nAt noon, the convoy stopped by a stream and started a fire to cook.

n“Urgh!”

n“Urgh, urgh, urgh!”

nA group of male disciples were already lying by the stream, throwing up all over their bodies.

nThe female disciples, on the other hand, were much more reserved. They used the excuse of checking the surroundings to hide behind the trees in the distance.

nHowever, they did not return for quite a while, and it was obvious that they had vomited quite a lot.

nThe culprit, Fang Yuan, was still in the room on the back of the tiger, in closed-door cultivation studying about Vital Gu.

nGu Tianqing clutched his stomach and looked at the room with hatred. “I really… underestimated you… urgh…”

nHe was halfway through his sentence when he vomited again.

nThe disciple at the side had a twisted expression, gritting his teeth. “Senior Gu, this kid is not easy to deal with. He is at the same realm as you, and he also has Platinum and Gold quality Gu worms. I’m afraid his

nstrength is above yours.”

n“Hmph, with the sect master’s help, not to mention Platinum quality Gu worms, even if he had Diamond quality Gu, I can subdue him!”

nGu Tianqing did not admit defeat. “I wonder what the sect master sees in him, to think he would put him in such a high position.”

n“Senior, I have an idea.” A disciple suddenly said.

n“Speak!”

n“Why don’t we join hands to challenge him. Even if he has high grade Gu worms, so what? He did not subdue them by himself, so the compatibility is definitely not high. They are probably not his main battle Gu. The

nfew of us are inner sect elites, we can definitely force out his weakness, and in the end, Senior Gu, you will defeat him in one battle. When that time comes, will he still have the face to be the team leader?”

n“Good plan!”

nGu Tianqing’s eyes lit up, “Which one of you will go first?”

n“Let me do it!”

nA disciple at the fourth layer of the Enlightenment Realm said.

n“Junior Qin has both offense and defense. He is indeed a good candidate for the first battle!” Gu Tianqing was very satisfied.

nTherefore, after a few more discussions, they all walked towards Fang Yuan’s direction.

nRoar!

nThe light chasing thunder tiger sensed the hostility and immediately issued a warning.

nThe four male disciples looked at each other and did not dare to move forward.

n“Cough.”

nGu Tianqing used a cough to hide his fear towards light chasing thunder tiger, and said loudly, “Senior Fang, Can you come out and meet us?”

n“What is it?” Fang Yuan’s calm voice sounded.

nGu Tianqing gave that Junior Qin a look.

nThe latter immediately understood, and he said, “This time’s Gu Dao convention is related to our sect’s honor, but as the leader you know very little about our strength. Wwhy don’t we spar with each other, so that you

ncan make better arrangements.”

n“Alright, you guys fight, I will observe.”

nFang Yuan opened a window and yawned on the cushion behind him, looking at them lazily.

nGu Tianqing saw his expression and was furious.

nWe were shocked to death, vomited and had diarrhea, but you want to sleep?

nHe cupped his fists and raised his voice, “I think that it’s best for the leader to experience it personally and treat it seriously. If there’s a mistake in the deployment in the future that leads to a loss and the sect master

nblames us, we won’t be able to plead for leniency.”

nOh!

nUsing his master’s name to suppress him?

nFang Yuan laughed lightly and jumped out of the window.

n“How do we spar?” He followed the other party’s words and asked.

nGu Tianqing smiled and said, “Since it’s to understand our strength, we all will naturally will go on stage. Junior Qin…”

n“I’m here.” Junior Qin rubbed his hands together.

n“Bring out your best skills, let the leader take a good look.”

n“Alright!”

nThe other two disciples slowly retreated with Gu Tianqing, giving way to the two of them.

nJunior Qin raised his five fingers, and two Gu worms flew out from his acupoints, turning into two streams of light that surrounded his body, condensing into a green shield-like protective wall.

nGreen Essence Sword Gu (Silver quality, rank three): After injecting spirit essence, it can release sword light to harm the enemy, and use the sword and shield to protect itself.

n“Senior Fang, sorry if I offend you!”

nSaying so, his body moved slightly, and as he sprinted, he raised his hand to shoot out several green sword lights.

n“Interesting.”

nFang Yuan felt that this Gu worm was not bad. It had both offense and defense, and it could be used in multiple ways.

nUnfortunately, its ability balance meant that neither was outstanding.

nIf it was used to deal with Gu masters with low cultivation levels, the group battle effect would be great.

nBut against Fang Yuan, a fifth layer Enlightenment Realm Gu master, it was not enough.

nFang Yuan did not hesitate, and he used Phantom Steps.

nUnder the high speed buff, he was so fast that afterimages appeared behind him.

nA few sword rays hit nothing as expected.

n“Such speed.” Junior Qin was greatly shocked. His heart suddenly jumped, and he subconsciously channeled his spirit essence into the sword and shield to protect himself.

nBang!

nThere was a muffled sound.

nFang Yuan had appeared behind him at some point in time. He struck down with the worm rod, and under the support of the nine-turns rod technique, the rod shattered Junior Qin’s green sword and shield.

not only that, his body was also sent flying under the immense force, crashing heavily into a tree trunk in the distance, looking rather pathetic.

nBut since his strength was not ordinary, he naturally would not be defeated just because of this attack.

nHe turned around and prepared to attack with the second Gu worm.

nHowever, Fang Yuan’s speed was extremely fast, using speed to fight. Before his opponent could see the situation clearly, he struck the back with his rod again.

n“Ouch!”

nThe rod struck Junior Qin’s skull, causing him to scream in pain.

nFang Yuan did not stop, and the rod fell like raindrops.

nSeveral breaths later, Junior Qin had already been hit countless times.

n“Stop! Senior Fang! I… 1 admit defeat!”

nFang Yuan’s raised hand suddenly froze.

nLooking at Junior Qin whose head had turned into a pig’s head, he stopped and held back the urge to laugh, then he said seriously, “Your offensive and defensive abilities are considered average within the fourth layer

nof the Enlightenment Realm, but your speed is too slow. If you meet a Gu master with wind, light, lightning, cloud, any type of elemental movement type Gu worms, you will only be beaten up.”

n“Senior is right…”

nJunior Qin had a desolate expression. He was already beaten up to the point that he had no mood left.

nSeeing this, Gu Tianqing tugged on another disciple’s sleeve, and he said in a low voice, “Junior Zhou, I see that Fang Yuan’s speed is extremely fast, but his offensive ability seems to be lacking. You have several

ndefensive type Gu worms, why don’t you go all out and defend, allowing him to attack. If you can block the attacks, he will lose face.”

n“Understood.”

nJunior Zhou did not hesitate, and he took a step forward. “Senior Fang, let me see what you can do.”

nFang Yuan stretched his body. “Come.”

n“Ha!”

nJunior Zhou’s aura rose, and his feet were planted on the ground.

nAs his spirit essence surged, a few rays of light shone, forming a thick golden barrier around his body.

n“Senior, Bring it on!”

nGolden Light Barrier: Uses several defensive Gu worms as a medium, forming a formation, creating a golden light barrier.

n“It has some substance.”

nFang Yuan could not help but laugh.

nThe Gu Immortal Sect was truly full of talents. He had never heard of a Gu master using himself as a formation core with the Gu worms forming the barrier.

nHis defense was definitely very high!

nAred light flashed in his eyes.

nHe was taking this seriously!

nAt the same time as the Bloodthirsty ability entered his body, liquid spirit essence flowed into the rod, causing the light to shine brightly, carrying the power to stimulate the heavens as it struck the golden light.

nJunior Zhou’s body sank slightly. His face was stern as he took the blow head-on.

nHowever, there was no reaction.

nThe light barrier had only reduced by a thin layer, and it immediately recovered under the spirit essence’s subsequent replenishment.

nGu Tianqing couldn’t help but smile smugly when he saw this.

n“Senior Fang, you have to be serious. Although Junior Zhou only has four layers of cultivation, even I would find it difficult to break this golden light barrier unless he… he…”

nAt the same time, the Soul Devouring light lit up.

nThe blood-colored light swept over and devoured the golden light completely.

nOnly Junior Zhou, who was sitting on the ground with a pale face, was left.

nFang Yuan smiled faintly and helped him finish the second half of his sentence. “Unless he runs out of spirit essence, correct?”.

n
