Chapter 2020: Chapter 2023: Gathering from All Sides

It has been more than half a month since Jiang Chen and Zhang Sanfeng and the others separated.

During these two weeks, the three of them traveled while cultivating, only reaching the place where Fenglin City borders the eastern cities.

Fenglin City is too remote; there is not a single spatial teleportation array in the entire Fenglin City area. One can only teleport from the neighboring Kuiyuan City to Tianmu City, the central city of Shenmu Prefecture, then teleport from Tianmu City to Mingqian Prefecture, the central region of Mingqian Realm, where Changlin Academy is located in the vast mountains to the east of Mingqian Prefecture.

The teleportation arrays are said to be built by the first batch of powerhouses appearing in the Void Nether Realm. The Void Nether Realm is so vast that even a Unity Realm Stage cultivator flying at full force for a year cannot glimpse the full view of the Void Nether Realm.

Later, people began relying on teleportation arrays in various places to live, gradually forming the different major domain prefectures and towns.

North of Fenglin City.

Here lies a vast forest composed of pitch-black trees as black as ink.

The entire forest covers a hundred-mile area, and all the trees are completely black, which highlights the terrifying nature of the Saint Tribulation of the past. After five hundred years, the newly grown trees here are still black, and the power of the Saint Tribulation can radiate as far as a hundred miles, which truly amazes people.

At this time, the central ten-mile range of the forest is shrouded by dense black fog, which emanates intense Great Dao pressure, and from time to time, a sharp, invisible sword shadow flashes by.

In the southern dense fog area, a large group of cultivators surrounded the area. After several days of survey and the cost of more than a dozen lives, the cultivators found the spot where the sword shadows were the weakest in the fog. Meanwhile, they discovered that the black fog was gradually dissipating.

Standing in front of the large group of cultivators were five factions, which were the five top powers of Shenmu Prefecture: The Prefecture Lord’s Residence, Heavenly Sword Sect, Lingtian Pavilion, Wuyou Island, and the Shenmu Prefecture branch of Canghai Trade Alliance.

The name of the Shadowless Sword Emperor is renowned, and the five powers sent their strongest camps.

”Everyone, are we just waiting here for the black fog to disperse?”

Zhao Wenquan, the Pavilion Master of Lingtian Pavilion, looked at the people from the other four forces and spoke loudly, ”The news that the tomb of the Shadowless Sword Emperor has been unearthed has already spread. If we continue to wait, I’m afraid people from other prefectures will rush here. By then, the treasures in the tomb in our Shenmu Prefecture may not stay with us!”

The crowd exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.

The reason why only the cultivators of Shenmu Prefecture came here now is precisely because the news hasn’t spread so fast yet. Once people from other prefectures come, they might not have anything to do with it. After all, Shenmu Prefecture is the weakest prefecture on Changlang Continent.

In those major domains near the center of the continent, some cities might have more powerhouses than all of Shenmu Prefecture.

”Ha ha! Pavilion Master Zhao’s words are a bit unfair! The tomb appears in Shenmu Prefecture, but it can’t be counted as Shenmu Prefecture’s property. Treasures belong to those with virtue!”

A loud laugh sounded, and a group of figures descended from the sky.

”You are... people from the Wu Family of Mingqian Prefecture?!”

Pavilion Master Zhao’s eyebrows lightly furrowed, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. He looked up at the sky and found that besides the people from the Wu Family, there was no one else, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If all the major forces of Mingqian Prefecture were here, they could just give up and leave.

Although the Wu Family is a top family in Mingqian Realm, in the entire Changlang Continent, it can only be considered a second-rate power. Their family’s strength is slightly stronger than theirs, but not by much, and the people from the Wu Family who came this time are weaker than theirs, not worth fearing.

”So lively! This old man decided to join in as well.”

Another shout was heard as three figures appeared before everyone’s eyes.

”Wine-senior!”

”Greetings to Wine-senior!”

”Wine-senior is here as well!”

The faces of the people from the Wu Family of Mingqian Prefecture changed as they all bowed to the Wine-crazed Sword Emperor.

The faces of the people from Heavenly Sword Sect were filled with joy. They did not recognize the Wine-crazed Sword Emperor, but they all knew Yun Tao, whom Chen Jingxuan often brought to Heavenly Sword Sect to play.

Only Zhang Sanfeng and Chen Jingxuan’s expressions slightly changed.

”Young Master Jiang!”

A shout came from among the crowd of Heavenly Sword Sect, and Lin Yuyan ran joyfully to Jiang Chen’s front, ”Young Master Jiang, are you all right?”

”I’m fine.”

Jiang Chen smiled slightly, somewhat surprised, ”Why are you here too?”

”Master brought me to see the world.”

Lin Yuyan replied softly.

Lin Yuyan’s actions caused everyone to be taken aback, and then two loud shouts sounded.

”So you are Jiang Chen!”

”Jiang Chen, give back my son’s life!”

The forces of all the factions were once again surprised, turning to look at where the shouts came from.

One shout came from the people of the Prefecture Lord’s Residence, and the other came from the Heavenly Sword Sect.

Jiang Chen was slightly puzzled, turning to look in the direction of the two people.

One of them was dressed in a brocade robe, his complexion extremely gloomy, looking at him with a trace of cold killing intent in his eyes. The other had a similarly cold look, with Zhang Sanfeng and Chen Jingxuan standing beside him, separated not long ago.

In an instant, Jiang Chen realized who these two people were. Not long after coming to the Void Nether Realm, he could only recognize himself by Lin Yuyan and hold grudges against him; there were only two people.

”That one is the Heavenly Sword Sect’s Vice Sect Leader, Tang Lin, and the other should be City Lord Liu Mingzhe of Fenglin City.”

Yun Tao said softly.

Jiang Chen nodded gently, Yun Tao’s words confirming his guess.

”What’s going on?”

”Who’s that arriving?”

”That kid seems to have a feud with Tang, the Vice Sect Leader of Heavenly Sword Sect, and Liu, the City Lord of Fenglin City!”

”Daring to run out after offending two major forces, that kid has guts!”

”The old man he’s following seems to have some background; the people from Wu Family of Mingqian Realm seem to respect that old man!”

The two loud shouts triggered whispers among the crowd.

”What’s going on?”

Fan Zhongming, the Prefecture Lord of Shenmu Prefecture, turned to look at Liu Mingzhe behind him.

”Prefecture Lord, that brat killed my son!”

Liu Mingzhe glared fiercely at Jiang Chen and said coldly.

Fan Zhongming’s expression slightly changed. He glanced at the people of Wu Family, then looked at the Wine-crazed Sword Emperor, and walked up to the Wine-crazed Sword Emperor, cupping his fist respectfully, ”Dare I ask the senior’s name?”

”He should be the mad Wine-crazed Sword Emperor senior of Changlin Academy, right? I am Pang Dahai, the president of Canghai Trade Alliance’s Shenmu Prefecture branch.”

A middle-aged man with a big belly and wide waist from Canghai Trade Alliance spoke with a smiling face.

”What!?”

”He’s the Wine-crazed Sword Emperor?!”

”No wonder that kid dared to appear here after offending two major forces!”

”The Wine-crazed Sword Emperor is one of the four top powerhouses of Changlin Academy, renowned throughout Mingqian Realm!”

The cultivators exclaimed in shock upon hearing this.
