The cultivator who proposed the idea of trading blood jade fruits with Chi Changye did not put his idea into practice. He had already obtained the fruits, so how could he spit them out again?
For several days in a row, Chi Changye was the hot topic of their conversations. He, a cultivator from the wilderness, had stepped on the heads of the Longxian Sect's proud sons, making them resentful and curious at the same time. They wanted to know what kind of person he was.
Some female cultivators also couldn't help but have the idea of exploring and longing for him. He was not only outstanding in strength, but also in demeanor and temperament. He was not inferior to the Longxian Sect's brilliant disciples. It was a pity that he fell into such a place and wasted his talent.
Some people were itching to try, thinking that if they could bring such a genius sword cultivator into their sect, it would be a great merit.
Unfortunately, Chi Changye was like a piece of insulating stone. He didn't give them a single glance from beginning to end, leaving them no room to display their intentions.
Lu Qiusheng saw all this and ran over to complain and remind Gu Yao when he was resting. He said that the Longxian Sect wanted to use their beauty to lure Chi Changye over. Gu Yao, you must keep an eye on him.
People shouldn't talk bad about others behind their backs. As soon as Lu Qiusheng finished speaking, Chi Changye appeared behind them, looking at Lu Qiusheng's hand on Gu Yao's shoulder with a blank expression.
Gu Yao couldn't help but twitch his eyebrows, feeling a bit hot in his ears. He didn't know why, and pretended to be annoyed. He gave Lu Qiusheng a punch and said, "Nonsense, is Brother Ye that kind of person?"
Lu Qiusheng saw Chi Changye coming in behind him, and was not worried that his words would offend him. He still greeted him with a smile, and then swaggered out of the tent. After he left, the atmosphere in the tent became a bit strange.
Gu Yao felt a bit uncomfortable, and moved his body. He coughed lightly and said, "Brother Ye, Brother Lu is just like that. Besides, I know that Brother Ye wouldn't look down on a sect like the Longxian Sect."
Chi Changye didn't like the way the Longxian Sect acted, so how could he compromise himself and join them just because he wanted to leave the Tianlin Continent?
"Hmm, I think he's just too idle," Chi Changye said, unconsciously scratching his back. "It seems that the things in this secret realm are too easy for him."
Gu Yao couldn't help but laugh out loud. If Brother Lu heard Brother Ye's words, could he still run out with a smile?
Seeing Gu Yao relax, Chi Changye secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a sense of loss that he couldn't explain. He was about to say something else when Tian Feirong came in and told Gu Yao that several alchemists from Cuiyan Valley had arrived. Gu Yao hurriedly got up and went out. He wouldn't make things difficult for the people from Cuiyan Valley, not to mention his gratitude to Master Hu.
Tian Feirong also followed him out, but when he passed by Chi Changye, he felt that his gaze was cold and prickly. Tian Feirong was confused. Who had offended Brother Chi?
It definitely wasn't Gu Yao. Hmm, maybe it was those guys from the Longxian Sect.

Su Yang was rescued and found a hidden place to cultivate for a while. He only came out after his injuries were completely healed. He was lucky enough to meet his fellow disciples from the Qixing Sect, and carefully made his way to the Cangkun Hall.
He was very grateful to the cultivator who saved him, and he didn't describe him or his strange beast with the pair of eerie green eyes in detail to anyone. The cultivator's performance that day clearly showed that he didn't want to reveal his identity. He understood that once it was exposed, would the Longxian Sect's cultivators let him go?
Later, he met more and more people, and learned more and more about what happened in the secret realm. The most mentioned person was Chi Changye, the sword cultivator with amazing strength. If it wasn't for him standing up and saving the situation, their situation would be very bad.
But Su Yang was very clear that the person who saved him that day was definitely not Chi Changye. When he arrived at the outskirts of the Cangkun Hall, he gradually focused his eyes on one person, and that was the alchemist Gu Yao.
Especially the battle that took place in the Fog Leech Canyon made him more and more convinced that the person who saved him was very likely Gu Yao.
That battle, the most mentioned of course was Chi Changye and the blood jade fruits they were fighting for. However, Gu Yao, an alchemist and his black cat beast, stopped several foundation-building cultivators who wanted to capture him as a hostage. This was also mentioned by many people with great interest.
Those people had two kinds of thoughts. One was that they exaggerated the facts. Alchemists were usually fragile, and how could they have such strong combat power? His black cat beast was usually regarded as a pet.
The second was that they were amazed by Gu Yao's combat power. These rumors were said by the cultivators who participated in that battle. Especially Gu Yao's unparalleled control power that he showed alone, thinking about it afterwards, how shocking it was. Compared with him, Ning Hui, who was also an alchemist and even had a higher cultivation level, seemed dull and dim.
Why? Because after Gu Yao and Chi Changye left, Ning Hui, who was hiding behind and didn't get involved in the conflict, was affected by the frenzied beasts that had bloodshot eyes. A tail whipped him and flew him out. He was actually injured. To be honest, even the Longxian Sect's cultivators, when they compared the two alchemists, couldn't say that Ning Hui performed better than Gu Yao.
The combat power of Gu Yao described in the rumors, as well as the incredible strength of the kitten by his side, made Su Yang believe that the person who saved him that day was Gu Yao and that black cat beast. He had heard before that Gu Yao had changed his appearance before he reunited with Chi Changye.
He saw Gu Yao walk out of the tent from a distance, talking with other cultivators, and a black kitten stepped on his shoulder, or sat on his shoulder with a butt. Gu Yao was also good-tempered and let it move. Su Yang thought for a moment, and turned around, deciding to keep this matter in his heart, and wait for the day when he could say it in the future to express his gratitude personally. Saying it now would only increase Gu Yao's trouble.
It was fine to kill the Longxian Sect's cultivators, but Chi Changye killed even more people. That black kitten was very strange. He only dared to confirm that it was not a black cat beast, and it must have an extraordinary origin. If others knew, he didn't know what kind of thoughts they would have.
When Su Yang turned his eyes back, Gu Yao looked in that direction and scratched his head in confusion. He seemed to have a tangled gaze on him for a long time, and he didn't know who it was.
He didn't find anyone, so Gu Yao threw it behind his head.

Time passed quickly, and half a month was just a blink of an eye. The people waiting outside the Cangkun Hall clearly felt the fluctuations of spiritual energy and the changes of the restrictions. They put away the things in their hands and prepared to enter the Cangkun Hall at any time. Just looking from the outside, they could feel the majestic momentum of the Cangkun Hall, not to mention that the entire palace complex was splendid and magnificent, and the materials used were all excellent spiritual materials.
Gu Yao successfully pushed his cultivation to the peak of the early stage of foundation building, and was only one step away from entering the middle stage of foundation building. He knew his own situation. If he was outside, even if he had a constant supply of pills, it would take him several years to reach this level.
Tian Feirong and Xiaopangzi's strength also steadily improved, and they were not far from foundation building.
The ground shook and the mountains swayed. Many cultivators flew into the air, and the nearby beasts and birds were also alarmed and retreated.
The crystal snake Liuli crawled onto Xiaopangzi's shoulder, shaking his head and looking at the Cangkun Hall in front of him. There was a look of longing and fear in his snake eyes. This emotion was transmitted to Xiaopangzi, who touched its smooth and fine scales and communicated with it for a while, and then simultaneously sent a message to the other three people on his side.
"Liuli said that this place was not something that these beasts could enter before, but now that they have contracted, they are not affected. It also said that there are good things inside."
Including Chi Changye, they all showed a surprised look. No wonder those beasts and birds ran out instead of trying to follow them in. It turned out that there was this reason. It seemed that Liuli, the crystal snake, was the smartest. He found a cultivator to contract and broke this rule.
As for the good things, it was obvious that they were protected by strict restrictions. They must not lack good things, but it didn't mean that there was no danger. Otherwise, why would the crystal snake show a fearful look?
But the map from the Longxian Sect didn't mark the situation of the Cangkun Hall, so they had to explore it by themselves.
At this moment, the air trembled, and the light dissipated. The outer restrictions finally stopped moving. Without anyone calling, everyone swarmed in. There were cultivators in the sky and on the ground, and many of them were unfamiliar faces that they had never seen before. Thinking of how many cultivators had died along the way, but there were still so many, besides the secret realm being big, there were also many cultivators from different places. When the secret realm closed, maybe there would be many cultivators who had never been heard of before, shining brightly on the Tianlin Continent.
No one dared to stop in front of Chi Changye, so he took Gu Yao and a few others and went straight in. The speed was astonishing, and he disappeared in a blink of an eye, leaving no chance for those who wanted to target him and Gu Yao.
"Brother Chi, why don't we split up and explore? Contact us if anything happens?" Jiang Yan took the initiative to say, having a bunch of people crowded together was more disadvantageous, and maybe they would have their own chances if they split up.
"Alright, you guys take care." Chi Changye glanced at everyone and said with a fist.
"Brother Chi and Alchemist Gu, take care!" The students from the Tianfu Academy who followed in were very smart and said goodbye, and then chose a direction that didn't look too dangerous, and quickly flew away on their magic tools.
"Second brother, big brother won't go with you guys. You guys take care!" Tian Feiyang decided to go with his fellow disciples from the Tianhai Sect. They had already gained a lot of benefits by following Gu Yao and Chi Changye.
"Big brother, be careful." Tian Feirong said earnestly.
"Let's go." Chi Changye rolled up a few people with a sword aura, turned into a sword light and escaped. The speed was amazing, and he disappeared in a blink of an eye, leaving no chance for those who wanted to target him and Gu Yao.
When they landed, they appeared in a courtyard. The four of them, including the two beasts, ran to different rooms to search. Gu Yao ran into one of the rooms, which looked like a bedroom. There was a bed, a white jade pillow, and a book on the small table next to the bed. The book was open to the middle.
Gu Yao felt as if the owner of this place had just left. He was leaning on the bed and reading that book before he left. He thought he would only leave for a short time, but he never came back.
Gu Yao couldn't help but walk in and reach out to touch the book. He wanted to know what the original owner was reading before he left.
There was no obstacle, and the book fell into his hands. When he saw the words on the book, Gu Yao was stunned. He said to Xu Chen in the space, "This is the ancient text."
"Yes, it is the ancient text. It seems that this Cangkun Hall and the entire Cangkun Secret Realm belong to the ancient times. Do you recognize this text?" Xu Chen asked in surprise, because he later saw that Gu Yao was reading the content on the page.
Gu Yao closed the book and put it in the Dan Pavilion. He replied, "Senior, don't you remember the situation of the stone tablet in the valley before? I have this kind of text in the memory I got."
Xu Chen|This kid is really lucky. Even those who have learned some of it may not recognize all of it, but Gu Yao seems to be able to read it fluently.
Xu Chen asked, "What is written on the book?"
Gu Yao had a strange expression: "The content on that page records the situation of a city lord and another city lord arguing with each other."
Xu Chen: "…Pfft! Does that mean this might be a book that records gossip?"
There was a feeling of disillusionment. The people nowadays look at the ancient cultivators and think that they are high above, and can destroy the stars with a flip of their hands. But when they think of such a powerful person lying on the bed and reading other people's gossip, they feel that the high person has fallen from the altar.
Gu Yao nodded: "Yes, it's very likely. Is it unbelievable? The ancient seniors are also human, just like you."
Gu Yao had experienced the disillusionment of Xu Chen's high person image before, so he just felt awkward and accepted it. Even if they were high above, they also had emotions and liked to live in groups.
High people also like to argue, and there are high people who like to record other people's arguments and sell them as books.
He was about to leave, when Gu Yao's eyes swept over a feather fan on the other side. He reached out and took it, checked it, and widened his eyes: "This is a spiritual tool?!"
Xu Chen felt that he could finally regain his face, and said: "It's just a spiritual tool. What's the big deal? You have the Dan Pavilion, and you still scream for a spiritual tool?"
Gu Yao twitched his mouth. He just felt that this fan was really something that the original owner casually used to fan himself, not as a weapon. But such a common living utensil turned out to be a spiritual tool. How could he not be surprised? The best thing that can be found on the Tianlin Continent now is nothing more than a top-grade magic tool, and the spiritual tool is above the magic tool.
