Duan Rong stared at the night sky in a daze, Gu Daoling's words still echoing in his heart.
"When there is murderous intent on the earth, dragons and snakes rise from the land; when there is murderous intent in the sky, the stars change strangely."
"Suddenly, a madman sharpened his knife at night, and the imperial star was swaying and the Mars was high."
Duan Rong's eyes flickered deeply, and he thought to himself: "What Gu Daoling meant is that the murderous intent of heaven and earth is connected as one. Therefore, when the earth is murderous, those wild dragons and snakes rise up, there will be signs in the sky, and murderous intent will also appear?"
This is also often recorded in the history books of Blue Star in the previous life, but after humans entered modern civilization, such records are often regarded as superstition.
Now it seems that the murderous intent between heaven and earth is surging and echoing each other. I am afraid that there are mysteries that ordinary people cannot see, hidden in it.
Chu Qiushan sighed and said, "The Tao is vague and hazy. There are images in the vagueness. The stars are complicated, and the secrets of heaven are listed; the misty and distant, the mystery is like the abyss. Junior Brother Gu, you seek the Tao with a straight heart, without retreating or avoiding, without twisting or being clever, I am not as good as you."
"Master, you are too kind! Daoling is just a wild fox Zen, a martial arts master." Gu Daoling knew that Chu Qiushan was really praising him, and he still said humbly.
Chu Qiushan smiled slightly and said, "Master Gu, since you have broken through the mysterious gate and advanced to the late stage of the cave and dark realm, if you have time, you can also go back to the sect to see the ancestor. The old man often misses you!"
Gu Daoling was slightly stunned, and then he clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for the reminder, Master."
Zhu He heard this and glanced at Gu Daoling. He often advised his junior brother to go back to see the ancestor, but this kid always made excuses. Today, Chu Qiushan advised him, but his attitude was good. I wonder if he really wanted to go back to the mountain.
Chu Qiushan nodded, then turned to look at Zhu He and said, "Elder Zhu, I think the show you asked me to watch is very important. These trivial matters in the world are nothing more than some troubles and gains and losses. I advise Elder Zhu that being too clever and calculating is against the harmony of heaven and is not good for yourself."
There was a hidden warning in Chu Qiushan's words, and he was called Old Zhu before, but now he is called Elder Zhu, which is also a bit strange.
Zhu He was worried and immediately clasped his fists and said, "I am ashamed! I am ashamed to hurt our feelings because of a dispute over a heart!"
Zhu He did not argue with a eloquent tongue, but admitted his mistake directly.
Chu Qiushan heard this, and his eyes moved. He smiled and said, "Although the previous scene was ordinary, I was able to see Gu Shidao break through the gate of the mysterious gate and advance to the late stage of the cave and dark realm, and I got to listen to him talk about the way of the celestial phenomena. The latter scene was finally very exciting! Chu didn't come in vain!"
"Okay! Chu said goodbye!"
Chu Qiushan suddenly stood in front of Ge Rushong like a ghost, grabbed his shoulder, and turned into a black light, flying towards the sky.
"Farewell, Master!" Zhu He and Gu Daoling immediately clasped their fists and said loudly.
Duan Rong followed up with a sentence, but at this time, Chu Qiushan's figure had already disappeared completely. The bright moon and sparse stars, the clear night sky in late autumn, was quiet and silent, and the stars and moon were dim.
Zhu He stood there, looking at the place where Chu Qiushan disappeared, his eyes deep, just this battle, Ge Rushong was doomed.
Unexpectedly, the old story of Ge Rusong killing Elder Chu was brought up because of the Mani Pearl. Ge Rusong has too many debts.
Under the sky, in the light of the stars and the moon, Chu Qiushan held Ge Rusong captive and walked in the air. At such a high speed, Chu Qiushan's clothes and hair were motionless, as if they were still.
Ge Rusong suddenly said: "Master Chu, I want to make a deal with you..."
He had just said half of his words when Chu Qiushan's eyes condensed, and the ripples floating around him changed, and a soundproof wall appeared between him and Ge Rusong. Although Ge Rusong was still opening and closing his lips, Chu Qiushan could not hear anything.
At this time, Chu Qiushan's heart was surging, so how could he care about Ge Rusong?
Gu Daoling's breakthrough gave him great shock and excitement.
The method of comprehending the celestial phenomena is Gu Daoling's own way of cultivation. Naturally, he could not get a glimpse of its mysteries, and he had no intention of coveting it.
But the shock and stimulation that Gu Daoling gave him was his stubborn heart.
If he were in his place, if the ancestor strongly opposed his way of cultivation, would he dare to persist?
Chu Qiushan asked himself, he did not dare to persist, because he was too superstitious about the ancestor.
Perhaps, this is the core of his difficulty in breaking through!
The shadow of the ancestor was too big, he was deeply trapped in it and lost his original heart.
Because Chu Qiushan succeeded in stepping on the stage that year, he proudly followed the ancestor Lu Yinlin and practiced for twenty years. These twenty years left a deep mark on his practice.
It was also because of the foundation and guidance of these twenty years that he practiced all the way to the middle stage of the cave and dark realm without any stagnation.
But when it came to the late stage, he was trapped for decades without any breakthrough, and even lost his direction.
Seeing Gu Daoling's success today, he suddenly realized his own shortcomings. It turned out that he had been practicing in the shadow of the ancestor.
Chu Qiushan felt that it was time for him to step out of that shadow.
He decided that after one year, after taking over the position of the sect leader, he would bid farewell to the ancestor and travel around the world...
If he could not break through the late stage of the cave realm, he would never enter Qingzhou!
Duan Rong watched Chu Qiushan leave as soon as he said he would, and suddenly disappeared, and his mind was also turning over. If he hadn't been smart and stood beside Chu Qiushan in time, he would still be outside when Ge Rusong trapped Chu Qiushan and Zhu He with the Mani Pearl.
At that time, he had to face the reckless Ge Rushong alone.
Although Gu Daoling was lurking in the dense forest, ready to move at any time, he might not attack a junior like him. And the Dew Drinking Cicada on his body could only take one move from Ge Rushong.
It was hard to say whether he would die or live at that time.
Duan Rong felt a little scared, thinking that all this was thanks to Zhu He. He couldn't help but glance at Zhu He's back, and cursed in his heart: "You old thief, I really want to pluck your beard..."
At this moment, Zhu He withdrew his gaze from the clear and distant night sky and turned his head to look at Duan Rong behind him.
The master and the disciple looked at each other, and Duan Rong's eyes immediately changed, replaced by a respectful smile.
Although he had resentment towards Zhu He in his heart, this wave of experience also allowed him to see the confrontation and discussion of these powerful people in the Cave and Dark Realm. Although their fighting skills made Duan Rong dizzy, and the Mani Pearl, according to Ge Rushong, was obtained by Elder Chu from the ruins of the ancient battlefield of gods and demons, all these things opened Duan Rong's eyes.
He also saw his own insignificance. If he didn't have the Dew Drinking Cicada, or if he was a little slower, he would have been wiped out. Died without leaving any residue.
That is, Zhu He just lamented that his talented disciple was killed by someone. But compared to the sadness of his disciple's tragic death, Zhu He was probably more happy that this wave had defeated Ge Rushong, the great enemy.
Once Ge Rushong fell, his position as the leader of the sect was basically stable.
It was because Duan Rong saw his own insignificance that he understood more clearly that his cultivation might be the top in the secular world, but in the eyes of these powerful people, he was still no different from an ant.
From then on, he should practice harder, and he had to step forward step by step from cyclone, cave, and even Nascent Soul... If he didn't want to be a pawn, he had to have that strength.
And if he wanted to practice, the support and resource tilt of the sect were indispensable, and the later it was, the more obvious the impact in this regard would be.
People should look forward and not tie their hands and feet because of a momentary resentment in their hearts.
Zhu He is likely to become the next sect master. At that time, wouldn't he, the apprentice, also rise with the tide? All kinds of cultivation resources will naturally tilt towards him. In this way, he should get along well with Zhu He. This is not an old man, this is clearly a fragrant thigh!
Zhu He was slightly stunned when he saw the smile on Duan Rong's face. When they first met, this guy was still glaring at him.
Zhu He cleared his throat and said, "Duan Rong, you have made a great contribution to overthrowing Ge Rushong this time. Do a good job. Master has a score in mind. Go back today and finish the things you should do in Shenyun Mansion."
"Yes, Master!" Duan Rong responded obediently, then turned around and jumped into the darkness.
The moment Duan Rong's figure sank into the darkness, the corner of his mouth curled up.
Last time in the dense forest, he said he would compensate me, and this time he said he had a score in mind, but he didn't say a word that was put into practice.
This skill of drawing cakes is really perfect!
What a good boss! ?
No wonder he can be the leader of the sect! ?
Gu Daoling glanced at Duan Rong, and just by looking at his body movements and speed, he knew that he had achieved the fourth level of Yuanqi Realm, but he was still a little short of the great perfection of Yuanqi Realm.
Gu Daoling looked at Zhu He and said, "If I remember correctly, this kid has just entered Yunfu Peak for more than half a year, and he has achieved the fourth level of Yuanqi Realm?! This speed is faster than I did back then!"
Zhu He chuckled and said with a proud look on his face, "What's the big deal about achieving the fourth level of Yuanqi Realm! This kid has also comprehended the artistic conception, do you believe it?"
Gu Daoling's face was slightly startled, and he said, "What are you talking about?! How can you comprehend the artistic conception when you haven't even achieved the great perfection of Yuanqi Realm?"
Zhu He said, "When did I ever talk nonsense? Have you ever?"
Gu Daoling was slightly stunned. Although he was somewhat disgusted with Zhu He's cunning and fickleness, his senior brother had always been outspoken in front of him over the years.
Gu Daoling said, "Did he really comprehend the artistic conception?"
"If you don't believe me, forget it. I'm too lazy to argue with you." Zhu He waved his hand and said, "Let's go. I'm a little tired. Let's go to your stargazing pavilion to ask for a cup of tea."
After Zhu He finished speaking, he turned into a black light and went to the sky without waiting for Gu Daoling to reply.
"Ah~" Gu Daoling shook his head secretly. How could this guy leave as soon as he said he would? He had no choice but to turn into a black light and chase Zhu He.
Here, Duan Rong was in the dense forest, showing his body shape. Suddenly, two black lights appeared above his head and passed by in the sky.
In normal times, Duan Rong must have thought that it was a falling meteor, but at this time, Duan Rong knew that it was the figures of Zhu He and Gu Daoling.
Duan Rong's figure flashed in the dense forest, and his mind was churning.
He was wondering when Zhu He chose him to be the core chess piece in this game of chess.
Was it during the test in the valley, when he was half a step away from stepping onto the stage?
Duan Rong shook his head secretly, afraid that it had little to do with it. The role of cultivation talent in this chess game was probably negligible.
When was that?
Duan Rong's eyes suddenly moved. Was it when he was transferred to Shenyun Mansion to assist in the investigation of Zhu Shizhong's case?
No! It was before that. Before that, he had already entered Zhu He's vision as a candidate chess piece, so he was transferred to Shenyun Mansion to participate in the Zhu Shizhong case.
The reason why he entered Zhu He's vision and became a candidate chess piece, in addition to his cultivation talent, was probably more importantly his reputation as a detective in the four southeastern prefectures.
Zhu He asked him to participate in the Zhu Shizhong case in order to see his quality in person.
Following this line of thought, everything went smoothly.
When he first arrived at Shenyun Mansion to handle the case, Zhu Zhengfu began to win him over in the name of Zhu He.
And when he became a disciple in the Dragon Fish Hall, the first sentence Zhu He said at that time dug a trap for him. "The phrase "fish dragons leaping in the water are not as good as flying dragons in the sky." If Duan Rong was a little slow, he might not have understood it at that time.
And when they met, Zhu He was still studying him. To see if he could be the core chess piece of this game.
After repeated studies, Zhu He should have chosen him in his heart when he became a disciple in the Dragon Fish Hall. Therefore, he was able to enter Yunfu Peak. Zhu He treated him with great generosity, far beyond the normal personal disciples. He gave him two bottles of bone marrow ash from Yuan beasts as soon as they met. In the past six months, he has never stopped.
This is naturally related to his cultivation talent, but it is probably also paving the way for the game of killing Ge Rushong.
In this way, in fact, he became a chess piece first and then a disciple.
Duan Rong thought so, and he had already climbed over the tall city wall and returned to Shenyun Mansion. No matter what, this night was more mentally exhausting than the last night in the dense forest. He decided to return to the other courtyard and have a good sleep first.
Here, Zhu He and Gu Daoling turned into two black rays and landed in the Star Observatory.
The star-observatory in the center of the patio of the Star Observatory looked even more ancient and vicissitudes under the light of the stars and the moon.
At this time, it was already late at night. The two boys in the Stargazing Pavilion had already fallen asleep. A lantern in the corridor on the first floor of the pavilion emitted a dim orange light.
The two figures stopped in the orange light.
Zhu He said: "Junior brother, you make tea first, I'll be back soon."
"Where are you going?" Gu Daoling asked with a change of expression.
Zhu He said: "I'll find a place to put down the water."
Gu Daoling glanced at Zhu He and said: "Lazy people have a lot of shit and urine."
He knew that Zhu He was just looking for an excuse to leave. When practicing to their level, the cave in the Dantian can dissolve all impurities in the body and be immune to all diseases. How can there be the problem of shit and urine?
However, Gu Daoling never wanted to ask more about Zhu He's many worldly affairs. When Zhu He said so, he just muttered along with him.
Gu Daoling suddenly stretched out his hand and said, "Bring it here!"
Zhu He was slightly stunned and said, "What?"
"Tea!" Gu Daoling said, "Don't you want tea?"
"How can I bring tea?!" Zhu He patted his robe and said, "Junior brother, you are too stingy. Senior brother just drank a cup of your tea, do you want me to bring tea myself?"
Gu Daoling said, "Senior brother, you call me every day, and I have to make tea for you. After that, you don't even bring tea. You only bring a mouth when you go out!?"
Zhu He was stunned by Gu Daoling's words and said, "When did I call you every day? I haven't called you once in 800 years, so I call you every day!? I owe you tea first, and I will bring it to you next time."
After Zhu He finished speaking, he turned into a black light and flashed out of the Stargazing Pavilion.
Gu Daoling stood there and shook his head secretly.
This cheap senior brother, you still have the nerve to say that I am stingy? Guarding such a huge Yunfu Peak, with endless Qingling tea to drink, I didn't think of bringing more to his junior brother. It would be fine if he didn't bring any, but he still drinks my tea every day. How can this be justified? !
Although Gu Daoling said this, he still opened the door and prepared to make tea.
"When there is murderous intent on the earth, dragons and snakes rise from the land; when there is murderous intent in the sky, the stars change strangely."
"Suddenly, a madman sharpened his knife at night, and the imperial star was swaying and the Mars was high."
Duan Rong's eyes flickered deeply, and he thought to himself: "What Gu Daoling meant is that the murderous intent of heaven and earth is connected as one.

Chu Qiushan smiled slightly and said, "Master Gu, since you have broken through the mysterious gate and advanced to the late stage of the cave and dark realm, if you have time, you can also go back to the sect to see the ancestor. The old man often misses you!"
Gu Daoling was slightly stunned, and then he clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for the reminder, Master."
Zhu He heard this and glanced at Gu Daoling. He often advised his junior brother to go back to see the ancestor, but this kid always made excuses. Today, Chu Qiushan advised him, but his attitude was good. I wonder if he really wanted to go back to the mountain.
