Legend of the Monster
Chaptre 296. The Eight Sect Alliance
“If you lower your cultivation level to the first stage of Star King, it's the same you want to become a punching bag for me! So, it's best to lower your cultivation level to the fourth stage of Star King. Then use also your strongest technique to fight me,” Ling Tian said in response to Yan Qingshan's words.
“What?!” Yan Qingshan and Meng Wanlian exclaimed simultaneously upon hearing Ling Tian's speech.
“Gu—guru! Isn't your cultivation level only at the first stage of Star King,” asked Yan Qingshan in a stammered tone. “If I use the cultivation level at the fourth stage of Star King, it is the same as an unfair fight for you.”
“Aaiihh ... Just follow what I say! You will know for yourself the answer when you have fought with me,” Ling Tian replied grumbling.
“Yah ... Alright, Guru!”sahut Yan Qingshan fast.
Just as Yan Qingshan was about to lower his cultivation level, he sensed that someone was darting towards him. Before long, a middle-aged figure had appeared and bowed in salute to him.
“Greetings leader!” said the middle-aged man.
“Mmm!” Yan Qingshan nodded slowly, then said, “Is there something so important that you came to see me here?”
“Leader! The Eight Sect Alliance meeting was only 20 days away. I'm here to report that, me and the elders have chosen ten disciples to participate in this year's tournament.”
“Aahh! I've been too focused on concocting pills for the past few months, so forget about the important thing.” Yan Qingshan gasped in shock at the words of the middle-aged man. “Come back and tell them all to gather in five more days in the Disciple's field In.”
“Good, Leader!” The middle-aged man saluted back to Yan Qingshan, then instantly disappeared from his place.
After the middle-aged man left, Ling Tian asked, “Qingshan! Who is he and what is the Eight Sect Alliance?”
“He is Jiang Su who is also my own representative. As for the Alliance of the Eight Sects is a joint of the eight seventh level sects that are in the northern region of this Upper Level Sky Continent, including my Sunlight Sect. Every year, the Eight Sect Alliance would hold a meeting to test the abilities of its disciples who were under 50 years old. These disciples will also rank the sect itself,” replied Yan Qingshan with a sullen face.
“Lantas why does your face look sour like that?” asked Ling Tian again in a tone of astonishment.
“Aaiihh ... The teacher! This is because my sect continues to be at the last rank of the Eight Sect Alliance. This also made the Sunlight Sect always looked down upon by the other seventh level sects,” Yan Qingshan replied in a listless tone.
“Ciihh ... That was probably before! But now it's different because I'm here. Have you forgotten your teacher?” sahut Ling Tian while advocating his lower lip forward. “Don't call me the most handsome man in the Sky Continent if I can't make your sect the first rank.”
“Hohoho ... Sorry, Teacher! Sorry ...” Yan Qingshan who was originally pouting, was now laughing happily after remembering that there was Ling Tian supporting him. And the only person who could make a change to his sect was only his teacher.
“Gu—guru! Your Point ...”
Before Yan Qingshan finished his words, Ling Tian had already interrupted him, “How many people in this sect whose cultivation level is already at the Star Emperor stage?”
Yan Qingshan was stunned for a moment at Ling Tian's question, as he still did not understand the intent of the teacher who asked like that. Then he spoke, “Everything is five people, myself included. One of them was already at the second stage of Star Emperor, he was Jiang Su who had just come here. While the other three people were still in the first stage of the Star Emperor.”
“Do you have a Spirit Potion to make the Nine Sacred Lines Pill?” ask Ling Tian again.
“Yes, Teacher!” yan Qingshan replied briefly and excitedly. He finally began to understand with the intent of Ling Tian's previous question.
“It was so good! In that case, order them all to come to this place.”
“Good, Teacher!” yan Qingshan's att.i.tude grew even more excited. “Hmmm ... But what about the thing about testing your strength, Master?”
“We can do it next time. The most important thing now was to increase the strength of this sect. Quickly go to call them all!”
“OK, Teacher!” Yan Qingshan instantly disappeared from his place after saying so.
Seeing the departure of Yan Qingshan, Meng Wanlian who had been silent, finally spoke, “Muridku! Do you intend to raise the cultivation of all of them? Isn't it very difficult to do it to people whose cultivation level is higher than yours? Moreover they were all Emperor Star stage cultivators.”
“That's right, Master! I will find it very difficult to raise their cultivation all with my current strength. However, as long as there are my own Restoration Pills, it might make it a little easier for me to do so,” Ling Tian replied as he smiled his trademark smile.
“Hahaha ... Is that so?! How about you start with your teacher first? It would be easier compared to them.” Meng Wanlian said with a happy laugh. “I have been ten years in the ninth stage of Star King and have not been able to break through to the first stage of Star Emperor. If I cultivate normally, maybe in about five more years I have broken through those barriers.”
“Confirm, Teacher! I will make you the sixth person whose cultivation level is at the Star Emperor stage in this sect. Master's turn will arrive later after I raise the cultivation of the main pillars in our sect.”
“Ooh ... Do you want to raise your teacher's cultivation in secret without the knowledge of those people? Could it be that you want to do it in a closed room with just the two of us alone? Yeah ... All right, if that's your wish! I will open the entire outfit when you want to increase my cultivation,” joked Meng Wanlian who deliberately teased Ling Tian.
“Huuhh ... The teacher! Did you know that I am a grown man who has three wives and one child?! So, Master don't tease me with such things anymore because I am a very normal man,” grumbled Ling Tian in a complaining tone.
“Hahaha ... Even though you have several wives and children, you are still just a child in the eyes of this teacher of yours,” Meng Wanlian chirped as he laughed out loud as he saw Ling Tian's countenance was filled with black lines.
