Chapter 180 Very Special
“Rich. Extremely rich. This is even more spectacular than Yun Xiao Peak,” Wang Shengkang said coldly. He stepped up the stone steps, walking toward Invincible Peak.
Earth energy revolved on Xuan Qing’s feet as he tested the quality of the stone steps, but they did not move a single jot even when Xuan Qing made use of all his earth energy. “What material are these steps made of? It’s extremely strong. Even Black Gold Mystic Stone is not this strong.”
Black Gold Mystic Stone had a wide range of uses. It was usually used to make weapons, but with Xuan Qing’s cultivation, he had the ability to break a Black Gold Mystic Stone under the pressure of his earth energy. However, these stone steps seemed to be unaffected by this action, and there wasn’t even a single scratch mark.
“And how do these stone steps remain floating? What are they made of? Even Senior Brother Yun Xiao does not have the energy to support stone steps around the clock every single day.”
Wang Shengkang felt that there was something unusual about Invincible Peak. We have not been around for months, so what happened during that period?
Who in the world is so rich to build such a
peak?

“Look, isn’t that a beast?” Xuan Qing said, pointing far away. A few beasts could be seen leaning against the stones on their stomachs. They might not have been of high cultivation, but it was a bizarre sight to see beasts taking in earth energy from a peak. It was impossible for demons below the Earth Star Border Realm to cultivate, and even some demons in the Heaven Star Border Realm might not know how to cultivate.
So how jaw-dropping was it to see weak demons cultivating? Wang Shengkang’s eyes lit up as he observed the scene carefully, trying to get an answer.
“No, these aren’t even demons.” He shook his head. “Those are just beasts. But how could it be? Beasts do not have intelligence, so how could they understand how to cultivate?” Both of them continued making their way up the peak.
Not long later, they went past a few disciples. When the disciples saw them, they were startled. Has Senior Brother Yun Xiao returned from his trip?
“Greetings, Senior Brothers.” The disciples greeted Xuan Qing and Wang Shengkang. They were all outer disciples, and they were here to use Lin Fan’s Body Tempering Pool for cultivation. Now that they had come across first-class inner disciples, they had to show them respect.
Wang Shengkang looked at the disciples arrogantly, acting like an arrogant senior brother. “Let me ask you, who’s the peak leader of this peak?”
“Replying to Senior Brother’s question, the peak leader of this peak is Senior Brother Lin,” a skinnier disciple said.
“I’m asking for the full name.” Wang Shengkang sneered, not attaching importance to the outer disciples. Suddenly, the disciples could feel a clap of thunder in their hearts, making their bodies burn. They even had the urge to kneel to the ground immediately.
“Lin Fan,” they answered in a hurry. One of the disciples seemed to have something more to say, but he was stopped by the other disciple.
Wang Shengkang and Xuan Qing exchanged a glance. They had no idea who Lin Fan was. Since when is there such a disciple in the sect? And how could he build a peak out of nowhere? This is totally impossible! Could it be that he’s a disciple who kept his ability hidden and emerged within a day?
Impossible. Even if there was such a person, he would not be so strong that he could establish a peak too.
Unable to figure out what was going on, Xuan Qing and Wang Shengkang ignored the outer disciples and went up the peak.
After both of them left, the outer disciples couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief. “They are so overboard. How could a senior brother use his ability to pressure us just because they are unhappy with our answers?” the disciples said unhappily.
“Junior Brother, why did you stop me from telling them about Senior Brother Lin?” The disciple who did not finish his words previously asked.
“They are Wang Shengkang and Xuan Qing, who are under Senior Brother Yun Xiao. Both of them are arrogant and always have their noses up in the air. With their tempers, they will definitely offend Senior Brother Lin. By then, Senior Brother Lin can take them down and teach them a lesson, letting them understand.”
The few disciples nodded. He’s smart to think of this.
“Who do you think that Lin Fan is?” Wang Shengkang asked, confused. He was astounded by the scenery of the peak as he made his way to the top.
Bizarre flowers blossomed brightly. The fragrance of flowers seemed to differ from ordinary fragrance. It gave an effect even for them slightly. “I have no idea, but we will know when we get to the top.” Xuan Qing looked at the hillside, where many disciples had gathered. All of them were sitting in the Body Tempering Pool.
And there were still disciples flocking in. As far as they could see, Invincible Peak had become more popular than Yun Xiao Peak.
To Lu Qiming and the rest, it was a busy period for them. Ever since Lin Fan established Invincible Peak, they required more helping hands. Thus, they were now busy with selecting the outer disciples for the peak. There were even inner disciples who came with the intention to join Invincible Peak.
Just then, Lu Qiming saw two people going up to the main palace. Thus, he stood up and shouted at them. “Hold up, that’s for authorized personnel only.”
Wang Shengkang and Xuan Qing stopped in their tracks. When they saw Lu Qiming, they took a glance at him and looked at him in disdain. He’s just a Body Tempering Stage Nine.
The appearance of Lu Qiming made Xuan Qing and Wang Shengkang let down their guards totally.
Their guard is only a Body Tempering Stage Nine? What a joke!
Our guard back at Yun Xiao Peak is an Earth Star Border Stage Three.
Lu Qiming stopped both of them. When he took a close look, he was shocked to find out that they were Wang Shengkang and Xuan Qing. He might’ve been an outer disciple, but he was aware that both of them were from Yun Xiao Peak.
However, Lu Qiming was part of Invincible peak and under Lin Fan. He is counting on me to take good care of Invincible Peak, how could I allow anyone to break through the place as they like?
Even if both of them are first-class inner disciples and under Senior Brother Yun Xiao, I’m not afraid.
“Please hold on, that’s the main palace of Invincible Peak. Any unauthorized personnel are unallowed in there.”
“Are you speaking to me?” Wang Shengkang frowned.
As soon as he finished his words, a strong force could be felt, coming toward Lu Qiming.
“Do you not know how to greet your senior brothers properly?”
Wang Shengkang chided Lu Qiming loudly, ignoring the fact that he was from Invincible Peak.
Lu Qiming frowned and took a step back. It felt as if there was a huge force pressuring down on him.
“Who is making a fuss here at Invincible Peak?” From afar, Zhang Long realized that there was something going on and rushed over. He did not expect there would be anyone who would be here to find trouble. When he realized it was Wang Shengkang and Xuan Qing, his heart sank. They are from Yun Xiao Peak.
Wang Shengkang and Xuan Qing took a glance at them before shaking their heads in disdain. “Crows flock together.”
“You…!” Lu Qiming raged out of humiliation. He did not expect to be humiliated at Invincible Peak. Senior Brother Lin is still in seclusion, he should not be disturbed.
Thus, Lu Qiming took a step out and stood up straight. Since Senior Brother Lin is not around, we should be Invincible Peak’s support.
“Wang Shengkang and Xuan Qing, are you here to find trouble with Invincible Peak as representatives of Yun Xiao Peak?”
But of course, Wang Shengkang would not care about Lu Qiming. “I have just returned from a trip with Senior Brother Yun Xiao to discover the presence of this peak. I thought of how terrific the peak leader would be, but it turns out to be a peak where crows are in charge. It’s such a pity, such a pity.”
The disciples who were queuing up turned to each other.
“What is Yun Xiao Peak trying to do? Are they trying to start a fight with Invincible Peak?”
“They are well-known disciples of Yun Xiao Peak. Since they have returned, Senior Brother Yun Xiao must be back too.”
“Is there something wrong with their brains? This is Senior Brother Lin’s peak! Are they unaware of Senior Brother Lin’s actions during this period?”
“Wang Shengkang and Xuan Qing are famous for being arrogant. Other than their elders and senior brother, when have they treated anyone nicely? I did not expect them to be this arrogant though, to actually find trouble here at Invincible Peak. If Senior Brother Lin was around, they might be seriously injured, if they are lucky enough to not die.”
“I have never gone to a peak in my life because I couldn’t stand how arrogant those people are. They have their noses in the sky all the time, but they act differently in front of the elders and seniors. They always pick on those that are weaker than themselves. Look at Senior Brother Lin, he built a Body Tempering Pool for us as soon as he established his peak to help with our cultivation. Which other peak does that?” Lu Qiming’s and Zhang Long’s faces fell. They did not expect uninvited guests to come to the peak and humiliate them so badly. In the past, they would already have let things slide.
But not now.
Because if they did, they would be embarrassing Invincible Peak.
“Wang Shengkang, Xuan Qing. Don’t be audacious. This is Invincible Peak, a place where even your Yun Xiao peak leader would not dare to act like this,” Lu Qiming scolded.
Wang Shengkang exchanged a glance with Xuan Qing before bursting into laughter, as if they heard a great joke. “Hahahaha! What did you say? Even Senior Brother Yun Xiao would not dare to act in this manner? How funny is that?”
“Go and get that Lin Fan out. Our Senior Brother Yun Xiao is curious who the hell established Invincible Peak. Aren’t you guys afraid that the word ‘invincible’ would be so powerful that it gets you killed?” Both of them were in absolute disdain. If the main guards are so weak, how strong can the peak leader be?
“You’re digging your own grave!” Lu Qiming yelled and sent a punch toward Wang Shengkang, despite knowing that it was not going to have much effect on him.
“You do not know where you stand,” Wang Shengkang said in disdain. He raised his hand and waved it slightly. However, to Lu Qiming, it was a force too strong for him to take. He was sent flying out and crashed into a stone pillar hard. Lu Qiming vomited blood and became weaker.
“You’re just a Body Tempering Stage Nine and yet you dare to attack me? You really do not know where you stand. Is that how you treat your senior brothers? I’ll teach you a lesson today so you know what respect is.”
Wang Shengkang spoke calmly. He put his hands behind his back. He was like a bright sword. Rays of sword light shone brightly, and it felt as if he was destroying everyone that was weaker than him.
“Audacious!” Zhang Long, Huang Fugui, Yin Xiaotian, and Gao Dazhuang shouted in anger, attacking him.
But to both of the Yun Xiao disciples, these four weren’t worth their attention. They raised their hands and let them down. Four figures could be seen flying out. “Disrespectful.” Wang Shengkang side-eyed them.
An Earth Star Border Stage Eight is not something that you ants can defeat.
“I’m going to kill you both!” Seeing this, Qin Shan roared and came toward them with a strong force.
“I see that the only idiot in the sect is here too. Invincible Peak is such a special place. There are all kinds of trash here. You should just give your peak to our Yun Xiao Peak.” Wang Shengkang shook his head and took a step out. Earth energy gushed out, turning into sword energy that went for Qin Shan.
