#366 - Have you become younger?
Enforcement Hall.
Looking at the surprised Du Gujing, Gu An was silent for a moment and then said, "I only need a month's worth in advance, I wonder if that's possible?"
Du Gujing looked at the person in front of him, thought for a moment, and then opened his mouth, "It's not impossible, but Junior Brother always has to give a reason, and this requires an application."
"The Six Academy Competition is about to end, according to Senior Brother, this is the last month."
Gu An had already thought of a reason when he came: "So many people will definitely be unable to restrain themselves.
Rosheng Hall should be the safest place in the sect.
So I want to stay inside for a while, as a way to avoid the dangers outside."
Du Gujing didn't say much else, but said, "Junior Brother is not in mortal danger within the sect, perhaps Junior Brother is not very clear, but it's always good to be cautious.
I will apply for Junior Brother.
If Junior Brother is willing, you can go to Rosheng Hall today.
Twelve days in total?"
"Yes."
Gu An said gratefully, "Thank you, Senior Brother."
After that, Gu An went to Rosheng Hall.
This time it was still Team Leader He.
She was sitting at her work station, reviewing documents.
There was no one around.
"Here to chop wood again?"
She raised her eyebrows and looked at the person in front of her.
Gu An performed a greeting ceremony and said respectfully, "Sorry to bother Team Leader He, but this time, can I change to a different kind of tree?
I've been chopping the previous one for a long time, and I'd like to see other spiritual trees."
Team Leader He looked at Gu An, was silent for a moment, and then said, "Do you like chopping wood so much?"
Gu An continued, "It's mainly because this is the only thing I can do well, I hope Team Leader will grant my request."
As he spoke, he took out a box of pastries: "These are pastries I encountered on my last outing, I heard they taste very good, Team Leader can try them."
Team Leader He chuckled, "Pastries? You're still so fond of these things even at this cultivation level? No wonder you're looked down upon, the late stage of the Golden Core realm should be a good cultivation level, but it seems ordinary on you."
Gu An naturally didn't dare to refute, but placed the pastry box on the table and said, "I do have a bit of a sweet tooth, Team Leader can take a look, if you're not interested, then forget it."
Team Leader He shook her head, but in the end, she still opened the pastry box.
The moment she saw it, her arm moved subconsciously, fortunately, she didn't let the lid fall.
But soon, she closed the lid again, and was silent for a moment before saying, "Since you're so thoughtful,
I'll give it a try when the time comes."
Then she took out a token and said, "Since you've chopped the Snow Jade Tree before, then let's change to another one, there's a kind called the Heartfire Tree next to it, its auxiliary function is to form a burning flame in your body.
If used well, it can be used to temper yourself.
If not used well, your cultivation may be damaged, and you may even fall from your current cultivation level.
Here are some insights on chopping the Heartfire Wood, Junior Brother can take a look."
As she spoke, she took out a page from a book.
Gu An accepted the two items and respectfully performed a salute, "Thank you, Team Leader He."
Watching Gu An leave, Team Leader He looked at the pastry box, quite moved, "As expected of the one in charge of the First Academy, it is said that the Six Academies have great power, not only controlling the life and death of other sect's captives, but also controlling many resources.
This is indeed true."
Leaving, Gu An breathed a sigh of relief.
This time, he gave himself a few months' worth of income.
Twelve days, plus other wood, should be enough to try to break through to above the Returning Void realm.
In this way, he can handle any situation in December.
He just doesn't know what kind of person is behind Senior Sister Tang Lan.
If he hadn't hidden his cultivation, and could use the trees here to improve to above the Returning Void realm, he would really be helpless.
Strength is the most important thing.
As for the Divine Monarch Hall, Gu An didn't think too much about it.
Because these strengths will definitely not be of much use in the Divine Monarch Hall.
In front of the forest, Gu An collected an axe.
Soon he found the Heartfire Tree.
The branches looked no different from ordinary trees.
But in the main trunk, there was a ball of flame burning, the firelight visible through the trunk, faintly visible.
Gu An reached out and touched it, and found that the flame was only slightly warm.
According to the insights given by Team Leader He, being only slightly warm means that the age is not that great.
The side effects are minimal.
Gu An decided to try with this tree, so he could get used to it.
Of course, if the side effects were too great, he would give up.
After all, the body cannot withstand too great side effects.
It's easy to be counterproductive.
Adjusting his breathing, Gu An gently lowered his axe.
An ordinary sound of chopping wood.
The axe went straight in a bit, and then a wisp of fire passed through the axe and directly into his body.
Gu An had already prepared to resist, but the moment the flame entered his body, Gu An felt the Sun Moon Heart Furnace begin to operate, and then the flame was absorbed by the Heart Furnace and burned directly in the furnace fire.
For a time, his body felt much warmer.
Not only that, the Heart Furnace began to nourish his body.
As if cultivating the Sun Moon Heart Furnace.
This surprised Gu An.
The Heartfire Tree can actually promote the cultivation of the Sun Moon Heart Furnace?
Doesn't that mean that he can not only get a warm current, but also allow the Sun Moon Heart Furnace to be improved?
It seems that this tree is really the right one.
For safety's sake, Gu An was still trying.
A warm current began to appear in the middle.
Skill +1.
Skill +1.
In half a day, he gained two points of skill.
He should have about seven points in a day.
But this is a tree of low age, if it is higher, nine points is not impossible.
In other words, he can get at least two skill upgrades here.
Hard cultivation is less, maybe there are about seven points.
As long as it is stable at seven points a day.
Twelve days is eighty-four points.
Adding the already existing sixteen points is just enough, but upgrading skills twice will take up most of the day.
In this way, it seems to be a bit short, I just hope to have more hard cultivation.
Thinking this way, Gu An began to chop wood.
He also glanced at the panel.
[Skill: 23 / 50]
[Hard Cultivation: 16 / 100]
With this, Gu An swung the axe in his hand, first chopping down this tree, and after becoming proficient, he would go and chop down other older trees.
As the flame entered his body, Gu An felt a ball of heat on his body.
Constantly burning himself.
But there was no pain, but rather it made his body more and more comfortable.
Even the side effects brought about by the previous logging began to recede, and fatigue and pain were also relieved,
The Sun Moon Heart Furnace not only improves cultivation, but also makes the body more solid, and the physical body becomes stronger.
Essence, Qi, and Spirit can all be improved.
Everything has a feeling of getting twice the result with half the effort.
And there is an inexhaustible amount of energy.
What the master passed on this time is really a good thing.
With each chop of wood, Gu An felt that this tree was born for him to chop down.
For the first time, he had a feeling of becoming more and more courageous.
Transparency.
Especially the warm current is constantly appearing.
Hard Cultivation +1.
Skill +1.
Hard Cultivation +1.
Skill +1.
In the evening, the tree fell.
Gu An immediately found an older tree and began to chop it down.
This chopping made people forget the time.
Until the next day.
Only then did he stop.
Started checking the values.
[Skill: 30 / 50]
[Hard Cultivation: 23 / 100]
Looking at the changes in the values, Gu An breathed a sigh of relief.
"Skill has increased by nine points, and that's with half the time spent chopping down trees that aren't that old."
"If they were all old ones, then Hard Cultivation should be eight points, and Skill should be ten points."
"In that case, even if it takes a day to advance the术法, bitter cultivation will suffice."
Gu An stopped thinking and found a tree to continue chopping.
In just two days, he could enhance his术法.
This time, he would enhance the Seven Emotions and Six Desires chapter.
He was at a disadvantage in this aspect.
He had to maintain enough calm so that he wouldn't be easily noticed.
"Who are you?" A voice suddenly came.
Gu An turned his head and saw Team Leader He approaching.
However, her words surprised him.
He tentatively asked, "Team Leader He?"
Then she looked at him with suspicion and uncertainty: "Gu An?"
"It's me," Gu An nodded.
"You, what happened to you?" Team Leader He asked.
Because Gu An had given a lot of spirit stones, it wasn't unusual for her, as a team leader, to come and check on his condition, especially since he had chosen a tree here, which was extremely dangerous.
Previously, he could rely on experience to get through it.
But that was definitely not possible here.
His body couldn't handle it.
He needed to rest well.
To ensure that he hadn't messed around, she had come early to check.
To prevent accidents from happening.
However, an accident did occur.
When he came, he had a sense of aging and decay, but what was going on now?
His energy was abundant, and the aging and decay were swept away.
The whole person standing there was like a different person.
That's why she subconsciously felt that he wasn't Gu An.
Gu An looked at her stunned appearance and was quite puzzled: "What's wrong with me?"
"What do you feel when you chop this tree?" Team Leader He asked.
"Energetic," Gu An said truthfully: "This is a feeling I've never had before."
How could it not be a feeling he'd never had before? I've never even seen this situation, Team Leader He thought in astonishment.
People who chop wood are usually not in good condition, especially someone like Gu An.
Aging is reasonable.
Abundant energy and spirit are definitely anomalies.
After hesitating, she still asked the reason.
Gu An didn't hide anything and told the truth.
Because of the Sun and Moon Heart Furnace, this was a technique passed down by his master.
If he had obtained it himself, then he would need to hide it, but the master's teachings were sometimes a kind of prestige and protection.
The peak master personally taught the technique, no matter how courageous others were, they wouldn't dare to covet it.
Sun and Moon Heart Furnace, Team Leader He had never heard of it.
Even if she wanted to learn, she wouldn't dare to ask.
This was passed down by the peak master, or a technique that no one knew about.
Asking for it would be like stealing the peak master's secret technique.
No disciple could bear such consequences.
In the end, she gave an instruction and left.
Telling Gu An to pay attention to his condition to prevent accidents from happening.
Gu An ignored everything else and continued to chop wood.
By this time the day after tomorrow, the术法 should be full.
It would take four days.
It was just that this evening, Gu An suddenly received a message from Pang Wen.
Telling him that the people in One Courtyard seemed to be poisoned.
Everyone's cultivation had some blockages, and they couldn't even fly with their swords.
Gu An knew that what was coming had come.
Senior Sister Tang Lan had begun to act.
Gu An used the communication talisman to tell Pang Wen and others to try to stay in One Courtyard as much as possible, not to go out, and not to start conflicts with others.
After that, Gu An continued to chop wood.
A warm current began to appear.
术法 plus one.
Bitter cultivation plus one.
On the third day, Gu An looked at the panel below.
[术法: 40/50]
[Bitter Cultivation: 31/100]
As expected, bitter cultivation increased by eight points.
So, Gu An continued to chop wood.
On the fourth day.
The术法 was indeed full, and the bitter cultivation had also reached thirty-nine.
Not daring to delay, Gu An went directly to Sky Suspension Peak.
Started extracting术法.
Enhance the Seven Emotions and Six Desires chapter.
He had previously enhanced it twice, and now he was going to enhance the third emotion in the seven emotions.
After extracting the术法, Gu An fell into a dream.
At this time, he was sitting on the surface of a lake, and the water below began to surge.
As if the thoughts in his heart began to shake.
Seeming to worry that the lake water was gradually turning into huge waves.
Gu An watched, listened, and felt.
Finally, he slowly closed his eyes, no longer looking, no longer listening, no longer feeling.
Gradually began to forget everything.
After an unknown amount of time, the water on the lake began to calm down.
Finally, it was like a mirror.
There were no more fluctuations.
So Gu An opened his eyes.
Now he had successfully learned the worry in the Seven Emotions and Six Desires.
For a time, he felt that there was no need to overthink other things.
Worry could not bring any benefits.
His mind was stable.
Gu An felt that he was a little unfamiliar with himself.
But soon the Seven Emotions and Six Desires chapter was interrupted by him.
Only then did he recover.
"I wonder what I will become if I completely learn the Seven Emotions and Six Desires chapter."
Gu An shook his head.
Most of the day had passed, and he needed to go back to continue chopping wood.
After that, he went to the Luo Sheng Hall again.
Now it was close to evening for chopping wood.
He would have to come at this time tomorrow to count.
After that, no one disturbed him again, and he chopped wood for a whole day.
On the evening of the fifth day.
Gu An looked at the panel.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
This time, the enhancement of the Seven Emotions and Six Desires chapter did not affect the acquisition of术法.
But just as he stopped, a message flew over.
It was still Pang Wen.
Saying that their poison had been解了, it was inexplicably解了, and the people in the other courtyards had started to get poisoned.
Not only that, but other courtyards also had some problems.
It seemed that resources had been stolen.
There seemed to have been fights outside One Courtyard.
But it was unknown who it was.
In addition, Pang Wen also said that their mission progress was all stuck, not only could they not continue, but they might also face punishment.
Gu An was slightly surprised.
"The poison has been解了?"
As for the other things, Gu An could understand, the other courtyards were poisoned, naturally to compete for the resources of the last month.
Everyone wanted to become the person for the marriage alliance.
And the fact that the Second Team's mission was stuck, and even faced punishment, was still Senior Sister Tang Lan's doing.
"It feels like things are getting mixed together and becoming complicated."
Then Gu An replied to Pang Wen, the Second Team would submit to the punishment, and One Courtyard would act according to the circumstances, if they went out, they would bring Ye Xiu, the last month of the Six Courtyard competition, many things would definitely happen.
Fortunately, One Courtyard did not have the idea of competing, hoping that there would be less trouble,
After that, Gu An began to continue chopping wood.
It didn't matter what One Courtyard did, as long as he improved his strength, everything else would be easy.
Peak Outside Peak.
In the shadows of One Courtyard.
A middle-aged man looked at One Courtyard, lowering his eyebrows: "Senior Sister Xue Ying was still anxious, and died inexplicably in the end, fortunately it fulfilled me.
I obtained the Reincarnation Wheel under her name, I broke through it, and reached the cultivation she dreamed of.
Now the Reincarnation Wheel lineage of the Azure Wood Sect cannot compete with me.
The people of the Azure Wood Sect actually want to directly disintegrate One Courtyard, wishful thinking.
What poison, what danger, will be strangled by me.
If you mess around, then don't blame me for muddying the waters.
Don't think about having a good time."
For a time, the Six Courtyards of Peak Outside Peak began to be in chaos.
Especially the supporters, began to look for people everywhere.
Wanting to see who did it.
And they could naturally investigate this special poison.
Spirit Control Peak.
Tang Lan was a little worried.
If they were really investigated by the supporters of each courtyard, they would be attacked from both sides.
But the man drinking tea smiled: "To make a move so quickly means that they are not hiding very deeply, a false alarm."
