Jian Chen looked over and roughly gauged the cloaked old man’s strength. He should be a Third Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt.

    “Keep your voices down. If you want to talk, communicate secretly or set up a noise-cancelling formation. Don’t bother us.” A gruff voice filled with dissatisfaction rang out. It came from a burly, middle-aged man who was bare-chested, exposing his firm muscles that seemed to be filled with power.

    The middle-aged man was a Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt. However, as soon as he spoke up, even the cloaked old man who was a Third Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt could not muster the courage to talk back. He shut his mouth obediently.

    Jian Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. From the cloaked old man’s response, he had already realised that the middle-aged man probably had impressive origins. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to deter a Third Heavenly Layer expert with his strength as a Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt.

    Jian Chen even noticed that from the moment the middle-aged man opened his mouth, many figures seated in the surroundings opened their eyes, but without any exceptions, both the Immortal Emperors and the Immortal Exalts looked at the middle-aged man cautiously.

    At this moment, the burly man looked at Jian Chen and said indifferently, “Newcomer, are you alone? A single page from the Skyscraping Sword Scripture has three spots. I’ll purchase your two remaining spots from you.”

    As he said that, Jian Chen immediately felt many gazes turn towards him. Even the people who seemed uninterested by his arrival seemed to be intrigued now.

    “The three spots for the Skyscraping Sword Scripture in my possession are all filled.” Jian Chen clasped his hands towards the middle-aged man.

    The middle-aged man furrowed his brows when he heard that; he was slightly displeased.

    “City lord Tan Yu, we’re here. You should come out for some air,” Jian Chen said softly. His voice directly drifted into the medium quality god artifact divine hall he carried on him.

    As soon as he said that, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu appeared by Jian Chen’s side. His presence as a Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt radiated outwards, immediately leading to many glances.

    “I am city lord Tan Yu of the Immortal Rising City on the Hall Brilliance Heaven. Greetings, everyone.” Immortal Exalt Tan Yu clasped his fist towards everyone in the surroundings as he smiled easily.

    “I think he’s spouting lies. The Starflame Demon Lion is very powerful, but you only need a Seventh Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt to kill it. With the Illusionary Ancestor’s lofty status, she would never interfere with something so trivial.”

    ......

    ...

    Immortal Exalt Tan Yu’s words set off a great storm. It left all of the Immortal Exalts shocked.

    “You said you were saved from the Starflame Demon Lion by the Illusionary Ancestor. Then do you know what the Illusionary Ancestor looks like?” The middle-aged man stared at Immortal Exalt Tan Yu in great interest.

    Immortal Exalt Tan Yu smiled gently and described the Illusionary Ancestor’s appearance. After hearing that, the middle-aged man fell silent at first before he slowly said, “In the past, when I visited the Waymight clan, I was fortunate enough to see the Illusionary Ancestor in person. She is indeed as you have described her to be. Tan Yu, you sure are lucky to receive the Illusionary Ancestor’s grace.”

    “How may I refer to you, fellow?” Immortal Exalt Tan Yu clasped his fist. The Waymight clan was not a place that regular people could visit.

    “Wondrous Success Heaven, Divine Valley of the Nine Heavens, Zuo Dao!” the middle-aged man replied.

    Immortal Exalt Tan Yu shuddered and immediately began treating the middle-aged man with much greater respect.

    “City lord Tan Yu, do you know about the Divine Valley of the Nine Heavens?” Jian Chen asked secretly.

    Immortal Exalt Tan Yu replied sternly, “On the Wondrous Success Heaven, the Divine Valley of the Nine Heavens is quite renowned. They were once known as the greatest organisation on the Wondrous Success Heaven. It’s rumoured that they have an Eighth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt. Of course, the Divine Valley of the Heavens has already been superseded by the Heavenly Palace of Great Radiance, so they’re second now.”

    As he said that, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu studied the surroundings and said, “This space was also opened up by the Skyscraping Sword Venerable, so it can be considered as part of the Skyscraping World. However, it’s still not the true dwelling. Only when all one hundred and eight pages of the Skyscraping Sword Scripture are assembled will the dwelling open.”

    “All of the fortunes lie within the dwelling.”
