Chapter 176 The New Tenth Peak

“Ahhhhh! How could you be this cruel and treat your sect mate in this manner?! I’m going to kill you today!” Ge Lian said in anger. He did not expect Jun Wutian to die under Lin Fan’s hands for real. Jun Wutian was the disciple that he had shown great support to and the next patriarch of the Magnificent Flame Sect!

But now, Jun Wutian had died under some disciple’s foot! How can I tolerate or turn a blind eye to this?

Just as Ge Lian was about to launch an attack at Lin Fan, a figure appeared in front of him. “Do you wish to die?” A cold voice rang out.

“You…” Ge Lian looked at Tian Xu angrily. He took back his attack forcefully. He wasn’t confident in going against Tian Xu, but he could not watch Jun Wutian die in vain.

“Tian Xu, if you continue your actions, the sect will be destroyed by you!” Ge Lian said in anger.

Tian Xu ignored Ge Lian and raised his hands. A special force floated out of Jun Wutian’s body.

Huo Rong sighed at the scene. Another evil practice, searching of the soul. How are we going to lead the sect in the right direction when an elder is performing such a practice in front of so many disciples?

But he did not turn away from the scene.

Numerous images started to show.

Included were the scenes of Jun Wutian murdering the three elders of the Imperial Sword Pavilion and sending the four disciples to assassinate Lin Fan.

The spectating disciples were unable to believe their eyes. They could not believe that their Senior Brother Jun would be such an evil person behind their backs.

The three elders of the Imperial Sword Pavilion had always been loyal to the Magnificent Flame Sect and had always been protecting the sect from danger, but they died terrible deaths at Jun Wutian’s hand. “Hmm?” Just as Elder Tian Xu was preparing to stop his action, he realized there was a weird image among the rest, thus he took it out separately.

In the image, Jun Wutian was kneeling on the ground. There was a black figure in front of him. However, the black figure was so blurry that the person’s face could not be seen.

“This…” Hup Rong’s expression changed drastically as if something had come to his mind.

Crack!

Within a split second, there was a drastic change to the area. Black clouds sprawled across the gray skies, and a crack formed between the black clouds.

A terrifying force filled the area. All disciples were unable to tolerate the force as they lay down on their stomachs while being drenched in sweat, looking as if they were about to die.

A giant hand came for the arena from the crack. It had pitch-black nails and it resembled the claws of a devil.

Lin Fan looked up at the giant hand. Jun Wutian’s earth energy giant hand is nothing compared to this hand.

“Divine Religion, how dare you put your hand in the Magnificent Flame Sect!?” Tian Xu shouted in anger. He turned into a ray of light and shot up to the sky. A strong force exploded in the air, making space crack.

The giant hand snapped its fingers, and five meteorites with black tails came shooting at the sect.

“Audacious!” Tian Xu lifted his hand. It seemed like a simple act, but it was as if he was holding up the skies. He crushed the meteorites with his hands, and the meteorites disappeared into nothingness.

“Senior Brother, he’s here to get the body!” Huo Rong yelled and sent an attack toward the ground. But a black fog emerged from the ground, blocking off Huo Rong’s attack. A black tentacle could be seen coming up from the ground, binding Jun Wutian’s body and trying to pull it down to the ground.

Seeing the storage ring on Jun Wutian’s finger, an idea crossed Lin Fan’s mind. He exerted Dragon Flying to the Ninth Heavens and grabbed the finger tightly, pulling the storage ring over to himself forcefully.

The tentacle did not expect that there would be anyone who dared to come up to snatch something off Jun Wutian. The force that was pulling away from it was so strong that it made it feel that it would be unable to withstand it.

Just as Lin Fan was ready to take an attack from the tentacle, Huo Rong came next to him and suppressed the tentacle. “Get to the side. This is not something that you should be involved in.” Huo Rong pushed Lin Fan to the side sternly.

At the same time, Tian Xu frowned upon seeing that the body was being snatched away. The giant claw was making its way out of the Magnificent Flame Sect and back into the crack.

“Hmph! Do you think you can come and leave as and when you like? The Magnificent Flame Sect is not a place where you can act as you like!” Tian Xu said, disappearing from the spot. When he returned, a white line could be seen between the skies and the earth, chopping the giant hand off. The line was a crack between the skies and the earth.

Controlling heaven and earth with just a thought.

Tian Xu’s strongest skill was that he could separate heaven and earth.

The giant hand continued to struggle. It came down at the Magnificent Flame Sect disciples. The pressure of the hand made the disciples feel like there was a giant mountain pressing down on them.

“Deathbed struggle. Just stay here forever.” Tian Xu’s long beard continued to extend and seep into empty space. When it reappeared, the giant hand was bound up by it. Rays of light could be seen shining on the beard as it shrank constantly. The giant hand shrunk too and ended up having to disappear.

Tian Xu wanted to enter the crack to take a look, but it was too late. The crack closed up all of a sudden, and the area was peaceful again.

At this moment, everything had disappeared into thin air. All disciples had recovered. Fear was written all over their faces. It felt like they had returned from the edge of death.

Huo Rong came to Tian Xu. “Senior Brother, how dare the Divine Religion put their hands in the Magnificent Flame Sect?”

“It’s a pity that he managed to escape. If he was a bit slower, I would’ve been able to discover his hideout and destroy the religion within no time,” Tian Xu said, looking at the sky. “But this should be the act of the guardian of the Divine Religion. They took such a great risk just to get Jun Wutian’s body? I guess there must be a lot more that we are unaware of.”

Huo Rong said nothing more. There were still many disciples around, so it was not the right time to talk about this.

Similarly, further in the sect, the few energies that were emitted previously disappeared as soon as it was settled.

Just then, Elder Tian Xu turned to the arena. “Jun Wutian murdered the three elders of the Imperial Sword Pavilion and planned to assassinate his fellow sect mate. He has even worked with a dangerous cult. We should punish those who deserve it, so from today onwards, Heaven’s Retribution Peak will be demolished.

As soon as he finished his words, Heaven’s Retribution Peak disappeared with just smack.

Lin Fan was more than excited to see his master perform such an act. He’s so powerful, but I believe that, with my ability, I’ll be able to overtake my master within no time.

However, this is not the end yet.

“Zhan Hongdi, is there anything you wish to say?” Lin Fan scanned the place. Currently, Zhan Hongdi was at a loss. He lost his fighting spirit and bowed to Lin Fan, admitting defeat. “I hope Senior Brother Lin-“.

But before he could finish his words, Zhan Hongdi felt goosebumps all over his body. When he realized what was going on, it was too late. A strong force was coming at him.

Bang!

He was punched in the stomach. Zhan Hongdi vomited blood and squatted onto the ground, clutching his stomach. He couldn’t stop coughing His face and neck were all red. It felt as if his body was about to explode.

“Remember that. If you act presumptuously again, that won’t be your only consequence.

“If you’re unhappy, come at me openly without tricks. I’ll spare your life since you’re my sect mate, but if you dare to try to assassinate me, you will be the next Jun Wutian.”

It was a suffocating scene for the disciples.

To them, they had just witnessed an unbelievable incident.

Senior Brother Lin had taken down the religious brother with just one punch, killed Jun Wutian with one stomp, and made Zhan Hongdi dare not retaliate. This power and influence of Senior Brother Lin is incredible!

Tyrannical and invincible. He is incredibly powerful!

Just then, Lin Fan turned to Elder Tian Xu and bowed. “Master, I would like to establish the new tenth peak and name it Invincible.”

Adrenaline was coursing through the veins of Lu Qiming and his other friends too. They shared a glance and cheered for Lin Fan. “Senior Brother Lin is invincible! I will guard him when he establishes the tenth peak!” “Me too!” Zhang Long cheered.

At this moment, the other disciples were aware that Lin Fan had blossomed. He was now above others, and the other seven peak leaders might be the only ones who could take Lin Fan down.

As for Zhan Hongdi and Wan Zhongtian, they had already lost the chance.

Their actions previously were no different from conceding defeat, and they might not have the chance to redeem themselves in the future.

Elder Ge Lian wanted to stop Lin Fan from being the tenth peak leader, but the thought of Jun Wutian’s wrongdoings shamed him.

He had shown Jun Wutian support, and yet Jun Wutian murdered the three elders of the Imperial Sword Pavilion, tried to assassinate Lin Fan, and worked with a cult. All of these were serious crimes.

If not for this incident, they would never have known, and it would’ve been a disaster if Jun Wutian became the next patriarch. The Magnificent Flame Sect might’ve perished in the future.

Lin Fan pressed his hands down. “If any senior or junior brother thinks that I, Lin Fan, am not fit to establish the tenth peak, you can challenge me.”

The crowd shook their heads in unison. Who dares to challenge you? Your performance previously is enough to make our legs go weak in fear.

Tian Xu nodded in satisfaction. It seemed that his disciple was already well prepared.

“Senior Brother, it seems to be against the rules to establish a peak when a disciple is not a first-class inner disciple.” Huo Rong was a stickler for the rules and regulations of the sect, thus he was reminding Tian Xu about it even if he was going to turn a deaf ear to it.

“It’s not a big deal. You’re so hidebound by convention.” Tian Xu eyed Huo Rong. He’s going to spend his life revolving around rules and not dare to step over the limit.

But Tian Xu was aware that the sect needed to have such a person. They were the ones that could maintain order in the sect.

Huo Rong shook his head and remained silent, but he still felt uncomfortable about Tian xu’s decision. If there are no rules, then how are we going to keep things in order? And how is the sect going to get stronger?

Tian Xu turned to the depths of the sect and voiced his request. “Senior Brother, do you approve of my disciple establishing the tenth peak?”

Within no time, a voice could be heard coming from there.

“Yes.”

Tian Xu then flung his sleeves and turned toward Lin Fan. “Disciple, today, Master will make you the tenth peak personally. It will be the one and only true peak in the sect.”
