Chaotic Sword God

“Not a problem!” Jian Chen was unconcerned. He pointed at the field of flourishing heavenly resources in front of him and said, “Since you’re assisting me, I’m not going to tend to them personally.”

“Just leave it to me!” Lan Caidie had no complaints. She retrieved a large number of jade boxes from her Space Ring and rushed into the field of heavenly resources, gathering them rapidly.

Jian Chen stood outside the medicinal garden and watched as Lan Caidie busied about. He could not help but say, “Vice cult leader Lan, you’re a Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt. You possess an extremely honourable status, yet I’m making you handle these miscellaneous matters right now. Do you really have no complaints? Is the Three Lives Reincarnation Fruit really that tempting?”

When she heard that, Lan Caidie paused. After a moment of silence, she said hoarsely, “Just a Three Lives Reincarnation Fruit obviously is not enough for me to bend over backwards like this. If I wanted the fruit, I can come up with many different ways to get my hands on it. I made this choice entirely due to senior heavenly emperor.”

“Senior heavenly emperor has shown tremendous kindness to our Ghost Immortal cult. The kindness he’s shown is so great that our Ghost Immortal cult will probably never have the opportunity to repay him. Since you are so heavily favoured by senior heavenly emperor, assisting you is equivalent to helping senior heavenly emperor with his burden,” said Lan Caidie. When she recalled Xing Caidie’s words again, she entered a daze.

“You better pray he’s still alive. If he were to die, even if I spare you, my father will never spare you. As for my mother, she’ll personally carve you to pieces…”

Xing Caijian’s words echoed through Lan Caidie’s head like a curse. The waves it set off inside her could only be described as torrential.

“Heavenly emperor?” Jian Chen wondered to himself. He obviously knew who the heavenly emperor that Lan Caidie was referring to was. That had to be the Chaotic Star Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Star Palace.

However, he was extremely curious about what Xing Caijian had said to Lan Caidie that made her believe the Chaotic Star Heavenly Emperor favoured him so much.

After all, he had never even seen the Chaotic Star Heavenly Emperor who stood at the apex of the world.

Jian Chen left the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt and Lan Caidie to gather the God Tier heavenly resources in the medicinal garden. However, he did not idle around either. He stood outside the medicinal garden and used the secret technique from the Skyscraping Sword Venerable to observe the surrounding area. Nothing could escape his senses.

However, after picking all the heavenly resources, they had run out of jade boxes as well. There were extremely stringent requirements for preserving these God Tier heavenly resources. They could only be preserved over long periods of time through specially-made jade boxes. Otherwise, their efficacy would weaken with time.

At a time like this, the several hundred thousand disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens in the Primeval Divine Hall came into use. Under the arrangements of elder Nong, the disciples all stopped cultivating and took part in the production of jade boxes, providing Jian Chen with a steady supply of containers for various God Tier heavenly resources.

After collecting all the heavenly resources in the medicinal garden, Jian Chen sent the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt back inside the Primeval Divine Hall to hide while he and Lan Caidie proceeded to the next medicinal garden.

The medicinal gardens in the Skyscraping World constantly decreased. By now, all of the cultivators in the Skyscraping World could clearly sense that the thinned-out spiritual Qi was gradually recovering.

Even though it was still quite far away from its original density, this was still a positive sign.

......

…

“It’s you! The vice cult leader of the Ghost Immortal cult, Lan Caidie…”

“I’ve found Yang Yutian. Sure enough, he’s fearlessly harvesting all of the medicinal gardens in the Skyscraping World, but he’s actually with the vice cult leader of the Ghost Immortal cult, Lan Caidie…”

“Dammit, don’t tell me Yang Yutian has already fallen under the control of Lan Caidie? She’s a real piece of work…”

“Lan Caidie was recognised by an extremely powerful Remains of the Ghost Immortal. It’s said that once she uses that power, even those with our cultivations will only face death…”

“We can’t provoke the Ghost Immortal cult. The heavenly resources on Yang Yutian are very tempting, but you still have to be alive to enjoy it…”

......

…

For the next period of the time, many of the experts who coveted Jian Chen’s heavenly resources came across him through a targeted search. However, when they saw Lan Caidie who accompanied Jian Chen, many of them became wary and extinguished their burning flames of greed.

Of course, the people who knew about Lan Caidie’s strength all came from extraordinary backgrounds and were extremely well-informed.

However, there were also a few Immortal Exalts who were unaware of Lan Caidie’s powers. Unable to resist the temptation and insistent on getting a share, they obviously could not avoid an intense battle with Lan Caidie.

In the end, everyone witnessed Lan Caidie’s shocking battle prowess that completely surpassed her peers. They ended up heavily injured, fleeing for their lives.

Unless they were supreme prodigies or had reached the Third Heavenly Layer, no one was Lan Caidie’s opponent.

Even a few regular Third Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalts could be overwhelmed by Lan Caidie!

“Fellow Yang Yutian, you seem to know the Skyscraping World like the back of your hand. I’ve noticed that you’ve only been travelling along straight paths the entire time,” Lan Caidie asked curiously as they continued towards the next medicinal garden.

“I’m not familiar with the Skyscraping World. I only know where each medicinal garden is located because senior Skyscraping Sword Venerable has specially provided me with a map which clearly marks out the location of each medicinal garden.” Jian Chen confessed.

When she heard that, Lan Caidie shuddered inside. She became even more certain about Jian Chen’s extraordinary identity.

If he were someone ordinary, why would he have received the special care of someone like the Skyscraping Sword Venerable?

“Senior Chaotic Star Heavenly Emperor and Venerable Caijian favour Yang Yutian heavily. Now, even the Skyscraping Sword Venerable has shown him particular care. What exactly are Yang Yutian’s origins?” Lan Caidie wondered. She became even more curious about Jian Chen’s true identity. She almost asked him directly several times.

Before long, Jian Chen and Lan Caidie arrived at the next medicinal garden. As soon as they approached the place, they discovered a middle-aged man in white robes who sat with his legs crossed and eyes shut outside the protective formation.

When she saw this person, Lan Caidie furrowed her brows. She was stern.

Jian Chen was surprised at first, but he smiled mysteriously the next moment.

“Great elder of the Immortal Feather sect, Tian Changji!” Lan Caidie said sternly. Her gaze was filled with caution.

The Immortal Feather sect had three Immortal Emperor great elders who entered the Skyscraping World this time. Two of them were mid Immortal Emperors, who soon reached the Seventh Heavenly Layer after entering the Skyscraping World.

The last person was a late Immortal Emperor, as well as the middle-aged man in front of them right now, Tian Changji!

Tian Changji was a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor!

At this moment, Tian Changji who sat near the medicinal garden slowly opened his eyes. His gaze was cold, devoid of any emotions. He glanced at Lan Caidie and Jian Chen and said, “Vice cult leader of the Ghost Immortal cult, Lan Caidie. I’ve heard of you. Even in our Immortal Feather sect, many people know about you. Even quite a few people of our Immortal Feather sect believe that you have an extremely high chance of reaching late Immortal Exalt!”

“It is a great honour for me to be known by the fellows of the Immortal Feather sect.” Lan Caidie clutched her fist. Despite only facing an Immortal Emperor, she did not dare to underestimate him. Instead, she was stern.

This was not due to his strength but because of his background. He was a great elder of the Immortal Feather sect!

The Immortal Feather sect was a colossal organisation on the same level as the Heavenly Star Palace. They were well beyond what the Ghost Immortal cult could provoke.

“Vice cult leader Lan, is this person under your control?” Tian Changji pointed at Jian Chen on the side and said emotionlessly.

“Fellow Yang Yutian is someone that princess Caijian favours heavily. How could I place such an important person under my control?” Lan Caidie said politely.

“That would be for the best. I’m here exactly for him. Vice cult leader Lan, step aside.” Tian Changji’s face was cold. He gave off a sense of arrogance.

As a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor great elder of the Immortal Feather sect, his status was only beneath the ancestors of the sect. He truly possessed the right to be aloof.
