Treasure Gathering Immortal Furnace

The evil cultivator in the mid-stage of Core Formation mainly cultivates yin and evil techniques, which are extremely aggressive. Just being surrounded by this black energy made Lu Fan feel his soul tremble, as if it was about to devour his soul inch by inch!

This prompted Lu Fan to immediately summon the Eight Treasures Mirror for protection. Under the dazzling light of the Eight Treasures Mirror, he was able to slightly resist the invasion of the black energy. At the same time, his divine sense continuously scanned the black energy, searching for any weaknesses.

The woman in red standing to the side looked distressed and said, "Old ghost, don't hurt my heart! Be gentle!"

"Stop being so frivolous! This kid even has a top-grade magic weapon; his origins are not simple," the old ghost slowly stood up, seemingly realizing that Lu Fan's strength was extraordinary. However, he didn't recognize the origin of the Eight Treasures Mirror, which was a stroke of luck amidst misfortune. Otherwise, if he had mistaken Lu Fan for a spy from the Sword Pavilion, he would have been doomed.

As Lu Fan watched the black aura shrink tighter and tighter, his expression darkened. He immediately raised his Tungsten Heart Sword and activated the Sword Shadow Splitting Light Technique, slashing outwards in all directions.

Whoohoo!

As the sword light flashed, the black mist seemed to possess intelligence, immediately scattering to avoid the sword shadows before gathering again.

"My aura of the Netherworld Corpse is not something a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator like you can withstand. Tell me the truth, which sect do you belong to?" the old ghost ghost shouted.

"I am a first-level rogue cultivator, what sect do I belong to!" Lu Fan said.

"Hmph! Still being stubborn!" The old ghost slowly reached out and suddenly grabbed.

hum!

The black energy contracted again, reducing Lu Fan's living space, and the Eight Treasures Mirror trembled violently, clearly having reached its limit.

"There's no other way, it seems we have to fight to the death!" Lu Fan's face darkened, and he planned to use Zi Yuan to forcefully break through the black energy.

However, the price to pay for doing so is that the trump card will be exposed to two Core Formation evil cultivators, and Zi Yuan will most likely not be able to protect it.

But there's simply no time to worry about that right now.

however.

Just as Lu Fan was about to summon Zi Yuan with a thought, a figure suddenly appeared outside the door.

"Master! Show mercy! I know this person!"

As soon as the voice was spoken, a man with a sinister face and who looked to be in his forties strode over.

Through the gaps in the black mist, Lu Fan recognized the other party at a glance: Ku Rong!

"True Master Kurong!" Lu Fan cried out as if grasping at a straw.

The old ghost who had originally intended to kill Lu Fan suddenly stopped when it heard Ku Rong's voice.

As the large mass of black energy dissipated, Lu Fan felt a great sense of relief, having truly narrowly escaped death.

"Fellow Daoist Lu! No wonder your voice sounded so familiar, it really is you!" Ku Rong was overjoyed when he saw Lu Fan.

Just as Ku Rong was passing by, he heard Lu Fan's shout and rushed over in time. After all, cultivators all have the ability to remember things at a glance, and the same goes for their voices. Besides, it had only been seven years since they last met.

"Master Kurong, it's all thanks to you, otherwise I would have been strangled on the spot by you, senior," Lu Fan hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to express his gratitude.

The old ghost was also surprised and asked, "Kuru, how do you know him?"

"Master, do you still remember the demon-slaying conference seven years ago? This Fellow Daoist Lu was the outside help I brought back then," Ku Rong hurriedly replied.

"Then why haven't I seen him?" the old ghost asked in confusion.

"At that time, Fellow Daoist Lu arrived half a day late, so Master did not meet him. However, I joined forces with Fellow Daoist Lu to kill the Foundation Establishment deacon of the Dao Sect," Ku Rong said.

Upon hearing that Lu Fan had killed a righteous sect leader, the old ghost of the ghostly realm lowered his guard and laughed, "Hehe, so you've helped me before. Don't hold a grudge against me for attacking you just now."

"Senior, you are too kind. It was I who did not recognize you," Lu Fan said, bowing respectfully.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, back then you were taken hostage by that mysterious Core Formation senior. I left to seek outside help and intended to go back to find you, but I found that you had already disappeared. I thought you had been killed by that Core Formation senior. It is truly a blessing in disguise that you are still alive." Ku Rong remembered the events of that time very clearly.

"After that senior took me away from Tiandang Mountain, I served her for several years and managed to escape by chance. Now that I heard that the Blood Spirit Sect is recruiting disciples, I came here to try my luck," Lu Fan replied.

"It seems that after serving some Core Formation senior for so many years, Fellow Daoist Lu's cultivation has also deteriorated. He's still only in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage?" Ku Rong said.

Back then, Lu Fan pretended to be a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator while only being at the Qi Refining stage. Now that his cultivation has caught up, everything seems reasonable to Ku Rong, which naturally makes him believe it without a doubt.

"Sigh, let's not talk about it," Lu Fan sighed.

Only then did Lu Fan look at the Ghostly Old Ghost. He remembered that seven years ago, this Ghostly Old Ghost was only at the early stage of Core Formation. He fought a great battle with Elder Wan Yang of the Dao Sect and probably escaped death, breaking through to the middle stage of Core Formation.

Then, together with this woman in red, they founded the Blood Spirit Sect.

With Ku Rong's guarantee, the old ghost of the ghost naturally had no more doubts and said, "Fellow Daoist Lu, since you know Ku Rong, you are destined to be with my Blood Spirit Sect. So, join Ku Rong as a steward of the Blood Spirit Sect. As long as you serve the Blood Spirit Sect well, you will be rewarded handsomely."

Upon hearing this, Lu Fan was overjoyed and quickly cupped his hands in thanks: "Thank you for your kindness, Sect Master!"

The woman in red standing to the side looked resentful: "I finally got a handsome man who became my junior disciple, how am I supposed to continue my cultivation now?"

Upon hearing this, Ku Rong hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Elder Su, Fellow Daoist Lu is my close friend. Please be lenient!"

At this point, Ku Rong nudged Lu Fan with his elbow, and Lu Fan quickly bowed and clasped his hands, saying, "I hope Elder Su will take good care of this junior in the future."

The woman in red, exuding a touch of allure, walked up to Lu Fan. Her slender, jade-like fingers gently brushed across his cheek, instantly sending shivers down Lu Fan's spine.

Then the woman in red said coquettishly, "Why call me Elder Su? That's too formal. There's no distinction of rank here. Just call me Mei'er~"

As she spoke, Su Meier gave Lu Fan a flirtatious wink, which was full of allure.

This startled Lu Fan so much that he broke out in a cold sweat.

Seeing that things were not going well, Ku Rong quickly looked at the old ghost and said, "Master, it's nothing. I'll just take Junior Brother Lu to familiarize himself with the Blood Spirit Sect."

"Yes, go ahead," the old ghost raised his hand.

Ku Rong then hurriedly left with Lu Fan, but Su Meier's tender and charming eyes remained fixed on him.

This sent a chill down Lu Fan's spine.

Once outside, Ku Rong finally spoke up, "Junior Brother Lu, you should stay away from this Su Meier from now on. It seems this woman has her eye on you."

"If I join the Blood Spirit Sect, where can I hide?" Lu Fan's face immediately turned bitter. Although his life was no longer in danger, being targeted by Su Meier was still troublesome.

"That's true, but it's alright. Didn't I teach you the Entangling Clouds and Controlling Phoenix Technique years ago? If she really dares to drain your essence, you can drain her instead," Ku Rong smiled sinisterly.

Lu Fan's face darkened, and he said, "Wouldn't that be courting death?"

"Don't worry, this Entangling Cloud Phoenix Control Technique can be activated without anyone noticing. Her Thousand Charming Beauty Technique won't be able to detect it," Ku Rong said with a smile, seemingly quite confident in his Entangling Cloud Phoenix Control Technique.
