Chapter 369: An Extraordinary Group of People

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Being able to perfectly control the power of space not only meant that Gu Xi was comparable to an Emperor stage cultivator in this aspect. It also meant that in the future, when he faced an opponent of the same cultivation realm, he would have an absolute advantage and could even crush them!

Not only that, even when facing an opponent whose cultivation realm was higher than his, he would also be able to use the power of space to escape. His own safety factor could be said to have greatly increased!

“This is really good news.”

Gu Xi could not help but grin. Then, he controlled his mind to immerse himself in his own body and began to gradually feel the slight difference.

Under the cover of his enormous mind, he quickly felt that there seemed to be a mysterious power wandering in his body among the eight extraordinary meridians.

Not long after, he opened his eyes again and stretched out a finger to lightly draw a line in the void in front of him. Instantly, a pitch-black spatial crack appeared out of thin air.

Gu Xi’s eyes could not help but surge with wild joy. This casual drawing did not activate the slightest bit of spiritual power in his body. It was just a simple drawing.

However, it was this drawing that allowed him to do something that a cultivator of the same cultivation realm could not do. This also meant that what the System said earlier was all true!

“As long as I practice more in the future, I think there should be a lot of uses for this void essence.”

As she thought about it, a smile involuntarily appeared on the corner of Gu Xi’s mouth.

Since he had already figured out this void essence, he did not continue to stay in this demon beast space. With a thought, his body gradually disappeared.

When he opened his eyes again, he had already returned to his room.

“You’ve recovered?” Little Nine remained where she was and did not move at all. When she saw Gu Xi open his eyes, she giggled. She was not too surprised that Gu Xi had recovered so quickly.

Although she did not know what kind of secret Gu Xi had, she knew that the secret was definitely not simple. He could easily purify the trace of the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox’s bloodline in her body, and even helped the Little Golden Carp to successfully jump through the Dragon Gate. Even a fool knew that Gu Xi had his own special methods.

After following Gu Xi for so long, she had seen too many things that could be called miracles, so she was now somewhat numb to these things.

“Has anyone come?”

Gu Xi smiled slightly and glanced outside the room.

Little Nine nodded lightly. “That old fellow who called himself Gu ran came over. He said that he wanted to talk to me about some things, but I didn’t pay much attention to him, so he left.”

Hearing this, Gu Xi’s heart could not help but sink.

As expected, Elder Gu had already started to have some thoughts about Little Nine.

This time it was a polite invitation, but what about the next time?

Even if they could remain safe and sound for the next period of time, what if Elder Gu returned to the Central Plains in the future and the faction behind him found out about Little Nine’s existence?

Once that mysterious faction also became interested in Little Nine, then it would not be a good time to sit down and talk!

With the way the Central Plains treated the Four Continents, they would probably try to bring Little Nine back to the Central Plains at all costs! If they wanted to capture Little Nine, they would naturally send out powerful cultivators from their sects, and at the very least, they would need Great Saint cultivators!

“It looks like I have to raise my realm as soon as possible. It would be fine if these things didn’t happen, but if they did, a few Great Saint cultivators would come. I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to do anything and could only watch as Little Nine was taken away.”

Thinking of this, Gu Xi could not help but secretly make up his mind. After dealing with the Eastern Continent, he would definitely try his best to raise his cultivation level!

Shaking his head, Gu Xi did not think anymore. He got up and pushed open the door first. Little Nine followed behind him. The two of them came to the deck one after the other.

At this moment, there were two figures on the deck. They were Qing Zhu and Elder Gu.

The two of them greeted Gu Xi with a smile when they saw him coming.

“Looks like you’ve recovered quite well.” Elder Gu sized Gu Xi up and a trace of unnoticeable surprise flashed across his eyes.

Gu Xi nodded, “I’m just relying on some medicinal pills to recover my spiritual power. It’s better to recover as soon as possible. After all, I don’t know if there will be other Void Devouring Beast coming to cause trouble again.”

Hearing this explanation, the surprise in Elder Gu’s eyes gradually disappeared. If it was relying on the recovery pills, it would be reasonable to recover so quickly.

After all, Gu Xi’s alchemy skills were extraordinary. It was indeed very normal for him to carry some high-level recovery pills with him.

“How’s Qingluan?” Gu Xi scanned the surroundings, but he did not find Song Qingluan.

“She’s fine, it’s just that she had some bumps. She woke up earlier, so she should be taking care of Elder Yun now.”

Qing Zhu smiled faintly and looked at Little Nine behind Gu Xi, whether intentionally or not.

A divine beast that could transform was enough to surprise her.

“Is Miss Song… your Dao Partner?” Elder Gu suddenly asked.

Gu Xi was also a little stunned by the question, but he quickly shook his head.

“I have a question that I don’t know if I should ask.” Elder Gu spoke again with an unfathomable smile on his face.

Seeing this, Gu Xi could not help but feel a little wary.

This old thing! He had already said so much, how could Gu Xi stop him now?

“Elder Gu, just say it,” Gu Xi grinned and said with a fake smile.

Elder Gu nodded, and he injected spiritual energy into the spirit boat under his feet. He raised his head and looked at the room where Yun Zhiyi was. “Miss Song’s cultivation realm is not high, and it can even be said that she is no different from an ordinary person. But why would Brother Yun take her as his disciple?”

Elder Gu asked nonchalantly, but in his heart, he was looking forward to Gu Xi’s answer.

Ever since the matter of the Void Devouring Beast came to an end, he realized that Gu Xi and the others were not ordinary. A Great Saint level spirit array master, Yun Zhiyi, a high-tier spirit array master, Gu Xi with high cultivation and pill refining talent, plus Song Qingluan who could be said to have no cultivation at all… Now that there was the transformation of a Nine-tailed Celestial Fox, it was difficult for him not to be interested in the origins of Gu Xi and the others and the secrets behind them.

Among the four of them, only Song Qingluan looked ordinary, but his intuition told him that Song Qingluan might not be as ordinary as she looked!

There must be some extraordinary secrets behind her!

“Elder Gu, you worry too much. Qingluan is just a cousin of a distant relative of mine. I happened to meet her on a trip with my Master, so I brought her along to see the world and gain some experience,” Gu Xi explained without changing his expression.
