Chapter 10 Sea of ​​Consciousness

Gu Changhuan secretly warned himself not to reveal any flaws, so as not to bring disaster to himself and the Gu family. His cultivation level is too low at the moment, so he should work hard to cultivate. Only when he becomes stronger can he make better use of this rare treasure.

Gu Xuanzhan nodded and began to tell Gu Changhuan about monsters

"The so-called monsters are beasts with cultivation levels. The cultivation levels of immortal cultivators are divided into high and low levels, strong and weak, and the same is true for monsters. A first-level monster is equivalent to an immortal cultivator in the Qi training stage, and a second-level monster has the strength of an immortal cultivator in the foundation building stage, and so on..."

"The Jiuqi Mountains where my Gu family is located are close to the monster tribe, and are occasionally harassed by monsters. Every hundred years or so, there is a wave of monsters sweeping across. The Gu family is not prosperous, and monsters are the biggest culprit."

Gu Xuanzhan said this with a sad face.

Gu Xuanzhan is the only one left in the Gu family's Xuan generation and the oldest person in the Gu family. I'm afraid he has seen countless relatives die at the hands of monsters in his life. Naturally, they hate monsters.

He took a breath and said,

"Monsters are also an opportunity for us cultivators. The inner elixir of monsters can be used to make pills or tools, the flesh can be eaten, and the tendons and bones are the best materials for refining tools. The inner elixir of some strange monsters can even be used to assist in cultivation.

However, monsters are different from ordinary wild beasts. Monsters have some intelligence. The higher the cultivation level of monsters, the higher the intelligence, and it is difficult to hunt. If a monster cultivates to the fifth level, it can transform into a human form, and its intelligence is comparable to that of humans."

Gu Changhuan listened attentively, thinking: In this way, it would be even more difficult for humans to deal with monsters?

"However, the monsters are not like our human cultivators. In addition to their own cultivation ability, cultivators are also good at using external objects. Magical weapons, talismans, and formations can help cultivators gain advantages in the fight against monsters."

Time passed unknowingly, and when the sun was at its zenith, Gu Xuanzhan stopped explaining.

"Come back tomorrow!"

Gu Changhuan bowed and left the Sutra Library. It was really nice to have only one morning class! Even after deducting an hour of practice time, he still had plenty of free time to do what he wanted.

Gu Changhuan touched his stomach. He had eaten too much lunch yesterday. He had not yet digested the spiritual energy contained in the food. He was not hungry at all.

Since he was not going to the dining hall, Gu Changhuan went straight back to the courtyard. He plunged into Gu Wanhao's study and took a book from the bookshelf to read. As for the jade slips on the bookshelf, it would not be too late to read them when his cultivation level was a little higher.

After reading a miscellaneous note, Gu Changhuan noticed that it was getting late. He returned to his quiet room, opened the formation of the courtyard, and began to practice.

Time passed quickly in Gu Changhuan's study and practice. Half a year passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, someone suddenly visited the courtyard.

"Seventeenth brother! It's me!" Gu Changhuan was sitting under a tree reading a book when he suddenly heard someone calling him.

Gu Changhuan scanned with his spiritual sense and found that it was Gu Changze who came. He was standing outside the formation and shouting, not like a cultivator at all.

Gu Changhuan opened the formation and invited Gu Changze in. Gu Changze walked into the courtyard with a smile and sat opposite Gu Changhuan.

"Congratulations to the sixth brother for his further cultivation." Gu Changhuan took out a pot of spiritual tea from the storage bag and poured half a cup for Gu Changze and himself.

"Seventeenth brother has also reached the second level of Qi training!"

In the past six months, Gu Changhuan has not slacked off for a day and has reached the second level of Qi training a month ago.

Gu Changze has now cultivated to the fourth level of Qi training. Although Gu Changze has three spiritual roots, his main spiritual root is six inches, and his aptitude is still good. Moreover, Gu Changze has also worked very hard in cultivation. It is reasonable that he has broken through to the fourth level of Qi training within half a year.

"Seventeenth brother really has good things here. The spiritual energy in this tea is no less than that of the Qi-nourishing Pill!" Gu Changze exclaimed after taking a sip.

Gu Changhuan smiled, "Sixth brother, thank you for the compliment. Why are you here today? You can't just come here to drink tea, right?"

"Seventeenth brother, you know, the Spirit Test Conference will be held next month! According to the clan rules, we can ask the clan's General Affairs Hall for permission to go home to visit relatives during the Spirit Test Conference."

Gu Changze said that his parents are both mortals, and he would go home to visit his parents every three years during the Spirit Test Conference.

"Seventeenth brother, you also have relatives in the mortal world, right? I came here to ask Seventeenth brother if you want to go to the General Affairs Hall with me, so that you can go home to visit your relatives."

Gu Changhuan thought about it and asked, "But let us go home by ourselves? Or go with the person who presides over the Spirit Test Conference?"

"Of course we go with the person who presides over the Spirit Test Conference. After all, my Gu family is close to the demon clan and we have to be on guard. The person who presides over the Spirit Test Conference is at least in the late stage of Qi training, and our safety can be guaranteed if we go with them." Gu Changze explained.

"In that case, shall we go to the General Affairs Hall now? By the way, I don't know which village my sixth brother's hometown is in. I'm from Yuqing Town." Gu Changhuan said.

If it's not in the same village, it won't be convenient to travel together!

Gu Changze said with a little surprise, "Although I'm not from Yuqing Town, the village where my hometown is located is also under the jurisdiction of Yuqing Town."

"Then let's go to the General Affairs Hall now!"

After Gu Changhuan finished speaking, the two left the courtyard and went to the General Affairs Hall together. In the past six months, Gu Changhuan has already known all the roads in Bifeng Mountain and met many clansmen. Although the Gu family is only a small family in the foundation-building period, the family is very united.

The person in charge of the General Affairs Hall of the Gu Family is Gu Wanhua. He went out to travel a few years ago and just came back a few months ago to take over the position of the elder of the General Affairs Hall. Of course, he is also the organizer of the relevant matters of this spiritual measurement conference. He was not surprised to see Gu Changze and Gu Changhuan, because they were not the first two to come to Gu Wanhua to ask for leave.

"It's Changze and Changhuan! Are you here to apply for a visit?"

Before the two of them opened their mouths, Gu Wanhua asked with a smile.

"Greetings, elder."

"Greetings, elder."

After the two of them saluted Gu Wanhua in a proper manner, Gu Changze spoke first, "Elder is wise! Changhuan and I are both from Yuqing Town. I hope the elder will allow us to go home to visit our relatives."

"The person who will go to Yuqing Town to hold the spirit test conference is your uncle Shiyuan. He will lead the team from Bifeng Mountain on the seventh day of next month. Just remember to find him in advance."

After Gu Wanhua finished speaking, he took out two talismans

"This is a second-level lower-grade defensive talisman, one for each person."

Gu Changze was shocked by Gu Wanhua's generosity. You know, if this second-level lower-grade defensive talisman is taken to the market, it can be sold for at least 500 lower-grade spiritual stones!

"Auntie, this is a defensive talisman worth 500 lower-grade spiritual stones!" Gu Changze did not reach out to take it, but said in a trembling voice.

Seeing Gu Changze's reaction, Gu Changhuan also understood that this talisman was probably extremely precious, at least it was not something that ordinary Qi training cultivators could get at will. He secretly smacked his lips: The elders of the Gu family who are in the foundation building stage are really generous! Since he went up the mountain, he has received several treasures.

Gu Wanhua stuffed the talisman into the hands of the two people, and said proudly, "This talisman is drawn by myself, and..."

Gu Wanhua's expression changed, and he slapped Gu Changze on the head

"What do you mean by aunt? Am I that old?"

Gu Changhuan couldn't help but laugh in a low voice. It seems that no matter whether it is a cultivator or a mortal, any woman hopes to be young and beautiful forever!

"You are indeed the aunt of Changhuan and me! But you are the most beautiful aunt in our Gu family! Even Yu Daoyan, the head of the Yu family, is inferior to you!" Gu Changze knew that he had said something wrong, but he rolled his eyes and opened his mouth to coax Gu Wanhua into a happy mood.

Yu Daoyan mentioned by Gu Changze is a famous beauty in the Jiuqi Mountains, and the head of the Yu family in Yanshan.

"Seventeenth brother, do you think what Sixth brother said is right?" Gu Changze spotted Gu Changhuan laughing secretly and naturally couldn't let him go easily.
