I have been bound in a forbidden place for five hundred years. Why are you crying when I am a casual

"Wow, when are we going to stop falling?"

"Gu boy, are we going to fall and get completely covered in mud?"

"I'm doomed, I'm doomed. There's nothing here, and I can't even fly. It's been so long and I still haven't landed. When I finally do land, I'm afraid I'll really be thrown to my death. I might become the first person in the world to be thrown to their death on the forging platform."

"..."

In the boundless white world, the enormous forging platform, which had already revealed its true form, was rapidly falling. Above the forging platform, Gu Xiuzheng held the Immortal Crossing Sword and the Carefree Pendant in one hand, and gripped the Shattered Star Forging Platform tightly with the other.

They are falling rapidly.

Ever since the ice lake was blasted open and Gu Xiu fell into it, he entered this strange white world. In this world, he could not see the sky when he looked up or the ground when he looked down. From the moment he entered, he was falling rapidly as if there was no end in sight.

Leaving aside Gu Xiu, who is a cultivator, the Shattered Star Sword, the Immortal Crossing Sword, and the Carefree Pendant, which are magical treasures, all have the ability to fly, so logically they shouldn't be like this.

Can be biased.

In this place, none of one's cultivation level, magic weapons, talisman power, or even divine soul power can be used. Even Gu Xiu couldn't bring the three spirits into the Three Enclosures of Sinful Sea; he could only hold them together with his hands to prevent them from separating due to their different falling speeds.

Even so, the situation remains dire.

Because it takes too long.

Gu Xiu estimated that about half an hour had passed since he entered this godforsaken place. He thought he would soon be able to touch the ground, but he did not expect that even with the weight of the Shattered Star Forging Platform, after falling for so long, he still could not see any trace of it about to hit the ground.

Below, the same unchanging and somewhat glaring white remains.

However, although they were falling and the situation was not optimistic, perhaps because they had gotten used to the long fall, apart from the broken star still howling, Gu Xiu, the Immortal Crossing Sword, and the Carefree Pendant were quite calm.

The two little ones even hopped and skipped around, chasing and playing on the broken star, completely unaware of any danger.

By the way, the green bamboo pole was also very calm.

After all, Gu Xiu fell in while holding the green bamboo pole, and he didn't have time to retrieve it either. However, the original long bamboo pole had now become a smaller section tied around Gu Xiu's waist. It was unclear whether the true form was only this small section or something else, but Gu Xiu could also see that the green bamboo pole was obviously much weaker.

Clearly, this fishing trip caused it some damage.

Even so, Qingzhugan stood tall and straight, and Gu Xiu could even sense a sense of pride and smugness emanating from him.

All of this is naturally related to the "spoils" brought by the green bamboo pole.

Speaking of which, Gu Xiu had always been curious about what the Green Bamboo Pole had caught, seeing how hard it had worked. However, based on his previous fishing experiences, it was really hard to guess what it could be. After all, the Green Bamboo Pole had caught not only magical treasures, but also materials, cultivation techniques, and even living creatures.

It's really hard to guess what it will produce.

Although Gu Xiu hoped to fish for some magical treasures to supplement his combat power, he also knew that the Green Bamboo Pole was highly random, so he could only keep hoping.

Now that he finally had time to observe, Gu Xiu couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised.

This time, it's a magic weapon!

and.

They are a pair of precious boots!

Even though in this pure white world, magical treasures are rendered useless and cultivation is unusable, it still doesn't diminish Gu Xiu's delight at the pair of precious boots.

These are a pair of precious boots with an ancient cloud pattern design.

The shoes are made of silver shards flowing from stardust, as thin as a cicada's wing yet stronger than diamond. To the naked eye, one can almost see silver patterns surging like a galaxy, with a faint purple tinge. The upper is woven like the tail feathers of a divine phoenix, a mixture of crimson gold and dark scarlet, with nine small phoenixes linked head to tail on the brocade pattern. The edges of the shoes are inlaid with fine studs, the color of crimson clouds, with celestial arrays engraved on the stud heads. To the naked eye, the array patterns are as small as grains of rice, but upon closer inspection, one can almost see the rotation of the sun and moon, and the rise and fall of mountains and rivers within the array.

Even in the place where the magic weapon had failed, it still emitted bursts of brilliant light.

Gu Xiu tried them on and was pleasantly surprised. The shoes fit perfectly and were very comfortable. Walking in them was extremely easy, and Gu Xiu even tried running and jumping and found that his movement speed had increased significantly.

You should know that you can't use your cultivation here, and all your magic treasures are ineffective.

Yet these precious boots still possess such formidable lightness and acceleration capabilities, demonstrating just how terrifying they would be if they were not suppressed.

and.

These precious boots have arrived at the perfect time.

Gu Xiu didn't have many treasures suitable for use on the battlefield to begin with. Regardless of what abilities these treasure boots would ultimately have, for now, they would certainly greatly enhance his agility on the battlefield.

He had previously acquired a pair of Earth-grade magic treasures called the Cloud-Piercing Boots, which possessed an ability called the Five Steps of Cloud-Piercing. Each step taken while activating the boots would increase his offensive power. However, after Gu Xiu's strength improved, he discovered that the Cloud-Piercing Boots' enhancement was negligible, and they had already been destroyed during the Great War of the Crimson Cloud Divine Dynasty.

Now, another pair of obviously extremely precious boots would be just right for Gu Xiu.

However, after strolling around on Sui Xing's back for a few steps in his precious boots, Gu Xiu obediently sat down again.

no way.

It hurts.

When Gu Xiu first obtained the treasure boots, the hidden attack inside caused him considerable damage.

Eight ribs were broken, his hand bones were fractured, and his meridians were also damaged to some extent. Fortunately, it seemed that because of his weakened strength, it was not fatal for Gu Xiu's physical body. However, he could not use his cultivation now, and he could not even take out any pills. There was no way to treat his injuries, so he could only move as little as possible like an ordinary person.

"What kind of being is that, capable of harming me through a bamboo pole?" Rubbing his chest and enduring the pain of broken bones, Gu Xiu couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

But before he could figure that out, Gu Xiu remembered another important matter.

The precious boots I had just put on were taken off again.

Place it in front of you and observe it carefully.

"Since they could leave a way to kill me on the boots, there's no guarantee they won't have other methods left on them. Although I can't use my cultivation right now, so I might not be able to use such methods, what if we leave this place?"

"If we want to be on the safe side, we should keep some tricks up our sleeves. At the very least, we should make sure that this magic weapon can be used by us and recognizes its master."

Gu Xiu observed and pondered at the same time.

This wasn't the first time Gu Xiu had used the green bamboo pole. Based on his past experience, anything caught by the green bamboo pole, whether owned or not, would have its connection forcibly severed and become his possession. However, since that being could injure him through the green bamboo pole, Gu Xiu had to be even more careful.

Fortunately.

After examining it thoroughly, Gu Xiu confirmed that the magic weapon was indeed unclaimed. However, Gu Xiu did not relax his vigilance; instead, he became even more cautious. The more carefully he examined it, the more uneasy he felt.

There are some unreasonable aspects to these shoes.

He couldn't quite put his finger on what was illogical about it, but he had a vague feeling that there was something on it that didn't belong to these precious boots.

This is a potential hazard!

As a forging master, Sui Xing was very experienced in this area. After hearing Gu Xiu's caution, he gave advice: "I don't see anything wrong either, but your caution is correct. Don't you have special forging techniques? Why don't you try tapping it and knocking away what you feel is wrong?"

Forging tools?

Gu Xiu frowned. In this place, he couldn't even use spiritual weapons and magic treasures. Even though the forging method of the Dust Refining technique was different, it would still be restricted in this pure white space. At least he had been using the Dust Observation method for a long time and hadn't come up with a good solution.

but……

"Since the method of observing dust cannot be used, what about the technique of observing the source?" Gu Xiu thought to himself, and immediately tried to activate his own divine officer. His cultivation was restricted, and he could not even do internal vision. It was not easy to activate the divine officer.

But the good thing is.

In order to create this divine official, Gu Xiu consumed a large amount of Nine Heavens Spirit Crystals. After using these crystals, not only was a new divine palace opened up, but Gu Xiu himself was also nourished by the Nine Heavens Spirit Crystals day and night.

Now that he had cleared his mind and calmed down, even though he hadn't opened the Divine Palace, a special feeling arose in Gu Xiu's heart. He immediately closed his eyes, but even with his eyes closed, he could still "see" everything around him.

However, this is not the world seen with the naked eye, but a world constructed from countless colorful points of light.

This is the world seen through the art of observing the source, and it is also an important basis for understanding that all things are composed of a source.

Gu Xiu wasn't currently investigating whether the creation of all things from a source was real or not; he was simply focusing his attention on the precious boots in front of him.

These precious boots are indeed powerful. Using the Origin Observation Technique, the source they are composed of is even more powerful and its arrangement is even more complex. Even Gu Xiu couldn't quite understand it. Gu Xiu then looked at the Shattered Star, the Immortal Crossing Sword, and the Carefree Pendant and found that the source of these precious boots was even more powerful than that of them.

Gu Xiu also glanced at the green bamboo pole and found that it was indeed more powerful than its opponent, but it looked like a bamboo pole that had been broken in the middle and was not complete.

Now that we can observe the source, the next step is naturally to use this technique to see the structure of the treasure boots and find a way to make them recognize their owner. Cultivation levels and magical artifacts are all sealed here, but the fact that Shattered Star and the others can still move and speak indicates that the magical artifacts aren't truly and completely sealed; they simply cannot be used.

But a magic weapon is still a magic weapon; as long as a suitable breakthrough is found, the blood-binding ceremony can be completed.

From another perspective, it's actually a good thing that Gu Xiu is in this place now.

After all, since ancient times, the more powerful a magical artifact is, the more difficult it is to make it recognize its master. Even though this magical boot has not yet given birth to a spirit, it is not something that just anyone can easily complete by dripping blood to recognize its master. On the contrary, even unowned magical artifacts have their own set of testing methods.

When cultivators choose magical artifacts, the artifacts are also choosing their masters.

Gu Xiu initially doubted whether he could successfully bind this extraordinary boot to its master, but now, because of the fact that all the magical artifact's abilities were sealed off in this place, it meant that the magical artifact was now completely defenseless in binding him to its master!

really.

After searching for a while, Gu Xiu indeed found the key area on the intricately crafted "Source" boots that had recognized its master, and his eyes lit up immediately:

"So your name is Skywalker?"

"Got you!"
