C2546 CHAPTER2546
In recent days, the area outside the sect had become a gathering point for nearly a hundred of these ambitious young elites. However, they found themselves stymied by the sect's formidable sword array, which barred their entry, leaving them no choice but to wait outside with a mix of anticipation and frustration.
At the forefront of the group stood a scholarly young man clad in a green Daoist robe. His face betrayed his impatience as he addressed a sword cultivator beside him with a barely concealed sneer.
"Stephen Jian, what's the deal with your Primordius Sword Sect? You call us here claiming that some outer universe prodigy has breached your defenses, asking for our aid. So why haven't you deactivated the sword array to let us in?"
The speaker was none other than the renowned Quasi-Grand Celestial Mu Qingxuan from the Taiyi Immortal Sect, famed for his prowess and once ranked alongside Yuan Tian Lake among the top geniuses of the Ten Great Immortal Sects.
"Exactly, Yuwen Jian. If you're asking for our assistance, stop wasting our time. Open up and let us into the Primordius Sword Sect," another voice chimed in, echoing Mu Qingxuan's sentiment.
The gathered elites had not come solely out of a desire to help; each harbored their own motives and schemes. The Chaos Origin Sword Sect, after all, was the pinnacle of power in the Immortal Shattering Universe, with resources that were the envy of all.
Yet, despite their covetous desires, the sect's supreme sword array remained an insurmountable barrier. Only the sect's own disciples had the means to activate the array, leaving the hopeful prodigies from other factions helplessly on the outside looking in.
This was precisely why the young prodigies from other factions had no opportunity to encroach upon the resources of the Hunyuan Sword Sect.
This time, however, a mysterious genius from an outer universe had infiltrated the Chaos Origin Sword Sect, prompting them to seek assistance. To many, this presented an excellent chance.
Their primary motive for offering help to the Primordius Sword Sect was to gain access and secure some of its resources for themselves.
But now, they found themselves waiting on the Primordius Sword Sect. How could they be content with that?
"Brother Mu, it's not that I don't want to grant you access to the Chaos Origin Sword Sect, but I simply don't have the authority to do so," Stephen Jian said with a rueful chuckle. "The Primordius Sword Sect's grand protective war array can only be activated by the elders in charge. Furthermore, only the core disciples have the freedom to come and go as they please."
"If you're unable to grant us entry into the Primordius Sword Sect, why summon us here at all? Isn't this just a waste of our time?" Mu Qingxuan's face darkened with frustration.
He had chosen to come here with the intention of entering the Primordius Sword Sect to acquire some of its legacy resources. If entry was denied, he reasoned that it would be better to seek cultivation resources elsewhere rather than squander his time here.
"Windfeathers Sword, Brother Mu is correct. If we can't gain access to the Primordius Sword Sect, please excuse us from further involvement," sneered another disciple from the Limitless Immortal Sect.
They were aware that the Immortal Illusion Dimension was only open for a limited time. Their visit to the Primordius Sword Sect was motivated by the desire to claim a portion of the spoils.
Whether someone from the Primordius Sword Sect had truly entered the fray was of little concern to them.
"Everyone, I ask for your patience. I've already reached out to Senior Apprentice-Brother Tian Chi and the others. We should receive some news shortly," Windfeathers implored, sensing the growing impatience.
Yuwen Jian's expression grew anxious as he spoke. It had been over ten days since Yuan Tian Lake and his group had breached the sect, and there had been no response whatsoever.
What shocked Stephen Jian even more was that...
Despite his attempts to reach out to Yuan Tianchi, Yuan Qingyu, and several other senior members, there was no response. It was as if all the senior brothers and sisters who had entered the Primordius Sword Sect had vanished into thin air!
Stephen Jian felt a growing sense of dread.
Could it be that the senior members who had entered the Primordius Sword Sect had encountered some disaster?
But...
A grand completion prodigy, a quasi-grand completion prodigy, and ten tribulation transcendence prodigies.
With such an impressive group, if they were to employ the Chaos Origin Sword Sect's Twelve Heavenly Elephant Sword Formation, surely there wouldn't be many grand completion cultivators who could stand against them?
If the intruder who targeted the Hunyuan Sword Sect had indeed slain them, what level of terror did he possess?
It was this very fear of the enigmatic prodigy that kept Stephen Jian from daring to enter the Chaos Origin Sword Sect for answers.
Mu Qingxuan let out a cold snort and declared, "Half a day. I'll give you half a day more. If you continue to bar us from the Chaos Origin Sword Sect, then I'll wash my hands of your sect's affairs!"
Stephen Jian's brow furrowed at her ultimatum.
He was about to respond when a soft voice emerged from within the Primordius Sword Sect.
"Mu Qingxuan, the infiltration of outer universe geniuses into the Immortal Shattering Universe isn't solely the concern of my Primordius Sword Sect. I'm aware of your schemes. Rest assured, once we've dealt with that outer universe genius, the Primordius Sword Sect will acknowledge your efforts."
As the voice dissipated, a young man with eyebrows sharp as swords and eyes twinkling like stars stepped out from the sect.
This young man was Yuan Tian Lake, the celebrated pride of the Primordius Sword Sect.
Over the past ten days, Yuan Tian Lake had been recuperating in the treasury of the Chaos Yuan Sword Sect. Thanks to the supreme Divine Pill and the sect's miraculous medicine, he had finally restored his once-severed cultivation.
"Senior Brother Tian Lake."
Upon seeing the young man emerge, Stephen Jian's face lit up with relief. He quickly approached and bowed in a gesture of deep respect.
Yuan Tian Chi nodded, his gaze settling intently on Mu Qingxuan. With a hint of surprise, he remarked, "Mu Qingxuan, I didn't anticipate your breakthrough to the Multiplication Stage. It's quite the surprise."
Mu Qingxuan offered a slight smile in response. "What's the matter? Did you think you were the only one capable of reaching the Multiplication Stage?"
Yuan Tianchi chose not to respond to Mu Qingxuan. Instead, he shifted his attention to a seemingly empty point in space and spoke with a cool detachment, "Zi Extreme Heaven, I'm aware of your presence. Show yourself."
Following Yuan Tianchi's call, a young man clad in purple emerged gracefully from the void.
Zi Ji Tian!
He was the Limitless Immortal Sect's most formidable prodigy, a genius whose reputation matched that of Yuan Tianchi and Mu Qingxuan.
In this extraordinary moment, the three unparalleled talents of the Shattering Immortal Universe had come together!
"Indeed, you've also ascended to the Multiplication Stage," Yuan Tianchi observed, his gaze sweeping over Zi Extreme Heaven with a glint of intensity. "With the three of us united, no matter how exceptional his combat skills may be, that adversary is destined to fall."
