Chapter 168: Wuhu Guardian!
The two words "Hall of Souls" flashed through his mind, and suddenly, Gu He's expression became serious.
Although his strength is already formidable, in these past few days, Gu He took the opportunity to go out and fully refine the accumulated cultivation in the system space. His cultivation has now reached the level of a seven-star Dou Ancestor.
But what does it matter?
Gu He knows the terror of the Hall of Souls.
In front of the Hall of Souls, his current strength is not enough to stir up any waves.
All along, Gu He has tried his best to conceal himself, to hide his strength, and not attract too much attention from the Hall of Souls. However, he almost overlooked the fact that there is a Hall of Souls Guardian lurking within Cloud Mist Sect.
Thinking about the original work, Gu He remembers that the Hall of Souls Guardian lurking in Cloud Mist Sect is called Wuhu Guardian, an earth-level guardian of the Hall of Souls with a strength already reaching the level of a seven-star Dou Ancestor.
Judging from the aura just now, the opponent clearly also came from Cloud Mist Sect's back mountain.
The thought of the commotion he caused in the back mountain during this time made Gu He feel a chill down his spine.
Although he has the Nine-Colored Sacred Lotus, it is impossible for Wuhu Guardian to enter the valley.
However, over time, there may be some clues.
Thinking about this, a trace of determination flashed in Gu He's eyes.
Everything in the back mountain valley is extremely important to Gu He and cannot afford any mistakes.
Gu He also cannot guarantee whether Wuhu Guardian has noticed anything.
What if...
After hesitating for a moment, Gu He's expression suddenly became resolute. He activated the Ascension Steps technique, and his figure disappeared in the courtyard, heading towards the aura that had just left the back mountain.
...
Not far from Cloud Mist Sect, in the void, a dense red mist, like demons and monsters, flew towards the distance.
The red mist was extremely fast. In just a moment, it crossed a great distance.
When the red mist flew over a secluded mountain range, it suddenly stopped.
In a few blinks, it directly stopped in the sky, and the red mist slowly retracted, finally turning into a figure whose features were unclear.
The figure stared intently ahead, and there was a hint of seriousness in his expression. "Who are you, and why are you blocking my way?"
Not far away in the high sky, a red lotus platform hovered in the void, radiating a brilliant red light. A figure in white stood on the red lotus platform, with a silver mask on his face. Under the dazzling red light, only a shadowy figure could be vaguely seen.
The figure standing on the red lotus platform was naturally Gu He.
He stood on the Sacred Lotus Platform.
Faced with the questioning of Wuhu Guardian, Gu He did not answer.
The Hall of Souls' methods are mysterious. In case the other party escapes, revealing some information, allowing them to trace some clues, it would be troublesome.
Seeing Gu He not answering, Wuhu Guardian frowned and asked again, "Who are you, and why are you blocking my way?"
His gaze swept coldly over Gu He, and he felt a bit chill in his heart. He could perceive that this mysterious and powerful person was by no means weaker than him.
However, this time, Gu He still did not answer. Instead, a terrifying pressure emanated from his body, attacking Wuhu Guardian.
Sensing the aura emanating from Gu He, Wuhu Guardian's expression changed, and he scolded angrily, "Whoever you are, I am a member of the Hall of Souls. Think carefully before attacking me."
"So much nonsense!"
On the Sacred Lotus Platform, upon hearing these words, Gu He sneered, moving directly towards Wuhu Guardian.
At the same time, a red sacred shield appeared on the Red Lotus Platform, firmly protecting Gu He within.
"Hehe, what an arrogant guy. Even if you are a strong Dou Ancestor, in the eyes of our Hall of Souls, you're nothing. In the future, you might regret your decision to offend the Hall of Souls today!" The disrespectful attitude of Gu He made Wuhu Guardian's anger surge.
"Members of your Hall of Souls always like to utter such meaningless words... No wonder..." Inside the Red Lotus Platform, Gu He raised his head, speaking lightly towards Wuhu Guardian.
He didn't utter the last part, "No wonder Xiao Yan always manages to escape."
"Have you encountered other members of the Hall of Souls?" Hearing the implied meaning in Gu He's words, Wuhu Guardian's eyes flickered slightly, surprised.
Facing Wuhu Guardian's question, Gu He suddenly fell silent, choosing not to answer. The vast Dou Qi in his body flowed through his meridians like a raging river, causing visible fluctuations in the surrounding space. This kind of change in the world, solely based on the flow of Dou Qi, could only be accomplished by a Dou Ancestor level powerhouse. Within the Dou Emperor level, no one else could achieve it.
Seeing Gu He remain silent again, Wuhu Guardian's eyes flashed with a hint of killing intent. He coldly snorted, "Today, this Guardian has come to test and see if you are worthy of such arrogance!"
After this cold snort, Wuhu Guardian's finger moved, and a crisp clanging sound echoed. Immediately, iron chains, sounding like the tentacles of an octopus, viciously attacked Gu He.
Facing the formidable attack, Gu He's expression remained unchanged. At the moment the iron chains were about to strike, he activated the Red Lotus Platform, colliding directly. With a dazzling red light on the Red Lotus Shield, the powerful force directly sent the massive chain flying.
The defensive power of the Red Lotus Shield was extremely astonishing, and Wuhu Guardian's attack posed little threat to Gu He.
Although it was only a preliminary exchange, the collision of the Red Lotus Shield and the chain already produced a deafening roar, and a surging energy ripple spread in all directions.
"Such a strong defense!"
After the attack, Wuhu Guardian looked at the intact Red Lotus Shield, revealing a surprised expression.
Even an ordinary Dou Ancestor would find it difficult to resist his previous attack. Yet, this person easily blocked it with the red lotus platform.
"What a precious treasure!"
Realizing this, Wuhu Guardian looked at the red lotus platform under Gu He's feet with some greed.
If he obtained this red lotus platform, his strength would undoubtedly greatly increase.
"Hehehe, do you plan to keep hiding behind this turtle shell and fight with me?" Following this, Wuhu Guardian looked at Gu He, his tone carrying a hint of mockery.
Faced with Wuhu Guardian's mockery, Gu He remained unfazed. He slowly extended his right hand, and a ball of flame suddenly surged out.
The flame in his hand was a strange mix of purple and red, appearing extremely enchanting.
The moment the flame appeared in Gu He's hand, Wuhu Guardian glanced at it and widened his eyes, his tone filled with horror, "This is... a Heavenly Flame!"
