Chapter 59 Demon Catastrophe
The title of this book is not interesting!
Gu An suddenly didn't dare to open the book. Could it be that Qing Xia Travels was written by Shen Zhen?
Then his filter on the author will be broken!
That's not right. Shen Zhen came from the Daotian Sect of the Dayu Dynasty. How could he publish a book in Taixuan Sect?
After thinking about it, Gu An calmed down and began to read the Black Knight's travel notes.
Shen Zhen lowered his eyes and looked at the table. The ears exposed in his long hair were slightly red.
After Gu An read the first page, he breathed a sigh of relief.
She is not the author of Qing Xia's Travels. The difference between the lines and Qing Xia's Travels is obvious, but it can also be seen that she is indeed imitating Qing Xia's Travels.
He read on patiently.
Every story in Qing Xia's Travels begins with the local landscape, describing the scenery first, and then describing the interactions between people. The same is true in Black Xia's Travels.
However, Shen Zhen's experience is obviously not as good as that of the author of Qing Xia's Travels, and the landscape writing in the book is slightly lacking, at least in Gu An's eyes, as it is not as graphic as Qing Xia's Travels.
The room fell into silence.
After arriving at the back, Shen Zhen stood up and looked at the bookshelf next to him.
Half an hour passed before Gu An closed the Black Knight Travel Notes. Shen Zhen, holding a book in his hands, turned around and asked, "How?"
Gu An asked: "Do you like Qingxia Travels?"
Shen Zhen stood in front of the bookshelf, nodded slightly, and said: "Apart from the practice of martial arts, the first book I read was Qingxia's Travels, but my favorite is your Taixuan Immortal."
Okay, it's very vulgar, vulgar enough to be true.
Gu An smiled and said: "Actually, I also like Qing Xia's Travels. It was because I read Qing Xia's Travels that I couldn't help but want to write it."
Shen Zhen came over immediately, her mood was obviously more excited than before, her eyes were shining, and she started chatting with Gu An about Qingxia Travels.
Although her Travels of the Black Hero also contains the feelings between men and women, it is not as explicit as the Travels of the Green Hero and falls into the category of normal books.
Through Qing Xia's travel notes, the relationship between the two quickly became closer.
They talked from Qingxia's Travel Notes to the Romance of the Gods, and then to Taixuan Immortal Lord.
for a long time.
Gu An couldn't help but ask: "Have you ever met the author of Qingxia's Travels?"
Shen Zhen shook his head slightly and said: "Although I like his Qing Xia Travels very much, I feel that he is not serious and I don't want to see him. You are different. From Fengshen Yanyi to Taixuan Xianzun, the styles are very different, which makes me dissatisfied. You are curious."
When Gu An heard this, he felt a little regretful.
Who is Qing Xia? This is his biggest curiosity in Taixuan Sect.
"After writing Taixuan Immortal Lord, will you continue to write about the orthodoxy dispute similar to The Romance of the Gods?" Shen Zhen looked at Gu An and asked.
Gu An answered ambiguously: "Probably, what about you, Miss Shen, will you stay in Taixuanmen next time?"
Shen Zhen smiled and said: "Taixuanmen is putting pressure on you. In fact, we just need a name. Daotian Sect also needs to join forces with Taixuanmen to intimidate other sects in the Yu Dynasty and face the demons together." Great calamity.”
Gu An raised his eyebrows and asked: "What is the Demon Catastrophe?"
"On this continent, there are nine neighboring dynasties, including Tai Cang and Dayu. The nine dynasties expelled powerful monsters. Therefore, the areas outside the nine dynasties have become places where monsters are rampant. Now, the monsters outside It has reached the point where it threatens the Nine Dynasties. Even if the immortal sects from all sides often send out disciples to kill demons, the outside area is vast, and there are always some demons with extraordinary talents growing up. In a hundred years at most, the Nine Dynasties will usher in demons that have been rare in thousands of years. There will be a great calamity, and the dynasty will be destroyed by then."
When Shen Zhen talked about this, his eyes were solemn.
After Gu An heard this, he felt pressure rushing towards him.
He has already imagined the scene of the mountains and rivers being shattered, Taixuan Sect's frontline unable to support itself, and the disciples being forced to go to the battlefield.
no!
Within a hundred years, the lifespan must reach a million years. After unlocking the next function, the cultivation level will be greatly improved!
Gu An thought to himself, and he asked: "In that case, why don't you practice hard and still think about writing a book?"
Although Shen Zhen is not as good as Ji Xiaoyu, Zhou Tongyou, or Li Ya, his qualifications are not bad, and he also relies on the Taoist Sect. As long as he wants to practice, he can definitely climb up.
Hearing this, Shen Zhen chuckled and said: "Everyone has his own destiny. Cultivation is not my destiny. I prefer reading and writing books. What if I achieve enlightenment in books one day? Who said that you have to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to achieve enlightenment? I Looking at all kinds of books, from ancient times to the present, it seems that there are no Naqi monks alive today."
Gu An couldn't help but look at her differently, how dare she think about it.
The two chatted for a while, Shen Zhen was about to leave, and Gu An stood up to say goodbye.
When she came downstairs, she summoned a flying sword, jumped on it, and flew to the sky after leaving a sentence: "Master Gu, I will set up my cave nearby, so we can communicate more when we have time in the future."
Gu An looked at her leaving back with a smile on his face.
What he was happy about was not that Shen Zhen was going to live nearby, but that the seventh-level spiritual tree was here.
…
Taixuanmen moved very quickly. Less than three days after Shen Zhen left, the saplings of the seventh-order spiritual tree arrived, sent by Gu Zong himself.
After Gu Zong left, Gu An carried the sapling of the seventh-level spiritual tree to the center of the park.
Said to be a sapling, the tree was already one foot tall. Gu An planted it on the grassland connected to the four parks. Mr. Tian and Ye Yan stood behind and watched.
After planting, Gu An looked at the tree with a bright smile on his face.
[Xuan Qingshu (seventh level): 48/8999/65000]
The ultimate life span of 65,000 years is simply incomparable to mortals!
Mr. Tian laughed and said: "The Xuanqing tree is not simple. Although it cannot bear fruit, practicing under the tree can calm the mind and refresh the mind."
When Gu An heard this, his smile became even brighter and he said: "Mr. Tian, from now on you must keep an eye on the Xuanqing tree and don't let it slip up in the slightest."
"Don't worry, it's buried in the ground, and its vitality is stronger than my old bones."
Hearing what Mr. Tian said, Gu An shook his head and laughed. This old man had a bit of humor in him.
Then, Gu An turned and left.
Mr. Tian and Ye Yan were chatting in front of the tree and did not follow his footsteps.
Gu An came all the way to the edge of the Medicine Valley near the mountain wall. A tree was planted in this grassland, but there were no signs of growth yet.
It is the root of the sixth-level spiritual tree, the human-faced tree, that Ye Lan gave to him before.
This tree root has been buried for several years and has been in a state of recovery, with an age of zero.
Gu An once tried to use his wood attribute spiritual power to help it, but it was like a bottomless pit, absorbing his spiritual power without any effect.
He squatted in front of the roots of the human-faced tree. The roots were in the soil, with only the wooden tips sticking out.
After watching for a while, Gu An suddenly felt a subtle spiritual energy flowing from the ground to the Human Face Tree. Looking at the source, he found that it actually came from the Xuanqing Tree.
Could it be that the Xuanqing Tree can help the Human Face Tree to resurrect?
Gu An was pleasantly surprised, but also a little worried. He was afraid that the Human Face Tree would suck the Xuanqing Tree dry. After all, this thing came from Qianqiu Pavilion, and the name seemed a bit evil.
If the human face tree grows up to be really evil, then Gu An will pull it out, but he won't let it destroy the Third Medicine Valley.
Gu An felt that someone needed to keep an eye on it to prevent this thing from growing quietly.
Ye Yan has reached the eighth level of the Qi Training Realm. The improvement of his cultivation basically relies on pills. He practices spears all day long. Although he is absorbing the spiritual energy of the world while wielding the spear, the improvement in his cultivation is not significant.
After he leaves, it's time to recruit someone.
…
Just after midsummer, the forty-three-year-old Gu An came to the outer gate city. He first handed in his manuscript and then wandered around the streets.
He found that the outer city was not as lively as before. There were still many disciples walking on the street, but most of them looked serious and spoke in a low voice.
Gu An looked up and saw four Demon Slayer Hall disciples falling from the sky and landing in front of an attic in the distance. They surrounded a disciple who had just left the building and began to interrogate him.
The disciple was very angry, and the two sides had a quarrel, and then started fighting. When one of the Demon Slayer Hall disciples showed his token, the disciple gave up, and was escorted away by them.
After so many years of catching demon spies, you still haven’t caught them yet?
Gu An frowned. He was just confused and had no intention of intervening, as long as he didn't get caught on his head.
He walked towards the Beast Hall, planning to raise a few monster beasts in the Third Medicine Valley so that Mr. Tian would not feel lonely.
Mr. Tian works hard and has gained Gu An's favor. He now really treats Mr. Tian as his handyman disciple.
Half an hour later, Gu An walked from the gate of the beast hall with three more bags on his waist. These were the beast-taming bags, which contained living creatures, but each bag could only hold one monster.
As soon as he walked out, by chance, he bumped into Lu Jiujia.
This time, Lu Jiujia was alone. He walked towards the beast hall with a gloomy face, but when he saw Gu An, a smile immediately appeared on his face and he walked forward quickly.
"Senior brother, are you here to buy monsters?" Lu Jiujia asked with a warm smile. His face was paler than before, there was an evil aura between his brows, and his whole person exuded a sinister aura.
Gu An nodded and asked with concern: "You seem to be looking a little bad, are you okay?"
"What can I do? I'm just too tired from practicing recently." Lu Jiujia shook his head.
Gu An noticed that there was demonic energy in his body, which was very hidden and difficult to detect if you didn't look carefully.
Is this guy a demon cultivator?
Lu Jiujia refused to say more, so Gu An naturally couldn't ask more questions.
The two exchanged pleasantries for a few words, and Lu Jiujia reminded him before leaving: "Senior brother, don't go out of the valley at night. There have been powerful demonic cultivators sneaking into the outer gate recently."
After that, he turned and left.
Gu An looked at his back and walked towards the third medicine valley without thinking too much.
After arriving at the Third Medicine Valley, he released the three spirit dogs he had just bought. They were all of the bloodline of second-level monsters and the price was not low.
"I plan to stay in Xuan Valley recently, and you will take care of them." Gu An warned Mr. Tian.
Mr. Tian nodded, and Gu An turned around and walked towards the teleportation array.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but when Gu An was standing on the teleportation array, he noticed that Mr. Tian looked at him with some worry.
Before he could think too much, the formation was activated and he arrived at Xuan Valley.
As soon as he arrived at Xuan Valley, Gu An felt a familiar aura.
Li Ya!
He walked down from the formation platform and looked into the distance, only to see Li Ya teaching his disciples how to practice swordsmanship, and even Xiaochuan was also practicing along with him.
After Li Ya confessed, he turned around and walked towards Gu An.
After the two met, Gu An asked curiously: "Why are you here?"
Level 1 of the Dan Formation Realm!
At the age of forty-five, he is in the Dan Formation realm, five years behind Jiang Qiong!
Li Ya chuckled and said, "I'm here to protect you. I heard that the demon king of Tian Jue Sect sneaked into the outer gate. I don't trust you. I want to wait until the matter is settled before going to the inner gate."
