Longevity: Start by practicing the ruthless way

Half an hour later, Gu Chi walked out of the ancient cave with her support on her waist. Murong Zhixiu followed her closely like a dog-skin plaster, pestering her to tell her in detail about the details of her frank meeting with the Holy Maiden Xuanyuan.

"Want to know the details? Go ask Saint Xuanyuan yourself! Don't disturb me while I'm healing!"

Gu Chi sat cross-legged on the top of the snowy mountain and began to heal his wounds by practicing the Qingming Sutra.

"Look at your expression, sometimes you're smiling foolishly, sometimes you have a dark face, and sometimes you have a lewd and treacherous look on your face. You must be recalling what happened at that time, right?" Murong Zhixiu said disdainfully.

"If you have nothing to do, go with Wu Qian to find the warriors left behind by the ancient great power. Don't disturb me from healing my wounds here."

Gu Chi glanced at him and warned, "If you dare to say another word, I'll slap you in the face."

Murong Zhixiu curled his lips and wanted to say something else, but when he saw Gu Chi's raised hand, he couldn't help but shrink his neck and run away.

Gu Chi took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled, and began to calm his mind, putting aside all the exciting and erotic scenes from not long ago, and practicing internal energy to heal his wounds.

It was snowing heavily, and she sat cross-legged alone on the snowy mountain, motionless. Most of her body was covered by the snow, and even her hair was covered with a layer of frost.

On the distant horizon, Murong Zhixiu and Wu Qian were exploring the vast snow, searching for the soldiers left behind by the ancient mighty being after his fall.

Ying Mengli has left and is going back to find a way to break the Soul-Suppressing Tower for Gu Chi.

They were living a peaceful life here, but the outside world was still in turmoil, with various forces trying to find Gu Chi's whereabouts.

Lian Su, the young master of the underworld, and the ancient freaks of Jiuhua Immortal Mansion and Xue Luo Sect were all holding back resentment because of their disastrous defeat at the starting place last time.

During this period of time, they mobilized all the forces they could use, vowing to kill and wipe out Gu Chizhen!

……

A month passed quietly, Gu Chi's injuries had been completely healed, and his realm of cultivation had reached the fifth level of the peak of the Golden Core Stage, and he would soon reach the Great Perfection.

The passage of time in the snowy region is different from that in the outside world. A month passes here, but only ten days pass in the outside world.

"It's really a great place for cultivation where you can get twice the result with half the effort." Gu Chi muttered to herself. This was because she had mastered the time difference, which allowed her to better narrow the gap with other people.

She shook off the ice and snow on her body, and a bundle of ropes appeared in her hand with a flash of light.

"It's really strong." Gu Chi muttered softly.

This was the binding rope that Saint Xuanyuan used to bind Gu Chi's body, and it naturally fell into her hands in the end.

This is an extremely powerful secret treasure, which is made by fusing the divine tendons of various ancient beasts together, and then smelting the power of various laws. Even a strong body like Gu Chi would instantly wilt after being bound by it, unable to exert any strength, and it would be difficult for him to break free on his own.

She used her mysterious magic to completely erase all the spiritual imprints of the Xuanyuan Saint, and then carefully checked it several times. After making sure that there were no hidden dangers, she imprinted her own spiritual imprint on it.

She did not put this secret treasure into the Heaven-Swallowing Bag, but hung it around her waist like a jade carving, as one of her main combat weapons, so that she could use it at any time.

"This Soul-Calming Tower..." Gu Chi frowned. This secret treasure was pressing down on her soul. Even Ying Mengli couldn't get it out. She could only unlock some of the restrictions so that her soul could penetrate some of its mental power and control her body and mind.

"I can activate my secret magic and supernatural powers normally, but I feel a sense of restraint when circulating my magic power. However, it won't affect my strength. I'll get used to it slowly."

This was what Ying Mengli said to comfort Gu Chi before she left. Although it had no effect on his strength, Gu Chi still felt uncomfortable all over when he was using his magic power, and he would definitely not be able to adapt in a short period of time.

Of course, in order to prevent the Holy Lady Xuanyuan from going crazy and urging the Soul-Calming Tower to kill Gu Chi's soul, Ying Mengli placed her own Taoist diagram into Gu Chi's spiritual platform to isolate the Soul-Calming Tower.

In this way, even if Gu Chi and the Holy Maiden Xuanyuan stood face to face, the other party would be unable to communicate because of her Taoist diagram if she wanted to activate the Soul-Calming Tower.

"I still have to find a way to get that Soul-Suppressing Tower out as soon as possible." Gu Chi said to herself. Although her life was not in danger now, the feeling of having a sword hanging over her head still made her uneasy.

She began to continue her retreat, hoping to break through the Golden Core stage and advance to the Nascent Soul stage in one fell swoop.

Of course, during this period of time, the forces that were at odds with Gu Chi, such as the Underworld, the Xue Luo Sect, and the Jiuhua Immortal Mansion, also made big moves. The geniuses from all sides came out together and swept across the ten directions!

Tuoba Cang, Zuo Shiji, Li Wangcen and others were also being hunted down and were now on the run.

"Those forces from the Netherworld and the Jiuhua Immortal Palace are definitely serious this time. They won't give up until Qianhe, the thorn in their side, is completely eradicated."

"They're not just targeting Qianhe this time. Anyone who has come into contact with her, as long as they're in Kunlun Ruins, won't be able to escape!"

"I heard that the young master of the Underworld has personally gone to the Godfall Realm and found several descendants and successors of the Fourteen Great Thieves of the Northern Territory there. I don't know what the final outcome will be."

All the major lands and secret realms of Kunlun Ruins were affected. Several ancient freaks joined forces and set off a huge wave for a thousand cranes.

"You damned ones, just wait for me! Once we get out of Kunlun Ruins, I'll dig up your ancestral graves one by one!"

Tuoba Cang fled from the Shenyun Realm with Li Wangcen and Zuo Shiji, feeling furious.

Their whereabouts were exposed, attracting encirclement and suppression from multiple forces. The leader of the team was the young master of the underworld. The three of them fought their way out.

……

Three months later, Gu Chi finally came out of seclusion and raised his cultivation to the peak of the Golden Core Stage. It can be said that he has reached the threshold of the Nascent Soul Stage.

Her whole body was glowing with precious light, and every inch of her skin was as crystal clear as glass and jade, giving her a feeling of coolness and ethereality.

"You've finally come out. Everything is peaceful and tranquil here, but things are in chaos outside. Lian Su and other forces are looking for you." Murong Zhixiu came forward.

"It seems that they are not satisfied with the gift we carefully prepared for them at the starting point." Gu Chi snorted coldly.

"I heard that Tuoba Cang, Li Wangcen and the others also suffered in the Shenyun Realm. They were chased all the way by the young master of the underworld, and finally fled into a restricted area inhabited by indigenous people. Brother Wu Qian was worried about them and has gone to look for them. I don't know how they are doing now." Murong Zhixiu paced back and forth anxiously.

"We'll kill them all sooner or later!" Gu Chi's eyes immediately turned cold. She didn't expect that Lian Su and the others would be desperate and point their spearheads at the people around her.

She shattered the ice and snow on her body and said coldly, "Let's go out and take a look around to see who wants to deal with me!"
