"He's the Peak Master of Earth Peak, Tian Gu."
Chen Wei said.
Peak Master of Earth Peak?
Duan Lingtian raised his eyebrows. "Then, does this mean that he's Tian Zhen's father?"
"Yes."
Chen Wei nodded.
"Earth Peak …"
Duan Lingtian was no stranger to Earth Peak.
Before he came to the Five Element Sect and was still in Settlement City, the Earth Peak's disciple who was lurking in Wood Peak's stronghold had already tried to tempt him to join Earth Peak with the price of a grade two Spirit Weapon and a Seventh Level Concept Fragment.
Due to this reason, he had long been acquainted with Earth Peak.
When Duan Lingtian saw Tian Gu, the Peak Master of Earth Peak, looking at him immediately after he shattered the illusory space with his Spiritual Energy, he knew that he was the owner of the Spiritual Energy that created the illusory space.
However, he did not mind at all. He looked back at him fearlessly.
However, very soon, both Duan Lingtian and Tian Gu shifted their gazes away from each other and shifted their gazes to another place.
Unknowingly, the old man who was standing next to Tian Gu disappeared before Duan Lingtian's eyes. When he reappeared, he was already standing next to Hu Fei who was in a panic, beaten up, and battered like a pig.
"Hu Fei, what were you doing just now?"
The old man scolded Hu Fei with a solemn face.
It did not cross his mind that his proud disciple would end up in such a wretched state today. Not only that, it was in front of a group of Five Element Sect's senior officials and disciples, embarrassing him completely.
"He's the Peak Master of Fire Peak, Cha Bai."
Chen Wei's voice entered clearly into Duan Ling Tian's ears.
Duan Lingtian nodded his head.
In fact, even if Chen Wei did not say anything, he could already guess the old man's identity.
This old man was standing in a row with Tian Gu, the Peak Master of Earth Peak, and the Peak Master of Wood Peak.
There were a total of four people standing in a row behind the Sect Leader of Five Element Sect.
Based on this, their identities were obvious. They were none other than the Peak Masters of the other four Peaks in Five Element Sect other than Gold Peak.
"M-Master?"
At this moment, Hu Fei finally regained his senses. When he saw Cha Bai in front of him and noticed the strange gazes that were being directed at him from the surroundings, a chilling gleam flashed across his eyes.
"Chen Wei, I'm going to kill you!"
Hu Fei suddenly looked at Duan Lingtian, Huang Daniu, and Chen Wei who were standing not far away. The flames that rose from his body raged even more violently. He wanted to attack the three Duan Lingtian.
Pa!
A crisp sound of a slap resonated in the air. It was Cha Bai who had raised his hand and slapped Hu Fei, causing half of Hu Fei's face to swell even more. "Don't you think that you've embarrassed yourself enough?"
Cha Bai's gloomy voice was mixed with a hint of anger.
After being slapped by Cha Bai, Hu Fei's body trembled all of a sudden. With a jolt, he finally regained his senses and lowered his head in shame, "Master, this disciple is useless. I've embarrassed you."
"However, if they didn't rely on external forces, this disciple wouldn't have ended up in such a pathetic state … Don't worry, Master. Once the Battle of the Five Peaks begins, this disciple will definitely make them regret it for the rest of their lives as long as they dare to make a move!"
When Hu Fei reached the end of his sentence, he gritted his teeth. His eyes that were filled with hatred flashed with a chilling gleam as he glanced at Duan Lingtian and the other two.
Upon hearing Hu Fei's words, the surrounding Five Element Sect's disciples burst into an uproar.
External forces?
Hu Fei was made into such a pathetic state by external forces?
At this moment, they finally came to a realization.
"No wonder the situation earlier was so strange. So it turns out that the people from Wood Peak had used external forces to make Senior Brother Hu Fei suffer such a humiliation."
"Hmph! Nobody is allowed to rely on external forces in the Battle of the Five Peaks. Otherwise, it would be considered as a loss! I'm afraid these three people from Wood Peak are going to be in trouble … if they don't admit defeat. "
"I'm looking forward to seeing how Senior Brother Hu Fei, who has been humiliated, is going to take revenge on the three people from Wood Peak."
…
Many of the Five Element Sect's disciples began to discuss among themselves. All of them felt that Duan Lingtian and the other two were going to be in trouble.
Of course, there were exceptions as well.
For example, Nangong and his brother, Tian Gu, the Peak Master of Earth Peak, Wood Peak, and the two old men behind him, Yang Ling and Ke Zheng.
"Senior Brother Yang, looks like these three little fellows have helped you to vent your anger."
Ke Zheng said to Yang Ling with a smile.
Yang Ling nodded his head lightly. However, one could not see any fluctuation in his emotions.
At this moment, his gaze landed on Hu Fei's body. After consuming the Healing Medicinal Pill, the wounds on his face were healing at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. Traces of complicated light flashed across his eyes.
After ten years, he realized that when he faced this disciple who had betrayed him in the past again, he was no longer as angry as before.
Everything seemed to have faded away now.
As expected, time could dilute everything.
"Now, the Peak Masters of the other four Peaks, please gather with the young representatives of the other four Peaks … Half an hour later, the Battle of the Five Peaks will begin! At that time, the five Peaks will be ranked again. According to the ranking, the resources that each Peak will enjoy in the next three years will be decided. "
Soon after, the Sect Leader of the Five Element Sect announced in a loud voice.
At once, the three Peak Masters behind the Sect Leader of the Five Element Sect spread out one by one with the elders behind them and flew to the side of the sky not far away.
For example, the Peak Master of Wood Peak brought Yang Ling and Ke Zheng to the side of Duan Lingtian and the other two.
"Peak Master."
After Duan Lingtian and the other two greeted the Peak Master of Wood Peak with a smile, they looked at Yang Ling and Ke Zheng and greeted both of them as well.
During this time, Duan Lingtian learned the name of the Peak Master of Wood Peak from Chen Wei's Voice Transmission — Qi Yu.
As for the Sect Leader of Five Element Sect, his name was Guo Chong.
Tian Gu, the Peak Master of Earth Peak, brought along an Earth Peak elder and gathered with Tian Zhen.
"Father!"
Tian Zhen greeted Tian Gu respectfully. As for the other two people beside him, they also addressed Tian Gu as Peak Master.
"Yes."
Tian Gu nodded his head with a smile. However, even though there was a smile on his face, there was a hint of worry in between his brows as though he was worried about something.
"Father, don't worry. I'll definitely defeat the two young powerhouses that Wood Peak found. I won't let Earth Peak be at the bottom. "
Tian Zhen seemed to have guessed what his father was worried about so he comforted him.
"No."
Upon hearing Tian Zhen's words, Tian Gu shook his head.
"Huh?"
Tian Zhen was puzzled.
"Zhen'er, your opponent this time is not the two people from Wood Peak … It's Tan Huan from Water Peak."
When Tian Gu reached this part of the sentence, he looked into the distance.
There, Tan Huan was gathered with a middle-aged woman. The middle-aged woman was none other than Yu Fang, the Peak Master of Water Peak.
For a mere woman to become the Peak Master of Water Peak, one of the Five Peaks of Five Element Sect, Yu Fang was naturally not a simple person. Her cultivation base was not inferior to Cha Bai and Tian Gu at all.
"Father, I might not be able to win against Tan Huan … She has also made a breakthrough to the Sixth Level Void Interpretation."
Tian Zhen smiled wryly.
In the past, when he and Tan Huan were both Fifth Level Void Interpretation martial artists, they had fought before.
At that time, he was slightly inferior to her.
Initially, he thought he could defeat Tan Huan after he had made a breakthrough to the Sixth Level Void Interpretation. He did not expect Tan Huan to have made a breakthrough as well.
"What?!"
Tian Gu was shocked. "She has made a breakthrough as well? Looks like our Earth Peak is really in danger this time … Zhen'er, you must try your best to defeat Tan Huan! Otherwise, our Earth Peak will be quiet for three years. "
"Father, what are you talking about? Even if I can't win against Tan Huan, that Duan Lingtian and Huang Daniu from Wood Peak might not be a match for me as well! I heard that they're only Fifth Level Void Interpretation martial artists. "
Tian Zhen said.
"Hurmph!"
Tian Gu snorted coldly. "Do you think a person who can make Hu Fei so wretched would be a Fifth Level Void Interpretation martial artist?"
Tian Zhen was stunned for a moment before he continued, "Father, didn't Hu Fei say so earlier? It's because the three people from Wood Peak relied on external forces that made him so wretched … However, external forces are not allowed in the Battle of the Five Peaks. "
A confident smile appeared on Tian Zhen's face when he reached this point. "If they don't rely on external forces, it won't be difficult for me to defeat them."
"External forces?"
Tian Gu sneered. "Hu Fei said it was an external force, but you really think it's an external force? Looks like the name I gave you back then was right. Tian Zhen, naive! "
"Father, what do you mean by that?"
Tian Zhen faintly sensed that something was amiss. His face turned solemn immediately.
"You should know that other than being a martial artist, I'm also an Inscription Master who studies the Dao of Inscriptions. I can release my Spiritual Energy … Do you know that I was the one who saved Hu Fei earlier?"
Tian Gu said.
"Father, I know you're an Inscription Master, and I know that Inscription Masters can release their Spiritual Energy … However, you said you were the one who saved Hu Fei. What do you mean by that?"
Tian Zhen asked with a puzzled expression.
"If I'm not mistaken, Hu Fei should be in a place similar to an illusory realm … That illusory realm was constructed with Spiritual Energy as the foundation."
Tian Gu took a deep breath and voiced his speculation in a low voice.
"What?! Illusory realm? Or is it an illusory realm constructed with Spiritual Energy? "
Tian Zhen's eyes narrowed as he exclaimed in shock, "Don't tell me that Duan Lingtian and the other two have some kind of special demon beast that has an innate Soul Brand and can cast Soul Skills before entering the Emperor Stage?"
"Hurmph! If that's a demon beast's technique, then it's also an external force. It won't affect the Battle of the Five Peaks. "
Tian Gu snorted and said in fear, "However, the problem is … After I used my Spiritual Energy to destroy the illusory realm constructed with Spiritual Energy, I realized that the owner of the Spiritual Energy was Duan Lingtian!"
Duan Lingtian!
When the three words entered Tian Zhen's ears, it was like a sudden clap of thunder that caused his expression to change drastically.
"Father, you … You mean … That Duan Ling Tian is able to construct an illusory realm with his Spiritual Force? Don't tell me he's a demon? "
Tian Zhen gasped. Shock was written all over his face.
Demon!
Even the weakest Demon was an existence at the first level of the Void Transformation Stage, and a single move was sufficient to defeat him.
"Of course not! Even though his Spiritual Energy is pretty good, it's still far from the Spiritual Energy of a Void Transformation Stage martial artist … I'm guessing that it's very likely that he's a variant born from a human and a demon, a heaven-defying variant that possesses an innate ability!
