The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2364: Chapter 2364: The Old Immortal Venerables’ Expectations

The law fluctuations between heaven and earth finally gradually calmed down.

This battle did not last long, it can be said to be very brief, but the process was extremely fierce. Each of the people including Fire Cloud Immortal Venerable possessed tremendous power, and when seven individuals teamed up to fight Jing Yan, the power they stirred up was unimaginable for ordinary cultivators.

Jing Yan floated in the void, gently waved his arm, and the Divine Power flowed, collecting the resources left behind by Fire Cloud Immortal Venerable and others.

At this moment, the Sect Leader of Heavenly Gate Dao Sect, Wan Lunhai, hardened his resolve and flew over proactively. Wan Lunhai tried his best to relax, but it was difficult to completely conceal the tension in his eyes.

If Jing Yan decided not to spare him, he might also fall here today alongside Fire Cloud Immortal Venerable. Moreover, he had no place to escape; he couldn’t possibly leave Heavenly Gate Dao Sect behind, right? And if he escaped back to Heavenly Gate Dao Sect, could the sect withstand the wrath of Jing Yan? The demise of the Slaughter God Hall is the best example.

”Immortal Venerable Jing Yan,” Wan Lunhai said with a stiff upper lip, bowing to Jing Yan.

Even at this point, he resented the deceased Min Lan Immortal Venerable immensely. If it weren’t for Min Lan Immortal Venerable coming to meet him at Heavenly Gate Dao Sect, he wouldn’t have offended Jing Yan.

Jing Yan looked at Wan Lunhai emotionlessly.

”Immortal Venerable Jing Yan, I’ve offended you in many ways before. Now, I’ve realized my mistake, please give me a chance.” Wan Lunhai lowered his head, speaking slowly.

Saying such words was very difficult for Wan Lunhai.

He was the Sect Leader of Heavenly Gate Dao Sect, a superpower in Faro Heaven. Wan Lunhai himself was very strong, comparable to Fire Cloud Immortal Venerable and Yangshan Master. Throughout countless years, when had Wan Lunhai ever been so humble?

”If Jing Yan is willing to give me a chance, my Heavenly Gate Dao Sect is prepared to sincerely apologize.” Wan Lunhai added another sentence.

This sentence indicates that Heavenly Gate Dao Sect is willing to apologize and also compensate.

Earlier, before the great battle, if Fire Cloud Immortal Venerable had been willing to relinquish the Fiery Flame Extreme Territory, he wouldn’t have died at Jing Yan’s hands. Furthermore, Jing Yan had agreed to give Wan Lunhai half of the Fire Cloud Crystal Stone produced from the Fiery Flame Extreme Territory.

It’s a pity that Fire Cloud Immortal Venerable underestimated Jing Yan’s strength and met with eternal demise.

”Sect Leader Wan Lunhai, Wu Xia and I will wait for you at the Mystic Moon Trading House Headquarters.” Jing Yan finally spoke, his tone indifferent.

Upon hearing Jing Yan’s words, Wan Lunhai breathed a sigh of relief. With Jing Yan’s words, he knew his life was spared. The next step was to make a visit to apologize and compensate for the losses. This compensation would certainly bleed him dry; if the compensation did not satisfy Jing Yan, something might still go wrong.

”Thank you, Immortal Venerable Jing Yan!” Wan Lunhai bowed once more, then also bowed to Wu Guo Heavenly Lord and others, and flew away.

The elder from Heavenly Gate Dao Sect naturally followed along.

Watching Wan Lunhai’s desolate back, Yangshan Master and others could only sigh in their hearts.

”Elder Kuo Lian, next you’ll have to arrange the mining of Fire Cloud Crystal Stones in the Fiery Flame Extreme Territory,” Jing Yan said to Elder Kuo Lian, who had just flown over.

”Alright, I’ll go back and arrange for personnel to gradually enter the Fiery Flame Extreme Territory to work.” Elder Kuo Lian was practically beaming.

Mining Fire Cloud Crystal Stones, the bulk certainly belonged to Jing Yan, but with Jing Yan’s character, Mystic Moon Trading House would surely benefit as well.

”But... there are quite a few disciples residing in the Fiery Flame Extreme Territory. If they obstruct our entry?” Kuo Lian paused and turned to Jing Yan.

”Have all those people leave the Fiery Flame Extreme Territory, and if they remain obstinate, kill them,” Jing Yan said.

Fiery Flame Extreme Territory was the old nest of Fire Cloud Immortal Venerable, but the guarding forces were not strong. Fire Cloud Immortal Venerable was dead, and his two disciples in the Immortal Venerable Realm were also dead. The remaining disciples were all cultivators below the Immortal Venerable rank. How could those people possibly stop Mystic Moon Trading House?

”Alright, I understand.” Elder Kuo Lian was full of energy as he spoke.

The reason Elder Kuo Lian had to ask was not out of fear of those disciples of Fire Cloud Immortal Venerable. The issue wasn’t with those disciples, but with Fire Cloud Immortal Venerable’s extensive connections. Although only six Immortal Venerables were invited as helpers this time, this was just a small part of Fire Cloud Immortal Venerable’s enormous network.

Even though Fire Cloud Immortal Venerable is now dead, there still might be strong allies willing to support Fire Cloud Immortal Venerable’s disciples. When Mystic Moon Trading House clears the Fiery Flame Extreme Territory, such strong allies might be drawn out. With Jing Yan’s clear attitude now, if anyone helps Fire Cloud Immortal Venerable’s disciples, Jing Yan will certainly step in.

Elder Kuo Lian and Elder Ming Hua also left afterward.

After Kuo Lian and Ming Hua had left, Wu Guo Heavenly Lord and a group also approached.

”Immortal Venerable Jing Yan, your strength is truly astonishing.”

An Immortal Venerable greeted Jing Yan with a bow.

”Indeed! In our Faro Heaven, Immortal Venerable Jing Yan is worthy of being called the first.” Another elderly Immortal Venerate said.

”I closed up in seclusion for sixty million years, and upon emerging, I see that Heavenly Domain produced a powerhouse like Immortal Venerable Jing Yan, it’s truly unimaginable.”

”...”

People spoke one after another; it wasn’t necessarily flattery, but it was evident they bore no animosity toward Jing Yan. Furthermore, none looked at Jing Yan as a junior anymore.

Despite Jing Yan’s extreme youth, in the path of Dao Skill, ability takes precedence. In Heavenly Domain, there are many Immortal Rhythm cultivators who are very old. Would such people dare to put on airs in front of Immortal Venerables?

”The compliments from you seniors are too much,” Jing Yan said humbly.

”With the talent of Immortal Venerable Jing Yan, if he enters the Immortal Venerable Tower, the possibility of his name being on the Immortal Venerable Golden Tablet should be high. Haha, other Heavenly Domains often ridicule Faro Heaven for having no Immortal Venerable name on the Immortal Venerable Golden Tablet. If Immortal Venerable Jing Yan can be on the Immortal Venerable Golden Tablet, let’s see what they will say.” Wu Guo Heavenly Lord said during a pause.

Upon Wu Guo Heavenly Lord’s words, Yangshan Master and others lit up in their eyes.

These old Immortal Venerables still had a very strong sense of identity with Faro Heaven. The absence of Faro Heaven Immortal Venerables’ names on the Immortal Venerable Golden Tablet was indeed a thorn in their hearts throughout countless years. Everyone wanted to remove this thorn, but there was no way to do it since there are only ten positions on the Immortal Venerable Golden Tablet, and it’s extremely difficult for a Heavenly Domain to produce an Immortal Venerable who can get on the Golden Tablet. It’s a feat far beyond effort or strategy to achieve.

Yangshan Master and other old Immortal Venerables looked at Jing Yan eagerly.

Wu Guo Heavenly Lord was right; if Jing Yan enters the Immortal Venerable Tower and obtains the Immortal Venerable Seal, there’s a great hope of him ascending the Immortal Venerable Golden Tablet!

”Hiss...”

At this moment, a mysterious fluctuation spread down from the void above everyone’s head.

This wave wasn’t strong initially, but all the Immortal Venerables present quickly sensed it. Subconsciously, everyone, Jing Yan included, looked upward.
