Chapter 364 Throwing Out Manager Liu
"Isn't this Manager Liu? How did he get thrown out?"
"Oh, isn't this the young monk Gu Sheng? How did he become so powerful?"
Gu Sheng walked to the street and looked at Manager Liu and his men who were slumped on the ground in fear. He said loudly: "Fellow villagers, these bullies usually oppress the people and do all kinds of evil. Today, I, Gu Sheng, will eliminate the harm for the people!"
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly stepped on Manager Liu's chest. With a crisp "click", Manager Liu's sternum was instantly broken. Then, Gu Sheng kicked Manager Liu's arms and legs several times in a row, breaking all his limbs.
The onlookers applauded and cheered. They were also fed up with the oppression and exploitation of these bullies on weekdays. Now seeing Gu Sheng venting their anger for them, they naturally felt relieved and happy.
"Good! Good fight!"
"Gu Sheng is really our hero!"
Amid the cheers of the crowd, Gu Sheng turned and left. He knew that what happened today was just the beginning. He would use his own strength to protect more people and maintain justice and peace in this world.
In addition to fighting the Li family bullies, Gu Sheng's main job is to practice.
On this day, after a physical training, he began to sit in seclusion.
After half a day of seclusion, the sea of suffering began to churn.
"Buzz buzz buzz--" In Gu Sheng's body, the unique life essence of the wheel sea realm was spinning rapidly, like waves of turbulent waves, surging in the sea of suffering. These essences gradually condensed into primitive "divine patterns", shining with mysterious light.
Gu Sheng closed his eyes and sat quietly, his mind completely immersed in introspection. He observed these divine patterns, his heart full of expectations and excitement. He knew that this was an important turning point in his cultivation path, and he was about to forge his first "instrument".
"Instrument", for the cultivators of the wheel sea realm, is a symbol of strength and status. It is not only a weapon to kill enemies externally, but also a manifestation of the inner will and Tao of the cultivator. Gu Sheng knew this very well, so he was very cautious in choosing the "tool" to be forged.
He had considered common "tool" shapes such as flying knives and daggers, but eventually rejected them one by one. He wanted a "tool" that was different and could represent his Tao heart. So he thought of the "ding".
"Ding" has a pivotal position in ancient Chinese culture. It symbolizes stability, solemnity and mystery. Gu Sheng felt that the "ding" was the perfect embodiment of the cultivation path he pursued in his heart. Moreover, the shape of the three-legged round tripod made him feel the morality of the universe.
"That's it!" Gu Sheng's eyes flashed with determination, and he decided to forge his "divine pattern" into a three-legged round tripod.
In his heart, Gu Sheng began to simulate the process of forging. He imagined that the divine pattern in his hand gradually deformed and merged, and finally turned into a golden three-legged round tripod. Although this process was difficult, Gu Sheng enjoyed it. He felt the wonderful connection between himself and the "cauldron".
As time passed, fine beads of sweat oozed out of Gu Sheng's forehead, but his eyes became brighter and brighter. Finally, with his unremitting efforts, the three-legged round tripod in his heart gradually became clear.
With a light sound of "hum--", the golden three-legged round tripod was completely formed in Gu Sheng's heart. It exudes a soft light, as if carrying all Gu Sheng's expectations and dreams.
Gu Sheng carefully observed the tripod. Its three legs are stable, the tripod body is round, and it is full of Taoism. He couldn't help but reach out to touch it. Although it was just a simulation in his heart, he could feel the coldness and hardness coming from the tripod body.
"It's perfect!" Gu Sheng couldn't help but exclaimed. He added tripod ears to his tripod, making it look more majestic and solemn. This tripod seems to be a portrayal of Gu Sheng's heart, firm, steady and mysterious.
Gu Sheng couldn't let go of this three-legged round tripod. He looked forward to forging a real "tripod" in the sea of suffering one day. He knew that would be an important milestone on his path of cultivation.
"Hahaha!" Gu Sheng couldn't help laughing, his laughter was full of confidence and expectation, "With this tripod, my path of cultivation will be smoother and unimpeded!"
Just then, a voice suddenly sounded in Gu Sheng's ears: "Congratulations, Gu Sheng! You finally found your own way."
Gu Sheng turned his head and saw that it was his Taoist Master who came over. Taoist Master is an anthropomorphic mentor born from the Taoist Scriptures. Gu Sheng called him Taoist Master. He quickly stood up and saluted: "Thank you Taoist Master for your guidance!"
"This is the result of your own efforts and understanding, and has nothing to do with being a teacher." Taoist Master smiled and said, "Next, what you have to do is to forge this tripod out of the sea of heart and let it become your real helper."
"Yes! Disciple will definitely work hard!" Gu Sheng said firmly. He knew that this was just the beginning and he still had a long way to go. However, with the company of this three-legged round tripod, he believed that he would be able to go further and higher!
In the following days, Gu Sheng began a difficult journey of tempering. He continued to inject life essence into the three-legged round tripod, and carefully felt every inch of the texture and structure of the tripod. As time went by, the connection between him and the tripod became closer and closer, as if he could hear the breathing and heartbeat of the tripod.
On this day, Gu Sheng closed his eyes and sat in meditation again, and began to temper his three-legged round tripod. He was seen making seals with his hands and muttering something in his mouth, as if communicating with the universe. Suddenly, he opened his eyes suddenly and pushed his hands forward!
"Rumble--" A loud noise came, and huge waves surged in Gu Sheng's sea of suffering. Among the waves, a golden three-legged round tripod slowly rose! It exudes dazzling light, as if it is about to break through the sky!
"Successful!" Gu Sheng shouted excitedly. He knew that he had finally forged a real three-legged round tripod! This tripod will accompany him on his journey to a higher level of cultivation! Become a solid foundation for his pursuit of Tao!
The night is as dark as ink, and the stars are twinkling. Gu Sheng sat cross-legged on the old wooden bed of Uncle Jiang's house, closed his eyes and concentrated, entering a mysterious state of cultivation. His cultivation has reached the secret realm of the Wheel and Sea, and he has opened up the Sea of Suffering. At this time, he is using all his strength to activate his skills and refine the divine patterns.
"Buzz buzz—" As the technique continued, the wheel of life under Gu Sheng's navel began to rotate slowly, emitting a faint light. The phantoms of mountains, rivers, lakes, seas, flowers, birds, and animals emerged in the light, as if a miniature world was being performed inside his body. The golden waves are rolling in the sea of suffering, and the aura is so powerful that it is like thousands of horses galloping, shocking the hearts of the people.
Gu Sheng's body is an ancient holy body. When it moves, it is golden and the golden light flows, as if a golden god of war has descended into the world. He stretched out his palm and patted it gently, and a golden palm print appeared out of thin air and slowly dissipated in the air. This is the unique symbol of the ancient holy body, representing unparalleled physical power.
At this time, Gu Sheng's brows were furrowed as he was trying to condense the divine patterns into the shape of a tripod. This process was extremely difficult. Although he had carved the imprint of the round tripod with three legs and two ears in his mind, it would take a very high level of understanding and a long period of polishing to condense it into shape in the sea of suffering.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the house. Gu Sheng opened his eyes, frowned slightly, and felt an ominous premonition in his heart. He walked out of the house and saw Old Man Jiang standing at the door nervously.
"Xiao Sheng, something happened." Old Uncle Jiang's voice was trembling. "The Li family and the Wang family got into a fight. It seems that the Wang family burned the Li family's goods and detained their people."
When Gu Sheng heard this, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes. He thought to himself: This is an excellent opportunity! He can take advantage of this dispute, fish in troubled waters, and get what he wants. However, he asked calmly on the surface: "Old man, what exactly is going on?"
Old Man Jiang sighed and told what happened in detail. After Gu Sheng heard this, he already had some thoughts in his mind. He patted Old Man Jiang on the shoulder and said, "Uncle, don't worry, leave this matter to me."
After that, he turned back to the house, put on a suit of black clothes, and sneaked into the night quietly. Relying on the shadow hiding skill and the carefree immortal steps, he easily avoided the patrolling guards and arrived at the Wang Family Villa.
Gu Sheng found the detained manager Zhang, rescued him and ordered him to set fire and spread rumors. Although Manager Zhang didn't know why, he still followed Gu Sheng's instructions. Soon, flames shot into the sky, and the entire Wang Family Villa fell into chaos.
"Fire! Fire!" Manager Zhang shouted loudly, "The young master of the Li family wants to destroy the entire Wang family!" His shouts echoed in the night sky, like a fire, instantly igniting the anger of both families.
The Wang family members fled in panic, while the Li family members came after hearing the news.
When they saw the Wang Family Villa with flames and smoke billowing into the sky, the anger and hatred in their hearts were instantly ignited.
A fierce conflict soon broke out between the two sides, and the situation got out of control.
Gu Sheng took the opportunity to secretly add fuel to the flames. He used his spiritual consciousness to control the spread direction of the flames, making the fire grow bigger and bigger.
At the same time, he also used the grass and vine demon soul to release a corrosive aura, making people on both sides even more confused.
The scene became increasingly chaotic, and the losses on both sides became increasingly heavy.
The news quickly spread back to Qingfeng Town, and people from the Li family and the Wang family rushed to check the situation.
When they saw the tragic situation in front of them, the anger and hatred in their hearts became even stronger.
The families on both sides were completely torn apart and started a life-and-death struggle.
Just as the fierce battle between the two sides was in full swing, a powerful aura suddenly came from the distance.
This breath was as heavy as a mountain, making everyone feel an invisible sense of oppression.
Immediately afterwards, a figure fell from the sky and landed at the center of the conflict between the two parties.
The person who came was a middle-aged man. He was wearing brocade clothes and had a majestic and profound face.
His appearance caused both parties to stop what they were doing and look up.
"Stop it!" the middle-aged man shouted coldly, with unquestionable majesty in his voice, "How can you behave like this when you kill each other?!"
His voice echoed in the night air, like a heavy hammer hitting everyone's heart.
People on both sides lowered their heads, not daring to look at the middle-aged man.
They knew in their hearts that this person's strength was unfathomable and he was definitely not someone they could afford to offend.
The middle-aged man looked around and continued: "From today on, I don't want to see any more conflicts and fights. If you continue like this, it will only plunge Qingfeng Town into deeper chaos."
Although his voice was calm, it revealed an unquestionable firmness and determination.
People on both sides stood silently, as if shocked and moved by the middle-aged man's words.
They knew in their hearts that this person was not only powerful, but also had a heart that loved peace and justice.
And this sudden conflict gradually subsided in the reprimand.
Gu Sheng did not show up immediately. He hid in the dark and observed everything silently.
When he saw the middle-aged man appear and stop the conflict between the two sides, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He knew that this dispute had achieved the effect he expected.
Now, all he needed to do was wait for the opportunity, fish in troubled waters, and get what he wanted - the "source" collected by the Li family.
The night was as dark as ink, the moonlight was blocked by thick clouds, and only a few sparse stars flickered in the night sky.
In this deep night, a figure quietly sneaked into the treasure house of the Li family.
That was Gu Sheng, he was like a black dragon that had been dormant for a long time, and finally showed his prowess at this moment.
His cultivation had reached the secret realm of the wheel sea and opened up the sea of suffering.
When he activated his skills, the phantoms of mountains, rivers, lakes, seas, flowers, birds and beasts appeared on his wheel of life, the golden waves were rolling endlessly, and the breath was mighty, as if to swallow up the world.
Gu Sheng possessed an ancient holy body, with golden light flowing through his body, as if a god of war had descended to the world.
He carefully avoided guards and traps, as if he was strolling in his own backyard.
"Squeak--" The door of the treasure house slowly opened, making a dull sound.
This faint sound was particularly harsh in the quiet night.
Gu Sheng frowned slightly, but did not stop.
He flashed and disappeared into the darkness.
The treasure house was full of treasures.
Gu Sheng's eyes were only attracted by those crystal clear, softly glowing "source" stones.
They were like stars in the night sky, flashing with attractive light.
"Haha, these 'source' stones are all mine!" Gu Sheng was ecstatic, but he did not immediately take the "source" stones away. Instead, he looked around vigilantly and carefully reached out his hand after confirming that there were no traps.
At this moment, a cold and stern voice suddenly sounded in the treasure house: "Who dares to trespass into the Li family treasure house?!"
Gu Sheng was startled and said "not good" in his heart, and his figure disappeared instantly.
"Swoosh--" a sound of breaking through the air sounded, followed by a scream.
It turned out that someone triggered the hidden mechanism in the treasure house and was injured by a hidden weapon.
Gu Sheng cursed in his heart "bad luck", he knew that his whereabouts had been exposed at this time, and he had to fight quickly.
So he no longer hesitated, and directly used a powerful skill to collect all those "source" stones.
"Where are you going!" At this moment, a figure rushed out from the dark and rushed straight towards Gu Sheng. (End of this chapter)
