My Master Knows It All

959: Chapter 259_5 959: Chapter 259_5 “That’s because we’re nominally Daoist couples, if you go somewhere, how can I not go?

Moreover, I followed you to a relic site, and in the end, not only did I miss out on any treasures, but I also lost a Nirvana Pill.”

Li Ke felt more and more that she was at a loss.

She looked at Cao Zhen and called out, “No, you have to give me some compensation.

Long Aotian, the senior, imparted a Cultivation Technique to you, surely he gave you Divine Skills too, right?

So, give me a few Divine Skills as compensation.”

“Divine Skills?

All right.” Cao Zhen agreed very readily, after all, giving Divine Skills would still enhance the strength of the Hundred Peaks Sect, so he wasn’t losing out.

Li Ke was momentarily stunned again.

When had Cao Zhen become so easy-going, agreeing so readily?

Knowing Cao Zhen’s personality, shouldn’t he be seizing the opportunity to extort a hefty sum from her?

When she had initially asked Cao Zhen to pretend to be her Daoist companion, he had demanded a large number of Spirit Stones.

Now, Cao Zhen was agreeing to her request without asking for anything.

Could it be…

“I’m telling you, don’t try to fob me off with some commonplace Divine Skills.”

“Who do you think I am?

Rest assured, what I’ll give you will definitely be top-tier Divine Skills, the ones from Long Aotian, the senior.” Cao Zhen felt helpless.

Did she really see him as that kind of person?

The look in Li Ke’s eyes turned increasingly strange as she gazed at Cao Zhen.

He was being overly generous today.

Everyone knew that Cao Zhen was extremely greedy.

How did he become one of the Hundred Peaks Six Evils?

Wasn’t it because he went to the Immortal Soldier Workshop’s Divine Soldier Tomb, acquired a slew of Divine Weapons, and then sold them to the various peaks?

He even sold scriptures to other peaks, essentially fulfilling the last wishes of predecessors within those peaks.

He could carry out such deeds, which showed just how greedy he was.

Even during the years Cao Zhen was not in the Hundred Peaks Sect, his disciples continuously operated businesses, and the talisman-selling business of Four Treasures Peak had earned countless Spirit Stones over the years.

And now, Cao Zhen was giving away Divine Skills and Cultivation Techniques without asking for anything in return.

This guy must have struck it rich.

Li Ke then recalled a scene she had witnessed in the relic site.

Back in the relic site, everyone saw Cao Zhen and the fourth prince of the Qi Tian Dynasty contending for the final treasure before Cao Zhen entered the palace.

Clearly, Cao Zhen had obtained the ultimate treasure.

The relic site, which caused a Heavenly Phenomenon across the Eastern Wasteland and even had the power to exceed the limits of the Golden Core Stage during the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, could bring forth a Tribulation Array, and possess the strength to oppose the Tribulation Array—how immense that final treasure must have been!

Li Ke had always wanted to know what treasure Cao Zhen had acquired within that relic site.

But Cao Zhen never spoke of it, and she felt it wasn’t her place to ask.

After all, there are many questions one can ask, but there are many secrets in the world of Immortal Cultivation that one simply cannot inquire about casually.

Even merely asking can provoke a frenzied attack from the other party, and such incidents are not uncommon.

If she were Cao Zhen’s true Daoist companion, she could ask, but since their pairing was a façade, it wasn’t her place to probe.

Moreover, she knew that even Cao Zhen’s own disciples seemed unaware of what treasure their master had obtained.

All they knew was that the treasure was of great importance to the remnants of the Qi Tian Dynasty.

Cao Zhen’s attention returned to the rice paper in front of him.

As he wrote out the Red Sun Wheel True Solution, he asked, “By the way, in the past fifty years, has our Hundred Peaks Sect, aside from my few disciples, brought forth any prodigy with the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection?

Or have we taken in any genius disciples?”

“No, in these years, although Four Treasures Peak has produced several Golden Core Stage Phenomenon Merge cultivators with significant phenomena, only nine or eight Phenomena at most.

We haven’t given birth to another disciple with the Ten Phenomena Great Perfection Golden Core.

After all, such a landmark is incredibly rare.

If we don’t count Four Treasures Peak, in this generation of the Hundred Peaks Sect’s disciples, there are only three with the Ten Phenomena Great Perfection Golden Core, and even that count might not include Liè Yàn.

That should give you an idea of how rare it is.”

Li Ke paused slightly before continuing, “However, I believe it won’t be long before our Hundred Peaks Sect will gain two more geniuses with the Ten Phenomena Great Perfection Golden Core.”

Cao Zhen asked with genuine curiosity, “I know about Liao Youdi, but who is the other?

Who is it?”

“Shen Lid of Flying Immortal Peak.

Do you remember when Bei Yan and I went out to recruit disciples, we brought back two children with Immortal Bodies from the same family, and at the time, their mother was still pregnant.

We brought her back to the Hundred Peaks Sect, right?”

Cao Zhen nodded and said, “I remember.

Are you saying that this Shen Lid is the child from back then?”

“Exactly,” Li Ke confirmed with a nod.

“After the child was born, we immediately examined him and found he too possessed an Immortal Body, a top-tier one at that.

He is a Prime Unity Immortal Body.”
