Chapter 91
Second Transformation, Fifth Rank: A Shocking Gu Creature!
After instructing his subordinates on what to do.
Gu Lin headed to the main hall of the East Temple.
In terms of martial arts and Confucianism, once the fifty-five subordinates return after completing their missions, the martial arts will inevitably reach the Knowing Destiny Realm, and will not only advance by one or two levels.
Confucianism and Taoism can also be improved.
Although he had subordinates to handle things, he couldn't just sit idle.
You can eliminate evil all by yourself and still accumulate enough merit points.
This time, his goal is to explore the Dao of Techniques and enhance his strength in the Dao of Gu.
Entering the majestic hall, Gu Lin headed straight for the upper level of the mission hall.
As a trial centurion, I can now proceed to the seventh floor!
I searched for 45 minutes.
Gu Lin took two files with him.
Around forty years old, eight feet tall, with a red birthmark on his left cheek, a mid-level sorcerer, and a martial artist at the third level of the Knowing Destiny realm. He once slaughtered an entire village in one night, dug up the village's ancestral graves, and left behind skeletal remains and several discarded talismans inside. Presumably, he used the eerie death aura and the skeletons to practice array formation techniques.
It is now located in the area of Fuhu Town on the border of Chuan and An prefectures.
Contribution points: 1361.
Another file.
A lustful and wicked woman in her early thirties, with a beautiful and dignified appearance, a gourd-shaped figure, and a strangely seductive voice, possessing the cultivation of the third-level lower stage of Gu Dao, once held a banquet to kill a hundred people, raping and humiliating a hundred young men in a day and a night, and then slaughtering them all afterwards.
According to intelligence, she has appeared in Chaisang County in northern Chuzhou, and is very likely hiding there.
Contribution points: 1289.
Gu Lin returned to the government office, took some spirit stones, and left Luoxia Mountain.
.......
Eight days later, in Chaisang County.
Wanbao Auction House is also the only large-scale auction house in Chaisang County.
A figure in white robes stepped inside.
Head straight to the top floor.
Various strange insects are sold on the top floor.
Gu Lin looked at the shopkeeper:
"Where is the person in charge of the auction house?"
The old shopkeeper beamed with joy:
"Young master wishes to purchase Gu worms; this old man can introduce some."
A corner of the gilded token slipped from Gu Lin's sleeve.
The old shopkeeper's attitude changed abruptly, and he left with utmost respect.
A moment later, an elderly man in fine clothes entered the VIP room.
He clasped his hands in a gesture of respect.
Although the other party had changed their appearance, they still had a very young aura.
Gu Lin slammed the painting on the table and got straight to the point:
"Dongsi is hunting down a vicious Gu cultivator; this is her portrait."
"I need Wanbao Auction House's full assistance!"
"Announce that the auction house has acquired a new batch of Tier 3 Gu worms, and the original Tier 3 Gu worms can be sold at a discount."
On the way here, he came up with a plan.
Finding her in Chaisang County would be like finding a needle in a haystack.
The only option is fishing.
Not everyone is as wealthy as the members of the Holy Land. Ninety-nine percent of the cultivators in the Divine Dynasty are poor in resources, especially Gu cultivators. Once they hear that third-level Gu worms are on sale, they will definitely be tempted.
The old man accepted the order and left.
.......
For seven consecutive days, only five Gu cultivators came upon hearing the news. Despite the discount, the price was still too high, so they had to leave disappointed.
Cultivators of the Gu Dao are indeed scarce. If martial arts manuals were on sale, the auction house would be packed with people.
Until the eleventh day.
A handsome young man went up to the top floor to observe the various Gu insects.
But he was a martial artist and had no trace of Gu cultivation.
The auction house manager's eyes darted around, and he coldly refused to let them in.
"Please leave, esteemed guest. Only those who cultivate Gu can purchase Gu worms. If one is not careful, one may explode and die, which will inevitably ruin the auction house's reputation. Or, if one cannot control the Gu worms and harms innocent people, our auction house cannot bear the responsibility."
The young man memorized the price of the Gu worms and then left.
That night.
An old woman with an ugly appearance and a deliberately hunched back walked up to the top floor of the auction house.
She stood in front of the counter.
Suddenly, a figure slowly walked over.
"A banquet to slaughter a hundred men, and you're certainly overflowing with lust!"
A cold voice rang out.
The old woman was struck dumb. Almost instantly, a six-winged Gu worm appeared in her palm, and she leaped down from the windowsill with incredible speed.
Gu Lin unleashed his max-level Lingxu Divine Movement, leaping off the windowsill as well. A surge of boundless energy erupted, and a purple net of heaven and earth descended.
The old woman tore open the paper, which was as thin as a cicada's wing, revealing a beautiful and dignified face. At the same time, another Gu worm appeared in her palm, with a pink body and Gu powder spreading everywhere.
In an instant, an ambiguous atmosphere filled the air.
Love rises with the wind.
Gu Lin slowed his pace slightly, the image of the beautiful young woman heartbroken flashing before his eyes, his own heart breaking, enveloped in an overwhelming sense of love.
"Die!"
The beautiful young woman's eyes were filled with murderous intent. A three-stage Nether Ice Gu appeared in her palm, and a chilling aura swept over her. In the next instant, it hit her face and almost froze Gu Lin into an ice sculpture, freezing his internal organs.
However, a massive burst of blood mist suddenly erupted from Gu Lin's body, accompanied by the buzzing of the Anti-Sorrow Gu. The icy cold energy changed direction and headed straight for the beautiful young woman.
The latter's pupils constricted sharply as he unleashed the Three-Turn Vajra Gu, struggling to resist, but his arms were visibly enveloped in ice.
She was terrified.
The other party is.....
Confucianism and Taoism, and the practice of witchcraft.
Could he be the champion of the Chuzhou Grand Competition?!
Gu Lin's body was brimming with yang energy. Empowered by the Yang Cauldron Gu, he unleashed eighteen consecutive, uninterrupted dragon-roar palm strikes. The Moral Pavilion emerged, and he spoke with the words of Heavenly Law:
"His crimes are heinous; he should be executed on the spot!"
The martial, Confucian, and Gu paths were all unleashed simultaneously, with the Confucian path not even employing the strength of the Divine Palace Realm.
A beautiful young woman died on the spot!
Gu Lin was still shaken, almost blinded by the Gu worm that entangled him in love. Fortunately, he had a strong will, otherwise it would have been truly dangerous.
My natural talent and aptitude are indeed extremely poor!
But his willpower is absolutely top-notch!
In the distance, the auction house managers, their expressions filled with awe, bowed respectfully.
"Greetings, Lord Gu!"
Everyone knows who this young man is.
The young leader of Chuzhou, a master of Confucianism, martial arts, and Gu poison, forcefully crushed the Brahma Battle Body and the Embryo of Righteousness in the Holy Land Grand Competition.
A white crane from Luoxia Mountain once circled over Chaisang County. On that day, Chaisang County was filled with the sounds of gongs and drums, spreading the name of Gu Lin!
Gu Lin left calmly.
Consider the spirit stones the wicked woman carries as payment to the auction house.
At that moment, specks of golden light appeared in his mind, converging into the three large characters "Book of Merit".
[Slay the first-class wicked woman and you will be rewarded with the method to refine the Flying Gu.]
[Martial Arts Merit Points: 6156/10000]
[Confucian and Taoist Merit Points: 756/80000]
[Merit Points in Taoist Arts: 0/1000]
[Witchcraft Merit Points: 4723/10000]
In an instant, the evil aura within Gu Lingkong's acupoint surged dramatically, directly reaching the fifth level of the second stage.
Yet another Class A crime!
Although it cannot compare to Sima Weijia's fifth-class crimes, it is still one of only two first-class crimes to date.
Gu Lin immediately checked the merit book.
[The Flying Gu: Refining this Gu allows one to fly in mid-air for the duration of half a cup of tea. After one use, the Gu will slumber for three days.]
[The method of refining involves the Hidden Wing Gu, Weightless Gu, Gale Gu, and Spirit Light Gu mutually devouring each other, followed by three mid-grade Yellow-rank Gu herbs and one thousand blood crystals. After five days, the Flying Gu can be evolved.]
Gu Lin's face lit up with ecstatic joy.
I almost wanted to shout "How magnificent!"
This is the ultimate escape tool!
Although it is used once every three days, it only lasts for the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea.
But it's flying!
Lightness skills and agility seem so useless in front of it!
"A world-shaking Gu." Gu Lin smiled brightly. With it, he could finally say he truly possessed something to save his life.
Gu Lin headed to the main hall of the East Temple.
In terms of martial arts and Confucianism, once the fifty-five subordinates return after completing their missions, the martial arts will inevitably reach the Knowing Destiny Realm, and will not only advance by one or two levels.
