Chapter 31: A Wonderful Performance
Machin couldn't help but recall the scene a few minutes ago-
Gu Xu and the restaurant owner talked happily, like a pair of happy grandchildren.
Then Gu Xu took the wine jug from the boss's hand and planned to pour himself a glass of wine.
His hand shook "inadvertently".
Drinks spilled and trickled down the table to the floor.
Using the power of the True Element to move objects empty-handed, limited to objects with a small volume and mass, is an entry-level operation that every monk can do.
In other words, for Gu Xu, it is not a difficult thing to control the flow direction of the liquid with the true element.
Just now, Gu Xu seemed to be sitting in a chair in a daze, indifferent to the miserable situation of Ma Qin being besieged......
But in fact, he used the ground as paper and cinnamon wine as ink, turning the entire restaurant into a "Taishang Arctic Town Demon Killing Talisman".
This is what Gu Xu called the "stage".
This is Gu Xu's long-planned killer move.
Thinking of this, Ma Qin had mixed feelings in his heart.
He had been amazed by Gu Xu's terrifying cultivation speed, and jealous of his supreme talent that shocked the entire Exorcism Division.
But in the final analysis, these are God's rewards.
Ma Qin once felt that if he had the same talent, he would not necessarily be much inferior to Gu Xu.
But now, Ma Qin realizes that Gu Xu's greatest strength lies not in his outstanding talent - but in his ability to maintain absolute calm, no matter how critical the situation, with amazing talent and unconventional thinking, to find unexpected ways to win.
Is this man really only seventeen years old?
The more Ma Qin thought about it, the more incredible he felt.
As Gu Xu chanted the "Exorcism Mantra", the temperature in the room gradually increased, and the light seeping from the ground became brighter and brighter.
The goblins present clearly felt the threat of death as well.
They left Ma Qin, whose face was covered with egg whites, behind them, let out a low roar, waving all kinds of kitchen utensils, and rushed towards Gu Xu like a tide.
But Gu Xu was unmoved, and continued to chant the incantation while dodging carefully.
Since the battle with the painted skin ghosts last month, Gu Xu has been deeply aware that when dealing with those rough-skinned ghosts, the power of the improved version of the "ghost killing talisman" is still somewhat insufficient.
So, in the recent period, while he has been cultivating hard, he has also been trying to develop a more lethal third-generation "ghost killing talisman".
Although it is currently only a half-finished product, it still has a number of flaws......
But it is obviously enough to deal with these ghosts.
After all, he had injected ninety percent of his true essence into this "Ghost Killing Talisman" drawn by Guijiu - the terrifying damage that erupted in this instant was absolutely impossible for the ghosts present to resist.
“…… Five days of the devil, dead and extinct. Wherever it is, all gods are welcome. Haste as a law! ”
After the incantation was recited, the entire restaurant was lit with golden flames.
It is as if the east wind blooms at night.
They are as brilliant as a starfall, and they are as noisy as fire.
The goblins' bodies quickly twisted and melted in the bright light, like a pile of paper figures thrown into the furnace, with a bitter wail, turning into ashes on the ground.
Gu Xu stood quietly in the most dazzling place of the firelight, his face was extremely pale due to the large loss of true yuan, but his gaze was as indifferent as ever, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, as if he was intoxicated by this colorful and gorgeous scenery.
"It's beautiful." He sighed softly.
Then he turned his head, raised his eyebrows, and looked at Ma Qin beside him with a smile: "Brother Ma, what do you think of today's performance?" ”
Ma Qin took a deep breath and exclaimed sincerely: "It's wonderful. ”
"That's art." Gu Xu was obviously very satisfied with the effect of this improved ghost killing talisman.
Although Ma Qin had long understood that Gu Xu was not an ordinary First Realm cultivator.
But the terrifying energy that erupted in the "fireworks" just now still made Ma Qin feel extremely shocked, and even made him faintly feel a hint of threat in the second realm.
"If this 'Ghost Slaying Talisman' can act not only on ghosts, but also on the Terrans, then will my 'Rock Fist' be able to withstand this terrifying attack?"
Machin is unknown.
He planned that after leaving the illusion world, he would go to the Yishui Exorcism Treasury to exchange for a few "ghost killing talismans".
This thing is only fifteen meritorious deeds.
With such a high cost performance, it is hard to find.
…………
Yishui County, the lobby of the Yamen of the Exorcism Division.
Chu Fengge sat on the Taishi chair with Erlang's legs crossed, staring intently at the image on the body of the "Wen Gu Pot", and couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw Gu Xu's figure standing in the dazzling firelight.
An ordinary low-realm monk like Ma Qin may not be able to understand why Gu Xu was able to create such a terrifying "Ghost Killing Talisman".
However, Chu Fengge, who boasted of being a genius in the sky, could see at a glance that Gu Xu's true yuan was more condensed and purified than the vast majority of First Realm cultivators.
As we all know, the true essence of the Great Wilderness Cultivators is all refined from Yin Qi.
In this process, it is difficult to obtain 100% purification of yin and evil qi - even if you use a higher-grade exercise, there will be more or less impurities remaining.
And these impurities with cold attributes will largely become the shackles of the monks' future strength, and even hidden dangers.
It will also bring great risks to the monk's breakthrough process.
Chu Fengge was relatively lucky.
He grew up under the personal teaching of Luo Chuan, the head of the exorcism department, and practiced Luo Chuan's self-created high-grade exercise "Lie Xing Jue".
The reason why the top-grade exercises are precious is that it contains the perception of the top powerhouses on the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth; And in terms of purifying the true element, it is also more efficient than ordinary exercises.
One of the advantages of the Secret of the Stars is that it can use the light of the stars to help the monks cleanse the remaining yin and evil qi in the meridians after nightfall.
Therefore, Chu Fengge, who cultivated the "Stars Technique", was much more refined than ordinary monks—this made him only a fourth realm consummation, but he could wrestle his wrist with a monk who had just entered the fifth realm.
Although Chu Fengge didn't want to admit it......
But he could clearly perceive that Gu Xu's true yuan condensation level was no less than that of himself who cultivated the "Stars Technique".
"Xu San, do you know what kind of exercises this Gu Xu is cultivating?" Thinking of this, Chu Fengge turned his head and asked Xu San, the entourage beside him.
"Tell my lord, according to the records in the archives of the Yishui Exorcism Division, Gu Xu is cultivating the 'Returning to the Yuan Jue'." Xu San replied respectfully.
"Return to the Origin"?
Almost every monk of Daqi has a copy of the rotten street exercises?
A book that is only worth 500 merits, mediocre and has no special effects?
How is this possible?
"Xu San, you should know that fooling this official is going to lose your head." Chu Fengge said coldly.
"The subordinates don't dare," Xu San immediately lowered his head and replied tremblingly, "but...... But that's really what Gu Xu's file says. ”
Chu Fengge snorted, only feeling that it was outrageous.
Inadvertently, he glanced at Gu Xu, who was sitting in the corner with his eyes closed, and he was a little more vigilant about this kid in his heart.
