Chaotic Sword God Chapter 3977: Within the Sect

Following his departure from the peak level of the Primeval Divine Hall, Jian Chen made his way to the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. Upon setting foot in this sanctuary-like domain, a sense of tranquility washed over him.

The Sword Sect of Violet Heavens had flourished into a scene of greater beauty than before. Spiritual avians soared through the heavens while majestic beasts wandered the rugged mountain slopes. Their periodic cries resonated across the landscape, imbuing the entire realm with a palpable sense of vitality.

The concentration of Spiritual Qi within the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens was exceptionally dense. While it did not rival the Skyscraping World, it remained more than adequate to sustain the requirements of every disciple within the Sect.

It had been an extended duration since Jian Chen wandered through the grounds of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. On this occasion, he strolled leisurely, adopting the perspective of a mere wanderer. Eschewing his soul’s sensory reach, he relied solely upon his vision to witness the world, traversing mountains and meandering rivers alike.

As he passed the various cultivation sites belonging to the sect’s disciples, he observed individuals of varying mastery levels seated within their chambers, absorbed in their Cultivation progression.

He also observed clusters of disciples, gathered in groups of three or five, engaged in spirited sparring matches or engrossed in intense dialogue, exchanging the fruits of their insight.

Observing the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens throughout his journey, Jian Chen noted how the atmosphere teemed with vigor. It resembled the dawn of a rising sun, steadily ascending in strength and brilliance with every passing moment.

Although the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens remained severed from the outside world, confined within a fully sealed dimension, Jian Chen detected no trace of despondency among the disciples.

It appeared as though the isolation of their environment held no weight for these disciples. Everyone dedicated themselves to intense Cultivation, greedily drawing upon the world’s Spiritual Qi with an expression of pure, unadulterated delight.

A significant portion of these disciples had navigated the more arduous eras of the sect, a time marred by thin Spiritual Qi and a scarcity of resources. In those days, even basic Cultivation had been considered an extravagant luxury.

Today, they possessed an endless supply of resources, frequently supplemented by an abundance of heavenly materials and pills. This represented an era many disciples had once dared only to dream of.

Without exception, every disciple of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens felt profound contentment regarding the present state of the sect.

After navigating past numerous peaks shrouded in ambient Spiritual Qi, Jian Chen arrived at the central main peak in short order.

No longer accessible to ordinary disciples, the main peak stood in profound silence. Only the Divine Hall of Violet Heavens, a vessel embodying the majesty of the entire sect, rested there in quiet dignity.

This had served as the former residence of the sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. Despite Jian Chen’s infrequent visits, its sanctity within the sect remained inviolable.

Two Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals sat stationed by the entrance with legs crossed, maintaining a solemn vigil.

Jian Chen recognized the pair immediately. They had once been core disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens holding significant status, yet now they were entrusted with the guardianship of the Divine Hall of Violet Heavens.

“Possessing such a superior cultivation environment, yet choosing to guard a vacant structure—are you not squandering your time? There is no requirement for a guard here. You may return to your personal cultivation,” Jian Chen remarked, revealing himself to them.

“S-sect master!” Stunned by the sudden emergence of Jian Chen, the two Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals were rattled. They hurriedly rose to their feet and offered a respectful bow.

In their recollection, ever since the rebirth of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens from the flames, the sect master’s presence had been ethereal. Sightings were incredibly rare.

Now, after the passage of so many years, seeing Jian Chen once again left them visibly moved and filled with indescribable joy.

Over the years, Jian Chen had ascended to a status akin to a deity in the hearts of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens’ disciples, a reality vastly different from their time on the Reverent Observance Heaven.

“Sect master, the Divine Hall of Violet Heavens serves as the sacred heart of our sect. How could such a vital location remain without a sentry? We guard not merely the Divine Hall of Violet Heavens, but the prestige of our Sword Sect of Violet Heavens itself!”

“To be entrusted with guarding the Divine Hall of Violet Heavens is our greatest honor. Please, permit us to retain this duty. We shall not falter. We will commit our every effort…” the two Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals stated with reverence.

Faced with the earnest gazes of the two Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals, Jian Chen could not bear to dampen their spirits, so he offered no further objection and allowed them to continue their vigil.

Jian Chen did not venture into the Divine Hall of Violet Heavens. Just as he prepared to depart from the main peak, a complex, alchemical fragrance drifted toward him. Turning his attention toward the scent, Jian Chen vanished in an instant.

Upon his next appearance, he found himself elsewhere. Several figures clustered around a massive cauldron, from which the pungent aroma of medicinal pills billowed incessantly.

The group comprised Dan Chenzi of the Hall of Alchemy, Lin Sen of the Divine Wood clan, and several Immortal Emperors whom Jian Chen had previously delivered from the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.

The nine Immortal Emperors stood surrounding the cauldron, laughing and conversing with one another. Their camaraderie appeared quite strong.

“The Spirit Transformation pills near completion. Dan Chenzi, have you finally deduced the method?”

“Dan Chenzi, we have seven witnesses to your wager. Per the agreed terms, you are obligated to provide three mid-grade God Tier pills to each of us, alongside handing over the mid-grade God Tier pill formula to Lin Sen…”

“Hahaha, the Hall of Alchemy is easily the most affluent branch of our sect. Dan Chenzi, this may prove to be a costly endeavor for you…”

“Let me ponder this. Dan Chenzi, should you face defeat, ensure the three mid-grade God Tier pills you provide are suited for recovering cultivation. Our work with the divine formation is taxing, and we must remain fully prepared so we don’t jeopardize the collective when the critical moment arrives…”

The seven Immortal Emperors Jian Chen had rescued from the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants beamed with amusement. The individual currently handling the pill refinement was not Dan Chenzi, but Lin Sen of the Divine Wood clan.

Before the vast cauldron, Dan Chenzi, leader of the Hall of Alchemy, looked earnest. His eyes remained fixed upon the flame-engulfed cauldron. Gradually, his expression shifted to one of reluctant dismissal as he let out a sigh.

The pills within the cauldron appeared perfected. Lin Sen executed a final hand seal and struck the vessel. With a sudden boom, flames erupted as the lid ascended, allowing nine spherical pills to emerge, which Lin Sen caught in one practiced movement.

Observing the nine pills, a trace of fatigue touched Lin Sen’s features. After carefully securing the pills within a jade phial, he looked toward Dan Chenzi with a smirk. “Have you grasped the refinement process of the Spirit Transformation pills yet?”

A flash of realization passed through Dan Chenzi’s eyes before he sighed softly. “You spoke true. Those outside our clan are truly incapable of refining Spirit Transformation pills. It seems there are unique requirements for this process. Our Hall of Alchemy lacks these fundamental conditions.”

“Hahaha, Dan Chenzi, you were delusional to believe you could usurp my value to the senior daemon flower. Within our Divine Wood clan alone, I remain the sole practitioner capable of refining Spirit Transformation pills of this caliber,” Lin Sen declared with laughter.

“A loss is a loss. Dan Chenzi, provide the pills you owe us…”

“Hahaha, serving as a witness to this bet has been most lucrative. I have secured three mid-grade God Tier pills with minimal effort…”

The Immortal Emperors pressured him lightheartedly, clearly in high spirits.
