When Gu Chen and the others returned to Gu's house, it was already dark.

Gu Shisan walked to the living area of the children in the outer courtyard, while Gu Chen returned to the small courtyard where he lived alone in the inner courtyard.

However, not far from the small courtyard, Gu Chen found a rickety figure standing at the door, seemingly waiting for him.

"Steward Fu, is there something you have to do here?" Gu Chen said to the man.

Steward Fu is about fifty years old, and he is one of the housekeepers in the inner courtyard of the Gu Mansion, mainly responsible for the daily life of the elders.

"Young Master Chen is back, oh yes, the Great Elder instructed the villain to inform Young Master Chen to come over," Steward Fu said respectfully.

"Oh, then I'll go over by myself, go first, Steward Fu, you can do it yourself" After Gu Chen finished speaking, he walked towards the Great Elder's residence.

The Great Elder's name is Gu Cangling, and he was a cultivator when he was young, and he devoted himself to cultivation and never married a wife in his life.

More than ten years ago, he became the number one master of Qingyuan City with the strength of the third realm of the earth level, and in recent years, he has been in-depth and simple, and he has devoted himself to cultivation, hoping to break through the shackles of the earth level and reach the heavenly level.

He did not live in a small independent courtyard like the others, but built a bamboo house in a clearing in the middle of a bamboo forest in the inner courtyard, and no one was allowed to disturb him.

Gu Chen walked through a verdant bamboo forest to the door of the bamboo house.

He shouted inside: "Senior Gu Chen came to meet the Great Elder."

"Come in," a gentle voice came from inside the bamboo house.

After entering the door, Gu Chen took a quick look, and the room was simple and neat.

There were no frills, just a coffee table, two cushions, a wooden bed, a few simple cabinets, and two oil lamps.

At this time, the Grand Elder was sitting on a cushion beside the coffee table.

"Sit," the Grand Elder said, pointing to the cushion across from him.

Hearing this, Gu Chen sat opposite the Great Elder and secretly looked at the Great Elder.

I saw the Great Elder wearing a gray robe with white hair and a shawl. Although his face is a little old, his eyes are unusually clear, as if he can see through people's hearts.

In addition, there is no master's aura on his body.

The impression of the Great Elder in his heart was rather vague, after all, he hadn't seen him a few times since he was a child.

Usually, he only knows that he is the number one master in Qingyuan City, and he has also heard several old people in the clan talk about the glorious deeds of the great elder who fought all over Qingyuan City when he was young.

While Gu Chen was looking at the Great Elder, the other party was also looking at him.

So the two of them looked at each other motionlessly with wide eyes and didn't speak, and if outsiders saw it, they would definitely feel a little funny.

"You are Gu Chen, a very good little guy, you have the cultivation of the Soul Casting Realm at a young age, and you are much stronger than the old man back then," the Great Elder took the lead in breaking the calm and said with a smile.

"The Great Elder praised it falsely, the kid has heard since he was a child that the Great Elder has been through a hundred battles and has cultivated to a high level, and he is the number one master in our Qingyuan City, how can I compare with you," Gu Chen said shyly.

"You don't have to be humble, I heard that you have also practiced the Blue Shadow Streamer Body Method. I think my husband also practiced it back then, but this body martial art is very weird, and I have persisted for several years and tried many methods but I couldn't practice it.

After the old man failed in cultivation, he summarized the failure experience of himself and the seniors in the clan.

Then I found that it should require a certain special physique, or with the help of some special items as a guide to be able to practice, otherwise no matter how much cultivation can only be done useless.

And you have practiced without the help of any external force, which can only show that you are extremely talented, and your physique is very compatible with the Blue Shadow Streamer Body Method."

The Great Elder continued to speak.

"I see, I thought it was my luck that I succeeded in cultivating by mistake, but I didn't expect that there was still this body method and physical requirements," Gu Chen said with a sense of enlightenment.

He has always felt strange that he is cultivating according to the secret book, why is he succeeding in his cultivation, but no one else can.

"Didn't the ancestors of the Gu family find out about this problem, and what is the origin of this Blue Shadow Streamer Body Method?" Gu Chen asked curiously.

"Only me and Sihai know about this matter of the Gu family, and now that you have practiced, it is natural for you to know. ”

"More than one hundred and fifty years ago, the ancestor of my Gu family accidentally obtained the secret book of the Blue Shadow Streamer Body Method in a ruin, and after seeing it, he was like a treasure, and carefully collected it. ”

"Later, although no one practiced it, the ancestors never gave up, firmly believing that someone in my Gu family could eventually practice it, so he left the ancestors to train every generation of the direct children of the Gu family to practice this martial art. ”

"Until now, you have really practiced it. ”

"It's just, do you know what grade this martial art is?"

The Great Elder first briefly explained the origin, and then asked Gu Chen.

"I don't know, isn't this Blue Shadow Streamer Body Method without grade?" Gu Chen asked suspiciously.

"How can there be any grade of martial arts, that's just to hide people's eyes, all martial arts in the world can be graded, you can find that there is a page missing from the cheats when you cultivate," the Great Elder said with a smile.

"Are you talking about the cover of the cheats? wasn't that missing when you got it?" Gu Chen said uncertainly.

"Actually, it was torn off by the ancestor himself, because he was not the only one who was searching for treasures in the ruins at that time, so in order not to attract attention, he tore off the cover marked with the middle grade martial arts of the Heavenly Rank," the Great Elder explained.

"Heavenly Rank Middle-grade Martial Arts!, how is this possible" Gu Chen looked shocked and couldn't believe it.

Originally, the Gu family didn't even have a mid-grade martial art at the ground level, but this Blue Shadow Streamer Body Method was actually a mid-grade martial art at the heavenly level. This is a mastery that can only be possessed by the hegemon-level forces of a state, and it is said that the first sect in Yunzhou today, "Qingtian Sect", became famous by relying on a heaven-level middle-grade martial art called "Qingtian Palm".

"Originally, I wasn't sure, but this afternoon Sihai and your father Qianjiang came to see me. According to Qianjiang, you can actually support a stick of incense in his hand for a long time. The Blue Shadow Streamer Body Method has a total of nine layers, and you have only cultivated to the third layer, and you are on par with him in terms of speed, and even better in dexterity, which can only be done by a heaven-level martial art," the Great Elder said.

Gu Chen didn't know how amazing it was for him to be able to fight across two levels.

It's not a head-on confrontation, but think about it in a different direction. As long as you don't go head-to-head with the opponent, use speed to maneuver with it, and with a magic weapon, you can find the right opportunity and even achieve a two-level kill.

Think about what a horrible thing this is.

"You now know how precious the Biying Streamer Body Technique is, right? Body Martial Arts are already scarce, and with a good set of Body Martial Arts, you can advance, attack, retreat, and defend, and take the initiative. This Heavenly Rank Rank Body Technique is used well, and its value can even be compared to the Heaven Rank Upper Grade Martial Arts."

The Great Elder continued after seeing Gu Chen's expression of deep thought and then sudden realization.

Gu Chen nodded vigorously, he was a little excited and a little nervous.

What was exciting was that he had unknowingly practiced such a divine skill.

What is nervous is that if outsiders know that the Gu family has heaven-level martial arts, then with the strength of the Gu family, it will definitely be impossible to resist, I am afraid that even the overlord of Yunzhou "Qingtian Sect" will come to snatch it.

"You have to remember not to reveal this matter, and in the future, don't use it lightly unless you have to," the Great Elder said solemnly.

"Yes, Gu Chen remembered the teachings of the Great Elder," Gu Chen said cautiously.

"Well, I already asked Sihai to go and warn the people who have cultivated your Blue Shadow Streamer Body Method, and you can come to me if you cultivate the Body Method in the future, and you can also ask me if you have any problems in your cultivation. ”

"Little guy, I have a hunch that the Gu family will carry forward in your lifetime, don't let me down. The Great Elder said with a smile.

He is very satisfied with Gu Chen, a child with high qualifications, a good heart, and not arrogant or impatient. Therefore, he deliberately instructed him in his cultivation.

The clan said that the Great Elder didn't care about the world, but in fact, he saw it more clearly than anyone else in his heart.

The Gu family has been silent for too long, and they have been nested in this small place of Qingyuan City for a hundred years, after all, it is because the family has not been able to give birth to a true genius and excellent leader.

And now that Gu Sihai has taken care of the family in an orderly manner, the hearts of the people in the family are cohesive, Gu Chen, a young man who has practiced the Blue Shadow Streamer Body Method, is enough to be called a genius, it is time for the Gu family to rise...

"Thank you, Great Elder, I will definitely not let you down," Gu Chen said happily.

The Great Elder is going to open a small stove for him. Although he has an excellent talent in cultivation and rarely encounters difficulties, he has such a master who is willing to teach him, and he will not have to worry about problems in the future.

"You have a spiritual weapon on your back," said the Great Elder at this time, looking at the Flowing Firefly Sword behind Gu Chen's back.

"Yes, this is the inferior spiritual weapon 'Flowing Firefly Sword' that I bought at the Tenglong Chamber of Commerce in the afternoon, it is said to be an imitation of the top-grade spiritual weapon 'Star Shadow Sword', please take a look at it from the Great Elder. Gu Chen nodded and said, then untied the Liuying Sword and handed it to the Great Elder.

The Great Elder took out the Flowing Firefly Sword, looked at it carefully, and then handed it back to Gu Chen.

Then he said: "This sword is made of cold iron mixed with silver and the bones of demon beasts, and a very small amount of Mithril is also used, which has the effect of increasing the power of the element, and can increase the power of some swordsmanship and martial arts. This sword has a large amount of silver, which is not as good as Mithril, but it can also channel Yuan Li well. However, the silver is soft, although it is matched with cold iron, it doesn't matter if it is fought with mortal weapons, but if you encounter other spirit-level weapons, it is best not to fight hard with the blade, otherwise it may be damaged. ”

"Ahh

The sales lady hadn't told her about this, otherwise she would have been hesitant to buy it.

"This is just a low-grade spiritual weapon, and it is inevitable that there will be some neglect of one or the other. This sword focuses on improving the power of sword skills, rather than hand-to-hand combat, if you can take care of both, at least it is a medium-grade spiritual weapon. ”

"So it's not a loss to buy one hundred and twenty spirit stones, as long as you pay attention. And I'm afraid there are very few people in the entire Qingyuan City who can use spiritual weapons at the human level," the Great Elder shook his head and smiled after looking at Gu Chen's expression of great loss.

"I see" Gu Chen smiled awkwardly after hearing this, it turned out that he was too greedy.

"Okay, it's late at night, you go back, come back when you have time," the Great Elder said to Gu Chen.

"That kid will retire first, and he will come back to bother him in the future" Gu Chen bowed to the Great Elder and left.

After returning to the courtyard, Gu Chen lay on the bed and his thoughts flew wildly.

Suddenly it occurred to me that less than a month would be the triennial competition between the Gu family and the Huang family.

Since thirty years ago, the Gu family and the Huang family have been deciding the dominance of Qingyuan City by the outcome of the battle, and so far the Gu family has won nine consecutive victories.

However, the strength of the Huang family has continued to increase since they took the line of the Shi family in Black Rock City, and now they also have the strength to compete with the Gu family.

Although throwing is not as good as the Gu family, the competition is changing rapidly, and the victory or defeat is not yet to be said.

In the past, there were five competitions, one between elder-level figures, two between the second generation of the two sides, and two between the third generation.

At that time, he should be facing Huang Xiu, originally with Biying Streamer as his hole card, Gu Chen is confident that he will never lose.

However, the Blue Shadow Streamer Body Method is very important, and it must not be revealed in this situation, so there is no certainty of victory, and it seems that we will have to work harder from tomorrow.

Now that he has the Liuying Sword, of course, he wants to major in swordsmanship, but in addition to the basic swordsmanship, Gu Chen only mastered the human-level high-grade sword technique "Wind One Sword".

It seems that I will have to go to the Library Pavilion tomorrow to see if I can find another advanced sword skill to practice.
