On The Path Of Cultivation To Become God

Today, Lian Feng went to Crimson Pill Peak to receive the pill he had ordered a month ago and was eager to get his hands on it.

As he made his way into the Pill Pavilion, he couldn't help but notice a commotion from a distance.

Curious, Lian Feng chose to walk toward the crowd of disciples gathered inside the hall.

Following that, he noticed the girl who was arguing with Chen Tian. Seeing her face, it was clear that she was upset.

Lian Feng's eyes lit up with recognition as he realized who she was: Mei Lin, another one of the beauties inside the sect. She wasn't at the level of Yin Yun, but she was still well known inside the sect, even among Inner Disciples, since they come here to buy pills.

So, Mei Lin had plenty of connections within the sect.

'Heh, what a good chance to step in and calm things down. Maybe I can earn the favor of the beauty,' Lian Feng thought to himself as he made his way toward them.

Lian Feng pushed his way through the crowd, making his way towards Chen Tian and Mei Lin.

As he got closer, he could hear her voice rising in frustration and knew the reason she was angry.

'Heh, another fool wants to see the Peak Master of Pill Peak. Hahaha, these idiots never learn. But that's great for me since it helps boost my reputation,' Lian Feng thought with a smirk as he approached Mei Lin.

He knew he had to step in before Mei Lin called for the discipline hall.

How could he let this opportunity slip away?

When he finally reached them, he raised his voice slightly and asked, "What's the commotion all about here?!"

The girl and other onlookers turned toward Lian Feng. His smile widened inwardly after hearing the disciples talk about him.

'Hehe, it looks like I have everyone's attention now,'

Lian Feng glanced at Chen Tian with disdain before turning his attention back to the girl.

His expression changed, and a smile slowly spread across his lips.

"Excuse me,

junior sister," he said in a charming tone, "I couldn't help but notice that trash bothering you. Would you like me to help you get rid of him?"

"Ah, it's okay, Senior Brother Lian, you don't have to bother with such a thing; I will call for the discipline hall to take care of this matter," replied the girl with a grateful smile.

Her face softened as she spoke with Lian Feng, using a more respectful and formal tone.

There was a big difference when she talked with Chen Tian earlier.

"No way, how could I leave you to deal with this alone? As a Senior, it is my duty to help and assist my junior sister," Lian Feng insisted, his eyes showing genuine concern.

"Please allow me to handle this situation for you." The girl's expression turned from grateful to touched.

'Ah, Senior Lian Feng is truly a kind and caring person,' Mei Lin thought to herself.

She genuinely appreciated her Senior's help, but she still had to refuse since this was a problem with The Pill Pavilion, and it was her job to deal with such problems.

So she couldn't let her Senior Brother take care of it for her.

"Thank you, Senior Lian Feng. I truly appreciate your help, but—"

"Let me handle this, junior sister." Lian Feng insisted, his tone firm but gentle.

"After I deal with this, how about you accompany me for a meal as a thank you?"

Before Mei Lin could continue speaking, Lian Feng stepped in front of her, where Chen Tian had been standing the whole time.

"Hey, trash, scram before I make you regret coming here," Lian Feng said disdainfully, his eyes giving the impression of looking at a piece of worthless trash.

Chen Tian's face was as if someone were watching a ridiculous play unfold before him, his expression shifting from confusion to amusement.

'Is this the young master playing a game of intimidation?' he thought to himself.

After all these years on Earth, how could Chen Tian not have already read the popular cultivation novels?

He had read so many novels and manga on such themes that he was already familiar with what was happening in front of him.

These types of arrogant young masters were actually real.

At first, when he read a novel and encountered a character like this, he didn't believe such individuals existed in the real cultivation world.

But as the author continued mocking the cultivation world and making the Young Master act more arrogant, the more Chen Tian was in disbelief.

Why, you ask?

He felt very familiar with the behavior and attitude of these arrogant young masters.

In the end, Chen Tian had no choice but to accept that these characters did exist in the real cultivation world, and he couldn't deny the similarities he saw between the fictional young master and some of the cultivators he had encountered in his own experiences.

Now, in the same situation as in the novel, Chen Tian couldn't help but chuckle.

A smile crept on his face as he thought about how accurate the author's portrayal of these arrogant young masters truly was.

"You!"

"You're going to regret this!" Lian Feng said, his irritated voice snapping Chen Tian out of his thoughts.

Chen Tian tilted his head to see Lian Feng, looking at him as if he were his mortal enemy.

When Lian Feng asked him to scram, Chen Tian simply smirked and didn't reply, which was a blow to Lian Feng's pride.

How dare a mere outer disciple like Chen Tian make fun of him, a prominent outer disciple of the sect?

With his Foundation Establishment cultivation, it wasn't hard for him to check Chen Tian's cultivation realm, which was only at the 3rd stage Qi refinement Realm.

"Boom"

His cultivation base was so much higher than Chen Tian's that it was like comparing a mountain to a molehill.

No Outer Disciple under the rank of 100 dared to challenge Lian Feng's authority within the sect, and Chen Tian would soon learn this lesson.

Lian Feng could easily crush him with just a flick of his finger, and he would make sure that Chen Tian regretted ever crossing paths with him.

As he stared down at Chen Tian with a cold expression, Lian Feng's eyes glinted with superiority as he released some pressure from his cultivation base, causing everyone around to feel a wave of energy that made them instinctively take a step back.

He wanted to let Chen Tian feel the difference in power between them.

Chen Tian, however, stood there like nothing could shake him.

"S-Senior Brother Feng, y—you should know better than to use your cultivation base on a fellow disciple," Mei Lin stammered, her voice filled with worry since if something happened here, she would be responsible for reporting it to their Peak Master.

Of course, Lian Feng knew that he wasn't allowed to attack his fellow disciple, or he would be punished, which is why he only intimidated Chen Tian with his aura.

With his attitude, he would have already slapped Chen Tian across the face, but he restrained himself, knowing the consequences of breaking the rules.

"Junior Sister Mei, stay out of this," Lian Feng replied coldly, his gaze still fixed on Chen Tian.

"You better listen to her since I don't know you, and I hate when someone tries to intimidate me. I suggest you back off," Chen Tian stated calmly, his eyes meeting Lian Feng's.

Chen Tian wasn't angry; for him, Lian Feng was just a kid trying to act tough. His years in the Nine Heavens weren't for nothing, and he had learned to keep his cool in tense situations like this, and rarely would he get enraged.

"Haha, since when did a nobody like you start giving me orders?" Lian Feng sneered, his disdain evident in his voice.

But Chen Tian remained unfazed.

Which made Lian Feng frown even more.

'Why isn't he affected by my aura? I will increase it then,' Lian Feng thought to himself, trying to exude even more menacing energy.

Making the weaker disciples and Mei Lin, who was only a Meridian Opening Realm cultivator, have difficulty standing upright under the pressure.

But Chen Tian simply raised an eyebrow, unimpressed.

"You can try all you want, but it won't work on me," Chen Tian said confidently. Lian Feng's frown deepened.

"What's your name?"

"Why do you ask for my name? Do you want to challenge me to a duel or something?" Chen Tian replied, his steely gaze never wavering.

"You!" Lian Feng was pissed.

"You have some guts, I'll give you that. Fine, tell me your name, and I will remember it."

"Chen Tian," he answered simply, not intimidated by Lian Feng.

Lian Feng's expression turned serious for a moment before he let out a cold laugh.

"Chen Tian, huh? I'll remember that. You've just made a powerful enemy today. Let's see how long you can last in the sect with me as your enemy."

Chen Tian just shrugged, not the least bit concerned about Lian Feng's threats.

Lian Feng was taken aback by Chen Tian's confidence.

It only worsened Lian Feng's reputation within the sect as word spread about how he was mocked by a freshman like Chen Tian.

Most disciples would cower in fear at the thought of making an enemy of someone as powerful as him, but Chen Tian stood his ground.

Realizing he couldn't intimidate Chen Tian, Lian Feng decided to change tactics.

"Very well. Since you're so confident." Lian Feng had a cunning glint in his eye.

He took out his disciple token from his storage ring, flashing it in front of Chen Tian's face.

"W-Wait, is he going—"

"I believe so, but there is no way for that guy to accept it!"

Mei Lin, who had been watching the exchange with growing concern, finally spoke up.

"Please, Senior Brother, there's no need for this." Mei Lin behind Lian Feng said, her voice full of concern.

Lian Feng didn't stop and continued to hold out the disciple token towards Chen Tian.

"Then let's make this official. I, Lian Feng, challenge you, Chen Tian, to a duel," he declared, his eyes sharp with scorn.

The moment these words came out, the token in his hand shone brightly, almost as if confirming the challenge.

Chen Tian's eyes slightly rose in surprise as he reached out to take the token, feeling a surge of curiosity.

His token started glowing as well, matching the intensity of Lian Feng's.

Mei Lin and the other watched with deep breath.
