White Tiger Envoy
Elder Lin left the main hall and headed directly to the number one pavilion. Gu Xuan had won first place in the Heavenly Court, and Zhao Mayi, Lin He, and the others had all broken through to the Honorable Realm. Hence, Gu Xuan naturally entered the number one pavilion.
The Violet Wind Martial Sect had considered for three days before convening the meeting. Thus, it was already the fourth day after the Heavenly Court Tournament had ended.
Elder Lin originally thought that after telling Patriarch Purple Wind's decision to Gu Xuan, the latter would be furious or his face would turn gloomy. However, he didn't expect that not only was Gu Xuan not angry at all, but he also felt that Gu Xuan was very happy.
This made him wonder what had happened in the past few days. Why were strange things happening one after another? When he left the Heavenly Court, the strange smile on Gu Xuan's face still lingered in his mind.
"I never thought that the Purple Wind Martial Sect would actually be willing to give me the Evil Spirit True Fire." Returning to his room, Gu Xuan did not hide his feelings and grinned.
To Gu Xuan, these two requests of the Violet Wind Martial Sect were even more exciting than a million Treasure Points.
If the Purple Wind Martial Sect agreed without hesitation, it was very likely that they thought it was impossible for him and agreed without thinking.
But now that the conditions were so harsh, the Purple Wind Martial Sect was clearly prepared to give the Evil Spirit True Fire to him.
Although Gu Xuan could refine the Evil Spirit True Fire, the Purple Wind Martial Sect might agree to give him a chance. However, when he was about to succeed in refining it, the Ying Tianzong might not let him take away such a rare treasure. There would be many troubles involved.
However, the Purple Wind Martial Sect did not directly refuse, nor did he casually agree. Instead, he set out incomparably harsh conditions. This also meant that as long as Gu Xuan could accomplish these and obtain his approval, the Evil Spirit True Fire could be collected as he pleased.
"Breaking through to the Honorable Rank within half a year is a piece of cake for me. All that's left is to kill a hundred Level 3 Flame Beasts!"
Light flashed through Gu Xuan's eyes. The Supreme Flame was too tempting for him. Although his current cultivation speed was shocking, it was only relative to ordinary people.
It took Gu Xingyun four years to reach the peak of the Emperor Tier. With Gu Xuan's current speed, it would take him at least ten years to reach the peak of the Emperor Tier!
With the Heavenly Fire as the Origin, it might have infinite potential, but the speed of cultivation was extremely slow. It was very likely that it would be discovered by Gu Xingyun before it could step into the Emperor Level. What was left was only death.
The only way for him to maintain his rapid growth after stepping into the Monarch Realm was the Supreme Flame!
…
There was no such thing as an impenetrable wall in the world. The fact that Gu Xuan had been rejected even though he had offered such a low condition was quickly leaked out and spread like wildfire in the Heavenly Court.
A sixteen-year-old number one in the Heavenly Court, an eight-star Profound Martial Artist, and a true Honorable Martial Artist. No matter which aspect of him, he was dazzling. Originally, when he proposed such a low condition, many people's jaws dropped. Now that this condition was actually rejected by the academy, it caused an uproar.
Generally, those who were rejected either demanded an exorbitant price or were not valued by the academy.
Gu Xuan's request was only equivalent to the value of thirty to forty thousand treasure points. Even this was rejected and an almost impossible condition was added. How much did the academy think highly of Gu Xuan?
Gradually, the direction of the rumor changed. People began to speculate on how Gu Xuan could be so heaven-defying. Some people said that Gu Xuan had borrowed external forces, while others thought that Gu Xuan's potential had erupted. He was extremely ferocious at that time, but he might not have much success in the future. The academy wanted him to break through to the Monarch Realm in half a year, which was a test for Gu Xuan.
As for those who doubted the authenticity of this news, when Gu Xuan went to the Thousand Treasure Palace to receive the Demon Slaying Plate, they no longer doubted it.
The Demon Slaying Plate was considered a pseudo spiritual treasure. The so-called pseudo spiritual treasure had some special abilities, but it did not have the power of a real spiritual treasure.
The special function of the Demon Slaying Plate was to record the number of demonic beasts killed. After dripping blood on it, as long as the demonic beasts were killed with real strength, it would be recorded. It was a treasure used by large sects to train their disciples.
When Gu Xuan received the Demon Slaying Plate, it obviously confirmed the rumor that his request had been rejected.
This made many people feel that it was a pity, but more of them felt incomparably happy. The jealousy in their hearts towards Gu Xuan had lessened by a lot.
These people simply did not know that because of Gu Xuan's small request, the Purple Wind Martial Sect had pondered for three days. Moreover, they had gathered all the experts above the King Realm in the Yingtian Academy.
The so-called condition was the condition to give the Evil True Fire to Gu Xuan, and it was not an opportunity to try.
From the conversation with the Evil True Fire, the Purple Wind Martial Sect already knew that as long as Gu Xuan broke through to the Monarch Realm and obtained the opportunity to refine it, the Evil True Fire would definitely be incomparably cooperative.
For the Evil True Fire, the Purple Wind Martial Sect was willing to come to the Great Desolate Empire. Moreover, he had not refined the Earth Fire until now. However, this benefit had landed on Gu Xuan's head in the end. The depressed feeling in his heart was naturally indescribable.
After receiving the Demon Slaying Plate, Gu Xuan first went to the Alchemy Pavilion and took the remaining batch of Fourth Tier Elixirs. He also helped Zong Qi to comprehend the Alchemy Dao and gave him some pointers on the refining method of the Flame Melting Pill. Only then did he walk out of the Yingtian Academy.
"Phew!"
Gu Xuan let out a long breath. Looking at the half of the mountain behind him, he sighed in his heart. After cultivating in the Yingtian Academy for half a year, he had already gotten used to it. In the future, he would also break away from this comfortable cultivation environment and enter the Flame Beast Mountain Range to fight for his life.
"When I come back, I should be in the Monarch Realm, right?"
Gu Xuan had not walked far when he suddenly stopped in his tracks. In front of him, there was already a person waiting for him. When he saw Gu Xuan appear, that person also walked over.
This person was dressed in a white robe and his face was fair. He did not conceal his Five Star Monarch Realm aura at all. He was looking at Gu Xuan with a cold smile on his face.
"You are here to look for me?" Gu Xuan looked at that person and raised his eyebrows.
"That's right." The white-robed person nodded his head. "Let me introduce myself. I am Senior Zhou's follower, ranked second, the White Tiger Messenger. Senior Zhou asked me to come and chat with you. I wonder if you are interested."
"I'm sorry, I'm not interested." Gu Xuan glanced at the White Tiger Messenger and said with a faint smile, "I don't like people who feel good about themselves, and I don't like this kind of lackey."
The White Tiger Messenger's face darkened. He said coldly, "Then you are going to refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit? I am talking to you on behalf of Senior Zhou. Are you not going to give face to Senior Zhou? Do you believe that Senior Martial Brother Zhou can take your life with just a word? "
