2744 Five Prodigies
The challenge of Carnage Sword Peak to Su Zimo did not last long.
It ended in less than two hours.
After Bu Yao and Wen Zheng, two Convergence Perfected Immortals, were defeated one after another, no one from Carnage Sword Peak stood out anymore.
There were more than a thousand Perfected Immortals on Carnage Sword Peak.
Among them, there were more than 500 Convergence Perfected Immortals.
However, even Bu Yao and Wen Zheng were defeated miserably by Su Zimo without even drawing their swords. If the other sword cultivators went forward to challenge him, they would only be asking for humiliation.
Su Zimo wanted to end the combat as soon as possible and return to his cave abode to heal Beiming Xue. Therefore, he did not delay the entanglement with the other party.
However, this matter caused a huge commotion among the eight Sword Peaks!
“Have you heard? Beiming Xue’s master from the lower worlds ran to Carnage Sword Peak and defeated 49 sword cultivators of Carnage Sword Peak within two hours!”
“He’s so strong? What’s his cultivation?”
“I heard that he’s a Convergence Perfected Immortal.”
“His cultivation realm isn’t high either. How can he be Junior Sister Beiming’s master?”
“That’s the conflict. I heard that this person’s method of training Junior Sister Beiming was way too cruel. The fellow disciples of Carnage Sword Peak could not stand it and wanted to teach him a lesson. To think that they would be taught a lesson instead.”
Five Elements Sword Peak, one of the eight Sword Peaks.
On this day, a few Perfected Immortals sat together in the hall of Five Elements Sword Peak and chatted casually as they sipped their tea.
“Carnage Sword Peak has lost a lot of face this time round!” The sword cultivator in the middle shook his head gently and lamented.
This person named Gong Sunyu was the number one legacy disciple of Five Elements Sword Peak!
The person on the left had a sharp gaze. “How powerful was Carnage Sword Peak back then? It was the leader of the eight Sword Peaks. To think that it would fall to such a state now. They lost even after they took turns to fight him.”
His Daoist t.i.tle was Tai Lai and he came from Extreme Sword Peak. He was also the number one legacy disciple of Extreme Sword Peak.
In the palm of the sword cultivator on the right, long swords flashed one after another, seemingly real and illusory. He continued, “The reason why Carnage Sword Peak could become the leader of the eight Sword Peaks back then was also because of the existence of Emperor Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng.”
“Back when he created the three great sword arts and the Carnage Sword Dao, he established the eighth Sword Peak in the Sword World which is the current Carnage Sword Peak that’s famous in the Heavenly World.”
This person was called Shen Yue and came from Illusory Sword Peak.
“It’s a pity that Emperor Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng is dead. Although the three great sword arts have been pa.s.sed down, they lack his divine might.” Another sword cultivator sighed.
The sword cultivator was a monk with a string of prayer beads in his hands. His name was Jue Jian and he came from Zen Sword Peak.
A tall and burly man with a domineering aura rumbled, “That’s right. After so many years, no one has been able to cultivate that peerless divine power, the Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng Sword.”
“Because of Junior Sister Beiming’s appearance, many seniors of Carnage Sword Peak pinned their hopes on her. Unfortunately, she cultivated incorrectly and could not condense a Dao Fruit to enter the Perfected One realm, much less cultivate the Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng Sword.”
The burly man’s name was Qin Zhong and he wore bronze armor. He carried a thick and heavy gigantic sword on his back and came from Tyrant Sword Peak.
The five people present were all peak Perfected Immortals of the various Sword Peaks.
Now that they were gathered, they naturally heard the news from Carnage Sword Peak.
Gong Sunyu of Five Elements Sword Peak looked at Sword Immortal Tai Lai and said with a smile, “From the looks of it, the person with the highest chance of cultivating the peerless divine power, the Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng Sword, might be a junior brother from Extreme Sword Peak instead.”
Sword Immortal Tai Lai nodded. “Although this person came from the Heavenly World, his talent in the Sword Dao is indeed extremely strong and rare. Furthermore, he has obtained many Sword Dao inheritances. When he entered the Perfected One realm, he attracted the Eight of Nine Heavenly Tribulation.”
“Master praised him greatly and even personally said that he’s the person with the highest chance of comprehending the Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng Sword!”
Qin Zhong shouted, “No matter what, Carnage Sword Peak is one of the eight Sword Peaks. It won’t look good for us if they lose face.”
“Furthermore, Junior Sister Beiming is so talented in the Sword Dao. We can’t let that person ruin her!”
Monk Jue Jian nodded as well. “Master mentioned this to me. He was more worried about Junior Sister Beiming but couldn’t appear personally, so he asked me to think of a way.”
Monk Jue Jian’s master was the Peak Master of Zen Sword Peak!
The others exchanged glances with tacit understanding.
In reality, not only did the situation on Beiming Xue’s side attract their attention, even the Peak Masters of the eight Sword Peaks were paying attention silently.
However, the eight Peak Masters were all peak Grotto-heaven realm sword immortals. Naturally, it was not appropriate for them to appear against a mere Perfected Immortal from the Heavenly World.
“Everyone, what should we do about this?”
Gong Sunyu asked.
Shen Yue of Illusory Sword Peak said, “That’s simple. Let’s each choose a strongest Convergence Perfected Immortal to challenge him.”
“No matter how strong that person is, can he defeat all the monster incarnates of our eight Sword Peaks?”
“Alright.”
Gong Sunyu nodded slightly. “Among the Convergence Perfected Immortals of Five Elements Sword Peak, there’s indeed someone who is stronger than Bu Yao and Wen Zheng.”
Qin Zhong looked at Sword Immortal Tai Lai and asked, “Is that person from your Extreme Sword Peak free? If he attacks, that person will definitely lose!”
Sword Immortal Tai Lai smiled. “Junior Brother Yun is still in seclusion. There’s no need for him to appear for such a small matter.”
The sword immortals chatted for a while more before returning.
The next day.
Meeting Hall of Carnage Sword Peak.
Gong Sunyu of Five Elements Sword Peak, Sword Immortal Tai Lai of the Supreme Sword Peak, Shen Yue of Illusory Sword Peak, Monk Jue Jian of Zen Sword Peak and Qin Zhong of Tyrant Sword Peak arrived at the same time.
When w.a.n.g Dong saw them appear, he knew why.
“To think that the matter of Carnage Sword Peak would alarm the few of you.”
w.a.n.g Dong welcomed them and invited the five of them into the hall. He smiled bitterly. “I’m ashamed.”
Gong Sunyu smiled. “Brother w.a.n.g, there’s no need for that. The sword cultivators of the eight Sword Peaks are all disciples of the same lineage. Naturally, we can’t stand by and do nothing when Carnage Sword Peak encounters trouble.”
Qin Zhong burst into laughter. “It’s mainly because he can’t bear to see Sister Beiming’s Sword Dao talent destroyed by that person. As a Convergence Perfected Immortal, how incredible can he be? I can teach him a lesson and let him know that there’s always someone better!”
w.a.n.g Dong hesitated for a moment. “Fellow Daoists, you might not know yet. This person is indeed capable. He…”
“Brother w.a.n.g, don’t worry.”
Shen Yue smiled. “The Convergence Perfected Immortals chosen by the five peaks this time round have never tasted defeat among their peers. Their combat strength is at the top and there won’t be any accidents.”
Monk Jue Jian nodded slightly as well. “With these five sword cultivators, no matter how amazing that person’s cultivation is, he won’t be able to get through the five of them in a row.”
When w.a.n.g Dong saw how confident the five of them were, he could not help but worry and mutter to himself, “Back then, I was as confident as you guys…”
Gong Sunyu said, “Brother w.a.n.g, let’s rest here for a while and enjoy this fragrant tea. We’ll just wait for the good news from here.”
The moment he said that, a figure sped over from outside.
“It’s here!”
Sword Immortal Tai Lai’s eyes lit up as he smiled. “To think that it’s even faster than we imagined. He probably didn’t even manage to defeat a single one of the five sword cultivator paragons.”
In the blink of an eye, the sword cultivator charged into the hall. The shock on his face had yet to dissipate as he panted. “Senior Brother w.a.n.g, the five senior brothers of the other Sword Peaks have all been knocked unconscious by that person!”
w.a.n.g Dong shrugged slightly, not surprised.
“Well…”
Gong Sunyu, Sword Immortal Tai Lai and the others froze on the spot.
