Urban Martial Saint

Chapter 2267 - 2267: Beyond The Pinnacle's Limitations (7 Updates)

Wanyan Second Master said this, if those people who were on Mount Tai earlier heard it, it would definitely cause a sensation. In fact, just the few Wanyan family members standing by his side hearing what he said were instantly stunned. Everyone's face bore an expression of astonishment; it was clear none had heard of such a thing.

After quite a while, one person finally snapped out of it and hastily asked, "Why is it like this?"

"How am I supposed to know!" Wanyan Second Master spread his hands and said, "This is what my elder brother told me; it's a limitation on the powers of a peerless master. Truthfully, the strength of a peerless master far surpasses our imagination. If they use the supreme peak power, just like you saw the sword shadow and the long snake earlier, with our strength, it's essentially impossible to think of resisting. However, how many peerless masters have we seen actually use this supreme power? Even Corpse Ghost Dragon, when he faced Ye Qing holding the Buddha's Relic in Shenchuan City earlier, didn't use supreme peak power. This is the reason why. If Corpse Ghost Dragon had used that power, he probably wouldn't have escaped a calamity."

The crowd looked at each other, their expressions visibly more shocked.

"So does this mean Big Brother knew about these things?" A man wondered, "But how did Big Brother know? These matters of such a realm are only known by those of that realm. Could it be that Big Brother also broke through the pinnacle shackle and reached the supreme peak realm?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd simultaneously exclaimed, each face showing excitement. You should know, the supreme peak realm is extremely rare; in a thousand years, the Wanyan family has never had one. If Wanyan Hongfeng truly was a peerless master, that would be an enormous boost for the Wanyan family, and truly all members of the Wanyan family would be proud.

Wanyan Second Master glared at them and said, "Nonsense, if Big Brother had reached the supreme peak realm, how would he have died young?"

"That's true indeed." The crowd nodded in agreement. In truth, Wanyan Hongfeng's strength was indeed very formidable, at the time matching Fu Qingping, arguably the strongest core figure in the Wanyan family. Unfortunately, Wanyan Hongfeng died young; he passed away early.

Actually, based on Wanyan Hongfeng's strength, he should have lived to one hundred and fifty years old, yet oddly died in his seventies. This event was a significant blow to the entire Wanyan family. Many in the Wanyan family harbored the thought that if Wanyan Hongfeng hadn't died so early, then the current Wanyan family's strength definitely wouldn't be at this current level. Maybe their plans would already have been realized. Unfortunately, Wanyan Hongfeng died too early, and now the Wanyan family, while under the management of Wanyan Second Master, is far removed from achieving grand accomplishments.

After lamenting for a while, one person said, "Does that mean earlier The Immortal Lord used supreme peak power, was he essentially committing suicide?"

Wanyan Second Master shook his head and said, "Not necessarily; didn't I just say that some die unexpectedly, while others mysterious disappear. Actually, most mysterious disappear. This means The Immortal Lord might mysteriously vanish, rather than meet an unexpected death!"

"Mysteriously disappear? Where would they go?" The crowd was even more puzzled.

Wanyan Second Master pondered for a moment and said in a low voice, "Years ago, Big Brother also told me about this; at the time, he speculated there must be a place that can withstand Heavenly Retribution. These peerless masters, once they harness supreme peak power, must hide in this place to escape the calamity, thus avoiding unexpected death. However, they cannot emerge from this place; otherwise, they will still meet an unexpected death."

The crowd exchanged looks again, all questioning inwardly what exactly Heavenly Retribution was, and where the place that could evade Heavenly Retribution might be. In truth, what everyone pondered the most was Heavenly Retribution. What does Heavenly Retribution really mean? Could it be that heaven has consciousness? Or perhaps, is there truly a god in control of all this?

"So then, this place that can dodge Heavenly Retribution, probably hides many peerless masters!" One person gasped, looking at those around him, whispered, "If this place were discovered by someone, what a shocking revelation it would be!"

These words instantly shocked the crowd again. Yes, according to Wanyan Second Master's account, those who had used supreme peak power before mostly mysteriously vanished. If it truly is as Wanyan Second Master says, that these people hid in a place to evade Heavenly Retribution, then this place is still unknown how many peerless masters it may contain. In today's times, one peerless master is enough to shake the world; if there are indeed so many peerless masters, what a world-shaking matter it could be!

Another person said, "How about Second Brother, you first use the Heart Demon Technique to control The Immortal Lord. Call him back, and we'll get it clear!"

"You're talking nonsense!" Wanyan Second Master glared at him and said, "My Heart Demon Technique hasn't controlled The Immortal Lord's mind yet, so it cannot fully control him. Moreover, he has now fled far away, so my Heart Demon Technique cannot be performed. I see, The Immortal Lord this time is actually embracing a determined-to-succeed mindset, which is why he used supreme peak power. Judging by his behavior, he plans to leave after fighting and is unwilling to be controlled by us again. That place that can escape Heavenly Retribution probably can also deflect my Heart Demon Technique!"

In such circumstances, the crowd was also powerless. After a moment of silence, one suddenly said, "Actually, we needn't worry too much about this. Even if we lose The Immortal Lord on our side, it doesn't affect much, because Fu Qingping, just like The Immortal Lord, used supreme peak power. The Immortal Lord had to flee; Fu Qingping must also flee. It's like both our side and theirs lose a peerless master!"

These words instantly gained everyone's agreement; the crowd had been thinking about The Immortal Lord's matter and forgot about Fu Qingping. Indeed, The Immortal Lord used supreme peak power, and Fu Qingping also used supreme peak power. The Immortal Lord had to run, why wouldn't Fu Qingping have to run? Moreover, Fu Qingping's strength still surpasses The Immortal Lord's. If sacrificing The Immortal Lord could exchange for Fu Qingping, then for the Wanyan family, it is worth it.

Wanyan Second Master remained with furrowed brow, solemnly saying, "The critical issue is that Fu Qingping is not the same as The Immortal Lord!"

"Why say this?" The crowd all looked at Wanyan Second Master incredulously.

"Because Fu Qingping has just broken through the pinnacle shackle and reached the supreme peak realm. At this time, his use of supreme peak power will not bring about Heavenly Retribution. However, after this period, if he again uses supreme peak power, he will incur Heavenly Retribution!" Wanyan Second Master gazed at the crowd, solemnly said, "So, Fu Qingping's use of supreme peak power this time bears no impact on him. As long as he doesn't utilize supreme peak power later, he won't meet this crisis!"

"Ah?" The crowd stared slack-jawed, stunned that such a thing existed. So now, they really lost out badly. The Immortal Lord fled, while Fu Qingping remains unharmed. In the future, Fu Qingping will surely target the Wanyan family with full force, is it not that the Wanyan family has gained a great enemy?

"Now you understand why I am so distressed!" Wanyan Second Master's face showed a vexed expression and said, "Alas, I never expected The Immortal Lord to wield supreme peak power, strike with all his strength, yet unable to kill Fu Qingping. It seems, this Fu Qingping might be the biggest variable in our family's plans."

The crowd exchanged looks. Tonight, after witnessing Fu Qingping's prowess, they already understood fully well, regarding Fu Qingping, they are completely powerless. Given the current circumstances, apart from Corpse Ghost Dragon taking action and directly killing Fu Qingping, they have no other way to deal with Fu Qingping.

Just as the crowd remained silent, suddenly Wanyan Second Master's mobile phone rang. Wanyan Second Master picked up the phone and stepped aside; after speaking merely two sentences, his face drastically changed.

"Let's go, follow me down the mountain!" Wanyan Second Master put down the phone and immediately beckoned the crowd to follow him away.

"Second Brother, are we going down the mountain now?" One quickly blocked Wanyan Second Master and said, "The Seven Steering Committees of Hong Alliance Twelve Green Halls, and those people from the World Alliance just headed down the mountain, perhaps has not entirely cleared out yet. If we go down now, we may encounter them, and that would be dangerous. Now all consider us as their main enemy, if we appear recklessly, they may very well attack us!"

The rest of the crowd also showed the same concern; after all, the mountain below was now surrounded by acme masters, with two supreme peak masters overseeing. If they went down now, wouldn't they be courting death?

"Not descending from this side, but from the other side!" Wanyan Second Master said sternly, as he had already started running, clearly anxious.

Seeing Wanyan Second Master so, the crowd felt puzzled, unsure of what had happened for Wanyan Second Master to suddenly become so urgent. Nevertheless, none dared delay, quickly following Wanyan Second Master as they rushed out.

"Second Brother, what happened?" One asked while running.

Wanyan Second Master took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Our base at Mount Tai was just attacked. All the Wanyan members inside, none survived; they were all killed!"
