CHAPTER 1625: CHAPTER 372:

"It must be so!"

Everyone quickly realized the crucial point, each taking a sharp intake of breath.

"In this way, who can pass the trials inside? It’s very rare for one person to excel in two or even three paths. But the Hundred Peaks Sect is a mixed school, and naturally, the relics’ trials are also mixed.

No one knows how many mixed schools there are in the world. Who can guarantee proficiency in all? If one enters and faces a trial they are not good at, they will perish inside."

"No, it should be said that upon entering, the odds are high that one will encounter a path they are not good at."

"In entering these relics, do we just stand by and watch?"

"Such relics... Cao Zhen, it seems only Cao Zhen from the Hundred Peaks Sect can seize the treasures within!"

"Yes, only Cao Zhen. Cao Zhen is a reincarnated great ability, and it seems there’s no path he isn’t good at!"

Everyone instantly thought of Cao Zhen, who was said to have already taken several houses! Even after the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth had ended, Cao Zhen’s fame in the Eastern Province remained great, even after the era ended, many awakened Earth Immortals inquired about Cao Zhen.

They also heard that Cao Zhen once, in the Eastern Wasteland, single-handedly debated with another sect, winning all debates, as if there was no path Cao Zhen wasn’t good at!

Someone sighed, exclaiming, "Now it seems this relic is prepared for Cao Zhen!"

"Except for Cao Zhen, I’m afraid no one can obtain the treasures in these rooms."

"The Hundred Peaks Sect is indeed lucky, if not for Cao Zhen, even if the sect came in full force, it’s feared they might not get a single treasure!"

"The trials in the rooms keep changing; how difficult it is to get the treasures!" said a man with a firm face in the crowd, "No wonder it’s prepared for sect tribulation of a Great Teaching, obtaining the treasures from this relic is much harder than from the previous Five Sounds Sect and Heaven Prayers Sect relics."

The more dangerous the relic, the harder it is to get treasures, meaning the treasures are more precious!"

"Indeed, this relic, the difficulty of obtaining treasures makes the treasures naturally more valuable. Looking now, it seems Cao Zhen has the ability to acquire all the treasures. With stronger treasures, the Hundred Peaks Sect’s chances of passing the sect tribulation increase!"

"Actually, Cao Zhen may not necessarily get all the treasures," someone in the crowd whispered, "I refuse to believe it; even if Cao Zhen is a reincarnated great ability, he can’t be skilled in all paths.

There are too many mixed schools in the world; some are rarely known. Cao Zhen might not even have heard of those paths. What if he encounters something he doesn’t understand?"

With those words, those around fell into silence.

The person was right; Cao Zhen might indeed encounter something unknown, then what?

No one knew how terrifying the attacks in the rooms were, but Cao Zhen, existing at a height of a hundred zhang on an Immortal Mountain, even if danger arose, it wasn’t certain that Cao Zhen would die.

Soon, the secrets of the houses on the mountain peaks spread within the relics.

Those who came to the relics intending to seize some treasures to sell to the Hundred Peaks Sect were disappointed.

In this way, how could they take the treasures from the mountain peaks?

Normally, if they couldn’t get the treasures directly, they would snatch them from those who got them, but Cao Zhen, existing at a terrifying hundred zhang Immortal Mountain, plus the Hundred Peaks Sect sent many experts with Immortal Mountains at ninety zhang this time.

Rob Cao Zhen? That’s courting death, isn’t it?

They couldn’t go to the houses on the mountains; they could only go elsewhere to search for other treasures.

Originally, everyone headed for the mountain peaks, while the Hundred Peaks Sect people searched outside the peaks without contesting them; but not long after, everyone started looking for treasures outside the peaks.

Yet a hundred mountain peaks now had only Cao Zhen going from peak to peak, taking down one room after another; the trials inside seemed not to affect him much.

Even with the Way of Blade Techniques, he’d won quite a bit through his disciple; he could pass safely through anything like lyre, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, Scholar Path, Buddhist Path, and military path without trouble.

Gradually, fewer and fewer houses remained on the hundred mountain peaks.

This relic was also a small thousand-world, besides mountains, there were deserts and rivers here.

Yan Yourong and Duo Duo followed their master’s orders, staying behind Linghu Gudu since entering this small thousand-world; they went wherever Linghu Gudu went.

Linghu Gudu took out a compass and proceeded in its direction, slowly leading the three farther into remote areas, and along the way, they saw no shadows of people or strange beasts.

In front of them now was nothing but yellow sand.

Linghu Gudu had joined the Hundred Peaks Sect not long ago, at least Duo Duo wasn’t familiar with him and didn’t initiate conversation, while Yan Yourong couldn’t help but ask, "Junior Brother Linghu, I remember you used that compass back in the Golden Core Stage, right? Now, we’re already in the Earth Immortal Realm; everyone has given up Divine Weapons and started using spells, does that compass of yours still work?" She and Linghu Gudu had known each other for quite some time.
