My Master Knows It All

1177: Chapter 298 1177: Chapter 298 Due to Immortal Bi Yue’s influence, many cultivators within the ancient ruins had heard of Cao Zhen and knew him as a master highly skilled in Musical Rhythm.

But what they couldn’t have imagined was that Cao Zhen’s attainment in musical rhythm had already reached such a lofty height!

The one competing against Cao Zhen was the young master Qu Wu, who is recognized as one of the strongest five masters of Musical Rhythm in the entire Eastern Province during the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, even considered the strongest among them.

Yet now, Qu Wu had lost so swiftly.

In the heart of the ruins, whether they understood Musical Rhythm or not, everyone’s eyes were wide with surprise,

“How did he…

How did he achieve this?

How could his mastery of musical rhythm be so profound?”

“I understand Musical Rhythm, yet I’ve been affected by his performance.”

“Is this a piece that could possibly come from this world?”

“Look, he is still playing.”

Qu Wu was dumbstruck as he watched Cao Zhen, still engrossed in playing, filled with confusion, incredulity, and a murderous intent…

Just as his murderous intent began to surface, suddenly, a figure appeared before him.

Immortal Bi Yue stood between him and Cao Zhen, blocking the murderous intent he exuded.

“You’ve lost.” Immortal Bi Yue stretched out a hand, pointing at Qu Wu, “Hand over the item.”

Qu Wu’s face turned even uglier.

He agreed to stake six treasured pagodas because he was fully confident.

Yet, he could never have expected Cao Zhen’s musical rhythm to reach such a level.

Those damn six treasured pagodas, in collaboration with the Zhui Hun Demon, their mutual struggles upon entering the ruins, searching everywhere, had yielded only these six pagodas thus far.

And now, they all had to be handed over to Cao Zhen.

He really didn’t want to hand them over to Cao Zhen, if it was someone else, he might truly renege on the bet.

The Zhui Hun Demon comes from a Great Teaching, but he isn’t from any great Teaching.

In fact, he could be considered a Loose Cultivator, except his mentor Old Man Wu Shuang is extremely famous, and moreover, his teacher is famously protective of his disciples.

If he refused to hand it over, once his teacher awoke even if the other party came after him, his teacher would still stand by him.

But he was facing Immortal Bi Yue, and Bi Yue was a being at the Golden Core Period Limit.

He was well aware of Bi Yue’s temperament; if he dared to default, Bi Yue would absolutely chase him relentlessly to the ends of the world.

Moreover, he still hoped to have Immortal Bi Yue as his Dao companion in the future.

How could he renege on the bet?

He had no choice but to hand over these treasured pagodas.

The Zhui Hun Demon also didn’t default.

His Sect, the Soul Breaking Sect, was also a Great Teaching.

Such a public wager made in front of so many wouldn’t be reneged on by him.

Watching as Immortal Bi Yue took away all six treasured pagodas, a look of disappointment emerged on his face.

With Bi Yue taking all the pagodas, the opportunity to make a move was slipping away.

If it was Cao Zhen who took all these treasured pagodas, he could definitely find a time to make a move, slaying Cao Zhen to take back all the pagodas.

However…

Cao Zhen still had six treasured pagodas on him, if chaos ensued here, he could still make a move, killing Cao Zhen and stealing the six pagodas.

His gaze shifted toward Cao Zhen.

And Cao Zhen remained immersed in striking his instrument.

Amidst the ruins of the Sound Doctrine Church, he continued his relentless playing, as if he suddenly found himself transported from the banks of Yishui River, arriving at the Sound Doctrine Church, during the time of the Sect Tribulation.

Suddenly, the next moment, the entire Void began to shake wildly, a fierce wind blew from afar.

Cao Zhen’s spirit jolted, awakening from his absorption, and the sound of whistling wind reached him constantly from all around.

From all around, cries of alarm also kept arising.

“A fierce wind, such a powerful wind!”

“From all directions, winds are gushing forth.”

“Such a powerful wind!”

In everyone’s view, from a distance, winds roared and swept forth, carrying trees big enough to require several people to embrace them, and great stones as large as mountains, along with countless dust devils coming from afar.

Some even wondered whether entire mountains were being blown apart by the gale.

It seemed that the entire ruins were engulfed in fierce wind, and wherever the wind passed, it seemed as if everything on the ground was blown upwards, swept along by the gale.

The fierce wind drew nearer and nearer, and gradually, these winds began to spin on their own, forming into tornadoes that reached for the heavens, seemingly connecting the earth with the high heavens.

As the fierce wind approached, countless specks of dust and dirt, broken walls, clumps of wild grass, trees, were all blown into the air and even more countless stones, like hidden weapons, whirled and shot about under the force of the fierce wind.

The winds from all sides converged at the same time in the midst of these ruins.

In an instant, a colossal tornado formed amidst the ruins, and Cao Zhen felt the howling wind as though it was about to lift him and sweep him up into its midst.

Behind Cao Zhen, the Nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pills flashed instantly, circulating Mana, his body pressing downward, anchoring him to the ground, preventing his being whirled away.

The ground around him was stripped away by the ascending dust in layers, and the entire world turned into a gray darkness.

Suddenly, an explosion sounded.

Then, the sounds of dragon roars and beast howls, the noises of Divine Skills brushing past the air, all manner of sounds erupted.

Someone had made a move, and it wasn’t just one person!
