Chapter 3462: Underestimated

On the highest floor of Immortal Emperor Taihang’s divine hall, Jian Chen looked over slowly, gazing at the outside nonchalantly.

His gaze seemed to pass through all the obstacles, allowing him to directly see the situation outside.

At the same time, the Yuqing Immortal Emperor, the Luofu Immortal Emperor, and the Immortal Emperor of White Clouds beamed with joy. Clearly, they recognised the owners of the voices. Every single one of them was stronger than their trio. Now that experts from the other immortal regions had arrived, they seemed to see joy.

However, they soon realised something and became depressed again. The hint of hope that had appeared was immediately snuffed out.

They remembered Jian Chen’s strength. He was already very powerful. Afterwards, he had also obtained the Immortal-destroying Thunders that could heavily injure Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperors from them. He also had the Immortal Devouring Orchid of even greater strength.

Even if he actually faced off against the organisations outside, he would definitely still have the upper hand with such great strength and trump cards.

At the same time, an intense dispute rang out from above the Starfall mountains. The several dozen Immortal Monarchs from the three sects had no idea what had happened in the formations because the three Immortal Emperors hid everything for the sake of secrecy. As a result, only the three of them knew what had happened. The main purpose of all the experts they had brought with them was to maintain the formation, keeping it even more stable.

As a result, none of the Immortal Monarchs from the three organisations knew their Immortal Emperors were already captured. Right now, they were arguing against the organisations from the other immortal regions, doing their best to stop their entry and to buy some more time for their Immortal Emperors.

“Hmph, even the Immortal Emperors from your organisations can’t stop us from doing whatever we want, let alone you subordinates. All of you, piss off, or I won’t show any mercy.” The Immortal Emperor of Flowing Light struck. He was hidden in the mist above the mountains. A streak of light slashed down from the clouds, directly striking the formation below with a deafening rumble.

Boom!

With just a single attack, he had destroyed two of the formations over the Starfall mountains. The immortals who maintained the formation all fell out of the air, coughing up blood.

Their powers were already combined with the formations. Now that the formations were forcefully destroyed, they were obviously affected as well.

However, the Immortal Sect of Flowing Light was completely unconcerned with this. Their strength was clearly above the Immortal Region of Green Plains’, so he did not show any mercy when he struck. He was completely unconcerned about offending the three organisations.

“Listen up, people of the Immortal Sect of Yuqing, the Immortal Sect of White Clouds, and the Immortal Sect of Luofu. If you still don’t back down, I will kill without mercy,” the Immortal Emperor from the Immortal Sect of Great Peace spoke up as well. He also attacked the formation below, such that another two formations over the Starfall mountains were destroyed. The immortals maintaining the formations were all affected, becoming heavily injured.

In the end, the expert from the Immortal Sect of Heaven’s Union struck, destroying the last few formations.

With that, the formations over the Starfall mountains were completely destroyed. All the immortals from the three sects of the Immortal Region of Green Plains all received injuries of varying degrees.

Over a dozen streaks of lights flickered through the clouds, moving with extremely startling speed. They immediately shot into the divine hall inside the mausoleum.

Even though the Immortal Sect of Flowing Light had only brought around a dozen people, their lineup was extremely powerful. They were led by two Immortal Emperors, while the rest were Immortal Monarchs.

“Sure enough, the sword formation has vanished.” The Immortal Emperor from the Immortal Sect of Great Peace appeared. She was a middle-aged woman, possessing grace and an outstanding aura. There was a hint of joy in her cold eyes.

Shortly afterwards, she led over a dozen Immortal Monarchs from the Immortal Sect of Great Peace into the divine hall.

The Immortal Emperor from the Immortal Sect of Heaven’s Union entered the divine hall at the same time as the empress from the Immortal Sect of Great Peace with the experts under his command.

Even though the Immortal Sect of Heaven’s Union, the Immortal Sect of Great Peace, and the Immortal Sect of Flowing Light had not sent many people, they were all experts. Even the weakest was an Immortal Monarch.

They advanced through the divine hall and arrived before the remains of the several thousand disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens very soon. Looking at the corpses that had already been reduced to white bone, they all remained indifferent. They did not feel any particular emotion. They all seemed cold.

“I can already sense their presences. They’re at the very top. Quick, we need to take the legacies before them,” an Immortal Emperor from the Sword Sect of Flowing Light said.

“Hmph, what are you afraid of? We’ll just make them spit out the legacies again at most. If they refuse, then we’ll just kill them,” the empress of the Immortal Sect of Great Peace said coldly.

“According to our investigations over the years, the legacy here is anything but simple. It comes from a peak organisation that once lorded over the world. None of us can take a legacy like that completely for ourselves, so why don’t we work together instead?” The Immortal Emperor from the Immortal Sect of Heaven’s Union smiled as his eyes burned with undisguised interest.

“Just as I was thinking!” the empress from the Immortal Sect of Great Peace replied.

By the next moment, the four Immortal Emperors from the three organisations all arrived on the highest floor as quickly as they could.

As soon as they appeared there, the four of them all stiffened. Surprise filled their eyes.

All they saw was a young man standing with his back to them, but they were unable to tell what his strength was. However, the Yuqing Immortal Emperor, the Immortal Emperor of White Clouds, and the Luofu Immortal Emperor knelt on the ground before the young man, in front of the remains of an Immortal Emperor filled with the power of curses.

Their situation immediately made all the experts from the three organisations that had arrived here afterwards narrow their eyes.

The situation was clearly beyond all of their expectations.

“More people? Have you also come for the legacy of this place?” Jian Chen turned around slowly, staring at the four Immortal Emperors behind him.

The four Immortal Emperors from the three sects gradually became stern because they could not sense Jian Chen’s presence at all. They could not tell what his strength was either.

The four Immortal Emperors all felt an ill omen. Was he really so powerful that his strength was beyond what they could detect?

“We’ll tell you whether we’ve come for the legacy here after you withstand an attack from me.” An Immortal Emperor from the Sword Sect of Flowing Light snorted coldly. He appeared silently behind Jian Chen with a god artifact sword in hand.

He was an Eighth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor. Coupled with the medium quality god artifact sword in his hand, he was extremely powerful. With a thrust, he pierced through space, and the white light left a series of white marks on the surrounding walls.

The souls of the Luofu Immortal Emperor, the Yuqing Immortal Emperor, and the Immortal Emperor of White Clouds immediately began to tremble. The sword intent from an Eighth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor made them feel like they were being pricked by needles. Heart-wrenching pain filled their souls.

Jian Chen stood in front of Immortal Emperor Taihang’s corpse, blocking it with his body so that it was not impacted by the sword Qi. Afterwards, he condensed a sword, and the Laws of the Sword and the Laws of Space descended at the same time, turning into sword Qi that he thrust out with lightning speed.

Boom!

A great rumble rang out in the divine hall. Jian Chen’s sword Qi shattered from the attack, and the Immortal Emperor from the Sword Sect of Flowing Light left a bone-deep injury on Jian Chen’s arm.

“A Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor? Hahaha, there’s nothing impressive about your strength, yet you still try to act so mysteriously.” The Immortal Emperor from the Sword Sect of Flowing Light laughed aloud. After probing him out, he did not continue with his attacks, instead turning around and returning.

“Fellow, you sure are good at deceiving us, intentionally hiding your presence and cultivation so that we can’t tell. We even thought you were an Immortal Exalt before this.” The other Immortal Emperor from the Sword Sect of Flowing Light let out a sigh of relief and ridiculed him.

He was a Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor. He was not as powerful as the Immortal Emperor who had just attacked, but he was still stronger than the three other Immortal Emperors that Jian Chen had reduced to souls.

“Hahaha, you sure know how to scare us, fellow. Though, when I first saw you, I really was frightened by you. The Luofu Immortal Emperor, the Yuqing Immortal Emperor, and the Immortal Emperor of White Clouds’ fate as well as your unfazed demeanour truly does resemble an Immortal Exalt’s. You left me wondering about how I was supposed to retreat. In the end, I didn’t expect you to only be a Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor.” The empress from the Immortal Sect of Great Peace giggled. All of her worries vanished.

“Sir, you better keep these jokes to a minimum. Without true strength, these jokes can end up killing people,” the Immortal Emperor from the Immortal Sect of Heaven’s Union said with a darkened face. When he recalled how he had actually been frightened by someone weaker than him, he choked up in anger.
