Chaotic Sword God Chapter 3949: The Skyscraping World Closes
Previously on Chaotic Sword God...
“He has successfully broken through! That is indeed the seed of ways granted by the Skyscraping Sword Venerable. To think it would facilitate such a rapid advancement…”
“While the seed of ways certainly contributed to Yang Yutian’s breakthrough, his innate talent cannot be overlooked…”
“Indeed. Without sufficient talent, even the assistance of the seed of ways would yield no progress. Nevertheless, achieving a breakthrough as swiftly as Yang Yutian has is remarkably rare…”
“I initially assumed that even with the seed of ways, he would require centuries or perhaps millennia to succeed. After reaching the Immortal Emperor realm, every minor advancement usually demands an immense amount of time. It is staggering that Yang Yutian accomplished this in a mere month…”
......
…
Jian Chen’s breakthrough was impossible to conceal from those nearby. Several Immortal Exalts sighed as they watched him, their expressions filled with complex emotions.
Originally, many had been lured here by the seed of ways, but that treasure no longer concerned them. Their focus had shifted entirely to the sovereign god artifact in Yang Yutian’s possession.
However, with the Divine Sword of the Heavenly Star standing guard by his side, these Immortal Exalts were forced to suppress their greed, hesitant to act recklessly.
Had it not been for that protection, even the early-stage Immortal Exalts might have been daring enough to fight for the prize, even against those at the Fourth Heavenly Layer.Xing Caijian’s eyes sparkled with brilliance. She watched the light-shrouded figure and offered a soft smile.
Naturally, she desired for the successor of the twin swords to become as powerful as possible.
Her assistance was not merely for Jian Chen, but for the legacy he carried.
During the period Jian Chen spent meditating on the Laws of the Sword, groups of Immortal Exalts arrived and departed. His exact coordinates were known to many. Had the Divine Sword of the Heavenly Star not been revealed, Jian Chen would never have found the tranquility required for his breakthrough.
Even Xing Caijian’s status as the daughter of a heavenly emperor would have been insufficient to protect him otherwise.
Zuo Dao from the Divine Valley of the Nine Heavens and the Heavenloss Master of the Sword Sect of Yang Soul continued their vigil over Jian Chen. Though their protection was technically unnecessary, it served as a clear statement of their position.
Vice cult leader Lan Caidie of the Ghost Immortal cult was nowhere to be seen. Having unleashed the power of the Remnants of the Ghost Immortal, she had suffered a heavy toll and was likely recovering in a hidden location.
Meanwhile, specific details regarding Jian Chen had been circulated throughout the Skyscraping World by several individuals.
He was the one who had slain the great elders of the Immortal Feather sect!
His true identity was Chang Yang, the individual with a bounty placed on him by the Wayless Immortal Exalt and a former member of the Thousand Immortal Generals of Observance Heaven City!
He commanded a formidable formation that had claimed the life of the Profound Spirit Master, a Fourth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt ancestor from the Heavenly Palace of Scaling Heights!
He held a sovereign god artifact capable of rapid healing, rendering him nearly invincible, and he had smuggled tens of thousands of people into the Skyscraping World.
At first, this news was confined to the Immortal Exalts, but it soon trickled down to everyone. From Immortal Emperors to Immortal Monarchs and even Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals, the word had spread.
The entire Skyscraping World was rocked by these revelations. The city lord of Immortal Rising City, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu, was in the midst of studying one of the nine secret techniques when his expression shifted repeatedly. He eventually lost the focus required to continue his comprehension.
“A sovereign god artifact! To think he actually has a sovereign god artifact!” Elsewhere near the base of the Skyscraping World, the city lord of Yi Immortal City, the Scarlet Fire Immortal Exalt, stood with his eldest son before a stone monument. Both were stunned by the news, their hearts racing.
“The Profound Spirit Master was at the Fourth Heavenly Layer. I never imagined someone of his caliber would fall to Yang Yutian. Father, we are fortunate we stayed out of it,” Chi Yutian, the eldest son, remarked with a sense of dread. A cold shiver ran down his spine.
The Scarlet Fire Immortal Exalt remained quiet for a moment before sighing. “You acted wisely. Regardless of Yang Yutian’s identity or his treasures, he is clearly someone our Yi Immortal City must not offend…”
......
,,,
“These people are truly contemptible.” Xing Caijian was well aware that the information regarding Yang Yutian had saturated the Skyscraping World. She was helpless to stop it, as dozens of Immortal Exalts were responsible for the leaks. She could hardly command the Divine Sword of the Heavenly Star to slaughter them all.
Even if she wished for it, the Divine Sword of the Heavenly Star would not comply.
“Once our time in the Skyscraping World concludes, Yang Yutian will surely become a legendary name across the Immortals’ World.” The Heavenloss Master gave a small laugh. He felt no concern for Jian Chen. Even with the exposure of the sovereign god artifact and the deaths of the Immortal Feather sect elders, who would dare touch him if the elder princess of the Heavenly Palace of Great Radiance offered her protection?
The Heavenloss Master pondered. A single tablet provided limited insight. He found himself torn between wanting Jian Chen to be close to the elder princess and fearing that very same connection.
He remained in a conflicted and uneasy state of mind.
Three months passed in a flash since Jian Chen had integrated the seed of ways. Suddenly, the Skyscraping World began to tremble violently. The pervasive mist churned as a brilliant golden radiance filled the sky, washing over every corner of the world. An immense pressure descended, causing the hearts of all experts to tighten.
One of the ultimate formations of the Skyscraping World had been triggered!
“The Skyscraping World is closing. The formation will now forcibly eject everyone.” Xing Caijian looked toward the massive formation overhead. This teleportation array had been crafted by a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt!
It was impossible to hide from this power; the formation would detect and move every living soul.
Xing Caijian had to wake Jian Chen from his deep state of Cultivation. She instructed, “When we exit, remain silent and stay behind me. I will reach out to my father immediately.”
Jian Chen observed the gathering energy of the formation in the sky. After a brief pause, he replied, “Do not worry. Since I chose to act as I did within this world, I naturally have a plan to get away safely.”
“That is a needless gamble. The only certain way to stay safe is to wait for my father’s arrival.” Xing Caijian urged, looking directly at him.
“I have killed several great elders of the Immortal Feather sect. It would be inappropriate for the Chaotic Star Heavenly Emperor to get involved. It would only complicate matters further,” Jian Chen stated firmly. Xing Caijian had been a great ally, and since he was certain he could escape, he did not want to involve the Heavenly Star Palace in his troubles.
