"I've confirmed that Gu Xuan is indeed flying in this direction.
It seems that Gu Xuan has no intention of competing for the Burning Sky Saint Ranking.
He only wants to stay as far away from the Saint Ranking as possible and then hide to ensure that the first place is not taken by others.
What an idiot.
However, Confucian Blade, you've been taken advantage of by such an idiot again and again. How can I forgive you? "
A man wearing a mask stood on top of a tree with his head held high.
Behind him, the Confucian Blade Saint's face flashed with a ferocious look.
"Don't worry, Senior Brother Zhuge. This time, I've set up an inescapable trap. Gu Xuan will definitely die here!"
A mocking smile appeared on Zhuge Wuwo's face hidden behind the mask.
"I hope so. Do you know the consequences if you fail again?
Even if you don't die at Gu Xuan's hands, you'll die at my hands. "
The Confucian Blade Saint nodded fiercely.
"This time, even if I have to risk my life, I'll drag Gu Xuan down with me!"
Zhuge Wuwo nodded and disappeared in front of the Confucian Blade Saint.
"That's great!"
Seeing Zhuge Wuwo disappear in front of him again, the Confucian Blade Saint's eyes flashed with fear.
Even though he had reached the intermediate Profound Sage Realm, he still couldn't figure out Zhuge Wuwo's strength.
Zhuge Wuwo's elusive movement alone made him feel despair.
The Confucian Blade Saint frowned. He felt as if a mountain was pressing down on his shoulders.
This time, only one of them could survive between him and Gu Xuan.
Or both of them could die together.
"Even if it's a draw, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive.
Zhuge Wuwo, you're forcing me like this. If I'm lucky enough to survive, I'll definitely make you die in pain and regret! "
The Confucian Blade Saint's eyes flashed with killing intent as he thought viciously.
A moment later, he also disappeared from the top of the tree.
Rustle, rustle, rustle.
A light breeze blew past, and the sound of leaves rustling could be heard one by one.
This was a forest.
It looked calm, but there were already undercurrents under the calm.
Three hundred miles away, Gu Xuan and Dongfang Xue were flying toward the forest. They had no intention of changing their direction.
If one wanted to leave the Burning Sky Saint Ranking, one naturally had to fly in the opposite direction of the Nine Finger Mountain.
"I have a feeling that things aren't that simple.
Otherwise, anyone who obtained a high ranking would be able to flee far away to avoid disaster.
Once the ten days are up, wouldn't he become a winner in life? "
Gu Xuan discussed this issue with Dongfang Xue again.
Dongfang Xue shook her head.
"I also feel that this matter isn't simple, but I don't know exactly what it is.
Given the means of the Heavenly Dao, since it had set the Ranking Battle's battlefield in the vast Ninth Realm, it was prepared to evade the experts and avoid the battle.
No matter what, in two days at the latest, after the first update of the Holy Rankings, the method left behind by the Heavenly Dao will be revealed. "
Gu Xuan rubbed his chin, nodding with a smile.
"That's right. There's no need to think too much about it now.
When the boat reaches the bridge, it will naturally straighten itself out. When the Heavenly Dao's method of evading the experts' battle appears, it will be the time for us to take action.
You're currently ranked 29th. That won't do. You have to at least rank 11th. "
"Eleventh? Why eleven? "
Dongfang Xue looked at Gu Xuan in surprise.
"I thought you wanted to keep your number one position."
Gu Xuan shook his head with a wry smile.
"Of course I want to keep my number one position.
Unfortunately, before I came here, a great senior reminded me that it would be best if I could obtain the [Tenth] rank.
If I'm [Tenth], then you're [Eleventh].
It's best if we don't get involved with the top nine positions. "
Dongfang Xue frowned.
"Since you believe in that great senior, then we'll do as you say.
However, the top nine experts can go to the Inheritance Palace to receive inheritances. Are you really not tempted? "
Gu Xuan smiled. "Of course I'm tempted. The Inheritance Palace of the Heavenly Dao contains the inheritances of many mighty figures in the history of the Burning Sky Continent.
Who wouldn't be tempted?
However, I believe in my intuition more.
My intuition tells me to believe in that great senior. "
Dongfang Xue smiled. Gu Xuan's reasoning was impeccable.
"So it's also that great senior's instructions to stay away from the Burning Sky Holy Rankings?"
Gu Xuan gave her a thumbs-up.
"You're truly a genius!
I've discovered that you have a talent for divining. "
Dongfang Xue rolled her eyes at Gu Xuan.
"Divining is too abstract. If I still had the bloodline of a True Dragon and had the opportunity, perhaps I could give it a try.
Now, even if I have the opportunity, without the support of a bloodline, I'd be courting death.
It's not that easy to pry into the secrets of the heavens.
Rather than talking about this nonsense, I'm more curious about how you're going to obtain the tenth rank.
You're currently number one!
It's easy to go up, but what should you do if you want to go down?
You can't possibly get someone to kill you, right? "
Gu Xuan frowned and pondered for a moment. "This is indeed a problem.
Therefore, I can only find a ranked expert to experiment with.
I'll see if I can admit defeat to lower my ranking. If I can't, then it'll be troublesome. "
Sometimes, being too outstanding was also troublesome.
He wanted to keep a low profile, but he couldn't.
Could it be that the Grand Competition of the Saint Rankings didn't even allow him to have such a noble quality as keeping a low profile?
Gu Xuan began to feel smug.
Before they knew it, the two had already flown a hundred and fifty kilometers.
At this moment, when they passed by a group of volcanoes, Gu Xuan suddenly extended his hand and stopped Dongfang Xue.
"Is there something in the largest volcano?"
Gu Xuan pointed at the mouth of a volcano.
In the mouth of the volcano, magma was boiling, releasing billowing hot air.
"What is it?"
Dongfang Xue was very curious. She stared at the magma in the mouth of the volcano, but she couldn't find anything.
"I don't know what it is. But it's definitely not something simple.
That thing hasn't been born yet, but it's already displaying extremely strong fire elemental power.
However, even though the fire elemental power is extremely strong, it seems to be covered by another fire elemental power.
This situation was very special. When fire met fire, the fire elemental power should be strengthened.
When the two fire elemental powers met, they neutralized each other's aura.
If I didn't have the Sovereign Flame, I wouldn't have noticed the abnormality.
It's worth taking a look. Let's go! "
Gu Xuan moved and pulled Dongfang Xue toward the mouth of the volcano.
Soon, the two of them stood firmly on the magma.
No matter how high the temperature of the magma was, it didn't have much effect on experts of their level.
Dongfang Xue was skilled in the Dao of Water.
Gu Xuan, on the other hand, was the owner of the Sovereign Flame. He could suppress all flames in the world. The temperature of the magma was nothing.
Even if the temperature was a hundred times higher, he wouldn't be afraid.
"Now that we're here, the feeling is even clearer.
The two fire elemental auras, one wants to erupt, and the other is trying its best to prevent it from erupting.
This is very interesting. I think we should go into the magma and take a look. "
Gu Xuan smiled faintly. A light barrier enveloped him and Dongfang Xue.
Dong!
The two jumped into the magma and were quickly submerged. At the bottom of the magma, a pair of vicious eyes suddenly opened!
