Chapter 11: Almost Exposed
After learning that Gu Xuan's martial soul was primarily fire-attribute, Ning Fengzhi specially permitted the construction of a top-of-the-line fire-mimicry training room on the mountain where Gu Xuan lived.
In other words, dragon-attribute soul beasts are too difficult to catch and too rare; otherwise, Ning Fengzhi would have tried to catch a few and put them in there.
Gu Xuan did not refuse Ning Fengzhi's special attempt to please him.
After all, this is the treatment he deserves.
As a retainer of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the school could no longer provide Gu Rong with any conveniences at this time.
The profits from Gu Rong's work were naturally transferred to Gu Xuan.
Therefore, Gu Xuan had no objection to Ning Fengzhi's arrangements.
In the top-tier simulated training ground, Gu Xuan's cultivation speed was pushed to its limit.
With his innate talent of full soul power, coupled with the top-notch, heaven-defying training ground, Gu Xuan advanced from level twelve to level thirteen in just one month.
"Level 13!"
Gu Xuan opened his eyes, a flash of scarlet light passing through them.
At the same time, the instant Gu Xuan broke through, an earth-shattering aura suddenly erupted from the mountain where Gu Xuan was located.
Roar!
A hoarse, deathly roar echoed throughout the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
"The old man has broken through!"
A smile appeared on Gu Xuan's face as he pushed open the door and walked out of the cultivation room.
Above the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, a huge bone dragon soared freely, and on the top of the bone dragon's head, a middle-aged man stood with his hands behind his back, looking down on the world with an air of disdain.
Seeing Gu Xuan push open the door and walk out, Gu Rong's face lit up with joy.
Immediately, the Bone Dragon was summoned and headed towards Gu Xuan. Just as it was about to approach Gu Xuan, the Bone Dragon suddenly dissipated and transformed into soul power, returning to Gu Rong's body.
"Grandpa, congratulations on your breakthrough!"
Gu Xuan looked at Gu Rong and congratulated her with a smile, finally showing a genuine smile on his face.
After all, they were his true "family" in this world, and their improvement in strength was a good thing for him.
"Haha, no problem, no problem. We really need you, Xuan'er. Quickly put it away. Grandpa has already broken through and doesn't need it for the time being, so don't reveal it."
Gu Rong quickly handed the dog talisman to Gu Xuan and said.
"Um!"
Gu Xuan nodded and took it back without hesitation.
The talisman was originally a part of him; it couldn't remain outside forever.
He is currently in the prime of his growth, and with the Dog Talisman in hand, his growth rate will be even faster.
And if Gu Rong needs it in the future, he can borrow it again, right?
As soon as the talisman left his hand, Gu Rong immediately felt unwell all over.
It felt like a discarded burden had returned, making me feel extremely uncomfortable.
But the more he did so, the more he valued Gu Xuan's talisman, and the more he knew its worth, the more he would keep this secret.
Fortunately, he has now broken through to level 96, and his physical functions have recovered somewhat, making him much more relaxed than before.
Gu Xuan retracted the talisman into his body, and a surge of energy instantly filled his entire body. The fatigue he had experienced from prolonged cultivation was instantly erased, and his energy was restored to its peak.
Not only physical energy, but also soul power, vitality, and even mental power reached their peak at this moment.
The Dog Talisman grants immortality, allowing the holder to maintain their current peak condition.
Of course, although there is no way to heal the injuries, under the effect of immortality, even if he suffers a serious injury, he can recover as long as there is enough time.
A smile appeared on his face; with the dog talisman back in place, his cultivation speed could finally be increased.
Maintaining Gu Xuan's soul power at its peak ensures that his soul power only increases and never decreases.
Soul skills can also be used at will to increase proficiency.
Having plenty of energy allows Gu Xuan to spend more time cultivating.
It can be said that a single dog talisman solved almost all of Gu Xuan's problems in the early stages of his cultivation.
Having obtained the dog talisman, he had already planned out his next cultivation process in his mind.
"Uncle Gu, congratulations! Your strength has improved again."
The sudden burst of congratulations snapped Gu Xuan out of his mental plans.
With a slight focus of his gaze, he spotted Ning Fengzhi and Jian Chenxin.
I don't know when these two people arrived.
As soon as Ning Fengzhi arrived, he immediately offered his congratulations to Gu Rong.
"Haha, just an occasional breakthrough."
"Swordsman, this time I don't need anything from you."
Gu Rong waved his hand casually and said, then looked at Chen Xin with a hint of disdain in his eyes.
In terms of strength, he has now caught up with Chen Xin, and he also has a good grandson like Gu Xuan.
Yes, his life has already surpassed that of the old swordsman Chenxin.
"Oh, really?"
"How about we have a little competition and see if your old bones are tougher or my sword is sharper?"
Chen Xin wouldn't tolerate Gu Rong's behavior. He raised his hand and the Seven Kill Sword appeared in his hand. His eyes were filled with fighting spirit as he looked at Gu Rong.
"Hahaha, just what I wanted! Old Swordsman, if you've got the guts, let's go up to the heavens and have a fight!"
Gu Rong's eyes were also blazing with fighting spirit. This old swordsman's soul power level had always been one level higher than his. Now that he had finally caught up, he was determined to beat this swordsman to a pulp today.
A pair of bone dragon wings materialized behind the ancient banyan tree, and with a flap of its wings, it vanished from the spot.
Chen Xin was equally unyielding, and a sword shadow materialized beneath his feet, soaring directly into the sky.
At this moment, it was as if the main characters had changed to Chen Xin and Gu Rong, and even Ning Fengzhi had to focus his attention on Chen Xin and Gu Rong.
Chen Xin and Gu Rong started fighting right there in the sky above the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was already used to this.
The fact that the two often clashed in the skies above the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School actually became a major attraction for outsiders to join the school.
After all, this is a battle between Title Douluo-level beings.
Where else besides the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School can you see this?
Although Ning Fengzhi and Gu Xuan were standing together, their attention was now drawn to Chen Xin and Gu Rong.
The duel between the Bone Dragon and the Seven Kill Sword continues.
Although it was difficult to catch any trace of Gu Xuan, some things could still be vaguely discerned.
Or to put it in a more fantastical way.
As Gu Xuan looked at the sky filled with sword shadows, his left hand began to tremble slightly.
Even a sword shadow gradually appeared in his eyes.
Suddenly, a sharp sword intent shot out from Gu Xuan's body.
That sword intent was sharp and fiery.
Almost instantly, Gu Xuan reacted to his understanding of sword intent.
Gu Xuan reacted after thinking for only 0.01 seconds.
Ning Fengzhi was carefully observing the battle in the sky when he suddenly felt a power that was both extremely familiar and unfamiliar to him.
He had seen this power many times; it was what Chen Xin called sword intent.
And isn't that Gu Xuan standing next to him?
How could he possibly comprehend sword intent?
Is it...
Ning Fengzhi turned his head instantly.
Gu Xuan's eyes were unfocused and he looked utterly lifeless. He raised his hands high, and blazing flames gathered on his hands.
Amidst the rolling flames, a massive flaming sword was condensed by Gu Xuan.
The flaming greatsword was held in Gu Xuan's hand, and the sword intent emanating from him became increasingly fierce and intense.
