Chapter 254: Wuliang River
One of the men from the Sanyang Sect scanned the room and noticed Zheng Kun, a playful smile appearing on his face.
Zheng Kun felt the gaze and his face darkened.
Gu Yuanqing looked back and the man smiled at him again with an ambiguous look in his eyes.
"Do you have a grudge against him?"
"His name is Zhuang Tianlai. Twelve years ago, I fished out a Mystical Dao Soul in the Wuliang River. He saw it and wanted to buy it by force. However, this Dao Soul just happened to match the Dao I had realized, so I naturally refused. So I became enemies with him and had a great battle.
Nine years ago, he found my trace in the ancient world, and he led his fellow disciples to kill me. Although he escaped in the end, his soul was seriously damaged, and he barely recovered three years ago. "Zheng Kun's eyes flashed with murderous intent, but he finally held it back.
He took a deep breath and then said, "Brother Gu, you'd better stay away from me. This man failed to kill me last time, and I'm afraid he still holds a grudge against me. I'm afraid he will take his anger out on you."
Gu Yuanqing smiled dumbly and said, "Although it is said that a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall, if I have to retreat just because of this, my life will be too boring. Besides, the Sanyang Sect seems to have some grudges against me."
Zheng Kun was surprised and asked, "Brother Gu, when you first entered the Ancient Realm, did you also have a feud with the Sanyang Sect? Could it be in the Linglong Realm?"
Gu Yuanqing shook his head and said, "No, it was in the ancient world, the true disciple of the Sanyang Sect, Yu Yun'an."
Zheng Kun's expression was slightly serious. "Yu Yun'an? He ranks fourth among the true disciples, and his cultivation has reached the peak of the Void Heaven."
Gu Yuanqing looked a little strange: "Peak of Xutian?"
Zheng Kun said: "Yes, what happened to Brother Gu?"
"Nothing." Gu Yuanqing smiled, but seemed to be thinking about something.
This Xutian Peak is a bit watery. It is much worse than the Xutian Peak in the Ladder, and is only slightly different from Chang Beilong in the Demon Realm.
At this moment, Gu Yuanqing suddenly sensed someone approaching. It was Zhuang Tianlai from the Sanyang Sect.
Zheng Kun's face suddenly turned cold.
Zhuang Tianlai stood three feet away with his hands behind his back, smiling, "Isn't this Brother Zheng? I haven't seen you for many years. I thought you would never enter the ancient world again!"
Zheng Kun's face was gloomy: "Zhuang Tianlai, don't go too far!"
"Brother Zheng, why do you say that? I just saw an old friend I haven't seen for many years and came to say hello. You don't have to be too alert. After all, I still want to buy some Dao Souls from Brother Zheng."
"You are wishful thinking. I will not sell it to you even if I throw away my Dao Soul."
Zhuang Tianlai chuckled and said, "Don't be too sure about everything."
Zheng Kun clenched his fists, but in the end he just sneered and said no more. Facing a behemoth like the Sanyang Sect, no matter how much he said, it would be useless.
Zhuang Tianlai looked at Gu Yuanqing again: "This Taoist friend looks unfamiliar. It seems that he has just entered the ancient world. I wonder which world he is from?"
Gu Yuanqing said calmly: "Does the Sanyang Sect like to pry into other people's backgrounds as soon as they come?"
"No, if you don't want to talk, forget it. I'm just giving you some advice. It's best not to get along with some people, so as not to get into trouble."
"Can I take this as a warning?"
"What you think is your own business, I am just giving you good advice."
Then, Zhuang Tianlai bowed, smiled gracefully, turned around and left.
Zheng Kun forced a smile and said, "Brother Gu, I'm sorry for causing you trouble. After entering the Wuliang River, it's best for us to separate."
Gu Yuanqing looked at Zhuang Tianlai and said, "Are the people of Sanyang Sect so arrogant?"
Zheng Kun said: "At least this is the case when facing a casual cultivator like me who has no foundation."
Gu Yuanqing smiled and said, "Brother Zheng, don't think too much. I want to learn from you how to fish for the Dao Soul."
Zhuang Tianlai returned to his fellow disciples. Under the cover of the domain, the three of them laughed and chatted about something. Then he suddenly looked at Zheng Kun again.
Zheng Kun felt his hair stand on end, and his face became even uglier. At this moment, the general of the Wei Dynasty, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and shouted, "Time has come, start the battle!"
As soon as the words fell, several cultivators stationed around the magic circle formed magic seals, silently chanted mantras, and transferred their true energy into the base of the formation.
But in the center of the magic circle, black and white energy rose into the sky, intertwined with each other, and finally turned into a deep vortex.
The general of the Great Wei Dynasty said in a deep voice: "The Great Teleportation Array will be open for one stick of incense. Hurry up if you want to enter. If you are late, you will be fined ten ancient coins per day. Anyone who dares to enter will be an enemy of our Great Wei Dynasty!"
As he spoke, a ripple appeared in the light curtain behind him, and it turned into a gate three meters high.
"let's go!"
One by one, the monks took out ancient coins and threw them into a clay jar floating in the air. Then they passed through the light gate, jumped into the vortex, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The three people from Sanyang Sect also entered quickly.
Gu Yuanqing said, "Let's go too. I've heard about Wuliang River many times before, and now I can finally see its true appearance."
Zheng Kun glanced at the three people from Sanyang Sect and said in a low voice, "Why not wait a little longer?"
Gu Yuanqing smiled calmly: "That's fine, there's no need to rush."
After a while, the three people from Sanyang Sect entered the teleportation formation.
Zheng Kuncai said: "Let's go."
The two handed over the ancient coins and came to the Great Teleportation Array. Zheng Kun jumped in first, followed by Gu Yuanqing.
As soon as I entered, I felt huge forces coming from all directions, some compressing towards the middle, and some pulling towards the surroundings.
Gu Yuanqing was also well prepared. With the Void Sky Domain covering his entire body, he was able to easily resist the attack and even had enough energy to explore the surroundings with his divine sense.
"This formation also borrows the power of space, but unfortunately the time is too short to examine it in detail."
In the blink of an eye, my eyes lit up and I saw a strange place.
This place is on the top of the mountain, and like Dongyuan City, there is a huge magic array.
Zheng Kun was waiting in front, and when he saw Gu Yuanqing appear, he shouted softly, "Follow me!"
Then he used his skills to go down the mountain.
Gu Yuan followed behind, taking in the surrounding scenery.
The mountains here are all bare, the rocks are dark brown and very hard, like steel.
What attracted Gu Yuanqing's attention most was the large river in the distance that stretched to unknown depths.
The river was extremely wide. He had to open his Void Sky Pupil to see the other side of the river, which was probably hundreds of miles away.
It is called a river only because it has a source. Looking upstream, you can vaguely see that the river seems to be falling from the sky!
The river is light silver in color, with occasional colorful lights flickering faintly, as if various Taoist aspirations are hidden in it.
The water flows rapidly and a majestic atmosphere arises spontaneously.
When his divine sense probed into it, he found that this was not water at all, but was clearly made up of various vital energies. There was a great force that brought together the vital energies with different properties.
Zheng Kun ran for nearly a hundred miles before he stopped. Along the way, he saw several monks fishing on the shore.
"This is the Wuliang River!"
Gu Yuanqing stood on the edge of the cliff and looked around, amazed in his heart. Such a vast gathering of vital energy could indeed be described as immeasurable.
