Chapter 84 Destiny Fishing
Chapter 84 Destiny Fishing
Bai Nanming is Her Royal Highness the Princess of Daqin.
In addition, she is also one of the most powerful practitioners in the world today. Her realm has reached the state of enlightenment, and she is only one step away from becoming an immortal.
There is an immeasurable gap between Gu Zhuo and her now, but he still dares to judge that there is something wrong with the other party's practice. This is because he is in the other party's dojo called Cangshan.
Not long ago, everything here spoke a word.
The sentence was that she hadn't come to see us for a long time.
The "she" in the words is Bai Nanming, because she is the owner of Cangshan Mountain.
Gu Zhuo didn't say a word at the time, so there was no possibility that those voices were lying.
Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for a practitioner to leave his own temple for a long time, because the most suitable place for them to practice is to open another temple in the world.
With this as a premise, he naturally recalled the sudden arrival of Xiu Hu Zhenren in the capital, and the fact that the reason why this Zhenren was late that night was because he had a secret meeting with someone from the evil sect... The result is self-evident.
If there really was a problem with Bai Nanming's practice, and the evil heretics led by the Tianming Sect were ready to take advantage of this opportunity to stir up a disturbance, then he, who was currently in Cangshan, would undoubtedly be the first to bear the brunt of the attack, and there would be no possibility of escaping.
No matter how confident Gu Zhuo is, he must prepare for this in advance.
……
……
"What are you thinking about?"
A quiet voice sounded.
Gu Zhuo put aside his thoughts and said, "I'm sorry."
This naturally means that it cannot be said.
Yu Sheng shook his head and said, "I should say sorry."
Gu Zhuo thought about it and said nothing.
Yu Sheng tilted his head slightly, looked at him seriously, and said, "I don't understand."
She paused, remembered the evaluation Gu Zhuo gave her not long ago, and added seriously.
"What I mean by this is that I don't understand how you won the bug just now, but this doesn't mean to ask you why, because everyone has their own secrets."
Gu Zhuo was slightly startled when he heard this. Looking at her inexplicably serious eyes, he said honestly, "I didn't plan to tell you either."
Yu Sheng said: "Yeah."
The two said no more and looked ahead at the snowy scene.
Completely different from the mountain path behind that only requires climbing up steps, after the flat land where the ice lake is located, there is no clear road to walk on, only endless snow and rugged protruding rocks.
And the steep peak that is still out of reach.
What the candidates need to do now is to find a path leading to a higher place among the pale snow and dark stone pestles.
This level is not only a test of the examinees' eyesight and judgment, but also requires them to have sufficient mental strength and vigilance to guard against accidents that may occur at any time. It even has certain requirements on their physical skills, because there must be extremely wide cracks on the road that need to be crossed.
But since this is an exam, there must be an optimal solution.
Gu Zhuo and Yu Sheng stopped at this moment, looking for the answer.
At this moment, Yu Sheng suddenly remembered something.
"There's one thing I don't understand."
"Ok?"
"Why do you insist on holding this umbrella?"
"Feel sorry."
"Can't you tell me this?"
"Yes."
After being rejected repeatedly, Yu Sheng still showed no sign of being angry. She smiled gently and said, "Although I don't understand it, you are indeed very good."
Gu Zhuo returned the same smile and said, "Thank you."
……
……
The gods were silent.
On the flying boat and in front of the imperial city, all those who had previously made a clear judgment of Gu Zhuo were deeply confused by the whirlpool of wind and snow that collapsed on its own.
Many people first looked at each other, then looked at the empress and Pei Jinge, and after finding that there was no change in their expressions, they subconsciously turned their gaze to the depths of the imperial city.
Even though everyone knew that this could not possibly be cheating, after all, no one would be stupid enough to cheat under the spotlight of all the people, let alone in such an extremely arrogant manner.
What's more, Gu Zhuo would never be defeated by that ice worm.
However, even though they knew this, they still couldn't help but have such thoughts, because... this is really incomprehensible.
Deep in the imperial city, there is Jinghai.
His Majesty the Emperor sat on a bamboo chair, holding a fishing rod in his hand, looking calm and composed.
The eunuch leader, who had become half a legend in the world, was now standing behind the emperor with his eyebrows lowered.
"Do you understand?"
His Majesty the Emperor suddenly asked. The eunuch leader knew that this question was about how Gu Zhuo did it. After thinking for a moment, he shook his head and said, "I don't understand."
His Majesty the Emperor smiled and said casually: "I didn't see it clearly either."
The eunuch leader was very surprised when he heard this, and thought that if even Your Majesty couldn't see clearly, then Her Royal Highness the Princess must be the only one in the world who knows the truth?
The lakeside was quiet.
His Majesty the Emperor let go of the fishing rod and put his hands into the basin of water beside him.
For some unknown reason, blood suddenly gushed out of his hands, instantly staining them red, and clear water could no longer be seen.
The eunuch leader watched this scene and saw His Majesty the Emperor using his supernatural powers again. His eyes revealed a lot of worry and he remained silent.
After a moment, His Majesty the Emperor withdrew his hands, took the towel handed to him and wiped his hands carefully.
"Your Majesty, you can't do this again."
"Why?"
"Fishing with destiny... is too much of a burden for you right now."
"I have to pay a price, otherwise how could those stubborn Taoist thieves be willing to take the bait and give me the chance to catch them all in one fell swoop?"
The eunuch leader said no more.
His Majesty the Emperor continued to hold the fishing rod, and finally said calmly: "It's still the same thing after all. It's a pity to miss such a good opportunity, both for me and them."
……
……
No one gave an explanation as to how Gu Zhuo defeated the ice worm, and people naturally could not always focus on his and Yu Sheng's backs. Their eyes were scattered on those geniuses who came later.
Bai Langxing demonstrated extremely strong combat instincts in this battle, proving to the world that even if he could not use the Frost Tribulation of All Things, he could still firmly occupy the fifth position.
What is even more exciting is that his fighting style is not as clean and neat as Gu Zhuo and Yu Sheng, which is difficult to evaluate, but it truly carries a strong feeling of fighting on the battlefield.
Even though the monster made of ice and snow had no blood to splatter and Bai Langxing was never really injured, the direct confrontation between the iron spear and the monster's claws was still exciting for many people to watch.
In comparison, the battle scenes presented by the Immaculate Monk and the Goddess of Scenery… the former was too plain, while the latter was too gorgeous. With a slight wave of her sleeves, several virtual swords made of wind and snow broke through the air, forcing the giant statue to retreat step by step, unable to fight back at all. The victory was easy.
The other talented people who have entered the realm of Dongzhen will naturally not be left at this level. It is just a matter of whether they win quickly or slowly.
Lin Wanyi naturally would not lose either, and won quite beautifully, attracting everyone's attention.
In addition, the battles that attracted the most people were how those temporary teams faced monsters that became stronger or more numerous with the number of people. The candidates tried every means to deal with the monsters but were still exhausted. They also watched the candidates inadvertently harm their companions, causing them to be wiped out on the spot and be distraught. After waking up, they angrily blamed the other party for their own mistakes, creating a wonderful quarrel with red faces.
Then, these candidates will often separate to find companions they recognize and challenge this level again. They will either be excited after success or repeat the previous process after failure.
Needless to say, the vendors and restaurants near the imperial city made a lot of money today, and the ground was almost covered with fruits and vegetables.
Starting from this stage, many candidates directly used up their three re-examination opportunities and ended their journey in this year’s summer festival. They left the Cangshan Mountain which was eternally shrouded in wind and snow, returned to the human world, and then stood there in confusion or crying bitterly.
In fact, the difficulty of this level is not too excessive - except for the unknown change caused by Gu Zhuo.
None of the geniuses who are placed at the top of the list by the Sky Patrol will fail at this level.
Therefore, when Song Jinglun lost an opportunity at this stage, many people couldn't help but feel shocked, then they understood it in depth, and then they couldn't take their eyes off it.
Song Jinglun was only one step away from Dong Zhen, and he was born into a powerful family in Shendu, so he had been quite famous over the years.
Although many people insist that he is overrated, he is undoubtedly the top talent as long as he is not compared with those perverts who have already stepped into the cave.
The reason why a genius like this got into trouble here is because someone stabbed him in the back at the most critical moment.
The young man named Wei whose family was nearly destroyed in the bloody incident on Chang Street.
At this moment, the confrontation between Song Jinglun and the young man surnamed Wei in the wind and snow attracted countless people's attention.
Lin Qianshui also participated in the summer festival this year. Coincidentally, she chose the same mountain path as the two men and passed the second level in a slightly thrilling manner.
She looked at the two people of her own age across the snowy sky, thinking helplessly that no one could really be killed here, so could the two of you not go somewhere else and do this again?
It's really inexplicable.
Why didn’t I meet Mr. Gu?
Lin Qianshui sighed inwardly, and was forced to expend his true energy to draw a talisman for Mo to dispel the coldness that kept invading him. He wondered if he should yell a few more times to ask them to stop fighting? To show his friendship with his classmates?
do not.
Let’s decide the winner quickly.
……
……
While a large number of candidates were still worried about the second level, Gu Zhuo and Yu Sheng had already taken a step forward and officially entered the third level of this summer festival.
The Immaculate Monk and the Goddess of Jingtian were about to take that step. Bai Langxing, perhaps because he had lived in the wilderness for many years, was quite familiar with this kind of terrain, and he actually set out earlier than the other two.
Li Ruoyun and other geniuses of the same level were frowning at this moment, painstakingly deducing and calculating the path ahead.
Although no one explained the rules for this summer festival, everyone had a feeling in their hearts.
When all three levels are passed and the waves are washed away... that is the moment when these true geniuses who were deliberately separated are able to meet again.
I also know that the updates are not frequent enough. I will try my best to write more in the future and strive to have three chapters a day.
