Rising Xianxia World

Chapter 98 Five Elements Spiritual Roots
"Ok?"

Gu Qiubai looked at the little black cat, and said, "Stay well in the cave, if the high-level sect finds out, I can't protect you."

"Meow—" A meow came in response to him.

Gu Qiubai knew that the little black cat didn't want to care about him, so he simply didn't care.

The little black cat's intelligence is higher than that of ordinary ascetics, unless it wants to die, it will not do anything out of the ordinary.

"Could this little black cat be a big monster in the Nascent Soul stage?" Gu Qiubai glanced at the little black cat with closed eyes and rested his mind, "It's somewhat possible, otherwise there wouldn't be such a big commotion in the core area gone."

At this time, the strength of the little black cat is only at the early stage of foundation establishment, even slightly inferior to that of ordinary early stage foundation monks. It seems that it has been severely injured.

Gu Qiubai didn't ask what happened, it was useless to ask, the little black cat would definitely not tell him.

He collected himself and walked out of the cave slowly.

Fang Jun ignored him for a year, and he was in a free-range state. At this time, he suddenly summoned him, what exactly did he want to do?
Outside the cave, there was a man in black, with an extremely ordinary face, even if he was thrown in the crowd, he would not be noticed.

His whole body seemed to be hidden in the darkness, looming, and the aura on his body was also very weak.

If you didn't look carefully, you would think there was no one there at all.

The corner of Gu Qiubai's mouth curled up. This person was clearly the one who had followed him for nearly a year. It seemed that Fang Jun had indeed appointed him.

"Junior Brother Gu, my name is You Ye, please give me your advice." You Ye's voice was also erratic, but his attitude was very kind.

"So it's Senior Brother You." Gu Qiubai cupped his fists.

He had already learned about the disciples of Liemo Peak from Jiang Tao, and You Ye was one of the ten core disciples of Liemo Peak just like him.

But You Ye is quite special. Although he is not Fang Jun's direct disciple, he is highly regarded by Fang Jun, and he is faintly the first of the top ten core disciples.

What he is good at is stealthy assassination. Even a monk of the same level will be killed by him if he doesn't pay attention.

Even Lei Ying and Lin Ruofeng were afraid of dealing with this person, and would not provoke him easily.

"The words have already been brought, so I won't stay any longer." You Ye said, "The peak master has been waiting in the Fierce Demon Palace for a long time, Junior Brother Gu should leave immediately."

"Well, then we will meet again some other day." Gu Qiubai nodded.

Gu Qiubai walked slowly down the mountain road, and soon came to the front of the Fierce Demon Palace, and stepped in.

Fang Jun was sitting high above the Fierce Demon Palace at this time, playing with two iron gallbladders in his hands, squinting his eyes slightly.

"Greetings to the Peak Master." Gu Qiubai bowed in salute.

When he raised his head and saw Fang Jun's appearance, his pupils suddenly shrank.

At this time, Fang Jun seemed to have aged several decades, his bald head seemed to have turned into an orange peel, his face was covered with wrinkles, and he did not look like he was alive when he first met him.

He was like a crumbling sunset, full of lifelessness, as if he would return to ruins at any moment.

"Why, are you surprised?" Fang Jun asked.

His voice also became a bit vicissitudes and hoarse, as if a mouthful of thick phlegm was stuck in his throat.

"Peak Master, you..." Gu Qiubai said in surprise.

"During the cultivation, the spiritual energy devoured the body, and something went wrong." Fang Jun waved his hand.

"I hope the peak master will take care of his health." Gu Qiubai said.

He still has some sincerity in it, after all, Fang Jun promoted him to a core disciple, which saved him a lot of trouble.

"Haha, take care of yourself." Fang Jun laughed, "My seat's deadline is approaching, I'm afraid I can't take care of myself."

Gu Qiubai was dumbfounded, he didn't know how to speak, he didn't expect Fang Jun to be so direct.

But he wasn't very surprised. After all, he had heard from Jiang Tao before that the peak master had been injured once, and his health was deteriorating. He might not be able to last for a few years.

Otherwise, he would not be eager to train the next one to succeed him as the peak master.

I just didn't expect this day to come so soon.

"Okay, I didn't call you here to talk about it." Fang Jun didn't bother about it any more.

He looked at Gu Qiubai and asked, "I heard that you made a bet with Lin Ruofeng and Lei Ying that you will break through the nine-story Ten Thousand Demon Tower within three years?"

"Yes." Gu Qiubai nodded.

"It's been a year now, how are you preparing?" Fang Jun didn't sneer, but asked aloud.

"The disciple is going to retreat for half a year, so he went for a break." Gu Qiubai replied truthfully.

Anyway, Fang Jun will know about this sooner or later, so it's okay to tell him now.

"How sure are you?" Fang Jun asked without much surprise.

"How sure is Peak Master that he wants to hear from me?" Gu Qiubai smiled.

Fang Jun looked at Gu Qiubai, and suddenly laughed: "You are very smart."

Gu Qiubai was noncommittal, but Fang Jun suddenly called him to the Demon Palace, but he didn't mention his promotion at all, he only cared about whether he was sure to break through the Tower of Demons, there must be something tricky about it.

At this time, Gu Qiubai didn't know what Fang Jun was thinking, he might not be satisfied if he said too much, and naturally he wouldn't be satisfied if he said too little.

It's better to wait for Fang Jun to express his attitude before deciding how to respond.

"Could it be that he saw something?" Gu Qiubai thought in his heart.

Fang Jun took out a blood-colored jade pendant from his bosom, flicked it with his fingers, and threw it at Gu Qiubai: "Go on."

Although Gu Qiubai had doubts in his heart, he still reached out to take it, and looked at Fang Jun puzzled.

"Inject a little spiritual power into it," Fang Jun said.

Gu Qiubai was vigilant in his heart, and looked at the jade pendant in his hand, it was just an ordinary jade, but it contained the blood of a monk, which made the jade pendant turn red.

He released a little bit of spiritual power and touched the jade pendant, but his mind did not relax at all. If there was anything abnormal, he would immediately let go of it.

Gu Qiubai has been in the Wanmo Sect for a long time, and even he himself has not noticed that his mentality is slowly changing.

It is no longer the stunned young man who drank the porridge when he first entered the world of Xianxia.

And after killing an unknown number of monsters in a row, his killing intent also increased day by day.

Gu Qiubai tried to meditate in private to calm down this emotion, but it was completely ineffective, which made him quite helpless.

This may be the price of using the devil system.

Of course, as long as his cultivation can suppress this emotion, it's not a big problem.

Gu Qiubai's spiritual power touched the blood-colored jade pendant, and in an instant, the jade pendant emitted a soft light.

The blood on the jade pendant, which was still red like blood just now, melted as quickly as spring snow. It took only a moment for it to turn into a transparent and clear color.

"Huh—" Gu Qiubai looked up at Fang Jun, "Peak Lord, this jade pendant..."

Seeing the change of the jade pendant, Fang Jun's muddy eyes burst into light, and he said hoarsely, "Sure enough, sure enough!"

"?" Gu Qiubai was even more puzzled.

"The Five Elements Spiritual Root is actually the Five Elements Spiritual Root." Fang Jun stood up excitedly, "I didn't expect to meet a second Five Elements Spiritual Root in my lifetime."

ps: There have been no recommended places during this period, so slow down the update speed, otherwise, once the number of words is too large, it will be put on the shelves directly. For the time being, I want to wait for a few more recommendations and more free chapters before putting them on the shelves. I also take advantage of this paragraph Time to sort out the rhythm of the follow-up plot.
