Raise a sword!

The other party's identity is becoming increasingly obvious.

No matter how hard Jiang Peng racked her brains, she never imagined that the famous Peak Master of Ni Chang, the only daughter of a Golden Core cultivator, would look like such a young girl.

Even the sect elder's robe looked like a child wearing an adult's clothes on him, creating an indescribable sense of absurdity and incongruity.

The jade-like hand she had seen before once again reached over Jiang Peng's shoulder, this time her gaze was fixed on the sausage on the table.

"The sausages are delicious too, did you make them yourself?"

"Um."

"I love it, make more next time."

After saying that, Peak Master Ni Chang rubbed her hand on Jiang Peng's clothes, but suddenly flipped her palm and pressed it on Jiang Peng's shoulder.

The next moment, Jiang Peng felt dizzy and disoriented.

When he came to his senses again, he found himself in an unfamiliar mountain forest.

"Master Ni Chang, where is this place?"

"The forbidden area in the back mountain of the sect, below which a third-order great demon is suppressed in the forest, and two Golden Core cultivators are also cultivating here."

Jiang Peng clicked his tongue in amazement.

Looking across the entire Cangshan Sect, perhaps only this person dares to enter and leave the forbidden area of ​​the mountain gate so recklessly.

Furthermore, the Cangshan Sect actually suppressed a great demon comparable to a Golden Core cultivator.

Is such a secret really being revealed so openly?

At the same time, Ni Chang also let go and came to the opposite side of Jiang Peng.

"Show me what you've got. I can give you a chance regarding the Spirit Transformation Pool, but if you're not strong enough, you'd be better off staying in the sect... lest you die and Junior Brother Qin gets angry and refuses to refine pills for me."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Peng took a deep breath and calmed down the complex thoughts in her mind.

Although things took an unexpected turn, ultimately it all comes down to strength.

A spiritual fire rose from the palm hidden in the sleeve; it was not a purple fire, but a blue flame formed from spiritual energy.

The azure flames enveloped the Heavenly Star Sword, and the blade trembled slightly twice before being forcibly suppressed by Jiang Peng and returned to calm.

"Hmm, not bad aura." Peak Master Ni Chang's eyes lit up.

She didn't investigate Jiang Peng's specific situation to avoid losing the novelty and surprise, but she could keenly sense that although Jiang Peng hadn't made any move, her temperament was completely different from before.

Jiang Peng just now was like a beautiful piece of jade, with a smooth exterior and a radiant, restrained spirit.

But at this moment, Jiang Peng suddenly became sharp and assertive.

The next moment, Jiang Peng suddenly raised her hand.

Streaks of fire flew from his fingertips and exploded in front of the Rainbow Peak Master.

Jiang Peng noticed that it was an invisible spiritual energy shield.

"The power is passable, but how can I learn to transform spiritual energy into fire? Although there are fire-type techniques at the Foundation Establishment level in the sect, none of those techniques contain such profound methods as transforming spiritual energy into fire."

"I joined the sect with some skills already," Jiang Peng explained, while simultaneously activating his Wind Chasing Boots, transforming into a blur as he swiftly arrived before Peak Master Ni Chang.

Without holding back at all, he struck out fiercely with a palm, revealing his body refinement realm of copper skin and iron bones combined with dragon and tiger strength in front of Ni Chang.

"You're an alchemist, yet you also cultivate your body; you're quite the ambitious person..."

With a casual wave of his hand, the Peak Master of Rainbow Robes deflected the force in Jiang Peng's palm that was powerful enough to split mountains and shatter rocks, and pushed Jiang Peng away at the same time.

"A respectable level of body refinement. It seems you've persisted for quite some time. If that's the case, you'll save a lot of time in the later stages of Qi Refining... Hmm, you're likely to reach Foundation Establishment in the future."

At this point, Peak Master Ni Chang suddenly changed the subject.

"But if that's all, you might not be able to save your life against a Foundation Establishment evil cultivator... and in just a short while, you seem to have already consumed more than 30% of your spiritual power."

The Peak Master of Rainbow Peak narrowed her eyes slightly.

"This doesn't seem to match the solid foundation you've demonstrated."

Almost the instant the Peak Master of Rainbow Peak finished speaking.

A sword light shot out from Jiang Peng's sleeve, so fast that even Jiang Peng himself couldn't catch a trace of it.

"This is the Hidden Edge Sword Technique!" Jiang Peng's eyes lit up.

From the moment he began to gather his strength until this very moment, only a short time had passed, but the power displayed by the Hidden Edge Sword Technique had already surpassed Jiang Peng's level seven Qi Refining.

As expected, it's a method that can overcome great limitations to fight enemies; it's already so extraordinary even in just a small test.

However, the only drawback is that suppressing the sharpness of the magic sword is more difficult than imagined. Just now, Ni Chang said that Jiang Peng's spiritual power was being consumed too quickly, which was probably because Jiang Peng was hiding his sharpness in the dark.

Meanwhile, a hint of surprise finally appeared in the eyes of the Peak Master of the Rainbow Peak opposite them.

Suddenly, she turned to the side, and immediately after she had just been standing there, an extremely blurry sword shadow flew past.

"So fast. Is this why your spiritual energy is depleted?"

But as soon as Ke Ni Chang finished speaking, she suddenly frowned and then raised her right hand to grab behind her.

But before the grasp could fall, Ni Chang withdrew her hand and dodged to the side once again.

The next moment, the bracelet on Ni Chang's wrist suddenly emitted a faint glow.

Jiang Peng's magic sword visibly slowed down, eventually coming to a stop in front of Ni Chang.

"A top-grade first-tier magic sword, plus decent sword control skills."

The light on the bracelet dimmed, and the magic sword quickly returned to Jiang Peng's hand, shrinking back down and disappearing into her sleeve.

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Peng felt the world spinning around her.

When his vision returned, he was already back on Azure Mist Peak.

It was as if nothing had happened, except that the aspic and sausage on the table had disappeared.

Upon seeing Jiang Peng appear, Su Zhi and Mei Jinhe immediately shrank back and quietly left.

Jiang Peng didn't have time to pay attention to the two of them for the moment, as he didn't know whether he had passed the test of the Peak Master of Ni Chang.

However, just as Jiang Peng was hesitating, the voice of the Peak Master of Ni Chang rang in her ears.

"Come to the Neon Summit in three days. Bring me some of that sausage from earlier."

Jiang Peng's eyes lit up.

"Your disciple obeys."

...

The back mountain.

After seeing Jiang Peng off and leaving her words, Peak Master Ni Chang quickly returned to the scene.

She landed in front of a cave.

The cave entrance was wide open, and an old man sat on a stone at the entrance, smiling as he looked at Ni Chang.

"That kid just now has some secrets; his sword control technique has the influence of the Jade Pavilion Sword Art Academy," said Peak Master Ni Chang.

"The ancient sword-nurturing techniques were very famous. The sword-nurturing techniques that have been passed down to this day all seem to originate from the same source, but the details are different." The old man smiled nonchalantly.

"Accumulating power, isn't that just the way to cultivate swordsmanship? True refinement and concealing the edge, there are only two ways to cultivate a sword. Obviously, that kid mainly focuses on true refinement, while he uses concealing the edge as a means of combat... He's a talent."

The Peak Master of Ni Chang Peak clearly didn't care, and simply asked, "Father, is there any progress on the matter of Chen Kingdom?"

The old man was still smiling.

"Chen is ignorant of his own limitations and insists on courting death."

Upon hearing this, Peak Master Ni Chang's eyes lit up.

"So it's already confirmed?"

The old man did not respond further, but simply waved his hand.

"Take care of your own affairs. A great battle is imminent. The Cang Kingdom is the rear of the Cangshan Sect. At this critical moment, there must be no changes."
