Jiang Yifei did not force it, but just nodded to show his understanding. At this moment, Jiang Yichen suddenly said, "Brother Gu seems to have a treasure on him."

When he communicated with his mount, the mount sensed an unusual aura fluctuation on Gu Sheng. Although it was only a flash, it was enough to attract his attention, which made him very interested in Gu Sheng. However, Jiang Yifei and Jiang Caixuan did not show greed, but just glanced at Jiang Yichen lightly, signaling him not to act rashly.

Gu Sheng was shocked, but he smiled calmly and said, "Mr. Jiang, you are joking. I have nothing, so how can I have any valuables?"

After that, he stood up and said goodbye, "It's getting late, I'll take my leave first."

After saying that, he hurriedly left the inn.

He knew in his heart that part of his secret had been exposed and he had to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible.

So he did not return to his residence in the small town, but ran directly into the mountains.

At the same time, Jiang Yichen also followed quietly, wanting to find out what was going on.

However, he did not realize that Gu Sheng had already noticed his tracking and deliberately led him into a dangerous valley.

"Haha! You really followed me!" Gu Sheng suddenly turned around and laughed, "Since you are so greedy, I will let you see my methods!"

After saying that, he flipped his hand, and a sword flashing with cold light appeared in his palm.

This sword is none other than his lower-grade earth-level treasure—the Xuantian Sword!

Gu Sheng's figure flashed and he attacked Jiang Yichen. The sword flashed, as fast as a meteor across the sky!
Jiang Yichen was shocked. He didn't expect Gu Sheng to be so powerful!

He quickly urged his mount to defend himself, secretly regretting that he was too greedy.

At this moment, he could no longer escape and could only bite the bullet and fight with Gu Sheng.

The two figures intertwined, sword energy was everywhere, and the whole valley was echoing with the sound of metal clashing!
For a moment it was hard to tell who was better!

However, as time went on, Jiang Yichen gradually felt overwhelmed.

Although his cultivation is not weak, it is still slightly inferior to Gu Shenglai.

In addition, he had previously relied too much on the power of his mount, and now that the mount was injured and unable to help him with all its strength, he was put at a disadvantage.

After being hit hard by Gu Sheng, Jiang Yichen vomited blood and fell to the ground.

He looked at the Xuantian Sword in Gu Sheng's hand with fear and reluctance in his eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "You... who are you?"

Gu Sheng smiled coldly, put away the Xuantian Sword, turned around and left, leaving only one sentence: "Remember, some people are not someone you can afford to offend!"

After saying that, his figure disappeared in the valley, leaving behind only a mess, Jiang Yichen shivering on the ground, and the sword energy and the sound of rain that gradually faded away...

On the other side, in the deep mountains far away from Qingfeng Town, Gu Sheng found a secluded cave to hide in.

He sat cross-legged and began to regulate his breathing to heal his wounds.

Although he suffered some minor injuries in the previous battle with Jiang Yichen, it was not serious.

At this moment, his heart was surging, and he thought to himself: "The Jiang family is indeed not simple. Even a disciple like Jiang Yichen has such strength, not to mention Jiang Yifei and others. It seems that I have to be more careful in the future."

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but take a deep breath and slowly exhale the irritability and uneasiness in his heart.

Afterwards, he began to practice with his eyes closed, and gradually entered a state of selflessness...

After an unknown amount of time, Gu Sheng suddenly opened his eyes, with a gleam of light in his eyes.

He felt the strength in his body increase a little bit, and couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

"Although this was a bit thrilling, it can be considered a blessing in disguise." He said to himself, "Next, I will work harder to practice and strive to break through the secret realm of the Wheel Sea as soon as possible and reach a higher level!"

After saying that, he stood up, stretched his muscles, felt the surging power in his body, and his heart was filled with confidence and expectation.

Then he walked out of the cave, looked up at the dark clouds gradually dispersing in the sky, took a deep breath of fresh air, and a determined look appeared on his face.

"So what if I come from an ancient family? I, Gu Sheng, will definitely carve out a world of my own!"

Killing Jiang Yichen brought endless troubles to Gu Sheng. The knights of Jiang family seemed to have locked onto him, leaving him with no way to go up to heaven or down to earth. For a while, he was paranoid and like a frightened bird.

"Aww——"

Late at night, the roar of a strange beast broke the silence of the valley, shaking the leaves to fall. Gu Sheng clung to a boulder, held his breath, and carefully poked his head out. He saw a green-scaled beast carrying a Jiang family knight searching for his trace nearby.

"This damn guy is so difficult to deal with!" Gu Sheng cursed in his heart, with beads of sweat on his forehead.

His cultivation had reached the secret realm of the Wheel Sea and he had opened up the Sea of ​​Bitterness, but facing the powerful knights of the Jiang family, he still felt unprecedented pressure. Whenever he activated his skills, the Wheel of Life under his navel would show mountains, rivers, lakes, seas, flowers, birds, beasts, and golden waves, with a mighty aura. At this moment, he did not dare to be careless.

Gu Sheng possessed an ancient holy body, and his body was extremely strong. When he was in action, golden light shone all over his body, like a golden god of war. But his opponent was no pushover either. The Jiang family knight held a spiritual weapon, which flashed with blue light, and every swing was enough to make Gu Sheng feel palpitations.

"Hmph! Do you think you can escape?" The Jiang family knight sneered and swung the weapon in his hand again, emitting a sharp sword energy.

Gu Sheng dodged the attack skillfully, but he became more and more anxious. He knew that this was not a solution and he had to find a way to get rid of this tough opponent.

"Nine Swords of Swift Wind!" Gu Sheng shouted, and his figure shuttled through the woods like the wind. The Xuantian Sword in his hand turned into nine sword lights and attacked the Jiang family knight. This was one of his unique skills, with infinite power and surging sword energy, as if to tear apart all obstacles.

The Jiang family knight was no ordinary man, he dodged Gu Sheng's attack with a flash, and slashed at Gu Sheng with his sword. Gu Sheng was startled and dodged quickly, but he was still scratched by the sword and his arm was bleeding.

"Damn it!" Gu Sheng cursed in his heart, knowing that he would be defeated sooner or later if he continued like this. He had to find a way to change the situation.

At this moment, an idea suddenly occurred to him. "Shadow Hiding Technique!" He shouted and disappeared instantly. This was a kind of invisibility technique he practiced that allowed him to hide his body and avoid the enemy's attack at a critical moment.

The Jiang Knight was stunned. He obviously didn't expect Gu Sheng to disappear suddenly. He looked around to try to find Gu Sheng's trace but found nothing. "Xiaoyao Dengxian Bu!" Gu Sheng shouted in his heart and shuttled through the woods like the wind. This was a speed skill he practiced that allowed him to burst out amazing speed in a short period of time.
He used this speed to quickly distance himself from the Jiang Family Knights and then plunged into the deep mountains. He knew that only in this way could he completely get rid of this difficult opponent.

In the dense jungle, Gu Sheng was like a nimble cheetah, constantly changing direction and speed. Behind him, the roars of the Jiang family knights and the roars of the strange beasts gradually faded away, but Gu Sheng did not dare to relax his vigilance at all.

He knew that he couldn't keep running away like this, and he had to find a way to solve this problem once and for all.

At this time, he thought of the ancient forbidden land, a mysterious place surrounded by endless mountains and covering an area of ​​800 miles. According to legend, it was full of curses and dangers, but some people also said that it hid endless opportunities and treasures.

A trace of determination flashed in Gu Sheng's eyes, and he decided to take a risk and enter the ancient forbidden land.

He believed that the holy fruit he had taken before might be able to help him resist the curse there. Moreover, he also wanted to take this opportunity to explore what secrets were hidden in that mysterious place.

So, he turned around and ran towards the ancient forbidden land. Along the way, he carefully avoided various dangers and constantly used his skills and magic to deal with emergencies.

His heart is full of determination and courage, and he will move forward no matter how many difficulties and obstacles lie ahead.

Finally, after going through countless hardships and dangers, Gu Sheng arrived at the edge of the ancient forbidden land. He stood on the top of a mountain, overlooking the mysterious land shrouded in clouds and mist below. His heart was filled with anticipation and excitement, but also with a hint of inexplicable fear.

"Ancient forbidden land, here I come!" Gu Sheng took a deep breath, jumped off the mountain, and explored towards the unknown world.

Not far behind him, the roars of the Jiang family knights and the roars of the beasts rang out again. It was obvious that they had not given up on hunting down Gu Sheng. But at this moment, Gu Sheng had made up his mind to enter the ancient forbidden land to find a glimmer of hope.

He didn't look back again, but just walked forward firmly.

After entering the ancient forbidden land, Gu Sheng immediately felt the unusual atmosphere here. The air was filled with an ancient and mysterious power that made him feel a little depressed and uneasy. But he did not retreat but continued to move forward.

He passed through dense forests and crossed steep mountains, constantly exploring deeper into the forbidden area. Here he encountered various challenges and dangers, but he successfully dealt with them all with his wisdom and strength.

As time went by, Gu Sheng gradually adapted to the environment and atmosphere here, and began to discover some strange scenes and existences, which made him more curious and eager to explore this mysterious place...

"what--"

Suddenly, a shrill scream broke the silence. Gu Sheng turned around abruptly and saw a cultivator being slapped away by a huge black palm. The cultivator fell heavily to the ground, and his life or death was unknown.

Gu Sheng was startled and looked around vigilantly. He found that the danger here was far beyond his imagination. Not only were there various powerful monsters and strange traps, but there was also a mysterious force watching them in secret.

"This place is indeed unusual." Gu Sheng said to himself. He felt as if he was in a huge maze, and every step was full of unknowns and dangers.

But he had no intention of retreating, instead he became more determined to explore. He took a deep breath and continued to move forward. He knew that only by moving forward could he find a way out and escape the pursuit behind him.

"Roar--"

At this moment, a deafening roar of a beast sounded, shaking the entire valley. Gu Sheng looked up and saw a huge monster rushing down the hillside, heading straight for him.

This was a giant beast covered with scales, with red eyes and exposed fangs, looking extremely ferocious. Gu Sheng's heart tightened, but he did not panic, but responded quickly.

"Nine Swift Swords!" He shouted, and the Xuantian Sword in his hand turned into nine sword lights and slashed at the giant beast. This was one of his most powerful attack methods, and at this moment he used it without reservation.

The collision between the sword light and the giant beast made a deafening sound, and the entire valley seemed to tremble under the impact of this force.

The giant beast roared in pain, and the sword had cut several wounds on its body so deep that the bones could be seen, but it did not retreat. Instead, it rushed towards Gu Sheng even more frantically, trying to tear him to pieces.

Gu Sheng dodged the attack of the giant beast and then quickly launched a counterattack.

"Shadow Hiding Skill!"

He shouted, and his figure instantly disappeared from the spot, leaving the beast empty-handed. Then he appeared beside the beast and fiercely stabbed its soft spot with a sword.

"Pfft!"

With a muffled sound, the Xuantian Sword pierced deeply into the body of the giant beast, and blood gushed out immediately. The giant beast let out a shrill scream, then fell heavily to the ground, twitching a few times before it stopped moving.

The closer you get to the center of the ancient forbidden land, the more powerful the beasts you encounter.

"Whoosh whoosh—"

The sound of the wind was mixed with the urgent breath of pursuit, and Gu Sheng's figure quickly shuttled through the dense forest, like a flash of lightning across the dark night sky.

His face was solemn and his eyes were determined. Behind him were the Jiang family knights who were chasing him relentlessly. The sound of their horse's hooves was like the drumbeat of the god of death, constantly approaching.

The ancient forbidden land is a land full of mystery and danger. According to legend, the vegetation is lush and green, and magical herbs are dotted like stars.

Gu Sheng had once had the honor of tasting the holy fruit and divine spring, and knew well their wonders.

Faced with the siege of powerful monsters and Jiang family knights, he was well aware of the disparity in strength. If he insisted on moving forward, he would probably die.

On the way, he suddenly felt a powerful pressure descending from the sky. Looking up, he saw a golden-winged Roc soaring in the sky. Its wings were like clouds drooping from the sky, and its cry shook the earth.

All living creatures seemed to tremble under this pressure, and even the ferocious beasts avoided its edge.

“Even this legendary beast has appeared in the world. The ancient forbidden land must have undergone strange changes.” Gu Sheng sighed in his heart. He knew that even if he could reach the edge of the forbidden land by chance, it would be difficult for him to go deep into it to look for opportunities.

What made him feel even more desperate was that the Jiang family's pursuit intensified again.

In addition to the original team of knights, the Jiang family sent five more powerful knights. They blocked all the main roads leading to the ancient forbidden land, and were obviously determined to put him to death.

"Jiang Yifei, Jiang Caixuan, do you really want to go this far?" Gu Sheng roared with gritted teeth, his heart filled with endless resentment towards the Jiang family.

He knew very well that this was not the time to complain and he had to come up with a plan to escape as soon as possible. (End of this chapter)
