Chapter 121: One Person Conquers the World!
Shangguan Yu floated in mid-air, and he took another look at Qin Shou. Hou Yi seemed to be waiting for him as well, without any other movements. As for Jiaolong, he couldn't wait for Shangguan Yu to leave. Facing Shangguan Yu, he always felt like Shangguan Yu's father was staring at him.
"Senior, I'm ready. Send me off now. This is just a temporary farewell, we can meet again in a few years. There's no banquet that doesn't disperse, nothing to be melancholy about." said Yu Fei with ease.
"Well said. The world has no banquet that doesn't disperse, and you're indeed his descendant. Now I'll send you off, and take you directly to the top of the cliff."
Hou Yi stretched out his hands once again, and endless light enveloped Shangguan Yu. Shangguan Yu unconsciously closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the scenery around him had already changed greatly.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Shangguan Yu seemed to have just woken up from a dream. In the unfathomable depths below, there was a deep pool. Inside the pool was a several hundred meters long dragon that had once tried to kill him. Underneath the pool was a luxurious Dragon Palace, where he found a transmission point in the hall. Even more unbelievable was that he actually saw Hou Yi there, although it was just a wisp of residual soul, but thinking back now, it really was like a fantasy tale.
"Roar!"
Shangguan Yu suddenly turned around, throwing all his previous thoughts to the back of his mind. In front of him, there were still two black tigers. Fortunately, the group of black tigers was no longer there, otherwise Shangguan Yu would have had to jump off another cliff again.
Two black tigers looked at Shangguan Yu in horror, they had clearly seen Shangguan Yu and the other two jump down earlier. It was precisely because of this that Hei Sha led a group of black tigers to leave this place. However, as Hei Sha left, he let the two black tigers stay here.
As for Hei Sha's arrangement, the two black tigers also had no objection. Firstly, Hei Sha was the young master of the Hei Sha clan and would be the future leader. Secondly, Shangguan Yu and his three companions had already jumped off the cliff, which was so deep that nobody knew its depth. In the hearts of the two black tigers, Shangguan Yu and his three companions must have died from the fall long ago.
The two black tigers were just wandering around with a bored attitude, who knew that just now, Shangguan Yu suddenly descended from the sky. This scene was really too surprising, no, it was too surprising for the tiger.
If Shangguan Yuexin had such skills, then the two tigers would have died directly. However, if Shangguan Yuexin had such skills, he wouldn't have been forced to jump off a cliff by a group of black tigers earlier. The two black tigers thought that everything before was just an illusion.
"Heh heh, this is great! Just as I arrived, there are two appetizers. Previously, the battle with Jiao Long below was really suffocating, and our strengths were fundamentally not comparable. Now that I've encountered two Black Tigers, it's perfect!"
"Come on, tiger cubs!"
Shangguan Yu directly grasped the You Long spear in his hand, holding it with his right hand and stretching it out straight. With a loud roar, he charged forward towards the two black tigers.
The two black tigers also let out a loud roar and charged forward. Seeing Xiang Yu rushing over, the two black tigers also rushed forward. The two black tigers opened their bloody mouths wide, ready to pounce on Xiang Yu from both left and right sides.
"Good timing! The hidden dragon emerges from the depths!"
The golden dragon burst out, and its momentum was even stronger. In the terrified eyes of the black tiger on the left, the golden dragon drew a majestic arc, passing directly through its waist.
Shangguan Yu also moved to the left side of the black tiger, and he suddenly jumped up, jumping over the body of the black tiger. On the right side of the black tiger, he grasped the head of the You Long spear with both hands. With a fierce pull, the You Long spear directly pierced out from the body of the black tiger.
"Dragon's Tail Sweep!"
The Dragon Gun flipped over in Shangguan Yu's hands, as if the golden dragon's tail had swished once. The black tiger on the right saw the one on the left being stabbed to death and was about to react, but it didn't have time.
When the black tiger on the left fell, the golden dragon roared and pierced through the waist of the other black tiger on the right. Shangguan Yu drew out his Dragon Slayer Spear and casually wiped it clean on the black tiger's body.
Although the Dragon Gun can absorb fresh blood, Shangguan Yu was not very clear. When the Dragon Gun was almost wiped clean, the old tiger on the right also fell down directly. It's that simple, both black tigers died.
"It seems that the two battles below also made me progress a lot. Battles are indeed the best way to temper oneself, and from now on, I'll have to rely solely on myself for all future battles."
"It's not that, isn't it? Isn't there still me to help you? Now that everyone else is gone, I want to play outside for a while longer. Little Yu, what do you say?" Xiaogui looked at Shangguan Yu with an expectant gaze, her expression as pitiful as possible.
If it were someone else, they might have been deceived by Xiao Gui's appearance, but those people did not include Shangguan Yu. "Alright, stop pretending. You like sleeping so much, where do you usually come up with this? Playing outside is fun, but isn't sleep more important than that for you? According to your words, sleep is cultivation, and cultivation is the most important thing, right?"
Listening to Shangguan Yu's teasing, Xiaogui also didn't refute. Xiaogui directly lay on Shangguan Yu's shoulder and wouldn't run if it didn't want to. Lying on Shangguan Yu's shoulder, basking in the sun, swaying gently, Xiaogui felt very comfortable.
Shangguan Yu's mouth slightly curled up, originally being alone was quite boring. However, with Xiaogui by his side, it seemed that the journey wouldn't be dull after all. This was probably Shangguan Yu's first time taking action alone, and he couldn't help but feel a bit lonely.
The initial trial was with him, Qin Shou and Li Ruolan, the three of them together, that time was to go to Tongling Mountain to compete for the Tongling fruit. Later, they went to Zhenwu Gate, and even had Jiu Lao leading the team, with him, Qin Shou, Li Ruolan, Xiang Tianlang, and the already deceased Shangguan Jiancheng in the team.
This time, he came out to capture Wuhen Gongzi, originally it was him and Qin Shou as well as Zhu Shoucheng three people acting together. Who would have thought, Zhu Shoucheng turned out to be an spy sent by Shangguan Po Cheng. Later on, he was preparing to act with Qin Shou, who knew that Qin Shou had accepted Hou Yi's legacy again. Now the others are all gone, only he is left alone.
Luckily, there was still Xiao Guizi accompanying him. Although Xiao Guizi often slept, he could occasionally accompany him and chat with him. Shangguan Yu shook his head, "What am I thinking? The path of the strong is originally a lonely one. It seems my state of mind is not enough."
He took out the rolled-up sleeve, and Shangguan Yu spread it open. Now no one could guide him, he had to study the map himself. The map was still quite clear, otherwise Shangguan Yu would have definitely gotten lost.
From the cliff, Shangguan Yu walked back along the way he came. Since they had already strayed from the path, it was necessary to return to the original place and re-walk in the correct direction. Shangguan Yu's memory was very good, and he completely remembered the road he had taken before.
"That's right, in this direction. Look at the distance on this map compared to the actual distance. Alas, it's such a long way, I reckon I won't be able to get out of this death zone for several months."
As for going back and forth, walking to other places, Shangguan Yu was not prepared to do so. To put it simply, the challenging death zone was what Shangguan Yu liked. Anyway, being on the outermost periphery of the death zone, he shouldn't encounter too many powerful demon tribes.
If he really encountered it, he could only blame his own bad luck. However, it was this kind of stimulation that made Shangguan Yu even more yearn for it. Wandering between life and death, the realm of martial arts would be promoted the fastest. If you want to rely on hard practice to upgrade, I don't know when you can reach the self-preservation realm that Emperor Yin said.
Of course, Shangguan Yu would not give up on his arduous training. After all, without the usual hard work, it would be impossible to break through even in life-and-death situations. Now that he had the Tianyuan Pearl, his cultivation was progressing even faster.
In the dark of night, a Tianyuan Pearl was placed in front of Shangguan Yu. The Tianyuan Pearl emitted a milky white glow, which seemed to form a whirlpool that slowly absorbed the surrounding heavenly energy.
If you look closely, you will find that there are strands of milky white light connecting to Shangguan Yu's body. It is these milky white lights that carry the heavenly and earthly primordial energy, surging into Shangguan Yu's body.
After the heavenly energy surged into Shangguan Yu's body, it was quickly refined into yuanqi. However, most of this yuanqi filled his arms, with even more pouring into his torso.
The night passed like this, Shangguan Yu first cultivated his yuanqi, then cultivated his perception. Time flew by like water, and he felt more and more that this sentence was very reasonable. Especially the time spent cultivating, it had unknowingly slipped away.
Feeling the yuanqi in his body increase again, Shangguan Yu continued to move forward. From the time he left Zhenwu Gate until now, a considerable amount of time had passed. He didn't know if the trial of Zhenwu Gate had ended or not, and he was still far away from the Xiangdang Mountain Range.
Walking in the mountain forest, Shangguan Yu felt a refreshing breath, as if his whole body had become lighter. The air quality of the Tianxuan Continent was much better than that of Earth, and this was still the mountain forest of the Tianxuan Continent, which was even more incomparable.
"Rustle rustle rustle..."
Shangguan Yu's ears moved, and he heard a strange sound. He stopped in his tracks, his eyes fixed on the front. He clearly heard something coming over, "What is it? Is it a demon beast? Have I just come out and encountered a demon beast again?"
A gigantic spider stood in front of Shangguan Yu, this spider was a head taller than Shangguan Yu. Eight powerful legs stepped on the ground, slowly moving towards Shangguan Yu. Strangely, this spider was white all over its body.
"My god, isn't this an ice spider? How can I run into something like this?"
