Chapter 50: The Middle Stage!
Nightfall. The moon is like a silver platter, appearing among the clouds. The stars spread thinly around.
Gu Yue Mo Bei stood in the courtyard, raising his head, his eyes glittering under the reflection of the moon.
"Big brother, I heard you got hurt today." Behind him, the voice of his sister Gu Yue Mo Yan echoed.
“Sister, you are worried after being beaten until I vomit blood today, I will experience a lasting trauma?” Mo bei turned around and curled his lips.
Seeing her brother laugh, Mo Yan's heart felt at ease. Although he was really worried, he instead said, “No way, big brother here understands you the most. Good brother, you have a persistent will, the future head of our Mo family. How can you be afraid of such a small injury? ”
"Hehehe, I know big brother loves me very much," Mo Bei scratched the back of his head while laughing coyly.
“You know, brother?” Under the radiance of the moon, the eyes of this fifteen-year-old teenager radiated brightly. “Although I failed this time, I heard Fang Yuan gasping for air during the match. Back then he easily defeated me in two or three attacks in a calm and composed manner. But his breath was already showing his weakness. He was clearly not as strong as others thought. One day, I will beat him fairly.”
"Good, as expected of a good man from my Mo lineage!" Mo Yan laughed, patting her brother's head, showing worry on his face, "However, you suffered from internal injuries, so please don't practice your martial arts these few days."
"Don't touch my sister, I'm old enough." Mo Bei raised his head, using a displeased tone, "I understand what you are saying, I have a plan. These few days, I will maintain my aperture wall. To fully break through from the early stage to the middle stage and obtain the position of class leader, and suppress Fang Yuan's dominance. I will tell him that, what really matters to Master Gu's cultivation is talent! ”
“I'm glad you can think like this. I was only vice-chairman last time. If you manage to become the chairman, it will fulfill my regrets as well. ”
“Don't worry brother. Chairman position, I definitely have to get it! ”
At the same time, in the Chi family.
Inside the secret room, there was only one torch, attached to a hole in the limestone wall.
A flame lit up, illuminating this small room.
One of the two powerful elders, Gu Yue Chi Lian, was sitting facing her grandson, Gu Yue Chi Cheng. The two sat on the prayer mat with their shadows projected on the ground, wavering with the blink of a flame.
Gu Yue Chi Lian extended her hand, using her palm to touch Chi Cheng's stomach area.
Gu Yue Chi Chen's face was full of anxiety, his mind entering his crevice, suppressing the ripples in the ancient sea with all his concentration.
In this world, no two tree leaves are identical. Similar to Gu Masters, no ancient essence was identical as well.
Once the primordial essence of an external source entered the aperture, it would generate the natural resistance of the original primordial essence in the aperture.
If Gu Yue Chi Cheng did not suppress it, and instead let his ancient essence fight, it would result in a clash between the essences. Such intensive reactions can cause major damage to the aperture.
The ancient sea of openings was the foundation and root of Master Gu's cultivation, and was extremely important.
After the aperture was broken, at least one's cultivation could decrease, but if it was severe, their latent talent could also be lowered. Once the aperture is completely destroyed, Master Gu will die soon.
After a while, Gu Yue Chi Lian gradually stopped transmitting the primordial essence, slowly taking back her hand.
Gu Yue Chi Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, his tense body relaxed. “Thank you Grandfather, for having nurtured my openings and transfused the primordial essence to me every three days. That's hard for you!”
Gu Yue Chi Lian's forehead was filled with sweat, and she sighed and said, “This is inevitable. Your talent is only C class, so if we rely on your own abilities to rise to the intermediate stage, it will take a long time. Time is usually twice the value of B, and four times the value of A. In such a situation, your talent will be revealed. So, even though this method is dangerous, we should use it.”
"Grandchild understands grandfather's intentions."
"As long as you understand." The old man sighed, “This method also has another sequel. Once your openings have been nourished by my silver primordial essence, although the silver primordial essence has a greater effect, it is still an external source of primordial essence to you. For the next, even if your aperture wall changes from a light wall to a water wall, it will still mix with my energy. The more external energy there is, the less pure your openings are, and this will cripple your talent, limiting your development in the future.”
Gu Yue Chi Cheng bit his lips, "Grandfather, for the sake of the future of the Chi family, I am willing to sacrifice my future prospects!"
Gu Yue Chi Lian was happy, stroking her beard. “Good if you have such thoughts. But the sky always leaves a glimmer of hope for you, because you are not yet desperate. If we can find Cleansing Water Gu, it will be able to clean your aperture wall and expend all the external energy in your aperture sea, eliminating this sequel.”
“In addition, I also used my relationship to search for Liquor worms for you. These worms were able to help Master Gu Rank one refine their primordial essence and enhance it with one small realm. In this way the refined primordial essence will become the primordial essence of your own body and not the external essence. Using this way to maintain your aperture leaves no impact and risk, this is a much better parenting effect!”
Gu Yue Chi Lian was overjoyed. "Thank you grandpa!"
“However, the Liquor worm is hard to find. Among the rank one Gu worms, Liquor worms, Gu boar, and Book Worms etc, all of them were extremely rare Gu. Once they appeared in the market, they would be snatched away immediately. Of course, there were also some Gu in this world who were rumored to change Master Gu's talent. But at this age, grandfather had never seen one, only hearing occasional rumors about them. ” The old man explained.
The night wind blew gently from the window and into the room.
Gu Yue Fang Zheng sat on his bed with his eyes closed, holding an ancient stone in both of his hands.
An ancient sea of green copper raged without wind, waves crashing towards the wall of the white hole.
He had A rank talent, and his ancient essence occupied 80% of the aperture. His natural recovery rate was twice that of Fang Yuan!
With such a blessed advantage, he was already close to a mid stage one rank.
Phew.
A while later, Gu Yue Fang Zheng sighed and opened his eyes.
The bright moon and the stars were rarely outside the windows, the bluish-green bamboo houses were lined up.
A scene of peace and harmony.
Once the primordial stone essence had been taken away completely, it would turn into a pile of powder.
Looking at the pile of powder, Fang Zheng frowned.
He took out his money bag; it was almost empty.
Opening it, he saw three ancient stones left inside.
Fang Zheng would take three pieces every seven days from the academy as resources, but since Fang Yuan would take a piece from him, he only had two left each week.
Uncle and Aunt would also give him living expenses, but also three stones every seven days.
Just with these ancient stones, how was that enough?
Fang Zheng was determined to surpass his brother Fang Yuan, so he took the initiative to approach his uncle and aunt several times to ask for some ancient stones.
After so many times, her aunt would look for her to chat from heart to heart, telling her about how poor the family was, and how they were having cash flow difficulties, not having spare money. Since then, Fang Zheng had no desire to continue asking.
“Dad and mom have done all they can to support my cultivation. I cannot complicate them and ask for more ancient stones. I only have three left. I can only be more efficient. If I use one piece a day, I will have enough for three days. ”
“I feel that in three or four days, I will definitely progress to the middle stage! The only thing is, what is the progress of big brother now? ” Thinking so, Fang Zheng subconsciously looked towards the residence of the academy.
“I have class A talent, whereas elder brother only has class C talent. His speed must be slower than mine. Brother is no match for me this time! Big brother, I will tell you the true strength of an A-grade talent! ”
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng clenched his fists.
……
Academy Dormitory.
Fang Yuan's door was tightly shut.
In the darkness, he did not sleep, but sat on his bed.
The cultivation of a Master Gu cannot replace sleep. Normally at this moment, Fang Yuan was already asleep.
But in cultivating earlier today, he already felt that he was only a step away from the middle stage.
"I might as well not sleep tonight, I'll rush straight to the middle stage!" His eyes shone with determination.
Immediately after, he closed his eyes and his mind went into the crack.
44% of the ancient sea is copper green. Just a moment ago, they were all refined into pale green-colored intermediate stage primordial essence by liquor worms.
"Rise." With a thought, the peaceful green copper ancient sea began to move.
The commotion grew bigger and bigger, until waves formed.
Sparks, splashes, splashes…
The tide raced against each other, rushing towards the surrounding aperture wall.
Like crashing into a reef, most of the ancient essence would break into emerald ripples and fuse back into the sea.
A small amount of primordial essence was ejected, turning into a hint of invisible energy, penetrating into the white-colored light aperture wall.
Rise up again, Fang Yuan thought as the emerald ripples became larger in scale. The previous waves were like rabbits and dogs, but now they were like an army of horses, marching towards the wall of the pit.
A dragon is like a horse, its waves are like heaven!
The primordial essence was ejected rapidly, and the water surface dropped sharply.
Sparks, splashes, splashes…
The waves struck relentlessly, eventually resulting in a change. The white-colored walls suddenly shook, the originally soft white color exuding an eye-piercing brilliance.
Seeing this scene, Fang Yuan was overjoyed because he knew that an important part had arrived, and he quickly activated all of the primordial essences to rush into the wall.
The white light grew brighter, the light rays distorted and tangled together, giving people a thick feeling. After more than ten breaths, white lines of light bands appeared on the wall of light, and those lines collided with each other like endless flowing water. In the process of collision, they continued to merge and merge, forming a flowing white light.
Finally, the flowing light gathered into one and completely covered the wall of light.
The white light dimmed, and the original white light wall of the aperture disappeared, replaced by a layer of spherical white water wall. The surface of the light wall was smooth without dirt. The wall of water however, thicker than the wall of light, ripples of light flowed and flickered over it.
The primordial sea regained its peace, the aperture still had 20% of the primordial essence left.
"I'm advancing to the middle stage!" Fang Yuan laughed out loud, opening his eyes.
Bright sunlight crept in through the openings in the curtains.
Unknowingly, the night had passed, and it was already morning.
