My Master Knows It All

1322: Chapter 321_5 1322: Chapter 321_5 “What’s so impossible about that?” Xiang Ziyu said with a smug look on his face.

“Who am I?

I am the protagonist.

Can I really be like others?

Certainly not, my speed was simply too fast.

The treasure wanted to flee, but it didn’t have the chance before I rushed in and seized it.

As for the other treasures, no matter what they are, since I’ve entered this relic, the final treasure will surely be mine.

I’m telling you all…”

Immortal Bi Yue and Jiu Yin were still listening earnestly, while Cao Zhen had already started walking towards the front, uninterested in listening to Xiang Ziyu’s spiel about being the protagonist.

While walking, he said, “The Five Sounds Sect is facing a Sect Tribulation, the relic descended by Heavenly Dao is one of Musical Rhythm.

This Heaven Prayers Sect, however, I do not yet know what kind of relic Heavenly Dao has sent down.”

Upon hearing this, Jiu Yin immediately explained: “The Heaven Prayers Sect’s strongest cultivation technique is about borrowing power from heaven and earth, hence the name Praying Heaven.

But originally, about ninety thousand years ago, shortly after the Heaven Prayers Sect passed its last Sect Tribulation, their Sect Hierarch felt it was becoming difficult to borrow more power from heaven and earth.

Moreover, he also obtained an ancient legacy in a dangerous land, and then they changed to cultivate demonic techniques.

The Heaven Prayers Sect was no longer part of the Righteous Path as a Great Teaching but became classified under the Demonic Sects.

Their demonic technique is related to fresh blood, yet is different from the Bleeding Tears Sect.

They perform blood sacrifices to gain supreme demonic energy.

As for this relic descended by Heavenly Dao, I also do not know what it is.

Right, and that cauldron…”

Jiu Yin pointed to the blood-colored bronze cauldron in Xiang Ziyu’s hand and said, “Although we agreed earlier that the treasures we obtain should be equally divided among the four of us, this treasure was acquired by Xiang Ziyu alone, and we did not contribute.

We shall not claim a share.”

Her saying so was not truly out of generosity, but because this is the rule in the Cultivation world.

If several people join hands to seek treasures but you haven’t contributed any effort, and another person obtains the treasure with their own skills, then naturally they will not share the gains with you.

After all, with or without you, the person would have obtained the treasure.

So why should they share with you?

Immortal Bi Yue nodded slightly, then looked at Cao Zhen and asked in a low voice, “So, how do we proceed from here?”

Last time in the Musical Rhythm relic, it was Cao Zhen who led the way, telling them where to go, and indeed they obtained a great harvest.

Thus, entering the relic this time, she still planned to follow Cao Zhen’s lead.

However, Cao Zhen looked at Xiang Ziyu and said, “Zi Yu, you take the lead, we’ll follow behind you.” This wasn’t the Musical Rhythm relic, and he really didn’t know which way to go.

But previously he had heard from Ling Xi and Yan Yourong that every time Xiang Ziyu went out and entered a relic, he always returned with great spoils.

Since he didn’t know the way, he might as well follow Xiang Ziyu.

Upon hearing this, Xiang Ziyu immediately perked up: “Master, you’ve finally made a wise decision once, knowing to follow me, the protagonist.

Rest assured, I am the protagonist, and following me will surely yield a great harvest.”

Cao Zhen didn’t respond, but he glanced discreetly at Jiu Yin, regarding Xiang Ziyu who was in the throes of a ‘middle two’ syndrome.

He wondered how Jiu Yin came to fancy Xiang Ziyu and whether she now harbored thoughts of escaping.

Cao Zhen didn’t know how his disciple chose their path—whether it was simply wandering about on a whim.

Regardless, he followed Xiang Ziyu in flight, and along the way, they didn’t encounter anyone.

As they flew, suddenly, the roars of wild beasts came through.

“Are there fierce beasts?”

Xiang Ziyu immediately changed direction, carefully flying towards the source of the sound.

Before long, in their field of vision, the form of a fierce beast appeared.

It was a huge scorpion snake with a body length of about fifty feet, each part exuding a terrifying might.

Around it, more than thirty people were attacking it.

All of these individuals were at the Perfect Completion Golden Core stage, and none were ordinary Perfect Completion Golden Core practitioners.

The weakest among them were at the Profound Level Perfect Completion Golden Core stage, and there were two who were close to the Golden Core Period Limit, as well as six top-tier Perfect Completion Golden Core practitioners.

Beside the disciples, there were also four corpses strewn about, some split in half, some bodies torn into pieces, and some with shattered skulls…

The people from the Heaven Prayers Sect!

Cao Zhen’s gaze moved back to the giant scorpion snake.

Despite being besieged by the crowd and having some of its scale armor turned over, it was still fiercely attacking everyone, not showing the slightest sign of defeat.

Golden Core Period Limit!

Cao Zhen showed an expression of surprise.

This was his first encounter with a fierce beast at the Golden Core Period Limit.

He looked strangely at Xiang Ziyu.

This kid, just wandering about randomly, and then came across a beast at the Golden Core Period Limit?

And these people from the Heaven Prayers Sect, why are they attacking a fierce beast at the Golden Core Period Limit?

Cao Zhen looked past the fierce beast, but he did not spot any rare treasures or herbs.

Suddenly, a ferocious expression appeared on the scorpion snake’s face.

Its body resembled more of a venomous snake, but at the end of its tail, there was a long, poisoned sting!

At this moment, its tail stood tall, with the sting protruding out.

Under the sunlight, it reflected a strangely chilling glow.

In just a flash, the poison sting turned a bright green.
