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

well? ? ?

Why is this different from what I imagined?

Su Zhenyue's face froze.

But at this moment, even though she was a little surprised, she still tried to maintain that gentle smile:

"As long as Brother Guan doesn't despise me, that's all that matters. Speaking of which, Brother Guan's strength is indeed beyond my expectations. I've only seen this ultimate physical strength in ancient books, but I've always been skeptical. But now that I've met Brother Guan, I truly understand that the ancient physical cultivators recorded in ancient books are indeed powerful."

"It's just luck. I'm still far from the level that can be recorded in ancient books." Gu Xiu shook his head.

It's not that I'm being modest.

The more you practice, the more you understand the horror of physical cultivation.

He is currently only at the Spiritual Essence Realm in terms of body refinement, but even without using his cultivation, he is still strong enough to defeat a Void Refining expert. Although this Void Refining expert did not fight desperately, Gu Xiu also has some strength left. One cannot imagine how terrifying it would be if he could reach the next few levels.

"Brother Guan, why are you being so modest? The physical cultivators recorded in ancient texts may indeed be powerful, but not everyone can reach the level of mastery you have achieved." Su Zhenyue shook her head. "At least, the Rāhu Prison Tribulation that you overcame is extremely rare even among physical cultivators. This shows how great your potential is in this area."

Gu Xiu simply shook his head at this and looked at the azure dragon. "I am indeed flattered that Fairy Su is optimistic about it, but now is probably not the time to discuss this."

This served as a reminder to everyone.

Look sideways.

The dragon was seen staring at the situation here.

Junior Brother Gao, who was dragged back to the edge of the pond and used as food, could no longer shout. His body was completely broken, and his soul had not yet dissipated, but it was obviously in danger.

It could vanish into thin air at any moment.

Of course, no one cared about this senior brother Gao. What everyone cared more about was what to do next.

The pool of water is the only way to continue deeper into the Canglong Secret Realm, and it is impossible to bypass it no matter what.

Want to go deeper.

First, we have to find a way to get through the pool.

"Brother Guan, do you have a chance of defeating the dragon?" Su Zhenyue asked.

As soon as these words were spoken, the azure dragon over there immediately stared at Gu Xiu with extreme vigilance. It had been watching the situation on the field and naturally saw how powerful this human was.

Under the dragon's gaze, Gu Xiu glanced at him and nodded.

"Have."

"Roar!" Instantly, an angry roar was heard. The dragon was obviously dissatisfied with Gu Xiu's answer. Its eyeballs, which were as big as cold star lanterns, were filled with tremendous anger at this moment.

"only……"

Gu Xiu changed the subject and looked at Su Zhenyue with a smile: "Why should I help you?"

As soon as these words came out, Su Zhenyue frowned.

It is now clear that there is a realm suppression ahead. If nothing unexpected happens, everyone's cultivation will be suppressed when approaching the pool. Among all the people present, the only one who has a chance of winning is Gu Xiu. He is a physical cultivator himself, and these suppressions that would form on Taoist cultivators would certainly not have much impact on him.

Considering his ability to easily beat the Void Refining Master into a state of losing his temper, he is the most likely person to pass through this pool and even kill the dragon.

but……

Why should he help Sanxian Island?

This is a secret realm. To be honest, they will inevitably become competitors in the future. Even if he is a good person and is willing to help those who may become enemies in the future, he is also a member of Taihang Academy. Although the conflict just now was interrupted, the contradiction between the two sides has already arisen.

If he wasn't willing to help, no one would be able to find fault.

"Brother Guan, why don't you put forward some conditions?" Su Zhenyue felt a little unwilling, but she could only take the initiative to ask.

"As for the conditions..." Gu Xiu didn't refuse outright. He just glanced at everyone in Penglai one by one and said, "I'm not good at making conditions, and I'm even worse at asking for a higher price. After all, I just took your spear, Fairy Su. How about this? I won't make it difficult for you. Fairy Su, you can just give me some compensation as you see fit."

"What's important isn't what I want, but what Fairy Su thinks your people are worth."

"what do you think?"

He still seemed very polite, and even gave the choice to Su Zhenyue.

But when Su Zhenyue heard this, she couldn't help but secretly curse this man in her heart for being greedy, and she didn't seem like a gentleman from Taihang Academy at all.

It seems that it is up to you, there is no need to force it.

but……

What is it that makes one's own people worth?

If I give too little, doesn't that mean that the people of Penglai Island are worthless?

But if I give too much...

But I couldn't help feeling reluctant.

This guy is so cunning!

"One day or another, I'm going to take back everything you took from me, with interest!"

"You wait!"

Although she appeared calm on the surface, Su Zhenyue couldn't help but curse secretly in her heart.

However, she could only hide these curses in her heart. She couldn't even show the slightest dissatisfaction on her face. She could only grit her teeth in her heart, but on the surface, she still took out two peaches from her arms with a calm expression:

"This is the peach unique to Penglai. It is extremely difficult to grow and bear fruit, and the effect is extraordinary."

"Although Brother Guan, as a physical cultivator, has a longer lifespan than ordinary cultivators and probably doesn't need these longevity peaches, I think Brother Guan wouldn't refuse to extend his lifespan too much, right?"

"Moreover, if this item is given as a gift to someone, it would be considered an excellent treasure."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present couldn't help but be attracted by the peaches. Everyone with a discerning eye knew how precious this thing was. Moreover, even on the Penglai Fairy Island, such peaches were definitely not available for unlimited taking. You have to know that Su Zhenyue's master had only given one peach to each of the supreme beings.

This time I will give two directly, no matter how precious or important they are.

In fact, it’s not that low.

but……

"Just these two peaches?" There was no joy on Gu Xiu's face. He just asked calmly. At the end, he looked up at the group of monks from Penglai Island.

Although he didn't say anything.

But the meaning is obvious.

There are so many of you, but you are only worth two peaches?

"Of course..." Su Zhenyue's face froze, but she still said:

"of course not!"

"Oh?" Gu Xiu smiled: "Anything else?"

Su Zhenyue stopped talking and took out a small medicine bottle that looked extremely delicate from her arms. After hesitating for a moment, she poured out a pill from it.

This pill is pink all over, with fine lines on it. It looks so beautiful that people are reluctant to eat it.

The most unique thing is.

The moment this pill was taken out, a faint peach blossom fragrance immediately filled the air around. Just one breath made people feel as if they were soaring into the sky. All the fatigue and tiredness in the body were swept away in an instant, and it even seemed as if their lifespan was increased at this moment.

"This pill is called the Green Emperor's Heaven Returning Pill. It uses my Penglai Ten Thousand Years Peach as the main ingredient, supplemented by a large amount of natural treasures and rare divine medicines."

"If you take this pill at any time, you can maintain your youthful appearance and extend your life by a thousand years."

"But the most important thing is, if you take this pill when you're seriously injured, no matter how severe your injuries are, even if you've already stepped into Hades' Palace, even if you have a high level of cultivation, even a supreme level, you can rely on this pill to recover instantly!"

Having said that, Su Zhenyue hesitated again, and then handed the pill away with a look of heartache in her eyes.

Gu Xiu didn't hesitate and immediately reached out to take it.

This is good stuff!

Simply increasing one's lifespan by a thousand years is an extremely precious item for countless supreme beings, and even powerful immortals. Not to mention that this pill can heal injuries. In a battle between powerful beings, it is almost equivalent to having an extra life.

Get the pill.

Gu Xiu stared at the medicine bottle in the other person's hand again.

But this time, noticing his gaze, even Su Zhenyue, who had been trying to remain calm, couldn't help but frown and said stiffly:

"This kind of elixir is extremely precious. Zhenyue hopes that Brother Guan can stop using it!"

Speaking of the back.

She was practically gritting her teeth.

It was obvious that this time's efforts really made her feel distressed.

Seeing the other party's attitude, Gu Xiu decided to stop while he was ahead.

Everything has a limit.

If you expect to extort all the treasures from someone in one go, the most likely outcome is that the other party will completely turn against you, and you may even end up in a desperate situation.

Moreover, even if he had the confidence to kill Su Zhenyue on the spot, he could not guarantee whether those treasures would remain intact after the other party died.

After all, with so many precious treasures on him, any normal sect would definitely use some means to prevent others from killing people and stealing treasures. This method is actually not common. As long as there are enough materials, Gu Xiu can even make a similar storage ring himself.

As long as you combine it with specific spells and activate the restrictions in the storage ring at the critical moment, most of the things in the ring will immediately be sucked into the turbulence of space and cannot be found.

This is a way to protect his own disciples and prevent them from being maliciously killed and robbed of treasures by masters.

and so.

If you want to get more things, it is better to let the other party give them to you on their own initiative.

After putting the things away, Gu Xiu couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I've heard before that Penglai Fairy Island is full of treasures. I didn't believe it before, but now that I've met Fairy Su, I finally understand the truth that there is no smoke without fire."

"My Penglai is indeed full of treasures. If Brother Guan is interested, I can invite you to visit my Penglai Fairy Island after this matter is over." Su Zhenyue said without forgetting her original intention, but before Gu Xiu could answer, she changed the subject in time:

"But now the reward has been paid."

"Next, Brother Guan, shouldn't you show your divine power and quickly get rid of this evil dragon blocking the road?"

Hearing this, Gu Xiu turned around and looked at the azure dragon that was still standing by the pool, staring at him vigilantly. When their eyes met, they seemed to communicate in an instant.

After a moment, Gu Xiu smiled and nodded:

"Of course!"

After saying that, he finally took a step and walked towards the pool.

Seeing him take action, everyone quickly put their thoughts aside and looked over here with great anticipation. Although there had been no confrontation yet, many people had already imagined it in their minds.

Watch the battle between Qi Yu and the terrifying dragon.

It must be a fierce and endless back and forth.

Even Su Zhenyue, who had been hit hard, temporarily put his thoughts aside and stared at Gu Xiu intently.

She was curious.

How powerful can this chess language be?

How exciting will his battle with this dragon be?

And under the watchful eyes of everyone, Gu Xiu finally took a step and completely entered the pool area that could suppress his cultivation.

only……

Just when everyone thought that the two sides were about to start a big war.

However, the dragon, which was originally aggressive and looked very murderous, suddenly paused, then suddenly crawled on the ground, opened its mouth towards Gu Xiu, and stuck out its tongue.

And then...

Wagging the tail???
