Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 3562: Punitive Expedition Against the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder (1)

“You wish to meet the seniors of our Immortal Sect of Myriad Swords?” Chen Feng smiled deeply and said, “I am an elder of the Immortal Sect of Myriad Swords. If you have anything to say, you can just tell me. I too am your senior.”

Jian Chen shook his head and said, “In terms of age alone, you’ve cultivated for several hundred thousand years at the very least, so you are indeed my senior. However, when it comes to your strength and status, you are nowhere close to my standard, as the seniors of your esteemed sect that I wish to meet have to be Immortal Emperors at the very least. If it’s possible, it would be best if I could meet an Immortal Exalt ancestor of your esteemed sect.”

“You’re dreaming if you think you can meet the supreme ancestors of our Immortal Sect of Myriad Swords. Even I don’t have permission to meet great elders whenever I want, let alone the ancestors. However, considering that you are the new sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, I will report the situation here to a great elder. Whether the great elder wants to meet with you is not something that I can decide,” said Chen Feng.

“Thank you!” Jian Chen cupped his fist at Chen Feng with sincerity.

“Then I can go now?” Chen Feng asked.

Jian Chen made an inviting gesture and said, “Of course. You can remain in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens as Chen Feng and continue with your mission.”

Chen Feng glanced at Jian Chen deeply. He turned around and left without saying anything.

“I never thought there would actually be a disciple of the Immortal Sect of Myriad Swords hidden in our Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. They’re even an Immortal Monarch elder too.”

Elder Nong sighed after Chen Feng had left. A hint of emotion flashed through the depths of his eyes.

Chen Feng’s existence made elder Nong feel like the Immortal Sect of Myriad Swords of the twelve courts of heaven had not truly given up on the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens just yet. Otherwise, they would not have specially sent an Immortal Monarch elder to lurk in hiding within the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens for such an extended period.

“Elder Nong, how much trust do you have in the Immortal Sect of Myriad Swords?” Jian Chen looked at elder Nong. He had heard quite a lot about the Immortal Sect of Myriad Swords before. They had assisted the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens tremendously in the past. When the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens was in its most vulnerable position, only the Immortal Sect of Myriad Swords had stood forward, standing with the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens without hesitation.

If it were not for the betrayal that occurred in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens that drew in the Sacred Beast clan, perhaps the Immortal Sect of Myriad Swords would only do more for the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.

However, he was also aware that elder Nong had lived for much longer than him. He had seen and experienced much more than him too. When it came to elder Nong’s understanding of the Immortal Sect of Myriad Swords, it would only be better than his.

“The sect master is worried that the Immortal Sect of Myriad Swords hides ulterior motives towards us like the other organisations?” elder Nong asked.

Jian Chen’s gaze was deep. He said slowly, “It’s best to be careful with everything.”

Elder Nong did not give an immediate reply. Instead, he said after a moment of deliberation, “I’m still quite trusting of the Immortal Sect of Myriad Swords. Of course, there are also times when I am wrong. Please make your decision irrespective of what I said, sect master.”

After a moment of silence, Jian Chen said, “Let’s keep calling people in. We’ve only cleaned up a small portion of the spies discovered.”

Afterwards, disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens entered the Divine Hall of Violet Heavens one after another. They were all Xuan Immortals.

After the Xuan Immortals were the Daluo Golden Immortals.

Jian Chen cleaned up the spies in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens with lightning speed. He did not spare anyone he discovered.

He was aware that doing this would perhaps alert the organisations behind these people, but he had no other choice. After all, he would have to expose many secrets sooner or later if he wanted to accelerate the developments of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.

He obviously had to do everything that he could to hide these secrets. He had to keep them hidden for as long as possible.

After three whole days, Jian Chen finally dealt with all the problematic disciples he had discovered. However, not all of these disciples were enemies. He discovered that the organisations behind some of these disciples did not seem to have any ill motives towards the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.

The organisations behind them only wanted a grasp over the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens’ current situation. It seemed as if they planned on providing some assistance that was within their abilities at crucial times.

Of course, even until now, they had never seen this so-called assistance.

However, Jian Chen did not kill disciples like that. Instead, he expelled them from the sect.

Cleaning up the spies took seven whole days. Seven days later, Jian Chen finally let out a sigh of relief inside the empty Divine Hall of Violet Heavens. He rubbed his temples and exhaled deeply. “With that, the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens should be much cleaner. However, I still can’t get careless. There are probably still some people who haven’t given themselves away yet.”

“Sect master, it’s already been several days since Xiang Shi was captured. The Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants has already learnt about this. They’ll probably come for retribution very soon. Should we make some arrangements before they’ve come?” Elder Nong clasped his fist at Jian Chen.

“You don’t have to worry too much about the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, elder Nong. Unless they mobilise Immortal Exalts, they can’t threaten us. However, even if they do manage to invite an Immortal Exalt, we’re not without a path of retreat. However, we might be forced to give up on some things if that time comes,” Jian Chen said without any concern. With his current abilities and strength, even if he could not directly clash against Immortal Exalts, there was no reason for him to fear them. He was completely capable of maneuvering around them.

Seeing how confident Jian Chen was, elder Nong seemed to find some comfort as well.

Jian Chen stood up and made his way over to the entrance of the Divine Hall of Violet Heavens slowly. He looked out at the landscape. He was filled with a sense of helplessness. The Sword Sect of Violet Heavens was currently surrounded by enemies, but with their current strength, they basically could not do anything if they wanted to protect this land. Most importantly, this also limited the space that they could move around in.

But unfortunately, there were certain things that he was forced to do. For example, he was forced to become the sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, forced to personally lead them. Otherwise, the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens would only decline with each passing day or even perish.

“Our priority is to elevate the strength of our disciples as quickly as possible. Only when the overall strength of the sect is great enough can we deal with even more dangers,” Jian Chen said in thought.

“We’ve now occupied the territories of the four surrounding organisations. We also have a tremendous amount of resources left behind by the Star Clustered Ancestor. With these resources, the strength of our sect grows steadily with each passing year,” said elder Nong.

“Just that alone is nowhere near enough.” Jian Chen shook his head gently. At that moment, he thought of the high grade Godking grass he had obtained from the Darkstar World in the past. Each stalk of Godking grass could be refined into a high grade Godking pill and nurture a Godking, which was a Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal in the Immortals’ World.

Right now, he still had almost a hundred thousand stalks of high grade Godking grass in his possession. If he refined them all into pills, that would be equivalent to a hundred thousand Godkings.

“However, even if we have a hundred thousand Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals, they’ll struggle to pose a threat to Immortal Monarchs and Immortal Emperors. We need a powerful formation to gather their strength. At the same time, the loyalty of the disciples right now is not even reliable, so we can’t use something as precious as high grade Godking pills on them just yet.”

“Moreover, refining high grade Godking pills requires a large number of supplementary materials. They need to be gathered as well.”

Jian Chen tossed a jade slip over to elder Nong and said, “Elder Nong, take a look at where you can gather these heavenly resources.”

These resources were all materials for refining high grade Godking pills, but the jade slip that he had tossed over to elder Nong had the names of all the heavenly resources erased.

The names used in the Saints’ World were different from the Immortals’ World, so he obviously could not include the names that he knew.

Elder Nong accepted the jade slip and took a look. He said in thought, “Sect master, there is one of these heavenly resources that I am quite familiar with, the Chillsky grass. There are many of them in the territory of the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder. The environment there is extremely suited for its growth. Basically more than half of the Chillsky grass in the entire Reverent Observance Heaven comes from the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder.”

“However, Chillsky grass isn’t some heavenly resource of particularly high quality, or the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder would have probably never been able to keep all of it.”
