My Master Knows It All

Chapter 1601: Chapter 368_2

Everyone around nodded in agreement at the sound; the conditions were indeed very favorable.

Being able to cultivate amidst the immortal energy, just this point alone was highly attractive. As for Cao Zhen’s proposal, after the Hundred Peaks Sect selected their thirty treasures, there would be no issue at all with others choosing afterward.

The trial the Hundred Peaks Sect was attempting to pass was that of becoming a Great Teaching’s Sect Tribulation!

The rewards for such a Sect Tribulation were incredibly terrifying, comparable to rewards from a million-year Sect Tribulation. So, it was natural for the Hundred Peaks Sect to first choose thirty treasures.

Just as Cao Zhen finished speaking, a burly man with a flushed face in the crowd immediately spoke in a booming voice, “In that case, I, Lao River, will go.”

As his voice fell, to prove his prowess, a massive Immortal Mountain appeared behind him. Rivers snaked around the Immortal Mountain, with faint dragon roars echoing from the rivers.

The Immortal Mountain soared to a height of ninety-one zhang.

Cao Zhen nodded slightly, clasping his hands toward him and said, “Thank you, Dao Companion Lao River.”

Soon, another voice rang out, “The two of us brothers can also go.”

Following the voice, two identical men from the high ranks of the Dragon Chant Sect stepped forward, releasing their Immortal Mountains.

Compared to Lao River’s Immortal Mountain, theirs were shorter, barely reaching ninety zhang in height.

Immortal Bi Yue’s face lit up with joy as she saw the two speak. She quietly transmitted to Cao Zhen, “These two are Senior Brother Feng Bing and Senior Brother Feng Huo. Although neither of them could individually match Senior Brother Lao River, they excel at fighting together. If they team up, even two Senior Brother Lao Rivers might not be their match!”

She worried that Cao Zhen might discriminate against the two for their Immortal Mountains being just ninety zhang and thus hurriedly reminded him.

Hearing this, Cao Zhen nodded slightly, bowing to the two, “Thank you, Dao Companions.”

In the next moment, a crisp female voice rang out, “It’s perfect timing, I’m free recently, and I would also like to cultivate in the immortal energy. I’ll go as well.”

Turning his head, Cao Zhen saw Immortal Shuanghua, who had previously been bargaining with him, speaking up.

As her voice fell, a ninety-three zhang tall Immortal Mountain emerged behind her.

The Dragon Chant Sect Hierarch was surprised as he saw Immortal Shuanghua speak up. He was very familiar with her and understood her nature; she disliked leaving home. He never expected that she would also want to go to the Hundred Peaks Sect and spoke quickly, “Since you’re going, Shuanghua, I won’t stop you.

However, considering the Dragon Chant Sect currently has experts stationed at various perilous sites, and now with the four of you heading to the Hundred Peaks Sect, our high-end combat strength is somewhat lacking.”

As he spoke, he glanced around, though his words were unspoken, the meaning was clear.

We’ve already sent four experts; the rest of you shouldn’t go. If you go and there’s an unexpected event, our Dragon Chant Sect would be short on high-end combat power.

Although nobody would be reckless enough to attack the Dragon Chant Sect, what if some other unforeseen event occurs?

What if some peerless relics emerge, or a problem arises with the Demonic Sect, giving them an opening?

Even though the Dragon Clan within the Holy Mountain would guard the Dragon Chant Sect, they couldn’t command those dragons to fight outside.

The remaining high-ranking members of the Dragon Chant Sect nodded but did not say anything further.

Cao Zhen nodded slightly. With the Dragon Chant Sect sending four people, and including Bi Yue, there were already five. That was quite a number.

Later on, they could have Xiang Ziyu recruit some experts from the Yin Yang Sect and the Cloud Reaching Sect. The Dragon Chant Sect, as a Great Teaching, could contribute five people; the other two Great Teachings together should be able to provide five experts. That shouldn’t be difficult.

The immortal energy within the Hundred Peaks Sect would last only until the Sect Tribulation. Any delay now would mean one less day of opportunity to cultivate in the immortal energy.

No one lingered; the Dragon Chant Sect promptly produced the resources Cao Zhen required.

Then they set off, piloting their flying boat directly back to the Hundred Peaks Sect.

Along the way, they encountered no unexpected events; no one laid an ambush for them.

Which was only to be expected. Cao Zhen’s current prowess was known throughout the Eastern Province. Moreover, traveling to the Dragon Chant Sect from afar was clearly to gather experts for the Sect Tribulation.

With Cao Zhen and the Dragon Chant Sect’s experts, only those with reckless abandon seeking death would provoke them.

Soon, they flew to the Hundred Peaks Sect.

Initially, after the Hundred Peaks Sect was enveloped in a golden light, some curious onlookers approached, but upon realizing the light repelled outsiders, they quickly left.

The Hundred Peaks Sect was about to face the Sect Tribulation; to force entry now would be to forge a deadly enmity!

Yet, even as they approached the Hundred Peaks Sect’s exterior, they saw two figures: Yu Tuoyu, disguised as a man, and another unfamiliar face.

“Yu Tuoyu at the Hundred Peaks Sect? What brings her here? Has something happened to the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty?” Cao Zhen’s heart stumbled as he swiftly descended from the flying boat, landing before Yu Tuoyu.

Before he could speak, Yu Tuoyu had already bowed to him, saying, “Greetings, State Preceptor!”
