There are countless geniuses in the world of cultivation, but only my junior sister Sha Diao

Chapter 1223 Young Genius

Gu Xia also took a lot of effort to succeed this time.

Speaking of which, she also has to thank the founder of Xuanming Sect.

Before she and Li Tingyun waved goodbye to the master, the other party smiled and said that he had given them each a gift.

As the future heir of Xuanming Sect, Li Tingyun naturally obtained the inheritance of their sect.

Gu Xia didn't expect that the master would be so generous.

What he gave her was a formation.

——It is called 'Nine Netherworld'.

The Nine Netherworld Formation, just the name sounds very ferocious.

It is said that this formation was created by the founder of Xuanming Sect when he was eighteen years old.

With the help of this formation, he, with the cultivation level of the early stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, fought against a great demon who had been in the Void Refinement Realm for hundreds of years, and finally succeeded in trapping and killing it.

It was precisely because of this that he became famous in the world of cultivation.

You know, compared to sword cultivators who are both capable of fighting and carrying, formation cultivators like the founder of Xuanming Sect who are thin-skinned and fragile, even if you look at the entire cultivation world for hundreds of years, there are few who can reach such a high level.

Young geniuses are nothing more than this.

This was what Li Tingyun told her later.

Gu Xia originally thought it was just an ordinary formation, but he didn't expect that there was such a past behind it.

When Li Tingyun learned about it and told her the story, there was an unconcealable light in the boy's dark eyes.

This was the first time she saw the other person look so worthless.

Yes, after all, as a direct disciple, it is normal to admire his own master.

Li Tingyun almost became jealous.

However, what he got was not bad either. The inheritance naturally included other formations left by the ancestors, so he didn't think it was anything special.

Gu Xia’s first reaction was: Oh shit, pie falling from the sky?

The second reaction was: Damn, the pie actually fell on my head?

She knelt down in her heart to the founder of Xuanming Sect and almost typed 666 on the public screen.

This gift from the ancestor is just what a timely rain.

Therefore, after some thought, Gu Xia decided to take a gamble and keep the Demon Lord here.

However, this matter is not without difficulties.

Given the gap in realm between her and the Demon Lord, it is not easy to leave one behind to undergo the tribulation. Moreover, if she is not careful, the other party will notice it, causing the Demon Lord to be alert and on guard.

The key is--

Back then, the founder wasn't so reckless as to bravely endure the tribulation, right?

The realm gap was too large. In order to ensure that the Demon Lord could be successfully killed in the formation, Gu Xia directly used his own essence and blood as a guide to increase its power even more until he could trap the opponent.

It can be said that nearly 90% of Gu Xia’s spiritual power was now pressed into the entire Nine Netherworld Yellow Springs Formation, and his sea of consciousness was almost drained out.

The magic circle that can cross borders to fight the enemy is even more powerful.

This is also the strength of the formation created by this ancestor. As long as the person who sets up the formation can hold on, he will be able to fight even against a stronger opponent.

Whether you can succeed or not depends entirely on yourself, but using essence and blood as a guide is not without side effects.

After this matter is over, Gu Xia estimated that he would enter a period of weakness.

The details are still unclear, so she said that one of her and the Demon Lord must die today.

Of course, she never fights a battle without preparation. Since she doesn't want to die, then the one who should die must be someone else.

Special grandma's.

She has paid such a huge price, and when the time comes, she must let the Demon Lord know who is the son and who is the father.

Although Gu Xia usually looks lazy, she is a bit crazy. As long as you don't cross her bottom line, everything will be fine. Otherwise, even nine oxen may not be able to pull her back.

Elder Zhong Yi had discovered this when he was training her. He once complained to Fang Jinxing and was worried that she might be beaten to death if she went out in the future.

It wasn't until later that I realized that it was a good thing that Gu Xia didn't beat anyone to death.

So I just let her go.

who cares.

It is better to have your unlucky child beaten by others than to have your child beaten by others.

Anyway, the purpose of their sword cultivation can be summed up in one sentence -

Just do it and it's done.

*

The Demon Lord was furious inside the formation, while Gu Xia stood outside very calmly, biting the pill in his mouth to continuously absorb spiritual energy and heal the wounds on his body.

The essence and blood of a cultivator are particularly important. In addition, she was beaten half to death by the Demon Lord. If she had not had enough hemostatic pills, she would have lost too much blood.

Even so, Gu Xia's face was as pale as a ghost.

The Demon Lord naturally did not miss this scene.

Even as an illiterate who didn't understand the formation, he quickly realized that Gu Xia couldn't have successfully pinned him here without paying any price.

Thinking of this, the Demon Lord immediately began to look around, intending to find a relatively weak place to break the formation and rush out.

By then, Gu Xia will definitely be dead!

He said it!

This brat is done for.

Gu Xia raised his eyebrows slightly.

Oh wow.

To be honest, after several battles with the Demon Lord, it is no exaggeration to say that she knows what the other party is going to do as soon as he sticks out his butt.

Of course, this alone cannot do anything to him. Moreover, although the formation is stable at the moment, the one trapped inside is the Demon Lord. If Gu Xia does not keep a close eye on him, with his cultivation level in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, it is only a matter of time before he breaks free.

However, Gu Xia had never intended to rely entirely on the formation to get rid of him from the beginning.

All she needed was to consume the other party's patience and strength in advance.

Even the calmest person will gradually lose their mind if they are trapped in a killing array and cannot escape. What's more, the demons are fickle to begin with. Given the Demon Lord's personality, he probably wants to grab her and cut her into pieces.

Seeing the turbulence within the formation again, Gu Xia, who had recovered some of his spiritual power, moved his fingers a few times and smiled: "So irritable, Demon Lord?"

"In that case—" her voice stretched out a little, "then I'll show you something interesting."

The Demon Lord glared at her, "You——"

Before he could finish his next words, the formation began to shake, and the lines on it seemed to come alive. The blood-red color slowly flowed, and a strong murderous intent burst out in an instant.

Streams of magma poured down from the sky above, fire splashed everywhere, and large chunks of rubble fell, causing anyone who touched them to suffer skin and flesh to be torn apart.

The Demon Lord didn't expect that being bounced like a ball was just the appetizer. When he was distracted for a moment, his sleeves were melted by the magma, and his skin crackled as it came into contact with the scorching temperature.

Then came a piercing pain, and the smell of burning flesh filled the nose.

He didn't bother to look at Gu Xia anymore and quickly dodged to the side.

However, there were flames and lava flowing everywhere, mixed with flying rocks. Even if you wanted to hide, you couldn't find a good place.

"Don't worry."

Gu Xia looked at him with a smile, "It's not over yet, where are we going now?"

The girl snapped her fingers lightly, and her hand gestures changed slightly. The ground in the formation cracked, and a stream of water gushed out instantly.

Once touched, one will be immediately pulled in. The sharp water flow is like a knife, cutting the body inch by inch, separating the flesh and bones, and the cold chill penetrates into the bone marrow.

The Demon Lord wanted to escape, but he couldn't.

He was horrified to find that the water flow that appeared inexplicably was extremely strange. Wherever it passed, people could not hang in the air. Instead, they would be dragged down by a force that came from nowhere and pressed firmly into the water flow.

A feeling of suffocation and severe pain hit his heart at the same time. Compared to the pain in his body, the Demon Lord was shocked and angry in his heart.

Damn it.

What kind of weird formation is this?

Even with his level of cultivation, he couldn't easily break free. The boiling magma fell on his body, and white smoke rose from the water surface. The scene was like being in purgatory.

The Demon Lord opened his mouth and just uttered a word, "Gu... Gululu..."

But the next second, his head was forced into the water, leaving only a string of bubbles gurgling out.

And an exceptionally shrill scream.

"what--"

Damn, that's boiling water! !
