Chapter 526: Gu He Is in Seclusion!

This time, Gu He's goal of retreat was to use the more than 100 years of cultivation returned by Zi Yan and the more than 20 years of cultivation returned by Liu Ling and Qing Lin to break through the advanced semi-saint in one fell swoop and impact the realm of the real Dou Sheng.

When he came to the valley, Gu He first found a huge bluestone slab. After sitting cross-legged, he directly absorbed the weak cultivation returned by Qing Lin.

Gu He absorbed all the cultivation returned by Qing Lin in just half a day.

Next, Gu He did not stop and continued to extract the 22 years of cultivation returned by Liu Ling into his body.

Now the Dou Qi in Gu He's body has been condensed and compressed nine times and has become extremely thick. For Gu He, absorbing the 22 years of cultivation returned by Liu Ling did not feel any pressure, and everything was carried out very easily.

It took about seven days for Gu He to finally refine all the 22 years of cultivation and absorb it into his body.

At this time, Gu He's cultivation had reached the peak state of a high-level semi-saint. It can be said that he was only one step away from becoming a true one-star Dou Sheng.

"System, extract the 123 years of cultivation returned by Zi Yan!"

As Gu He's heart rang with a low voice, a huge ball of purple light suddenly burst into Gu He's body in the system space.

Bang!

As the bright purple light shot into Gu He's body, the next moment, Gu He felt a muffled sound in his body, and then a huge amount of energy surged out of his body.

This energy was extremely overbearing, surging out of Gu He's body, like a tornado, sweeping towards Gu He's limbs and bones.

However, Gu He, now under the quenching of his body by his natal divine fire, has become so strong in his body, whether it is bones, flesh, blood, or the seemingly fragile meridians, that he has become so powerful that even if this energy surges, it cannot pose any substantial threat to Gu He's body.

When this huge energy was raging in his body, Gu He summoned his life-defining divine fire at the first time. His soul wrapped in the life-defining divine fire and wandered in the meridians, quickly wrapping a part of the energy and refining it into gentle energy that could be directly absorbed by the body.

Although Gu He's refining speed was very fast, the total amount of refining this time was the cultivation of 123 years after reaching the advanced semi-saint. Gu He initially estimated that it would take nearly a month.

…

Shimo City, the northwest border of the Jiama Empire.

After several days of continuous travel, Liu Ling finally arrived at the edge of the Tagor Desert.

In the northwest border of the Jiama Empire, the most powerful force now is the Big Brother Mercenary Group. Its power has affected more than a dozen cities on the border. Almost all the mercenaries distributed in the Warcraft Mountains within a thousand miles are members of the Big Brother Mercenary Group.

However, no matter how fast and how large the Big Brother Mercenary Group develops, its headquarters is still located in this slightly barren desert edge city.

Liu Ling came to Shimo City this time, but did not stay there. Instead, he went directly over Shimo City and continued to walk towards the depths of the desert.

…

Above the clear sky, the huge scorching sun hung high in the sky, like a big fireball that constantly released flames. The scorching sun was sprinkled in the golden desert, and the tiny sand grains were smoked like red-hot iron grains.

In the desert, due to the scorching temperature, wisps of hot air permeated from the yellow sand, and finally evaporated the space into a somewhat distorted and illusory state.

In the Tagor Desert, in addition to some magical beasts hidden in the sand layer, we also need to pay attention to the snake people living in the desert.

Since the snake people invaded the human city two years ago, the people of the Jiama Empire on the border have witnessed the power of the snake people. Although the snake people tribe retreated for some reasons after that, no one underestimated them.

In addition, the largest mercenary group on the border of the empire, the Big Brother Mercenary Group, announced a group rule that no mercenary is allowed to enter the desert to hunt and sell female snake people. Therefore, no human dared to venture into the depths of this desert for a long time.

At this moment, in this hot environment, a tall figure in a blue robe was actually walking directly in the extremely high sky.

This tall figure was Liu Ling who went deep into the desert to find Yue Mei.

With Liu Ling's cultivation, if he didn't want these ordinary snake people to find him entering the desert, no one would be able to find him.

Liu Ling in the sky had a map in his hand. On this map, eight red dots were marked in the depths of the desert, representing the eight tribes of the snake people.

Liu Ling's finger stopped at a red dot in the outermost area, and murmured: "This red dot should be the Mei Snake Tribe where Yue Mei is!"

After confirming the direction, Liu Ling set off again and headed towards the red dot on the map.

Although Liu Ling was flying in the sky, because of his extremely strong soul power, many movements on the sand surface could not escape his detection.

After flying for half an hour, Liu Ling's soul sensed that there were many signs of life in front of him. Seeing this, Liu Ling smiled and slowed down a bit. Soon, at the end of his sight, a city wall that looked ancient and tall appeared.

On the city wall, there were more than a dozen slender snake women standing still with cold faces, their sharp eyes constantly sweeping over the sand outside the wall.

Perhaps because of the desert environment, these snake women had dark skin and slightly beautiful looks, coupled with the strange diamond-shaped pupils, which looked faintly charming. Moreover, the most talked-about thing about snake people was their seductive waists like water snakes. In the human world, whenever there were snake slave women performing exotic dances, it was not uncommon for the men watching around to stand up straight and look ashamed if they did not have strong self-control.

Of course, Liu Ling, who came here, naturally had no interest in appreciating the seductive waists of these beautiful snake women. He wrapped himself with soul power, concealed his aura, and flew directly over the sky above the city wall.

In Liu Ling's memory, Yue Mei was the leader of the Mei Snake Tribe, and her cultivation had reached the level of a high-level Dou Wang. However, Liu Ling had been searching in the Mei Snake Tribe for a long time, but had not been able to sense the aura of a Dou Wang powerhouse.
