Longevity: Start by practicing the ruthless way

"I will kill the witness before that!" The Holy Maiden Xuanyuan was shrouded in holy light, her body outline was gorgeous and attractive, but her eyes were extremely cold and full of murderous intent.

"I advise you not to have such thoughts, otherwise when I get out, I will auction off this piece of underwear of yours to everyone in the world! Hahaha..." Gu Chi laughed out loud.

Both sides used various means to escape, the void collapsed, and the destructive and violent waves raged in all directions. Even a powerful Lord-level powerhouse in the Nascent Soul stage would not be able to contend with this kind of power, let alone them. Once they were caught in it, they would be turned into powder in an instant.

Gu Chi and the big black dog were unable to use magic power. Although they were fast, they were still unable to avoid the residual power. It was only the very edge of the residual power that blew them away in an instant.

At this moment, even their strong bodies could not bear it. Their bones creaked and they flew hundreds of meters like scarecrows in the wind and fell into the mountain stream.

The Xuanyuan Saintess was even worse off than them. Before she could escape to the edge of the area, she was enveloped by the destructive aura behind her. She screamed in fear, and she didn't know whether she was alive or dead.

Gu Chi could clearly hear the sound of his bones breaking. His body was almost twisted and deformed. He had suffered unimaginable damage.

"puff"

After falling into the mountain stream, she completely lost consciousness.

A river formed by mountain streams, waterfalls, and creeks passes through the beautiful mountains. Two figures float up and down on the water, and are carried away by the waves.

During this period, Gu Chi occasionally woke up, but as soon as she regained consciousness, the pain in her body made her fall into a coma again.

She could feel herself floating in a vast river, with at least ten bones broken in her body.

After the system's [Strength] bonus and the tempering of her limbs with the golden silk of the autumn silkworm, her body was so strong, yet she was still injured like this.

It is conceivable that if she had been a little slower and failed to escape to the edge in time, the result would have been even worse than it is now, and she might even have lost her life there.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but when Gu Chi woke up again, she was in so much pain in many parts of her body that she grimaced and almost fell into a coma again.

At this time, the river water has become calm, and you can vaguely see a pier not far away with many fishing boats docked, and there seems to be a city further away.

"Damn it! We haven't even left the harbor yet and we've been hit by a dead person. How can we be so unlucky?"

Such a cursing voice reached Gu Chi's ears, and he seemed to be pushed by the current and hit a fishing boat that was about to leave the port.

"Hey, it seems he's not dead yet."

"Come over here quickly, and bring these two up to have a look."

“Plop…plop”

Someone jumped into the water and hurriedly got Gu Chi and the big black dog onto the fishing boat.

"Oh, why are they all so ugly?!"

Some people cursed in shock, and some even couldn't stand it and ran to the edge of the boat to vomit.

"Hey! Look, this ugly guy is holding a woman's bra in his hand. Could it be that he jumped into the river to commit suicide for love?"

"If nothing else, this bra is really beautiful. It's really unpleasant to see it being held by such an ugly person!"

"I say, you're not trying to snatch this bra, are you? How pretty can the woman they're attracted to be when they're both so ugly? Don't you find it disgusting?"

On the fishing boat, a group of people were talking in a flurry of voices.

Listening to these sounds, Gu Chi roughly understood that when the void shattered, both her and the big black dog's physical bodies were severely damaged, but the illusory body was not removed.

Now, she still has the form of a young Taoist priest, but because of the severe injuries she suffered, her appearance should be extremely ugly, and the big black dog next to her should not have returned to its true form, and still has the appearance of a teenager.

"How should we deal with these two people?"

"While they still have breath left, throw them into the ravine over there. Don't let them die here. If they get the bad luck of the dead, we won't be able to sail this year."

Not long after, Gu Chi and the big black dog were carried away from the dock by a group of people and thrown into a stinking ravine filled with all kinds of garbage not far outside the city.

Only after the group of people had completely gone away did Gu Chi open her eyes and look around, secretly cursing those people for being immoral. They could have found a cleaner place for her and the big black dog to fend for themselves, but they chose to throw them into the garbage dump.

"Lao Hei... Lao Hei... are you okay?" Gu Chi called out to the big black dog next to him a few times, but got no response. However, he could sense a faint fluctuation of life.

Gu Chi wanted to stand up and take the big black dog to another place to heal, but as soon as she moved, she felt severe pain in many parts of her body, which made her gasp for breath and almost lose consciousness again.

She quickly stopped, put away the bra in her hand, took out a small crystal jade bottle from her sleeve, and poured all the healing pills in it into her mouth.

Afterwards, she took out a jade bottle, moved her body to the big black dog, pried open its mouth with one hand, and poured all the healing pills in the jade bottle into it.

"It's fatal..."

Gu Chi's chest heaved as he endured the foul stench and silently tended to his injuries.

Seven days later, her limbs were able to move with some difficulty. Although they were twisted and deformed, she could at least sit up.

She was now unable to mobilize her magic power, and the Heaven-Swallowing Bag and other storage bags could not be opened, so she could not take out the healing elixirs inside. Fortunately, she carried some bottles and jars filled with healing elixirs with her, otherwise she would have had to fend for herself in this stinking ravine.

Half a month later, the big black dog finally woke up. It was injured more seriously than Gu Chi. As soon as it woke up, it returned to its true form. Almost no bones in its body were intact, and its life breath was very weak, but it was finally out of danger.

After half a month of healing, Gu Chi was barely able to stand up and walk. She grabbed a thick branch nearby, supported the big black dog, and limped out of the smelly ravine and walked into the mountains.

The man and the dog walked and stopped, and before dark they found a cave with the entrance covered by vines. The cave was not big, but it was big enough for them to hide.

That night, Gu Chi worked for a long time but failed to light a fire. In the deep night, the howling of wolves and the roar of other unknown beasts could be heard from the forest from time to time. The man and the dog huddled together tightly and did not fall asleep until the sky was bright.

In the next few days, all the healing pills that Gu Chi could take out were basically used up, but the injuries of her and the big black dog had only recovered less than one-ninth, and the broken bones all over their bodies were still shattered.

"Old Black, try to see if you can use the breathing method to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth." Gu Chi said. There was no other way, he could only try to see if he could use the breathing method to lead the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into his body to repair his injuries.
