Chapter 469 - 422: Picked Up a Spiritual Object for Free [Seeking Monthly Ticket]_2
But the two were completely different.
Due to the nature of their cultivation environment, many monks of the Profound Sect Orthodox School liked having a trick or two up their sleeves. It wasn’t surprising to see Infant Gods posing as Pinnacle True Men and mingling with amateurs.
On the contrary, the disciples of Devil Gate were fond of pretending to have far greater power than they truly possessed, owing to their harsh cultivation conditions. In the true ’eat-or-be-eaten’ world of the Devil Gate, pretending to be weak only invites more danger - you’re likely to end up as dinner!
Both the orthodox and demon sects preferred not to reveal their true cultivation levels, but the difference in their environments directly influenced their behavior.
This massive discrepancy made it difficult to distinguish the real from the unreal.
It once caused a hilarious incident in history where two Infant Gods were trading, but ended up fighting due to some unexpected developments. Only then did they realize that one of them was a Pinnacle True Man posing as an Infant God, while the other was a Primordial Spirit pretending to be an Infant God.
Of course, such extreme situations were rare, because it wasn’t easy for a Pinnacle True Man to fool a Great Cultivator who was a Primordial Spirit by pretending to be an Infant God.
However, due to these messy historical circumstances and various typical cases, when Devil Cultivators dealt with monks from the Profound Sect Orthodox School, they weren’t entirely sure of each other.
Everyone was scared that the other party might be a Big Shot!
And everyone hoped that the other party was a fake!
They tread carefully, hoping they could trick the other side into giving up their good stuff for virtually nothing.
