The news of the Heavenly Stellar Kingdom's annihilation spread like the wind across the entire Burning Sky Kingdom.
At the same time, the news of a sect named 'Heavenly Stellar Orthodox' taking over the Heavenly Stellar Kingdom also spread across the Burning Sky Kingdom.
With such a sect name, a portion of the martial artists believed that the Heavenly Stellar Kingdom's annihilation was just a smokescreen.
Changing from a kingdom to a sect was just a change of name. In fact, it was just a change of name.
However, most of the martial artists believed that the Heavenly Stellar Kingdom's annihilation was a fact.
The Heavenly Stellar Kingdom was the most influential faction in the Western Territory and had a long history.
How could such a faction change its name so easily and change from a kingdom to a sect?
If there was really a change, it would involve too many things. In these troubled times, it was simply looking for trouble.
Many factions sent out scouts or contacted scouts that were already in the Heavenly Stellar Kingdom's territory to start investigating.
The Heavenly Stellar Orthodox naturally became the focus of the investigation.
The Heavenly Stellar Orthodox's Matriarch was even more important.
The results of the investigation shocked everyone.
The Heavenly Stellar Orthodox's Matriarch was actually a beautiful young lady and she was just a mid-level saint.
In the sect, the strongest person was a peak stage saint called 'Deep Ascension Mountain Lord'.
With the addition of the few saints, this was the entire elite combat strength of the Heavenly Stellar Orthodox.
It was obvious that the investigation results weren't satisfactory.
The Heavenly Stellar Kingdom's new ruler, the 'Cloud Lord', was a consummate level expert according to all the information.
Without a consummate level expert, how could the Heavenly Stellar Orthodox kill the Cloud Lord? How could they annihilate the Heavenly Stellar Kingdom?
Therefore, all the factions that were interested in the Heavenly Stellar Orthodox increased their investigation efforts and wanted to find out everything about the Heavenly Stellar Orthodox. They wanted to find out the sect's consummate level expert that was hiding behind the scenes.
It was a pity that they didn't find anything.
Only a few of the elite factions in the Burning Sky Kingdom knew what happened.
After all, Gu Xuan didn't completely conceal his tracks during the journey.
Factions like the heaven dao faction, the Wufang Bitter Land, the Central Origin Region, and the Vermillion Bird Immortal Sect all knew that the Heavenly Stellar Orthodox was established by Gu Xuan and he was also the one that annihilated the Heavenly Stellar Kingdom.
The Echo Heaven Sect and the Heavenly Stellar Kingdom already had grudges and it was already a situation where one party had to die. They might be surprised that Gu Xuan suddenly annihilated the Heavenly Stellar Kingdom, but they didn't investigate too deeply.
There was no need to investigate further.
Even the Heavenly Law Camp, which boasted that it was their responsibility to maintain the order of the Burning Sky Realm and protect the safety of the Burning Sky Realm, did not express any opinions on this matter.
That was because the people from the Heavenly Dao Faction knew very well that the opinions they expressed were probably no different from bullshit in Gu Xuan's eyes. He wouldn't even look at them, so they couldn't hurt him at all.
Three days passed quickly.
Within the capital of Tianchen High Country, the area where the royal palace was located had changed completely.
There were all kinds of pavilions and buildings, all in the standard style of the sect.
In the core area of the sect, Gu Xuan set up a defensive formation with impressive defensive power. Then, he left the rest of the details to his subordinates.
Furthermore, he had already contacted the Response Heaven Sect's scouts that were originally in the Heavenly Star Nation. He had ordered them to move the Response Heaven Sect's stronghold in the Western Territory directly to the Heavenly Star Nation.
On the surface, Gu Xuan did not expect the Heaven Echo Sect's secret bases in other territories to be able to do much.
Their safety was much more important than their intelligence.
Of course, this did not mean that Gu Xuan did not value information.
On the contrary, he knew better than anyone the importance of information.
However, when it came to gathering information, how could the scouts compare to the Earth-drilling Mouse?
At this moment, in a pavilion in the Heavenly Star Nation Sect.
Gu Xuan was playing with the Earth-drilling Mouse in his hand. After casually tossing a pill into its mouth, he tossed it into a pond not far away.
"Splash."
The Earth-drilling Mouse dived into the water and dived into the depths of the pond. It found a hole at the bottom of the pond and dived in.
This small hole looked ordinary, but it was full of twists and turns, leading to an extremely deep underground place.
There was a fat Earth-drilling Mouse there. It was like a rock, motionless, waiting for the Earth-drilling Mouse with the pill in its mouth to arrive.
Soon, the Earth-drilling Mouse with the pill in its mouth arrived. It respectfully spat out the pill in its mouth.
The fat Earth-drilling Mouse picked it up with its mouth. The power of the earth surged from its body. It actually used the Earth Escape Technique and blended into the earth, disappearing without a trace.
If there were people who were proficient in alchemy here and saw this scene, who knew how shocked they would be.
Of course, they were not shocked by the Earth-drilling Mouse's Earth Escape Technique, but by the pill.
That elixir was no ordinary elixir. It was an extremely precious elixir that contained the medicinal properties of at least ten Ninth Grade Elixirs.
If one were to examine it carefully, they would find that it seemed to contain an extremely rich aura of a divine pill!
That level of divine pill aura was equivalent to half a divine pill.
Such a pill could be said to be priceless. In the current Burning Sky Realm, it was likely that only Saint Lords were qualified to consume it.
At this moment, in an extremely deep underground cave near the distant Ying Tian Sect.
A gigantic Earth-drilling Mouse with a body like a small mountain and a face that was charmingly naive was walking on its hind legs. It kept pacing with its short legs, as if it was waiting for something.
"Damn it, that lazy mouse's Earth Escape Technique is too lousy. It actually runs so slowly.
This way, by the time Boss's pill reaches me, half a month will have passed.
I am now at an important juncture of my advancement. How can I wait so long?
It is better to use the teleportation array. The price might be a little high, but I can't wait that long! "
The gigantic Earth-drilling Mouse painfully made its decision.
Inside the pavilion of the Tianchen Orthodox Sect.
"Little mouse, little mouse, don't disappoint me.
You are now a high-level Saint Realm Earth-drilling Mouse King.
My pill should be able to help you break through to the peak stage of the Saint Realm.
However, it is still up to you whether you succeed or not.
Even if you succeed, you will not be able to become a peak stage Saint Realm.
As the leader of my Ying Tian Sect's intelligence, you have to at least reach the perfection stage before it is enough! "
Gu Xuan recalled the appearance of the little mouse back then.
Speaking of which, he and the little mouse had not met for many years.
However, both of them had been using various methods to communicate.
Of course, they did not communicate much. Most of the time, it was the little mouse reporting the information he had gathered.
"Back then, I entered the Small Purgatory and brought back the big stone and the little mouse.
In the blink of an eye, so many years have passed.
The little mouse has already broken through the shackles a few times and became a Saint-level Earth-drilling Mouse King.
Time really flies. "
Gu Xuan lamented.
"Young Master, the Earth-drilling Mouse that you released earlier seemed to be very unusual.
It seems to be much more intelligent than regular rat-type beasts. "
Outside the pavilion, Liu Yinyin carried some dishes and placed them on the jade table.
Earlier on, she saw Gu Xuan throwing the Earth-drilling Mouse into the water.
Gu Xuan smiled.
"That Earth-drilling Mouse is indeed a little special.
That is my Ying Tian Sect's intelligence rat. It might be at the outermost perimeter, but it isn't comparable to regular rat-type beasts.
Keep this command medallion well. "
Gu Xuan took out an exquisite token.
There was a fat mouse carved on the token and it looked charmingly naïve.
Liu Yinyin received the token and was a little confused. She did not know what this token was used for.
Gu Xuan smiled and said, "Once this token is activated, it can sense all the Earth-drilling Mice within a 100-mile radius and order them to do things for you.
Of course, they are normally only used to collect information.
They are also capable of delivering small things like elixirs. "
Liu Yinyin was pleasantly surprised. "I see!"
With a thought, a memory fragment flew out from Gu Xuan's fingertip and entered between Liu Yinyin's eyebrows.
"Your constitution is very special.
I will give you a trace of Divine Soul power that can conceal your constitution.
In addition, there is a cultivation technique in the memory fragment. It is the 'Weak Water Sword' that I tailor-made for you!
This cultivation technique is both offensive and defensive. Cultivate it well. If you can reach greater mastery, your strength will be undefeatable among martial artists of the same realm. "
Liu Yinyin nodded in surprise, but she soon reacted.
"Young Master, are you leaving so soon?"
