Chapter 3695: A Great Increase in Strength
Jian Chen smiled. He had planned on taking in the Immortal Sect of Alchemy Qi in the first place. Once they joined the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, they could provide the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens with a steady supply of pills.
Now that Dan Chenzi had proactively offered up his allegiance, he was obviously overjoyed. Why would he decline?
As a result, Jian Chen agreed to Dan Chenzhi’s request very happily before making him assemble all of the disciples of the Immortal Sect of Alchemy Qi.
By now, all of the formations around the entire pavilion had been destroyed, so the disciples of the Immortal Sect of Alchemy Qi imprisoned there had obviously been freed.
Once Dan Chenzi summoned them, the remaining disciples of the Immortal Sect of Alchemy Qi all gathered on the third floor.
Even the weakest of these disciples were Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals. There were over five hundred of them in total.
There were around twenty Immortal Monarchs!
As for Immortal Emperors, there was only Dan Chenzi!
After suffering from the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants’ exploitations, everyone was in a weakened state. Their faces were all haggard and waxy.
As soon as they arrived on the third floor, they all looked at Jian Chen in suspicion and curiosity.
“Sect master, what is going on? And what happened inside the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants?” One of the Immortal Monarchs clasped his fist at Dan Chenzi.
“I’ll tell you a little later. Let me introduce this senior to you first. He is…” Right when Dan Chenzi was about to introduce Jian Chen to everyone, he halted and became rather awkward.
He still did not know how to refer to Jian Chen!
Jian Chen smiled gently and slowly glanced past the several hundred people present. “I am Jian Chen. From today onwards, I am your sect master!”
When Jian Chen said that, all of the disciples of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants were startled. Some people even struggled to hide their anger.
Dan Chenzi seemed to be afraid of the disciples offending Jian Chen rashly, so he said in a hurry, “What sect master Jian Chen has said is correct. From today onwards, I will no longer be the sect master of the Immortal Sect of Alchemy Qi. The Immortal Sect of Alchemy Qi will be disbanded. I hope that all the disciples of the sect will join the sect that sect master Jian Chen is from and obey his command!”
“You must not do this, sect master.”
“Sect master, our Immortal Sect of Alchemy Qi can be considered a large sect with a lengthy history no matter what. How can you dissolve it just like this?”
“Please reconsider, sect master.”
......
…
As soon as Dan Chenzi said that, the Immortal Monarchs spoke up one after another to try and persuade him otherwise. Some of these people had already developed the view that the sect was their final place of belonging. They viewed it even more importantly than their lives. They did not wish to see the sect perish like this.
Dan Chenzi’s gaze was determined. “Everyone, the formations around the Pavilion of Alchemy have already been destroyed. You’re welcome to check the situation of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants outside with the senses of your souls!”
When they heard that, the Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals and Immortal Monarchs all released the senses of their souls. When they saw the current state of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, all of them were stunned.
“You’ve seen it for yourself now. The Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants has already been destroyed. All of the Immortal Emperor great elders have perished. This is all due to sect master Jian Chen. It’s sect master Jian Chen who has saved us.”
“However, the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants may have been massacred, but their Immortal Exalt ancestors still live. Once their ancestors return, do you think our Immortal Sect of Alchemy Qi still has a purpose to remain any further? Under their rage, the Immortal Exalt ancestors will definitely annihilate everyone here.”
“As a result, the only path available to us now is to seek sect master Jian Chen’s protection. Since sect master Jian Chen is bold enough to destroy the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, he obviously doesn’t fear the retribution of the Immortal Exalt ancestors.”
“If we want to keep on living, we have no other choice.”
Dan Chenzi’s words silenced all of the disciples of the Immortal Sect of Alchemy Qi.
After a good while, a Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal disciple said fearfully, “Sect master, if he continues to enslave us like the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, wouldn’t we have to continue with this life where we’re better off dead?”
His concerns immediately resonated with everyone present. They had been enslaved for far too long. It almost left behind a permanent mark of fear in them. They were extremely worried about something similar occurring.
Jian Chen smiled gently and said, “You don’t have to worry about this. Once you join my sect, you will all receive the treatment of core disciples with your strength. If you are an Immortal Monarch, you will be an elder of the sect and enjoy significant status. Immortal Emperors will become great elders and will be able to partake in the important decision-making of the sect.”
Reaching there, Jian Chen continued, “Of course, I know that many of you here don’t believe what I’ve said. As a result, I’ve decided to show you my sect right now.”
With that, Jian Chen took out a low quality divine hall. He let all the disciples of the Immortal Sect of Alchemy Qi into the low quality divine hall before tossing the divine hall into the Primeval Divine Hall.
Very soon, the disciples of the Immortal Sect of Alchemy Qi appeared in the Primeval Divine Hall with Dan Chenzi. Standing before them was a majestic entrance.
“The Sword Sect of Violet Heavens…”
When they saw the five fancy words on top of the entrance, all of the disciples of the Immortal Sect of Alchemy Qi were dumbfounded. Even Dan Chenzi became dazed.
Even though the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens had already declined, who in the Immortals’ World had not heard of them before?
“Sect master, w-w-which Sword Sect of Violet Heavens is this?” Gazing at the name of the sect, Dan Chenzi only felt jittery. He had strong suspicions that someone had treacherously taken the same name as the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens for their sect.
But upon closer thought, just who was bold enough to do that!
After all, that came with tremendous consequences. It was connected to far too many things.
“Apart from the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens that stands in the Sword Region of Violet Heavens of the Reverent Observance Heaven, there is no second Sword Sect of Violet Heavens in the Immortals’ World!” Jian Chen gazed at the entrance in a daze. The entrance was countless times more majestic than before. There was basically no comparison to be made.
Vaguely, through the tall and grand entrance, he seemed to witness the past glory of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.
Afterwards, under Jian Chen’s explanations, the disciples of the Immortal Sect of Alchemy Qi finally understood what kind of sect they would be joining. Various emotions immediately became plastered over their faces. There was joy, surprise, disbelief, and so on.
“The Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. It’s actually the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. Our Immortal Sect of Alchemy Qi has actually joined the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. We’ve become disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens…” Dan Chenzi was also filled with mixed feelings. He was familiar with the glorious history of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, but he also knew about the sect’s decline and the danger that came with it.
“Sect master, has your decision taken the disciples of our Immortal Sect of Alchemy Qi to heaven or has it plunged us into hell?” an Immortal Monarch asked Dan Chenzi in a daze.
“Whether it’s heaven or hell, at least it’s better than the days we spent in the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. Since we’ve joined the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, then let us bear the karmic fortune of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens together. From today onwards, we will prosper and decline with the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.” Dan Chenzi accepted his fate.
Afterwards, Jian Chen gathered the important disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens and formally announced that the Immortal Sect of Alchemy Qi would be joining the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.
The Immortal Sect of Alchemy Qi had been dissolved as a sect, and a Hall of Alchemy had been founded in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. All of the disciples of the Immortal Sect of Alchemy Qi joined the Hall of Alchemy, while Dan Chenzi served as the hall leader.
At the same time, Dan Chenzi also became a great elder of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, while all the Immortal Monarchs under his command became elders.
Having suddenly gained an Immortal Emperor and around twenty Immortal Monarchs, the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens’ strength immediately increased substantially.
Afterwards, Jian Chen let out fifteen people from another divine hall. These fifteen people were all experts he had saved from the forbidden ground in the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. There were seven Immortal Emperors and eight Immortal Monarchs.
“What? We’ve joined the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens?”
“We’re done for. Out of the frying pan and into the fire. We’re not going to be able to live for much longer.”
“None of the experts of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens are able to live for long. I don’t know when it’ll be our turn.”
Upon learning they had joined the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, the fifteen experts all responded with extremely interesting expressions.
Jian Chen settled the fifteen experts into the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. They temporarily bore the title of elder and great elder.
However, these fifteen people only bore a title in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. They temporarily would not possess any actual authority.
