Chapter 122: Chapter 113: Tribulation Cultivator’s Methods or Supreme Prowess?

Six streams of Escape Light arrived in unison, encircling Gu Yuan and his companions in an instant, with a murderous aura spreading rapidly.

"Senior Brothers and Sisters, what is the meaning of this?"

Seeing the sudden appearance of the group, Bian Chuyao’s expression changed slightly, unable to resist asking.

Zhou Jun, Zhuang Kangsheng of Formless Peak, Mo Nanlian of Yingyue Peak, Xiao Yi of Cyan Flame Peak, Si Rujing of Ruyi Peak, Su Huazheng... excluding Ji Mobai of Celestial Spirit Peak, the remaining six from the Secret Realm were all present here.

"Meaning?"

"Hmph, a mere Humble Lineage, yet dares to compete with us for the Secret Realm?!"

"Junior Sister Bian, does your Bian Family not have fellow clansmen?!"

Among the six, Su Huazheng was the first to speak, his voice cold and filled with strong resentment as he looked at Gu Yuan, and even his gaze towards Bian Chuyao was equally hostile.

"Su Huazheng, is this your doing? The struggle at the Flowing Cloud Banquet is an age-old rule of the Daoist School, and the loser cannot complain. Your actions now, can they still be considered those of a fellow disciple?!"

Bian Chuyao’s eyes flashed, immediately understanding their intentions, but she still questioned, speaking up for Gu Yuan.

Her words made the crowd frown slightly, and Su Huazheng smirked coldly.

"Junior Sister Bian, Junior Brother Feng, both of you hail from great families, as do we, now it’s not too late to renounce darkness and join the light. We can share the Spiritual Qi of this Secret Realm according to the quotas of each family and vein, each taking what they need."

"Otherwise, don’t blame us for being ruthless!"

Zhou Jun glanced at Bian Chuyao and Feng Anping, first sighing, then his eyes turned cold as he warned.

"Senior Brother Zhou, why waste words with them? The girl from the Bian Family has long been blinded and doesn’t even know her own name. In my opinion, let’s just capture these three, break Gu Yuan’s limbs, abolish his Mana, and trap the remaining two here. We’ll take the Spiritual Qi, leaving them empty-handed as a punishment!"

Su Huazheng’s eyes flickered as he immediately proposed.

His words instantly stirred the rest.

Besides Gu Yuan, the pressure of competing for Spiritual Qi in the Secret Realm was still immense, insufficient for several people to share.

If those three were eliminated, the situation would improve significantly.

"As for abolishing Mana, let’s not speak of it again. This is a Secret Realm contested by the Daoist School with sect laws in place, not some desolate mountain wilderness. Yet, a mere Humble Lineage, lacking skill and heavily injured, should invite no critique."

After exchanging a glance, Zhuang Kangsheng of Formless Peak suddenly spoke, staring at Gu Yuan.

"Indeed, lacking skill, one cannot blame others!"

"Junior Sister Bian, Junior Brother Feng, I’ll give you one more chance, don’t make a mistake!"

Mo Nanlian of Yingyue Peak also spoke coldly.

If not for the fact that the Feng Family and Bian Family were also prominent clans, they would have already acted, but due to the special status of those two, they restrained their inner impulse, giving them one last chance.

Yet the pressure in their words was intense.

During the conversation, the group gathered, their Mana surging out like six great mountains, encircling Gu Yuan and the other two.

Bian Chuyao’s and Feng Anping’s faces immediately turned grim.

Especially Feng Anping, whose eyes revealed a hint of retreat.

He hadn’t expected that a mere Gu Yuan would provoke six people to join forces. Without thinking, he had followed Bian Chuyao, which seemed somewhat reckless.

However, faced with such compulsion, forcing him to become a "fickle villain," he was also quite resentful.

But... being up against six people at once! 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

These six were the top figures in the Qi Refining Realm of the Daoist School, and with the odds against him, if he didn’t want to be quickly eliminated from the Secret Realm, it seemed he had no choice but to concede?

He showed hesitation, looking at Bian Chuyao.

Bian Chuyao’s face was grave as she looked at Gu Yuan.

Facing the six, she was also powerless but noticed that Gu Yuan’s expression remained calm and indifferent, as if he wasn’t the one being pressured.

"Hey, do you have some plan? Tell me quickly!"

She urgently transmitted her voice.

But Gu Yuan slightly shook his head, did not transmit his voice, and instead responded aloud: "There’s no plan, just two paths."

At this moment, this little rascal still put on such airs, leaving Bian Chuyao momentarily stunned, but she instinctively asked: "What two paths?"

"If you leave, then I’ll let you all see what true Tribulation Cultivator methods are..."

"If you don’t leave, then I’ll witness just what qualifications self-proclaimed geniuses from the so-called Seven Clans have to boast so wildly!"

"In such a narrow Secret Realm, don’t you think ten people are a bit too crowded?!"

Gu Yuan turned towards the six encircling him, giving them a toothy grin.

But those white teeth carried a sinister chill, much like the Silver Flood Dragon in his Sea of Consciousness, brimming with malice.

Bian Chuyao listened to Gu Yuan’s words and looked at the vast and boundless Secret Realm, feeling momentarily dizzy.

The six opposite were already furious.

"How audacious!"

"A mere Humble Lineage, lucky to get a position, thinks he’s above others?"

Su Huazheng rebuked first.

The others, while acknowledging Gu Yuan’s strength, were deeply displeased by his brazenness against the joint efforts of six.

"Without teaching him a lesson, he’ll really think he can overturn the heavens!"

Zhou Jun’s face turned cold, not waiting for Bian Chuyao and Feng Anping to respond, his Spiritual Sense roared like a Golden Sword, suddenly striking towards Gu Yuan.

Su Huazheng rejoiced internally and immediately followed suit, his Spiritual Sense converging like vines, attacking Gu Yuan together.

"Slash!"

Zhuang Kangsheng of Formless Peak, Mo Nanlian of Yingyue Peak, Xiao Yi of Cyan Flame Peak, and Si Rujing of Ruyi Peak, all attacked at once. Six dazzling Spiritual Senses screamed through the air, flickering with strange colors, intending to shred Gu Yuan to pieces.

Gu Yuan merely turned his head slightly, giving Bian Chuyao a glance.

Bian Chuyao’s expression fluctuated, finally gritting her teeth, as a golden Fire Phoenix soared into the sky, meeting Si Rujing of Ruyi Peak.

Seeing this, Feng Anping hesitated for a moment before revealing a faint madness, confronting Xiao Yi of Cyan Flame Peak.

"Hahaha!"

"Magnificent!"

Seeing this, Gu Yuan burst into laughter, gazing at the four before him, his eyes icy cold.

"Roar!"

The Silver Flood Dragon adorned with scale armor roared out, fearlessly confronting the four incoming Spiritual Senses.

After consuming the Silver Beast Hide Book, Gu Yuan’s Spiritual Sense had grown significantly, its scales distinct, whiskers radiant, almost lifelike, exuding dominance.

Yet, confronting four Top-Grade Spiritual Senses, it seemed still inadequate.

But inside Gu Yuan’s Dantian, his Mana, thrice that of ordinary cultivators, surged violently, plunging into the Little Giant God Seal.

The Little Giant God Seal trembled unceasingly, the Dao Patterns upon it gleaming brightly, almost detaching.

When a mighty one uses this seal, it’s unrivaled. For the pinnacle, it has a premier effect.

Gu Yuan intended today to shatter all defiance with a premier display!

"Roar!"

As if a real Flood Dragon descended, a massive roar shook the surroundings, instilling every life form with dread.

The Golden Sword whistled through the air, giant vines lashed, a White Tiger roared, a Green Luan spread its wings... yet, the Silver Flood Dragon nearly materialized physically, its massive body surpassing the typical realm of cultivators’ Spiritual Senses.

"Roar!"

The Flood Dragon roared, fierce and dominant, shattering the four Top-Grade Spiritual Senses in an instant, retaliating fiercely at the four.

The faces of the four stiffened, tinged slightly pale.
