Chapter 557: Retreat

In the following days, Gu Hengsheng lived in the mansion of the former Guogong.

The mansion of the former prince of the country is splendid and magnificent, the maids and maids in the mansion are all beautiful women, and the guards are all good at cultivation, these people are carefully selected by Emperor Luo Hongsheng, specifically to serve Gu Hengsheng's daily life.

Gu Hengsheng is now a former prince of the country, and almost every day, officials and families come to visit with heavy gifts, but all of them were sent away by Gu Hengsheng.

Gu Hengsheng was too lazy to deal with these courtier families, so he simply disappeared and ended up clean.

Every day, Gu Hengsheng would sit cross-legged on the bed and practice breathing, absorbing the dense aura between heaven and earth. It's just that no matter how Gu Hengsheng absorbs the aura, he always feels that he is a line away from the Heavenly Xuan Realm, and he can't step over it for the time being.

"I'm afraid I can only wait for the results of the spiritual vein mining."

Gu Hengsheng only hoped that everything would go well in the spiritual vein mining, so that he could use a large number of spirit stones to cultivate, improve his cultivation, and let himself grow as soon as possible.

Peaceful days passed quickly, and nearly two months passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past two months, the name of Gu Hengsheng, the former prince of the country, has completely spread to every corner of the Qiansu Dynasty and has become a legend of the dynasty.

Many officials and forces who wanted to tie up with Gu Hengsheng gradually lost their patience because of Gu Hengsheng's indifferent treatment. Therefore, at the gate of the former Guogong's mansion, few people came to worship with gifts.

Sometimes, Gu Hengsheng would stay in the mansion for several days to practice. Sometimes, Gu Hengsheng went out to Luoqing's residence and drank a few glasses of wine with Luoqing.

Today, Gu Hengsheng was taking a walk in the Guogong Mansion, and suddenly a eunuch came from the palace.

"See Kokuko-sama." Although the eunuch came by the emperor's dictation, he didn't dare to be disrespectful to Gu Hengsheng, and bent down with a smile and shouted.

"What's the matter?" Gu Hengsheng said bluntly.

"Back to the Duke of the Kingdom, please enter the palace to see you."

The eunuch did not hesitate for a moment, and hurriedly said the emperor's dictation.

"Oh?" Gu Hengsheng raised his eyebrows, and a flash of excitement flashed in the depths of his eyes.

It seems that there is finally news about the things in the Thirteen Cities of Eastern Xinjiang. Two full months have passed, Gu Hengsheng is living a calm life on the surface, but he is anxious in his heart.

There is no way to break through to the Heavenly Xuan Realm for a long time, and if Gu Hengsheng encounters a strong enemy outside, he may not even have the strength to protect himself. Moreover, there are still many things waiting for Gu Hengsheng to do, and he can't waste time.

Immediately, Gu Hengsheng set off to follow the eunuch who passed the message and came to the palace.

Gu Hengsheng stepped into the imperial study with ease, walked straight to the body of Emperor Luo Hongsheng, and bowed his hand: "Your Majesty." ”

"You're here." Luo Hongsheng's face was happy.

"Your Majesty, is there news from Dongjiang?" Gu Hengsheng asked straight to the point.

"Well, there's news coming back, and the first batch has been shipped back." Luo Hongsheng didn't hide it from Gu Hengsheng, and used Xuan Qi to block the space around him, and after ensuring safety, he said: "It's just that after mining for such a period of time, five thousand catties of spirit stones have been transported back. ”

"Five thousand catties of lower grade spirit stones can be regarded as very good." A ray of joy flashed between Gu Hengsheng's eyebrows.

Five thousand catties of spirit stones, according to the original agreement, Gu Hengsheng could take one-tenth, that is, five hundred catties of spirit stones. Gu Hengsheng believed that with these five hundred catties of spirit stones, he would definitely be able to absorb the spiritual energy contained in them and break through to the Heavenly Xuan Realm in one fell swoop.

"Guogong, Gu has already arranged your part, there are enough thousand catties of spirit stones, and it is placed in the retreat on the west side of the palace, which will definitely not attract any attention."

Of course, Luo Hongsheng would not pit Gu Hengsheng, and chuckled.

"A thousand pounds?" Gu Hengsheng was stunned: "Your Majesty, isn't it one-tenth?" How did it become a thousand pounds? ”

"You are now the former prince of my dynasty, and it is the top priority to let your cultivation succeed as soon as possible. The original tenth is changed to a fifth, and if you still need it, do not hesitate to speak. ”

Although Luo Hongsheng cares about spirit stones very much, he knows the value of a world-famous person even more.

Gu Hengsheng didn't expect Luo Hongsheng to be so generous, which surprised him a little, but he really had no way to refuse, so he had to hug his fists and gratefully: "Thank you." ”

"Guogong is polite, we are all a family, and it would be too obvious to say these words."

Luo Hongsheng waved his hand, in a good mood.

"Okay, then you're welcome." Gu Hengsheng didn't bother to say these polite words, but secretly remembered this sentiment in his heart.

"Let's go! Lone will take you to the stone house of retreat in the Dark Temple. ”

Luo Hongsheng stood up from the dragon chair and planned to take Gu Hengsheng to the retreat stone room prepared for him.

So, Gu Hengsheng followed Luo Hongsheng to the hidden stone room.

As soon as he stepped into the stone room, Gu Hengsheng felt an incomparably abundant aura sweeping over, making him instantly feel happy and happy, and the whole person was a little fluttery.

Thousands of catties of spirit stones were piled up in the corner of the stone room, and the white jade-colored light shone brightly, making Gu Hengsheng can't help but squint his eyes, and his heart is surging.

Looking at the spirit stones covering the entire corner in front of him, Gu Hengsheng seemed to have seen the threshold of the Heavenly Xuan Realm, and he couldn't wait to sit on the ground and start cultivating.

"Guogong, Lone will not bother you, when you are in retreat, Lone will send someone to guard the surroundings, and no one will disturb you."

Luo Hongsheng knew that Gu Hengsheng must be impatient now, so he didn't talk nonsense, turned around and left.

"Thank you, Your Excellency." Gu Hengsheng didn't have half a bit of politeness, and raised his hand slightly to salute.

After Luo Hongsheng left the stone room, the quaint and heavy stone door slowly closed. If it weren't for a night pearl in the stone chamber that illuminated the entire stone chamber, I'm afraid the whole room would have been plunged into darkness.

"I've been waiting for two months, and it's finally here."

Gu Hengchang took a breath, stepped lightly next to the spirit stone, and immediately sat on the ground, slowly closing his eyes.

The next moment, Gu Hengsheng sealed his hands and began to operate the exercises of cultivation, preparing to break through to the Heavenly Xuan Realm in the stone room in one go.

Thousands of catties of low-grade spirit stones were enough for Gu Hengsheng to break through the threshold of the Heavenly Xuan Realm.

As Gu Hengsheng's Xuan Qi gushed out, the spirit stones in the corner of the stone room flew one after another, hovering around Gu Hengsheng's body.

Wisps of relatively pure spiritual energy diffused from the spirit stone, and then they were absorbed by Gu Hengsheng into the meridian dantian.

As time passed, Gu Hengsheng's aura became more and more fierce and majestic, and the spirit stones gathered around him became more and more numerous, and the rich aura filled every corner of the stone room.

"Tianxuan Realm is only the first step in the battle of the great world, I must take it over as soon as possible."
