"Elder Yong'an, come back soon! Golden Crow Mountain Heavenly Fire Red Lotus Pearl has been stolen, and the suspicion points to the orderer Gu Sheng! Second Elder orders you to return within half a day, otherwise you will be punished for treason!"
"What?!"
Daoist Yong'an As if struck by lightning, the sword in his hand hummed mournfully.
"Gu Sheng. How dare you."
The violent sword energy erupted uncontrollably, and the forest with a radius of one kilometer was instantly razed to the ground.
Daoist Yong'an's face turned livid, he turned around and turned into a sword rainbow, heading straight for Qinghe Holy Land.
Meanwhile, the other direction.
Daoist Luomu is walking through the clouds with his disciple Hong Yun.
Suddenly, the transmission note in his sleeve vibrated. After listening to the content, the sinister-faced elder showed a strange smile.
"Master?"
Hong Yun said doubtfully.
"But have you found the traitor Gu Sheng?"
Daoist Luomu put away the transmission talisman and smiled conspiratorially.
"It's much more interesting than that. Let's go back to the Holy Land. I will take you to see a good show."
Qinghe Holy Land, Golden Crow peak.
Daoist Luomu stood in the center of the meeting hall with his hands behind his back, his green robe moving automatically without wind.
He looked around at the twelve coiled dragon jade pillars in the hall. Each pillar was engraved with the achievements of Qinghe Holy Land Holy Lords of the past generations, but at this moment, he seemed to be silently laughing at their incompetence.
"Everyone."
Daoist Luomu The sound is like gold and iron.
"That thief was able to steal Heavenly Fire Red Lotus Pearl right under our noses. It's no accident."
Second Elder Xuan Mingzi was sitting on the rosewood chair, his fingertips tapping the armrests rhythmically.
Behind him stood eight law enforcement elders, each with Qinghe Holy Land's unique Profound Ice Token hanging around their waists.
"Junior brother Luo Mu."
Xuan Mingzi narrowed his eyes.
"Are you sure that boy is Tianlan Holy Land's Gu Sheng?"
Suddenly there was the sound of rapid footsteps outside the hall.
Daoist Yong'an burst into the hall with a dusty appearance, and the hem of his robe was still stained with Golden Crow Mountain's unique reddish ash.
"Luo Mu!"
Daoist Yong'an has both hair and beard.
"What are you stirring up trouble again?"
Daoist Luomu sneered, and a green light suddenly flew out of his sleeves.
The light spread out in the air, revealing the image of Gu Sheng practicing deep in Golden Crow Mountain - the young man held a sword in one hand, and where the sword pointed, even the magma was diverted.
"Senior Brother Yong'an, please see clearly."
Daoist Luomu's fingertips touched Gu Sheng's sword in the image.
"This sword energy fluctuation is exactly the same as the peerless sword unearthed by Ten Thousand Ghosts Ridge."
Xuan Mingzi stood up suddenly, the seat making a harsh sound on the ground. "
Yongan! Why did you stop Luo Mu's pursuit that day? "
Daoist Yong'an's face changed suddenly.
Of course he remembered the young man named "Qing Feng" - he had an ordinary face but extremely bright eyes. At that time, the boy said that he was a casual cultivator and wanted to use Golden Crow Mountain earth fire to temper the magic weapon.
"Impossible!"
Daoist Yong'an suddenly drank violently.
"That kid's bone age is only twenty, how could he be Heavenly Palace Realm? Unless..."
The hall suddenly became eerily quiet. Everyone thinks of the rumor three years ago - Tianlan Holy Land's peerless genius Gu Sheng can leapfrog and kill Tiangong monks at Earth Palace stage.
Su Yongchang stumbled in at this moment.
The blood on his forehead hadn't dried yet, so it was obvious that he had just been punished.
"Master!"
Su Yongchang fell at the feet of Daoist Yong'an.
"This disciple deserves death! The test of the Earth Spirit Palace that day."
Xuan Mingzi's eyes suddenly turned cold.
He raised his hand to cast a spell, and the image recorded by the Holy Land Formation immediately appeared in the air - three months ago, Su Yongchang did lead a boy in gray around the Earth Spirit Palace detection area.
"Okay! Very good!"
Xuan Mingzi was extremely angry but smiled.
"One is neglecting his duties, and the other is shielding his enemies. You masters and disciples are truly the pillars of my Qinghe Holy Land!"
Daoist Yong'an suddenly coughed violently, and dark red blood oozed between his fingers.
He remembered Gu Sheng—no, it was the boy who called himself Qing Feng, and served him tea respectfully.
Daoist Yong'an murmured to himself.
"It turned out to be Heavenly Fire Red Lotus Pearl's idea."
Daoist Luomu took the opportunity to step forward.
"Do you still remember that when Tianlan Holy Land's old Daoist Xiushan cut off senior brother Yong'an's arm three years ago, Gu Sheng stood beside him and sneered?"
These words stabbed Daoist Yong'an's heart like a knife.
He was shaking all over, and before his eyes appeared the hateful old face of Daoist Xiushan, as well as the silent young man standing behind him.
"Pfft——"
A mouthful of blood spurted out three feet away.
When Daoist Yong'an fell down, a red spar fell out of his sleeve - it was Heavenly Fire Red Lotus Pearl's associated mineral, and the spiritual power fluctuations of Gu Sheng still remained on it.
"Put it down!"
Xuan Mingzi The furious voice shook the dome of the hall and made dust fall.
"Wait until the Holy Lord comes out of seclusion before we deal with him!"
At the same moment, Qinghe Holy Land was in the clouds three hundred miles outside the mountain gate.
Gu Sheng stepped on a long black sword, and held a red orb the size of a fist in his left hand.
There was flame flowing inside the bead, making his ordinary face flicker.
"Thirty thousand points?"
Gu Sheng looked at the fatwa that had just been handed out from Qinghe Holy Land, with a dangerous arc at the corner of his mouth.
"It's more valuable than expected."
He suddenly wiped away the disguise on his face, revealing his original handsome face.
A golden line is looming between the eyebrows - it is the symbol of the Heavenly Palace Realm's great perfection.
Suddenly there was a sound of breaking through the air in the mountains and forests below.
Gu Sheng made a backhand sword without looking back, and the hundred-foot-long sword light cut off the five Qinghe Holy Land deacons who were attacking.
"Tell Xuan Mingzi."
Gu Sheng's voice mixed with sword energy spread throughout the fields.
"Tianlan Holy Land Gu Sheng, come back another day to take his head."
Tianlan Holy Land, Library Pavilion top layer.
Daoist Xiushan The jade slip in his hand suddenly exploded into powder.
The old man was stunned for a moment, and then burst into earth-shaking laughter. The spiritual power contained in his laughter made the whole Library Pavilion buzz.
"Good boy!"
Daoist Xiushan slapped the table, and the table turned into powder.
"Sneaking into Qinghe Holy Land's home to steal? What a great move!"
Hundreds of disciples have gathered outside the pavilion, all with expressions of disbelief on their faces.
They had just received a summons - Gu Sheng, who had been missing for half a year, actually made such a big noise in the hostile holy land.
"Master!"
A girl in red rushed in.
"The spies from the six holy places are all inquiring about the whereabouts of senior brother!"
Daoist Xiushan narrowed his eyes, and a golden light flew out of his sleeves.
The light turned into a star map in the sky, among which the stars representing Qinghe Holy Land were shaking violently.
"Pass the order."
There was a long-lost pride in the old man's voice.
"As a disciple of Tianlan, I will do my best to support the return of Gu Sheng!"
"Hahaha——" Daoist Xiushan suddenly burst out into a burst of laughter that was louder than before. The sound shook the sky, and even the disciples at the foot of the mountain could hear it clearly.
"Old man Yongan, old man Yongan!"
Daoist Xiushan laughed until tears flowed down his face.
"You worked so hard to train the next generation to take revenge, but in the end, you trained me, Tianlan Holy Land! I'm still half of my apprentice!"
It turns out that although Gu Sheng was born in Qinghe Holy Land, he got to know Daoist Xiushan during an experience and received his guidance. Later, by chance, they formed an indissoluble bond with Tianlan Holy Land.
"It's such a pleasure! It's such a pleasure!"
Daoist Xiushan clapped his hands and laughed.
"Qinghe Holy Land is probably going to go crazy now!"
After laughing, his face suddenly became serious.
"No! Gu Sheng humiliates Qinghe Holy Land like this, how can they just let it go?"
Thinking of this, Daoist Xiushan immediately stood up.
"Prepare the flying boat, I'm going to the Elder Hall!"
Tianlan Holy Land, Saint Heaven Peak Water Spirit Pavilion.
Gongsun Yue, dressed in white, pushed open the carved wooden door and walked out slowly. Her skin is like cream, and her eyebrows are like a painting, like a fairy walking out of a painting.
At this moment, she stared into the distance, her eyes passing through the Cloud Sea, as if she saw Qinghe Holy Land thousands of miles away.
"Brother Sheng"
She whispered softly, her voice full of longing.
"Yue'er."
A graceful young woman walked up to her and patted her gently.
"Are you thinking about that kid again?"
"Mother."
Gongsun Yue Cheeks are slightly red.
"I'm just worried about his safety. Qinghe Holy Land won't let him go easily."
Tianlan Holy Mother smiled slightly.
"Don't worry, that kid has a tough life. From when he was a loser to where he is now, when has he not narrowly escaped death?"
Mentioning the growth of Gu Sheng, Tianlan Holy Mother also had wonder in his eyes.
"I've looked through the history of Tianlan Holy Land, but I can't find another person who has grown as fast as him. Especially after returning from the Holy Road, he was completely transformed."
"Brother Sheng will definitely become stronger."
Gongsun Yue spoke firmly.
"It's natural."
Tianlan Holy Mother nodded.
"Not just us, the entire Tianlan Holy Land has high hopes for him. Even those who disliked him in the past have bowed their heads now."
Gongsun Yue said softly.
"That's because they understand that it is foolish to be an enemy of Brother Sheng."
"Not bad."
Tianlan Holy Mother looks into the distance.
"When a person is powerful enough, all hostility will turn into awe. If Tianlan Holy Land can produce a strong person who can dominate a region, everyone will benefit from it."
Just when the major holy places were still immersed in the shock brought by Gu Sheng, sudden changes occurred.
Over White Tiger Holy Land, the originally clear sky suddenly darkened.
Dark clouds rolled in like ink, covering the entire holy land in the blink of an eye.
"What's going on?"
The disciple on duty looked up at the sky, feeling inexplicably uneasy.
The oppressive atmosphere filled the air, making people breathless.
"Boom——"
A loud noise came from the depths of the Holy Land, followed by a panic.
"Oops! Seventh Elder went crazy and exploded to death!"
The news was like thunder, shocking everyone. Seventh Elder was a real elder-level expert, how could he suddenly die suddenly?
Before everyone could recover from the shock, bad news came from Vast Holy Land - two strong men whose strength was close to that of the elders died suddenly and mysteriously.
Dragon Refining Holy Land, Tianxian Holy Land, Zixia Holy Land, Qinghe Holy Land. One after another, holy places were shrouded in dark clouds, and news of the sudden death of strong men continued to spread.
Panic spread like a plague. Even strong men at the elder level died suddenly one after another, which made everyone feel extremely uneasy.
"What kind of power is this?"
"Why does it give people a feeling of heaven?"
"Is it God's revenge on us?"
What's even more chilling is that among Seven Great Holy Lands, only Tianlan Holy Land is safe and sound, with clear skies.
"It's so weird."
"Could it be related to Tianlan Holy Land?"
The Holy Lords of the six Holy Lands used all their strength to investigate the matter.
They didn't want to believe that this was Tianlan Holy Land's doing - if that was the case, then this method of allowing elder-level experts to die suddenly one after another would be too outrageous.
As the investigation deepened, the dark clouds hanging over the six holy lands became thicker and thicker, as if a demonic mountain was pressing overhead.
"Rumble--"
The deafening thunder continued, and the overflowing breath of heaven contained terrifying power, and even the Holy Lord felt panicked.
"Contamination will bring devastating disasters."
Qinghe Holy Lord looked solemn.
"Could this be. Heavenly Dao Curse?"
Tianlan Holy Lord was on his way back to the Holy Land. He frowned after hearing about the changes in the Six Holy Lands.
"Heavenly Dao Curse."
He muttered to himself, suddenly thought of something, and his expression suddenly changed.
"Is it Gu Sheng?"
He immediately increased his speed and turned into a stream of light and flew towards Tianlan Holy Land.
If it is really related to Gu Sheng, then the disaster sweeping the six holy places may have just begun.
Dark clouds were like ink, rolling towards the sky of the six holy places, as if an invisible giant hand was about to crush the entire Cultivation World.
Tianlan Holy Lord Gongsun Wuji Standing on the top of the temple, his purple and gold robes rustled, his eyes penetrated thousands of miles of clouds, looking at the holy places shrouded in darkness.
"Could it be."
His long fingers trembled slightly and his knuckles turned white.
"Is Heavenly Dao Curse coming?"
Behind him, First Elder stood bowed, his voice hoarse.
"Holy Lord, I just received the news that Xuanming Holy Land another elder died suddenly in seclusion. The death situation was exactly the same as the previous ones - bleeding from all the orifices, and his soul was destroyed."
Gongsun Wuji Close your eyes and think of that rainy night three years ago.
At that time, Gu Sheng was kneeling in the center of the temple, covered in blood but with blazing eyes, warning Heavenly Dao Curse at the top of his lungs.
"Absurd!"
At that time, he smashed the jade case with one palm.
"A mere Earth Palace stage dares to speak nonsense about the way of heaven? From today on, you will be deposed as the Holy Son!"
Memories come flooding back.
He remembered Gu Sheng's terrifyingly calm eyes when Seven Great Holy Lands and Saintess jointly broke off their engagement.
I remember the way my daughter Gongsun Yue was hiding behind the curtain and sobbing; I even remember the fleeting bloody lightning in the sky when I expelled Gu Sheng from the Holy Land.
"Report——"
A disciple rushed in hastily.
"Urgent news came from Tianxian Holy Land. The entire mountain on their third peak collapsed, and the three elders were buried alive!"
Gongsun Wuji opened his eyes suddenly, the golden light in his pupils soared.
He suddenly remembered the decision he made six months ago - tacitly allowing his daughter to sign Heavenly Dao Marriage Contract with Gu Sheng.
At that time, Seven Great Holy Lands was laughing at Tianlan Holy Land's absurdity, but now...
"Holy Master, since the eldest lady signed the marriage contract with Gu Sheng, nothing unusual has happened to me, Tianlan Holy Land."
First Elder said in a low voice.
"Even the Virgin Mary's stubborn illness."
"Shut up!"
Gongsun Wuji shouted fiercely, but couldn't hide the wavering in his voice.
He looked at the Bai Yu small building behind the temple - Gongsun Yue's boudoir.
Ever since she got engaged to Gu Sheng, her daughter has been staying at home all day long, but she has never suffered from inner demons again.
Boom——
The thunder in the distance is like the ridicule of heaven.
Gongsun Wuji suddenly felt a chill. The aura of the avenue contained in the dark clouds was clearly coming towards the six holy places.
But Tianlan Holy Land was strangely calm.
