Hundred Chi Gate, Hundred Feet Peak, the summit!
Sitting cross-legged on a green rock, Yu Haoran's eyes were closed and his breath was long. He seemed to be in a state of meditation.
However, the rich Spiritual Qi around him was still, indicating that he was not cultivating.
After sitting cross-legged for nearly half an hour, Yu Haoran's consciousness suddenly asked, "Thaling, how is it?"
"The situation is not optimistic!" After a few more minutes, Thaling in the sea of consciousness replied.
However, the tone of the reply was very serious.
"What's wrong?" Yu Haoran asked nervously.
"The power of the poison is too strong, causing the weapon spirit of the Sky-Measuring Ruler to have to cut off all its senses to prevent the poison from entering the Spirit."
"Yu Haoran, the secret method of cutting off all senses is called the Secret Method of Returning Breath. Unless it can no longer feel the threat of the poison, it will wake up on its own. Otherwise, even if I use all the power of the Spirit, I'm afraid it will be difficult to wake it up."
After explaining to this point, Thaling withdrew all the Divine Thoughts that had entered the Sky-Measuring Ruler and asked in a slightly urgent tone.
"Therefore, you can't continue to be entangled by the trifles of the sect. You must find a way to leave Hundred Feet Peak immediately and improve your cultivation through experience as soon as possible. Strive to break through the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm and condense the Spirit in the shortest time possible."
"Because through my observation just now, I found that the poison in the weapon spirit of the Sky-Measuring Ruler is a kind of poison that can absorb the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth to grow on its own."
Hearing the information that Thaling inadvertently revealed, Yu Haoran vaguely remembered that in his previous life, he had heard of a kind of poison. Its power was average at the beginning, but as it lurked for a long time, its power grew stronger. In the end, it could directly devour the soul and Spirit of the poisoned person, thus becoming a new species that contained a huge poison.
However, the memory of that kind of poison was only occasionally heard of at some point in time. The impression was not very deep, so it was difficult for him to recall it in a short time.
"Thaling, even if you didn't mention it, I was planning to leave the sect in the next one or two days."
Shaking his head, Yu Haoran temporarily suppressed the memories of the poison and responded to Thaling's suggestion.
"After all, I still have to help Master find the plant insects so that I can remove the Seven Worms and Seven Flowers Powder in his body!"
"That's great!"
He would be leaving the sect in a day or two. Yu Haoran's reply told Thaling that he didn't need to say anything more.
After that, Yu Haoran took out two level-five, first-grade spirit stones from his storage ring and held them tightly in his hand. Then, with the help of the rich spiritual energy at the top of the mountain, he planned to continue his cultivation breakthrough.
Due to the tempering in the depths of the mountain range, his successive breakthroughs to the Martial Master realm had already been completely consolidated. The experience of the faction's life and death battle had also allowed him to accumulate some comprehension of the realm.
He would have to leave the sect in a day or two. If he wanted to focus on breaking through in the sect, he probably wouldn't have such a good opportunity.
Therefore, Yu Haoran planned to use up the accumulation of his realm in advance and increase his cultivation by a small realm.
The abundant spiritual energy from the level-five, first-grade spirit stones and the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth at the top of the Hundred Feet Peak allowed his cultivation to quickly increase. In less than half an hour, Yu Haoran already felt the bottleneck of the high stage of the fifth grade Martial Master.
Because it was only a small breakthrough in a small realm, with the help of the Yuan Li and abundant spiritual energy in his dantian, he broke through the bottleneck of the realm in just the first attempt and smoothly entered the high stage of the fifth grade Martial Master.
After feeling that the accumulation of his realm hadn't been completely used up, Yu Haoran planned to increase his cultivation to the peak of the fifth grade Martial Master in one go. Then, with the help of pills, he would break through to the sixth grade Martial Master.
However, at that moment, Fifth Senior Brother Huang Zonghua suddenly arrived at the top of the mountain.
"Fifth Senior Brother, why are you here?" Seeing Huang Zonghua suddenly arrive at the top of the Hundred Feet Peak, Yu Haoran asked in confusion.
A day ago, considering the current situation of the Hundred Chi Gate, as well as Chu Zhongyu's own situation, the twelve Founding Elders and the thirty-three Peak Masters discussed and decided that Chu Zhongyu would temporarily take over the position of the Gate Master of the Hundred Chi Gate.
However, they wouldn't hold an inauguration ceremony in the near future.
Firstly, it was because Chu Zhongyu's cultivation was too low.
If they held an inauguration ceremony now, it would make it seem as if the Hundred Chi Gate didn't have anyone capable, and it would also attract the ridicule of the other sects.
Secondly, because the Hundred Chi Gate had been fighting intensely for the past few decades, it had caused the sect to lose too much strength. They didn't want the new Gate Master to be too weak, which would attract the disloyalty of the affiliated sects and powers. They also didn't want to attract the ambitions of other sects of the same level to loot a burning house.
Now, with Chu Zhongyu taking over the position of Gate Master, it was the busiest time. All of the disciples of the Clear Cloud Faction, with the exception of Yu Haoran, even Gongsun Yuting, who had just started cultivating and was only a second grade Martial Disciple, was helping Chu Zhongyu take care of the sect's affairs.
Why would Huang Zonghua, who was Chu Zhongyu's right-hand man, come to visit him sometimes?
Looking at Yu Haoran, who was leisurely sitting cross-legged on the bluestone, Huang Zonghua thought about how busy he had been the entire day and complained unhappily.
"Ninth Junior Brother, what should I say about you?"
"You were the one who recommended Eldest Senior Brother to take the position of Gate Master. You were also the one who told Eldest Senior Brother to hold the power tightly."
"Now, in order to help Eldest Senior Brother smoothly take control of the sect in a short period of time, the ten of us are so busy that we're dizzy."
"Then, as the main force, what about you?"
"Alright, cut the crap. Just tell me, why are you looking for me?"
Ignoring Huang Zonghua's complaints, Yu Haoran, who was eager to continue breaking through, said with a slightly impatient tone.
In fact, it wasn't that he didn't want to help Eldest Senior Brother familiarize himself with and control the sect as soon as possible, but every time he appeared in front of the sect's higher-ups, those people would tremble in fear and didn't dare to speak at all.
This was why he was bored and wanted to ask Thaling to further investigate the situation of the Heaven Measuring Ruler's spirit so that he could understand the properties of the giant poison and prepare to detoxify it in advance.
"Ninth Junior Brother, trouble has come knocking!"
Seeing a flash of impatience on Yu Haoran's face just now, Huang Zonghua knew that his Ninth Junior Brother had something urgent to deal with and didn't want to listen to his complaints, so he directly explained the reason for his visit.
"What trouble?" Yu Haoran asked.
"The He Clan, one of the affiliated forces of our Hundred Chi Gate, was suddenly exterminated five days ago. Only the twin sisters of the He Clan's Patriarch were spared because they went out for training."
"Now, the sisters have come to our Hundred Chi Gate, hoping that we can send masters to investigate the cause of the extermination of the He Clan and help them take revenge."
Huang Zonghua briefly introduced the trouble that he had encountered now.
However, when he mentioned the twin sisters of the He Clan, Huang Zonghua's expression was a little strange, but Yu Haoran, who was thinking about something, didn't notice it.
"Fifth Senior Brother, although the inauguration ceremony hasn't been held yet, according to the agreement reached by me, the 12 Elders, and the 33 Peak Masters, the First Senior Brother has all the rights that a Sect Leader should have."
"In that case, why don't you arrange masters from the Law Enforcement Peak or transfer masters from different factions to investigate?" Yu Haoran frowned and questioned.
"This …!" In the face of Yu Haoran's questioning, Huang Zonghua looked like he wanted to say something but stopped on second thought.
"Say it!" Yu Haoran's face darkened and he roared.
"After receiving the He Sisters' request for help, the First Senior Brother immediately went to the Peak Master of the Law Enforcement Peak and asked him to send masters to investigate."
"But the Peak Master said that all the masters of the Law Enforcement Peak were helping Junior Brother to investigate the disciples of the Hundred Chi Gate, so he couldn't spare anyone for the time being."
Huang Zonghua, who was startled by Yu Haoran's roar, hurriedly explained the predicament that Chu Zhongyu was in.
