978: Chapter 262_6 978: Chapter 262_6 Even if the other party is likely to die, there’s no need to mention a true existence.
Atop the mountain gate, Qiao Jingyao and Wu Xiang nodded slightly, confirming that the other party did not come from the Central Five Provinces, but from the Eastern Border, which was similar to their own Eastern Wasteland.
Wu Xiang even responded, “Flying Immortal Sect, that name coincides with one of the peaks of our Hundred Peaks Sect.”
“Oh?” Gu Ling’s face showed a look of surprise as he gazed at the three large characters of the Celestial Plum Sect above the mountain gate and asked curiously, “Dao Companion, you’re from the Hundred Peaks Sect and not from the Celestial Plum Sect?”
“That’s right.” Wu Xiang admitted directly, “Indeed, I am not from the Celestial Plum Sect.”
Gu Ling quickly pondered in his heart that as they had traveled all this way, they had not seen any other Immortal Sects, and this Wu Xiang came from another sect, so it must be from farther away.
These people of the Eastern Wasteland could also see the white mist and the approach of his own East Cool Continent.
Previously, they had even sent someone to guard at the edge of the ocean, obviously keeping an eye on the situation from his side as well.
So, they were prepared.
From one end of their East Breeze territory, they could see the white fog and glimpse the East Wilderness Continent, but from the other end of East Breeze, they could also see another patch of white mist and another continent.
And they, in East Breeze, had guards posted at both places.
The Immortal Sects of the East Wilderness Continent must have done the same as East Breeze, guarding all their territories.
Thus, this person from the Hundred Peaks Sect must have also come to guard.
But, for them to guard with just these two people, that seemed way too few.
Hence, it could be that their strength was too weak, and that’s why they were guarding this way.
Perhaps this person answering him was the strongest in their so-called Hundred Peaks Sect.
While Gu Ling was thinking, he continued to speak, “It seems that, just like us in the Eastern Border, all the great Immortal Sects in the Eastern Wasteland are extremely friendly.
People from two different sects are able to be at the same place.
Dao Companion, being of the Nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pill Perfect Completion, I presume your Hundred Peaks Sect is also extremely renowned within the East Wilderness Continent.”
Although he had made his assumptions, he still needed to coax more information out of the other party.
Wu Xiang, upon hearing the inquiry about his Hundred Peaks Sect, immediately displayed a look of pride and said, “Our Hundred Peaks Sect does have a bit of fame.
Among mortals we’re not certain, but among all the Immortal Cultivator sects, there should be none who do not know of us.”
Their Hundred Peaks Sect was originally one of the top ten sects of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, which was the foremost dynasty in the entire Eastern Wasteland, so their Sect’s reputation was already significant.
Only Cultivators from sects located far away in the South Ocean were unaware of Hundred Peaks Sect’s existence.
However, as their Sect Leader, Cao Zhen, became the number one expert in the Eastern Wasteland, the name of the Hundred Peaks Sect grew ever more prominent, and now, across the Eastern Wasteland, there probably isn’t a single Cultivator who doesn’t know of the Hundred Peaks Sect.
As for the lies.
As a Disciple of the Hundred Peaks Sect, he disdains to tell lies.
Moreover, even if he told the other party, what could they possibly do to them?
He and Qiao Jingyao were currently the only two experts, but as Qiao Jingyao had already mentioned, she had informed the Hundred Peaks Sect of the situation, and surely experts from within the Sect would be coming soon.
“Oh?
So your Immortal Sect is that famous.” Gu Ling clasped his hands in a gesture of respect and asked, “Right, Dao Companion, you mentioned Flying Immortal Peak earlier.
Your sect is called the Hundred Peaks Sect, could it be that your Sect has a Hundred Peaks within it?”
Wu Xiang nodded proudly, “That’s right, our Hundred Peaks Sect indeed has a hundred peaks.
The Flying Immortal Peak you mentioned before is ranked as the number one peak in our Hundred Peaks Sect!”
“Oh?
With a hundred peaks, that would indeed be spectacular,” Gu Ling complimented while inwardly sneering, “What a hundred peaks.
Along the way, based on what we’ve seen of the Eastern Wasteland…
With two such grand mountain gates abandoned, and now this great Immortal Sect only showing these two people, one of whom comes from a different sect, it’s clear the infighting here in the Eastern Wasteland is extremely severe.
In such a place, how many of their Hundred Peaks could possibly remain?”
While he sneered inwardly, he continued to ask, “I wonder from which peak of your Hundred Peaks Sect does Dao Companion hail?
Given that you are of Nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pill Perfect Completion, I would think it’s one of the highly ranked peaks?
Or perhaps, Dao Companion, you come from that very Flying Immortal Peak?”
“I am not from Flying Immortal Peak, but from Five Elements Peak, where I currently serve as the Peak Master.
Five Elements Peak is the second-ranked peak in our Hundred Peaks Sect!” Wu Xiang could tell that the other party seemed to be fishing for information, but even revealing this, what could the other party do?
Gu Ling immediately continued the conversation, “Oh?
So as one who has reached Nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pill Perfect Completion, you’re only the master of the second-ranked peak.
It seems the master of Flying Immortal Peak must have reached Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection.”
“Naturally, the Peak Master of Flying Immortal Peak in our Hundred Peaks Sect is indeed a Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection existence,” Wu Xiang confirmed, then posed the question, “Dao Companion, in your Eastern Border, there must also be a number of experts at Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection, right?”
“I wouldn’t say many, but neither few; the exact number I really can’t say,” Gu Ling deliberately shook his head, “Our Eastern Border is peaceful, yes, but it’s so vast.
The various Immortal Sects only know about the ones in nearby regions, as for those farther away, how many experts they have, whether they possess Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection cultivators, we really do not know.”
He fabricated the statement as they went; his East Cool Continent certainly was vast, but the sects would all actually be in contact with each other.
They didn’t just have contacts, the cultivation world of East Cool even had an Alliance Hierarch.
But these details weren’t necessary to share with the other party.
However, if what the other party claimed was true, having a Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection, and adding the current present one, that would make two such experts.
He wondered how many experts the Sect would send from their side.
And if the other party was telling the truth, and their Hundred Peaks Sect was well-known throughout the entire Eastern Wasteland, then it must be one of the strongest Immortal Sects there.
If such a sect, their second-ranked peak’s master, was a Nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pill Perfect Completion, then the Hundred Peaks Sect’s strength seemed quite average, at least not as strong as their Sky Flying Sect, which boasted three Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection existences.
