Primordial Qi

Two beams of light flew between heaven and earth. Gu Qingxue's cultivation became even stronger. Holding Gu Chenyu in one hand, he flew towards a nearby city.

The city is heavily guarded, and the guards are all masters of the Gathering Spirit Realm, and those leading them are even grandmasters.

There was a hint of surprise in Gu Chenyu's eyes. This city was unusual. There were three big golden characters engraved on it: Qingming City.

"This name sounds powerful."

Walking into the city, the two displayed their cultivation, both of them were at the peak of the Spirit Gathering Realm.

"Don't act rashly when you enter the city, and don't cause trouble."

The guards let them go after they finished speaking. They would not stop the cultivators. Anyway, there were cultivators from aristocratic families entering the city, and the city lord was no pushover. The strength of a celestial being was enough to gain a foothold in this city.

They found a hotel and rented two rooms to get to know the situation first.

"A city like this is so prosperous, it shouldn't have only a few celestial cultivators. It looks like something unexpected has happened." Gu Qingxue said.

"If an enemy comes, we will fight him with our generals; if a flood comes, we will block it with earth. Besides, this incident may not be related to the two of us. I will go outside to get some information and see what the situation is first." Gu Chenyu was also a little puzzled. He did not quite understand the arrangements of these city forces and prepared to go out to find someone to ask about the situation.

"Okay, be careful along the way."

Arriving at the Sun and Moon Street in Qingming City, it is the most prosperous place, with many cultivators trading here, and there are also shops of alchemy and weapon refining masters, filled with elixirs and magical weapons.

Gu Chenyu's eyes lit up when he saw the dazzling array of goods. They were all good things he had never seen before. However, when he saw the price, his face instantly fell. What kind of thing? A Soul-Restoring Pill sold for three hundred low-grade spirit stones? He used to eat this stuff as candy beans in Lingmu Sect.

Leaving this prosperous area, although it is good, it is not a place he can afford to spend money. Now they have nothing they want, and they don’t have many elixirs, spiritual medicines, and spiritual stones. They have to think of a way to make money.

Gu Chenyu has been in Lingmu Sect for so many years and knows how to make pills, but he doesn't have a kind of flame, so it would be difficult for him to earn spirit stones by making pills.

Walking on the street, Gu Chenyu saw a stall crowded with children. There was a sign on it saying "Peerless Divine Skill" and it was for sale for only five low-grade spirit stones.

"Five low-grade spirit stones? What kind of martial arts?" Gu Chenyu asked curiously.

"Ding ding ding, let's look at it objectively. This magical skill is called the Five Elements Qi Training Technique. It is suitable for the physical constitution of babies in the Dawu Dynasty. It progresses rapidly and can cultivate the fourteenth level of Qi in one year."

"Hiss, so strong, give me a copy, I want it, I want it."

Gu Chenyu was stunned. Five Elements Qi Training Art? He remembered that when he first entered Chuyun Sect, Li Danqing gave him the Five Elements Qi Training Art. He didn't expect to meet him here. Dawu, Dawu Dynasty?

It is unknown how far the Xingyue Continent is from the Dawu Dynasty. It is difficult for even a cultivator in the Gathering Spirit Realm to fly across that sea area. It would take at least three months for a Jindan cultivator to fly there. Where is the point of a teleportation array?

After spending ten low-grade spirit stones, Gu Chenyu successfully bought the first two chapters of the Five Elements Qigong Technique, Nourishing Qi and Opening the Meridians. Even though he had now reached the Spirit Gathering Realm, he still couldn't resist purchasing this technique. He really wanted to see how powerful this technique, which everyone had a copy of, was.

"Where did this fool come from? How could he be deceived at such a grown-up level?" A voice came from an old man in Kaimai realm.

"Don't be so mean. The young man may not know about it, so why are you joining in the fun?" said an old woman.

Gu Chenyu was stunned. What was going on? So he clasped his fists and said, "Senior, what do you mean?"

"Hahaha, you are such a silly boy. I said you are a silly boy, but you still called me senior." The old man laughed so hard that his leaky front teeth showed out.

"Old sir, please stop teasing me. Since you say I am a fool, there must be something stupid about me. I hope you can give me some advice." Gu Chenyu said sincerely.

The old man didn't keep the secret any longer. He laughed and said, "Everyone in the Great Wu Dynasty has a copy of this technique. You can just copy one. Why do you need to spend money to buy it? And the kid next to that guy was hired by him with spirit stones to act as a stand-in."

Gu Chenyu suddenly realized that he had been cheated.

"Hahaha, young man, you are still too naive. You must have just left home. Five low-grade spirit stones may not seem like much, but it's a waste to buy this worthless thing. Cultivators below the Gathering Spirit Realm still consume gold and silver in the world. Seeing that you casually spend a few spirit stones, you must be from a large sect or aristocratic family. You must be careful when you go out to explore the world."

The old man was pulled by the ear by the old woman and left. Gu Chenyu laughed bitterly behind him. The skills in his hand were indeed real and slightly improved. It was a pity that the following skills were in the hands of the Dawu royal family. If he wanted to practice, he had to work hard.

After Gu Chenyu made some inquiries, he also understood where he was. There were a total of sixteen continents in the Dawu Dynasty, two of which were in the central area, the most prosperous and powerful, with innumerable aristocratic families. The most important thing was that the most powerful Dawu Emperor Zhou Ming lived there, who had been in power for a thousand years, had made countless achievements, and was the tenth emperor.

The place where Gu Chenyu is located is Nanzhou, one of the sixteen continents. It is the first continent across the sea of Xingyue Continent, and it is also the southernmost place under the territory of the Dawu Dynasty.

"The Southern King Guo Chuyi, the Xin King Zhang Daoyuan, and the Bing King Xiao Bingshan, all three are powerful men in the Imperial Realm. The Dawu Dynasty really should not be underestimated. There are three kings in one continent, and they are all in the Imperial Realm."

It is unknown how many years these people have been practicing, and their strength is so terrifying. These three have existed since the founding of the Dawu Dynasty, and they must have been practicing for tens of thousands of years.

Gu Chenyu knew that these were not things he could think about. In the eyes of these powerful men, he was not even an ant.

With such terrifying military force, it is no wonder that the Dawu Dynasty is so powerful and its territory is so vast, able to suppress those major sects and make them unable to raise their heads. There are even only two Xuan-level forces that can still gain a foothold in the Dawu Dynasty.

Gu Chenyu felt that these strong men were like mountains pressing down on him, making it hard for him to breathe. The thought that if he was targeted by beings of this level, he would definitely die.

But then he thought again, he was just an ordinary person, there was nothing to be afraid of, he just needed to practice diligently, these big shots didn't have the time to care about him.

There are many cultivation families in Qingming City. The strength of these big families is average, and the highest cultivation level is only at the Heavenly Man Realm.

"Have you heard? We are going to establish a new sect here. It is said to be a Xuan-level sect."

"Xuan-level? Aren't there only two Xuan-level sects in the Dawu Dynasty? Why did you establish another one? Aren't you afraid of being killed by the royal family?"

"Alas, you don't know this. The Great Wu Dynasty now encourages the reconstruction of sects. Many powerful people are already considering establishing sects. Here, the Qingming Sect, the old city lord established a Xuan-level sect outside. He is a monarch, so the sect he established is naturally extraordinary."

There were people discussing in the tavern. Gu Chenyu and Gu Qingxue had a clear understanding after hearing these things. The Dawu Dynasty no longer opposed the establishment of sectarian forces. On the contrary, they encouraged the rise of sectarian forces within the Dawu Dynasty and provided support.

Faced with such a sudden change, Gu Chenyu and Gu Qingxue were also stunned. Obviously, they both suspected that the person in the palace had been possessed by another soul.

But if you think about it carefully, it should be impossible. The revival of the ancient sect is not so fast. Someone must have been born in advance and reached some kind of deal with the royal family.

The great struggle will not come for a long time, so it would be fine if he could not practice. But now that he can practice, he naturally wants to live longer and make this life wonderful.

The young man is full of vigor and enthusiasm, and he is full of enthusiasm from time to time.

Now that he has decided to practice well, he will naturally not give up halfway. Besides, what's wrong with immortality?

"How about joining in the fun?" Gu Chenyu asked with a smile.

"Qingming Sect?"

"Well, let's go see what's going on."
