Chapter 997 Determination

"Do you still want to become my disciple now?"

Lu Yu's voice suddenly sounded from the side, and Master Lian Gu came back to his senses.

"You also know what happened in Guoyun Ancient City before. This is just the beginning. Not only the Scarlet Moon Demon Sect, Jade Sea Immortal Sect, and Wuya Immortal Pavilion will not let me go, but there may be more in the future. My enemy said no, are you sure you want to continue to follow me?"

Master Lian Gu turned around silently.

He found that although Lu Yu was talking to him, his eyes were fixed on the Pegasus cavalry, which had turned into black spots in the sky.

In addition, Chudie, Yudie, and Ye Weilan also walked out of the Spring Conch.

Several people also silently watched the black armored cavalry who was about to disappear into the sky.

"Teacher, please accept my disciple's bow!"

Master Lian Gu suddenly knelt down again and kowtowed hard to Lu Yu.

This unexpected move made the four of them turn around at the same time and look at him in surprise.

"You still don't give up?"

Lu Yu said with a weird look on his face: "Have you not figured out what I mean? Waiting for us in front is not only the Ice Emperor Island Master and his group, but also Yue Xiujun, Master Kunpeng, Tiantian Jinpeng, Ancestor Xueyun, Ancestor Changmei, and the other five of the Seven Ancestors of Wuya..."

"And this is just for the present. In the future, there may be existences above the Tiangang Realm..."

In this world, the upper limit of cultivation realm is Tiangang Realm. The existence above Tiangang Realm is something that ordinary people cannot imagine.

Just the thought of it is enough to make people shudder.

However, Master Lian Gu did not hesitate at all and said firmly: "Master Master, I am serious. I have never been as serious as I am now..."

"I started building foundations and practicing at the age of six, entered the path of Gu insects at the age of seven, attained the physical state at the age of thirteen, and entered the true element state at the age of fifteen... I have been working hard and diligently until I was eighty-three years old, and finally attained the state of the Tao and became a real person. Today, my life span is exactly two hundred years old."

"A mortal body is only a hundred years old. I have lived for two hundred years. I originally felt that I had transcended the mortal realm. But today, when I got along with Master and all the ladies, and after experiencing a series of changes, I realized that I have not escaped. In the realm of the mundane, it is still just a piece of grass for all living beings. Just like the Gu insects I raise, they may be crushed to death by someone else's hands at any time..."

"There is an old saying: If you hear the Tao in the morning, you will die in the evening! I would like to be an insect that hears the Tao in the morning glow and lives toward the sun, rather than hiding in a bag and living in mediocrity and trembling! Even if someone wants to do it again in the future. If he wants to crush me to death, he must pay the price with his blood! I beg you, Master!”

Master Lian Gu’s face was full of piety and his eyes were shining.

Lu Yu couldn't help being completely stunned.

Unexpectedly, Master Lian Gu would have such a firm belief in order to become his disciple.

Obviously, when the owner of Ice King Island interrogated him before, his unscrupulous manner of taking life and death gave him a lot of stimulation...

For a moment, Lu Yu couldn't help but hesitate.

Originally, he had no intention of accepting the other party as his disciple, but now the other party's confession revealed his extremely pure and determined spirit.

This kind of enterprising spirit is extremely rare even in young people, so he couldn't help but feel a little shaken.

What is the most important thing in the way of cultivation?

Is it a bone? Is it qualifications?

Is it a spiritual energy resource? Or various treasures?

Is it a supreme skill that points directly to the source, or is it a mysterious and unpredictable method that defies heaven?

Lu Yu felt the same way at first about the above.

But as he practiced for a long time and his realm deepened, he gained a new understanding...

The way of cultivation is essentially to go against nature.

On this basis, what really plays a decisive role is not the above, but a solid Taoist heart.

Only a Taoist heart that is stable enough can control powerful enough power. Otherwise, even if one has unparalleled power, one day the power will backfire, because the way of heaven is like this.

The strength of Taoist heart is evolved by extreme emotions, and determination to make progress is the most potential one among many emotions.

From a certain point of view, Master Lian Gu, who has completely changed his past and has suddenly awakened, undoubtedly has unlimited potential...

However, although Lu Yu was tempted, this moment was not a good time to accept a disciple...

So, he looked at Chudie and Yudie on the side as if asking for help.

Although the relationship between the three of them is very messy, in terms of their seniority, they are both his seniors, so it is natural to listen to their opinions.

Yudie snorted softly and turned her head away proudly.

Chudie just spread her hands helplessly, looking helpless.

They wanted to worship him as their teacher by name, so how could they have any good opinions?

"This matter... let's wait until we return to Dali Sword Sect!"

Lu Yu finally decided.

"Even if I want to fulfill your wish now, I don't have such conditions..."

"When you return to Dali Sword Sect, don't say whether you want to be a disciple or not. Then you can stay on Jade Butterfly Peak as a guest. You and I can learn from each other and discuss Taoism..."

"If we can still go back..."

Even Master Gu has to say it again.

However, Lu Yu directly waved his hand to stop him: "Okay, let's not mention this matter again!"

He turned back and looked at Chudie, Yudie and Ye Weilan, saying: "I didn't expect that Lan Qianqiu would become like this after being taken away by the Red Moon Lord. I really don't know whether he should be considered a member of the Jade Sea Immortal Sect or the Red Moon Demon Sect... But one thing is certain, his power is stronger than before!"

Ye Weilan said: "Not only him, but also the subordinates with him, their conditions are so strange, if I remember correctly..."

She hesitated for a moment, "They should have died in the Golden Rooster Islands..."

She had excellent eyesight, and in the battle of the Golden Rooster Islands, she had always been guarding Lu Yu as a guard, so she could see the changes in the situation on the entire battlefield very clearly.

Although these black-armored cavalrymen were covered in black armor, with her keen insight, she still saw a lot of clues... In her impression, most of these people should have died in the original battle.

"Resurrection from the dead?" Yudie's beautiful eyes showed a look of surprise.

Lu Yu shook his head slowly: "Except Lan Qianqiu, no one else spoke. We see that they have lost the ability to communicate normally with others. It is hard to say whether they are alive or not!"

"So, this is a group of puppets made up of dead people, and they are all puppets with the strength of Jindan Realm. Is this possible?" Yudie said in surprise.

Chudie replied: "If it is related to the Red Moon Demon Cult, then nothing is impossible..."

Yudie couldn't help but smile: "Interesting... I didn't expect that I would encounter such an interesting thing as soon as I came out after being trapped in Tianhuan Palace for so many years!"

"And even the Red Moon Demon Cult has revived... It's so interesting!"

Seeing her enjoyment, Lu Yu and others were speechless.

It seems that she has no idea how much trouble the Red Moon Demon Cult has brought to the Dali Sword Sect in recent years, and even the Elders' Council has been troubled...

But speaking of determination to forge ahead, Yudie is no less than Lian Gu Zhenren...
