Chapter 3738: The Crown Prince’s Scheme

Shortly afterwards, Daowei Chengqing left the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants with his three servants and arrived at the ancestral grounds of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.

At this moment, he stood on the ground and walked around slowly like a mortal around the ruined entrance of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. The three servants followed behind him quietly.

“I have a feeling that he will return again.” Suddenly, Daowei Chengqing looked at the sky above the main peak of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, directly locking onto the Energy-gathering Divine Mountain hidden in the space there. He smiled eerily.

“Master, is that person really worth all this attention?” a servant behind him asked in confusion.

“He is. He very much is.” Daowei Chengqing thought of something. An almost undetectable burning desire flickered through the depths of his eyes. “In the beginning, I only thought this person had extremely good fortunes, which was why he received the recognition of sovereign god artifacts. However, as I deepened my investigation of this person, I gradually discovered more things.”

“This person has willingly taken on the burden of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, which means he’s closely connected to the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. When he contended for the position of Thousand Immortal General in the Observance Heaven City, he even received the care of the artifact spirit of the Observance Heaven City, receiving all of the byes.”

“It’s anything but easy to get the artifact spirit of the Observance Heaven City to behave like that, so I suspect that the twin swords which vanished from the Immortals’ World three million years ago are with the new sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, Jian Chen.”

“He received the special care of the artifact spirit of the Observance Heaven City because of the twin swords.” Daowei Chengqing’s gaze immediately deepened.

“Master, you don’t even care about the Dominion’s Brush or the Book of the Populace. Don’t tell us you care about the twin swords?” a servant asked in surprise.

“The twin swords aren’t as simple as you imagine them to be. They fuse and turn into chaos. Across the six worlds, if there is any power that can suppress the Book of the Populace and the Dominion’s Brush, then it would be the twin swords.”

“However, the twin swords aren’t weapons that any regular person can possess. Otherwise, even Grand Exalts will perish from the backlash, without any possibility of rebirth.”

“Without any possibility of rebirth? Don’t tell me the Grand Exalt of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens has completely perished?” The three servants looked at one another.

“Obviously.” Daowei Chengqing nodded and continued, “But unfortunately, Jian Chen has that mask disguising him. Unless he appears before me, I can’t find him either. Otherwise, I really do want to find him soon.”

“Since master wants to find Jian Chen so urgently, why not ask the ancestor for assistance? The senses of the ancestor’s soul can engulf the entire Immortals’ World. It’s not difficult for him to find this person.” A servant suggested.

Daowei Chengqing shook his head. “No, we can’t let the ancestor know about this, nor can we let him know that the twin swords have already returned to the Immortals’ World, as he’s also after them.”

A strange ripple appeared around Daowei Chengqing, erasing all of the traces in the surroundings. Even Grand Exalts would not be able to recover his words or actions.

......

...

In the vast sea of stars of the Immortals’ World, a meteor shot through the darkness at a steady speed, travelling off in an unknown direction along a straight trajectory.

In the endless sea of stars, there were similar meteors that filled the entire place, countless of them. The meteor was just one of them.

But at this moment, the Primeval Divine Hall sat on the regular meteor’s surface like a grain of dust. Under the artifact spirit of the Primeval Divine Hall’s intentional disguise, all of the divine hall’s glow and pressure had been withdrawn. It did not give off a single ripple of energy.

Jian Chen sat on the Fortune God Jade in a secret room within the Primeval Divine Hall as he cultivated. A sharp presence gathered around him.

It was the Laws of the Sword. At this moment, everywhere around him was permeated with a thin layer of the Laws of the Sword.

During the years he spent in secluded cultivation in the Primeval Divine Hall, Jian Chen had already replenished all the Chaotic Force he depleted through the resources he obtained from the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. This period directly polished off a good number of God Tier pills and heavenly resources he had obtained.

After recovering his lost energy, he began to comprehend the Laws of the Sword through the special function of the Fortune God Jade.

However, given the height of cultivation that Jian Chen stood at, each increase was difficult. Arduous cultivation alone did not guarantee progress.

As a result, even with the assistance of the Fortune God Jade, Jian Chen made insignificant progress over these years of cultivation and comprehension.

That did not mean the Fortune God Jade was not powerful. Instead, after reaching Immortal Emperor, the time required for breakthroughs with the Fortune God Jade even when there was sufficient talent was measured in the tens of thousand years.

Breaking through a minor realm of cultivation in just a few decades or centuries was impossible no matter how impressive the Fortune God Jade was.

As a result, after a short few decades of cultivation, Jian Chen’s increases were negligible.

One day, Jian Chen was roused from his cultivation by a message.

The message came from hall leader Dan Chenzi of the Hall of Alchemy.
