All the creatures that walked out of the Supreme Palace were invincible for an era, and the weakest one was among the top three in the ancient world.
If that young man really came from the Supreme Palace, then Gu Wudi had met his match this time.
"Not necessarily. The Supreme Palace is located in the central area of the Thirty-three Heavens, which is very far away from the border area of the Great Red Heaven. The possibility of the descendants of this force coming to such a border area is not very high." Qingyue saw Gu Wudi frowning slightly and looking thoughtful, and said this hurriedly.
How could Gu Wudi not understand the meaning of her words? He sneered and replied, "I, Gu Wudi, keep my word. Since I promised to help you get the Blue Moon Flame, I will not regret it halfway.
Even if that creature is really the descendant of the Supreme Hall, so what? I just want to compete with such a master. "
Qingyue was not embarrassed when her thoughts were revealed. Instead, she smoothed her hair across her forehead and smiled beautifully.
"Gu Wudi, this name is quite majestic."
"Thanks for the compliment."
“Well, there are a few peerless masters with the surname Gu in my world, but there is really no Immortal King with the surname Gu. You give me the feeling that you are not the descendant of a true immortal, but the descendant of an Immortal King.
This is very contradictory. Could it be that there is an Immortal King with the surname Gu who has been hiding in the world without my knowledge? Are you his successor who was sent into the mortal world to train?"
After knowing Gu Wudi's surname and first name, Qingyue naturally began to guess his origins.
"As for my origins, I advise you not to guess or try to explore them. This is a taboo and will bring you disaster." Gu Wudi saw her curious face and immediately warned her.
Wang Gen had instructed that the secret of the original body being divided into three must not be known to anyone except them, father and son, not even close friends or confidantes. The secret could only be revealed to the world when the three bodies were complete and about to merge into one.
Therefore, he didn't want Qingyue to get to the bottom of it.
However, to Gu Wudi's surprise, after Qingyue heard his warning, the curiosity on her face became even stronger.
"You are right. There is indeed something terrifying about your origins, but I am even more curious. Young man, you have successfully aroused my interest." Qingyue smiled, looked at the tortoise shell hexagram she had just dropped, and looked at Gu Wudi with burning eyes.
"This is not funny at all. If you dig deeper, you might die."
"Okay, keep this mystery for now. With your talent, your rise is only a matter of time. There will always be a day when the answer will be revealed." Seeing that he was not joking, Qingyue spread her hands and replied.
The two of them understood each other tacitly and brought the topic back to the Blue Moon Flame in the valley.
After discussing all the details, Gu Wudi closed his eyes, adjusted his state, and prepared for the next battle.
Time passed minute by minute, the sky gradually darkened, the sun set behind the mountain, and the sky immediately became dim and dark.
There is no moon or stars tonight, and the sky is unusually dark.
All the monks were moved and opened their eyes to gaze at the valley.
At this moment, the fog lingering above and around the valley was dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if it was being swallowed up by something.
In the darkness, a bright blue moon suddenly rose, so soft and beautiful, with a thin smoke-like mist, and sprinkled moonlight like water, which was indescribably holy.
This strange sight stunned the monks outside the valley, and they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Is the so-called perfect fire a blue moon? It is unheard of.
Only some of the powerful people in the Hedao realm from the top forces remembered the origin of this perfect fire.
“Qingyue Flame! It was once glorious for a period of time, but then suddenly disappeared without a trace. I didn’t expect it to be hiding here.” The Supreme of the Dachi Tianzong exclaimed.
“The Blue Moon Flame, those who merge with it are destined to become immortals, so don’t miss it.” The old man in the Hedao realm from the Red Fire Sect said excitedly.
Although the original ancient world is brilliant, true immortals have appeared in the mortal world, and even immortal kings can be seen, but the number of true immortals is not that large. Any big force needs true immortals as the pillars of the sect and the family, not to mention the medium-sized forces. A true immortal can completely take them to a higher level.
A blue moon rose slowly, causing the monks outside the valley who were waiting for the seal to be opened to completely lose their calm, and began to boil and make noise.
"It's about to begin, are you ready, young man?" Qingyue smiled, and a blue lotus blossomed, making the heaven and earth bright.
Gu Wudi waved his hand and said, "Anyway, just do it as soon as possible. Once you fuse the Blue Moon Flame, those geniuses will give up. Before that, I will do my best."
As he spoke, the fog in the valley completely dissipated, revealing a door of light filled with the breath of space and taboo.
"The seal is opened!"
No one knew who shouted, but all the monks outside the valley moved and rushed towards the light gate, all wanting to be one step ahead of others and gain the upper hand.
At the beginning, several young creatures in the Rooting Realm and Dao Beginning Realm successfully passed through the light gate and disappeared into the valley. As a result, when it came the turn of a creature whose Dao Seed had grown into a seedling, the light gate trembled violently and emitted a terrifying green light.
All of a sudden, the creatures that grew from the seeds of Tao turned into ashes, without even a burial place.
Such a horrifying scene greatly shocked the monks who rushed forward one after another.
"This is……"
"I understand. This light gate has a realm limit. Once the Dao Seed has grown into a seedling, you are not allowed to enter. If you force your way in, your fate will be the same as that of the cultivator just now."
The cultivators were whispering to each other. The creatures beyond the Dao Shi realm did not dare to move forward. Even the creatures at the Dao Shi realm and below were a little terrified. No one wanted to joke with their own life.
"Let's go, this is an opportunity to gain an advantage, we can't miss it."
Gu Wudi whispered, and took Qingyue across the crowd. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he was the first to walk into the light gate.
Seeing that the light gate did not emit green flames, the other monks who met the requirements felt relieved and rushed in.
"What a pity. This gate only allows creatures at the Daoshi realm and below to enter. We cannot take any action. The situation inside will become a mixed bag, and there is no guarantee that someone will take advantage of the situation." A supreme being said this with a frown on his face.
That is the perfect fire, something that the sect must fight for. Naturally, they don't want it to fall into the hands of others.
Chapter 84: Samsara Halberd
The light gate flickered, and Gu Wudi and Qingyue passed through a layer of something similar to a boundary wall and came to a completely unfamiliar world.
In the void, the avenue was transformed into long strips flying in the air, extremely quiet and bizarre. Occasionally, when it was touched, it would make a "sizzling" sound like electric sparks.
Under the feet, the patterns changed, the green light was faint, and there were terrifying killing arrays everywhere. Once stepped on, endless green flames would burst out and burn the cultivators to ashes.
Before Gu Wudi and Qingyue walked far forward, they saw a large ball of black ash and a broken, charred, and dead Tao seed on the ground.
He immediately became alert, using his extraordinary spiritual perception to avoid danger and seek good fortune, circumventing one hidden killing formation after another.
Behind the two of them, young monks continued to pour in and rushed forward.
"what!"
Screams resounded through the sky. A young man from a powerful force with a promising future accidentally stepped on the patterns of the killing array and was swallowed by the green flames. If he had not been protected by a self-defense treasure, there would probably be another pile of ashes on the ground.
Even so, he was burnt on the outside and tender on the inside, with blood oozing out.
Seeing him suffer such a great disaster and almost die, the monks next to him changed their expressions slightly and became cautious in their movements.
"Where is Qingyueyan?" Gu Wudi felt that the genius behind him was gradually approaching, and the situation was not optimistic, so he asked hurriedly.
"It's just ahead. After crossing a narrow path, you will be able to come into contact with it. However, before that, there is the Causal Flame Area that tests the cultivator's aptitude for cultivation, and the Heart Fire Area that tests the cultivator's determination for cultivation. Only when you meet the conditions for the Blue Moon Flame to select a host can you walk into that narrow path and finally come into contact with the Blue Moon Flame."
"What? Karma flame?"
Gu Wudi was surprised. The flames involving the word "cause and effect" always made people feel inexplicably creepy.
"The so-called causal flame is nothing more than a glimpse into the future to see how far you can go in the future and whether you meet the requirements and standards of the Qingyue Flame for the host." Qingyue explained.
"Okay, then let's hurry up. A few creatures came in just now and we can't see any trace of them anymore. We must not let them get there first." Gu Wudi nodded and flew forward quickly with Qingyue.
This area is a place that tests the spiritual perception of cultivators. For a creature with keen spiritual perception like Gu Wudi, traveling here is as easy as walking on flat ground.
Soon they overtook several monks. Including those who had turned to ashes on the road, there was no one ahead of them, and they became the first echelon.
However, Gu Wudi did not let his guard down, because he could feel that there was an extremely powerful creature following him. This was a true child of destiny, an amazing successor cultivated by the top forces at great cost.
They ran all the way without looking back, just to seize the opportunity and be the first to come into contact with the Blue Moon Flame.
Given the relationship between Qingyue and Qingyueyan, it is only a matter of time to gain his recognition.
What Gu Wudi needs to do is to buy time for her.
Suddenly, the two people who were running wildly felt a burning sensation in their bodies, and their blood flow accelerated unknowingly, gradually reaching a level that was unbearable.
"puff!"
Green flames rose up, wrapped around their bodies, and quietly burned every corner. This was different from the green flames that had just emerged from the killing array pattern area. It was not so hot, and contained unfathomable power of laws. Just as Qingyue said, it was peeking into the mystery of heaven and seeing into the future.
Finally, the green flames on the two of them went out, and nothing happened.
This means that they have passed the test and have been recognized by Qingyueyan in terms of qualifications.
Without the interference of the causal green flame, Gu Wudi and Qingyue flew at high speed.
Since Qingyue was still a mortal, her speed was not very fast, and Gu Wudi had to hold her arm the whole time, which was actually very inconvenient.
So, Gu Wudi decided to go all out and simply picked him up and ran forward with amazing strength.
"excuse me."
He whispered, hugged the delicate Qingyue, and ran towards the next test area. The wind was whistling, and strands of black hair with a faint fragrance hit his face. Gu Wudi didn't pay any attention to it, and his attention was almost all on the young genius who was chasing him closely.
The reason why he held her in front was because he was afraid that the chosen ones behind him would attack them. If he carried Qingyue on his back, then as a mortal, she would have to face the killing of the cultivators.
Qingyue, who knew the reason, did not resist and let Gu Wudi do what he wanted. However, she, who had always been aloof from worldly affairs, blushed for a rare moment.
After all, in the past fifteen years, she has never had any contact with any man from outside the world. She has been living in seclusion, studying divination and other knowledge with her master. This is the first time she has had such intimate physical contact with a strange man.
Although Gu Wudi was only ten years old at this time, he had a body comparable to that of an immortal prince, and he was strong and powerful. Even while holding Qingyue, his speed was not affected at all.
In the midst of lightning, a unique fragrance belonging to a woman entered his mouth and nose. It smelled very pleasant and refreshing, and made his restless and restless heart calm down involuntarily. If he closed his eyes, a blue moon would rise in his mind, bringing peace and tranquility.
Gu Wudi couldn't help but take a few deep breaths, and he exerted force on his feet, increasing his speed even faster, leaving behind the chosen ones of several major forces who were following closely behind him.
Being so close, Qingyue could naturally sense his movements, and a blush suddenly appeared on her flawless cheeks.
Suddenly, a heat wave came, and it was another blue flame. This time, it burned very strangely and burned Gu Wudi's clothes to ashes. The same happened to Qingyue in his arms. The two of them were so naked and so close to each other that they had no time to cover themselves.
One is strong and powerful, with bulging muscles and a strong sense of strength, with black hair draped over his shoulders, sparkling with precious light, and eyes as bright as the stars. The other one has a slender and graceful figure, as white and crystal as ivory, with fairy-like skin and bones, white and translucent, flashing with a soft luster.
The four looked at each other and the atmosphere instantly became awkward. Gu Wudi could clearly feel the burning heat on his arm, and Qingyue could also hear the accelerated heartbeat in that majestic chest...
"This is the heart fire area, which will start from the seven emotions and six desires of human beings and penetrate everywhere. If you are caught in it, you will be doomed and will be possessed by inner demons from then on." Qingyue reminded in a crisp voice.
Gu Wudi nodded. Even though he felt shocking sensations from time to time, his determination to follow the Tao remained steadfast.
"Everything we see now is fake. It's all caused by the anger in our hearts." He said indifferently.
Afterwards, the two of them remained silent and calmed themselves down. Soon, the clothes that had been burned to ashes by the green flames were restored to their original state. This showed that they had passed the test of desire in the Heart Fire Zone.
Then, the "seven emotions and six desires" mentioned by Qingyue descended one by one. Illusions appeared one after another, all of which were lifelike and looked no different from the real world.
However, Gu Wudi and Qingyue were not ordinary people, and a mere illusion was not enough to confuse their minds.
When their eyes returned to reality, the two's postures had not changed, with Gu Wudi still holding Qingyue.
Moreover, Gu Wudi did not move an inch. Since entering the Heart Fire Zone, they stayed where they were and did not move forward any further.
