Nine-layer armor-breaking

Chapter 245 Where is Brother Gu
Gao Rubang waited for a long time, but the Dianlin Taoist Temple did not send anyone to pick him up.

Cheng Xiuyong had just finished dealing with the division of the Gao family and was soon taken away by Lian, the deacon of Qixi Taoist Temple.

It was not until today that I saw Deacon Zhu.

Gao Rubang once thought that he was taking too much risk.

After all, the cooperating Taoist temple for this Five States Martial Arts Show is Qixi Taoist Temple.

Therefore, Qixi Taoist Temple is the Taoist temple that we should go to for guidance this time.

The Dianlin Taoist Temple was merely an "uninvited guest" in this five-state martial arts performance. Choosing the Dianlin Taoist Temple instead of the Qixi Taoist Temple was indeed a risky move.

However, Gao Rubang had to make this choice.

Even now, Gao Rubang does not have much regrets, but it just did not meet his expectations.

But if he were given another chance, he would still make the same choice.

Perhaps it has something to do with Gao Rubang's personality. Although he is a righteous man, he has always been the one who wants to be competitive.

In the past, he was a diligent martial artist.

Now that he has become a top warrior, he naturally doesn't want to fall behind others.

Although he spends most of his time and energy comparing himself to others, this does not prevent him from seeing the strengths of other warriors.

Although he doesn't want to do better than others, he is used to learning from others' strengths to see if it can help him improve himself.

Since childhood, he has clearly understood the importance of strength.

Therefore, he was also unstoppable in his pursuit of strength.

As a warrior, he is willing to pursue his strongest side.

As a top warrior who is qualified to participate in the Jade Cultivation Channel Trial, he naturally has to be more diligent and work harder.

He has made preparations to further improve his strength with the help of the Taoist Academy before the Jade Cultivation Channel is opened.

Originally, he was quite confident in his own abilities.

It was not until that day when he met the old man in the Qizhou City Lord's Mansion that he began to doubt his own strength again.

That was also the first time he knew that the gap in strength between peak warriors could be so huge.

And there has always been a doubt in his heart.

That is, since the old man is so powerful, why doesn't he try to participate in the Jade Cultivation Channel? Although it is uncertain whether he can pass the Jade Cultivation Channel, with such powerful strength, it is very likely that he can pass the Jade Cultivation Channel trial and become a real cultivator.

To put it another way, even if he didn't pass the trial of the Jade Cultivation Channel, he shouldn't be seriously injured.

Logically speaking, the cost of the Jade Cultivation Channel Trial is relatively small for the old man.

Unless the old man has some compelling reason.

Just when Gao Rubang was lost in thought, a rather deep voice sounded, with some doubt in the voice.

"Ju Baobao?" asked the heavily armored and muscular Deacon Zhu. Hearing this, Gao Rubang, standing behind Deacon Zhu, replied, "Yes, I heard that Senior Brother Ju was also going to come to Dianlin Taoist Temple to receive guidance this time, but he's nowhere to be seen."

"Oh, you mean that boy! I didn't really pay much attention to him."

Deacon Zhu's words actually shocked Gao Rubang.

"What do you mean? I didn't pay much attention to him? How unreliable is that." Gao Rubang thought to himself, tapping his forehead helplessly.

He felt that he must have lost his mind or been fooled.

I didn't expect that such a Taoist temple would be so unreliable.

In Gao Rubang's mind, any Taoist temple would be more than enough to guide him, and this Dianlin Taoist Temple was just a little bit declining, but in his mind, Dianlin Taoist Temple was not weak.

Moreover, Dianlin Taoist Temple can also provide good bonuses to disciples with good qualifications and who are compatible with the attributes of fire and wood.

This led to a situation where the disciples of Dianlin Taoist Temple were not like those of other Taoist temples, where the disciples all developed in a relatively balanced manner.

However, the disciples of Dianlin Taoist Temple are severely polarized.

Some disciples may not develop to the average level of disciples in other Taoist academies of similar size, while some disciples may develop far beyond the average level of disciples in other Taoist academies of similar size.

The reason for this situation is not because the Dianlin Taoist Temple distributes cultivation resources unevenly to each disciple, but because the disciples who practice well, in addition to their cultivation qualifications, are exactly in line with the Dianlin Taoist Temple's Fire Forest Art and other core techniques within the Dianlin Taoist Temple.

On the contrary, there is no imbalance of resources. In this regard, Dianlin Taoist Temple is even better than other Taoist temples of different sizes.

The reason is that the disciples of Dianlin Taoist Temple are almost free-range.

It is not like other Taoist temples that impose many restrictions on disciples, nor is it like the official martial arts schools that have strict requirements on disciples in every detail.

Gao Rubang didn't reply for a long time. Deacon Zhu seemed to have guessed what Gao Rubang was thinking and said, "That child is a martial artist from the Dianzhou Martial Arts School. He will follow the team back to the Dianzhou Martial Arts School first, and then take care of some things before coming to the Dianlin Taoist Temple."

"You are young, and I came to the Taoist temple because I wanted to have someone accompany me. This is the same as when I was young." Deacon Zhu thought to himself.

"So I want to go back to the martial arts hall first and then come to the Dianlin Taoist Temple. I misunderstood the Dianlin Taoist Temple." Gao Rubang also thought to himself.

"Then, senior, do you know when Senior Brother Ju will arrive?" Gao Rubang said to Deacon Zhu who was riding on the same bamboo raft in front of him.

"I'm not sure about that, but I guess it won't be too late." Deacon Zhu speculated about when Ju Baobao would come to Dianlin Taoist Temple.

"Can that senior brother come to the Dianlin Taoist Temple by himself?"

In fact, Gao Rubang was very worried that when Ju Baobao saw the Dianlin Taoist Temple, he would mistake it for a lush forest on the fire and would not be able to find the Dianlin Taoist Temple.

But on the other hand, the aspect that Gao Rubang was most worried about was that he was brought to the Dianlin Taoist Temple by Deacon Zhu, flying on Deacon Zhu's bamboo raft, but it was obvious that Ju Baobao did not come to the Dianlin Taoist Temple with them. So how should Ju Baobao come?

Did Ju Baobao walk to the Dianlin Taoist Temple? Or did he wait for Deacon Zhu to drop him off before going to the Dianzhou Martial Arts Hall to pick him up?

But from Gao Rubang's perspective, the possibility of both situations is not very high.

Ever since Gao Rubang was flying in the air on Deacon Zhu's bamboo raft, he discovered that the terrain along the way was unstable and that there were some ferocious beasts in the Dian forest that even he, a peak warrior, had never seen before. These were obviously not ferocious beasts that a warrior at this stage could encounter.

That ferocious beast can only be encountered by cultivators.
