458: Rewarding the divine source

“Alright, stop shouting here. Follow me to pay respects to the Sect Master, the old man?”

Watching his younger brothers shout in shock, Piao Wuren suppressed the excitement in his heart, scolded them briefly, and stood up from the ascension pool.

Since they had completed their Ascension, they naturally had to go to the Main Hall immediately to pay respects to Jiang Chen.

After all, everything they had now was given by Jiang Chen, and they must always remember their place.

“Ah, yes, yes, Big Brother is right. We must hurry to pay our respects to the Sect Master, the old man.”

“Let's go, let's go! Let's go pay respects to the Sect Master, the old man.”

Being scolded by Piao Wuren, Pu Liuren and Piao Qiren also snapped back to reality. They all stood up from the ascension pool and quickly followed Piao Wuren toward the Main Hall.

Everything in the Qingtian Immortal Sect was exactly the same as the Qingtian Sect in the Lower Realm, so they weren't worried about not finding Jiang Chen.

Because Jiang Chen, unless he was out, was always enjoying life in the Main Hall, so they were guaranteed to find him.

Outside the Qingtian Immortal Sect's Main Hall.

Piao Wuren led Pu Liuren and Piao Qiren, and after receiving Jiang Chen's permission, quickly arrived at the center of the Main Hall, bowing and saluting Jiang Chen as they shouted:

“Subordinate Piao Wuren!”

“Subordinate Pu Liuren!”

“Subordinate Piao Qiren!”

“Subordinate Piao Baren!”

“Subordinate Piao Jiuren, greets the Sect Master!!”

The five men bowed respectfully, waiting for Jiang Chen to speak.

“Mm, you may rise.”

Jiang Chen sat on his throne and nodded, then took a sip of the Immortal Dao Tea that Liu Shu held to his mouth, moistening his throat.

“Thank you, Sect Master!” Piao Wuren and the others thanked him, straightened up, and waited for Jiang Chen's instruction.

Seeing that the five Piao Wuren were standing straight, Jiang Chen waved away Liu Shu, who was holding the tea, and prepared to speak.

“Wuren, since you have just raised your Cultivation, remember not to be impatient or reckless. You must properly temper your Heart-Nature, lest you lose the dignity of a Grand Elder, understand?”

Jiang Chen scanned the five men and reprimanded them with a serious expression.

He had witnessed the scene of the five men in the Ascension Hall just moments ago.

Although he wouldn't care that the five men were yelling loudly in the Ascension Hall after rising to the Peak of Immortal Emperor, if the five maintained such a mental state, and the Disciples saw it later, it would severely compromise the dignity of a Grand Elder. Thus, he had to scold them severely.

“Yes, Sect Master! Subordinates will certainly adhere to the Sect Master's teachings, properly temper our Heart-Nature, and not disgrace the Sect Master!!”

Hearing Jiang Chen's serious tone, cold sweat dripped from the foreheads of the five Piao Wuren, and they quickly shouted in unison.

They were very clear about why Jiang Chen had spoken this way, and now they could only sincerely admit their mistake and hope for lenient treatment from Jiang Chen.

“Mm.”

Seeing that the few of them had a good attitude towards admitting their mistake, Jiang Chen nodded in satisfaction.

He then took dozens of pieces of Divine Source from his System Backpack, suspended them in front of the men, and slowly said, “Your current Cultivation has reached the pinnacle of the Immortal Realm, and absorbing Immortal Essence can no longer allow you to improve.”

“This object is a supreme treasure. Absorbing it can crush the top powerhouses of the Immortal Realm. Take it and Cultivate properly, and in the future, serve my Qingtian Immortal Sect by expanding its territory in the Immortal Realm.”

Since the five Piao Wuren had already been promoted to the Peak of Immortal Emperor, he would not be stingy with the Divine Source.

After all, increasing their strength would make them easier to command later.

“Hiss, absorbing it can crush the top powerhouses of the Immortal Realm?”

Feeling the Divine Power radiating from the Divine Source, the five Piao Wuren all gasped sharply.

Although they didn't know their exact rank in the Immortal Realm after being promoted to the Peak of Immortal Emperor, they could guess it wasn't bad.

Now Jiang Chen said they were already top tier in the Immortal Realm, and then he brought out a treasure like Divine Source, which could crush the top powerhouses of the Immortal Realm after absorption. This truly shocked them greatly.

After all, Jiang Chen had only just Ascended to the Immortal Realm. How could he possess so many Heaven-Defying treasures?

“What, do you have any questions?” Seeing the five Piao Wuren staring blankly at the Divine Source, Jiang Chen couldn't help but ask.

What he brought out were normal items; the reaction of these five showed their mental state was still too poor.

“Ah, no, no, Subordinates were just overwhelmed by the Aura of this treasure and were momentarily flustered! We ask the Sect Master for forgiveness!!”

“That's right, Sect Master. The power emanating from this treasure is truly too immense. That's why your Subordinates were stunned for a moment. We ask for punishment, Sect Master!”

Hearing Jiang Chen's question, the five Piao Wuren recovered and quickly explained in a panic.

Although the reason they were stunned was that the object Jiang Chen brought out was too Heaven-Defying, since Jiang Chen was the boss, they could only admit their mistake again.

“Enough, the punishment is waived. Take the treasure and go absorb it to increase your strength.” Seeing Piao Wuren and the others beg for forgiveness, Jiang Chen waved his hand.

As the Sect Master, although he should be fair in rewards and punishments, he couldn't inexplicably punish his Subordinates just for being momentarily stunned. That would be going too far.

“Thank you, Sect Master, for the treasure!” Hearing that Jiang Chen was not going to punish the five of them, the five Piao Wuren immediately bowed and thanked him, then grabbed their respective Divine Sources and quickly exited the Main Hall.

“Hoo, being the Sect Master is tiring.”

Seeing the five Piao Wuren leave, Jiang Chen sighed, then said to Liu Shu, who was preparing to hand him the Immortal Dao Tea to moisten his throat, “Xiao Shu, This Sect Master is a little tired. Go prepare an Ice and Fire Foot Bath, the full service. This Sect Master needs to properly enjoy himself.”
