Chaotic Sword God

After learning about the past between the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens and the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, Jian Chen could not help but suspect that there were traces of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants behind the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens’ rapid decline.

“Immortal Emperor Taihang’s lingering will did mention that the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens was targeted by many major organisations. Coupled with the past conflict between the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants and the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, they probably wouldn’t let such a great opportunity to add insult to injury slip by.”

“Perhaps the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants is also one of the many organisations that’s been targeting the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens,” Jian Chen thought. He began to raise his guard against the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.

Through the Alliance of the Immortals, he could see the strength of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. No matter how confident he was, he did not believe he was powerful enough to contend against a great organisation like that.

He had already approached the central region of the Immortals’ World now. The places that existed here were far more powerful than the Grand Sovereign Heaven. He was confident that he had no need to fear the Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals, but he still needed to demonstrate the utmost caution against peak organisations with mid Immortal Exalts at the very least.

“However, these organisations don’t seem to be bold enough to openly work against the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. They’ve only been planning in secret or coming up with some schemes to target the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. Otherwise, with the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens’ strength, how could they have persisted until now?”

“There should be some people assisting the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens from behind. It’s just that these people only seem to be able to ensure the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens isn’t completely destroyed.” Jian Chen guessed.

With various thoughts, he arrived near the passageway very soon.

“I come from the Immortal Sect of Grasping Ways from the Scarlet Brilliance Heaven. I’ve come to the Modest Silence Heaven as a thoroughfare. I plan on going to the Reverent Observance Heaven. Please help me out with this favour.” Near the passageway, an old man in red robes took out a tablet. He was about to leave with a few juniors.

“So it’s a fellow from the Immortal Sect of Grasping Ways. Please come this way, fellow. The Modest Silence Heaven has been sealed up due to the war. If it’s caused you any inconvenience, please do forgive us.” As soon as they heard he was from the Immortal Sect of Grasping Ways, several Immortal Monarchs from the Alliance of the Immortals immediately received him personally with great politeness.

Very soon, the old man from the Immortal Sect of Grasping Ways left the Modest Silence Heaven with his juniors without any obstruction.

“How come? How come your Alliance of the Immortals doesn’t let us leave?”

“Why are others able to leave safely whereas we can’t?”

“Senior, I’m just a significant figure who has been cultivating quietly on the Modest Silence Heaven. I’m not some spy at all. Please show some mercy and let me leave.”

Afterwards, immortals constantly departed through the passageway that was not particularly large. However, without any exception, all the departing immortals had stated their identities and showed keepsakes that could prove their identities.

Of course, there were many other immortals who were stopped, forbidden from leaving the Modest Silence Heaven.

All these people either came from small sects or were independent cultivators with no place of belonging.

The Alliance of the Immortals treated these people completely differently from the disciples of peak organisations.

“Sir, please state your identity. Which heaven do you come from? And which organisation do you belong to?” Jian Chen was also stopped. The person who stopped him was an Immortal Monarch from the Alliance of the Immortals.

Jian Chen frowned slightly. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he had disguised himself as an Immortal Monarch, as Immortal Monarchs were valued by all organisations everywhere.

Yet, he had never thought that even Immortal Monarchs would be stopped by the Alliance of the Immortals.

The unruliness of the Alliance of the Immortals was beyond his expectations.

“I have always moved alone, wandering the Immortals’ World without a fixed dwelling,” Jian Chen answered.

When he heard that, the Immortal Monarch from the Alliance of the Immortals snickered sinisterly. He forced out a smile. “Fellow, without a formal identity, please forgive the Alliance of the Immortals, as we can’t let you go. Please remain in the territory of the Alliance of the Immortals. It won’t be too late for you to leave once the situation stabilises.”

Jian Chen immediately understood that the so-called formal identity was the background of a peak organisation.

The Alliance of the Immortals refused to provoke any of the peak organisations from the other heavens, which was why anyone with an important enough background could leave successfully. If they did not have a background powerful enough to raise the attention of the Alliance of the Immortals, then they would be forced to remain in the Alliance of the Immortals’ territory.

Jian Chen subconsciously glanced past the crowd behind him and sighed inside. He had already realised that the immortals that were stopped would probably end up as cannon fodder for the Alliance of the Immortals against the other great organisation.

The Alliance of the Immortals was a coalition formed by over half of the peak organisations on the Modest Silence Heaven. They were so powerful that they could do anything that they wanted, without any fear, on the Modest Silence Heaven.

As a result, the immortals from small sects or the ones without a place of belonging were not taken seriously by them.

However, how could Jian Chen let the Alliance of the Immortals trap him here? His gaze suddenly turned cold. Immediately, he stopped holding back, and the powerful presence of an Immortal Emperor erupted from his body. He stared sharply at the Immortal Monarch who had stopped him and used his powerful presence to force him back. Even the Immortal Monarch’s face became rather pale.

“Move aside. Whether I stay or leave is not for your Alliance of the Immortals to decide!” Jian Chen called out.

“An Immortal Emperor! It’s actually an Immortal Emperor!”

“He’s an Immortal Emperor! I didn’t think the Alliance of the Immortals was even bold enough to stop Immortal Emperors!”

As Jian Chen’s presence erupted, the immortals in the surroundings immediately called out. Many people began to look at Jian Chen in a different way. That was the reverence and fervency towards the strong.

The Immortal Monarchs from the Alliance of the Immortals became stern as well. They did not dare to talk too much in front of Immortal Emperors.

“Fellows, you better watch what you say. After all, this is the Modest Silence Heaven. On the Modest Silence Heaven, everything is determined by our Alliance of the Immortals.” At this moment, an elderly voice rang out. In the next moment, an old man in black robes appeared in front of Jian Chen.

The old man was also an Immortal Emperor, at the Second Heavenly Layer!

“Greetings, great elder!”

The Immortal Monarchs from the Alliance of the Immortals immediately clasped their fists and bowed in respect.

“In other words, your Alliance of the Immortals plans on trapping me on the Modest Silence Heaven?” Jian Chen stared straight at the old man in black robes.

The old man smiled sinisterly. “I really must apologise, fellow. These are extraordinary circumstances. Without a formal identity, no one can leave here. That’s to prevent some secret intelligence of our Alliance of the Immortals from ending up in the hands of the enemy.”

“Of course, if you’re really in a hurry to leave, it’s not that you can’t. As long as you bring me the heads of an Immortal Emperor and ten Immortal Monarchs once the war begins, you’ll be able to leave freely.”

The old man in black robes stood before Jian Chen with his arms crossed. Confidence filled his face. After banding together, their Alliance of the Immortals even had several Immortal Exalts, let alone Immortal Emperors. They had never been so powerful before.

With such a great backing, Immortal Emperors were truly nothing in their eyes.

“Yep, coercing an Immortal Emperor into working for the Alliance of the Immortals is a good idea,” thought the old man in black. If he could “rope in” an Immortal Emperor, it would be quite a contribution.

“The heads of an Immortal Emperor and ten Immortal Monarchs? That’s not impossible. Since you’ve mentioned a request like that, I’ll bring you an Immortal Emperor’s head right now,” Jian Chen said gently.

“Right now?” The old man in black robes was taken aback, but he soon rejoiced slightly inside. He said reflexively, “Fellow, we still haven’t begun fighting yet…”

However, as soon as he said that, a resplendent streak of light turned into a stream of sword Qi, directly shooting towards his neck.
