Chapter 13: The Tribulation

Gu Shengchao was originally only in the early stage of the Yuan Shen Realm, and after the dantian was damaged and repaired by Lu Chuan, he started again from the Qi Cultivation Realm, and only then did he reach the middle stage of the Foundation Building Realm. At this moment, the true qi was flowing endlessly in the meridians of the whole body, directly crossing the Yuan Shen Realm and reaching the Nirvana Realm. The various parts of his body were stretched and deformed under the action of True Qi, and the body structure was reorganized, becoming soft but tougher, and the meridians were unusually smooth.

Suddenly, dark clouds rolled up in the sky above Dream Villa, colliding and tumbling, roaring and making a thunderous sound, and nothing could be seen in the darkness of the sky and the earth. Lightning struck down, and the heavens and the earth instantly brightened up, and in the blink of an eye, they fell into darkness again.

Gu Shengchao unknowingly came to the Tribulation Realm.

Cultivating to the realm of tribulation is to go against the sky, and it is rare for ordinary people to practice to this realm, and those who succeed are also one in a million, and most of them are either seriously injured or killed. Many cultivators have been unable to move forward when they have reached the Nirvana realm, lest they fall short when they reach the Tribulation Realm. Only a stunned young man like Gu Shengchao is fearless because of ignorance and goes on regardless of the consequences.

Meng Peilong, the owner of Mengyou Mountain Villa, didn't think so at first, it was an ordinary thunderstorm, he observed it for a long time, and suddenly noticed the strangeness in it, and a trace of uneasiness rose inexplicably in his heart, and he hurriedly summoned everyone to rush to the cell where Gu Shengchao was.

Inside the cell.

Seeing that Gu Shengchao didn't wail and beg for mercy, the guy with a sideways face actually laughed, he was even more indignant, raised his hoe and smashed it at Gu Shengchao's head viciously. The hoe was still an inch away from Gu Shengchao's head, and suddenly stopped, as if it was tightly grasped by an invisible big hand, and it couldn't go down for half a minute. He pulled back, but the hoe still didn't move. He was in shock, but when he saw Gu Shengchao let out a long howl, his arms waved and kicked out with two feet, and the thick chain was actually broken.

The hoe flew upside down, and the man snorted, and the hoe struck through his chest, leading him back and nailing him firmly to the wall of the dungeon.

Gu Shengchao opened his eyes, his eyes seemed to be about to erupt with fire, he had to repay the inhuman torture he had suffered these days.

The Raid has succeeded!

Peace was restored between heaven and earth.

He rushed out of the dungeon, and more than a dozen people ran to the road with swords in hand, probably hearing the movement and rushing to support. Gu Shengchao waved his fist and pushed it flat, and in an instant, he left a corpse behind. He was like a mad beast, roaring and biting at every prey that dared to stand in his way.

The owner of the village, Meng Peilong, led his son Meng Liyan and his master Meng Song and others to rush over, and they were all startled when they saw Gu Shengchao's appearance as if he was demonized. Meng Peilong pulled his son back and pushed Meng Song forward to command: "This person is crazy and there is nothing to be afraid of, let's go up and kill him together." ”

Meng Song was a little scared, he looked left and right and found that there were many people, so he was relieved. He shouted "Let's go together" and rushed over first.

The enemy was very red when he saw him, and Gu Shengchao met it with his bare hands, and the murderous aura enveloped the heavens and the earth. Meng Song was about to come to Gu Shengchao's body, first released a few hidden arrows, and then slashed at the top of Gu Shengchao's head with a big knife. The Hidden Arrow shot out, and the Ancient Saint dodged and grabbed it with the big knife. Meng Song was overjoyed, and he flipped the blade in an attempt to cut off Gu Shengchao's fingers. Gu Shengchao's left fist struck the back of the knife, and the big knife vibrated and beeped. Meng Song couldn't hold the big knife and suddenly took it out, he was stunned, Gu Shengchao's right fist had already come to the front door. As soon as his eyes were dark, his head had already been smashed flat by Gu Shengchao's fist, and he fell to the ground and died.

Meng Peilong shouted: "No one is allowed to retreat, those who violate the order will be killed, kill this madman, and each person will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold." ”

Everyone saw that the master fell to the ground and was about to flee, but when they heard the order of the owner, they had to besiege the past with a lot of people. How could Gu Shengchao be like a lion, unstoppable, no one could help him. Meng Peilong saw that the opportunity was not good, so he pulled his son and ran to the backyard.

Gu Shengchao saw that there were too many people around him who needed to be solved and couldn't be killed for a while. The "Five Soul Array" in his dantian continued to urge, and he just silently thought in his heart, if only the sword could fly out, as far as his mind went, the "Five Soul Array" flew out of his body with the sword in it, and it became more than five feet long from the size of an embroidery needle, and intercepted and killed Meng Peilong and his son. Meng Peilong was terrified, and he and Meng Liyan drew their swords to defend back-to-back.

The six swords came and went like flying, and Meng Peilong's father and son were dazzled and couldn't keep an eye on them at all. Without a few faces, Meng Liyan's head was cut off and flew up. Seeing this, Meng Peilong's mind was confused, and he was killed instantly with a sword piercing his chest. The people besieging the ancient saint were panicked and wanted to flee one after another. The "Five Soul Array" hung in the air, where could the flying sword escape, and in the blink of an eye, only the severed arms and stumps were left on the ground, and they were completely dead, and they could no longer make any sound.

Gu Shengchao took the "Five Soul Array" back to the dantian, he was like a dream, and what had just happened made him unbelievable. Lu Chuan had warned him about the importance of the formation that day, but he didn't think so, and today the "Five Souls Array" showed his skills, and he really understood the meaning of Lu Chuan's words.

There were corpses all over the place, so that Gu Sheng's super hot heart slowly calmed down, he was a little afraid, he took off his clothes from a few people and put them on, regardless of the blood stains on them, first covered his body and then said, there were scattered pieces of silver rolled out of him and packed them together, and strode outside. Passing by a courtyard with a tempting aroma wafting from it, a man and a woman walked out with baskets. They were all startled when they saw Gu Shengchao covered in blood, and the woman even let go of the basket, and the basket rolled down with a few bulging buns.

Gu Shengchao hadn't eaten well for many days, and when he saw the buns, he pounced on them and grabbed them and stuffed them in his mouth.

The man and the woman seemed to be husband and wife, and the man escorted the woman to the corner, grabbing a pickaxe used for farm work and turning the soil in front of him.

Gu Shengchao gobbled up everything else, and he only tasted that many of them were meat buns.

The man clenched his pickaxe and said in fear: "Don't come here, I'll call someone if you come over, this Dream Mountain Villa is full of masters." ”

Gu Shengchao smiled: "Don't be afraid, the owner of the village here has been killed by me, and I don't know how many people are left, I only ask you for something." ”

"What, what?" The man was frightened and began to speak uncomfortably.

Gu Shengchao pointed to himself, "I just need to have clean clothes." ”

The two looked at each other for a moment, and the woman said, "The heroes are merciful, I'll go and find them." She ran out for a while, and really brought two clean clothes, she put the clothes in front of Gu Shengchao and said: "A good man forgives his sins, there are only two men left in my family, and I really can't find any superfluous." ”

Gu Shengchao grabbed his clothes and settled them and said, "There are too many dead people here, you two better leave as soon as possible so as not to cause trouble." Seeing the man nodding, he asked, "In which direction is the nearest town to go?" ”

The man pointed to the west and said, "Over the two mountains is Baishan Town, the town is built by the water and there is a wharf, but the mountain is high and the road is dangerous." ”

"Thank you!" Gu Shengchao hugged his fists in thanks, he wrapped some buns in his clean robe and ran away with his legs.

He ran in a hurry, and unconsciously felt that something was wrong, and when he looked down, he was suddenly startled, how did he run to the top of the tree. He was a little deflated by the fright, and immediately fell from the tree, almost falling into the mud. He soothed his breath and slowly calmed down, only then did he realize that he had changed drastically and that it would take time to get used to it.

At sunset, Gu Shengchao had already come to Baishan Town, and he saw the river at sunset from a distance, with pink sparkling water waves. He is now strong in internal strength, and these mountain roads are like walking on the ground, which is not difficult for him at all. When he reached the river, it was dusk, and he found a no-man's place on the bank, took off his clothes, jumped down, took a comfortable bath, wiped off the thick dirt on his body, and put on his robe and walked to the town.

Gu Shengchao walked unhurriedly to the center of Baishan Town, when the lights were first released, all kinds of restaurants were full, and it was so lively. Gu Shengchao went straight along the street, and came to the river after a short time, the painting boat in the river was brightly lit, and the dignitaries enjoyed the singer performance while admiring the moon, leisurely and leisurely.

Continuing along the riverbank, a huge ship was about to set sail, and the men on board pulled up the sails and slowly left the riverbank.

Gu Shengchao was involved in many murders, although he didn't do it intentionally, after all, he killed someone, and he was afraid that the government would investigate it. The big ships are usually long-distance voyages, which is just right for his desire to take refuge. He jumped up at the right moment and disappeared into the cabin.

A guy was in a trance and asked the guy next to him: "I seem to have seen a big civet cat running up just now, do you need to check it?" ”

The man laughed: "I think you want to be lazy again, which tanuki can come up on such a high side of the ship?" Hurry up and get to work, don't think about uselessness. ”

There is a gangway in the cabin, Gu Shengchao walked down the ladder, and the cabin is divided into three layers: upper, middle and lower. The upper floor is richly decorated, and there are maids waiting outside each single room, which is obviously some official eunuchs; The middle floor is slightly worse, but it is also solemn and elegant, the tables and chairs are neatly arranged, people drink tea and whisper in a low voice, seeing that they are dressed up in a large number of well-off, either rich or expensive; When you go down to the ground floor, there is no decoration, not even the most ordinary tables, chairs and benches, and people in simple clothes sit on the floor and are silent.

Gu Shengchao was dressed as a countryman, so he found a random place and sat down. Next to him was a young man, about seven or eight years old, who was lively and active, constantly running through the crowd, full of curiosity about everything around him. The boy was accompanied by his father, whose face was already wrinkled and silent before he had even grown old.

The boy ran for a while, hungry, and begged his father for food, but the boy's father said that he didn't have much dry food with him, so he had to wait until tomorrow to eat. The young man was unhappy, sat down and sulked, Gu Shengchao happened to have the remaining buns in his arms, he took out two meat buns and handed them to the young man. The boy's father refused at first, but then he couldn't stand the smell of the bun, so the boy took the initiative to take it and devoured it, almost choking.

The big ship sailed smoothly for more than ten days, stopping at several docks on the way to replenish supplies and facilitate passengers to get on and off the ship. Gu Shengchao ate all the buns the next day, mainly because the teenager ate a lot and ate a lot for Gu Shengchao. Fortunately, meals were provided on the boat, and Gu Shengchao bought it to share with the young man, and the young man's father was shy and ate the dry food he brought with him on the side.
