shattered again. The giant fist continued to smash towards Long Zhen.
Taoist Long Zhen was terrified. He could feel the power alone. It was such a terrifying punch. When the giant fist landed on him, the feeling was even stronger. It was like a thousand-foot-high golden mountain falling down on him, making it difficult for him to resist. The blood in his body surged and he couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood. He flew backwards.
Even while flying backwards, Taoist Long Zhen realized that both of his arms were broken, but he showed a look of ecstasy, because, although this attack seriously injured him, it also blasted him back into the sect protection formation. With the sect protection formation in place, no matter how strong this man was, it would be impossible to hurt him at all.
However, no one noticed that among the dozens of lightning bolts that Gu Xiaoxing had taken back, there was one that still retained an unusual trace of blood.
At the same time, around Gu Xiaoxing's waist, there was a small tower with seven floors, which was the Seven-Storey Tower. And on the top floor of the Seven-Storey Tower, two graceful figures could be vaguely seen standing inside through the tower door.
These two people are Xu Qianxing and Xiao Zhuhuo.
At this moment, Xiao Zhuhuo was very excited. She saw clearly that the master's uncle had knocked a late Jindan stage cultivator away with one punch. She was so shocked that she almost jumped up. She immediately showed a look of admiration and couldn't help but said, "Master's uncle is too powerful!"
When Xu Qianxing saw Xiao Zhuhuo's appearance, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and a sense of pride inexplicably emerged in her heart. Xiaoxing was naturally very powerful. She knew it when she was with Lei Yuntian .
But a hint of worry still appeared in Xu Qianxing's eyes. She knew that Gu Xiaoxing was very strong, and perhaps even the several supreme elders in the Lianti Sect who had reached the great perfection of the Jindan stage were no match for Xiaoxing.
After all, when Gu Xiaoxing killed the Black Shen Zhenren in Yu Jian City, he took her with him. Although she couldn't see at the time, she was always buried in Gu Xiaoxing's arms. This means that it would not be too difficult for Gu Xiaoxing to kill the Jindan Da Wan.
However, this is the base of the Body Refining Sect after all. Just like the Sword Controlling Sect has the ancient sword formation, the Body Refining Sect must also have its own amazing methods. Any sect that can be passed down for thousands or tens of thousands of years will not be simple.
This is because the lifespan of a Nascent Soul is no more than five thousand years at most. Even if the Nascent Soul has reached great perfection, even if it has many means of prolonging its life, it will not exceed this number!
This is the deadline, and it is also the law of this world.
It is going to rain, a woman is going to get married, all things have their birth and their death. There is a limit to what human power can change, and the law undoubtedly far exceeds the limit of what human power can change.
The fact that a sect's inheritance can exceed the limit of a Nascent Soul stage speaks volumes in itself, not to mention that it is the Body Refining Sect, one of the three major sects.
Although the Body Refining Sect does not have any Nascent Soul cultivators, it does not mean that they are afraid of Nascent Souls. For example, the sect protection formation in front of them cannot be easily broken even by a Nascent Soul cultivator.
"Then how is Xiaoxing going to break through this protective formation?" Xu Qianxing wondered.
