Chapter 557: Kill It While It's Sick
When the group gathered again, Gu Sheng found that everyone's divine power had changed.
For a moment, his smile grew even bigger.
"Not bad, everyone is improving faster than the other. If I'm not mistaken, Lan Yao has broken through, right?"
Hearing his words, Lan Yao nodded with bright eyes.
"Yes, the bottleneck that has troubled me for several years has finally been broken through this time! Gu Sheng, do you want to compete with me?"
"Lan Yao, are you crazy? He is Gu Sheng!"
Bai Yu stopped him and rolled his eyes at him.
"You can't even beat me, and you still want to fight him? You have broken through, not become an immortal!"
Hearing this, Lan Yao calmed down a little and scratched his head embarrassedly.
"I was just talking casually."
"You are so bold."
"Just talking, what's there to be afraid of?"
Looking at the two people bickering, Gu Sheng couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Shilou, how are you guys?"
"Brother Sheng, our strength has also improved a lot!"
"That's good, go pack up, we'll leave tomorrow."
Hearing this, everyone was a little confused.
"Gu Sheng, has something happened again? Why are you leaving so quickly?"
Gu Sheng told everyone about the matter of Shengya Lay Buddhist, and when they learned that they were going to Dongshan, everyone realized it.
"Okay, we'll leave tomorrow!"
After everyone left, Gu Sheng went directly to Hongmei.
After knocking on the door for a long time, no one responded, so he turned to Wushuang Lay Buddhist.
Sure enough, he saw Hongmei as soon as he entered the door.
The two were working on the herbs, and Hongmei sat close to Wushuang Lay Buddhist, leaning her head on her shoulder from time to time. The two were talking and laughing, and they looked like a master-disciple relationship.
I have to admit that Wushuang Lay Buddhist is really good to Hongmei.
She has so many people under her, but she only favors Hongmei. Maybe it's because she is the eldest disciple, and she always has to give some preference.
After making some noise to attract the two people's attention, Gu Sheng walked over.
"Greetings, Master."
Wushuang raised his hand and looked at him with a smile: "Gu Sheng, are they all out?"
"Yes, thanks to Wushuang, their divine powers have been improved. We will set off for Dongshan tomorrow."
Hearing this, Hongmei stood up at once.
"Leaving tomorrow? So soon?"
"They are all out of retreat, and it's time for us to go."
After Gu Sheng finished speaking, Hongmei looked at Wushuang with reluctance.
Master Wushuang patted her hands and said, "You must listen to Gu Sheng on the way, don't act on impulse. I have spoiled you, and it's time to temper your temper. Follow Gu Sheng well, you can learn a lot from him."
"Master, I can't bear to leave you..."
"Silly girl, I'm in Yunhai, you can see me whenever you come back, why don't you bear to leave?"
"I'm worried about the poison in your body..."
"Gu Sheng has already researched a way to suppress it for me, and I will conquer the rest bit by bit. After you leave, I can concentrate on my research behind closed doors. You're always disturbing my mind here, so it's time to leave."
Hearing this, Hongmei could only nod helplessly.
"Master, if there is anything, please send us a message. I promise to come back as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, you are my eldest disciple. I will not hide anything from you. Go and pack your things. Leave early tomorrow. Don't waste time on the road. Layman Shengya and her men are all cunning. You must listen to Gu Sheng on the way and don't lose your temper."
Hearing the repeated instructions of Layman Wushuang, Hongmei looked up at Gu Sheng, then nodded with a red face.
"Don't worry, I know."
Early in the morning of this day, everyone gathered in front of Gu Sheng's door.
After counting the number of people, Gu Sheng took everyone and Layman Wushuang to say goodbye, and set off on the road to Dongshan together.
After leaving the sea of clouds, Gu Sheng released a spiritual power and explored all the way forward.
Seeing his free use of spiritual power, Hongmei was a little curious.
"Gu Sheng, there is no strange breath nearby, why did you suddenly release your spiritual power?"
"Lead the way."
"Lead the way? What are you looking for with your spiritual power?"
"The breath of Layman Shengya, Layman Wushuang gave me something with her breath on it."
"What if she is not in Dongshan?"
"She finally disappeared there, and she must have stayed there for a long time. We will always find it if we keep looking for it like this."
Hongmei curled her lips after understanding what this meant.
"Gu Sheng, you are really smart."
Suddenly praised, Gu Sheng couldn't help laughing.
"Not bad, let's go."
The group moved forward all the way, and after two days of running around, they entered a dense forest.
There was no sunlight in the dense forest, and it was extremely dark everywhere. From time to time, you could hear the roar of wild beasts. The road under your feet was muddy, causing everyone to move forward slowly.
Gu Sheng walked in front and led the way.
After walking in the dense forest for a whole day, they still didn't see the sun.
Looking up at the sky, Lan Yao pinched his eyebrows with a headache.
"Gu Sheng, we have been walking for a day. When will this road end?"
"Don't worry, we can always get out."
Seeing Gu Sheng still looking calm, Lan Yao was so angry that she almost laughed.
At this moment, a breath suddenly came from a distance.
Gu Sheng stood in the front, and the breath fell directly on him, causing his face to change suddenly.
"Gu Sheng, let's take a break. It's been a day, and we need to replenish our energy."
After Lan Yao finished speaking, Gu Sheng shook his head with a serious face.
"We could rest just now, but now we can't. There are monsters coming."
Hearing this, everyone was shocked. They quickly approached Gu Sheng and surrounded him in a semicircle.
Gu Sheng turned around and blocked Hongmei behind him, and took out the Fire Spirit Dagger.
"Bai Yu, you go with me, Lan Yao, you protect the people of the Mirror Gate."
Hearing this, Hongmei hurriedly said: "Gu Sheng, we are not as weak as you think, I can fight side by side with you."
"With us here, we don't need you for the time being. Just stay here and protect yourself. Bai Yu, let's go."
After Gu Sheng finished speaking, Bai Yu hurriedly stepped forward and walked side by side with him.
The two of them quickly shuttled through the dense forest and found the monsters hiding in the dark by following the breath.
The monster looked like a deer, with two extremely sharp horns on its head, and the two horns were half a meter long, which was very powerful.
Looking at the monster's green eyes, Gu Sheng curled his lips coldly.
"You are the one who led us here? If you want to die, just say so!"
As soon as the voice fell, Gu Sheng jumped forward and swung the Fire Spirit Dagger in his hand straight at the monster.
A red light flashed, and the monster actually dodged it nimbly.
Gu Sheng's spiritual energy hit the ground, and it smashed a hole in the muddy ground.
Retracting the Fire Spirit Dagger, looking at the monster again, Gu Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly.
"No wonder you dared to lead us here, it turns out you have two brushes, but you led the wrong person, you must die today!"
The aura around him was released, and Gu Sheng stepped forward again. He turned his wrist, and the Fire Spirit Dagger quickly drew a circle in the air, and a stream of spiritual energy exploded, directly filling the entire space.
The monster was wrapped in it, and it roared immediately.
It pawed with its four hooves, lowered its head slightly, and the sharp horns on its head were facing Gu Sheng's vital point, and it rushed over quickly!
Gu Sheng was not afraid either, and confronted it head-on.
The divine power of the man and the beast collided fiercely, and there was a bang.
In an instant, the whole space shook, and Gu Sheng took two steps back, immediately stabilized his heels, and rushed towards the monster again.
No mistake, one sentence, one content, one content, one 6, one book, one bar, take a look!
The fire spirit dagger in his hand turned again, and stabbed fiercely at the neck of the monster!
Sensing his intention, the monster quickly took a step back and pretended to escape.
Seeing its movement, Gu Sheng's footsteps quickly turned to the right, and the fire spirit dagger stabbed it fiercely!
In an instant, blood splattered, and Gu Sheng only felt a foul smell coming towards him, and immediately blocked it with divine power.
"Bai Yu, come and help!"
Hearing his words, Bai Yu, who had never dared to act rashly, stepped forward quickly.
The two stood on the left and the right, and Gu Sheng was holding the bloody Fire Spirit Dagger in his hand.
The monster stood a few steps away from the two, and its aura was bursting out strongly. It stared at Gu Sheng fiercely, as if it wanted to kill him.
Gu Sheng looked at it, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He took a quick step forward and stabbed the Fire Spirit Dagger in his hand again. As he kept raising his hand, flames flew out from his palm.
When Gu Sheng attracted most of the monster's attention, Bai Yu began to move secretly.
He came out from the right, and the long knife in his hand chopped directly at the monster.
The monster noticed it and immediately attacked in the opposite direction.
Bai Yu was entangled with it, dodging several times, but his hands did not give in at all.
Seeing that he attracted the attention of the monster, Gu Sheng stepped forward ghostly, and while he wanted to kill Bai Yu, he stabbed the Fire Spirit Dagger in his hand fiercely, directly piercing his Dantian!
In an instant, the breath of the monster began to dissipate.
Gu Sheng adhered to the principle of killing it while it was sick, and stabbed the Fire Spirit Dagger again and again until the monster fell limply, and there was no trace of spiritual energy on its body. He stopped.
Bai Yu walked forward and asked breathlessly: "Gu Sheng, is there anything useful on this monster?"
"Horn, cut it off to make a dagger."
Understanding what he meant, Bai Yu immediately cut off the monster's horn.
Gu Sheng put the things into the storage ring, and the two walked back.
Along the way, Gu Sheng was always exploring, and he made sure that there were no other monsters, so he quickened his pace.
At this time, Hongmei and others were waiting anxiously. When they saw a figure in the distance, everyone immediately became alert.
Feeling the change in their aura, Gu Sheng hurriedly released his divine power.
Shi Lou was the first to sense it, and hurriedly shouted: "Don't act rashly, Gu Sheng and Bai Yu are back!"
Hearing his words, everyone immediately put away their breath and rushed forward.
"Brother Sheng, are you okay?"
"Gu Sheng, are you injured?"
Seeing everyone's anxious look, Gu Sheng smiled and shook his head.
"Don't worry, we're fine."
Hearing this, Er Gou and Huang Shan immediately circled around the two of them for a few times, and confirmed that they were really not injured, and then they breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother Sheng, you scared us to death. How could killing a monster make such a big noise?"
"This monster is quite powerful. Bai Yu and I worked together to take it down. Let's move forward as soon as possible, so that other monsters won't come here after hearing the news."
Understanding what he meant, everyone nodded and followed his footsteps again.
Gu Sheng led everyone forward along the way, following the path that the professor had taken. Sure enough, after walking for an hour, they finally saw the sky outside.
It was dark at this time, and everyone realized that they had been trapped inside for two whole days!
"Finally got out."
After Lan Yao finished speaking, the others also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yes, we finally got out."
Seeing everyone's tired faces, Gu Sheng pointed to a giant tree next to him.
"We won't rush tonight. Let's stay here for one night to recover our strength."
Hearing this, everyone was overjoyed and hurried over to rest.
When a burst of snoring sounded, Hongmei came to Gu Sheng.
"Gu Sheng, are monsters difficult to deal with?"
Hearing this, Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows.
"You haven't killed monsters?"
"I have killed them, but I haven't encountered any powerful ones. Can you tell me about today's monsters?"
After thinking about it, Gu Sheng lay on the ground, put his hands together behind his head, and talked about today's experience.
Hongmei listened carefully and simply lay down beside him.
Gu Sheng was a little surprised and turned his head to look at her.
Hongmei imitated him and put her hands behind her head, looking at the stars while listening to him. She was very serious. Gu Sheng could see her curled eyelashes and tall nose from the side, which made him couldn't help but curl his lips.
"Do you want to kill a powerful monster with your own hands?"
After Gu Sheng finished speaking, Hongmei immediately propped up her head and looked at him, nodding seriously.
"If you want to, can you take me with you next time?"
"Of course, but you can't be stubborn. I promised Master Wushuang that I would protect you."
"Don't worry, I won't, then we have a deal."
Seeing Hongmei's outstretched finger, Gu Sheng smiled and hooked it.
When the two hands were hooked together, the smile on Gu Sheng's face became a little bigger.
He only now realized that a girl's hands could be so small.
"Rest early, we have to travel early tomorrow morning."
Hongmei nodded, and didn't change her place, and lay down next to him to rest.
Gu Sheng summoned a small tripod to cover everyone, and then closed his eyes.
When it was bright, Shi Lou and others brought back a lot of game.
"Brother Sheng, look, these are all what we fought back!"
Seeing the things in his hand, Gu Sheng pinched his eyebrows.
"Next time, don't run around by yourself. What if you encounter a monster?"
"Brother Sheng, don't worry. We didn't dare to run too far. We fought around. You will know if there is any movement. Get up and eat."
Gu Sheng couldn't do anything about them, so he could only nod.
In the next few days, they kept walking on the road, until a week later, they finally arrived at the foot of Dongshan Mountain.
As soon as they arrived at the foot of the mountain, Gu Sheng felt a different breath.
When everyone was still moving forward, he stretched out his hand with a serious face to stop them.
"Don't act rashly. The people from the Fanzimen may be here." (End of this chapter)
