professional immortal master

Chapter 231 The Old Man of Maple Forest City

On the way, three days passed without knowing it.

In three days, Gu Cheng successfully completed the expected breakthrough work.

Not only did he raise the "Tongtian Sword Art" from the fifth level to the sixth level, but at the same time, he also completely absorbed and refined the profound meanings of the sword formula that flooded into his mind, and truly became his own. It is said that he has completely mastered the content of the sixth layer of "Tongtian Sword Art".

Of course, that newly derived swordsmanship is also included, and they have been mastered together.

Although the realm of cultivation has not improved, it is still the realm of the first Jindan stage, but the upgrade of "Tongtian Sword Art" has greatly improved Gu Cheng's strength, not to mention the transformation like a reborn, but facing the former self again, Gu Cheng Already confident of victory, this is the change and confidence brought to him by the sixth level of "Tongtian Sword Art".

Now, his strength has truly reached the average level of the disciples of the main peak of the Zijin Mountain lineage. Before that, he was actually far behind.

After all, the cultivation bases of the main peak disciples of Zijin Mountain are generally in the late stage of Golden Core or even the perfect state of Golden Core. Compared with them, Gu Cheng's cultivation base in the early stage of Golden Core is really not enough. Even with the increased bonuses from top techniques such as "The Secret Technique of the Great Power of the Python Beast", his overall strength is still much inferior.

However, this time "Tongtian Sword Art" broke through from the fifth level to the sixth level, Gu Cheng's overall strength was greatly improved, which undoubtedly made up for the gap.

As a rookie disciple who has just started for only a few months, Gu Cheng's speed of improvement is actually quite amazing. For ordinary disciples, even if it takes a few years, they may not be able to reach such a level.

Unlike in those small sects and small forces, in the fiercely competitive top sect forces, as long as they can reach the average level, they can actually be regarded as leaders among their peers.

That's why there is a common saying that in the top ten super sects, as long as they can catch up with the average level and put it outside, they are geniuses.

"Da da da……"

The sound of horse hooves echoed in my ears without stopping along the way.

"Call..."

"Master Immortal, Fenglin City is ahead... Look, are you going directly into the city, or?"

Wang Dabeard stopped the carriage slowly, then turned around and asked respectfully.

While speaking, he himself quickly jumped off the carriage and stood respectfully beside the carriage.

Although the money of the immortal teacher is easier to earn, it is also much more dangerous. Wang Dabeard knows this very well, so he dared not go beyond the slightest bit or be disrespectful along the way. This in turn aroused the anger of the young master immortal in the carriage.

Fortunately, the young master Xianshi seems to have a good temper.

"Are you in Maplewood City?"

Gu Cheng poked his head out from inside the carriage and looked at the majestic city gate not far away. There were three large characters engraved on the gate tower, which was "Fenglin City". He nodded slightly. This is the destination of his journey. .

"Since you have already arrived in Fenglin City, you don't have to send me off anymore, I can enter the city by myself."

While talking, Gu Cheng got out of the carriage.

At the same time, with a shake of his right hand, three bright spirit stones appeared in front of Wang Dahuzi. Wang Dahuzi hurriedly caught them, and when he saw the three kindness crystals in his hand, his eyes couldn't help but light up immediately, and it was hard to hide his heart. Excited, "Master Immortal, you have...too many."

Three low-grade spirit stones are nothing more than a drop in the bucket to Gu Cheng, not even a drop in the bucket, but to an ordinary person, this is a lot of wealth.

One low-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for more than a hundred taels of silver, and three pieces of low-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for more than 300 taels of silver. Wang Dabeard has been driving a car for decades, and he has never received such a generous reward, so he is naturally excited.

"To me, this is nothing, just accept it." Gu Cheng smiled and waved his hand.

"But if you are going to exchange gold and silver, you'd better be careful."

Gu Cheng thought for a while, and then gave another instruction.

He wanted to give gold and silver, but he didn't have much on him. Although he didn't have any friendship with Wang Dabeard, he didn't want the coachman to be targeted by others because of these spirit stones, and even caused him to be killed. I will make a special request.

"Thank you, Master Immortal Master, for your guidance, the villain knows, the villain knows!" Wan Huzi nodded repeatedly, showing obvious gratitude.

Gu Cheng didn't say anything more.

Soon, he walked towards Fenglin City.

……

Fenglin City is not an ordinary city, but a fairy city. In other words, it is a city where monks live.

Of course, it doesn't mean that all the people in the city are monks who practice Taoism and can fly around. There are also many ordinary people in it. After all, even monks cannot live without ordinary people for many basic necessities.

It’s just that compared to other ordinary cities, the proportion of monks here is higher, and to be honest, the boundary between ordinary people and monks is not so strict. Some people are ordinary people today, maybe tomorrow, It is possible to become a monk.

Since it is a fairy city, it is naturally a little different from ordinary cities.

The higher ratio of monks is only one of the aspects, and the guarding and defense of the city is another manifestation of the difference between the two.

Compared with ordinary cities, the defense of the Immortal City is much stricter and stronger. Not only are there many monks patrolling and guarding the city walls, but the entire city is also protected by many formations. They can also resist for a period of time, and such a fairy city will basically have first-class powerhouses sitting in it.

Such first-class powerhouses are basically well-known monks who have already made a name for themselves on the mainland. They not only have advanced cultivation bases, but also have powerful supernatural powers, which are far beyond the reach of young monks like Gu Cheng.

"The entrance fee is a spirit stone."

The captain of the guard in front of the city gate was also a cultivator at the Golden Core Stage. His eyes fell on Gu Cheng, and he instantly recognized Gu Cheng's status as a cultivator, and then he spoke lightly.

Ordinary people do not need to pay fees to enter the city, but monks need to pay spiritual stones.

Because there is no threat to ordinary people, but monks may cause trouble. Of course, it is actually to increase an income.

As for Gu Cheng's identity and background, they didn't ask.

It's just a spirit stone, and Gu Cheng can't afford to worry about it. Besides, this is the rule of Fenglin City. Everyone else has paid, and he is not alone. Naturally, Gu Cheng has no opinion.

He quickly paid a piece of spirit stone, and then he successfully passed the review of the city gate, and entered Fenglin City without any delay.

"Maplewood City, it seems that it is really a little different from the game."

"However, they are similar, and there is not much difference."

Walking into the city, seeing the brocade-like scene of flowers in front of him, Gu Cheng couldn't help sighing, and at the same time couldn't help but muttered to himself.

Although this is his first time to come to Maplewood City in this life, he has been here countless times in the game in his previous life. Maplewood City is even one of his strongholds in the game, and he is simply familiar with it. It couldn't be more familiar.

The reason why he set his first "target" here was because Fenglin City was relatively close to where Heishahe was, on the one hand, and because he was very familiar with Fenglin City on the other hand.

Because of familiarity, it is easy to handle things, and his plan can be carried out smoothly.

"It's a pity that those friends in the game are no longer there. Otherwise, it might be easier, alas..."

Gu Cheng smiled and shook his head.

He did not stand still while speaking, and quickly walked forward along the street.

Fenglin City is indeed worthy of the name of Immortal City. Not only are a large number of ordinary people looking for "immortal opportunities" here, but also monks within a hundred miles like to gather here. The number of disciples of the sects of the big forces is also quite large, and all these together create the prosperity of the entire Fenglin City. Not to mention the reputation in the Central Plains, but they are famous in the surrounding area.

Walking on the streets of Fenglin City, listening to the endless yelling and selling, and listening to the noisy discussions one after another, Gu Cheng was not only not irritable, but a little smile appeared on his face.

Such a scene gave him a very familiar feeling.

But at this moment, a middle-aged man in a green robe and a felt hat ignorantly stood in front of him, blocking his way.

Gu Cheng was slightly taken aback.

Then he realized that the other party seemed to be doing it on purpose, he couldn't help but narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked, "My friend, what's the matter?"

"My master is here to invite you."

Although the middle-aged man blocking the way was only a monk at the Void Alchemy stage, he didn't have any cowardice or fear when facing Gu Cheng.

Although he said it politely, the meaning behind his words was that Gu Cheng had to go.

"We know each other?"

Hearing his words, Gu Cheng couldn't help laughing.

"I don't know." The middle-aged man shook his head honestly and answered.

"Then why should I listen to you?" Gu Cheng restrained his smile, his expression turned cold, and he asked in a bad tone.

"Uh……"

The middle-aged man couldn't help being stunned for a moment, slightly at a loss for words, and didn't know how to answer, perhaps because Gu Cheng's attitude changed too much all of a sudden, which made him a little at a loss.

"Since I don't know you, let's get out of the way. It doesn't matter whether you have something to do or not, but I do have something to do and I don't have time to chat with you here."

"Although you can't do anything in Fenglin City, if you insist on making trouble for me, then don't blame me for being rude!"

Gu Cheng didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, so he said it expressionlessly.

After saying that, Gu Cheng walked straight forward.

And at this time, the middle-aged man finally came to his senses, and immediately stopped in front of Gu Cheng again, and at the same time said anxiously, "Please listen to me."

"how?"

"Do you really want to do it with me?"

Gu Cheng couldn't help becoming a little annoyed at this moment when he was entangled with such an inexplicable person, blocking the way again and again, did this guy really think he was easy to bully?
Thinking of this, Gu Cheng's expression couldn't help turning cold.

"No, no, I just want to say that my master and you are old acquaintances, so please be sure to show your respect for a while."

Faced with Gu Cheng's tough attitude, the middle-aged man became more cautious when he spoke again. At the same time, he lowered his attitude and explained carefully.

"My old acquaintance?"

Gu Cheng smacked his mouth, and at the same time, his mind quickly recalled that he had never been to Fenglin City before, so he must have no old acquaintances in Fenglin City. It's just people, and the others don't know a few at all.

Who is this so-called old acquaintance?

For a moment, Gu Cheng couldn't help becoming curious.

He didn't think that the middle-aged man in front of him would lie to him, not to mention his keen insight, if the other party lied, he wouldn't be able to hide it from his eyes, and there was no need for the other party to lie to him at all. ,

And what made him even more curious was that the other party seemed to have been prepared for a long time, even if he arrived, he would come to Fenglin City, otherwise, he would not have found him as soon as he entered the city.

"Who is your master?" Gu Cheng asked tentatively.

Hearing Gu Cheng's question, the middle-aged man laughed instead, shook his head and explained, "After you pass by, you will naturally know that without the master's permission, I dare not speak nonsense."

Having said that, he shrugged and could only give Gu Cheng an apologetic look.

"Then where is your master waiting for me?" Gu Cheng asked again.

"It's at the Xiangming Pavilion around the corner." As if understanding Gu Cheng's worries, the middle-aged man pointed to a teahouse not far away and explained to Gu Cheng.

Gu Cheng looked in the direction he pointed, and soon saw the three-story "Xiangming Pavilion".

Although the tea house is not high, the decoration is very delicate and stylish, obviously not an ordinary place.

But this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that this Xiangming Pavilion is right next to the street, if something really happens, he can leave at any time, naturally there will be no danger.

In Fenglin City, few people dared to really fight.

If you really do that, you will definitely have to face the anger of Fenglin City, which is not something ordinary people can afford...

Thinking about it this way, Gu Cheng felt a lot more at ease.

Looking up at the middle-aged man waiting in front of him, he nodded slightly and said, "In that case, then you should lead the way, and I hope you won't disappoint me."

"Don't worry, you won't be disappointed."

The middle-aged man grinned a strange smile, and then he took the lead and walked forward.

Gu Cheng followed behind him.

The two soon came to Xiangming Pavilion.

Climbing up to the box on the second floor, Gu Cheng finally saw the so-called old man, and he was indeed not disappointed, because... It was completely beyond his expectations.
