My Master Knows It All

Chapter 1461: Chapter 344_6

If I mentioned the Immortal Bi Yue of the Dragon Chant Sect, the consequences would be unimaginable!

Thankfully, I reacted quickly!

Nie Jie, thinking quickly in a moment of crisis, pointed to Cao Zhen and said, “If not for Sect Leader Cao, how could our Hundred Peaks Sect have its current momentum, with so many experts? Look, in the direction of the Four Treasures Peak, the disciples of Four Treasures Peak, except for Bei Yan and the youngest disciple, all the disciples are at the Golden Core Period Limit.

Moreover, I have also told you, Sect Leader Cao and Xiang Ziyu are both at the pinnacle of the Golden Core Period in physique and mana. They are the strongest in the Eastern Province, who dares to provoke our Hundred Peaks Sect!”

“Indeed.” Tu Zhuque looked at Cao Zhen, growing more satisfied the more he looked, nodded, and said, “Peak Master Cao has done well. The Hundred Peaks Sect has indeed taken a step forward in his hands.”

Nearby, several awakened Earth Immortal Realm individuals immediately laughed.

“Chief Tu, Peak Master Cao has done more than just well!”

“Yes, before we fell asleep, who could have imagined the Hundred Peaks Sect would reach its current heights?”

“That’s right, such a large number of Perfect Completion Golden Cores, so many at the Golden Core Stage, who could have imagined this before!”

“Peak Master Cao has indeed done a great job!”

Cao Zhen noticed that everyone still referred to him as Peak Master and not Sect Leader. These people had fallen asleep during the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, so they had not called him Sect Leader.

However, the fact that they didn’t call him Sect Leader also served as a reminder to him.

Cao Zhen cupped his hands towards everyone and said, “Ladies and gentlemen, we agreed back then that I would act as the temporary Sect Leader of the Hundred Peaks Sect during the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth. Now that this period has ended, and everyone has awakened, I think it is time to select a new Sect Leader.

Surely it wouldn’t be right to let someone at the Golden Core Stage continue as Sect Leader.”

He genuinely had no interest in being the Sect Leader, and he felt he was not suited for it; over the years, it was always Nie Jie helping to handle those matters.

“Choose a new Sect Leader?”

Upon hearing this, everyone looked towards Tu Zhuque and Chen Qingluan.

Among the awakened, the strongest were Chen Qingluan and Tu Zhuque, and theoretically, it should indeed be one of them to become the new Sect Leader.

But the problem was, everyone knew that these two never conceded to each other.

As they would put it, neither saw themselves as weaker than the other, each one could just point to the other individually.

To have them choose a Sect Leader from among themselves—who knows how long it would take.

Seeing the two about to clash, an awakened Earth Immortal Realm immediately spoke, “Let Peak Master Cao continue as Sect Leader instead.”

“Yes, I agree. Peak Master Cao has done a fine job as Sect Leader.”

“Indeed, our Hundred Peaks Sect is so strong now thanks to Peak Master Cao’s merits.”

“Peak Master Cao is also a reincarnated great ability, more than capable of being the Sect Leader!”

“Right, now that the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth has ended, I reckon it won’t be long before Peak Master Cao breaks through to the Wind Fire Tribulation, and before long, he will become an Earth Immortal! There’s no problem with Peak Master Cao continuing as Sect Leader.”

Hearing this, Ru Wenlin and Zhong Xinyi quickly chimed in, “Indeed, it’s best if Peak Master Cao continues as Sect Leader.”

They thought, if anyone dared to call them the Hundred Peaks Six Evils again, their sixth would actually be the Sect Leader of Hundred Peaks Sect!

Even though Tu Zhuque and Chen Qingluan were inclined to serve as Sect Leader for a period, seeing everyone unanimously wanting Cao Zhen to continue as Sect Leader, they both nodded in agreement, saying, “That’s fine too, let it be Cao Zhen to continue as Sect Leader of Hundred Peaks Sect. Everything will be discussed again when our Sect Leader awakens.”

Cao Zhen knew they were referring to Bai Fengzi, not himself, as the Sect Leader.

However, now, since the time everyone has been awakened has passed with no further awakening, it is evident the first batch of awakened individuals is indeed these people.

According to his observations, he discovered that the first batch of awakened people is likely all at the first layer of the Earth Immortal Realm, the Ten Thousand Life Stage.

Besides Bai Fengzi, there were three other familiar individuals who hadn’t awakened.

Gu Chengyu, Ai Yunqi, and Lv Chaoqiong.

Lv Chaoqiong, being someone of interest at the Hidden Dragon Observatory, naturally had a higher cultivation, while Ai Yunqi had gained enlightenment from a formation map refined in the past. Although this enlightenment did not allow her to break through on the spot, it clarified many things for her, leading her to break through to the second layer of the Earth Immortal Realm, the undying and imperishable stage, before the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth began.

Gu Chengyu similarly gained much understanding due to this and temporarily broke through into the second layer of the Earth Immortal Realm.

Hence, they had not awakened yet.

This indicates that after the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth concluded, the first batch of awakened individuals were merely at the first layer of the Earth Immortal Realm.

In this case, what is there to worry about?

It’s merely the first layer of the Earth Immortal Realm.

The pills I temporarily sealed are nearing completion; once they’re ready, my disciples and I can quickly break through into the Wind Fire Tribulation. Then, after a little consolidation within the Wind Fire Tribulation, we can prepare to break through the Wind Fire Tribulation and enter the Earth Immortal Realm.

My disciples and I are all at the Golden Core Period Limit, and after entering the Earth Immortal Realm, how could we possibly be inferior to those in the Earth Immortal Realm?

Besides, I possess a top-notch spell!

A spell far stronger than the divine skills I currently master!

By then, the Hundred Peaks Sect will still possess the strongest combat power in the world!

What needs to be done now is to quickly let the pills take shape.

Cao Zhen quickly looked at everyone and cupped his hands, saying, “Ladies and gentlemen, you have just awakened. As the Sect Leader of the Hundred Peaks Sect, I should theoretically host a banquet and detail the major events of our Hundred Peaks Sect over these years. However, although our Hundred Peaks Sect appears stable now, it is fraught with various dangers, with several great teachings eyeing us eagerly, just waiting for the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth to end to seek revenge on our Hundred Peaks Sect. Therefore, we must quickly elevate our strength, I need to swiftly return to conduct alchemy, and then break through into the Earth Immortal Realm as soon as possible. Thus, I shall not accompany you much longer.

If there is anything you wish to know, you can ask Vice Sect Master Nie Jie. To my shame, over these years, Vice Sect Master Nie Jie has been responsible for the various sect affairs of our Hundred Peaks Sect.”

After speaking, Cao Zhen swiftly flew in the direction of Four Treasures Peak, leaving Tu Zhuque and the group of Earth Immortal Realm individuals utterly bewildered.

What did Cao Zhen just say? They have some enemies, and those enemies are great teachings? Not one great teaching, not two, but many great teachings?

What has Cao Zhen done to offend so many great teachings?
