Creation and immortality: I can manifest endless talents

Gu Yang's steps were firm and resolute, and his figure cast a lonely silhouette on the barren land.

The sky of the Nine Netherworld was gloomy and lightless, and the air was filled with a suffocating silence.

But this did not stop him from moving forward. There was a firm light in his eyes, and every step was heavy and powerful.

On this land, broken walls and ruins can be seen everywhere. The glorious civilization of the past has turned to dust. Only those strange plants twisted by the power of the Nine Netherworld swayed in the wind, as if telling a series of tragic past events.

Gu Yang's figure kept moving across the barren land, his eyes as sharp as a falcon, looking for any signs that might hide secrets.

He knew that the threat of the Nine Netherworld creatures was omnipresent, and he must be ready to deal with possible battles at any time.

Just as he was going deeper into the Nine Netherworld, a strong breath suddenly came from the front.

Gu Yang immediately became alert, his body tensed, the power of the Nine Netherworld circulated in his body, ready to fight at any time.

Ahead, a black fog filled the air, and heavy footsteps were heard from it. A huge Nine Nether creature slowly walked out.

Its body was covered with a hard black shell, and its two red eyes flashed an evil light in the darkness.

This was a hunter from the Nine Nether World, and its strength far exceeded any Nine Nether creature that Gu Yang had encountered before.

Gu Yang did not retreat. On the contrary, a light of challenge flashed in his eyes.

He knew that only by defeating such a powerful enemy could he understand the secrets of the Nine Nether World more deeply and find that piece of pure land.

The Nine Nether Hunter let out a deafening roar and rushed towards Gu Yang.

It was extremely fast and almost instantly arrived in front of Gu Yang.

Gu Yang calmly dodged sideways, and at the same time, the Nine Nether Power in his hand quickly condensed and turned into a pitch-black long sword.

The battle between the two broke out instantly, and Gu Yang's long sword collided with the claws of the Nine Nether Hunter, making a series of metal collision sounds.

Gu Yang was extremely accurate every time he drew his sword, trying to find the weakness of the Nine Nether Hunter.

The attacks of the Nine Nether Hunter were violent and fierce, and every swing of it carried the power to destroy everything.

But Gu Yang flexibly shuttled between its attacks and kept counterattacking.

The battle lasted for dozens of rounds, and Gu Yang's forehead was already covered with sweat, and his breathing became more and more rapid.

But his eyes were still firm, and there was an unyielding power in his heart supporting him.

Finally, after a fierce confrontation, Gu Yang found an opportunity, and his long sword penetrated the Nine Nether Hunter's shell and pierced its vitals.

The Nine Nether Hunter screamed and fell to the ground, and his body gradually turned into black smoke and dissipated.

Gu Yang stood there, panting, and he knew that he had won this hard-fought victory.

He did not stop and continued to move forward. His heart was more eager to find that piece of pure land than ever before.

He passed through one piece of land after another eroded by the power of the Nine Nether, and each place was filled with the breath of death and despair.

But Gu Yang always kept a hope in his heart. He believed that as long as he persisted, light would eventually come.

Gu Yang's heart was filled with longing for that piece of pure land. His steps did not become heavy because of the battle just now, but became more determined because of the victory.

Soon after, Gu Yang came to an area shrouded in black fog.

The Nine Nether Power here was extremely strong, and even the air seemed to be stained with an ominous color.

Gu Yang knew that there must be more powerful Nine Nether creatures hidden here.

He held the long knife tightly, took a deep breath, and then stepped into the black fog.

The vision in the black fog was extremely poor, and Gu Yang could only rely on his keen senses to perceive the surroundings.

His steps were light and cautious, and every step was silent.

Suddenly, a strong killing intent came from the left.

Gu Yang rolled out almost instinctively, avoiding the sharp tentacles shot out from the black fog.

It was a huge one-eyed tentacle monster, its tentacles were like sharp blades, and every swing was a deadly threat.

Gu Yang did not hesitate at all and immediately fought back.

His long knife danced, turning into black light, drawing brilliant tracks in the black fog.

Every time the knife flashed, it would take away a tentacle of the one-eyed tentacle monster.

The one-eyed tentacle monster roared angrily, and its attack became more crazy.

The tentacles poured down on Gu Yang like a rainstorm, trying to tear him apart.

But Gu Yang's figure was as erratic as a ghost, shuttling between the gaps between the tentacles, and every dodge was just right.

The powerful fighting skills tempered by years of practice were fully utilized at this moment.

Compared with these Nine Nether monsters that can only activate their own power, Gu Yang's fighting power is more than a little stronger.

At this time, his knife skills became more and more sharp, and each knife pointed directly at the core of the Nine Nether One-eyed Tentacle Monster.

Finally, in a clever turn, Gu Yang's long knife pierced the center of the one-eyed tentacle monster of the Nine Nether.

Its body trembled violently, and then began to twist wildly, and the tentacles fell down weakly.

Gu Yang quickly retreated and got out of the attack range of the Nine Nether One-eyed Tentacle Monster.

He watched the huge creature struggle in the black fog, and finally turned into a cloud of black smoke and dissipated.

The battle was over, but Gu Yang did not relax at all.

He knew that in this world of the Nine Netherworld, danger was lurking at all times.

He had to stay alert to keep moving forward.

Gu Yang adjusted his breathing and then continued on the path forward.

…

Time passed, and Gu Yang had spent more than ten days in the Jiuyou World.

During this period of time, he continued to encounter strong enemies and defeated them.

Although he did not have the skills to practice the power of the Nine Netherworld, he was already able to master the use of the power of the Nine Netherworld.

In fact, many moves have been developed to activate the power of Nine Netherworlds.

One day, Gu Yang was walking through a field filled with black mist.

Suddenly, he felt a different aura. This aura contained wisdom and cunning, and was completely different from the Jiuyou creatures he had encountered before.

Gu Yang stopped, closed his eyes, and tried to sense the source of this breath with his mind.

He could feel that the aura was not filled with hostility, but rather a sense of inquiry and curiosity.

He slowly opened his eyes, and a figure vaguely appeared in the black mist in front of him.

This figure is not as aggressive as the previous Nine Nether creatures, but maintains a wait-and-see attitude.

Gu Yang watched this figure warily. He knew that in the Jiuyou world, nothing could be trusted.

"Who are you?" Gu Yang asked in a deep voice using the Jiuyou language inherited in the Temple of the Forgotten Land.

The figure slowly condensed into shape, revealing a humanoid creature wearing ancient robes.

The humanoid's robes are shabby and ancient, embroidered with unidentifiable symbols that appear to be some kind of lost script.

Its skin is pale gray without a trace of blood, giving it a strange feeling that it does not belong to a living creature.

Its hair was long and messy, as if it hadn't been taken care of for many years, and hung casually on its shoulders.

Its eyes were deep, shining with a faint blue light, looking directly at Gu Yang through the black mist, full of the brilliance of wisdom, as if it could see through everything.

Its face is sharp and angular, but it does not bear any trace of age, just like a statue that has been carved over time.

Its lips moved slightly, and it made a hoarse and ancient sound. This sound seemed to contain the vicissitudes and secrets of the Jiuyou World.

"I am the Xuncheng Elder of the nearby Dark Light City. You can call me 'Qiangu'."

The creature's voice echoed in the black mist, seeming to be testing Gu Yang's reaction.

Gu Yang remained vigilant, but a strong curiosity surged in his heart.

The creature in front of him was obviously different from any Jiuyou creature he had encountered before, and the aura exuding from it was more ancient and mysterious.

"Qiangu, why are you here?" Gu Yang asked, with an imperceptible fear in his tone.

No matter where they are, the threat from intelligent life is much more powerful than those monsters that can only use their power instinctively.

Not to mention, there is obviously another force behind this 'Qiangu'.

Qiangu smiled slightly, and there was a bit of amusement in that smile, as if he had seen through the guard in Gu Yang's heart.

"I am here, naturally, because of you."

His voice was low, with a strange rhythm, as if every word contained profound power.

Gu Yang frowned slightly. He didn't understand why this elder who called himself Qiangu was interested in him.

Or is it just being mysterious?

But no matter what, he will not let down his guard.

He knew that in the world of Jiuyou, any unknown factors could be fatal.

"I am just a traveler looking for a pure land, and I have nothing to do with your city of dark light."

Gu Yang tried to hide his vigilance and responded in a calm tone.

A deeper smile appeared on Qiangu's face, and he seemed not surprised by Gu Yang's answer.

"Traveler, do you know that you have entered the area of ​​the City of Dark Light at this time. According to the regulations, you must pay a toll fee before you can move around the City of Dark Light. Otherwise, you will be harming us. The City of Dark Light declares war!”

Gu Yang's heart froze. He didn't expect that Jiuyou World had such stupid rules.

Or is the other party talking nonsense and testing himself?

Gu Yang didn't know and didn't dare to take it lightly.

But no matter what, he would not continue to follow what the other party said casually.

After thinking about it, Gu Yang immediately replied: "Since you don't welcome me in the City of Dark Light, I'll just leave now."

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and walked in the direction he came from before.

Gu Yang's steps were firm. He did not look back, but he was constantly analyzing the situation in front of him.

At this time, Qiangu's voice sounded again, with a hint of imperceptible urgency.

"Wait! You misunderstood, I didn't mean that. On the contrary, the City of Dark Light welcomes your arrival."

Qiangu's words made Gu Yang pause slightly. He knew that the elder did not use strong methods, which at least meant that the other party did not want to start a war with him immediately.

But Gu Yang still didn't let down his guard. He slowly turned around and faced Qiangu.

"Welcome?" There was a hint of indifference in Gu Yang's voice. "It doesn't seem to be a very common thing for the elders of the City of Dark Light to welcome an outsider. Besides, you don't need an elder to do this kind of thing. do it?"

Gu Yang's gaze was as sharp as a sword, and he did not relax his vigilance against Qiangu.

He knew that in this Jiuyou world full of dangers and unknowns, every communication could be a secret war.

"Indeed, our City of Dark Light will not easily show a welcoming attitude towards an outsider."

Qiangu's voice was calm, but there was a deep meaning in it, "But the situation is different now. Our City of Dark Light is facing a huge crisis. As long as they are truly strong, we will welcome them all."

"Crisis?" Gu Yang asked tentatively, with a hint of inquiry in his voice.

Although Qiangu's attitude seemed friendly, he still didn't intend to believe it easily.

Qiangu looked at Gu Yang, the blue light in his eyes flashed slightly, as if he was weighing how much information to reveal to the traveler in front of him.

"Yes, an ancient and powerful force is awakening. It threatens the balance of the entire Jiuyou World, including our City of Dark Light."

Qiangu's voice was calm, but there was a trace of unconcealable worry in it.

Gu Yang frowned. He didn't know whether what Qiangu said was true, but he knew that even a place like Jiuyou World could not be without order and rules.

If such a crisis really exists, then he may be able to find clues to the Pure Land.

Gu Yang was silent for a moment, knowing that this was an opportunity or a trap. But no matter what, he needs more information before he can make a decision.

"I need to think about it." Gu Yang finally spoke, with a hint of firmness in his voice. "Also, what is this power you are talking about and what can I do?"

Qiangu nodded, he seemed not surprised by Gu Yang's answer.

He smiled slightly and said again:

"I know you are a strong man. Although we have never fought against each other, I can feel a strong threat from you. We in the City of Dark Light need such talents."

As Qiangu said, a strange badge seemed to appear out of thin air in his hand. It was engraved with some complex symbols and shone with a dark light.

"This is a token of the City of Dark Light. If you are willing to help us, then this badge will be yours." Qiangu handed the badge to Gu Yang.

Gu Yang did not reach out to pick it up immediately, but his eyes still maintained a clear and deep look.

"What can I get from helping you?" Gu Yang asked bluntly, "Also, before that, should you explain in detail this so-called crisis and the power of awakening."

A hint of appreciation flashed in Qiangu's eyes, "In addition to our gratitude, you will be able to obtain the protection of the City of Dark Light, as well as our knowledge and resources. Of course, if you can help us solve the crisis, then more rewards will also be given. It’s not impossible.”

"As for that crisis, I wonder if you have heard of the Sealed Land..." (End of Chapter)
