Chapter 136: Heavenly Temple Gu Yunying stared blankly at Beiquan Mountain. A few steps away, there was thick fog and nothing could be seen. After talking today, she could feel that Gu Yuanqing was still as friendly to her as before, but somehow she felt so far away from him. At this moment, the three of them felt that there was suddenly something extra in their hands, which was a jade bottle. Gu Yuanqing's voice rang in my ears: "There is nothing special in the mountains, so I'll give you this little thing." Prince Qing immediately guessed what it was and bowed to express his gratitude. Li Changyan also quickly bowed, and Gu Yunying also saluted. What she didn't know was that this spiritual spring water was specially captured by Gu Yuanqing from the core of Beiquan Mountain, and it was much better than ordinary spring water. Several people stood at the entrance of the mountain for a while before leaving. Before they had walked far, Li Shian and Ji Dai came towards them. "Third Uncle." Prince Qing bowed and said with a smile.
Li Changyan bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings, great uncle." Gu Yunying also followed suit and saluted. Li Shian smiled and said, "How is it?" Prince Qing said: "When we get back, we will prepare to set a date for the wedding." Li Shian expressed his congratulations and told Li Changyan to treat Yunying well in the future. After hesitating for a moment, he asked, "Did you see anyone in the mountains?" Prince Qing was stunned: "No." Li Shian was a little disappointed, but also relieved. …… Gu Yuanqing no longer cared about what was happening down the mountain. He took a few steps to the top of the mountain behind. As soon as he thought about it, the clouds in the sky dispersed, revealing a red moon. He looked up into the distance. This direction was the ancestral mountain of the iron-eating beast. Just now, a ray of sword light passed through the top of the mountain, and then stopped for a while at a distance. A divine thought swept towards Beiquan Mountain, but was blocked outside the mountain by Beiquan Mountain. However, Gu Yuanqing judged from this that this sword light belonged to the human race. The strength of his spiritual power was much stronger than Lan Tinglie, but inferior to the ancestor of the Iron-Eating Clan. Based on this, Gu Yuanqing judged that this person's cultivation was at least at the Xutian realm, or even a celestial being. It was precisely because of this that Gu Yuanqing was in a hurry to send Gu Yunying and others down the mountain. Something is bound to happen when a human expert enters the Iron-Eating Clan's territory. Is this war going to spread to this place eventually? Gu Yuanqing stared into the distance for a long time, and after that he was about to return to the courtyard. Suddenly, a voice was heard faintly: "Get lost. We, the Iron-Eating Clan, do not want to be involved in the dispute between humans and demons. If you dare to intrude without permission again, you will be an enemy of our clan." Gu Yuanqing practiced his skills to strengthen his eyes. This was a pupil technique recorded in the Nine Nether Purgatory Sutra. Although he could not fully practice this technique due to the difference in skills, once it was performed, the improvement in eyesight was amazing. A giant bear can be vaguely seen standing tall and majestic, causing ripples in the space.
A figure was wrapped in the sword light and retreated rapidly. After retreating a thousand feet, he seemed to say something, but the giant bear standing there was furious. It raised its palm and swung it down, knocking the figure back like a meteor. The sword light also dissipated a lot, as if it was injured. Then he flew away with the sword light, still heading towards Beiquan Mountain. As soon as Gu Yuanqing had a thought, clouds and mist once again covered Beiquan Mountain. The sword light returned to the outside of Beiquan Mountain and stopped again. Its divine consciousness swept towards Beiquan Mountain fearlessly, and then it shouted: "Since you are also a human, why don't you come out and see me?" Gu Yuanqing was surprised that he thought Beiquan Mountain could hide his aura and even a celestial being would not be able to detect his identity. The man's tone became a little colder, and he shouted, "Sir, don't play dumb. I noticed that there were prying eyes coming from this direction before I came to Zhushan. The formation in this mountain is secretive and mysterious. It is definitely not something that other tribes can set up." Gu Yuanqing stood on the top of the mountain. Only then did he realize that this was what had aroused his suspicion. However, he was still a little hesitant as this man had a strong murderous aura. And as far as he knew, when the Heavenly King Bell was rung nine times, all the masters of the mortal race would have the responsibility to join the battle. If they met, it would only cause trouble. Sure enough, he heard this person say in a cold voice: "I am Ji Xian of the Heavenly Man Holy Temple, and I am also the wartime supervisor of the human race. When the Heavenly King Bell rings nine times, the survival of the human race is in danger. Everyone has the responsibility to protect the race and obey the orders of the Heavenly Man Holy Temple. Otherwise, you can be charged with treason and beheaded as a warning to the world." Gu Yuanqing frowned when he heard this. He had never thought that the first trouble of the human race would not come from other races, but from the human race itself. He did not think that the human race's action was inappropriate. If they really encountered danger, everyone would harbor selfish thoughts and be afraid of fighting and unable to work together, and the only way out was defeat. Just like the ancient armies of Blue Star, there would always be military supervisors behind them, and anyone who escaped would be killed without mercy. However, he is not from this world, so why should he be blamed? Besides, his own cultivation is only at the Dao Fire Realm. Unlike the people in the Demon Realm, he will inevitably get into trouble once he shows up in public. Seeing that there was still no reaction from below, Ji Xian raised his eyebrows. This actually proved his judgment. If it were any other race, they would have shown up long ago. He thought that the war between the human race was about to break out and the danger was imminent, but this person was hiding here. He raised his hand and waved it, and a sword energy fell. Gu Yuanqing's mind moved, and he used the method of controlling objects. The power of the sword energy was not too strong, and it seemed to be a test, but the level of power was far beyond what he had experienced in previous battles. The sword energy sank into Beiquan for a depth of ten feet before it was completely dissolved. Gu Yuanqing was already feeling a little angry. He didn't want to become an enemy of the human masters in this world at this time, but that didn't mean he would allow himself to be bullied. He was about to disperse the mist. Suddenly, he saw a huge iron-eating beast appear in the sky. It was the old clan leader. It roared, "Human race, the celestial cultivators are not allowed to enter without our permission. You still don't retreat. Are you really going to declare war on our race?" Ji Xian took a deep breath, glanced coldly at the mountain below, and turned into a sword light and disappeared. Gu Yuanqing withdrew his hand, his eyes slightly gloomy. He always felt that this matter would not end so easily. He could feel the character of this person after only a brief contact. Fortunately, this person was in the territory of the Iron-Eating Clan and was cautious in his actions, otherwise there would be even greater trouble. The shadow of the old Iron-Eating Clan leader dissipated, and Gu Yuanqing bowed in that direction. No matter what, it solved his problem. Beiquan Mountain returned to silence, and Gu Yuanqing thought about the words he had just heard. "A war between humans and demons? Could it be that this war is really between humans and demons?" Gu Yuanqing always felt that it wouldn't be that simple, and from his previous conversations with Xing Fei and Lan Tinglie, the friction between humans and demons had not yet reached the point of ringing the nine bells of the Heavenly King, so there must be other reasons. However, I did hear some good news today, which is that celestial cultivators are not allowed to enter other races’ territories without permission, otherwise it would be tantamount to declaring war. Therefore, as long as the Iron-Eating Clan is still there, the troubles they will encounter in the future should all be below the Heavenly Man Realm. Gu Yuanqing is not very confident in dealing with the Heavenly Man Realm cultivators, but he is not so afraid of the Void Sky Realm below them. "No matter what, cultivation is the foundation. Even if you are in the territory of the Iron-Eating Clan, you may not be safe. The best way to deal with trouble is to be strong enough!" Gu Yuanqing walked down from the top of the mountain and saw Aunt Feng standing at the gate of the courtyard. She seemed to sense something was wrong. She was holding the Blood Tiger Demon Sword in her hand, with her true energy circulating in her body, and she looked nervous. Gu Yuanqing smiled slightly: "Auntie, it's okay, you go and have a rest."
Aunt Feng's cultivation has reached the fourth level of Zhenwu at this time. In this sacred mountain, she drinks spiritual water every day, and her cultivation progress is also rapid. This is because she is old and has passed the age of cultivation, and her aptitude is also constantly improving in the spiritual energy. When Gu Yuanqing returned to his courtyard, he saw a figure coming up from the road beside him. It was Zhang Xuanlin. His spiritual power was suppressed by Gu Yuanqing, and he was barely able to control this puppet body. So when he walked over, he was a little faster than ordinary people. Gu Yuanqing waited there, he knew that Zhang Xuanlin must have something to say. It has been almost three months since he came here, and Gu Yuanqing has talked with him less than five times. In the past, Gu Yuanqing didn't want the two people from Lingxu Sect to see his true identity and disturb his practice, so he restricted their movements to the left side. Zhang Xuanlin also seemed reluctant to meet Gu Yuanqing. He either went to the mountains near his courtyard to enjoy the scenery or meditated in the courtyard to relax. Ji Qingyun was much busier. He had to fetch water, clean the courtyard and rooms, boil water and prepare food, and occasionally go to Aunt Feng to get some things. It was fine that Zhang Xuanlin's body was a puppet, as Beiquan Mountain had plenty of spiritual energy, which was equivalent to nourishing it every day. However, Ji Qingyun's mind was completely blocked, and he could not practice his skills. Even if he was at the Divine Platform Realm, he still needed to eat occasionally to maintain his physical condition. Zhang Xuanlin came to Gu Yuanqing's courtyard. "The one just now was also a cultivator from the Demon Realm?" Gu Yuanqing smiled and said, "It's rare that Sect Master Zhang wants to chat with me. Please sit inside." Gu Yuanqing invited Zhang Xuanlin to sit in the courtyard, used the method of controlling objects to get a pot of spiritual water, summoned tea sent from the palace, and brewed two cups. Then he nodded and said, "It is indeed the human race from the Demon Realm." "A cultivator in the Heavenly Realm?" Gu Yuanqing looked at Zhang Xuanlin in surprise. Zhang Xuanlin smiled calmly and said, "Although I am a split spirit, my essence is still the divine consciousness of a celestial being. Even if I am sealed by you, I can still sense it to some extent." Gu Yuanqing smiled and said, "Then, Master Zhang, have you sensed my level of cultivation?" Zhang Xuanlin stared at Gu Yuanqing for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't know. Young Master Gu's aura has merged with this sacred mountain, and it can no longer be measured by ordinary cultivation." Gu Yuanqing exclaimed: "As expected of a cultivator in the Heavenly Man Realm, he can still perceive so many things even in this state." Zhang Xuanlin said, "Young friend Gu, you want to brag about yourself. Even if a cultivator of the Heaven Realm came to the mountain, he wouldn't be able to do anything to you, right?" Gu Yuanqing smiled and said, "Master Zhang, you are overthinking. I am just admiring the wonders of the cultivators in the Heavenly Realm." Zhang Xuanlin didn't want to talk about this. No matter how amazing it was, it was still suppressed by you as soon as it entered the mountain. He brought up the previous topic again. "Just now, I heard from that demonic celestial being that the survival of the human race in this world is in danger. I wonder what this is about?" Gu Yuanqing chuckled: "Doesn't Sect Master Zhang harbor hostility towards the people of the Demon Realm? Why would he care about their presence at this time?" Zhang Xuanlin said calmly, "Since we are in the Demon Realm, we must learn more. The Demon Realm and the cultivation world have been in opposition since ancient times. It is hard to say when a war will break out. I am just making more preparations. Even if it is not useful now, perhaps the younger generations in the cultivation world will be able to use it many years later." Gu Yuanqing smiled slightly: "The sect master is really righteous, which is admirable. It's okay to tell you about this, but let's talk about it later. Before that, I have a deal that is good for both you and me. Senior, do you want to listen to it?" (End of this chapter)
