An endless dizziness filled Gu Yun's body, and his consciousness gradually began to blur, making his entire body feel light and weightless.
The golden light emitted from the rune became increasingly intense, almost enveloping Gu Yun's entire body.
When Gu Yun opened his eyes again, his face showed surprise, as he found himself in a completely unfamiliar environment.
This place was vast and boundless, with the sky and earth almost merging in the distance, presenting a chaotic color.
"Where am I?" Gu Yun's face showed surprise. He had clearly been in his room, only intending to cut off that strange rune: "Could I be dreaming?"
At that moment, a sharp laugh came from the sky: "Boy, don't waste your thoughts. This is the chaotic space of this divine lord."
"Who are you?" Gu Yun followed the voice and saw a small golden figure hovering in mid-air, only palm-sized, but with an extremely dazzling golden light.
"Who are you, and why did you bring me here?"
"Boy, I didn't expect you to have such courage, daring to touch this divine lord's divine seal! Since you are still of some use to me, I will temporarily spare your life!" the small golden figure said coldly.
"Divine seal, could it be that strange rune? Could it really be the reason for the decline in my spiritual power?" Gu Yun's heart sank.
"You are right. The reason for the decline in your cultivation is precisely this divine lord's divine seal!"
The small golden figure's words shocked Gu Yun. He had only just thought about it and hadn't even spoken, yet this small golden figure could see through his thoughts?
Suddenly, anger filled Gu Yun's heart. The hardships of the past three years, the ridicule, and the insults all surged up. The disappearance of his spiritual power was due to this parasite.
"If not for my special circumstances, I wouldn't even care about your meager spiritual power." The small golden figure snorted.
"I don't care what kind of divine lord or divine respect you are! Return my cultivation, or I would rather die than be your slave!" Gu Yun roared.
"Ungrateful!" The small golden figure snorted: "I am of the Golden Yuan Divine Clan. It is your good fortune that I have chosen you. In the vast world, there are countless beings who would be willing to become my servants. By planting my divine seal in you and making you my divine servant, it is an honor for you."
"I would rather die than be a servant. Three years ago, I was at the seventh stage of spiritual power, but now I am only at the first stage. In your eyes, I am like an ant. Why do you bother with me?" Gu Yun said angrily: "Don't deceive me. Look at you; you don't even look like a divine lord."
After hearing Gu Yun's words, the small golden figure pondered for a moment and sighed: "Three thousand years ago, I encountered a great calamity and nearly perished. In a panic, I mistakenly entered here. I spent three thousand years recondensing my divine essence. Three years ago, I had just recovered and could only choose you, who has low cultivation but excellent potential, as my divine servant."
The small golden figure waved his hand, and starlight appeared in the sky, with various illusory beings floating in it.
"Silong, eight hundred feet long, with a lifespan of thirty thousand years, can devour all things in the world!"
"Jiaobei, with a body like silver and eyes like the sun, can see through life and death!"
...
"What you see and hear now is just a drop in the ocean. Do you hope to spend your entire life in this barren Cyan World, without wanting to see the vast world or achieve immortality? As long as you are loyal to me, when my divine power is restored, I will ensure that your life is not in vain."
Indeed, the small golden figure's words were very tempting. However, Gu Yun knew that he could not trust this parasite that was consuming his spiritual power.
No matter how grand his words were, he had to remain vigilant.
"I have no interest in what you say. Take back your divine seal, and we will part ways. I believe there are many powerful beings who would be willing to become your servants!" Gu Yun said coldly: "In the Nanyue Kingdom, there are many powerful beings. If you are truly powerful, why don't you choose them as your servants? Our sect leader is also a peak Lingshi realm powerful being. Why don't you try him?"
"Lingshi realm?" The Golden Yuan Divine Lord laughed: "For human cultivators, spiritual power is divided into five realms: Lingzhe, Lingshi, Lingdan, and Lingzun. Do you know that there are higher cultivation levels above the Lingzun realm?"
"Above the Lingzun realm, there are even more powerful beings?" Gu Yun's dream was to become a Lingzun realm powerful being. It was said that over a thousand years ago, the Nanyue Kingdom produced a Lingzun ancestor, but this ancestor had been missing for many years.
"You humans in the small world are like frogs at the bottom of a well, not understanding the vastness of the universe. Even if you cultivate for thousands of years and reach the Lingzun realm, you still cannot break through the void and leave the small world. In front of the Silong and Jiaobei, you are like ants. At the height of my power, I could destroy the Nanyue Kingdom with a wave of my hand!"
Looking at the illusory beings in the sky, Gu Yun smiled bitterly: "What does this have to do with me? I only want to improve my spiritual power, but you only consume it. I said I would rather die than be a slave!"
"Who would have thought that I, the Golden Yuan, would end up like this! In this small world, even the lowest cultivators are not interested in becoming my divine servants!" The small golden figure sighed: "If there were other choices, would I choose you? Boy, let's make a deal. As long as you sincerely help me, I promise not to consume your spiritual power! To me, this spiritual power is useless; what I need is divine power."
Although removing the small golden figure would be the best choice, Gu Yun was currently powerless. As long as the small golden figure promised not to consume his spiritual power, he could勉强达成协议。
“我不能完全相信你的话,如果我苦心修炼十多年,好不容易达到灵师境界,结果被你抽取一空怎么办?”古云想试探一下这小金人的底线,从他刚才的话中,古云也得知这小金人实力大损,否则怎么可能对自己如此客气。
“哈哈哈……”小金人大笑起来:“本神尊让你开开眼界!你现在所在的地方是本神尊的混沌空间,也是我在那场劫难中最大的收获。此处充满开天辟地形成的混沌之气,超出灵力千百倍,所以灵草灵木在这里的生长速度也比外界快上千百倍。你随便培育一些灵草,光靠这些灵物之力,足以让你在一年之内踏入灵师境界。到那时,你就知道本神尊根本不把你这点灵力看在眼里。”
作为一名修炼者,古云自然清楚灵草灵木的价值,那是可以炼制丹药,提升修为的珍贵宝物,只有那些底蕴深厚的家族才会种植灵草,炼制丹药。
想当初,古云修为刚刚倒退的时候,门内的长老还赐给他一枚珍贵的增灵丹,那可是灵师境界的修炼者才舍得服用的珍贵丹药。这枚丹药引起了无数核心弟子的垂涎。
可惜这枚丹药并没有阻止古云修为的倒退,却因此让古云受到同门们的嫉妒和愤恨,怪他浪费珍贵的增灵丹。
如果真如小金人所说,有充足的灵草,自己的修为定然会突飞猛进。
“这混沌空间暂时对你开放,只要你心意一动,就可以进出!”金元古神几乎是咬着牙说,心中暗道:“想来这小千世界中,并没有什么大能。稍微透露混沌世界的信息也无妨。等我神力恢复,将这小子彻底收为神奴,或者杀掉,以绝后患!”
古云咬咬牙,沉声说:“好,我答应你,希望你作为神族,能够信守自己的承诺!”
混沌空间的确有很大的吸引力,但与金元古神合作,无异于与虎谋皮!
可是古云现在对金元古神无计可施,只能暂时合作。
心念一动,古云便离开了混沌空间。这种感觉十分奇妙,有一种非常微弱的眩晕感,而且古云能够感觉到,混沌空间就在自己的身体里,只是不能完全掌控。看来金元古神也在自己身上留了后手。
如此进出两三次,古云很快掌握了其中的要领,也更加得心应手,只是频繁的进出,眩晕感有些加重,古云坐在椅子上,稍作休息。
“砰!”一声巨响,勉强修好的门板又被推开。
“你看看你像个什么样子,废物,古家的脸面都被你丢光了!”
还不等古云反应过来,一个恼怒的声音传了进来。
“大伯?你怎么来了?”古云有些惊讶。
来人乃是古家四大长老之首,古云的大伯古飞龙。他在古家地位很高,仅次于古家的族长、古云的父亲古飞天。
古家距离此地数百里,古飞龙怎么会出现在这里?自从自己拜入青云门,古飞龙一次都没有来看过自己。
“你还好意思问我为什么来?古家的脸面都被你丢尽了!”古飞龙一开口便是怒气冲冲:“当年古家花费多少心血,才让你进入青云门?可是你,根本不知珍惜,修为竟然一落再落,现在又被逐出青云门,成为一名杂役,你怎么对得起古家上下?”
