My Master Knows It All-Chapter 1405 - 335_4

If Cao Zhen agrees to act, he is no longer at the Golden Core Period Limit. The fact that the people of the Three Great Demonic Sects are arriving must mean they are confident in being able to kill Cao Zhen.

When the time comes and Cao Zhen is killed, the Three Great Demonic Sects will undoubtedly save face in the process."

"Indeed so. The key question is whether Cao Zhen dares to accept the challenge."

Yu Long originally didn’t want to engage with the matter, yet the opposition explicitly named Cao Zhen, demanding him to resolve their grievances. Thus, Yu Long had no choice but to report it.

However, both Cao Zhen and Immortal Bi Yue had been inside the Holy Mountain. Let alone Yu Long himself, even Zhang Zirong, their interim sect hierarch, couldn’t directly enter the Holy Mountain. With no alternative, Yu Long could only use a transmission jade talisman to contact Immortal Bi Yue and inform her about the situation.

On the island in the Sacred Lake, Cao Zhen continued refining pills while cultivating.

He had discovered that as he approached the Golden Core Period Limit, progressing further had become significantly slower compared to before.

Suddenly, Immortal Bi Yue cast a strange glance toward him.

After a brief silence, Bi Yue commented, "Just now, people from the Void Breaking Sect, Soul Breaking Demonic Sect, and Weeping Blood Demon Sect came forward, saying they wish to settle the grievances between you. They suggested that you face their representatives in combat one by one. Regardless of victory or defeat, as long as you engage with them individually, the enmity will be considered resolved."

"Yu Long also observed earlier, noting that among the representatives they sent, none were their respective sect hierarchs. This means there were no individuals at the Golden Core Period Limit."

"However..."

Immortal Bi Yue paused briefly and continued, "The fact that they dared propose fighting you must mean they are confident. Perhaps one of them possesses some kind of secret technique allowing temporary attainment of the Golden Core Period Limit, or perhaps one of them has already reached the Golden Core Period Limit, but the outside world remains unaware."

"Therefore, my suggestion is to simply ignore them. Right now, you are refining pills for Little Dragon, and our Dragon Chant Sect naturally has an obligation to protect you, just as we must safeguard your sect as well."

"Rest assured, Little Dragon’s lineage is certainly extraordinary. Although its mother passed away long ago due to the Heavenly Dao, its father remains alive and merely in slumber. If I disclose that you are treating Little Dragon, even Zhang Zirong himself would take personal action to protect you and the Hundred Peaks Sect." freewёbnoνel.com

Cao Zhen knew that Little Yin Dragon’s mother must have been incredibly strong—after all, anyone who could forcibly resist the Heavenly Dao to give birth to it had to be mighty. Otherwise, how could such resistance occur?

If its mother was already so formidable, its father must certainly not be weak either.

Yet, from Bi Yue’s words, it seemed Little Yin Dragon’s father was even more terrifyingly powerful than he had imagined. The implication was clear: for Little Yin Dragon’s sake, the entire Dragon Chant Sect would go to war.

How monstrously strong must Little Yin Dragon’s father be?

If he could somehow persuade Little Yin Dragon to come to the Hundred Peaks Sect, then in the future, who would dare attack the Hundred Peaks Sect?

As for fighting those demonic sect members?

Even if they possessed the Golden Core Period Limit, so what?

Cao Zhen immediately laughed aloud. "Fight? If they come knocking seeking death, why wouldn’t I oblige?"

He then looked at Immortal Bi Yue with an odd expression and said, "You wouldn’t seriously think I’m weak right now, would you?"

After pausing briefly, his face revealed an unmistakable hint of teasing as he continued, "Have you ever considered, just maybe, you yourself are no longer my equal now?"

"Impossible!" Immortal Bi Yue instantly shook her head at his words, "I know you’ve cultivated Chaotic Power, but the Golden Core Period Limit is still the Golden Core Period Limit. You’re currently merely approaching the limit, and unless you break through to it immediately, you can’t possibly defeat someone already there."

"Who says I’m not already at the Golden Core Period Limit?" Cao Zhen waved his arm in front of Immortal Bi Yue, saying, "Don’t forget, reaching the Golden Core Period Limit doesn’t only apply to mana—it also includes the physical body."

"My disciple Xiang Ziyu achieved physical strength at the Golden Core Period Limit, so why couldn’t I do the same? He reached the Golden Core Period Limit by cultivating the Eight Nine Mysterious Art, and that cultivation technique was taught by me."

"What? You’ve also reached the Golden Core Period Limit!" Immortal Bi Yue’s eyes widened. She was well-aware of the wonders of the Eight Nine Mysterious Art, having herself been practicing it for some time. She could distinctly feel the conspicuous improvements in physical strength brought by the technique.

She was certain that cultivating the Eight Nine Mysterious Art could indeed lead to the Golden Core Period Limit.

"But your physical body had not previously reached the Golden Core Period Limit." Immortal Bi Yue would often engage in battles alongside Cao Zhen, and she clearly felt that while his physical strength was impressive, it fell short compared to Xiang Ziyu’s—far from the level of the physical Golden Core Period Limit.

Cao Zhen explained, "That’s because the cultivation technique I practiced in this lifetime differs greatly from what I cultivated in my previous life. My chosen path has also changed significantly, and because this new path is unfamiliar to me, my mana inadvertently reached the Golden Core Period Limit long before my physical body could.

The Eight Nine Mysterious Art isn’t merely a divine skill for tempering the body—it also enhances mana. But since my mana has already reached the Golden Core Period Limit, I naturally can’t use the Eight Nine Mysterious Art to its fullest potential. That’s why my physical body couldn’t previously reach the Golden Core Period Limit."
