Chapter 457 Tiger is in trouble
Meanwhile, after leaving the trading company, Gu Jiancheng and Xue Qiangwei went straight to the inn, intending to take Xue Hu away from Lin Yuan City.
This trip to Lin Yuan City went extremely smoothly.
Therefore, there is no need for them to stay any longer.
Gu Jiancheng also planned to go to the secret realm with the young shopkeeper after resolving the magic array problem.
But when they returned to the inn, they found that Xue Hu was nowhere to be found in the room!
"not good!"
"He must have gone out to play!"
"I knew I shouldn't have kept him here!"
Upon seeing this, Xue Qingwei's expression immediately changed.
"It's alright, let's go find it now."
Gu Jiancheng smiled, and then left the inn with Xue Qiangwei.
But as soon as they came out, they saw the little black dog run in from outside.
"Little Black!?"
But at this moment, Xue Qiangwei's heart sank upon seeing this.
Xiao Hei had always been following Xue Hu, so there was no reason for him to come back on his own.
"Wang Wang Wang!"
But at this moment, the little black dog kept barking, its voice very urgent!
Gu Jiancheng also sensed something was off from the voice.
Could it be that something unexpected happened to Xue Hu?
Soon, after barking a few times, the little black dog suddenly turned around and headed towards the outside of the city.
"Tiger might really be in trouble, keep up."
Gu Jiancheng felt a chill run down his spine, and he and Xue Qiangwei quickly chased after them.
Xiao Hei was also fast, and soon rushed out of Lin Yuan City. At this time, Gu Jiancheng also spread his divine sense and quickly discovered Xue Hu's aura.
He then swept up Xue Qiangwei and Xiao Hei and vanished from the spot in an instant.
When he reappeared, the two were already in a valley fifty miles away from Lin Yuan City.
The valley looked unremarkable, but Gu Jiancheng's divine eyes revealed that a magic array barrier was hidden there.
It concealed everything within it.
Xue Hu's aura was hidden within it. Gu Jiancheng snorted coldly, then directly raised his hand to tear open the magic array barrier and descended into the valley.
But the moment they arrived, they smelled an extremely strong stench of blood!
At this moment, what came into their view was not dozens of cultivators bound to stone pillars!
Among them was Xue Hu!
However, Xue Hu was already covered in wounds. In such a short time, he had been injured like this!
Moreover, strange totems seemed to be flashing on the stone pillars behind them, and blood was constantly flowing from their bodies.
"younger brother!"
Xue Qiangwei was shocked and immediately tried to rush in to save the person.
"who!"
At that moment, her voice immediately attracted the auras of many powerful figures in the valley.
In an instant, more than a dozen Earth Immortal Realm experts surrounded the two of them.
"Heh, two more ignorant Immortal cultivators?"
"Alright, we're just missing two blood offerings!"
"Tie them up too!"
However, upon seeing this, the cultivators suddenly burst into wild laughter, and then raised their hands to unleash various supernatural powers to suppress the two of them.
They were just two young cultivators at the Immortal Realm; these powerful figures didn't take Gu Jiancheng seriously at all.
"Humph!"
But Gu Jiancheng's expression was extremely cold at this moment, and he immediately summoned the ancient banner.
In an instant, the blood-red banner swelled in the wind, instantly drawing away the souls of more than a dozen cultivators.
The battle was over in a single breath.
The Pangu Banner has now reached the Earth Immortal level thanks to the previous soul nourishment.
Ordinary immortals couldn't even last a single breath.
As the corpses of the dozen or so Earth Immortal cultivators fell to the ground, Gu Jiancheng quickly descended in front of Xue Hu and broke the chains and restrictions on his body.
"Tiger, what happened?"
Xue Qiangwei quickly asked.
"Sister, I... I don't know what happened. I was just wandering around outside when someone suddenly asked me if this was my first time in Linyuan City. I said yes, and they forcibly brought me here!"
"Moreover, they also extracted my immortal roots!"
Xue Hu said with grief and indignation.
"What did you say?!"
Upon hearing this, Xue Qiangwei's expression changed drastically. She immediately raised her hand and lifted his clothes, only to find that they were covered in blood, his dantian was completely shattered, and his immortal root was gone!
Without his immortal roots, Xue Hu is doomed to die!
"What exactly do these people want to do?!"
Xue Qiangwei's eyes were bloodshot.
They had never provoked anyone, so why was the other party so ruthless?!
"They've used evil magic!"
Gu Jiancheng had already inspected the surrounding stone pillars. All the magic arrays were similar. Then he went to the depths of the valley and into a cave hidden in the mountain wall.
Gu Jiancheng saw many skeletons.
And there is an altar inside.
At this moment, blood energy condensed on the altar, and a celestial root continuously shone with brilliant light.
Although it hasn't reached the level of Golden Immortal Root yet, it's at least a mid-grade Heaven Rank.
Someone set up this magic array to forcibly plunder immortal roots and then fuse them, using this evil magic array to transform them into immortal roots of higher quality!
That's a really ruthless tactic.
"Young Master, what exactly happened?" At this moment, Xue Qiangwei also came in carrying Huzi. "I just checked, everyone else is dead!"
"It's nothing, don't worry, I won't let anything happen to Hu Zi!" Gu Jiancheng smiled, then directly broke the altar formation, put away the immortal root, and then used the "Sexual Destiny" secret technique to leave the valley with the two of them.
Ten breaths after the three disappeared, an old man in black robes descended into the valley.
This person possesses profound cultivation, perhaps even reaching the realm of a Celestial Immortal!
However, when he rushed into the cave and saw the destroyed altar formation and the vanished immortal root, he roared and the entire valley collapsed instantly!
"I don't care who you are, you're going to die!"
Immediately, he rushed out of the valley, which had been reduced to ruins.
But by this time, Gu Jiancheng and his two companions had already fled.
How astonishing is the speed of the Xingzi Secret?
Even a celestial being couldn't catch up; a dozen breaths would be enough for him to escape and ascend to heaven. Furthermore, the Pangu Banner completely isolated everyone's aura.
No one could find them.
"Breathe! It doesn't matter if you lose your spiritual root, use this!"
At this moment, on the sword light, Gu Jiancheng directly incorporated the immortal root into Xue Hu's body, and then injected yin and yang energy.
"Hang in there, it might hurt a little!"
"Okay!" Xue Hu nodded, but the next moment, the excruciating pain still made him scream.
He finally stopped wailing after a full half-cup of tea's time.
Xue Hu was panting heavily; the wound on his dantian had already healed.
"Brother Gu, I... I now possess a Heavenly Rank Immortal Root?"
Xue Hu also noticed the changes in his body at this time. Not only had his dantian been repaired, but even his spiritual root had changed.
"That's right, you could say this is your good fortune."
Gu Jiancheng smiled and said, "But you still need to heal your injuries after you go back."
"Stop cultivating for now."
"Young Master Gu, what kind of evil magic is this that is so powerful?" Xue Qiangwei breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that Xue Hu was alright, and asked.
