773: Hun Tian Sword Master
"Master?!"
Chen Mo's pupils constricted. He never expected that the one attacking him would be the Starry Sacred Mother.
Leaving aside the fact that he was the Starry Sacred Mother's disciple, given the Starry Sacred Mother's realm and status, would she really stoop so low as to personally make a move?
He hadn't done anything to harm the Star God Sect.
Furthermore, the Starry Sacred Mother doted on Gu Qing so much; wouldn't her forceful intervention in his battle with Gu Qing make Gu Qing's Dao Heart incomplete?
As Chen Mo was baffled, hearing the Starry Sacred Mother's words immediately scared him out of his wits.
It turned out that the Starry Sacred Mother had only taken him as a disciple for his Chaotic Sword Bone.
"No, that's not right. Although my sword bone is useful to her, its effect is limited. Moreover, she is highly respected, cherishes talent, and loves to teach. She should be vigorously cultivating me."
"If it's not for the Chaotic Sword Bone, then what is it for?"
A great terror of life and death spread in his heart, and Chen Mo was utterly terrified.
"Oh? Do you really think Master is highly respected?"
Gu Qing returned to the courtyard, looking at the furnace the Starry Sacred Mother had condensed with her palms. Chen Mo was inside the furnace, infinitely shrunken.
Hearing Chen Mo's self-talk, Gu Qing asked playfully.
"Of course."
Chen Mo's survival instinct exploded, and he answered without hesitation.
"Hahahaha!"
Gu Qing laughed loudly, mockingly saying, "I don't think you believe Master is highly respected; you just know you're about to die."
He paused, then added, "I still prefer your arrogant and untamed look from Shishen Restaurant."
Chen Mo was greatly alarmed, not caring how Gu Qing knew what he was thinking, and quickly shook his head in denial: "I absolutely have no disrespect for Master. I am just indignant that Master is biased."
If he admitted it, he would surely die. Thinking the Starry Sacred Mother was biased might still give him a slim chance of survival.
Chen Mo's gaze suddenly turned sinister as he looked at Gu Qing: "It's you, it must be you who is stirring up trouble in front of Master."
"Master, I'm wronged! It must be Gu Qing who is jealous of my talent and afraid that I will surpass him."
"Noisy!"
The Starry Sacred Mother sealed his body and soul, preventing him from speaking further.
She quickly formed hand seals, integrating everything of Chen Mo into the Chaotic Sword Cauldron.
Chen Mo, at a visible speed, transformed into streams of laws, merging with the Chaotic Sword Cauldron, his soul becoming its artifact spirit.
"Why? Why are you doing this to me?"
"My talent is no worse than Gu Qing's, my future is boundless, and I will surely become a supreme existence."
Chen Mo roared unwillingly.
He was truly very unwilling.
Where exactly was he inferior to Gu Qing?
Chen Mo believed that his talent was unparalleled throughout the ages, his Dao Heart firm, and his combat power heaven-defying.
As long as the Starry Sacred Mother was willing to cultivate him, he was confident of achieving Dao Masterhood.
Could Gu Qing do it?
Why was the Starry Sacred Mother so short-sighted as to throw away the watermelon for sesame seeds?
"Ignorant madman."
The Starry Sacred Mother shook her head slightly.
Chen Mo, relying on his talent, acted without restraint, showing no reverence for the strong, nor any gratitude.
He took it for granted that because he had good talent, the strong must cultivate him.
Little did he know, talent was just talent, not strength.
There was no free lunch in the world. No matter how good the talent, if it couldn't bring benefits to the strong, it was merely livestock raised by the strong.
Whatever was gained would eventually have to be returned in full.
She had countless disciples, all of whom were exceptionally talented favored children of the heavens, including many Sky Dao's Chosen.
However, if they couldn't be of one mind with her, if they didn't believe in her, and couldn't bring her benefits.
The Starry Sacred Mother, though she wouldn't kill them, wouldn't expend any more effort cultivating them.
As for those who forgot their roots, she would kill them without hesitation.
Thinking this, the Starry Sacred Mother didn't wait for Chen Mo to speak again, continuously striking out seals, dismembering Chen Mo's soul, turning it into origin, and perfectly merging it with the Chaotic Sword Cauldron.
As their origins merged, the Chaotic Sword Cauldron instantly advanced to a mid-grade Chaotic Spiritual Treasure.
The Starry Sacred Mother separated a wisp of Dao thought, carrying the Chaotic Sword Cauldron and the Zhou Tian Star Fighting Formation Diagram, and returned to her cave dwelling.
It would take too long to merge these two supreme treasures, at least hundreds of thousands of years, and her main body didn't have that much time to waste.
It was better to leave it to her Dao thought to slowly refine them in a cave dwelling with a million-fold time acceleration.
"Star Saintess, aren't you being a bit too unruly?"
In the courtyard, a majestic and cold voice suddenly rang out.
After successively losing the Chaotic Divine Sword and the Chaotic Sword Cauldron, Hun Tian Swordmaster was completely enraged.
The Starry Sacred Mother's expression remained unchanged: "I am cleaning up a rebellious disciple under my command; what does that have to do with you?"
"How dare you!"
A figure appeared in the courtyard, enveloped in chaotic profound light, exuding a vast, ancient Chaos Qi.
"It's you again, this ant, ruining my good deed."
"Hand over the Chaotic Sword Cauldron and the Chaotic Divine Sword, and this Venerable will let bygones be bygones."
"Otherwise, next time, it will be my true body descending."
When Hun Tian Swordmaster saw Gu Qing, he immediately recognized that the person who snatched his Chaotic Divine Sword was Gu Qing.
"Treasures belong to the virtuous. If Fellow Daoist is unconvinced, you may come and fight."
"Good, good, good!"
Hun Tian Swordmaster laughed in extreme anger. A rising star who had just broken through to Dao Sovereign actually didn't put him in his eyes at all.
It seemed he hadn't made a move for too long, causing the Boundless Chaos and All Heavens Myriad Realms to forget about him, Hun Tian Swordmaster.
Hun Tian Swordmaster took a deep look at the Starry Sacred Mother and Gu Qing, remembering their auras, before returning to the Boundless Chaos.
His true body was currently fully focused on breaking through to Dao Master and could not yet emerge from seclusion.
The day he broke through to Dao Master would be the day both of them perished.
"What a pity!"
Seeing Hun Tian Swordmaster disappear, a look of disappointment flashed in Gu Qing's eyes.
Actually, he had hoped that Hun Tian Swordmaster would come to kill them regardless of the consequences.
With the Profound Fire Treasure Mirror in hand, no matter how strong Hun Tian Swordmaster was, he would come but never return.
"No pity. He should be at a critical moment in his breakthrough to Dao Master. When he breaks through, you should have finished your tribulation. At that time, we master and disciple will join forces again to plunder his fortune."
The Starry Sacred Mother said with a smile.
She was a professional at raising pigs.
"That's true!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Qing's perspective broadened.
Bai Zhilan listened to the conversation between master and disciple, feeling a chill run down her spine, a sense of dread.
That was an ancient Dao Sovereign on the verge of breaking through to Dao Master, yet the two of them treated such an existence as a fat sheep.
How strong were the Starry Sacred Mother and Gu Qing exactly?
And how many trump cards did they have?
Bai Zhilan felt terrified just thinking about it.
The game between mighty figures was indeed not something a small fry like her could get involved in.
In the eyes of such powerhouses, she was just an insignificant ant.
"Junior Sister, work hard. When you break through to Master God, Senior Brother will take you to soar together and dominate the Boundless Chaos."
Gu Qing patted her fragrant shoulder, encouraging her.
Bai Zhilan came back to her senses, forcing a strained smile on her face: "Senior Brother thinks too highly of me. How can Master God be so easy to break through to?"
"Don't you have a Dao Decree?"
Gu Qing chuckled lightly, saying, "Senior Brother will make you Vice Sect Leader, with the Sect's fortune blessing you, and give you chaotic source crystals to reshape your foundation and perfect your Great Dao."
"You now have fortune and talent; you already possess the potential to break through to Master God."
"That's right!"
"Refine your foundation well, then enter the Land of Dao Propagation. You have at least a seventy percent chance of obtaining the inheritance," the Starry Sacred Mother said.
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhilan's eyes were filled with gratitude. She bowed deeply to the two of them: "Thank you, Master and Senior Brother, for your cultivation. Zhilan will not fail to live up to your expectations."
"We are all family; there's no need for thanks."
Gu Qing waved his hand: "You may go. Managing the Sect well for Senior Brother is the best way to repay me."
Bai Zhilan: "..."
"Senior Brother, you are really too annoying."
Would it kill him to say a few nice words?
Her gratitude towards Gu Qing instantly halved.
Bai Zhilan returned to the Sect with a depressed look, burying herself in hard work.
"Are you interested in her?"
The Starry Sacred Mother looked suspicious.
"Interested in her?"
Gu Qing was startled, then reacted, saying speechlessly, "Which eye of Master's saw that I was interested in her? I've always regarded her as a Junior Sister, a qualified Vice Sect Leader. Cultivating her is only so that she can help me better in the future."
"Really not?"
"Really not!"
"Good disciple..."
The Starry Sacred Mother smiled, took his arm, and led him towards the room.
Gu Qing's body stiffened slightly.
