CHAPTER 208: 207, CONFLICT ARISES! (2/4)

Bai Peng gazed at the familiar delicate face, and his already displeased expression immediately froze as a fiery intention brewed in his eyes!

When the steward informed him of what had just occurred in the Outer Sect, he imagined it might be people from Flying Fish Island or Qingkong Mountain. He expected them to come to cause trouble, which is why he came in person.

He didn’t hesitate to put aside preparations for the final stage of the Ten Talents Trial.

But he hadn’t expected that the troublemaker turned out to be the Sect Leader of the Immortal Sect, Wen Ping. The Ten Talents Trial assessment just knocked down their Inner Sect’s top disciple, causing Extreme Realm Mountain to give up a seat for the Ten Talents.

If there were a Ten Talents Token, he wouldn’t be so angry, but the only Ten Talents Token of Extreme Realm Mountain was in the hands of the Young Sect Leader.

He definitely couldn’t obtain the Ten Talents Token from the Young Sect Leader.

Just like that, these days have directly turned Extreme Realm Mountain into a laughingstock, and now the main culprit, Wen Ping, is atop Extreme Realm Mountain!

Bai Peng walked towards Wen Ping along the path the crowd opened for him, speaking in a cold voice as he walked, "Sect Leader Wen, it’s been a while since we last met. I didn’t expect your courage to have grown this much."

Luo Qianye muttered to himself: This is bad!

Color changed for Luo Qianye, as well as those around him.

Apparently, this so-called Sect Leader Yang wasn’t really Sect Leader Yang but someone with the surname Wen!

And who, apart from the Sect Leader Wen Ping of the Immortal Sect, who has brought such shame to Extreme Realm Mountain, could make Bai Peng wear such a cold face?

Wen Ping remained unfazed, responding, "Elder Bai."

When Bai Peng reached the front of the crowd, he clasped his fists in respect towards the two members of the Three-star Sect, changing his furious demeanor to one of schadenfreude, just like those around him before, "Sect Leader Wen, you’ve been issued a bounty by Chairman Shan Long, offering 50 White Crystals for your head. I didn’t expect you’d still have the nerve to come here!"

Hearing this, Wen Ping smiled helplessly.

No wonder this guy had no reverence upon seeing him, and even brought up the bounty, it turns out he didn’t know that Wei Qianjue had died by his hand. Indeed, Extreme Realm Mountain was so preoccupied with the Ten Talents Trial that they left everything else unattended.

The Young Sect Leader died, and nobody has noticed yet, nor has anyone gone to investigate in Cangwu City.

This reminded him of a past world, where a country called Brazil focused so much on hosting the World Cup that it neglected education, healthcare, and people’s livelihood, leading to public protests.

Simultaneously, Wen Ping glanced at the restless individuals around him.

It wasn’t until Luo Qianye gave them a look that they stabilized.

After smiling helplessly, Wen Ping responded, "I came up the mountain along with everyone else to take a look. I’m quite strict when it comes to cultivating disciples. So, I can’t tolerate even a speck of sand in my eyes."

"Sand... Well, then I must ask, what’s flawed about our Thunder Pool in the Inner Sect of Extreme Realm Mountain that appears as glaring specks of sand in your eyes?"

Bai Peng coldly questioned.

Wen Ping immediately replied, "Relying on external objects for cultivation, there will be advantages, but there will also be drawbacks. Without Thunder Attribute cultivation techniques, yet forcefully using electricity for cultivation. While cultivation acceleration yields results, it also severs the profound path for Body Refining Cultivators. This should be the greatest flaw of the Thunder Pool."

As soon as Wen Ping said this, the people around started looking at those within the Thunder Pool.

Upon seeing this, Bai Peng immediately shouted coldly, "Nonsense! This Thunder Pool has contributed over thirty Profound Realm experts to our sect over hundreds of years. This is what has allowed our Extreme Realm Mountain to remain undefeated in East Lake. Now you say the Thunder Pool has ruined the profound path for Body Refining Cultivators. Sect Leader Wen, are you intentionally causing trouble?"

But just after he finished rebuking, the people from the Three-star Sect who had been watching the show finally spoke up.

First to speak was a middle-aged charming woman, her cultivation was surprisingly at the Middle Profound Realm, and her words were of high praise, "Sect Leader Wen indeed has a keen eye! To actually notice the drawback of practicing in the Thunder Eel."

The middle-aged man beside her, however, spoke with a tone of suspicion, "Don’t know if it’s true or false."

"Believe it or not,"

As soon as Wen Ping finished saying that, a voice came from beside him.

"False!"

Bai Peng immediately responded, quickly explaining, "The two of you, do not listen to the nonsense of a young brat. He’s merely a Sect Leader of a Starless Sect. If he could see the drawback of cultivating in the Thunder Pool, he would have already joined a major force."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Peng didn’t wait for the two from the Three-star Sect to trust his words, and directly shouted again.

"Elder Hua, what are you waiting for!"

Elder Hua nodded immediately.

"Understood!"

After a brief conversation, the crowd quickly moved aside, retreating far away, fearing to get inadvertently caught up in the conflict.

Elder Hua extended his hand, and with a bang, the Meridian Gate on the left side opened, a blue halo spreading out.

"Sect Leader Luo, do you want to help him?"

Luo Qianye smiled helplessly, just about to continue explaining to avoid conflict when he was stopped by a sentence from Wen Ping.

"Elder Yu, as soon as he makes a move, you make a move."

Previously standing unimpressively behind Wen Ping, Yu Mo took a step forward.

Bang!

The blue Meridian Gate opened as they listened to the command.

Luo Qianye stepped back only then, not expecting that the man following Wen Ping was actually in the Profound Realm!

Then it dawned on him that since Wen Ping himself was already in the Profound Realm, it was normal for the Immortal Sect to have Profound Realm members, right?

At this moment, Elder Hua, however, smiled indifferently, then raised his hand. A gigantic wave of Vein Qi surged towards Yu Mo, three zhang high, causing the surrounding people’s faces to change.

The impact was immense enough to simultaneously crush Wen Ping, the three others, and a dog.

Accompanying the wave of Vein Qi was Elder Hua moving with his spear, charging straight at Yu Mo.

"Daring to come to Extreme Realm Mountain to cause trouble, you’re asking for it!"

As the words fell, the wave of Vein Qi arrived!

Clang clang!

The Wandering Sword was simultaneously unsheathed.

Bang!

With a sound of Vibrating Vein Sound, the sword rose, and dozens of sword auras were immediately slashed out.

Boom!

A huge explosion was heard.

The wave of Vein Qi was instantly shattered by the sword auras, turning into veiling energy waves that made the Body Refining Cultivators around sway unsteadily.

Yet after the sword auras broke the Vein Qi wave, they didn’t stop, instead heading straight for Elder Hua. In the blink of an eye, after the Vein Technique was broken, Elder Hua didn’t have time to think, and simply raised his spear.

Bang!

After a crisp Vibrating Vein Sound, the gun suddenly emitted a trace of ripple, heading towards Yu Mo’s sword auras.

Elder Hua thrust out seven or eight consecutive shots with his gun, coldly stating, "Shocking Spear Skill, a Yellow Level Middle Grade Vein Technique, I’ve cultivated it to Great Success, take it!"

Indeed, just as Elder Hua said.

The power of the Yellow Level Middle Grade Vein Technique was indeed significantly different from the previous wave of Vein Qi, as the diffuse Vein Technique ripple made the sword auras suddenly seem to warp, disappearing without a trace upon being stabbed by his gun.

At this moment, Yu Mo simply smiled faintly.

Seemingly unbothered by the approaching Elder Hua.

Wandering Sword slashed again, another ten or so sword auras rose amidst the lightning, but this time the sword was gradually returned to its sheath.

Swish!

Swish!

More than ten sword auras flashed like lightning towards Elder Hua, colliding with the spear lights he thrust out and the Vein Qi attack. Yet this time, the sword auras were like crushing wheels breaking through the spear technique.

The central sword aura directly aimed at Elder Hua’s chest.

Elder Hua’s face changed, immediately holding his spear in front of his chest, but the next moment, he still flew backwards.

The whole person flew three or four zhang away.

Plop!

Fell into the Thunder Pool.
