C23 Meridian

"Pah!"

Gao Zhi crashed onto a patch of grass while he was in the air, his body rolling on the ground for over ten times, before he stopped his momentum.

"What's going on?"

Gao Zhi was a little dumbstruck, he carefully checked his own body's condition, and under that one strike, he actually did not receive any damage.

"This is the back mountain of the Gate of Heaven?"

Gao Zhi was even more shocked, he actually directly appeared at the back mountain of the Heaven Gate from that place. One had to know that the distance was very far, tens of kilometers. And when he remembered the voice, Gao Zhi shuddered unknowingly. There was a strong warrior in the forest! To be able to send Gao Zhi flying for tens of kilometers with a single strike, and not harming him in the slightest, and even landing accurately on the back mountain of the Heaven Gate, if this matter were to spread, it would definitely be shocking.

This was a true expert, and he himself seemed to have intruded into the opponent's sphere of influence.

"But I think I remember. That seemed to be a tree branch?"

Gao Zhi thought about the last clue he saw with the help of the 'bright crystal'. It was indeed a tree branch, it looked very ordinary but it was extremely powerful. It appeared from within the darkness, who knew where it came from.

"Kid? "You're the brat, your whole family is made up of brats!"

Gao Zhi thought about what the voice had said, and his face couldn't help but tighten. He hopped and cursed for a while, and actually forgot to think about what kind of existence the other party was.

"Little brat, if it wasn't for you bringing me back, I would have burned you to death."

Gao Zhi curled his lips and made a face in the general direction.

Suddenly, sounds of rustling could be heard from the trees in the distance. Gao Zhi was immediately shocked, and immediately took a few steps back, thinking that the fellow who sent him flying had come to teach him a lesson again.

Following which, under the dim light of the moon, two figures that were not very tall appeared stealthily. One of the figures was a little chubby, and it continued to emit hissing sounds.

"Liang Li? Little Fatty? "

Gao Zhi tilted his head, and gave a probing cry.

"Xiao Zhi?"

The two figures immediately stopped and inquired.

"It's me. How did you guys get out?" Gao Zhi was ecstatic, and immediately walked over.

When he came closer, he saw that it was exactly Liang Li and Wu Bupang. Right now, the two of them were in a miserable state. Their bodies were covered with slender scratches. As for their clothes, they had completely become cloth clothing.

"Don't mention it, aren't you busy trying to escape? Then, the direction was slightly off and they were almost able to get in. Luckily, they were able to react in time. "

Liang Ke sighed, at the same time, he was also very lucky. If they were to enter the Ancient Records Forest in the dark, it would be no different from courting death.

"Right, how come you're faster than us?" Liang Ding then asked, "Also, are you injured?" Who exactly is that person, did you see him? "

"It's a disciple from our Heaven Gate. He is indeed very strong. I was lucky enough to escape."

Gao Zhi grinned, and did not elaborate, and at the same time, pointed to the bloodstains on his body, "I was almost left behind by him."

"You're too loyal, this brother of yours, Wu Bupang, is a man with such loyalty." Wu Bupang went forward and embraced Gao Zhi's shoulders, his tone sincere.

"I, Liang Kui, am of course as well. In the future, if there's anything that Xiao Zhi needs, just say it. As long as it's something that I can do, I will absolutely not say 'no'." Liang Qingfeng's heroic spirit was also moved by Gao Zhi's actions.

"Hehe, I'll split the elixirs that have been refined with me."

Xiao Zhi laughed and changed the topic.

"Definitely, even if you don't want it, you can't." Liang Ke nodded his head repeatedly.

"Let's not talk for now, let's hurry back." Wu Bupang opened his mouth and at the same time, reminded them: "Oh right, we all pay attention to one thing, don't leak out what happened today. If that person discovers us, we really will not be able to handle it. "

Xiao Zhi expressed his understanding, if that person truly knew that it was the three of them. It was fortunate that the opponent didn't see his face, and that he started using the Colossal Python Daoist Diagram, so he didn't have to worry about the opponent discovering his true appearance.

The three of them quietly went back to the dorm and used cold water to wipe the blood off their bodies before going to bed. The Xiao Zhi, on the other hand, was different. He thought of the strange sea of trees, and not to mention the other things, the density of the elemental energy was enough to make many cultivators go crazy and use all sorts of methods to enter.

"I never would have thought that the Heaven Gate Killing Order would have such a use. Could it be that that forest is related to the Heaven Gate?"

"The Xiao Zhi thought to himself as he continued to ponder over questions. Yes, there must be a lot to it. Otherwise, why would the Gate of Heaven be built in the Ancient History's forest? He just didn't know what exactly that place was for. Furthermore, the guy who hit me seems to be very strong. "

"Ah, that's not right. I seem to have forgotten which direction to go in."

Immediately after, the Xiao Zhi slapped his head in annoyance. In fact, thinking about it, he felt relieved. That dark night was still so high, who knew which direction it was coming from?

"Yes, that's right. I'll look for it when I have time."

Xiao Zhi made a decision in his heart, and quickly fell asleep.

In the early morning of the next day, Wu Bupang and Liang Kui came to find Xiao Zhi together. Of course, the three children seemed to have already forgotten what happened yesterday, and no one brought it up.

As Lu Xian was cultivating in seclusion, all the disciples of the Leisurely Heart Palace were busy with their own things. As for Liang Bu, according to his own instructions, he was from the Wind Receiving Hall, and his master was a disciple of the same Master as Lu Xian.

Gao Zhi immediately asked the two of them to bring him to the Meridian. After what happened yesterday, his curiosity towards formations was enough to say that this was the most positive thing that had happened in a long time.

Wu Bupang and Liang Li had nothing better to do in the first place, so they were naturally willing to bring Gao Zhi along.

The Meridian was a small pavilion. There were three levels, and it was said that they were divided according to the 'Heaven, Earth, and Human' levels. Most disciples could only look up some information on the 'Human' level.

The three of them signed their names in front of the Guardian Elder and left behind their master's name.

"What kind of books are you looking for?"

Liang Kui took the initiative to ask Gao Zhi. Due to what happened yesterday, the relationship between the two sides was getting closer.

However, Gao Zhi did not care about what happened yesterday. Speaking of which, Herba Pterygii might not count for much to him.

"Ya, I forgot to check again."

Gao Zhi was upset. He had originally wanted to check the Tao Ring Old Man Yun had given him yesterday, but who knew he would forget. Hearing Liang Ke's question, he said, "I want to see about formations."

"Hmm?"

Liang Chi was stunned for a moment before he realized what was going on and smiled, "You're really impatient. Alright, come with me." With that, he led the way. Obviously, he came here often and was very familiar with the situation.

Soon, he stopped in front of a bookshelf and stretched out his hand to grab a thick book that was made from an unknown beast skin. It was called the 'Theory of Array'. It was obvious that this was a book on array formations, and was extremely useful to Gao Zhi.

"Formation is formed in heaven, it takes the great dao of the world to form its own charm. A wise man comprehends the dao from within, and thus, the formation is created. It moves the firmament, reversing yin and yang!"

Gao Zhi watched so intently that he even ignored Liang Qingming.

Liang Jin stayed for a while, feeling bored and didn't say anything before he left to look for Wu Bupang. In the end, he found that Wu Bupang was already fast asleep with a book in the corner of the Meridian.

Liang Jin was startled, he looked at Wu Bupang, then at the place where Gao Zhi stood, and couldn't help but mutter. Why do I feel like I'm unnecessary now?

"Good stuff."

Gao Zhi's heart was filled with praise, he felt as if he had entered a sea of knowledge. No matter whether it was the Dao Lord Tianyun or Liu Yi, they had never told Gao Zhi about their knowledge regarding this matter. Firstly, he was too young, and the Dao Diagram had just been condensed not long ago. Furthermore, formations were extremely profound. Only those with great talent and perseverance would find it difficult to succeed.

"It's that little punk!"

A female disciple walked over from the side. She glanced at Gao Zhi and clenched her teeth, then turned and left.

However, these words caused a girl who had just walked by to turn around. She was around fourteen or fifteen years old, and was extremely beautiful, to look at the book in Gao Zhi's hands, and to feel that something was off. When she saw it was a 'Formation Theory', she couldn't help but to smile.

Gao Zhi was captivated by the smell, and couldn't help but turn his head to look, only to see a very beautiful girl dressed in white. Her delicate body was emitting a faint fragrance, and he wasn't wearing any accessories. He couldn't help but be startled before grinning, "Ya, little beauty."

The girl laughed lightly. Her voice was very pleasant to listen to, clear as a pearl falling onto a jade plate. "You are Xiao Zhi?"

"Ha, you know me?" Gao Zhi was slightly surprised, and then he asked joyously: "Am I that famous?"

The girl pursed her lips and smiled, looking very attractive. "Yes, many disciples know about you now."

"Haha, I didn't expect that I was already so famous."

Gao Zhi was overjoyed.

"They all call you little Dendy …" The girl smiled again, her pure eyes full of happiness.

"Uhh …" Gao Zhi scratched the back of his head, then went close to the girl's ear and whispered: "Let me tell you a secret, in fact I'm not an old man. That old man is, you know who I'm talking about, right?"

The girl did not expect Gao Zhi to come so close to her so quickly when he said it, and immediately felt a wave of hot air pouncing into her ears. Her charming face flushed red, and she retreated a few steps, then smiled: "As a disciple, I must respect my master.

"Did I say Elder Tianlong?"

Gao Zhi laughed and blinked his eyes.

"Huh?"

The girl was stunned. She felt like she had fallen into a 'trap'. She pouted and said, "You really are a rascal."

With that, he turned and left, leaving behind a beautiful silhouette.

"Rascal? Isn't that a lecher? "

Gao Zhi could not come to a conclusion, and nodded his head, "He should have levelled up, and become a scoundrel after becoming a lackey. Then what about after the scoundrel? Sigh, I don't get it. Forget it, let's just keep reading. "
