"Then what's your name?" the Yaochi Saint asked gently.

The baby girl shook her head: "I don't have a name yet. Can my father and mother give me one?"

"Of course." Gu Sheng said with a smile, "You were born from a raw stone, so let's call you 'Shiling'."

"Shi Ling? That sounds great!" The baby girl clapped her little hands and laughed happily, "Then my name will be Shi Ling!"

The Saint of Yaochi looked at Shi Ling's innocent smile, and felt an inexplicable feeling in her heart. She gently stroked Shi Ling's head and said: "Shi Ling, we will be a family from now on. We will take good care of you."

However, at this moment, a powerful breath suddenly came from the distance. The expressions of Gu Sheng and the Yaochi Saint changed. They felt the hostility and threat contained in the aura.

"No! Someone is coming!" Gu Sheng said in a deep voice, "We have to get out of here quickly!"

The Saint of Yaochi nodded, picked up Shi Ling and Gu Sheng and quickly left the secret garden. Not long after they left, a dark shadow fell on the location where they were before. It was a mysterious man wearing a black robe. He glanced at the surroundings coldly, and then a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Want to escape? It's not that easy!"

Gu Sheng and the Yaochi Saint led Shi Ling through the secret realm, trying to get rid of the pursuers behind them. However, that powerful aura always followed them like a shadow, as if they couldn't get rid of it no matter where they fled.

"What should we do? We seem to be locked!" the Yaochi Saint said anxiously.

A trace of determination flashed in Gu Sheng's eyes: "We can't let them find Shi Ling! I'll break it off, and you take Shi Ling away first!"

"No! I can't let you face danger alone!" The Saint of Yaochi said firmly.

Just as the two were arguing, Shi Ling suddenly said: "Father, mother, you don't have to fight. I have a way to get rid of them."

Gu Sheng and Yaochi Saintess both looked at Shi Ling in surprise: "What can you do?"

Shi Ling closed his eyes and muttered words in his small mouth. After a moment, she opened her eyes and pointed in one direction and said, "Go that way, I have a good friend waiting for us there."

Although the two of them were confused, they had no better solution at this time. They followed Shi Ling's guidance and saw a huge cave entrance soon after. Both sides of the cave were covered with exotic flowers and plants, and the fragrance was fragrant. At the entrance of the cave stood a young man dressed in white.

When the young man saw Gu Sheng and the others approaching, a gentle smile appeared on his face: "You are finally here."

"Who are you?" Gu Sheng asked warily, "How did you know we would come here?"

The young man smiled: "I am Shi Ling's friend. She sent me a message before, saying that there will be distinguished guests visiting."

The Saint of Yaochi looked at the young man and felt the powerful aura emanating from him, and was secretly wary in her heart. But she also knew that this was not the time to become suspicious, so she asked, "Can you help us get rid of the pursuers behind us?"

"Of course." The young man smiled and nodded, "This is my territory, I guarantee they can't find you."

After saying that, he turned around and led the three of them into the depths of the cave. The inside of the cave was as complicated as a maze, but the young man led them through it with ease. Soon they came to a spacious stone chamber. In the center of the stone chamber was a huge stone tablet engraved with ancient runes.

"You guys take a rest here first." The young man pointed to the stone table and bench in the stone room and said, "I'll go deal with the trouble outside."

Gu Sheng and Yaochi Saint looked at each other and nodded: "Thank you very much."

Soon after the boy left, there were roars and screams outside. About a tea time later, the boy came back. There was no blood or dust on his body, as if he had just gone for a walk.

"It's solved." He said lightly, "You can stay here with peace of mind."

Gu Sheng and the Yaochi Saint were both relieved. They knew that they could escape from danger this time thanks to the mysterious young man in front of them. And Shi Ling happily jumped to the boy's side and hugged his thigh: "Thank you, brother!"

Yaochi Holy Land, with beautiful bells and beautiful bells, has been the holy land in the hearts of immortal cultivators since ancient times.

On this day, shocking news suddenly came from the depths of the Holy Land - while the Holy Maiden of Yaochi was excavating an ancient site, she accidentally discovered an ancient divine infant sleeping in a jade box.

Although this divine baby is sleeping with its eyes closed, its whole body is exuding strong life fluctuations, and it is obviously not an ordinary thing. The saint knew that this matter was not trivial, and immediately blocked the news. However, there is no airtight wall in the world, and soon, the news spread like the wind throughout the entire world of cultivation.

The major forces took action upon hearing the news and sent their capable officers to the Yaochi Holy Land under various names to find out the truth.

"Holy girl, people from Mount Yue Qian of Wuliang Mountain want to see you." A Yaochi disciple hurriedly came to report.

Saintess Liu frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "If you don't see me, just say that I am practicing in seclusion and don't want to disturb you."

"Yes!" The disciple took the order and left.

However, this is just the beginning. Immediately afterwards, Jiang Yichen from the Tiandao Sect, Elder Lingyue from the Yaoguang Holy Land, Venerable Ji Mie from the Mie Dao Palace, Ji Daochong from the Ji family and others also came to the Yaochi Holy Land one after another. Either overtly or covertly, they all expressed their strong interest in the ancient divine infant.

The Saint of Yaochi knew in her heart that these people were the best in the world of cultivation, and it was not easy to offend any of them. But she knew better that the importance of the ancient divine infant was self-evident and she must not let these forces get involved.

"Holy girl, Jiang Yichen from Tiandao Sect would like to see you." Another disciple came to report.

"No." The saint refused again.

At this time, the Holy Maiden of Yaochi was extremely upset. She knew that she had to come up with a perfect strategy to deal with this storm. While she was thinking hard, a figure suddenly flashed in front of her.

"Holy girl, let me help you." The person who came was none other than Gu Sheng, a descendant of the ancient divine beast. He had been secretly protecting the Yaochi Holy Land.

The saint was overjoyed when she saw this: "Senior Gu Sheng, it's great that you can come! Now all the major forces are eyeing the ancient divine infant. What should we do?"

Gu Sheng smiled slightly: "Leave this matter to me. Don't worry, the ancient divine infant will never fall into their hands."

After saying that, Gu Sheng disappeared in a flash. The saint looked at his back and took a deep breath, and the stone in her heart finally fell halfway.

At the same time, outside the Yaochi Holy Land, representatives of the major forces gathered together. They test each other and have their own hidden agendas, all trying to monopolize the supreme opportunity of the ancient divine infant.

"People from Yue Qianshan, why did you Wuliangshan come here this time?" Jiang Yichen asked with a half-smile.

Master Yue Qianshan glanced at him: "Of course we are here to exchange cultivation experiences with Yaochi Holy Land. As for other things... Haha, no comment."

Elder Lingyue also spoke: "We, Yaoguang Holy Land and Yaochi Holy Land, have always had contacts, and we came here this time to deepen the friendship between the two sects."

"Hmph! Friendship?" Lord Annihilation sneered, "I think you are all here for the ancient divine infant!"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became tense. Although the major forces are tacitly aware of each other, no one wants to be the first to break up.

Suddenly, a figure fell from the sky and landed in front of everyone. It’s Gu Sheng!
"Thank you for your hard work coming all the way." Gu Sheng smiled slightly, "But I regret to tell you that the ancient divine infant is not in the Yaochi Holy Land."

"What?!" Everyone was shocked when they heard this, "Then where is it?!"

"She has flown to the Taichu Ancient Mine to look for her tribe." Gu Sheng's mysterious smile was like a pebble on the lake, causing ripples in people's hearts. "You are committing fraud! What evidence do you have about whether the Ancient Divine Infant really flew to the Taichu Ancient Mine?" Yue Qianshan's voice was like thunder, exploding in the Yaochi Holy Land. His face was flushed, and he was obviously moved. Really angry.

Gu Sheng's eyes were as bright as fire, and his attitude was as firm as iron: "I, Gu Sheng, have always said the same thing. Believe it or not, it's up to you."

Just when the conflict was about to break out, little nun Jingyin gently pulled Yue Qianshan's sleeve, and her voice flowed like a clear spring: "Uncle Master, wait a minute. Brother Gu's eyes are clear, and what he said should be true."

Jingyin's words seemed to have a magical power, which made Yue Qianshan's anger that was about to burst out a little calmer. But the atmosphere in the field was still tense, as if a tight string could break at any time.

At this moment, several monks who knew nothing about the world jumped out. They obviously thought that Gu Sheng was deliberately deceiving and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity.

"Hmph! Do you think you can deceive us like this? How can we give up such an important treasure of the ancient divine infant!" One of the monks shouted loudly and rushed towards Gu Sheng.

A coldness flashed in Gu Sheng's eyes, and he suddenly appeared in front of the monk. I saw a flash of golden light, and Gu Sheng's ancient holy body began to move. He was covered in golden light, like a golden god of war. He struck out with a palm, and his golden palm touched the monk's chest, instantly knocking him back several steps.

"If you want to be wild, it depends on whether you have the ability!" Gu Sheng's voice was like the north wind in the cold winter, shocking everyone around him.

Seeing this, other monks who were ready to make a move chose to retreat. They knew that Gu Sheng was not a man who would intimidate with empty words. Yue Qianshan also chose to be patient temporarily under Jingyin's persuasion.

At this moment, a powerful aura suddenly fell from the sky and enveloped the entire Yaochi Holy Land. A man in black stood in the sky, scanning the crowd below with cold eyes.

"Hahaha! You can't find anything even after wearing iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it! I am determined to get the ancient divine infant!" The voice of the man in black was cold and arrogant, like a poisonous snake, which made people fearful.

A trace of solemnity flashed in Gu Sheng's eyes, and he knew that the storm was far from over. The whereabouts of the ancient divine infant seems to have become more confusing.

After the man in black appeared, the atmosphere instantly became tense. Gu Sheng and the Yaochi Saint looked at each other and saw the firmness and determination in each other's eyes. They knew that they must unite at this time to fight against this sudden and powerful enemy.

"Who are you? Why are you here to cause trouble?" Gu Sheng asked coldly, his voice like a sharp sword pointing directly at the heart of the man in black.

The man in black just snorted coldly and did not answer Gu Sheng's question. He flashed and disappeared in an instant. The next moment, he appeared in front of Gu Sheng and slapped Gu Sheng with a palm. This palm was powerful and heavy, obviously trying to defeat Gu Sheng in one fell swoop.

Gu Sheng was well prepared. He dodged the palm in a flash, and at the same time stabbed the man in black with his backhand sword. The sword light was like a dragon, going straight to the throat of the man in black. Seeing this, the man in black retreated quickly, and at the same time, he waved a palm and collided with Gu Sheng's sword light.

There was a loud "bang" sound, and the two attacks collided in the air, bursting out with dazzling light.

"What a skill! No wonder you dare to be so arrogant!" The man in black sneered and disappeared again.

This time his attack was more fierce and cruel, with strong killing intent in every palm.

But Gu Sheng was not afraid. He used the Nine Gale Swords to start a fierce battle with the man in black.

The sword energy was flowing freely, and the two of them had fought for dozens of rounds.

Yue Qianshan and others also joined the battle one after another, fighting fiercely with the men brought by the men in black.

The entire Yaochi Holy Land was shrouded in this sudden battle.

Although the man in black is powerful, Gu Sheng is not an ordinary person.

The two were fighting from the sky to the ground, and it was hard to tell the winner for a while.

As time went by, Gu Sheng gradually showed his advantages.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

His swordsmanship became more and more powerful, each sword aimed directly at the vital part of the man in black.

Although the man in black was powerful, he seemed a little weak in front of Gu Sheng's Nine Gale Swords.

"Hey!"

In a fierce confrontation, Gu Sheng stabbed the man in black in the chest with his sword.

"what!"

The man in black screamed and took a few steps back.

He stared at Gu Sheng with an angry face, as if he wanted to eat him alive.

"Very good! You succeeded in irritating me! Next, I will let you know what despair is!"

The man in black roared angrily, forming seals with his hands, and a powerful aura emanated from him.

Everyone felt an invisible pressure covering the entire battlefield, making them almost breathless.

Gu Sheng did not flinch. He held the Jade Girl Sword tightly, golden light flowing all over his body, preparing for the next wave of attacks from the man in black.

He knew that this battle was far from over, and he had to persevere in order to protect the safety of the Yaochi Holy Land and the Ancient Divine Infant.

The man in black flashed and launched another fierce attack on Gu Sheng.

This time, his attacks were even more bizarre and unpredictable, making them difficult to guard against.

But Gu Sheng did not panic. He used the shadow hiding skill and the carefree immortal steps to deal with the man in black.

Every attack was skillfully avoided by him. At the same time, he constantly launched counterattacks in an attempt to break the defense of the men in black.

The man in black is extremely powerful, and his defense is as impenetrable as an iron wall.

Although Gu Sheng's attack was fierce, he was still unable to break through the defense of the man in black.

As time passed by, the battle between the two entered a fierce stage.

The atmosphere in the field became increasingly tense, as if a bomb might explode at any time.

At this moment, the Yaochi Saint suddenly joined the battle.

Her figure is elegant, like a fairy descending to earth. Every attack is accompanied by the fairyland vision of Yaochi, which makes people's eyes bright. (End of chapter)
