Chapter 1978: Chapter 1976: Fishing in Troubled Waters

After some thought, Peter Brown simply took off the certification he was wearing and put it into his Elixir Sea. Having done that, Peter Brown altered his appearance once again through disguise.

After completing that, Peter Brown headed toward the Fourth Layer.

As he walked, Peter Brown had a thought. The certification had a certain sensing ability, so why didn’t he use it to detect others? As long as he sensed someone, he could just collect it.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt this was feasible.

With that in mind, Peter Brown put his certification back on and continued walking while sensing his surroundings.

Peter Brown did not plan to go too deep too quickly. As long as he sensed someone, his plan was to ambush and seize what he could.

Now, some people had gained their certification and left, but many others, especially those from the Flame Star Region, had not. They held many certifications, and they were Peter Brown’s targets.

Sure enough, after walking for 2 hours, he felt a response up ahead.

The moment Peter Brown felt the response, he quickly stored his certification in the Elixir Sea and swiftly set up a formation to hide in.

Clearly, it was a team from the Flame Star Region, using the sensing capability of the certifications to search for others who held them.

When Peter sensed them, they, of course, detected the presence of someone with certification in his direction, and they all rushed toward where Peter was.

Using the sensing method, they had indeed made quite the harvest, having killed many people who had obtained certifications over the years. They had also gained Holy Grass and similar treasures. This was a small team of twenty people with a total of fifteen certifications. After getting five more, they could go to the academy together.

Discovering that there was a certification in Peter’s location, twenty people surged forward, all rushing over. They were all Hundred-Eight Star Rank experts and feared no one. As long as they encountered someone with certification, their only response was to attack and seize it.

But when they arrived, they found not only had the certification signal disappeared, but there was also no one to be seen.

"How strange!"

Everyone looked around in confusion, finding nothing.

Peter Brown had not expected so many people to arrive so suddenly. But seeing that they had fifteen certifications, he began to get excited.

Peter already had eleven certifications aside from his own. If he could take theirs, that would make twenty-six in total. With these twenty-six certifications, Peter could leave and return home.

He had to get them!

After observing these individuals, Peter realized they were all Hundred-Eight Star Rank and not particularly strong. So, using the Heaven-Exploding Thunder, he could probably kill them.

Peter was no longer impulsive; he preferred a more effortless combat approach over direct engagement.

After assessing their cultivation levels, Peter devised his own battle strategy.

Then, Peter released a puppet, giving it ten Heaven-Exploding Thunders powered by a Hundred-Twenty Star Rank energy.

To be careful, Peter also cast an Invisibility Talisman on the puppet.

The puppet stealthily emerged from the formation.

With Peter’s command, the puppet scattered the Heaven-Exploding Thunders among these people.

The thunderous blasts rang out. The twenty individuals had no idea an enemy lay in front of them, and without any defense, the ten thunders exploded, knocking the puppet down too. But the Flame Star Region personnel fared worse. Over ten of them fell immediately, and the remaining, in shock, huddled together in defense.

At that moment, Peter’s two Hundred-Star Rank powered Heaven-Exploding Thunder was already unleashed.

With the explosion of the thunder, the remaining five who could still stand also fell.

Now, it was Peter’s turn. Already armed with a defense talisman to protect himself, he charged in, delivering a punch to anyone still breathing.

After a series of punches, no one was left alive.

Upon inspecting the puppet, Peter found that even with the defense talisman’s protection, the puppet was severely damaged and would need to be refined anew.

Nevertheless, looking at the people collapsed on the ground, Peter’s heart filled with satisfaction; his strength was indeed vast—Hundred-Eight Star Rank individuals were no longer his match.

The certifications were undamaged. Peter collected them all and sent them into the Elixir Sea. With a wave of his hand, he also collected all the undamaged rings—eighteen in total.

There was no need to stay here any longer.

Peter was already satisfied with his achievements here. His haul was the greatest, and it was time to return.

After piling the corpses, Peter cast a Fire talisman, incinerating the bodies, before dashing towards the outskirts of the Purple Origin Mountain Range.

Peter had lost the desire to ponder what else lay within the mountains, nor did he care to investigate further. All he wanted now was to settle his affairs back home, then hurry to the academy. He had no idea how far away the academy was or what dangers awaited him.

While on his way, Peter inspected the contents of the rings.

To his surprise, these people had garnered a vast trove of Holy Grass and Holy Fruits, though it was unclear how many they had robbed.

In the past, Peter would have been overjoyed at so many Holy Grasses and Fruits, but now he understood that in the realm of true cultivation, these were quite ordinary and not particularly incredible treasures.

These items were of no use to Peter anymore. However, he realized that to the average cultivator, the Holy Grass and similar items were treasures, capable of significantly enhancing their cultivation.

Thinking of returning and assessing how many people remained loyal to him, he decided that all who were loyal would have their cultivations upgraded. Peter even planned to distribute the certifications among them.
