Open up and break into another world

"Trouble?" Gu Kongshan led him into a side hall of the Barbarian Wilderness Hall. "What's going on?"

Xu Ming said, "Ao Xiang is the illegitimate son of Ao Wanya, the master of Ten Thousand Cliff Pavilion!"

"What!?" Gu Kongshan's expression changed drastically. "Ao Xiang is actually Ao Wanya's illegitimate son!?"

Clearly, Gu Kongshan had no idea about this before.

He had only heard that the Hidden Kill Sect had a significant background; as for what that background was, he had no idea. But in any case, Gu Kongshan never imagined that a mere Ao Xiang would have such a relationship with the master of the super-powerful Ten Thousand Cliff Pavilion…

"Are you sure?" Gu Kongshan couldn't help but ask.

"One hundred percent sure!" Xu Ming, of course, dared to be one hundred percent sure of information that Little Guaji had confirmed.

Gu Kongshan leaned back in his chair: "This is really big trouble…"

Ten Thousand Cliff Pavilion!

That was one of the most top-tier existences among Xuan-level forces!

The gap between the Barbarian Wilderness Sect and the Ten Thousand Cliff Pavilion was even greater than the gap between the Flying Cloud Kingdom and the Barbarian Wilderness Sect!

It could be said that as long as the Ten Thousand Cliff Pavilion casually sent out a decent expert, Gu Kongshan would have to use all his trump cards to fight against them.

"That Ten Thousand Cliff Pavilion is a force on par with the Ripple Listening Mountain Manor…" Gu Kongshan said, "Pavilion Master Ao Wanya is rumored to have been a terrifying figure at the Spiritual Realm Completion stage hundreds of years ago! Now, his strength is even more unfathomable!"

In Ao Wanya's eyes, the Barbarian Wilderness Sect was as weak as an ant!

Even if Xu Ming spared no expense to explode with power, he would only be equivalent to the middle stage of the Spiritual Realm. The huge gap between that and the Spiritual Realm Completion stage was simply insurmountable!

"Our Barbarian Wilderness Sect's greatest trump card is the Sect-Protecting Grand Array left behind by our predecessors; I personally control the array and can unleash the battle power of the Spiritual Realm Completion stage! If we were to encounter ordinary enemies, such as the Hidden Kill Sect, as long as we were willing to expose the power of the Sect-Protecting Grand Array, we would naturally have nothing to fear!" Gu Kongshan shook his head and said, "But… facing the Ten Thousand Cliff Pavilion… alas…"

Gu Kongshan had been hiding this trump card, reluctant to expose it, for fear of attracting the attention of true experts. If those experts mistakenly thought that there were rare treasures in the Barbarian Wilderness Sect, that would be fun…

But now, Gu Kongshan sadly discovered that the enemy the Barbarian Wilderness Sect was about to face was one that he could not fight against even if he used all his trump cards!

"The Sect-Protecting Grand Array is so powerful?" Xu Ming had only just learned of the power of the Sect-Protecting Grand Array.

But… even if it was powerful, it was not enough to fight against Ao Wanya!

"Sect Master, I have harmed the sect…" Xu Ming blamed himself, "I shouldn't have killed Ao Xiang and Ao Tian on impulse."

"You didn't do anything wrong!" Gu Kongshan said, "Given the conflict between us and the Hidden Kill Sect, if you didn't kill them, they would have come to kill us! Whether Ao Xiang and Ao Tian are dead or alive, we will inevitably encounter the Ten Thousand Cliff Pavilion!"

Gu Kongshan paced back and forth, clearly thinking carefully about something.

After a long while.

"It seems that relying solely on the internal strength of our Barbarian Wilderness Sect is indeed not enough to cope with this crisis…" Gu Kongshan flipped his hand, and a special deep blue token appeared in his hand.

The token's material was special, and it was cold to the touch.

"This token, this time, must be used!" Gu Kongshan sighed.

"Sect Master, what is this?" Xu Ming asked, puzzled.

Gu Kongshan uttered three words: "Ripple Listening Token!"

"Ripple Listening Token?" Xu Ming thought for a moment, "Is it related to Ripple Listening Mountain Manor?"

"That's right! Our sect's predecessors once had ties with Ripple Listening Mountain Manor; therefore, the Barbarian Wilderness Sect's mountain gate was established under the jurisdiction of Ripple Listening Mountain Manor to seek protection!" Gu Kongshan said, "And this Ripple Listening Token is also a promise that the predecessors of Ripple Listening Mountain Manor gave to our predecessors—as long as we hold this token, the entire Ripple Listening Mountain Manor will spare no expense to protect our Barbarian Wilderness Sect from destruction!"

Gu Kongshan continued, "The Sect Masters of our Barbarian Wilderness Sect have been reluctant to use this Ripple Listening Token for generations! I never thought that it would be used in my generation…"

Gu Kongshan's expression was somewhat melancholy: "I am ashamed of the Barbarian Wilderness Sect's predecessors!"

"However…" Gu Kongshan's expression gradually became firm, "Xu Ming, our Barbarian Wilderness Sect has hope because of you! Even if we use this trump card today, as long as we can buy time for you to grow up… then it will be worth it!"

Xu Ming was only fifteen or sixteen years old, yet he already had such strength; as long as he could grow up smoothly, he had a great chance of leading the Barbarian Wilderness Sect back to its former glory in the future!

Although Xu Ming had a cheat in hand, he still felt some heavy pressure: "Sect Master, I will definitely do my best!"

At this time, Xu Ming didn't say any self-deprecating words.

Someone had to take on the burden of the Barbarian Wilderness Sect returning to its former glory. And clearly, this task belonged to Xu Ming!

If Xu Ming didn't take the initiative to face the difficulties, then who would?

"Good!" Gu Kongshan only said one word.

Immediately, Gu Kongshan's expression was firm, and he said, "Follow me!"

The two of them moved extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, they arrived at the War Room.

Gu Kongshan directly activated the ultra-long-distance communication water screen.

"Contact Ripple Listening Mountain Manor!"

Buzz—

The communication water screen operated laboriously.

Hundreds of the thousands of top-grade Xuan stones placed inside the communication water screen were instantly reduced to powder.

Swoosh!

A communication channel spanning millions of miles was forcibly established.

The latest and most complete novels are at 69shu.com!

Hualala…

The scene from Ripple Listening Mountain Manor appeared in the water screen—it was an elegant pavilion built on the lakeside, surrounded by lakes and mountains.

No figure appeared in the picture, but a leisurely voice came.

"Gu Kongshan, what is it?"

Gu Kongshan quickly said, "Elder Yu Mo, I have something to see Manor Lord Chi; please inform him!"

"Want to see the Manor Lord?" The voice was still leisurely and calm, "The Manor Lord is in seclusion; come back in three months!"

The Manor Lord of Ripple Listening Mountain Manor was undoubtedly an extremely powerful existence at the Spiritual Realm Completion stage. For such an existence, it was not surprising to be in seclusion for several years or even decades.

Like this Elder Yu Mo, who was only heard and not seen, was also a Spiritual Realm Completion expert.

However, Elder Yu Mo was naturally leisurely and indifferent, and rarely interfered in worldly affairs; therefore, he took on the leisurely position of managing the communication water screen and lived in seclusion in this lakeside pavilion for a long time.

"Three months…"

How could Gu Kongshan wait that long!

Three months later, the Barbarian Wilderness Sect might have been razed to the ground…

"I have something urgent to report!" Gu Kongshan said anxiously.

"Even the most urgent matter can wait until the Manor Lord comes out of seclusion." As he said that, he was about to cut off the communication.

Gu Kongshan quickly said, "I have the Ripple Listening Token!"

"Ripple Listening Token?" A surprised and suspicious voice came out.

Now, a figure with a feather fan and silk scarf appeared in the communication water screen.

"It is indeed the Ripple Listening Token!"

The Ripple Listening Token was extremely important to Ripple Listening Mountain Manor!

In the tens of thousands of years of inheritance of Ripple Listening Mountain Manor, only a handful of Ripple Listening Tokens had been issued.

Gu Kongshan had used the Ripple Listening Token, so Elder Yu Mo was naturally no longer cold: "Wait a moment, the Manor Lord will be here immediately!"
