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

"This Xuanwu body is so terrifying. It clearly has no consciousness and no rules, but it can force me into this situation just by relying on its physical instincts?"

"That's it. It's just a body that was shed and no longer needed."

"It's hard to imagine how terrifying the true form of Xuanwu would be."

"..."

Before Guan Xuelan "helped" Qing Zun, Gu Xiu was caught in an unprecedented hard battle.

He had experienced countless battles in his life, whether it was the Battle of the Prodigies five hundred years ago, or the endless killing in the forbidden area during those five hundred years, or the battles he encountered along the way five hundred years later, it was no exaggeration to say that he had experienced hundreds of battles.

But now this battle.

It was definitely a very special battle for him.

A pure body without consciousness, without cultivation and magic power, and without spiritual skills.

But...

He was beaten back step by step, and could only dodge and move, constantly trying every possible way to avoid. Facing the constant attacks of the Xuanwu body, even Gu Xiu, who had many tricks up his sleeve, felt helpless for the first time.

"Is there no other choice but to retreat?"

"But are you just going to give up this Xuanwu body like that?"

"besides……"

"That stone stairway to immortality, although I don't know what it is, I have a feeling that it must contain a huge secret."

"I'm not willing to accept this..."

Gu Xiu murmured to himself, his brows already tightly furrowed. He was actually unwilling to retreat like this, but given the current situation, it seemed that there was no other way but to retreat.

"The origin of this place has been stripped away, and it will soon be destroyed. I am running out of time. The current situation is that I can no longer seize the opportunity here, so I will give it up for now. If there is another opportunity in the future, I can come here again to take it."

finally.

Gu Xiu still made a decision.

Since nothing can be done, just evacuate as soon as possible and then proceed slowly.

Just at this moment, the Black Tortoise's physical body attacked again, rushing towards him like a stream of light. If it were before, Gu Xiu would immediately take action to avoid the attack, but this time, he did not choose to do so. Instead, he still stood in place, lowered his body slightly, and stared at the Black Tortoise's physical body that was getting closer and closer.

His physical strength was completely crushed by the Xuanwu body. If he wanted to escape, he could just turn around and run away, but it would be impossible to escape.

He needs to create chances.

Create one that can temporarily delay Xuanwu's physical body and give yourself an opportunity to take advantage of the force!

"Ten feet!"

"Five feet!"

"Three feet!"

“…Now!”

When he saw the Black Tortoise's physical body approaching within ten feet of him, Gu Xiu finally stopped, stepped heavily on the ground, and rushed forward instantly. However, while rushing out, Gu Xiu suddenly lowered his body, changed his charge into a shovel, and with his other hand, he had already taken out several formation flags.

It is difficult to trap Xuanwu's body with a formation, but Gu Xiu did not expect to trap it. He only needed to get close to it and trigger the formation, which would buy him five breaths of time.

only……

Just as the formation flag was about to fly out of his hand, a violent wave like an ocean wave suddenly hit. The terrifying power that should not exist in this world was like a huge mountain, causing Gu Xiu to instantly give up controlling the formation. Instead, he used all his strength to mobilize the power of his physical body and blood, as well as his whole body cultivation to transform into a shield, intending to resist the strange wave.

This was the power of the Immortal Stone Stairs. Gu Xiu knew very well that such power would require him to use all his strength to barely block it. Otherwise, after this blow, let alone escape, even survival would be a problem.

Gu Xiu's reaction was quick enough, but it was beyond his expectations.

Just when he was ready to face the terrible impact, a shield that looked like a tortoise shell suddenly fell from the sky and stood in front of him.

"Boom~!"

The huge wave finally hit, and everyone around was swept away and flew backwards. Even the Xuanwu Gate that had blocked everyone before made a loud creaking sound at this moment, as if it could not bear it.

Even Gu Xiu couldn't help but twitch his eyelids when he saw it. He knew that the power of the Immortal Stone Stairs was extremely terrifying, so he made all preparations at the first time. But what he didn't expect was that he had obviously been very wary of this power, but now it seems that he still underestimated it.

one strike!

Just one blow!

In the space behind the Xuanwu Gate, no one could stand there intact. No matter whether it was the strong man from the Dark Window, the strong man from the Demon Clan, or the two people from the Three Immortals Island, they all fell to the ground at this moment, their faces pale and in great pain.

Obviously seriously injured.

On the contrary, Gu Xiu himself couldn't help but look blankly at the tortoise shell that looked like a shield and was formed by the original power of the Black Tortoise standing in front of him. He then looked at the Black Tortoise's physical body that was holding the Black Tortoise shield and blocking in front of him.

Lost in thought.

What is going on?

Just now, this Xuanwu body that seemed to want to kill him on the spot seemed to be suddenly stimulated by something, and actually took the initiative to help him block this terrifying wave?

However, before Gu Xiu could figure out what was going on.

That terrifying force unexpectedly attacked again. Turning his head, he saw that it was the stone steps that led to immortality, rushing towards him again, and even a terrifying immortal light burst out from it.

but……

"Bang~!"

When the stone steps were about to fall towards Gu Xiu, the black tortoise body once again carried the black tortoise shield and blocked the stone steps. Not only did it block the attack, the black tortoise body also took direct action and pressed down on the stone steps.

Followed by.

He grabbed the basalt shield and smashed it down on the stone steps leading to the immortal world.

The stone steps to immortality seemed to have a spirit. Instead of passively taking the beating, they kept struggling and colliding. In the blink of an eye, a fierce fight broke out in front of Gu Xiu.

Gu Xiu was a little confused.

I don't understand what's going on.

The only thing he could see was that the Immortal Stone Stairs seemed to want to kill him, but the Black Tortoise's body that seemed to want to destroy him just now, for some reason, protected him instead and tried its best to resist the Immortal Stone Stairs that kept attacking him!

The scene changed so quickly that even the knowledgeable Gu Xiu was full of questions.

On the other side.

Guan Xuelan, who had just gotten up from the ground in a panic, was listening to Qing Xiao's roar:

"idiot!"

"You idiot!"

"What are you doing? Look what you've done."

"I told you to stay out of other people's business and not to act rashly. Look at what you've done. Not only did you fail to erase your traces, but you also allowed this Immortal Stone Stairway to absorb the spiritual power in your soul bottle, temporarily gaining your own will!"

"Do you know that you are in trouble? You are in huge trouble!!!"
