On the first day that White Cloud Sect settled down, Gu Sheng took everyone to retreat with Xuan Tie.

Staying in the dark room, Bai Yu sighed sadly.

"Gu Sheng, why are you in a hurry? We haven't felt the movement of King Luo yet. Can't we just enjoy it for a few days? We White Cloud Sect have a lot of fine wines and delicious food. You haven't even tasted one, and you're not greedy?"

"I'm not you, how can I be so greedy? And we have no news about King Luo. No one knows whether he has taken action. What if he is already on the way here and we haven't made anything that can break soft armor. Do you want to watch White Cloud Sect be attacked?"

After Gu Sheng finished speaking, Lan Yao said with a smile, "Bai Yu, this is your own sect, and you are so careless? Do you believe it or not? I will tell your father and let him deal with you according to his family's laws."

Hearing this, Bai Ri rolled her eyes at him.

"My dad wouldn't do that. Stop scaring me with this."

"If you're not afraid, then don't be afraid. You're not afraid of what your father will do to you. Aren't you afraid that something will happen to the White Cloud Sect?"

This time, Bai Yu nodded.

"Don't tell me, I'm still quite scared about this. After all, I've seen the power of those dead soldiers, and I still have lingering fears."

Upon hearing his words, Gu Sheng directly handed him a piece of black iron.

"Since you know you are afraid, act quickly. We will research something that can break the soft armor as soon as possible. White Cloud Sect will be a little safer."

Gu Sheng gave each of them a piece of black iron, but everyone didn't know where to start.

"Gu Sheng, what should we do?"

"Let's see what spell can melt these dark irons. If you want to make a weapon, you must melt it. This is the first and crucial step."

"You haven't found a way to melt it yet?"

"No."

Gu Sheng answered calmly, but the others were not calm anymore.

They originally pointed to Gu Sheng to complete it on their own, but now they learned that Gu Sheng had no clue, so they got involved.

Seeing that they finally calmed down, Gu Sheng slightly curled his lips.

After two days of studying like this, everyone no longer had the original intention of joking, and everyone had a sad look on their face.

"Gu Sheng, this black iron is extremely hard and cannot be melted. It has been a day and a night and there is nothing we can do. What should I do?"

As he said this, Bai Yu scratched his head irritably.

Seeing that everyone looked restless, Gu Sheng put down the black iron in his hand and sighed softly.

He tried every method he could, but the black iron really couldn't be melted. It seemed that he really needed to think of another method.

When Gu Sheng calmed down, everyone unconsciously became quiet.

Everyone glanced at him from time to time, and seeing that he also had a frown on his face, they could only sigh secretly in their hearts.

I don't know how long it took, but a bright light suddenly flashed on Gu Sheng's body.

After noticing something, everyone opened their eyes to see it.

Gu Sheng ignored them and waved his hands slightly.

When there was a reaction in his Dantian, he opened his thin lips lightly, and the spirit beads flew out of his body.

The moment they saw the spirit bead, everyone was dumbfounded.

Gu Sheng has almost refined the spirit bead, and it has basically become one with him. Now that he spits out the spirit bead, it is no less than giving away half of his life!

"Gu Sheng, this is too risky!"

Hong Mei stood up suddenly with a look of horror on his face.

"King Luo will take action soon, so we can't worry about that much anymore."

"That won't work! If you fail, you will be greatly affected!"

After Hong Mei finished speaking, Bai Yu also stood up.

"Hong Mei is right! It's too risky for you to do this! I know you are doing it for our White Cloud Sect good, but I can't let you take such a big risk, even if my father will never let you do this again!"

After the words fell, the two of them looked at each other and worked together to put Gu Sheng's spirit bead back.

Feeling the movements of the two people, Gu Sheng raised his hand and waved, causing the spirit beads to fall directly on Xuantie.

"The spirit bead is out of the body, so you can't move around. It really has a great impact on me."

"But..."

"There is no such thing as a matter of urgency. I must give it a try. You will protect me."

Seeing that he had made up his mind and there was no room for change, everyone could only grit their teeth and protect him.

The spirit bead controlled by Gu Sheng landed on the black iron. Then he pressed his wrist down suddenly, and a large stream of spiritual energy flew out from the spirit bead. Gu Sheng's face immediately turned pale.

However, he didn't care so much, he just controlled the spiritual power of the spirit bead to melt the black iron.

A large amount of spiritual power rushed towards Xuan Tie without any change.

Gu Sheng gritted his teeth and released his spiritual power again.

As soon as the spiritual power left the body, his face turned a little pale again, but this time, Xuan Tie had obviously changed!

Seeing the changes in the black iron, Gu Sheng started refining it regardless.

He collected all the black iron in one place, spread it neatly on top with his spiritual power, and then used all his strength to refine the black iron.

Not long after, waves of heat began to rise in the room.

Gu Sheng summoned a small cauldron to hang over everyone, and then concentrated on refining black iron.

His strength was released bit by bit, and his face became paler every time. When the last bit of black iron was about to be refined, Gu Sheng's face was already ugly, and his body began to shake, and it was obvious that he could no longer hold up.

Looking away, Hong Mei frowned slightly, and Gu Sheng immediately held up his breath again.

After thinking for a long time, he gritted his teeth and directly released his dantian energy.

The spirit beads and the energy of the Dantian were released together, Gu Sheng was equivalent to giving up his entire life.

He used his spiritual energy to protect his Dantian energy, and Nongmei and others did not notice it.

Taking this opportunity, Gu Sheng refined all the remaining black iron, then divided it into a dozen equal parts, and forged them all into the shape of a sword.

When the last knife fell to the ground, Gu Sheng felt that his eyes were completely dark, and the energy in his Dantian was instantly cut off.

While he still had some consciousness, he raised his hand, recalled the spirit bead, swallowed it, and then fell heavily to the ground.

Feeling Gu Sheng's aura disappear in an instant, Hong Mei and others immediately opened their eyes.

The moment they opened their eyes, Gu Sheng fell heavily to the ground.

Seeing this scene, the blood on everyone's faces instantly faded, and everyone opened their eyes in horror.

"Gu Sheng!"

"Brother Sheng!"

In the darkness, Gu Sheng vaguely heard the shouts of everyone, but he was unable to respond to everyone.

He had consumed almost all his strength and had withdrawn into his spiritual world at this moment. Everything in the outside world was extremely blurry to him, and then he slowly lost contact and could no longer feel any information.

Hong Mei held him in his arms, tears streaming down his face.

"Gu Sheng, what's wrong with you, don't scare me!"

On the side, Bai Yu and others were also red-eyed, and Shi Lou and Er Gou were even crying.

They shouted Gu Sheng repeatedly for a long time but there was no response. Lan Yao seemed to suddenly remember something and quickly said to Hong Mei, "Quickly check his pulse and see what's going on!"

After hearing his words, Hong Mei put his finger on Gu Sheng's pulse with trembling hands.

However, she was impatient inside and her head had long been confused. Although she was feeling the pulse of Gu Sheng at the moment, she couldn't feel anything.

For a moment, she was extremely panicked.

"What should I do? I can't feel anything."

Seeing that her hands were shaking, Bai Yu immediately stood up, kicked open the door, and yelled outside, "Dad, come help!"

The people at the White Cloud Sect didn't know what happened, but when they heard the young master's roar, they immediately ran to find Sect Master Bai.

Knowing that something happened on their side, Sect Master Bai immediately dropped what he was doing and ran over.

"What happened?"

"Gu Sheng fainted trying to make these black irons!"

"What?"

Sect Master Bai rushed in regardless, went straight to Gu Sheng, and grabbed his wrist.

He didn't speak for a long time, but his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

Seeing him like this, everyone's hearts were in their throats. Shi Lou and Er Gou cried harder and harder, unable to control themselves.

At this moment, Sect Master Bai suddenly let go of his hand and let out a heavy breath.

Seeing him like this, Bai Yu hurriedly came to him.

"Dad, how is Gu Sheng? Nothing can happen to him, nothing can happen to him!"

Looking at his son's red eyes, Sect Master Bai said softly, "Don't worry too much, Gu Sheng just consumed himself too much and released almost all his strength, that's why it became like this. We White Cloud Sect don't have many things, so he will be safe and sound."

With his words, Bai Yu and Lan Yao shed tears.

At this time, Sect Master Bai saw the weapons on the table and was shocked in place for a moment.

"This... this is all made by Gu Sheng?"

"Yes, he made it all by himself. Otherwise, how could he be like this?"

After receiving the affirmative answer, Sect Master Bai was stunned for a long time.

"Gu Sheng actually has such ability. If I wanted to practice forging these dark irons, I would probably only be able to forge a few in a week. I didn't expect that he could forge all the dark irons in just two days. What kind of strength is this!"

Hearing this, others were also stunned.

They had been with Gu Sheng for a long time and were used to this kind of thing, so they didn't feel anything strange. Now that they heard these words through Sect Master Bai's mouth, they realized Gu Sheng's superior strength!

"No wonder Peerless Hermit values Gu Sheng so much. He really has a discerning eye! Gu Sheng saved the lives of all of us White Cloud Sect!"

As soon as he said these words, Bai Yu's tears flowed even more fiercely.

"Dad, Gu Sheng is doing this all for us White Cloud Sect. You must not let anything happen to him! If you have any good things sent over, you must keep Gu Sheng intact!"

Understanding what he meant, Sect Master Bai nodded solemnly.

"Don't worry, Gu Sheng almost lost it for our White Cloud Sect. I will remember this kindness in my heart forever. I will have people prepare things right now, and I will make sure Gu Sheng remains intact!"

Not long after, the things prepared by Sect Master Bai were delivered like water.

After the things were delivered, the people from the White Cloud Sect did not leave, but said respectfully, "You have worked hard for a long time, go and rest first. The master asked us to stay and take care of Mr. Gu, and we will do our best to take good care of him."

Hearing this, everyone shook their heads.

"No, we are not tired, we stay to take care of him."

"Everyone's abilities have been exhausted. The leader has prepared a lot of nourishing things for you. You should go and recover first."

"We're doing the same thing with recovery."

Shi Lou stood beside Gu Sheng, refusing to leave despite any words. Hong Mei also walked over and directly took Gu Sheng's hand.

"This is when he is weak. I can't leave him here alone. I must stay with him."

After she finished speaking, she didn't express any other opinions.

People from the White Cloud Sect didn't expect it to be like this. They were a little dumbfounded for a moment and could only turn their heads and look at Bai Yu.

When their eyes met, Bai Yu sighed lightly.

"Gu Sheng This way, we really can't leave. You go back and tell my dad that we are here to guard him so that he doesn't have to worry."

"Sir, this..."

"Don't worry, just do as I say."

The men did not dare to disobey his orders and could only turn around and leave.

Just as they were about to go out, Bai Yu called them again.

"Wait a minute, go back and tell my father that the supplements must be delivered here like water, and the treasures that have been collected for many years must be taken out, otherwise I will go to him and steal them."

The subordinates were shocked, nodded quickly and left.

In the evening, Sect Master Bai sent another batch of supplements, including his own collection for many years.

Seeing this thing, Bai Yu was so happy that he couldn't even see it.

"My father spent half his life to get this thing back. He has kept it for many years. I asked for it several times but didn't get it. This time I finally got it."

Seeing him like this, everyone couldn't laugh or cry.

"That's your dad."

"There's nothing we can do about it. Gu Sheng was injured like this because of us White Cloud Sect. I can't sit idly by and do nothing. This is what my father took out. If he doesn't take it, I will really go to him and steal it. You guys get out of the way and I'll give this thing to him."

Upon hearing this, everyone dispersed to make way for him.

During the day, he came to Gu Sheng, and after several operations, he gave the thing to Gu Sheng.

After feeling something enter his Dantian, Bai Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

"With this thing, Gu Sheng will definitely get better tomorrow. Don't give him anything else tonight, in case the dose is exceeded. Everyone, please rest quickly. I will stay with him tonight."

Hearing this, Shi Lou and Er Gou suddenly stood up.

"Let's stay with Brother Sheng. We put in less effort than all of you. We just took some nourishing medicine, and now we're back to normal. You go and rest, and we'll just stay with Brother Sheng."

After thinking for a while, Bai Yu nodded.

"Okay, let's go restore our strength first. You guys stay and guard Gu Sheng. If anything happens, you must tell us in time. Don't carry it yourself, so as not to waste time."

Understanding what he meant, Shi Lou and Er Gou nodded together.

After dragging the reluctant Hong Mei away, everyone finally went to rest.

They left, but they didn't go too far. Instead, they rested in the rooms on the left and right of Gu Sheng. This way they could feel Gu Sheng's aura, and they could come as soon as possible if something happened to him. In this way, they could sleep peacefully.
