I am a winner with Chinese poetry

Chapter 199: Change of Shape

Then, the light suddenly became extremely strong. After a dazzling flash of light, a lifelike shadow of a peach tree suddenly appeared. Gu Yunzhou understood that this new literary skill was brought about by this poem.

This literary skill is very interesting. Gu Yunzhou himself named it "Shapeshifting".

This technique is extremely magical and can replace the selected target at will. However, there is one limitation, that is, the distance between the replaced target and the caster cannot exceed ten meters around the caster.

Furthermore, whether it was a lifeless dead object or a living creature, it could be the target of the Transfiguration. However, compared to dead objects, replacing living things was not so easy, as the difficulty would increase with the strength of the living creature itself.

But even so, no one can deny that this is an extremely practical literary skill! Especially in critical moments of life and death, or fierce confrontations with the enemy, it is like a life-saving straw, a life-saving skill!

It’s a pity that this is not the best time to delve into this skill. Although he is itching to do so, Gu Yunzhou can only suppress this impulse and endure it for the time being.

So, he took a deep breath, took another step, and walked forward with determination. Just as the poem suddenly burst forth with a dazzling green light that shot straight into the sky, the surrounding scene had undergone a drastic transformation. Nine spirits emitting a faint green light hovered not far ahead. It seemed he had passed this level, and not only that, but with a high score. Cui Hu's poem was a dimensionality-reducing blow.

Although it is only four short sentences, it is called a classic because it is catchy and has unique aesthetics. Every word is just right and full of the unique beauty of the Chinese people.

"The harvest this time is quite good. I wonder how Liunian and the others are doing?" Gu Yunzhou muttered to himself as he put the nine literary spirits into the Wen Palace.

Meanwhile, Jiang Liunian and the others Gu Yunzhou cared about were faring far less well. Jiang Liunian resolutely embarked on the path inscribed with the word "chess," while Zhu Chenxu chose the path marked with the word "book." As for Wu Ke, she didn't even make it to that level before being sent to another level by the Book Mountain Sacred Land, parting ways with the others.

Since everyone chooses a different path, their progress in passing the level is naturally very different. Let’s talk about Jiang Liunian first. Although he has some talent in chess and has already achieved a mastery of it, facing the numerous difficulties and obstacles in this holy land of books, he ultimately failed at the last critical moment and was tragically eliminated.

It must be said that the difficulty of the levels set by the Book Mountain Holy Land is truly not to be underestimated! In comparison, Zhu Chenxu's situation was slightly more optimistic. After a strenuous effort, he finally managed to make it through the current level. Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. When faced with the next level, he also suffered a Waterloo and returned home empty-handed.

Just like that, the original three-person team was reduced to Gu Yunzhou alone. He was standing quietly in front of the sixth checkpoint, his brows furrowed and his face solemn, showing that his master was not at peace.

Not far from him, a celestial-like precious tree stood majestically. It emanated a soft and captivating pale yellow glow, a mystical light passed down from ancient times, illuminating the surrounding space with a dreamlike quality.

Looking closely, the branches were laden with more than a dozen vibrant, golden-hued exotic fruits. They were neither large nor small, roughly the size of an adult's palm, but the light they emitted was dazzling, its radiance seeming to embody endless vitality and energy.

Just by getting slightly closer, one could smell a faint, alluring fruity aroma. It was refreshing and pleasant, like the sweet scent of blooming flowers in spring, intoxicating. With just a gentle inhale, one felt a refreshing breeze flow through their noses and into their brains, instantly making them feel refreshed, as if all fatigue had vanished.

Gu Yunzhou took a closer look and was pleasantly surprised—it turned out to be the legendary Earth-level treasure, the "Rejuvenating Fruit"! This treasure is extremely rare, and its efficacy is extraordinary. It has always been warmly welcomed and deeply loved by all the women of the Tianxing Continent. You should know that the price of each Rejuvenating Fruit at auction varies greatly depending on the year it was grown and the medicinal properties it contains.

The anti-aging fruit on the tree before Gu Yunzhou was initially estimated to be at least a hundred years old. This meant that if carefully refined by a skilled pharmacist, it would eventually transform into a miraculous anti-aging elixir capable of preserving a person's appearance for three hundred years!

Imagine if people outside knew that there was such a precious, century-old anti-aging fruit tree hidden in this holy land of Shushan, I'm afraid that any woman would be unable to contain her excitement after hearing the news?

Gu Yunzhou was feeling a bit of a headache. While he wasn't desperate for the Rejuvenating Fruit, it was incredibly expensive. More importantly, it was the key to passing this level. But the current situation was causing him considerable trouble—a massive, snow-white, three-meter-long snake was entwined beneath the Rejuvenating Fruit tree! The serpent would periodically spit out its scarlet tongue, as if asserting its sovereignty.

It was obvious at first glance that this anti-aging fruit tree was someone's own cabbage. If he dared to snatch the food from the tiger's mouth, the snake would probably take a bite and make him the other party's dinner.

This was obviously a snake demon with a high level of cultivation. He just didn't know if he could defeat it. From the cold look in its eyes that locked onto him, Gu Yunzhou knew that any sneak attack was wishful thinking. As soon as he entered this level, the snake demon had already discovered him.

At this moment, Gu Yunzhou seemed to have only one option left—a desperate fight! He only regretted that his good companions, who had fought alongside him on a daily basis, hadn't arrived in time to gather here. If they could gather together, the three of them could join forces to fight the snake demon, their chances of victory would undoubtedly increase significantly.

Fortunately, after a long period of training and experience, Gu Yunzhou now has mastered quite a few literary skills. He has even mastered several of them, and through continuous practice, he has mastered some of the commonly used literary skills to perfection.
