Chapter 184 Retreat
"If you ask me, we should just go all out and refine them into ashes." Murong Zhixiu said.
Gu Chi shook his head and said, "If we keep them alive now, we can use them to threaten the forces behind them. If we really kill them, Lao Hei and I will definitely face crazy retaliation from the forces behind them. I don't have the strength to fight them to the death yet."
She took the black gold coffin back and said, "Find me a quiet place. Lao Hei and I need to retreat for a while and improve our strength as soon as possible."
Murong Zhixiu was not vague and led them to Nanzhangzhou that day. This oasis was thousands of miles in radius and was the territory of his grandfather Murong Jingzhao.
The fourteen thieves in the north each have a base to ensure that they can gain a foothold in the north. For example, Long Jun’s base is Bi Bo Ze, Li Daoxuan’s base is in the Yuhuang Mountain area, and Murong Jingzhao’s base is Nan Zhangzhou.
"It's understandable that the Dragon King is not afraid of being attacked since he commands thousands of demon tribes in the north. But you don't have as much power as him. Aren't you afraid of being attacked?" Gu Chi asked curiously.
"Although we don't have as much power as Sixth Master, we have been able to gain a foothold in the northern border for so long, so we are actually not much different." Murong Zhixiu replied.
After a pause, he continued, "Even if someone really captures my grandfather's Nanzhangzhou, unless they kill all of my grandfather's minions, they will face our crazy revenge at all costs."
Although the forces formed by the Fourteen Thieves in the North cannot directly compete with those ancient and transcendent forces, if they really want to fight to the death, they will not be able to break through without paying a heavy price.
In Murong Zhixiu's words, if you want to fight me to the death, even if I can't kill you, I can still skin you and break some of your bones.
The Fourteen Thieves are not afraid of wearing shoes when they are barefoot. At worst, they are finished, and they don’t have too many concerns. But those powerful and transcendent forces with ancient heritage have to consider the gains and losses.
If you seriously damage your own vitality in order to eliminate the Fourteen Thieves, you may be taken advantage of by other hostile forces.
Therefore, over the years, although those transcendental forces hated the Fourteen Thieves to the core, no force dared to fight them to the death.
Murong Zhixiu chose a place with beautiful mountains and rivers for them, and Gu Chi and Lao Hei went into seclusion directly.
A full month passed, and both the man and the dog were immersed in a mysterious state.
Gu Chi silently practiced the Jindan stage mental method in the "Luoshu General Outline" and felt all kinds of incredible things.
In the universe inside her body, it seemed as if three thousand gods and Buddhas were chanting, and it seemed as if the sacrificial sounds of ancient ancestors were coming through time and space, very ethereal.
Some people believe that this is the "me" living in the past, chanting for the "me" in this life.
Of course, most cultivators do not agree with the theory of reincarnation, believing that it is their own Taoist body that is capturing the trajectory of the great Dao between heaven and earth.
Regardless of whether it was the "dead self" or the "Tao self", over the past month, the blood and energy in Gu Chi's body were like dragons, swirling and dancing. She listened to the vague and vast sound of the Tao in her body, and her body was shining brightly.
In the second month, the Jindan stage mental method recorded in the "Luoshu General Outline" stopped working, and the essence of heaven and earth in this area turned into magnificent rivers and surged in, completely submerging Gu Chi's retreat.
It lasted for half a month. Then, with a loud "boom", rocks flew through the air. Gu Chi stood up, and two blazing dragon-shaped rays of light shot out of his eyes.
Her long black hair flowed like a waterfall, and she stood tall. She could feel a powerful force in her body, as if she could punch a hole in the world with just one punch.
She clenched her fists, feeling the overwhelming power, and swung them lightly, causing the surrounding void to vibrate and hum.
On top of a verdant sacred peak, a thousand-meter-long waterfall cascades down, rumbling like thousands of horses galloping. Gu Chi stands in the pool under the waterfall, resisting the impact of the water flow, and punches upwards, and the long waterfall immediately flows backwards!
"Damn! After two and a half months of seclusion, he has already reached the sixth step from the third step of the early Jindan stage. What a freak." Murong Zhixiu was amazed on a mountain in the distance.
In his opinion, crossing three levels in two and a half months is not a very fast cultivation speed, but it is definitely not slow.
Gu Chi lifted a huge rock weighing tens of thousands of pounds high up in one hand, and then threw it out with great force. The huge rock turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the sky.
A flock of wild geese happened to fly by and were all knocked down.
"Woof, woof, woof..."
In the distance, a burst of angry dog barking came from the mountains more than 20 miles away. Lao Hei, who was basking in the sun, was hit by a huge rock falling from the sky.
It came out of seclusion half a month earlier than Gu Chi, but its cultivation level also reached the sixth stage of the early Golden Core stage.
Seeing Lao Hei's deflated look, Murong Zhixiu couldn't help laughing.
"Woof! Did you do it?!" Lao Hei followed the sound of laughter and locked onto Murong Zhixiu, then turned into a beam of black light and rushed towards him at high speed.
"No, what does it have to do with me!" Murong Zhixiu shouted and quickly flew away.
On the other side, Gu Chi stood in the pool under the thousand-meter waterfall, facing the impact of the water and punching upwards. Murong Zhixiu, who was fleeing, saw this scene and immediately turned around and flew over. He raised his hand and offered a Yin-Yang Bagua mirror, shouting, "Sister Qianhe, let me test your current strength!"
As he spoke, the Yin-Yang Bagua Mirror fell down like a mountain.
"when"
Gu Chi threw a punch, which collided with the Yin-Yang Bagua Mirror. With a crisp "crack" sound, the bronze mirror quickly cracked and then shattered in the air.
Dazzling divine aura shot up into the sky, and a powerful energy wave raged in all directions, causing several surrounding mountains to rumble and shake, but Gu Chi stood still.
"Fuck! Sister Qianhe, could you please be a little gentler when you attack me? My baby!" Murong Zhixiu was heartbroken. Although he had a lot of spiritual weapons and magic tools on him, he still felt bad when one of them was smashed so casually.
"I don't think you need any weapons. This pair of fists is far better than any other soldier!" Murong Zhixiu gave him an envious look.
"I'm short of spirit stones. Can you lend me some?" Gu Chi raised his eyebrows and smiled.
She was really short of money and spirit stones. Not only did she need spirit stones for cultivation, but she also needed a large amount of spirit stones for daily tasks such as refining weapons, refining medicine, making talismans, arranging magic arrays, etc.
Murong Zhixiu asked, "How much do you want to borrow? Let's be clear, I'm not rich myself, so I can't lend you that much."
Gu Chi asked, "Then how many spirit stones can you lend me at most?"
Murong Zhixiu thought for a long time before saying, "The most I can lend you is... a little over one cubic meter, about four thousand pounds."
