Chapter 3544: Crushed by the Golem
“It was an Immortal Monarch called Yan Yun. He came to our Sword Sect of Violet Heavens and told us about your situation,” said elder Nong.
“Yan Yun?” Chen Shifang stiffened slightly when he heard that. He furrowed his brows and said sternly, “Impossible. Yan Yun doesn’t know my identity. I’ve always referred to myself as Zhu Jian during these years outside. I never divulged my identity as a disciple of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. There’s no reason for Yan Yun to know.”
A hint of surprise flashed through elder Nong’s eyes when he heard that, but he came up with a logical explanation very soon. “Chen Shifang, you probably couldn’t fool those experts of extremely high cultivation. Some of the peak experts who had been constantly paying attention to our Sword Sect of Violet Heavens have probably found out a long time ago. However, the experts who knew your identity probably leaned towards our side.”
“They did not divulge any information regarding you prematurely probably because our Sword Sect of Violet Heavens was far too weak. Even if you encountered danger, the sect would not be able to help you.”
“But it’s different now. Our Sword Sect of Violet Heavens has the trump cards left behind by the ancestor. We don’t even have to fear Immortal Monarchs. It’s already enough to deal with the problems you face right now, which is why the peak expert who knew your identity passed the news about you to the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens through Yan Yun.”
Afterwards, elder Nong gave Chen Shifang a rough explanation about everything that had happened in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens recently. Chen Shifang learnt about the powerful Immortal Devouring Orchid inside the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.
“The Immortal Sect of Sword Control, the Immortal Sect of Azures Foxes, the Immortal Sect of Three Yang, and the Immortal Sect of Scarlet Sunset have actually all been destroyed…” Chen Shifang was speechless.
The two of them had been communicating secretly the entire time. As such, the Immortal Monarch from the Hefty Sword clan that followed them did not know the contents of their conversation.
Very soon, elder Nong and Chen Shifang left the Observance Heaven City. As soon as they left the city gates, they turned into two streaks of light, flying towards the Sword Region of Violet Heavens.
However, right as they passed over a marsh, several dozen figures appeared out of nowhere, intercepting their path.
The five people at the front were all Immortal Monarchs, while the others were all Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal.
Neither elder Nong nor Chen Shifang were surprised by their appearance.
The middle-aged man that the Hefty Sword clan had sent to watch Chen Shifang flew over from behind them steadily as he sneered slightly.
“They’re all from the Hefty Sword clan!” Chen Shifang glanced around and said slightly sternly.
Including the middle-aged man, all six Immortal Monarchs of the Hefty Sword clan were present.
Two Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarchs!
A Seventh Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch!
Two Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarchs!
And a Third Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch!
“You’ve finally decided to leave the Observance Heaven City. Hmph, our Hefty Sword clan doesn’t care whether you’re Zhu Jian or Chen Shifang. We only have one demand. Hand it over, or today next year will be the anniversary of your death,” a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch old man said sternly.
With a flip of his hand, the jade bottle with Immortal Emperor Yunluo’s essence blood appeared in Chen Shifang’s hand. He scanned past the Immortal Monarchs from the Hefty Sword clan and said emotionlessly, “The essence blood was left behind by a senior of our sect. It holds extremely great significance to us. How can something so holy be blasphemed by the likes of you?”
“Hahahahaha, when you claim it was left behind by a senior of your sect, we’re just supposed to believe it? I can even say that it was left behind by an Immortal Emperor ancestor of our Hefty Sword clan. Cut the bullshit. Are you handing it over or not?” the Seventh Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch of the Hefty Sword clan said coldly.
They clearly treasured the Immortal Emperor’s essence blood that contained sword intent very much. After all, it was not particularly difficult to find an Immortal Emperor’s essence blood in the Immortals’ World, but that was all regular essence blood. An Immortal Emperor’s essence blood that contained sword intent was extremely rare.
Their Hefty Sword clan also walked the Way of the Sword. Now, two of their Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch ancestors were stuck at a bottleneck. They needed the Immortal Emperor’s essence blood that contained sword intent to increase their chances at breaking through.
As a result, from a certain perspective, the Immortal Emperor’s essence blood also influenced the fate of the entire Hefty Sword clan.
Once the Hefty Sword clan produced an Immortal Emperor, the status of the entire clan would rise as well.
At this moment, elder Nong grabbed the bottle and said, “We’ll be taking this back to the sect to enshrine, so we definitely can’t hand it over to you.”
“If that’s the case, you better not blame me then.” Killing intent flashed across the eyes of a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch. Shortly afterwards, without saying anything more, he took a step and appeared before elder Nong like he had teleported. Forming a sword with his fingers, he thrust them forwards with blinding light, directly attacking elder Nong like a bolt of lightning.
Chen Shifang’s expression changed. In the next moment, the presence of a Seventh Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch erupted from his body. Right when he was about to block the expert from the Hefty Sword clan, a stone golem silently appeared before elder Nong.
Boom!
The stone golem directly threw a punch. It was a simple punch, but it erupted with a startling presence. A terrifying force exploded from the punch, easily shattering the sword Qi around the fingers of the expert from the Hefty Sword clan.
The stone golem’s punch continued onwards, colliding against the Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch’s arm with devastating presence.
In the next moment, there was a howl. The old man from the Hefty Sword clan’s entire right arm was smashed to pieces, erupting as a cloud of blood in the air.
The sudden occurrence made the expressions of the other people from the Hefty Sword clan change drastically.
However, the stone golem did not stop. It continued with its attacks, throwing another direct punch that shot towards the expert’s head mercilessly with the terrifying power of an Immortal Emperor.
When it threw the punch, even the space around the punch cracked open, becoming riddled with web-like fractures.
The Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch’s expression changed drastically. Blood sprayed out from his right shoulder like a fountain, but at this moment, he no longer cared about his destroyed arm. He immediately equipped a low quality god artifact armour as quickly as possible. His energy as a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch erupted at full force, forming a thick layer of defence around him.
After doing all that, he retreated rapidly, pulling away from the stone golem as quickly as he could.
However, before the stone golem whose battle prowess could rival an Immortal Emperor’s, everything he did seemed futile. The stone golem’s punch pierced his energy defence before landing on the low quality god artifact armour swiftly.
Boom!
With a bang, his low quality god artifact armour immediately exploded, shooting into the surroundings as countless fragments.
