Chapter 37: The Changes of the Sanqing Peak. Everyone Was Shocked

Seeing that everyone was confused, Shen Tianyi shook his head. They were like children that could not be taught.

“Not to mention our sect, even the local big powers like the Mystic Light Pavilion, Ci Hang Hall, and the Flying Feather Sect did not have the chance. At most, they were just there to accompany the others. However, they would not spare any effort to participate.”

“Think about it. We can rope in alchemists from other places!”

Everyone’s expressions instantly became extremely interesting. Wonderful, why did they not think of this?

No wonder Shen Tianyi was able to ascend to the position of Sect Leader. Other than being powerful, he also had a long-term vision. One had to know that the most powerful alchemist in the sect was currently Wu Huaqing, and he was only a grade 5 alchemist.

With the appearance of the Flawless pill, it was bound to attract alchemists from all over the world. It could be said that it was a gathering of talents, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

“Sect Leader is trying to say that we can use this opportunity to rope in these alchemists and build a good relationship with them. If we can rope in alchemists above grade 5, it will be of great benefit to our sect.”

“That’s right. Even if we can’t rope them in, we can still spend spirit stones and get them to help refine pills. It won’t be a wasted trip. Presumably, there are quite a few sects that have this idea.”

In the past, although there were alchemists in the capital’s Dao Conference, they were in the minority. It was not their home ground, and most of them had followed their sects there, so it was inevitable that they would have some misgivings. It was impossible to openly poach someone.

However, now, it was not certain. After all, with so many alchemists gathered in the capital, other than those who had received the sect’s offerings, there were still some who had not joined the sect’s forces. This was a rare opportunity for them.

Shen Tianyi’s words enlightened everyone.

“Moreover, such a grand auction is rare. It’s also good to go out and let these disciples broaden their horizons.”

The Sect Elders agreed with him. “Let’s not waste any time. Let’s go.”

However, Shen Tianyi looked around and found that there seemed to be fewer people.

“Gu Xi isn’t here yet?”

Everyone looked at each other. Gu Xi was indeed the one who was missing. “Hurry up and send someone to inform him.”

Thinking of how Gu Xi often went into seclusion, Shen Tianyi hesitated for a moment. “Forget it. You guys wait for a moment. I’ll go and see what’s going on.”

However, when he arrived at Sanqing Peak, he was dumbfounded. Even the elders who followed him were stunned on the spot. They all turned to look at Shen Tianyi at the same time as they asked in unison, “Sect Leader, are you sure this is Sanqing Peak?”

Shen Tianyi was sure that this was the right place and that it was not an illusion. He hesitated and said, “Yes, but earlier, it was clearly–”

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the few elders beside him.

“Sect Leader, you’re too generous. You want this personal disciple so badly that you gave up an entire mountain and the Treasure Pavilion. Giving it all to him is a big deal.”

Shen Tianyi said, “I’m not, I’m not. Don’t talk nonsense.”

It was not strange that they would have such thoughts. The original Sanqing Peak was lively and had ample spiritual energy. Its location was remote. In addition, it was a mountain under the Sect Leader’s name, so very few people stepped foot there.

However, looking at it now, the entire mountain peak was shrouded in a vast cloud and mist. It was faintly discernible. One could even see the divine bridge that spanned across the sky, connecting to the horizon. The cranes shuttled back and forth, and it was as if it was a fairyland. The spiritual energy here was so dense that it was overflowing almost everywhere.

“That’s right.” One of the elders seemed to have thought of something. “Previously, Elder Wu told me that he borrowed a thousand-year-old Pine. I think that all the Peak Masters contributed to all of this.”

Shen Tianyi knew that it was Gu Xi’s doing. However, he could not figure it out. Even if all the Peak Masters were plundered, and even if he plundered the sect’s Treasure Pavilion and his personal stash, the spiritual energy would not reach such a level.

There must be some other secret.

“Why are we still standing here? Let’s go in and take a look.”

One of the elders said as he was about to go in, but Shen Tianyi had a subtle feeling in his heart.

The spiritual energy here was so dense, so it was strange that nobody noticed it. There was only one reason, and that was because there was a powerful array formation around, so no one noticed it. They only knew about it after they arrived here.

“Be careful! There might be a powerful array formation here.”

However, it was already too late. The elder had already stretched out his hand. He said with a smile, “Sect Leader, you are too cautious. No matter how powerful the array formation is, it is only set up by a disciple. With so many of us here, how can we be afraid?”

In the next second, the smile froze on his face, and all the scenery around him disappeared. Even Shen Tianyi and the others were nowhere to be seen. It was as if he had been transported to an empty space.

“Sect Leader, where did you all go?”

The moment he finished speaking, a giant fox suddenly appeared. It was so huge that it could swallow the sun and moon. He had never seen such a big fox before.

The sun was only the size of a sesame seed, and the fox swallowed it in one bite. The world was instantly plunged into darkness, and everything was lost. It was as if he had returned to the chaotic period when Pangu created the world.

An indescribable panic rose, and he had no intention of resisting at all. All he could do was wait for death to come. Perhaps this would be the best gift for him.

At that moment, Shen Tianyi looked at the elder who had suddenly closed his eyes. He was baffled.

The elder did not trigger any powerful restriction, and neither did any attacks appear. Everything was calm and peaceful.

“Was I wrong about this array?”

Looking at the elder who suddenly closed his eyes, Shen Tianyi was confused, “Elder Zhao, What’s wrong? Wake up.”
