The Gu family is not only the largest cultivation family in Yanzhou, but also has a reputation and power in the entire Tianxuan Continent that is not inferior to a few of the Nine Great Sects.

The once prosperous family turned out to be the scene it is today, and Chang Ling and Gu Siyu were silent for a long time.

"Let's go. Gu Siyu was the first to speak.

Chang Ling didn't ask Gu Siyu what he was looking for on this trip, so he had to follow him quickly.

Chang Ling's impression of 'Gu Zhai' is still quite profound.

I forgot how long ago the last person who could be called a hero in Chang Ling's impression fell here.

It was a Jindan Realm cultivator, Chang Ling still remembered his admiration for him, but he couldn't remember what sect he came from or what he looked like.

After Yu Yu left, Chang Ling seemed to be no different from the rest of the Condensing Realm monks who were barely surviving in Yanzhou.

Only by facing all the dangers and hardships can Chang Ling understand what his previous time was like...... Arbitrary.

At that time, the Gu Mansion was not as dilapidated as it is now, or it became the last fortress that the creatures of Yanzhou held on to after the barrier was erected.

There are still so many people who are willing to stick to this place and fight against the demonic spirit, and the role of that person cannot be ignored.

Not for the sake of relatives or juniors, but for the sake of profit, that person treats everyone equally and with kindness.

He would descend from the sky when others were besieged by demons, and he would rebuke the monks for their troubles......

When Chang Ling first saw him, she was covered in blood, and the claws of the demon spirit behind her seemed to be less than an inch away from her.

But it was tightly clamped by a strong force, and it was not allowed to move forward an inch.

She was saved.

A man who has been running in the darkness for a long time stumbles upon a bright light.

The first is that your eyes will be stung.

The man was not tall and his shoulders were not broad, but standing in front of him seemed to help her hold up the whole world.

The rest of his life after the catastrophe was restless, and because of the previous battle, Chang Ling's ears were full of roars.

She didn't hear the man's name.

After a few more struggles, she slowly got up, followed behind this person, and walked back to the 'Gu Mansion'.

There were too many people in Yanzhou who didn't have time to evacuate, and in the past few years that he had followed Yuyou around, Chang Ling thought that he had seen all kinds of things in the world.

A devastated earth, desperate beings.

But when I saw the scene in front of me, I couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

If it weren't for the fact that the sky and the earth were all gray, Chang Ling wondered if he was standing outside an ordinary Xiuzhen Realm bazaar.

It was all too calm and beautiful to seem out of place with her life experience.

If the only place that is different from the interior is here, the people have to band together to deal with the demons from time to time.

The demons in a large area around the Gu Mansion have been cleaned up, and everyone who lives here can sleep peacefully when they are tired.

And all of this comes from him.

After all the sects, major families, and many Yuanying Realm monks gave up on this land, a once inconspicuous Jindan Realm monk used his heart and sweat to rebuild order in this barren land.

During the days in Gu Zhai, it can be said that Chang Ling had a rare comfortable time in Yanzhou.

I don't know how many years later, she is willing to use the word 'companion' to define the monks around her again.

Together, they face the evil spirits, and in their spare time, they also find an open space to meet each other.

But the temporary calm will eventually be broken.

The accident probably started when the first peony flower that turned gray devoured its owner who cared for it.

Plants impregnated with demonic energy are terrifying, they are tough and flexible, and they are everywhere.

The huge Gu Mansion became depressed in an instant.

The bloody reality that took place from within shattered this ephemeral order.

When it comes to their own safety, the crowd begins to become chaotic and frantic.

If at the beginning, in the face of plants that have not been able to devour so much food, everyone working together is not without a chance of winning.

But everyone only thinks about their own escape.

The simplest and most despicable idea is that as long as I run faster than anyone behind me, I won't be the one who dies first.

Chang Ling once looked at him from afar.

He stood on the highest tower of the Gu Mansion and looked at this side from afar, but it was too far away for Chang Ling to see his expression clearly.

She couldn't be too distracted by him, dealing with those plants that seemed to be everywhere, Chang Ling was also a little overwhelmed.

The Gu family is a family famous for spirit beasts, and the precious spirit beasts were almost all brought with them when they were evacuated, but the rations of the spirit beasts, those spirit plants that were carefully served in the past, still grew wildly on the land.

Ordinary plants are very fierce after being contaminated with demonic energy, not to mention these spirit plants.

Everywhere there were severed limbs and blood of monks and mortals, twisted and twisted gray vines, huge leaves that seemed to obscure the sky......

This was the first time that Chang Ling had confronted a plant contaminated with demonic energy, and countless monks had paid with their lives for their lightness.

Then, in the seemingly boundless gray, a bright light bloomed little by little.

Chang Ling had only occasionally heard his master blow himself up and extinguish a large part of the demon spirits in the words of praise from everyone.

Later generations will only say how many demon spirits he killed.

Few people can describe what it was like for a high-ranking monk to blow himself up.

The man stood in mid-air, not tall and broad, but his earth-shattering power erupted.

Countless spots of light exploded in front of Chang Ling's eyes little by little, and the ground under his feet quickly became scorched black, and the 'hissing' sound kept coming out of the soil, which was the wild screams of the plants before they died.

It's dazzling.

Chang Ling stepped on the Yuan Sacrifice Sword and quickly retreated, while he couldn't help but look back.

Even with that bright light, she couldn't see anything else.

At that time, she had been in Yanzhou for many years, and under the continuous action of her own experience and the demonic energy in her body, she had become a 'cold-hearted and cold-lunged' person, but that light also seemed to light up her heart, which was gradually wrapped in gray mist.

How warm and bright.

Chang Ling couldn't help but want to get closer, wanting to guard.

Because she no longer knew how to be that light, the only thing she could do was to be an eternal guardian of the light.

She hopes that this kind of light can light up everyone's heart and every corner of this continent.

Is it really going to get better?

Before the remnants of the Jindan Realm monk's self-explosion were dissipated, the comrades-in-arms who had fought side by side in the past had already faced each other with swords.

The peaceful dwellings and markets are gone, and the only thing they can do in the long way of survival seems to be to keep themselves a little more reserved.

When everyone entered Yanzhou, there was no preparation for a 'protracted war', and after all these years, some monks didn't even have spirit stones on their bodies, and the limited materials were divided equally among everyone, which would only make everyone die here.

It's better to concentrate on your own hands, and maybe you can fight for a glimmer of life.

Everyone thinks so, and everyone humbly and desperately expects that they will be the one who will survive until the time comes.

Then before that, in addition to the fierceness, there was a faint gray mist under their eyes.

Before the incident, Chang Ling was performing martial arts with others outside the Gu Mansion, and when everyone started to flee, she was naturally at the forefront.

She didn't want to give everyone the idea of the queen, and she didn't want to save the man.

Ideals, justice, kindness...... The countless virtues they have sworn to abide by are too thin and fragile in the face of facts, life and death.

Chang Ling thought with some sadness, the only thing she could do was to work hard to cultivate and improve her realm in the future, and when she became a person who could decide the fate of this continent, she would never give such an order again.

For many years afterward, when Chang Ling dreamed back at midnight, he could always remember the dazzling light of that day.

Obviously, Yanzhou at that time couldn't even glimpse the skylight because of the excessive demonic energy, but it was so bright.

It's so bright.

After experiencing the clamor of countless plants that had been impregnated with demonic qi and the self-explosion of a Jindan Realm monk, no part of the huge Gu Mansion was intact from the inside out.

Chang Ling looked at the dusty pieces and followed behind Gu Siyu in silence.

If it weren't for Gu Siyu's important business, she might never have returned here in her life.

At least when she couldn't give this person an explanation, she didn't want to be here again.

Even if he was facing a ruin, Gu Siyu was still extremely familiar with the pair of broken ruins in front of him.

Soon, he took Chang Ling to the place where it should have been the original main hall.

The young man seemed to have expected this situation, and turned around and said to Chang Ling with some apologies: "It's troublesome, you need to clean up this place with me first." ”

Chang Ling nodded.

The speed at which the two Condensing Realm cultivators cleaned up the place was still very fast, and Gu Siyu wanted to reluctantly put these broken stones together at first to see if they could form the same shape as before.

However, the damage here is still too severe, and countless parts have already turned into ashes and I don't know where they have been blown by the wind.

After trying a few times, he still gave up a little depressed.

So the two cleared out a clearing.

Gu Siyu bent down, his fingers constantly tapping all over the ground.

Looking at it, it looks like I'm looking for something like a basement.

Chang Ling had no intention of snooping on Gu Siyu or the Gu family's secrets, so he opened his eyes quite knowingly, and carefully looked at his former 'home'.

Leave no stone untouched.

The warm and beautiful memories of the past warmed her cold heart soaked in gray mist a little bit.

Whether it is in the illusion or in the reality of what she has seen and heard, she should have given up on everything in the world a long time ago, the overwhelming pressure and crisis hit her, and she had no need to insist on it for a long time.

But there are always some people who tell her at a tragic price that this world should not be like this.

Chang Ling couldn't help but clench the long sword in his hand.

At first, she was ignorant and embarked on the immortal path, and she didn't know what kind of road she was going to take.

Later, after a series of accidents, she just wanted to become stronger and then seek justice.

When she saw the wider world, she knew that she could not be trapped by the past, and for the first time she firmly held the hilt of the sword, saying that she would protect the world.

Reality poured cold water on her again and again, and she couldn't even protect herself and live well, so she could only face parting and death with her eyes open.

To this day, she still hasn't forgotten it, and she still doesn't dare to forget it.

The girl with firm and bright eyes back then promised in her heart.

Chang Ling opened his eyes again, and it was clear for a long time.

For a while, the aura between heaven and earth was mixed with demonic energy, and all of them were surging towards Chang Ling.

With her as the center, a spiral of layers of storms was formed.

Chang Ling only felt that the aura in his body involuntarily surged towards the dantian.

The surface of the humanoid divine soul in the sea of consciousness also flashed golden light from time to time.

Chang Ling barely maintained his conscious consciousness and couldn't help but smile bitterly, how could he be in time for this.

In the more than ten years in Yanzhou, her cultivation has already reached the critical point of the concentrating realm, and she is reluctant to break through because she is worried about the karmic interference in the sea of consciousness, and the second is that the environment in Yanzhou is too bad.

However, after being at a critical point for a long time, it finally came to a time when I couldn't hold it anymore.

At this point, Chang Ling had no time to think about anything else, so he had to put all his mind on himself.

Gu Siyu on the side was taken aback by this change, and the whole person quickly moved backwards.

Whether it is condensing the golden pill or shaping the Yuan Ying later, it is indispensable to communicate with the heaven and earth.

Worried about his friend, Gu Siyu stopped and hurriedly turned around to look at the incomparably small figure standing between heaven and earth.

Why did you suddenly have an epiphany? Gu Siyu smiled bitterly.

He thought about it, and when he and Chang Ling returned from Yanzhou, he used his merits to exchange a Realm Breaking Pill in the family and give it to Chang Ling, which also added some assurance to her smooth condensation of the Golden Pill.

Who would have thought.

Gu Siyu took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, his divine sense had been released, and he also took Xiaobai out of the spirit beast bag.

Always on guard against the figure that wants to get close to Chang Ling.

The most difficult level can only be solved by herself, so leave the rest to him.

As time passed, the sky above Chang Ling's head was already overcast.

The thick clouds seemed to be pressing directly on her head, and it was noon, but it was very dark.

In the clouds, a strong aura is brewing.

After Gu Siyu saw the clouds clearly, the stunned on his face couldn't be concealed.

"Is this a heavenly punishment?" he muttered in disbelief.

The common heavenly punishment is that when a monk breaks through the Yuanying Realm, he will cause the envy of heaven and earth and need to endure several or dozens of thunder rays from the power of the world's origin.
