Except Kong Jue and Huangfu Wuqin.

The news about Shangguan Yuzhou also reached the Cangwu Sect during the time when Kong Ju was in seclusion.

The ruthless man Shangguan Yuzhou of Huayu Sword rushed to Cuijin Gate day and night the day after he broke through the eighth level of Yanglun.

He blocked the gate of the sect and cursed Yuan Xiao.

This forced the Dragon King Yuan Xiao to fight.

The first battle between the two men lasted for a day and a night at the gate of Cuijinmen Mountain, but there was no clear winner, and both retreated with injuries.

Three days later, Shangguan Yuzhou came again and they fought for another half a day.

Although Shangguan Yuzhou's Huayu Sword is powerful, Yuan Xiao's dragon-like evil spirit is not weak either. In the past two years, he has been competing with the geniuses on the Hidden Dragon List, and his cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds.

Moreover, he gained physical strength during the battle, and his real strength is probably no less than Han Honghua.

It is still difficult for Shangguan Yuzhou to defeat Yuan Xiao.

Similarly, Shangguan Yuzhou's progress in the Huayu sword intent was also terrifying. Even Dongxian had to praise his understanding of the way of the sword.

The overflowing sword intent was enough to cause rain in some areas.

The two of them fought like this for a whole month.

Shangguan Yuzhou built a straw hut outside the Cuijin Gate and lived there, as if he would not leave until he defeated Yuan Xiao.

The Cuijin Sect would naturally not allow any of their disciples to block their door so arrogantly.

They also sent monks who had passed the Shenglun realm to drive them away.

However, he was stopped by He Xijin, the head of the Law Enforcement Hall.

After all, Miao Jiang doesn’t have much time left, and the top leaders of the Cangwu faction are afraid that he will do something desperate.

Dongxian specifically instructed He Xijin to go there in person.

They couldn't win by fighting, and they couldn't drive them away, which really disgusted the Cuijinmen side.

Instead, they avenged the attack on their disciples of Cuijin Sect who had been bullying the outer sect of Cangwu Sect.

On the other side, on the night when Huangfu Wuqin returned to the inner gate.

In the Qingcang Palace, Huangfu Wuqin sat on the throne of the leader, which symbolized the highest power of the Cangwu Sect, with a bunch of spiritual fruits similar to grapes in his little mouth, eating with gusto.

Instead, Huangfu Ying, the head of the sect, was pushed to the side of the table where the spiritual fruits were placed. He held the jade slip that Han Dong'er had given to Huangfu Wuqin in his hand, and his consciousness sank into it.

As he read deeper, Huangfu Ying's brows furrowed more deeply.

The solemn look was so serious that even Huangfu Wuqin, who was eating spiritual fruit, couldn't help but glance sideways with a hint of doubt in her eyes. She hadn't seen this expression on her father for a long time.

Huangfu Ying could obviously finish reading the text recorded in the jade slip very quickly, but he still did not put it down.

He was obviously pondering the information in the jade slip.

Huangfu Wuqin looked at his father for a long while, and seeing that he was silent, he asked softly, "Is it serious?"

Huangfu Ying heard his daughter's voice and shifted his attention away from the jade slip. He replied calmly with two words: "No problem!"

"You are becoming more and more cunning. You even deceived your daughter!" Huangfu Wuqin shook his head, obviously not believing Huangfu Ying's lies. He pouted his pretty nose, and his words were full of complaints about his father.

Huangfu Ying smiled but did not respond. Instead, he asked, "Where is Han Dong'er now?"

"I don't know." Huangfu Wuqin spread her hands. She did not follow Han Dong'er when she left.

However, after she responded to Huangfu Ying's words, her eyes suddenly narrowed and she realized something was wrong.

"How do you know her name is Han Dong'er?"

Huangfu Ying held the jade slip in his hand and answered without hesitation: "I am an old acquaintance of her father. I watched her being born, so I naturally know."

"No wonder she didn't let me kill her at the Frost Moon Altar." Huangfu Wuqin finally came to her senses, and the resentment on her pretty face became even stronger.

"You obviously didn't intend for me to kill her from the beginning."

Huangfu Ying had an ambiguous expression, neither admitting nor denying.

After taking a breath, he said rather melancholy: "Her talent and style of doing things are really like her father."

"If it really comes to the point of no return, I will get rid of her."

"Before I can't control her anymore."

"Do you want me to bring Han Dong'er back?" Huangfu Wuqin rolled his eyes and gave a pertinent suggestion.

"Forget it." Huangfu Ying shook his head and rejected his daughter's proposal.

After saying this, Huangfu Ying took the jade slip and slowly walked out of Qingcang Palace. He looked up at the moonlight outside, with an unprecedented solemnity on his handsome face.

Thinking of this, Huangfu Ying added silently in his heart.

"Are you dead or not?"

…

Half a month later, Lingquan Cave.

The spring water gurgles.

Kong Ju, who had been in seclusion for more than half a month, ended his last day of practice.

After half a month of struggle, the wounds on his body that were burned by Lingxi's fire power were finally completely healed.

Hard scabs formed on the burned parts, and many of the blood scabs fell off, revealing delicate skin.

Thanks to the Guyuan Pill, there were no ugly scars left.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Huh! Kong Ju exhaled a mouthful of icy cold air.

He opened his eyes which had been closed for half a month.

"Although the pursuit of Dingyue Sect is very dangerous."

"But thanks to those battles, the shackles of the Ninth Realm have been loosened by more than half. I think it will take less than two months for me to try to impact the Ninth Realm of Yanglun."

With his fists clenched slightly and feeling the surging spiritual power in his body, Kong Qi's eyes showed a hint of joy.

Ever since he got the opportunity of the Red Gold Pool, his cultivation speed has increased by more than half.

There are also silver fragments that help to increase the speed of cultivation.

The shackles of the ninth level, the most difficult level in Yanglun realm, don’t seem to be that difficult anymore.

What remains is some slow work and diligently accumulating spiritual power. When it reaches a certain level, you can then try to reach the ninth realm.

However, Kong Ju was not prepared to go into seclusion.

Cultivation is not a one-time thing, it must be done step by step.

None of the geniuses on the Hidden Dragon List were kept in seclusion.

Kong Ju stood up, stretched his waist, and muttered, "The Gu Yuan Dan is almost used up. I have to go to Baicaotang to buy some materials for refining."

"By the way, refine the Small Mirror-Broken Pill as well. With three portions of the Small Mirror-Broken Pill materials, you can at least make one furnace for me."

Guyuan Dan is a healing medicine that has significant healing effects and is not expensive, and is undoubtedly a must-have.

Kong Ju was injured many times in Xihuang Small Blessed Land. Thanks to the treatment of Guyuan Dan, he was able to recover quickly.

Therefore, the shortage of Guyuan Dan makes it very necessary to replenish it.

Anyway, Kong Ju is an alchemist himself, so he only needs to buy the materials and make the alchemy.

If it were someone else, the Guyuan Pill would cost at least two hundred spirit crystals, and they would be heartbroken after taking a few of them.

In addition, Kong Ju is about to break through.

It is also necessary to put Xiao Po Jing Dan on the itinerary.

"If the breakthrough is not going smoothly, take the small breakthrough pill and force a breakthrough to the ninth realm."

“If everything goes well, the Small Realm Breakthrough Pill can be taken after breaking through the Ninth Realm. With the help of the drug, you can directly jump to the peak of the Ninth Realm.”

Therefore, regardless of whether the breakthrough is successful or not, the refining of the Small Broken Mirror Pill must be arranged.

Of course, Kong Ju did not plan to refine it immediately.

He has been in seclusion for half a month. Since he came back to Cangwu Sect, he has not visited his friends properly.

Feng An and Zhou Tingyu.

"Go have a drink with Senior Brother Feng and see if there's any new information. Invite Junior Sister Zhou as well. I don't know if she's practicing well."

Kong Jue walked towards the cave entrance, shaking his head.

Before leaving, he deliberately looked back at the skylark eggs soaked in the spiritual spring.

There is no sign of hatching.

"Just soak in it. It's been soaking for thousands of years." Kong Ju muttered and walked out of the cave without looking back.
