Chapter 4: The Missing Genius
"Idiot!" Gu Cheng coldly spit out two words.
Just when Zhou Tianbao thought he had a plan and gave up his defense and attacked wildly, Gu Cheng's whole person suddenly retreated a few steps back.
Immediately after, Gu Cheng threw away the sword in his hand and quickly pinched the magic technique, and a mysterious and mysterious mana energy instantly emerged from his dantian part, merging into the void, and a trace of fiery sparks flashed.
All this happened in an instant, seeing such a scene, Zhou Tianbao's face suddenly changed greatly, and an unprecedented strong sense of crisis emerged in his heart, but he was attacking with all his strength at the moment, and he couldn't stop at all.
Before he could rush in front of Gu Cheng, Gu Cheng's spell had already been prepared, the fireball technique, which quickly took shape in Gu Cheng's hands, and about one-tenth of the mana in his body was lost, turning into a fiery fireball the size of a skull.
Under Gu Cheng's control, the blazing fireball flew directly towards Zhou Tianbao.
With a bang, the fireball hit Zhou Tianbao's two hammers, the hammers flew out of his hand, and Zhou Tianbao himself was shocked back by as many as seven or eight steps, and fell directly to the ground, a wisp of scarlet blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and his face was full of frightened expressions.
"Spell, this is a spell, you are not an ordinary person!"
"You're a monk, how is this possible!"
Zhou Tianbao's face was full of fear, but his movements were not slow at all, and the whole person got up one by one, and immediately rushed towards the large army.
In the face of a monk who knew how to spell, he didn't fight at all.
However, as long as he hides in the group of rogues, even if Gu Cheng is a monk, he can't help him, after all, Gu Cheng's cultivation is not high, and he can't cast many spells, so what can he do in the face of nearly a thousand bandits.
But Gu Cheng had been preparing for so long, he just didn't want to give him a chance to escape, and how could he let him get his wish so easily.
In the middle of the roar, three more fireballs flew in, and blocked all of Zhou Tianbao's paths, and before Zhou Tianbao could figure out a way to dodge, the fireballs with amazing speed had already rushed in front of him. With three explosions, two fireballs exploded around him, and the other fireball hit him directly in the chest, blood splattered, and he died tragically in an instant, and even the body was not saved.
"Kill Zhou Tianbao, the first bandit of Huaishan, and gain 100% killing experience, and add 200 experience points"
"Use the Fireball Technique to gain an understanding, and the Fireball Technique experience points are increased by 2 points"
Two system messages sounded in his mind, and Gu Cheng couldn't help but laugh.
But seeing such a scene, everyone else present was stunned!
Not only those rogues and bandits, but also those militia martial artists in Gujiazhuang.
Those rogue bandits didn't expect that their invincible boss would die so soon, and they couldn't accept this fact for a while, and they were all a little overwhelmed.
And the people of Gujiazhuang did not expect that the young owner of his own village was not only strong in martial arts, but also a monk, and he also mastered magical and powerful spells, which simply stunned everyone, including Gu Cheng's father Gu Qianchou.
"Kill the Rogues!" At this time, Gu Cheng took the lead in shouting.
The people of Gujiazhuang came to their senses, and under the leadership of Wang Jiaotou, many martial artists of the courtyard took the lead in killing, followed by six hundred militiamen.
Although there are many rogues, the dragons have no leader, and no one leads them, so they can't resist at all, so they choose their own ways to escape.
……
In the evening of the same day, Zhou Yuanyang, the protector of the county town, rushed to Gujiazhuang.
But when I arrived at Gujiazhuang, I found that except for the corpses of the rogues in one place, all the battles had ended, and there was nothing in Gujiazhuang, not even the wall of the manor was broken.
As soon as he asked, he found out that it was the young owner of Gujiazhuang who suddenly became powerful and used a spell to defeat Zhou Tianbao, the bandit leader of Huaishan Kou.
Hearing this, Zhou Yuanyang couldn't help but be surprised.
I clearly remember that this young owner of Gujiazhuang seems to have gone to their Yaoyang Sect to participate in the assessment last year, but because his qualifications were not good, he did not pass the assessment, so he came back again, and later I heard that Gu Qianchou spent a lot of money to buy a book of cultivation exercises for his son in order to meet his son's wishes. Also mastered spells?
Thinking about it like this, Zhou Yuanyang felt that things were a little unusual.
Those who can comprehend the exercises alone are all good cultivators, and those who can cultivate and master the spells in such a short period of time are the elites among them, such a character can definitely be called a genius of cultivation.
"Could it be that there was a mistake in the original assessment and inspection, otherwise, how could this be? With the qualifications shown by Gu Cheng, how could he not even pass the assessment? Zhou Yuanyang thought to himself in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, although there were few mistakes in the assessment, it was not nothing, and it would happen occasionally.
If you find a genius who has missed and report it to the sect, wouldn't it be a great achievement? This is much more than the credit for rescuing Gujiazhuang.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yuanyang's heart suddenly became hot, and he immediately visited the Gu family.
……
"Cheng'er, come over quickly, this is Zhou Yuanyang Immortal Master of the Yaoyang Sect, and he is also the Dharma Protector sent by the county to rescue us." In the hall of the Gu family, when he saw Gu Cheng walking in, Gu Qianchou immediately happily introduced him.
"Haha, I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, I didn't do anything this time, and it was all up to Little Brother Gu's divine power to kill those rogues." Zhou Yuanyang said politely while secretly looking at Gu Cheng.
He is an inner disciple of the Yaoyang Sect, and his cultivation has reached the realm of the condensation stage, otherwise he would not have gone out to practice as the protector of the county.
He clearly noticed with a sweep of his gaze that Gu Cheng's aura was long, which was obviously a sign that he had entered the path of cultivation, and Gu Cheng's five elements were balanced, and it was a little vague and bleak, so it could be judged that Gu Cheng's cultivation was not a fine exercise, but a very basic Five Elements Exercise.
These things made Zhou Yuanyang more sure of his guess in his heart.
However, Gu Cheng's cultivation made him a little frightened.
Five layers of Qi refining!
Originally, it was the fourth layer of qi refining, but the experience of killing Zhou Tianbao and those rogues made Gu Cheng rise to the next level.
Of course, these Zhou Yuanyang are not clear.
In his opinion, Gu Cheng had been promoted from an ordinary person to a fifth-level Qi refining realm cultivator in just one year. This speed may not be anything for a genius in the sect, but for a "lonely person" like Gu Cheng, it is a bit amazing, and Gu Cheng is still cultivating the lowest level of the Five Elements Basic Exercises, being able to have such a speed shows off his extraordinary talent and qualifications.
"Genius, absolutely genius."
"Among the disciples recruited by my Yaoyang Sect in recent years, I'm afraid there is no one who can compare with them."
"If there is a sect's guidance and careful cultivation, this Gu Cheng's cultivation speed will definitely be greatly improved."
"Such a genius, if I bring it into the sect, it will definitely be a great merit!"
Countless thoughts surged in his heart, and the smile on Zhou Yuanyang's face became even bigger, and his attitude towards Gu Cheng's father and son became more kind, not at all like a high-ranking cultivator.
The father and son of the Gu family glanced at each other, and they couldn't help but have some doubts.
Zhou Yuanyang also found that his attitude was a little inappropriate, coughed dryly, slightly suppressed the excitement in his heart, and asked in a calm tone, "I remember that Little Brother Gu had participated in the assessment of our Yaoyang Sect at the beginning, but I didn't expect that I hadn't seen him for a year, and he had already cultivated like this, it seems that Little Brother Gu worshipped a famous teacher, I wonder if you can introduce me to it?" ”
Hearing this, Gu Qianchou was still a little confused, but Gu Cheng could probably guess Zhou Yuanyang's thoughts.
A strange smile appeared on his face, and Gu Cheng opened his mouth to reply, "The Dharma Protector has misunderstood, I didn't worship any master, my father bought a copy of the Five Elements Qi Refining Technique for me, and I have been relying on this exercise to explore and cultivate for the past year. ”
"It's just that the cultivation effect of this exercise is not very good, if there was a master, I would have changed the cultivation method a long time ago."
"Five Elements Qi Refining Technique"?
Zhou Yuanyang thought about it for a while, and affirmed Gu Cheng's statement, the "Five Elements Qi Refining Technique" is indeed the most basic Five Elements Exercise, without any additional effect, except for those low-level casual cultivation, no sect disciple from a serious background will practice such exercises, if Gu Cheng has a master, he will definitely not practice such a basic exercise.
Of course, if it weren't for the fact that this kind of exercise was not very good, Gu Cheng's father would not have been able to buy it at the beginning.
Truly clever cultivation techniques are not something that money can buy, at least not ordinary money.
In this way, Zhou Yuanyang was almost 100% sure that his guess was correct, and he no longer concealed his purpose, so he said directly, "I see, that's really a pity, with the talent of Little Brother Gu, how can there be no famous teacher to teach?" It's better to do this, I will personally introduce you to you, so that Little Brother Gu can worship and practice under my Yaoyang Sect, in this way, you will not only obtain excellent cultivation techniques, but also get a lot of help from the sect, what do you think? ”
In Zhou Yuanyang's mind, he personally recruited him, coupled with the name of the Yaoyang Sect, how could a newcomer who cultivated the basic exercises and had nothing else refuse?
But Gu Cheng refreshed his concept.
"Yaoyang faction, I also went to participate in the assessment last year, but I was rejected."
"And according to what I learned later, there are three major upper sects and five lower sects in the Wei Kingdom, and the Yaoyang Sect seems to be only one of the five lower sects."
"I have already discussed with my father, and I am going to go to the three major sects of the Dongxuan Sect, the Demon Rock Sect, and the Jindan Sect in the near future, and maybe I will worship under their sects......"
The old god of Gu Cheng is always here.
Said to himself.
However, the more he spoke, the more ugly Zhou Yuanyang's face became, and in the end, Zhou Yuanyang's face no longer had the slightest smile.
