Treasure Gathering Immortal Furnace

As the Xuan Yang Sword Sect sought the assistance of three Nascent Soul cultivators.

Meanwhile, in Jian Ge, far away in the Great Yan Dynasty, things were not idle either.

The day of the duel with the Xuan Yang Sword Sect is approaching, and it seems that the Nascent Soul stage patriarch of the Sword Pavilion, who has been in seclusion, will also emerge today!

At this moment, on the vast square of Sword Pavilion, many disciples had been waiting for a long time.

Meanwhile, Gu Xin Lao Zu and Xiao Jin were also paying attention to the secluded training cliff behind the Sword Pavilion.

"Senior brother has emerged from seclusion today. I wonder if he has reached the peak of the mid-stage Nascent Soul realm?" Gu Xin said slowly, gazing at the back mountain.

"Senior brother has been in seclusion for over a hundred years. Even if he hasn't reached the peak of the mid-Nascent Soul stage, he shouldn't be too far off. The Xuan Yang Sword Sect has lost Cheng Yun's protection and is no match for my Sword Pavilion," Xiao Jin said calmly, fanning himself with his folding fan a few times.

"Of course! My Sword Pavilion hasn't fought with other sects for many years. This time, the Xuan Yang Sword Sect has gone too far. If we don't take this opportunity to establish our authority, others will really think that my Sword Pavilion is made of paper!" Gu Xin still looked angry.

In fact, Xiao Jin did not show much emotional fluctuation regarding the war with the Xuan Yang Sword Sect. After all, it wasn't his descendants who died in the Li Huo Cave; the most unfortunate one was Gu Xin.

During this trip to the Fire Cave, Gu Chen and Gu Shuo were killed, directly causing the demise of Gu Xin's two most valued juniors. This was indeed a bitter pill to swallow.

Just as the two elders were talking.

At this moment, in the plaza below, Wang Qingzhu's gaze was also fixed on the secluded cliff.

For the past nine months, Wang Qingzhu has been unable to eat or sleep properly, as she already knew the whole story.

The Sword Pavilion's high-profile challenge was certainly not just for show; it was aimed at completely annihilating the Xuan Yang Sword Sect.

Moreover, several months ago, Sword Pavilion had already sent out a message talisman to recall all the Core Formation elders who were out training.

Including her, there are a total of eight!

One of them even reached the late stage of Core Formation!

However, not all eight Core Formation cultivators will leave; two will remain to guard the mountain gate.

Even so, six people still participated in the war!

But who else could the Xuan Yang Sword Sect have besides Lu Fan?

Wang Qingzhu was unaware that Lu Fan had already become a Daoist couple with Ye Lingxi, so she believed that Lu Fan was the only one.

This means that Lu Fan will have to face all six Core Formation cultivators alone!

Wang Qingzhu naturally wouldn't actually do it, but being in the Sword Pavilion, she had no choice in what she did...

Over the past nine months, she had suggested to Gu Xin more than once that she not participate in the war, but Gu Xin refused each time.

She was caught in a dilemma, torn between two equally important things.

If she could watch Lu Fan be besieged and killed by a large number of Core Formation cultivators, it would be a hundred times more painful than killing her!

So Wang Qingzhu kept thinking about what way she could save Lu Fan's life.

But no matter how she thought about it, as a Core Formation cultivator, she was powerless to stop it.

But Wang Qingzhu never expected that the boy who once needed her protection was now a completely different person!

Numerous cultivation techniques, ancient treasures, and natal magic weapons give Lu Fan the confidence to face any Core Formation cultivator without fear!

hum!

Just as Wang Qingzhu was lost in thought, a powerful Nascent Soul pressure suddenly erupted from the secluded cliff in the distance!

Almost all the disciples present felt that terrifying pressure!

boom!

The next moment, a beam of light shot into the sky from the secluded cliff, its magnificent divine power making everyone dizzy and their eardrums ache!

After the pillar of light dissipated, a middle-aged man wearing a gray-white robe, with a full head of black hair, a serious expression, and no smile stepped out from the sky!

The mere wisp of pressure emanating from this mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator caused the heavens and earth to tremble!

The aura of someone in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm is worlds apart from that of someone in the early stage!

They are far superior to Gu Xin and Xiao Jin!

This shows that once you reach the Nascent Soul stage, the gap between different levels becomes even greater!

This is Gu Cangming, the Supreme Elder of the Sword Pavilion, who is in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm!

"Welcome back, Grand Elder, from your seclusion!"

At that moment, the numerous Sword Pavilion disciples below also bowed to the distant sky.

"Welcome back, Senior Brother, from your seclusion!"

Gu Xin and Xiao Jin immediately bowed to Gu Cangming high in the sky.

Gu Cangming is not only the Supreme Elder of the Sword Pavilion, but also the elder of Ancestor Gu Xin.

He is over a hundred years older than Gu Xin!

Thousands of years ago, the Sword Pavilion was actually just a slightly larger cultivation family.

However, the Gu family was blessed with great fortune, and several extraordinary talents were born in succession. Not only did their incense burn continuously, but Nascent Soul cultivators also emerged one after another!

Gradually, the Gu family established the Sword Pavilion. Especially in the last few hundred years, two Nascent Soul cultivators, Gu Cangming and Gu Xin, were born, which can be said to have reached the pinnacle of the sect!

It's a pity that if Gu Shuo and Gu Chen were properly nurtured, they might be able to succeed Gu Cangming and Gu Xin as the next generation of Nascent Soul cultivators.

But now he has been killed by Lu Fan, which is equivalent to cutting off the lineage of the Gu family.

"During my seclusion, two of the sect's Core Formation elders, who were the most promising to reach the Nascent Soul stage, were killed. I would like to ask, how did you two manage to be on duty?" As soon as Gu Cangming appeared, his gaze was fixed on the two Supreme Elders, Gu Xin and Xiao Jin, and his words were full of reproach.

When questioned, Xiao Jin frowned and remained silent.

Gu Xin's face darkened, and he said, "Senior brother, this whole thing started because of a scoundrel surnamed Lu. This guy was originally a disciple of the Dao Sect, but later left the Dao Sect and joined the Xuan Yang Sword Sect. Relying on the fact that the Xuan Yang Sword Sect has a Nascent Soul Ancestor backing him up, he has acted recklessly against me..."

Before Gu Xin could finish speaking, Gu Cangming immediately raised his hand to interrupt him, saying, "Gu Chen and Gu Shuo are dead, severing the lineage of my sect. I have no intention of distinguishing right from wrong. As the number one sect in the Great Yan Dynasty, my Sword Pavilion has never fought with anyone for hundreds of years."

"But this time, the Xuan Yang Sword Sect has overstepped its bounds too far. If we don't avenge this, how will the myriad sects view my Sword Pavilion!"

As soon as Gu Cangming uttered these words, the disciples below became excited and roared, "Destroy the Xuan Yang Sword Sect! Uphold the might of our Sword Pavilion!"

"What you say is absolutely right, senior brother. Only by destroying the Xuan Yang Sword Sect can we vent our anger," Gu Xin said slowly.

At this moment, Xiao Jin, who had been silent until now, finally spoke up: "Senior brother, destroying the Xuan Yang Sword Sect is no problem, but I am worried because this trip is, after all, a journey to the Feng Kingdom, which has six sects."

"Will these sects take advantage of our vulnerability and attack us?"

Upon hearing Xiao Jin's words, Gu Xin frowned deeply, for this was indeed a problem that could not be ignored.

"It's alright. There's still a month until the decisive battle with the Xuan Yang Sword Sect. In the meantime, I'll trouble Junior Brother Xiao to visit the other five sects in the Feng Kingdom and inform them that destroying the Xuan Yang Sword Sect has nothing to do with them. For any sect that doesn't get involved, my Sword Pavilion will immediately give them two Longevity Fruits."

"But if any sect wants to interfere, my Sword Pavilion will oblige! But if it really comes to that, I, Gu Cangming, will fight them to the death!"

Gu Cangming said in a deep voice.
