Chapter 682: Chapter 464: Ancient Fierce Beast Remains? Qiankun Array Plate, Attitudes of Each Sect_2

Jin Qiandao’s voice rang out again.

”How—how is that possible? He’s just a cultivator at the Early Stage of Mahayana!”

The Third Elder was shocked to his core—this was something absolutely unprecedented!

The gap between even a small realm isn’t something you can bridge so easily.

And yet Lin Chang’sheng could look down on cultivators at the Early Stage of Tribulation Crossing? It took Middle or Late Stage Tribulation Crossing experts just to suppress him?

Was this kid some kind of Undying Body?

”Sect Leader, since this man has already become hostile to our sect, we cannot afford to let him live. Otherwise, he’ll pose a tremendous threat to us in the future!”

The Grand Elder of the Heaven-Suppressing Sect wore a golden hairpin, his eyes flashing with a cold light.

Now that Lin Chang’sheng had killed a Heaven-Suppressing Sect Elder, he was clearly prepared to go to war with them. He couldn’t be spared.

”I agree with the Grand Elder’s view.”

”Me too!”

”Lin Chang’sheng can’t be allowed to live!”

The other sect elders all chimed in, convinced that Lin Chang’sheng should be eliminated.

Jin Qiandao hesitated for a moment, but in the end nodded his assent.

”If you’re going to act, you must do it thoroughly—kill him completely to prevent future problems!”

Jin Qiandao spoke slowly, ”Grand Elder, I’ll leave this matter to you, along with the Third, Fifth, and Sixth Elders. You must suppress Lin Chang’sheng completely—no loose ends!”

”Sect Leader, to kill Lin Chang’sheng, surely there’s no need for so many of us?”

The Grand Elder was a little puzzled—he alone should be enough to suppress Lin Chang’sheng, given he had Late Stage Tribulation Crossing cultivation. How much trouble could a puny Mahayana cultivator really cause?

”You cannot afford to be careless. All of you set out together!”

Jin Qiandao cautioned.

”Yes!”

The Grand Elder did not dare say anything more, and after bowing in acknowledgment, quickly turned and left.

”Wait!”

Just as the elders were about to depart, Jin Qiandao called out.

”Sect Leader, do you have further instructions?”

The Grand Elder turned back, confused.

Was the Sect Leader changing his mind?

Jin Qiandao just waved his hand, sending forth a ray of light; the Grand Elder caught it. In his hand appeared a golden disk.

The disk glowed intensely—clearly a mysterious and extraordinary object.

”Sect Leader, what is this?”

The Grand Elder asked, puzzled.

”This is the Qiankun Array Plate, a Heaven-Reaching Immortal Treasure. It can trap and kill formidable enemies—perhaps you’ll find it useful at a critical moment!”

Jin Qiandao said with full concentration.

He still felt Lin Chang’sheng was deeper than he appeared, so he made some extra preparations.

With four powerful elders hunting down a Mahayana cultivator and carrying a Heaven-Reaching Immortal Treasure, it should be a sure thing.

”Hunting down a mere Mahayana brat, and the Sect Leader is giving us a Heaven-Reaching Immortal Treasure? Isn’t that a bit much? I could kill him with a single strike!”

The Third Elder scoffed.

”Better safe than sorry. Go quickly and return quickly!”

Jin Qiandao waved his hand.

The four immediately left at speed.

...

As the Heaven-Suppressing Sect made their move, Yu Lanfeng of the Piaomiao Sect had returned to the sect.

She reported everything she’d learned to Sect Leader Jiang Wenyue.

Jiang Wenyue immediately convened a meeting of the sect elders.

”You suspect that the Holy Pill was refined by Lin Chang’sheng?”

Jiang Wenyue’s elegant brows furrowed as she looked at Yu Lanfeng.

Lin Chang’sheng’s cultivation and talent were famous throughout the Immortal Realm.

But when did Lin Chang’sheng get so gifted in Alchemy?

To be so young and yet able to refine a Holy Pill—even Jiang Wenyue had trouble believing it.

Within Piaomiao Sect’s Immortal Moon Hall, all the elders were gathered.

The various elders looked at Yu Lanfeng in shock and disbelief.

The reason for their reaction was that Yu Lanfeng wasn’t known to lie.

Which meant this story was all the more likely to be true.

So their faces were full of shock.

If it had been someone else speaking, they would probably just have laughed it off.

”Although Lin Chang’sheng didn’t admit it, I could tell from his eyes—the pill was definitely refined by him, and the Nine Lotus Sacred Fire from the other day was certainly taken by him too!”

Yu Lanfeng spoke earnestly, turning the hall utterly silent.

Everyone sucked in a sharp breath.

”This kid is just too monstrous—if he ever goes astray, he’ll be a disaster for the Immortal Realm!”

Elder Wu didn’t care much for Lin Chang’sheng; he felt the kid was destined to meet his end.

Otherwise, if Lin Chang’sheng grew any further, who knew what havoc he’d bring to the Immortal Realm?

Elder Wu had been the one to bring his disciples to compete on the Celestial Pride List, so he’d seen Lin Chang’sheng before.

Lin Chang’sheng’s talent on the Celestial Pride List had left Elder Wu deeply uneasy.

He felt if Lin Chang’sheng didn’t fall, someday he’d stir up an enormous storm in the Immortal Realm.

”It’s not that easy to get rid of him. He could suppress Liao Xinghu of the Heaven-Suppressing Sect with ease—I’d wager only Tribulation Crossing experts can handle him!”

Yu Lanfeng gave a pointed reminder.

But she was actually understating it—a Tribulation Crossing expert would still struggle to kill Lin Chang’sheng.

”What? You said you and he killed Liao Xinghu together?”

Elder Wu was caught off guard—he never expected Lin Chang’sheng to reach such a formidable level.

How long had it been since the Celestial Pride List?

Back then he was just a Void Refining disciple, and now he’s killing Mahayana elders by himself?

If he gets any more time to grow, won’t he even look down on Tribulation Crossing experts?

”At the time, I was already gravely wounded by Liao Xinghu. Although we did join forces, my contribution was practically negligible; it was basically Lin Chang’sheng who single-handedly killed Liao Xinghu!”

Yu Lanfeng explained.

”This...”

That left Elder Wu wide-eyed, his face full of astonishment.

”Sect Leader, if this is all true, we can’t afford to let Lin Chang’sheng live!”

Elder Wu proposed.

”Why?”

Jiang Wenyue’s expression was unreadable—she wanted to hear Elder Wu’s reasoning.

”He might be an Evil Cultivator! Even if he’s not, he’s been practicing Evil Magic, which will corrupt his mind and make him a killer. Are we supposed to let such an evil person run free and grow stronger?”

Elder Wu looked to the others for their support.

But most of the elders just stared silently at him.

”That’s not true,”

Yu Lanfeng said, ”I was heavily injured at the time—Lin Chang’sheng could easily have killed me and taken my Holy Pill, but he didn’t. That shows he’s not someone who kills for profit!”

Yu Lanfeng spoke her mind, earning recognition from quite a few elders.

If Lin Chang’sheng was bloodthirsty, Yu Lanfeng would’ve never made it back alive, nor would the Holy Pill have survived.

”That makes sense—Lin Chang’sheng isn’t the bloodthirsty type.”

”Yeah! He risked offending the Heaven-Suppressing Sect just to save Elder Yu. Most people wouldn’t dare!”

”It’s a shame for such a genius to fall so young. I heard the Immortal Martial Hall has been trying to recruit Lin Chang’sheng, but he hasn’t agreed.”

”Sect Leader, this man’s talent is extraordinary. I think befriending him is smarter than making him an enemy!”

....

The surrounding elders discussed animatedly.

Most of them agreed with Yu Lanfeng.

”Sect Leader, you mustn’t—”

”Enough. I’ve made up my mind!”

Elder Wu wanted to argue further, but Jiang Wenyue raised her hand for silence.

Making an enemy of such a genius was obviously foolish.

The Immortal Palace and Divine Pill Pavilion wanted to befriend Lin Chang’sheng, and clearly they had their reasons.

Even the Immortal Martial Hall was willing to set aside the matter of He Jie’s death and recruit Lin Chang’sheng—clearly his value is immense.

”Elder Yu, instruct the sect disciples not to offend Lin Chang’sheng. Even if we can’t win him over, we must never make him our enemy!”

After Jiang Wenyue issued the order, she closed her eyes.

The other elders, seeing this, dared not say more and quietly left.

...

The Piaomiao Sect was willing to befriend Lin Chang’sheng, but other sects truly hated him.

Including the Celestial Nether Sword Sect, Spirit Mountain, Celestial Orchid Sect, Blood Robe Sect, and others.

The news that Lin Chang’sheng had suppressed a Heaven-Suppressing Sect Elder spread quickly.

Even Liao Xinghu of the Heaven-Suppressing Sect had died at Lin Chang’sheng’s hands, and it was easy to guess the fate of the others.

They were all desperate for Lin Chang’sheng to die sooner rather than later.

The Divine Pill Pavilion auction had cost these sects dearly—not only did they fail to gain any treasures,

they also lost numerous elders to untimely deaths.

”You bastard, I’ll kill you myself!”

Sun Tiance, Sect Leader of the Celestial Orchid Sect, shouted angrily, planning to personally join the hunt for Lin Chang’sheng.
