Feigning Defeat
Gu Xuan sent Xuan Yun flying, but he didn't even look at him. Instead, he glanced around the entire Xuan Sect.
Since he released the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron, it had been trembling as if it had an instinct to fly in a certain direction.
Gu Xuan recognized that the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron wanted to fly to the highest palace of Xuan Sect.
"It seems that the Art of Heaven-Repairing is hidden there!" Gu Xuan was sure and he was thinking about how to get there.
Suddenly, two figures rushed up to the sky. They were Astro Sovereign, who had retreated awkwardly, and Xuan Yun, who had been sent flying.
"I will crush your bones and scatter your ashes!" Xuan Yun's face was ferocious. He was a four-star Martial Emperor, but he was sent flying by a grandmaster. Even if he didn't use his full strength, it was still a great humiliation!
Gu Xuan smiled and called out the Ancient Mansion of Flame Demon. He put the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron in and said with a smile, "See? I have put the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron in my spiritual treasure. If you kill me, you will never be able to get the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron back. Oh, by the way, I hid the five seventh-grade Heaven-Repairing Elixirs in the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron. "
When Gu Xuan said that, Xuan Yun's eyes were almost spitting fire. It was a blatant threat! This guy was too hateful!
"This is intolerable! Do you really think that I don't dare to kill you? The Xuan Sect has the Art of Heaven-Repairing Cauldron and Heaven-Repairing Elixirs. Even if you hide the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron and Heaven-Repairing Elixirs at the end of the world, as long as the Taoist Sect takes action, we can use heaven-defying means to find them. "
Xuan Yun smiled ferociously.
"So, you're going to die now! I didn't use my full strength just now, so you took advantage of me. Now, I will let you know the real horror of a four-star Martial Emperor! "
The corners of Gu Xuan's mouth curled up into an undetectable smile. His plan had already succeeded by half.
His goal was to infuriate Xuan Yun. As long as Xuan Yun wanted to kill him, he would pretend to be weak and not be a match for her. Then, he would lure Xuan Yun to use her killing move on him.
"The Astro Emperor doesn't have the Art of Repairing Heaven. If he wants the Heaven Repairing Cauldron and the Heaven Repairing Pellet, he has to capture me alive and force me to give them to him. Therefore, he won't let Xuan Yun do that to me. This way, things will be easier. "Gu Xuan's eyes narrowed. Everything was under his control.
"If you want to fight, then stand up, loser! Let's see how many palms you can take this time! "Gu Xuan stared at Xuan Yun with disdain.
Xuan Yun was completely enraged. As the sect master of the Xuan Sect, one of the three major Daoist sub-sects, when had anyone dared to speak to him like this?
His body suddenly grew taller, like a towering mountain pressing down. A heavy aura enveloped a radius of two hundred feet, and the space seemed to have been compressed. The dust that was originally floating in the air was actually pressed into nothingness at this time.
"Earth Class Level Two Martial Art, Falling Mountain!"
The horrible pressure pressed down on Gu Xuan fiercely.
Gu Xuan's face was as calm as an ancient well. He stood still in the void, as if the huge pressure above his head didn't exist at all.
He was gambling, gambling on a sure-win bet!
In an instant, Gu Xuan only felt that there seemed to be an unbearable weight on his shoulder that could crush him into a meat patty at any time. However, he still didn't move.
Below, among the disciples of the Xuan Sect, Elder Zi, who was wearing an inner disciple's uniform and only showed his King Stage cultivation, couldn't help but change his expression. Xuan Yun's attack was too strong. If Gu Xuan didn't dodge, he would definitely die. Elder Zi had to go up to rescue him.
However, before Elder Zi took action, Astro Emperor, whose face was livid, had already taken action. Although he knew that he was being used by Gu Xuan, he couldn't resist. The Three Treasures of the Xuan Sect were too important for him.
His body moved swiftly, like a dragon flying in the sky. He held a dragon-shaped weapon in his hand and waved it at Gu Xuan's head fiercely!
A crescent-shaped light shot out. Wherever it passed, the void trembled. With a boom, Xuan Yun's attack was blocked.
"How dare you! How dare you stop me? I will kill you first!" Xuan Yun roared and performed her strongest martial art. She didn't care about Gu Xuan anymore, but attacked Astro Emperor instead.
Gu Xuan showed a victorious smile. As he expected, Astro Emperor had to save him. Otherwise, if he died, the Ancient Mansion of Flame Demon couldn't be opened. If the people of Taoism came later, Astro Emperor would have no chance to get the Heaven Repairing Cauldron and the Heaven Repairing Pellet.
In the aftermath of the explosion, Gu Xuan took advantage of the chaos and fell down. He quietly blended into the disciples of the Xuan Sect.
Soon, Gu Xuan and Elder Zi gathered together. They left the Medicine Palace from underground and came to the highest palace in the Xuan Sect to hide.
"You really scared me just now. I thought you were seriously injured by Xuan Yun. I was hesitating to go out and save you. I didn't expect that Astro Emperor would attack you." Elder Zi was still scared. If Gu Xuan died, this trip to the Xuan Sect would be a complete failure.
Gu Xuan said seriously, "With my current power, I can fight against a three-star Martial Emperor with my full power. But a four-star Martial Emperor can definitely defeat me. Once they attack me seriously, I can only run away like what I did just now. What we need to do now is to find one of the three treasures of the Xuan Sect, the Heaven Repairing Skill. "
"Oh?" Elder Zi was confused, "Did you really get the Heaven Repairing Pellet and the Heaven Repairing Cauldron?"
Gu Xuan nodded, "Of course. I didn't expect to get so many things in this trip to the Xuan Sect. These two things are enough. "
Elder Zi asked tentatively, "Why don't we take advantage of the chaos and leave?"
"We can't. Although the Xuan Sect is in chaos, it is still one of the three sub-schools of the Taoist Sect. It is easy to get in but hard to get out. If I am not wrong, the entire Xuan Sect has been sealed. It is very difficult for us to get out quietly. And once we make a noise, Astro Emperor and Xuan Yun will come to stop us immediately. So, we should find the Heaven Repairing Skill first and wait for the right time. "Gu Xuan analyzed.
"That's the only way. But, how do you know that the Heaven Repairing Skill is in this palace? "Elder Zi looked at the highest palace of the Xuan Sect.
"Because the Heaven Repairing Cauldron seems to want to come here." Gu Xuan said as he used his soul power to check the palace.
Gu Xuan was surprised to find that there were two Martial Emperors hiding in this palace. He immediately told Elder Zi about it.
"Elder Zi, why don't we play a double act?" Gu Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up.
"How?" Elder Zi was stunned.
"Like this!" Gu Xuan raised the God Killing Bone Spear and pointed it at Elder Zi's throat. The two of them walked out of their hiding place. It looked like Gu Xuan was holding an inner disciple of the Xuan Sect hostage.
"Since you said that this is where Xuan Yun cultivates, then take me in! There must be treasures of that old guy in here! "
Gu Xuan held Elder Zi hostage and walked along the corridor into the palace. As he walked, he used his soul power to check every place he passed.
With a hostage in hand, as expected, they didn't encounter any restrictions or traps along the way. It was simply unbelievably smooth. Gu Xuan even suspected that it was the work of Elder Zi, an "inner court disciple," or that there was no Heavenly Restoration Technique hidden here at all.
Soon, Gu Xuan and Elder Zi came to the center of the palace. In front of a room that couldn't be more ordinary.
The Heaven Repairing Cauldron in the Ancient Mansion of Flame Demons was shaking more violently, as if it wanted to rush out and enter the room.
Gu Xuan used his soul power to check the room, but found nothing. He frowned. This room could make the Heaven Repairing Cauldron more violently. It was definitely not simple.
Gu Xuan pushed the door open and entered. He still didn't encounter any obstacles.
The room wasn't big. It looked ordinary, but it gave people an indescribable and strange feeling.
"It seems that I can only see the secret of this place if I release the Heaven Repairing Cauldron."
Gu Xuan thought and the Heaven Repairing Cauldron flew out of the Ancient Mansion of Flame Demons.
