Taking out the item, Gu Chen looked at it and said, "This token is the identity token of the Immortal South Region Sect. As long as you destroy it, the other items will naturally belong to Brother Zi Ming."

I picked up the token and looked at it. It was just a piece of wood, but there were some fluctuations of Spiritual Energy. It should be the ability to confirm one's identity. With a flick of my finger, the token disintegrated into pieces and scattered on the ground.

He took a look at the storage ring. Its design was extremely ordinary, so he shouldn't be able to tell that it belonged to the Southern Tang Immortal Sect. Gu Chen clearly saw my awkwardness, he smiled and said, "Brother Zi Ming is in a difficult situation, could this ring be recognized by the Southern Wasteland Immortal Sect?"

I nodded my head, "Indeed, I won't hide the truth from you, Brother Gu. I come from a small sect, so I have never seen such a convenient item like the Universe Ring. That's why I feel it is such a pity to give it up."

"Brother Zi Ming, there's no need to make things difficult for us. Although there aren't many rings, they're still quite ordinary. They can be sold in ordinary trading centers, so you can relax and use them."

I nodded before putting it on my left pinky and turning to look at the few pieces of broken stone.

"This is a spirit stone, and it contains spirit energy. Outside, it is used for cultivation, pill refining, and trading. Just take it, Brother Zi Ming. When there's a chance in the future, it will naturally be useful."

It was as if this was the first time a countryside boy had seen something new in the city. Gu Chen saw through my distress and quickly changed the topic, "Brother Zi Ming, you are very strong, how about you let me recommend you to me after I complete my mission and join my Empyrean Terminus Sect?"

I shook my head. "Thank you, Brother Gu, for your good intentions. However, I still have some private matters that I must take care of. I'll take over after I'm done here." I wonder, what is Brother Gu's mission? "

"This..."

"If Brother Gu is in a difficult situation, there's no need to tell me."

Gu Chen forced a smile and said, "It's not that I'm not willing to tell you, but my status is low. I've only received orders to go to the valley and check if there are any differences. I don't know anything else."

I nodded and pretended to look up to the sky. "It is already getting late. Brother Gu still has a mission to complete. I won't be bothering you any longer."

Gu Chen nodded, "I've been delayed by Zhang Tian for so long, I really should take my leave. Brother Zi Ming, I will never forget the grace of saving my life!" "See you later!"

"En, until we meet again!"

Looking at the departing figure of Gu Chen, I moved my body and left this place of conflict. I arrived at a remote forest.

Holding Zhang Tong's long sword and my hidden blade in my hand, I became extremely excited, with a thought, both of them disappeared, then instantly reappeared in my hands. After playing with them for a long time, I was satisfied and placed everything I had into my Universe Ring.

With a flick of my finger, Spiritual Energy wrapped around the blood vein. Seeing that the blood vein was still struggling, I thought for a moment before an idea came into my mind.

However, I need to leave a path of retreat for myself. If I annihilate the White Jade Sect and the Sky Sect, these two dogs that belong to the Southern Immortal Sect, no matter what the reason is, their masters will always come looking for trouble with me. And Gu Chen, who happened to appear out of the blue, as a member of the Great Celestial Sect of the Supreme Sects, if nothing unexpected happens, it will be my best safeguard.

After staying in the mortal world for another two days, I considered whether it was time to return, so I returned to the White Jade Gate unhurriedly. As for the Universe Ring in my hand, I had already found a craftsman in the town to change its appearance to that of a normal ring.

Pu Xuan's old face was bright red, his eyes were squinting, and his smile was present all the time. It seemed that he had been feeling extremely comfortable during this period of time. When he saw me return, he did not say anything.

In the midst of my confusion, some of my fellow apprentices told me that Pu Xuan had told the Sect Leader about the increase in my strength and the attitude Shen Tianlan had towards us. When the Sect Leader heard this, he praised us greatly and gave Pu Xuan a few medicinal pellets.

No wonder this old man is so happy, so it turns out that he is relying on me to obtain benefits. This won't do, I'll have to ask for some pills later …

After all, ever since I came here with Chen Ziming's identity, I have never seen him before. I wonder what he looks like, and how high his cultivation is.

After staying in the White Jade Sect for a few days, Pu Xuan came over with a smile and gave me some pills. He also gave me the Heaven's Heart Pill and said a lot of nonsense.

In the face of this problem, I thought about it, and then thought about it. Considering that after marriage, due to the reason of Lan Yun, we probably won't have much time alone, and we also have to plan on how to join the sword faction to overturn the Sky Sect, I don't have much time left. Anyway, there's still an entire three months' time, so I might as well use this time period to seize this opportunity.

When Pu Xuan heard that I wasn't going to wait for the Sect Leader to lead me, but wanted to try it out tomorrow, he immediately became serious. He told me many things and even told me about his own experiences before heading off to report to the Sect Leader.

The next day, Pu Xuan brought me to the Ancestral Hall with a solemn expression. In front of the Ancestral Hall, there was a pile of spirit tablets, a blood-red stone tablet, and a jade slip.

"Zi Ming, when a drop of your blood is placed on this jade slip, you can close your eyes and meditate. Master will be there to protect you."

My heart tightened. There was still one more drop of blood? Back then, from Chen Ziming's memories, I had learned that when one became an inner disciple, everyone would swear an oath in the ancestral hall that they would never betray the law, and a drop of their blood would be dropped to merge with the Blood Stele. It was similar to becoming the symbol of a disciple of the White Jade Sect. But now, I am not the real Chen Ziming. The Great Deception Extermination Art can only change my appearance and aura, but it cannot change my bloodline!

"Master, what should we do if someone from our sect isn't watching us with blood?"

Pu Xuan was startled as he frowned, "I don't know either. In all these years, I don't think anyone has come here to peek. If it weren't for our sect, we wouldn't have known about the existence of this jade slip."

I was looking forward to it in my heart. I only hoped that those who weren't from the White Jade Sect would be able to see it with a drop of their blood.

"Master, I want to meditate on it by myself. It's better if you go back, nothing will happen to me." I'm afraid that Pu Xuan will be around. If anything happens, I won't even have a chance to escape.

"Go back?" Pu Xuan paused for a second, then shook his head and said, "No, I think I will just wait outside. Zi Ming, remember, do not be impatient, and try to understand everything, and do not think about anything else. It's okay if you do not succeed, and do not let anything happen to him!"

Pu Xuan had already told me this many times these past two days. It was because I had seen someone who was too obsessed with enlightenment and would instead go berserk; looking at his back as he left, I once again felt a little guilty. This kind of master, if he treated me so sincerely, if I had met him from the start, I probably wouldn't have done such a thing.

But this trace of guilt and emotion was instantly overwhelmed by endless worry. If an accident were to happen, how am I supposed to cooperate with Qiu Xuan to destroy the Heaven's Expanse School's protective formation, and how am I supposed to deal with the Yellow Sparrow Mantis? At that time, how many days will I have to endure before I can endure the torment of revenge?

I have thought about giving up this opportunity, but when I thought about how this is the best way to increase my own strength, I was a little reluctant. If I wait until after the wedding, then I would have to find a time to come and comprehend it. Moreover, perhaps subconsciously, I was a little against the marriage between Lan Yun and I. If my identity was revealed, the wedding would definitely be cancelled. Then, I wouldn't have to use the innocent Lan Yun to deceive her for my entire life.

With a flick of my finger, a drop of blood was forced out of the jade slip. Under my extremely nervous gaze, the jade slip slowly emitted a gentle white light that enveloped me. This light should only be seen by me, otherwise, Pu Xuan wouldn't say that everyone only had one chance.

After staring at the light for a moment to make sure that there was nothing abnormal, my uneasy heart finally calmed down. It seems that I had overthought things. Everything was fine. My identity would not be revealed.

Closing my eyes, I had to be careful not to fall silent when a scene appeared in front of me. An old man with a white beard floating in the air, looking down at the earth, and I, who seemed to be watching from the side as a spectator. All of this was exactly as Pu Xuan described to me.

The old man waved his hand and saw that the gentle wind was blowing so hard that it made people's faces hurt. It was as if the wind was real! When the old man reached out his hand, a spear appeared out of nowhere in his grasp. The spear was entirely green, and was faintly flowing like water, but upon closer inspection, it did not seem abnormal at all. Standing by the side, I could clearly feel the huge destructive aura contained within the spear, it was definitely not something I could defend against with just ten or a hundred of them!

The old man held the gun ready to be thrown, but suddenly let out a soft "Ai" sound, the subtle glanced at me, I was startled, I knew it was going to be bad!

As expected, the old man suddenly turned his head, his eyes extremely cold as he shouted, "Which scoundrel dares to spy on our absolute art?!"

After saying that, a shot was shot at me …

Recovering my consciousness, I suddenly opened my eyes and spat out a mouthful of blood. The light of the jade slip completely retreated. With a" pa "sound, a crack appeared and sent me flying several meters away. I was already seriously injured!

The thing that seriously injured me was not the light, but the spear that the old man shot out when I was trying to comprehend it! I originally thought that it was only an image, but it was actually a Spiritual Awareness. However, if it wasn't just a Spiritual Awareness, then my little life would have been handed over to this place.

I didn't have time to think about anything else. I grabbed the pills I got from Pu Xuan and swallowed them all down, hoping that this injury would recover as soon as possible. I smiled bitterly in my heart. Looks like I won't be able to escape this calamity …
