Crossing the Cultivation Realm: Two Souls Coexist

Early in the morning, the two woke up in the cold wind. The bonfire had long been extinguished. The cold wind in the forest was biting and made their faces hurt.

Gu Yang lit a bonfire, and after the two washed up at the river, they went hunting together to search for breakfast.

Soon, the two found a blue sheep eating grass under the cliff. Gu Yang walked over with the "Kan Tu" sword.

When it ran away, he chased it; when it approached, he chopped it. Finally, he shot the mountain goat's head with a breath seal, causing it to explode directly. The two men happily carried its body back home.

Gu Yang was grilling meat on the side, while Hu Qing put forward his own opinions.

"Brother Gu, the long sword is still not suitable for you. If that mountain goat wasn't stupid, you wouldn't have been able to hit it at all."

Gu Yang blushed a little. He knew his own sword skills. It couldn't be described as entry-level. He knew nothing about it. He didn't know any basic moves and could only chop and hack.

"When I was little, I always dreamed of becoming a swordsman. I would pick up a straight stick from the roadside, use it as my sword, and practice with the children in the village."

Gu Yang began to talk about his childhood, and there seemed to be light in his eyes. Hu Qing also listened curiously.

"After every sword practice, the village chief would grab us and whip us on the buttocks with our swords. Then the parents would take their children home and continue to beat them. But no one came to pick me up. My friends envied me because I didn't have to be beaten. But they didn't know that if I had parents who beat me, I would want to be beaten every day."

As Gu Yang spoke, his mood began to depress. Hu Qing patted his shoulder and asked to divert his attention.

"Then why did the village chief beat you? That's too much!"

"Oh, that's his rapeseed field. Every time we finished sword practice, all that was left were bare stalks."

“Brother Gu, if the fields collapse, you can rebuild them, but you have built them beyond repair!”

With Hu Qing's jokes, Gu Yang's mood recovered and he also wanted to change his weapon.

"Ah Qing, do we have any other weapons? I still can't use this long sword well."

After thinking for a moment, Hu Qing chuckled and asked Gu Yang to search inside the storage ring.

"Brother Gu, I had anticipated this a long time ago. There is a mid-grade spiritual weapon in the storage ring. I bought it at a high price."

Gu Yang took out a green-gold sword from his storage ring. It was the Moon-Covering Sword that Hu Qing had bought at the auction before.

"Oh my god, Ah Qing, this knife is so cool! Why is the blood groove so long? It almost extends to the handle."

Gu Yang held the Moon-Covering Knife in his hand and swung it twice. It felt really comfortable, but the blood groove was a bit too weird.

"Do you know Tianyan Valley? This thing is made by Tianyan Valley. It seems to be made of some kind of meteorite and crystal. This blood tank can absorb blood and heal itself."

Hu Qing searched for relevant information in his mind, but could only find a general idea.

"Tianyan Valley? This is the hometown of weapon refining, and there are real masters here. Ah Qing, you are so amazing. I want to use this knife."

"Then think carefully. Although the Niche Tu is a low-grade spiritual weapon, it has a matching Shadow Sword Technique. I don't know how to use this Moon-Covering Blade at all."

Gu Yang hesitated for a moment, then stroked the blood groove and said with a smile:

"I'll choose the Moon-Covering Blade. I'm really not very good at using the longsword. But, does this 'Nitan Tu' have any special meaning? It's a strange name."

Hu Qing chuckled and pointed at the sword, saying, "Don't you understand this? Read it a few more times~"

"Kan Tui, Kan Tui, Kan... Legs, look at the legs? Ah Qing, you are too insidious!"

Gu Yang also realized that if he focused on his legs during a battle, he would suffer a great loss.

"Let me tell you, this 'Nitan' actually saved my life and killed a killer. Do you want me to give you a few names? For example, 'Hero, Spare Me Your Life'? Humph, wait, Toad's second piss..."

"No need to bother you. Besides, your name is too weird. Whose sword is called Toad's Second Pee? Mine is called Moon Covering Blade."

"Humph, you ordinary mortal, you don't want such a nice name."

……

A moment later, Gu Yang took Hu Qing to the mountainside to find monsters to practice sword skills. He had to improve his strength quickly, and he could only do that through life and death trials.

Hu Qing was responsible for supervision, counting and rescue, while Gu Yang used his mental power to search for monsters and find suitable opponents.

In this way, the two of them found the foot of the mountain from the mountainside, and then from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. There were only a few animals, which could not be considered monsters.

As for the depths of Sunset Mountain, the two of them still didn't dare to go there. The situation there was still too complicated and it was beyond the ability of the two of them who were just in the Foundation Establishment Stage to handle it.

It seems that yesterday's six-handed macaque riot caused all the monsters to hide in caves and dare not come out. Human corpses can be seen everywhere on both sides of the road, all of which have been eaten by monsters.

Gu Yang was a little scared when he saw these scenes. After he found the cave yesterday, he started meditating to recover his body and didn't pay much attention to these movements.

"Ah Qing, who are these people? Why did so many die? What happened yesterday?"

"These are all people from the Qingmu Chamber of Commerce. They came to hunt me down yesterday, but then they provoked the overlord of this mountain range, a six-armed macaque, whose strength should be in the late Nascent Soul stage."

Gu Yang swallowed his saliva. He had never seen a demon beast with such strength as the late Nascent Soul stage. Then he looked at Hu Qing with admiration. He actually escaped.

Hu Qing suddenly thought of the cave yesterday and asked:

"Brother Gu, didn't you notice anything unusual in the cave where you hid yesterday?"

"No, I kept running up the mountain, afraid that those people would catch up with me. I found a cave with a huge rock at the entrance, so I went in."

Hu Qing looked at Gu Yang in surprise. This guy is too brave. Isn’t he afraid that there may be some powerful monsters in there?

Hu Qing took Gu Yang to the cave. Since they hadn't found any monsters yet, looking for some treasures would be a good option.

When the two approached the cave, they were shocked. The huge rock at the entrance had turned into a pile of debris, and the ground was covered with dried blood and some broken limbs.

Gu Yang smelled the strong smell of blood and knelt down to vomit, while Hu Qing observed the surroundings cautiously.

When he saw the scratches on the cave wall, he suddenly understood that the six-handed macaque had been here not long after he left. Thinking of this, he felt a chill in his heart.

If he had insisted on exploring the cave at that time, he might have killed both of them.

Gu Yang also recovered and staggered to Hu Qing. Looking at these shocking scratches, he placed his palm on them for comparison.

The claw mark was more than ten times the size of his palm. The two men held the night pearl and walked carefully into the cave.
