Chapter 33: Changes in the Life Star Bead

In Gu Xiuyun's perception, the rules of heaven and earth surged endlessly, as if they were about to condense into shape, but after a long time, they dissipated again.

"I guessed right!" Gu Xiuyun's face was filled with uncontrollable excitement and excitement.

The thief God can only act according to the established rules. Although Gu Xiuyun violated the taboo, he did not take the Shuiling Ancient Jade on his own initiative, but it was presented by the guards. He even said in person that if the guards had any gains, they did not have to offer them, but could keep them for themselves.

Even if the thief God checked the cause and effect cycle, he could not find Gu Xiuyun's flaws.

"As the saying goes, if you don't take what God gives, you will suffer the consequences. I didn't take the initiative to look for the Shuiling Ancient Jade. Someone else voluntarily gave it to me."

"What's wrong with looking at and touching something that was delivered to your door?"

Gu Xiuyun was particularly proud.

"It can be seen that the thief God is not a real creature after all, and cannot guess people's hearts, let alone understand why the guards took the initiative to offer spiritual medicine and jade?"

Just as Gu Xiuyun was thinking, changes began to occur in the depths of his soul.

After the three stone beads were repaired, they seemed to have an inexplicable induction with each other.

Whoosh!

The stone beads suddenly separated from the soul and hung above the sea of ​​consciousness, like real stars. At the same time, faint starlight fell and merged into the stone beads like spring rain.

"Three repaired life star beads actually left my soul?" Gu Xiuyun was shocked and looked into the depths of his mind.

Above the sea of ​​consciousness, three stone beads were spinning, and the starlight was shining, illuminating the sea of ​​consciousness within a hundred feet.

The human sea of ​​consciousness is boundless and is said to be as vast as the sky and the earth, but it is always blocked by fog and the direction cannot be seen clearly. At this moment, under the illumination of the star beads, a space within a hundred feet is revealed.

At this moment, Gu Xiuyun felt extremely energetic, as if he had just woken up and was full of strength.

"The changes in the life star beads seem to have an impact on my soul?"

Gu Xiuyun was happy and surprised. From his own feelings, the changes in the life star beads seemed to be beneficial and harmless.

But he was worried that this change would violate the taboos of heaven and earth.

After a long time, the rules of heaven and earth still had no reaction, and Gu Xiuyun finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Young Master?"

The guards saw that Gu Xiuyun had been in a daze, and couldn't help but call him.

Gu Xiuyun came back to his senses, "Your piece of jade is good, although it is a little small, but it can be refined into a talisman. If you offer it to the family, it can at least be exchanged for 10,000 taels of gold."

As he said, Gu Xiuyun placed the jade in the palm of the guard.

"Spiritual jade that can be refined into a talisman?" The guard's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hid the jade in his pocket with joy.

The other guards also showed envy.

In terms of value, spiritual jade is far superior to spiritual medicine. After all, spiritual medicine grows everywhere, while spiritual jade is very rare.

"This time we went out of the city to hunt the Kaimai Realm monster. Now that it has been completed, there is no need to stay any longer. You can pack up and prepare to return to the city!"

Gu Xiuyun ordered.

"Finally going back to the city!" The guards breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the harvest in the mountains is great, there are also many dangers. Almost all the beasts that roam here are ferocious beasts, and demon beasts often appear.

In the few hours of searching for spiritual medicine, they have encountered three Yuanling Ximai Realm demon beasts. Fortunately, they were all killed in time by Gu Xiuyun, so there were no casualties.

The guards packed the spiritual medicine and demon beast materials with cloth. Almost all of them carried two or three bags on their shoulders. Along the way, they killed more than a dozen demon beasts. Those demon beasts were so big that they could not be taken away. They could only cut off valuable parts, such as horns, teeth, tails, etc., which alone filled dozens of bags.

In addition, there were many bottles and jars, all of which contained demon blood.

If these bags were presented to the Gu family, at least hundreds of thousands of taels of gold could be exchanged.

Going out of the city once, they could get such a big harvest, which was almost no less than the powerful Kaimai Guan Realm, and made the guards more respectful to Gu Xiuyun.

"When I return to the city, I will buy a house and take my wife and daughter to live on the second floor." A guard said happily.

The cheapest house on the second floor of Yuning City costs one thousand taels of gold, and there is no market for it. In fact, if you really go to buy it, you have to spend two or three thousand. But the harvest this time out of the city is too great. Gu Xiuyun only took 90% of the materials in the bag, and the remaining 10% was distributed by the guards.

After careful calculation, almost everyone can get three thousand taels of gold, which is not a problem to buy a house.

"Brother Geng has a wife and children at home, but I am a lonely person. I usually live in the courtyard of the Gu family," Wu Laosan laughed, "This gold must be enough for me to enter the Danjing Tower once."

In addition to the clan members who can enter and exit freely, the first three floors of the Gu family's Danjing Tower are also open to the public, but if outsiders want to enter, they must pay enough gold.

"Wu Laosan, I didn't realize you are so ambitious. Do you also want to enlighten the spirit veins and establish a family?" The other guards laughed.

"Who wouldn't want to ascend to the immortal realm?" Wu Laosan curled his lips.

After leaving the mountains, everyone was obviously much more relaxed. They talked and laughed along the way. In just one day, they walked two hundred miles.

Along the way, Gu Xiuyun hardly spoke again. He was feeling the changes in the depths of his soul.

The three life star beads hovered above the sea of ​​consciousness, constantly drawing in the starlight. Ninety percent of the starlight was integrated into the life star beads, but the remaining ten percent fell into the sea of ​​consciousness, nourishing his soul.

Gu Xiuyun could feel that these starlights were of great benefit to the soul. As the starlight fell, not only did his mind work much faster, but his spirit was also extremely full, as if he didn't need to rest at all.

"Since the spiritual vein was enlightened, my mind has become much stronger. I only need to sleep for two hours a day, but my spirit will eventually get tired. But under the shining of the starlight, it seems that I don't need to rest at all!"

Faced with this change, Gu Xiuyun was surprised and happy.

The strong mind allowed him to do two things at once. While deducing the Lichen Escape and the Refining Light Finger, he also observed the surrounding environment and was alert to the attacks of monsters.

Not only that, as the starlight continued to fall, his soul continued to become stronger, and even the speed of deducing the ban was a little faster.

Gu Xiuyun had a feeling that as the starlight fell, one day his soul would truly transform, and by then, perhaps incredible changes would occur.

...

Just as everyone was leisurely returning to the city, boom!

A violent explosion suddenly came from a distance.

Gu Xiuyun frowned. That thunderous sound could only be caused by a demon beast at the level of the Pulse Opening Pass.

Then, another explosion was heard, seemingly a few miles away.

"Could it be that a cultivator is fighting a demon beast? But how could a demon beast at the level of the Pulse Opening Pass appear in the wilderness?" Gu Xiuyun was puzzled.

Demon beasts also have wisdom and know how to avoid danger. The wilderness within a radius of 500 miles of Youning City is within the attack range of the third-level altar. If they dare to appear, they are likely to be shot by the crossbows in the altar.

So under normal circumstances, there are only demon beasts at the level of the Yuanling Ximai in the wilderness, and no big demons at the level of the Pulse Opening Pass appear.

"If something is abnormal, there must be a problem." Gu Xiuyun rolled his eyes and said in a deep voice: "I'll go see what happened. You stay here and hide carefully to avoid attracting the attack of demon beasts."

"Young Master, you have to be more careful." The guards were a little worried.

"There are not many people who can kill me in this wilderness." Gu Xiuyun smiled lightly.
