My Master Knows It All

940: Chapter 256_4 940: Chapter 256_4 In an instant, every hair on his body stood erect, and his eyes were filled with terror.

Cao Zhen!

How did he appear here?

This place was known only to himself—how did Cao Zhen find it?

He himself had led people to attack the Hundred Peaks Sect before.

On those few occasions when he encountered Cao Zhen, he was lucky to have survived.

But this time…

“Overbearing Sky Demonic Master, Demonic Master, save me, Demonic Master, save me quickly!” The Eclipse Demon knew full well that he was no match for Cao Zhen and now his only hope for survival was to call upon the Demon Lord to appear again, to scare Cao Zhen away just like last time.

Cao Zhen, watching the still Eclipse Demon, could guess even with his toes that the Eclipse Demon must be seeking the Overbearing Sky Demonic Master again, but unfortunately, he was the Demonic Master.

The Eclipse Demon was now worthless; it was time for him to atone for his past deeds!

Behind Cao Zhen, nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pills emerged.

In that moment, the air around him seemed to explode instantaneously, with a series of detonating sounds, as a tremendous, seemingly boundless pressure surged towards the Eclipse Demon.

A look of utter horror flashed in the Eclipse Demon’s eyes—Nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pills, Cao Zhen had made another breakthrough!

Moreover, why did just nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pills give him such a sense of oppression?

Under his terrified gaze, ten rainbow lights suddenly shot out from one of the Golden Pills behind Cao Zhen.

At this moment, different sounds echoed throughout the void.

Some sounds were ethereal, full of immortal aura, some were crisp, some deep, some like celestial music, some like the terrifying roars of fierce beasts from the Ancient Era…

The ten sounds converged together, clashing against one another in the void, forming visible sonic waves.

The sonic waves passed through the air, and instantly, these sounds seemed to play in the Eclipse Demon’s heart, shattering his internal organs and meridians in an instant.

This sound!

Cao Zhen, how could he…

And how could he know all ten demonic sounds, he…

Just as the Eclipse Demon’s doubts began to surface, his thoughts came to an abrupt end.

His body exploded from inside out, leaving only his head, which flew up into the air.

“I kept your head because I want to take it and pay tribute to the deceased predecessors of the Hundred Peaks Sect!”

Cao Zhen collected the head of the Eclipse Demon and turned to fly towards the Hundred Peaks Sect.

He had thought he would be the last to return, having traveled the farthest distance and even made a detour to the Capital City to kill the Eclipse Demon.

But to his surprise, upon returning to the Hundred Peaks Sect, he found that Xiang Ziyu, that guy, hadn’t come back yet.

After some inquiries, he learned that after completing his mission, Xiang Ziyu had a fierce battle with the Axe Madman, with no victor between them.

Both refusing to accept defeat, they each resumed their cultivation, planning to battle again when they were better prepared.

So, Xiang Ziyu wouldn’t be returning for the time being.

Actually, with all the experts of the Hundred Peaks Sect gathered in the Immortal Sect, Xiang Ziyu’s absence wasn’t a big issue.

In the time that followed, after the arrival of the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, the world, which had been in chaos, began to stabilize.

Even the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty began to suppress the various rebel factions and bandits that had emerged.

Cao Zhen was also surprised to find that as the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty steadily regained stability, the power of the ‘Era Prosperity Power’ within his Prosperous Age Picture Record grew stronger as well.

“Although I haven’t drawn the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty in my Prosperous Age Picture Record yet, the Hundred Peaks Sect is within the Dynasty’s territory, belonging to the Dynasty.

Hence, as the Dynasty prospers, my Prosperous Age Picture Record also grows stronger.

That must be the reason.”

Cao Zhen continued teaching within the Hundred Peaks Sect.

He also began to prepare pills for Little Duo Duo and Zhu Peng.

However, he only crafted the first batch, then explained to Yi Sheng how to proceed with pill-making, leaving Yi Sheng to do it.

After some time, he realized that the world was indeed settling down.

The Sect Leader of the Bleeding Tears Demon Sect had not reappeared since his escape, prompting Cao Zhen to finally decide to leave the Hundred Peaks Sect.

He wanted to take a look around the world.

Long ago, when he first arrived in this world, he wished to travel and see its various places, but even though he had wandered about, he never truly, earnestly observed the world, to experience the lives of different people, different lives.

Now that the world was temporarily at peace, and since he wanted to understand prosperity better, he truly needed to travel everywhere and experience different lives.

Initially, he experienced the life of a commoner while still keeping an eye on the Hundred Peaks Sect’s situation, gradually changing his contact frequency from once a week to once every half-month, then once a month, and eventually once a year.

Gradually, he even forgot about the Hundred Peaks Sect, forgetting his identity as a cultivator.

He completely regarded himself as an ordinary person.

Over the years, he had lived different lives, different existences.

He had been a peddler, a farmer, a herbalist who traversed mountains and valleys to pick herbs, and even a blacksmith who specialized in fitting horseshoes.

East Sea…

The Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty had seas not only to the south but also to the east.

Cao Zhen, over the years, stopping and going, had unknowingly reached the East Sea, becoming an ordinary fisherman there.
