Chapter 82: Five Peaks Opened
it dark, but Ginger Cloud's eyesight was hardly affected.It's just empty and hollow in the water. Not even the sea creatures, not even the shadows of fish or seaweed can be seen.And the entire water a...Four months have passed since Jiangyun's disappearance, and on this day, the bell rang within the Wendaosong sect, gathering all disciples. Sect Master Daitian You appeared in person and announced a piece of news that filled everyone with excitement.
Two months later, set off for Wǔfēng, start!
Crossing the Five Peaks is a shortcut for all雜役 and outer disciples to become inner disciples. However, as treasures imbued with the essence of each peak, even using them once requires a huge amount of spiritual energy from the peak master. Therefore, they can only be opened once a year.
Calculating the time, it's less than a year since we last opened the Five Peaks Challenge, but now it's opened early, naturally bringing great joy to many disciples.
To be sure, while traversing the Five Peaks is extremely challenging, it also presents a rare and valuable opportunity for disciples to hone their skills. Each of the five sacred artifacts embodies the unique mastery of its respective peak. Even in failure, the journey itself can yield profound insights into one's practice.
Many disciples who returned after failure were able to improve their realms within a short period of time. Some highly perceptive disciples in the ninth level of the meridian pathway even managed to turn misfortune into fortune, leaping directly into the realm of blessed land!
In this way, naturally each disciple wanted to challenge the Five Peaks. Unfortunately, even with powerful artifacts, there is a limit to the number of people they can accommodate. Therefore, the sect set down rules, allowing only disciples at the Sixth Meridian Opening Realm or above to participate.
This ensures that even the lowest-ranking disciples have a chance to participate, while also guaranteeing that the number of people who attempt to conquer the Five Peaks remains roughly around a thousand. On average, this means each peak only has around two hundred participants.
Though a thousand people might sound like a lot, compared to the tens of thousands of disciples in the entire Qianshen Sect, it's clearly a case of more monks than rice. It's far from enough. Therefore, in order to get the chance to challenge the Five Peaks, the disciples naturally need to work hard and cultivate diligently, reaching the Sixth Layer of Pulse Opening as soon as possible.
This can also be considered a way to encourage the disciples.
Therefore, when this news spread, almost all the disciples of Wen Dao Sect abandoned their other affairs and devoted themselves wholeheartedly to cultivation. Especially those disciples at the fourth and fifth level of Pulse Meridian Opening, they spared no expense, hoping to break through to the sixth level within these two months and thus gain the qualification to enter Wu Feng.
Time flies, two months have passed quickly.
As the first rays of sunlight pierced into Wendaomen in the morning, a grand bell rang out, and a large number of disciples began to head towards Jian Dao Feng, the main peak.
To climb the Five Peaks isn't about all five mountains opening simultaneously, but rather one mountain opens each day over a period of five days. Since the Wudao Sect primarily emphasizes swordsmanship, the first peak to open every time is inevitably the Jian Dao Peak, the main peak.
When the bell stopped ringing, a huge number of disciples had already gathered at the foot of Jian Dao Peak. It could be said that apart from those disciples on missions, almost everyone else had put down their work and rushed over to witness this grand event.
Many disciples were clearly divided into two groups. The group in front, though fewer in number, around two hundred people, had piercing gazes and radiated considerable power. They were naturally the disciples who came to challenge the peak, while the large crowd behind them were there simply to watch the spectacle.
The disciples of the Zhǎngfēng (Climbing Peak) are not all from the Sword Path Peak's outer sect or handyman disciples. Many come from other four peaks. The reason they come here is naturally because they all cultivate the sword path.
Even, even dozens of inner disciples from Wufeng Mountain probed their divine senses, wanting to see if there would be any astonishing talents in this year's Five Peaks Challenge.
Although they may appear to be in a superior position, some outer sect disciples have already reached the strength of the Blessed Land realm. However, they deliberately suppress their cultivation and wait for the opening of the Five Peaks trial.
The purpose
is to become famous in the sect when conquering Wufeng!
Moreover, anyone who successfully traverses the Five Peaks will not only have the possibility of being directly accepted as a disciple by the peak masters, but also be rewarded handsomely.
It's a pity that although these people have good intentions, very few of them are actually able to successfully pass the Five Peaks and become inner disciples.
Today, within the Question Dao Sect, there are only five people. They became inner sect disciples by passing through the Five Peaks, and they are now the disciples of the Five Peaks' masters, including Fang Yu Xuan himself.
After all, when he was taken in as a disciple by Wei Zhengyang, he wasn't even at the Fuk Di realm, and he still had the qualifications to enter Wu Feng. It was precisely because of his astonishing performance during his foray into Jian Dao Feng that he truly solidified his position as the number one inner disciple.
However, even if one doesn't make it through, as long as they stand out during the process, they will still receive extra attention from the Peak Master elders, which can also add some momentum to their future growth.
At this moment, there is still some time before the opening of the Sword Dao Peak. The many disciples watching could not suppress their inner excitement and couldn't help but discuss it, speculating about who had the best chance of successfully conquering the peak this time.
"I don't know if others can succeed, but Wuxing Feng's unscathed success is definitely possible!"
"Sister Lu You Rong, who possesses a dual-channel body, should also be capable. Her cultivation speed is astonishing; she has already reached the eighth level of the Pulse Expansion realm. And it is rumored that she has cultivated a special technique."
……
"Just shut up! All you're talking about are new disciples! Let me tell you, the two veteran outer sect disciples are the most likely to succeed."
Just as the crowd was abuzz with discussion, a lazy voice suddenly cut through the noise with a hint of disdain, catching everyone's attention.
The speaker was a short, stout man in a servant's uniform. If Ginger Cloud were here, he would recognize him; this man was Bao Yuanqiang, the one who had almost been crippled by him.
Bao Yuanqiang's fame was apparently quite well-known, and he was immediately recognized by others. "Bao Datou," someone exclaimed, "what juicy gossip have you heard this time"
"Humph," Bao Yuanqiang said with a smirk. "This is a shocking secret, not something you can just easily know."
"Alright, we know you're well-connected and claim to be the number one source of information within our sect. Please don't keep us in suspense any longer. Tell us, which two outer sect disciples are they"
"That's right, that's right! Let's treat you to a drink when we get back!"
In the midst of everyone's cheers and praise, Bao Yuanqiang smacked his lips and said, "Seeing how eager you are to learn, I'll tell you. These two outer disciples had already reached the ninth level of Pulse Opening four years ago. Two years ago, they could have entered the Blessed Land Realm, but they stubbornly suppressed their cultivation until now. Now, they are only a hair away from the Blessed Land Realm!"
"Even they wouldn't have appeared on this climb originally, but it is said that because their internal cultivation was simply too much to contain, they had to come out."
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned. Everyone dreamed of entering the Land of Bliss as soon as possible, yet there were people who could be promoted to the Land of Bliss but chose not to
Some people fell into deep thought, pondering in their minds if there were any outer disciples who fit the description.
"This is for laying the foundation!" Bao Yuanqiang said with a smug smile. "Although the Fu Di realm can be called a cultivator, the Tong Mai realm is the foundation! The firmer the foundation, the smaller the difficulty of future improvement!"
Naturally, everyone became even more curious: "Who are these two people How can they possess such incredible willpower and endurance"
Bao Yuanqiang let out a sly chuckle, "Don't tell you guys yet, besides these two, aren't you all expecting someone else"
Who are you expecting
Bao Yuanqiang remained silent, but his gaze was fixed on — Cang Feng!
