The Extreme Princess

【No...】

【cannot...】

Gu Yue watched the door moving away from her. It was now as small as a mustard seed and was about to disappear from her sight. Her heart was filled with despair and unwillingness, as if without the door, she would be trapped here to death.

As the last bit of light faded away, the portal in the darkness slowly dissipated, and the space finally fell completely silent.

Gu Yue, who was completely enveloped by darkness, felt a trace of despair in her heart.

The endless darkness and eternal silence almost drove her crazy.

【Failed...】

There was a hint of bitterness at the corner of Gu Yue's mouth.

The next moment, Gu Yue's heart trembled, and a scene in a forest somewhere emerged in her mind.

'Daddy, I want to practice...'

"Daddy, Yue'er doesn't want to hide behind you every time she encounters danger. I want to face it with you!"

This was what Gu Yue said to Gu Qingshan at that time. It was the first time she made up her mind to embark on this path.

[No direction, no way...]

【Then I will find my own way! 】

Suddenly, a strong belief burst out from Gu Yue's heart.

In this place filled with endless darkness, a little light began to flash in Gu Yue's eyes, and then became brighter and brighter.

At this moment, Gu Yue became the only light in this dark space!

Inside the magic circle, Gu Yue's eyes suddenly opened.

Gu Yue just opened his mouth and sucked, and the huge spiritual power floating in the magic circle was immediately sucked into his body like a whale drinking water.

Even with such a huge amount of spiritual power entering her body, Gu Yue's body did not grow any more, but instead showed signs of shrinking.

As the last bit of spiritual power was absorbed into Gu Yue's body, a clear whistle suddenly exploded on the top of the mountain.

With clear whistles, the Soul Gathering and Soul Binding formations were instantly shattered, and a strange wave began to spread violently from where Gu Yue was.

"It's done!"

Yun Ling's face was full of excitement, and she let the energy emanating from Gu Yue impact her body.

In mid-air, Gu Qingshan exhaled lightly, and with a flash of his body, he blocked Mo Wanyou, whose eyes were red, behind him.

Ling Yu's fiery red skirt was rustling in the strong wind, and she exclaimed: "Ten times the meridians are opened, the junior sister really did it..."

After a long time, the whistling sound from the top of the mountain gradually subsided. Gu Yue felt the spiritual power flowing in her body like a river without any stagnation, and a smile bloomed on her face.

At this time, her short hair had grown back a little.

Although she is still wearing cloth, the girl under the sun seems to blend into the surrounding nature.

"Squeak..."

The cry of Taixu Lingmarten brought Gu Yue back to reality.

She glanced at the little beast hiding behind the stone. I poked my head out and looked at it carefully. I smiled slightly, and a stream of spiritual power emerged from the palm of my hand and floated above my palm.

The little beast's eyes lit up, and it immediately jumped out from behind the stone and leaped onto Gu Yue's arm.

"Squeak!"

After the little beast swallowed the spiritual power, it immediately squeaked and waved its two front paws, extremely excited.

Gu Yue chuckled and held the little beast in her arms, then walked towards Gu Qingshan and the others.

"Ten times the meridians..."

Yun Ling looked Gu Yue up and down for a long time before looking away and sighing.

Ling Yu's eyes sparkled, "Junior sister, congratulations!"

Gu Yue was also in a good mood at this time, with her eyes narrowed in smile, "Thanks to the guidance of godmother and senior sister, Yue'er can steadily climb higher..."

As he spoke, Gu Yue put away his smile and bowed solemnly towards the two of them.

"Okay..."

Yun Ling smiled, stretched out his hand to help Gu Yue up, and said seriously: "Now that you have reached perfection in the Condensation Realm, don't rush into the next realm."

Yun Ling paused and looked at the little beast in Gu Yue's arms. "The most urgent thing right now is that we need to set up a magic circle on this mountain. It would be best if the Taixu Spirit Marten could participate and help us."

Speaking of this, Gu Yue's face darkened and he nodded slightly.

Although he has opened ten times the meridians now, he is still only a cultivator at the thirteenth level.

And in the Soul-Suppressing Mountains, there are probably countless cultivators who are now looking for their whereabouts, and any one of them will be at least three levels deep.

Thinking of this, Gu Yue's joy slowly faded away, and the lingering crisis made her heart filled with a sense of urgency.

The sense of urgency becomes stronger!

Soon, several people started moving without stopping.

The group, led by Yunling and assisted by Lingyu, set up magic arrays in various places on the mountain.

The mountain was steep, and Gu Yue was holding Mo Wanyou's hand and hanging at the back.

Under Yun Ling's guidance, Gu Qingshan, like a hardworking farmer, injected streams of martial arts true energy into specific locations.

At the critical moment, the true energy of these warriors will become the scythe of the god of death, reaping the invaders who dare to go up the mountain!

The Taixu Lingmarten followed Gu Yue all the time, sometimes crawling, sometimes jumping up, and was very busy.

With the addition of Taixu Lingdiao, Yunling found it much easier to set up the magic circle.

Because now she only needs to build the framework of each magic array and ensure that the magic array can operate normally.

The Taixu Lingdiao behind her will check all the magic arrays she has set up and fill in the gaps.

According to Yun Ling and Gu Yue's explanation, arranging a magic circle is like building houses.

Now she only needs to build the house, and as for the interior decoration, she can leave it directly to Taixu Lingdiao.

It took a full seven days to complete the process, and this mountain, which was over a hundred feet high, was covered with hundreds of magic arrays from top to bottom.

With such a large number of magic arrays, not to mention ordinary cultivators, even cultivators in the sixth and seventh realms cannot get out of them without paying a heavy price.

As for the fact that the sixth realm monks can already escape the gravity of the ground and fly into the air...

With a warrior from the All-Seeing Realm guarding the sky and the support of the formation, this is no joke.

Who dares to offend a warrior in the realm of all things?

...

At noon on the seventh day, Gu Qingshan sat in the center of a magic circle, familiarizing himself with its power.

The occasional hazy light emitted by the magic circle made him look like a god descending from heaven.

Yun Ling's face was a little pale at this time.

Seven consecutive days of high-intensity spiritual power output and the various sophisticated calculations of the formation made her physically and mentally exhausted.

Before resuming her practice, she called Gu Yue to her side, and a light flashed on her hand, and a book fell into her palm.

"This is an ancient book that records the skills of body movements. You should practice well in the next few days..."

"Nine Steps on Mountains and Rivers..."

Gu Yue looked at the book in her hand curiously.

Yun Ling nodded lightly, "It's not a particularly advanced body movement skill, but it's enough for you now, and the Taixu Spirit Marten is incredibly fast, you can let it assist you in practicing..."

Gu Yue nodded and replied crisply, "Understood, Yue'er will go right away!"

Hearing this, Yun Ling waved her hand and chuckled, "Go..."

Gu Yue bowed slightly to Yun Ling, then said hello to Mo Wanyou, took the little beast, and floated down the mountain like a gust of breeze.

The top of the mountain is small, so if you are going to practice body skills, it would be more suitable to stay at the foot of the mountain.

Moreover, she had asked Yun Ling before, as long as they didn’t leave the natural magic circle at the foot of the mountain, if there was any change, she and Gu Qingshan would be able to arrive in an instant!

At the foot of the mountain, Gu Yue found a stone, sat cross-legged, fed a stream of spiritual power to the little beast, and then began to carefully read the book given by Yun Ling.

"I have stepped on mountains and rivers nine times. I have stepped on all the mountains and rivers and reached the highest level. There will be no place in the world that I cannot step on..."

Gu Yue silently recited the contents of "Nine Steps on Mountains and Rivers".

"What a big mouth..."

Gu Yue said in astonishment.

Now she is no longer the Gu Yue who has always lived in a small town and had no contact with the outside world.

I also know that in the balanced world, there are many places that hide great crises and great terrors, some of which can even be described as desperate situations.

The opening sentence of this book is the culmination of all that is left to chance...

However, even so, Gu Yue would not underestimate the memories in this book.

Then she shook her head, threw away some of the messy thoughts in her mind, and began to concentrate on reading the books on cultivation methods.

About an hour later, Gu Yue put the book in his arms and patted the Taixu Lingdiao on his shoulder.

"Squeak..."

The little beast squeaked, jumped off Gu Yue's shoulder, landed in the weeds in front of Gu Yue, and looked at Gu Yue provocatively.

"Little guy, do you underestimate me?"

Gu Yue spat in annoyance and lunged forward, trying to catch the little beast.

However, the little beast was extremely agile. It just pushed the ground lightly with its hind legs and flew far away, leaving Gu Yue with nothing.

Seeing this, Gu Yue was not annoyed. He chuckled and silently recited the practice method of "Nine Steps on Mountains and Rivers" in his mind. He infused spiritual power into several fixed meridians in his calves, then exerted force suddenly and pounced on the little beast again.

"Squeak..."

Seeing that Gu Yue's speed suddenly increased a lot, the little beast screamed exaggeratedly, as if it was frightened, but its dodging movements were not at all messy.

At the foot of the mountain, a man and a beast began a long chase.

Several times, Gu Yue almost caught the Taixu Spirit Marten, and even touched its tail once, but in the end it always escaped.

Until the end, she accidentally caught a glimpse of a hint of cunning in the little animal's eyes, and she suddenly realized.

Got tricked...

Gu Yue was secretly annoyed, and her pace unknowingly quickened.

An hour later, Gu Yue, with a red face, suddenly stopped and gasped for breath.

After the little beast ran a long distance, it turned around and looked at Gu Yue in confusion.

After noticing that Gu Yue suddenly fell into deep thought, the little beast called softly twice, slowly lay down and calmed down.

【No, no.】

The more he thought about it, the deeper Gu Yue's brows furrowed.

The Nine Steps of Mountains and Rivers are divided into nine steps, and this first step is also the most basic step.

However, after such a long time, Gu Yue found that he had only learned the form. He ran vigorously, but he only imitated it and did not get the essence of it. This is what ordinary people call "form without spirit"...

During this process, she discovered that this set of footwork skills was fast and had an unstoppable momentum.

However, every time I took a step, it seemed as if I always lacked some strength.

But every step is clearly done with all one's strength...

【What went wrong...】

Gu Yue was puzzled, and at this moment she had the idea of ​​returning to the top of the mountain to ask Yun Ling for advice.

Just as Gu Yue was about to call the little beast back to the top of the mountain, a flash of inspiration suddenly occurred to her mind.

[Moving forward without hesitation? ]

Gu Yue's eyes lit up and she shouted excitedly, "Little Marten!"

Hearing Gu Yue's call, the little beast jumped up from the ground and looked at Gu Yue vigilantly after landing.

Seeing this, Gu Yue raised a smile and shouted softly: "Watch out!"

She couldn't wait to verify her guess.

Gu Yue's eyes suddenly became firm, his knees sank slightly, and then his body suddenly rushed towards the little beast.

The little beast was frightened by Gu Yue's sudden increase in speed. It let out a strange cry, and its body almost turned into a stream of white light as it rushed away into the distance.

After a while, Gu Yue sat down on the ground, gasping for breath. Not far away, the little animal was also lying in the grass, panting with its tongue sticking out.

Only then did Gu Yue understand why such a grand tone was used in the opening sentence of a set of body movement skills.

Her guess was correct.

The momentum of moving forward.

This is the charm of "Nine Steps on Mountains and Rivers"!

[No wonder Daddy said that knowing too much now would not benefit my practice. So this is what he meant...]

It is precisely because I know that many Jedi and restricted areas are not accessible to anyone who wants to enter, so after reading the opening sentence, I felt a little disdainful.

The essence of this skill is actually the sentence at the beginning...

[From now on, you must never let your arrogance blind you...]

After figuring this out, Gu Yue couldn't help but shake her head and secretly warned herself in her heart.

After resting for a while, Gu Yue stood up and waved to the little beast, "Little Marten, we're back!"

"Squeak..."

Upon hearing this, the little beast immediately turned over on its belly, jumped and landed steadily on Gu Yue's shoulder.

"I haven't given you a name yet..."

As they walked towards the peak, Gu Yue murmured, "I can't keep calling you Little Marten."

"Squeak..."

The little animal waved its claws and looked at Gu Yue as if telling her to give it a nice name.

"What do you call me?"

Gu Yue fell into deep thought.

"Zhizhizhi..."

While deep in thought, Gu Yue was awakened by the sudden and rapid cry of the little animal.

"what happened?"

Gu Yue tilted her head and looked at the little beast in confusion.

The little beast turned around on Gu Yue's shoulder, raised its right paw and pointed in the direction of the forest.

Gu Yue's expression gradually became serious. "You mean, someone broke into the magic circle?"

"Squeak..."

The little beast nodded very intelligently.
