Especially the Palace Master understood in her heart, that Duan Gujin was very likely a person from the Demon Path.
If it had been at any other time, the Palace Master would definitely not have allowed Duan Gujin, a person suspected of being from the Demon Path, to enter the Guanghan Heavenly Palace, but their current enemy was extremely powerful, and she had to ally with all the forces that could oppose the Sky Crossing Demon King.
The people were once again shocked, sensing the aura bursting forth from Duan Gujin that instilled a bone-chilling fear in their hearts.
"That Duan Gujin's Martial Soul is definitely not a Martial Soul of the Righteous Path! I hope that Duan Gujin can always stand with us, or once his strength matures, he will venture to other continents and not return to the Qiankun Continent."
The Palace Master thought to herself.
Two days later, everyone suddenly sensed a surging and overwhelming power rapidly ascending from Duan Gujin's secret chamber.
All those present changed their expressions dramatically; they sensed that Duan Gujin's cultivation had surged through two minor realms in an instant, their hearts were astounded, faces blank, eyes filled with disbelief.
"My heavens, how could Duan Gujin enhance two minor realms in such a short time?"
Everyone present felt that Duan Gujin's cultivation improvement was too rapid, completely overturning their previous understanding.
Seeing Duan Gujin come out, everyone still wore expressions of shock.
Seeing the expressions on their faces, Duan Gujin did not explain anything to them.
He found the Palace Master and urgently inquired about the current situation outside.
The Palace Master then told Duan Gujin everything that had happened these days.
Knowing that during his seclusion, the Palace Master still could not find the Sky Crossing Demon King, disappointment flashed across Duan Gujin's face.
And the Palace Master and the others, seeing Duan Gujin, had the same thought flash through their minds.
"This Duan Gujin really is a devil! To continuously surge through two minor realms in one day! It's too fantastical!"
The Palace Master knew that for a Martial Artist in the Qiankun Continent, to continuously surge through two minor realms was a very difficult task.
Shang Yumin sensed an extremely strong aura being released from Duan Gujin, which bore some similarities to the aura of a Demon King, yet there were many differences.
She gasped in shock, guessing the truth.
"It looks like Duan Gujin has successfully devoured and refined those Demon King's auras!"
In the treasure books of the Guanghan Heavenly Palace, there were many records about Martial Artists being able to devour and refine the energies of other demons.
In Shang Yumin's understanding, only Martial Artists with extremely high cultivation can devour and refine the energies of other demons.
But now, Duan Gujin, a Martial Artist with only the First Level of Martial Monarch, was able to devour and refine the aura of other demons and transform their energies into his own—this is definitely not something an ordinary expert could achieve.
Upon seeing the Palace Master, Duan Gujin inquired whether she could well understand the Ten Thousand Sword Sealing Formation.
The Palace Master then told Duan Gujin that she had already shared the Mystical Technique of the Ten Thousand Sword Sealing Formation with other Martial Artists.
Then, Duan Gujin had one hundred top experts from the Qiankun Continent perform the Ten Thousand Sword Sealing Formation in front of him.
Among those hundreds of strong experts from the Qiankun Continent, there was also Zhuge Hongyun, the Sect Master of the Green Cloud Sect.
Even though at that moment, Duan Gujin was still a True Disciple of Zhuge Hongyun, Zhuge Hongyun was not arrogant but sincerely practiced the Ten Thousand Sword Sealing Formation with the others.
If someone had witnessed this scene, they would definitely be very shocked.
After all, Duan Gujin was just a True Disciple of the Green Cloud Sect, yet he had his Master practice swordsmanship in front of him; this completely contradicted the thousand-year tradition of honoring the Master's path of the Qiankun Continent.
But those present didn't feel anything wrong with Duan Gujin's actions; they knew that the Ten Thousand Sword Sealing Formation was taught by Duan Gujin, and only he knew the intricate details of it.
For them, having Duan Gujin personally guide them was an honor.
They were very clear that if they received guidance from Duan Gujin, it meant that they would not be flustered when facing the Sky Crossing Demon King in the future.
Watching the hundreds of Martial Artists practice the Ten Thousand Sword Sealing Formation, Duan Gujin felt that there were no mistakes.
He then dismissed them and told the Palace Master to prepare some Spiritual Medicine for him.
"Duan Gujin, if you want Spiritual Medicine, talk to Shang Yumin; she knows much more about Spiritual Medicine than I do."
The Palace Master said.
"Alright!"
A moment later, Duan Gujin found Shang Yumin and consulted her about some matters concerning Spiritual Medicine.
Shang Yumin first asked Duan Gujin to write down the names of the Spiritual Medicines, then she went to check how much Spiritual Medicine was left.
So, Duan Gujin wrote down all the names of the Spiritual Medicines he needed on a piece of paper.
After writing, he handed the paper to Shang Yumin.
Shang Yumin took the paper written by Duan Gujin and carefully analyzed it for a while.
After a moment, she told Duan Gujin that she was missing some of the Spiritual Medicines listed on the paper, and she asked Duan Gujin to write down the characteristics of those medicines to see if similar Spiritual Medicines could be substituted.
Generally speaking, unless it is a very special Spiritual Medicine, ordinary Spiritual Medicines can be substituted with other ones.
Of course, this method of substituting one Spiritual Medicine with another can seriously impair the effects of the Elixir Pills produced.
Moreover, whether this method of substituting Spiritual Medicines can be successful depends on whether the person offering the Elixir Recipe is willing to change the medicines.
After a busy day, Duan Gujin decided to return to the secret chamber arranged for him by the Palace Master.
However, on his way back, he saw an old man sweeping the path.
As he approached the old man, he noticed a flash of cold light in the old man's eyes.
Duan Gujin was truly puzzled as to why the old man harbored a killing intent towards him.
"Why does this old man have a Killing Aura towards me?"
Duan Gujin felt that the old man was very strange, so he intentionally got closer to the old man, hoping to find a flaw.
After a while, his eyes lit up.
"This old man is very suspicious, his aura is very similar to that of Han Zhanyi! Yes! He is very likely a disciple of the Netherworld Sect!"
Duan Gujin's expression slightly changed, his mind racing.
"Han Zhanyi must have planted spies in sects across the Qiankun Continent, it's very possible to find a spy here in Guanghan Heavenly Palace too!"
Duan Gujin then focused his attention on the old man, trying to find a flaw.
On the surface, the old man appeared to be a very ordinary old man, not sweeping particularly fast, just not appearing too decrepit.
At this moment, the old man was sweeping the ground very meticulously.
No matter how one looked at it, the old man appeared no different from a normal servant.
But as Duan Gujin got closer to the old man, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
This was his direct sense of danger!
This sort of premonition was honed through countless experiences of assassination, and he trusted his intuition!
His eyes flashed, and he moved slightly away from the old man.
Seeing Duan Gujin leave, the old man's expression subtly changed, and then he continued sweeping elsewhere without any movements to chase after Duan Gujin.
From the surface, the old man's actions had no apparent issues.
But a flash of dangerous intuition passed through Duan Gujin's mind; he speculated that the old man could very likely be a genuine Professional Killer.
"It looks like I need to ask the Palace Master!"
In order to avoid complications, Duan Gujin immediately found the Palace Master and pulled her aside to quietly inquire using a secret transmission of sound.
The Palace Master's eyes flickered upon hearing Duan Gujin's words; she had not expected Duan Gujin to suspect a sweeping servant in the Guanghan Heavenly Palace to be a spy sent by the Netherworld Sect.
"That's a servant who has been employed by our Guanghan Heavenly Palace for a long time!"
The Palace Master carefully analyzed the portrait of the old man that Duan Gujin had drawn on paper, and then told Duan Gujin the truth.
"A servant? Are you sure that person does not have any Cultivation?"
Duan Gujin asked.
"I completely cannot sense any cultivation on him; we in the Guanghan Heavenly Palace have thoroughly checked everyone who enters to work as servants! I'm certain that the old man is just a common person and nearly has no Cultivation at all!"
The Palace Master stated earnestly.
