My Master Knows It All

So, just how terrifying was the Sect Leader of the Hundred Peaks Sect, the strongest in the East Wilderness?

Amid his confusion, the Flying Boat suddenly stopped, and then he realized they had entered a sect gate, and the Flying Boat descended; the three of them were ushered out.

Had they arrived at the other sect's gate?

Already?

The Flying Boat they were on didn't fly fast; otherwise, they wouldn't have been caught up by Linghu Gudu.

Yet now, they had quickly reached the other party's sect gate, which must mean that this sect gate was also not far from the coastline.

This was the foremost Immortal Sect in the East Wilderness, and on this journey, aside from the newly-established Celestial Plum Sect, they hadn't seen any other Immortal Sects.

Therefore, upon their invasion from East Breeze into East Wilderness, they would soon face this terrifying, number one Immortal Sect!

This...

The three of them were quickly detained; while being detained, although they didn't see the full strength of Hundred Peaks Sect, they did witness several at the Golden Core Stage.

They saw mountain after mountain, building after ancient building.

Clearly, this Immortal Sect didn't become the first in the East Wilderness simply because it had a batch of top experts—it was inherently powerful!

Obviously, this was an Immortal Sect with a legacy spanning tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of years!

After detaining the three, Hundred Peaks Sect temporarily paid them no more attention, and Nie Jie reached out to the major sects to inform them of their situation, requesting that the major sects send experts to the borders of Great Lai Dynasty.

After all, if East Breeze was to attack, they couldn't possibly expect the Hundred Peaks Sect alone to withstand them.

Meanwhile, at the other end of East Wilderness Continent, Cao Zhen, along with his two disciples, because of the great distance between one end of the continent to another, though he had set off early, was still on the way.

During the flight, he also contacted his disciples and soon found out about the invasion by East Breeze and also about the peculiarities of the fog.

"So, the fog in the Great Lai Dynasty obstructs our entry but allows others to enter our East Wilderness.

Does that mean, conversely, that people from the other end of our East Wilderness can't enter through the fog, but our people can get through it to another region?"

Despite flying rigorously, Cao Zhen and his disciples flew for a long, long time, nearly two months in total, before finally arriving at the Extreme Frontier Dynasty.

It's fair to say that the Extreme Frontier Dynasty is the farthest from Hundred Peaks Sect, his first time visiting Extreme Frontier Dynasty.

Whether it's because the edges of East Wilderness are poorer or for some other reason, the several dynasties on the periphery of East Wilderness aren't very prosperous.

The Extreme Frontier Dynasty wasn't even as large as the Great Lai Dynasty, hosting only two Immortal Sects, interestingly named Cliff-Watching Sect and Alps-watching Sect.

Although small, the dynasty, with only two Immortal Sects, had considerable strength in both Cliff-Watching Sect and Alps-watching Sect.

Cao Zhen didn't linger in the Extreme Frontier Dynasty but flew directly to the junction with another continent across from the dynasty.

Nie Jie had already informed Cliff-Watching Sect and Alps-watching Sect via the Sect's chart about Cao Zhen's impending arrival.

And while they knew they likely couldn't reach East Wilderness Continent through the fog, they kept people watching over the spot.

Knowing that Cao Zhen, currently the foremost expert of East Wilderness, was coming, the Sect Leaders of both Cliff-Watching Sect and Alps-watching Sect, along with several top experts from their sects, were already waiting there.

As soon as Cao Zhen collected his Flying Boat and descended from the Void, the two Sect Leaders from the surrounding sects came to greet him.

"Greetings to Sect Leader Cao."

Even in the Extreme Frontier Dynasty, furthest from Hundred Peaks Sect, news of Cao Zhen's exploits had spread.

Cao Zhen glanced at the two men, nodded slightly towards them, and looking at the nearby fog, he no longer engaged in much conversation but gestured towards the fog and said, "I presume you all are aware of the situation with this fog? I wonder if you have sent anyone to the other side?"

"Not yet," the Sect Leader of Cliff-Watching Sect immediately shook his head. "Since we knew Sect Leader Cao was coming personally, we haven't attempted to enter the fog."

Actually, after the fog had appeared, they had thought about trying it, but given the current situation with all of East Wilderness temporarily united, they felt the need to inform the other Immortal Sects.

Although Cao Zhen wasn't acting as some Alliance Hierarch, as the top expert in East Wilderness and his Hundred Peaks Sect being the foremost Immortal Sect, they naturally informed Hundred Peaks Sect.

Then, as news came back, they also understood the situation with the fog, and they became aware that they might be able to enter another region through the fog here.

They discussed whether to enter another region before Cao Zhen's arrival to check out the situation.

However, they eventually decided against it.

East Breeze, which knew to leave experts near the fog to guard, surely the regions across from them were aware too.

If they rashly entered, they would likely be seen as invaders.

And at that point, they would face all the Immortal Sects across the entire region —their Cliff-Watching Sect and Alps-watching Sect, though strong, couldn't confront an entire region.

So they genuinely hadn't entered the fog; they just kept waiting here for Cao Zhen to arrive.

Upon hearing this, Cao Zhen nodded slightly, then looking across, he contemplated and said, "Duo Duo and Zhu Peng, wait here for now. Your master will go first to ensure there's no danger, and once it's safe, I'll signal for you to come over."
