I have been bound in a forbidden place for five hundred years. Why are you crying when I am a casual

"Damn it, Gu Xiu, this vessel of fortune, is still alive and well, and even seems to be plotting with the old Sword Saint. What should we do about our next plan? Can we still proceed?"

While Gu Xiu was still discussing what he knew with Chu Xun in the Sealed Heart Realm, at this very moment, on the Sword Enlightenment Platform of the Tianyuan Sword Sect, the old sword saint who was constantly leading this sword offering ceremony had already pushed the entire ceremony more than halfway through.

Meanwhile, the five supreme beings responsible for assisting the old sword saint, though positioned differently, had already begun to exchange information frantically:

"Master Wugou, what should we do next?"

"We agreed that this person with great fortune should die first to prevent the fortune within him from activating. What do you think we should do now?"

"This fortune is so powerful that we can even get through a situation like this. In this case, if we really attack the old sword saint, will there be unexpected problems, or even cause us to suffer the consequences?"

"..."

On the surface, the fact that these supreme beings joined forces to assist the Heavenly Abyss Sword Sect in its sword-worship ceremony seems to be due to an invitation from the old sword saint. However, they were not so kind as to be so; they all had their own ulterior motives.

Their purpose has been clear from beginning to end.

Kill the Sword Saint, destroy the Sword Sect!

Their target is, after all, the number one person and the number one sect in the world, which will certainly not be easy to achieve, so they have made a comprehensive plan for this purpose.

However, there is a hidden danger in this plan.

Gu Xiu.

His strength was no match for the Supreme Beings. Even though there were many rumors about him, he was just a cultivator in the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm. They dared to plot against even the Sword Saint, so they naturally wouldn't be afraid of a mere Gu Xiu.

What truly made the supreme beings wary was the immense fortune that even immortals would fight over on Gu Xiu's body.

Few people can clearly explain the specifics of "good fortune," but they have all heard that those with good fortune are always able to obtain various opportunities and overcome difficulties in almost every way imaginable.

Their goal was to kill the Sword Saint, and they couldn't afford any accidents. Therefore, in their plan, separating Gu Xiu from the Sword Saint, or even killing Gu Xiu, was the best option.

but now……

The plan has gone wrong. The plan, which should have been foolproof, has been riddled with flaws. The Blessing Container, which should have been the enemy of the world, is now perfectly fine and is even sitting cross-legged with its eyes closed on the Enlightenment Platform.

"Everyone, we've come this far, are you all planning to give up now?" Facing the discussion, Zen Master Wugou frowned, but still asked.

These words made everyone look resentful.

give up?

Even at this point, they gave up attacking the Sword Saint and the opportunity to overthrow the mountain above Haoyu Supreme because of Gu Xiu?

"Actually, there is no need for you to worry too much. Fu Yuan is indeed hard to guard against. This time it can be seen that those who harbor ill will towards Gu Xiu and want to put him to death will always fail due to various unexpected problems."

“But our real target has never been Gu Xiu.”

"According to the information I have gathered, Ziwei Yuan, as the most powerful force in the Three Enclosures of the Sea of ​​Sin, was actually about to break through the restrictions of the Longevity Cliff and enter the Vast Universe Realm before the Academy made its move. It was only because the Sword Saint stopped it that it was temporarily suppressed."

"The Sword Saint is indeed strong, but even if he is the Sword Saint, he is still powerless to stop the strongest of the Three Enclosures of the Sea of ​​Sin. In fact, he is already seriously injured and at his limit. You should have all noticed this before, right?"

Upon hearing this, the eyes of the other four supreme beings flickered slightly.

Master Wugou is right. When the Sword Saint arrived, everyone's attention was focused on him. Although the Sword Saint was still as powerful as ever, even the Heavenly God Lord's test was crushed by the Sword Saint.

But in reality, they could vaguely sense that the Sword Saint's aura was a bit off.

He was seriously injured, and his strength was definitely not at its peak!

“Even though he was injured, he still possesses strength beyond that of ordinary people. As we could see from our exchange just now, if he wanted to kill me, it would probably only take him less than a hundred moves.” The Heavenly God Lord hesitated, for he had truly felt the terror of the Sword Saint.

These words made the other three hesitate. After all, this was the Sword Saint. Who knew if the world's number one man's desperate counterattack would drag them down with him?

"Therefore, we need to work together even more." Zen Master Wugou remained calm.

"The Sword Saint is seriously injured, yet he still wants to stop the Three Realms of Evil from entering the world. The reduction in the number of Sword Enlightenment Platforms this time shows that he wants to use the power of the Heavenly Abyss Immortal Sword to help him achieve his goal. This means that he will have to be fully focused on the upcoming Sword Sacrifice Ceremony and cannot be distracted in the slightest. This is our opportunity."

"According to our initial plan, no matter how strong he is, he can only surrender. As for the desperate counterattack that you are worried about, there is no need to worry about it. There are quite a few people in this world who want to kill the Sword Saint."

Upon hearing this, the supreme beings couldn't help but twitch their eyelids slightly, their gazes toward Zen Master Wugou filled with a hint of apprehension.

The Western Desert Buddhist sect has grand ambitions, and cooperating with them is tantamount to seeking help from a tiger.

But fortunately.

At least for now, they share the same goal: to bring down Haoyu's number one figure.

Some things.

Only with the death of the Sword Saint can it be completed more effectively.

"What are you all waiting for?" Just then, the old sword saint, who was still presiding over the great formation, spoke up: "I beg your help..."

"Sacrifice the sword!"

The five supreme beings exchanged glances, their eyes flashing with malice. They immediately moved to the Sword Saint's side, their hands constantly forming hand seals to assist him in completing the complex sword-worshiping ceremony.

“I still think that keeping Gu Xiu around is a disaster.” Huang Chao, the Supreme of Yuanhua Holy Land, was a little uneasy. He looked at Gu Xiu, who was still sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, and said, “This boy always brings endless frights. I always feel uneasy with him here.”

"If all else fails, should we kill him first?" Jin Ye Zhenren asked hesitantly.

They were all old acquaintances of Gu Xiu, and their hatred was already out in the open. Especially after hearing the news that Gu Xiu was getting stronger and stronger, others might just marvel at his unparalleled talent, but these old acquaintances really felt uneasy.

Gu Xiu's existence is a hidden danger.

Only by killing Gu Xiu can the hidden danger be eliminated.

Zen Master Wugou quickly advised, "You two should not be distracted for now. The power of Fuyuan is unpredictable. Our three previous failures have already shown that this boy is definitely not simple. If we attack him now, it may cause unnecessary trouble."

Seeing that the two were still somewhat unwilling, Zen Master Wugou simply spoke up again to remind them:

"If any of you wish to take action against him, you may do so after the Sword Saint is executed. Moreover, our Western Desert Buddhist sect has been investigating the mystery of the Source of Fortune and now we have gained some understanding of it."

"If you all trust this humble monk, why don't we wait until the matter of the Sword Saint is settled, and then our Buddhist sect will personally take action to cripple Gu Xiu's cultivation, remove his tendons and bones, and hand him over to you two?"

Upon hearing this, even though the two supreme rulers, the Imperial Dynasty and the Golden Leaf, still had some reservations, they temporarily set aside their concerns. Instead, they focused wholeheartedly on using their respective methods to genuinely "help" the Sword Saint complete the Sword Offering Ceremony.

What they need to do is actually very simple.

The Sword Saint will use the great formation to extract the power of the Heavenly Abyss Immortal Sword, and then weaken and refine this power. During this process, the Sword Saint will begin to preach, allowing the cultivators on the Sword Enlightenment Platform to gain opportunities while also using their will to wear down the power of the Heavenly Abyss.

This process is no secret; it's been the same every year.

The difference this year is that the Sword Saint will not refine these powers as soon as possible, but will try to guide them to the exit of the Three Enclosures Sea of ​​Sin in the Cliff of Immortality. This means that there will be a process in which the Sword Saint will be suppressed by both the power of the Heavenly Abyss Immortal Sword and the power of the Three Enclosures Sea of ​​Sin.

No one can say for sure how strong this suppression is, but it is certain that even a sword saint as strong as him would be weakened to the extreme and unable to move in an instant once suppressed.

This suppression is their opportunity!

All we have to do now is wait for this opportunity to come!

Just as they had expected, under the expectant gaze of Zen Master Wugou, the power within the Heavenly Abyss Immortal Sword began to be continuously extracted and temporarily stored within the Sword Saint's body, suppressing him.

Master Wugou observed this process, and the tension in his heart gradually eased.

Ok!

Ok!

Everything is proceeding according to plan, and no unexpected events have occurred!

Next…

A ruthless glint flashed in Zen Master Wugou's eyes. He turned to look at the other four supreme beings, and was about to give the order when...

An unexpected accident occurred.

Above the sky, the sound of the Great Dao Bell resounded, and then a golden beam of light suddenly pierced through the clouds in the endless deep space, descending downwards and heading towards a certain figure on the Sword Enlightenment Platform.

This is……

The Great Dao favors them; are some people establishing divine officials?

Those present were all knowledgeable, and they immediately recognized that this was a strange phenomenon brought about by the establishment of divine officials after the Nascent Soul cultivator opened up the divine palace.

Instinctively, everyone's eyes turned to that person.

At just one glance, everyone was stunned.

Gu Xiu...

Is a priest being established?
