51: Chapter 51: A Frenzied Summoning of Powerful Individuals, A New Mission Appears

The sun set in the west, and the test finally neared its end!

Eighteen spots, not one more, not one less!

Qingyun Holy Land, Yi Gang, Zhatian Gang, and other forces that displayed the utmost loyalty in the illusion were all selected.

Most were small Sects with a few dozen people or Loose Cultivator Alliances with a few hundred.

Conversely, those large Sects with tens of thousands of members were completely wiped out; not a single one remained!

If their hearts are not upright, no matter how many people they have, they are just a menace!

Previously, I wanted to pick a few that were pleasing to the eye, but now it seems that those who passed the heart-questioning mirror are already one in ten thousand!

Clan Leader Gu Tianhua stood before the mountain gate, looking at the representatives of the remaining eighteen forces, and took a deep breath.

"From this day forth, you are vassals of the Gu Family!"

His voice spread across the entire venue!

"As long as the Gu Family exists for a day, we will protect you for a day! But there is one condition: if the Gu Family has matters to attend to, you must be the first to charge forward! If anyone eats the Gu Family's food but smashes the Gu Family's pot, do not blame the Gu Family for turning hostile and refusing to recognize you!"

The representatives of the eighteen forces bowed in unison, their voices uniform: "We will strictly obey the orders of the Gu Family!"

Clan Leader Gu Tianhua nodded and waved his hand: "Go in! We will arrange your tasks in due time."

Many of the remaining forces felt ashamed; the ugly side exposed under the heart-questioning mirror made them want to flee immediately!

They did not want everyone to see this scene!

The back mountain!

The System panel appeared before his eyes!

[Vassal Force Mission: Complete!]

[Rewards are being distributed!]

[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining: Saint Summoning Card × 99!]

[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining: Random Summoning Card × 3!]

Ninety-nine Saints, three Random Summoning Cards!

Not bad, but still not enough!

He raised his hand, and all the Summoning Cards accumulated in the System warehouse appeared before him!

Great Emperor Summoning Card x4

Quasi-Emperor Summoning Card x2

Eternal Realm Summoning Card x3

Saint King Summoning Card x3

Saint Summoning Card x1

Plus the ninety-nine Saint cards just obtained, that makes 100 in total!

There were also three Random Cards; the Summoning Cards were dazzling, covering the ground!

"System, synthesize them all. Upgrade them as high as possible."

[Ding! Detected that the Host possesses a large number of Summoning Cards. Confirm using all for upgrade synthesis?]

"Confirm!"

[Synthesizing!]

A flash of light passed, and the Summoning Cards emitted a dazzling radiance!

[Synthesis complete!]

[Congratulations on obtaining: Eternal Realm Summoning Card x1]

The light dispersed; 100 Saint Summoning Cards went in, and only one Eternal Realm Summoning Card was synthesized!

After all that effort, only one Eternal Realm card was synthesized!

Forget it!

There are still three Random Summoning Cards; let's see if anything good comes out!

"Use the Random Summoning Cards, use all three!"

[Ding! Random Summoning Cards in use!]

In a corner of the back mountain, three figures of middle-aged men appeared!

The three looked at each other, nodded in acknowledgment, and then approached Gu Xuan.

They knelt on one knee, clasped their hands in salute, and said!

"Subordinate Great Emperor Bai Yujing greets the Master."

"Subordinate Ye Wuhen greets the Master."

"Subordinate Ding Jiangbo greets the Master."

Two Great Emperors, one Quasi-Emperor!

Luck isn't bad; pulled two golds!

Gu Xuan nodded; it's alright, at least better than that Eternal Realm card!

The three knelt on one knee in unison: "Greetings, Master."

Gu Xuan waved his hand: "Rise, and stand over there."

The three rose and stood in place.

Gu Xuan opened the System warehouse.

He scanned the remaining Summoning Cards: there were still a few Saint King Summoning Cards, the newly synthesized Eternal Realm Summoning Card hadn't been used yet, and there were two Quasi-Emperor Summoning Cards left!

He thought for a moment.

The Gu Family's top combat power is currently sufficient: Jian Wuji, Yue Qingshuang, Yue Qingxue, Great Emperor Bai Yujing, Ye Wuhen—five Great Emperors!

There is the Quasi-Emperor Ding Jiangbo, plus the two unsummoned Quasi-Emperor cards, totaling three Quasi-Emperors!

The Four Great Divine Beasts are also Great Emperors, but they are only suitable for guarding the house; otherwise, they would run around with people again like that stupid tiger!

If it were known that the Four Great Divine Beasts are only suitable for guarding the house, I don't know how many people would break down!

Currently, the mid-to-low tier combat power is still insufficient; there are too few Saint King-level experts, and almost none at the Saint level!

Must raise the overall strength of the Family!

"System, except for the Great Emperor Summoning Cards which are to be kept, summon all other Saint King, Eternal Realm, and Quasi-Emperor cards."

[Ding! Confirming summons.]

Flashes of light came one after another!

The three Saint King Summoning Cards were activated first, and three figures appeared on the back mountain!

Two men and one woman, all middle-aged, knelt on one knee: "Greetings, Master!"

Gu Xuan nodded, signaling them to stand aside.

Four Eternal Realm Summoning Cards followed closely, golden lights appearing one after another!

"Subordinate Tie Niu!"

"Subordinate Zi Linglong!"

"Subordinate Kumu!"

"Subordinate Xu Fan!"

"Greetings, Master!"

Four Eternal Realm experts lined up!

There were more and more people on the back mountain, and the auras became increasingly chaotic.

Finally, the two Quasi-Emperor Summoning Cards!

The light dispersed, and two figures stood side by side—a man and a woman!

The man was tall and imposing, the woman petite and exquisite, and their auras were equally unfathomable!

"Subordinate Qin Cangqiong."

"Subordinate Su Xiaoyan."

"Greetings, Master."

Gu Xuan scanned them; not bad!

At least they all look decent!

"Rise, and stand aside." He waved his hand, his tone casual.

The back mountain was packed with people!

Jian Wuji, Yue Qingshuang, Yue Qingxue, Great Emperor Bai Yujing, and Ye Wuhen—the five Great Emperors stood at the very front!

Qin Cangqiong, Su Xiaoyan, and Ding Jiangbo—the three Quasi-Emperors stood in the second row!

Tie Niu, Zi Linglong, Kumu, and Xu Fan—the four Eternal Realm experts in the third row!

At the end were the three Saint Kings, who didn't even dare to breathe loudly!

What is all this!

They wondered how they ended up here!

A place filled with experts!

Is this really a place they can be?

Gu Xuan was about to speak when the System's mechanical voice suddenly rang in his mind!

[Ding! New mission released!]

[Mission Objective: Within three months, raise the overall strength of the Gu Family Disciples to the Saint Realm! Raise the overall strength of the vassal forces to the Saint Realm simultaneously!]

[Mission Reward: Great Emperor Summoning Card × 2, Random Summoning Card × 2!]

Three months, the entire Family at the Saint Realm?

The vassal forces also at the Saint Realm?

This mission is a fantasy in the entire Eastern Region.

There are billions of Cultivators in the Eastern Region, and the total number of Saints is roughly in the four digits.

Making thousands of people all become Saints in three months; no one would believe it if said out loud.

But the Gu Family has things that others do not!

The Marrow Cleansing Array can reshape Aptitude, the Spiritual Qi of the Immortal Vein can make Cultivation speed a thousand times faster, and they eat enlightenment tea and ginseng fruit like meals!

Three months?

Completely enough!

"Tianhua." Gu Xuan's voice reached outside the mountain gate.

Clan Leader Gu Tianhua was settling the eighteen vassal forces when he heard the Old Ancestor's summons.

He immediately ran to the back mountain: "Old Ancestor, what is it?"

Gu Xuan pointed at the crowd of people standing densely on the back mountain: "These are the people from the Enforcer Hall. Arrange things for them, let them recognize the place and the people; don't let them fight on our own turf. In the future, if there are any problems you cannot solve, you can also have the people from the Enforcer Hall take action."

Clan Leader Gu Tianhua looked at those rows of figures with terrifying auras and swallowed hard.

He didn't know where the Old Ancestor got these people from; their auras were too terrifying!

Even the weakest among them was an existence he could not afford to provoke!

But so what?

He is the Gu Family Clan Chief, and they all have to listen to him!
