409: Void Tower
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for completing the mission. The Void Tower has been issued."
Gu Liangyuan ignored the System's prompt and watched Di Tian enter the Thunder Marsh. Gu Liangyuan took a step and followed closely behind him.
He had killed countless people along the way, many of whom were more powerful than Di Tian.
Yet, these people all died, while only Di Tian had continued to live.
Di Tian was Gu Liangyuan's first enemy since he stepped into the Cultivation World, besides the Child of Destiny, Ye Fan.
During this period, Gu Liangyuan had countless opportunities to kill him, but for various reasons, he did not take action.
By the time he wanted to kill Di Tian, Di Tian had repeatedly escaped.
If he didn't kill Di Tian, his heart would not be at peace!
Following Di Tian's footsteps into the depths of the Thunder Marsh, though in deep water, Gu Liangyuan saw countless bolts of lightning crisscrossing within it.
These lightning bolts formed a large net, creating a special Domain.
The Three-legged Golden Crow, into which Di Tian had transformed, had precisely entered this Domain and disappeared without a trace.
Gu Liangyuan's eyes moved, and he used his Detection Divine Ability, beginning to search for Di Tian's information.
In a certain corner, a golden light flashed:
Name: Di Tian
Affiliation: Former Master of Taiyi Holy Land
Cultivation: Mahayana Middle Stage
Spiritual Root: Low Grade Fire Spiritual Root
Laws: Law of Fire, Law of Thunder, Law of Wind
Origin: Origin of Fire
Physique: Half-Demon Physique
Comprehension Ability: Mirroring Others (His Comprehension Ability's upper limit depends on his enemy's Comprehension Ability. If his enemy's Comprehension Ability is strong, he will also grow rapidly until it matches his enemy's Comprehension Ability.)
Luck: Shuiguan Jie'e (The Three Great Emperors of Ancient Gods: Tianguan Blessing, Diguan Xie'e, Shuiguan Jie'e. Tianguan Blessing brings Luck and great fortune. Diguan Xie'e reduces Karma. Shuiguan Jie'e turns misfortune into good fortune.)
Fate: Wolf-Gazing Eagle-Watching (He will definitely betray his Master after joining a faction.)
Stronger with Each Setback (Never gives up when encountering difficulties)
...
Looking at Di Tian's dense System panel, Gu Liangyuan felt a bit dazed.
He remembered that Di Tian's System panel was not like this before.
Gu Liangyuan knew that Luck could be changed. Those proficient in the Dao of Luck would try to increase their own Luck.
Or perhaps, through a fortuitous encounter, they would achieve great enlightenment.
Gu Liangyuan had also seen people whose System panels changed, for example, Oriental Heng, whom Gu Liangyuan personally cultivated from a light gold panel to a pure gold panel.
But Gu Liangyuan had never seen such a drastic change as Di Tian's.
Especially the 'Shuiguan Jie'e' Luck entry, which ignited a fire in Gu Liangyuan's heart.
What kind of person uses a Luck entry similar to mine!
He flicked his finger, and a red light flashed between heaven and earth. The Nine Kill Sword shot directly towards Di Tian's back.
But just as the Nine Kill Sword was about to pierce Di Tian, Di Tian's Luck panel suddenly disappeared.
Gu Liangyuan unleashed his powerful Divine Sense and discovered a broken teleportation array at the center of this thunderous Domain.
Gu Liangyuan could deduce from the array patterns that this was a teleportation array leading to the Chaos space.
Di Tian had escaped into the Chaos through this array.
However, Gu Liangyuan was not flustered in the slightest.
Because he had obtained a trace of Di Tian's aura from the kunlun mirror fragment.
In the Grand Pure Legacy, a Great Divine Power called 'Seven Arrows with a Nail Head' was recorded!
This technique was a curse, requiring only a wisp of the target's aura to be cast, regardless of distance.
However, casting this technique was not without cost; it required the consumption of Luck power.
But for Gu Liangyuan, whose Luck value was maxed out, this was not a problem at all.
Spending some Luck to kill Di Tian was worth it!
However, this Seven Arrows with a Nail Head technique required twenty-one days, and Gu Liangyuan did not intend to use it in this Realm.
Looking at the broken teleportation array, Gu Liangyuan flicked his finger, and a golden light shot out.
Bang!
With an explosion, the array was completely destroyed.
After doing all this, Gu Liangyuan extended his Divine Sense to carefully search this space.
"Eh, why is there a place where my Divine Sense can't enter?"
He muttered to himself, then took a step and arrived at the place where his Divine Sense was difficult to penetrate.
This place was at the very center of the lightning, with various divine thunders crackling and coursing over Gu Liangyuan's body.
Each bolt of divine thunder was no weaker than a full-power strike from a Peak Mahayana cultivator.
But Gu Liangyuan allowed these divine thunders to course over his body, only feeling a tingling sensation, without any pain.
Fixing his gaze forward, Gu Liangyuan discovered a skeleton within a purple sphere of lightning ahead.
Beside the skeleton, there were also some Dragon scales.
This skeleton was human-like, with a human face and a Dragon body.
Name: Skeleton of the Thunder God
Origin: In ancient times, there was an Innate being, born from heaven and earth. As soon as the Thunder God was born, he wielded the authority of thunder. After his death, his skeleton remained intact.
Effect: Upon Fusion into the body, one can gain partial control over the authority of thunder, and also comprehend the Dao of Thunder more quickly.
Good stuff.
He collected it.
Di Tian didn't collect it because his cultivation couldn't withstand these lightning bolts, but for Gu Liangyuan, it wasn't too difficult.
He easily retrieved the Skeleton of the Thunder God.
However, Gu Liangyuan did not intend to use it for himself. Once his Chaos Physique grew, it would be no worse than the Skeleton of the Thunder God.
Gu Liangyuan thought it over and remembered Qianqiu.
She was originally a lightning Spiritual Root, and this skeleton was perfectly suitable.
As Gu Liangyuan put away the Skeleton of the Thunder God, the lightning in the Thunder Marsh also lost its sustenance and gradually weakened.
Judging by its appearance, it wouldn't be long before it completely disappeared.
However, all of this was no longer relevant to Gu Liangyuan.
With a hand seal, a light door appeared in the Void Realm.
Gu Liangyuan stepped in, and when he reappeared, he was back in the Yaochi Sacred Ground.
Returning to the Kong Sang Realm, Gu Liangyuan did not linger too long in Yaochi before taking the Yao Sisters to the Dayuan Imperial Palace.
At this moment, Qianqiu was in the Imperial Palace, constantly reviewing memorials.
She faintly sensed something, slowly looked up, and immediately saw Gu Liangyuan smiling at her.
"Master!"
Qianqiu excitedly called out, and then her figure shattered.
Clearly, the Qianqiu who was reviewing memorials was just one of her Clones.
As the Clone shattered, Qianqiu quickly walked out of her cultivation chamber:
"Master, didn't you say you'd come in November? Why are you here so early?"
As she spoke, she naturally stepped forward and hugged Gu Liangyuan, taking a deep sniff with a look of intoxication on her face.
Qianqiu's natural action, however, flustered Gu Liangyuan.
Is it this natural now?
Gu Liangyuan vaguely felt that something was wrong. He had clearly been trying to get Qianqiu and the others to focus on their Cultivation.
Why did it feel like he was gradually being conquered now?
Although he had many thoughts in his mind, Gu Liangyuan did not push Qianqiu away:
"What, not welcome?"
Qianqiu stood on her tiptoes and pressed her face against Gu Liangyuan's ear:
"Of course you're welcome! I just didn't expect Master to be so eager to reward me."
Gu Liangyuan: ...
Why did he suddenly feel like he was being teased?
If it were in the past, Gu Liangyuan would have already reprimanded her to assert his authority as a Master.
But thinking of his plan to sow discord between the two girls, Gu Liangyuan silently endured it.
Only by letting the two girls taste the sweetness would they continue to fight.
Qianqiu saw all of this and a look of joy appeared in her eyes.
This hesitant, yet welcoming demeanor was quite endearing.
And so, she pulled Gu Liangyuan directly towards the cultivation room.
