Chapter 3786: Visitor from the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment


    Jing Feng was not unfamiliar with the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment. After all, it was a supreme organisation that ranked second on the Hall Brilliance Heaven.


    Now, a great elder of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment was personally visiting Jian Chen. If this had urred before the appraisal fair, Jing Feng would definitely be very shocked.


    But after experiencing the events of the appraisal fair, Jing Feng had already grown numb. Even the city lord of the Immortal Rising City, a mighty Immortal Exalt, treated Jian Chen courteously. As such, it seemed rather normal now that a great elder of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment was visiting him.


    “Let him in,” Jian Chen said calmly.


    “Yes, senior!” Jing Feng epted the order and immediately backed down. By Jian Chen’s side, he seemed more like an old servant, specially handling some misceneous affairs for him.


    “Mumu, you should go as well. I’ll hold onto the Nine Limits Saint’s fortune for now. I’ll give it to you when you break through to Golden Immortal,” Jian Chen said to Jing Mumu after Jing Feng had left.


    “Alright, master. Then I’ll go and cultivate now!” Jing Mumu was ecstatic, running off happily.


    Soon after Jing Mumu had left, Jing Feng brought a ruddy old man over to Jian Chen.


    The old man studied Jian Chen first. Seeing howposed he was, without being overwhelmed by his presence, he finally seemed to confirm something inside. He sped his fist and bowed towards Jian Chen. “I am Xia Zhi. I am a great elder of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment. Greetings, senior!”Xia Zhi clearly failed to see through Jian Chen’s cultivation. Coupled with how Jian Chen was clearly unfazed by a great elder of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment, he subconsciously treated Jian Chen as a powerful Immortal Exalt.


    Such a person also happened to be the one he was looking for.


    “The two of us are both Immortal Emperors. I would be of the Sixth Heavenly Layer, while you’re at the Seventh Heavenly Layer. You’re clearly stronger than me, so I really can’t ept being called senior,” Jian Chen said calmly.


    When he heard that, the great elder of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment, Xia Zhi, was visibly taken aback. He subconsciously nced around and said inplete surprise, “Fellow, you’re actually an Immortal Emperor as well? May I ask if the master of this ce is currently present?”


    “I rented this courtyard. If you’re looking for the master of this ce, it should be very easy given the abilities and methods of your Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment,” Jian Chen said casually.


    “You tter us, fellow. The master I’m referring to is not the owner of this property.” Xia Zhi shook his head gently. He paused for a moment before continuing, “I’ll be honest. I’vee this time because I sensed the presence of the Energy-devouring Furnace through a secret treasure.”


    “The Energy-devouring Furnace is one of the treasures of our Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment. We cannot afford to lose it, which is why I specially came to investigate.”


    “The Energy-devouring Furnace? So you came for that thing. You should have told me sooner. It happens to be in my possession.” Jian Chen’s lips curled. Shortly afterwards, he reached out, and the Energy-devouring Furnace that had already shrunk to the size of a hand appeared in his palm.


    “Is it this?” Jian Chen looked at Xia Zhi with a faint smile.


    “The Energy-devouring Furnace! I-i-it’s actually in your possession?” Xia Zhi’s gaze was immediately drawn away by the Energy-devouring Furnace. His face was filled with surprise.


    Before he hade here, he had paid a visit to the city lord’s estate. He brought the will of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment with him, asking Immortal Exalt Tan Yu to return the Energy-devouring Furnace. However, he was told that the Energy-devouring Furnace was not in Immortal Exalt Tan Yu’s possession.


    Under Xia Zhi’s probings, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu made no attempt to hide it. He directly told him that the Energy-devouring Furnace had fallen into the hands of the saviour of the Immortal Rising City.


    Immortal Exalt Tan Yu did not disclose the saviour’s identity, but that could not stump the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment. They carried out a simple investigation. Coupled with the events of the appraisal fair, they locked onto this courtyard very quickly.


    In Xia Zhi’s eyes, the courtyard must have been hiding an extremely powerful Immortal Exalt who could easily kill the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master, which was why he behaved so courteously in the beginning.


    The Energy-devouring Furnace must have ended up in the hands of that Immortal Exalt as well.


    But right now, the Energy-devouring Furnace was in the possession of someone who imed to be an Immortal Emperor, whose strength was even beneath his own. That obviously left him stunned.


    The current events formed an extremely great contrast against his initial thoughts.


    “I don’t just have the Energy-devouring Furnace. I also have this.” As Jian Chen said that, another item appeared in his hand.


    It was a chain that glistened brightly, emanating with the ripples in space, giving off the might of a high quality god artifact.


    From the moment he epted the Energy-devouring Furnace from Immortal Exalt Tan Yu, he had agreed to bear the consequences of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment. Now that the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment hade knocking, there was obviously no need for Jian Chen to keep hiding. He had to make the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment turn their attention towards him.


    “Is that the Heaven-locking Chains? That’s actually in your possession too?” Xia Zhi was startled at first before bing overjoyed. He immediately eased up.


    His mission for setting out this time was to retrieve the two lost high quality god aritfacts of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment. Originally, he thought it would be an extremely difficult mission, one that he would struggle toplete. He had never imagined that he would locate the two god artifacts so quickly.


    That took him by surprise and left him overjoyed.


    “Fantastic. This is absolutely fantastic. I never thought that both of our lost high quality god artifacts would be with you.” Xia Zhi bowed deeply towards Jian Chen and said politely, “Fellow, may I ask what your demands are for our Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment to exchange these two items from you?”


    “You want to take these two high quality god artifacts back?” Jian Chen smiled slightly and said, “Get the ancestors of your Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment to discuss this with me personally.”


    When he heard that, Xia Zhi’s excitement gradually vanished. He furrowed his brows. “Fellow, as a great elder of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment, I still have some authority over certain matters. I do have the authority to decide this trifle.”


    “The value of these two high quality god artifacts are startling. Even some experts who have broken through to Immortal Exalt recently don’t possess anything thates close, yet in the eyes of an Immortal Emperor great elder, it’s instead a trifle. Don’t tell me the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment has already be that wealthy?”


    Xia Zhi’s politeness vanished. His voice gradually sank. “From what you’re implying, don’t tell me you want to take a bite out of us and rip us off viciously?”


    “I asked you to get the ancestors of your Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment to discuss this with me personally. Otherwise, you can forget about retrieving these two high quality god artifacts.” Jian Chen became slightly impatient. With a wave of his hand, the Energy-devouring Furnace and the Heaven-locking Chains vanished, having been stowed away again.


    Xia Zhi’s expression changed rapidly. The two lost high quality god artifacts of the sect were right in front of him. He was basically tempted to snatch them back immediately.


    However, when he recalled the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master’s fates, he had qualms. He did not dare to make trouble here.


    The person before him imed to be just a Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor. Xia Zhi obviously believed him, as he did not believe it was necessary to lie about that.


    However, standing behind this person was definitely an extremely powerful Immortal Exalt!


    After a series of deliberations, Xia Zhi suppressed his fury and sped his fist. “Fellow, since you want the ancestors of our Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment to discuss this with you personally, I’ll pass on the message. However, you still have to provide me with an exnation when the ancestors ask me about who you are.”


    “I am Yang Yutian. I don’t have a particrly powerful background. I’m only a wanderer who travels the Immortals’ World. Jing Feng, send him off!”
