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

"Geng Jin" originates from the Heavenly Stems and represents Yang Metal, the most rigid and masculine of all. It represents austerity, change, and an indestructible, sharp aura. Among the Five Elements, Geng Jin represents the ultimate metal, the ultimate sharpness!

This ball of divine flame in front of me at this moment.

Like a ball of liquid gold that is constantly flowing and burning, the light is not scorching, but extremely dazzling, making it impossible to look directly at it. The swaying flame does not jump like ordinary flames, but is like billions of tiny golden lights as thin as needle tips that are constantly blooming. Under the sharp edge, even the surrounding space seems to be cut through.

This is the Gengjin Divine Flame.

It is said that it was formed from the original power when the world was first created. It represents "sharpness", "cutting" and "strength" in the world. It is an extremely precious divine fire, and the most recent wisp appeared tens of thousands of years ago.

At least, after observing it with the technique of observing the source, Gu Xiu found that this was indeed a group of extremely pure source, even much purer than most of the treasures he had seen.

At this moment, Gu Xiu's eyes changed.

This is a true treasure.

Its rarity is no less than the Jiuxiao Lingxi Crystal that Gu Xiu had seen before, and is even more precious, because this thing has been hard to find in the world for tens of thousands of years. It is rumored to have long been extinct and is hard to find in the world anymore.

And this fire has a huge effect.

Soul lamps can be used for body refining, alchemy, and weapon refining, and no matter what they are used for, they can definitely be called a luxury.

but.

What really made Gu Xiu's eyes change was not that the Gengjin Divine Flame was rare and powerful enough, but because the Gengjin Divine Flame was actually one of the alternatives for Gu Xiu to ignite his own soul lamp.

The reason why it is an alternative.

This was because Gu Xiu had seen this fire being used by someone in those ten thousand years.

only……

When this fire was born, it should have been thousands of years ago, and it should have been placed in the Tianyuan Sword Sect.

What does it mean to appear now?

Was it in that timeline of ten thousand years that this person gave the Gengjin Divine Flame to the Tianyuan Sword Sect?

Or is this person from the Tianyuan Sword Sect?

At this moment, a lot of doubts came to mind, especially the speculation about the person in front of him, which became more and more confusing.

He is very powerful, and is related to the dark window but not forcedly. He can talk to the woman in the sedan chair, play chess with the Master, and even has some connection with the Tianyuan Sword Sect. But this person has been to the Sanyuan Sinhai.

So what is his origin and identity?

The black-robed man clearly noticed Gu Xiu's doubts, but he had no intention of explaining them to Gu Xiu. He simply said:

"You have gained a lot this time."

"The Xuanwu body can be used to completely refine the puppet, and the shield transformed from the Xuanwu essence can also be used to refine it into a divine weapon shield. Now I will add a wisp of divine fire to you. I think these things will be enough for you to digest for a while."

"My purpose is also very simple."

"I need to borrow your Immortal Ascension Stone Steps temporarily. I will perform some tricks on it and protect you along the way. As for my tricks, you can rest assured that I will not harm you, nor do I want to."

"Quite the opposite."

"I'm actually very curious about you."

"Curious?" Gu Xiu was a little confused as he met the other person's gaze. "Curious about what? Fuyuan?"

"No, although I long for Fuyuan, this kind of power is not something that people in this world can truly utilize. For me, it is useful, but not directly useful." The man in black robe shook his head.

Gu Xiu was puzzled. He was a little bit unconvinced, but now it seemed that he had no choice but to believe it.

This person doesn't want to deceive himself.

but……

Throughout his journey, many people have focused on the blessings in his body. Even Jiang Xun, an immortal from the upper realm, came to this world to seek the blessings. He thought this person was the same, but he didn't expect that he actually had other purposes?

"What are you curious about?" Gu Xiu couldn't help but ask.

"No rush." ​​The black-robed man shook his head. "First, light the soul lamp and survive your fifth lamp-lighting tribulation. I'm curious about this tribulation."

Curious about this lighting disaster?

Lighting up the seven emotional tribulations, he had now overcome the previous four tribulations of joy, anger, sorrow, and fear, and only the final three tribulations of love, hate, and desire remained.

The next one.

It's a love disaster.

Is the other party curious about this?

"Don't worry, I have never harbored any ill will towards you. No matter what my plans are or what my choices are, I may indeed exploit your karma and blessings, but I personally have no ill will towards you."

"on the contrary."

"Actually, if I had the chance, I'd rather be friends with you. We have a lot in common. If not... we could probably become close friends who could talk about anything."

The other party spoke again, his tone was sincere, and even the fluctuations of his soul did not make it possible to tell that he was lying.

Facing the other person's gaze, Gu Xiu had a vague guess in his mind.

But soon, he suppressed this speculation, and his expression did not change at all. He just concentrated and looked carefully at the Gengjin Divine Fire in front of him. After a moment, he reached out and took the Gengjin Divine Fire.

No matter who this person is, no matter what his purpose is.

But at least, the other party did give him this opportunity for free, so Gu Xiu naturally had no reason to refuse.

Of course, he was not completely defenseless. The moment he took over the Gengjin Divine Fire, Gu Xiu's mind was already extremely alert, and he even borrowed the power of Zifu to detect the Gengjin Divine Fire.

Only after checking inside and out for a long time and confirming that the other party had not done anything to it did Gu Xiu really put away the divine fire.

He did not try to light the soul lamp right away.

But turn your head.

He looked at the Xuanwu body, or rather, he looked at the stone steps that were firmly grasped in the Xuanwu body's hands.

After thinking for a moment, Gu Xiu nodded and made a gesture of invitation.

The man in black robe did not refuse. He stepped forward and came to the stone steps. It was not known whether this man caused the stone steps to be afraid or what, but when he walked out, the stone steps that were originally tightly grasped by the Black Tortoise's body began to tremble violently, struggling desperately, trying to break free from the restraints of the Black Tortoise's body.

"Little guy, you have some intelligence, so you should know that leaking information is not a good habit." The man in black robe chuckled and said.

The stone steps were still vibrating violently, even making a buzzing sound. Gu Xiu listened carefully. Although he couldn't understand what the other party was saying, he could vaguely feel that the stone steps seemed to be threatening the man in black robe.

The black-robed man was not panicked at all, but smiled:

"Actually, I'm helping you. There's a lot of spiritual energy in front of your Immortal Staircase, which is extremely dangerous to you. Regardless of whether your master will be driven away by this overwhelming spiritual energy after descending here, even if not, you will definitely feel uncomfortable."

Driven away by spiritual energy?

Immortals do not use spiritual energy and even regard it as highly toxic.

Could it be that this sentence, which I saw in an ancient secret book that is thousands of years old, is true?

Gu Xiu speculated in his heart.

However, the stone steps leading to immortality were still struggling desperately. The man in black robe tried to comfort it several times, but seeing that there was no effect, he simply stopped. Instead, he pinched the magic formula in his hand, and suddenly one after another extremely powerful original Tao rhyme fell from the sky, like petals, floating down one by one.

In the blink of an eye, the stone steps leading to the immortal world were surrounded by water, and it naturally struggled desperately and crashed madly.

It's a pity that I was never able to break through it at all.

On the contrary, as time went by, the movement of the stone steps became smaller and smaller.

Gu Xiu looked for a while and then looked away, but he did not choose to light the soul lamp. Instead, he turned his head and looked at the Xuanwu body standing in front of him.

This is the strongest physical body in this world.

Previously, he wanted to kill him, and even beat Gu Xiu so hard that he could only dodge and retreat. However, because of the help of that "kind-hearted" Supreme, or because of the more powerful external enemy, the Immortal Stone Steps, this Xuanwu body was confused and completed the last step of the puppet control technique.

Now standing in front of Gu Xiu, he no longer had any hostility. Puppet threads connected from all parts of the Xuanwu's body to Gu Xiu's Immortal Dao Platform, unable to break free at all.

With a pinch of the magic formula in his hand, the Xuanwu body immediately stood beside Gu Xiu and took a stance.

Afterwards, Gu Xiu’s soul sank into the Immortal Palace, and he activated the Purple Palace in the Immortal Palace, causing it to burst out with bursts of purple mist that enveloped his body.

After doing all this, Gu Xiu looked at the Gengjin divine flame.

Although the man in black robe does not seem to have any hostility at the moment, there is still a considerable risk in lighting a soul lamp in front of a stranger.

Therefore, Gu Xiu also needs to make the necessary preparations.

And now, with the dual protection of Xuanwu's physical body and Zifu, although he is not sure that he can stop this mysterious man in black, it can at least make him alert.

everything's ready.

Gu Xiu finally stopped hesitating and officially activated the Gengjin Divine Flame, lighting the fifth soul lamp in his sea of ​​consciousness!
