Empress: My husband is too strong, I can only lie down and relax.

Chapter 195 One Peach, One Saint, Refining Ruins Heavenly Tribulation!

"In short, if you don't have any companions, why don't we go together? It would be good to have someone to look after you."

Gu Jiancheng added, "As for your naturally poisonous body, it's not that scary."

After saying that, Gu Jiancheng raised his hand and released Yin-Yang Qi, which surrounded the woman in white.

Although it was just a wisp of air, it could still easily block the white-clad woman's innate poisonous gas.

"I wonder what I call the girl?"

Immediately, Gu Jiancheng asked.

"You can just call me Miss Hua."

The woman in white smiled, seemingly much more cheerful. "Thank you for accepting me."

"All the sect disciples who were with me before are dead."

"Am I the one who has let them down, forced to watch them perish without being able to do anything about it?"

"It's alright, let's go!" Gu Jiancheng just smiled, then raised his hand, enveloped the two of them, and headed straight for the valley.

"Big brother, you're finally back!"

As soon as the three landed in the valley, everyone came to greet them.

Chen Xianzhi also looked Gu Jiancheng up and down with extreme anxiety. Only after confirming that Gu Jiancheng was not injured did she breathe a sigh of relief.

"Big brother, did you really go to the exchange event?"

"Can he come back?"

"Are you all hoping for my death?" Feng Yunxiao glared at everyone, then said, "The three major sects did indeed have ulterior motives, but thanks to Brother Gu's powerful methods, we left after killing three true disciples."

"Kill three true disciples?"

For a moment, everyone looked at Gu Jiancheng with shock and awe.

The true disciples of the three super sects, whose cultivation levels are all at the half-step Dao Integration Realm, were able to kill three of them and escape unscathed. What kind of combat power is that?!

Are they in the top 100 on the local rankings?

"Oh, by the way, let me introduce you to a new friend!"

Feng Yunxiao looked at the woman in white and said, "Little Miss Hua, you are a descendant of the Fiendish Butcher, just like us!"

"Little Flower Girl? Could she be the daughter of Flower Poison Butterfly?"

Everyone was surprised, but they quickly guessed Hua Xiaoniang's identity.

"Yes, it's nice to meet you all!"

Hua Xiaoniang bowed slightly.

Perhaps because of their similar backgrounds, she quickly joined in the laughter and conversation with everyone.

At this moment, Gu Jiancheng handed the tattered peach pit he had exchanged back to Chen Xianzhi.

"The exchange meeting didn't yield many results, but this should be pretty good."

"Huh?" Sure enough, Chen Xianzhi's eyes lit up the moment she saw the peach pit.

She quickly took the peach pit, examined it carefully several times, and even smelled it under her nose before saying seriously, "Sect Master, this is no ordinary peach pit, but a seed of an ancient peach!"

"Its quality has probably reached the Saint rank, or even higher!"

"Really? Is it possible to plant it?" Gu Jiancheng feigned surprise.

In fact, he already knew about the peach pit through the system; he just wanted to test Chen Xianzhi's judgment.

Chen Xianzhi did not disappoint him; relying solely on his talent and experience, he was almost always right.

"It's difficult. Although the peach pit wasn't fundamentally damaged and still faintly contains sacred energy, it will probably require luck, extremely high-quality soil, and a very long time to nurture it."

"However, if it can truly nurture an ancient sacred peach tree, its value will be extremely high!" Chen Xianzhi frowned, but still couldn't hide his excitement.

Clearly, this peach pit was the most precious ancient variety she had ever seen!

If we could cultivate it, it would be extremely satisfying.

“Then you can keep it. I’ll take care of the special soil.” Gu Jiancheng smiled.

Regardless, Gu Jiancheng was determined to plant this ancient sacred peach tree.

The system information already indicates that once the Ancient Sacred Peach bears fruit, a single peach can allow a half-saint to break through to the Saint realm!

With one peach and one saint, one can imagine that when that day comes, he will be able to mass-produce saint-level experts!

The peach pit, obtained merely from an exchange meeting, actually concealed an extraordinary opportunity!

However, the special soil that Chen Xianzhi mentioned is also extremely rare.

He checked his current system store and found that the highest quality soil he could find was only at the peak of the pseudo-saint level.

There are simply not enough to cultivate peach pits.

Perhaps the only options are to continue searching, or wait for a breakthrough in one's cultivation level to see if more shop treasures can be unlocked.

But even if the system does have suitable conditions, my own system affinity points probably won't be enough to redeem them.

In short, mass-producing Saint Realm experts is currently just a wishful thinking on Gu Jiancheng's part.

"Sect Leader Gu, is that mirror really unusual? You're not just trying to comfort me, are you?"

At this moment, the young woman suddenly came over and asked.

Feng Yunxiao also turned his gaze over at this moment, which also puzzled him.

He really couldn't see anything mysterious about the ancient mirror.

"Of course, I'm not trying to comfort you."

"Hold on."

Gu Jiancheng smiled and then directly instructed the system to consume affection points to repair the ancient mirror.

Compared to the Myriad Manifestations Cauldron, this ancient mirror is only a top-grade item at the Ruins stage, so it is not difficult to repair.

When Gu Jiancheng took out the ancient mirror, which showed almost no signs of damage and was surrounded by a dazzling light, Feng Yunxiao was completely dumbfounded.

"Brother Gu, is this Hua Xiaoniang's ancient mirror? How is this possible?"

“Nothing is impossible. These hands of mine can turn the rotten into the miraculous!” Gu Jiancheng tossed the ancient mirror to him and then sat down to cultivate.

"Let's train! We'll set off first thing tomorrow morning!"

The group exchanged glances but asked no further questions.

But they all secretly held Gu Jiancheng in much higher esteem.

This person is truly too mysterious and powerful.

The night passed quickly, and Gu Jiancheng opened his eyes, a dazzling light shimmering in them like a galaxy.

Now, almost all of the Crimson Storm energy he had previously absorbed has been refined, and the energy accumulated in his dantian is vast and boundless. The bottleneck in his realm that had never appeared before has finally emerged!

However, Gu Jiancheng also realized that although he could break through to the Refinement Realm at any time, once the barrier shattered, the terrifying energy he had accumulated would burst forth instantly.

This might attract a heavenly calamity!

Only then did Gu Jiancheng understand why his cultivation was strangely stuck here.

Because his Refining Void Realm will be different from others; only when a cultivator advances to the Dao Integration Realm will they be able to attract a Heavenly Tribulation.

And he, in the Refining Ruins Realm, will have to face it!

"Brother Gu, there's movement coming from the ancient city!"

At this moment, Feng Yunxiao, who had gone ahead to gather information, descended from outside the valley. He took a deep breath and said, "The three major sects are even more despicable than I imagined!"

"They not only plundered the Void Spirit Pearls of all cultivators, but also forced cultivators from sects not under their command to swallow Soul Devouring Pearls, wanting to use them as cannon fodder to pave a bloody path for themselves to enter the boundary!"

"What!?" Gu Jiancheng was also shocked upon hearing this.

These three sects are truly shameless, with absolutely no bottom line!
