Chapter 1065 Assassination of Gu Xiu! Certain Death!
While Gu Xiu was still undergoing the tribulation of lighting the lamp, a group of six cultivators who had deliberately suppressed their cultivation levels and tried not to attract attention had already arrived in the shadows of the night outside the Mingxin Academy where Gu Xiu lived.
Several people looked at each other.
No one dared to speak, but they communicated telepathically:
"How is it, is everything arranged?"
"Don't worry, everything's arranged. This kid wanted a secluded spot, so Jiang Jiansi specially arranged this Mingxin Courtyard for him. There are usually only a few patrolling disciples here. Our people will be responsible for attracting people away. As long as the commotion isn't too big, we can at least guarantee that no one will come here for the next half hour!"
"Any other information? Are you sure this kid is undergoing the tribulation of lighting the lamp?"
“Master Sanye used divination techniques, and with our people observing, we found that this kid hasn’t left the room since he came in, but his aura is sometimes strong and sometimes weak, so he is undergoing tribulation.”
"Great! This is our chance! This time, we'll make sure this kid dies a horrible death!"
"Don't be careless. Don't forget his previous achievements. Also, the time flow during the Lighting Tribulation is different from that of the outside world. He may have already completed the tribulation. We still need to be cautious."
"What are you afraid of? Have you forgotten that we all have supreme methods? So what if this kid had a glorious record before? He'll still die without a fight if caught off guard!"
"hurry up!"
"Let's go!"
"..."
The six people communicated for a while.
Without further hesitation, he quietly began to sneak into the courtyard where Gu Xiu was.
They were quite capable and had a clear objective. They had obviously made thorough preparations for this trip. The whole process went extremely smoothly. They sneaked into the courtyard without disturbing the local formations. Even after landing, they did not take any immediate action.
Instead, they each took out their battle flags and set them up in the pre-planned corners of the courtyard.
In just a short while, the grand formation was completed.
The grand array of Mingxin Courtyard flickered slightly, but quickly fell silent again, as if nothing had happened. However, if someone were outside the courtyard, they would find that Mingxin Courtyard seemed even quieter today, and they could not even sense the slightest fluctuation of spiritual energy.
"The formation is complete. Even if a supreme being were to pass by, they would not be able to detect what's inside unless they observed it very carefully!"
"Then next... will be a dark and stormy night for murder!"
"Proceed with caution!"
Now that the grand formation had been set up, there was no longer any need to worry. However, even so, the six of them did not let their guard down. They took steps together and slowly made their way towards the main house. They did not forget to conceal their auras and maintained their combined attack formation.
The entire process proceeded without any disturbance and at an extremely slow pace.
Even the Supreme.
They might not be able to detect their arrival without being aware of it.
They were all powerful individuals, all at the Great Perfection of the Void Refinement Realm, and each possessed supreme techniques. Naturally, they had come to claim lives.
This operation against the entire Tianyuan Sword Sect is something that all the participating forces are determined to succeed.
Although the Supreme Beings had postponed their trip to the Sword Sect due to the massacre of the Su Ling Valley, their methods had already reached the Tianyuan Sword Sect even though they hadn't come in person. And this time, these six powerful figures were here on orders to take Gu Xiu's life!
no way.
In their plan, Gu Xiu was part of the plan, but also the biggest variable in the plan. It would be better for everyone if he died.
With Gu Xiu removed, their plan was bound to succeed!
Gu Xiu was strong.
But in the end, he was only at the Nascent Soul stage. Even though the intelligence said that Gu Xiu could even fight against a Supreme, no one cared. Regardless of whether the statement was true or false, even if it was true, they were not afraid. As long as it was not a true Supreme, they could guarantee it.
Gu Xiu is doomed to die tonight!
but……
They had only gone a short distance when the leader frowned, then quickly raised his hand to stop them. While the others were still puzzled, he had already taken out a compass, examined it carefully for a while, and then whispered:
"This kid is indeed very cunning; he has secretly set up several layers of formations here!"
"Unfortunately, although this kid is skilled in formations, I was prepared. From now on, you all follow me closely and remember not to make any rash moves!"
Everyone nodded in agreement, and the group quickly followed the other party, moving around the courtyard as much as possible to avoid any of the formations within.
A master is indeed a master.
Although the process was a bit tedious, the result was good. By the time they stumbled through the courtyard and arrived at the main house, they hadn't triggered any of the array alarms in the courtyard. Especially when they could vaguely see through the window the figure sitting cross-legged motionless under the candlelight inside the house without noticing anything, they couldn't help but feel a little smug.
"As expected of a disciple of True Master Jinye, his array formations are indeed formidable. Although Gu Xiu's array formations are strong, they are nothing compared to Fellow Daoist Ding."
"That's right. No matter how powerful this kid is, he's just lucky with Fuyuan. His real strength is nothing special."
"This kid hasn't reacted yet, he's really slow. It seems it's not a bad thing that he died here today."
The group exchanged glances, their already evident disdain growing even more pronounced.
Fortunately.
The leader did not underestimate the enemy and immediately transmitted his voice:
"Gentlemen, do not underestimate the enemy. Even a lion must go all out to hunt a rabbit. Gu Xiu was not easy to deal with five hundred years ago, and he will only be more troublesome now that five hundred years have passed. We should hold nothing back and use all our methods against him. Only in this way can we live up to your expectations."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Regardless of whether they respected Gu Xiu or not, they absolutely could not underestimate him or lower their guard. Seeing the crowd's response, the leader waved his hand.
"According to the rules, we should first set up a trapping formation!"
"Sever all internal and external connections!"
"Use another illusion array to ensure that even if he senses something is wrong, he won't be able to lock onto us immediately."
"There's still poisonous fog! Get ready immediately!"
"..."
What does it mean to be well prepared?
This is what it means to be well-prepared. In order to kill a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, six experts at the Great Perfection of the Void Refinement realm made a move together. Moreover, they did not immediately launch a sneak attack. Instead, they made thorough preparations. Such calculation and preparation are something that no one could withstand.
but……
Whether it was because the six people came from different factions and their cooperation was not very smooth, or what, just when everything was about to be completed, a very faint sound, almost negligible, suddenly rang out, startling everyone.
After glancing at the still motionless figure inside the room, the group turned their disapproving gaze to the person who had made the sound in the distance.
"Jiang Xuyao, what's wrong with you, you idiot?"
"You can't even fix one formation properly, are you trying to harm us?"
"Fool, don't you think you owe us an explanation?"
The accusations went unanswered, causing everyone to frown. Just as they were about to become wary, Jiang Xuyao turned around with a smirk on his face.
"I'm so sorry, Gu Xiu has too many tricks up his sleeve. I almost got into an accident myself, but thankfully I escaped unharmed. I apologize to everyone."
Seeing that he had said that.
Although the crowd was dissatisfied, this was not the time to pursue these matters, and the leader among them had already pressed for answers:
"Are you all ready?"
Everyone snapped out of their thoughts and nodded repeatedly. Upon seeing their response, a sinister glint immediately appeared in the leader's eyes:
"In that case..."
"Now, let's make our move!"
Finished.
An arrow emitting a dark light instantly appeared in his hand, and without hesitation, he shot it toward the location of the figure inside the house.
next moment.
Everyone's eyes lit up instantly.
bingo!
