The Art of Nine Deaths

Dongyu, Gu family, in a small courtyard.

A young man was carrying a giant cauldron with his bare upper body on his shoulders and exercising his body.

Beside, two servants looked at him worriedly.

A servant whispered: “God is really unfair. Master Xichao works so hard every day, why is his body useless?” ”

Yes, it’s a pity, Master Xichao obviously works so hard.” Another servant looked full of regret. He looked at the young man who was carrying the cauldron.

The young man was Gu Xichao. When he and his sister Gu Xiruo were sent home by Gu Changsheng, Gu Xiruo was recognized as the Taiyin Holy Body at a glance, and even alerted a saint ancestor. He was valued by that ancestor and taught him personally. .

As Gu Xiruo’s brother, he naturally attracted much attention, but after many detailed tests by the Gu family, they finally determined that Gu Xichao was a waste body that could not absorb the vitality of heaven and earth.

For Gu Xiruo’s sake, the senior officials of the Gu family had not thought of changing Gu Xichao’s fate. They had initially tried to give Gu Xichao many miraculous medicines to change his physique, but after Gu Xichao took them, they had no effect.

In the end, they figured out a way to change their fate against the will of heaven, that is, the ancestor of the saint took action and risked divine punishment to change his fate for Gu Xichao, but this method was ultimately rejected.

Putting aside whether this can be successful or not, is it worth sacrificing a saint ancestor for a useless body?

The Gu family has consumed a huge amount of resources for Gu Xichao. Gu Xichao has already done his utmost to be benevolent and righteous, and there is no way he would sacrifice a saint ancestor just for an illusory opportunity.

But Gu Xichao never gave up on becoming stronger. Since he could not absorb the vitality of heaven and earth, he would temper his body. He promised his sister that he would protect her for the rest of his life. If he was too weak, how could he protect his sister?

So every day Gu Xichao would spend a lot of time carrying the cauldron and tempering his body.

“Boom!”

Gu Xichao threw the cauldron to the ground and made a heavy sound.

“Master, let’s take a rest first.” A servant advised.

Gu Xichao nodded and said, “You guys go down first, I’m going to have a rest.”

But the servant did not leave obediently.

Seeing this, Gu Xichao said helplessly: “I promise, I won’t practice secretly.”

Before, he almost died from exhaustion because of secretly exercising. Fortunately, someone happened to pass by his yard at that time, otherwise he would have died. Say goodbye to my sister.

And these two servants were placed by his side just to protect him. The Gu family treated him badly.

The two servants looked at each other and nodded.

“Then young master, you have a good rest. We will come back tomorrow.”

After saying that, the two of them left.

Gu Xichao sat for a long time. After confirming that the two of them had really left, he walked to the big cauldron and prepared to start carrying the cauldron to temper his body again.

Just when he was about to lift the cauldron, a voice suddenly sounded.

“If you continue to practice like this, even if you are given ten thousand years, you will not be able to compete with your sister’s ten years of practice.”

Gu Xichao was stunned, this voice was very familiar.

“Senior, is that you?” Gu Xichao asked.

“It’s me.” Gu Changsheng, wearing a green shirt, walked out with a wine bottle.

“Pfft!”

When Gu Xichao saw Gu Changsheng, he knelt down and kowtowed three times, breaking his forehead.

“Senior, please accept me as your disciple!”

“Oh?” Gu Changsheng showed a hint of surprise on his face and said with a smile, “How do you know I can help you?”

Gu Xichao said, “Although this junior doesn’t know how to practice these days, But I also know the status and power of our Gu family. If the senior can treat the Gu family as if there is no one around, he must be the legendary superpower. So Xichao begged the senior to accept me as his disciple. As long as I can practice and protect my sister, I will do it in the future. I am willing to be a cow and a horse.”

“You are very smart. I can really help you embark on the path of cultivation.” Gu Changsheng nodded. He had already seen that Gu Xichao was a waste body that could not cultivate, so he and Gu Xichao Looking back home, he also wanted to see the change in Gu Xichao’s temperament and whether the Gu family would abandon Gu Xichao.

For more than half a year, he has been looking at the Gu family from the corner of his eye. He is very satisfied with the actions of the Gu family and Gu Xichao.

I can only say that it is worthy of being a family founded by me, the Holy Emperor of the human race, and it is very humane.

When Gu Xichao heard that Gu Changsheng could help him embark on the path of cultivation, his face was indescribably excited.

But Gu Changsheng said: “But I can’t accept you as my disciple.”

“Boom!”

Gu Xichao’s heart felt like a bolt from the blue. This feeling of hope igniting and extinguishing made him feel desperate.

“Why are you so desperate?” Gu Changsheng slapped Gu Xichao on the forehead, causing him to fly away. A mouthful of blood spurted out, and then he fainted.

“Uh…”

“Forgot that this kid is not the traitor, his body is only a little stronger than ordinary people.” Gu Changsheng had a look of resentment on his face.

Gu Xichao fainted: My life is also my life!

Gu Changsheng woke Gu Xichao up. Gu Xichao looked at Gu Changsheng, his face full of resentment. If you don’t want to accept a disciple, you won’t accept a disciple. Why are you beating me?

Gu Changsheng said without blushing, “Do you know my last name?”

“I don’t know, junior.” Gu Xichao shook her head.

Gu Changsheng smiled and said: “Your last name comes from me.”

Gu Xichao was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly realized.

“Gu Xichao has met the ancestor.” Gu Xichao knelt down and kowtowed again. At the same time, he also understood why Gu Changsheng only gave him and his sister a token to enter the Gu family. It turned out that the senior was his ancestor.

“No, it should be called the ancestor.” Gu Changsheng corrected, there can be many ancestors, but there can only be two ancestors.

Gu Xichao was stunned and a little confused.

But Gu Changsheng did not explain. He said, “Get up. Don’t kneel down every now and then.”

Gu Xichao stood up obediently and stood respectfully in front of Gu Changsheng.

Gu Changsheng said softly: “Let me ask you, why are you practicing?”

“To protect my sister!” Gu Xichao said firmly.

“No more?” Gu Changsheng asked.

Hearing this, Gu Xichao pondered for a while, and then said, “Perhaps at some point in time, I will become the person who protects the tribe, but at least for now, I still want to protect my sister.” ”

Very good!” Gu Changsheng was very happy. Satisfied with Gu Xichao’s answer, if he said anything about being for the human race and for the peace of the universe, he would leave without saying a word, and even beat him to death.

But now Gu Xichao’s answer proves his Taoist heart, and his Taoist heart is still very strong. Although this kind of person can easily go to the other extreme, for example, if Gu Xiruo is harmed by others for some reason, then Gu Xichao is likely to turn dark.

But this won’t happen because I’m still alive.

“Now I’ll give you two choices.” Gu Changsheng raised two slender fingers.

“The first one is to change your fate against the will of heaven and change your physique so that you can cultivate smoothly.” “The

second one is to use yourself as the seed to open up the divine treasure in the human body. This one is more difficult than the first one. Countless times.”

“How do you choose?”

“Ancestor, which one is stronger?” Gu Xichao asked.

Gu Changsheng said: “The great road does not distinguish between strong and weak, but depends on the cultivator.”

Gu Xichao nodded understandingly, and then asked: “So, ancestor, has anyone walked the two roads together?”

“Yes!”

Gu Changsheng said.

“Then it was successful?”

“It was successful.”

“Who was it?”

“Me!”

“…”

Gu Xichao suddenly felt an inexplicable aura of pretentiousness filling the yard.

“I choose the second option!”

After thinking for a long time, Gu Xichao finally chose the second path to open up the physical body.

Gu Xichao was very smart. He knew that the ancestor would not give him two choices for no reason. It was obvious that the ancestor wanted him to choose the second path.

Unexpectedly, Gu Changsheng looked disappointed.

“I thought you would choose both.”

“…”

Since Gu Xichao chose the second path, Gu Changsheng began to explain to Gu Xichao how to take this path.

Gu Xichao also looked at Gu Changsheng seriously, waiting for his teachings.

But Gu Changsheng said: “You are the third person to choose this path.”

“Who is the second one?” Gu Xichao asked. He naturally knew that the first one was the ancestor, so he asked the second one.

“Gu Sheng!” Gu Changsheng said.

“Gu Sheng?” Gu Xichao seemed to have heard this name somewhere, but couldn’t remember who it was.

“My son.” Gu Changsheng smiled.

“I see.” Gu Xichao thought that Gu Shengshi was the name of an ancestor. After all, everyone in the world only knew the ancient emperor’s surname was Gu, but did not know his real name. Who dared to call an emperor by his real name?

“Sit down and I’ll teach you how to practice!” Gu Changsheng said.

Gu Xichao sat cross-legged obediently, then held her breath and concentrated, waiting for Gu Changsheng to teach the Dharma.

Gu Changsheng tapped Gu Xichao’s forehead and taught Gu Xichao a different training technique.

Gu Xichao’s face changed slightly, and soon, sweat broke out on his forehead. He was receiving a lot of information, and for a moment he felt dizzy and almost fainted, but in the end he persisted with his strong willpower.

A quarter of an hour later, Gu Xichao woke up slowly, his eyes filled with disbelief.

“There is actually such a technique that requires death to be perfected.” Gu Xichao muttered.

The skill passed down to him by Gu Changsheng is called “Nine Deaths”. As the name suggests, you have to die nine times to achieve great success.

“Ancestor, how many times have you died?” Gu Xichao asked.

“Pa” Gu Changsheng slapped Gu Xichao on the head. This time he controlled the force.

“I haven’t died even once.”

“Then how did you achieve greatness in cultivation?” Gu Xichao asked weakly.

“Who told you that I have reached great success in cultivation?” Gu Changsheng asked, what is this kid thinking?

Although he created the “Nine Death Art”, he has not even succeeded in the first level, because he has been pushing the enemy all the way, and no one can kill him. Until now, he has not met anyone who can. The one who killed him.

Therefore, his “Nine Deaths” were never completed.

“I don’t know how many times that kid Gu Sheng has died.” Gu Changsheng muttered.

After hearing this, Gu Xichao had a look of regret on his face and said, “Ancestor, can I change my path?”

At this moment, Gu Xichao suddenly felt that he was Gu Changsheng’s experimental subject, and he finally understood this. Why is one road so many times more difficult than the other? How could it not be difficult if it kills people?

“What do you think?” Gu Changsheng looked at Gu Xichao with a smile.

“Practice well and look forward to your future.”

Gu Changsheng patted Gu Xichao’s shoulder, left a bottle of elixir, and left.

Gu Xichao held the unknown elixir left by Gu Changsheng, her eyes gradually becoming firm.

“Just die, it’s better than not being able to protect your sister!”

So, Gu Xichao practiced according to the “Nine Deaths Heavenly Skill”.

The first thing to do is to cut open his heart with a knife, put the elixir left by Gu Changsheng into the heart, and use the powerful medicine to open the first divine treasure in the human body, the divine treasure in the heart!
