Chaotic Sword God

chapter-3598
In the city lord of the Observance Heaven City’s estate, Jiang Pingtian’s soul clone sat on the city lord’s throne and also paid close attention to the battle between Jian Chen and Zhou Dan.
Apart from Jiang Pingtian, there was someone else in the city lord’s estate. He was an old man that seemed like the embodiment of fire, such that he was dressed in bright-red.
He was one of the two vice city lords of the Observance Heaven City, the Master of Fire Virtue!
However, unlike Jiang Pingtian, the Master of Fire Virtue was here in person.
At this moment, the Master of Fire Virtue sat in the position belonging to the vice city lord beneath Jiang Pingtian. He smiled towards Jiang Pingtian. “Brother Jiang, I never thought you would pay so much attention to the competition for the Thousand Immortal General’s post this time. Despite cultivating in the sacred land with your main body, you’ve specially left a soul clone here. That’s not the brother Jiang that I know of.”Jiang Pingtian was calm. His gaze seemed to be fixed on Jian Chen the entire time. He replied calmly, “The competition this time around seems rather different.”
The Master of Fire Virtue smiled easily and looked towards the last remaining projection. “The competition this time is indeed rather different from before. A mere Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor junior has actually managed to make it so far among a group of Ninth Heavenly Layer opponents. That is very rare to see.”
“On top of that, he cultivates the Chaotic Body. Cultivating the Chaotic Body to such a level requires quite a lot of resources.”
“Oh right, brother Jiang, what are your thoughts regarding Chang Yang’s healing pills? Even high grade God Tier pills come nowhere close to healing all of those injuries in such a short amount of time for an Immortal Emperor.”
The Master of Fire Virtue looked towards Jiang Pingtian again.
Jiang Pingtian was unfazed, remaining placid like water. Very little things could lead to emotional responses from him.
“It’s very difficult to tell anything from a projection alone. However, I am certain that his rapid recovery has nothing to do with the pills. The pills only serve to deceive people. He should have something else wondrous on him,” said Jiang Pingtian.“You share the same sentiment as me then, brother Jiang. I also suspect that Chang Yang possesses something else on him. The effect of this item is to heal his injuries.” Reaching there, the Master of Fire Virtue sighed gently and said, “With that wondrous item and the toughness of the Chaotic Body, he’s basically unkillable. Looks like the junior from the Ye family has encountered a tough opponent this time around.”
On the last remaining battlefield, Jian Chen and Zhou Dan remained locked in an intense battle. They wore one another down.
After the two other battles had ended, Jian Chen and Zhou Dan fought for another three months. By now, Zhou Dan was covered in countless wounds and only had ten percent of his energy remaining. Only then did he finally stop his attacks.
On the other hand, Jian Chen’s wounds were only more severe than Zhou Dan’s, but another healing pill appeared in his hand.
“Enough, there’s no need to keep fighting. I forfeit. Chang Yang, you’ve won!” Zhou Dan supported himself with his spear and said tiredly.
The two of them had fought for a total of half a year. During that time, Zhou Dan had consumed many mid and high grade God Tier pills to power the high quality god artifact in his possession. It had also taken a tremendous toll on him.
And now, he could no longer continue.
Jian Chen stopped himself as he was about to ingest the pill and stowed the pill away. He looked at Zhou Dan with a hint of relief and said, “You’ve finally forfeited. If we kept fighting, I wouldn’t have been able to last much longer either.”
“Chang Yang, how many of those God Tier pills do you have left on you?” Zhou Dan looked at Jian Chen in interest.
Jian Chen hesitated slightly in response to that, but he soon took out a white jade bottle and poured out around a dozen jade-green pills from inside. Immediately, a dense vitality permeated the surroundings. “This much.”
“Sigh, what a waste. That’s truly a reckless waste of a treasure. Is it really worth it to waste such precious pills here?” Zhou Dan said painfully. He was unable to tell the grade of the God Tier pills, but he could clearly sense an extremely dense energy of life.
“I need to become a Thousand Immortal General. As long as I can claim that post, all of this will be worth it,” Jian Chen said firmly.
Zhou Dan shook his head. “Don’t get too hopeful. You’re guaranteed to lose in the next battle. You won’t be able to last until the very end.”
With that, the exhausted Zhou Dan was sent out of the ancient battlefield.
In the next moment, the power of the Observance Heaven City descended. Jian Chen felt his vision blur as he already arrived in the waiting zone.
With that, the top three competitors had all emerged—Ye Qingyun, Xia Mingtian, and Chang Yang!
According to the rules of the Observance Heaven City, the upcoming final battle would be a battle royale between the three of them. The final victor would win the Thousand Immortal General’s post.
The last round would occur in three months’ time.
Jian Chen appeared in the Observance Heaven City too. He did not ingest the pills radiating with the presence of life. Instead, he took out some mid grade God Tier pills from his Space Ring and ingested them without trying to hide them at all. His injuries immediately began to recover slowly.
However, the rate of recovery came nowhere close to before.
“Looks like Immortal Emperor Chang Yang really doesn’t have many healing pills left. Even with such heavy injuries, he can’t bring himself to use them.”
“Immortal Emperor Chang Yang is guaranteed to lose during the next round. With just around a dozen of those pills, he won’t be able to last very long.” Many immortals in the Observance Heaven City saw this and thought to themselves, acting as if they had completely understood everything that Jian Chen was capable of already.
Afterwards, Jian Chen went nowhere. He returned to the inn that he had stayed at previously.
“Fellow Chang Yang, I have been sent here by Immortal Emperor Ji Jiang. Immortal Emperor Ji Jiang is one of the Thousand Immortal Generals of the Observance Heaven City. He wants to invite you to his estate.”
At this moment, a voice rang out from outside the door to his room.
“Immortal Emperor Chang Yang, I come from the Immortal Sect of Five Elements of the Scarlet Brilliance Heaven. Our great elder has invited Immortal Emperor Chang Yang to visit him as a guest.”
“Senior Chang Yang, I am an elder of the Immortal’s End clan of the Seven Illuminations Heaven. Under the orders of our strongest great elder, I’ve specially come to invite Immortal Emperor Chang Yang. I hope you can give us the honour.”
Shortly afterwards, invitations from various organisations all arrived. The people who issued these invitations were all Thousand Immortal Generals of the Observance Heaven City. They all possessed a tremendous background.
Even the Vanishing hall and the Luo clan had sent people, directly stating that they wanted to purchase the healing pills in Jian Chen’s possession.
Jian Chen obviously turned down all of these invitations. He was well aware of what these people were inviting him over for. They all were after the healing pills that he possessed.
However, while the pills possessed extraordinary properties in his hands, enough for an Immortal Emperor to recover from all of their injuries in an extremely short amount of time, they were just regular low grade God Tier pills in the hands of others.
“Fellow Chang Yang, I come from the Immortal Feather sect. One of the ancestors of our Immortal Feather sect, the Wayless Immortal Exalt, has personally issued you an invitation. Please come to our Immortal Feather sect’s base in the Observance Heaven City as a guest,” at this moment, a slightly proud voice rang out from outside.
When he heard that, Jian Chen immediately frowned slightly. The Immortal Feather sect was one of the twelve courts of heaven. In terms of status and strength, they were on par with the archaean clans of the Saints’ World.
After a moment of silence, Jian Chen gave him a simple reply. “I am extremely heavily injured. I need to heal quickly, so please let your supreme ancestor of the Immortal Feather sect know that I will definitely go and apologise personally once I recover.”
“You sure are bold, Chang Yang. Are you actually going to reject an invitation from a supreme ancestor of our Immortal Feather sect?” The voice outside rapidly turned cold. He was only an Immortal Monarch, but because of his background, he did not take Jian Chen seriously at all despite being an Immortal Emperor.
Jian Chen said nothing.
Several seconds later, as if the person outside had received a new order, he said, “But that’s fine. The great elder of our Immortal Feather sect is in urgent need of your healing pills to recover. Just hand over ten of them to me. That way, I’ll be able to report back.”
