C.3493: The Jiang Family of the Polar Jade Heaven

After contacting Jian Chen and Jiang Nan, Jin Sang took his leave and continued to the place where the next auxiliary stayed.

Originally, it was completely possible for him to instantly contact everyone through the senses of his soul given his cultivation.

However, in order to express sufficient respect and formality towards each auxiliary, Jin Sang chose to visit and inform them verbally.

“It hasn’t left me satisfied, but you still have told me the trick involved after all. I am a man of my word, so this God Tier Immortal Technique is yours, fellow Jian Chen,” Jiang Nan left behind the jade slip and said extremely generously inside the wooden hut.

“You give away God Tier Immortal Techniques without even batting an eye. Fellow Jiang Na truly is extravagant. Looks like fellow Jiang Nan is not from any ordinary organisation.” Jian Chen mentioned casually.

When he heard that, Jiang Nan immediately became slightly proud. “I’m from the Jiang family of the Polar Jade Heaven. The leader of the Jiang family is my father.”

“So brother Jiang Nan is the young master of the Jiang family. I apologise for failing to recognise you!” Jian Chen immediately cupped his fist. In reality, he had never heard of the Jiang family of the Polar Jade Heaven before.

“The current city lord of the Observance Heaven city is one of my great-grandfathers too!” Jiang Nan continued with a face filled with pride.

When he heard that, Jian Chen immediately shuddered inside. The way he looked at Jiang Nan changed.

He did not know about the Jiang family of the Polar Jade Heaven, but the lord of the Observance Heaven city was anything but insignificant.

Even though there was a new city lord every ten thousand years, he had learnt from the sword spirits that even the weakest lord of the Observance Heaven city was a Seventh Heavenly Layer Grand Prime.

The lord of the Observance Heaven city was a role desired across the entire Immortals’ World. Anyone could participate and compete for it. Once they became the lord of the Observance Heaven city, they would earn the right to enter the Observance Heaven city’s secret land to cultivate.

Ten thousand years were not enough for people of that realm to break through immediately, but they could still make major progress or even gain an entirely new comprehension.

As a matter of fact, there were many experts in history who were stuck at a bottleneck who used their time as the lord of the Observance Heaven city to breakthrough and advance their cultivations.

That was why everyone in the Immortals’ World wanted to become the lord of the Observance Heaven city. Whenever it was time to choose a new city lord, many experts would be drawn over. After several rounds of elimination, the final victor would obviously be the best of the best.

The Jiang family that Jiang Nan came from actually had an expert who was at least a Seventh Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt. An organisation like that was enough to be regarded as a tremendous entity.

“I didn’t think that fellow Jiang Nan’s background would be so impressive. However, there is something that perplexes me. Since you possess such a great background, why have you come to the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens to serve as a mere auxiliary? The conditions that the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens has offered don’t seem particularly tempting, particularly for fellow Jiang Nan,” Jian Chen asked.

“What the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens offers obviously does not interest me. Let alone the letters of Immortal Emperors, if the need really arises in our Jiang family, I can even get Immortal Emperors to personally explain the ways to you. How can mere letters of Immortal Emperors compare to that?”

“However, I grew up listening to the seniors of my clan talking about just how great and glorious the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens had been in the past. I had developed a yearning for it a long time ago. Coupled with the mission that the seniors in my clan gave me, I chose to come to the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens,” answered Jiang Nan.

“Mission?” Jian Chen was intrigued.

“Yeah, a training mission. I need to break through to Immortal Monarch in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. I won’t be returning to the clan until I become an Immortal Monarch!” Jiang Nan did not hide anything and told him the truth.

“Alright, I’ve already said enough. However, fellow Jian Cheng, there is something about you that I don’t understand. Which organisation do you belong to?” Jiang Nan stared at Jian Chen in interest.

“I’ll be honest, I used to roam the Immortals’ World as an independent cultivator. However, I ended up taking a senior on as my master, which is why I have my current accomplishments.” Jian Chen avoided the topic of the Saints’ World cleverly and only mentioned his experiences in the Immortals’ World.

It was obviously impossible for Jiang Nan to think that Jian Chen came from the Saints’ World, so he did not notice that Jian Chen was trying to hide something. “May I ask who your master is?”

“My master has said that before I become accomplished enough, I can’t divulge anything about him!” Jian Chen said in a seemingly troubled manner.

......

…

Afterwards, the two of them conversed for a little longer before Jiang Nan left Jian Chen’s place of cultivation.

After Jiang Nan’s departure, many more auxiliaries and even some core disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens visited Jian Chen.

The strength that Jian Chen had demonstrated in the ring earlier was far too great. He instantly used a God Tier Battle Skill to heavily injure the Lightning Master who was similarly powerful, which immediately made him stand out the most among all the auxiliaries. As a result, many people came to befriend him.

In short, in just three days, Jian Chen had met over half of the Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, not only including the core disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens but also auxiliaries both old and new.

“Apart from the twenty Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals recruited this time, almost half of the Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens are auxiliaries. There are only around twenty core disciples that truly belong to the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.”

The Sword Sect of Violet Heavens’ current strength made Jian Chen sigh.

In the blink of an eye, the three days had passed. All the core disciples and the auxiliaries gathered on the main peak.

The sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens stood before them with his hand behind his back, facing them. He radiated with the presence of a First Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch.

By his side was an old man in coarse clothes. He seemed extremely elderly, such that his face was covered in wrinkles. His white hair was thin like disheveled grass, falling onto his shoulders messily like they had run out of life.

During these past three days in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, Jian Chen had already investigated the old man’s identity.

His name was Nong Fugui and people revered him as elder Nong. He was a Third Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch, as well as the oldest and strongest person in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.

On top of that, elder Nong was someone who had personally experienced the height of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, the period of time when it was most glorious.

He was also the only disciple of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens who had survived from the peak until now.

“After over three million years of cultivation, he’s only reached the Third Heavenly Layer of Immortal Monarch. Talent like that is extremely ordinary. Perhaps it’s exactly because of how ordinary Nong Fugui is that he was not targeted by those organisations, becoming the disciple who lived the longest in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.” Jian Chen sighed inside as he looked at Nong Fugui who was dressed like a farmer beside the sect master.
