Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 3911: The Myriad Ways Cult’s Calculations

With their departure, the noisy stone steps regained their previous peace, but pulses of energy continued to erupt and collide in the limited space. It turned into gusts of fierce wind, ruffling the clothes of the Immortal Exalts below.

“The Remains of the Ghost Immortal possessed by vice cult leader Lan Caidie of the Ghost Immortal cult truly is as powerful as rumoured. There were no exaggerations whatsoever,” said Zuo Dao warily as he looked in the direction that Lan Caidie had vanished in.

The power behind a single attack had repelled the combined attacks of ten Immortal Exalts in an unstoppable manner. In particular, the ten Immortal Exalts included an expert at the Fourth Heavenly Layer. The feat was far too startling.

It was not just Zuo Dao. The other Immortal Exalts who lingered nearby all shivered inside whenever they recalled the terrifying power that Lan Caidie erupted with.

“Fortunately, she could only use this power once in a while before suffering an extremely severe backlash. Otherwise, what would happen if a Second Heavenly Layer expert like her could freely use power of that level?”

The Immortal Exalts were all badly shaken. They had already developed deep wariness towards Lan Caidie.

“Hahahaha, Lan Caidie, I never thought you’d make such a foolish mistake despite being so clever. You actually decided to side with that guy called Yang Yutian at a time like this.” At this moment, laughter that conflicted with the atmosphere rang out. An old man dressed in daoist robes laughed aloud like a mad man. He even began dancing around on the spot.

All of the Immortal Exalts present were familiar with the old man, as he was an ancestor of the Myriad Ways cult. He was a First Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt, known as the Red Maple Grandmaster.

The Red Maple Grandmaster danced around in great joy. “That Yang Yutian has enemies scattered across the entire Immortals’ World now. Not only has he offended the Immortal Feather sect, but he’s also robbed all the medicinal gardens in the Skyscraping World. He’s even stolen the offering for the elder princess of the Heavenly Palace of Great Brilliance. Others all avoid a person who’s committed heinous deeds like him like the plague, yet you actually decided to side with him against your best judgement.”

“No, you didn’t just side with him. You’re his accomplice. You’re an accomplice…”

“Hehehehe, hahahaha, Ghost Immortal cult, how will you deal with his disaster? Will the Heavenly Star Palace be able to protect you like usual?”

With a flip of his hand, an item akin to a memory crystal appeared. He was already prepared. He had recorded the entirety of the events.

Worried that any accidents would happen to him, he immediately made several dozen copies of the memory crystal before tossing them towards the Immortal Exalts nearby. “Fellows, once the Skyscraping World opens again, please pass these memory crystals to the cult leader of our Myriad Ways cult. As compensation, our Myriad Ways cult will give you each fifty high grade God Tier pills.”

The Immortal Exalts were all disinterested initially, but all of their faces lit up with joy and interest when he mentioned the reward of fifty high grade God Tier pills. The only exception was Zuo Dao.

Fifty high grade God Tier pills was a tremendous sum that weaker Immortal Exalts that did not have proper backgrounds could not ignore.

As a matter of fact, the possessions of some poorer Immortal Exalts who only broke through recently would even be below fifty high grade God Tier pills in value.

“Please don’t worry, fellow Red Maple. I will deliver this to the hands of the cult leader as quickly as I can…”

The Immortal Exalts all agreed, stowing the memory crystals away like they were treasure.

Just delivering a single item could net them fifty high grade God Tier pills. That was quite a sum to them.

“Our Divine Valley of the Nine Heavens has no interest in your feuds,” Zuo Dao replied indifferently. With a wave of his hand, he returned the memory crystal that hovered before him.

The Red Maple Grandmaster was unfazed. Seeing how the other Immortal Exalts had all agreed, he finally let out a sigh of relief inside.

It was quite a large price, but as long as they could bring down the Ghost Immortal cult, losing these resources would be nothing.

“The Ghost Immortal cult is under the Heavenly Star Palace’s protection, which is why our Myriad Ways cult has never had the courage to launch a war of destruction against them in the past few years. After all, the Heavenly Star Palace will definitely stand forward at the very end. With that, everything we do will become meaningless. However, it’s different now. Even the Heavenly Star Palace might not be able to deal with the trouble that Lan Caidie has caused. As a result, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to destroy the Ghost Immortal cult…” the Red Maple Grandmaster thought to himself. He was in an extremely good mood. As a matter of fact, he even hoped for the Skyscraping World to open right now so that he could spread this news.

......

…

At this moment, in the region around the peak of the Skyscraping World, Jian Chen did not conceal his presence. He continued to travel with the Laws of Space. He seemed to teleport, crossing several hundred kilometres with each flash.

Ten aggressive Immortal Exalts pursued him relentlessly from behind. The Profound Spirit Master and the Heavenloss Master were at the very front.

The peak of the Skyscraping World was clearly even more abundant in spiritual Qi, so visibility was reduced to just three hundred kilometres here.

The mountain path curved and winded, reducing their visibility even further. With their senses of their souls suppressed, there were no experts who could move quickly in these circumstances.

“The peak of the Skyscraping World is only so big. Yang Yutian, if you just stayed in the lower region peacefully, we really would have been powerless over you, but you just had to come to the mountain peak…”

“You have nowhere to hide at all on the mountain peak, so why don’t you just give up and save yourself some pain?”

Immortal Exalts called out from behind.

However, Jian Chen ignored them. He advanced quickly as he checked the map of the Skyscraping World, just in case he ran into a dead end.

“It’s about time. Lan Caidie should have found a safe spot already.” After stowing the map away, Jian Chen decisively equipped the Divine Armour of Heavenflight at a fork in the road.

In the next moment, he completely vanished, person and all. He had perfectly concealed himself.

“Have you gone into hiding again? Hmph, the mountain peak might not be small, but it’s not big either. You still want to hide in this place? You’re dreaming.” The Profound Spirit Master sneered. He immediately looked back at the other and said, “Everyone, let’s split up. Once you find traces of Yang Yutian, keep him busy at all costs. We’ll rush over immediately.”

“Yeah. Yang Yutian’s cultivation might not be high, but his abilities are extraordinary. It’s very difficult to overwhelm him without the strength of a Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt, so it’s best if those who haven’t reached the Second Heavenly Layer stick together in groups,” said the Seven Antelope Ancestor.
