Chapter 317: Melancholy
To be honest, Xiao Gu was really tempted, and at that moment, he really had the urge to give up his physical body.
It's not that his Dao heart isn't firm enough, it's just that the temptation is too great!
Venerable Qilin is right, although he has the potential to take a certain step, but it is only a potential, and it is almost impossible to succeed in taking that step.
Moreover, to be able to become a demigod, or even a god, is already very rebellious.
Who in the world can guarantee that he will be able to become the Emperor of the Gods? No one, absolutely no one, has that kind of certainty.
The heavens are changing, and the path of the cultivator is infinitely difficult and dangerous.
There are countless things that fall carefully, even if there is a divine escort, it may not be avoided, this is the avenue of heaven and earth, the way of balance.
With endless resources and endless longevity, you can help yourself send away all your enemies......
All of this is really unimaginably tempting.
Think about his current situation, he is almost the enemy of the world, almost all the gods have thoughts about him, even the gods of the Yan and Huang lineages, and he himself does not have enough strength to protect himself at all.
Think about it, when he dies, what will happen to Xue Wufang, what will Xian'er do?
In exchange for a lifetime of pride and a lifetime of joy in exchange for a life's pride in exchange for a lifetime of freedom, in exchange for a powerful force, few people can refuse such a thing.
As for breaking his word and getting fat, Xiao Gu didn't need to think about this situation at all.
The more powerful the cultivator, the more they attach importance to the oath, because this is the fetters of their Dao heart, it is a flaw, it is a demon in their heart, if they can't fulfill it, it is light to go mad, and it is not impossible to lose their cultivation or even fall.
"I'd love to ...... But...... I can't...... Xiao Gu squeezed out these words with difficulty.
"What?" Venerable Qilin said as if he had misheard.
"For what," he really felt a little unbelievable about Xiao Gu's choice, he could refuse such a condition, was this really just a junior cultivator?
"It's not for anything, it's just that I haven't forgotten my dream," Xiao Gu replied in a strange tone.
The Qilin Venerable was stunned again.
He remembered himself, dreams, everyone had had, but then after he took the Qilin, all that was left was killing and the pursuit of strength.
"I dream of being free, really happy," Xiao Gu said with some interest.
The Qilin Venerable was silent, and only continued to speak after half a sound, "Go on, it's not so easy to defeat the deity."
As the days passed, the battle between the two became more and more intense.
With the help of purple qi, Xiao Gu had already gained the absolute upper hand, but in a short period of time, it was really not ordinary to defeat an emperor who had fought against the gods.
This situation continued unanimously into the third month!
On this day, when the morning light came, a purple qi fell into Xiao Gu's body as usual.
But at the same time, the Qilin Venerable erupted, and the terrifying flames emitted unimaginable temperatures, enough to burn the mountains and boil the sea.
This is the Qilin's natal flame, and it is also the key to the Qilin Venerable's ability to survive.
As a supreme powerhouse left over from the ancients, he knew very well that if he continued like this, his only ending would be to be killed by Xiao Gu, and he would not leave a trace in the world from now on.
Obviously, such an outcome is unacceptable to him.
So, he chose to strike with all his strength and finish his work in one battle.
As one of the strongest emperors in ancient times, he knows countless secret methods, especially some extremely terrifying secret methods, which can allow him to survive in a desperate situation.
It's a pity that he is too old.
Even a god doesn't have such a longevity, not to mention that he is just an emperor, even if he has survived until now with the advantages of the Qilin's natal flame and the advantages of the innate souls, plus the various conditions of the Origin Land.
He is already at the end of his life, and he is even about to perish.
A bit of true spirit has been broken to the extreme, and there is no way to support him to use the secret method, if he uses it forcibly, I am afraid that Xiao Gu will kill himself before he dies.
Therefore, the Qilin Natal Flame has become his most dependent back.
I have to say that it is sad that the most powerful emperor in ancient times has fallen to such a point, and he is not as good as a dog.
The natal flame of the Flame Qilin, that is the real Heavenly Fire.
Even if a large part of it has been consumed in the long years, the rest is still not something that Xiao Gu, a small saint cultivator, can fight, such a flame, even the ancient emperor has to avoid it for the time being.
At this moment, no matter how well prepared Xiao Gu was, he had to despair.
The purple-red flames rose, and the terrifying temperature burned the void into large holes, and just looking at it made people's hearts crack.
"Meow, meow......"
At the last moment, Xiao Gray suddenly opened his eyes.
A bit of strange light shot out from his pupils, and when it landed on Xiao Gu's body, countless flames were extinguished in an instant.
"How is that possible," Venerable Qilin was dumbfounded.
Countless years have allowed him to see too many incredible things, so there are few things in this world that can surprise him, but now, the supreme existence of this warlike god opened his mouth wide and his face was incredulous.
After a long time, he sighed and said, "I see, you are really lucky."
In an instant, this Ancient Qilin Venerable, a terrifying existence that had slaughtered countless stars with a ruthless heart, actually gave up all resistance, allowing Xiao Gu to control his entire body like a bamboo, and compressing his true spirit into a small corner.
"Okay, lucky little guy, I won't resist anymore," Venerable Qilin said indifferently.
Well, Xiao Gu was stunned, but he didn't let his guard down.
With such an ancient existence, any flaw may become a fatal reason for itself.
"Don't worry, I can't succeed with it, and now I understand why it sent me here, I thought it was an opportunity, but I didn't expect it...... Hehe...... ," Venerable Qilin said to himself in a lonely voice.
Does it mean Xiao Ash? Xiao Gu frowned.
"I have to say, your luck is really good, I think if I had such luck as you back then, then I ...... , Hey, forget it, it's finally going to dissipate, before I die, I'll help you, and I can be regarded as finding a successor for myself," Venerable Qilin's words became more and more strange.
"It is difficult to live forever, it is difficult to be immortal, there is no trace of the immortal road, there is no trace of the immortal road......"
Just when Xiao Gu was inexplicable, Venerable Qilin suddenly sang an ancient ballad, and then with a bang, it completely shattered into the purest soul power and dissolved into Xiao Gu's sea of knowledge.
What's going on? Xiao Gu was stunned at the time.
However, feeling that incomparably pure soul power poured into the sea of knowledge and his body, Xiao Gu couldn't care about anything else, and could only quickly cultivate to accommodate this power.
The once supreme existence, the innate beings, even if there was only a small amount of strength left, was enough to benefit Xiao Gu a lot.
The fact is exactly like this, when that terrifying force merged into his body, the aura around Xiao Gu's body began to soar, and the speed was shocking.
Seven Levels of Sanctification!
Sancture Yae!
Ninefold Sanctification!
......
In the blink of an eye, his cultivation rushed into the half-step Ancient Emperor realm like a rocket, and it was only at this time that Xiao Gu reacted.
Not good, he was shocked.
The powerful control force forcibly controlled the rapid decline of the aura around the body, and the terrifying power was compressed in an instant.
Ninefold sanctification, eightfold sanctification, sevenfold sanctification......
A moment later, his aura stepped into the sixfold peak of the Holy Spirit.
However, this was not the end, and before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the aura around him began to skyrocket again.
In this way, again and again, when Xiao Gu was almost exhausted, the surging aura around his body was finally completely suppressed at the peak of the Seven Realms of Sainthood and stopped moving, and at this time, he was truly relieved.
If he hadn't suppressed it in the first place, Xiao Gu had no doubt that his cultivation might have directly stepped into the realm of the Ancient Emperor.
After all, this is the origin left by an emperor, and it is still very simple to step into the ancient emperor.
But this is not what Xiao Gu wants, if this is really the case, his future and potential may really stop here!
