"God help me..." Gu Chen returned to the room and sighed happily.
Now Gu Chen's cultivation has reached the seventh level of the Houtian Realm. The distance from the seventh level to the eighth level is much larger than the sixth level than the seventh level. Gu Chen continuously takes high-grade Yuan Jue Spiritual Liquid, and his daily cultivation time is longer than before.
, the cultivation level increases every day, but even so, it still takes much longer to practice to the eighth level of Houtian realm than from the sixth to seventh level.
Unless a large amount of spiritual stones are provided so that Gu Chen can practice the Soul Devouring Art, his training speed will explode. It will no longer be a problem for him to quickly reach the eighth or ninth level the day after tomorrow.
How easy is it to have a large amount of spirit stones? If Gu Chen keeps practicing with the Spirit Devouring Art, all the Gu family's properties will be sold into spirit stones, which will not be enough for Gu Chen to practice.
Unless you have the support of a large sect of cultivating immortals, or you obtain a spiritual stone mine yourself, how can you have so many spiritual stones?
However, just when Gu Chen was worried about the large number of spirit stones, he unexpectedly heard the news about the spirit-devouring beast.
Soul-devouring beasts are born with the spirit stone veins. Hearing the news about the soul-eating beasts is equivalent to hearing the news about the spirit stone veins.
Gu Chen immediately decided to go to the Beitaishan Mine. The Beitaishan Mine was an industry managed by his father. At the moment, Gu Cangqiong was in retreat. Gu Chen happened to handle this matter on behalf of his father and entered the mine to kill the Soul-Eating Beast.
Attached is the search for the location of the spirit stone veins.
Gu Chen's daily storage was replaced by spiritual liquid. Xiaobai stopped eating other things after taking the spiritual liquid. All Gu Chen's things were in the Qiankun bracelet. He bought a horse directly in Leshui City and left the city to the south.
Run.
The Beitaishan mine is located about a hundred miles south of Leshui City. Taishan is a big mountain. It is hundreds of miles away from the south to the north and is thousands of feet high. The mine is located at the foot of the northern mountain of Taishan. There is a small town called Beitaishan Town, so
It's called Beitaishan Mine.
More than an hour later, Gu Chen arrived at Beitaishan Town. Without stopping, he ran directly to the Beitaishan Mine five miles south of the town. This is an industry managed by his father. Gu Cangqiong took him here when he was a child. The route Gu Chen
Remember them all.
After leaving Beitaishan Town, we ran for more than three miles, and a small village appeared in front of us. This small village is where the miners in the mine take turns to rest. Now there are monsters in the mine, and all the living miners are in this village.
.
The soul-devouring beast does not eat people, and it only bites five or six people to death when it is woken up while sleeping. Therefore, there are so many people in the village now.
"Master Gu...it's Master Gu, why are you here?" There are many servants of the Gu family in the village comforting the miners. This mine is an industry managed by Gu Cangqiong. Naturally, these servants are subordinates of Gu Cangqiong and they all know each other.
Gu Chen, seeing Gu Chen appear in the village, immediately surrounded him.
Gu Chen glanced at them, nodded and smiled: "I'll get rid of the demon."
Exorcism? A ten-year-old boy actually said he wanted to exterminate demons? Who in the Gu family didn't know that this young master Gu was the one with the worst cultivation and the weakest qualifications among the three direct disciples of the Gu family?
Although Gu Chen is now more than ten centimeters taller than two months ago and his body is several times stronger, in the eyes of adults, he is still a ten-year-old kid.
A ten-year-old brat, a famous loser of the Gu family, said he was here to slay demons? Isn't this a joke?
But no one laughed.
These servants are all subordinates of Gu Cangqiong, so naturally they dare not laugh at Gu Chen. However, when the miners heard that the servants of the Gu family were called Master Gu Chen, they only knew that the Gu family was a big family of cultivators, and everyone in the family was a cultivator.
, all have incredible magical powers.
When Mr. Gu said that he wanted to get rid of the demon, these miners were too late to be happy. If they wanted to laugh, they would laugh happily, and they would not find Gu Chen's words funny.
"I'm here to get rid of the demon." The first words a ten-year-old boy said when he entered the village sat down on a white horse with a white fox sitting on his shoulders.
This sentence was said with great confidence. Although everyone in the Gu family knew that Gu Chen was the last disciple of the three generations of the Gu family, after hearing Gu Chen's words, there was a feeling of belief that Gu Chen could really eliminate demons.
The scene was silent, and everyone looked at the boy with the white fox sitting on his shoulder.
"Haha...haha..." The silent scene only lasted for a few breaths, and suddenly a burst of laughter came from a house in front, as if a huge joke had been heard, a kind of crazy laughter.
"You're just a loser. How dare you come to slay demons without being afraid of making people laugh? Aren't you afraid of losing the Gu family's face? It's funny, it's really funny." As the sound got louder and louder, the door creaked, and a young man
Came out from inside.
"Gu He..." Gu Chen said softly as he watched the young man walk out of the house.
Furukawa, the eldest son of Gu Canghai and the eldest brother of Gu Yang, is 17 years old this year. His cultivation has reached the ninth level of the acquired realm, and is only one step away from the innate realm.
"Gu Chen, this is the funniest joke I have ever heard... Are you here to get rid of the demon? Haha..." Gu He walked over step by step, covering his stomach with one hand, as if his stomach hurt from laughing.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak..." Gu Chen didn't say anything, but Xiaobai was very unhappy, baring his teeth and roaring at Gu He.
It wasn't until Gu He walked up to him that Gu Chen said, "Are you here to slay the demon too?"
Furukawa raised his head and said: "Yes, the clan leader sent me to eradicate that monster. You, please don't be embarrassed here."
"You can't do it...you're too weak." Gu Chenyao shook his head.
"What did you say?" Furukawa raised his thick eyebrows and shouted loudly: "Let me let you little loser know who is weak."
Furukawa shouted loudly, kicked his feet, jumped more than ten feet high, and punched Gu Chen who was sitting on the horseback.
A punch from the acquired ninth level.
The acquired nine-layer physical body has the power of nine stones. With one punch, the sudden burst of power is definitely more than twice the initial power.
For example, a person may only have the strength of one hundred kilograms, but he can easily punch two hundred kilograms of force with one punch. Those with advanced skills can even punch three hundred kilograms of force, which is three times the strength of the physical body.
Gu Chen looked at the violent punch coming from far and near, from small to large, his waist sank, he made a fist with his right hand, and faced Furukawa's punch head on, like a cannonball.
Gu Chen's eyes widened, and the powerful Vajra Fist struck with the most powerful punch, Vajra glared angrily.
Gu Chen only used the strength of the acquired fourth level. However, the powerful Vajra Fist is the most superior boxing method in the acquired realm. Gu Chen has practiced the powerful Vajra Fist to the pinnacle. This fist gives full play to the four powers of the physical body.
Double the force.
A loud noise.
The two fists collided instantly.
The white horse under the seat let out a long roar, took a step back, bent its legs to the ground, and immediately knelt on the ground.
Kneeling on all fours, there were several sounds of bones colliding with stones. All four legs of the white horse were broken, the bones collapsed, the body fell to the side, and he died immediately.
Gu Chen turned over and dismounted, and took three steps back before he was able to neutralize all the force of Furukawa's punch.
Such a powerful punch, its power definitely exceeds the power of twenty stones. Furukawa's use of boxing techniques has also reached the level of proficiency.
Although Gu Chen only showed the strength of the acquired fourth level, his physical body had actually reached the acquired seventh level. Although he was knocked back three steps by Furukawa's punch, his physical body was not injured at all, and he only felt a slight numbness in his arm.
"Hmph...little loser, who is too weak?"
Furukawa landed with a steady breath, and raised his head to Gu Chen, "If you want to get rid of the monster, just go to the mine, and the monster will eat it in one bite."
Furukawa said he was strong, but he was surprised in his heart, "How could he burst out with a power of more than ten stones when he was only at the fourth level of acquired strength? Could it be that his understanding of boxing is deeper than mine?"
"The boxing skills are good, but they need to be improved." Gu Chen said with neither joy nor sadness. He glanced at the dying white horse and thought to himself: "It cost me two thousand coins to get a good horse."
"What did you say? Little loser, you still want to try a punch?" Seeing the expression on Gu Chen's young face that looked like he had seen through the world, Furukawa felt aggrieved and became angry.
"I'm not interested. You should save your strength to deal with the monster. The chance of survival is greater." After Gu Chen finished speaking, he stopped entangled with Furukawa, turned around and walked to the other side, towards the direction of the mine.
"Squeak, squeak..." Xiaobai sat on Gu Chen's shoulder, holding his mouth with one hand, and pointing at Gu He with the other, grinning and screaming. Anyone could tell from that look that he was definitely mocking.
In full public view, Furukawa had bullied the weak and beat Gu Chen to death. Gu Chen did not get angry and provoke an escalation of the conflict, and Furukawa was too embarrassed to take action a second time.
Looking at the fox that laughed at him, Furukawa's eyes filled with anger, "This dead fox, next time I meet you, I will definitely cut off your fur and eat your fox meat."
Watching Gu Chen walk out of the village and walk towards the mine, Furukawa's heart moved, "There is no one else in the mine, you little waste, you dead fox, I will make you die an ugly death."
Seeing that Gu Chen had disappeared from sight, Gu He also walked towards the mine.
It didn't take long for Gu Chen to arrive at the entrance of the Beitaishan mine. He stopped at the entrance and paused for a moment to look at it. An imperceptible smile flashed at the corner of his mouth and he entered the mine.
As soon as Gu Chen entered the mine, Gu He emerged from the woods in the distance and quickly ran to the entrance of the cave. He listened at the entrance for a while and then immediately entered the mine.
This mine has been mined for more than ten years. The tunnels inside the mine have been dug by the miners in all directions, like an intertwined spider web, spread all over the ground of Taishan, with a radius of dozens of miles, and it is simply a huge maze.
If you are not a miner who often mines in mines, you will basically get lost if you enter a mine and walk in a spider web-shaped cave.
Even miners who often expand their mines have to form a team of dozens of people to enter the mine. Every time they enter the mine, they leave some special marks to avoid getting lost.
If you get lost in a mine, if you are unlucky, you can walk for days and nights without being able to get out.
Although miners enter the mines every year, the distribution area of the mines is too wide. Many remote places have not been visited by miners for a long time. Last time, a miner accidentally mistook the Soul Devouring Beast for ore to mine.
It was their team that entered a mine they had never been to before.
Gu Chen went into the mine not to dig, but to look for soul-devouring beasts. There were 100 bottles of high-quality Yuan-Gathering Spirit Liquid in the Qiankun Bracelet. He could stay in the mine for several months. He knew that the passages in the mine were intricate.
, we have long been prepared for a long-term battle.
Therefore, Gu Chen did not go directly along the main road of the mine. Instead, he chose some remote mines nearby, especially those with few people. The Soul-Eating Beast did not want to cause conflicts with people.
It will try to stay in places where no one is around, so the more remote the mine, the greater the chance of finding the Soul-Eating Beast.
A whole day passed, and Gu Chen found no trace of the soul-eating beast. At night, Gu Chen meditated and practiced. Although it was always dark deep in the cave and it was impossible to tell the difference between day and night, when night came, his body still had some energy.
reaction.
Furukawa followed Gu Chen into the mine and walked for a whole day. Furukawa did not dare to follow him any closer. He listened to the sound every time to identify his position. There were too many intersections in the mine and Gu Chen had been killed long ago.
He lost track of him, but he was also prepared and brought enough firebrands, torches, and storage items.
Compared to Furukawa's torches and fires, Guchen's lighting equipment is much more advanced. A luminous pearl shines exceptionally brightly in a dark cave, illuminating everything around it as if it were daytime.
He practiced at night and looked for traces of the Soul-Eating Beast during the day. Three days passed quickly, and he still didn't encounter the Soul-Eating Beast. Gu Chen had an amazing memory and made sure that he never walked through the same mine. It seemed that he was in the criss-crossing mines.
Finding a soul-eating beast in a cave is really not an easy task.
Today, as Gu Chen continued to walk forward, a series of sounds suddenly came from the cave in front of him. Something happened. Gu Chen was overjoyed and walked in the direction of the sound.
The sound in this cave is not like outside. It dissipates in the vast surroundings and spreads a long distance along the mine.
Gu Chen quickly walked several hundred meters towards the source of the sound, and then he gradually heard clearly that the sound coming was the sound of a fight. From the rhythm of the sound, it was certain that the fight was very fierce.
"Gu He has already fought against the soul-devouring beast? There shouldn't be anyone else." Gu Chen accelerated his advance.
Going straight forward, the sound of fighting became louder and louder. After advancing more than two hundred meters, Gu Chen judged from the sound coming that the source of the sound was in the passage after the turn ahead.
Heightened his vigilance, Gu Chen continued to walk forward, and when he turned a corner, the luminous pearl in his hand illuminated the passage ahead like daylight.
The moment Gu Chen appeared, the sound of fighting stopped immediately, and four giant eyes as big as lanterns swept towards Gu Chen.
Where is the figure of Furukawa? Both sides of the battle are soul-devouring beasts with skin like ore and teeth like stone pillars. This is a completely unexpected scene.
Seeing the two soul-devouring beasts, Gu Chen didn't feel the slightest bit disappointed. His face was shocked, and his heart immediately burst into joy.
A Soul-Eating Beast is the same as a normal adult Soul-Eating Beast, about one foot tall and three feet long, with a head like a basket and eyes like lanterns. At this moment, its skin, which is harder than stone, is covered with scars and bleeding.
The other soul-eating beast was the reason for Gu Chen's change of expression. It was much larger than the normal adult soul-eating beast, about two feet tall and five feet long. Gu Chen's sudden appearance made it have blazing fire in its eyes.
Earth's Fury, it only had some marks of being attacked, but was not injured. The bleeding soul-devouring beast was injured by it.
