nJiang Lan would naturally look up to confirm if someone had appeared.

nHe did not sense anyone just now.

nWhen he looked up, he realized that the other party was also very surprised.

nIt was as if he had just seen him as well.

nIt was a young man.

nHe was wearing the Kunlun Mountain disciple uniform.

nHis cultivation was at the perfected Golden Core realm.

n“Is this the senior brother of the First Summit that they’re talking about? He’s trying to break through to the Essence Soul realm here?”

nJiang Lan immediately made a guess.

nAt this moment, the other party nodded at him.

nJiang Lan immediately nodded in return.

nThis was a senior brother, so he naturally would not be rude.

nEspecially when the other party took the initiative to greet him.

nHowever, the other party didn’t say anything.

nJiang Lan naturally didn’t say anything either.

nIt was not suitable to talk while standing on the lake as it was easy to get distracted.

nAs for why he couldn’t sense the man earlier with his cultivation level, it must have been due to the Peaceful Void Lake.

nAfter that, Jiang Lan didn’t care about anything else. He realized that it was very difficult to fight here.

nIt was as if he could only stand on the surface of the water if he was calm.

nIf he wanted to fight with others, he had to maintain a calm heart.

nIt wasn’t that easy.

nPerhaps it was fine if he had a pure fighting spirit.

nBut Jiang Lan felt that it was very difficult for him to do so.

nHowever, he did not know if the person opposite him could do it.

nHe’ll just take it as he could.

nHe just needed to be in peak condition to prevent any accidents.

nJiang Lan didn’t have any intention to harm others, but he was always on guard.

nGu Qi glanced at Jiang Lan and didn’t pay further attention.

nHe was a disciple of the First Summit, a prodigy of this generation. For him to be able to come here, there had to be something special about him.

nHis cultivation level was not high, but it didn’t mean anything when they were still young.

nExcept…

nGu Qi did not intend to fall behind the other party.

nHe fell into the water earlier on and started from the top again after resting.

nNow that there were people here, he only hoped that they would vie for it against him.

nOr rather, they would make it something worth fighting for.

nHe had taken a more remote path and was someone who fought to compete.

nIt was very difficult for people to attack others here, but it was very easy for him.

nHowever, he would not attack. He would only compete.

nHe was competitive.

nHe was very pure.

n“I look forward to you igniting my fighting spirit.”

nGu Qi muttered to himself.

nThen, he continued to walk forward.

nOnly if the other party could keep up with him, would he be able to ignite his fighting spirit.

nIf he couldn’t keep up, he would still compete with him.

nThis was technically a more advanced realm. However, with his current cultivation, it was very difficult for him to enter this realm.

nJiang Lan didn’t mind that the other party had moved.

nIt was better for him if no one was around.

nIt was fine to walk behind others. At least he felt more at ease.

nThen, Jiang Lan looked at the water surface and at his blurry reflection in the water. He walked forward.

nThis seemed to be targeting his Essence Soul.

nPerhaps it could help him advance better.

n…

nWhen Jiang Lan was sent into the Peaceful Void Lake, some of the disciples outside were very curious as to when Jiang Lan would come out.

n“I remember that he would be sent out once he fell to the bottom of the lake, right? Do you think that junior brother would come out in a sorry state?”

n“Who knows? You’ll know after watching for a while. Those who enter for the first time usually don’t perform well.”

n“I don’t think that’s possible. It’s true that the junior brother of the Ninth Summit has average talent.

nHowever, don’t forget one thing. He is a disciple of the Ninth Summit.”

n“Aren’t the disciples of the Ninth Summit more rich in resources?”

nA disciple who had recently joined Kunlun asked curiously.

nTo others, Jiang Lan was their junior brother, but to these new disciples, Jiang Lan was their senior brother.

nHowever, there were very few disciples who could come to the Peaceful Void Lake.

nTherefore, the disciples Jiang Lan saw were mostly his senior brothers.

nUnknowingly, Jiang Lan’s cultivation on the surface had actually surpassed many senior brothers and sisters.

nThis was because he had gathered all the resources of the Ninth Summit.

nAs the only disciple of the Ninth Summit, his treatment far surpassed that of others.

nThis included the geniuses from the other peaks.

nAs long as his Master had it, Jiang Lan would have whatever that could help him.

nThis was why many people felt that Jiang Lan’s cultivation level was due to the accumulation of these resources.

nA cultivation from such accumulation was unstable. Therefore, they believed it was difficult for him to go far.

n“No, since this junior brother can stay on the Ninth Summit for so long, his temperament is definitely good.

nAt least he’s stronger than us.

nTherefore, he has an advantage on the Peaceful Void Lake.”

n“But he’s just a Foundation Establishment disciple after all. This is the first time he’s in the Peaceful Void Lake. If you aren’t mentally prepared, it’s very easy for you to fall to the bottom of the lake.

nIt was especially so for this junior brother of the Ninth Summit. He rarely came out of seclusion and had never seen the world.

nHe’s more likely to fall to the bottom of the lake in an instant.”

n“Let’s just watch and we’ll see. I feel that even if you don’t fall to the bottom of the lake, you will still be greatly affected.

nAfter being worn down a few times, you will have to come out to recuperate.”

nThe Ancient Wine Daoist drank his wine as he listened to their discussions.

nActually, Mo Zhengdong wanted him to take special care of Jiang Lan so that he could walk further and see more clearly.

nWith his help, Jiang Lan could indeed walk further than before.

nBut he decided not to help.

nHe sent him straight to the center of the ninth location on the lake.

nSince he had given him special treatment, it could not be considered that he didn’t do anything.

nHowever, he didn’t know how Jiang Lan would perform.

nHe was also looking forward to it.

n“If he really falls to the bottom of the lake because he hasn’t seen the world, I can just continue to give him the privilege of the ninth location.”

nThe Ancient Wine Daoist muttered to himself.

nThis wine was too fragrant.

nHe could not afford it and could not refuse.

nMo Zhengdong was really willing to do this for his disciple.

nThat seemed about right. After all, he was the only personal disciple he had accepted after so many years.
