"So you must leave Chengyun Sect as soon as possible, head in this direction—all the arrangents have already been made for you, and there is a special spiritual vein there that’s sufficient to let you break through from the Purple Mansion Stage to the Spirit Origin Stage," an Elder said, taking out a map and handing it to Gu Shanhai.
Another Supre Elder was swift and soon took out a storage ring, stating, "Inside there are Eight Diagrams class heavenly treasures and earth marvels you need for your breakthrough in the Purple Mansion Stage, as well as a large number of resources required for cultivation in the Foundation Establishnt Stage and the Spirit Plants you need."
"I will accompany you for a part of the way but not too far. After I’ve seen you off, I will use the Life Reflection Mirror to erase all of your mories of returning, to prevent the knowledge from affecting us."
Knowledge Tribulation is a tribulation based on common knowledge; as long as they do not have the corresponding mories, naturally, they cannot form the corresponding behaviors.
Without knowledge, how could one form common sense?
Gu Shanhai was also startled; he hadn’t expected Chengyun Sect to go this far.
Originally, he just thought of asking them to help him leave, but he hadn’t expected them to arrange everything for him, including how to return.
"Thank you, Elders," Gu Shanhai understood why Chengyun Sect had endured for such a long ti.
As for any traces of himself, there was no need to worry. With so many Mountain Gate Arrays and sect-defending treasures in Chengyun Sect, they could certainly help Gu Shanhai erase the traces of his departure, not to ntion that the ones operating them were a group in the Peeping Dao Stage. Even if the Juxia Sect and Feather Transformation Sect ca over, they would not find any traces.
"Take care, and return quickly," Xi Huan said sowhat helplessly.
As his voice fell, Gu Shanhai was imdiately teleported away.
And the next instant, the mory was erased, and the crowd ca back to their senses sowhat confusedly, then quickly reacted, "Wait, where’s Shanhai? Wasn’t he supposed to co back?"
"Could sothing have happened? No, that’s not right. It seems that the Eight Diagrams class heavenly treasures and the Foundation Establishnt Stage cultivation resources I prepared for Shanhai have disappeared."
"And that map, why do I have no mory related to that map?"
"An incident? We used the Life Reflection Mirror ourselves to erase a small portion of our mory. Everyone in the entire sect has lost the corresponding mory."
Everyone present was an old monster in the Peeping Dao Stage, and they instantly deduced that the mory had been erased willingly. If it wasn’t voluntary, even if soone in the Peeping Dao Stage held the Life Reflection Mirror, they wouldn’t have been able to tamper with their mories.
Even Knowledge Tribulation couldn’t change their mories and could only affect them indirectly, so there was no other way but to do it willingly.
"Should we look for him?" The aning behind the question was whether they should search for Gu Shanhai.
"No need to search. The Sect Leader probably knows sothing about this. The reason we sent Shanhai away is likely that there is danger here," Xi Huan said calmly.
Everyone instantly understood. It must be because of Knowledge Tribulation!
If there was any danger to Chengyun Sect, then it was them who had been affected by Knowledge Tribulation.
Even though they had subconsciously overlooked Shen Heng’s situation, Gu Shanhai had reminded them in his unique way about the dangers Knowledge Tribulation posed to them.
Therefore, they all knew if they went looking for Gu Shanhai now, they would likely try to harm him because of so matters. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have sent him away from Chengyun Sect and then erased their traces, making it impossible for themselves to find him.
Of course, if they wanted to find him, they could still easily do so. With the power of Chengyun Sect, finding soone was an easy task, even with the items they had given Gu Shanhai. Even if they had erased the traces of those items, there would still be a trace left behind, and they would still be able to find him.
Elsewhere, Gu Shanhai, along with Little White and Azure Dragon, also seed bewildered, finding themselves suddenly in the wilderness.
"F*ck, these people are super-efficient. If it weren’t for the fact that I still needed to talk to them and they had to explain things, they could have made the arrangents within a second," Gu Shanhai hurriedly stored Little White and Azure Dragon, and after checking his belongings, he quickly left.
Out of caution, they did not directly send Gu Shanhai to the spiritual vein region marked on the map but instead left him with nearly a hundred thousand li to cover, a distance Gu Shanhai would have to travel himself, resorting to the Five Elents Great Escape technique to avoid leaving any clues.
These people were all sharp-minded and would not actively co looking for him. This arrangent was also for the security of Gu Shanhai.
"First, find a place to transcend the calamity, and don’t worry about the inner tribulation. With the Heart Demon Avatar, no matter how many co, they’re just nutrients."
"Killing tribulation hasn’t fully ford yet, and Shen Heng ran out of life, it’s most likely stillborn."
"Now it’s just the external tribulation left. Judging by the situation, it’s probably the Heavenly Tribulation."
Gu Shanhai looked up at the sky, where the once clear weather was gradually gathering dark clouds, and the Heart Demon Avatar within the foundation of Gu Shanhai’s cultivation was also crumbling bit by bit.
"Lucky to have the Five Elents Great Escape, otherwise, I’d really have had to leave," Gu Shanhai felt the terrifying energy brewing within those dark clouds. It was really a ruthless move, using the highest level of Heavenly Tribulation against him.
It’s the kind of Heavenly Tribulation only those at the Peeping Dao Stage would experience, which could turn at least ten-thousand-mile radius into flat ground.
Use the tribulation to temper the body? If it were a Foundation Establishnt Stage Heavenly Tribulation, Gu Shanhai could still pull off so fancy moves, but with the Peeping Dao Stage’s tribulation, he feared even his ashes would be annihilated.
In an instant, the demon avatar shattered, and terrifying thunderbolts fell from the clouds in a flash.
Inside the ten-thousand-mile radius, countless rays descended.
"This judgnt is terrifying," Gu Shanhai navigated through the thunder.
Thunder belongs to shock, and in the Five Elents, shock is associated with wood; thus, Gu Shanhai used the Wood Escape to move through the tribulation.
Logically, his Five Elents Great Escape should directly make the tribulation lose its judgnt on him and subside, but that’s under normal circumstances. Now, he had taken away the protagonist’s life force, and the kind that’s determined to kill him, how could it end so easily?
Therefore, he could only dodge.
Relentlessly relying on Wood Escape to keep moving away from it, he inevitably suffered nurous injuries.
The power was too dominant. Even with his profound Five Elents Great Escape, just like when Gu Shanhai and Shen Heng dueled, he could afford countless mistakes, whereas Shen Heng could only afford one. Faced with this unknown Heavenly Tribulation, Gu Shanhai was in a similar predicant; a single misstep could cause substantial harm.
Fortunately, his Spirit Root Ability had endowed him with a powerful vitality, allowing his body to continuously cycle between being charred and regenerating.
"The Five Elents Great Escape is still not enough. It can handle equals, but against sothing too strong, it’s a bit of a stretch. I need to upgrade it."
"The Inner Demon Tribulation is here too!"
Gu Shanhai suddenly felt a trace of irritability, and all sorts of desires started to amplify.
However, for Gu Shanhai, this was good news.
The Heart Demon Avatar was slowly reforming. Previously, it had bought Gu Shanhai three minutes and was completely pulverized, but fortunately, within Gu Shanhai’s body, whether it was Spirit Plant or Divine Skills, all could regrow like chives as long as he didn’t die.
A great deal of negative emotions were devoured by the Heart Demon Avatar, resulting in a vague human shape beginning to re-coalesce within his cultivation foundation.
"I hope the inner tribulation can help out and quickly restore my Heart Demon Avatar. I’m counting on it to work with the Five Elents Great Escape to dodge the tribulation."
Gu Shanhai knew that relying solely on the Five Elents Great Escape, he would either be exhausted to death or have to go back and co again.
The logical choice would be the latter, to return to "The First Epoch" and recuperate in a mid-level area before coming back, but Gu Shanhai understood this was pointless.
Dodging calamities was not supposed to be played this way. If he ca back, he would have to go through the tribulations again.
Instead, by constantly gathering data from this tribulation and further perfecting the Heart Demon Avatar, he could truly dodge this tribulation, and even manage to hide so securely that the tribulation couldn’t find him at all.
True knowledge cos from practice, and relying on data alone is mostly armchair strategizing.
