Traveling through the Immortal Realm: Starting from Becoming a Top-Level Furnace Cauldron

Chapter 316 The Silver Kun Clan Takes Action

Lu Yuguan's head was shocked: "What?"

"I should have thought of this earlier..."

Nangong Luo forced a smile, "Master is not a human at all, he has been a fairy beast from the beginning to the end."

Countless fragments flashed through Lu Yuguan's mind—Bian Xianghe's silver Kun body, Seventh Junior Brother's inhuman spiritual power fluctuations, and the alchemists who were used as sacrifices...

Everything suddenly made sense.

"What do they want to do?" Lu Yuguan asked in a deep voice.

"Holy tree..."

Nangong Luo grabbed Lu Yuguan's collar and said, "They want to drain the essence of the Holy Tree... The entire Dan Sect will collapse..."

"Senior Brother Qingjue is still organizing the resistance..."

"But it won't last long."

The ground shook again.

"You heal your wounds first, then go and help," Lu Yuguan said quickly, "Do you know where Miao'er is being held?"

Nangong Luo nodded: "In the upper cell."

Lu Yuguan helped Nangong Luo up. Just as they reached the cell door, heavy footsteps suddenly came from the end of the corridor.

A tall figure walked out of the shadows, his silver hair glowing coldly under the torch.

"Hanquan?"

Lu Yuguan's pupils suddenly shrank.

The woman from the Yinkun tribe was still wearing a blue dress, with sunken pupils in her eyes and a grin on her lips.

"Little mermaid..."

Hanquan's voice echoed, "We meet again."

Lu Yuguan protected Nangong Luo behind him, and a wisp of chaotic fire quietly condensed at his fingertips.

"Don't come over here," Lu Yuguan shouted, "or I'll die with you!"

"Perish together with a Nascent Soul Stage expert?" Han Quan chuckled. "Little mermaid, you have a nice idea."

Before he could finish his words, Hanquan suddenly jumped up, and his five fingers turned into sharp claws and went straight for Lu Yuguan's throat.

Lu Yuguan was well prepared, and the chaotic fire instantly formed a wall of fire in front of him.

"go!"

He pushed Nangong Luo away and rolled sideways to the other side.

Hanquan's sharp claws scratched across the wall of fire, making a "hissing" burning sound.

She withdrew her hand in pain, looking angrily at her burned fingertips: "Damn it! How dare a mere mermaid hurt me?"

Lu Yuguan didn't give the other party time to think.

He summoned the golden harp, and the chaotic fire attached to the sound blade shot out.

"Domain·Same Sound!"

Han Quan dodged hastily, but was still hit by several sonic blades, leaving black marks on his skin.

"Nangong Luo, lead the way!"

Lu Yuguan took the opportunity to rush to Nangong Luo, and the two ran wildly along the corridor.

Hanquan's angry roar was heard behind him, followed by the violent shaking of the entire dungeon.

When Lu Yuguan looked back, he saw that Hanquan had already revealed part of his original form.

The lower half of its body turned into the tail of a silver Kun, and every time it slapped, the stone wall would crack.

"left!"

Nangong Luo pointed to a fork in the road and said, "There are stairs leading to the upper level!"

As soon as the two turned into the left passage, they ran into three Danzong disciples head-on.

Just as Lu Yuguan was about to attack, Nangong Luo quickly stopped him: "Master Xia Dan, don't do it, we are on the same side!"

The leading disciple's face was covered in blood, and he was obviously relieved when he saw Nangong Luo.

"Senior Sister Nangong!"

"Senior Brother Qingjue asked us to come find you."

Nangong Luo asked anxiously: "What's the situation now?"

"The Yinkun Clan has already invaded the main hall!"

"Where are the other alchemists?" Lu Yuguan asked.

"Most of them are still imprisoned in the east cell," the disciple replied, "but there is one maid who has been taken to the Holy Tree Altar..."

Lu Yuguan's head tightened: "When did it happen?"

"Just half an hour ago," another disciple added, "Seventh Senior Brother... no, that traitor personally escorted her."

Lu Yuguan clenched his fists, digging his nails deep into his palms.

He turned to Nangong Luo and said, "You go and save people first. I'll go find Miao'er."

"no!"

Nangong Luo grabbed his arm and said, "The altar is the most dangerous place right now. Master... Bian Xianghe must be there!"

"That's why I have to go."

Lu Yuguan broke free from Nangong Luo's hand, "Miao'er is innocent, I can't abandon her."

"She's just a maid," Nangong Luo said anxiously, "Do you really care about her so much?"

Lu Yuguan shouted, "You don't understand!"

"Xia Yuan!"

"Everyone is in danger now, do you understand?"

Nangong Luo was about to persuade him again when the ground suddenly began to shake again.

In the distance, there was a terrible sound of trees breaking, followed by bursts of wailing.

"Holy tree..."

The Danzong disciples' faces turned pale, "They are harming the sacred tree!"

Lu Yuguan no longer hesitated and turned to run towards the direction of the sound.

"Nangong Luo!"

"Save the others and evacuate immediately!"

"If I'm not back in an hour, don't wait any longer!"

After passing through the intricate passages, Lu Yuguan finally arrived at the dungeon exit.

Pushing open the heavy iron door, the scene before him made him gasp for breath—

The alchemy furnaces that were originally suspended in the air fell down one after another.

Most of the magnificent Dan Sect's main hall has collapsed.

In the sky.

Dozens of silver Kuns shuttled through the clouds, and the spiritual light emitted from their mouths poured down like a rainstorm, leaving behind charred holes with every blow.

And at the center of all this, the so-called towering holy tree was wrapped in a layer of silver light net.

Countless cracks appeared on the tree trunk, and golden sap flowed out, condensing into a dazzling golden crystal in mid-air.

"Those are the origins of the sacred tree?"

"Such a vast amount of spiritual energy! No wonder the Silver Kun Clan harbored evil intentions!"

Lu Yuguan murmured.

His gaze followed the trunk down, and finally he saw Miao'er's figure on the altar at the base of the sacred tree.

The girl was tied to a stone pillar with iron chains, and Bian Xianghe and his seventh junior brother stood beside her.

What shocked Lu Yu even more was that there were more than a dozen unconscious people lying around the altar. Judging from their clothes, they were all alchemists abducted from various continents.

Their wrists were cut, and blood flowed along the grooves on the altar to the center, forming a strange formation.

"Damn it!"

"How could this be?"

Lu Yuguan was extremely anxious.

At this moment, Bian Xianghe suddenly looked up, and his silver-white vertical pupils accurately locked onto Lu Yuguan's position.

Even though they were hundreds of meters apart, Lu Yuguan could still feel the suffocating pressure.

"Young friend Xia Yuan——"

Bian Xianghe's voice rang directly in his mind.

"Now that you're here..."

"Why not watch the last moments of the sacred tree up close?"

An invisible force instantly bound Lu Yuguan's body, lifted him into the air, and dragged him towards the altar.

Lu Yuguan struggled desperately, but was unable to break free from this force.

"Son!"

Miao Er saw Lu Yuguan and cried out in despair, "Run away, don't worry about me!"

Boom!

Lu Yuguan was thrown heavily to the edge of the altar, right next to the unconscious Qingjue.

The eldest senior brother of Danzong was in a very bad condition. He had a penetrating wound in his chest and his breathing was so weak that it was almost unnoticeable.

"Qing Jue?"

Lu Yuguan quickly stretched out his finger and put it close to his nose to make sure he was still breathing.

"Don't worry, as we are master and disciple, I will leave his body intact."

Bian Xianghe said slowly.

Lu Yuguan looked at him warily: "Stinky old man, aren't you afraid of retribution for doing this?"
