Seven Deadly Sins System-Chapter 207: Heartless Peak

Elder Fang brought Chu Wuyao with him, and before long, the two of them had traveled through the entire Core Area, arriving at a remote place in the southeast area.

Surprisingly, although the Core Area was located at the Original Mountain, the land was not steep but even, influenced by the large formation that covered it.

"Are you sure you want to pick this place?", Elder Fang asked one last time, and after he received Chu Wuyao’s approval, he flew into the sky.

Then, he stretched out his right hand, seemingly grasping for something.

The Mana inside his body rioted and his aura surged, while a strange illusory field formed around him and spread everywhere.

As the land below was covered by this field, it began changing.

Rock, sand, and soil appeared seemingly out of nowhere and were stacked on top of each other as if there was an invisible hand that was controlling them.

These materials quickly blended together, and before long, a large mountain had been formed in what was originally a completely empty land.

Seeing this large mountain appear, Chu Wuyao was almost unable to hide her surprise.

Especially when she noticed the casual look on Elder Fang’s face and the calm, steady aura of his body, she understood that the creation of this mountain should have been very easy for him, and didn’t have any impact on him.

To be honest, it was the first time that Chu Wuyao witnessed such power.

In fact, although she had met many powerful people during her cultivation journey, she had only seen cultivators and practitioners destroy things and had never seen them create anything.

This wasn’t surprising, as destroying something was easy while creating the same thing was very difficult.

For example, even though she could destroy the mountain in front of her easily, Chu Wuyao knew very well that it would take her some time to transfer the materials to build it.

Most importantly, Chu Wuyao noticed that Elder Fang didn’t transfer the materials that made up the mountain from other places nor from his space ring, but instead created them out of nothing.

Elder Fang didn’t seem to notice Chu Wuyao’s surprise or to be more accurate, this was the effect that he wanted.

Seeing her like this, a smug expression appeared on his face, before he continued.

His ordinary-looking body stood silently in the sky, and under the control of his field, many buildings appeared all over the mountain below.

Before long, a small city in a spiral shape had been formed.

"Okay. It’s done.", Elder Fang smiled casually, but if anyone were to look behind his back, they would discover that his hands were trembling.

Chu Wuyao was about to speak up to thank him, but before she could do so, Elder Fang’s figure had disappeared.

"I know that you must be very busy, so I won’t keep you waiting any longer. You can do your thing.", his voice echoed in Chu Wuyao’s ears.

Left alone, Chu Wuyao looked at the golden light in the distance, before turning her head to look at the newly-built mountain.

"From now on, this mountain will be my base in this world.", she thought secretly, and recalling the peaks of the other true disciples she had seen on the way, she controlled her Mana, pulling a large stone out of the ground and placing it at the bottom of the mountain.

Then, she stretched out her hand and her index finger brushed against the surface of the stone as if it were a paintbrush.

Many different names floated in Chu Wuyao’s mind, such as "Holy Peak", "Devil Peak", or "Original Desire Peak".

But in the end, she chose what she thought was a more suitable name.

"Heartless Peak.", Chu Wuyao whispered and she wrote the words "Heartless Peak" on the stone in front of her.

Subconsciously, she infused some of her power into the words as she wrote them, causing them to exude a cold, ruthless, and murderous aura.

Chu Wuyao nodded her head in satisfaction, but she knew that she wasn’t finished just yet.

As her future "base" in this world, the Heartless Peak could not remain undefended.

Thinking of this, her mind entered her space ring, and the next moment, many swords appeared and floated beside her.

These swords were Magic Weapons that she had accumulated throughout her cultivation journey, and most of them were the kind "donation" of Jiang Chen.

The majority of these swords were Middle-Grade and High-Grade Spiritual Weapons, but there were also a few among them that had entered the ranks of Divine Weapons and possessed traces of spirituality.

After she established a connection with these Magic Weapons, Chu Wuyao waved her hand, and under her control, the swords separated and flew away, piercing through the air at a high speed.

In the blink of an eye, most of these swords landed at various points at the bottom of the mountain, while the most powerful among them, the Divine Weapons, landed at on top of the mountain.

The next second, an invisible web seemed to appear between reality and illusion, but it quickly disappeared.

"Although this formation is not very strong and it can’t resist Awakening Realm cultivators, it’s strong enough to defend for a few seconds and buy me the time to react."

"Most importantly, it can shield the Heartless Peak from the peeping of other cultivators."

It was impossible for Chu Wuyao to be completely satisfied with just these functions, but it was the best formation she could arrange at the moment.

The only thing she could do was to note it down and try to watch out for more powerful formations in the future.

Soon, after she arranged a few more things, walked to the peak of the mountain and waved her right hand.

The next moment, a space crack formed in front of her, while two lights, one red and one white flew out of her space ring.

A small black creature jumped out of the space crack and landed on the ground with supreme accuracy, while the two lights turned into Li Ruoshi and Yue Zhilan respectively.

Compared to before, both Cthulhu and Yue Zhilan had undergone massive changes.

In particular, Yue Zhilan’s cultivation had improved a lot, and she now had strength equivalent to a Late Stage of the Shackles Realm cultivator.

Granted, this improvement didn’t come out of nowhere but was supported by the huge amount of resources that Chu Wuyao had obtained during her stay in the Inheritance World.

On the other hand, although Cthulhu’s strength had also improved, its improvement seemingly lagged behind Yue Zhilan and Li Ruoshi.

However, Chu Wuyao had a hunch that this little cat was hiding something and that its real power was many times higher than its apparent strength.

Although she had given many resources and treasures to Yue Zhilan and Li Ruoshi, she knew that Cthulhu would return to the Devil World from time to time and would have its own adventures and opportunities.

As a massive world that was at least as strong as the Cultivation World, the Devil World didn’t lack resources at all!

Knowing this, Chu Wuyao didn’t believe that Cthulhu was as weak as it seemed to be.

While she was sizing them up and taking stock of their progress, a Magic Weapon, a Devil, and a strange monster looked around them with curiosity.

Seeing this, Chu Wuyao suppressed her thoughts and pointed at each of them, using her mind as a means to communicate and let them know their current situation.

Soon, the three people understood.

"Master, are we finally going to conquer this mortal world and spread your majesty?", Cthulhu couldn’t help but ask, while some formed appeared in its golden eyes.

"Finally, finally. The Master’s most faithful servant can assist Master in expanding her Immortal Kingdom.", it muttered in a low, almost inaudible voice.

Chu Wuyao heard its mutterings and was about to "educate" it, but before she could do so, she noticed that a red light flashed in Li Ruoshi’s eyes.

"That’s right, that’s right! We should purify this filthy world! We should turn this world into our nourishment.", she nodded in agreement and her thoughts seemed to resonate with the Blood Flag below, causing its aura to surge.

Hearing this, Chu Wuyao took back what it was about to say and stared at Li Ruoshi with shock in her eyes.

She had been used to Cthulhu’s weird way of thinking and didn’t take it too seriously, but so far, she had never seen Li Ruoshi act like this before.

Wasn’t Li Ruoshi supposed to be an indifferent, calm, and steady person?

How could she turn out like this?

"Is it possible that it’s the result of my influence?", she thought but she immediately shook her head, denying that idea.

"Impossible! It should be the side effects of turning into a Magic Weapon.", she convinced herself.

No matter what the reason behind this change was, however, Chu Wuyao felt that she should some time educating Cthulhu and Li Ruoshi every day, to avoid bringing her trouble in the future.

"Fortunately, there is still a subordinate who I can place my trust.", she thought, as she turned her head and looked at the silent Yue Zhilan, who was staring at her intently.

"Good, very good.", Chu Wuyao couldn’t help but nod her head, and her eyes filled with appreciation.

She decided that she would spend more time and resources on Yue Zhilan, cultivating her to become her right-hand woman.

With that in mind, she recalled her previous plans and opened her mouth to speak:

"Go to the Outer and Inner Areas and find some disciples who are willing to enter the Heartless Peak."

"Although you should take their cultivation into account, the thing that you should care the most about is their character."

"If it’s needed, you can promise them a few benefits.", she ordered, and she paused for a brief second before she continued:

"You can ask these people first.", Chu Wuyao said and pointed at Yue Zhilan.

The next second, a list of people appeared in Yue Zhilan’s mind, containing their names, appearances, and some of their information.

Going through this list, Yue Zhilan’s eyes shone with a strange light as she nodded her head.

"Don’t worry senior sister Chu, I’ll make sure to complete your orders.", she said and leaned forward slightly, before patted her proud chest, causing it to bounce, seemingly unintentionally.

Yue Zhilan originally expected that her movements would please Chu Wuyao, but Chu Wuyao didn’t seem to notice her actions.

Regardless, although she failed to attract her attention, Yue Zhilan didn’t become embarrassed and continued as if nothing happened.

After she obtained permission to enter and exit the Core Area, she turned into a black light and flew away.

Chu Wuyao waited for her figure to disappear, before turning to Li Ruoshi and Cthulhu.

"I’ll be going into seclusion. Don’t disturb me unless necessary.", she ordered, before flashing away.
