CHAPTER 205: 204. EXTREME REALM MOUNTAIN WITH A DOMINATING HEART

Judging from Luo Qianye’s behavior, Wen Ping knew that the news of Wei Qianjue’s death had not yet reached Huangli City. Regarding the speed of this news transmission, Wen Ping didn’t know whether to be glad or to feel regretful.

Clearly there are Upper Realm Great Demons capable of traveling ten thousand miles in a day, yet the speed of news spread is almost akin to ancient times in his previous world. Of course, it’s possible the news has reached Huangli City but hasn’t had time to get to Extreme Border Grassland.

Whether it’s the former or the latter, Wen Ping feels pretty good, as at least his trip will have fewer troubles.

If he knew that Fengyuan City at Extreme Border Grassland was the headquarters of Extreme Realm Mountain, he would certainly not have come here. The Young Master of Extreme Realm Mountain was killed by him; exposure is a matter of time, so why come here just to invite trouble?

What if the truth gets out in the next few days?

Although he brought the Evil Spirit Knight along, not fearing Extreme Realm Mountain, he genuinely only wants to complete his task on this trip.

As soon as Wen Ping set off, Luo Qianye had no choice but to follow, still not daring to call Wen Ping by his name directly.

"Sect Leader Yang, wait for me!"

However, because of this shout, many people turned their attention to Wen Ping. Of course, they didn’t recognize Wen Ping, just curious about who could walk so closely with Luo Qianye. A Two-star Sect Leader with the surname Yang seemed unheard of.

Upon seeing Wen Ping’s youthful age, everyone initially found it strange, and later disregarded it, walking past Wen Ping indifferently.

Because Wen Ping looked far too young, with none of the air of a Sect Leader.

As the crowd gradually made their way toward Extreme Realm Mountain, Wen Ping noticed that none of those heading up the mountain were below the 13th Realm. Even if one was below the 13th Realm, they’d be driven away by the Guardian Disciples along the way.

Since Wen Ping and Qin Mo were with Luo Qianye, no one came to drive them away.

Soon enough, they arrived at Extreme Realm Mountain.

With everyone following a Profound Realm Elder, they strolled around the Main Hall and Sub-Palace, while the Elder eagerly introduced Extreme Realm Mountain to everyone. From the founding Sect Leader to the second and third generations...

In sum, over the centuries, the hundreds of Sect Leaders of Extreme Realm Mountain were introduced one by one by him.

No one grew tired of listening.

Those who came are from One-star Influences, or some ordinary Two-star Sects, and for them, the story of Extreme Realm Mountain is a legend. Especially having produced over seventy Middle Profound Realm individuals in a thousand years is an East Lake legend.

Wen Ping wasn’t very interested in this, so he whispered to Luo Qianye beside him, "What’s all this rambling about?"

At this moment, the Profound Realm Elder at Extreme Realm Mountain gave Wen Ping the impression of a tour guide, pointing here and telling you to look... then pointing there and telling you to look...

Upon hearing this, Luo Qianye smiled helplessly and replied in a low voice, "Sect Leader Yang, what exactly did you come up this mountain for? If they hear what you said, it could be problematic."

Daring to call others rambling in their own territory, Wen Ping was indeed the first.

"Just to take a look, but what I see is too superficial. Main Hall, Sub-Palace... who doesn’t have them?"

Luo Qianye smiled at this remark.

"Ha ha, Sect Leader Yang sure speaks frankly and swiftly. To be honest, today we are merely guests, being able to ascend the mountain is already a privilege. It’s like a garden tour; the real protagonists are in the forefront now."

"The real protagonists?" Wen Ping leaned forward to take a look at the head of the crowd, sensing an unusual aura.

Luo Qianye continued, "Those are Three-star Sect people, but which sect specifically is unknown. In short, that sect sent a message to East Lake, wanting to cooperate with East Lake’s Two-star Sects. Extreme Realm Mountain, due to being the closest, cleverly arranged this performance of sect touring. The Three-star Sect cares little about which of the three giant-level influences is slightly stronger or weaker; to them, all are weak, so going to any of them for cooperation has a high probability. At the same time, Extreme Realm Mountain shows off and flaunts to all of East Lake, appearing strong, making influences like us maintain awe toward Extreme Realm Mountain."

"Once they cooperate with a Three-star Sect, wouldn’t it immediately disrupt the entire East Lake’s structure?"

Being a giant-level Two-star Sect, Extreme Realm Mountain is already close to pseudo-Three-star, and Three-star influence. Once any party receives support from a powerful entity, becoming the strongest in East Lake is not impossible.

Luo Qianye nodded in agreement, "Of course!"

Wen Ping continued to ask, "Aren’t people from Qingkong Mountain and Flying Fish Island coming to sabotage?"

After speaking, Wen Ping instinctively glanced around, and Qin Mo, upon hearing Luo Qianye’s words, couldn’t help but search around for people from Flying Fish Island. As if wanting to do something.

In Wen Ping’s view, Extreme Realm Mountain does have a big ambition to dominate East Lake.

Son, wants to be Anomalous Profound.

Father, wants to seize an opportunity during the Ten Talents Trial.

Luo Qianye replied, "No one would do such a thing, whether it’s Extreme Realm Mountain’s territory or not. The three major influences maintain their own boundaries; once conflict occurs, it’s detrimental to everyone, only leading to mutual devastation."

Just as they were speaking, the highlight of the event arrived.

Apparently sensing some people were growing impatient, the Elder of Extreme Realm Mountain spoke up, "Our Sect Leader mentioned, since we are all people of East Lake, and have seniors from Bright Mirror Lake present, naturally the Cultivation Area should be open for everyone to see."

Everyone immediately rejoiced and followed the path that Extreme Realm Mountain’s Elder stepped onto.

In no time, they reached outside a courtyard.

The courtyard was vast, akin to a plaza, likely easily accommodating ten thousand people.

Inside the courtyard, more than a thousand pitch-black Ironmen stood imposingly.

Extreme Realm Mountain’s Elder pointed to the courtyard and said, "This is the Cultivation Area for Outer Sect disciples—the Ironman Court. These Ironmen exceed half a foot in height, though made of iron, they were crafted by master artisans. The materials used are Ink Iron from beneath East Lake Water, possessing high agility. Outer Sect disciples cultivate here, honing their bodies and enhancing resilience, while also training response speed."

As soon as the words fell, the crowd burst into discussion,

"Indeed, it’s much more effective than mere combat between two disciples."

"Extreme Realm Mountain is wealthy enough to have crafted over a thousand Ironmen with Ink Iron. Reportedly, the annual production of Ink Iron is only ten thousand kilos. Each Ironman must weigh around a thousand kilos, right?"

"Not a surprise from a sect with a thousand-year legacy; investing so much for Outer Sect disciples’ sake!"

...

Amid their discussions, the Elder of Extreme Realm Mountain immediately curled his lips in a smile and quickly continued, "Not only that, but we also provide the disciples with medicinal baths and medicinal diets. Medicinal baths are for disciples to soak in; within two hours, even the most fatigued body can recover completely. If you get injured in the Ironman Court, there’s medicinal food ensuring you heal overnight and awaken the next day full of vigor."
