At this moment, Ji Haoyuan had already come before Master Binghuo and then bowed to him.

"Thank you, True Man, for protecting me."

In the beautiful eyes of Master Binghuo, a rare trace of admiration appeared, and she shook her head, saying:

"This matter relies mostly on your own efforts, and there is no need for such courtesy between you and me."

After a pause, Master Binghuo continued:

"From now on, you should call me Senior Sister."

"Yes, Senior Sister!"

Ji Haoyuan's face showed a slight smile.

After traversing this world for over a hundred years, he finally stood among the ranks of the Golden Core today.

From now on, he was no longer the small role anyone could easily manipulate.

Cultivators below the Golden Core, upon seeing him, would have to address him as True Man.

"By the way..."

At this moment, it seemed Master Binghuo remembered something.

With a flip of her jade hand, a flying sword that was entirely silver-white appeared in her palm, emitting a sharp aura.

On the hilt of the sword, the words 'Primordial Star' were engraved.

"What is this?"

Upon seeing the flying sword that Master Binghuo took out, Ji Haoyuan immediately recognized it was not just any Spiritual Artifact Flying Sword but an actual third-tier Magical Treasure Flying Sword!

"I observed that you have quite remarkable achievements in the Sword Dao.

Therefore, when I was in Sword Emperor City, I exchanged for this Magical Treasure Primordial Star Sword for you.

It just so happens to be a congratulatory gift for your advancement to the Golden Core."

As she spoke, Master Binghuo had already handed this Primordial Star Sword to Ji Haoyuan's hands.

Holding this Primordial Star Sword, Ji Haoyuan lightly flicked the blade with his finger.

Clang!

A clear and bright sword chime instantly echoed through the void.

At the same time, strands of Sword Qi breathed in and out around it.

Making the air around the sword blade ripple in circles.

"What a good sword!"

Ji Haoyuan's face immediately revealed a touch of joy.

With this sword, he finally had a Magical Treasure truly suitable for himself.

At that moment, he repeatedly thanked Master Binghuo.

But Master Binghuo just shook her head.

She said, "Now that you have just broken through to the Golden Core, you should first consolidate your realm well.

Let's talk about anything else after you finish your seclusion."

"Alright!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Haoyuan didn't say much and, after acknowledging Master Binghuo, swiftly returned to his cave dwelling here.

Time flew by swiftly.

In an instant, a year passed.

During this year,

Ji Haoyuan not only thoroughly consolidated his initial Golden Core cultivation.

Moreover, he successfully refined the Primordial Star Sword.

On this basis, he upgraded all the Magic Techniques he had mastered earlier, one by one.

Now that he had achieved the Golden Core, both his insight and comprehension had undeniably risen far beyond what they were before.

From a high vantage point and with full comprehension, it was naturally not difficult to further perfect and even upgrade some past Cultivation Techniques and Magic Techniques.

Just as he sorted out and perfected everything he had learned and emerged from seclusion, the figure of Master Binghuo suddenly appeared before him.

Except, at this moment, Master Binghuo's face rarely showed a trace of anxiety.

Ji Haoyuan noticed her unusual state and immediately asked with concern:

"Senior Sister, has something happened?"

Master Binghuo hesitated for a moment but then nodded and said:

"I just received a message from the sect, there seems to be some kind of change within the sect.

But there's no detailed content in the message.

The most important thing is, that my heart is unsettled now, so there should indeed be something happening at the sect."

As a Golden Core Cultivator, sometimes inexplicable impulses aren't without reason.

Perhaps they foreshadow some events.

Ji Haoyuan obviously understood this point.

After thinking briefly, he immediately said to Master Binghuo:

"In that case, I'll go back to the sect with you and take a look.

Right now, with the Array I've set up here, I suppose no one should be able to notice for a while."

Master Binghuo glanced at Ji Haoyuan.

After a moment.

She didn't stand on ceremony and slowly nodded:

"Alright!

Let's go back together and have a look."

Moments later.

On the basis of the Kunwu Cyan Dragon Array, Ji Haoyuan added several layers of hidden restrictions.

Once everything was done, he and Master Binghuo no longer hesitated and turned into two streaks of Escape Light, swiftly heading toward the mountain gate of the Crimson Sunset Sect.

A few days later.

Inside the mountain gate of the Crimson Sunset Sect.

At this time, blood light was already filling the sky.

Streaks of Escape Light rapidly fled in all directions.

However, whenever the masters of those Escape Lights approached the periphery of the mountain gate, a layer of blood-colored light would stop them.

Immediately, from nowhere, blood-colored threads would sweep out, entangling their bodies.

All Defense Magic, talismans, and even Magical Artifacts and Spiritual Artifacts were useless in the face of those blood-colored threads.

In an instant, the bodies of those masters of the Escape Light would quickly wither, their skin losing its luster, their hair turning white, their figures hunched, and eventually becoming a pile of dust that dissipated.

Such occurrences had been happening for several days within the Crimson Sunset Sect.

Seen on a mountain peak filled with blood-colored Spirit Light.

A tall, old man with black and white hair was devouring strands of blood energy flowing towards him from mid-air.

One could clearly see that every time he devoured a strand of blood energy, the white in his hair would diminish slightly.

Along with that, his aura would also grow stronger.

"Haha!

This Blood Burning Life-taking Technique is indeed the Blood Demon Sect's unique Secret Technique, allowing one to restore their lost lifespan by absorbing the blood energy from other lives, and even to enhance their cultivation."

This person laughed heartily.

Beside him, a young man with Foundation Establishment cultivation looked at him in terror.

"Ma...Master, you..."

This young man was none other than the Celestial Spirit Root disciple from the Zhang Family in Nanning County, Zhang Zhilong.

And the old man opposite him was also no one else but the Supreme Elder of the Crimson Sunset Sect, Master Yanhuo, who had achieved the Golden Core Realm.

At this moment, upon hearing Zhang Zhilong's voice, his already blood-red eyes immediately looked over.

"Hehehe...

Zhilong, don't worry, I am here to make you a part of me.

If all goes well, your Celestial Spirit Root might even be transferred over to me.

Hahaha!"

As he finished the last sentence, Master Yanhuo was already smiling maniacally.

Seeing this, the terror in Zhang Zhilong's eyes could no longer be suppressed.

"Crazy...crazy! They are all crazy!"

He suddenly turned into an Escape Light, desperately trying to fly away.

However, before he could escape a few meters, a much thicker blood thread than the others fell on his body.
