Chapter 1284 He really can extend the life of Si Huo City!
"Thud!"
As everyone stared in disbelief at the translucent flower, a sound like a bubble bursting suddenly rang out.
Followed by.
The core of the Holy Light disappeared before everyone's eyes.
"what happened?"
"What happened? Where is the Holy Light Core?"
"I wasn't hallucinating just now, right? It definitely wasn't a hallucination, was it?"
"I think I see it! The seed has turned into a flower again, and the Holy Light Core has been successfully revived!"
The moment the core of the Holy Light disappeared, it immediately triggered a heart-wrenching wail.
They did know why the core of the Holy Light disappeared; it was because the time for the support of Following Heaven and Responding to Time had come. After all, no matter how strong Following Heaven and Responding to Time was, it could only last for an hour at most, and now that hour was up.
What they found truly unbelievable was that they were unsure of what they had seen before the core of the Holy Light disappeared.
"Envoy Gu... Envoy Gu, you... you just... just now... revived that seed with the Holy Wax Stone?" Lord Si Huo couldn't help but ask, and everyone else's eyes also fell on Gu Xiu.
Their feelings at that moment were very complicated.
She both hoped for a positive answer from Gu Xiu and feared that his answer would bring even deeper despair.
Fortunately.
This internal struggle finally transformed into overwhelming joy after Gu Xiu nodded.
"Yes."
"Just now I opened twenty-six pieces of sacred wax stone in succession and reviveed that seed. According to my deduction, if those twenty-six pieces of sacred wax stone were used on the core of the sacred light in Sihuo City, it could probably extend the life of the core of the sacred light in Sihuo City by more than five years."
Gu Xiu's voice was firm and unquestionable.
But these words plunged the scene into a deathly silence once again.
next moment.
"It's true! It's actually true!"
"He can distinguish the quality of holy wax stones! Our Sihuo City is saved!"
"The core of the Holy Light has already degenerated into a seed, yet it can still grow back. Unheard of, unheard of at all! Hahaha!"
The cheers erupted, and everyone in the hall was overjoyed. Some cheered and jumped for joy, while others wept with happiness.
The official from the Sacred Fire Palace stared blankly, muttering repeatedly, "This is impossible," "This is fake," "Absolutely impossible," before shouting:
"This is all fake. What we just tried was only the Holy Light Core that followed the will of Heaven. The real Holy Light Core will fail just the same way!"
He absolutely refused to believe that Gu Xiu possessed such ability, but no one took his words seriously, after all, the twenty-six Saintly Light Cores of the Void Refinement stage had already proven Gu Xiu's strength. Of course, regardless of belief or not, everyone was still somewhat uneasy.
Gu Xiu didn't keep them in suspense any longer: "Lord of Si Huo City, may I now enter the Si Huo Palace?"
"Of course!" City Lord Si Huo nodded repeatedly. "Special Envoy Gu, would you like to rest, or...?"
"No need, let's go now." Gu Xiu shook his head.
"Alright!" Lord Si Huo readily agreed and immediately selected five more people to travel together.
The Si Huo Hall enshrines the true form of the core of the Holy Light, so naturally not everyone is qualified to enter. Although these people have basically been questioned by the Legalist School of Governance, the number of people must be limited in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong.
Ultimately, the candidates chosen by the City Lord of Si Huo were herself, Lin Qingyan, Wenren Guanchao, Dugu Huai, and a civil official named Yin Songnian.
Meanwhile, Gu Xiu...
Besides Shi Siling, who always followed him, there was also Pei Yanzhou.
His request for Pei Yanzhou's help surprised many people, after all, this swindler had previously plunged everyone into despair, and if it weren't for the Yin Yang School's timely and timely verification, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
However, since Gu Xiu specifically requested it, no one naturally refused. Some clever ones even suggested, without Gu Xiu even having to speak, that someone quickly release Xue Wuyai, who was still hanging at the city gate.
Gu Xiu naturally did not refuse, and Lin Qingyan even cast a grateful glance at Gu Xiu.
Of course, Xue Wuyai didn't need to help with breaking the Sacred Wax Stone, so they went to the Si Huo Palace before Xue Wuyai was fully released. On the way, Dugu Huai stayed close to Gu Xiu, very curious about him, and asked him questions about the Sacred Wax Stone from time to time.
Listening to his questions, Gu Xiu understood that this Dugu Huai was actually researching Sacred Wax Stones, and even knew that Sacred Wax Stones were not inherently good or bad, but rather constantly cycling between destruction and rebirth.
However, that's all there is to it.
The real challenge lies in discerning the potential within the ever-changing sacred wax stone, and precisely ensuring that it is in a favorable position when broken open.
Gu Xiu didn't hide anything from Dugu Huai when he asked him questions.
When Dugu Huai heard that Gu Xiu had actually managed to penetrate three-tenths of the sacred wax stone's outer layer using his divine soul power, he exclaimed in disbelief. Not only him, but also the City Lord of Si Huo and Wenren Guanchao were all incredulous.
Everyone was secretly speculating about just how strong Gu Xiu's soul power was.
While everyone's attention was focused on Gu Xiu, Pei Yanzhou, who was following behind Gu Xiu, was still somewhat dazed.
He thought he was doomed.
Unexpectedly, things took a turn for the better. Not only did nothing go wrong, but Gu Xiu even asked him to help. The twenty-six pieces of sacred wax stone that Gu Xiu had tested were the ones he helped Gu Xiu break through the wax skin with his Inch-Breaking Divine Power.
However, this time he had no resentment; on the contrary, he was filled with gratitude towards Gu Xiu.
The ability to remain unharmed even when broken is not a unique skill; it can even be done by a fifth-level expert of the Mo family's divine path. Therefore, in his view, Gu Xiu was giving him a chance for a new life.
"arrive."
Soon, the group reached the top floor of the Si Huo Hall. Similar to the Wuwei Hall, a statue of the beginning of the year was placed in the center of the top floor, and outside the statue was also the Mo family's Starry Sky Divine Realm.
However, unlike the last time at the Wuwei Hall,
Last time, when Gu Xiu went to the core of Saint Mang, Zhong Boyuan led the way, which was equivalent to sneaking across the border. This time, with the City Lord of Si Huo and Wenren Guanchao, two half-saints, personally leading the way, the process was naturally simple, and they successfully crossed the range of the Starry Sky Divine Domain without any surprises or dangers.
Upon arrival, the five people, including the City Lord of Si Huo, spontaneously separated and stood around Gu Xiu.
However, while they reacted quickly, Shi Siling reacted even faster, standing behind Gu Xiu early on, watching them warily. It seemed that if they made any rash moves against Gu Xiu, she would attack without hesitation.
The group of people, including Si Huo Gong, were somewhat surprised and couldn't help but take another look at Shi Si Ling.
"Let's begin."
Gu Xiu didn't delay any longer. He nodded to Pei Yanzhou and then casually took out a piece of holy wax stone that was half a person tall.
Next, Pei Yanzhou took action and drilled a hole in the sacred wax stone.
After all, it wasn't necessary to completely penetrate; scoring two points was enough. For a non-aggressive semi-saint like Pei Yanzhou, this was naturally not difficult. In less than a quarter of an hour, Pei Yanzhou finished, and that was only because he was being cautious when facing the true source of holy light.
"Special Envoy Gu!"
Upon hearing the call, Gu Xiu, who was already prepared, instantly invaded the giant net of divine soul power within it.
He then raised his hand and summoned the Immortal-Crossing Sword instantly.
next moment.
Without the slightest hesitation, he thrust his sword towards the sacred wax stone!
This scene left everyone present dumbfounded. They never expected Gu Xiu to be so decisive. If they didn't know that Gu Xiu had no reason to harm Si Huo City, they would probably have stopped Gu Xiu from acting so decisively.
Everyone instinctively held their breath.
Dugu Huai was extremely curious.
His eyes were fixed on the sword Gu Xiu had handed him.
On the way here, thanks to Gu Xiu's openness, he already understood the difficulties of obtaining the Holy Wax Stone.
It requires not only a sufficiently powerful spiritual force to penetrate.
It is also necessary to choose the moment containing the vitality amidst the ever-changing circumstances to shatter the sacred wax stone.
He couldn't match Gu Xiu's level of spiritual power, but he could at least understand it.
How to choose the desired outcome amidst such rapid changes is what Dugu Huai can't figure out.
The next moment, Dugu Huai's eyes widened suddenly.
"time!"
"This is... the power of time!"
He finally understood what Gu Xiu was relying on. His seemingly ordinary sword strike carried a time power that was difficult for ordinary people to understand. At the moment the sword was thrust out, the two ever-changing sides of the Sacred Wax Stone began to slow down.
finally.
The transformation completely stopped the instant the Immortal-Crossing Sword arrived in front of him.
"Click!"
With a crisp sound, the half-person-high sacred wax stone shattered.
The abundant vitality contained within it burst forth at this moment, even transforming into a spring breeze, converging towards the core of the Holy Light!
become……
It worked! ! !
