Chapter 143: During the Banquet (4)
"This is part of the insights of the city lord Feng Ning of the city of Shangcheng. Today I will share with you all the senior fellow Taoists for coming to attend the birthday party of the city lord."
The monks had just woken up from that mysterious feeling, and a clear and distant voice seemed to come from all directions, filling everyone's ears.
"Thank you, God Fengning, for your advice!"
Someone bowed to the cloud tower above.
Gu Xiu and Gu Xuan also immediately followed up with a Taoist tribute.
After sitting down again, Gu Xuan said excitedly: "Eighth sister, I felt that the mid-stage progress of the sedative calm was still early. Not to mention the door, I didn't even touch the window. Now, I feel that I have found that door, and I just lack the strength to walk from the place to the door.
The mid-term period of advanced interest rate condensation is just around the corner."
"Me too, I am too. I wasted decades in the mid-term of the recession period. I just touched the threshold for the later period in the past two years, but the threshold was a bit high. I was worried about how to cross it. Today's experience has made me realize where there is a threshold. There has never been a threshold. The threshold is just what I imagined. As long as I look down on everything and walk forward step by step with a firm mind on the ground, the so-called threshold will be useless."
Zhong Yun also said excitedly, she was so excited that she had worked hard to practice in the past two or three years, but she made no progress. Even though her heart was as rocky as a rock, she couldn't help but feel a little anxious at this time.
It is a great blessing to not want to have such a fortune today.
"Eighth sister, what about you, how do you feel?"
Gu Xuan asked her.
Gu Xiu looked at everyone around him, and everyone exchanged their gains with their peers with a smile on their faces.
Gu Xiu naturally gained something. Although her strength has increased since she advanced to the middle stage of the Climbing Rate, her cultivation has been much more difficult than before. She thought it was because her qualifications were too poor.
Now this impact made her feel a sense of enlightenment. Poor qualifications are indeed one aspect, but not all.
It was her who kept her poor qualifications in her heart, so poor qualifications became a shortcoming.
After all, it was because she was not as effective in her cultivation as before, and she made excuses for herself.
"Eighth Sister?" Gu Xuan didn't hear Gu Xiu's answer and called her again.
Gu Xiu looked at her and smiled and said, "Of course I also benefited a lot."
At this time, a disciple of the City Lord's Mansion came to add spiritual tea. Gu Xiu hurriedly asked, "Fellow Taoist, where is that direction leading to?"
The disciple looked in Gu Xiu's finger direction, was slightly stunned, and then smiled and said, "That's the direction to the inner city."
After thinking about it, the disciple gently reminded: "However, the jade plaque entering the inner city is different from the outer city. From the outer city to the inner city, there are eighteen gates and all the gate cards are different. Not only are there access controls, but there are also guards of disciples from the Lord's Mansion. There are no jade plaques for disciples of the inner city, and guests who have not received invitations to enter the inner city will not be able to enter the inner city.
But today there is an exception."
"What special case?"
Gu Xiu asked immediately.
"Today is the birthday party for our city lord's wife. If any senior or fellow Taoist has a rare treasure, the artifact Yuandan will be presented to the city lord's wife as a birthday gift. You can inform Uncle Xu of Uncle Xu. With the permission of Uncle Xu, you can enter the inner city and personally go to the city lord's wife to celebrate her birthday and give her birthday gift."
A rare treasure? A magical artifact Yuan Dan?
How could Gu Xiu have these good things? Even if she has them, she would not be willing to give them to Mrs. Noling, whom she didn't know.
However, because she still had something to do, she wanted to go into the inner city to see the truth, so if she really had such a good thing, she might have really considered it.
As for others, are they really willing to give the treasures they have on their bodies to others just to get a chance to enter the inner city?
But if not, why did the Lord of Shangcheng City Mansion specifically make such a regulation?
Gu Xiu was a little confused, but since she couldn't figure it out, she stopped thinking about it, because she didn't have it anyway.
At this time, she suddenly remembered the giant axe obtained by City Lord He on the way back. Judging from the appearance, as well as the situation at that time, the giant axe seemed to be an ancient artifact of the Sky-Slashing Axe.
After all, Niu Erniu is a weapon refiner. For the sake of the giant axe, he almost lost his life, which proves the extraordinaryness of the giant axe.
However, although I did not get the ancient artifact and got some things when I came out of Axe Mountain, the Earth Wind Bear took the risk to get it.
I don’t know if a beast soul banner and a few ghost breath beads are considered rare treasures.
The strange should be strange, and the strange should be strange, but I am afraid it is not even treasure. For the ghost cultivator, I might be able to test it with you, so let it go here.
These thoughts flashed through Gu Xiu's mind and she thanked the disciple. Seeing that she didn't seem to have a treasure to be sent in, the disciple didn't say anything more.
"Eighth sister, what's the problem with that direction?"
After the disciples of the City Lord's Mansion left, Gu Xuan asked.
Gu Xiu shook his head, "No, I just felt the traces of the formation there were a little deeper, so I asked."
Gu Xuan nodded and stopped asking.
But Gu Xiu started thinking about how to enter the inner city of the city lord's mansion. Just now, when the road was three thousand, and when she entered the eyes of the cultivators, she clearly felt that Xiao Ban's breath was coming from the direction of the inner city.
As soon as she entered the City Lord's Mansion, she knew that Xiao Ban must be in the City Lord's Mansion, but there may be too many formation restrictions in the City Lord's Mansion. Although she was sure that Xiao Ban was indeed here, the specific direction was a little blurred.
And now, she has confirmed that Xiao Ban must be in the inner city.
"Is this a fellow Taoist's spiritual beast? It seems that it has some insights."
Gu Xiu was thinking, and a late-stage male cultivator sitting next to her who looked about thirty years old, smiled and said.
Gu Xiu looked at the Earth Wind Bear lying beside her, and saw that the Earth Wind Bear's eyes were closed, his back was straight, his neck was even more erect and his head was raised. It was obvious that he was not closing his eyes to rest. Looking at this, he should be practicing.
Difengxiong was not practicing before. It was just after the Lord of Shangcheng City, Feng Ning, shared some of his insights on the advancement of cultivation with the cultivators that Difengxiong began to practice so seriously. No wonder male cultivators asked this question.
"I have some understanding!" The male cultivator said again. He glanced at Gu Xiu again and asked again, "I wonder if this Earth Wind Bear is a fellow Taoist's spiritual beast?"
Gu Xiu frowned slightly, and she felt that the male cultivator was a little confused.
"Fellow Taoist, Difeng came in with me. I wonder what you have to do with me?"
Gu Xiu's tone was a bit cold and hard.
"Oh, fellow Taoist in Xiaguan is a middle-level cultivation level. I don't know how to subdue a third-level monster to follow. To be honest, fellow Taoist has raised many monsters in the lower family, including four-level fifth-level or even sixth-level seventh-level. However, the lower level is low in cultivation and those monsters are not willing to surrender to the lower level.
So I want to ask how the fellow Taoist did it. Oh, don’t worry, if the fellow Taoist uses some kind of secret technique, I am willing to buy it out of the golden beads or exchange it for things, it depends on the fellow Taoist.”
For a moment, almost everyone at the table turned their attention to Gu Xiu and the male cultivator.
