Daoist Kurong used his Dao power to carve an abstruse formation on the ground within a radius of several thousand feet. The runes could condense the world's essence and form a terrifying aura that could distort the void when Daoist Kurong poured his Dao power into them.
'Could it be …' Gu Fei vaguely thought of a possibility, but this idea was too outrageous. The Taixuan Sect was definitely thousands of miles away from this endless forest.
This place was still within the Northern Wei Empire's territory. According to Gu Fei's speculation, this endless forest should be between the north and the Central Plains.
Just as Daoist Kurong was about to step into the formation, he suddenly stopped and looked at the forest on the right.
"Who's there? Show yourself! " As Daoist Kurong spoke, he had already pressed his right hand forward in the air. A large hand instantly condensed in front of his palm. It was as big as a small mountain and emitted a terrifying energy fluctuation. It pressed straight toward the forest on the right.
"Rumble …"
The mountain-sized palm shook heaven and earth. An endless power surged in front of the hand, causing the forest to collapse and the ground to tremble.
Following that, a cry of surprise was heard from the forest. Then, a green figure rushed out of the forest. Someone was really spying on them.
Gu Fei could not help but feel shocked. Even though his cultivation base had broken through to the Void Controlling Realm, he was still weak. He could not sense that someone was lurking nearby.
The figure had a slender figure and seemed to be a woman. She was shrouded by a dark green demonic cloud. She looked up into the sky and flew toward the north.
"A demon?" Daoist Kurong seemed a little surprised. He did not attack again and let the person leave. The person rode on a demonic cloud and disappeared into the distance after a few flashes.
Gu Fei did not see the person's appearance clearly, but he could vaguely guess who it was. Apart from the people from the Three Great Dao Sects, Yan Wushuang was also following him.
"It seems to be his daughter!" Daoist Kurong murmured as he looked in the direction where the demonic aura disappeared. He seemed to have figured out the person's origin.
Daoist Kurong no longer hesitated. He led Gu Fei into the formation and used his Dao power to completely guide the formation's power.
Daoist Kurong and Gu Fei stood at the center of the formation, where the runes on the ground within several thousand feet of them emitted a dazzling spiritual light.
A vast energy was condensing. Gu Fei could see the space around him distorting. He could no longer see the scenery outside. At this time, he already knew that this was a teleportation array.
A peerless Demigod had all sorts of abilities that were hard to fathom. He was actually able to set up a Teleportation Formation at the last minute. This really surprised Gu Fei.
Swoosh! A burst of intense light burst out. The light was as bright as the sun, piercing Gu Fei's eyes and causing him to close them.
Following that, Gu Fei felt the world spin around him, as if the world had been reversed in that instant. He felt as if he had nowhere to exert his strength, as if he was floating in the air, unable to touch anything.
Gu Fei also felt dizzy. It was as if a huge rock was pressing on his chest, and his lungs felt like it was difficult to breathe. It was very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, this situation did not last for long. After about half an hour, Gu Fei felt his body tremble, and his feet seemed to have landed on the ground.
'It feels so good to have my feet on the ground!' Gu Fei thought to himself. He finally opened his eyes. The strong light outside made his eyes uncomfortable, but he quickly adapted to it.
Nevertheless, he quickly got used to it. He looked around and saw that he and Daoist Kurong were standing on an altar with ancient runes carved on the ground.
Gu Fei saw that the mysterious runes, which were emitting bright spiritual light, were quickly dimming. Soon, they became dim.
'Where … Where is this?' Gu Fei thought to himself. 'Have we already returned to the Taixuan Sect?' It was not like he had never been transported thousands of miles by a teleportation array before.
Back in the Southern Wilderness, Gu Fei and a group of people from the Taixuan Sect had been transported to an important place in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. They had experienced something like this.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! …
Just as Gu Fei was feeling bewildered, rays of light suddenly appeared in the distant sky. Each ray of light emitted a heavy fluctuation of magical power.
'18 rays of light … 18 peerless masters!' Gu Fei was secretly shocked. The number of peerless masters who had suddenly appeared was even greater than the masters from the Three Great Daoist Sects who had been tracking him!
The ancient altar was built in a valley. The valley was not large, but it was filled with flowers and lush vegetation. The scenery was not bad.
"They're here!" Daoist Kurong seemed to have known that something like this would happen. He was not surprised at all, and he still stood on the altar calmly.
'Who … Who are they?' Gu Fei thought to himself. 18 peerless masters was an extremely powerful force. In the world of cultivation, they would definitely be a superpower.
The 18 rays of light flew from all directions like 18 divine rainbows. Even during the day, when the sun shone on the world, they were still dazzling.
Soon, the 18 rays of light flew over the valley one after another and landed directly in front of the altar. These 18 peerless masters did not seem to dare to land directly on the altar.
When the person in the lead appeared from the rays of light, Gu Fei already knew who he was. The person in the lead was a Daoist with a sage-like demeanor.
Gu Fei was very familiar with this Daoist. This Daoist was the leader of the Taixuan Sect, Daoist Xuantian.
Behind Daoist Xuantian stood 17 men and women. Among these 17 people, there was a white-haired old man, a middle-aged Daoist with a dignified appearance, and a young woman and a young man.
Gu Fei realized that among these 17 people, there were heads of the other seven branches of the Nine Taixuan Pulses. Apart from the heads of each branch, he did not know the others. He had never even seen them before.
"Greetings, Patriarch Kurong!" Daoist Xuantian led a group of Taixuan Sect cultivators and bowed respectfully to Daoist Kurong, who was standing on the altar.
Daoist Kurong was a peerless demigod. He had already broken through the Hidden Latch of Life and Death and was on the road to immortality. No one knew how long he had lived. In the Taixuan Sect, there was probably no one who had a higher seniority than him.
With a peerless demigod in charge, it was no wonder that the Taixuan Sect had been able to survive in the world of cultivation. Although the Taixuan Sect had experienced several crises where they were almost destroyed, they were still safe.
"Alright!" Daoist Kurong nodded, then walked out of the formation eye in the center of the altar and walked straight down the altar.
Gu Fei hurriedly followed Daoist Kurong down the altar. There was a solemn atmosphere in the quiet valley.
Daoist Xuantian and the others did not even dare to breathe loudly in front of Daoist Kurong. They were extremely respectful.
"I've brought him back, but I want to accept him as an unofficial disciple!" Daoist Kurong said as he arrived in front of everyone.
Daoist Xuantian and the others could not help but be stunned. They never thought that Daoist Kurong would want to accept Gu Fei as an unofficial disciple, which surprised them.
"Patriarch, this …" Daoist Xuantian wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. The expressions of the others also became a little strange.
If Daoist Xuantian accepted Gu Fei as an unofficial disciple, wouldn't Daoist Xuantian also become Gu Fei's junior?
"Huh? Do you have any objections? " Daoist Kurong uttered coldly and released a powerful and oppressive aura. The aura pressured Daoist Xuantian and the other peerless powerhouses to the point that they felt suffocated.
Daoist Kurong was like an unreachable ancient sacred mountain. The powerful aura that he released made everyone's hearts palpitate.
"Patriarch Kurong wants to accept me as an unofficial disciple?" Gu Fei was also dumbfounded by Daoist Kurong's words, and his mind went blank at once.
"I dare not. I'll listen to your orders, Patriarch!" Daoist Xuantian said fearfully. The First Seats and the elders behind him quickly nodded in agreement.
"Gu Fei, are you willing to be my unofficial disciple?" Daoist Kurong asked Gu Fei with a barely noticeable flash of light in his muddy eyes.
'What? Be his disciple? If I cultivate his cultivation technique, won't I become like him too? 'Although Gu Fei was very unwilling, he could not refuse at the moment.
It might not be a bad thing for him to have Daoist Kurong as his backer. At the very least, nobody in the sect would dare to harm him.
With a peerless demigod-level figure as his Master, anyone who wanted to harm Gu Fei would have scruples. After all, nobody was willing to offend a demigod.
"I'm willing!" Gu Fei agreed without thinking too much about it.
"Haha! Great, great, great! " Daoist Kurong seemed to be very happy. He then added, "I'm not a martial artist, but I've collected many martial artists' weapons over the past hundreds and thousands of years. I'll give this Heavenly Fault Sword to you!"
Following that, Daoist Kurong took out an ancient sword from the storage bag on his waist.
Gu Fei reached out to receive the ancient sword respectfully, but he was wondering why Daoist Kurong wanted to accept him as an unofficial disciple.
No matter how he looked at it, it seemed like Daoist Kurong had planned this a long time ago. 'Is there something fishy about this?'
Gu Fei could not understand why Daoist Kurong would do this. Although he had his suspicions, he did not show it on the surface.
"Congratulations, Patriarch!" Daoist Xuantian and the others hurriedly congratulated him with smiles on their faces. It seemed like they were happy that Daoist Kurong had accepted an excellent disciple. However, among the 18 peerless powerhouses from the Taixuan Sect, including Daoist Xuantian, not many of them were truly happy about this matter.
