My Master Knows It All

Whatever the outcome, it is not what I wish to see.

After all, this is not only the mountain gate of the Hundred Peaks Sect but also of our Ten Thousand Immortals Sect. I do not want to see our sect’s mountain gate being occupied by others again.”

The old woman gestured to the other five women, indicating they should remain silent, and then turned to look at Cao Zhen again, ”I will take action, but your Hundred Peaks Sect must pay a price.

My demand is simple: I will help you fend off those great teachings’ attacks, and your Hundred Peaks Sect must change its name to Ten Thousand Immortals Sect.”

Saying this, she pointed at the young woman who appeared earlier, ”She will become the Sect Hierarch of the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect.”

”Impossible!” Cao Zhen immediately shook his head, ”In that case, our Hundred Peaks Sect would become the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect.”

”That would be better than your Hundred Peaks Sect facing extermination, or having to abandon this mountain gate. You are a reincarnated Great Ability, and you should clearly understand that once a great teaching loses its mountain gate, its fortune greatly diminishes, making survival impossible. When the next Sect Tribulation comes, your Hundred Peaks Sect will surely be wiped out.

But if you change your sect’s name to Ten Thousand Immortals Sect, your Hundred Peaks Sect still exists, your disciples are alive, and your legacy continues.”

”I have other ways to ensure the survival of the Hundred Peaks Sect.” Cao Zhen spoke slowly, looking at the old woman, ”Our Eastern Province has more than just one True Immortal. If I pay a certain price, naturally, there will be True Immortals to take action. And no matter what the price, it will be less than what you require.”

”Turning to other great teachings?” The old woman shook her head again upon hearing this, ”You go to another great teaching for help, paying a price, and then what? Your Hundred Peaks Sect’s strength is evident to everyone, and they all know you have no True Immortal experts.

This time, you fend off the Death River Sect, but what if Black Spring Sect or Yellow Mountain Sect attacks next? Will you go to another great teaching for help again? After a few times, will you still have enough treasures to invite their help?

Moreover, how do you know they won’t set their eyes on your Hundred Peaks Sect, aiming to annex it?

However, allowing Yao Feng to become the Sect Hierarch changes things.”

The old woman pointed at the beautiful woman, ”She is already at the Peak Immortality Regainment Realm, and the only reason she hasn’t broken through is a lack of resources. As long as you make Yao Feng the Sect Hierarch and provide her with sufficient resources, don’t you have the Instant Millennium Pearl? With that treasure bead, she can surely break through into the True Immortal Realm within a hundred, or even fewer, years.

In that way, even if I fall, your great teaching will have a True Immortal, and then you can provide more resources for the Formation Spirit to restore some of the power of the Sky Encompassing Ten Thousand Immortals Star Gathering Formation.

Then, naturally, no one will be able to threaten this great teaching again.”

Cao Zhen still shook his head, ”But in that case, this great teaching won’t be called the Hundred Peaks Sect anymore, it would be the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect.”

”That is still better than being exterminated.” The old woman stood up abruptly, looking at Cao Zhen, and said word by word, ”You have no choice, this is the only path to survival for your Hundred Peaks Sect.

If you do not agree to my terms, our Ten Thousand Immortals Sect cannot recover, then I would rather watch your Hundred Peaks Sect perish, followed by our Ten Thousand Immortals Sect, and I will not take action!”

”Are you threatening me?” Cao Zhen rose angrily, ”I...”

Before he could finish his sentence, suddenly, the sky outside turned dark, then bright again, and the next moment, turned pitch black once more.

This way, outside the sky, day and night alternated wildly, repeating like this ninety-nine times. Finally, the sky turned completely black, no longer changing.

And in the void, sun, moon, and stars simultaneously appeared.

Heavenly Phenomenon?

Cao Zhen looked with astonishment into the distance, wondering what had happened to cause a heavenly phenomenon.

Meanwhile, the old woman from the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect had unknowingly descended from her seat, stepping to the window, looking out into the distance, and murmured to herself, ”Heavenly phenomenon, this aura, has someone broken through to the Guardian Immortal Realm?”

True Immortal Realm?

Has someone broken through?

Cao Zhen, full of surprise, looked towards the distance, seemingly the place where the heavenly phenomenon was most evident, in the direction of the Capital City.

Capital City?

Could it be, the Grand Preceptor?

The next moment, high above in the void, a beam of light suddenly shot up from the pitch-black distance, seemingly engulfing all the light in the world. Even at an immeasurable distance, even to someone of Cao Zhen’s cultivation base, just one glance caused his eyes to ache.

Following this, the light gradually softened, and at the same time, a familiar figure appeared in Cao Zhen’s line of sight.

Grand Preceptor!

Indeed, it’s the Grand Preceptor!

Is he breaking through to become a True Immortal?

But the issue is, wasn’t the Grand Preceptor in the Immortality Regainment Realm? Previously, the Grand Preceptor had even self-inflicted several wounds, causing his cultivation base to drop significantly.

Upon awakening, shouldn’t he first restore his cultivation base?

How is he directly breaking through to True Immortal?

Not only him, the entire Hundred Peaks Sect, the entire Eastern Wasteland, everyone noticed the heavenly phenomenon, noticed the figure in the light beam.

Hundreds of years ago, even mortals within the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty would have recognized this figure, but now, within the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, mortals who saw this figure just found it familiar, not knowing who it was.

But within the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, cultivators of some age, looking at the figure in the sky, let out a series of exclamations.

”Is that the Grand Preceptor?”

”It’s the Grand Preceptor. This heavenly phenomenon, could it be that the Grand Preceptor is breaking through to True Immortal Realm?”

”True Immortal Realm? How did he achieve that? The Grand Preceptor at this point should only be in the Immortality Regainment Realm, not even at the peak. How is he breaking through to True Immortal Realm?”

Under the watchful eyes of everyone in the entire Eastern Province, including cultivators, including all kinds of mortals, the Grand Preceptor crossed the air, taking a step onto the brilliant star river.

At this moment, all the light between heaven and earth converged onto him, making his figure all the more striking in the night, with divine light flowing around him. From afar, he seemed like an Immortal descending to the world.
