Chapter 112: Return to the Starry Abyss Sect

Chapter 112: Return to the Starry Abyss Sect

As dawn crested over the horizon, the sun's golden beams saturated the expansive world.

Jiang Chen, whose cultivation base had risen to the Early-stage Heavenly Origin realm, reclined casually.

The reverberations of his power, unrivaled across the three continents, encased him in an aura of invincibility.

In light of this, he opted for tranquility over cultivation, preferring to bide his time until his eventual return to the sect.

The tranquility was abruptly disrupted by the humming of his transmission jade token.

Scanning it with his divine sense, Jiang Chen detected a message from Feng Jun.

It was an update, notifying him that the Elder of the Heavenly Blade School had the necessary information and was awaiting him.

Equipped with this knowledge, Jiang Chen stretched out his body and ambled onto the spirit boat's deck.

Upon his arrival.

"Supreme Elder."

Feng Jun greeted him. His tone was respectful yet firm as he announced, "The affairs concerning Lady Miao Xiaorui and Lady Mu Tao have been managed. This morning, under the insistence of their respective sect masters, they embarked on their journeys."

Upon hearing the initial part of Feng Jun's report, Jiang Chen nodded, his gaze reflecting the satisfaction of tasks successfully completed.

However, the latter segment elicited a chuckle from him, leading to a mild, amused shake of his head.

'These two 'matchmakers' indeed never tire in their endeavors.'

He silently mused.

Clearing his thoughts.

"Where is everyone?"

Jiang Chen promptly questioned Feng Jun.

"They have all convened at the location designated by the Heavenly Blade School."

Feng Jun responded.

At these words, he took the lead, with Jiang Chen following in contemplative silence.

In no time, they arrived at their destinationa flying artifact constructed in the style of an ancient pavilion.

Jiang Chen ventured inside, stepping into an environment of lavish grandeur.

A magnificent table, sculpted from the purest jade, occupied a majestic position in the room's center.

It was decked with an array of spiritual foods and celestial beverages, a feast designed to tantalize the senses.

The seating was meticulously arranged; eight seats distributed evenly around the table, with a slightly elevated primary seat at the head.

Occupying their respective seats were the sect masters and grand elders of the four significant sects.

"Greetings, Supreme Elder."

Upon recognizing Jiang Chen, they stood up reverently, their greetings resonating throughout the room.

Acknowledging their deference with a nod, Jiang Chen conducted a scan of the room.

His voice plunged into a moment of silence, the gravity of the narrative thrusting the room into a breathless anticipation.

"Now, your responsibility is to disseminate this narrative throughout our three continents."

"Let it reverberate, underscoring the dire repercussions of avarice superseding righteousness."

"This tale, this tragedy, will function as the foundation of your peaceful rule and enduring influence."

Jiang Chen concluded, his gaze unwavering on the sect masters, their faces reflecting the gravity of their upcoming task.

As Jiang Chen's pronouncement echoed through the chamber, a profound silence overtook the convened sect masters.

The profundity of his plan, a daring fusion of reality and fabrication, incited diverse responses.

The Sect Master of the Heavenly Blade School, Xia Hou, knit his brows, his gaze introspective and contemplative.

He mulled over the narrative, weighing the potential fallout and the transformations it might engender.

Conversely, Shao Yun and Yu Jie, both renowned for their sharp judgement, displayed expressions of fascination.

This stratagem, as shrewd as it was, piqued their analytical instincts.

Yet, it was Feng Jun who appeared the most impacted.

He affirmed Jiang Chen's proposal with a nod, the cogs in his mind already spinning, devising the optimal method to circulate this fabricated account.

The chamber maintained its silence for a few more moments, each individual absorbing the repercussions of the narrative, their minds brimming with visions of the lasting influence they could assert, and the tranquility they could attain.

It was evident, the reverberations of Jiang Chen's proposition would persist long after the conference adjourned.

Subsequent to the prolonged quiet, Jiang Chen arose from his lofty seat, shattering the tranquility.

"It should now be clear, my name, as well as Ning Xian's, and my ascension to the Heavenly Origin realm, must remain confidential."

"As for the narrative concerning the secret realm, devise it as you see fit. But remember, the fewer who know about the Heavenly Origin rank spiritual plants, the better."

Jiang Chen concluded, his voice potent and reverberating. Having disseminated his directives, his gaze settled on Feng Jun, "I'll return to the sect first."

Barely had he finished speaking, he disappeared, his fading voice remaining, "Sect master Shao Yun, arrange for Mu Tao to meet Miao Xiaorui at the Floating Spirit Sect. They should arrive in tandem."

Following that, tranquility ensued once more.

Silence returned to the pavilion.

The sect masters and grand elders, in unison, stood and respectfully bowed towards the spot previously occupied by Jiang Chen.

They then engaged in vibrant discussions about implementing the strategy he had proposed.

Meanwhile, Jiang Chen was already en route back to the Starry Abyss Sect.

When they had departed for the Forsaken Serenity Mountain Range aboard the flying spirit boat, the journey had taken seven days.

Now, piloting the Black Crystal Sky Piercing Shuttle, Jiang Chen estimated a half-day for his return journey.

'Truly, the advantages of high-level cultivation are remarkable!'

He mused, as the familiar sight of the Starry Abyss Heavenly Peak emerged, eliciting a sigh of admiration.
