Chapter 3503: Seizing the Token

As one of the Five Great Sects in Zixiao Heaven, the Divine Fire Sect naturally received a token from the Purple Firmament Immortal King's Mansion.

Yan Chixing sat in the center, flanked by Grand Elder Huo Qianli and Second Elder Dong Mian, both of whom were Immortal King-level powerhouses.

The three discussed and came to a conclusion similar to that of the Tianyan Sect earlier.

Regardless of the Immortal King's Mansion's motives, they had to seize this opportunity to elevate their Sect's core young Disciples as much as possible.

Furthermore, Yan Chixing would travel with the Three Great Elders to escort these four Disciples to Purple Firmament Immortal City.

After the discussion, Yan Chixing asked, “Where did the Third Elder go? We agreed he would remain in the Sect after we left.”

“I’m afraid that won’t be possible.”

Grand Elder Huo Qianli shook his head slightly, “Gui Rong has already left the Sect. A day ago, his Grandson Gui Ping was killed near the Ascension Hall, and Ninth Elder Yu Butong perished with him.”

“Such a thing actually happened.”

Yan Chixing had been in closed-door Cultivation to adjust his state after returning, so he was unaware of this matter, which Huo Qianli had handled previously.

“How audacious! To dare offend my Divine Fire Sect.

Since that’s the case, let the Third Elder resolve this matter, and the Fourth Elder will remain in the Sect. We shall depart now.”

After arranging the Sect’s affairs, Yan Chixing, along with the two Grand Elders, took the four selected Disciples and hurried to Purple Firmament Immortal City.

At the same time, the remaining Three Great Sects also received tokens from the Purple Firmament Immortal King's Mansion and made similar arrangements.

These Five Great Sects had profound foundations and were relatively calm, but the smaller Sects were completely stirred up.

These Sects were small precisely because they lacked Cultivation resources, so suddenly hearing that the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool would be open to them was like a huge pie falling from the sky.

Because of this, they were incredibly excited upon receiving the tokens and rushed to the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool.

Although the Purple Firmament Immortal King issued a hundred tokens this time, there were hundreds of thousands of Immortals in the entire Zixiao Heaven, making it a severe shortage.

The Five Great Sects held high status and formidable strength, and with Immortal King-level powerhouses overseeing them, no one dared to provoke them.

But the smaller Sects were different; some who received tokens were ecstatic, while others who received nothing immediately set their sights on others.

Additionally, there were some powerful Loose Cultivator Immortals who were not eligible for tokens but did not hesitate to seize them by force. As a result, the entire Zixiao Heaven descended into chaos; it had been calm moments before, but soon shouts of battle echoed through the sky.

Fights and token抢夺 occurred frequently.

Ye Bufan and his group were unaware of these events. They left the Aojian Sect’s territory, preparing to cross Zixiao Heaven and return to Donghua Heaven.

Approximately a day later, having completed most of their journey, they suddenly heard sounds of fighting ahead, followed by three figures speeding toward them.

Two Black-Clothed Men sprinted frantically in front, with a white-clothed middle-aged scholar in hot pursuit behind them.

These individuals were very fast, having all reached the Great Luo Immortal realm. The one behind was even stronger, having reached the Middle Stage.

The two Black-Clothed Men fleeing in front saw the Nine Heavens and charged directly towards it, seemingly intending to seize this flying Immortal Artifact.

However, the white-clothed middle-aged scholar behind them gave them no chance, his speed increasing rapidly.

“Hand over the token, and I can spare your lives!”

His figure flickered, and he moved ahead to block their path.

“Don’t dream! We obtained this token with great difficulty, why should we give it to you?”

Seeing no way forward, the two Black-Clothed Men immediately changed direction and fled again.

“Seeking death!”

A hint of killing intent flashed in the middle-aged scholar’s eyes. With a flick of his wrist, an ancient longsword appeared in his palm, and a sharp sword light slashed towards the two.

A Great Luo Immortal’s attack was astonishingly powerful; a sword light tens of meters long tore through the sky.

Seeing no hope of escape, the two Black-Clothed Men quickly turned to face the attack.

One took out a long saber and slashed it out to meet the attack.

The other Black-Clothed Man took out a long spear and thrust it out like lightning.

The two attacked powerfully and coordinated well, but their opponent’s strength was too great; two Great Luo Immortals in the Early Stage combined could not defeat one in the Middle Stage.

After just two moves, the heads of the two flew high, and before their Primordial Spirits could escape, they were shattered by the longsword.

After killing the two, the middle-aged scholar extended his hand and grabbed two Storage Rings. With a thought, two black tokens floated in mid-air, which were precisely the tokens for the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool.

“Hahaha, this token is finally mine.”

As he spoke, he put away the tokens and Storage Rings. He turned his head and saw the Nine Heavens floating nearby, a hint of killing intent flashing in his eyes.

These days, tokens for the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool were being snatched everywhere. Now that he had obtained two, he did not want this secret to be known. Since these people had seen it, he could only eliminate them to prevent any future trouble.

Especially, he also noticed the Medium Grade flying Immortal Artifact and wanted to claim it for himself.

“Kid, you can only blame your bad luck!”

As he spoke, the longsword in his hand once again unleashed a sword light tens of meters long, sweeping towards the people sitting on the bow of the Nine Heavens.

Ye Bufan frowned slightly. The incident happened suddenly, and he had stopped the Nine Heavens, but he was too lazy to bother with these people’s affairs.

If this middle-aged scholar were sensible, he would leave immediately, and Ye Bufan would pretend he saw nothing. But this fellow insisted on coming over to seek death.

The middle-aged scholar, however, was unaware of this. The only aura he could sense was that Ye Bufan was merely a Great Spirit Immortal, so he didn't take him seriously at all.

The sword light in his hand grew brighter and brighter, but suddenly, a blood-red Immortal Essence large hand appeared in mid-air and crushed his sword light in one grasp.

“This… this is actually an Immortal King!”

Feeling the power of the Immortal Essence large hand, the middle-aged scholar’s face turned pale with fright. He never dreamed that an Immortal King-level powerhouse was hidden among these people!

This fellow immediately turned to flee, but Situ Dianmo gave him no such chance. The Immortal Essence large hand grabbed down from the sky, seizing both the man and his sword in its palm, and slammed him heavily onto the bow of the Nine Heavens.

“Ugh!”

Although the middle-aged scholar was a Great Luo Immortal-level powerhouse, this fall caused his Immortal Essence to disperse, almost making him faint.

“Senior Immortal, I was wrong. I was blind, please spare my life.”

Knowing that the other party had an Immortal King-level powerhouse, he dared not show any resistance, kowtowing like pounding garlic, utterly subservient.

Ye Bufan waved his hand, “Hand over your Storage Ring.”

To save his life, the middle-aged scholar dared not hesitate in the slightest. He could only break his fortune to avoid disaster and respectfully handed over his Storage Ring.

Ye Bufan took it in his hand and scanned it with his Divine Sense. Inside were hundreds of millions of low-grade immortal crystals, along with some treasures like immortal spirit grass.

But what he wanted was not these. With a thought, the two black tokens appeared before his eyes.

He held them and looked. The front read “Purple Firmament” in large characters, and the back said “Immortal Pool.”

He didn’t know what these were, but anything that could make several Great Luo Immortals fight desperately for it was certainly not ordinary.

Ye Bufan looked at the middle-aged scholar: “Tell me what this is? If there’s a single lie, you should know the consequences.”
