Chapter 791: Peak Master

Sage moved quickly not wanting the news of his appearance to travel faster than he did. He walked back out of Holy Flame City of the sect and then jumped onto the Red Comet. He shot into the air, crossing over the vast territory of the Holy Flame Province. Unlike others that would keep all the power of their sect centralized, the Holy Flame Sect controlled the whole province and the Peak Masters truly spent most of their time upon their peaks. These peaks were great mountains distributed around the giant crater that was the Holy Flame Province. No matter which direction someone approached or escaped to, there was a Peak Master on the border.

Of course, that was only a general term. There were only five Peak Masters, but they were spread out around the border of the province rather than all clustered together. Sage believed it was because of the Sects confidence in their arrays. As some of the top professionals in not just the Kingdom, but he believed the entire Empire, their formations were extraordinary. His opinion was somewhat jaded as hed trained to be a Formation Master here and the arrogance of the others in the profession had rubbed off on him. Yet, what he did know was that the Holy Flame Sect had a Sect Protecting Array of immense proportions. It didnt just protect a city, it could protect the entire Province.

At least, that was the legend. Hed never actually seen the array being activated and he wasnt important enough to the Holy Flame Sect in the past to ever be privy to secrets at that level. He had to admit that he was curious to learn more, but there were more important things on his agenda. Especially at this time as he approached one of the larger mountains around the crater, one that was covered with switchback roads that were dotted with large villas. Some of the Peak Masters liked to be isolated on their peaks, while others surrounded themselves with their disciples and other followers. This fellow seemed to be one of the latter.

As he flew through the air, Sage reached out with his Spiritual Sense to test the array around the Peak. The Holy Flame Sect didnt just have an array around the province, it also had many more within it. It was known as a paradise for craftsmen because of its fortress-like nature. Others like to call it a big turtle shell for all the weaklings to hide inside, but more often than not the ones who dared to insult them like that would be discouraged or beaten by their own friends. In some cases a few people had even been disowned by their families for saying such things. So many of the best pills, weapons, armor, talismans, foods, formations and other products could only be purchased from the Holy Flame Sect and they didnt dare to make their own Sect into an enemy. The initial posting of this chapter occurred via Ñøv€l-B!n.

With his identity token and nobody in the Sect triggering the array against him, Sage passed through the outer formation and zipped through the air towards the flattened top of the peak where an immense palace was built. A few of the sect members on guard in front of the palace were taken aback at the sudden appearance of someone flying through the air towards them, but Sage held up his token to stop them from panicking. The Red Comet came to a stop beside them and he stepped off, standing outside the gates to the palace. He put away his flying tool and released his aura. With the force of his law power surrounding them and the token to prove his identity as a Sect member, he strode past them before they could react and stepped into the Peak Masters palace.

Sage did a lap around the room and was disappointed to not find the Peak Master to be present. He was going to continue his search when a large crowd of cultivators burst through the doors and gave him a fierce look. He smiled at them, releasing his aura and walking towards the Core Formation Cultivator in the lead, The Peak Masters hospitality truly leaves much to be desired. With how illustrious Lian Xuegangs reputation is, I was quite surprised to get such a lukewarm reception. Are you the one responsible for that?

The mans face twisted into anger for only an instant before he smiled brightly and opened his arms wide, Welcome to the Lian Palace! Please forgive us for our inattention. Weve been having trouble with some of our attendants lately. Dont worry, theyll be punished harshly for such a gross oversight.

The man gave him a low bow and pretended like it really was their fault and not that Sage had just barged his way in.

Please, come with me, let me take you for some refreshments. You must be exhausted from your travels. The Peak Master is currently in the middle of refining a great pill, but as soon as he is finished Im sure he will be overjoyed to see you, Esteemed One.

The Peak Master is refining a great pill? He already started without me? Hurry, take me to him now!
