Chapter 123: Hu Long's Shock, the Bizarre Aspects of Cangwu Mountain!

Upon hearing this.

Hu Long's pupils abruptly shrank to pinpoints, his heart filled with horror, utterly shaken!

What kind of joke is this? That terrifying fellow Gu Xingjian is actually a Jiang family retainer? Since when did this happen?

Damn it! Such important information wasn't even mentioned in the intelligence!

Amid his shock, Hu Long suddenly thought of something terrifying.

Since Gu Xingjian is a Jiang family retainer, could this sudden attack on him at the Shanmen be on Jiang Daoxuan's orders?

The moment this possibility crossed his mind.

Hu Long instantly felt a spine-chilling coldness shoot from the soles of his feet straight up to the crown of his head!

I don't think I've ever offended the Jiang family, have I? Why would I be treated like this by Jiang Jianzong?

Hu Long was scared out of his wits, nearly fainting on the spot.

At this moment, noticing Hu Long's wretched display.

Gu Xingjian shook his head, sighing inwardly at the other's poor temperament.

Immediately after, in order to return to the family great hall as soon as possible and report back to Jiang Daoxuan.

He no longer lingered, his left hand suddenly exerting force as he grabbed Hu Long by the back of his collar and swiftly headed toward the Jiang family compound.

After walking over a hundred steps in one stretch.

The concentration of spiritual energy permeating the air suddenly surged violently, a completely different world from the Shanmen!

Sensing the earth-shattering transformation in the surrounding spiritual energy concentration, Hu Long was once again dumbfounded.

"Why is the spiritual energy of Cangwu Mountain so terrifying?"

At this moment, he discovered in astonishment.

The density of spiritual energy here far surpassed that of his own sect!

The gap between them was probably dozens to hundreds of times, completely not on the same scale!

And this was merely his own conservative estimate; the actual gap was absolutely no smaller!

Just as Hu Long was still deeply immersed in the shock caused by the spiritual energy here.

A sudden change occurred.

An invisible, formless, terrifying power suddenly descended from the heavens, enveloping his body.

Immediately after, before Hu Long could even figure out where this power came from.

He discovered in horror that his cultivation base was actually dropping!

And dropping faster and faster.

Primordial Sea realm third stage... Primordial Sea realm second stage... Primordial Sea realm first stage.....

A few breaths later.

Hu Long discovered in utter astonishment that his cultivation base had actually plummeted to Purple Mansion realm third stage!

An entire great realm had dropped!!

However, the only thing worth being grateful for was.

This drop in cultivation base was not permanent, but rather in a temporarily forcibly sealed state by an external force.

At the same time.

Gu Xingjian also keenly sensed the tremendous change occurring in Hu Long.

Seeing the other's aura continuously weaken, ultimately plummeting to Purple Mansion realm third stage, he could not help but feel greatly surprised.

What on earth had happened?

Gu Xingjian voiced the question inwardly.

Even with his vast experience, he had never witnessed such a bizarre scene.

He could not comprehend what could cause a Primordial Sea realm cultivator to silently plummet an entire great realm in such a short time!

Could this be related to the Clan Chief, my lord?

At this moment, Gu Xingjian suddenly thought of that Clan Chief whose entire being radiated endless mystery.

If such an incomprehensible method were man-made, it was probably only something the Clan Chief, my lord, could have set up, right?

Gu Xingjian sighed inwardly, then forcibly suppressed his curiosity, resumed his pace, and brought Hu Long into the Jiang family compound.

The scene of Gu Xingjian carrying Hu Long forward with one hand along the way.

Instantly caused a huge sensation among the surrounding crowd!

Many Jiang family disciples who were still practicing sword and fist arts stopped one after another to watch the spectacle.

"Look quickly, who is that person in Retainer Gu's hand?"

"Such an unfamiliar face, why would this person be captured by Retainer Gu?"

"Could it be someone who forced their way into our Jiang family Shanmen?"

The crowd gathered together, chattering away, beginning to make all sorts of guesses.

Just as they were chatting enthusiastically.

The mountain-guarding disciple who had just delivered the news earlier turned to the crowd with a broad grin.
