A Talking Curse
Gu Xuan didn't know that so many things had happened just now. Otherwise, if he knew that someone in the Vermilion Bird Celestial Sect actually suspected him of having ulterior motives, he would have already given enough face to the Vermilion Bird Celestial Sect if he didn't turn around and leave.
As for removing the curse, that would depend on Gu Xuan's mood.
Just now, Gu Xuan withstood the 16 times heavenly tribulation alone. That kind of exhaustion was far from even an ordinary Three-star Great Emperor.
Gu Xuan needing to rest was a very normal thing. The elders of the Vermilion Bird Celestial Sect were all hoping that Gu Xuan could save Ancestor Yue, so why would they have any objections?
Zhu Wudi's group slowly landed in Ancestor Yue's small courtyard.
They were already prepared to wait for ten days to half a month to let Gu Xuan recuperate properly. In any case, they had waited for so many years, so this little bit of time didn't matter.
Clearly, the upper echelons of the Vermilion Bird Celestial Sect all took Gu Xuan's "recuperation a little bit" as polite words. Merely 15 minutes later, when they saw Gu Xuan walk into the small courtyard in high spirits, they were instantly dumbfounded.
It turned out that recuperating a little bit was really just a little bit!
Fairy Fei Hong's eyes were filled with unconcealable joy. "Why are you so fast? Have you recovered from your injuries? "
Gu Xuan said doubtfully, "I said just recuperating a little bit, how long can it take? With the help of Little Lotus and the ten Medicine Ancestors, as long as it's not a life-threatening injury, even an ordinary martial artist will recover very quickly. Moreover, I'm an Alchemy Emperor! "
Gu Xuan's words were very sincere, but in the eyes of the Vermilion Bird Celestial Sect's upper echelons, this was posturing. Moreover, it was the highest level of posturing — formless posturing.
Formless posturing was the most fatal!
The elders were clearly about to cry. Could an ordinary martial artist really have so many Medicine Ancestors? Could they subdue Medicine Emperors?
Even the entire Vermilion Bird Celestial Sect only had a total of two or three Medicine Ancestors, and they were still tightly guarded by that group of alchemists like treasures. Whoever dared to take a second look would put on a desperate posture.
Although Ancestor Yue looked calm when he saw Gu Xuan's arrival, a kind of excitement flashed across his eyes. Clearly, he had been suppressed for too long.
The Three Peak Elder said indifferently, "Looking Alchemy Emperor, I'm sure you already have a card up your sleeve. However, before removing the curse, I want to test you. Do you know why I've been staying in this small courtyard all this time? "
Zhu Wudi, Daoist Feather, Fairy Feihong, and the other elders frowned at the same time.
To test Gu Xuan like this, it was clear that he did not trust Gu Xuan. With such an attitude, if Gu Xuan encountered some eccentric alchemist and was questioned by an outsider, he would probably turn around and leave directly.
Gu Xuan curled the corners of his mouth and didn't care at all.
He surveyed the small courtyard and a faint smile appeared on his face. "If I'm not mistaken, this small courtyard is actually a large formation — the Vermilion Bird Holy Sealing Formation! According to legend, it was a formation that could even seal a Saint Realm expert. Unfortunately, it wasn't complete. However, it was still possible to seal Old Ancestor Yue's strength.
Moreover, this great array did not have any restrictions. Forefather Yue could still choose to leave freely. It could be said that although the array formation was strong, it was incomparably useless. You can only deal with your own people. "
Gu Xuan's last sentence was filled with sarcasm.
The third elder's expression immediately turned ugly. This was because Gu Xuan's gaze was fixed on him when he said this. It was obvious that he was saying this to him, and the meaning behind it was self-evident.
This was because currently, Gu Xuan and the Vermilion Bird Celestial Sect were in the same situation. They were both mortal enemies of the Dao Sect. Moreover, he was about to save Old Ancestor Yue. No matter how one looked at it, he was worthy of being called "one of their own".
However, the third elder was using the name of a test to make things difficult for him. Wasn't this the same as dealing with one of their own?
The third elder braced himself and said, "The Pill Emperor is indeed knowledgeable. I'm impressed!"
Gu Xuan smiled and continued, "Although this great array has many flaws and is incomplete, it is very suitable to suppress Old Ancestor Yue's strength and the curse in his body.
Otherwise, without the suppression, Old Ancestor Yue would immediately explode and be unable to control the energy in his body. He would raze half of the Vermilion Bird Celestial Sect to the ground. "
Fear appeared in everyone's eyes when Gu Xuan said this.
Even the third elder had a bitter smile on his face.
What Gu Xuan said was indeed something that had happened before.
However, at that time, the curse in Old Ancestor Yue's body had not been strengthened. It was not enough to raze half of the Vermilion Bird Celestial Sect to the ground, but it had still caused great losses to the Vermilion Bird Celestial Sect.
Even Zhu Wudi had been seriously injured in that battle and lost the possibility of further improvement.
At the same time, several old farts of the Blood Sealing Sect had also fallen. Only then was Old Ancestor Yue forced to retreat to the small courtyard and regain his consciousness.
Since that incident, the Vermilion Bird Celestial Sect had completely declined. The gap between them and the Dao Sect had also widened.
At this point, no one dared to question Gu Xuan anymore.
If he really harbored evil intentions against the Vermilion Bird Celestial Sect, he did not need to do anything to Old Ancestor Yue. He only needed to secretly destroy the Vermilion Bird Holy Bestowment Formation and the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Now, Old Ancestor Yue, please stand in front of me. Everyone else, retreat to the sky and protect me and Old Ancestor Yue. We cannot be disturbed in the slightest."
Gu Xuan was extremely serious.
Zhu Wudi and the others heard this and flew into the sky one after another. They were on high alert.
Old Ancestor Yue strode to half a foot in front of Gu Xuan and sat down cross-legged on the ground.
Gu Xuan's hands formed a mysterious seal. It was the Yuling Art.
Ten Medicine Ancestors suddenly flew out and landed around Gu Xuan. They transformed into warriors and breathed in spiritual energy and medicinal power while protecting Gu Xuan.
Xiao Lian hovered above Old Ancestor Yue's head. She was fuming and pouting her lips. Clearly, she was unwilling to help Gu Xuan save Old Ancestor Yue.
She was a dignified Medicine Emperor with a revered status. Now, she had been reduced to the same treatment as the Medicine Ancestors. Gu Xuan could easily transform her into a warrior without her freedom.
Gu Xuan smiled mysteriously. "Don't be unhappy. The curse in Old Ancestor Yue's body is a great tonic for you. When the curse comes out later, don't let it escape. You slippery little thing, don't think I don't know that you can resist the Yuling Art. "
Xiao Lian was half-convinced and half-doubtful. She did not speak, but put away her disdainful gaze and became vigilant.
Light flashed in Gu Xuan's eyes. His hands formed an extremely mysterious seal. Mysterious runes and runes rushed out from between his brows and combined into a mysterious form. With a swoosh, they entered Old Ancestor Yue's head.
Wisps of black smoke immediately rose from Old Ancestor Yue's body.
Cold sweat emerged from Old Ancestor Yue's body. In just a moment, his clothes were soaked.
This curse had already penetrated deep into his bones and fused into his flesh and blood. Moreover, it had already contaminated more than half of the flames he refined.
Even Old Ancestor Yue's soul was similarly slightly contaminated.
All kinds of reasons combined, this was the reason why the power in his body went out of control the moment he left the small courtyard. Even his mind lost control.
To be able to plant this level of curse in Old Ancestor Yue's body, there was no need to think. Apart from Dao Gate, there were no other forces in the two realms that had this kind of strength.
Wanting to remove this kind of curse could be imagined how difficult it was!
However, although this was difficult for Gu Xuan, it was absolutely not an impossible matter.
The black smoke suspended in the void suddenly condensed into a skull.
"Pill Emperor, I have no enmity with you. Why do you want to remove me from the host's body?"
The skull opened its mouth to speak, its voice shaking the clouds.
The faces of the elders in the sky changed at the same time.
A curse that could speak? This was simply unheard of!
Such a strange curse. Could it be that removing the curse would lead to unexpected changes?
