Endless Road: Asura's Extraordinary Journey

After getting up the next morning, Gu Ling went to the closet and chose a black robe with a phoenix pattern embroidered on the back, which was the symbol of the Gu clan. He has always preferred black and almost everything he wears is black.

After getting ready, Gu Ling left the mansion and went to the military library. The library is located in the center of the ancient clan's family grounds, next to the military training area. Since discovering that he was unable to practice, he decided to expand his knowledge in other areas such as academics, military strategy, and weapons theory. The military library became his main place of study, where he often spent whole days reading numerous books.

A few minutes later, Gu Ling came to the military library. This library is called the White Feather Library. It has a history of hundreds of years and has been the book collection place of the ancient clan family. It is seven stories high and has a unique appearance, consisting of brown-red walls and black cornices, and a beautifully decorated interior. Each floor has balconies overlooking the entire library's entrance hall or tribal lands.

Gu Ling walked through the door and walked towards the stairs. Standing at the top of the stairs, he gazed into the center of the library and sighed,"I'm almost running out of reading material." He had read all the books on the first two floors and was working on the third.

On the third floor, Gu Ling walked through several aisles before deciding where to start reading. Dark wooden bookshelves lined each aisle, filled with neatly organized books and scrolls.

He turned to the third aisle and picked up a book on cultivation theory. Although Gu Ling was unable to farm, he always maintained a passion for learning, including farming theory. The book's cover is made of black leather with a bamboo panel, and the pages have a texture as rough as sandpaper. While overlooking the military training area on the balcony, Gu Ling opened the first page of the book

"Cultivation is to challenge the way of heaven itself. Only those with a firm will can embark on the path of cultivation……"Gu Ling read the first page of the book, feeling a strong desire in his heart, but also mixed with bitterness.

"I don’t care what the practice is, but one day I will find a way to get my body to practice it."Gu Ling thought silently in his heart. He looked at the book again, continued reading, and found the content he needed.

"Cultivation starts with the body. In order to cultivate and utilize Qi, one's body must be strong enough to handle the furious energy within one's body. The process of cultivation is divided into five stages: viscera refinement, bone refinement, tendon refinement, muscle refinement and blood refinement. When a person's body is completely refined, he will be able to control the Qi in his Dantian."

After reading about physical cultivation, Gu Ling continued to read about the field of mist creation. Mist creation is an important stage of cultivation. It requires absorbing qi from the surrounding air and guiding it to the location of the Dantian. After successfully entering the field of mist creation, a foggy Dantian will be formed. This field is divided into three stages: early mist creation, mid-term mist creation and late mist creation. Each stage will further condense the mist in the Dantian..In addition to the field of mist creation, Gu Ling also read about other realms, such as the realm of Qi condensation and the realm of core formation. These realms are important stages of cultivation, and each realm has three stages: early, middle and late. Stage. During the reading process, Gu Ling paid special attention to the description of the field of meridian forging, but the book did not provide more information.

Gu Ling found that books on meridian forging and subsequent fields were quite scarce. He guessed that these were more in-depth The training information may be stored in a more secretive place."It's a pity that it doesn't provide more information about the Meridian Forging Field. I figured if there was a book that could elaborate on these things, it would be in a safer place. Gu Ling thought to himself.

He put down the book in his hand and turned his eyes to the children below. They were doing various trainings, and Gu Ling's thoughts gradually drifted away. After reading for a while, he decided to continue looking for related books.

Gu Ling Ling suddenly walked out of the study and realized that it was already very late. The moon was already high in the night sky. He stretched his slightly sore legs, stood up slowly, left the military library, and returned home to sleep.

The next day In the early morning, Gu Ling woke up and went straight to the closet. He was thinking about what clothes he should wear today to attend the evening celebration banquet. Should he choose his favorite black robe or a more luxurious one? After all, tonight is a nearby On the day when the Hong family came to visit, there would be many guests at the dinner party. After some consideration, he decided to choose the black robe embroidered with the phoenix pattern.

"I have to find some books to read before heading to the Festival Hall. Gu Ling thought as he walked out of the mansion. He went to the military library again, walked up the stairs, and came to the bookshelf where he stopped yesterday. He picked a few books, sat on the balcony and started reading

"Gu Ling, the Hong family has arrived and they are waiting for you downstairs."A shout interrupted his reading. Gu Ling looked from the edge of the balcony and saw Gu An waiting at the bottom of the building

"Oh, I think I lost track of time. I'll be down right away. Gu Ling responded. He put the book back to its original place, walked down the steps of the military library, and met Gu An

"How long has the Hong family been here?"Gu Ling asked

"About 30 minutes. Your father sent me to find you because you were late. Also, the miko keeps asking you where you have been."Gu An replied

""Ha" Gu Ling gently rubbed his temples. Every time he mentioned the witch, he always felt a headache.

Gu Ling and Gu An passed through the family territory and came to a huge building. This building was a hundred kilometers high. About a thousand kilometers long, the exterior and top are extremely luxuriously decorated, and equipped with lifelike statues.

Gu Ling noticed that there were many carriages parked outside. The carriage at the front was in a strange shape, it was an armored rhinoceros that condensed the realm. These armors The rhino is 9 kilometers tall and 15 kilometers long, with its back covered with gray armor plates. Although they are not fast, they are surprisingly powerful and ideal for pulling heavy carriages. The armored rhino symbolizes the strength of the Hong family, and their main duty is to serve as Qi-condensation beasts provide power for carriages.

After passing these carriages, Gu Ling and Gu An stepped onto the stairs leading to the hall. After entering the hall, they found that it was enough to accommodate thousands of people. Hundreds of tables were scattered throughout the hall. The walls and ceilings are painted with exquisite patterns. The edges of the hall are lined with huge statues of tribal leaders and patriarchs, which are lifelike.

"Gu Ling, you are finally here! Come say hello to our guests!"A loud voice came from the center of the table. This voice came from Gu Yun, the leader of the Gu clan. He was tall and burly, with a majestic face, and his slightly gray black hair was short and neat.

Standing next to Gu Yun was a team. Among them, a burly middle-aged man is particularly eye-catching. He is wearing a gorgeous white robe, with long brown hair and a thick beard, and a kind face. This middle-aged man is the member of the Hong family. Leader——Hong Tian

"Gu Ling, I'm so happy to see you again! It's been a while. How are you doing lately? Hong Tian asked. Gu

Ling found two girls talking in the crowd behind Hong Tian. They were both 14 years old. One of the girls had black hair and a beautiful face, and was wearing a luxurious golden robe embroidered with a phoenix. She It’s Gu Yun, Gu Di’s daughter. Next to Gu Yun is Hong Yin, Hong Tian’s only daughter. Hong Yin has a brown ponytail, slender eyebrows, big hazel eyes and a bright smile.

Looking at Hong Yin, Gu Ling said to Gu An:"It seems that you are still as obsessed with Hong Yin as before. Why don't you go talk to her? Ryan woke up from his coma and responded:"Easier said than done, why don't you go talk to her yourself?""Gu Ling's voice gradually became smaller, and he felt something was wrong. He looked around at the other members of the Hong family clan, trying to find someone, but couldn't find him. He had a bad feeling, so he turned around quickly."Eat me. foot!"A voice shouted, and at the same time he rushed towards Gu Ling with one foot. Before Gu Ling could stop him, the foot hit him in the face, knocking him down on the table, and food and drinks were scattered everywhere. Gu Ling was in pain He stood up slowly with his face covered, and looked up to see a child standing there with his arms crossed and a satisfied expression on his face.
