In Emei, start by obtaining golden attributes.

Chapter 210 Suddenly I feel like going back to the Heavenly Prison

Gu Santong looked at Gu Shaoan with a puzzled expression: "Testing moves? What moves are you testing?"

Gu Shaoan smiled and said, "Last year, I created a martial art, but at that time I was facing Zhang Zhenren of Wudang, so it was difficult to unleash the power of the martial art. Senior, you are the same as Pang Ban of the Demon Master Palace, and you are also at the Condensing Yuan to Form Gang realm. In comparison, fighting with you will allow me to directly understand the power of my swordsmanship."

"The martial art you created?"

Upon hearing what Gu Shaoan said, Gu Santong, who had just been full of curiosity, rolled his eyes, appearing somewhat dismissive.

Seeing Gu Santong's expression, Gu Shaoan chuckled inwardly but didn't offer any further explanation.

After turning around and walking out of the pavilion, he used his lightness skill to return to the courtyard, picked up the Heaven-Slaying Sword, and returned to the cliffside behind the mountain.

Once Gu Shaoan had stood still, Gu Santong leaped up and in the blink of an eye rushed from the pavilion to the opposite side of Gu Shaoan, standing three zhang apart.

Yang Yan, who was standing at the entrance of Abbess Miejue's courtyard, noticed the situation of the two and quickly turned around and called out.

"Master, Uncle, Senior Brother and the person who came are sparring."

As soon as she finished speaking, the head of the Abbess of Insulation immediately sprang out from inside the courtyard gate.

Next came the heads of Yang Yan, Zhou Zhiruo, and Mei Jiangxue.

Seeing the four people peeking out of the doorway, Abbess Miejue said irritably, "This is Emei. If you want to see something, just look openly. Why are you sneaking around?"

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the nun and the others realized what was happening.

The nun, who had just lifted one foot, casually and imperceptibly retracted it.

Only after Abbess Miejue started walking outside did he follow.

Noticing that Su Xin had already gotten up, Gu Shaoan spoke as he circulated his true energy, "Strength has no eyes. For safety's sake, it would be best if Miss Su Xin stayed in the pavilion."

Gu Santong felt looked down upon upon hearing Gu Shaoan's words.

"Kid, that's a bit of an insult! I'm at the Condensing Yuan Qi Realm, do you really think I can hurt Su Xin in front of me?"

Gu Shaoan glanced at Gu Santong sideways and then said, "You'll find out soon enough, senior."

"Ok?"

Gu Santong narrowed his eyes slightly and raised his chin slightly.

“Interesting, kid. You seem quite confident! Very well, I’d like to see what gives you the audacity to even mess with a guy like Zhu Tiedan.”

As he spoke, Gu Santong said, "Should I also suppress my internal energy to the level of Qi Condensation and Yuan Formation?"

Gu Shaoan shook his head and said, "Since this is a test of strength, you need to go all out, senior. If you suppress your strength, I'm afraid you won't even be able to withstand a single move from me."

The ancient three-way passage can be said to have been in a gap of more than 20 years.

Although he possesses the internal energy realm of condensing primordial energy into a powerful force and martial arts such as the "Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill".

Strictly speaking, among those who have reached the level of Condensing Yuan Qi into Gang Qi, Gu Santong is not even among the strongest.

It's at most a mid-range level.

If Gu Shaoan needs to hold back against Gu Santong right now, what will he do when he fights Pang Ban later?
If you see Pang Ban, just admit defeat.

If it were anyone else, hearing Gu Shaoan say this, they might think that Gu Shaoan was too arrogant.

But Gu Santong's eyes lit up when he heard Gu Shaoan's words, and he couldn't help but touch his chin: "Hey! This arrogant feeling has the flavor of my youth."

Seeing this, Gu Shaoan said no more, planted the Yitian Sword in the ground, said "Be careful, senior" to Gu Santong, and took a step forward.

In the next instant, Gu Shaoan's true form suddenly swung its tail like a dragon in the clouds, tearing through the air and closing in to within a foot of Gu Santong.

The spot where Gu Shaoan had just stood was now left with a rapidly blurring shadow.

The moment he approached Gu Santong, Gu Shaoan's incomparably powerful true energy erupted.

As his palm struck out, it instantly condensed into a nearly tangible, golden, giant dragon-shaped energy that roared and circled around Gu Shaoan's arm.

"hold head high!"

The moment the energy condensed and the palm force tore through the air, a dragon's roar, seemingly from the highest heavens, suddenly exploded without warning.

The opening move is "The Dragon Regrets" from the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms.

With a single palm strike, Gu Shaoan's concentrated palm power compressed the air, causing it to explode and scatter the rubble on the ground.

"This is... the Beggars' Sect's 'Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms'? How does this kid, an Emei Sect disciple, know the 'Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms'?"

Gu Santong's pupils suddenly shrank to pinpoints, his mind racing, and a sense of astonishment rose in his heart.

Although he was taken aback, Gu Santong felt the strong wind rushing towards him and instantly activated the true energy in his body. He spread his five fingers slightly, and the edge of his palm faintly showed a diamond-like luster. He pushed out his palm without any fancy moves to meet the palm that Gu Shaoan was hitting.

The next second, their two palms were firmly pressed together.

"boom!"

The earth-shattering explosion was even louder than thunder, and a terrifying shockwave suddenly rippled outwards from the two people in the center.

Wherever the blast wave passed, the rock on the ground, as hard as iron, was shattered inch by inch, as if it had been smashed by an invisible giant hammer. The flying dust was instantly torn to dust by the violent airflow!

At the very moment their palms touched, Gu Santong suddenly felt a concentrated and powerful force, as strong as a mountain, surge through Gu Shaoan's hand.

"This feeling, effortless yet weightless? Are you kidding me? This kid actually mastered this kind of technique?"

With his years of martial arts experience, Gu Santong naturally knew the special techniques of "lifting heavy objects as if they were light" and "lifting light objects as if they were heavy."

It was precisely because he knew this that Gu Santong understood the profoundness of this technique.

Even he, after decades of practice, like Sun Baifa, has only just managed to reach the level of "effortless mastery" in his power generation skills.

Who would have thought that Gu Shaoan, so young, had already reached the level of "making light work seem heavy" in terms of skill.

"Huh? No!"

However, before Gu Santong could think further, his expression suddenly changed.

The moment the force condensed within Gu Shaoan's palm exploded and entered his body, Gu Santong discovered that his palm power and strength were directly dispersed by the force of Gu Shaoan's palm.

The residual force that rushed into his body did not dissipate the moment it touched his internal energy.

Instead, it ruthlessly shattered his meager internal energy, then unleashed a torrent of power, forcefully rushing through his palm, wrist, and forearm before being annihilated by the internal energy within Gu Santong's body.

Despite the blow, Gu Santong was not injured in any way.

But that's enough to let the ancient three passages appreciate their uniqueness.

Because of the special golden element nurtured in the "Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill".

Although Gu Santong's body looked only slightly stronger than that of an average person.

But in reality, Gu Santong's body had already become as hard as steel due to the tempering of gold and silver over the decades.

His strength also far exceeds that of ordinary people.

Even without deliberately using his own internal energy and martial arts, a single palm strike could shatter a hard boulder two or three zhang high.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them humanoid beasts.

Gu Santong was astonished to discover that the strength Gu Shaoan was unleashing was not much weaker than his own.

Based on Gu Santong's understanding of the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, Gu Shaoan, who had only been practicing the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill for less than a year, could not possibly have reached such a terrifying level of strength.

The only explanation is that Gu Shaoan's own strength had already reached an extremely terrifying level before he practiced the "Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill".

"You little brat, what did you eat to grow up like this? Is this the strength a normal person should have?"

In response to Gu Santong's question, Gu Shaoan replied irritably, "Senior talks too much nonsense."

As he spoke, Gu Shaoan twisted his right wrist and unleashed the "Shocking Hundred Miles" technique with a single palm strike.

"hold head high--"

A terrifying dragon's roar resounded from within Gu Shaoan's body.

A surge of powerful true energy and unique palm force poured out from Gu Shaoan's palm like a tidal wave, and a dragon-shaped energy shaped like a ten-foot-long dragon immediately swirled and moved around Gu Shaoan's palm.

This is different from the "the dragon soars too high and regrets it" that just happened.

Gu Shaoan's move "Shocking the Hundred Miles" should have been equally fierce and unparalleled, but in Gu Shaoan's hands, it had an added touch of willow catkins in the wind, an ethereal and otherworldly quality.

The reputation of the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, along with the terrifying power and "effortless" technique that Gu Shaoan displayed during their earlier exchange, made Gu Santong no longer underestimate Gu Shaoan as he had initially thought.

Seeing Gu Shaoan strike him with the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms again, Gu Santong quickly clenched his fist and threw a simple, direct punch at Gu Shaoan's palm.

The action just now had made Gu Santong realize that Gu Shaoan was extraordinary.

Therefore, when Gu Santong made his move this time, he not only circulated his internal energy but also mobilized the special energy condensed by the "Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill" within his body.

However, just as Gu Santong's punch was about to land on Gu Shaoan's palm, Gu Shaoan's powerful palm suddenly spun around in a nimble and ingenious manner, like a gazelle leaping over a cliff.

After making Gu Santong's fist almost brush against the back of his hand, the palm strike not only didn't decrease but increased, continuing to slap towards Gu Santong's right shoulder.

Seemingly surprised that Gu Shaoan's powerful palm strike could have such agile variations in an instant, Gu Santong's eyes flashed. "Interesting! He actually incorporated the light and agile 'momentum' of other martial arts into this powerful palm technique, thus making the powerful palm technique of the 'Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms' also agile. That's quite clever."

After chuckling to himself, Gu Santong neither dodged nor evaded. Instead, his powerful and unparalleled Vajra Qi erupted like a torrent, and he deliberately rammed his right shoulder into Gu Shaoan.

Seeing that his palm would brush past Gu Santong's shoulder in the next second, Gu Shaoan's eyes narrowed slightly, and his right palm immediately pressed down and struck Gu Santong's shoulder.

The moment their palms and shoulders collided, the dull thud sounded like a giant drum, as two forces representing the ultimate levels of different martial arts clashed violently within a small space.

"boom"

Another wave of energy erupted, but this time, the moment Gu Shaoan's palm landed on Gu Santong's shoulder, the originally hard rock on the ground instantly cracked in a spiderweb pattern, centered on Gu Santong.

Immediately afterwards, the ground within a radius of ten feet collapsed violently, and the rubble and dust were pressed into the ground as if by an invisible giant hand, forming a huge depression half a foot deep.

The terrifying shockwave caused their clothes to billow wildly.

But the moment Gu Shaoan's palm landed on Gu Santong's shoulder, Gu Shaoan once again felt as if he had struck a thick piece of refined iron.

The powerful palm strike and force were instantly dissipated by the internal energy and energy hidden beneath Gu Santong's body.

In contrast, Gu Santong, after enduring Gu Shaoan's palm strike, still showed no signs of slowing down, his shoulder continuing to ram into Gu Shaoan's chest.

Before Gu Santong's shoulder could make solid contact with Gu Shaoan, Gu Shaoan used the force that surged back from Gu Santong taking his palm strike to float lightly backward.

The person was like a feather or a paper doll with no weight at all.

"This kid has a quick mind."

After muttering to himself, Gu Santong circulated his true energy, swung his right hand backhand, and swung his fist like a sledgehammer toward Gu Shaoan's abdomen.

However, when faced with Gu Santong's attack, Gu Shaoan's body swayed back lightly, like a paper doll being blown by the wind.

But the instant Gu Shaoan's body was airborne, Gu Santong's fist came flying again.

It was still nothing fancy, just the simplest and most primitive straight punch.

But when the fist strikes through the air, it produces a dull whistling sound.

Gu Shaoan accelerated the circulation of his internal energy, rotated his wrist, and pressed down with one palm.

See the dragon in the field.

hold head high!
A high-pitched dragon's roar echoed throughout the back mountain.

Three massive, dragon-shaped strands of energy, as refined as cast gold and intertwined in protective embrace, rapidly coalesced and circled around Gu Shaoan.

A powerful surge of energy rapidly enveloped Gu Shaoan's body.

Gu Santong suddenly felt as if his fist had fallen directly into a quagmire, and the fist power and internal energy contained in the punch were rapidly drawn away.

After half of the force and energy in Gu Santong's punch had been dissipated, Gu Shaoan's hand was already striking towards Gu Santong.

In a full quarter of an hour, the two had exchanged blows dozens of times.

Throughout the entire process, Gu Shaoan did not fall behind.

The fierce and domineering power of the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, combined with Gu Shaoan's terrifying strength and the skill of "making light work seem heavy," made Gu Santong's eyes shine brighter as he fought.

Moreover, Gu Santong discovered that Gu Shaoan's movement technique was quite peculiar.

Their movements and transitions are not bound by form; while seemingly ethereal and unpredictable, they are also as swift as thunder.

A few breaths later, seeing that Gu Shaoan had neutralized his attack once again, Gu Santong suddenly chuckled.

"Kid, do you really think that just because you've mastered the technique of 'making light of things seem heavy,' I can't do anything to you?"

His voice suddenly rose, booming like a bell, "Let me show you what it means to have profound understanding of martial arts intent, the realm of martial arts!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Santong's fist slammed towards Gu Shaoan, and a heavy, viscous, and terrifying force field, almost tangible, suddenly spread out from Gu Santong's center.

Suddenly, Gu Shaoan felt as if he had fallen into a special zone.

It's as obvious as someone suddenly stepping from a clear, sunny environment into a region with continuous rain.

An invisible pressure began to surge in from all directions, and the air and wind became heavy.

A strange sense of pressure even arose in my heart, making me unconsciously tense up my muscles.

Moreover, the feeling that Gu Santong gives people has also changed.

Domineering, heavy.

It even gives people the illusion that it is indestructible.

If it were someone else, they might not understand what was going on in the face of this sudden change.

Gu Shaoan himself had mastered the "Immortal Touching the Top" technique of the Golden Top Cotton Palm to the level of "Domain".

The reason why this special change occurred is clearly because Gu Santong radiated his fist power and intent to the surrounding area.

In other words.

Gu Santong, standing before them, had also elevated one of his martial arts techniques to the "Domain" level.

"I knew it wouldn't be that simple."

It should be noted that Gu Santong on the other side was no unknown figure.

More than twenty years ago, even if Zhu Wushi had absorbed the internal energy of 108 Qi Condensation Realm experts, he could only barely fight Gu Santong to a draw. One can imagine how strong Gu Santong was.

Such a person could never rely solely on the "Invincible Vajra Divine Skill" to commit crimes.

It is only natural that one's martial arts can reach the level of "domain".

After Gu Santong's true intent was transformed into a domain, his punch seemed to have gained an extra domineering and unparalleled aura of self-sufficiency.

Just then, a beautiful smile slowly curved the corners of Gu Shaoan's lips.

The next moment, Gu Shaoan raised his right hand, made a fist, and threw a punch.

Unlike Gu Santong's domineering punch, this one was extremely elegant, graceful, and agile as the wind from the punch cut through the air, as if an immortal were looking down at the mortal world, without the slightest hint of worldly affairs.

The true meaning of "the immortal touching the head" in "Golden Top Cotton Palm" is revealed.

Fists collide.

There was no earth-shattering sound as expected, nor any wildly dissipating air currents.

But in the next second, the ground within a five-zhang radius of Gu Santong and Gu Shaoan suddenly collapsed by three inches.

Some of the originally scattered wild grasses quietly disappeared, turning into dust and vanishing without a trace.

Feeling the invisible energy that Gu Shaoan had gathered around him, Gu Santong's eyes widened in shock.

"Your martial arts have actually reached the level of 'True Intent Domain'."

Gu Shaoan chuckled and said, "I'm sorry to have made you laugh, senior."

"Sigh~"

Seeing Gu Shaoan's smile, Gu Santong gasped.

At this moment, Gu Santong was truly astonished.

At the tender age of twenty, he condensed his vital energy into a primordial essence, possessing immense strength, making light work seem heavy, and his true intent transformed the realm.

If you look at each one individually, you wouldn't see anything wrong with Gu Santong.

But when all these factors are combined in one person, the flavor completely changes.

"What the hell is this joke?"

Gu Santong had considered that Gu Shaoan's strength was extraordinary, given that he could make Zhu Tiedan suffer a setback.

Even though Gu Santong tried his best to think of Gu Shaoan in a more positive light, he didn't dare to think in these directions.

Gu Santong acknowledged the power of handling light objects with great force and the strength of a thousand pounds.

But things like the True Meaning Domain, are they something a normal twenty-year-old could master?

After a moment of contemplation, Gu Santong turned to Abbess Miejue and asked with a hint of expectation, "May I ask, Abbess, is your disciple really just over twenty years old?"

Seeing Gu Santong's expression, Abbess Miejue nodded with a smile and said, "Not bad!"

"Oh!"

Hearing Abbess Miejue's reply, Gu Santong's lips curled into a smile, but the light in his eyes suddenly disappeared.

She turned her head back, looked at Gu Shaoan in front of her, and silently withdrew her hand.

After smacking his lips, Gu Santong suddenly felt a bit like taking Su Xin back to the Heavenly Prison.
