The Primordial Nether Sect is ancient Demon Dao with profound foundations, stronger than top-tier major cultivation sects like Medicine King Mountain, Star River Sword Sect, and Gu God Sect, which have only been established for thousands of years, in terms of influence and power.
Disputes between the two sides will lead to deaths, and many will die!
He Ling True Master quickly calmed down, just sneering and saying:
"No matter how big this matter is, it's just life and death. Sanshi, don't think you can disturb my mind."
Zheng!
As he spoke, the sword light that pinned down the Old Man Sanshi just trembled, immediately suppressing the Old Man Sanshi's divine fragment on the spot.
"He Ling brat, wait until my Three Corpses unite, today's enmity... I'll settle it with you then."
As the divine fragment was suppressed, the Old Man Sanshi's weak yet still calm voice reached the ears of Gu Yuan and He Ling True Master.
"What do you think?"
He Ling True Master did not turn his head, but Gu Yuan knew this question was a test for himself.
"Disciple believes that what the Old Man Sanshi said might be true, but there are also some falsehoods in it."
Gu Yuan's voice was naturally calm, saying:
"Since the Primordial Nether Sect only sent Old Man Sanshi as a vanguard, it must be to probe the situation, to measure the strength of our Medicine King Mountain as well as Star River Sword Sect and Gu God Sect, to gather detailed information."
"This precisely shows that although the Primordial Nether Sect is strong, its strength is not unlimited. Otherwise, they wouldn't act so cautiously."
At this moment, Gu Yuan also thought about why Baochan True Master and Xingyunzi appeared during the previous test of innate talent.
It turns out the three major cultivation sects were also aware of the emergence of the Primordial Nether Sect.
He Ling True Master nodded slightly but said nothing more.
Regardless of whether Gu Yuan's words were reasonable, at least Gu Yuan's performance did not disappoint him.
Whether it was Gu Yuan's progress in swordsmanship, or his decisive and determined mindset when facing a seasoned old demon like Old Man Sanshi, it was beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators.
He Ling True Master appraised Gu Yuan, suddenly pointing out:
"With your current swordsmanship accomplishments, once you enter the Celestial Human Realm, you can directly transform your swordsmanship into a superior divine technique, with potential for future enhancement, saving the effort of cultivating other divine techniques."
"You should know that cultivating divine techniques in the Celestial Human Realm is not about having more or being more exquisite, but about aligning with your own foundation, character, and intent, so that your True Qi can exert ten times the power."
"Some superior, top-grade divine techniques also require a solid foundation and talent to succeed. If forced to cultivate, it may damage your foundation, resulting in more loss than gain. Of course, this is just something you need to be mindful of."
"The 'Jade Scenery Profound Core Sword Formulas' I taught you is not the most top-grade swordsmanship in the world, but it has one advantage: it's suitable for everyone. A hundred people cultivating this swordsmanship often result in variations due to habits, true self, intent, and character, ultimately forming different swordsmanships."
He Ling True Master said earnestly:
"Your swordsmanship aligns with your temperament and intent, formed from your true self and foundation, and in the future, it might evolve into a top-grade sword skill divine technique or even the legendary great divine technique!"
"When you ascend to the Celestial Human Realm and master the sword skill divine technique, it's not too late to explore other divine techniques."
"Yes, disciple will remember it in my heart."
Gu Yuan respectfully saluted, firmly remembering the words of He Ling True Master.
It can only be said that having a master is truly beneficial. Many issues in cultivation can be guided, and many obstacles and unnecessary troubles in the cultivation process can be avoided.
As far as Gu Yuan knows, countless loose cultivators lack a complete heritage and guidance from teachers, leading them astray, making one mistake after another.
Ultimately, their foundation becomes impure, and they are disconnected from the Dao!
As for He Ling True Master's remarks about cultivating divine techniques in the Celestial Human Realm, Gu Yuan also deeply agrees.
However, he also has his own plans.
That is to take the top-grade divine technique 'Void Moon Reflected Sword Formulas' as the main focus, supplemented by 'Jade Scenery Profound Core Sword Formulas,' allowing them to mutually validate each other, elevating his Sword Dao to a higher level!
Coupled with other divine techniques from the 'Primordial True Water Scripture,' it can naturally forge an Upper Grade Golden Core!
"Master, just now this Old Man Sanshi was actually possessing one of our Medicine King Mountain's disciples, surnamed Chen, he..."
Immediately, without waiting for He Ling True Master to inquire, Gu Yuan took the initiative to explain Chen Old Man's situation.
Upon hearing it, He Ling True Master nodded, acknowledging it without saying much, only reminding Gu Yuan with a few words before turning and leaving.
"Old Man Sanshi..."
Gu Yuan glanced at the shattered remains of Chen Old Man on the ground, his expression calm, yet the veins on his hand holding the Silver Flood Dragon Sword faintly bulged.
After a moment, he sighed softly, gathered the remnants from the ground, found a place to bury them.
The appearance of Old Man Sanshi made Gu Yuan highly vigilant.
Had it not been for He Ling True Master today, even a mere divine fragment of Old Man Sanshi would have been beyond his ability to handle.
The gap in realm isn't so easily bridged.
To kill across levels requires a solid foundation and high-quality magical artifacts as a premise.
With Gu Yuan's cultivation strength, if an ordinary Celestial Human Realm cultivator comes, he can cut them down with his sword.
But the problem is that Old Man Sanshi is not only a Golden Core Great Cultivator, but also a seasoned Golden Core Cultivator, with cultivation close to the Yin Spirit Realm.
Surpassing Gu Yuan by two Great Realms!
Even though it was just a negligible divine fragment of Old Man Sanshi, it still possessed the essence of nearly a Yin Spirit.
Even if Gu Yuan were allowed to cut it down, it wouldn't harm its essence in the slightest.
Thus, despite Gu Yuan's rising fame, becoming a renowned young talent in the Qinzhou Cultivation Realm, his strength is still far lacking!
Even with his current cultivation, he can't yet be called a "cultivator."
Unless he advances to the Celestial Human Realm and masters divine techniques, he can be regarded as a bona fide cultivator, and his strength will increase substantially!
For now, Old Man Sanshi has clearly set his sights on him, and the next time they meet, it won't be so easy to deal with.
As for Chen Old Man's death, it also brought considerable shock to Gu Yuan.
Chen Old Man was both a mentor and a friend to him, often guiding him in the past. His Dao Heart was firm, and for revenge, to reshape his foundation, to renew his Dao path, he schemed for a long time. This spirit, this patience, even Gu Yuan admired greatly.
Ultimately, Chen Old Man's plan succeeded, reshaping his physical foundation, renewing his Dao path, and he got the chance to start anew.
With his determination, he should have a bright future.
However, such a person was unknowingly turned into a clone by Old Man Sanshi, dying in confusion, unclear and unexplained.
All of Chen Old Man's previous plans, patience, calculations, and hopes for the Dao path became in vain!
The fall of this person, both a mentor and a friend, made Gu Yuan feel sorrowful and sad.
The path of cultivation is indeed difficult and full of obstacles, requiring great fortune and determination to achieve.
