Chapter 134 Grandmaster's Challenge
"I can't believe it, the two Snow Ridge Immortals are actually ghosts. Who would have thought that the ghosts are not one but two, and they're women!"

Gu Chudong was filled with emotion and said, "But, brother, actually, looking back, there are clues. The Snow Ridge Twin Immortals have profound internal energy, but the injuries they suffered in Kongming Temple have never healed, and they always smell of blood. It seems that they do this on purpose to cover up the bloody smell produced by their secret daily visits here to refine the Heart Robbery Gu."

Gu Mo nodded slightly and said, "However, if I hadn't noticed traces of Nether Epiphyllum here, I really wouldn't have thought about it that way."

In fact, Gu Mo had never suspected that the ghost was among them at first, let alone the Snow Ridge Twin Immortals.

It was not until Gu Chudong discovered traces of the Netherworld Epiphyllum through the flower stalk given by Yan Sanniang that Gu Mo became alert.

He never really believed in coincidences.

He needed the Netherworld Epiphyllum, and then it just happened to appear. Then he happened to meet his enemy in this place. The fact that the Netherworld Epiphyllum appeared at this moment meant that the Netherworld Epiphyllum was not ownerless.

Therefore, he was certain that there was someone behind the appearance of the Netherworld Epiphyllum, and when Ren Tianqi appeared, he even suspected that it was a setup against him.

When the thunder fell from the sky, he used his icy energy combined with the rain from the sky to condense it into ice, blocking the lightning. However, due to his profound internal strength, he was not affected at all by the impact of the thunder.

But he chose to play along.

He pulled Gu Chudong and pretended to be seriously injured.

then,

The two Snow Ridge Immortals showed up on their own initiative.

"Brother, that Ren Tianqi is so unlucky. He thought he was in the same group with the evil spirits, but in the end, the evil spirits were probably plotting against him from the beginning to the end. When they were about to escape, they even took out his heart. I'm afraid he never thought that his companions would kill him until his death, right?" Gu Chudong said.

Gu Mo shook his head slightly and said, "He has no choice. If the ghost takes him away, he might still be able to survive. Maybe the ghost doesn't want to plot against him? But if he stays here, he will definitely die. There is no chance of survival."

"That's true..."

At this moment, a weak voice came from the ground: "Master Gu, Miss Gu, could you two... please stop chatting? I think I... can still save the situation..."

The one who spoke was the disheveled Sang Tugong.

Gu Mo hurried over, passed a stream of Qi to Sang Tugong, and said, "I'm sorry, Elder Sang... I forgot you were still alive!"

Sang Tugong: "..."

immediately,

Gu Chudong and Gu Mo quickly checked the others.

Those who were farther away were fine. Although most of them were seriously injured, most of them managed to survive. However, among the masters in this hall, only Sang Tugong and Taoist Qingyun survived. Master Jingxian, Sikong Xuan, Taoist Yuan, Situ Heng and others all died.

now,

Many martial artists in the town are rushing here.

Sang Tugong was saved by Gu Mo's innate energy and he quickly said, "Master Gu, go and open the Five Elements Altar. If you are not surprised, the Netherworld Epiphyllum you are looking for is inside.

According to what I've read in ancient books, the Heart Robbery Gu ultimately merges the Five Elements and the Gold Gu. There are only four natural treasures in the world that can help the Five Elements and the Gold Gu merge into one, and one of them is the Netherworld Epiphyllum."

Immediately,

Gu Mo immediately walked over and, following Sang Tugong's instructions, found the key points of the Five Elements Altar. Finally, he slapped the top copper lid weighing thousands of pounds away.

The interior structure of the altar is extremely wonderful, and the surrounding walls are engraved with strange runes and ancient patterns. Those runes shine mysteriously under the dim light, as if guarding this mysterious space.

In the center of the altar, a white transparent flower was placed in a palm-sized copper pot, swaying quietly. Its petals were as light as mist, as if they would drift away with the wind at any time.

This was the legendary, rootless, pathless, netherworld Epiphyllum. Its petals shimmered with a faint fluorescence, like the brightest stars in the night sky. They continually closed and opened, emanating wisps of mist, as if resonating with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. With each tremor, a faint fragrance wafted forth, bringing tranquility to the mind, yet seeming to peer through this tranquility into an endless, profound depth.

"quick!"

Sang Tugong shouted from the side: "Close the copper pot and don't let it run away."

Gu Mo immediately used the Six Meridians Divine Sword to cut off a piece of copper from the red copper altar, rushed over, pressed the Netherworld Epiphyllum into the copper jar, and then covered the mouth of the jar with the copper piece in his hand. He stroked it lightly, and the copper piece became as soft as a piece of paper, wrapping the mouth of the copper jar.

Sang Tugong explained, "Legend has it that this Netherworld Epiphyllum has no roots or stems, and it walks between life and death, back and forth between the realms of reality and illusion. Simply put, the Netherworld Flower is formed from corpse qi, resentful qi, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It may appear to be a flower, but in reality it's a ball of air that will float away if you're not careful."

……

Not long after Gu Mo collected the Netherworld Epiphyllum,

Martial artists from all over Cangshan Town arrived one after another and began to clean up the mess.

Gu Chudong still wanted to chop off someone's head, but was stopped by Gu Mo.

Now that Bu Er Villa has closed down and Yan Sanniang has gone wandering around, it would be a bit troublesome for them to hold the head. In addition, there is another important matter, which is the identity of the ghost's accomplice, which still needs to be verified through various official channels. After all, the identities of the Snow Ridge Twin Immortals are not ordinary, and it is quite troublesome to verify them.

However, Gu Mo naturally couldn't just ignore it.

So, Gu Mo handed it over directly to Lord Sang Tu and asked Canglan Sword Sect to help deal with it.

This matter was naturally a matter of duty for the Canglan Sword Sect. The Henchmen were renowned figures of evil in both Qingzhou and Yunzhou. This time, the Canglan Sword Sect was participating in the suppression, along with the Demonic Grandmaster Ren Tianqi. This was a golden opportunity to enhance their reputation, and the Canglan Sword Sect naturally wouldn't miss it.

Therefore, although it is a bit troublesome to help Gu Mo go through the official route, from the perspective of Canglan Sword Sect, they are still very happy to do so, especially since there is also the matter of Ren Tianqi involved.

The previous battle between good and evil in Yunzhou had a great impact on the Yunzhou martial arts world. Now that Ren Tianqi has been killed, the battle between good and evil can come to a perfect end.

After many martial artists arrived,

Gu Mo and Gu Chudong left quietly.

"Brother, if Ye Lingsu and Ye Wanyue had just run away, would you have been able to keep them?"

Gu Mo thought for a moment and said, "That's hard to say. The two of them are quite good at hiding. If they are determined to escape and hide in the town, it will be very difficult to find them. However, they will definitely not run away."

"why?"

"Because they were unwilling to give up," Gu Mo said, "Ye Lingsu and Ye Wanyue had considered me and Ren Tianqi as sacrifices from the very beginning. They wanted to create the unprecedented and unparalleled Heart Robbery Gu King. If they missed this opportunity, they might never be able to refine the Gu King they wanted in their lifetime. So, from the very beginning, they didn't even think about escaping. They just wanted to paralyze me and take the opportunity to kill me with the Five Elements Lightning Array. In that situation, as long as they killed me, no one would be able to stop them from refining the Gu King.

If things go as expected, there must be a real formation for refining the Gu King somewhere in this town. The Five Elements Lightning Formation here was prepared from the beginning just to paralyze Ren Tianqi and kill me. Once they succeed, they will immediately take the heart and leave this place. Whether they are exposed or not will no longer matter to them at that time."

……

The atmosphere in Cangshan Town was very gloomy and depressing.

Martial artists from all sides were also extremely angry.

After traveling a long distance to come here to look for the Netherworld Epiphyllum, they finally learned that all of this was fake and that there were many casualties, especially the disciples from the major sects, all of whom looked extremely sad. The casualties this time were not very tragic, but the key point was that those who died were important figures from various sects.

Gu Mo also felt helpless. Under the circumstances at that time, he couldn't help others.

That thunderbolt struck my head,
If Gu Mo had not used his icy energy to melt the ice to resist, even he would have suffered from the thunder. Moreover, the thunder came very suddenly, and he could only protect Gu Chudong. As for the others, they had to accept their fate.

At that time, apart from the two brothers and sisters, only Lord Sang Tu and Taoist Qingyun survived the crowd that entered the hall. However, among the martial artists in the courtyard outside the hall who had not yet rushed in, many were injured, but not many died.

But, overall, the scene was very tragic.

Gu Mo could already sense that Xueling Mountain Villa was about to follow in the footsteps of the Four Directions Sword Sect and would surely be surrounded and attacked by all the other factions. After all, the ghosts had committed numerous murders over the years and had many enemies, not to mention that this time they had offended many major factions, including the Shennong Gang, Qiushan Sword Field, Yanxing Sect, and Tongniu Sect.

Although the two immortals of Xueling were killed,
But Xueling Villa will certainly not escape liquidation.

However, these things have nothing to do with Gu Mo.

After resting for a day in Cangshan Town, he prepared to leave.

The purpose of his coming to Cangshan Town was to get the Netherworld Epiphyllum. Now that he had obtained the Netherworld Epiphyllum, he naturally had to leave quickly to find Qi Miaoxuan to treat his eyes.

However, before leaving, I still have to say hello to Sang Tugong.

……

"Hero Gu is going to Qingzhou City, right?"

In the room, Sang Tugong was lying on the bed wrapped in gauze, with only his head exposed.

Gu Chudong asked doubtfully, "Elder Sang, how did you know?"

Sang Tugong smiled and said, "This is no secret. Everyone in the martial arts world knows that Hero Gu lost his sight due to an accident, and he is looking for the Netherworld Epiphyllum. He must be looking for Qi Miaoxuan to treat his eyes. The Netherworld Epiphyllum is a rare treasure that Qi Miaoxuan specifically mentioned. And now Qi Miaoxuan is in Qingzhou City. Where else can Hero Gu go if not to Qingzhou City?"

Gu Mo asked, "Does Elder Sang know Qi Miaoxuan?"

Sang Tugong said: "There are very few people in the martial arts world who don't know Qi Miaoxuan. There are two great medical masters in the martial arts world of Qian Kingdom, Qi Miaoxuan, the Southern Medicine Saint, and Wei Wuwei, the Northern Medical God. One only treats people of the righteous path, and the other only treats people of the evil path.

However, Qi Miaoxuan has a strange temper and is difficult to get along with. The most important problem is that he might accept the reward but refuse to treat the patient, so, Master Gu, you must pay more attention to him.

Gu Mo nodded slightly.

He didn't know what method Yan Sanniang used to make Qi Miaoxuan agree to treat his eyes, but he believed that Yan Sanniang would not lie to him.

"It's about one or two thousand miles to Qingzhou City," said Lord Sang Tu. "You two are not from Qingzhou and are not familiar with the roads. You might get lost and lose your way. Who knows how much time you will have lost.

The key is that Qi Miaoxuan's whereabouts are erratic. Recently he has been a guest in Cangfeng Valley outside Qingzhou City. No one knows where he will go in a while, so we have to go there as soon as possible.

I'll send someone to the town to ask around. Many martial artists are currently in Cangshan Town. Now that the truth about the Netherworld Epiphyllum has been revealed, most of them will be leaving in the next day or two. Qingzhou City is about to have a big event, so there will definitely be a lot of people heading there."

"Then I'll trouble you, Elder Sang." Gu Mo bowed.

Sang Tugong waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Master Gu, please don't be so polite. Actually, I should be the one to thank you. If it weren't for Master Gu, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to save my life."

Gu Chudong asked from the side, "Elder Sang, you just said that there will be a big event in Qingzhou City. What kind of event is that?"

Lord Sang Tu said slowly, "The Jiujiang Dragon King, ranked second on the Qingzhou Heavenly Ranking, and the Dao Huang, ranked third on the Heavenly Ranking, will meet on the sixth day of the sixth lunar month for a decisive battle at the Soul-Breaking Cliff!"
