Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 3771: Outcome a Mystery

When he said that, everyone held their breaths and turned their gazes towards Immortal Exalt Tan Yu.

Immortal Exalt Tan Yu narrowed his eyes slightly. As soon as he thought of the fates of the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master, he blanked out momentarily. Even now, all of it felt surreal.

“Let’s not talk about this for now. Basically all of the Immortal Monarchs and Immortal Emperors from the Void-perceiving sect have perished. They’re at their weakest. He Luo, organise a group of people and kill your way over to the Void-perceiving sect immediately.” Immortal Exalt Tan Yu ordered.

“Yes, city lord!” Vice city lord He Luo immediately accepted the order.

Shortly afterwards, he organised a group of experts from the eight clans that immediately made their way to the Void-perceiving sect.

The remaining experts remained where they were. Questions filled all of their heads. The experts from the eight clans were already attacking the Void-perceiving sect’s den, so what exactly had happened to the Void-perceiving Ancestor? Why had he still not appeared?

However, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu clearly had no plans on explaining this. He clutched the captured Energy-devouring Furnace in his hand and stared at the high quality god artifact. He gradually became stern.

The Energy-gathering Furnace belonged to the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment. Now that it had ended up in his hands, it was without a doubt a source of trouble.

He would never have the courage to take it for himself. If the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment decided to investigate the matter, the Immortal Rising City would not be able to bear the consequences.

However, he had his qualms about trying to return it. After all, the Energy-devouring Furnace had been lent to the Void-perceiving sect by the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment, and the holy maiden of the Void-perceiving sect had been married to a disciple of extraordinary status in the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Union. If the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Union asked him about the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Void-perceiving sect, how was he supposed to answer?

“City lord, how do we handle the Energy-devouring Furnace?” Vice city lord Qiu Wanqian asked. His voice was rather stern, clearly aware that this was difficult to deal with. If they were not careful, it would lead to tremendous problems.

Immortal Exalt Tan Yu did not answer him. He clutched the Energy-devouring Furnace and stood still in silence for a very long time. In the end, he turned around and said, “Let’s head back for now!”

The protective formation around the Immortal Rising City gradually dissipated. By now, the terrifying gloom that had enveloped the city for half a month finally dispersed completely.

The Immortal Rising City gradually recovered its past prosperity. The various shops that had retreated in the outer city all returned.

Even some of the cultivators and merchants who had left to seek refuge elsewhere returned to their usual residings.

However, the disturbance created by the Void-perceiving sect attacking the Immortal Rising City for the Skyscraping Sword Scripture gradually spread through the area. Not only was it possible to hear discussions about it throughout the Immortal Rising City, but the impact of this matter even spread across the entire Hall Brilliance Heaven like wildfire.

For a moment, the Immortal Rising City became the hottest topic of conversation on the Hall Brilliance Heaven.

After all, both the Void-perceiving sect and the Immortal Rising City were peak organisations that stood at the apex of the world.

“It’s said that the Void-perceiving sect has been completely destroyed. Vice city lord He Luo led experts of the eight organisations to unleash a bloodbath on the Void-perceiving sect. All of the Void-perceiving sect’s resources have ended up in the Immortal Rising City’s hands.”

“And the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master. It’s said that they’ve been imprisoned in an unknown place by the city lord of the Immortal Rising City by some ultimate secret technique.”

“A bunch of nonsense. The city lord of the Immortal Rising City is heavily injured. When it comes to individual battles, he doesn’t even come close to the Void-perceiving Ancestor or the Wukun Master. How is he supposed to imprison two Immortal Exalts at the same time for so long? The city lord of the Immortal Rising City clearly found powerful helpers.”

“There has not been any more news regarding the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master on the Hall Brilliance Heaven anymore. Does anyone know where these two experts are exactly?”

Before they knew it, many cultivators on the Hall Brilliance Heaven began to think of the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master’s fates. Even the peak organisations that stood on the Hall Brilliance Heaven began to make guesses about their ultimate fates.

“The Daluo Sword, the Myriad Sword Technique, and the Linear Lightning Release were all immortal techniques that I used in the past. These immortal techniques are perfect for your cultivation right now. You have to study them carefully and grasp them quickly, do you understand?”

“Yes, master! I will definitely do my best to comprehend them! I won’t disappoint you, master!”

In a serene courtyard within the inner city of the Immortal Rising City, Jian Chen guided Jing Mumu on matters regarding cultivation. He explained each detail with great patience.

Jian Chen placed particularly high hopes on his first disciple, but he also doted on her very much.

The Daluo Sword, the Myriad Sword Technique, and the Linear Lightning Release had all been taught to him by the sword spirits in the past. They also served as basic immortal techniques practised by the disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.

However, throughout the vast Immortals’ World, the various sects all had similar techniques passed down through them. Coupled with the fact that many of the sect’s records were lost since the decline of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, many of their abilities and secret techniques had been spread publicly, even taken and submitted to auctions.

As a result, basic immortal techniques like the Daluo Sword were not enough for people to connect them to the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.

Of course, that was as long as it did not involve some core legacies!

However, in the present Immortals’ World, even if someone actually exposed some core legacies, they would not necessarily be from the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.

At this moment, Jing Feng arrived by Jian Chen’s side. He bowed and clasped his hand. “Senior, three cultivators have arrived outside. They say they’re here to see you. Forgive me for my lack of insight, but I am unable to see through their exact cultivation.”

“Mumu, cultivate here in peace. I’ll be right back.” Jian Chen instructed Jing Mumu first before telling Jing Feng, “Invite the guests to the main hall.”

“Yes, senior!” Jing Feng backed away immediately.

Then Jian Chen left and made his way to the main hall.

Very soon, Jing Feng led the three immortals to the main hall. After bowing to Jian Chen, he backed away in an extremely self-conscious manner.

Jian Chen waved his hand, and the doors to the main hall slammed shut. With a smile on his face, he clasped his fist. “Please forgive me for failing to welcome you from afar, city lord!”

The three of them were the city lord, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu, as well as the two vice city lords, Qiu Wanqian and He Luo.

Immortal Exalt Tan Yu was composed, but the two vice city lords were relatively reserved.

Clearly, they had already learnt about what had happened ten million kilometres away in the barren mountains from Immortal Exalt Tan Yu.

The truth left the two vice city lords who were also Immortal Emperors very shocked. As a result, when they faced Jian Chen, they were unable to maintain their usual composure.

“How can you say that, fellow Yang Yutian? If it weren’t for your assistance, not only would the Immortal Rising City be destroyed, but my fate, as well as my brothers’ fates, would be completely unknown right now. You’ve shown our Immortal Rising City such great kindness, so how could I ask you to personally come out and receive us?” Immortal Exalt Tan Yu bowed deeply towards Jian Chen. “I hope my sudden visit hasn’t disturbed you.”

The two vice city lords standing behind Immortal Exalt Tan Yu bowed towards Jian Chen as well. Their faces were filled with respect and deep gratitude.

“You’re not exactly disturbing me. Please take a seat!” Jian Chen smiled and made an inviting gesture to the three of them.

Shortly afterwards, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu brought the two vice city lords to sit down in front of Jian Chen. They expressed their deep gratitude once again before taking out a Space Ring and pushing it over to Jian Chen gently. “It’s all thanks to your assistance that we managed to upheave the Void-perceiving sect so easily. We’ve already sorted through all of the resources from the Void-perceiving sect. We’re hoping that you could accept this portion.”

“I am aware that these puny resources must mean nothing to you given your identity, but this is my token of appreciation.”
