The Demon Cultivator of the Sword

Chapter 131 Retreat
"Yes, Sect Master."

In less than a day, tens of thousands of people in the Feitian Demon Sect all knew the news that Gu Yuan took the first place on the Hidden Dragon List and Murong Qingcheng took the fifth place on the Hidden Dragon List. They all opened their mouths wide in disbelief.

"I didn't believe it at the time, but the master's words are always true, so they must be true."

"Yes, I asked Senior Brother Ding who went to participate in the Hidden Dragon Ranking competition. Although he was not ranked in the Hidden Dragon Ranking, he saw Senior Brother defeat Yan Chihuo and Sikong Sheng with his own eyes, and they were both instant kills. Senior Brother not only refined half-step true essence, but also raised his sword intent to 70% of the peak. No, it is already 80% now. It was only in the middle of the competition that a ninth-grade sect disciple appeared who had raised his sword intent to 70% and practiced a special technique to refine true essence and temporarily reached the Star Extreme Realm. Otherwise, no one would be a match for Senior Brother. Even if that person used true essence, he was eventually defeated by Senior Brother and became the second."

"Doesn't that mean that Senior Brother is not only the number one genius in Nanzhuo Domain, but also the leader of the younger generation in Nanzhuo Domain? Haha, the Hidden Dragon Ranking is about luck, and since Senior Brother is number one, we can also get a share of the honor."

"That's right. As long as you work hard in the future, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. My cousin Zhiqi wanted to join the Wuqing Sect to learn swordsmanship. Now that we have our senior brother, the best swordsman of the younger generation in Nanzhuo Domain, why would he still go to the Wuqing Sect?"

"That's right, I also want to persuade my people to join the Feitian Demon Sect."

During this day, I don’t know how many people asked for leave to go home, which made the elders in charge very busy. Of course, they were busy and happy.

After all, those who can join a sixth-grade sect are all geniuses, and no sect would be dissatisfied with having too many geniuses.

In the Spiritual Hall, Lin Yang, who had just completed his mission, also learned the news. Many female disciples surrounded him to inquire about Gu Yuan because they had a good relationship with him. This made him enjoy the attention of the crowd, but he also smiled bitterly in his heart.

What kind of monster is this?

He vaguely remembered that Gu Yuan was only thirteen years old at that time, with a very immature face. The first time he really came into contact with him was during the trial of outer disciples at the mass grave. He thought that the other party, who was at the ninth level of the Qi training realm, could not possibly be his opponent, but he, who was at the tenth level of the Qi training realm, was killed in seconds with just one sword.

As time passed, the naive boy was no longer there, and he gradually grew into a young man, and his status doubled, becoming the number one genius, the number one swordsman, and the number one leader in Nanzhuo Domain.

It turns out that four or five years have passed so quickly.

When Gu Yuan, Murong Qingcheng, Mo Yan and others came to the foundation of Feitian Demon Sect under the leadership of Mo Tianxing, the dragon vein energy that had long been hidden in their blood suddenly burst out, as if a divine dragon had drilled into the ground. After about ten breaths, the Feitian Demon Sect was filled with wind and clouds within a thousand miles. The sound of dragon roars could be faintly heard in the void and underground, stronger than ever before. This was a sign that the dragon vein energy was extremely strong.

After a while, the dragon vein energy returned to the bodies of the nine people, and Gu Yuan only felt that the dragon vein energy in his body was increasing rather than decreasing.

After introducing the dragon vein energy, Mo Tianxing took him to a mountain near Tianmo Peak, Tongtian Peak, to meet several supreme elders of Feitian Demon Sect as usual.

There are five supreme elders in the Feitian Demon Sect.

The oldest one is over two hundred years old, and his cultivation has reached the late stage of Linghai Realm. Although he is not yet a grandmaster of Linghai Realm, he is also a leader among the four levels of Linghai Realm, namely, spiritualist level, real person level, grandmaster level, and half-step king. He is the former leader of Feitian Demon Sect, and also the undisputed number one master of Feitian Demon Sect except for the sect leader Mo Tianxing.

The other four also have the cultivation level of the middle stage of the Spirit Sea Realm. According to Mo Tianxing's introduction, except for the Grand Elder, the other four also have the strength of a real person. Including the sect master himself, the Feitian Demon Sect has a total of six real person-level masters.

It is precisely because of the presence of the great elders that the Feitian Demon Sect can firmly maintain its position as one of the seven sixth-grade sects in Nanzhuo Domain, and compete with the sixth-grade sects such as Xuankong Mountain and Huoling Palace. Even the weaker masters of the Spiritual Sea Realm dare not provoke them easily. The next day, Gu Yuan said hello to his father and entered into seclusion again.

This retreat will last for a long time.

Not only did he want to refine his true essence, he also planned to refine all of the remaining Heavenly Demon Flowers.

The Heavenly Demon Flower has a total of ten petals. He gave one to his parents and Murong Qingcheng, and then he refined three of them, leaving four petals and rhizomes.

Gu Yuan didn't hesitate at all. He gathered his true energy, extracted the medicinal power from the Heavenly Demon Flower, condensed it into a pill, and swallowed it into his mouth.

Then he closed his eyes and practiced the Xuanyin Method with all his strength.

Xuanyin Dafa is the top-level earth-level martial art in the Xuanyin Sword Art. After reaching the tenth level, the combat power will be greatly increased with each level increase. The gap between the twelfth and thirteenth levels is particularly obvious.

The three Shura Holy Fires in the body can be increased to six, fourteenth level and nine. And with each level increase, the power of the Xuanyin Demon Fire and Shura Holy Fire will double.

As for the fifteenth level, Gu Yuan did not dare to think about it for the time being. The fifteenth level could completely transform the Xuanyin Devil Fire into the Shura Holy Fire, and its power was absolutely terrifying.

However, to reach this level, it is not enough to rely on the Heavenly Demon Flower alone. You also need to rely on your own understanding and spend a huge amount of time to complete the process of flame transformation.

Time passes like water.

Ever since the end of the Hidden Dragon Ranking competition, the once turbulent Nanzhuo Region has suddenly become quiet. The top ten on the previous Hidden Dragon Ranking have basically entered a long period of seclusion, starting to prepare for a breakthrough to the Star Realm.

Especially Yan Chihuo, Li Daoxuan, Bing Ling and others, they know that time waits for no one, Gu Yuan may enter the Star Realm at any time, if they don't want to be left far behind, they must work harder than before.

A year later, a strong aura of fire permeated the secret training room where Gu Yuan was practicing. The fire penetrated the ceiling of the secret room and shot into the sky, attracting the attention of the entire Feitian Demon Sect.

"The secret training room was actually penetrated by the aura."

The Grand Elder of the Feitian Demon Sect was very shocked. One should know that the underground training chamber of the Feitian Demon Sect is extremely solid. Even if an ordinary inner sect elder of the late Xingji Realm tried his best, it would be difficult to break it. But Gu Yuan actually destroyed it with just the aura leaked from his technique. It was really amazing.

Could it be that he already has the strength of a top-level Star Realm expert?
Mo Tianxing smiled, "His Xuanyin Dafa state of mind has been raised to the fourteenth level. The Xuanyin Devil Fire derived from it can easily penetrate the secret training room."

"The fourteenth level!" Upon hearing this, the Great Elder was horrified. For an ordinary person to be able to improve the top-level earth-level skills to the eighth or ninth level in two and a half years, that would already be a genius among geniuses.
