Chapter 458: Can the Cangmu Sect Protect You?
Outside the Cangmu Sect.
A group of five people looked at this Sect and paused for a moment before saying, "This place is quite strange."
The speaker was the leading young man.
Behind him were four others, two men and two women.
One woman was seductive, the other innocent.
One man was muscular, the other short.
Only the leading young man seemed the most normal.
"The Heavenly Maiden Lineage previously dispatched people, and the Fire Phoenix Clan along with the Buddhist Sect sent people here, but they all seem to have disappeared without a trace.
There might be something hidden inside." The seductive woman said with a smile:
"This seemingly unremarkable Sect probably harbors some secrets it doesn't want others to know."
"These have nothing to do with us. We're here to extract something related to the Eye of Heavenly Punishment." The innocent woman said calmly, "Outer Peak's Gu An, along with Shangguan He, who betrayed the Heavenly Maiden Lineage.
Bring them out, and then we can understand what this Sect is approximately hiding."
The young man shook his head and sighed, "We can't openly enter; others have entered openly, and then they either sacrificed themselves for this Sect or mysteriously left and haven't reappeared."
"Is it possible to get the whereabouts of the Eye of Heavenly Punishment from their mouths?" The middle-aged man asked.
Upon hearing this, everyone shook their heads.
The possibility is very low.
But they've tried other methods and cannot find the Eye of Heavenly Punishment.
They've been waiting here for a long time, thinking that the Eye of Heavenly Punishment would appear soon and bring a huge crisis.
Unfortunately, it hasn't happened.
Jiutian Temple collaborated with the Buddhist Sect, using the Ruishui River to create momentum for the Buddhist Sect, and Jiutian Temple also wanted to create momentum for themselves.
They just never expected the Eye of Heavenly Punishment to be so delayed in action.
Of course, they are quite impressed by that big figure in the Heavenly Maiden Lineage.
To dare to venture into danger himself.
"Recently, it's been heard that the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch can protect that big figure, letting him act freely." The young man said with emotion:
"The return of the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch has injected vitality into the whole Jiutian Temple.
Having many ideas is normal.
And some people are too rigid and are destined to be abandoned.
What we need to do now is to complete our mission."
"Currently, the easiest to find should be Outer Peak's Gu An, but he originally had Golden Core Perfection, and now he's said to have transformed into a strong Immortal Bridge, having ignited Two Flowers." The short man frowned and said, "If this is true, rushing over recklessly might result in fruitless returns."
"Indeed somewhat troublesome." The middle-aged man felt puzzled, "This news came quickly, as if many people analyzed it and confirmed the cultivation was hidden.
But there are differing opinions on how he reached this realm.
Some say he received the heritage of the Fire Phoenix Clan, leading to a rapid advancement in cultivation, relying on the Fire Phoenix Clan's power to ignite Two Flowers.
Others say he obtained the Heavenly Maiden Lineage's treasured possession, thereby exploding with power, achieving Three Flower strong status.
Furthermore, some claim he relies on a special Reincarnation Wheel that appeared then in the East Road Ancient State, which he obtained, thus advancing rapidly.
Currently, the second theory seems impossible, while the first and third have high possibilities.
Moreover, it's likely an accumulation of these possibilities.
This suggests that the opponent's life-preserving capabilities must be extremely strong, and their burst power is not lacking.
The Fire Phoenix Clan is hard to kill, and burning life in the Zhuanlun lineage would strengthen considerably.
With our cultivation, it seems we can suppress him, but if we truly fight, we may not benefit.
Regrettably, the original team went to greet a trace of the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch's Divine Split, otherwise, it wouldn't be this troublesome."
Upon hearing this, the innocent-looking woman slowly spoke, "Actually, there's a certain false element to Gu An, he hasn't truly acted yet nor shown strength surpassing Golden Core.
These remarks have a certain probability of being rumors, meant to lure people to find him, while those who stirred the rumors will observe from the shadows, reaping benefits."
"There indeed exists such a possibility, but we don't have the need to gamble on it, just deal with him as if he's a Three Flower strong person, but also must guard against those behind him." The young man slowly spoke, "Actually, rumors are possible, but rumor turning a Golden Core directly into a Three Flower strong is too big a leap, is anyone foolish enough to believe this?
Anyone might poke a hole in such a rumor."
"Regardless of the situation, let me go." The seductive woman smiled slightly and said, "I have the blessing of the Heavenly Demon, even if he's ignited Two Flowers, he still won't be able to resist my Charming Technique even with Three Flowers.
Two Flowers just gained Immortal Qi and Immortal Bone, but the Divine Soul has yet to change.
Under these circumstances, he will naturally find it difficult to resist.
The Heavenly Demon Qi Immortal Soul cannot be resisted, let alone him?
Once I can enter Outer Peak, I can come into contact with him.
Thus he'll kneel beneath my skirt."
"I'll investigate the others; I can roughly locate Shangguan He and their positions." The short man said at this moment.
Five people discussed slightly.
Finally, they decided that two would infiltrate, and three would respond from outside.
To see if there are any other changes.
If they can return, that's best, if not, then they need a long-term plan.
This Cangmu Sect may be even more troublesome than they thought.
Then they'll have to invite another team.
Perhaps they can also see a trace of the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch's Divine Split.
Afterward, they said no more and began their arrangements.
Meanwhile, Gu An was still waiting at the Outer Peak.
He couldn't know when the people from the Heavenly Maiden Lineage would arrive.
It's now September, only three months till the marriage.
In another month or two, he can go to Luo Sheng Hall once again.
