Chaotic Sword God chapter-3806-destruction-of-the-daoist-sect-of-heavenly-embodiment

Due to the Aural Heavens Elder’s words, the Immortal Exalt ancestors of the Hall Brilliance Heaven suddenly became filled with confidence about dealing with the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment. They no longer feared the Transcension Ancestor’s threats.

Afterwards, with the Warring Old Freak of the War sect leading them, the dozen or so Immortal Exalts took action against the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment.

They did not kill everyone. Instead, they set up a rather high-level formation, a Conscience Formation. Not only did the Conscience Formation have the ability to reflect the thoughts of cultivators that were not particularly powerful, but it could also test their moral alignment and reveal if they had committed any horrifying massacres in the past.

All of the virtuous disciples of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment that had not committed any ill deeds only had to renounce their membership and they could live.

If there were any malicious disciples or disciples who had committed various heinous crimes, then they would be executed.

Of course, the Conscience Formation could only test disciples below Immortal Monarch. Immortal Monarchs were capable of disguising themselves through various ways to deceive the Conscience Formation.

As a result, the Immortal Monarchs and Immortal Emperors of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment were asked to open their souls and allow their souls to be searched.

These experts of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment were obviously hostile to this request, some choosing death over obliging. However, after the Warring Old Freak had killed a few of them swiftly, the remaining people could only oblige in order to live.

The people responsible for searching their souls were the Immortal Exalts from the peak organisations.

However, even when the Immortal Monarchs and Immortal Emperors opened their souls entirely and cooperated, it still took quite a toll on these Immortal Exalts.

If there was only a small number of them, then they could still withstand it, but even Immortal Exalts could not endure searching through so many souls in such a short time.

As a result, the various Immortal Exalts of the Hall Brilliance Heaven had quite an objection to the matter of soul searching. They believed that this was a pointless and arduous endeavour. They instead suggested destroying the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment completely without sparing anyone.

However, the Warring Old Freak and a few Immortal Exalts refused to kill the innocent, which was why they suggested this method, giving them a chance at survival.

In the end, after several days of searching, only a few hundred people in the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment had committed sinful deeds. After being executed on the spot by the various organisations, the other disciples and experts all managed to scrape by with their lives.

Under the rules set down by the various organisations, they handed over all of their resources and god artifacts and swore that they had severed all connection with the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment before leaving dejectedly.

The Flying Leaf Ancestor of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment was not fortunate enough to enjoy such treatment. In the hearts of all of the Immortal Exalts of the Hall Brilliance Heaven, she had already received the death sentence.

The Warring Old Freak personally destroyed her body, seized her soul, and brought her back to the War sect!

In the blink of an eye, the second greatest organisation on the Hall Brilliance Heaven, the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment, had been destroyed without any conflict.

Originally, the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment’s strength could even challenge the War sect. Even if they stood no chance, they could make the War sect pay a heavy price.

However, the matter of the Transcension Ancestor forging the Fiend Soul Banners had been exposed, turning them into public enemies of the entire Hall Brilliance Heaven. Obviously, they stood no chance as they faced a dozen or so peak organisations when the Transcension Ancestor was not currently present and the Space-purging Ancestor was already dead.

The destruction of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment stirred up great ripples across the Hall Brilliance Heaven. It became the hottest topic of conversation. It was possible to hear cultivators talking about this everywhere.

“It’s said that forging the Fiend Soul Banners requires billions of lives. To think that the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment was actually willing to do something so vicious…”

“I heard that the Transcension Ancestor’s Fiend Soul Banners weren’t forged in the Immortals’ World. Instead, he hid in lower worlds and destroyed an entire world in the process of gathering materials for the Fiend Soul banner.”

“Some of the relatively populous lower worlds have far more than billions of lives. Who knows how many lower worlds he’s destroyed to forge the Fiend Soul Banners. To think that the Transcension Ancestor is actually able to commit such heinous deeds.”

“Although there is conflict and death in the Immortals’ World, it is primarily a conflict of cultivation, a conflict of interest, and conflict from personal grievances. There’s an intrinsic difference from the Transcension Ancestor’s brutal massacre of innocent lives.”

……

…

Many cultivators criticised the Transcension Ancestor on the Hall Brilliance Heaven. In particular, fanned on by the various peak organisations, the Transcension Ancestor’s reputation was completely reduced to ruins. He was lumped with other heretic crooks.

At the same time, under the announcements of the various organisations, more cultivators learnt about the Fiend Soul Banners.

The Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment had already been reduced to ruins. The spiritual veins underground were unearthed and taken away, and the medicinal gardens had been emptied out.

In short, all of the precious resources stored in the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment had been split up among the various organisations.

However, regardless of how turbulent the outside world became, it did not influence Jian Chen at all as he resided in the Immortal Rising City.

Over the past few days, Jian Chen remained in his courtyard, rarely setting foot outside and without paying any attention to the situation happening around him.

In the beginning, very few people in the Immortal Rising City knew about his existence, but ever since the Warring Old Freak personally visited him with a group of Immortal Exalts, his renown was spread far and wide. Not only did many organisations of various sizes in the Immortal Rising City notice this place, but even some peak organisations that resided at the apex of the world cast their attention over.

Endless visitors came after he had risen to renown. The organisations rooted in the Immortal Rising City, including the eight clans, all visited him with bountiful gifts in an attempt to form a bond with the mysterious expert who resided in the courtyard.

Apart from these organisations native to the Immortal Rising City, various peak organisations on the Hall Brilliance Heaven came to visit as well.

However, Jian Chen was only a passerby on the Hall Brilliance Heaven. He did not want any connections with these organisations here. After running out of patience, he directly raised a spatial barrier around the courtyard, blocking everyone from disturbing him.

After receiving Jian Chen’s approval, the city lord of the Immortal Rising City, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu, immediately dispatched a group of guards to closely watch the surroundings of the courtyard, using the forces of the Immortal Rising City to help alleviate the disturbances from the outside world.

Elder Ling of the Merchant Union of Star Brilliance had visited several times. Each time, he would bring Jian Chen a batch of heavenly resources for forging supreme grade Immortal Tier pills. At the same time, he became even more respectful of Jian Chen.

He was only purchasing some heavenly resources that were not of particularly high quality, yet it required a person like elder Ling to deliver it personally. There were not a lot of people on the entire Hall Brilliance Heaven that enjoyed such treatment.

The heavenly resources for refining the recovery pills were even easier to gather than the heavenly resources for the Godking pills.

As a result, under the Merchant Union of Star Brilliance’s assistance, Jian Chen gathered several tens of thousand batches in a very short amount of time.

That was enough to satisfy even some peak organisations for a thousand years.

But to Jian Chen, these several tens of thousand batches of heavenly resources could only sustain a few activations of the Divine Formation of the Heavens.
