Chapter 7 of the Sixth Chapter: Senior Brother Gu Shan

As an eighth-level extreme person, Xu Jingming has a long lifespan and is naturally patient enough.

On the road of evolution, every step must be steady. If impatience goes astray, spiritual strength may stagnate or even decline.

"Go to the world of demons." Xu Jingming immediately turned into light and flew into the world of demons.

…

The world of demons.

Xu Jingming and Wu Qi, master and servant, had already arrived in front of a huge and towering city.

"As expected of a state city." Xu Jingming looked at the majestic city in front of him. The city wall was dozens of feet high and stretched endlessly on both sides. There were also a large number of guards on the city wall.

"This is the center of the entire Chiyun Prefecture." Wu Qi's hair has turned gray. He looked at the city in front of him in wonder, "I heard that the length and width of the city are over three hundred miles, with a population of tens of millions. Over the years, we have traveled all over the country. We have visited various prefectures in Chiyun Prefecture, and now we have finally arrived at the prefecture city.”

Xu Jingming nodded.

He has been in Chiyun Prefecture for so many years. There are hundreds of prefectures in Chiyun Prefecture, and each prefecture is quite vast. Xu Jingming travels through ten prefectures and a large number of counties in an average year. He travels quickly enough.

"I was born in Chiyun Prefecture, so naturally I have to come to the prefecture city to take a look, let's go and enter the city." Xu Jingming led Wu Qi into the city along the broad city gate.

On top of the city wall, there were many guards overlooking it.

"Um?"

One of the black-armored guards glanced at Xu Jingming, took out a thick book from his arms, flipped through it quickly, and reached one of the pages——

Wu Ming: A high-level demon-slayer (suspected to be in the eighth level). He was born in the Chen family in Bai County, Cheng'an Prefecture. His real name was "Chen Qi" and he was later renamed Wu Ming. This person travels around every prefecture and county in Chiyun Prefecture. He has a chivalrous heart and will take action against weak demons. He has killed more than a hundred earth demons so far, which is hard to count for ordinary demons.

He once stood up for ordinary people and fought against the high-level demon-slayer ‘Zhang Ke’! Zhang Ke was defeated and fled in embarrassment.

Later, a heavenly demon, Zhang Ke and three other high-level demon-slayers besieged Wu Ming. In this battle, the two sides could not decide the winner.

Wu Ming traveled around the country, carrying a gun bag, and was followed by an old servant with a hunchback named Wu Qi. Wu Qi was good at swordsmanship.

"Demon-slayer Wu Ming?" The black-armored guard looked at the portrait attached to the paper. The portrait was lifelike, exactly like Xu Jingming walking with a gun pouch on his back.

"Another high-level demon-slayer is here. You must report it immediately." The black-armored guard told his companions and immediately quietly descended from the city wall.

Xu Jingming and Wu Qi came to a restaurant, sat down by the window, ordered some of the restaurant's signature dishes, and started chatting while eating.

"As expected of Zhoucheng, the craftsmanship is really good." Wu Qi ate happily and praised.

"How can you open such a restaurant in Zhoucheng without any skills?" Xu Jingming held the wine glass and looked at Wu Qi in front of him. Uncle Qi had been taking good care of him over the years. Xu Jingming was not a hard-hearted person. After getting along with him for a long time, I also feel that Uncle Qi is like my relative and friend.

"Uncle Qi is getting older. They signed a contract in reality, blinded their memories and came to the world of demons, and became the original residents of the world. But the contracts all have a specified time limit. Once the time limit is up, it is the end of their lifespan, and they will all die. In reality Wake up." Xu Jingming said secretly.

No matter who he is, even if he is a demon, he claims to have an undying obsession and is immortal.

But when the time comes, everyone must die.

After all, they are almost all planetary beings in reality, and their lifespan is limited, so they cannot stay in the world of demons forever.

"Uncle Seven, I don't know how long it will be before the deadline." Xu Jingming thought.

suddenly--

A man walked in at the door of the restaurant. He was fair-skinned and it was hard to tell whether he was male or female. He was dressed in white and walked to Xu Jingming's table with a smile.

"Brother Wu Ming, can I sit down?" the man in white said.

"It turns out to be Brother Mijia, please." Xu Jingming nodded and walked around various prefectures and counties in Chiyun Prefecture. He still had information about high-level demon-slayers in the prefecture, so he naturally recognized him.

The man in white glanced at Wu Qi, then smiled at Xu Jingming and said, "I have heard of Brother Wu Ming's name a long time ago, but Brother Wu Ming travels all over the country, and his whereabouts are unpredictable, so we have never had a chance to meet him. Until today, Brother Wu Ming finally came to the state City."

"Go wherever you want, we are all at home." Xu Jingming said, "Brother Mijia, are you looking for me for something?"

"The sect I belong to, the Holy Light Sect, is quite influential in Chiyun Prefecture. There are nine high-level demon slayers in the sect! I am here today to invite you, Brother Wu Ming, to join." Mi Jia, the man in white, said , "After joining, we can join forces to deal with the demon, and the hope of catching the demon will be greater."

"The devil is hard to catch." Xu Jingming nodded.

Disaster.

In the more than ten years since he came to the world of demon-busting, he has only encountered a demon once.

That demon was disguised as a concubine of a wealthy businessman, living a seemingly ordinary life. Xu Jingming couldn't tell even under her restrained aura. Xu Jingming was willing to help some ordinary people. When he traced a concubine, he traced the source - the concubine.

There was a confrontation between the two sides. Although Xu Jingming had the upper hand, he failed to win the concubine.

At this time, Zhang Ke, a high-level demon-slayer who came to express his bad intentions, took two companions and secretly attacked, hoping to seize the opportunity to take away the demon. Xu Jingming fought back angrily, but Tianmo took advantage of the grudge between the two waves of demon-slayers and seized the opportunity to escape.

"The demons each have their own powerful methods. It is difficult to find them, and even more difficult to kill them." Mijia smiled, "But if we work together, we can control them more."

"I appreciate the kindness. I haven't joined any force for so many years." Xu Jingming said, "I don't have such thoughts now."

Mi Jia said softly: "Let me tell you the news. In the past six months, eight high-level demon-slayers have been killed in the city."

"Oh?" Xu Jingming's expression changed slightly.

Even if there is a conflict between demon slayers, they rarely kill each other directly. Because they know very well that even if they kill him, they will have to create a new account!

100 million cosmic coins, maybe the seventh-level starry sky being is very distressed. But for a high-level demon-slayer at the eighth level...it's really not worth mentioning.

"Is it a demon?" Xu Jingming asked.

Mi Jia nodded and said: "We have also traced some information about the dead high-level demon-slayers. They did die in the hands of the demon."

Xu Jingming nodded. As long as he has contact information on the Virtual World Network, he can naturally inquire about the cause of death.

"The demons who took action are not the same one." Mi Jia said, "In other words, there is a force composed of demons that is killing high-level demon-slayers. At this time, it would be better for Brother Wu Ming to join the force. "

"Thank you Brother Mijia for the news. I will think about it carefully." Xu Jingming said that although he is not afraid of death, if he dies once, he will lose the magical weapon he has worked so hard to refine, and he will have to re-establish an account and practice again, which is also very difficult. trouble.

Mi Jia picked up the wine glass, toasted Xu Jingming, and then left.

Except for Xu Jingming and Uncle Qi, no one else in the restaurant noticed when he came in and left.

"Young Master." Wu Qi was a little worried, "From what this man said, there is a group of heavenly demons targeting high-level demon-slayers."

"It has always been the demon-slayers who have been chasing the demons. Now the demons have also counterattacked." Xu Jingming was quite looking forward to it. After all, he had not killed a single demon in more than ten years.

"Master, you have to be careful." Wu Qi was very worried, "After all, he is a demon."

******

In a quiet house.

Several people were entertaining an old man with gray hair.

"Ancient Sect Leader, this demon's strength is extraordinary. Lord Tomiya is also a ninth-level demon-slayer in the world of demon-busting. He fought head-on with the demon and was killed in less than ten moves." A young man said, "This demon is The strength is very terrifying, surpassing the normal ninth realm demon-slayers. We were still talking about it before, and we were afraid that we would be able to deal with it with full confidence only when Deyuan's life comes."

"The ancient sect master is fully confident when he comes."

"Tomiya can still block seven or eight moves in front of the demon, but in front of the ancient sect master, he may not be able to withstand even three moves."

These people are all touting.

Several of them are Ninth Realm demon-slayers, and they are also the most terrifying old guys in the entire Chiyun State. However, facing this ancient sect master, they all consider themselves far inferior to each other.

Because the gray-haired old man in front of him was so famous and his historical achievements were so terrifying, his self-created "Secret Technique of the Great Netherworld" was famous in the world of demon-slaying. With this secret method, he had no rivals in the world.

"I also heard about how powerful this demon is, so I came here from Yi Kingdom." The ancient sect leader said, "As long as we are within the city, I will definitely be able to detect it once the demon takes action."

"We have been looking for the demon, but when such a powerful demon is presented to us, we can't fight it." These people were a little sad.

After all, they are all demon-slayers in the Ninth Realm. Lord Tomiya can't block ten moves, and they can't afford to offend him either.

"There are indeed some extremely powerful demons among the demons, and their strength is higher than that of the demon-slayers in the ninth realm." The ancient sect leader was very calm. In the world of demon-slayers, he was invincible.

"By the way." The ancient sect master suddenly said, "I don't know, do you know a man named Wu Ming?"

"Wu Ming? Yes, of course I know him. In our Chiyun Prefecture, Wu Ming is quite famous." A woman smiled, "He is quite sympathetic to ordinary people, and he also stood up for a group of ordinary people, and another high-ranking official The demon warriors started fighting."

"I received news that Wu Ming just arrived in Zhoucheng three hours ago." The young man said.

"Oh?" Gu Sect Master's eyes lit up.

…

Xu Jingming and Wu Qi checked into an inn and rented one of the private courtyards. As night fell, Xu Jingming and Wu Qi had rested in their respective rooms.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Wu Qi put on her clothes and went to open the door in confusion.

Xu Jingming also sensed a huge and vast fluctuation of mana, and immediately walked to the yard and saw a strong old man with gray hair standing outside the door.

The look in his eyes is very aura and familiar.

"You are..." Xu Jingming was not sure.

"Gushan." The old man smiled.

"Senior Brother Gushan?" Xu Jingming was extremely surprised.

"Junior brother Wu Ming." Gushan smiled.

Wu Qi on the side was a little confused.

Xu Jingming simply explained: "Seventh Uncle, I am fortunate enough to be taught the secret method of subduing demons. In my sect, Senior Brother Gushan is the senior brother. I started at the latest and can be regarded as the youngest junior brother."

"Oh." Wu Qi understood and said happily, "Then I'll have someone prepare some food and wine."

"I'm sorry to trouble you, Uncle Qi." Xu Jingming said.

Wu Qi immediately ran out enthusiastically to find the waiter at the inn.

inside the house.

Xu Jingming and Gu Shan sat down at the wooden table, and Xu Jingming helped pour tea.

"I really didn't expect to meet senior brother here." Xu Jingming said happily, "I remember, senior brother, you are not in Qingguo."

"The sect I established is in Yi Country." Gushan explained with a smile, "But now my spiritual power index has reached 10,000, and I am preparing to break through the source of life."

"Finally reached 10,000? Congratulations, senior brother." Xu Jingming was also happy for his senior brother.

After all, the senior brothers are over a thousand years old.

"I have tried to break through in the Virtual World Network, and I succeeded eight times out of ten." Senior Brother Gushan shook his head, "Obviously, I need to be more prepared in all aspects. A friend happened to inform me that a terrifying demon appeared in Chiyun Prefecture of Qing Dynasty and took the initiative to attack. Killing the demon-slayer. The more powerful the demon is, the harder it is to find him. If I take the initiative to attack the demon-slayer, I just have to wait patiently... until he takes action."

"A demon with the ability to defeat a demon-slayer in the ninth level should be of some help to me." Gu Shan said, "If my spiritual power increases a little bit, I should be fully confident."

Xu Jingming can understand.

At the time of breakthrough, the body completely transforms into source power. Once it fails, it means that the body completely collapses and returns to source power, which is a complete death.

So you have to be absolutely sure.

"Senior brother, if you need my help if you need anything, just ask." Xu Jingming said.

"I know that you are coming to Chiyun Prefecture of Qingguo, and I happen to be here, so naturally I have to meet you. As for helping?" Senior Brother Gushan thought for a moment and said, "You should be more diligent in the prefecture and take the initiative to deal with the devil. Once you encounter the devil! The bigger the noise, the better. I can know it as soon as possible, which is the greatest help."

"Don't worry." Xu Jingming nodded, this little thing is not worth mentioning.

"This is the source of life." Senior Brother Gushan sighed, "It's really not easy."

"No matter what, senior brother will soon have a breakthrough. Junior brothers and sisters like us are still in the accumulation period." Xu Jingming said. He, who has a psychic power index of over 5,000, is still early to break through.

Senior Brother Gushan looked at Xu Jingming: "I can feel that your magic power has broken through to the seventh level. In reality, you should have reached the eighth level limit?"

"Yes." Xu Jingming nodded.

"It's only been eleven years since you joined the Yuanchu Research Institute, right? Eleven years ago, you were still in the seventh level." Senior Brother Gushan admired, "This rate of progress is amazing..."

"The eighth level limit is not worth mentioning." Xu Jingming said humbly. The geniuses at the Yuanchu Academy all reached the eighth level limit in a short time.

Senior brother Gushan looked outside and whispered: "There is something I have to remind you, junior brother."

"Remind me?" Xu Jingming was confused.

The two senior brothers talked in low voices.

The inn's waiter and Wu Qi also came in with wine and food.

"Master, and this senior brother, let's try the craftsmanship of this inn." Wu Qi also helped the waiter and put the food and drinks on the table.

"Uncle Qi, you go and rest first. I want to have a night talk with my senior brother Bingzhu." Xu Jingming said.

"Okay." Wu Qi then left with the waiter and closed the door together.

Xu Jingming looked at Senior Brother Gushan seriously: "Brother, are you sure what you said is true?"

"Absolutely sure." Gu Shan nodded.
