With the Eight Immortals' magical treasures in hand, even a mortal like myself! Ha!

The more Gu Qing thought about it, the more she felt this was a good opportunity; if she seized it, she might really be able to leave Huangfeng Valley.

Gu Qing was immediately freed, and could now make arrangements for many things that she had never dared to do before.

For example, meet the most beautiful woman in the Chaotic Star Sea, the legendary Wonderful Sound Sect, the Tea-blowing Fairy of the Falling Cloud Sect, and the young master of the Star Palace.

Wait a minute, Gu Qing felt a little strange. Why was his mind filled with women? He wasn't exactly a lecherous person; maybe it was just simple curiosity.

As for how to escape from Hong Fu's grasp, Gu Qing had already come up with a plan.

When the time comes, as long as we forcefully activate the Purple Gold Flute to immobilize Hong Fu, we can leave.

After leaving, use the immortal energy in the gourd to wash away the marks on your body, and then disguise yourself a little; you will surely be able to escape Hong Fu's pursuit.

Thinking of this, Gu Qing's heart skipped a beat. After leaving, he found a secluded place to cultivate in seclusion. Once he broke through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, he would look for the teleportation array to the Chaotic Star Sea. The plan was so perfect.

So much so that Gu Qing couldn't think of anything that was wrong.

Seeing Gu Qing standing there in a daze, Hong Fu couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Don't you want to go?"

"Of course not, I was just thinking about how many spirit stones to bring to the trade," Gu Qing hurriedly denied.

This is a chance to escape, how could I possibly pass it up?

"Alright, go back and prepare. It's best to only bring spirit stones; don't bring too many spirit herbs," Hong Fu reminded her.

Gu Qing accepted the suggestion without hesitation, then bowed respectfully and withdrew.

After leaving the cave, Gu Qing hurriedly returned to his thatched hut, packed away several alchemy furnaces into his storage bag, and carefully placed the talisman given to him by Hong Fu, the top-level magic weapon given to him by Lei Wanhe, and some pill recipes into a storage bag.

Gu Qing was afraid that these things might have some kind of marking on them. If they really did, then her escape would be in vain.

All of these things need to be put into the gourd. Oh, and all the spirit stones earned in Huangfeng Valley also need to be put into the gourd. Gu Qing was afraid that Huangfeng Valley might have tampered with the spirit stones.

After everything was prepared, Gu Qing pondered deeply, looking himself up and down to see what else he needed to collect.

After confirming that nothing had been overlooked, Gu Qing calmed down and went over the escape plan in her mind.

If Gu Qing remembered correctly, when the seven Core Formation cultivators opened the Crimson Forbidden Zone, they had to use their full strength to open the spatial rift, and they also needed to continuously input mana to maintain it.

That was the best time to do it yourself.

At that time, Gu Qing will directly use the real Purple Gold Flute to immobilize the seven Core Formation cultivators, and then put all the items into the gourd.

After doing all that, he escaped using his iron crutch.

Tieguai Li actually has two magical weapons: a gourd and an iron crutch. Don't underestimate Tieguai Li's iron crutch.

Iron Crutch can turn stones into gold, water into dragons; it can split mountains by striking the ground, and vanquish demons and evil spirits; it can fly with its crutch, covering thousands of miles in an instant.

Gu Qing values ​​the ability to travel thousands of miles in an instant the most.

In an instant, one can escape to a distance of a thousand miles, while the spiritual sense of a Core Formation stage cultivator can only travel within ten miles at most, and their flight speed cannot reach a thousand miles in an instant.

Everything was so perfect, everything was flawless.

"Alright, everything is ready. Let's just wait quietly for three days from now," Gu Qing said with a light laugh.

Of course, there are still some variables. It is unknown whether Gu Qing can immobilize a Core Formation cultivator when using the Purple Gold Flute for the first time.

If you can't immobilize a Core Formation cultivator, then everything is a joke.

But if he didn't try, he could only cultivate in Huangfeng Valley until he reached the Core Formation stage before venturing out. However, Core Formation takes at least several decades, which is far too long for Gu Qing to wait.

So regardless of whether it succeeds or fails, Gu Qing decided to give it a try.

And so, three days later, Gu Qing followed the Old Ancestor Hong Fu as they rode their magical artifacts into the council hall.

At this moment, there were still more than twenty Qi Refining disciples waiting in the council hall. These were all people who had participated in the Crimson Forbidden Zone.

The so-called Crimson Forbidden Land is a shattered continental space that only Qi Refining cultivators can enter, primarily to harvest the spiritual herbs and medicines within.

The three main ingredients for the Foundation Building Pill can only be obtained in the Crimson Forbidden Land at the right age.

Therefore, the Crimson Forbidden Land is a battlefield where Qi Refining disciples fight each other, and it is a place with an extremely high mortality rate.

It seems that as long as you pick eight medicinal herbs from here, you can get a Foundation Establishment Pill as a reward from the sect. This is also one of the few ways to obtain Foundation Establishment Pills within the sect.

Therefore, many cultivators without a background will fight in the Blood Forbidden Zone to compete for that Foundation Establishment Pill.

Some lucky ones, however, were directly made disciples of Core Formation cultivators.

In short, this blood-stained forbidden land is a place where opportunity and danger coexist.

When Hong Fu arrived, everyone present bowed respectfully. Upon seeing this, Hong Fu simply asked, "Is everything ready?"

"Ready!" Headmaster Zhong stepped forward to report. Hong Fu didn't waste any words after hearing this and immediately summoned a flying artifact. A flying boat grew to several zhang in length as it faced the wind. Then, with a wave of her hand, all the disciples boarded the flying boat.

After Hong Fu finished doing everything, she said, "Sit tight, everyone."

As she spoke, Hong Fu steered her flying boat and transformed into a streak of light, flying out in less than half a day. She arrived at the entrance of the Crimson Forbidden Land, but none of the other six sects' disciples came.

This is because the Crimson Forbidden Land is located within the territory of the state city where Yellow Maple Valley is situated, so it is not surprising that the people of Yellow Maple Valley arrived first.

Upon arriving at the destination, Hong Fu said, "You are free to do as you please for one day. We will meet at the summit one day later."

"Yes, Grandmaster," the twenty or thirty people said in unison, bowing their hands.

Then Hong Fu sat down cross-legged and began to meditate quietly. The disciples around her moved around freely, and no one dared to disturb Hong Fu, their grandmaster.

At this moment, Gu Qing looked around at the terrain and finally locked onto the escape direction based on the growth of the vegetation, which was to the south.

That's right, Gu Qing's first plan was to escape to Yuanwu Kingdom, then cultivate there to the late Foundation Establishment stage before returning to Yue Kingdom to find a teleportation array.

They were teleported to the Chaotic Star Sea via a teleportation array and formed their core there.

Gu Qing's arrangements are as they are for now, but everything still depends on whether he can escape in a day.

At this moment, Gu Qing felt more nervous than ever before.

"Master, I didn't expect you to come too." Han Li saw Gu Qing and didn't want to greet him, but he still stepped forward to pay his respects.

Gu Qing simply nodded and offered a word of encouragement: "Don't push yourself too hard once you're inside. If you don't have enough Foundation Establishment Pills, I'll find a way to get you some."

Having lived in the valley for a period of time, Han Li naturally knew that Foundation Establishment Pills were hard to come by, and that his two Foundation Establishment Pills were both related to his master.

If Han Li had known why his master had taken him as a disciple, he would have been very grateful to his master.
