Chapter 101: Ten Thousand Empty Silences

In Suxue Garden, the pale starlight is scattered on the ground through the window lattice, like crystal snow.

Gu Xu stood in the darkness with a calm gaze.

Dust particles floated around him, reflecting the starlight, like fireflies flying on a summer night.

words, the voice of the heart;

Books, heart paintings, too.

The moment he held the "Amazing Pen", he had already understood the essentials of using this famous instrument.

He knew that the people of the Lu clan in Qingzhou often did not practice martial arts, but purely sought the true meaning of the Great Dao in poetry and painting.

Their behavior is not a vassal manner.

Rather, they feel that poetry and painting are the carriers of expressing their hearts and the means of interrogating their hearts.

To know is to know.

Things are born from the heart, and the Tao is also born from the heart.

Gu Xu also understands that now is the most powerful moment in his life.

The famous Great Wilderness Weapon has become his magic weapon.

Fourth Realm Monk Chu Fengge lent him the True Yuan to use.

The remnants of the resentful spirits of the entire mansion are willing to obey his command.

Lu Shiyao's remnant soul also stood behind him and became his strong backing.

He can treat the entire Lu Mansion as his own picture scroll and splash ink to his heart's content.

So, Gu Xu put down his pen gently.

Wandering and pitching, tolerant and merry, just iron painting, charming like a silver hook.

His gesture is like the wind and thunder, and the pen has not been swallowed.

…………

At the same time that Gu Xu put down his pen, Tang Hui had already used Zhenyuan to heal his injuries, and once again lifted the "Golden Jiao Gun" and stabbed towards Gu Xu.

Although the expression on his face was crazy and hideous, he also called the other party "ant" in a mocking tone.

But he knew in his heart that Gu Xu seemed to have a low realm, but he was actually not easy to deal with.

This young man who looks thin has not only become the new owner of "Shocking Brush", but also the remnant soul of Lu Shiyao to escort him.

Tang Hui knew that he could no longer retain his strength.

If he wants to leave this dark mansion of the Lu family, he must wipe out this young man who has successfully possessed the "Shocking Pen" here.

The marksmanship he used at this time was called "Jiangqi Dragon Xing".

This is a high-grade martial art passed down from generation to generation by the royal family of Daqi, and it was never taught to people with foreign surnames.

However, Tang Hui was recognized by the emperor because he speculated about the emperor's intentions and helped the emperor charge the Qingzhou Lu family for rebellion.

So the emperor made an exception and allowed him to learn this martial art.

As we all know, the biggest difference between high-grade martial arts and middle-grade martial arts is that they often contain the founder's understanding of the true meaning of the Great Dao.

And the way of the "Qiang Qi Dragon Xing" marksmanship lies in the majesty of intimidating sentient beings, and in the domineering of "those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me die".

At the moment when he fired his gun, countless phantoms of golden dragons suddenly appeared in the room.

They soar and roar among the auspicious clouds.

The dragon's roar contained an extremely strong coercion, which made people involuntarily have the urge to prostrate and worship.

Under the majestic gunfire, the screen of "Su Xuezhai" suddenly collapsed, the old books on the shelves fell to the ground with a clatter, and the carved window lattices also cracked, revealing the misty pond outside the window.

Chu Fengge staggered and fell to the ground.

His true yuan had just been drained by Gu Xu.

In the face of a Fifth Realm cultivator's blow, the surging gun intent alone made his legs limp, and it was difficult to resist.

He raised his head and looked at Gu Xu not far away.

Now Tang Hui has used a real killer move.

What kind of means does Gu Xu have to break this thunderous move?

…………

Gu Xu didn't think about how to break Tang Hui's moves.

He just stood quietly in place, with the help of the "Amazing Pen", to embody the poems in his mind.

A slender brush, a thin teenager.

Under the majestic gun, it looks extremely fragile.

But Gu Xu still looked at him calmly.

In an instant, a pale and plain picture emerged from the tip of his pen - from the three-foot land in front of him, extending to the entire Suxuezhai, extending to the entire Lu Mansion, connecting the heaven and the earth, high and far mountains, down and the pond, a width of ten thousand miles.

Perched birds do not fly, pedestrians are extinct.

It's utter emptiness.

This is absolute nothingness.

Even the golden dragon, when it touched this picture of steepness and extreme cold, gradually faded and disappeared.

The surging momentum is all dissolved invisibly.

White, deserted.

Just like the vanished Lu Mansion.

Just like the past that has been forgotten by the world.

…………

"Thousands of mountains and birds fly away, and thousands of people disappear."

Gu Xu calmly looked at Tang Hui in front of him, and said expressionlessly: "This is the first spell I have comprehended after I have the 'Amazing Pen 'Amazing Brush'. You were lucky enough to be my first test subject. ”

Tang Hui did not immediately answer his words.

He lowered his head and looked at the "Golden Jiao Gun" in his hand.

The light of this spear, which was as sharp as clay, gradually dimmed at this moment, and even mottled rust appeared.

Seeing this scene, Tang Hui knew that this magic weapon of his had been erased from all extraordinary attributes and turned into an ordinary mortal weapon, even as sharp as the pig killing knives in the hands of the butchers.

Tang Hui sighed, his expression was a little less crazy and more lonely.

"Cracking ten thousand laws with nothingness, it turns out that this is the Taoist technique that Childe comprehended!" Tang Hui sighed, "Compared with the technique of 'snow melting everything' mastered by Miss Lu Shiyao back then, it is the opposite, and it complements each other.

"Childe's talent is really extraordinary. If it weren't for the fact that you knew too many things that you shouldn't know, maybe we would have become Taoist friends who went hand in hand. ”

"Heh, fellow Daoist," Gu Xu smiled coldly and responded in a sarcastic tone, "I don't want me to become the next Lu Huan." ”

It can be seen that Tang Hui's natal object is now damaged, and his cultivation has also fallen a lot-he wants to delay time and restore his true yuan by chatting with Gu Xu.

But Gu Xu didn't want to chat with him.

Because most of the power in his body is borrowed now, and it can only last for a short time.

He had to be quick.

Thinking of this, he waved the "Shocking Pen" again, letting the pale and empty picture spread to Tang Hui's body.

This time, he wanted to completely erase Tang Hui's cultivation and turn him into a mortal who could be slaughtered.

…………

After Gu Xu and Lu Shiyao obtained the "Amazing Pen", they both had an epiphany about new spells because of the snow.

But the snow they write about is fundamentally different.

Lu Shiyao's snow is the snow that "wears the garden trees as flying flowers", it is the smart snow, it is the fresh snow, and it represents creation.

Gu Xu's snow is slaughter, nothingness, emptiness, and the disappearance of all things.

This is the power of the famous "Amazing Pen".

Even if it is the same image, different ways can be born.

And Tang Hui also had lingering feelings about Gu Xu's move.

He immediately took out the "Qincha Token" and stood in front of him.

For fifteen years, this "Qincha token" has been the lifeblood of Tang Hui - it symbolizes the emperor's favor and trust in him.

The emperor was the strongest of the Great Qi Dynasty.

The "Tai'a Sword" engraved with tokens is the strongest weapon in the Great Wilderness.

He believed that as long as this token was in his hand, the emperor would always watch him from afar, sheltering him, and no one would be able to hurt him.
