Chapter 3649: Infiltrated by an Immortal Emperor

“Greetings, sect master!”

Shortly afterwards, all of the core disciples gathered in the hall stood up and bowed towards Jian Chen at the same time.

However, their gazes towards Jian Chen were all filled with surprise.

Despite so many people present, none of them had sensed how Jian Chen had entered.

“Sect master, y-y-you’ve reached Immortal Monarch?” At this moment, a core disciple beamed with joy and stared straight at Jian Chen.

The core disciples gathered in the hall finally sensed that Jian Chen’s presence no longer belonged to a Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal but an Immortal Monarch.

For a moment, many of the core disciples were overjoyed.

“Congratulations on breaking through successfully, sect master. From now onwards, our Sword Sect of Violet Heavens has gained another Immortal Monarch.”

“So the sect master was gone for a thousand years to break through to Immortal Monarch.”

Congratulations rang out in the Divine Hall of Violet Heavens endlessly.

Jian Chen smiled gently. The presence he gave off right now corresponded to the First Heavenly Layer of Immortal Monarch.

“You can all return now. I have my own decision in mind with regards to the sect formation.” Jian Chen told everyone.

Very soon, the people in the Divine Hall of Violet Heavens dispersed. Only elder Nong and Chen Shifang stayed behind.

“Elder Nong, elder Chen, what’s the deal with the additional Immortal Monarchs that have appeared in the sect?” Jian Chen looked at elder Nong and Chen Shifang.

“Sect master, during the years you were gone, a total of five Immortal Monarchs were drawn over here, wanting to join our Sword Sect of Violet Heavens and become elders of the sect,” said elder Nong.

“And you agreed?” Jian Chen looked at elder Nong.

Elder Nong shook his head. “If they were regular disciples, I might have agreed, but I did not have the courage to decide whether Immortal Monarchs could join or not. However, they showed so much sincerity, so I was unable to persuade them to leave. As a result, I could only have them temporarily remain in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens as guests so that you can decide whether they stay or leave once you returned.”

“Then tell the five of them to leave the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens right now, elder Nong,” Jian Chen said without a second thought.

“Yes, sect master!” Elder Nong did not ask for the reason. He immediately turned around and made his way out.

“Treat them with courtesy, but use force if you must. If you can’t ask them to leave, chase them away,” Jian Chen then added.

Elder Nong accepted the order.

“Sect master, do you suspect that there’s something wrong with these people?” Chen Shifang stood below with his fist clasped as he asked carefully.

Jian Chen sneered. “Regardless of whether there’s something wrong with them or not, we won’t accept any of them. However, one of these five Immortal Monarchs is an Immortal Emperor in disguise.”

“What! There’s an Immortal Emperor among them?” Chen Shifang was startled. His face sank.

Why would a mighty Immortal Emperor come to a sect as shabby as the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens to become an elder? As a result, when Jian Chen stated their cultivation, Chen Shifang immediately understood that this person was definitely hiding secrets.

At this moment, a stone hall stood quietly on the top of a mountain in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, abundant with spiritual Qi.

A hunched-back old woman levitated in the air with her legs crossed within the stone hall. She radiated with the presence of a Fourth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch.

At this moment, the old woman opened her eyes slowly. She looked outside the stone hall and said with a hoarse voice, “So it’s elder Nong! Please come in, elder Nong!”

The doors to the stone hall opened slowly, and Nong Fugui strode in from outside.

“You’ve truly flattered me with your personal visit, elder Nong. If there’s anything urgent, you were more than welcome to just send me a message, and I would have rushed over to the Divine Hall of Violet Heavens immediately,” the old woman said politely with a hint of respect.

Elder Nong stood before the old woman and clasped his fist. “Fellow Ru, the sect master has already returned. I’ve come this time to bring you his word.”

“Ah! The sect master has finally returned? Has the sect master permitted me to join the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens?” The old woman’s eyes lit up slightly.

Elder Nong shook his head and said, “I must apologise, fellow Ru. Our Sword Sect of Violet Heavens is not accepting any Immortal Monarchs for now, so please leave the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens immediately.”

The old woman’s face changed slightly, and she said with difficulty, “Elder Nong, I really do want to join the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, and I’ve already developed a liking for this place over the years. Please put in a good word for me with the sect master, elder Nong. I’m willing to offer up my strength to the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.”

“The sect master’s order cannot be defied. Fellow Ru, I really can’t assist you with this,” elder Nong said apologetically.

The old woman immediately became unsettled.

“Please, fellow Ru!” Elder Nong made another inviting gesture. Seeing how the old woman refused to move, he ran out of options and let out the stone golem that he carried around with him.

The stone golem was already filled with five-coloured immortal crystals. It radiated with the presence of an Immortal Emperor, which immediately made the old woman’s face become extremely sunken.

In the end, the old woman was forced to stand up and leave with an ugly expression.

The same thing occurred in various places throughout the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. In the blink of an eye, elder Nong had already visited four of the five Immortal Monarchs that wanted to join the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens over the years.

The four Immortal Monarchs were all politely “invited” to leave by elder Nong.

In the end, elder Nong arrived in the forbidden grounds in the back mountain of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, standing before the Immortal Devouring Orchid.

The Immortal Devouring Orchid had already become a source of stability for the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. It was respected by all the disciples.

The Immortal Devouring Orchid was rooted on a large boulder. A beautiful flower bloomed on the top of its stalk that was only three metres long.

It had erased its presence, so it seemed like a regular plant.

A middle-aged man in golden robes sat near the Immortal Devouring Orchid. His aura flowed as he inhaled spiritual Qi. He was clearly cultivating.

However, the cultivation method he practised was quite special. It was more closely related to plants, so as he cultivated, the presence he gave off could make all plants develop a sense of intimacy with him.

“Fellow Lin, our sect master has already returned. The sect master has said that our Sword Sect of Violet Heavens is not accepting any Immortal Monarch elders for the time being. Please leave, elder Lin.” Elder Nong arrived before the middle-aged man and clasped his fist.

The middle-aged man’s name was Lin Sen. He was a Third Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch.

When he heard that, Lin Sen opened his eyes and stared at elder Nong calmly. “Elder Nong, please tell your esteemed sect master that the cultivation method I practise can gather the pure essence of plants from the world, which is tremendously beneficial to all plants. If you have my assistance, your esteemed sect’s Immortal Devouring Orchid will overcome its shackles and reach Immortal Exalt very soon.”

Elder Nong was just about to speak up and refuse him when Jian Chen’s voice rang out of nowhere.

“That won’t be necessary. The Immortal Devouring Orchid doesn’t need your assistance to reach Immortal Exalt.”

With that, Jian Chen arrived before elder Nong with Chen Shifang.

Lin Sen’s eyes shone. He studied Jian Chen with a smear of surprise in the depths of his eyes.

He had failed to sense how Jian Chen had made his way over, but when he discovered Jian Chen’s presence was only at the First Heavenly Layer of Immortal Monarch, he immediately stopped worrying. He smiled gently like victory was within his grasp.

“Sect master, what brings you here?” Elder Nong bowed towards Jian Chen with a face full of respect.

“If I hadn’t come, you really would not have been able to ask him to leave,” Jian Chen smiled gently and said calmly.

When he heard that, elder Nong was immediately startled. The way he looked at Lin Sen immediately changed.

Not only did he have the stone golem on him, but he also had the Great Spatial Sword Formation. Both of these items could deal with Immortal Emperors, yet the sect master claimed that he still might not necessarily be able to get rid of this person even when he possessed these two treasures. Elder Nong immediately realised that Lin Sen definitely was not as simple as he seemed on the surface.
