However, it was exactly because of his appearance that Lin Sui had been frightened out of his wits. A chill ran down from his neck all the way to the bottom of his spine.
This person had actually appeared behind him without alerting anyone. If he had not chosen to speak out, he would not know about his presence even now. If he had launched a sudden sneak attack, the consequences would be unthinkable.
“W-who are you? Why have you intruded upon my secret room?” Lin Sui roared out furiously in utter shock. When he had only said half of that, he directly smashed his way out of the secret room in a violent fashion. His cultivation as a Fifth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor erupted, alarming the surroundings as he flew outside as quickly as he could.
“Enemy attack! An expert has infiltrated the Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals!” Lin Sui called out. Great sound waves rolled out like thunder, reaching across the entire Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals instantly.
Immediately, various presences erupted throughout the Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals. Five figures immediately appeared beside great elder Lin Sui.
They were the five elders who had separated just now!
“Lin Sui, what’s going on?” one of the great elders asked with furrowed eyebrows. He had already enveloped the surroundings with the senses of his soul, but he discovered nothing strange.
Lin Sui pointed in the direction of his dwelling in a shaken manner. He said extremely sternly, “Someone has infiltrated my dwelling!”
The five other elders all glanced towards Lin Sui’s dwelling.
Jian Chen stood in Lin Sui’s destroyed dwelling, clad in the Divine Armour of Heavenflight. He looked at the six great elders of the Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals from afar.
Shortly afterwards, he took a step and immediately vanished. When he appeared again, he was already floating silently before the six great elders.
Among the six Immortal Emperors, the strongest had reached the Sixth Heavenly Layer.
Seeing how Jian Chen had silently appeared, the expressions of the five other Immortal Emperors of the Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals all changed.
They were the same as Lin Sui. They were unable to sense the person before them at all. They could only see him with their eyes. If they shut their eyes, he would vanish from their senses entirely.
“A high quality god artifact!” Suddenly, the great elders’ eyes narrowed and became fixated on the Divine Armour of Heavenflight on Jian Chen. With their insight, they immediately recognised the quality of the Divine Armour of Heavenflight.
Under normal circumstances, high quality god artifacts were the symbols of Immortal Exalts. Even some Immortal Exalts who had only broken through recently did not possess them.
Even the Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals that made it into the ranks of the peak organisations on the Grand Sovereign Heaven only possessed one high quality god artifact. It was wielded by the Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt ancestor of the sect.
As soon as they recognised the god artifact’s quality, the hearts of the great elders sank.
“Senior, may I ask how our Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals has offended you in any way? Please enlighten us to the misunderstanding,” the Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor said sternly among the six great elders. He subconsciously treated Jian Chen as an Immortal Exalt.
He possessed a high quality god artifact, he could erase his presence flawlessly, and he could infiltrate the Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals without raising any attention. Even when he faced six Immortal Emperors right now, he was unfazed. All of these signs pointed to the possibility that he was an Immortal Exalt.
Even if he was not an Immortal Exalt, the Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals still refused to offend him so easily before they had understood his exact strength and identity.
Jian Chen stared straight at Lin Sui and said coldly, “In the past, you used your curses in the Immortal Region of Green Plains and cursed several thousand disciples and an Immortal Emperor from a sect to death. Do you still remember this?”
The five other great elders of the Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals all looked towards Lin Sui.
“Fellow Lin, did this really happen?” the Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor asked.
Lin Sui paled. He ignored the great elder and stared at Jian Chen with a frightening light in his eyes. He blurted out, “You’re the person who destroyed the three organisations from the Immortal Region of Green Plains, as well as the murderer of all those experts from the Sword Sect of Flowing Light, the Immortal Sect of Heaven’s Union, and the Immortal Sect of Great Peace?”
The five elders of the Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals immediately shuddered inside at that. They stared at Jian Chen in shock. Just recently, they had carried out a discussion regarding this. They all developed qualms about the mysterious expert who had destroyed several organisations consecutively.
They never expected the mysterious figure to appear before them so quickly.
“Oh no, quick, contact the ancestor. This person could even kill the Dark Sword Ancestor from the Sword Sect of Flowing Light. We can only ask the ancestor for help against someone like that.”
“Don’t worry. The ancestor may spend all his time in secluded cultivation, but everything that happens in the Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals, whether big or small, is within his senses. When it truly matters, the ancestor will appear.”
After learning about Jian Chen’s identity, the great elders of the Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals all communicated with one another like they were about to face a powerful enemy.
“I did indeed destroy the Immortal Sect of Luofu, the Immortal Sect of Yuqing, and the Immortal Sect of White Clouds, and all the Immortal Monarchs and Immortal Emperors from the Immortal Sect of Great Peace, the Immortal Sect of Heaven’s Union, and the Sword Sect of Flowing Light did die by my hand,” Jian Chen said slowly.
When the great elders heard that, they all backed away subconsciously in fear.
The six sects had over ten Immortal Emperors in total. If they disregarded any Immortal Exalts, the strength of the six organisations combined had completely surpassed their Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals.
Since this person could even destroy the six organisations, did that not mean he possessed the strength to overturn their Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals?
Jian Chen continued, “The reason why I moved against them was because they were after the legacy inside the divine hall. They were also the people responsible for the owner of the divine hall’s death.”
“I’ve come to your Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals because one of your great elders cursed the immortals in the divine hall to their deaths. On top of that, the number of people who died by the great elder’s hand is even more than the people killed by the Immortal Sect of Luofu, the Immortal Sect of Yuqing, and the Immortal Sect of White Clouds combined.”
“As a result, Immortal Emperor Lin Sui, you’re next.”
What Jian Chen said at the very end made Lin Sui’s face become as ugly as it could get. The five remaining great elders became unprecedentedly stern as well.
“Hahahahahaha!”
At this moment, laughter rang out from the depths of the Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals. The terrifying sound waves even shook up the mountains. Together with the laugh, the powerful presence of a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor immediately appeared.
“Sir, if you really were an Immortal Exalt, you would possess some right to talk to our Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals like that. However, as a mere mid Immortal Emperor, even if you have an Immortal Devouring Orchid on par with Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperors, it’s still nowhere near enough if you’re thinking about killing a great elder of the Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals, even if it does leave us wary,“ the elderly voice rang out again. A ruddy, sagely old man appeared in the distance. With a step, he appeared before the six great elders like he had teleported.
“Great elder Jue, you’ve emerged?”
The old man’s appearance reinvigorated the six great elders of the Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals.
Jue Wenxian was a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor, as well as the leader of the eight great elders of the Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals!
In particular, when they heard what Jue Wenxian had said, the great elders all sighed in relief.
He was not an Immortal Exalt and only an Immortal Emperor? And an Immortal Devouring Orchid that was only at the Ninth Heavenly Layer of Immortal Emperor?
A combination like that was very powerful and brought great pressure to the Daoist Sect of Soaring Immortals, but it was not enough to shake them!
