Chapter 47

"If a monkey like you doesn't steal bananas, why would you steal this thing?"

Gu Chen said angrily, but he still picked up the white crystal and looked at it carefully.

This thing was cold to the touch, if a mortal touched it, his body would probably be frozen.

Other than that, there was nothing special about it.

"Neigh —"

In the distance, warhorses neighed, and a large number of hooves approached.

"Not good."

Gu Chen's face changed. Could it be that the movement of the innate aura was too big and attracted other dead things?

A ghost soldier wearing rusty armor and riding a rotten horse appeared on the street, holding an ancient bronze spear high in his hand.

Gu Chen's expression tightened, and the Cold Star Sword was about to be unsheathed.

Whoosh.

The white ape ran away with a pile of crystals. Only then did Gu Chen see that other than the ghost soldiers, there were one, ten, a hundred …

At least hundreds of ghost soldiers were alarmed, and there was a strange roar in the distance.

"Disloyal bastard!"

Gu Chen scolded the white ape and immediately ran. He didn't want to be entangled with a group of dead things!

Jia Jia.

Perhaps his previous behavior had violated the taboo of the Ghost Ruins, the ghost soldiers who had never cared about Gu Chen rushed towards him.

Their speed was too fast, like the wind, there was no way he could escape.

"Get lost!"

Gu Chen turned back and shouted while running, and once again used the innate aura.

Boom.

The dozen or so warhorses leading the charge collapsed to the ground, and a group of Yin soldiers also fell to the ground.

This directly caused all the ghost soldiers behind to collide with each other, and they were thrown off their horses!

Gu Chen breathed a sigh of relief, but saw a huge hazy shadow behind the street, and the ground trembled with its footsteps.

Clatter.

The sound of chains dragging on the ground was heard, and it made people's scalp tingle, as if some peerless evil spirit had been disturbed.

In the night, strange roars came one after another, and ghost fires burned everywhere. Because of Gu Chen's two attacks, the Ghost Ruins seemed to be boiling!

"Not good, it's too big."

Gu Chen's scalp went numb as he recalled all the rumors he had heard in the Ghastly Ruins.

Behind him came the howls of ghosts and howls of wolves. A chilly wind blew, but Gu Chen did not look back as he ran straight out of the Ruins of Ghosts!

After running for an unknown period of time, the cries of the ghosts behind him finally stopped. By then, Gu Chen had already escaped to the outside of the Ghastly Ruins. He was so scared that his whole body was covered in cold sweat.

"Jiji!"

White Ape had escaped long ago. He was calm and composed. He picked up a banana from somewhere and handed it to Gu Chen with a sympathetic expression.

"You stinky monkey, see if I don't teach you a lesson."

Gu Chen was enraged. He had almost died in the Ruins of Ghosts just now. His hand moved like lightning to grab the white ape's buttocks and whipped it violently!

The white ape howled twice and quickly broke free from Gu Chen's grasp, fleeing up the tree.

Gu Chen's anger subsided a little, and he turned back to look at the Ghost Ruins.

"What is that huge black shadow? How did the Ruins of Ghosts form? "

He had a lot of questions in his heart, but he could not get an answer. He only knew that he did not have the courage to go in again.

Fortunately, he had run in the opposite direction of Feng Lin Mansion. At this time, he was thousands of miles away, and his safety was greatly guaranteed.

"The innate aura caused a huge commotion, and I can't accurately control the range for the time being. Moreover, once I use this ability, it will easily expose the fact that I have the Tyrant Bone. It seems that I must not use it in the future unless I have no other choice. "

With the experience of using aura twice, Gu Chen thought to himself.

After resting enough, Gu Chen got up and looked for a suitable campsite.

Although he had walked out of the Ruins of Ghosts, he did not plan to leave the Forbidden Forest for the time being.

It had only been a few days since the appearance of the assassins from the Nether God Palace. Their search network must be very tight.

Although he had entered the Divine Realm, he had too few skills.

The most obvious one was his speed.

Thinking of this, Gu Chen glanced at the white ape who was cautiously following behind him with a face full of guilt.

This little guy had just been severely spanked by him, and it seemed to be a little more obedient. It carried a large bag of white crystals and followed quietly.

Whether it was when he was being chased by the Nether God Palace or when he had just escaped from the Ruins of Ghosts, Gu Chen's speed was really not good. Even the white ape could easily beat him.

He needed to learn a powerful method to increase his speed, otherwise this shortcoming would sooner or later kill him.

He immediately thought of the 88 Layers of Heavens Secret Technique.

Previously, when he was practicing the first layer of Heavens Secret Technique, because his realm was too low, he could not get started with the Stars Carrying Moon Steps and the Sun Embracing Moon Hammer.

Now, he was a cultivator of the Divine Realm, and his soul realm had greatly improved. Now that he was learning these two secret techniques, he had a little more confidence.

In addition, he had obtained several ancient books from the assassins from the Nether God Palace. Among them, the "Five Fingers Fire Catching Technique", "Breath Control Technique", and "Netherworld Body Technique" were very practical.

He decided to practice in the periphery of the Ruins of Ghosts before the outside world's limelight died down. Mastering a few more skills would increase his ability to protect his life.

From that day onwards, Gu Chen opened a cave residence on a hill near the Ruins of Ghosts, and diligently practiced his spells and martial arts.

Every time he mastered a spell, he would have more hope for revenge. With the obsession in his heart, Gu Chen practiced without eating or sleeping. He was ten times more diligent than when he was in the Dustless Sect!

During the day, he would chase after demonic beasts in the forest, alternating between the Netherworld Body Technique and the Stars Carrying Moon Steps.

At night, he would sit by the bonfire while the white ape gnawed on the fragrant beast meat. He would hold the ancient book in one hand as if deep in thought, while his other hand would nimbly manipulate the flame.

Sometimes, in the morning and evening, when the sun and the moon occasionally hung high in the sky at the same time, he would stand on the peak of the mountain, inhaling and exhaling the essence of the sun and the moon, his hands drawing strange circles.

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

Gu Chen's lush black hair had grown a lot longer, and his skin had become a healthy wheat color because he had deliberately tanned.

Compared to a month ago, he had changed a lot. He had grown taller, and his original delicate features had become more resolute and indifferent.

Gu Chen had already mastered the "Five Fingers Catching Fire Technique", "Breath Holding Technique", and "Netherworld Body Technique", which he had obtained from the assassin of the Nether God Palace.

Among them, he had only used a day and a half to master the "Five Fingers Catching Fire Technique", "Breath Holding Technique", and "Netherworld Body Technique".

He was originally a genius, and his comprehension of spells was extremely high.

Compared to these few techniques, the progress of the Stars Carrying Moon Steps and the Sun Embracing Moon Hammer was much slower.

The realm of the thirty-three secret techniques was too profound. When these two secret techniques were cultivated to perfection, they would be earth-shattering. Therefore, even if Gu Chen had only grasped a little bit of it, he would still benefit a lot.

He could already take two steps of the Stars Carrying Moon Steps. With one step, he could move a distance of up to three hundred meters, which was close to teleportation.

Unfortunately, after taking two steps, the footwork came to an abrupt halt and could not be continued. Gu Chen guessed that it might have something to do with his insufficient cultivation and that he was only at the early stage of the Divine Power Realm.

To his surprise, the little bit of understanding of the Stars Carrying Moon Steps had actually increased the speed of the Netherworld Body Technique that he had just cultivated by three times. Now, in the Forbidden Forest, there were almost no savage beasts that could shake him off.

In a month's time, his cultivation had only increased from the early stage of the Divine Power Realm to the peak of the early stage of the Divine Power Realm, but his strength had increased more than a hundred times. He was already a true cultivator.
