Chapter 516: Cultivation

Under Gu Zheng's sword, the smaller bushes disappeared immediately after being cut off, just like the big mushrooms before. Although the larger bushes could withstand Gu Zheng's sword, they would fade after one sword, and the second sword would also disappear no matter where it hit.

After testing the bushes, Gu Zheng chopped at a tree next to him, and it would also fade after one sword. Gu Zheng chopped the tree twelve times! As for the vines on the tree, those as thick as arms, it took two swords to cut them off.

"If you don't attack these bushes with a sword, you can't get over them at all, and attacking these small bushes can sweep them down with one sword, but it's a waste of time. Originally, walking on the tree is the safest way, but when walking on the tree, these insidious things have repeatedly calculated, which is even more time-consuming. What should I do?"

Although there is no good way for the time being, Gu Zheng's footsteps did not stop, and he chose to chop the bushes to move forward.

But opening a path to move forward is not a long-term solution after all. The fire wall has entered the jungle, and Gu Zheng feels the burning sensation behind him is even stronger.

With the sword in his hand, the bushes disappeared in front of Gu Zheng. His anxious eyes suddenly brightened a lot, because he suddenly found a pattern!

When he wanted to walk on the tree before, Gu Zheng was calculated, which also shows that some of these plants in the forest have a certain attack power. However, during the time he opened the road, he did not encounter any plants that would attack him, including the trees that would "bend" and the mushrooms that would "grin".

"Why is this so? Is it because the attack carries the power of gold, and this "energy battlefield" cultivates the power of gold, so when facing the power of gold, these plants will not resist? If so, what will happen if you bring the power of gold when you light your body?"

Gu Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up. When he was calculated by the plants before, he did not use the power of gold. I guess normal people would not use the power of gold at that time! After all, the power of gold has no effect when used in the light body, and it will also cause consumption.

Gu Zheng did it as soon as he thought of it. He immediately used the power of gold in the light body.

Just like a monkey, Gu Zheng jumped around in the jungle, and was no longer blocked. His speed was much faster, and the fire wall was thrown behind him.

At first glance, there was a different white light in front. Gu Zheng felt that it should be the edge of the jungle. As long as he approached the white light, he would pass this level.

But the "energy battlefield" was not so easy to pass. The vines that had never attacked Gu Zheng finally whipped towards Gu Zheng like a long whip.

There were countless vines in the jungle, but fortunately, there were not many vines that attacked Gu Zheng, which allowed Gu Zheng to free his hands to deal with them when he shuttled through the jungle.

Vines were disillusioned under the sword in Gu Zheng's hand, and Gu Zheng was getting closer and closer to the white light.

However, as Gu Zheng approached the white light, more and more vines attacked him, and their resistance to the power of gold became stronger.

As the obstruction increased, Gu Zheng's speed naturally slowed down. As the fire wall behind him also closed the distance between him and Gu Zheng, the burning feeling made his back ache.

Although Gu Zheng did not fight with real people many times, his fighting skills were really high, which came from the awareness brought by his own talent and his hard work.

Don't think that Gu Zheng didn't spend much time on fighting skills! Although he didn't stay in the sect for a long time, it basically took more than a month to help Jiaojiao repair the Chaos Tower. In this more than a month, it only took three hours a day to repair the Chaos Tower. As for the rest of the time, he spent a large part of it in the Chaos Tower's 'Energy Battlefield'.

No matter what kind of immortal art or immortal skill, it needs to be put into use to make more progress. The 'Energy Battlefield' of the Chaos Tower is undoubtedly a very suitable place to improve fighting skills.

If we count the number of battles, Gu Zheng has experienced at least five or six thousand battles in the ‘Energy Battlefield’! This is a very scary number. If people who have experienced five or six thousand battles do not have superb fighting skills, then what kind of people can have superb fighting skills?

Finally, Gu Zheng got rid of the endless entanglement of the vines, rushed out of the jungle, and plunged into the white light.

The white light faded, and the light in the space returned to normal. The thing placed at Gu Zheng’s feet was still the jade box before.

The gold power in Gu Zheng’s body had hardly increased before, and he had practiced this fairy art less. However, this training in the ‘Energy Battlefield’ increased his gold power a little. Although the increase is not much, if it continues for a long time, this is a way to practice ‘life real gold’ without taking ‘Golden Spirit Pill’. After all, this method of practicing through the ‘energy battlefield’ is more advantageous than the traditional practice of the Gold Controlling Technique. It takes a very short time, but the results achieved are equivalent to the traditional practice of the Gold Controlling Technique for five days of uninterrupted practice!

After a short breath, Gu Zheng took a step forward, his vision alternated between light and dark, and he entered the fifth ‘energy battlefield’.

“Level breaker, imagine the immortal arts and immortal skills you want to practice in your mind!” said the old man in the spirit body in the air.

Among the five elements of immortal arts, Gu Zheng only has the intermediate level of controlling gold and controlling wood. Now that he has seen the training of controlling gold in the ‘Energy Battlefield’, he wants to see the training of controlling wood in the ‘Energy Battlefield’.

Among the five elements of immortal arts that Gu Zheng currently has, the only one that has no effect in actual combat is undoubtedly the controlling wood. Gu Zheng can only use the intermediate controlling wood to ripen certain ingredients and improve the efficacy of certain ingredients.

For the immortal art of controlling wood, the spirit of the weapon has a high evaluation of it. She once said that if the controlling wood is upgraded to a high level, Gu Zheng’s overall strength can be taken to a higher level.

Thinking about the controlling wood, the light in front of him dimmed, and then a blazing flame rose from the ground in the darkness.

Gu Zheng frowned, and was very impressed by the magic of the ‘Energy Battlefield’. The last ‘Energy Battlefield’ practiced the controlling gold, using the gold overcoming wood among the five elements. This time, there was also a wall of fire in front of him, but what was he practicing with? Among the five elements, wood overcomes earth!

Silently, a row of finger-length flying swords appeared behind the fire wall, and these flying swords aimed at Gu Zheng and shot over.

If it was in a normal environment, Gu Zheng would not be afraid of these flying swords, but this is an ‘energy battlefield’, an ‘energy battlefield’ that can kill people, and many of his magical powers are banned. His cultivation is the same as in the previous ‘energy battlefield’, only at the fifth level.

Gu Zheng did not dare to hesitate and immediately counterattacked the attacking flying swords. He had nothing in his hands, so he could only release his immortal power to try to shoot down the flying swords.

The flying swords were very sharp, but the actual destructive power was not that great. Gu Zheng made repeated moves while dodging, and finally shot down all the flying swords without any danger.

"Interesting!"

Gu Zheng smiled in his heart. During the whole process just now, he found some details, and it was these details that made him understand how he should practice the wood control technique in this ‘energy battlefield’.

When the flying sword passed through the fire wall, it showed signs of melting, and among the five elements, fire overcomes metal.

In this energy battlefield, the immortal art that Gu Zheng wanted to practice was the Wood Control Technique. Among the five elements, wood generates fire, and the wood energy entering the fire wall will definitely increase the fire, thereby more quickly disintegrating the attack of the flying sword.

Similarly, because the immortal art that Gu Zheng wanted to practice was the Wood Control Technique, according to his understanding, he could be considered a wood-type existence. If he was injured by the flying sword, I am afraid that the injury would also have the effect of the five elements restraining each other.

In this "energy battlefield", in addition to the invisible mutual generation and restraint, there is also a detail of the technique that Gu Zheng discovered.

The flying swords passed through the fire wall at the same time. Although their size and shape looked exactly the same, their textures were different, giving Gu Zheng a sense of difference in weight. When knocking down the flying sword, Gu Zheng also clearly felt that the flying sword with a heavier texture had a relatively stronger destructive power, and it was more resistant to burning when passing through the fire wall.

Since the different textures will affect the destructive power and resistance of the flying swords, Gu Zheng must treat them differently when using the power of wood to deal with them.

Silently, the second wave of flying swords was generated behind the fire wall.

Gu Zheng, who had a plan in mind, immediately flicked his fingers repeatedly, and the green light spots formed by the power of wood fell on the corresponding positions of the flying swords.

"Boom!"

The effect of the wood power entering the fire wall was like adding fuel to the fire.

Due to the different sizes of the green light spots, the heights of the flames that sprang out of the fire wall were also different. The low ones could be more than one foot high, and the high ones were three feet high. The size of the wood power light spots naturally corresponded to the weight and lightness of the force.

The flying swords attacked, and their flight trajectories were aimed at the routines that Gu Zheng had laid out in advance.

"Good!"

Gu Zheng cheered in his heart. The fact was the same as he expected. None of the sharp flying swords could pass through the blockade of the fire wall. They all turned into liquid in the flames.

The third wave of flying swords appeared, and the interval between their appearances was obviously shortening.

Gu Zheng attacked like the wind, and the green wood power was repeatedly bounced to the wall of fire.

Although the speed of the flying swords became faster, Gu Zheng still dealt with them easily, after all, his reaction was also very fast.

In the blink of an eye, the seven waves of flying sword attacks had passed, and Gu Zheng's wood power generated by the intermediate wood control technique had been used up by more than half. After all, the consumption of the five elements in this "energy battlefield" was fundamentally different from the previous "energy battlefield".

In the previous "energy battlefield", Gu Zheng's gold power only needed to be mixed with immortal power, but the wood power consumed in this "energy battlefield" was very pure.

"From the situation that the strength of the flying swords is constantly increasing, my wood power will be exhausted after two more waves at most, and what exactly does this "energy battlefield" rely on?"

In Gu Zheng's guess, the eighth wave of flying swords appeared, and Gu Zheng immediately attacked, and the light spot transformed by the wood power also flew into the wall of fire immediately.

There were no accidents, and all the flying swords in the eighth wave were killed.

However, the overall strength of the eighth wave of flying swords was a bit higher than Gu Zheng's previous estimation, which resulted in the remaining wood power of Gu Zheng being unable to deal with the ninth wave of flying swords.

When the ninth wave of flying swords appeared, Gu Zheng's eyes widened a little, because the overall strength of this ninth wave of flying swords was the same as that of the eighth wave! At first glance, this was a good sign. The flying swords as a whole did not increase as much as before, which made Gu Zheng's wood power, which was originally insufficient, just right.

However, it was precisely because the flying swords as a whole did not increase as much as before that Gu Zheng had to think that this wave of flying swords might be weird!

In a flash, Gu Zheng made a decision and he bounced the wood power into the fire wall again. However, this time, the wood power light spots that were bounced in were not like the previous nine, but only six.

In this situation where it felt weird, Gu Zheng could only make a decision with trade-offs.

There were a total of nine flying swords, and there was a gap between each one. The lightness and heaviness of their textures increased from left to right.

The six flying swords that Gu Zheng targeted were the six flying swords closest to him, and they were also the six flying swords whose textures changed from light to heavy. In other words, there are three flying swords that Gu Zheng has not targeted, which are the three with the heaviest texture and the most difficult to deal with.

Gu Zheng made such a choice, of course, he also had his considerations in it.

If the flying sword does not mutate, then he only needs to deal with three flying swords, which is not too late to attack them when they pass through the fire wall.

But if the flying sword mutates, no matter what form the mutation takes, it is not a wrong thing to retain more wood power.

It must be said that Gu Zheng's caution is not wrong, the flying sword really mutates.

The mutation is not all, but intermittent mutation.

The original nine flying swords, the movement trajectory of No. 2, 4, 6 and 8 did not change, and they all went towards the fire wall.

Gu Zheng narrowed his eyes, and when he felt that the flying sword could no longer change its trajectory, he flicked his finger and ejected the wood power light spot, which filled the movement trajectory of the No. 8 flying sword.

"Hu..."

The flames that suddenly rose were a full foot high, successfully intercepting the No. 8 flying sword.

In the end, the flying swords No. 2, 4, 6, and 8 all burned into solutions in the fire wall, posing no threat to Gu Zheng.

At the same time, the flying swords No. 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 all moved horizontally and changed to the positions of the flying swords with even numbers. The flames that originally intercepted the flying swords No. 2, 4, 6, and 8 were extinguished in the previous burning of the flying swords.

Gu Zheng did not dare to hesitate, and flicked his fingers twice, and the remaining wood power was added to the corresponding positions of the flying swords No. 7 and No. 9.

The blazing flames rose, and the flying swords No. 7 and No. 9 failed to pass through the fire wall and eventually turned into solutions. The flying swords No. 1, 3, and 5 flew towards Gu Zheng.

If Gu Zheng used the wood power used to deal with the flying swords No. 7 and No. 9 to deal with the flying swords No. 1, 3, and 5, it would actually be just right. But if he did so, although the number of flying swords he faced would be less, the destructive power would be even stronger! Having had experience fighting with flying swords, Gu Zheng would rather choose to face quantity than quality!

Without the power of wood, Gu Zheng could only rely on his immortal power. Although the battle was a bit difficult, since he dared to make the decision to sacrifice quality for quantity, he naturally had his confidence.

"Clang!"

The sound of metal and iron clashing rang out, and the No. 5 flying sword was hit by Gu Zheng's immortal power and slashed on the No. 1 flying sword while spinning.

The No. 1 flying sword was chopped, and many cracks appeared on it. Gu Zheng, who had been prepared, used his immortal power to turn into a hammer and smashed it heavily on the No. 1 flying sword.

"Crack..."

The No. 1 flying sword shattered and fell to the ground and disappeared without a trace.

"Swoosh..."

The No. 3 flying sword passed by Gu Zheng, and Gu Zheng's side was still a step late, and a trace of blood was brought out of the shoulder by the No. 3 flying sword.

As expected, as previously speculated, in this magical "energy battlefield", the flying sword's attack has the special effect of the five elements' mutual restraint. The trace of wood power that originally remained in Gu Zheng's body suddenly disappeared without a trace in this injury.

Although he was injured, only two of the original three flying swords were left, and Gu Zheng was able to deal with them more easily.

Finally, with a sound of metal and iron clashing, the No. 3 flying sword swept by Gu Zheng's immortal power collided with the No. 5 flying sword, which was already covered with cracks, and both became broken swords and disappeared without a trace.

The light in front of him alternated between light and dark, and Gu Zheng appeared in the previous space again. And the thing placed at his feet was still the jade box he got in the third 'energy battlefield'.

Gu Zheng threw a healing pill into his mouth, and began to recover in all aspects under the rotation of the immortal power ball in his body.

The wood control technique in Gu Zheng's body was also not the main immortal technique, so it was still very weak.

After experiencing the 'energy battlefield' of practicing the wood control technique, Gu Zheng's wood power has naturally become stronger. This kind of practice through the 'energy battlefield' takes a very short time, but the effect achieved is equivalent to the traditional practice method of practicing the wood control technique for five days!

After his body was fully recovered, Gu Zheng took a step forward, and his vision turned from dark to bright.

"Level breaker, imagine the immortal art or immortal skill you want to practice in your mind!" said the old man in the spirit body in the air.

Now Tang Mo has become Gu Zheng's most important immortal weapon. Gu Zheng wants to practice his mountain-breaking knife skills in this "energy battlefield", so he also thinks about the set of flowing immortal skills in his heart.

"Bang!"

The old man in the spirit body in the air exploded and turned into a huge ball of light and fell to the ground. After the mushroom cloud rose and disappeared, there was an energy body dummy in the original place.

The energy dummy looked exactly like Gu Zheng, holding a black Tang sword in his hand, and exuding an extremely dangerous aura.

A black light also appeared in Gu Zheng's hand, and he quickly turned into Tang Mo's appearance.

The sharp sword energy broke through the wind, and the energy dummy slashed at Gu Zheng from a distance.

Gu Zheng swung his hand back, and the sword energy broke through the wind and collided with the sword energy slashed by the energy dummy, making a huge sound.

"Swoosh!"

Whether it was Gu Zheng or the energy dummy, they approached each other at the same time, and their extremely fast figures left afterimages.

After all, the mountain-breaking sword technique is more powerful in close combat. If you want to see its power, both parties must get close.
