Chaotic Sword God

The Immortal Exalts who emerged from the Skyscraping World all shivered inside. The Scholar Capital Master’s attack made them all feel the aura of death.

However, despite the devastating might of the Scholar Capital Master’s attack, none of the Immortal Exalts who emerged from the Skyscraping World felt worried about Jian Chen.

Right when the surging energy produced from the Scholar Capital Master’s hand was about to strike Jian Chen, the clear thrum of a sword suddenly erupted. A dazzling streak of sword Qi suddenly shot out from the Divine Sword of the Heavenly Star in Xing Caijian’s arms, instantly slicing through space and flashing past the Scholar Capital Master’s hand.

When the sword Qi appeared, a terrifying pressure filled the space there, immediately leaving the owners of the medicinal gardens shocked.

“T-this presence… This is the presence of a sovereign god artifact…”

“There’s actually a sovereign god artifact here…”

......

…

The owners of the medicinal gardens cried out. All of their gazes changed. They all turned towards Xing Caijian.

When the sword Qi from the Divine Sword of the Heavenly Star shot past the Scholar Capital Master’s hand, the attack immediately dispersed. At the same time, he felt a stabbing pain.

He subconsciously checked his hand. All he found was a bloody gash. It was not deep, but it struggled to heal.

The Scholar Capital Master immediately calmed down. He retreated reflexively. At the same time, he looked at the Divine Sword of the Heavenly Star in Xing Caijian’s arms. He had never been so stern before.

As a Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt, he immediately recognised the presence—it belonged to a sovereign god artifact. He also understood that it had no intentions of harming him with the sword Qi. Otherwise, his injuries would be far more than a gash on his hand given the might it had just demonstrated.

“Who are you?” The Scholar Capital Master had already retreated far away. He stared straight at Xing Caijian, but most of his attention went to the Divine Sword of the Heavenly Star in Xing Caijian’s arms. A hint of burning greed that he struggled to restrain flashed through the depths of his eyes.

A sovereign god artifact, especially one with such terrifying power, was far stronger than the Divine Sword of the Immortal Soul in his possession.

No, it was not just far stronger. They were incomparable. They were on completely different levels.

Despite desiring it very much, the Scholar Capital Master did not have the courage to seize it. The terrifying power that the Divine Sword of the Heavenly Star had just revealed already gave him chills.

At that moment, Xing Caijian became the centre of attention. All of the cultivators gathered there, regardless of cultivation, turned their gaze towards her.

“Scholar Capital Master, this is princess Caijian of the Heavenly Star Palace!” An Immortal Exalt who emerged from the Skyscraping World introduced her proactively.

“Princess?” A hint of doubt flashed through the Scholar Capital Master’s eyes. The Heavenly Star Palace was one of the twelve courts of heaven. The title of princess was not one that could be claimed by any ordinary member of the organisation.

But shortly afterwards, the Scholar Capital Master thought of something. His heart skipped a beat in surprise. The way he looked at her changed. “You’re the daughter of the Chaotic Star Heavenly Emperor and Venerable Cajian, Xing Caijian?”

The owners of the medicinal gardens only learnt about Xing Caijian’s identity at that moment. They were all shocked.

The daughter of a heavenly emperor; this was no regular identity.

“Yang Yutian is a guest of our Heavenly Star Palace. If anyone wants to go after Yang Yutian, you better get through me first,” Xing Caijian said. Her voice was very plain, but it was filled with undefiable determination.

It was very difficult to imagine that a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor would still be able to speak so demandingly before the Scholar Capital Master who was already a Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt.

Given the heights he had reached, he would be a lofty existence even in a court of heaven, possessing an extremely illustrious identity. If there were no irreconcilable blood feuds, even courts of heaven were reluctant to make enemies out of such experts.

The Scholar Capital Master ignored Xing Caijian’s rudeness. He only stared at the ancient sword in her possession.

Xing Caijian slowly removed the coarse cloth around the Divine Sword of the Heavenly Star, revealing an extremely exquisite sheath. It was silvery-white in colour. Countless specks of light shimmered on there like stars, like a magnificent galaxy.

This was the first time that the Divine Sword of the Heavenly Star had revealed itself in this trip to the Skyscraping World.

However, only the sheath and hilt were visible. There was no pressure of a sovereign god artifact present either.

The Divine Sword of the Heavenly Star intentionally kept itself contained. It would not expose its edge until it attacked.

The Scholar Capital Master gasped. The power of the Divine Sword of the Heavenly Star made his heart burn with fervour, but he did not have the courage to go after this sovereign god artifact. He could only think about the Divine Sword of the Immortal Soul in his possession.

“The Spiritual Fruit of Sword Nurturing is my heart and blood, yet this person destroyed it. He owes me an explanation,” the Scholar Capital Master said coldly.

“The Spiritual Fruit of Sword Nurturing was planted by the Skyscraping Sword Venerable. It grew step by step through absorbing the spiritual Qi of the Skyscraping World. Since when did it become yours?” Xing Caijian asked.

“Xing Caijian, out of respect for the heavenly emperor, I’m not going to argue with you, but if I don’t get an explanation for the Spiritual Fruit of Sword Nurturing, I’m not going to drop this matter. Don’t tell me your Heavenly Star Palace wants to provoke a Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt over a Spiritual Fruit of Sword Nurturing?”

“Your Heavenly Star Palace may be one of the twelve courts of heaven and the Chaotic Star Heavenly Emperor is influential and highly respected among the important figures of the entire Immortals’ World, but allow me to say something that might not be so pleasant. Within your Heavenly Star Palace, there are only two or three experts who can threaten me.” The Scholar Capital Master was staking it all. The Spiritual Fruit of Sword Nurturing was too important to him.

Xing Caijian furrowed her brows in response. She knew that the Scholar Capital Master was telling the truth. There were not a lot of Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt even across the entire Immortals’ World. Some of the weaker heavens did not even have experts like that. Let alone their Heavenly Star Palace, even the twelve courts of heaven together only had a handful of experts who could handle someone like the Scholar Capital Master.

But despite that, Xing Caijian was not frightened either. “Looks like the Scholar Capital Master wants to make an enemy out of our Heavenly Star Palace over a Spiritual Fruit of Sword Nurturing that doesn’t belong to you.” Xing Caijian looked at the Divine Sword of the Heavenly Star in her arms and said slowly with a frigid voice,” Senior Heavenly Star…”

As soon as he heard Xing Caijian call for the Divine Sword of the Heavenly Star, the Scholar Capital Master’s heart sank. He called out, “It’s nothing difficult for your Heavenly Star Palace to settle my feud with this kid. You’ll only need to step forward and exchange for a Spiritual Fruit of Sword Nurturing of similar quality to the one from the Skyscraping World with the Immortal Sect of Myriad Swords. If you agree, I’ll leave immediately.”

“Scholar Capital Master, why ask for a Spiritual Fruit of Sword Nurturing to settle the feud? Isn’t it better to just seize Yang Yutian? Yang Yutian possesses a sovereign god artifact that can heal him indefinitely. It’s far more powerful than the Spiritual Fruit of Sword Nurturing…”

At this moment, an obscure voice rang out from thin air. It was clearly some sort of secret technique. Even mid Immortal Exalts could not find the source of the voice.

Basically all of the experts who emerged from the Skyscraping World knew about the sovereign god artifact’s existence, but the owners of the medicinal gardens who had been waiting outside did not. When this voice reached their ears, they immediately shuddered inside.

“Not only did Yang Yutian take the Scholar Capital Master’s Spiritual Fruit of Sword Nurturing, but all of the medicinal gardens in the Skyscraping World were destroyed by him too. All of the heavenly resources are in his possession…” The voice rang out again, echoing through the space as if it was asking for trouble. It completely divulged everything to do with Jian Chen in the Skyscraping World.
