How come the celestial technique I stole is so powerful?!

Lin Xiaosu didn't respond to this sentence.

This time entering Miao territory, he stayed in the Miao Village for half a month.

During this half-month, one reason was to give Gu She time to act, and the other was to accompany Yixiang.

However, something unexpected happened.

In Miao territory, he learned the deepest knowledge of Gu Technique.

He found out that there is a mysterious place in the human body called the "Creation Gate."

The Creation Gate is the key to the "Unity of Human and Worm" in Gu Technique, and he helped Yixiang open this gate, sending Yixiang soaring into the sky on the spot.

This kind of soaring into the sky is not a metaphor for feeling overly excited, but a literal ascension of the body.

What does this indicate?

It indicates that the Creation Gate truly exists.

Then, there's an enormous article to be written about it.

Currently, the biggest bottleneck in genetic technology in the world, Lin Xiaosu has found the key to open the gate, but the difficulty is extraordinarily high because this theory needs to be applied to Genetic People, which isn't straightforward.

Yixiang has a Lifebound Gu inside her, and the Qi of the Lifebound Gu can serve as his guide, which allowed him to successfully find Yixiang's Creation Gate.

Genetic People, however, do not have a Lifebound Gu or Qi guidance, so finding the Creation Gate is no easy task.

Therefore, even though he intended to conduct a test on Blue Demon, he couldn't whet her appetite — he was very aware of Blue Demon's complex mentality at that moment.

She is the Qianlong King, accustomed to dominating battles in the past, and in the recent fights, she found herself lacking strength. For a Heavenly King used to leading, this was overly sensitive, and he knew very well that she was particularly eager for another breakthrough.

The greater the hope, sometimes the greater the disappointment, so it's best not to promise too much without a sure guarantee.

Suddenly, Lin Xiaosu's car stopped.

He lifted his gaze to the left, his expression thoughtful.

"What's wrong?"

"He went back!" Lin Xiaosu said.

Blue Demon's heart jolted: "Let's get out of the car too!"

The two got out of the car and began climbing the mountain in the rain and mist.

There was no path on the mountain, and it was even more so in the rain, but as Lin Xiaosu entered the forest, there seemed to be a clear trail under his feet.

Blue Demon originally had no confidence in this kind of tracking, but after being with him for a long time, her confidence in him was unprecedented.

Soon, she saw traces.

On a piece of soil ahead, someone had passed not long ago.

No footprints, but traces!

Her heartbeat accelerated.

This person they were tracking was no ordinary individual.

This was a Nirvana from Nirvana Island.

And he was one of the most terrifying people among them, experiencing Nirvana once every year. He had been off Nirvana Island for three years, during which he had undergone three upgrades.

Such a person was not comparable to Baofeng or Ice Blade.

In the dark jungle, among the rain and mist, snakes naturally have a menacing presence; this super Nirvana with fused snake genes, if he were to launch a sudden attack...

No one could predict the outcome.

Yet, she knew deeply the importance of this mission.

No matter how dangerous, she had to go!

Her senses were on high alert, listening and watching everything around her, with the Invisible Dragon Eye using her hair as a fulcrum to detect in all directions.

The rain continued to pour in the mountain.

The fog enveloped the mountain.

She couldn't sense the enemy's presence, only a chill perhaps coming from within, quietly spreading.

Lin Xiaosu seemed relaxed, but his relaxed demeanor usually was deceptive.

At that moment, he was equally on high alert.

Even though Gu She had been outside Hu Die's window for two hours, like a man awakening to his conscience.

But, if you measure a Nirvana from Nirvana Island with conscience, that would be naive.

They continued on their way.

He followed Gu She's path over the past couple of days, making a big circle, arriving once again at Wushen Mountain. Two days had passed, and he had been circling around.

Blue Demon's voice quietly reached his ear: "Going in circles! Could it be... could he have predicted we would track him beforehand?"

"It's possible there's another scenario!" Lin Xiaosu replied softly: "He lacks a life coordinate, he is bewildered, not knowing where to go."

"You remain as optimistic as ever," Blue Demon smiled faintly.

Optimistic?

Yes, if Gu She lost his life coordinate, that would be the best chance to turn him.

Lin Xiaosu passed through the road ahead, just as a thick fog rolled in, and suddenly he stopped, his expression turning serious partly concealed in the fog.

Blue Demon's heart skipped a beat, stepping to his side within a moment.

Lin Xiaosu lifted his gaze: "Gu She, care to chat?"

The jungle wind blew past, moaning softly.

The jungle rain fell over the leaves, rustling gently.

There was no echo, in the silent deep woods, he seemed to be talking to himself.

Lin Xiaosu said: "I am Lin Xiaosu! Just this name should let you know that I have my sights on you! You can't escape!"

Though his voice wasn't loud, the valley faintly echoed back.

Blue Demon's entire sensing power moved, the Dragon Eye's power maxed out, yet she gained nothing; a thought arose in her mind, was it just a bluff?!

Lin Xiaosu said: "You've seen Qianlong's release, it mentions Qianlong's promise, as long as you reveal who the real Lord is and where they are hiding, you will have made a great contribution, and you will be excused from what you've done in the past."

Still silent.

Lin Xiaosu said: "I know, asking you to make a decision suddenly may be hard for you, I'll give you time! Additionally, I'll deliver you two things, first, a fact! Your father's death was not an accident, as a Genetic Person, it's not easy to die accidentally; he was killed by Nine Headed Snake, the primary aim was to clear obstacles and capture you and your sibling."

The wind grew stronger, and the rain intensified, yet there was still no movement in the jungle.

Lin Xiaosu added, "Secondly, your sister entrusted me with a gift for you, which I've hung here."

Reaching out, a small horse appeared in his palm, and he hung it from a tree branch in front of him with a string.

Blue Demon's eyes widened as she stared at the little horse.

What is this?

Lin Xiaosu turned around, "Think about it well tonight, I'll come to see you tomorrow!"

He and Blue Demon turned and walked across the dense forest in front of them, ascending a slope on the opposite side.

On the hillside, Blue Demon looked back.

The Dragon Eye's long-distance vision was immediately maximized.

Her heart suddenly leaped, a sliver of sound passed to Lin Xiaosu: "The little horse... is gone!"

Lin Xiaosu smiled faintly, "Let's go downhill and find an inn!"

The two walked down the slope, emerging from the rain and mist, to a tasteful tavern by the main road near the Nanchuan River, called Fengwu Mountain Residence.

They stepped onto the highway, and Lin Xiaosu's clothes dried naturally in the wind.

Blue Demon's clothes also dried naturally.

They entered Fengwu Mountain Residence, slightly smiling at the receptionist: "One room, please!"

They entered a guest room on the third floor.

Lin Xiaosu plugged in the electricity and boiled some water.

Blue Demon gently arranged her disheveled hair, her gaze slowly shifting over: "He was really in the jungle just now."

"Of course!"

"What purpose does that little horse serve?"

"That was a horse Hu Die folded for him years ago, using reeds by the roadside. He regarded it as precious. When a classmate tore off its tail, he even got into a fight with them."

"I see! You told him two things, both lethal to the core. First, that he has a vendetta with the Lord for killing his father. Second, you give him a familial connection." Blue Demon said, "Are you confident he will really stand on our side?"

"Ninety percent!" Lin Xiaosu replied.

"A ninety percent certainty... I still feel you're being overly optimistic. It's not that easy to suddenly switch sides," Blue Demon said.

"If without external force, expecting him to suddenly change his stance would indeed be overly optimistic," Lin Xiaosu smiled mysteriously, "But if I'm not mistaken, there will be external forces helping tonight."

Blue Demon's eyes widened: "What external force?"

Lin Xiaosu's gaze turned towards the jungle: "Do you think only the three of us are in the jungle?"

Blue Demon's whole body shuddered...

There were more than just them in the jungle!

There was a fourth person!

This fourth person was the "assistance" he was referring to!

Oh my god, I am the Qianlong King!

Why do I increasingly feel like I'm so inexperienced?

If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have discovered the existence of Gu She in that jungle at all.

Yet he could detect it.

Not only Gu She!

He also discovered the fourth person!

This Invisible Man, he even pre-arranged a position for them on the chessboard...

Blue Demon took a deep breath to calm her inner turmoil: "Is this Invisible Man sent by the Lord to monitor him?"

"Yes, I told Gu She those words also to inform this observer that Gu She cannot escape my grasp. If they desire the Lord's safety, they must kill Gu She..."

Blue Demon's eyes suddenly brightened: "Next, it's Gu She's turn to counter-kill! If Gu She kills the person sent by the Lord, he must completely remove the Lord to ensure his own safety."

"This is the pledge!" Lin Xiaosu picked up the boiled kettle, "The opportunity is given to him, it's up to him how to choose!"

In the jungle, the autumn rain continuously fell.

The rain mist lingered in the jungle, making it as dark as dusk despite it being daytime.

Under a tree, within the shadows, stood a young man, his face extremely pale, rain trickling down his hair, down the little horse in his hand.

His gaze, once as venomous as a snake, was now filled with bewilderment.

This little horse, in theory, he had never seen before, so why did holding it give him an inexplicable sense of familiarity?

Some seemingly dreamlike fragments of memory once again flowed through his mind, turning into clearer images...

Why do these images appear in his mind?

And when did they start appearing?

After the second Nirvana.

Every Nirvana is a rebirth, but with each rebirth, some scattered images arise: a remote village, a little girl, an old tree, a rundown campus, and now, a little horse.

The images of this little horse slowly emerged in the rain mist, gradually connecting...

Slowly freezing into a young girl from back then, today's teacher Hu Die...

Sister!

This is the little horse that sister folded years ago!

Suddenly, a sinister voice came from the jungle: "Gu She, do you want to rebel?"

The voice was elusive, seemingly coming from every wisp of fog.

Gu She slowly lifted his head: "Wu Guang, you're tracking me?"

"You left without notice, departing from Li Mountain, that's courting death, but the Lord values your talent and is reluctant to kill you outright. But today, you've committed a grave mistake by presenting yourself to Lin Xiaosu. Your existence now threatens the Holy Mountain's safety," Wu Guang said. "Sorry, you must die!"

As the voice fell, the mist suddenly condensed!

With a swoosh, Gu She was covered in blood from head to toe.

The intangible and formless mist at that moment seemed to become a sharp sword, piercing forcefully through Gu She's entire being.
