Chapter 3717: The Wayless Immortal Exalt’s Clue

The Wayless Immortal Exalt continued, “The origins of the sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens is very mysterious. He seems to be from some peak organisation or is the disciple of some peak expert, but we can’t deduce any information regarding the sect master.”

“Wayless, why do you suspect the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens?” the Cloud-treading Ancestor asked.

“Because I’ve been constantly investigating this person over the years. His identity is mysterious, and he possesses the ability to hide away from the heavenly secrets. It’s impossible to divine any information about him. As a result, I could only investigate via the various clues that I had. In the end, as I investigated, I suddenly received the news that the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens had evacuated with their entire sect. It was also at that moment that the new sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens raised my attention.”

“As a result, I turned most of my focus towards the new sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, wanting to find the organisation behind him and see just who was so bold that they interfered with the matters of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. However, I tried various different methods, yet I struggled to find any background on him at all. At the same time, I was actually unable to divine any information on the sect master who was only a Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal. I found nothing at all.”

“This result made me think of the mysterious Immortal Emperor that I had been investigating the entire time. A common trait had actually appeared between the two of them.”

“What does this have to do with the person who destroyed my Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants?” the Space-splitting Venerable asked sternly. The Wayless Immortal Exalt had said all that, but he still had not provided sufficient evidence to prove that the destruction of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants was connected to the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.

“There’s no rush, venerable. Please hear me out,” the Wayless Immortal Exalt smiled and said at a steady pace, “The Sword Sect of Violet Heavens has an Immortal Devouring Orchid. Its cultivation has already reached the Ninth Heavenly Layer of Immortal Emperor. You must be aware of this, venerable.”

“That flower killed many experts of my sect,” answered the Space-splitting Venerable.

The Wayless Immortal Exalt continued, “With how powerful that orchid is, no one in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens right now should be able to order it around if it really was the one raised by the Star Clustered Ancestor. Yet in the end, when the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens destroyed the four organisations around it and the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder, it was the Immortal Devouring Orchid that did it. Even when it killed all of your experts, the Immortal Devouring Orchid did not hold back at all. It acted as if there was nothing to fear. It was not afraid of offending you at all, nor was it worried about your retribution.”

“I’ve seen the Immortal Devouring Orchid raised by the Star Clustered Ancestor before. Even if I ignore the tremendous disparity in battle prowess, its personality is completely different too.”

“As a result, I can conclude that the Immortal Devouring Orchid is not the one raised by the Star Clustered Ancestor. Instead, it was brought to the sect by the new sect master, Jian Chen. Jian Chen comes from a mysterious organisation, so he does not fear the retribution of your Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants at all.”

“In the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, Jian Chen was bold enough to personally kill Chen Shuzhi of the mixed blooded clan in front of a great elder of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. In the wilderness, the Immortal Devouring Orchid also fearlessly slaughtered many experts of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. They had already managed to do such things, so isn’t destroying the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants nothing special?”

“After all, perhaps not everyone in the Immortals’ World is aware of the feud between the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants and the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, but it’s no secret among the major organisations. Since their organisation is bold enough to assist the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, it makes perfect sense why they would immediately go after your Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.”

“Lastly, the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens evacuated at a time extremely close to when your Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants was destroyed. This isn’t some coincidence. It must have been planned right from the beginning.”

Listening to the Wayless Immortal Exalt’s analysis, the seven ancestors’ faces became extremely sunken. Killing intent shone in their eyes.

“Seems about right. With the mysterious organisation supporting the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, the same mysterious organisation was probably responsible for destroying our Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants as well.”

“No wonder, no wonder they could move through our sect freely and completely bypass the protective formation, as well as notice the power we hid among the ancestral towers. Looks like this organisation must have a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt.”

……

…

The Wayless Immortal Exalt’s analysis left the ancestors of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants slightly convinced. There was no actual evidence yet, but at least it all made sense.

“Wayless, you said you’ve been investigating an Immortal Emperor all this time. Don’t tell me this person is also connected to the mysterious organisation?” The Space-splitting Venerable stared at the Wayless Immortal Exalt in interest.

The Wayless Immortal Exalt nodded and said, “I do indeed have those suspicions, as this person’s identity is also mysterious, and I can’t find any information on his background. He constantly referred to himself as an independent cultivator, but most importantly, his Chaotic Body had already reached Major Achievement.”

“There are a few people who cultivate the Chaotic Body in the Immortals’ World, but rarely can anyone reach such a realm. However, everyone who has managed to reach his realm of cultivation were nurtured at the expense of a tremendous amount of resources over lengthy periods of time by peak organisations. Every single one of them has a reputation for themselves, and there is no more than a handful of them in the entire Immortals’ World.”

“If he were an independent cultivator, it would be completely impossible for him to grow to such a realm of cultivation silently, so he must have been nurtured by a mysterious organisation or a mysterious expert. This does happen to coincide with the mysterious organisation behind the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.”

“Apart from this, they share another similarity—they both possess Immortal-destroying Thunders of extremely high quality.”

Reaching there, the Wayless Immortal Exalt sighed gently and said, “I can’t find this Immortal Emperor anymore, so I also planned on starting with the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens to find the whereabouts of this Immortal Emperor and unearth the organisation hiding behind him.”

“What kind of grudge does the Immortal Emperor who cultivates the Chaotic Body have with your Immortal Feather sect? Why are you so determined to find him?” the Cloud-treading Ancestor said.

When he heard that, the Wayless Immortal Exalt’s face became frigid. “A great elder of our Immortal Feather sect died at his hand.”

When they heard that, the expressions of the ancestors of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants changed slightly. He was much more than just bold to kill a great elder of the Immortal Feather sect.

Shortly afterwards, the Wayless Immortal Exalt turned around slightly. He glanced at the Immortal Exalts native to the Reverent Observance Heaven behind him before telling the Space-splitting Venerable, “These fellows behind me are hoping that you can show some mercy. These fellows will be able to lend us quite a lot of assistance regarding the matter of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.”

“How will they be of any help?” The Space-splitting Venerable asked sternly.

“They obviously will!” The Wayless Immortal Exalt smiled. “The Sword Sect of Violet Heavens is no regular organisation. They have declined already, but they’re still very renowned in the Immortals’ World. We need to have reason on our side to go after them.”

“After all, it’s not going to be the same this time around as those gentle attempts in the past.”

……

…

Before long, a startling piece of news that shook up countless organisations on the Reverent Observance Heaven emerged. It was spread through over a dozen organisations that stood at the apex of the Reverent Observance Heaven.

The Sword Sect of Violet Heavens had given up itself to an unknown organisation of malice. They secretly infiltrated the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants while the seven ancestors were not present, destroying the entire sect.

Chang Yang who contended for the position of Thousand Immortal General in the Observance Heaven City also originated from the mysterious organisation of malice and had killed a great elder of the Immortal Feather sect.

For a moment, over a dozen peak organisations native to the Reverent Observance Heaven had banded together, fanning on the smaller organisations beneath them to condemn the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.

Many of them were aware of the feud between the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens and the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. Even if the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens was actually behind the destruction of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, no one on the Reverent Observance Heaven would say anything. It would make perfect sense.

However, for the sake of the continuation of their organisations, these peak organisations all caved in to the threats of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. The countless smaller organisations beneath them possessed feeble strength and little authority, so they could only go with the flow.

The seven ancestors were not in a hurry to touch the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. At this moment, they had returned to the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. Faced with the ruined sect, they were all heavy-hearted.

Suddenly, the Space-splitting Venerable opened his eyes. They shone with sharp, cold light. “I’ve already received the news from the Sacred Beast clan and confirmed what the Wayless Immortal Exalt said. The Samsaric Immortal Exalt is in danger and has been lost in the chaotic sea. No one knows whether he can still return to the Immortals’ World. It’s extremely likely that he won’t ever return.”

When they heard the news, the ancestors of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants were taken aback at first before becoming reinvigorated.

“Hahahaha, the heavens are smiling upon us. Without the protection of a Grand Exalt, just how much longer can the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens last?” The Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt ancestor Han laughed aloud. The sorrow from the destruction of the sect seemed to let up significantly at that moment.

“Dammit. The whelps of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens fled too quickly, or I’d be the first one to destroy their entire sect.” Ancestor Ling growled angrily. His eyes shone with hatred.

Among the seven ancestors of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, he without a doubt hated the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens the most.

The other ancestors were all delighted as well. They were completely unconcerned about the Samsaric Immortal Exalt’s safety. They even hoped that the Samsaric Immortal Exalt would never return.

After all, in recent years, the greatest obstacle preventing them from destroying the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens was the Samsaric Immortal Exalt.

“It’s about time. C’mon. Let’s go to the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. I hope we can lure out some people. Let’s see who exactly this mysterious organisation is,” the Space-splitting Venerable said.

In the next moment, the seven ancestors of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants vanished, immediately arriving above the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.

Gazing at the empty sect below, the Space-splitting Venerable sneered. “The place below is not as simple as the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens’ ancestral grounds. It is also where the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens rose up into renown. As long as we destroy this place and the will of the Grand Exalt is eradicated, we can claim this place for ourselves. By then, it will mean that the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens has truly run out of fortune.”

“Third brother, you were enslaved by the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens in the past, so you can do it.” The Space-splitting Venerable turned towards ancestor Ling.

“Yes, brother!” Humiliation appeared on ancestor Ling’s face, but shortly afterwards, it was replaced by utter hatred.

In the next moment, ancestor Ling returned to his original form. A colossal elephant over three thousand metres tall towered into the air. He let out a trumpet and raised his colossal front feet before stomping down heavily on the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.

Boom!

Immediately, the earth shook as several mountains in the surroundings were reduced to nothing. A colossal pit appeared in the ground.

“Third brother, use a little less strength. You’re doing it too quickly. Don’t forget about your main objective.” The Cloud-treading Ancestor reminded him.

Ancestor Ling nodded and immediately slowed down. In his elephant form, he began to destroy the mountains where the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens stood, damaging the foundations of this place and slowly erasing it from the world.

Over all these years, they had wanted to do this the entire time, but they never found the courage to do so due to the deterrence of the Samsaric Immortal Exalt.

Now that the Samsaric Immortal Exalt was in danger, coupled with the emotional impact of their sect’s destruction, the ancestors of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants immediately became fearless.
