Seeing Liang Yan's respectful attitude and alert eyes, Gu Zhiyu couldn't help but smile and said: "Boy, among the eight peaks of Yungang, which peak are you a disciple of?"
Liang Yan was shocked when he heard this and asked: "Senior, how do you know that I am a disciple of Yungang Sect?"
"Hahaha, although your sword technique has some changes, its foundation is still the "Flying Thunder God Sword Technique". How can I not see it?"
"This person actually knows the Flying Thunder Sword Technique?!" Liang Yan was slightly startled, and secretly thought in his heart: "Is this person also a monk from Nanchui? But even so, the Flying Thunder Divine Sword Technique is a secret that is not passed down by the Yungang Sect.
, my 'Three Ultimate Thunder Sword' has even changed its sword moves, how on earth could this person see the details of my sword moves?"
Thinking of this, Liang Yan's heart suddenly lit up and he had a vague guess.
"Could it be that this person is actually a member of my Yungang Sect?"
As soon as this idea came to my mind, I heard the middle-aged man in blue clothes and sandals across from me laugh and say: "Boy, even if you don't tell me, I can probably guess that among the eight peaks of Yungang, there is only one person who is qualified to inherit the "Flying Thunder God Sword Technique"
, only Tiance, Guanyu, and Shenju are the three peaks. If it is not passed down by the sect master personally, then it is the disciples of these three peaks."
When Liang Yan heard this, most of his guesses were confirmed. He immediately cupped his hands and said, "I am the direct disciple of Guanyufeng."
"Yes." The middle-aged man nodded and asked, "Who is your master?"
"Honored Master Yu Xuanji."
"Oh? Junior Brother Yu is already the master of a peak? That's right. Back then, I saw that although this person has a weird personality, he has great perseverance and extremely talented people, and he will definitely achieve something in the future!"
The man seemed to be very happy as he spoke. He poked the ground with his bamboo stick and said with a smile, "Looks like I didn't make a mistake! Not to mention Junior Brother Yu's own achievements, just his impressive outlook.
, that is also quite vicious!”
Liang Yan was slightly stunned. He looked up and saw the middle-aged man looking at him up and down, with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
"Yu Xuanji has made a good disciple, and he has cultivated Jian Gang in the Juyuan Realm. It seems that I have a successor for the Yungang Sect!" the middle-aged man chuckled.
"Senior, you are so complimentary. There are so many talents in the Yungang Sect, and this kid is just a drop in the ocean." Liang Yan cupped his hands and asked, "I don't know the name of my senior yet, can you give me some advice?"
"My name is Gu Zhiyu, so I should be your senior uncle."
"Grain Rain?"
Liang Yan's face showed a strange look.
If he remembered correctly, Leya from the Yunyan Club once said that the person who taught her swordsmanship was also named Gu Zhiyu.
Now it seems that if this person is really the senior master of Yungang Sect, then it would not be surprising that there is a hint of the sword intention of the Flying Thunder God Sword Technique in Leya's swordsmanship.
But the problem is, the Yungang Sect's cultivation level is above the Golden Core realm, except for the eight peak masters, there are only a few elders and worshipers, and the total does not exceed 20 people.
Liang Yan had long been familiar with the names of these people, but he had never heard of an uncle named "Gu Zhiyu".
The middle-aged man seemed to see what Liang Yan was thinking, and couldn't help but smile and said: "It's normal that you don't recognize me. After all, I left Nanchui three hundred years ago. At that time, your master Yu Xuanji
It hasn’t formed a golden elixir yet!”
"I see." Liang Yan nodded and said, "I didn't expect to meet Liang Yan, a senior disciple of the Yungang Sect, in a place like this. See Uncle Gu."
Gu Zhiyu laughed and said: "Since we are both from the end of the world, why do we need to perform these polite rituals? Come on, come on, I will take you to my cave. I haven't chatted with anyone for a long time."
Liang Yan smiled slightly, raised his hand to put away the Mayfly Sword, and took big steps to follow Gu Zhiyu.
The two of them walked along the bamboo forest path for a while, and then they saw a house made of bamboo and wood. It had a simple style and exquisite shape. It was obvious that a lot of thought had been put into it.
Next to the bamboo house, there is a small bridge, flowing water, and swaying windmills. It looks like an idyllic scenery, very pleasant.
This kind of scene, if placed in the outside world, would certainly be an ordinary farmer's residence, but in this hell, it can be regarded as a strange sight.
However, considering the abundant spiritual energy here, it doesn't seem strange that such a scenery exists.
"Uncle, it's a good place to live. It's like a paradise in hell!" Liang Yan couldn't help but praise.
"Haha, it was all Gu who had nothing to do and was just having fun." Gu Zhiyu shook his head nonchalantly and walked into the bamboo house with Liang Yan.
The two of them sat down in front of a blue stone table. Gu Zhiyu made a pot of tea at the table, filled a cup for each of them, and then slowly said: "This hell is not a good place. What is your kid?"
How did you get in?"
Liang Yan sighed softly and gave an overview of the circumstances of his arrival. Of course, he hid everything about Witch Wuxin. He only said that he was ordered to investigate and accidentally got involved in the Nine Nether Alliance.
Disputes.
"Nine Nether Alliance" Gu Zhiyu narrowed his eyes and said: "I didn't expect that these remnants are still alive and would cause such a big storm in Nanchui!"
"This matter is a long story, but fortunately, with the help of two seniors from Wushuang City, and the last mysterious Taoist taking action, Gui Si was re-sealed, and the sentient beings in Nanchui also escaped the disaster."
Liang Yan said slowly.
"Haha, it turns out that it was fellow Taoists from Wushuang City who took action." Gu Zhiyu said with a smile, "But I don't know which two people it is?"
"They claim that they don't listen to lay people and Fangli people."
"Well, it seems a bit familiar, but I don't have many contacts with the monks in Wushuang City, and I'm not very familiar with these two people," Gu Zhiyu said thoughtfully.
When Liang Yan heard this, he suddenly became interested and asked: "Uncle, why did you leave Nanchui back then, and where did you go after that?"
Gu Zhiyu put down the tea cup in his hand and took a deep breath. There was a trace of reminiscence in his eyes, as if he was recalling the past.
After a long time, he finally smiled twice and said: "It's okay not to mention the old things in adulthood. When I left Yungang Sect, it was entirely because of my own obsession. I ended up in the current situation, and Gu has no regrets.
The only thing I feel guilty about is the sect, and I have failed to live up to the cultivation of my master and his elders."
Liang Yan saw that although he forced a smile, but his expression was a little lonely, he couldn't help but nodded and said: "Since the master doesn't want to talk about it, I won't mention it anymore."
Gu Zhiyu laughed and said: "Gu was considered a young man in the sect back then. The only three core disciples of the Yungang Sect, apart from Senior Brother Baiyun and Senior Brother Shan Hezai, was Gu. But I don't know about these two senior brothers.
What now?"
"Uncle Shan He Zai is already the sect leader of Yungang Sect, and as for Uncle Baiyun, he is the peak leader of Tiance Peak."
"It seems that both senior brothers are doing well, so Gu is relieved." Gu Zhiyu smiled softly, picked up the teacup on the table, and took another sip.
"Actually, Gu went to the Antarctic Immortal Continent, where he learned some swordsmanship from the Taoist Sect. Later, because of a secret exploration, he accidentally fell into the Nine Netherworld, and when he woke up, he came here in a daze."
After hearing this, Liang Yan hurriedly asked: "How many years have you been here, uncle? Have you never thought about leaving here?"
"Why haven't you thought about it?" Gu Zhiyu raised his eyebrows and said: "To tell you the truth, when I first entered here, I was only at the peak of the Juyuan Realm. Now two hundred years have passed by and I have already reached the golden elixir level.
I’ve reached my peak, but I still haven’t found a way out!”
Liang Yan was shocked when he heard this.
There are two things that surprise me. One is that Gu Zhiyu is truly a genius. You should know that there is a lack of spiritual energy in Hell. Not only is this person able to form elixirs here, but he can actually cultivate golden elixirs within two hundred years.
The peak, and judging from the strength he showed just now, I'm afraid it's not much different from Shan He Zai.
The second is that even though a person as talented and beautiful as Gu Zhiyu spent two hundred years, he still couldn't find a way to escape from here, which shows how strong this cage is!
"Master uncle has been here for two hundred years. Don't you have any clues?" Liang Yan asked unwillingly.
"Hey, boy, I have been exploring everywhere over the years, but there are very few clues about the truth about this place." Gu Zhiyu drank a cup of tea and said again: "But there is one thing worth noting, entering the underworld.
There are tens of thousands of people, but none of them have a cultivation level higher than that of the Golden Pill, and the only few Golden Pill monks in Hell have made breakthroughs in this world."
"Isn't everyone aware of this?"
"This is very unusual!" Gu Zhiyu suddenly turned serious, and his voice became lower and lower: "Why do you think I am hiding in this bamboo forest?"
Liang Yan was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Why? Is there someone else in Hell that makes my uncle afraid?"
As far as he knew, even the leaders of the four major alliances who were recognized as the strongest and had the highest level of cultivation in the middle stage of Jindan could not be the combined enemy of Gu Zhiyu.
"Hmph, after I broke through the golden elixir, I had a vague feeling. I always felt that I was being watched by others, but I didn't pay too much attention at that time. Moreover, I was too aggressive and vowed to surpass the leaders of the four major alliances, so
After practicing hard, I finally broke through the bottlenecks one after another and reached the current state."
Gu Zhiyu said softly: "But as my realm got higher, the feeling of being spied on became stronger, until one day, it came to the door."
When Liang Yan heard this, his breathing became a little faster and he asked: "It? Who is it?"
"It's the thing you just met outside the bamboo forest."
"What?"
Liang Yan was startled and asked subconsciously: "What on earth is that thing?"
"I can't tell." Gu Zhiyu shook his head and said: "It has no entity, but it is everywhere. No matter how it escapes, it won't be long before it comes after me, as if it can sense my position at all times. And
This thing can control the energy of death, and its magical powers are strange and unpredictable. I have fought with it no less than thirty times, and I have been at a disadvantage every time."
When he said this, he sighed softly: "If I hadn't seen through several loopholes in the circulation of its dead energy at the critical moment, and finally escaped here, I'm afraid I would be a mummy right now."
"The gray fog is so powerful?" Liang Yan frowned and said, "But why didn't those gray fog chase in just now? And what's the matter with such a strong spiritual energy in this place?"
"Because there is a piece of fairy jade here." Gu Zhiyu said lightly.
"Xianyu?"
Liang Yan has been in Hell for more than ten years and has only heard of immortal stones but not of immortal jade.
"Haha, have you ever thought about why immortal stones exist in a barren land like Hell?"
In an extremely calm tone, Gu Zhiyu told the shocking secret that he didn't know: "According to my investigation, there should be six pieces of fairy jade in the entire hell, and these six pieces of fairy jade are the source of the spiritual energy of all fairy stones!
"
"This is happening!"
Liang Yan was shocked. You must know that the monks of the four major alliances have been fighting for the immortal stone all year round. Sometimes hundreds of monks will die because of a large vein of immortal stone.
But who knew that the source of all fairy stones is only six pieces of fairy jade, and one of them is right here!
Then Gu Zhiyu slowly said: "Xianyu can not only provide abundant spiritual power, but it is also the only thing here that can resist the gray fog. I relied on the spiritual energy in the fairy jade to set up a Taoist gate on the edge of the bamboo forest.
Only with the Demon-Slaying Sword Formation can we barely resist the invasion of the gray mist."
"I see."
When Liang Yan heard this, he finally cleared up all the doubts in his heart. He smiled and said: "The spiritual energy in this bamboo forest is so rich, in an environment like Hell, it can be said that
This is the blessed land of Cave Heaven. It is a blessing in disguise that Master can find this treasured land."
Gu Zhiyu smiled bitterly and said: "It is both a blessed place and a prison. The gray mist is guarding here, and I can't get out at all. Although this place is rich in spiritual energy, if I stay here all the time, there is no way I can escape from the hell."
."
After hearing this, Liang Yan couldn't help but fall into silence.
Although this place is good, it is only compared to Hades. If placed in the outside world, it would be just an ordinary place of cultivation. And who is willing to spend the rest of his life in this dark place?
"Now that I think about it, the leaders of the four major alliances must know something." Gu Zhiyu said to himself: "Except for the leader of the Flying Star Alliance, there are at least four to five hundred other people who have stepped into the Golden Core Realm.
Years have passed, but their cultivation has never exceeded the middle stage of Golden Core. If they say they don’t know the existence of gray mist, I don’t believe it!”
"You mean they deliberately suppressed their cultivation just to avoid being chased by this weird gray mist?" Liang Yan asked.
"Yes, the four major alliance leaders have been practicing in the underworld for so many years, and they may know far more than we imagined. It's a pity that I am trapped in the bamboo forest now, otherwise I would have to visit them one by one to see what information I can collect!" Gu Zhi
Yu narrowed his eyes slightly.
When he said this, seeing Liang Yan being silent, he couldn't help but smile again: "Although I can't get out, you can get out!"
"I? Master, I'm joking. Even you are scared of this gray mist. How can you get out of here?" Liang Yan shook his head and said.
"No!"
Gu Zhiyu smiled and said: "If you hadn't broken into the bamboo forest by yourself, this gray mist would not have paid attention to you at all. The only people it really wants to kill are monks above the Golden Core realm, and the higher the realm, the more it can arouse it.
Attention."
"When the gray fog becomes thinner next time, I will have a way to send you out!"
