#178 - The sword's heart is clear?
“Yes, you’re right.”
Gu Yuan's expression remained unchanged, he only said:
“On the Sky Dragon Boat, there is the Yin God giant, Ancestor Lonelywood True Monarch, sitting in command. Logically speaking, no demons or monsters should be able to sneak in. However, the essence of the Formless Yin Demon is just a wisp of thought, without any demonic aura. Moreover, this Formless Yin Demon was only planted on you today. The person behind the scenes paid an extremely high price to barely deceive Ancestor Lonelywood.”
“But now, this demonic thought has stirred up and fused with the dark desires in your heart, replaced your original consciousness, and stolen your origin, causing you to gradually die… So, Qiu Zhi, rest assured, I will avenge you. After all…”
Gu Yuan sighed: “Your death, ultimately, is somewhat related to me…”
Qiu Zhi didn't say anything more, because her consciousness had already dissipated, and her body had begun to shrivel, as if the essence within it had been completely sucked away by some terrifying thing.
The seven eyes on her face all opened, faintly radiating a demonic and evil light as they rotated.
Finally, the corpse collapsed, turning into a pile of ashes, leaving only a gray demonic shadow in place, exuding a terrifyingly cold aura.
Gu Yuan didn't stop it, because as he said, the real Qiu Zhi had already died.
The menial disciple Qiu Zhi just now was actually just the Formless Yin Demon maintaining Qiu Zhi's original memories and consciousness, making her appear alive.
Now that the Formless Yin Demon no longer wants to hide, Qiu Zhi has naturally truly died…
“Boy, how did you discover there was something wrong with the medicinal cuisine?”
The Formless Yin Demon let out a hoarse and low voice, carrying a hint of eerie sound like the yin wind scraping from a cavern. When Qiu Yue heard it, she only felt a cold air invading her body, almost freezing her stiff.
Gu Yuan waved his hand and released a clear and pure water-attribute spiritual light to protect her, and then leisurely said: “At first, I indeed didn't discover anything, but…”
He reached out and overturned several dishes of medicinal cuisine on the table, the fragrant and delicious dishes spilling all over the ground.
Immediately afterward, Gu Yuan's water-attribute spiritual light swept across, pulling out several subtle and imperceptible wisps of gray-white aura from within.
These gray-white auras twisted and began to pollute Gu Yuan's water-attribute spiritual light.
Gu Yuan's water-attribute spiritual light was formed by refining water essence and Gui water essence with his own true qi, being extremely yin and soft, extremely pure and clean, and most capable of restraining filthy spells. Even Yin Lightning and Demonic Lightning divine abilities couldn't pollute it.
However, when faced with this gray-white aura, it was powerless to resist, almost retreating step by step. It could be imagined that the essence of this gray-white aura must be extremely high and exceptionally terrifying.
If Gu Yuan had eaten it just now, the consequences would have been very serious.
Gu Yuan rolled up his water-attribute spiritual light and sealed these gray-white auras in a jade bottle.
“Although these things are hidden very well, almost colorless and odorless.”
Gu Yuan smiled and said: “I am not talented, but my swordplay has made some slight progress during this time. I just happen to be able to sense some dangers. Although I don't know what's hidden in these medicinal cuisines, knowing that there is danger, I naturally won't eat it.”
“Sword Heart Clarity?!”
A trace of shock and solemnity appeared in the Formless Yin Demon's eerie voice, and then it said again: “No, impossible!”
“Based on your age and your cultivation level, it is absolutely impossible for you to reach such a high level of swordplay. At most, you have only touched some of the surface…”
Sword Heart Clarity is a profound realm of swordplay, possessing unpredictable power, capable of sensing all kinds of dangers, having the ability to sense danger and avoid it before the autumn wind moves and the cicada notices, and being able to clearly discern the murderous intent and some situations in the dark.
A cultivator with such a realm cannot be ambushed or assassinated unless the difference in cultivation is too great!
Gu Yuan's master, True Person He Ling, was only one step away from reaching this realm.
“Could it be that you forgot about my Innate Sword Heart?”
Gu Yuan slowly drew out the Silver Flood Dragon Sword, gently stroking the extremely sharp blade. The blade that could cut gold and shatter jade didn't even cut his finger skin:
“My sword heart can be considered a different kind of Sword Heart Clarity. Although I haven't fully tapped into the potential of my Innate Sword Heart, I have also dug out three-tenths of its potential. Although it's just the surface of Sword Heart Clarity, it's enough to deal with you.”
The Formless Yin Demon was silent for a moment, and only said: “Since that's the case, then why haven't you made a move yet?”
“Naturally, it's because I'm very curious about your identity.”
Gu Yuan smiled, with some deep meaning in his smile: “Just as you said just now, Ancestor Lonelywood is sitting in command on this Sky Dragon Boat, and there must be the core monitoring all directions of this giant magical treasure.”
“Ancestor Lonelywood's own state is somewhat abnormal, and the Sky Dragon Boat is ultimately just a magical treasure, not a living thing.”
“You, or rather the mastermind behind you, shouldn't be from the Demonic Path, but more likely the internal forces of Medicine King Mountain! Only in this way can you deceive the Sky Dragon Boat and Ancestor Lonelywood!”

Speaking of this, the smile on Gu Yuan's face faded, and he said: “So, who are you? Why do you want to kill me?”
“I have only recently joined Medicine King Mountain and have not offended anyone. Since you want to kill me, it means that my very existence is hindering your goals and interests.”
“So, are you from the aristocratic family faction or the sect lineage?”
The Formless Yin Demon didn't say anything more, or perhaps this in itself was an answer.
It raised its hand and released a demonic fire, striking towards Gu Yuan. Then, the seven eyes on its face all opened, emitting an extremely evil demonic light.
These seven demonic lights gathered together, and even it itself, like a candle in front of a raging fire, quickly melted away, fusing with these seven demonic lights, turning into a gray-black demonic light with an aura of death, silence, and gloom, covering towards Gu Yuan.
Although Gu Yuan didn't know much about the Demonic Path, he felt a chill down his spine at this moment.
This demonic light was obviously extremely dangerous!
It was the all-out blow transformed from the Formless Yin Demon burning its origin!
Wherever the demonic light passed, the walls, wooden pillars, and even other things in the room seemed to be eroded by time, turning into ashes one after another.
Without hesitation, Gu Yuan formed hand seals with both hands and pinched out the Treasure Bottle Seal.
Strands of water vapor spiritual light gathered, turning into a jade-white Primordial Water Treasure Bottle with a large belly and a small mouth, emitting a kind of rounded perfection, transparent and flawless meaning.
Once the Primordial Water Treasure Bottle Seal was cast, the light of this treasure bottle greatly increased, and at the same time, it emitted a huge devouring and absorbing power, protecting Gu Yuan while also swallowing all of the gray-black demonic light that enveloped him.
Crack! Crack!
Until it swallowed most of the demonic light, the Primordial Water Treasure Bottle seemed unable to withstand the erosion force within it, and was covered with dense cracks, and then directly shattered.
At this time, the Silver Flood Dragon Sword had already transformed into a dazzling and sharp sword light, carrying an aura of slashing and destroying everything, and shattered these demonic lights with one sword.
