The Amethyst Relic Gu, once activated, instantly released a powerful energy like a lit flame. This purple energy, like surging waves, rapidly swept over and tightly enveloped his Aperture.
The nascent Aperture was originally somewhat unstable in Foundation. However, under the nourishment of this pure purple energy, the Aperture's light membrane became increasingly thick and solid, as if it had undergone a thousand refinements, without the slightest flaw.
This purple energy continuously poured into the Aperture, making Liu Chen's previously somewhat unstable Rank Five initial Realm cultivation increasingly solid.
This undoubtedly saved Liu Chen a lot of effort. If he had followed the conventional method, he would have needed to spend a great deal of time and energy to nurture the Aperture, waiting for it to gradually stabilize. However, by directly using the Amethyst Relic Gu, he not only quickly stabilized his cultivation but also skipped the lengthy nurturing process.
However, this method of using the Amethyst Relic Gu, in the eyes of others, was simply a waste of heavenly treasures.
After all, the Amethyst Relic Gu was so precious that it should be used sparingly, not squandered so easily.
However, Liu Chen didn't care about this at all. He had already exchanged for enough Amethyst Relic Gu at Lang Ya Earth Spirit to allow him to squander it.
Compared to slowly nurturing his Aperture, Liu Chen preferred to directly use the Amethyst Relic Gu to quickly stabilize his cultivation.
The remaining three Amethyst Relic Gu were activated one after another in Liu Chen's hand. As the power of the Amethyst Relic Gu took effect in his Aperture, Liu Chen's cultivation soared like a rocket, reaching the Rank Five Peak Realm in the blink of an eye!
At this moment, Liu Chen's Aperture was tempered by the power of the Amethyst Relic Gu to be as hard as steel, and his cultivation became incredibly solid, without the slightest flaw.
"Living Treasure Window," Liu Chen said softly after feeling the changes in himself, turning to look at the Living Treasure Window beside him.
Hearing Liu Chen's call, the Living Treasure Window immediately thought that it might be locked up in the small dark room again, and its smile instantly vanished, replaced by a listless expression, with its brows lowered, as if it had suffered a great grievance.
"I know, Master. Please don't forget me!" A hint of resentment was revealed in the Living Treasure Window's voice.
Seeing this, Liu Chen quickly comforted it, "Don't worry, I will definitely let you out when the time comes."
With that, Liu Chen's mind stirred, and the Living Treasure Window, as if grabbed by an invisible large hand, slowly flew into his System backpack.
After doing all this, Liu Chen took a deep breath, and then took out the Fixed Immortal Travel from his embrace.
Liu Chen placed the Fixed Immortal Travel in his palm, and with the infusion of true essence, the light on the Fixed Immortal Travel suddenly brightened. A blue-green breeze enveloped his body and he vanished from the spot... Southern Border, Gu Yue Village, underground cave.
Liu Chen's figure appeared out of thin air, returning to the underground cave he had once excavated. Although this cave was somewhat damp and dark, for Liu Chen, it was his secret base.
Liu Chen walked into the depths of the cave, took out an apparel Gu from his Aperture, and activated it directly. The apparel Gu instantly transformed into a set of Southern Border-style clothing. This clothing was brightly colored, embroidered with exquisite patterns, complementing Liu Chen's temperament.
After putting on his new clothes, Liu Chen then took out the Thousand Li Earth Wolf Spider from his Aperture and manipulated the Thousand Li Earth Wolf Spider to quickly dig out the cave he had personally sealed.
Before long, the Earth Wolf Spider successfully opened the sealed cave, and a new passage appeared before Liu Chen. Liu Chen nodded in satisfaction, then took out several reconnaissance Gu from his embrace. These Gu were small and exquisite, like dragonflies.
After Liu Chen released the reconnaissance Gu, they immediately flew rapidly towards the direction of Gu Yue Village, like a group of agile birds. Liu Chen closed his eyes, concentrated his mind, and through the special connection with the Gu, he could clearly see the images the Gu saw.
As the images transmitted back by the reconnaissance Gu, Liu Chen's face became solemn. He saw a black cloud mist lingering above Qing Mao Mountain, which was tens of thousands of Iron Beak Flying Cranes circling. These Iron Beak Flying Cranes were huge, with wingspans of tens of meters. Their beaks were as hard as iron, capable of easily tearing apart enemies' bodies.
Below the Iron Beak Flying Cranes, Gu Yue Village, Bai Family Mountain Village, and Xiong Family Mountain Village were facing a huge crisis. The defensive fortifications of the three Mountain Villages were crumbling under the fierce attack of the Iron Beak Flying Cranes, and people were fleeing in terror, the scene a chaotic mess.
At the same time, on the other side of Gu Yue Village, the blood puppet corpse that Gu Yue Yi Dai had transformed into was engaged in a thrilling battle with Divine Catcher Tie Xue Leng. Tie Xue Leng's figure was agile, and he activated the Iron Hand Grappling Gu to firmly grasp Gu Yue Yi Dai.
However, the blood puppet corpse that Gu Yue Yi Dai had transformed into was exceptionally tenacious. Although its body was covered in wounds, it could still recover quickly. Moreover, as the battle progressed, the blood puppet corpse's power seemed to grow stronger and stronger, and its attacks became more and more fierce.
On the other side, the battle between the Bronze Giant and the Blood River Python also entered a white-hot stage. The Bronze Giant wielded its huge fists, each punch capable of smashing a huge pit into the ground, while the Blood River Python swam flexibly, occasionally biting at the Bronze Giant with its sharp fangs.
In his battle with the blood puppet corpse, although Tie Xue Leng continuously used various unique skills, due to the serious injuries he had sustained earlier, his offensive became increasingly weak, and he was gradually suppressed by the blood puppet corpse that Gu Yue Yi Dai had transformed into.
"I've returned at just the right time!" Liu Chen sighed to himself, looking at the fierce battle before him. He couldn't help but wonder what excuse Tie Xueleng used to come to Qing Mao Mountain this time? However, now was not the time to think about these things; he had to act quickly.
Liu Chen unhesitatingly opened his System backpack and took out the Living Treasure Window. This Living Treasure Window was his most practical treasure, always coming in handy at critical moments.
"Hey, little guy, you'll have to suffer a bit again this time!" Liu Chen said softly to the Living Treasure Window. Then, he unhesitatingly listed the Gu he needed: "I need Sword Evasion Gu, Flesh-and-Bone Gu, and Living Dead Gu!"
These Gu were all very important aids in Liu Chen's combat. With them, he believed he would definitely be able to handle the current situation.
"Okay, Master, a total of sixty-one Four-Turn Gu are needed."
Seeing Liu Chen's serious expression, the Living Treasure Window immediately stopped playing around and stated the number of Gu needed for the exchange.
