This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick!-Chapter 348 - 75: Four Symbols Seal and Conquer, Military Evil Invincible
Chapter 348 -75: Four Symbols Seal and Conquer, Military Evil Invincible
May 13.
Iron Blade Mountain.
Today marked the 72nd day since the Iron Blade Sect had been sealed off. Such a thing had never happened since the founding of the sect.
To everyone in the Iron Blade Sect, this was an immense disgrace!
At the martial arts training ground on the mountaintop, hundreds of disciples practiced their blade arts as usual, shouting with each strike:
“Kill—”
Perhaps it was to vent the frustration in their hearts, the cries of “kill” sounding from the training grounds grew louder and fiercer by the day!
Elder Wang stood at the edge of the training ground, watching the fiercely enthusiastic disciples, his eyes filled with worry.
Moments later, taking advantage of a rest period for the disciples, he ascended the platform, his presence charged:
“Good! Very spirited! Keep it up!”
After encouraging the disciples, Elder Wang left the training ground with his head held high, then his expression turned solemn as he entered a great hall to wait.
More than an hour later, Gu Xianfeng, clad in a black robe and exuding a mighty aura, emerged from the back of the great hall.
He would immerse himself in closed-door cultivation at this time each day. If Elder Wang needed to see him, he would wait inside this hall.
“Sect Leader Brother.”
Elder Wang greeted Gu Xianfeng.
“Is something the matter?” Gu Xianfeng asked directly.
Elder Wang, with a worried face, replied, “Sect Leader Brother, how long is this seclusion going to last? If this goes on, I’m afraid the disciples below can’t hold out.”
“If they can’t endure this little hardship, how can they speak of reaching the peak in martial arts?”
Gu Xianfeng’s face was indifferent.
“But if this continues, where will our Iron Blade Sect’s face be?” Elder Wang said anxiously.
Gu Xianfeng placed his hands behind his back and walked to the entrance of the great hall, looking up at the sky:
“The face of our Iron Blade Sect has always been earned through the blade. It’s just a seclusion, what, can’t you fight anymore, or can I not lift my blade? What we lose today, we’ll take back with the blade in the future.”
Elder Wang fell silent. After a moment, he calmed down and bowed to Gu Xianfeng:
“You are right, Brother.”
Then he lowered his voice and said, “But what about our dealings with the other party? Could they be discovered?”
Upon hearing this, Gu Xianfeng’s expression changed slightly, and he turned to look at Elder Wang: “We’ve always been very secretive; it shouldn’t get exposed.”
He paused, then continued:
“Even if it does get exposed, it’s just a bit of interest exchange, will Bian Jingru really act against our Iron Blade Sect over such a trifle?”
Since the sect had been sealed, all contact with the outside world had been cut off. Hence, Gu Xianfeng was not yet aware of the investigation team’s experiences in Datong Prefecture or the immense pressure they had brought to the prefecture during this time.
Elder Wang nodded in response.
A martial arts master already carried significant weight, much more so for Gu Xianfeng, who possessed the Cloud Soaring Divine Power. After the battle with Western countries, the Da Lan Dynasty placed even greater importance on martial artists with flying capabilities and anti-air abilities, thus making Gu Xianfeng’s influence weightier than that of an ordinary martial arts master!
Logically, Elder Wang felt that Gu Xianfeng’s confidence was justified, but for some reason, he still felt a shadow in his heart.
Suddenly, Elder Wang noticed that the sky had darkened considerably, as if an invisible lid had been placed over it, giving a faint oppressive sensation.
Before he could take a closer look, Gu Xianfeng, who had been standing by his side, stepped out of the great hall and vanished on the spot.
“Sect Leader Brother!”
Elder Wang hurriedly followed.
Gu Xianfeng moved to the plaza outside the great hall, raising his head to look at the sky, his expression darkening.
At this moment, the sky had become even dimmer, and the invisible oppressive feeling grew even more tangible. Not only characters at the Tao Foundation Stage like Gu Xianfeng and Elder Wang, but even ordinary disciples could distinctly sense the anomaly.
With one step, Gu Xianfeng soared into the sky like a shooting star, and almost immediately, a large bundle of blue clouds formed out of thin air.
Using his Cloud Soaring Divine Power, he reached hundreds of meters into the sky in the blink of an eye.
In the air, the oppressive feeling was over a hundred times stronger than on the ground!
The higher Gu Xianfeng went, the greater the pressure on him became, as if countless stars in the universe were converging and pressing down on him!
This was an effect created by magic, but it wasn’t merely a mental suppression. It genuinely influenced the surrounding air currents, as well as the invisible forces converging from all directions pressing down on Gu Xianfeng.
Below the Possession Stage, magic could only have mental effects on people. At the Possession Stage, one could attach an Implant to objects, refining them into Magic Artifacts, which allowed magic to transcend the mental and start affecting matter.
What Gu Xianfeng was experiencing was the maneuvers of not just one, but several Great Mages at the Possession Stage!
He turned his head toward the east, where a Flying Sword was swiftly moving, its blue light swirling like a dragon.
To the west, there was a copper drum surrounded by fierce winds, its sound like a tiger’s roar.
To the south stood a White Jade Ruler, around which a sea of fire blazed, turning the sky red.
And to the north, a mirror hung high in the air, the area around it covered in frost, as if space itself had frozen.
“Four Symbols Star Constellation Sealing!”

Gu Xianfeng clenched his teeth and stated each word clearly.
He recognized these four items as Magic Artifacts. The Flying Sword from the east was the Magic Artifact of the Vice President of the Righteous Law General Institute, Jiang Jin, which had once saved Li Fei.
The remaining copper drum, White Jade Ruler, and mirror were respectively the Magic Artifacts of the other three Great Mages at the Possession Stage in the Righteous Law General Institute.
These four individuals had joined forces to set up this formation, clearly aimed at Gu Xianfeng, to prevent him from escaping with his Cloud Soaring Divine Power.
