His heart had already vanished, and a residual sword aura lingered in his wound, causing a steady stream of blood to gush out.
“Ran, what… what happened to you?”
An elder with trembling lips supported Guo Ran, who was on the brink of collapse. Placing his palm on Guo Ran’s back, he channeled spiritual energy directly into the residual sword aura in his wound.
Subsequently, the injury began to heal slowly.
However, despite this, Guo Ran’s eyes gradually dimd.
With a bitter smile, he shook his head: “Master, save your energy, at my level, without a heart, there can be no survival.”
“I didn’t expect that my disciple would die before , leaving without care in my old age!”
The elder’s eyes moistened imdiately: “What exactly happened? Why did it turn out this way?”
Guo Ran shook his head with a bitter smile: “Today, I learned how great the gap is between and the real heaven genius, Jiang Yuan is too terrifying!”
Then, he tightly grasped the elder’s aged hand: “Master, rember not to seek revenge for , he’s a foe we can’t afford to cross, really can’t afford!”
As he pronounced the last few words, his eyes were filled with fear.
Only when he faced Jiang Yuan directly did he realize how vast their disparity was.
The difference was akin to that of an ordinary star and the bright moon.
That one streak of sword light, the unexceptional technique of manipulating objects with divine sense.
He was utterly helpless against it.
Seeing him in his seemingly final rally, the elder nodded solemnly: “Alright!”
“That’s good!” Guo Ran sighed with relief.
Then, he turned to gaze at Ling Feng in the distance, their eyes colliding in the void.
“Sect Master! I’m sorry!” Guo Ran’s voice was weak, and his face had already begun to turn pale and lifeless.
With his heart no longer functioning, he felt progressively weaker.
Ling Feng also sighed deeply: “Ah ”
Then, Guo Ran glanced at Gongsun Zhi: “Elder Gongsun, I have failed your trust!”
Gongsun Zhi, witnessing this, felt a pang of pity.
This reminded her of her own disciple, Zhao Li.
She shook her head and sighed, “You’ve done your best!”
“Yes! I really have done my best…”
Just as he finished his sentence, Guo Ran’s eyes darkened completely, and he slumped into his master’s arms.
The elder held Guo Ran’s lifeless body in silence.
Scenes from the past decade surfaced one by one in his mind.
Guo Ran, a child picked up from the mortal realm, was his most regarded disciple, as dear to him as his own son.
And he did not disappoint, his cultivation advancing swiftly over the years, living up to his expectations.
He had sent him out this ti, hoping that his disciple would astonish all and make it onto the Heavenly Ranking, contributing to the Sect as well.
However, the day he left turned out to be the day of his death.
And he had to send off a younger man in his old age.
“Fourth Elder!” Ling Feng couldn’t help but call out to him.
The elder slightly swayed, appearing like an old man on his last legs.
He then held Guo Ran’s lifeless body, saying, “Sect Master, I’m sorry! I must leave first to prepare a proper burial for my disciple!”
“Ah ” Ling Feng sighed again, and said, “You go ahead!”
The Fourth Elder, holding Guo Ran’s body, shot directly into the sky, heading towards the Sunset Sect.
Ling Feng looked at the indifferent Lu Qingshan and said, “Congratulations, Sect Master Lu, you have won!”
Lu Qingshan responded with a faint smile: “As I said earlier, I have great confidence in Jiang Yuan!”
Ling Feng countered: “So Jiang Yuan had already achieved the Spiritual Sea Realm, no wonder Sect Master Lu agreed to this dispute over the mining vein! Sect Master Lu, you really know how to keep secrets!”
Lu Qingshan smiled: “Aren’t you the sa? It’s just that your tactics were inferior.”
Inside the Treasure of Heaven and Earth.
With Jiang Yuan manipulating the Yin Yang sword, it split into nine.
The Sunset Sect disciples who ca with Guo Ran died instantly.
Jiang Yuan summoned the tokens from their bodies into his hand.
The storage items they carried also returned to his hand.
After opening them and sweeping his divine sense through, he felt sowhat regretful: “What a pity, Guo Ran was teleported out. As a heaven genius, the valuable items he carried must have been nurous!”
As for the wealth of the other eight, Jiang Yuan was a bit disappointed after a quick glance.
They were all cultivators who had broken through the ridians, and the value of the items they carried was limited, adding up to less than twenty thousand lower-grade spiritual stones.
Although this would already be considered a fortune amongst those who had broken through the ridians,
For him, its value was limited.
Down there, a disciple from the Supre Mystery Sect was waving his arm and shouting: “Brother Jiang Yuan, I’m here!”
Jiang Yuan glanced at him and said indifferently, “Just stay put. I’m going to take out the last man.”
At that mont, an overwhelming voice echoed throughout the spirit sphere world.
“The Sunset Sect concedes. All disciples will be teleported out in three breaths. Please don’t leave any belongings in this world.”
Three breaths later.
Three beams of white light ca down in the spirit sphere world.
In an instant, the remaining three people were teleported out.
Outside.
Ling Feng watched the only remaining disciple of his sect, the corners of his eyes twitching involuntarily.
This Jiang Yuan, isn’t he a bit too ruthless?
He didn’t even leave a single survivor.
He quickly took a couple of deep breaths, suppressing the anger within him.
“Sect Master Lu, this spiritual vein is now yours. I take my leave!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he flicked his sleeve, turned around and walked away.
The others from the Sunset Sect followed him too.
A mont later, everyone from the Sunset Sect boarded a flying boat.
“Sect Master, why did you give up this mine so easily?”
Gongsun Zhi asked.
Ling Feng glanced at her, waved his hand to create a soundproof layer.
“In two or three years, there will be a big movent in the Qian Yuan Imperial Family. It’s better not to stir up trouble now. By then, all the resources of the Supre Mystery Sect will be ours. Let them use this spiritual stone vein for just a few years!”
Upon hearing this, Gongsun Zhi’s eyes narrowed, “Are you talking about the plan that the Human King has been preparing for many years?”
Ling Feng nodded slightly, “Exactly! Therefore, having a conflict with them now is aningless!”
“Besides, we shouldn’t underestimate the Supre Mystery Sect. If we really had a conflict with them, we wouldn’t gain any advantages!”
Upon hearing this, Gongsun Zhi could only nod slowly, then said, “What about Jiang Yuan? His growth rate is too fast. We must find a way to suppress him!”
“With this kind of growth rate, I’m afraid that even if the Supre Mystery Sect is destroyed, he will beco a nace in the future!”
Ling Feng also appeared thoughtful, after a long while, he said slowly, “This is a major concern, we should discuss it when we return ho!”
“Alright!” Gongsun Zhi could only nod in agreent.
On the other hand.
Lu Qingshan said to Jiang Yuan, “Well done!”
Jiang Yuan smiled, “As long as Sect Master is not upset about being too ruthless, I was afraid I might have gone too far and would cause conflict with Sunset Sect!”
Lu Qingshan shook his head with a smile, “We are neighbors with the Sunset Sect, countless conflicts have occurred secretly between us!”
“I even suspect that many of our outstanding disciples who suddenly died in accidents might have been the work of the Sunset Sect!”
“After all, the road of cultivation is fraught with endless struggles and battles for resources. With a hundred years of mortal life, who wouldn’t want immortality!”
Upon hearing the word ‘immortality’, Jiang Yuan curiously asked, “Sect Master, has anyone really achieved immortality in this world?”
Lu Qingshan shook his head, “Not even the immortals from ancient tis who had attained the Dao Fruit of True Immortality could achieve it.”
“After they condensed their immortal bodies, their lifespans were indeed much different from ours. It is said they could live for millions of years!”
“That’s why the Path of the Physique isn’t popular. Not because it’s not strong, but because it can’t make you an immortal! It can’t give you eternal life!”
“Moreover, it lacks detailed thods and secret techniques, and it demands terrifying talent!”
Lu Qingshan looked aningfully at Jiang Yuan.
Then he continued, “If not for Uncle Master Kong Nian being obsessed with the Path of the Physical Body, with his talent, he would have reached the Dharma Realm long ago!”
“Thinking about it now, it’s really a pity. Without such a strong cultivator to back us up, we always lack a bit of confidence!”
At this mont, Fifth Elder approached, looking at Lu Qingshan with grudge written all over his face.
“Sect Leader, you kept in the dark pretty well!”
“Jiang Yuan had already reached the Spiritual Sea Realm. Why didn’t you tell earlier? It caused such anxiety!”
Lu Qingshan burst into laughter, “Wasn’t I just trying to surprise you?”
“Thanks a lot! The surprise really worked, I was both shocked and delighted!” He said, full of resentnt.
Then he turned to Jiang Yuan, “You did great! I’ll work with the Sect Leader to get you as many resources as possible!”
“Thank you, Fifth Elder!” Jiang Yuan bowed his hand.
Lu Qingshan glanced at everyone, “The matter is settled. It’s ti to return to the sect!”
“Wait!” Jiang Yuan suddenly spoke.
Under Lu Qingshan’s puzzled gaze, he walked over to Mu Qianru.
She had been silent and almost invisible since she arrived here.
When she saw Jiang Yuan coming over, her eyes were filled with curiosity.
“You’re free now,” Jiang Yuan said indifferently.
