Chapter 249

There were thousands of springs in the Qixia Spring. It was said that there was originally a spirit vein underground which was fixed by the power of the True Martial Arts Academy and connected to many springs.

Since then, there was a massive amount of Heaven and Earth vitality gushing out from the spring. It was so dense that it looked like the sky was filled with light.

The efficiency of cultivation in the spring was amazing. Therefore, the Qixia Spring was a very popular cultivation place in the True Martial Arts Academy.

At the northernmost spring of the Qixia Spring, Gu Chen was sitting there, breathing in and out the Heaven and Earth vitality.

It had been a few days since he returned to the True Martial Arts Academy. Gu Chen often went there to cultivate when he had nothing to do.

His current cultivation level was in the middle stage of Nirvana, and the golden vitality in his Dantian was liquid. It had expanded from the lake shape when he was in the early stage of Nirvana to the size of a river.

When the vitality was as majestic as the ocean, he could step into the later stage of Nirvana.

When the liquid vitality reached its peak, it would change from liquid to solid, forming the Golden Elixir of Immortality. He would become a dragon and a king.

When a cultivator stepped into the immortal-level from Nirvana, his body would be reborn again, and his lifespan would be greatly extended. That was how the name immortal-level came about.

Stepping into the immortal-level as soon as possible was the goal that Gu Chen set for himself.

In the True Martial Arts Academy, there was a superior cultivation environment, and there were no distractions. Coupled with the pile of precious elixirs he had just bought from the Merit and Virtue Shop, Gu Chen's cultivation had progressed at a rapid pace in the past few days.

The vitality in his body followed the route of the Nature of the Heavenly Star Technique for a few days, absorbing the efficacy of the pills and a massive amount of vitality. When it returned to his Dantian, it was obviously stronger than yesterday.

At that moment, Gu Chen stopped cultivating and took out a secret manual, reading it carefully.

This secret manual came from He Fangzheng. It was some of his understanding and understanding of the Deadly Musical Fist.

During the battle with He Fangzheng that night, He Fangzheng's Rhythmic Killing Fist had given Gu Chen a lot of trouble. He had never thought that sound could be so lethal.

Therefore, he could not forget it. After finding this secret manual from He Fangzheng's belongings, he would take it out from time to time to study it, hoping to gain something.

The Rhythmic Deathblow was created based on He Fangzheng's modified body and tone bones. Therefore, it was extremely difficult to replicate its might.

However, all methods lead to the same destination. With Gu Chen's genius perception, he had gained something in the past few days.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, the muscles in his body expanding and contracting.

Thump! Thump!

Soon, Gu Chen's heartbeat sped up, and a drum-like sound came from his body.

The frequency of this sound was extremely unique. After listening to it for a long time, one would unknowingly feel their body and mind becoming heavy.

His internal organs were gradually throbbing and his blood seemed to be boiling. At this time, Gu Chen suddenly raised a hand and snapped his fingers.

"Clang —"

An ear-piercing sound wave was emitted from his fingertips. Many leaves on a tree in the distance were shaken off.

Although I don't have a sound bone, and it's impossible for my body to be as strange as He Fangzheng's, my body is powerful and my lungs are powerful. I can simulate a sonic attack.

Gu Chen mumbled to himself. He looked at the finger that had emitted the sonic attack and fell into deep thought.

That attack just now was not even enough to kill a cat, let alone kill a person with music temperament.

However, compared to a few days ago when he was completely clueless, he was much better now. He believed that after some time, he would make great progress in this area and create his own Rhythmic Killing Technique.

'It's about time. I should go. '

Gu Chen looked into the distance and saw that the sun was setting. He could not help but stand up and whistle.

A few days ago, he and Mu Ziyu had agreed to treat her to a meal, and the time was set for tonight.

As the person who was treating, he naturally could not be late.

His whistle spread in all directions, but it was very quiet. There was no response.

'This little guy, where did he run off to? '

Gu Chen had a helpless look on his face. He had been cultivating here for the past few days, but the white ape found it boring and refused to cultivate, so it kept running around.

Now that there was no response, it must have run off again.

The academy was very peaceful, so Gu Chen was not worried about its safety. Instead, he was worried that it would go back to its old habits and go around sneaking around again.

After waiting for a long time and not seeing the white ape return, Gu Chen simply went back to his residence. After all, the white ape knew the way.

Along the way, Gu Chen's expression gradually became solemn as he continued walking.

Vaguely, he actually felt that someone was spying on him.

At first, he thought that he was being too sensitive and thinking too much, but he suddenly turned his head and saw a black shadow flash past the corner.

He almost immediately chased after it, but he did not find any traces of anyone.

'What's going on? '

He frowned and continued walking forward until he reached a crowded place. Only then did the feeling of being spied on gradually disappear.

"Brother Chen, what's wrong? You look like you have something on your mind."

When they arrived at the agreed place, Shi Jian saw Gu Chen and asked with a smile.

Today, he was treating Mu Ziyu to a meal because Gu Chen wanted to facilitate a meeting between Shi Jian and her.

In True Martial Arts Academy, the young master of the Stone clan was one of Gu Chen's few friends. He had helped him twice.

The first was the gathering under the blood moon. He had brought him there, which was how he had met Ye Qingshuang and found clues about Jiang Yige.

The second was the information about the Demon King, Sun Jinming. He had answered some of his doubts.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. He remembered that Shi Jian had always wanted to meet Mu Ziyu through him. This was not an unreasonable request, so he facilitated this meal.

When Shi Jian heard that Gu Chen was willing to help him, he was obviously in a good mood. He had been waiting at the agreed place for a long time.

"Nothing."

Gu Chen came back to his senses. He did not discover who was spying on him. It would not be good to say it rashly, so he decided not to.

"Let's go. Miss Mu might have already arrived at the Chuyun Tower. Don't let her wait too long."

Gu Chen smiled and left with Shi Jian.

As soon as the two left, a beautiful figure walked out from the shadows. It was Ling Xiaoxiao. She had a charming face, but her eyes were sinister and strange.

"His senses are sharp. The Old Man has always been good at stealth, but he was almost discovered."

"Hmph, I wanted to make a move when he left True Martial Arts Academy. I didn't expect him to stay here all day."

"This woman's body has been trained with a secret technique. She can display the strength of a perfect magical ability. However, it will not be easy to take down that kid."

"Looks like I have to think of another way."

She muttered.

When Gu Chen and Shi Jian arrived at the entrance of the Chuyun Tower, Mu Ziyu was already there.

She was not alone. Ye Qingshuang, who had just recovered, was beside her.

When she saw Gu Chen, Ye Qingshuang only nodded as a greeting. Mu Ziyu smiled and teased, "You are quite generous.

You actually invited me to the Chuyun Tower for a meal. A meal here is equivalent to a month's salary for a small manager, right?

"However, you have 'extra income'. This meal is nothing. I will eat you until you are poor today."

Gu Chen found it funny. He knew that Mu Ziyu was still holding a grudge against him for hiding his identity and was deliberately mocking him.
