"Not only do I have to protect the Pill Lord, but I also have to train Li Yuanhao to become a Pill Saint and a peak stage First Tribulation.
These two things added together could be said to be hellish difficulty.
I don't know how much effort I have to put in to do such a difficult thing.
No matter how much the reward is, it is still very reasonable. "
Gu Xuan thought happily in his heart.
Pill Saint of the East Wall narrowed his eyes and looked at Gu Xuan seriously.
"I asked you to do me two favors. Of course, there are two things in return.
First, I will tell you a shocking secret.
Second, I can show you a way out. "
The corner of Gu Xuan's mouth twitched a few times.
What was Pill Saint of the East Wall talking about?
She understood every single word that he said, but why couldn't she understand the meaning behind his words when they were strung together?
A shocking secret?
Show him a way out?
What the hell was this?
Gu Xuan suddenly became alert.
"Senior, don't tell me you want to fool me because I am young?
I am not afraid to tell you that I have lived two lives. At most, I am one or two hundred years old. If I live in the mortal world, I can live five lives at the same time! You are a real old man! "
Pill Saint of the East Wall laughed.
"One or two hundred years old?
Five lives at the same time?
Are you trying to make me laugh?
When I was young, my great-grandson had already become the ancestor of my family.
You … "Before he could finish his words, Pill Saint of the East Wall's face changed.
"What? You are only one or two hundred years old?"
Although Pill Saint of the East Wall called Gu Xuan a "young man", in his heart, he was still teasing him. He thought that Gu Xuan would be at least a few thousand years old.
He never expected that Gu Xuan was only one or two hundred years old.
One or two hundred years old was nothing in the world of martial artists.
When he was still alive, he could go into seclusion and take a nap, and perhaps thousands of years would have passed.
However, this young man in front of him was only one or two hundred years old, and he had already become a peerless Pill Emperor and a high-level Saint Emperor. In terms of combat power, he was comparable to a peak Normal Perfection Saint Emperor! Since when had the world become so crazy?! Pill Saint of the East Wall's eyes flashed as he stared at Gu Xuan carefully.
If he didn't investigate, he wouldn't have known. Now that he did, he had the urge to vomit blood.
"The strength of your soul has actually reached the level of perfection of the first tribulation?"
What kind of monster was this?! Gu Xuan was speechless and confused.
"You were able to discover the Sky Burying Golden Coffin in my body. I thought you had already seen through me.
You can't even see through my age and the power of my soul? "
Alchemy Saint of the East Wall was also speechless.
"I can sense that you have the Sky Burying Golden Coffin, which is related to the coffin in my tomb.
Right now, I'm just a remnant soul. Doing anything requires a lot of energy.
Why would I check your age and the power of your soul for no reason?
I knew you were a peerless genius, but I didn't expect you to be so monstrous.
If that's the case, you need to make a deal with me even more. "
Gu Xuan chuckled.
"Let's get to the point. If you delay any longer, I'm afraid that the Paragon of Pills will be dead before I even get out.
Hurry up and tell me your so-called 'shocking secret'.
Let me hear just how 'shocking' it is! Let me make it clear first. If this secret has nothing to do with me, I won't admit it. "
Pill Saint Dongbi glanced at Gu Xuan disdainfully.
"The flow of time here is much slower than the outside world. Don't worry, I know what to do.
Don't worry, the secret definitely has something to do with you.
Do you know that your path of alchemy has been cut off by 99%?
Under normal circumstances, you won't be able to become a pill saint! "
Gu Xuan's eyes widened, and his expression changed.
If it were someone else who said this, he wouldn't even believe a single punctuation mark.
But when it came from the mouth of the Eastern Wall Pill Saint, it was different.
"Senior, what do you mean?
There shouldn't be anything wrong with my path of alchemy.
Moreover, I'm confident that as long as I'm fully prepared, I have at least a ninety percent chance of becoming a pill saint.
How can my path of alchemy be cut off by 99%? "
Gu Xuan was extremely puzzled. He couldn't wait to ask.
Pill Saint Dongbi didn't immediately explain. He shook his herb hoe slightly, and the herb basket on his back flew out.
In a flash, the herb basket floated in front of Gu Xuan.
A mysterious aura emanated from the herb basket.
This aura was extremely ancient and filled with a sense of eternity. It was as if it was something that could exist for eternity. Just a single glance at it would cause one to feel intoxicated.
Gu Xuan couldn't help but look at the herb basket.
Deep inside the herb basket was a sheet of white light.
Within the white light, there was a strange scene.
All of a sudden, the grotesque scene changed, and a Heavenspan Dao of Pills appeared. It was vast and majestic, stretching from the Heavens to the Earth. It was impossible to tell how long it was, but it was a spectacular sight.
Gu Xuan recognized at a glance that it was his heavenly path of alchemy.
At the same time, he keenly noticed that there was something extra on this path of alchemy. "That's …" Gu Xuan stared at the beginning of the heavenly path of alchemy. A small mark that was almost integrated with the path of alchemy appeared there.
Gu Xuan's Delusion-Breaker Eyes opened almost instantly.
All the patterns and energy circulation patterns on that small mark were clearly seen by him.
"A seal! It's actually a seal! "
Gu Xuan was shocked to the extreme.
His expression became incomparably solemn. He pulled his gaze away from the herb basket and looked at the sky. He waved his right hand suddenly.
Rumble.
A heavenly path of alchemy appeared in the sky.
Gu Xuan released his heavenly path of alchemy out of caution.
Nothing could be seen on the heavenly path of alchemy. There was no shadow of a seal.
This was within Gu Xuan's expectations. If he could see the seal by releasing his heavenly path of alchemy, he would have discovered it long ago and wouldn't have waited until now.
Delusion-Breaker Eyes and the power of the spirit were activated together! After probing for a while, Gu Xuan's face finally became completely gloomy.
"Who is it that dared to play such a trick on me?
Knowing that I won't suspect that there's a problem with my alchemy, he deliberately did this for me and left such a seal.
If I really become an alchemy saint, not only will failure be inevitable, my alchemy path will be completely ruined! Even my current attainments in alchemy might not be able to preserve it! "
Gu Xuan clenched his fists tightly. The memories in his mind froze into many scenes, flashing quickly like he was looking at flowers on horseback.
He wanted to find out who the culprit was! However, his memories were extremely complicated. How could he possibly find out who did this to him in such a short period of time?
If it was so easy to find out who the culprit was, he would have discovered it long ago instead of waiting until now.
However, why would Gu Xuan give up so easily?
His mind was filled with thoughts. If he couldn't find the culprit, he wouldn't be able to eat or sleep in peace.
"There's no point thinking about it. There aren't many people who are able to leave such a seal on your heavenly path of alchemy without you noticing it.
You only need to lock onto a few key people, and then go through their memories.
However, there's a high chance that you won't find the culprit.
The person who is able to do this without anyone noticing would not leave any clues behind. "
Pill Sage Dongbi did not think that Gu Xuan would be able to find the culprit.
Gu Xuan harrumphed coldly as he performed a mystical hand seal with his hands.
"I don't believe I can't find him! Power of Karma, help me! Trace to the source! "
Gu Xuan's eyes shone brightly as the power of Karma surged out of his body and condensed into a giant dragon. With a roar, it flew toward the heavenly path of alchemy.
Soon, the Karma Dragon approached the seal and slammed into it! Boom! The Karma Dragon exploded, transforming into countless threads of Karma. They were densely packed together, seemingly without end. They wanted to enter the intricate seal and search for the source of its appearance.
Unfortunately, a powerful backlash came from the seal and devoured all the threads of Karma. Gu Xuan's efforts were in vain.
Gu Xuan's body trembled violently.
"How dare you devour my threads of Karma?
However, don't think you can stop me from finding you! I'll use my lifespan to exchange for power. I'll track the origin of this seal at all costs! Great Sacrificial Art! "
Gu Xuan began to burn his lifespan. He wanted to use the Great Sacrificial Art to exchange his lifespan for enough Karma power.
Then, he would use the Great Karma Art again to find the culprit who had placed the seal on him! An altar appeared beneath Gu Xuan's feet.
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened! A ray of light shot out from the seal!
