Following the sound, they saw Gu Beiyue rushing over with Head Honored Elder in tow.
Han Yunxi and the rest were surprised. They never expected Gu Beiyue to move so quickly. Not only did he take care of the people at the foot of the mountain, but he even saved Head Elder.
He went up and down the mountain to find him?
"Feiye, hurry! Hurry to Nirvana Gorge, the sword-sealing platform's about to crack! "Head Honored Elder was so anxious that he didn't even care about the pain in his organs.
He and Second Honored Elder had both been poisoned and locked up on the top floor of Hidden Sword Depository under Third Elder's personal watch. They could hear the commotion at the peak, but had no idea what was going on. It wasn't until Gu Beiyue captured Third Elder and rescued them that they realized Feiye and Yunxi had returned.
The head of Evil Sword School wasn't on Celestial Mountain, so Feiye's sword skills and Yunxi's poison skills were enough to deal with the traitors of the Evil Sword Sect and the Depositories and Courtyards. Thus, they immediately had Gu Beiyue take them to Nirvana Gorge.
Nirvana Gorge was Tianshan Kenzō's most forbidden area. Within it was a sword-sealing platform that locked up the ancient sword Ganjiang!
Tianshan Kenzō's ancestors had found the sword in the past, but were unable to subdue it. Thus, they built the platform and used up all of their strength to seal the sword within.
Evil Sword School seemed to be occupying Celestial Mountain this time, but they were actually aiming for Ganjiang.
The head of Evil Sword School had limited internal energy, so he couldn't subdue Ganjiang. But before he left, he destroyed the platform to threaten the three Honored Elders.
This was because once the Sword Sealing Platform was destroyed, Ganjiang's sword soul would slowly awaken within a year. The head of Evil Sword School was waiting for the awakening of Ganjiang's sword spirit to force the three Honored Elders to work together to subdue it.
The three Honored Elders were all at the maximum level of Nirvana Heart Arts and had unfathomable internal energy, but they still couldn't subdue Ganjiang. They did not inform the Evil Sword School Master of this fact. They were hoping that they could regain their freedom before the Ganjiang Sword Spirit awakened. Then, they could work together to seal the Ganjiang Sword Spirit in the Sword Sealing Platform.
But unexpectedly, when he and Second Venerable rushed to the Sword Sealing Platform, they discovered that the Ganjiang Sword Soul was awakening.
Logically speaking, if the Ganjiang Sword Spirit was about to awaken, there would be a sign. At the very least, they could sense it from the top of Mount Tianshan. But this time, there were no signs at all, making it hard to figure out.
They didn't have the time to think too much about it. Once the Ganjiang Sword Soul was fully awakened, it wouldn't be easy to suppress it. If he could not suppress it, Ganjiang would definitely fly away from Sky Mountain. Once Ganjiang left Tianshan, it would not be easy to find it again.
The Great Venerable didn't know if they could still seal the awakening Ganjiang Sword Soul with their current strength, but they had to try no matter what.
When Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi learned of this situation, although they had many doubts, they couldn't be bothered to ask.
"Gu, look after them!" After Long Fei Ye said this, he and Han Yunxi followed the Great Venerable back to Nirvana Valley.
Han Yunxi didn't stay idle along the way. She carefully examined the poison in the Great Venerable's body and concocted an antidote for him.
When Gu couldn't see their backs, he came back to his senses and realized that he was alone again.
How could he be happy that he couldn't participate in such a big show?
The entire Mount Tianshan was in chaos. Some disciples surrendered, some fled, and some fought. Granny You, who was imprisoned at the bottom of the mountain, had already killed her way to the top of Mount Tianshan. She just happened to be fighting with several experts of the Evil Sword School.
No matter how chaotic the situation was, no matter which side had the upper hand, no one dared to provoke Gu on the stage. Even the experts of the Evil Sword School didn't dare to think of saving the three clan elders.
In the midst of the chaos, Gu sat cross legged on the ground. His face was gloomy. His hands were fiddling with something. There seemed to be some pills in his palms. No one knew what he was doing.
The three clan elders of the Evil Sword School squatted in front of him. The three of them had already exchanged a few glances, planning on how to escape.
Although Gu had Mo Xie's sword spirit, but, he wasn't Long Fei Ye. It was impossible to escape right under Long Feiye's nose. But, to escape from Gu's eyes, if they cooperated well, there was still some hope. No matter what, they had to have someone return to Evil Sword Sect to take charge of the situation. If not, when Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi found them, Evil Sword Sect would be in danger.
Sect Master was far away. Distant water couldn't put out a nearby fire.
Helplessly, they had really underestimated Gu.
Gu was scary when he wasn't serious. But when he was serious, he was even scarier. Long Fei Ye didn't know how to poison, but Gu did. And he was an expert!
Just as the Great Clan Elder signalled to the Second and Third Clan Elder to take action, Gu's sleeves suddenly shot out a few thorny vines. Once again, they were bound.
Although the Great Clan Elder's hands were bound, he still held onto his sword. He said anxiously, "Gu, since when did you become Long Fei Ye's lackey. Why don't you …."
Before he could finish, Gu stuffed a poison pill into his mouth. The Great Clan Elder had no choice but to swallow it. He asked in shock, "What did you feed me?"
Gu ignored him. He gestured with his finger for the thorny vines to bring the Second and Third Clan Elder to him. The Second and Third Clan Elder were terrified. They immediately pulled out their swords to cut the thorny vines.
But what shocked them was that these thorny vines were different from the previous ones. They couldn't cut them at all.
Very quickly, their swords were snatched away by the thorny vines. Gu fiercely pinched their chins and fed them the poison. He then turned around and left.
He walked a few steps but turned back. At this time, the Great Clan Elder had already fainted from the poison. The Second and Third Clan Elder were terrified. They couldn't guess what Gu wanted to do next.
Who knew that Gu squatted down beside the Great Clan Elder. He pulled out a dagger from his calf and cut off the Great Clan Elder's tongue.
Although the unconscious Great Clan Elder didn't feel any pain, his tongue started to bleed. A blood red thorny vine grew out from the Great Clan Elder's mouth. It bared its fangs and brandished its claws, trapping the Second and Third Clan Elder.
Gu's face was gloomy. He slowly wiped the dagger clean before turning around to leave.
The Second and Third Clan Elder couldn't find the words to describe their fear. They were so glad that they didn't say anything. Otherwise, the Great Clan Elder's fate would be the end of their lives!
This Gu might not be as easy to provoke as Long Fei Ye!
Gu's face was gloomy. He shouted, "Who is Granny You? Come out now!"
Once he said that, the chaotic surroundings quietened down. Granny You was surrounded by a few experts from the Evil Sword School. She descended from the sky and shouted, "Seventh Young Master Gu, I'm here!"
"Bring me to Nirvana Valley. Hurry!" Gu was anxious.
Granny You was in a difficult position. If not for the poison and the restriction of her inner strength, she wouldn't have been trapped by a few Evil Sword Sect disciples. But when Gu Qishao glanced over, all of the experts tactfully stepped aside.
After Granny You successfully escaped, she immediately brought Gu to Nirvana Valley.
When the Evil Sword School disciples saw that the Great Clan Elder was dead and the Second and Third Clan Elders were trapped, they accepted the fact that the situation was hopeless. They didn't continue to fight and escaped.
Nirvana Valley was deep in the valley behind the Ninth Temple. Before Granny You and Gu arrived, they could already feel the strong sword qi ahead.
If it was someone with weaker inner strength, they would have been injured by the sword qi before even seeing the treasured sword Ganjiang.
The two of them hurried on, but who knew that Gu would suddenly stop. It was as if his acupoints had been sealed and he was frozen stiff.
"Seventh Young Master Gu, what's wrong?" Granny You was shocked.
Gu didn't answer. It was as if he had gone berserk, his eyes suddenly turning scarlet.
Granny You was an experienced and knowledgeable person. She had no idea why Gu would react like that.
She nudged Gu and asked, "Seventh Young Master Gu, what's wrong with you?"
After asking a few more times, Gu didn't answer her. He just stared blankly ahead. Seeing that there was no one around, Granny You didn't dare delay and hurriedly flew towards the Sword Sealing Platform.
When Granny You arrived, she saw Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi fighting with the two Supremacies, using their Nirvana powers to suppress the Ganjiang sword spirit.
Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi were both at the maximum level of Nirvana powers. The two Supremacies were also at the maximum level. In addition to Gu Beiyue, who was assisting them, there were five of them. However, even with the five of them working together, they were still at a disadvantage against the Ganjiang sword spirit.
It looked as if they were about to be overwhelmed by the Ganjiang sword spirit. Granny You was so anxious that she forgot about Gu and hurriedly joined in. Although her inner strength was limited, she was still a force to be reckoned with!
Unfortunately, Granny You's participation was just a drop in the bucket.
As the Ganjiang sword spirit gradually awoke, its power grew stronger and stronger. Long Fei Ye withdrew his Nirvana powers and used the powerful Lustbite power instead.
Only then did the Ganjiang sword spirit weaken slightly. But soon enough, it grew stronger and stronger until it was obvious that it was suppressing the two Supremacies.
"Feiye, we can't hold on any longer!" Although the head elder didn't want to admit it, it was the truth.
"Let's give up. If we keep going, we'll only waste our inner strength," Gu Beiyue said.
Everyone had already used all their strength and tried their best.
But Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi both had taut faces as if unwilling to give up.
In their lives, there was only 'don't want', not 'give up'.
"Princess, even if Ganjiang leaves Kenzō, no one in the world can subdue it. Why waste everyone's inner strength? There are still many things waiting for us!" Gu Beiyue coaxed again.
Gu was right. Even if Ganjiang left the sword-sealing platform and disappeared, it wouldn't affect them much in the short term.
If they couldn't subdue Ganjiang, who else could? It was precisely because Bai Yanqing didn't have the skills that he was forcing the three Honored Elders.
Han Yunxi was about to give up when a thought flashed through her mind.
After some hesitation, she said, "Give me one more chance, I'll try!"
Everyone agreed, but they didn't know what she was going to do.
The two Honored Elders and Granny You were still unaware of the matter of Phoenix energy. Long Fei Ye and Gu Beiyue knew, but they never guessed it was Phoenix energy. Han Yunxi could only control a limited amount of Phoenix energy right now, so it wasn't as strong as a full level Nirvana Heart!
But Han Yunxi wanted to test her Phoenix energy.
Would there be a miracle?
