Refining Ruins Cauldron

The disciples in the Pill Hall were extremely envious.

A few months ago, Gu Qingyun was just like them, but now he has already reached the Foundation Establishment stage and ascended to the heavens in one step!

Isn't it said that mixed spiritual roots are no different from useless things?

Why is Gu Qingyun not one of them?

Just then, a gentle breeze blew by, and the white-haired old man quietly arrived.

It was none other than the sect leader of the Longevity Sect, the True Man Qing Gu.

The saying "appearing without a trace and disappearing without a trace" is exactly what it means. By the time everyone could see clearly, Master Qinggu had already arrived in front of Gu Qingyun.

Everyone hurriedly bowed, but the latter stopped them with one hand.

"No need for formalities."

Master Qinggu's attention was now entirely focused on Gu Qingyun. A powerful spiritual sense instantly enveloped the latter, and nothing escaped his perception.

"Not bad, not bad..."

After a moment, Master Qinggu uttered only four words and nodded with considerable satisfaction.

"In that case, I don't need to worry too much about entering the Taiyi Secret Realm."

Originally, Master Qinggu intended to help Gu Qingyun establish his foundation.

Unexpectedly, Gu Qingyun did it first without him having to lift a finger.

I knew I hadn't misjudged him.

After speaking, Master Qinggu flipped his right hand, and a silver longsword appeared out of thin air, landing steadily in his hand.

"This is my gift to you for your Foundation Establishment. Please accept it."

Now that Master Qinggu is Gu Qingyun's master, he naturally has to express his gratitude for the good news of his disciple's successful Foundation Establishment.

The latter's eyes lit up when he saw the silver longsword.

"This...a high-grade spiritual artifact?!"

Not to mention him, even Elder Huo Qian and Nalan Feixue beside him were surprised, with the former even exclaiming in surprise.

Spiritual artifacts are rare, and most of them are of low quality, such as Gu Qingyun's Green Serpent Spiritual Sword.

Even so, the power of the Green Serpent Spirit Sword is still quite terrifying.

The superior-grade spirit sword before us is naturally even rarer, and its power when used will be even greater!

As for how powerful it is, only Gu Qingyun will know after using it.

The fact that Master Qinggu gave such a spiritual artifact to Gu Qingyun shows how much he valued the latter.

Gu Qingyun accepted the gift respectfully and bowed with clasped hands.

"Disciple thanks Master!"

I've always used the Refining Ruins Cauldron to deduce cultivation techniques and elixirs, but I don't know if this spiritual artifact can do the same.

Go back and give it a try!

Gu Qingyun thought to himself.

This scene made everyone else envious.

The sect leader immediately presented a top-grade spiritual weapon. You should know that such a treasure is priceless and unavailable in the outside world.

Let alone Foundation Establishment cultivators, even some Golden Core cultivators would be tempted!

Elder Huo Qian watched from the side, his mouth practically watering.

Although they are both alchemists, the best spiritual weapon he possesses is only of low grade, which cannot compare to the one in Gu Qingyun's possession!

Envy is understandable, but this was a gift from Master Qinggu, and Gu Qingyun was still his disciple. No one else could say anything, much less dare to harbor any ulterior motives.

With a Nascent Soul expert backing them up, they can walk sideways not only within the sect but also outside of it.

"Alright, everyone go back."

Before long, Master Qinggu waved his hand and ordered the guests to leave.

He then turned around and said, "Now that you have established your foundation, come with me to the Taiyi Secret Realm in a week."

……

Time flew by, and on the morning of that day, dozens of people gathered outside the Changsheng Sect, each with sharp eyes and full of energy.

They got up very early, and there was not a trace of dissatisfaction in their eyes, only excitement and anticipation!

The Taiyi Secret Realm is a rare find, containing countless rare and precious materials. Obtaining even one of them can save one from taking a hundred years of detours.

For these spiritual practitioners, it was nothing short of paradise!

As long as you can come out alive, you will at least become a Golden Core expert in the future!

Which Foundation Establishment cultivator could resist such temptation?

However, opportunities and risks go hand in hand; of those who came out last time, less than one in a hundred survived!

Everyone knows how difficult it is.

Outside the mountain gate, on the open ground, thirty Foundation Establishment disciples waited quietly without making a sound.

"You're all here, right?"

The four simple words, though seemingly soft, resonated clearly and deeply in everyone's ears.

As the words were spoken, Master Qing Gu descended slowly, his feet treading on the void.

Those aged eyes were filled with profound depth, and behind him followed three elders, all of whom were at the Golden Core stage.

One of them was Nalan Feixue.

Today, she changed into a white dress, simple and elegant, without any superfluous decorations, yet she was still as beautiful as an angel.

Nalan Feixue glanced at the disciples, her gaze lingering a little longer on Gu Qingyun before she looked away.

"Greetings, Sect Master!"

The crowd bowed and responded in unison, their voices echoing like thunder in the air.

Master Qinggu nodded slowly, as a return gesture.

"The dangers of this journey to the Taiyi Secret Realm are no less than those of Yama's Hell. The geniuses of each sect will cross the sea, each displaying their unique abilities, and life and death are not to be feared."

"The elixirs, cultivation techniques, and opportunities are all good, but I want you to remember, the most important thing is to stay alive!"

"As long as the green hills remain, there's always firewood to burn. Get out alive, understand?"

"Yes, Sect Master!"

The crowd responded.

Seeing this, Qing Gu Zhenren withdrew his gaze, casually waved his hand, and a roll of talisman flew out from under his Taoist robe. With a whoosh, it stirred up a gust of wind and transformed into a flying boat!

The flying boat, with its antique charm and nearly 100 meters long, hovers in mid-air, blocking out the sun.

The boat is engraved with various golden inscriptions, emitting a faint glow. If you look closely, you can also sense the rich spiritual energy emanating from it.

"Set off!"

As Master Qinggu spoke, he was the first to board the ship, followed by the other elders.

Gu Qingyun, along with the remaining Foundation Establishment disciples, landed steadily on the deck.

With everything ready, Master Qinggu waved his hand again, and the inscriptions on the flying boat shone brightly, slowly rising into the sky with the sound of the wind.

Then, it transformed into a streak of light and shot off towards the horizon with a whoosh.

This speed is faster than any flying magical artifact Gu Qingyun has ever seen before!

The wind howled all around, and all the scenery seemed to rush past, too fast to be seen clearly.

Gu Qingyun sensed the changes around him, feeling both curious and fortunate.

Who could have imagined that the servant whose fate was once uncertain would now be on the path to the Taiyi Secret Realm?

……

The speedboat traveled at breakneck speed for three full days before finally slowing down.

The destination is right in front of us.

This place is a valley, and the surrounding scenery is extremely desolate. As far as the eye can see, there are jagged rocks, and the only living things that can be seen are the withered yellow weeds.

As the airship landed, Gu Qingyun finally saw an archway made of huge rocks standing in the middle of the valley.

The highest point of the archway is about ten meters high, standing there quietly, and it doesn't look out of place.

But Gu Qingyun could clearly feel an extremely dense fluctuation of spiritual energy, wave after wave, like waves, like a heartbeat.

"Is this the entrance to the Taiyi Secret Realm?"

At this moment, two groups of people, dressed in different clothes, were already standing around the stone gate. They should be the prodigies of the other two sects.

These disciples were also quite strong, all possessing Foundation Establishment cultivation, and each of them was arrogant and haughty.
