The Tianlan Saint Master would not give Gu Sheng much time. Daoist Xiushan decided to do everything he could to delay.
He turned and left the fifth floor, striding toward the entrance of the Book Collection Pavilion, intending to stall the Tianlan Saint Master there.
Daoist Xiushan used his Divine Thought to keep an eye on Gu Sheng’s cultivation status, particularly his physical body.
He wanted to know if the Heaven-breaking Fist could enhance Gu Sheng’s physical strength. If Gu Sheng mastered the Heaven-breaking Fist, Mu Zhiyong would not be a threat.
Daoist Xiushan was somewhat familiar with Gu Sheng’s strength; though Gu Sheng’s cultivation was currently inferior to Mu Zhiyong’s, thanks to his intelligence and some special methods, his chances were not small.
An hour later, the Tianlan Saint Master indeed appeared at the entrance of the Book Collection Pavilion.
He looked at Daoist Xiushan and asked frostily, "Where is Gu Sheng?"
Daoist Xiushan’s expression remained unchanged. He bowed and said, "Holy Master, Gu Sheng is inside, deeply focused on his cultivation. It has not yet finished, so it’s not appropriate to disturb him now."
The Tianlan Saint Master snorted coldly, "Hmm, it’s been so long, and he’s not out yet. Could something have gone wrong."
Daoist Xiushan quickly said, "Rest assured, Holy Master, Gu Shengtian is exceptionally talented. His cultivation this time will surely break through. Please grant some more time."
The Tianlan Saint Master paced back and forth at the entrance, growing increasingly impatient.
He paced and spoke, "Something big has happened outside, and the situation in the Hidden Dragon Mountain Range is unclear. I don’t have much time to wait for him here."
Daoist Xiushan was anxious but could only continue to persuade, "Holy Master, Gu Sheng’s cultivation this time is critically important. It would be a pity if it were interrupted halfway. Please reconsider."
The Tianlan Saint Master stopped and looked at Daoist Xiushan, hesitation showing on his face.
If he forcibly interrupted Gu Sheng, and Gu Sheng truly had unparalleled potential, it would be a missed opportunity.
Inside the Book Collection Pavilion, Gu Sheng was still immersed in his cultivation.
His aura grew stronger, and the power of the Heaven-breaking Fist seemed to be manifesting.
Daoist Xiushan stood at the entrance, both sparring with the Tianlan Saint Master and using his Divine Thought to sense the changes in Gu Sheng.
But the Tianlan Saint Master still hadn’t barged into the Book Collection Pavilion. He looked at Daoist Xiushan and said coldly, "Fine, I’ll wait another hour for him. After an hour, whether he’s finished or not, I will go in."
Daoist Xiushan breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said, "Thank you, Holy Master."
The Tianlan Saint Master turned away from the Book Collection Pavilion, hands behind his back, silently waiting.
In the blink of an eye, an hour passed.
The Tianlan Saint Master asked Daoist Xiushan indifferently, "Where’s that kid Gu Sheng?"
