Chapter 178 Benefitting All
The peak was now ready, and Lin Fan was now the leader of the tenth peak. It was a significant change to his life, as now he would have a territory belonging to him, and he would now be able to try for the position of patriarch.
Lu Daosheng went over to Zhan Hongdi. He was filled with worry, yet helpless at the same time. “Senior Brother. Are you alright?” Zhan Hongdi said no more and looked at the figure on the side with anger swimming in his eyes. He let out a sneer and left the arena for Great Emperor Peak.
He did not expect Lin Fan to be this cruel. How powerful is he to kill Jun Wutian so quickly? And how am I supposed to make a return in the future when there’s such a big difference between me and him?
Cultivate. I must cultivate with all my might. I will get back what I have lost in the future.
Fang Ji came over to Lu Daosheng. “Senior Brother is Senior Brother…”
Lu Daosheng shook his head and sighed. “Senior Brother Zhan has been defeated this round. If he can overcome the hardship, he will be able to reach the highest level of cultivation. But if he’s unable to rise from defeat, it will be the end of Great Emperor Peak.
Fang Ji looked over at Great Emperor Peak, which was standing upright amongst the nine other peaks. He did not expect Zhan Hongdi to be defeated by Lin Fan. All ten peak leaders had strong egos. Previously, Jun Wutian defeated Zhan Hongdi by stepping on him. Now, Zhan Hongdi had lost again. It must have taken a toll on Zhan Hongdi to be defeated twice.
And just like what Lu Daosheng said, if Zhan Hongdi was able to make it through this time period, he would soar higher than ever. If not, that would be the end of Great Emperor Peak.
On the other hand, Wan Zhongtian lost his ability to retort. A powerful cultivator didn’t scare him, but a fierce one did. Lin Fan was exactly the type of person that Wan Zhongtian feared. Now that he was the tenth peak leader, it would be impossible for Wan Zhongtian to suppress Lin Fan.
He took another glance at Invincible Peak with envy and turned into a ray of light, disappearing on the spot. The seven other peak leaders might not be happy about this. Jun Wutian might’ve been extremely talented and better than the other nine peak leaders, but life was unpredictable. It was hard to tell who the most powerful peak leader would be in the end.
Being in a great mood, Lin Fan waved his hands generously. He had the manner of a senior brother. “Junior brothers, if you are interested, you may come with me for a tour of Invincible Peak.”
Hearing Lin Fan, the spectating disciples were more than excited. They were dying to take a look at the peak that Elder Tian Xu had made personally. Now that Senior Brother Lin had personally invited them to take a trip up the peak, they were over the moon.
They could already smell the scent of the odd plants and feel the effects of the scent even if they were standing so far away. How will it be if we are on the peak itself?
“Will Senior Brother Lin replace Jun Wutian in the future and become the first of the ten peaks?”
“Of course. Senior Brother Lin has already defeated Jun Wutian, thus he’s already the first of the peaks now. I’m just curious about how the other seven peak leaders will feel when they return and realize the situation.”
“Now there are so many changes taking place to the sect. It feels like we’re in a different era.”
“I’m currently at Body Tempering Stage Nine. If I make use of the Body Tempering Pool that Senior Brother Lin mentioned, I might be able to level up and break through to the Earth Star Border Realm. By then, I will be able to become an inner disciple if I pass the test.”
“Congratulations. That’s not the case for me, as I’m still currently in Body Tempering Stage Eight. But with Senior Brother Lin’s Body Tempering Pool, I’m confident that I will be able to break through to Body Tempering Stage Nine.”
“Let’s go and follow Senior Brother Lin.”
Under Lin Fan’s invitation, a crowd followed after him. Lu Qiming and the rest were elated to see Lin Fan so powerful. They were happy that, not only had Lin Fan achieved strong cultivation, everybody was able to benefit from it too.
Amongst the crowd stood a woman who was currently staring at Lin Fan blankly. After some time, she left without a sound.
There was nobody who took notice of her.
“Senior Brother, it’s not a good idea to teach your disciple in this manner,” Huo Rong, who was currently standing next to Tian Xu, said.
“How is it not a good idea?” Elder Tian Xu laughed. “I think that it’s a great idea. Invincible Peak is a good name. There will be nobody who is capable of taking him down, and the Magnificent Flame Sect will become a sect that’s invincible thanks to him.”
“Senior Brother, you’re overestimating your disciple. Just by himself?” Huo Rong did not believe and did not wish to. “You can’t make a sect powerful with just one person’s effort, it requires-“
“No, Junior Brother, it’s you who has cultivation that’s too weak to feel it. When you have reached a certain extent, it not a problem to turn a weak sect into the strongest sect in the world. I believe my disciple will make it there,” Tian Xu said with confidence.
“Senior Brother, you have already come in contact with that extent?” Huo Rong asked, color draining from his face.
“Come in contact?” Tian Xu laughed. “I have never felt it. It might seem to be just a step away from me, but it is as far as the distance between heaven and earth. The patriarch might be blowing up right now. If the Divine Religion dared to take a risk to bring Jun Wutian’s corpse away no matter what, then there must be stories that we are unaware of.”
He then took a glance at Ge Lian. “The Jun Wutian that you supported is a traitor to the sect. I hope you have better eyesight from now on and start supporting the right person.”
He finished speaking and disappeared from the spot.
Ge Lian stood on the spot, face red with anger. He invested a huge sum in Jun Wutian, and now his investment had gone down the drain. It was such a pity, but if Jun Wutian were not caught, it would have brought even greater trouble to the sect in the future.
As for Tian Xu’s words, he was still able to keep his anger in. If it was about twenty years ago, he would have already started fighting Tian Xu.
Ripples could be seen when the disciples stepped onto the floating stairs. Invincible Peak, which was originally silent, was currently bursting with activity. Exotic beasts let out loud cries as if they were welcoming their peak leader.
The group of disciples was acting as if they were in a great exhibition. They looked around excitedly. One will only know how a peak is really like if they visit Invincible Peak. Comparing to the other nine peaks, Senior Brother Lin’s peak is way grander.
They made their way up the steps to the peak that was piercing through the clouds. It was like making their way to the heavens.
“This is a Spirit Monkey.”
“This is a Snow-White Deer.”
The disciples followed after Lin Fan. They realized that there were numerous beasts standing next to them. It was as if these beasts were intelligent. They stared at the disciples and stood in a manner as if they were bowing. Are they welcoming us?
“Is that the Body Tempering Pool?” a disciple asked, pointing at the pool that was located halfway up the mountain. There were many beasts cultivating in the pool. It was the best place to cultivate at after all.
Lin Fan might not have made any comments, but he was aware of everything that was going around him. I already had high expectations for it, but now it seems that I have underestimated my master’s love for me.
Why would a peak that’s made out of so many treasures be ordinary?
When they reached the peak, Lin Fan stood on top, looking into the distance. He couldn’t see the end. All he could see was the white clouds surrounding the peak. He felt that there was an improvement to his scope.
The surrounding disciples went over to take a look too. They saw many things that were new to them.
How powerful must Elder Tian Xu’s blood be? How much power does it hold that it could make an ordinary peak into a paradise?
Lu Qiming was too shocked by the fact. When he finally realized what was going on, he went to Lin Fan with all smiles. “Senior Brother Lin, you have finally made it here.”
Looking at his huge peak, Lin Fan felt that it was a waste to be staying up here alone. “Junior brothers, come here and stay with me from today onward. There is strong earth energy here, and it would be a great help to cultivate.”
I will never forget those who are close to me. As for the crazy Qin Shan, it’s not a good idea to leave him in the inner disciple’s residence Who knows when he might go bonkers and start killing others randomly? It’s a better choice to put him here.
Most importantly, during the night, I will not be afraid if there are people who are here to accompany me.
Hearing Lin Fan, Lu Qiming and the rest were so touched that they were about to cry. We knew that Senior Brother would not abandon us! they said in their hearts.
“Junior Brother Zhang, you guys are now in the Earth Star Border Realm?” Lin Fan took a close look at Zhang Long and Huang Fugui to realize that they had now broken through to the Earth Star Border Realm, while Lu Qiming and the rest were now in Body Tempering Stage Nine, about to break through to the Earth Star Border Realm too.
“Senior Brother Lin, if not for that pill that helped to improve our constitutions, we would not be able to break through to the Earth Star Border Realm at such a fast speed. It might have taken ages,” Zhang Long said with all smiles.
Yin Xiaotian and Gao Dazhuang, who were always on par with each other, were happy that they had been improving a lot recently. They had yet to break through to the Earth Star Border Realm, but to them, it would happen sooner or later for sure. Their cultivation had already increased a few stages within a month.
“Junior Brother Lu, if you guys make use of the Body Tempering Pool, it will take no time till you break through to the Earth Star Border Realm.”
Lin Fan did not expect that the Gold Essence Pill would be of such great use. However, he had also given them some other pills along with the Gold Essence Pill. Taking the pills would obviously allow them to cultivate more easily and gain more.
My cultivation increases quickly too. It is just that I have more things to prepare. I need to take care of every cell and increase the levels of my skillsets. I will get my foundation to the limit so that, when I break through to the Heaven Star Border Realm, my power will be superb.
He took out the pills that he had gotten from robbing corpses and gave them to Lu Qiming and the rest.
When Lu Qiming and the rest saw the pills, they were struck dumb. They waved their hands in disagreement. They would have accepted it if it were pills of the Mortal class, but since they were pills of the Mystic class, it was like an arm and a leg to them.
With their financial state, it was already difficult for them to exchange for one, let alone the fact that Lin Fan was giving so many to them.
“Take it. We are already this close, why would I mind about these pills? They aren’t much use to me,” Lin Fan said. Mortal and Mystic class pills were like sweets to him; he only took them to have a taste.
High-grade Mystic-class pills were made with the ability to support a cultivator to the peak of the Earth Star Border Realm, but since Lin Fan was just too strong now, it was not going to make any difference to him. Only an Earth-class pill would be useful to him now.
The disciples who came to take a tour around the peak were green with envy seeing the scene.
They did not expect Lin Fan to give Lu Qiming and the rest so many pills. How generous he is!
If he gave that to us, we would be willing to guard him for life!
Just then, a disciple hurried over. “Senior Brother Lin, the dragon feast is done.”
Lin Fan laughed out loud. “Alright. I’ll treat all junior brothers to a feast today.”
The crowd might’ve been envious of Lu Qiming and the rest, but they were excited to hear that they were going to have a dragon feast.
Feasting on an Earth Star Border Stage Eight beast was something they would never have dared to dream of.
It was something they could flaunt about to their friends in the future.
