Plants vs. Cultivation

The Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation is the second hurdle for a Jindan True Person to become a Nascent Soul True Lord. However, the Heavenly Tribulation can be resisted by external objects. As long as you are well prepared, there is still a great hope of getting through it.

On the contrary, the first step, condensing the Nascent Soul, is the most difficult. If you cannot find a breakthrough opportunity, no matter how many external objects you have, it will be useless.

Unless you take elixirs such as Ningying Pills to assist in breakthroughs, just taking elixirs to break through is completely different from feeling the breakthrough opportunity by yourself.

But for most Jindan Great True Persons, it is too difficult to find a breakthrough opportunity. You may not be able to find it even if your life span is exhausted. At this time, a Ningying Pill is their only hope.

Even if you break through with elixirs, your foundation will be a little worse, but as long as you can become a Nascent Soul True Lord, you can get a long lifespan. Even the Nascent Soul condensed by the immortal power can achieve immortality by taking over another body.

However, for Gu Mo, he no longer needs to look for any breakthrough opportunities. He can naturally condense the Nascent Soul by directly relying on the accumulation of immortal power.

In addition to comprehending the breakthrough opportunity and taking pills, Gu Mo's third way to break through the Nascent Soul is to break through by brute force.

For several consecutive days, Gu Mo has been refining the 4th-level sun essence. Feeling the increase of immortal power in the golden elixir, Gu Mo inexplicably thought of the previous breakthrough to the foundation.

In the Qi Refining Stage, Gu Mo also used the 2nd-level sun essence to condense liquid spiritual power in his body in advance. This move allowed Gu Mo to have the combat power of the foundation-building stage in the Qi Refining Stage.

The disadvantage is that he encountered a bug when he officially broke through the foundation-building stage. In the end, he still used the higher-level condensation method to successfully get rid of the bug.

At present, Gu Mo is in the Golden Core Realm, and he has obtained the immortal power with the help of the 4th-level sun essence. If he continues to refine the immortal power like this, then Gu Mo's combat power will soon reach the level of the Nascent Soul True Lord.

But will this cause me to have the same bug situation as before when I condense my Nascent Soul? It is easier to solve the bug in the Foundation Establishment Stage, as Gu Mo had the method of condensing the pill and the fake pill incarnation at that time.

But if I break through the Nascent Soul and get stuck with the bug, it will be really difficult to solve it. Now Gu Mo has no way to break through the God Transformation Stage, nor does he have an incarnation of the God Transformation Stage.

"Let the incarnation explore the way first."

Immediately, Gu Mo made a decision to improve the incarnation's cultivation first and let the incarnation help explore the way. If it is confirmed that there is no problem, the original body will break through.

Anyway, Gu Mo's original body will stay in Shennong Valley. As long as he reduces going out, he will not encounter much danger.

However, the sword cultivator incarnation seems to have a lot of karma because of the Dayan Sword Sect, and he can even encounter enemies in Shennong Valley.

Gu Mo's consciousness turned to the incarnation. At this moment, Gu Mo's incarnation was participating in the sword discussion meeting held by Ding Shiyan. Among them, there was a golden elixir sword cultivator who was frequently provoking Gu Mo's incarnation.

Gu Mo didn't know the other party. This inexplicable hostility made Gu Mo react instantly. Master Xuan Tianhen had already told Gu Mo about the problems encountered by Dayan Sword Sect.

In order to prevent Dayan Sword Sect from rising again, the three sects of the Demon Sect tried their best to suppress it. Gu Mo's incarnation went to Shennong Valley. With the current degree of infiltration of Dayan Sword Sect, it was definitely impossible to hide it from the spies of the Demon Sect.

However, the spies of the Demon Sect also knew that Xuan Tianhen would definitely protect Gu Mo in secret on his way to Shennong Valley. In addition, the distance between Dayan Sword Sect and Shennong Valley was not far, so it was impossible to succeed if they took action on the way.

Therefore, the Demon Sect chose to take action in Shennong Valley. After Gu Mo's incarnation entered Shennong Valley, Xuan Tianhen obviously could no longer continue to protect him in secret.

At that time, the Demon Sect sent a sword cultivator to enter Shennong Valley on the pretext of buying Jianxin Bamboo. After that, as long as they found an opportunity to anger Gu Mo and fight with him, they could kill him very smoothly.

It is normal to make mistakes when fighting on the ring, and no one can say anything about it.

The plan is perfect. Next, we just need to wait for Gu Mo to agree. As for taking action directly, don't joke. This is Shennong Valley. If he takes action directly, Ding Shiyan, the great Jindan master, will not stand idly by.

"Haha, is Dayan Sword Sect just good at talking?" The spy from the Demon Sect looked at Gu Mo with disdain, and his words were full of sarcasm.

The purpose of this person is naturally to irritate Gu Mo, and then let Gu Mo agree to fight with him.

"My fellow Taoist, let's not hurt the harmony in this sword fight." Ding Shiyan frowned slightly. At this moment, she was also a little unhappy. A Jindan master was so shameless that he went to fight with a foundation-building cultivator. This was really a bit too much.

But Ding Shiyan still suppressed her displeasure and reminded again.

"Fellow Daoist Ding, as a sword cultivator, how can you lose the edge of a sword cultivator." The spy from the Demon Sect naturally felt Ding Shiyan's displeasure, but he didn't care at all, because as long as he could kill Gu Mo, he would be able to get an extremely generous reward.

For that reward, what is face, can it be eaten? Can it help him improve his cultivation?

"Fellow Daoist, why don't I accompany you to spar." Ding Shiyan said coldly.

"I admire Fellow Daoist Ding's swordsmanship very much. I just have a different opinion on the swordsmanship of the Dayan Sword Sect. As a sword cultivator, what you need is to break all laws with one sword, but the Dayan Sword Sect puts all their attention on the practice of sword formations, which is completely putting the cart before the horse." The spy from the Demon Sect naturally would not spar with Ding Shiyan, the Jindan Great True Man. He only targeted Gu Mo, the genius of the Dayan Sword Sect.

And what the Demon Sect spy said does make some sense. Most sword cultivators only practice one path. The Dayan Sword Sect, which practices sword formation as a supplement, is a special case among sword cultivators.

But the Dayan Sword Sect almost became the seventh top sect, which is enough to prove that the sword formation is not weak.

But sword cultivators all believe that the sword path they practice is the strongest, so it seems reasonable for someone to challenge the inheritance of the Dayan Sword Sect now.

It is a bit difficult to challenge the foundation building with the Jindan realm.

"I will suppress my cultivation to the foundation building level." The Demon Sect spy naturally knew what the biggest obstacle was for him to challenge Gu Mo.

Hearing that the Demon Sect spy suppressed his cultivation, the other sword cultivators in the meeting turned their eyes to Gu Mo. Although the combat power of the Jindan real person who suppressed his cultivation to the foundation building stage would still be far beyond the ordinary foundation building stage, for a true sword genius, such a challenge is no longer a reason to refuse.

Gu Mo quietly watched the performance of the Demon Sect spy. Although he was a Demon Sect spy, he practiced the orthodox sword art. If he practiced magic, he would not be able to enter Shennong Valley.

"When I discuss sword art, I only discuss life and death."

Gu Mo looked at the Demon Sect spy calmly, and murderous intent had already emerged in his heart. Since the other party came with the purpose of killing him, how could Gu Mo hold back.

"Okay, okay, let's discuss life and death!"

Gu Mo's words made the Demon Sect spy ecstatic, so he had a fair reason to kill Gu Mo.

"This Taoist friend, don't be reckless."

Ding Shiyan interrupted. Although she was a Jindan Great Immortal, in this small meeting, everyone was a practitioner of the sword art, and they all called each other Taoist friends. Moreover, Gu Mo's previous understanding of the sword art was not weak at all. Ding Shiyan called him Taoist friend sincerely.

"What he said just now is right. How can a sword cultivator lose his edge?" Gu Mo smiled slightly, then turned his eyes to the spy of the Demon Sect and said coldly, "If you just want to test the edge of the sword, you need to be prepared to be killed by the sword."

"Ah, this..."

Ding Shiyan was a little distressed. It was rare for her to hold a small sword discussion meeting. She really didn't want any casualties, but the character of the sword cultivator was indeed...

Ding Shiyan, who had been practicing in Shennong Valley, did not have the edge of ordinary sword cultivators in her swordsmanship. Instead, she had more vitality, which was affected by the environment of Shennong Valley.

"Then please go to the arena."

Seeing that she couldn't persuade him, Ding Shiyan gave up and led people directly to the arena of Shennong Valley. Compared with the lively Sword Sect Arena, the Shennong Valley Arena was deserted.

After all, Shennong Valley was full of spiritual plant masters. Farming and cultivating spiritual plants was the daily life of Shennong Valley disciples. Who would come to the arena if there was nothing to do? Besides, spiritual plant masters were not good at fighting.

That is to say, only spiritual plant masters who are good at cultivating combat spiritual plants will come to the arena to test new combat spiritual plants.

But this time Ding Shiyan brought a group of sword cultivators to the arena, which naturally attracted the attention of many disciples of Shennong Valley. The disciples of Shennong Valley are not good at fighting, but they still have a lot of heart to watch the excitement.

Now, when they knew that there were foreign sword cultivators who were going to fight a life-and-death battle, many Shennong Valley disciples who had nothing to do came to watch the excitement excitedly.

Life-and-death battles are definitely rare in Shennong Valley.

"It's not too late for you two to regret now. Once the formation of the arena is opened, only one person can come out alive." Ding Shiyan reminded again.

There are several formations in the arena, one of which is specially used for life-and-death battles. After this formation is opened, it will only be lifted when there is only one person left in the arena.

At that time, even if someone admits defeat halfway, it won't work.

"As a sword cultivator, how can you be afraid of life and death? We are born for the sword and should die for the sword." The spy of the Demon Sect shouted loudly.

Look at the correct version in the 16-9 book forum!

I was afraid that Gu Mo would regret it and make his plan fail.

"Okay!"

This statement really resonated with some sword cultivators. Of course, the disciples of Shennong Valley who were watching the excitement did not react to it.

What is born for the sword, die for the sword, people are dead, what is the point of cultivating immortals, living has more future and more possibilities.

"Let's start."

Gu Mo walked onto the arena, too lazy to talk nonsense, and then he would just kill the fly and it would be quiet.

"Humph!"

Seeing Gu Mo enter the arena, the spy of the Demon Sect also quickly entered the arena, and then the life and death barrier rose, which meant that only one person could come out alive next.

"Boy, you're dead."

When the life and death barrier enveloped the arena, the spy of the Demon Sect suddenly laughed, and then the golden elixir cultivation instantly flourished. As for the agreement just mentioned to suppress the cultivation in the foundation-building period, it had long been forgotten.

This is a life-and-death battle, who would suppress their cultivation? Naturally, they would kill the target quickly. Even if they broke their promise and lost face, so what? As long as they killed the target, they would get a huge reward.

"What!"

Seeing that the spy of the Demon Sect actually used the power of the Golden Core, everyone was a little surprised, and many sword cultivators even cursed.

Both sides suppressed their strength to the same level. Even if they were killed, it was just because their cultivation was not good enough, but this kind of naked bullying was too much.

What he said just now was so high-sounding, but he turned out to be a despicable villain.

Of course, the most angry person was Ding Shiyan. At this moment, she felt cheated. As a sword cultivator, Ding Shiyan also recognized the concept that sword cultivators live for swords and die for swords.

Therefore, even if the two sides agreed to a life-and-death battle, Ding Shiyan only advised and did not directly stop it. After all, if the two sides fought with the same strength, they would be inferior in skill if they died.

But at the moment, this kind of bullying the weak by the strong obviously violated the concept of sword cultivation.

However, the life-and-death barrier had been opened, and Ding Shiyan could not open it at all, even the elders could not, because the arena was within the range of the ancient tree.

Its barrier and the power of the ancient tree flowed. If you want to forcibly open the life-and-death barrier, you need to have the power to destroy the 5th-level ancient tree. Of course, the master of Shennong Valley has the authority to control the ancient tree, so he can open the barrier.

However, as a disciple, it is not easy for Ding Shiyan to meet the master. During this period of delay, the battle inside is probably over.

With a big gap in realm, this battle is destined to be a massacre.

"Die!"

The spy of the Demon Sect also knew that the night is long and dreams are many, so after the barrier rose, he directly took action and did not give Gu Mo any chance to ask for help.

Looking at the fierce attack of the spy of the Demon Sect, Gu Mo's expression was calm. In an instant, a golden elixir aura burst out from Gu Mo's body. At this moment, Gu Mo has begun to use the golden elixir power in his body.

"What!"

Feeling the second golden elixir aura in the field, everyone outside the field was shocked. This young man was obviously in the foundation-building stage, how could he suddenly become a golden elixir.

"Did he practice the secret method of hiding his aura?" Someone said.

"It's not a secret method to hide his aura. He is a foundation-building, but he has the power of a golden elixir in his body." Ding Shiyan, who is a golden elixir, can naturally see that Gu Mo's realm has not improved with the outbreak of the golden elixir aura, and he is still in the foundation-building stage.

This situation is not uncommon in the world of immortal cultivation. There are always cultivators who, by chance, gain power beyond their own realm, but this power is difficult to control and very dangerous.

But thinking of the current situation, it seems that there is no other choice. Using the power beyond one's own realm in the body to fight is better than waiting to die.

Gu Mo held the flying sword, poured all the golden elixir power in his body and the semi-finished killing sword intent he had comprehended into it, and then Gu Mo also injected a trace of immortal power into it.

Gu Mo, who had a 4th-level sunflower, was no longer short of immortal power, and the incarnation's current physique had reached the golden elixir level, so using a little bit of immortal power was barely enough.

As the immortal power was injected, the flying sword in Gu Mo's hand burst out with terrifying power.

"Cut the sky!"

Gu Mo looked at the horrified Demon Sect spy with indifferent eyes, and then swung the sword.

In an instant, a sword light that seemed to tear the void burst out, and under that dazzling sword light, the sword of the Demon Sect spy seemed so small.
