Chapter 51 - QiLing XVI]
Ch51 – [QiLing XVI]
It seemed that the relationship between human world and spiritual world was not so good. The body of the ancient tree spirit was quite huge. It was not their first time seeing this spirit. The relatively young cultivators still couldn’t help but look up.
This was also quite an old one, whose qualifications were close to Xie Yan, and the long life it had lived was unimaginable.
In a word, any branch or leaf on the tree spirit had a very good effect on the refining of immortal pills. Even if they could get a leaf, they would be crazy not to become a pharmacist.
But no one dared to think about it. The other side was on a realm below a sage.
However, just after this thought, in front of the public, they saw that the ancient tree spirit raised his hand to the young man on his shoulder, and grew a small flower with his innate ability.
It was afraid that the youth sitting on their shoulders would feel bored. After the youth took the flowers, the spirit of ancient wood took out a spirit stone from its space, grinded it into a smooth ball and gave it to him.
After receiving the flowers, Gu Huai took the ball, which had been polished to a very smooth surface, and then he lowered his head, pasted his cheek on the hand which had not been removed by the spirit of ancient wood and rubbed it, Expressing his love for the gift to the other with his body language.
He still treated the youth as a young child. The old tree spirit didn’t speak but made a deep sound. When he moved his rubbed hand, he seemed to be quite careful.
Even if they were not herbalists, many cultivators who had watched this scene also stared at the flower in the young man’s hand, with obvious envy in their eyes.
This was that youth!
Seeing that now, the cultivators who were more clever knew that the young man with black hair, who was carried by the ancient tree spirit, was probably the one in the previous wedding rumors, and they still didn’t know why the spirit clan treated him so well.
It was easy to see that the spirit team were now in a very tight guard posture. In the center of the guard circle, was the young man. This posture was like a joint guarding some important treasure. Those who dared to cross the minefield would obviously end up in a very miserable situation.
The reason why the basic participation condition of the meeting was to be an immortal, it was that only the cultivators were immortals could cross the invisible boundary wall at the top of the main Peak of the barren mountain and come to this space.
Just when he reached the top of the barren mountain, Gu Huai had a very different feeling towards the invisible boundary wall.
There were also boundary walls between human world and other realms, but he thought that there was a difference between the feeling of crossing such boundary walls and the feeling of crossing the barren mountain.
This feeling was quite subtle and hard to explain. If it had to be described, Gu Huai felt it was a bit like the feeling when he passed the door of trial.
It also required the ability of people who crossed the boundary. The difference was that the door of trials could be waived, and the rigid requirement of the boundary wall of barren mountain was that he had to be an immortal. If the cultivators who were not immortals tried to pass forcibly, the only result would be the destruction of their bodies and souls.
“System, is there a higher level of plane space in the world? ”
Gu Huai asked his system, but he felt that this kind of problem related to the clearance value should be left to him.
Thinking about this problem may be difficulty, Gu Huai added a sentence, “well, forget it, I’ll observe it.”
System: “...”
Thinking of self reliance, Gu Huai suddenly found that his clearance value jumped to 45%, which showed what was more obvious.
It didn’t answer, but took the rise of the clearance value as affirmation of his discovery. Did his system go against the rules?
As if in response to this idea in his heart, the system stated in a cold, blank voice, “the behavior conforms to the regulations.”
“I won’t report you.” Gu Huai’s language had a bit of happiness. In fact, his system was quite good to him. Although it was not obvious, it had been helping him all the time.
What would it be if there was a higher level of plane space above the world? Gu Huai thought it was a little hard to imagine. After all, just on the side of the Xiuzhen world, the highest level of cultivation that a cultivator could reach was that of a saint. The cultivators who could reach this level of cultivation were terrifying existences that could destroy one side of the world by waving their hands.
If there was a higher level than the world, wasn’t it God domain? Gu Huai didn’t avoid the system when he thought about it. When he thought about it, he heard the system insert a sentence, “you can think so.”
“Is there really a God? ” Gu Huai still couldn’t imagine it.
“It’s a completely closed space for the outside world for the time being. Specific conditions need to be met to get through. At present, no one can do it. ”
It was difficult to find solutions to the lack of spiritual power in the Xiuzhen and Xiaoqian world, which could be said to be nonexistent. Combined with the increase of the clearance value, Gu Huai could now basically confirm the goal.
He has to find a way to get through the divine realm and improving his cultivation was still the basic condition.
On the platform of ancient buildings built by cultivators more than ten thousand years ago, the preliminary competition of the conference was going on.
The cultivators with accomplishments above Jiutian realm could enjoy special treatment and directly skip the preliminary contest, at this time, the senior leaders of the clans were all sitting on their camp seats and watching the competition.
The cultivators who performed well in the preliminaries would undoubtedly get more attention in the clan, and the resources they enjoyed would probably be promoted to a higher level.
In this conference, the distribution among all ethnic clans had to be said to be somewhat delicate. The spirit clan and the ghost clan were divided into neighboring areas. They should know that although the two races were not hostile, they did not mix well. Now the atmosphere between them was quite tense in the eyes of others.
“How long do you want to look?” Ji Lianzun frowned. This group of ghosts had been sneaking around to see their little master. It was a sign of misbehavior in the eyes of the spirit clan present.
Spirits and Ghosts were two distinct existences, because there were differences in the purity of their spirit body, but because they were the same spirit body, they inevitably had some slight similarities.
Peeking at the youth, a group of pale and gloomy ghosts took back their sight, one by one, they did not admit what they had just done. But not for long, their eyes again unconsciously moved to the youth surrounded by the spirit clan in the center.
As the direct receiver of these glances, Gu Huai turned his head and looked back at these pale ghosts, and felt that their glances were harmless. Gu Huai blinked doubtfully.
The similarity between the spirit body and the ghosts made these ghosts love the youth in front of them involuntarily. When they saw him blinking at them, the Yin Qi of the ghost clan spread rapidly.
Other races didn’t know why the spirits treated him so well, but the ghosts could clearly see it at a glance. The perfect spirit was the master of the spirit clan.
Could he go to the ghost world?
Obviously, they knew it was not possible, but it was obvious that he was just a youth.
Or could they invite the other to play in their ghost world? Otherwise, they could go to see him later.
He didn’t know that he had inadvertently promoted the change of the relationship between the two clans. After looking back, Gu Huai turned his head and summoned a long sword with a blade like frost and snow.
“I’ll lend it to you first.” Gu Huai handed the spirit sword to Xie Yan, who was sitting next to him, and said it seriously.
There were many strong cultivators who came to the meeting. Although he knew that the ancient spirit in front of him was at the top of the world, Gu Huai was still a little uneasy. The sword was even called the cultivator’s half body. It was such an important thing that he had to take with him.
He could win without a sword, but he could win faster with a sword, so that he could move to the secret place earlier to get the bride price. Xie Yan thought silently for a while. Finally, he lowered his head and pecked at the youth’s cheek. He took the abyss sword, which was no longer his main sword.
“After that...” After a little pause, Xie Yan looked at the youth in front of him and whispered, “I’d like to propose marriage to Ah Huai.”
He didn’t understand the word ‘propose marriage’ very well, but in Xie Yan’s impression, according to the custom of the people, this should be something to do after the bride price was ready.
“Good.” Gu Huai nodded his head, his eyes slightly bent with a look of helplessness. In the last world, they had done the most intimate things with each other. Now the other party wanted to marry, of course, He would agree.
However, Gu Huai was thinking.
His lover in the last world was so simple that he didn’t even know what ‘dating’ was. If he compared him with this world, he didn’t know whether there was any change ?
