That's when Gu Shuo was compressed in all directions.

The hearts of the four monks sank to the bottom of the valley. Sure enough, in the last ten meters, the pressure on the altar increased dramatically.

Gu Shuo was extremely uncomfortable at this time. The pressure was squeezing him from all directions, and he felt that he could no longer bear it. Even if he can still endure it now, what about nine meters or eight meters away from the altar?

You must know that even if the last ten meters are not a jump, the pressure will increase. He will definitely not be able to bear it. Even at this time, he feels like he is in hell.

He shook his teeth and tried hard to lift his feet, his whole body trembling with this movement.

The body is like sieved chaff!

Sweat flowed down like a waterfall.

The expressions of the four Earth Clan monks all became ferocious. They were nervous about Gu Shuo, and they were so nervous that they lost control of their muscles.

"boom!"

Gu Shuo's raised foot fell down, and he took another step forward, and then another step. His current step distance was very small, just moving bit by bit, but he finally moved within a distance of nine meters.

The pressure increased again. Although it was not a dramatic increase, it seemed to be the last straw that broke the camel's back, making Gu Shuo overwhelmed.

There was already a pool of water flowing under his feet. From a distance of a thousand meters, the four Earth Clan monks could clearly hear Gu Shuo's breathing like a windmill.

"Huchi...huchi..."

The chief of the Earth Clan did not dare to disturb Gu Shuo, but he shouted in his heart: "Gu Shuo, hold on, as long as you get the Heart of the Earth, you will be the most noble friend of my Earth Clan! Hold on, don't fall!"

Gu Shuo raised one foot again, and the raised foot was like a leaf in the wind, shaking constantly. Gu Shuo had never had such a difficult moment, breathing heavily, moving forward bit by bit.

move.

Gu Shuo no longer cares about the Heart of the Earth or the friendship of the Earth Clan in his heart. His stubbornness is here, and it is only a few meters away. If he fails, he will never give up.

I can!

I can definitely do it!

Isn't it just pressure?

I can conquer!

"Step..." He took another step forward.

"Buzz..."

Gu Shuo made a breakthrough!

Just after this step, he broke through to the third level of the Immortal Emperor, but then Gu Shuo's expression changed drastically because he found that the pressure had increased. This was not because the pressure increased because of his advancement, but because of his breakthrough in cultivation.

Altar pressure has increased.

But Gu Shuo couldn’t bear it!

"Plop!"

Gu Shuo sat down on the ground, and his whole body began to twitch in pain. His rationality told him to retreat immediately, otherwise his body would be squeezed into a ball of mud from the outside to the inside. But in his heart, he refused to admit defeat.

There is a way!

There must be a way!

Seeing Gu Shuo sit down on the ground, the Earth Clan's leader and the four monks felt empty in their hearts and their faces turned pale. Because they knew that once they were overwhelmed, there would never be any monks who could take another step forward.

Gu Shuo failed!

The heart of the earth is so close, but so far away.

"I still have acupoints, let's give it a try!"

"Buzz..."

Divine energy surged out from the acupoints opened by Gu Shuo. The divine energy spurting out from more than two hundred acupoints made this pseudo-small universe suddenly become tougher.

“The pressure is off!”

Gu Shuo felt happy.

"Look!" Houhun, who had been looking at Gu Shuo blankly, suddenly exclaimed in extreme surprise.

The Earth Clan patriarch and two elders were standing there dejectedly. After hearing this, they looked up. They saw Gu Shuo pressing his hands on the ground, his legs trembling and trying to stand up. The four Earth Clan monks immediately tightened their grip.

fist.

"Gu Shuo, stand up!"

Sweat continued to flow to the ground, and Gu Shuo's whole body was trembling, but he stood up unswervingly. He raised his feet again and walked towards the altar. His heart was extremely suspended, because he found that he had been released

After absorbing more than 200 divine essences in acupuncture points, and under this kind of pressure, the speed of transformation of his body's Tao Yun has increased by leaps and bounds. In just a short time, he is already close to the peak of the early stage of the third level of Immortal Emperor.

If he breaks through to the fourth level of the Immortal Emperor, Gu Shuo will definitely not be able to get close to the altar again. Because of the improvement in cultivation and the increased pressure, Gu Shuo will be completely crushed.

But now it is impossible for Gu Shuo to put away the divine energy gushing out of his acupoints, because once he puts it away, he will not be able to withstand the pressure of the altar. If he wants to withstand the pressure of the altar, he must continuously spurt out divine energy. And

Spurting out divine energy will make oneself break through again. This is simply a vicious cycle.

Gu Shuo's only prayer now is to take away the Heart of the Earth before he breaks through to the fourth level of the Immortal Emperor.

Seven meters, six meters, five meters...

Immortal Emperor's third level middle stage.

Four meters, three meters, two meters...

Immortal Emperor's third level late stage.

one meter!

Gu Shuo moved hard, little by little. Although the pressure did not increase by leaps and bounds, the pressure gradually increased with every step he took. What is even more frightening is that Gu Shuo's cultivation level has gradually come to an end.

The third level peak of the Immortal Emperor.

"No!"

"Don't break through!"

Gu Shuo shouted in his heart and moved towards the altar step by step with difficulty.

Behind him, the four Earth Clan monks were so nervous that their nails dug into their palms.

Gu Shuo finally stood on the edge of the altar, stretched out his hand to grab the jade box, and took the jade box in his hand. The moment he picked up the jade box, Gu Shuo felt his body light up, and there was no trace of his body anymore.

pressure.

"this……"

Gu Shuo looked down at the jade box in his hand and saw complex patterns on the jade box. He instantly understood in his heart that this jade box was the formation of the altar. If he picked up this jade box, the altar would be useless. This

This made Gu Shuo feel empty in his heart. He originally thought that after he took the jade box to the Earth Clan leader, he asked the Earth Clan leader to allow him to practice here for a period of time. He was confident that he should be able to practice here.

Break through the fourth level of the Immortal Emperor and enter the middle stage of the Immortal Emperor.

However, now all plans have come to nothing.

He turned around and walked towards the chief of the Earth Clan. At this time, the chief of the Earth Clan was already a little out of control with excitement. His eyes were fixed on the jade box in Gu Shuo's hand. He was so excited that the muscles on his face lost control.

, trembling constantly. He looked at the jade box, as if he were watching the realm of the Immortal Lord approaching him.

"Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life!" Gu Shuo handed the jade box to the Earth Clan chief.

The earth clan leader took the jade box with trembling hands. He carefully opened the jade box and saw a fist-sized stone placed inside, like a heart.

"Heart of the Earth!"

The Earth Clan leader breathed a long sigh of relief, put away the Heart of the Earth, and looked at Gu Shuo gratefully:

"Little friend Gu, what do you want?"

Gu Shuo's face was full of fatigue: "Give me a place to live first and let me rest."

"Yes, yes! Please come with me!"

Gu Shuo staggered and followed the earth tribe leader into a cave.

"Little friend Gu, this is my cave, you can rest here."

"Thank you, senior!"

The chief of the Earth Clan left. Gu Shuo sat cross-legged and began to exercise his power and adjust his breathing. At the same time, he sorted out what he had gained.

The cultivation base has broken through to the peak of the third level of the Immortal Emperor, but Gu Shuo also knows that he is stuck here. He can feel that it is not that easy to break through the middle stage of the Immortal Emperor. And he doesn't know how long it will take them to pass this level.

Then observe the divine energy flowing in your body.

It was too pure, which would greatly improve his combat effectiveness. Then it disappeared. There was no improvement in other aspects. But this made Gu Shuo very satisfied. He was able to break through the Immortal Emperor so quickly.

The third level, and directly reached the peak of the third level of Immortal Emperor, which saved himself a hundred years of time.

The next morning.

Gu Shuo had not fully recovered. After all, the divine energy in his acupoints had been consumed too much and had not been completely replenished. But he had fully recovered mentally. When he walked out of the cave, he saw the head of the Earth Clan.

Standing outside with his hands behind his back, his back turned to himself. Hearing the footsteps, he turned his head and looked at Gu Shuo, his face full of kindness and kindness:

"back to normal?"
