Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 87: Apathy
Gu Xiaoxue was shocked when Shao Mingzhen suddenly asked her. He calmed her down before she smiled, “Your guess is right, why should you ask me? To be honest, his cultivation is much lower than yours. But ... who could have thought that he would be able to break through the fourth layer? ”
“This is really the fourth layer?”
Shao Mingzhen stunned. He just guessed it. But now that he had received confirmation, he also shared a surprise. He was not an ordinary person who had good judgment regarding the abilities of others. But only now did he realize that he had been wrong. He really can't judge a person just by looking at his appearance, just like you can't measure the depth of the ocean with a pint pot. And this time, he was completely wrong for no reason.
Gu Xiaoxue added, “I don't want to admit it but the fact is right in front of your eyes.”
Shao Mingzhen angrily gulped her saliva and could not say anything for a moment. He had seen a genius cultivator before. But for a monster like Tang Xiu, never once had he heard or found one.
“I suspect he should be a Grandmaster Array formation!”
Gu Xiaoxue hesitated for a moment before continuing in a low voice.
“What what? Is this a joke?”
Miao Wentang reluctantly propped himself up from the ground and exclaimed in a hoarse voice.
Gu Xiaoxue coldly glanced at him as she humped and said, “Hmph! If he was not an Array Grandmaster, how could he easily break down the first three layers of the array? I can see that his cultivation is not deep, I'm 100% sure about it. Your cultivation is much higher, but can you break through to the fourth layer? ”
“I-This ..”
Miao Wentang was silent. He could only feel his face burning as if he was slapped with an invisible hand, leaving him to feel a sort of feeling of sadness and shame!
A few meters outside …
Jia Ruidao looked at Tang Xiu's figure in astonishment. His mouth was agape, large enough that he could even swallow a duck egg. His first disciple by his side, Gong Dalong whispered, “Master, Master Tang seems like he is very strong! He could even walk further into the center of the square compared to the previous two men. ”
Jia Ruidao slowly turned her head. The blank expression in his eyes was greatly reduced when he replied in a bitter tone, “But still, I don't want him to continue rushing to a higher level now. If he continued to hurry, the chances of him getting injured were also greater. He could be seriously hurt. ”
Gong Dalong also froze and fell silent.
His master's worries are right. If Tang Xiu was seriously injured, then tomorrow's gambling match would be involved, even everything would be completely finished.
The Thousand Revolution Array …
Tang Xiu continued to observe as more Snow Wolves approached. The smile on his face grew bigger. Had it been for someone else, they would have trembled and been scared to death. But, he's not someone else. He was the creator of this Thousand Revolution Array and knew everything about breaking up this array.
“Arooooo ..”
The sound of the wolf wolf turned into a stretch of sound that filled and shocked the entire sky. But something strange happened. A group of wolves coming from all directions stopped tens of meters away from Tang Xiu, as their cold greenish eyes preyed on something other than Tang Xiu. It was the Mitsubishi army knife they saw.
The key point in the formation array was the knowledge of pattern patterns.
Not only did Tang Xiu know about the crux of the matter, but he also knew the layout of the pattern. The spot that was pierced by his Mitsubishi army knife was exactly the connection point to the core. As long as he did not pull the knife, the Snow Wolf would not attack him. The key point in breaking the Winter Carnage of the fourth layer was to hold on to time. As long as one was able to endure the time value of the burning incense, the fourth layer would eventually collapse by itself.
Shortly after, the time value of the burning incense stick had passed.
“Buzzing..”
The surrounding scenery changed as the world of ice and snow disappeared and was replaced with a yellow sandy path. There was an unceasing surging river behind the path.
A man wearing a raincoat was holding an old fishing line as he sat alone on a small boat in the river. The boat turned around and automatically approached Tang Xiu slowly as he appeared.
“Tolder!”
Tang Xiu spoke calmly.
The old man smiled and said, “I welcome your arrival. It is an honor to serve you. ”
Tang jumped onto the boat and calmly replied, “I want to cross the river.”
“On your service!”
The old man nodded and smiled.
The boat glided and slowly moved towards the middle of the river. However, the old man suddenly disappeared and was replaced with a whirlwind. The boat began to tremble violently as Swordfishes endlessly leaped over the surrounding river water and aimed at Tang Xiu. At the same time, a group of Vermillion Birds blazing in flames suddenly flew in the sky as they charged towards Tang Xiu with their sharp beaks and claws.
“Xiuer, Mum misses you.”
An illusion appeared in Tang Xiu's eyes. She was at home when her mother cried as she rushed towards him.
“Hmph ....”.
Tang Xiu let out a cold snort as his aura suddenly exploded and shattered the surrounding scene in an instant. He had experienced this illusion in this dreamland many times. Had it happened before, he could have submerged himself in this dreamland for a long time even though he was clearly aware that his mother was just an illusion. It was because he missed his mother so much. But right now, since he had returned from the Eternal World and could see his mother easily, he did not need to suffer anymore and did not have the slightest disturbance on him.
“Destroying!”
Moreover, the key point to breaking through this layer was not to kill all the Swordfishes and Blazing Vermillion birds, but to cross the river and go to the other side by boat quickly.
Outside the Thousand Revolution Array …
The terrifying speed that Tang Xiu had displayed in breaking the array had constantly shocked Gu Xiaoxue to numbness. He originally thought that the fourth layer would be Tang Xiu's boundary. However, the current scene left him flabbergasted and made him completely flustered.
He was extremely strong, to the point that he could kill Tang Xiu with just a pat. But if she asked herself, she would never be able to reach Tang Xiu's level. He had challenged arrays since he was 10 years old for hundreds if not thousands of times. And never once did he break into the fifth layer.
What kind of world is the fifth layer?
He had only heard of it but had never seen it!
“Even if someone was the Grandmaster Array, they would never be like him, right?”
Regret filled Gu Xiaoxue because of the humiliation and humiliation she had and committed against Tang Xiu. The heaven-defying ability that Tang Xiu had shown to break up the array had destroyed his senses.
At this moment, Miao Wentang's face was like a piece of paper. He looked at Shao Mingzhen and could barely resist the urge to pull Shao Mingzhen away due to his embarrassment.
This was the disgrace he had brought upon himself and now he finally felt this bitter feeling, which was even more bitter than the goldthread rhizome medicine.
“Excellent!”
With empty eyes, Shao Mingzhen muttered.
But his words were like a sharp knife that fiercely pierced Miao Wentang's heart, the pain even making him barely cry.
As for the audience, although some of the spectators had left, but most of them were still waiting. They did not know what layer Tang Xiu was penetrating, but seeing that Tang Xiu had walked further away from Shao Mingzhen and Miao Wentang, they knew that Tang Xiu was stronger than the two of them.
“Must be!”
A loud shout came from Gu Xiaoxue.
At the next moment, everyone also discovered that Tang Xiu was walking 7 or 8 meters forward towards the center of the square.
Shao Mingzhen turned her head and hurriedly asked Gu Xiu with a shocked expression, “Nona Gu, Tang Xiu, B-She .. She made it again?”
“Iya nih!”
With a mind numb from shock, Gu Xiaoxue nodded and replied.
Shao Mingzhen muttered with a blank expression, “Fifth layer, he broke the fifth layer and not to the sixth layer. … Doesn't this make too much sense? ”
“This is so terrible!”
A complicated expression filled Gu Xiaoxue's eyes. An unexpected feeling filled her heart staring at Tang Xiu's figure. She remembered when she had met Tang Xiu until now, only then did she realize that she could not see him. He was as if the moon was reflected in the water, covered and enveloped by illusions.
Shortly after…
Tang Xiu came out of the Thousand Revolution Array. Her skin was a little paler, but there was no hint that she was getting more depressed when all eyes were fixated on her as she came out.
“Now, I am qualified to be an honored guest in the Eternal Party Hall, huh?”
Tang Xiu calmly asked as he came in front of Gu Xiaoxue.
Gu Xiaoxue nodded involuntarily. But he immediately came to his senses and quickly asked, “Tang Xiu, your cultivation is obviously very low, but how can you break through to the sixth layer? My master was the one who deployed this Thousand Revolutions Array decades ago. Although only a few people challenged this array, but even the most powerful of all were only able to break through to the fifth layer … Never once has it ever happened that anyone can get into the sixth. How do you do it?”
Tang Xiu said, “No comments.”
“You..”.
Gu Xiaoxue's heart was like a cat that was caught, struggling and unable to calm down. But, she was helpless even though she was angry at getting apathy from Tang Xiu.
Tang Xiu no longer looked at her and turned towards Shao Mingzhen and Miao Wentang, and said lightly, “I'll give you a prescription later. But remember your commitment. ”
After saying that, he glanced at the shocked Jia Ruidao and his students, and walked towards the elegant classical attic in the forest. Although he was afraid to confirm the possibility that Master Gu Xiaoxue could become his disciple, but he was completely convinced that they should have a close relationship.
When he first heard of his beloved disciple, he was overjoyed. But after passing through to challenge the Thousand Revolution Array, his heart finally calmed down. Given that even his trusted wife and friend could betray him, then if …
Tang Xiu was afraid to dig further. He could not withstand such a traumatic blow anymore, so he immediately chose to give up.
The most important thing for him right now was to cultivate himself. Giving all to return to the highest stage of the Realm like it used to be. For that moment, for all those who had betrayed him, they would have to pay a heavy and painful price.
His heart was not made of steel or stone. But he is also not a person who is easy to give up or weak-hearted to start with. He would never provoke others, but if others provoked him, they would have to pay 10 times the price.
He prayed. He prayed throughout the heavens, to the Gods and Buddhas that they might protect and bless those who had betrayed and wounded him. To keep them safe and sound until the time comes for him to personally visit them, and request the payment of their debts that have been due.
