C19 Strange place

Leisurely Hall.

It was the side hall that Gao Zhi resided in, which could be considered as belonging to Lu Xian.

Actually, a disciple like Lu Xian would not have a side palace. He was only instructing him through the generations of seniors. As for his previous generation, they were naturally cultivators of the same age as the Elder Tianlong.

And so on, the other disciples like Lu Xian taught the next generation of cultivators this way.

As for how many such side halls were in the Heaven Gate, Gao Zhi found out from Wu Bupang that there were a total of ninety-nine of them. The number of disciples was not the same. Some only taught one disciple, and some did not even receive one disciple.

Although it was a side palace, the interior was very spacious. It was at least four or five hundred square meters. At the moment, many disciples were already standing inside, and Gao Zhi and Wu Bupang was obviously the last one to arrive.

Zhu Chaoyun treated the two of them calmly, and the two of them did not show any signs of arriving late. This point was somewhat similar to Lu Xian, to the point that Gao Zhi felt that he was another version of Lu Xian.

The two of them found a spot to stand, coincidentally standing beside Dian Xiaole, provoking his into becoming impatient, so they walked towards the side. The two of them did not mind, and quietly waited for Zhu Chaoyun to speak.

Zhu Chaoyun coughed lightly and said, "Because Xiao Zhi and I will not participate in this competition, we must filter out one more person out of the thirteen remaining people. This way, two or three groups will have no objections, right? "

The others nodded slightly to express their understanding.

"Junior Gong's strength is quite good. This time, there's no need to participate right?" Zhu Chaoyun looked at Gong Xuee and smiled.

"I have no objections." Gong Xuee calmly spoke, not minding at all.

"Why not me? Why not me? " The little fatty cried out in dissatisfaction.

Zhu Chaoyun didn't react at all to the little fatty's words. After glancing at him indifferently, he no longer bothered with him.

"Let's form our own party." Zhu Chaoyun said again.

With that said, everyone formed their own camp, especially the female disciples. Since Gong Xuee did not participate, it was coincidentally four people, so forming their own group was much easier.

Very quickly, Gao Zhi discovered an interesting phenomenon. There was basically no one who was willing to team up with Little Fatso. The little fatty looked embarrassed and puzzled. Amongst the others, there was only one person called Zhang Ling left. Although he was young, he gave off a very gloomy feeling.

"Zhang Ling, you and Little Fatty can go together." Zhu Chaoyun opened his mouth and started to mix the ingredients.

Zhang Ling did not say a word, and did not even bother to look at the little fatty.

Wu Bupang curled his lips, and said unhappily: "Don't look like you're in debt all the time, do you really think I'm willing to go with you?"

Hearing that, Zhang Ling remained silent and quietly stood there. Wu Bupang was thwarted, he gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do, as he watched Gao Zhi with glee.

"Let's start with Junior Brother Zhang Ling, Junior Brother Wu Bupang, Junior Sister Dian Xiaole and Song Marten."

After Zhu Chaoyun finished speaking, he retreated far away. The others also opened up a wide space of their own, allowing everyone to move their hands and feet.

"Let's see how this sovereign will deal with all of you."

Wu Bupang curled his lips, and took a big step forward while brimming with confidence.

Zhang Ling stood there motionless.

"Boring."

Dian Xiaole casually swept a glance over Wu Bupang, and without taking any action, his delicate body instantly appeared in front of Wu Bupang, and with a kick, he kicked on Wu Bupang's stomach, sending him flying a few meters away, and sat on the ground with his butt facing the ground.

"You sneak attack!"

Wu Bupang was enraged, he twisted his fat body and stood up.

"It's so boring." Dian Xiaole ignored him, turned his body, and kicked Wu Bupang to the side again.

"Not counted as a sneak attack!" Wu Bupang shouted, and before he could finish, he was kicked a few more times, rolling on the ground.

For a moment, the entire side hall was filled with the sound of Wu Bupang being kicked and his cries of pain. Unfortunately, no one paid him any attention.

"I give up." On the other side, Zhang Ling glanced at Wu Bupang indifferently, as if he felt that it was a bit 'unbearable', and suddenly spoke.

"Boring." Dian Xiaole withdrew his leg, and slowly walked back.

"As expected, very boring."

Gao Zhi earnestly nodded his head, he reckoned that this was the most boring 'competition' in history.

"Why did you give up? We haven't lost yet! " Wu Bupang shouted at Zhang Ling in dissatisfaction.

Zhang Ling ignored him, turning his eyes to his nose, his nose to his heart …

"Zhang, don't think that I have a lot of words to say. With your character, you will never be able to reach the pinnacle of the Great Dao." If you don't even fight for it, you give up. Why are you training like this? Why aren't you going home to farm? Speaking of you, no matter how old you are, you aren't young at all. Where have you lived for more than ten years? Ah? "You must be talking."

Wu Bupang lectured endlessly. Unfortunately, no matter what he said, Zhang Ling remained expressionless and just stood there.

Gao Zhi felt that it was extremely interesting and finally understood why no one was willing to team up with Wu Bupang.

Immediately after, it was the other disciples' sparring match. Once again, let Gao Zhi know what it meant to be bored, because this was a 'friendly' competition. So, everyone can't use the dao diagrams.

This was just a martial arts spar. Even Dao Energy was controlled within a certain range. Seeing that, Gao Zhi felt sleepy, but he still realised that Dian Xiaole was especially capable. He was extremely familiar with the use of martial skills.

After this event, Gao Zhi suddenly felt that even if Zhu Chaoyun and Gong Xuee were to fight against him, he might not even be able to see their true strength.

Disappointment

This was the only feeling Gao Zhi had, and then he smiled, though he did not care.

Wu Bupang kept muttering to himself, feeling indignant that he had been violently beaten up by Dian Xiaole and lost all his face.

In the end, Dian Xiaole obtained the victory in this competition.

Seeing that, Gao Zhi yawned and turned to leave. Wu Bupang said to Dian Xiaole: "Little girl, there will be a day when I will beat you to the ground."

"Then why don't you try?"

Dian Xiaole acted as if he wanted to kick, scaring Wu Bupang so much that he immediately rushed towards Gao Zhi, in order to not be kicked until he fell flat on his face again.

"Come, let's go for a stroll."

Wu Bupang caught up with Gao Zhi, looking like they were brothers.

"Not interested." Gao Zhi said in a perfunctory manner.

"Why?" Wu Bupang was startled, and asked puzzledly: "Could it be that you have other things to say?"

"I'm tired." Gao Zhi said lazily, his face full of sleepiness.

"You're a pig, right?" Wu Bupang stared, "Why do you like sleeping more than me?"

Gao Zhi ignored him and rushed straight back to his own room.

Wu Bupang looked at it for a while, and finally sighed: "What kind of person is this, it's too annoying."

Gao Zhi only half-heartedly went straight to the back mountain and entered the dense forest. He did not actually return to his dorm.

With no one around, Gao Zhi increased his pace and entered the forest. Following the previous impression, he followed the tracks he left behind and rushed in. Afterwards, he moved like a snake and didn't use all three dao diagrams at once. He only chose one and quickly charged into the interior.

An hour later, Gao Zhi appeared in front of the simple house that he had built earlier.

"Hmm? "Yes, no animal has ever come before."

Gao Zhi smiled and nodded, without wasting any time, he grabbed a few hundred kilograms of rock and started to run around. As he ran, his hands constantly did all sorts of movements. He retracted his aura and did not use his Dao Energy. He only relied on the power of his fleshly body.

Following which, Gao Zhi raised a thousand kilogram boulder with both hands, looked at the small mountain in front of him, and walked up one step at a time. The muscles all over his body bulged out, brimming with a powerful energy.

"Hah!"

Gao Zhi bellowed, and his muscles exploded with a power like a dragon's. After which, he suddenly sped up and started running at full speed. It produced a series of tremors, and wherever it passed, small stones would roll down.

"Bam!"

An hour later, Gao Zhi stood on the summit of the small mountain, the huge boulder in his hands smashed onto the mountain peak.

"Awesome!"

Gao Zhi heaved a sigh of relief. His entire body was drenched in sweat and his clothes were all wet. His face was flushed, but he did not appear to be out of breath. One had to know that he had lifted up a huge rock weighing nearly a thousand Jin with both hands. To be able to do this without using any Dao power was absolutely shocking.

Perhaps, even Gao Zhi did not know that the Dao Lord Tianyun had specially gone out to hunt a large number of demon beasts to feed Gao Zhi. Every one of these demon beasts' bodies were extremely strong, their flesh containing a large amount of life essence, which was why Gao Zhi was able to achieve his current achievements. If it was an ordinary demonic beast, it would simply be impossible.

Among human cultivators, if one's strength reached a certain level. The Dao Force would undergo a qualitative change. Not only would the demonic beast be like this, its body would also undergo a qualitative change. Perhaps demonic beasts were not as powerful as human cultivators in terms of their Dao energy, but in terms of physique, they were definitely more than ten times, perhaps even a hundred times stronger.

However, among humans, Dao energy determined the peak, while the dao diagram determined the peak. Very few people cared about the power of the physical body, because in the eyes of cultivators, no matter how strong they were, they could be killed as long as the dao diagram was activated.

"Ancient History of the Forest, it's so big."

Gao Zhi looked around in the distance and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. Wherever his gaze passed by, all he saw were towering trees that reached into the clouds. Above the forest, the fog was rising and it was impossible to tell how big it was. With a single glance, Nie Tian could see that they were all trees, with the exception of the mountain where the Heaven Gate was. However, compared to the ancient history of the forest, it was nothing.

"Hmm?"

Gao Zhi raised his brows and subconsciously rubbed his eyes before once again looking at a place several kilometers away from the Heaven Gate. He didn't know why, but he felt that it was sometimes bright and sometimes dark. If he looked carefully, he would see that it was only a forest that didn't have any strange characteristics. However, for some reason, he had the feeling that an area had been vacated.

"How strange."

Gao Zhi tilted his head, revealing a pondering look. Suddenly, with a thought, a dao diagram appeared behind his back. This time, only a small sapling quietly stood there. Following the appearance of this dao diagram, the nearby trees seemed to have life, with many leaves moving closer to Gao Zhi.

"Boom!"

Gao Zhi's body trembled, he only felt his vision blur, and a bizarre scene actually appeared.

A vast sea of forests appeared before his eyes. He didn't know how many trees there were. Each tree was around ten meters in diameter and a hundred zhang in height. A bizarre region had formed there. There seemed to be the flow of Dao Energy, as well as a peculiar feeling of Dao.

It was as if that place was its own world. Although it was a part of the Primordial Forest of History, he discovered that there was a huge difference between the two.
