Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 353

In a single thought, the whole world became a still picture. On the picture was a city that had gone through catastrophe, and faces that were sad, numb, tired, or depressed.

And Gu Xu is the only dynamic in this picture.

He seems to have become an actor, singing a one-man show on the stage, and the whole world is his background board.

As soon as "Time" took effect, he then cast "Qian Kun", tearing up the space, and teleported a few meters away in a short distance, leaving the range of "Liuhe Sealing Immortal Formation".

Although after breaking through the fourth realm, his true energy became much thicker than before, but the consumption rate of the continuous use of "Time" and "Qiankun" is still extremely terrifying.

After leaving the "Liuhe Sealing Immortal Formation", he resumed his connection with "Xianyunju".

With a thought in his mind, he took out the "astrolabe" from it, and began to use the stars to calculate the position and build a space channel.

His destination was Qingyao Mountain in the northwest of Luojing.

Since his cultivation has not reached the realm of a saint, and the "astrolabe" in his hand is incomplete, the distance of the space channel he built is limited, and he can only shuttle within a range of more than a hundred miles.

The reason for choosing Qingyao Mountain is because there are staggered valleys, mountains and peaks, dense forests, and complex terrain, making it easier to hide.

After that, he could consider fleeing to the northwest frontier, to the territory of the barbarians in the northwest, or he could consider fleeing all the way north to Youzhou.

Thinking of a moment ago, Zhao Yan said to him: "You are Qi Chen, and I am a traitor. The next time we meet, it will probably be on the battlefield."

A bitter smile appeared on Gu Xu's face.

Now the two of them have come to the same goal by different routes, and they have become rebels in the eyes of the Daqi court.

It can be said that the world is unpredictable and fate is impermanent.

As black ripples rose in the air, the entrance of the space channel quickly appeared in front of Gu Xu.

He looked back at the messy city for the last time, and then stepped into the space passage.

After his figure completely disappeared, time finally resumed its flow.

The commander of the imperial guards, Wang Guanyu, and the silver-armored monks he led also regained their ability to move.

They stared at the place where Gu Xu disappeared, and couldn't believe their eyes for a moment——

How could a living person disappear in the blink of an eye?

Also, Gu Xu is obviously only a fourth-level cultivator, and his true energy has also been sealed, so why was he able to break through the restriction of the "Liuhe Sealing Immortal Formation"?

Wang Guanyu really couldn't figure it out.

At this moment, he only felt that his heart was cold, as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

Gu Xu was a criminal who was designated by the emperor to be arrested.

Now the prisoner fled in front of his face.

Although the emperor spends most of his time in retreat, ignoring political affairs.

But what if the emperor becomes furious after knowing about this incident, and wants to severely punish him for his crime of dereliction of duty... the consequences will be disastrous.

Thinking of this, he immediately ordered the silver-armored monks under his command to surround Gu Xu in all directions of Luojing City.

…………

at the same time.

Gu Xu walked out of the space passage and came to the foot of Qingyao Mountain.

At this time, it is the season of bright spring, and the foot of the mountain is full of redbuds, which are colorful from a distance.

With his current cultivation level, he couldn't continuously build a space channel in a short period of time, so he walked straight towards the deepest and most shady place in the forest, planning to find a hidden place to hide, recover some true energy first, and then continue running road.

Gu Xu knew that his escape this time was a bold gamble.

The bet was not only on his ability to escape, but also on the attitude of Luo Chuan, the head of the exorcist department, towards him.

He felt that in today's turmoil in Luojing City, Chief Luo should have played a very important and subtle role - he and Emperor Tianxing were not standing on the same front, but had other thoughts .

Luo Sishou's technique of deduction of heavenly secrets claims to be able to calculate everything in the world.

If he was really a loyal courtier who shared the king's worries and planned to follow Emperor Tianxing's order to arrest himself, then Gu Xu would already be a snail in an earthen pot-doomed.

But if Luo Sishou really had some other thoughts hidden...then Gu Xu's escape, not to mention smooth sailing, would definitely be much easier.

While thinking about this, Gu Xu came to the edge of the cliff, took off the jade pendant that recorded the video from his belt, and took out his official uniform, official hat, official seal, "Shenji Token" and so on from "Xianyunju" Items, throw them all into the deep ravine under the cliff.

Although he did not find traces of tracking spells on these items, just in case, he chose to discard these items related to the Daqi court, so as to prevent anyone from deducing his whereabouts.

Watching these objects fall into the abyss one by one, Gu Xu felt mixed feelings.

After all, they witnessed his struggle after traveling to this world, and witnessed his gradual growth from an insignificant official to the youngest sixth-rank official of the Daqi Dynasty, a non-hereditary viscount and a visiting professor at Longmen Academy.

I thought that after today's "Luoshui Conference", he would gain glory and rise to the top, then marry his beautiful wife, and reach the pinnacle of life under the eyes of everyone.

However, all of this was wiped out because of a sudden order from Emperor Tianxing.

The experience of the past few months is like a dream.

After throwing away these things that used to symbolize status and honor, but now they have become fetters, Gu Xu used his agility, turned around and hurried away in the opposite direction.

Like a ghost, he walked through the dense woods, went around to the other side of the mountain, and then got into a small cave behind the bushes.

He took out a few talisman seals from "Xianyunju", and placed restrictions on the entrance of the cave to hide his breath and cover his whereabouts, then sat cross-legged in the cave, took out a "Barrier Breaking Pill", and prepared to stuff it into his mouth Here, enter the state of practice.

"Breaking Barrier Pill", similar to "Jingxin Pill" and "Changming Pill", is a pill used to stabilize the mind and prevent the erosion of Yin Qi during the cultivation process of the fourth realm monks.

With Gu Xu's character of always pursuing "be prepared for any danger", he had used his spare merits to exchange many bottles of "Barrier Breaking Pill" in the Yamen of the Exorcist Department before he broke through.

Now comes in handy.

He planned to build a space channel again after the true essence was restored, and travel to Daimei Mountain further north.

However, before the elixir entered, he heard the rustling of leaves outside the cave.

Immediately afterwards, accompanied by a blinding golden light, the magic circle outside the cave instantly fell apart and became useless.

"People from the imperial court caught up so quickly."

While thinking about it, Gu Xu cast "Qian Kun" without hesitation, teleported short distances three times in a row, and came to the dense forest that covered the sky and sun outside the cave.

At this time, he was exhausted to the extreme, his true energy was almost exhausted, and he could no longer use the fourth "Qian Kun".

But he still held on, borrowing the power of the "star disk" to fly through the forest at the speed of chasing the wind.

"As expected of the leader of this year's 'Luoshui Conference', even the appearance of running away is much more chic and handsome than the monks of the same generation." At this moment, a familiar voice came from Gu Xu's side.

Hearing this voice, Gu Xu stopped immediately.

Because he knew that even if he tried his best, it was impossible to get rid of this person's pursuit.

"Mr. He," Gu Xu sighed, and said with a wry smile, "This junior has nowhere to go, so you should stop teasing this junior like this."

The person who came to hunt him down was indeed He Yiqun, the younger brother of Daqi Guoshi, the master of Taoism, and the minister of exorcism.

Because when He Yiqun was promoted to the third level, he awakened the supernatural power "shrinking the ground into an inch", and he was able to travel hundreds of miles in an instant - not only was the activation speed faster than Gu Xu's space channel, but it also consumed much less real energy.

Being targeted by this person, even if Gu Xu is full of real energy, it will be difficult to escape.

It's just that Gu Xu can't figure it out——

Didn't this Mr. He always love freedom, love traveling everywhere, and don't even listen to the words of the national teacher?
Why did you suddenly come here on a whim today to hunt yourself down?
As if aware of the doubt in Gu Xu's eyes, He Yiqun smiled and replied: "I was not interested in the frivolous things like catching fugitives. But when someone told me that although this fugitive was only a fourth-level cultivation However, I was able to get rid of the "Liuhe Sealing Immortal Formation" of the imperial guards, so I became a little curious about this fugitive.

“Looking at it now, it’s really worthwhile.

"It's just that I'm wondering about one thing: Why did the well-known proud son of the Qi Dynasty and the leader of this 'Luoshui Conference' suddenly turn into a fugitive who committed treason?"

"I also want to know why." Gu Xu spread his hands and said helplessly.

At the same time, he complained in his heart: the curiosity of Lezi people is really poisonous.

After a brief silence, Gu Xu continued to ask: "Since this junior has satisfied Mr. He's curiosity, can Mr. He also satisfy a little bit of curiosity of this junior for the sake of this junior's inescapable existence?" ?”

"If you have any questions, feel free to ask." He Yiqun said with a smile.

His expression was relaxed and at ease, as if he was not worried that Gu Xu would escape from his palm at all. At the same time, he was also looking forward to how Gu Xu would behave in this desperate situation.

"I want to know, how did Mr. He track down my location?" Gu Xu asked, "Did it rely on Chief Luo's secret deduction technique?"

He Yiqun laughed and said: "Sishou Luo fought with Zhao Changying and the Mangshan Ghost King in the palace today, suffered serious injuries, and is still in a coma, how could he have the strength to deduce your whereabouts?
"I was able to find you smoothly, and I actually relied on Her Royal Highness Princess Zhaoning's method."

"His Royal Highness Princess Zhaoning?" Gu Xu frowned slightly.

He Yiqun's answer somewhat exceeded his expectations.

At the same time, the news about Chief Luo made Gu Xu's thoughts run wild.

He knew that before Luojing City was destroyed today, some kind of unknown agreement had been reached between Luo Sishou and Mangshan Ghost King.

Under such circumstances, Luo Sishou's "severely injured and fell into a coma" is worth pondering.
