Seeing Zun Yiling's nagging expression, Chen Tiancang asked curiously:
"What are you doing?"
Zun Yiling frowned and replied:
"I'm looking for Guo Xun. This guy promised me that he would leave seclusion early. I don't see anyone else now. It seems he is still in seclusion!"
"Retreat! Why is he in retreat? The Heavenly Dragon Slaying Conference is about to begin. Why is he still in retreat!"
"It's okay. I've already told him before that if he doesn't come out early, I will drag him out directly."
"Do you know where he is in retreat?"
"Of course, he is in retreat in my cave. I will come back as the leader."
Chen Tiancang nodded. He did not expect that Guo Xun would retreat in the Great Elder's cave. It seemed that the Great Elder really liked Guo Xun.
After Zun Yiling left, Hong Lie came back not long after with a look of helplessness.
Hong Lie thought he would be scolded, but he didn't expect that Chen Tiancang didn't even say a word when he saw him.
Hong Lie is confused now!
Basically everyone has arrived, except for Guo Xun. This means that everyone including the leader is waiting for Guo Xun.
Hong Lie would definitely be scolded if he didn't find Guo Xun. Why is there no movement at all now?
Hong Lie mustered up the courage to come to Chen Tiancang and said:
"Head..."
As soon as Hong Lie opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Zhang Tiancang's words.
"You don't have to look for him anymore. Guo Xun is in retreat with the great elder. The great elder has already gone to find Guo Xun!"
Hong Lie quickly shut his mouth, thinking that no wonder he hadn't seen Guo Xun in the past few days. It turned out that he had gone to retreat.
But the timing of this retreat is too wrong. How can I retreat in just a few days? Isn’t it over as soon as I close my eyes and open them again?
Now that he has so many people waiting for him, he will probably be scolded later!
Hong Lie shook his head and sighed, hoping that Guo Xun would take care of himself!
Zun Yi Ling activated the teleportation array and came to his retreat room.
Zun Yi Ling knows that problems can easily occur if people are disturbed during retreat, and may even cause qi and blood to flow backward and get injured.
So he said he would drag Guo Xun out, but in fact he was cautious for fear that something would really go wrong.
Zun Yi Ling drove the formation to open the stone wall. The moment the cave appeared, Zun Yi Ling discovered that there was a dazzling golden light shining at the end of the cave.
Zun Yiling's eyes widened, and the spiritual energy that was originally abundant in them could no longer be felt.
Zun Yiling was curious about what happened, so he quickened his pace and soon arrived at the retreat room.
The retreat room was illuminated by dazzling golden light. Zun Yiling covered his eyes with his hands and looked down the steps, and saw a person sitting cross-legged in the middle of the spiritual lake.
This person is Guo Xun!
But the strange thing is that he clearly saw Guo Xun, but he couldn't feel Guo Xun's presence.
Guo Xun was like a ball of air, not emitting any breath.
This is obviously impossible. Even an ordinary person has a faint aura on his body. Through this aura, he can be judged to be an ordinary person.
This is especially true for cultivators. No matter how well they restrain themselves, they will never be as breathless as a dead thing.
Guo Xun is even more outrageous now. In Zun Yiling's eyes, he is a complete person, but in his consciousness, there is nothing, as if there is nothing!
Zun Yiling opened his mouth silently and stared at Guo Xun, who was covered in golden light.
At this moment, there was already a storm in his heart.
What kind of technique is Guo Xun practicing? It’s so miraculous!
Only then did he notice that Guo Xun was sitting cross-legged on the spirit-swallowing ice in the center of the spiritual lake.
What's even more weird is that the swallowing ice is wrapped in pitch black, and its volume is less than one-tenth of its original size.
"What! Guo Xun can actually absorb the spirit-swallowing ice! How is this possible?"
Zun Yiling rubbed his eyes frantically, he couldn't believe what he was seeing.
However, it turns out that what he saw was true.
Zun Yiling quickly walked down the steps, wanting to take a closer look.
When he got to the Spirit Lake, he noticed that the Spirit Lake was already dry!
Zunyi Ling was stunned.
When he first came in, his attention was always on Guo Xun, and he didn't notice that Linghu had been completely absorbed by Guo Xun.
No wonder the spiritual energy of this retreating force was so thin that it was all absorbed by Guo Xun.
Zun Yiling couldn't imagine how Guo Xun absorbed so much spiritual energy. What secrets did he have? What was this dark thing?
Zun Yiling circled around Guo Xun, really not knowing what to do.
Is it really okay to interrupt Guo Xun’s retreat now?
Zun Yiling is very confused!
When Zun Yiling was hesitating whether to wake up Guo Xun, Guo Xun suddenly opened his eyes.
The golden light in his eyes flashed, which startled Zun Yi Ling.
Guo Xun put away his devouring power, stood up, took a slight step forward, and came to Zun Yiling's side.
Before Zun Yiling could react, he found Guo Xun standing in front of him, and he was immediately startled.
"Guo Xun, you..."
Guo Xun looked a little embarrassed and said:
"Great Elder, I'm so sorry, I... accidentally absorbed more than half of your spirit-swallowing ice!"
Zun Yiling came back to his senses, glanced at the swallowing ice, looked a little strange, and asked:
"How is it possible for you to absorb the spirit-swallowing ice? What on earth is your kid doing in seclusion? Why can't I see through your kid's cultivation?"
Guo Xunqian laughed twice.
"The technique I practice is special. I didn't expect it to be able to absorb the spirit-swallowing ice."
Zunyi Ling nodded in surprise, not knowing what to say.
Guo Xun thought of a reason and excused it, but he didn't expect Zun Yiling to believe it.
"Guo Xun, have you broken through the realm?"
Guo Xun secretly thought, "It's not good. Could it be that Zun Yiling discovered that he was in the period of transcending tribulation!"
"Did you break through to the third level of the out-of-body stage?"
"ah!"
Guo Xun was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Zun Yiling to say the words "the third level of the orifice stage!"
Guo Xun nodded quickly.
"As expected, the Great Elder has a keen eye and can see through my cultivation level at a glance. Yes, I am in retreat this time to break through to the third level of the out-of-body stage!"
"Okay, you kid really didn't disappoint me. The boss will be shocked when he sees you later."
Zun Yiling was a little excited, thinking that there was nothing wrong with the loss of his Spirit Lake and Swallowing Ice.
This time the Heavenly Dragon Slaying Conference, the Yantian Sword Sect will definitely be a blockbuster!
Guo Xun quickly used the secret technique of deceiving the sky to control his cultivation to the third level of the out-of-body stage, and followed the great elder to the spaceship.
As soon as Guo Xung appeared, all the elders except Murong Hanyan looked at him in shock.
Chen Tiancang couldn't help but come to his side.
"Guo Xun, have you broken through the realm?"
Guo Xun nodded.
"Reporting to the leader, this junior has lived up to his mission and has just broken through the third level of the out-of-body stage!"
"Okay, okay, I thought you wouldn't gain much from this retreat, but I didn't expect you to break through to the third level of the out-of-body stage, hahaha!"
Zhang Tiancang's hearty voice attracted the attention of everyone on the spacecraft.
The younger generation, including Ji Jihan, opened their eyes wide.
Guo Xun actually broke through to the third level of the out-of-body stage!
