My Gu Can Cultivate on Their Own

Chapter 135 First Battle

Fang Yuan was engrossed in listening, but when he followed Gu Tianqing’s gaze, he could not help but be shocked.

Outside the imperial palace, there was a sea of people.

Using True Sight Gu’s ability, he saw Enlightenment Realm and Fusion Realm experts everywhere. There were as many of them as hairs on an ox.

There were many Nascent Soul Realm experts, but they were all Dao protectors, protecting these prodigies from dying due to accidents.

In comparison, the Gu Immortal Sect was very ambitious.

They let him, an Enlightenment Realm expert, be the leader. They did not even send out a Fusion Realm expert. It was unknown if Gu Zhenren was testing them intentionally, or if he was too confident.

Vas

But then again, this was a grand event for the entire empire.

Sects from all over the world gathered here. If they could show off their strength in the grand meeting, his name would probably spread throughout the Yan Shen Empire soon.

Fang Yuan told the others to find a place to wait, while he went forward to report.

He found a short line and stood at the end.

Soon, it was his turn.

The reporting office was a second layer Nascent Soul expert. Seeing that it was an application from the Gu Immortal Sect, his attitude was quite amiable.

“Alright, after everyone has finished registering, come back here to draw the lots for the matches today.”

Fang Yuan nodded to show that he understood.

There were at least several thousand sects that had come to register.

However, there were dozens of registration points, so it should be over soon.

After waiting for a while, the registration office registered the last application order, and all the people returned to the imperial palace. Soon, they each came out with a big box.

A noble figure suddenly appeared on the inner wall of the imperial palace. “Lord Saint has arrived!”

Lord Saint was the person who ruled this empire.

Countless Gu masters cupped their fists and saluted, showing their respect to the supreme.

That man did not speak. Looking down at everyone, his sharp eyes revealed an infinite dignity. A civil official beside him took a step forward, saying, “The Gu Dao convention has officially begun!” “Representatives of each sect, please draw lots, and then go to the corresponding battle area to wait for the next round of drawing lots.”

Fang Yuan was the first to stand at the registration area to draw lots, and opened it to take a look.

It was the eastern region. There was no preoccupation with the area of the first stage, and sects of all levels of strength might encounter each other, so Fang Yuan did not care.

After returning to the where his teammates were, he immediately brought them to the corresponding area. A seventh layer Nascent Soul Realm expert was already waiting here.

When the people from the other sects arrived one after another, he asked everyone to submit their application orders and carry out the second round of coordination.

Not long after, he asked someone to carry a large box up.

He slowly opened his mouth and explained the rules of the Gu Dao convention.

It was basically the same as what Gu Tianqing said, and there was not much deviation. It seemed like it had been maintained for a long

time.

After the introduction, they asked people to draw lots.

“Each person will choose three from the box. You must take three, no more, no less.” “Those who draw from their own sect can treat it as skipping the turn, or can also wait for the second round to draw again.”

This rule was a little interesting. One could choose not to take a turn for nothing. This meant that they would get fewer sect points. However, the total points might not necessarily be lower than those of the sects that fought three rounds. The only difference was, if the sect had a stable number of points, they could use this to fight for the individual points ranking.

It was also a way to prevent geniuses from being dragged down by the team. Fang Yuan wanted to lead the Gu Immortal Sect to the end, so he naturally wanted to fight all three rounds, thus he was at the front.

The first was a sect called the Tai Yi Sect.

Fang Yuan had never heard of it. It should be a small or medium sized sect, and it should not be too strong.

But the second group was a bit troublesome. It was called the Tianxiang Sect.

This was a large sect on the other side of the Gu Immortal Sect, and although it was not as strong as the Gu Demon Sect, the disciples of the younger generation would not be much weaker.

It was said that the Tianxiang Sect was very special. It only recruited female disciples with good looks, and everyone there used a mental cultivation method called the heavenly essence Yin shouting technique to nurture Gu worms.

Under the condition of maintaining a virgin body, the cultivation speed was very fast. Other people with poor talent might not even be able to break through from Body Refinement to Foundation Establishment in ten years, but with them, no matter how bad their talent was, they would be able to break through in three to five years.

“If the first match is fast, I’ll pay attention to their match.”

Fang Yuan paid full attention to it.

Then came the third sect.

It was also an ordinary sect. He had never heard of it, so it was probably not very strong.

Overall, their luck was not bad. There was only one strong opponent in the three lots. As long as they took down the Tianxiang Sect, the Gu Immortal Sect would be able to enter the next stage of the competition with a complete victory.

After obtaining the match numbers, Fang Yuan led the others to wait outside the region.

Ruan Qinghe tilted her head and asked, “Senior, what’s our number?”

“Number 24.”

“24… There are only four arenas in the area. Doesn’t that mean that we have to go on stage in the sixth round?”.

“Yes, prepare well. We’ll fight against the Tai Yi Sect in the first round.”

“The Tai Yi Sect…”

Gu Tianqing rubbed his fists and asked, “Senior, can I go first?”

“Why do you look like you have a deep grudge against them? What, do you have a grudge against them?”

Fang Yuan glanced at him. “They’re the team that lives downstairs.”

Gu Tianqing’s face was full of fighting spirit. “I want to grind Wang Luo to the ground!”

“You lost so much spirit essence yesterday, can you do it?”

“Of course I can! I can even go for a second round!”

“Alright then.”

Fang Yuan agreed.

In fact, in front of the Tai Yi sect, he, Gu Tianqing and Wan Qian who was still unconscious were very consistent scorers.

This was the difference in strength.

Although they were lacking one person now, in terms of battle order, there was no need to be too particular. Qin Han or Ruan Qinghe could easily win.

The real opponent was the Tianxiang Sect.

Very soon, the Gu Dao convention officially began. On the first round, eight sects each went on stage.

The rest of the people watched their performances from the outside.

The real world was focused on them!

Presumably, when one stood on stage, they would definitely be under a lot of pressure.

Fang Yuan swept his gaze over them. They were all battles between Gu masters in the second or third layers of the Enlightenment Realm.

There was nothing to see.

In his eyes, as long as it wasn’t a battle between geniuses, he basically couldn’t summarize any experience that was beneficial to him.

He had no choice.

These people were full of mistakes when they fought. Even if it was him when he was at the third layer of the Enlightenment Realm, he would still be able to instantly beat his opponent with one move.

In the end, they actually fought back and forth even though there was a difference in cultivation level.

In the end, it became a tug-of-war battle of spirit essence.

But there was one arena that was more shocking. There was even a peak Foundation Establishment expert. The result was obvious, he was beaten down the second the battle started.

Under the gazes of tens of thousands of people, he lost all his face.

The battles between the four arenas were fast and slow.

Soon, the victors were decided, and the fifth round’s sects went up to challenge each other.

“Gu Immortal Sect, you’re up.”

The group looked at each other.

It seemed that they did not need to wait until the sixth round.
