Barrier of Light

Gu Shen looked at Gong Zi's stretched out hand.

The hot mist from the Qingshui hot pot rose, and the hand passed through the mist and came to front of him.

No.

Rather...that hand passed through the fog.

It would be better to say that these fogs avoided Gong Zi's hands.

"How to help?"

Gu Shen did not extend his hand, but smiled and spoke.

Gong Zi was very patient and said slowly: "How do you want the Gong family to help, the Gong family can help... The Bai family has been very lucky in recent years, and the Baixiu they have cultivated has already gained the reputation of being invincible. Now you As an S-class newcomer who is more popular than him, it is very likely that he will fight in the future."

"The training resources in the adjudication center are certainly rich, but if you want to obtain them, there are always restrictions and rules."

Gong Zi said sincerely: "I heard that you live in Gujiashu District in the northern suburbs, and the person in charge there is Luo Yu. Let's take him as an example... He is nominally a genius commander of the command post, but in fact Luo Yu The most important source of Yu's extraordinary cultivation resources, as well as the worldly things and power he controls, must be given by the Gu family."

Gu Shen fell into thinking.

"This place is different from most...it's more ancient here." Gong Zi thought for a moment and changed a word, "Maybe it would be more vivid to describe it as 'ancient'. If you want to take root here, just rely on the strength of one person , it’s very... very difficult.”

Gong Zi said it very tactfully.

But in fact, the five major families are just towering mountains that are insurmountable.

Dadu District is the new son created in the "deep sea" era, the new emperor wearing a crown.

As for Nagano District, there is an old man who has long been sitting on the throne.

It has its own unique rules.

"Moreover, the hand I extended today...not only represents the Gong family." Gong Zi spoke seriously.

"And the Mu family." Mu Nan's pair of goggles were filled with fog. He stopped from eating hot-boiled beef, burped extremely quietly, and spoke solemnly.

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes and looked at the two young men sitting opposite him.

“Only by uniting vertically and horizontally can we protect ourselves.”

Gong Zi lowered her voice and said: "So sincere...does Brother Gu still need to consider it?"

"It's very sincere indeed."

Gu Shen thought for a moment and said regretfully: "But I'm sorry, I can't hold this hand, whether it is the Gong family or the Mu family..."

Gong Zi was stunned.

"Because the Bai family also extended a hand to me before."

Gu Shen spoke calmly.

Gong Zi recalled the original scene on the Ninghe Bridge.

The eldest lady of the Bai family extended her hand to Gu Shen.

Gu Shen... also refused.

"To me... holding the hand of any one of you means holding trouble."

Gu Shen smiled and said: "Brother Gong, Brother Mu, thank you for your hospitality, but I cannot join your joint venture. Of course, I will not join the Bai family or the Li family. I just want to be alone." Practice quietly."

This was an unexpected answer from Gong Zi.

But it’s also a reasonable response.

"I respect your wishes." Gong Zi smiled, "Business is not a business, and of course today's meal is not a business either. If you change your mind, Brother Gu can come to me at any time."

"in addition……"

"Soon, there will be a newcomer battle in the Snow Forbidden City, and all extraordinary people under the age of twenty can participate..."

Gu Shen laughed halfway through.

"I will not participate in the so-called 'rookie war'..."

He shook his head and expressed his attitude directly, saying: "I wish Brother Gong a great success and take the top spot."

A week later, the materials for repairing the Qingzuka Formation will arrive. By then, I should be busy... As for the so-called newcomer battle, it is not within the scope of my consideration at all.

These guys in Nagano are aggressive and strive to win.

The newcomer battle came at the right time, and Gu Shen just hoped that things around him would become quiet as soon as possible.

Gong Zi was a little embarrassed, coughed slightly, and asked, "Brother Gu, don't you even ask about the reward?"

Gu Shen's attitude seems to be that he doesn't care about the newcomer battle at all...

In fact, he had always regarded "White Sleeves" as his ultimate enemy, and after Gu Shen came to Nagano, Gong Zi vaguely felt that he might have another enemy.

"The reward is...?" Gu Shen asked half-heartedly and half-heartedly.

"The dream of enlightenment with a wisp of 'fire'."

Gong Zi said in a deep voice: "This is twenty years ago, when Mr. Gu Changzhi had not fallen into a deep sleep, the creation left behind in the Snow Forbidden City, a total of thirty rays of fire enlightenment dream... Perhaps he realized that he was about to fall into After a long sleep, these thirty rays of fire are divided into thirty years, and each year is given to the newcomers as champions."

"The fire's dream of enlightenment?"

Gu Shen, who had no interest at first, suddenly became interested.

"You also know...those who can carry the power of fire are unique gods." Complex emotions flashed through Gong Zi's eyes, and he whispered: "The reason why there are five aristocratic families in Nagano is because in the past In the years since then, all five families have had gods in charge of 'fire'."

"In ancient times, the federal government screened 'Fire' candidates and recruited them all over the world... Under extremely harsh conditions, those extraordinary people with great perseverance still ended in failure. Among them, There is no shortage of powerful people with title levels.”

"One of the many tests these people need to undergo is the dream of 'fire' enlightenment."

Gu Shen frowned and asked, "Having passed this dream of enlightenment means that you have the potential to smelt fire?"

"Theoretically... it's like this. But it's just one of many indicators." Gong Zi smiled: "It's very tempting, right? Even one of these indicators has still stumped countless geniuses. Over the years , the geniuses who won the newcomer battle in the Snow Forbidden City all tried to comprehend the dream of fire with confidence..."

"All failed?" Gu Shen was a little surprised.

"All failed."

Gong Zi took a deep breath and said: "The reason why it is called the Newcomer Battle... is because everyone has only one chance to participate. Of course, for those who really want to win the championship, except for the 'Fire Dream', there are no other rewards. important."

The conditions for this newcomer battle are quite harsh.

Some who awakened their extraordinary talents late...were simply not eligible to participate.

In fact, the dignitaries of the five major families have neither resources nor sealed objects... What they really value should be the dream of "fire" enlightenment that is preserved in accordance with the will of the God.

Gu Shen smiled and said, "I'm afraid it will be difficult for Brother Gong to win the championship."

Unfortunately.

There is a "little invincible" in Nagano.

If the Bai Xiu of the Bai family, who was praised to the sky, participated in the rookie battle, he should be crushed all the way.

Judging from the domineering appearance displayed by the White Sleeve Breathing Technique, this guy is most likely an admirer of Gu Changzhi.

How could such a monster give up his dream of fire?

"I'm still waiting and watching..."

Gong Zi was silent for a moment and said: "If Bai Xiu competes this year, I may choose to compete again next year... Although it sounds a bit embarrassing, at least next year I will have the opportunity to understand the 'Dream of Fire'."

"Hakusho is training in Jiangbei and has not returned yet... The whole of Nagano is waiting for news of his return."

When Gong Zi said this, her expression was complicated and she said: "Of course, there is one more person now. You."
