Chapter 1388

The setting for the green camouflage was very physically draining . As soon as they arrived at the intersection point, Gu Xijiu was already a little exhausted . She leaned on Di Fuyi's chest and said, "Can you take over from here and break the wizardry barrier? I am a little exhausted . "

Di Fuyi saw her pale face and knew exactly how tired she was . She worked the most throughout the entire journey, as she was the one who broke a fresh path for the team . If he were to work the same amount as she did, he would be tired as well . Moreover, her spiritual level had just attained level ten .

He held one of her hands . "Let us take a rest here . Come, I will ma.s.sage you to help dredge your channels and collaterals . " He pulled her over and made her sit . Slowly, he then ma.s.saged her back and her limbs .

The rest of them were tired as well . The land on the eighth peak was different from anywhere else . The gravity was stronger by a few folds . Hence, their movements were limited, as lifting their limbs simply felt like weightlifting every time they moved . If their spiritual level were any lower, they would be easily crushed by their own body weight under the gravitational pull .

Under the current circ.u.mstance, running a 10-mile distance was even more tiring than a normal run of 100 miles . The energy that they had put in the run for the past hour had been much more than they usually did for 10 hours straight .

They were merely running in the middle of the line, between Gu Xijiu and Di Fuyi, so they hardly needed to do anything . However, they were already sweating profusely even just by running . Their muscles started to ache from the run . Gu Xijiu would be even more tired, given that she was the one who took the lead .

They finally realized how dangerous it was to be on the eighth peak . If they broke the wizardry barrier before by themselves, they still would not make it out alive from the hill . They would have, most probably, died the moment they broke through the barrier .

Along the way, it was Gu Xijiu who decided on the path and guided them on how to build their formation . She even told them how to mask their own scents .

Gu Xijiu did almost everything from planning to execution . As for Di Fuyi, he was more like her follower and stayed close by her side . He would only help her with some ma.s.sages to make her feel better and stay out of the rest of the affairs .

He had always been this way for the past eight years, so the people were used to having Gu Xijiu as the leader . They only listened to her orders, as their admiration for her grew each day . As for Di Fuyi, who had been wildly unpredictable, they chose to pay no attention to him, as long as they did not offend him in any way .

Right now, everyone started looking for a spot to sit down and take as much rest as they possibly could . Every second counted . Gu Xijiu had said it before that the wizardry barrier on the eighth peak should never be damaged . At most, they could only open up a pa.s.sage for immediate exit . Opening the pa.s.sage was a difficult task . Hence, everyone was required in making an effort, together .

Di Fuyi was very experienced in ma.s.saging . Also, he transferred some of his spiritual power to Gu Xijiu along the process so that she could recover her strength better .

She pulled herself into his arms and directed an audio to him . "Is this a trial for me to endure?"

Di Fuyi responded with a smile . "I thought you did not wish to be protected under my wings . Instead, you wanted to fly the heights with me, side by side . You have to be really strong to stand by my side . "

Gu Xijiu pinched her lips . "But… But, I will still be tired when the path gets rough . I need a shoulder to lean on . "

Di Fuyi pulled her closer into his arms . "Hmm, am I not letting you lean on me right now?"

Gu Xijiu did not know what to answer .

The mussel could no longer hold his frustration . "Celestial Master Zuo, please allow me to get this straight . You let my master do everything and wait comfortably to enjoy the outcome . You are even more capable than her, but you let her take the lead instead and make her risk the danger . Take a look at other couples . The men will always take the lead and protect their women . It is what true men do, unlike you . Humph, I can no longer keep quiet about it . "

Di Fuyi took a look at the mussel and responded with disdain, "If you cannot keep it to yourself, I suggest you keep your sh.e.l.ls shut . "

The mussel was speechless .

Gu Xijiu clearly knew that Di Fuyi was trying to train her . All he truly wanted was to make her stronger, so she could advance with him shoulder to shoulder as his wife . She was only whining about it because she was too exhausted . She did not really mind what he made her do .

Furthermore, it was Di Fuyi who told her everything before the journey started, including the route and the formation . What he did was to keep up her prestige .

She took another look at the mussel . "You are not allowed to comment on him in such a way . If you talk any more nonsense, I will smash your sh.e.l.ls!"

The mussel was shocked . It was clearly hurt by her words . It was true when people said that outsiders should stay out of a couple's business . The mussel closed its sh.e.l.ls and went into another corner to reflect quietly .

Gu Xijiu was reminded of something . "By the way, you should be the one who teaches our children in the future . "

Di Fuyi was excellent at training his disciples . Gu Xijiu was really impressed . Without a doubt, their children's potential could be greatly cultivated under his guide .

His hand froze at her waist, as her words obviously struck him . He answered with a smile . "We should only talk about it when we have one . "

Gu Xijiu was thrilled at the thought of it . "We cannot have children in the core array, but we will definitely make babies when we are out . On the other hand, do you prefer a boy or a girl?" He could see the hopes in her eyes, as she was already picturing their family of three or four having fun together .

Di Fuyi was stunned . He then broke into a smile . "We shall not rush into having children . You are still a child, too . I shall take good care of you first . "

Gu Xijiu did not know what to answer .

She was agitated . "I am not a child!" She was already 25 years old, according to how they measured someone's age .

Di Fuyi planted a gentle kiss on her forehead . "Hmm, you have outgrown the age of a child . However, you are still a child in my eyes . "

Gu Xijiu was speechless . What he said was true, as he was already a few thousand years old . As compared to him, she was still very young and tender .

She threw him a harsh look . "Is there anyone who is not a child to you?" He could be anyone's ancestor with his age .

Di Fuyi smiled and whispered in her ear, "I do not see Gu Xietian as a child . "

Gu Xijiu was astonished .

With a wry sense of humor, she teased him, "Looks like you have to call him your father . "

Di Fuyi sighed . "That is why I do not wish to see him . "

Gu Xijiu could not hold back her amus.e.m.e.nt . She stopped teasing him . He did not seem to be very interested in having children . However, he seemed to be very interested in the means of having children .

She decided to stop discussing the topic, as she would easily get pregnant when they were out of here . She was certain that he would cherish his own child when they had one . She could almost picture their children crawling around him and giving him a headache . She smiled at the happy thought of her imagination . Her expression immediately brightened up .

Di Fuyi sat with her in his embrace . He seemed carefree, but his eyes were always watching their surroundings . It was not his first time to be on the eighth peak . Others were unaware, but only he knew clearly that the evil energy had increased tremendously as compared to eight years ago . The evil energy had acc.u.mulated to the point where it could attain its corporeal likeness anytime . The number of the beasts had also increased, and they became even more ferocious .

The eighth peak was a place to acc.u.mulate all the evil energy in the world and purify them . When the evil energy increased, so would the number of the beasts . The auspicious power that the eighth peak had was to purify the evil energy that it had acc.u.mulated so that both energies could reach an equilibrium . When the world was at peace, the evil energy would not be extensive, hence it would be easier to be purified . However, the amount of even energy that he was sensing now was clearly too much . What had happened outside?

He tried to foresee the situation by making a prediction on his fingers . He sighed, a few moments later, as he could barely tell anything . He then observed the tips of his fingers . All of them were supple and pink . There seemed to be nothing odd .

For eight years, he had been taking his days off from the outside world . Without his guard, something big must have happened . Was it Long Fan who was back for his evil business?

It should not be Mo Zhao, as it would take him a few decades to recover from the last injury . However, from what he could sense from the level of evil energy, Mo Zhao should be able to recover better under its influence . He would probably require less time than was earlier predicted .

There was a sense of concern in his eyes . Mo Zhao was his opponent, so he had to make sure to eradicate him from existence to spare all future trouble .

They were still on the eighth peak and dangers were everywhere, so Gu Xijiu dared not waste any more time . She stood up after taking a 15-minute break . "Let us begin! We shall take better rest when we finally leave this place . "

The rest of them stood in approval . They did according to what Gu Xijiu had told them to and formed a formation .

Di Fuyi stood watching as they proceeded . He did not intend to help .

Gu Xijiu was very anxious about it . As Di Fuyi had once told her, the opening of the wizardry barrier would trigger the beasts on the eighth peak . For one full minute, all of them would be completely exposed in front of the beasts . Therefore, they should all be prepared for a hard battle . If they could make it past the first three minutes, only then they could they call it a successful evacuation .

Under Gu Xijiu's guide, all colors of light could be seen flickering through the air . Slowly, the seemingly impeccable wizardry barrier broke and formed a foggy door .

Everything was as what Di Fuyi had predicted . As soon as the opening started forming, they could hear the beasts bellowing with rage from the depths of the hill . The ground started shaking accompanied with the howling of strong wind . Soon, four ferocious beasts emerged before their eyes .

Gu Xijiu's expression changed . Di Fuyi once told her that they would only trigger one or two beasts . However, the number was double now .

The strongest beasts could easily impose a raging momentum on their surroundings . Trees were split and crushed as they approached . Their hearts jerked at what they saw .

Without enough courage, one would not stand a chance in fighting the beasts . Instead, they would completely lose their stand under the beasts' violent rage and fall to their knees as they trembled with fear .

Fortunately, all the men present had their spiritual power at level nine and above, so they could still hold their ground together . However, some of them were s.h.i.+vering a little, as fear slowly radiated through their bodies . If Gu Xijiu had not told them about it before, they would have run away frantically .

Di Fuyi used to be quite at ease . However, the change of situation had obviously concerned him, as he frowned and became suddenly wary . Quietly, he performed a spell under his sleeves and quickly found his way back to Gu Xijiu's side .

Gu Xijiu was scared but was not at all lost . She had clearly displayed her excellent mentality by a.s.signing the men to different positions to guard their ground . The mussel and Lu Wu were both prepared to meet the battle .

As for Feng Zhao, even though its spiritual level had attained level seven, its true quality was merely a level-five beast . It would still tremble in fear at the sight of the level eight beasts . All four of its feet started s.h.i.+vering . It could feel a p.r.i.c.kle of fear sweeping through its body . In fact, it was considered as courageous, at least it was still standing . If there were other level five beasts, they would already be cowering in terror .

The four beasts were all different . There were Tao Wu, Redshank, Chaos and Rhinoceros . Anyone of the beasts could easily tear all nine of them apart in a swift . Now, there were four of them .

Gu Xijiu did not let her anxiety show, but her hands started trembling with cold sweats .

Di Fuyi encouraged her . "Hold yourself together . You can do this . "

Gu Xijiu took a breath before she continued bravely, "Everyone, it is time for a challenge! There is only one choice in this fight; we either win or die! Don't worry, do as I say, I am 90 percent hopeful about the fight!"

Her words were surely encouraging, as their hearts were instantly set afire .

"It is right; we have to fight to survive!"

"Don't worry, Xijiu . Tell us what to do, and we shall do it!"

"Death is the last resort . There is nothing else to be fearful of!"

The four beasts came lunging at them violently .

It was a tough fight .

Apparently, the formation that Gu Xijiu had come up with was efficient in fighting the beasts . All the beasts were ma.s.sive . As a comparison, all nine of them were like small Ping-Pong b.a.l.l.s fighting against four giant basketb.a.l.l.s . However, their formation had successfully created a unique aura, restraining the beasts from intruding their zone .

The beasts broke into thundering howls, as the men fought them furiously with their weapons . All forms of light flickered across the battlefield .

Their shadows fluttered in the air . Gu Xijiu's leaders.h.i.+p skill was truly amazing, as she was able to alter their tactics according to the situation . She instructed them to change their formation from time to time to tackle the beasts . She was not too loud, but loud enough to be heard across the field . Her command was the backbone of the team, as they did according to her every instruction . They did as told regardless of the dangers that lied ahead, even when Gu Xijiu's instruction was to fight the beasts straight on .

During the difficult fight, some of them were clearly in danger . Luckily, before they were completely endangered during their close encounters with the beasts, Gu Xijiu would always emerge out of thin air and bring them back to safety by teleportation .

Three minutes was usually a short time, like a flash . However, under their current situation, even a minute felt like an eternity .

A minute pa.s.sed . Some of them were lightly injured .

Two minutes pa.s.sed . Some of them were severely injured .

Regardless of their injuries, they still fought with great determination . None of them fell back .

When it was almost three minutes, the door was finally open . Gu Xijiu commanded them to escape through the door one by one .

Gu Xijiu and Di Fuyi would be the last two to leave .

They lunged and sprang through the door one by one . The lesser the people, the more pressure Gu Xijiu and Di Fuyi would have to bear .

When the mussel and Lu Wu escaped, the pressure that both of them faced was beyond comparison . They held their breaths, as every second was a fight for their lives .

"Xijiu, get out now!" Di Fuyi commanded .

It was their initial plan . Di Fuyi would be the last one to stay behind .

When Di Fuyi told Gu Xijiu about the plan, she agreed to it, as she thought that nothing would come in his way . Nothing could harm him . He would still escape safely even he was the last one to leave .

However, now that he had to face all four beasts on his own, Gu Xijiu finally realized how dangerous it would be for him to face them alone .

Even with her fighting alongside with him, the beasts were still able to harm him . There was already blood at the corners of his mouth . If she escaped and left him alone, the consequences would be very terrible .

He would probably not make it .

"You and I will leave together!" Gu Xijiu changed her mind suddenly .
