Xu Guangwen floated in mid-air, reaching out to Su Yuan: "You go first!"
Su Yuan smiled: "Then I won't stand on ceremony!"
From Su Yuan's sleeve, nine Flying Swords flew out.
Then Su Yuan mobilized the higher-grade true essence near the nine Golden Sands in his Dantian and injected it into the Flying Swords, allowing the nine Flying Swords to release even greater power!
"Big Dipper Sword Array, Seven Stars Fall!"
The nine Flying Swords immediately ascended high into the sky, intertwining to form a large Big Dipper array. Two of the Flying Swords were hidden within the array, with only seven visible.
The moment the seven Flying Swords descended, the Metal attribute spiritual energy between heaven and earth was drawn by the Metal intent, converging on the surface of the seven Flying Swords, making them appear as if plated with a layer of dazzling golden light!
"Intent!"
Xu Guangwen instantly saw the significance of that manifestation of heaven and earth spiritual energy. The power of heaven and earth could only bring pressure, while the intent of heaven and earth itself could both amplify power and mobilize heaven and earth spiritual energy, secondarily amplifying one's own power!
With only cultivation around the early Core Formation stage, he had already comprehended intent. What kind of talent was this? Xu Guangwen realized he had been hasty. With such talent, becoming a Peak master was perfectly reasonable.
However, since the fight had begun, it naturally had to continue!
Xu Guangwen pointed a finger, and a wisp of flame emerged from his fingertip, rapidly expanding and transforming into a lifelike firebird. With a flap of its wings, it soared into the sky.
The firebird collided with the Big Dipper Sword Array in mid-air. The intense tremor instantly spread out, and the brilliant golden light and dazzling firelight dissipated against each other during the clash.
Finally, the nine Flying Swords flew back. The spirituality within the Flying Swords transmitted a feeling of discomfort to Su Yuan.
Looking at Xu Guangwen, although the firebird had dissipated, the outcome seemed to have been within his estimation all along, and it was even possible that this was the result of his precise control.
Xu Guangwen's Peak Core Formation cultivation was completely genuine. His strength was unmatched on Hidden Peak, and it was no wonder he had always wanted to be the Peak master.
"It's my turn!"
A Flying Sword flew out from Xu Guangwen's sleeve. The fiery red Flying Sword contained a powerful aura; this was clearly a Treasure Artifact!
Magic Artifacts, Spirit Artifacts, Treasure Artifacts. Treasure Artifacts are items used by the Core Formation stage. 'Treasure' implies 'precious'. Every Treasure Artifact is highly valuable and extremely rare. Some Nascent Soul Cultivators still use Treasure Artifacts, which shows how precious they are.
"Go!"
Flames burned on the Flying Sword, and it shot out in an instant. This strike from Xu Guangwen was astonishingly powerful!
Su Yuan's expression was calm. The moment the Flying Sword reached him.
He directly activated the jade pot in his hand. An invisible suppressive force instantly enveloped Xu Guangwen and the fiery red Flying Sword in front of Su Yuan.
At this moment, the fiery red Flying Sword was like a vital point seized by a giant dragon, frozen in mid-air. The terrifying power of the flames could not be unleashed at all. The spirituality within the Treasure Artifact had reached an extremely high level, and at this moment, it sent a wave of fear, helplessness, and extreme panic towards Xu Guangwen.
However, at this moment, Xu Guangwen also felt the same. He felt a force descend out of thin air, acting directly on his body, sealing his Sea of Consciousness and Dantian!
His Core Formation inside his body was like all its vital points had been locked, instantly losing all power! He felt the entire world conveying intense malice towards him. That sense of life-and-death crisis, with no way to ascend to the heavens or descend to the earth, made his heart tremble and his pupils contract violently!
He couldn't even maintain his body's suspension, yet he was suppressed in mid-air by that suppressive force, unable to fall!
Suddenly, the feeling of suppression vanished!
Xu Guangwen returned to normal.
Then he saw his fiery red Treasure Sword, 'carrying powerful might', directly strike Su Yuan, causing his Peak master-grade magic robe to dim by three points. Su Yuan, unable to withstand the impact, was sent flying backward, crashing into the forest below.
"Wait!" Xu Guangwen's eyes widened.
He tried to summon the Flying Sword back. This time, the Treasure Sword flew back freely, its spirituality conveying a sense of relief at surviving a disaster.
He realized that what had just happened wasn't an illusion. He had indeed been attacked by some method of Su Yuan's, without any power to resist. Just now, if anyone had simply flicked their sword finger, he would have died. He couldn't even activate the defense of the magic robe on his body!
At this moment, Su Yuan flew up, covered in leaves and broken branches, looking somewhat disheveled.
He cupped his hands and said: "Xu Guangwen, I lost. Your strength is far above mine. I am willing to hand over this position of Peak master!"
With a wave of his hand, the Peak master token appeared in his hand, along with a brand new set of Peak master magic robes. Su Yuan immediately severed the recognition of ownership and then tossed them to Xu Guangwen.
While Xu Guangwen was stunned, Su Yuan added: "From now on, I will be an ordinary Elder of Three Absolutes Peak. I hope Peak Master Xu can look after me in the future and just not assign me any tasks!"
After speaking, he cupped his hands again, then flew away towards the distance. Due to his excessive speed, the leaves and broken branches on his body continuously fell off. Sharp-eyed Cultivators could notice that Su Yuan had no injuries whatsoever, not even a wrinkle on his clothes.
Xu Guangwen was still in a state of confusion.
The Core Formation True Persons nearby gathered around.
"Congratulations, congratulations!"
"Congratulations to Peak Master Xu on taking office!"
"Peak Master, from now on we will rely on your leadership to move forward!"
"The name Three Absolutes Peak is too casual, Peak Master, why not apply to change it?"
The voices of the surrounding Core Formation Elders woke Xu Guangwen up.
He frowned as he looked at the token in his hand, then glanced at another group of Core Formation Elders. They hadn't immediately come up to congratulate him on his 'victory'. Instead, their faces held strange expressions, as if wanting to speak but hesitating.
Xu Guangwen looked at the Peak master token in his hand and finally suppressed the urge to send it back.
'What was that situation just now? I should have already lost by then, right? Did that Su Yuan deliberately lose to me? Why? How long has he been the Peak master? He doesn't have enough contribution points at all. Does he not need the Peak master's resources?' Xu Guangwen wondered.
At this moment.
Somewhere in a Secret Realm within the Seven Absolutes Realm.
The members of the Nascent Soul Elder Council were replaying the battle scene they had just witnessed.
A Nascent Soul Elder couldn't help but ask, "What kind of technique was that just now? I don't understand it."
"It seems like a method of controlling heaven and earth, but how can it control a Peak Core Formation Cultivator?"
Many Nascent Soul Elders looked towards the Spirit Transformation Elders in the main seats, especially focusing on Elder Nangong Xianweng.
Because he was the Spirit Transformation Elder most familiar with Su Yuan.
Elder Nangong Xianweng frowned and shook his head: "This should be a suppressive technique, and it was activated by Su Yuan relying on some treasure, but it's not a one-time treasure or Talisman, but truly his own power."
After speaking, he exchanged glances with a few Spirit Transformation Elders, and they all nodded.
The dozens of Nascent Soul Elders had varied expressions.
"I propose increasing Su Yuan's resource supply to the highest tier. Agree or disagree?" Elder Nangong Xianweng said.
Dozens of council members began casting their votes. Each Nascent Soul Elder had one vote, each Spirit Transformation Elder's vote counted as ten, and the Sect Master also had ten votes.
Elder Nangong Xianweng confirmed the vote count and said: "One hundred twenty-eight votes in favor, thirty-two abstentions. This proposal passes."
The high-level meeting concluded.
And Su Yuan, watching remotely, revealed a smile.
As for being a Peak master or whatever, whoever wants to be one can be one. As long as his resources are in place, that's fine.
At this moment, in the meeting, Gu Qingzhu frowned and said: "Has the position of Peak Master of Three Absolutes Peak been transferred just like that? Isn't it too much of a joke?"
Clearly, he wanted to help Su Yuan get the Peak master position back.
Su Yuan saw this scene remotely and was so angry he almost spat blood: Sect Master Gu, I really thank you!
The Nascent Soul Cultivators began discussing.
Elder Nangong Xianweng said nonchalantly: "It's fine. The founding ancestor becoming a Peak master was originally just a formality. It's enough that he has served. Historically, after founding ancestors left their Legacy, they would soon go out into the world to gain experience, and a successor would quickly appear within the Peak. This doesn't affect anything. Didn't you see that Su Yuan himself doesn't want to be the Peak master?"
Hearing this, Gu Qingzhu didn't bring it up again.
Su Yuan saw this scene, breathed a sigh of relief, and muttered to himself: "It seems I can relax and lay low in peace. Also, I won't go out for experience. I'll wait until I truly reach a Bottleneck!"
Su Yuan flew rapidly across Three Absolutes Peak and soon arrived at the location of a brand new cave dwelling.
This was one of the rare Tier 4 cave dwellings within Three Absolutes Peak, his future residence that he had reserved in advance using the Peak master token.
Su Yuan overlooked from mid-air. This was a small and exquisite hill, about seven hundred meters high. The hill had waterfalls, valleys, canyons, high cliffs, forests, rivers, and grasslands, all complete. The entire small mountain was where Su Yuan's cave dwelling was located, and a complete Tier 4 array surrounded the entire hill.
Su Yuan pressed his token onto the array, and this cave dwelling officially became his.
When he stepped across the array and entered the mountain, he immediately felt the rich spiritual energy rushing towards him. As expected of a Tier 4 cave dwelling, the spiritual energy concentration was astonishingly high. This place could already meet the cultivation needs of Nascent Soul Cultivators.
There were already built structures all over the mountain. Su Yuan went directly to the mountaintop. At a glance, he saw a large area of spiritual fields filled with rich and pure spiritual energy. They were currently empty.
"This is too wasteful, right? In such high-grade spiritual fields, there are actually no spiritual plants planted. Isn't this pure waste?"
Su Yuan felt heartbroken. There were surprisingly ten mu of Tier 4 spiritual fields here, three hundred mu of Tier 3 spiritual fields, even more Tier 2 spiritual fields, and no Tier 1 spiritual fields were visible. Such resources were being wasted here like this.
Before, when he was at Profound Absolutes Peak and saw those two mu of Tier 1 spiritual fields, he had wanted to plant some spiritual plants, but he had a premonition that he wouldn't stay there for too long, so he didn't plant any.
Now he estimated that he would be staying in this cave dwelling for a long time in the future, so the urge to farm became increasingly difficult to suppress.
