Chapter 280: Raising Gu

This was the first time Huan Yin heard someone other than Ruan Shushu speak after entering this strange world. However, Huan Yin only understood half of what this person said.

The number of seventy-seven means seventy-seven forty-nine. The inheritance trial begins. Does it mean that there will be a trial of inheritance here?

Is this Wushen Village waiting for forty-nine predestined people to start a trial and finally select a number of people to obtain the inheritance?

What kind of inheritance would that be? It's a witch! It's a witch god!

Huan Yin didn't know if he guessed wrong, but if it was really as he thought, then Ruan Shushu should be one of the forty-nine people now, and she should be in a room like him, waiting for the inheritance trial to start.

Huan Yin calmed down. He knew that his random struggle would definitely not have any effect. What he should do now is to wait and see and find a way to break the deadlock.

Huan Yin retreated from the door, and then he found that there were a few more things on the table that was originally placed in the middle of the room and had nothing on it.

In the center of the table was a small brown cup with a lid on it. No one knew what was inside.

Next to the cup were five black objects. Huan Yin picked up the five objects he had never seen before and observed them for a while, but he had no idea what they were.

However, he was an instrument master, and because he had studied the sword-making chapter of "The Infinite Sword", he had some research on the five elements. He found that although the five objects looked the same, they were of different properties: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. They were completely different.

Huan Yin picked up the cup on the table, and then he carefully opened the lid.

With a "bang!", the cup in Huan Yin's hand fell onto the table, and he looked at the cup with a surprised look on his face, with cold sweat on his forehead.

At this moment, there are densely packed black insects in this small cup. These insects are very small and their appearance cannot be seen clearly, but they give people a feeling very similar to the sea of ​​insects that Huanyin encountered at the beginning. It seems that these insects crawling in the cup are the larvae of those terrifying alien insects.

What Huanyin doesn't know is that the thing in this small cup is actually called "Gu".

Tens of thousands of years ago, when the Taoism in the entire Jiuzhou land had not yet taken shape, and when all the cultivators were still groping forward, there was a foreign race called the Wu clan.

The Wu clan is good at witchcraft, which is also called Gu technique. It is based on the Gu in the small cup in front of Huanyin. Through the cultivation and refining of Gu, it eventually forms a variety of powerful and unpredictable witch Gu.

According to legend, the power of witchcraft is huge, and the power of witch Gu is strong. It once had a very strong reputation in that wild era, attracting many cultivators from the Jiuzhou land to go to learn. Therefore, the Wu clan was once prosperous and shone extremely brightly on the land of Jiuzhou.

The great man who created witchcraft was also the one with the highest witchcraft in the Wu clan, and was called the Wu God.

The Wu God was one of the first people to practice Taoism on the land of Jiuzhou, just like Lu Ya Zhenren. It is said that the Wu God not only had a high level of understanding, but also had a keen eye. When all the cultivators were trying to break through their own limits, he discovered the power of Gu. From then on, he began to study and develop the power of Gu, and finally achieved success in one fell swoop. He became a great man in a different way and founded the Wu clan.

However, the Wu clan existed for less than a thousand years before it suddenly disappeared, and it disappeared very thoroughly. Not only was the Taoist tradition completely destroyed, but even the Gu never appeared on the land of Jiuzhou again. Even the books that recorded the Wu clan seemed to have been deliberately destroyed by someone.

Therefore, now there are very few people who know the existence of the Wu clan and what Gu is. Perhaps only the first generation of cultivators like Wei Bing and Lu Ya Zhenren who have witnessed the glory of the Wu Clan know a lot about everything about the Wu Clan. However, all of these cultivators tacitly kept silent about the Wu Clan, and I don’t know why.

In the ruins that Huan Yin saw before, there was a huge "Wu" character engraved in the stone chamber, because that ruins was the ruins of the Wu Clan.

And the dark world that Huan Yin and Ruan Shushu entered through the ruins of the Wu Clan was exactly where the Wu Clan's Taoism developed and multiplied in the past, so there were those sea of ​​witchcraft insects and terrifying puppet dolls here.

As for the Wushen Village where Huan Yin is now, it was the birthplace of the Wushen long ago, and it was also the key place where witchcraft went from nothing to prosperity and finally completely disappeared.

Wushen Village should have been on the ground of the land of Jiuzhou, and this dark world should actually be on the ground.

But why the whole world is buried in an unknown depth underground, why it is at the foot of the Sin Mountain of Ziyin Sect, no one knows.

"Three days of raising Gu, start now!" Huan Yin's mind once again appeared the voice without any emotion, pulling him back from shock.

This time Huan Yin heard it very clearly, the meaning of the voice should be to raise something called "Gu". He looked at the worms still crawling in the small cup, and immediately reacted, I'm afraid these worms are the so-called "Gu".

The time for raising Gu is three days, so how to raise it? Now Huan Yin can only use the five black things on the table, because he only has ordinary power now, and he can't even open his Qiankun bag.

According to the two previous voice prompts, the so-called raising of Gu should be part of the inheritance test. If you can reach the end of the inheritance test, you should be able to obtain the inheritance, the inheritance of the witch god!

But what if you fail in the trial? The voice did not mention it, but if you fail, I am afraid there will be no good results. Because this place of the witch god is extremely secretive, it has probably existed here for more than tens of thousands of years. The outside world has never known the existence of this place. How is this secret kept? Only the dead can't speak.

However, if you succeed in obtaining the inheritance in the end, will witchcraft reappear on the land of Jiuzhou again, and will the witch clan have a chance to rise again?

There are too many secrets hidden in this witch god village, and Huan Yin doesn't even know the most basic history of the witch clan. How can he understand what is going on now.

He only knows that he must do what the voice says now, so that he has a chance to continue and have a chance to understand more things.

So, Huan Yin sat down at the table and picked up the small cup again.

He didn't want to touch the chilling Gu worm, but he had to find a way to raise Gu now. Moreover, he had to cultivate the Gu to be very strong before he could pass the three-day trial of raising Gu.

Huan Yin knew nothing about Gu, and he didn't know what to do in the first step, so he could only try.

He found seven or eight small cups in the corner of the room again, and then he carefully separated the Gu into very small pieces, and put them into five different small cups, and then covered the small cup with many Gu worms on the table.

These very few Gu that were separated were the objects that Huan Yin wanted to try.

His method was very simple, but very practical, that is, to put the five pieces of things with different properties into five small cups respectively, and see what kind of changes the Gu in the cups would undergo.

This way of trying naturally came from the way of sword-making. When Huan Yin was studying the way of sword-making in private, especially the way of sword-making with five elements, he would often try like he was raising Gu now, to explore what the result would be when the sword was finally made. This way allowed him to quickly understand the means he was not sure of, and greatly increased his chances of success in sword-making.

Speaking of which, raising Gu is like forging a sword, but using witchcraft to fight against the enemy is like controlling spirits, so Gu is really a very magical thing. If the tradition of witchcraft had not perished, perhaps now on the land of Jiuzhou, witchcraft would still be a very powerful way of Taoism.

Huan Yin quickly did what he thought, and then he began to carefully observe the changes of the Gu worms in each small cup.

I have to admit that Gu worms are really a very plastic thing. Not long after Huan Yin added the five elements, the Gu in each small cup actually changed significantly.

First, the Gu worms cultivated with the gold element, now their bodies have emitted a faint silver light, as if they really began to evolve into metal.

Looking at the wood element Gu worms, their bodies began to glow slightly with dark green light, and even faintly revealed a plant breath.

As for the water element Gu worms, their bodies have begun to become transparent, and there are signs of fusion with each other, as if they have really turned into water.

What about the fire element Gu worms? There were red spots on their backs, and they looked a little manic. Their crawling speed was much faster than other Gu worms. Not only that, the existence of the fire Gu worms made the temperature of the whole small cup a little higher.

Finally, there were the earth Gu worms. They had completely gathered together. If Huan Yin didn't know that these were the Gu worms he had just cultivated, he would probably think that there was some soil in the small cup.

As these Gu worms continued to transform, Huan Yin also had a strange feeling on his body. He found that his cultivation power had recovered a little, but this little cultivation could not allow him to perform any magic, but only allowed him to have a slight connection with the Gu worms he cultivated. He felt that he only needed to move his mind to control the Gu worms in the small cup, just like a spirit cultivator controlling his own spirit.

Such a feeling was really wonderful and magical. Huan Yin had been practicing Taoism until now, and sword casting was his foundation. Due to Bai Kui's existence, the art of controlling spirits also had a lot of connections with him. Therefore, Huan Yin can be said to be both a weapon cultivator and a spirit cultivator. Now, raising Gu is like forging a sword, and controlling Gu is like controlling spirits, so for him, Gu has become more familiar.
