It was currently daytime in this area of Nirvana Heaven where Ancient Castle was located.

But in such "broad daylight," a figure suddenly appeared in the sky, which of course immediately alerted the guards in the castle.

"Who are you?! An explosive shout came from below without a hint of politeness. No matter how they looked at it, a fellow like him didnt look like a good person at all.

And Gu Nan indeed didnt come here to be a good person. He quickly flew down and suddenly stopped at a certain point. There was a thin barrier in front of him.

Not far away, Situ Jing hadnt even reacted to what happened yet; she didn't understand what Gu Nan was doing at all, while Jiang Tingwei was staring at Gu Nan's actions intensely.

Lou Wanying had a similar reaction. On the contrary, Jiang Zheng, whod kept silent all this time, suddenly said, "His judgment on the position of the barrier is very accurate. Hes absolutely not a cultivator who specializes purely in tempering his physical body."

The protective barrier was created from the power of laws. A cultivator who only tempered their physical body wouldnt possibly be able to find the position of the barrier.

"Lets just see what level his strength has reached" Jiang Tingwei's face also showed some helplessness when facing her younger brother. "We might be able to bask in his light this time."

Situ Jing heard some hidden meaning from the Jiang siblings conversation. She looked over just in time to see Gu Nan punch down.

There was no loud noise like she expected, nor were there any astonishing energy shockwaves. Just like this, the barrier that shouldve caused them a great deal of trouble was silently shattered.

"Sure enough, hes strong" Lou Wanying exclaimed in admiration, not seeming dispirited at all. Instead, he looked at Gu Nan with eyes that burned with fighting spirit.

"Get ready to attack!" Jiang Tingwei was still very clear-headed. She clearly still remembered the goal of her three-person team.

Sure enough, four figures simultaneously appeared the instant the barrier shattered, surrounding Gu Nan.

"Your Excellency, who are you? What's your grudge against my Ancient Castle?" One of them asked coldly. Clearly, the barrier broke so fast that they didn't even understand the situation yet.

If they knew that the barrier was shattered with a single punch, maybe none of the four would dare to show themselves.

As soon as his voice fell, another Void Cutter cultivators expression rapidly changed, because he clearly sensed the space surrounding himself be torn up instantly, and four figures simultaneously attacked.

It wasnt just one enemy, but five!

Jiang Tingwei's team attacked with two swords and one spear. Coupled with Lou Wanying's simultaneous attack, they all aimed at the three-person teams assassination target.

The weapon Lou Wanying used was very strange. It was somewhat similar to Gu Nan's shadow sword. It is a longsword formed from golden light.

However, the sword of shadow was developing in the direction of turning into laws, while Lou Wanyings golden sword seemed to trend towards becoming a tangible object. Extremely authentic metallic patterns could even be seen on it.

The Void Cutter cultivator who was ambushed by four people suddenly fell into desperate straits, but the one who moved the fastest wasnt actually those four, but Gu Nan.

Almost at the same time that the enemy started speaking, Gu Nan had grabbed an enemy beside him with one hand, pulled him in front of Gu Nan, and then punched him in the abdomen.

So under everyones surprised gazes, that poor Void Cutter didn't even get to speak before his body was instantly pierced through. Then he was casually tossed aside by Gu Nan like a dead dog.

Let alone their enemies, even Gu Nan's temporary teammates were surprised by his bold feat of killing Void Cutters like killing chickens. Situ Jings spear even missed its mark a little due to shock.

Fortunately, their opponent was ambushed by four people, so his escape route was completely blocked off. The space around him was also completely sealed, so he could only fight like a cornered beast.

Gu Nans expression didnt even change after using a single punch to kill a Void Cutter expert who couldn't react in time.

With his current strength, there really was nothing commendable about bullying a Void Cutter cultivator. At the very least, he was still a Star Ruler, although he had yet to receive any boost in power from his astral world.

In the blink of an eye, the enemy who was cornered by four people also suffered a fatal wound.

The Jiang siblings two swords seemed to be some kind of combination attack, which could not only cause damage but also froze the opponent in place.

Situ Jing, on the other hand, was the opposite. Her spear wasnt fast, but it had an amazing sharpness. Once it pierced the enemy, it would cause frightening injuries.

Their three-person team was formed through such perfect complementarity.

That opponent also saw this and knew that he had to escape as soon as possible, so he suddenly bit the tip of his tongue and spewed out a mouthful of essence blood, forming a bloody mist in front of him.

The bloody mist wrapped around the Jiang siblings two swords, forcibly creating an opening for him to escape. This was an opening that he risked his life to create!

This person no longer had time to think. He dashed away quickly to escape the encirclement, but he didn't expect a ray of golden light to be waiting for him.

It was Lou Wanying!

The golden sword fell abruptly, carrying an incomparably tyrannical pressure with it, which pressed the enemy down!

The Jiang siblings two swords suddenly changed, drawing a strange pattern in the air and shattering the enemys protective laws, creating the best opportunity for Situ Jing to deal the final blow.

Situ Jing also didn't let them down. Her large spear instantly pierced the enemy's chest, utterly decimating his insides and killing him completely.

The four sighed in relief. They turned to the side and saw that yet another Void Cutter enemy had fallen, while Gu Nan had grabbed the last one and was inquiring something.

"Where is the resource storehouse?" Gu Nan's voice was very calm, not sounding like hed just killed several Void Cutters at all.

"Hmph!" The other party gave a cold snort, his expression full of disdain. "I'm only able to have todays achievements because of the castle lords great kindness. If you want to kill"

Bang!

Before he could finish, Gu Nan had already slapped his head to pieces. It wasnt like the storehouse could run away, and these four might not necessarily be the only people to know of its location either.

Another Void Cutter expert died by Gu Nan's hands. His four teammates who stopped their actions on the other side all looked at him strangely.

There was an upper limit to the absolute power of Void Cutter cultivators. Even if some people were particularly strong, it was just because of the special application of their laws.

Just like Yue Jiu, Starry Ocean Pavilions Pavilion Lord who died at Gu Nan's hands earlier. His law of curses was enough to make many powerful figures in the same realm helpless against him, but it also had its own weaknesses.

But Gu Nan seemed to have surpassed this limit and reached a completely different realm from them.

Jiang Tingwei stared at him in dumbfounded shock, and a terrifying conjecture that didnt occur to her at first gradually appeared in her mind.

"Seal off this area to prevent someone from taking the resources and escaping." Gu Nan said expressionlessly, "Well go and find a guide."

"Okay." Jiang Tingwei nodded, surprised by Gu Nan's meticulousness, and motioned for her younger brother to carry out the blockade work.

When they plundered from other places before this, they never considered the possibility of weaklings stealing valuables.

But Gu Nan had experienced hundreds of battles in the game. He didnt know how many times he encountered situations where he finally killed the boss, only for weak mob monsters to snatch away the mission item. Of course he would guard against this.

Ancient Castle's situation was better than they thought. Clearly, not everyone was so tough and unafraid of death. Instead, someone came up to pledge his loyalty soon after they arrived.

It was a man who claimed to be "Wu Jing." He once worked as a manager in Ancient Castle and was familiar with its internal affairs. He skillfully led Gu Nan and the others to the resource storehouse.

"You seem like you do this kind of thing often?" Lou Wanying asked curiously.

Wu Jing smiled awkwardly. "Wars often break out in our area, and Ancient Castle has changed hands several times in recent years Many more people only come here for the resources."

Wu Jing, a Prodigious cultivator, actually wasnt too nervous in the face of five Void Cutter invaders. It seemed that he often encountered such situations.

The location of the resource storehouse was hidden well, but there was no decent protection. If the enemy could slaughter their way to the storehouse, then there wasnt much meaning to placing guards here.

Wu Jing soon handed over a list of items to everyone, and the two mission items, the death spring and the life-death stones, were especially extracted.

"We can take the extra resources to Zi Luo Heaven and divide them equally there. We can exchange them for origin crystals if we dont have a use for them." Jiang Tingwei expertly distributed the spoils. "You guys can check what you need."

"Theres no mistake! This is a high-quality death spring!" Lou Wanying nodded with satisfaction.

And a pile of sparkling and translucent white crystals were also piled in front of Gu Nan, but his face wasnt happy.

Because the Evil God Temple clearly told him that only a small part of these life-death stones barely managed to meet the standard.

Gu Nan picked out that portion of the life-death stones and found at most 5 units here, which was half of his own needs.

Clearly, it wasnt that easy to substitute something for 10,000 points.

"Not enough." He shook his head and looked at Jiang Tingwei. "Are there whereabouts of any life-death stones of higher quality and more quantity?"

"Its still not enough? Let me check"Jiang Tingwei said.

Before she could reply, Wu Jing next to her quickly cut in, "Does My Lord need top-quality life-death stones? There is one in the capital city of this domain. An auction will be held there at the end of the month, which is precisely to auction it off at a high price!"

Seeing that Gu Nan wasnt satisfied with the resources, he was afraid that this one would stay behind and continue to plunder the castle, so he hurriedly came up with an idea.

"Okay, you can find someone to lead the way." Gu Nan nodded.

Jiang Tingwei immediately spoke, "Then let's hurry over together. We'll use these resources as a price offset to bid for the life-death stone. If it's still not enough, we'll find a way."

Jiang Tingwei didnt like to take advantage of her teammates. She decided in her heart that this time it was a cooperation among three parties. Now that both of their parties had achieved their goals, there was no reason to leave Gu Nan hanging.

Taking these resources out as auction funds seemed to be a matter of course for her.

Lou Wanying also had no doubts and said firmly, "That's exactly how it should be!"

"No need." But Gu Nan waved his hand. "I wont be buying it."
