Only make friends with the highest level of cultivation

Chapter 14

When Shen Linxi woke up, it was already the second day.

He had just opened his eyes and was staring at the rock wall above in a daze when the system's notification suddenly sounded, [When the host fell asleep yesterday, the target's favorability was +5, and the current favorability is 69. 】

Shen Linxi was stunned by the news at that time.What? !He rejected Gu Ruoguang so much yesterday, and the other party's favorability actually rose instead of falling. What happened?

Normally, if Gu Ruoguang's favorability increased, Shen Linxi would definitely be ecstatic.But now, he was very complicated.

Because of the Gu worms, Shen Linxi's memory is also quite chaotic. He vaguely remembered that Gu Ruoguang took him to a ice spring, and then he was almost frozen to death... just relying on a little willpower to fight against the Gu worms in his body, Finally, after the matter was resolved, I fell asleep with peace of mind...

"It feels like nothing wrong happened." Shen Linxi frowned, and then he was overjoyed, "Could it be that Gu Ruoguang looked away after being rejected by me and decided to start as a friend again, so he was relieved?" ?”

You must know that in the original work, Gu Ruoguang was such an aloof person, devoted to the Tao, and never had other things in his eyes, although he accidentally fell in love with himself before... But this is just a small and inconspicuous twist in Gu Ruoguang's life, He is by no means the kind of person who would have other thoughts after being rejected, and he would definitely return to his usual appearance immediately, and he would not have any extra feelings for himself.

Thinking of this, Shen Linxi sat up and found that he was sleeping in a cave, with hay under his body so as not to make him sleep stiff, and there were a few spiritual fruits wrapped in leaves on one side, even There are also shiny water droplets.

Immediately, Shen Linxi felt bad again, "Gu Ruoguang is such a caring person! He even thought about the fact that I would be hungry when I wake up in the morning! Could it be that he hasn't let go..."

It's not that Shen Linxi thinks too much, it's just that he has to be vigilant in such an environment, otherwise who knows how he will die someday!

Shen Linxi quickly finished the spirit fruit somewhat absent-mindedly. After all, only when his stomach is full can he have the strength to face the cruel reality.

During this period, he found that his cultivation base had been raised again, thanks to the elixir given by the Demon Lord and the practice in the ice spring.The talent has also improved slightly - this is judged by Shen Linxi through the speed at which he absorbs the spiritual energy and converts it into spiritual power. It must be that the reward has been fulfilled by the random task system before.

"This is the happiest thing right now."

Shen Linxi was deeply moved, took a deep breath, stood up and walked out.

Outside the cave, Gu Ruoguang was standing in an open space that had been cleared out. On the other side were several feisty-looking monsters that were restrained. They were trembling under Gu Ruoguang's pressure, as if they were terrified. extreme.

"This is..." Shen Linxi looked bewildered, completely confused about what the situation is now, is this going to hold a barbecue meeting on the spot?

Gu Ruoguang turned his head and looked at Shen Linxi with a calm expression, just like in the past, without any extra emotion, as if what happened yesterday never happened, and their relationship went back to before.

Shen Linxi couldn't help feeling much more at ease, feeling that he must have thought too much before, even for a person like Gu Ruoguang, what's the matter with getting some fruit for his friends, it doesn't mean that there is something.

It is indeed impossible for ordinary people to give up so quickly, but is Gu Ruoguang an ordinary person?In the original work, he even has negative favorability with most people!

"This is for your cultivation." Gu Ruoguang said lightly, "There are always times when I'm not by your side. If I don't work hard to cultivate, in that situation, I can't do anything when you encounter danger."

"Of, of course." Shen Linxi looked at those monsters, his pupils were shocked, it couldn't be prepared for him, he would die suddenly on the spot if he really met these monsters!He couldn't help reminding Gu Ruoguang tactfully, "But, but...my talent is really poor, and my cultivation speed is also very slow..."

"I know that." Gu Ruoguang said, "It's true that you won't be able to improve your cultivation too much in a short time. But if you understand the sword intent, you can greatly increase your strength, and you will be able to fight in times of crisis."

Shen Linxi: "?"

Shen Linxi: "Yes, but I have absolutely no experience with swords."

"No problem." Gu Ruoguang stared at him, "I will teach you."

At that time, Shen Linxi felt a surge of enthusiasm in his heart, thinking that he might also have a talent for sword practice, and learning from Gu Ruoguang, a genius who is said to be a rare genius in swordsmanship in the original text, would have a bright future—what a ghost .

Half a day later, Shen Linxi was exhausted and stood on the open space holding a branch and slashing at the surrounding stones, trying to control it with spiritual power to achieve the effect of a spiritual sword.

He has been practicing all morning, and he never stopped. His body is covered in sweat, and he feels as if he has stepped out of the water. Whenever this happened, Gu Ruoguang would send the pill to let Shen Linxi recover.

Gu Ruoguang's request is for him to freely manipulate the branches with spiritual power, just like manipulating his own body, and then display his sword intent...

How is this possible!Shen Linxi has almost never tried to manipulate spiritual power so delicately in the past, and he is completely at a loss, let alone holding an ordinary branch to contact him!

Gu Ruoguang next to him kept staring at this side, not allowing him to rest at all. If he saw Shen Linxi showing signs of laziness, he would stare at him with cold eyes. Lin Xi practiced vigorously again.

Shen Linxi didn't know if his swordsmanship had improved, but under Gu Ruoguang's instructions, he had successfully gotten used to how to save spiritual power to the greatest extent and speed up the speed of absorbing spiritual energy.He is also proficient in manipulating wooden swords with spiritual power.

"I think I'm really dying." Shen Linxi panted and looked at Gu Ruoguang next to him, with a pitiful appearance, "Can you let me rest..."

Gu Ruoguang lowered his head and pondered for a while, as if he was thinking about something, then nodded, "Then this time, I'll give you a rest for half an hour, and eat something along the way."

"That's great!!" Shen Linxi felt as if he had grasped the hope of life at this moment, and immediately threw away the branch in his hand and sat on the ground without image.He felt that if he continued to practice, he would die!

Thinking of the few sentences in the original text that mentioned how Gu Ruoguang was so hard-working and sleepless in his cultivation, and almost killed out of the monsters, he felt that Gu Ruoguang was really too strong.It is hard not to respect such a talented and hard-working person who almost sacrificed his life.

Wait, monster...

Shen Linxi looked at the few monsters that were trapped and still looked very terrifying, feeling his body froze, and a not-so-good future appeared in his mind.

Gu Ruoguang over there started to roast monster meat on the bonfire. He had never had any experience in this area before, but he only watched Shen Linxi roast it a few times, but now he is proficient in his movements, which is pleasing to the eye. It's like a food documentary.

"Gu Ruoguang actually grilled meat for me. This is really amazing. In the original work, the word "barbecue" doesn't even appear on the same page as his name." , Knowing his current treatment, what kind of things will torture him into.

Perhaps because of too much consumption, Shen Linxi had a big appetite during lunch, and excitedly took the barbecue that was handed over by Gu Ruoguang, which was extremely delicious at first glance. After biting down, he felt an indescribable taste...

He is simply unimaginable!Is this really a roast that just looked flawless?Why the taste is so indescribable.It can only be said that Shen Linxi would not spit out the taste of this barbecue on the spot, but if he wanted to eat a few more bites, it would require psychological endurance.

Is this the shortcoming of Gu Ruoguang, who is so perfect and flawless everywhere?

Shen Linxi looked at Gu Ruoguang's eyes that seemed to be looking at him without any emotion, but he knew... Since Gu Ruoguang still turned his head to look over, he must be more concerned about his evaluation!

But how could Shen Linxi tell this cruel truth? He immediately pretended to be eager, and excitedly tore off a large piece of barbecue and put it in his mouth. He ate it hungrily and said quickly, "It's so delicious. Already!"

"That's good." Gu Ruoguang nodded slightly, and turned his head casually.

[The favorability of the target of the attack is +5, and the current favorability is 74.The host is really skilled! 】

Shen Linxi: "?" What, what proficiency.He didn't feel like he had done anything!It can only be said that the basic favorability has increased, so everything is more pleasing to the eye...

[Because the target's favorability exceeds 70, the rewards for daily tasks and other tasks are increased by 1.5 times.If the favorability exceeds 80, there will be hidden missions!Host, please do your best. 】

"There is such a good thing." Shen Linxi cheered up again.

As for the fact that Shen Linxi was wary of Gu Ruoguang's unrequited love for him, he had completely forgotten about it.It's just that the training just now was too hard, and there is no such thing as pity and pity... Would it be like this if you like someone!Gu Ruoguang must have felt like a good brother to him.

-----

On the other side, Young Master Zhai was seriously injured and fled in the forest in extreme embarrassment.

Seeing that there was no one around, he carefully sat down to rest.Thinking of the terrifying memory of being chased and killed by Gu Ruoguang before, Young Master Zhai couldn't help shivering.

"As for that! He's just a trash on the second floor of Qi Refining! Damn it, I'll make him kneel down and beg for mercy after I pass this entry test."

But he didn't dare to crush the jade slips and give up the entry test. If he couldn't even pass the entry test, his status in the clan would definitely drop!It will be ridden on the head by other people, and it would be better than death.

Most of Young Master Zhai's attendants are also dead men, and it is impossible for Young Master Zhai to have an accident if he is dead. Therefore, they died to protect him before, and they never thought about running away alone.

With a trembling hand, he took out the elixir, and wanted to put it in his mouth, but suddenly he was startled, and the expression in his eyes also lost, as if he had lost his consciousness.

In the next moment, a black shadow appeared out of thin air in front of Young Master Zhai. Its image was extremely illusory, and the devilish energy around him was restrained so well that he couldn't see his figure clearly, only a pair of bewitching red eyes could be seen.

"This is the secret realm where the lord is sealed. But I don't have a real body, and it's too difficult to avoid these cultivators. Why don't we seize this guy and get more information..."

After the words fell, the black mist melted into the body of Young Master Zhai on one side.The latter's body immediately twitched in an extremely twisted posture, and screamed shrillly, but no one noticed this weird scene at all.

Soon, everything returned to calm.
