Chapter 640: Chapter 37 Dao-asking Conference_1
“Disciple from Chunyuan Peak, Xi Wushang, requests to see the peak master.”
A figure with striking features, resembling a mortal hero, stood before Shenxiu Peak, said aloud.
In Shenxiu Peak, a moment of silence followed, and then an excited voice rang out.
“Martial Uncle Xi, how did you come here?!”
As the words were spoken, a figure suddenly emerged from Shenxiu Peak.
The figure was so elusive that even Xi Wushang could only vaguely sense the aura of Perfect Foundation Establishment on the figure, incapable of seeing its figure clearly.
...
The figure was like the wind in the world, incomprehensible.
Sensing the awe-inspiring speed, a trace of surprise crossed Xi Wushang’s eyes.
“Good job, kid. This ‘Ride the Wind Six Methods’ has some substance!”
“Hehe!”
The voice of the other came, but only the sound was heard, the person was not seen.
Xi Wushang felt a wind of awe-inspiring power coming faintly.
If struck, even a Golden Core cultivator, if caught off guard, would have his soul blown to pieces.
But he did not panic at all.
With a calm expression, his Spiritual Mind moved.

Around his body, an invisible Mana, like a river pouring out, surged forth!
The overwhelming Golden Core Mana shot out directly towards the wind.
Buzz!
A figure was immediately revealed under the outpouring Mana, his course disrupted.
He was thrown off in disarray for a moment, before he managed to stabilize his form and flew over barely.
It was a youthful cultivator with a hint of arrogance in his brow.
Although he was slapped away by Xi Wushang’s Mana, his face showed no anger. Instead, it was filled with admiration and enthusiasm:
“Martial Uncle Xi, how come you have time to come over today?”
Xi Wushang smiled faintly: “Zhong Kang, is your master inside the peak?”
The young cultivator, Liang Zhongkang, did not answer but curiously asked, “Ancestor? What are you looking for him for?”
Upon hearing this, Xi Wushang did not conceal anything and displayed a hint of helplessness on his face:
“It’s all for the Dao-asking Conference. The competition venue has some instability, and I want to ask the master for help. I happened to be passing by, so the Master of Shao Yin Mountain sent me to look for him, to see if this problem can be solved.”
Upon hearing this, Liang Zhongkang’s eyes lit up:
“Is the Dao-asking Conference about to begin?”
Seeing Liang Zhongkang so excited, Xi Wushang couldn’t help but laugh:
“What, haven’t you applied yet? You’d better hurry, or it’ll be too late.”
“My master has already registered for me… By the way, I heard that there are some formidable competitors in this session. Do you know about them, Martial Uncle?”
Liang Zhongkang asked curiously.
“Formidable?”
Xi Wushang thought for a moment, then shook his head: “I do know some of the Golden Core cultivators, but I haven’t paid much attention to the Foundation Establishment ones.”
“I’ve only heard that Xinjian Peak’s Ji Jian is quite formidable, as are Qingmu Peak’s Yang Lian brothers, Fire Cloud Peak’s Tang Yun, and Tianji Peak’s Ruan Ziyin…”
Upon hearing this, Liang Zhongkang’s face revealed a somewhat unappreciative expression:
“Ji Jian is no good, he can’t keep up with me. The Yang Lian brothers from Qingmu Peak are a bit troublesome, I can’t get into the woods where they’re hiding… But the Dao-asking Conference is a solo event, I’m not afraid. Tang Yun… we haven’t interacted much, but he should not be my rival. Ruan Ziyin is a formidable opponent, but she’s too timid…”
His comments were knowledgeable and precise.
Suddenly, as if he thought of something, his eyes lit up:
“Oh yeah, my master mentioned that there will be a disciple from Wanfa Peak participating this year. Martial Uncle, do you know anything about him?”
Wanfa Peak?
Xi Wushang thought for a moment, then shook his head:
“I’ve heard of it from the master and also from the tea house in Xuanwu Market. Wanfa Peak was once quite glorious. Every time the disciple of Wanfa Peak participated, they would win the competition. They are indeed powerful, but in recent years, their shadow seems to be absent. I’m afraid they have declined.”
The Wanxiang Sect contains ten thousand peaks.
So many inheritances, unavoidably go through rise and decline.
Some that have never produced Golden Core cultivators, even if the sect does not intervene, will quickly perish with the death of the peak master.
Unless there are extraordinarily talented disciples amongst the younger generation who can revitalize the sect.
But such examples are too few and far between.
Liang Zhongkang frowned:
“Master said that Wanfa Peak is very strong, supposedly stronger than our Shenxiu Peak and even Chunyuan Peak. I don’t believe it very much. By the way, I heard master say that the disciple now in Wanfa Peak is in Foundation Establishment stage. Their lineage seems to be in dire need of merit every generation, yet they always win first place. He will most likely participate this time. If he is really that powerful, he will definitely run into me then.”
“When the time comes… I will prove who is the number one peak in Wanxiang Sect! Uh, Martial Uncle, I’m not referring to Chunyuan Peak here.”
Upon hearing this, Xi Wushang simply laughed.
He didn’t take it to heart.
It was just small skirmishes among Foundation Establishment cultivators. Even if it gets intense, once reaching the Golden Core Realm, they’ll realize they were just pecking at each other like chickens.
Moreover, who would be the number one peak in Wanxiang Sect was never a fixed conclusion.
For example, Chunyuan Peak, in Wanxiang Sect, held an unrivaled position.
Simply because the current Sect Master was from Chunyuan Peak.
However, Chunyuan Peak was far from being considered as the number one peak. After all, the number of disciples in Chunyuan Peak was scarce. It did not hold an advantage in terms of the scale of members, let alone claim to be number one.
