Chapter 18 Returning Home
After dinner, Gu Yuan came to the Martial Arts Pavilion for the fourth time and did not stay long.
After returning the two secret books that he had already memorized by heart, for the second time, he selected an Earth-level low-level light skill called Phantom Clone.
This light skill is an advanced version of Phantom Step, with the effect of creating a clone to confuse the enemy.
It has the same effect as the clone shadow Qinggong obtained by Ye Chen from Tianmeng Ancient Land in the original work.
It's just that the focus is different.
Although the avatars also have the effect of confusing the enemy, they focus more on actual combat. Each clone has 50% of the attack power of the main body.
And attack power means it is easier to identify.
Phantom clones focus on running away. Without taking the initiative to attack, it is basically difficult to tell which one is the real one.
The most important thing is that Gu Yuan himself has practiced the phantom step and its advanced version, the phantom clone, which is naturally very handy.
It is said that there is no sun or moon in the mountains, and it is absolutely true.
Two months were lost inadvertently while practicing hard in ancient times.
At this time, Gu Yuan had been a member of the Feitian Demon Sect for more than a year, and his height had grown a lot again, reaching 1.65 meters.
The water chestnut contour on the face becomes more and more obvious.
The strength has undergone earth-shaking changes.
After these two months of practice, Gu Yuan has completely mastered the phantom clone, and has also reached the sixth level of the third-turn heavy energy skill. His basic strength has increased a lot.
Standing up and walking out of the room, Gu Yuan looked at the thick snow in the courtyard and said to himself: "There is still one month left before we will officially take over the sect's mission. Let's go back. There will be no more in the future." So much time.”
Xueling Town, where Gu Yuan's hometown is located, is located in the north of the Black Dragon Empire and close to the Ice Crystal Empire.
It is a hundred thousand miles away from Feitian Demon Sect. Even if Gu Yuan has now cultivated into a phantom clone, he can reach 350 meters away in a single glance. It will take more than ten days to travel during the day and restore his true energy at night. If there is a delay in the middle, maybe half a month will pass. .
Just going back and forth like this, a month is definitely not enough.
So he planned to go to the Feitian Demon Sect's animal training ground and rent a half-demon horse for transportation. As for the flying monster, he would not consider it. That thing requires spiritual stones, and he couldn't afford to rent it.
It coincides with the New Year.
There are many disciples of the Feitian Demon Sect returning home. From time to time, half-demon horses gallop out of the animal training ground at the foot of the mountain. Disciples from the inner and outer sects come and go frequently.
After asking for a month's leave from the elders of the outer sect, Gu Yuan put on the red flame sword and hurried to the animal training ground, intending to rent a half-demon horse.
"Hey, it's you, Junior Brother Gu!"
Suddenly a clear voice came from behind.
Gu Yuan turned his head to you, saw the appearance of the visitor, and asked in surprise: "Sister, what can I do for you?"
The person named Gu Yuan was a girl, no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, with fair skin and beauty. She was the female disciple of the inner sect who stood next to Elder Li when the mass grave trial started.
Standing next to her were two young men and women wearing outer disciple uniforms. The man among them was actually one of the four people who entered the school together with Gu Yuan a year ago.
The girl smiled sweetly and said: "I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Ling Xue, and I am Ling Feng's sister. These two are my cousin Ling Hua and cousin Ling Zhu. You two, please call me Senior Brother Gu. ”
Gu Yuan suddenly realized that it was the Ling brothers and sisters who were in retreat and breaking through to the Star Realm.
"Senior Brother Gu."×2
Ling Hua and Ling Zhu greeted Gu Yuan. Among them, the girl named Ling Zhu was better. In this world where masters come first, calling Gu Yuan senior brother didn't have any psychological burden.
But Ling Hua felt aggrieved.
He vaguely remembered that he and a few other acquaintances secretly laughed at each other for being country bumpkins.
Now a year has passed and everyone is already an inner disciple. But he was still lingering at the tenth level of the Qi Training Realm.
It's simply irritating people.
Gu Yuan saw Ling Hua's reaction, and while feeling amused, he politely replied, "Junior Brother Ling Hua, Junior Sister Ling Zhu."
"Junior Brother Gu, are you planning to go home, right?" Ling Xue suddenly asked.
"Well, I plan to go back."
There is nothing to hide about this, because everyone who comes here intends to go home.
"We also plan to go home. If you don't mind, come with us."
"This is not good."
"What's wrong with this? Our home is in Nanlin City, less than a thousand miles away from your Xueling Town. And I have the Inner Sect Deacon token given by my eldest brother, which allows me to rent flights below Level 4 for free. Monster, three people ride on a flying monster, and four people ride on a monster. The left and right are only in the same position. If they are together, it will be safer on the road. "
Gu Yuan was not surprised that Ling Xue knew about Xueling Town. After all, Senior Brother Ling personally presided over the identity census of their new generation of disciples. However, it seemed that the other party was intentionally making friends or wooing him. It happened that he also had plans to move his tavern to Nanlin City, so he would have to ask the other party for help in the future.
Although Xuetie Town was the place where I grew up, there were always warriors coming and going to fight and kill innocent people, which was really too dangerous.
Nanlin City is much safer.
At least it is intimidated by the strong ones in the Star Realm. There are not many warriors below the Star Realm who dare to take action in the city.
"Then there will be more Senior Sister Ling."
Ling Xue was very happy when she saw Gu Yuan agreeing, because his elder brother had confessed before retreating that Gu Yuan was a genius with great potential, and his future achievements would not be lower than those of Murong Qingcheng and Mo Yan.
Although the Ling family is the first family in Nanlin City, the strongest one is only an ancestor in the early stage of the Star Realm. It will be beneficial to them in the future if they make friends with such a genius.
In this way, Gu Yuan got on the flying monster rented by Ling Xue, and the four of them embarked on the road back home.
Along the way, Gu Yuan inadvertently proposed the idea of moving the restaurant to Nanlin City with his parents, and wanted Senior Sister Ling to help find a suitable place.
Ling Xue agreed without saying a word. He also offered to pick up Gu Yuan's parents by the way.
After explaining to their father and mother, although they were reluctant to part with the small restaurant they had run for many years, they were still very happy to be able to move into Nanlin City.
That night, Gu's father sold the restaurant out at a low price.
Gu Yuan gave Gu's father another storage ring and asked the couple to clean it up briefly.
Early the next morning, a group of six people arrived at Nanlin City on a flying monster.
I have to say that the Ling family is very efficient in doing things.
They arrived at Nanlin City in the morning.
In the afternoon, someone delivered the property deed.
The price is also very reasonable, thirty thousand taels of gold.
Not too high, not too low.
It also comes with a spacious backyard that can be used for martial arts practice.
