In the heavy silence, in the darkness, the dawn began to appear slowly, like a faintly lit candle flame, and the life given began to revive everything. (Please search for the fastest novel website!)

A whisper broke the silence, and the power gradually spread throughout the body, and consciousness awakened.

"This is ......" lifted his eyelids, and it was a warm room, and the reason why it was called warm was because it was really hot here.

"It's so hot...... The tactile nerves of the skin came to his brain, and Gu Xuyao felt that his whole body was hot, as if he was being burned by fire.

I wanted to escape, but now I was tied to the bed with four leather bands, and I couldn't even move a penny!

"Who! who tied me here, let me go! I'm going to be burned to death!" was forced by this heat, Gu Xuyao shouted.

The door was pushed open, a strange fragrance wafted into the room, and a graceful woman in a green dress slowly entered the room, she gently closed the door, and smiled slightly.

"Little brother, are you calling someone?" "Red lips and white teeth, melon seed face, slender eyelashes and willow eyebrows, undoubtedly beautiful, Gu Xuyao saw this, and then looked at the leather bands on his body, he was a little overwhelmed.

"That...... I...... I'm so hot...... Can you help me untie this band, thank you very much......" Bean-sized beads of sweat flowed, I don't know if it was hot or something else.

The woman did not move, but continued to speak softly.

"Little brother, you say you're hot, why don't people feel it, or do you feel hot when you see them?"

As she spoke, the woman put on a resentful expression, and Gu Xuyao was at a loss.

Fortunately, at this time, the door was pushed open again, and a boy of about thirteen or fourteen years old walked in, dressed as a Taoist priest, with a immature face.

"Tsk, it's a shame that you're still so old, this is a good thing for you, I don't know what Uncle Shi picked you up for, you're scarred, you don't even have half a life left, if you didn't rely on this Yuan Fire Candle to heal your injuries, you would have died a long time ago! And you, you think about teasing others all day long, think about cultivation, it's annoying!" The little Taoist priest was not very old, but his mouth was unforgiving, and he muttered for a while, and walked to Gu Xuyao's side very reluctantly.

At this time, Gu Xuyao appeared, the bed he was sleeping on did not have a bed board, and the bottom of Gu Xuyao's body was supported by a few horizontal logs of unknown material, and below were three huge candles, on which orange flames were shining.

"Little brother, I'm sorry, it's really because it's too hot, that, can you hurry up......" From Daotong's words, it was not difficult for Gu Xuyao to hear that he didn't seem to be in hell, nor was he suffering from some kind of oil pot punishment, it turned out that someone saved him.

Xiao Daotong glanced at Gu Xuyao when he heard this, took out a piece of yellow paper from his arms and threw it on the candle below, the flame quickly burned the yellow paper to ashes, and the rubber band on Gu Xuyao's body was immediately loosened.

"Thank you, little brother, in Xia Gu Xuyao, I don't know what you call it, little brother?" Gu Xuyao climbed down from the "torture bed" and hugged his fists to thank you.

Xiao Daotong glanced at Gu Xuyao, flattened his small mouth, and looked like he was ignoring it. "I don't know, everyone else calls me Xiaohu, you can call me that. With that, the boy turned and left.

Gu Xuyao felt that his attitude was not bad, but he didn't know why the other party was like this, and he wanted to ask the woman next to him with some doubts, but the woman took the initiative to come to Gu Xuyao's side. "Little brother, you have a really good figure, although your appearance is a little mediocre, but I like men with scars the most......"

The woman was as angry as an orchid, how could Gu Xuyao have been in such a situation in Leishi Village, and he was at a loss, and he forgot what to say.

"Hey, hey, but I don't like little men, you have to grow up quickly. The woman gently flicked Gu Xuyao's face, flashing away like a gust of wind, and when she reappeared, she was already at the door. "By the way, little brother, the master has instructed that if you wake up, let you go to his Taoist room to find him. ”

"Daofang ......," Gu Xuyao muttered to himself.

"Hurry up, Master must know that you have woken up, and it is not a good thing to let him wait. With that, the cyan raider was leaving.

"Liubu, you haven't told me where your master's Dao room is, how can I get there?" But before the words could be spoken, the woman was gone.

Gu Xuyao sighed helplessly, shook his head, and walked out of the room.

However, this small step out of the room completely shocked Gu Xuyao in the next second.

As the so-called sitting in the well and watching the sky, Gu Xuyao originally thought that the picture of the secluded forest in the forest of the red mud area with the clear spring water of the red mud river was already a supreme beauty, but he didn't know how many times more beautiful than the scenery in the small forest.

A house of a tree, neat and new, not luxurious but give people a fairy wind, a stone staircase in the distance can not count the progressions, vertical upward clouds and mist ethereal, as if in a paradise, its inner shadow is more than a few magnificent buildings faintly exude fairy air, mysterious and unpredictable.

"Here, this must be the sect of monks, I'm out, I'm out!" Excited, Gu Xuyao seemed to hear bursts of fairy music ringing in his ears, and his long-cherished wish for many years was tasted, which was not a feeling that everyone could understand.

But there wasn't enough time for him to get excited, and an indescribable feeling rose in Gu Xuyao's heart, without words or a clear purpose, it seemed that he was just telling him to go in one direction.

"Could it be that the 'master' in those two mouths is calling me?" Gu Xuyao quickly calmed down, although it was in the mortal area, there was a lot of research on monks, every time a monk entered the village to conduct a test, Gu Xuyao would watch from the sidelines, remembering their temperament.

"I have to hurry over, the monk won't do meaningless things, this time he rescued me from the mortal zone and brought me out, he must be interested in me, and although I have left the mortal zone now, it is still unknown whether I can stay in this sect and live in this dangerous cultivation realm. Gu Xuyao quickly stabilized his mind, he knew that it was useless to think too much now, and working hard to do his best was the most important thing.

Following that feeling, Gu Xuyao knew his destination, although he hadn't seen it or been there, but he knew that his destination was in a building on the stairs of an unknown number of steps.

The direction was clear, he used to be a hunter and immediately started to act, all the way forward, all the way are exquisite and simple houses, the corridor can walk four people at the same time, but no one walks on it at all, he knows that this is because most people are in the room to cultivate, even if he has not been in contact with the cultivation of the truth, Gu Xuyao can guess these details.

The closer he got to the stairs, Gu Xuyao felt colder and colder, I don't know if it was because of his weak body, it was summer now.

"What is this?" Finally came to the bottom of the stone steps, and at his feet was a magic circle about half a mile in size, with incomprehensible patterns painted in it, Gu Xuyao stepped on it, and there was no reaction.

"Such a high ......" compared to those things that can't be understood, the stairs in front of him are the real things Xu Yao is worried about, Gu Xu Yao looked up, he didn't feel it when he looked at it from a distance, and now standing at his feet, this staircase really can't see the end, the clouds and mist are shrouded, although it is intoxicating, but it also makes the climber feel retired.

"Huh......" Gu Xuyao took a deep breath and rubbed his hands, as a young hunter who had finally escaped from the mortal zone, he would not back down in the face of such a challenge.

"Bang!" The first step, Gu Xuyao stepped heavily on the stone stairs.

Start climbing!

At the age of nine, he started with Blacksmith Zhang, at the age of ten he learned hunting knowledge and began to carry out basic physical training, at the age of eighteen he officially hunted, and in two years he became the best hunter in Leishi Village, Gu Xuyao is still very confident in his physical fitness, not to mention that the injuries he had suffered before were completely recovered under the strange candle flame, Gu Xuyao was not afraid of this simple test of physical fitness.

But soon, Gu Xuyao knew what it meant to be different from immortals, although the monk was not an immortal, but the distance from the immortal was definitely closer than that of a mortal, he originally thought that it was just a test of his perseverance and physical fitness, but after Gu Xuyao climbed the ladder for an unknown number of steps, there was a change.

"It's so cold...... Gu Xuyao's pores all over his body contracted, and the slightest cold wind blowing through him would make him tremble.

After confirming once again that it was summer, Gu Xuyao couldn't help but feel that this place was very strange.

As Gu Xuyao climbed upwards, the colder the air became, and this was not the main thing, after Gu Xuyao climbed up for another quarter of an hour, he felt that his breathing was also difficult.

There is no wind and snow here, but Gu Xuyao feels as if there are crazy snowflakes on Gu Xuyao's face, sticking to his nose and eyes, this is not all, the stairs that originally looked not steep below were actually steeper and steeper after reaching the top, and now if Gu Xuyao passes out here halfway, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"I can't give up......" Gu Xuyao kept repeating to himself in his heart. "It was not easy to come out, and it was not easy to have the opportunity to find the answer I wanted, I can't, I can't just give up......" gritted his teeth, even though his whole body was stiff and his vision began to blur, but Gu Xuyao just didn't want to give up.

"Bang!" stepped on the stairs again, but this time he was no longer majestic, in order to continue to climb the stairs, Gu Xuyao had changed to use both hands and feet at this time, after all, it is better to use all four limbs together than two feet.

The surrounding immortal qi is still lingering, time passes slowly, Gu Xuyao's progress is getting slower and slower, I don't know how many times, Gu Xuyao's consciousness is slightly relaxed, his hand slipped, and he fell down from the steps, fortunately he grabbed the ladder in time, otherwise he would have to go all the way down and go straight to the underworld.

"Insist on ......" Gu Xuyao silently told himself in his heart that he couldn't give up, but his body was too strict, and his psychological tenacity couldn't help Gu Xuyao support him after all.

The smoke was thick and foggy, Gu Xuyao had just woken up, and again, the heavy eyelids were about to come to an end.

It was not far from the top of the stairs, and he estimated that it was only about two hundred steps, but unfortunately, Gu Xuyao's battered body could no longer support it.

"Can't...... That's it...... "End ......" This was Gu Xuyao's last thought, but unfortunately, less than three breaths after this obsession was born, it was pitch black in front of his eyes.
