Chapter 500: The First Lord Arrives!
"Besides them, we don't seem to have any other enemies, do we?"
Gu Jiancheng sneered, his hands behind his back.
“But now, the surroundings seem very peaceful.” At this moment, Ran Hongfu and the others also came out of the room.
After hearing what Gu Jiancheng said, they couldn't help but frown.
At least outside of their search, they didn't sense anything unusual about the place.
"It was our oversight; we have now entered the formation."
"Hehe, among the four sects, only Immortal Sword Mountain can set up such a formation so quietly!"
"Lord of Immortal Sword Mountain, what virtue or ability do my Hundred Flowers Valley possess that makes you worthy of using the Thousand Swords Diagram!?"
The Valley Master of Hundred Flowers looked around at the void and smiled coldly.
"Have we already entered the magic circle?"
Everyone was greatly surprised upon hearing this.
"The Thousand Swords Diagram is the most treasured artifact of Immortal Sword Mountain, a mid-grade Golden Immortal magic weapon with the effect of covering the heavens and earth. If it is really this thing, it will indeed be difficult for us to detect it."
At this moment, Bai Yiyun also spoke in a deep voice.
Immortal Sword Mountain possesses an extremely profound heritage, and the Thousand Swords Diagram is the number one magic weapon among the four sects.
Using this image is enough to show the murderous intent of Immortal Sword Mountain!
"Hehe, Valley Master of Hundred Flowers, now that you have recognized my sect's Thousand Swords Diagram, you should understand my determination in coming here!"
Before the Valley Master of Hundred Flowers could finish speaking, the figures of the Lord of Immortal Sword Mountain and many elders of Immortal Sword Mountain appeared on the mountain in front of them.
The Lord of Immortal Sword Mountain was filled with murderous intent. His gaze was fixed on Gu Jiancheng, and he said coldly, "Actually, this sect did not intend to break ties with your Hundred Flowers Valley, but today, you must hand this person over to me!"
He pointed at Gu Jiancheng.
Gu Jiancheng caused his Immortal Sword Mountain to suffer a great humiliation, and even now, he has severely injured all the top talents in his sect, causing them to lose the opportunity to enter the secret realm!
All of this is because of Gu Jiancheng.
Today he will take Gu Jiancheng away and make him suffer a fate worse than death to vent his hatred!
When the Lord of Immortal Sword Mountain finished speaking, the cultivators of Hundred Flowers Valley all changed their expressions slightly.
These cultivators from Immortal Sword Mountain actually came only for Gu Jiancheng!?
"Haha, how ridiculous!"
"Are you threatening me?"
The Valley Master of Hundred Flowers scoffed.
"if not?"
"I also advise you to consider the future of Hundred Flowers Valley: will you hand this person over to me directly, or will you implicate your entire sect because of this person!"
"I think you, Master of Hundred Flowers Valley, know very well which is more important!"
The Lord of Immortal Sword Mountain said coldly.
Which is more important?
"Although my Hundred Flowers Valley is not the most profound of the four sects, it is by no means a soft persimmon for you to slaughter!"
"I will never hand over Gu Jiancheng, so what can you do about it!?"
"You don't actually think you can trap me with just this Thousand Swords Diagram, do you?"
The Valley Master of Hundred Flowers scoffed coldly, then raised her delicate hand, and a lotus lantern slowly bloomed from her palm!
The lotus lantern was entirely green, and the moment it bloomed, the oppressive aura of a Golden Immortal-level treasure instantly enveloped the cloud boat.
"The Azure Lotus Ancient Lamp, the most treasured artifact of Hundred Flowers Valley!?"
Sure enough, the Lord of Immortal Sword Mountain's expression changed drastically the moment he saw the lotus lantern appear.
Although the Azure Lotus Ancient Lamp is not as high-grade as the Thousand Swords Diagram, it is still a top-grade Golden Immortal Ancient Treasure of low quality.
With this treasure, even with the Thousand Swords Diagram, it would be impossible to suppress the cultivators of Hundred Flowers Valley in a short time.
Therefore, their plan has failed.
His decision to act this time was based on the intention of a swift and decisive victory.
"I never expected that you would bring out such a treasure when you participated in the Four Sects Competition!" the Lord of Immortal Sword Mountain said in a deep voice.
"Hehe, don't you also carry the Thousand Swords Diagram with you at all times?"
The Valley Master of Hundred Flowers raised an eyebrow.
In fact, before leaving Hundred Flowers Valley, she had already thought that if Gu Jiancheng became a dark horse, he would definitely be targeted. Therefore, taking the Azure Lotus Ancient Lamp with her would at least give her the ability to protect herself.
Now, isn't this most precious treasure of the sect coming in handy?
In short, Gu Jiancheng has won unprecedented honor for Hundred Flowers Valley. He is a promising successor who can help Hundred Flowers Valley rise to prominence and even protect it in the future. She will never give up on him.
"There's no point in saying more."
"Valley Master of Hundred Flowers, even if you bring the Azure Lotus Ancient Lamp today, you can forget about protecting Gu Jiancheng!"
"Sect Master Lei Ming, it's time for you to show yourself!"
But the Lord of Immortal Sword Mountain sneered. Then, under the shocked gazes of the Valley Master of Hundred Flowers and the others, more than a dozen figures suddenly appeared on the other side of the mountain where the cultivators of Immortal Sword Mountain were gathered.
The leader of them was none other than the Thunder Sect Master, whose face was ashen.
Like the Lord of Immortal Sword Mountain, this Thunder Sect Master wished he could grind Gu Jiancheng to dust!
Therefore, the two of them had already agreed that they would definitely get rid of Gu Jiancheng today.
"Master of Hundred Flowers Valley, how have you been?"
The Thunder Sect Master snorted coldly, and then, with a wave of his hand, summoned an ancient cauldron covered with thunder patterns.
"What a coincidence! Today, I also brought the Thunderclap Cauldron, the supreme treasure of the Thunderclap Sect!"
"So, under the influence of these two supreme treasures, can your Azure Lotus Ancient Lamp withstand them for even half an hour?"
In an instant, the Valley Master of Hundred Flowers' expression turned extremely gloomy.
With the Thousand Swords Diagram and the Thunder Kui Cauldron, even with the Azure Lotus Ancient Lamp in hand, she definitely wouldn't last long.
"Master of Hundred Flowers Valley, your time is running out. Hand over Gu Jiancheng, and we will let you leave immediately."
"But if you don't hand over the person, in order to silence you, you will all have to be buried with Gu Jiancheng today!"
The Lord of Immortal Sword Mountain grinned maliciously, his hands behind his back. Today, he was determined to win!
At this moment, many of the cultivators in Hundred Flowers Valley began to panic.
Although Gu Jiancheng had previously demonstrated unparalleled potential, and once he advanced to the Golden Immortal realm, he could make Hundred Flowers Valley the leader of the four sects, the thought of them being forced to die for Gu Jiancheng made them waver.
After all, nothing is more important than one's own life!
Throughout the entire process, Gu Jiancheng remained indifferent, observing everything without uttering a single word.
With both Immortal Sword Mountain and Thunder Sect bringing their most precious treasures, the other side is definitely not going to let this go easily.
To escape death, the only options are to fight to the death, or...
Gu Jiancheng's expression suddenly changed slightly, and then he suddenly sneered: "Gentlemen, aren't you afraid that Tiancui Tower will find out what you've done?!"
"Tiancui Tower?"
The lords of Immortal Sword Mountain and Thunder Sect couldn't help but change their expressions slightly upon hearing this.
"Heh, so what if Tiancui Tower finds out? You're not one of their people!"
"That's right, stop trying to use someone else's name to justify your actions. What does Tiancui Tower have to do with you?"
The Thunder Sect Master also roared in anger.
They can't afford to offend Tiancui Tower, but Gu Jiancheng also has no connection with Tiancui Tower!
"Is it?"
"Then you might as well give it a try!"
Gu Jiancheng smiled and then stepped forward.
"Sword Inheritance!"
Upon seeing this, the Valley Master of Hundred Flowers quickly spoke up. She was still trying to find a solution, and if Gu Jiancheng went out now, he would surely die!
"It doesn't matter."
Gu Jiancheng simply turned around and smiled before leaving the cloud boat in Hundred Flowers Valley.
"Heh, you do have some guts."
"In that case, we will not make things difficult for Hundred Flowers Valley. Come with me!"
The Lord of Immortal Sword Mountain grinned maliciously, then raised his hand and grabbed at Gu Jiancheng.
But to the bewilderment of Sect Master Lei Ming and the others, Gu Jiancheng showed absolutely no reaction at this moment.
Not only did he not dodge, he also didn't unleash even the slightest bit of his aura.
They looked completely helpless and ready to surrender.
This is completely unlike his performance in the ring.
For this reason, Sect Master Lei Ming even began to be wary, as he did not believe that Gu Jiancheng would give up so easily.
"Hmph, who says it has nothing to do with my Tiancui Tower!?"
But at that very moment, a cold voice suddenly rang out from the sky.
Immediately afterwards, a sword aura suddenly cleaved through the magic array space of the Thousand Swords Diagram, heading straight for the large hand of the Lord of Immortal Sword Mountain.
puff!
Almost instantly, the Lord of Immortal Sword Mountain's large hand was easily cleaved and disintegrated, like tofu.
"who!"
The master of Immortal Sword Mountain was also suddenly shocked.
This sword actually shattered his magical artifact and destroyed his large hand!
At that moment, a figure suddenly emerged from the sword marks in the sky.
She wore a long golden dress, surrounded by dazzling light, her figure graceful, and her black hair cascading down like a waterfall.
However, at this moment, the woman's cold gaze looked down at the Lord of Immortal Sword Mountain and the others, exuding the aura of a superior.
"I?"
"The First Master of Tiancui Tower!"
"I'll protect him today!"
