Avenue Stowaway

After the leader of the Weapon Sect returned to the hiding place from the Dragon King, the elders from each hall and dozens of powerful cultivators came to greet him. Among these people, except for the elders from each hall who were well-known to the disciples of the Weapon Sect, the others were powerful people who usually practiced in seclusion and would not easily show up in the Weapon Sect.

Above the inner hall disciples are the direct disciples, and the direct disciples are taught by those strong men who no longer care about the affairs of the sect and concentrate on cultivation. Moreover, two of these people have already reached the Mingshen realm and their strength is extremely terrifying.

The leader of the Qi Sect wore a purple robe and looked very young, but there were two strands of white hair on his temples that fluttered as he walked.

Thinking of what the Dragon King had just told him, Sect Leader Gu Han still felt a little unbelievable.

"Master, I wonder what the Dragon King wants to see you about at this time?" asked an old man with completely white hair and a hunched back. The old man's voice was a little hoarse and he looked like he was short of breath. But except for the Master Gu Han and another old man, no one else present dared to underestimate this man, because this hunched old man was one of the two powerful Mingshen realm masters.

"There are indeed some things." Gu Han nodded and said, "A disciple of my sect died in Qianlong Lake."

"what?"

"Even his disciples have started to die."

"We must destroy the Jinyang Sect. They are simply going too far. They used to kill inner-hall disciples, but this time they went straight for the physical disciples. They are too arrogant. The most infuriating thing is that they killed people and used such a crude method to put the blame on Qianlong Lake. Do they really think we are easy to fool?" said Huo Baifu, the elder of Lingbao Hall, angrily.

The others were also filled with anger. In the past few years, there might not be any inner-chamber disciples dying. But during this period, inner-chamber disciples were killed one after another. Now, even the direct disciples began to die.

"I wonder who the direct disciple who died this time was?" asked a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Realm who had been practicing in seclusion.

"It's Zhao Zhuo from the Zhao family." Gu Han said calmly.

Hearing that the deceased disciple was Zhao Zhuo, a middle-aged man with a full beard in the crowd gnashed his teeth. Zhao Zhuo was practicing with this spiritual transformation cultivator, and the sudden death of his disciple made this spiritual transformation cultivator extremely angry.

Sect Master Gu Han waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about this for now. We are already prepared to destroy the Jinyang Sect. They won't be able to stay alive for much longer. What I want to tell you is another weird thing."

"Strange things? Please tell me, Sect Master."

"Does anyone among you know the disciple Kong Fang?" Gu Han looked at the elders of each hall. Among the people present, only the elders of each hall were familiar with the disciples in the sect.

"Shua." The other elders' eyes turned to Elder Qing Fan of Huoyun Hall who was standing behind them.

Others may not know the disciple Kong Fang, but the elders of each hall have heard this name so many times that their ears are almost calloused. In the initial refining assessment, they judged that Kong Fang, who had the earth element talent, could not achieve great success in refining, and they were not optimistic about Kong Fang's path to refining. From then on, whenever Kong Fang achieved a little success, Elder Qing Fan would visit them one by one and proudly tell them about Kong Fang's achievements.

Once they made a mistake, Elder Qing Fan used this matter to make fun of them for a long time.

Every time they heard from Elder Qing Fan that Kong Fang had made some achievements, the faces of the elders of each hall turned dark. Therefore, the elders of each hall were very familiar with Kong Fang. They were even more familiar with him than the inner hall disciples they were in charge of.

At this time, hearing the Sect Master suddenly mention Kong Fang, the elders of each hall thought that it was not a good thing, so they all had a glimmer of expectation in their hearts, waiting to see Elder Qing Fan suffer a setback.

Elder Qing Fan came forward, bowed, and asked in confusion, "I wonder what Kong Fang did wrong to alarm the Sect Master?"

At this moment, Elder Qing Fan couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. He liked Kong Fang very much and didn't want anything to happen to him.

"He didn't do anything wrong." Gu Han shook his head and said, "Some time ago, when I gathered everyone, I told everyone that a baby dragon was stolen from Qianlong Lake. At that time, a cultivator with the talent of the gold element in the Spiritual Transformation Realm entangled the half-blood demon dragon that lost its baby, and asked his men to escape with the baby dragon first. The news I got from the Dragon King was that the baby dragon was rescued by a human cultivator. In fact, this person... is Kong Fang."

"The person who saved the young dragon was actually Kong Fang." The elders of each hall opened their mouths in surprise. They had always thought that the person who saved the young dragon was some mysterious and powerful person who was practicing in seclusion. They had never thought that the person would be a disciple of the Weapon Sect, not to mention that the person was actually a weak inner hall disciple like Kong Fang.

The elders of each hall knew very well that Kong Fang should have only reached the Soul Guiding Realm at that time. Entering Qianlong Lake with such a level of cultivation was simply seeking death, and he couldn't even protect himself, let alone save the young dragon.

But Kong Fang, an inner hall disciple in the Soul-Guiding Realm, actually did it. This made the elders of various halls feel like they were dreaming, otherwise how could such an exaggerated thing happen.

The other cultivators present were also quite surprised. Although they did not know Kong Fang's specific cultivation level, they knew that the most powerful inner hall disciple was at the level of the Spiritual Entry Realm. Because those who reached the Spiritual Ascension Realm would generally become direct disciples. Of course, if one could reach the Spiritual Transformation Realm, he would also have the hope of becoming an elder.

Let's not talk about why a little guy whose highest cultivation level is the spiritual realm would run to Qianlong Lake, but what is bizarre is that he actually saved the young son of a half-blood demon dragon. No matter how you look at it, it seems like the Dragon King is playing a joke on them, which is really hard for them to believe.

Elder Qing Fan was a little worried that Kong Fang had done something wrong, but after hearing what Sect Master Gu Han said, Elder Qing Fan was stunned for a moment, then a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face. If there hadn't been so many people present and the Sect Master was not there too, Elder Qing Fan would definitely have laughed a few times to vent his joy.

"Kong Fang is just a weak inner hall disciple, how could he suddenly run to Qianlong Lake?" The bearded cultivator suddenly asked. His disciple Zhao Zhuo also died in Qianlong Lake, which made him very sensitive to Qianlong Lake.

Hearing this, the others were stunned. The elders of each hall were also stunned. They were just shocked that Kong Fang saved the half-blood demon dragon's young son. They actually ignored such an important matter.

Gu Han glanced at the person who asked the question. His expression suddenly turned cold, and he spoke word by word: "Kong Fang was sent to Qianlong Lake by someone using a Thousand Miles Shrinking Earth Talisman."

The pupils of the slightly bearded monk in the Spiritual Transformation Realm suddenly shrank when he heard the Thousand Miles and Shrinking Earth Talisman.

The others were also shocked, and some even began to suspect that Zhao Yong, who died in Qianlong Lake that day, was related to Kong Fang. However, seeing the sect leader's furious expression, no one dared to speak at this time.

Gu Han looked cold and said, "Since I founded the Qi Sect, I have banned anyone in the sect from entering Qianlong Lake. But someone actually used the Thousand Miles Shrinking Talisman to send my Qi Sect disciples into Qianlong Lake. No matter what his intentions are, he dared to ignore my ban. Even if he didn't die in Kong Fang's hands, I would not let him go after I learned about this."

"If Kong Fang hadn't been so powerful and happened to have saved the young son of the Half-Blood Demon Dragon, it would be our Qi Sect that was at war with Qianlong Lake, instead of us and Qianlong Lake joining forces to deal with Jinyang Sect. Qianlong Lake's foundation is even deeper than our Qi Sect. Once the wrath of the Half-Blood Demon Dragon is aroused, you all know the consequences."

"So, no matter what Kong Fang did in the past, he has made great contributions to our Qi Sect. Therefore, the matter of Kong Fang ends here. No one is allowed to plot against him in the future. If I find out that some people are secretly dealing with Kong Fang, you will have to bear the consequences yourself." When Gu Han, the founder of the sect 20,000 years ago, showed his power, everyone present was silent.

You have to know that Gu Han is not just the founder of the sect, he is also the undisputed number one in the Weapon Sect. The cultivation of the Divine Realm is many times stronger than that of the Mingshen Realm, not to mention that most people present are only at the Hualing Realm.

Everyone then understood why Sect Leader Gu Han had singled out Kong Fang's matter for discussion. It turned out that he was taking the opportunity to warn some of them.

"Qing Fan, after this is over, you should pay more attention to Kong Fang, and try to satisfy him if he has any needs. Oh, by the way, you don't have to give him the Soul Refining Method anymore. This kid got a lot of benefits from the Dragon King, and he might not even like the Soul Refining Method you have, let alone the Soul Refining Method of the inner hall disciples." Gu Han turned and walked inside, and suddenly stopped after a few steps, "I don't want what happened today to be spread outside."

Everyone's heart tightened when they heard this. Although the sect leader seemed very kind at ordinary times, he could be extremely terrifying when he showed his power.

Elder Qingfan recalled what happened when he wanted to check Kong Fang's soul after he taught him the soul refining method. At that time, his soul power was directly forced out of Kong Fang's purple palace, and he himself was injured. Hearing the words of the sect leader Gu Han, Elder Qingfan finally understood the reason.

"Alright, everyone, adjust your state. The high-level leaders of Jinyang Sect will soon gather in the sect, and then it will be time for us to take action." Gu Han's voice came from afar, but it was filled with murderous intent.

Although Zhao Yong did not die at the hands of the Jinyang Sect, it is undeniable that the Jinyang Sect was indeed secretly instigating the Qi Sect and Qianlong Lake, wanting the two forces to fight to the death.

In fact, no one except the Zhao family cared about a small Zhao Yong. Even the Wu Qu elder of the Law Enforcement Hall had little expression on his face. Although a good disciple died, he still had many disciples, and he didn't want to anger the sect master.

In the crowd, the bearded cultivator in the Spiritual Transformation Realm had a flickering expression, with hesitation and a hint of ruthlessness in his look.

Today he suddenly lost his beloved disciple, which made him extremely angry. He originally thought that his opponent was from the Jinyang Sect.

But now, the object of his suspicion has changed.

"Zhao Yong died in Qianlong Lake, and his fellow clan member Zhao Zhuo also died in Qianlong Lake. Kong Fang happened to have done a favor to the Half-Blood Demon Dragon, and on the day of Zhao Zhuo's death, he suddenly alarmed the sect master. These things happened too much of a coincidence." A hint of ruthlessness flashed in the man's eyes.

……

After Kong Fang returned to Qi Sect, the news that he had broken through to the Spiritual Realm spread like wildfire. Many people's first reaction to hearing the news was to not believe it, but after several inquiries to confirm the authenticity of the news, the entire Qi Sect was shocked.

It had not been long since Kong Fang refined a low-grade acquired spiritual treasure, and then he became the first person in ten years to be actively invited by the Weapon Demon to join.

Just when everyone thought Kong Fang would be silent for a while, he unexpectedly broke through to the Spiritual Realm at an extremely terrifying speed. These things happened to Kong Fang one after another, and many people were stunned.

The terrifying increase in strength made many people privately say that Kong Fang was already the number one disciple in the inner hall. Once this news spread, some disciples who had been promoted to the inner hall for many years and whose cultivation had entered the spiritual realm could no longer sit still. They gathered on the mountain where the Fire Cloud Hall was located with great momentum.
