Treasure Gathering Immortal Furnace

However, as the saying goes, nothing ventured, nothing gained. Even though Lu Fan knew that the Blood Spirit Sect was fraught with danger, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and go.

Otherwise, without obtaining this last material, achieving the Core Formation stage would remain a pipe dream.

After careful consideration, Lu Fan put away his Wind Feather Wings and flew to the sky above the sect's protective formation. He immediately sensed the cultivators hiding in the shadows and then cupped his hands and said, "I am Lu Fan. I have heard that the Blood Spirit Sect is recruiting many disciples, so I have come to pay my respects."

As Lu Fan's loud voice fell, three figures instantly appeared from all around: a Foundation Establishment cultivator and two Qi Refining Level 10 cultivators.

The reason Lu Fan stopped using the name Li Niu is because Li Niu offended the Sword Pavilion, which has caused quite a stir in the past two years. It is estimated that the Blood Spirit Sect must have found out about it as well.

Therefore, I can only use my real name.

"Hehe, you righteous cultivators are really persistent. You kill one, and another one comes. It's never-ending," the Foundation Establishment evil cultivator chuckled, looking at Lu Fan with a playful expression.

"Fellow Daoist, I am a rogue cultivator of the first rank, neither of the righteous nor the evil paths. I have come here with sincere intentions to pay my respects," Lu Fan said slowly, cupping his hands in greeting.

The Foundation Establishment heretical cultivator sized up Lu Fan. After realizing that the other party was at the peak of the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, he did not act rashly and said, "Since you are a rogue cultivator, why don't you go to a righteous sect to pay respects, but instead come to my Blood Spirit Sect to pay respects? I think you have another purpose, right?"

Looking at the other party's unfriendly eyes, Lu Fan felt a chill run down his spine, even though his cultivation level was not as high as the other party's. He wondered how many Foundation Establishment evil cultivators were hiding in the shadows.

Although he had just been boasting and arrogant, saying "Nothing ventured, nothing gained," Lu Fan was still a little apprehensive when it came to this crucial moment.

"If your sect does not accept disciples, I will leave immediately," Lu Fan's intuition told him that joining the Blood Spirit Sect was probably not so simple, and he had to find another way.

However, before Lu Fan could prepare to escape, a chilling voice that struck straight to the soul suddenly rang out!

"Since you've come, why rush to leave? Please come inside and have a seat."

Upon hearing this voice, Lu Fan felt a chill run down his spine. It was clearly a telepathic message from a mid-stage Core Formation cultivator, and their divine sense had already locked onto him.

"Fellow Daoist, the sect leader invites you. Please come inside," the Foundation Establishment heretical cultivator said with ill intent.

At this point, running away was clearly impossible, so Lu Fan had no choice but to bite the bullet and go inside.

He could only hope that this Core Formation cultivator from the Blood Spirit Sect would take him in, considering his own considerable cultivation level.

Led by the Foundation Establishment evil cultivator, Lu Fan walked towards the Blood Spirit Sect's main hall.

Along the way, the atmosphere of the entire sect was extremely cold and gloomy. The surrounding buildings were dark and sinister, and the bright red blood locust trees, when blown by the wind, seemed like evil ghosts baring their fangs and claws, ready to take lives at any moment!

And from the shadows, many eyes were fixed on him as if he were a piece of fatty meat.

This feeling is terrible!

Lu Fan also focused his attention and, led by the Foundation Establishment evil cultivator, passed through several small paths and finally saw the central hall hidden deep in the valley.

"Fellow Daoist, please," the Foundation Establishment heretical cultivator slowly extended his hand, gesturing for him to enter.

Lu Fan swallowed hard, his throat dry, and stepped into the main hall.

Upon entering the main hall, the first thing you see are two Core Formation cultivators!

An old man with a body like a withered tree trunk, deep-set eyes, and a nose like an eagle's, was the one emitting the aura of a mid-stage Core Formation cultivator.

The other person sitting next to the old man with the eagle nose was a woman.

The woman was dressed in red, her fiery red lips were striking and breathtaking, her eyes were full of charm and allure, and her seductive manner was natural. Even a glance from the corner of her eye was enough to arouse the desire in the hearts of cultivators.

"My name is Lu Fan. I greet you two seniors!" Lu Fan hurriedly bowed and greeted them, not daring to be presumptuous in the slightest.

"Hehe~ These days, all the cultivators who come to pay their respects are ugly and deformed. It's rare to see such a handsome and strong man. He makes my heart flutter," the red-clad female cultivator licked her red lips, her eyes fixed on Lu Fan.

Stared at like that, Lu Fan broke out in a cold sweat and didn't dare to look up.

"Boy, did you see the corpses on the archway? Those are all self-proclaimed Foundation Establishment cultivators who claim to be righteous, using the pretense of joining my Blood Spirit Sect to covet my Blood Spirit Sect's Dew of Creation."

"Judging by your upright demeanor, you must be a spy sent by some sect, right? Do you think my Blood Spirit Sect is stupid?"

As soon as the old man with the eagle nose in the first seat finished speaking, his aura as a mid-stage Core Formation cultivator suddenly erupted!

hum!

The next moment, Lu Fan felt his knees buckle and he almost knelt down on the spot. Fortunately, he had been tempered by the pressure of the Ancient Heart Ancestor back then, and he was still able to barely hold on.

"Senior! I truly have a sincere desire to pay my respects and have no improper thoughts whatsoever!" Lu Fan hurriedly explained.

At this moment, he had already cursed Luo Yan hundreds of times in his heart. What did this guy say? The Blood Spirit Sect has extremely low thresholds for accepting disciples, so it's bound to work.

They even said they introduced many cultivators to the mountain, and they've never heard of any failures!

There were no failures, but they were all hung on the archway and left forever in the Blood Spirit Sect! Luo Yan is clearly trying to kill him!

The reason for this was that Lu Fan and Luo Yan completed the transaction very quickly and without any problems, which led him to mistakenly believe that Luo Yan would not lie to him.

Now it seems this guy has no idea how ruthless the Blood Spirit Sect is!

Now, all Lu Fan can think about is how to escape!

One is in the mid-stage of Core Formation, and the other is in the early stage of Core Formation. If they really fight, Zi Yuan can at most hold off the early-stage Core Formation cultivator, while that eagle-nosed old man can kill him instantly!

If one were to use the Wind Feather Wings to forcefully escape with true essence, it would probably only delay the time of death at most, and would not be able to escape the pursuit of the Core Formation stage cultivator!

"Can you be gentle? Don't scare him. Just hand this cultivator over to me. After I've trained him, I'll make him feel like he's dying of pleasure and he'll honestly tell me his purpose," the woman in red said, and then walked away with graceful steps.

Then, the woman in red walked up to Lu Fan with a captivating fragrance, extended her slender fingers, and lifted Lu Fan's chin, her alluring eyes filled with satisfaction.

Lu Fan felt his blood surge just from smelling the fragrance emanating from her; this woman in red must have cultivated some kind of cultivation technique! She was naturally alluring.

"Hmph, you take on one of them, aren't you afraid of finishing them off?" the old man with the hawk-nosed snorted, seemingly quite displeased.

"That's still better than you, you old hag," the woman in red said, rolling her eyes.

Lu Fan was covered in cold sweat. He couldn't delay any longer! He had to find a way to escape!

With these thoughts in mind, Lu Fan moved his divine sense, and the Tungsten Heart Sword instantly appeared in his hand. He swept it forward sharply, but the woman in red seemed to have been prepared for Lu Fan's attack and easily dodged to the side.

"Oh, not much cultivation, but quite a temper," the woman in red smiled faintly, completely disregarding Lu Fan.

"Seniors, I sincerely wish to pay my respects to this mountain, but you want my life. It seems I might as well not pay my respects!" As soon as Lu Fan finished speaking, he immediately summoned his Wind Feather Wings, intending to escape.

However, before Lu Fan could unleash his Wind Feather Wings, the eagle-nosed elder sitting at the head of the table snorted, "Hmph! Overestimating yourself!"

boom!

The next moment, a burst of black energy erupted from the old man's body, as if countless vengeful ghosts had materialized, and instantly enveloped Lu Fan in the black energy!

"Oh no!" Lu Fan was startled, sensing something was wrong.
