467: The emperors visited

Not long after the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and a dozen Immortal Emperors vanished into space.

A rift opened in Xuantian Reception City in the Hongmeng Immortal Realm, and then a dozen figures appeared.

"Hiss, these dozen people actually tore through space to get here. At the very least, they are Immortal King powerhouses."

"Indeed, only powerhouses above the Immortal King Realm can tear through space. The Qingtian Immortal Sect's appeal is truly immense!"

Seeing the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the dozen others emerge from the spatial rift, all the Cultivators waiting to participate in the Disciple recruitment in Xuantian Reception City looked at them with awe.

Although they had come to Xuantian Reception City for the Disciple recruitment assembly, Immortal King powerhouses were formidable figures everywhere. They dared not show the slightest disrespect.

Facing the respectful gazes of the surrounding Cultivators, the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others didn't even glance at them. Instead, they immediately released their Divine Sense to confirm if the Heavenly Emperor was standing at the foot of the Qingtian Immortal Sect's mountain.

As soon as they confirmed this, they would immediately fly to the Qingtian Immortal Sect to visit and invite Jiang Chen to join the Anti-Demon Alliance.

As the Divine Sense of the dozen people spread out, they quickly discovered the Heavenly Emperor, standing rigidly beside the talent testing ladder, looking dazed.

At this moment, the Heavenly Emperor also instantly sensed the Divine Sense of the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others, and he shamefully lowered his head, not daring to communicate with them.

"Hiss, it really is Fellow Daoist Situ. He's standing quite straight!"

"Yes, since Fellow Daoist Situ is really standing here, then what he said must be true."

After observing the Heavenly Emperor for a while, the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others quickly retracted their Divine Sense, exchanging shocked expressions.

Although they had believed the matter after receiving the Heavenly Emperor's message, seeing the Heavenly Emperor being punished to stand at the Qingtian Immortal Sect still shocked them.

After all, the Heavenly Emperor was a powerhouse of the same Realm as them. A dignified Immortal Emperor powerhouse, standing guard like a dog beneath a Sect, was truly lamentable.

"Alright, let's not delay here. Shouldn't we hurry to the Qingtian Immortal Sect to visit that mysterious powerhouse and invite him to resist the Demon Race together?"

Calming his emotions, the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man glanced at the Immortal Emperors and was the first to suggest.

Now that the Demon Race had entered the Immortal Universe, every second they delayed would result in a large number of lives perishing. They couldn't waste time standing here.

"Good, we will go visit that mysterious powerhouse now!"

The Immortal Emperors nodded, then, along with the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man, they flashed directly beside Li Big Saber, who was presiding over the Disciple recruitment.

"Who are you, and why have you come to my Qingtian Immortal Sect?"

Seeing that the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the dozen others all had unfathomable cultivation Realms, Li Big Saber's expression changed in surprise, and he immediately asked loudly.

Having been in the Immortal Realm for so long, he had a general understanding of the Immortal Realm's situation and knew that his current strength was already the highest in the entire Immortal Realm, apart from the legendary Immortal Emperors.

Now, he couldn't discern the Realms of the dozen people in front of him. Didn't that mean they were all Immortal Emperors?

"Hehe, young friend, do not be afraid. We merely wish to visit your esteemed Sect Master. Please inform him for us."

"That's right, young friend, we bear no ill will. It's just that the Immortal Universe is currently facing a major Demon Race invasion, and we wish to meet your Sect Master to invite him to resist the Demon Race together."

Seeing Li Big Saber's surprised expression, the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the dozen Immortal Emperors quickly smiled, signaling Li Big Saber not to be afraid.

Of course, they were actually afraid that Li Big Saber would be afraid, because if Li Big Saber was afraid, he would call for help. If Li Big Saber called out Jiang Chen, who had defeated the Heavenly Emperor in one move, then they might all be finished today.

"Oh? Demon Race invasion?"

Hearing the explanation from the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others, Li Big Saber looked around at them in confusion, then said indifferently, "Since you have something to discuss with my Sect Master, I will report it for you. As for whether the Sect Master is willing to see you, that will depend on his mood."

Although there was a high probability that the dozen people in front of him were all Immortal Emperors, with Jiang Chen and Grand Elder Piao Wuren in the Qingtian Immortal Sect, he wouldn't fear the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others.

After all, with Jiang Chen's terrifying combat power, plus Piao Wuren's assistance, it would be more than enough to repel these dozen Immortal Emperors, even if they couldn't kill them.

"Good, good, thank you, young friend. Then please trouble young friend to go in and report."

"Yes, yes, we trouble young friend!"

Seeing that Li Big Saber, an Immortal Emperor Peak, calmed down in an instant, the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the Immortal Emperors smiled even more politely.

"Understood, everyone please wait here for a moment. I will return to the Sect to report now!"

Li Big Saber replied, then looked at the young boys and girls who were testing on the talent testing ladder, saying, "You all continue to climb. If you can't climb anymore, wait where you are. Only when This Elder comes out will you enter the illusion demon mirror."

"Yes, Elder!" Over a hundred million young boys and girls responded in unison.

After giving instructions for the Disciple recruitment, Li Big Saber didn't linger. Instead, he flashed back to the Qingtian Immortal Sect's plaza and walked towards the Main Hall of the Qingtian Immortal Sect.

When he arrived at the entrance of the Main Hall, he immediately bowed towards the hall and said, "Reporting to the Sect Master! A dozen strong individuals, suspected to be Immortal Emperors, have arrived outside the Sect. They say that the Demon Race has invaded the Immortal Universe and wish to meet the Sect Master to invite him to resist the Demon Race together. Does the Sect Master wish to see them?"

"Oh? The Demon Race again?"

Hearing Li Big Saber's report, Jiang Chen, who was lying on a chair in the hall enjoying Liu Shu's back massage, frowned, then said faintly to outside the hall, "Let them in!"

Since he had ascended to the Immortal Realm, he also had a responsibility to protect it. After all, the Immortal Realm was the foundation of survival. If the Demon Race polluted or completely destroyed it, then the Qingtian Immortal Sect wouldn't need to recruit Disciples anymore.

"Yes, Sect Master! This Subordinate will now lead them in." Li Big Saber replied from outside the hall, then turned and walked towards the plaza, preparing to leave the Sect and lead the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others to the Main Hall.

"Xiao Shu, that's enough for today. Arrange tables and chairs on both sides and brew some Immortal Tea to entertain the guests who will be coming in later."

Although those dozen Immortal Emperors outside were insignificant to him, guests were guests, and he couldn't be impolite.

"Yes, Sect Master!"

Liu Shu replied, quickly ran out of the hall to collect new tea, then went to the Time Pagoda, asked Zhu Heizi and others for Materials, refined some tables, chairs, and teacups, brought them back to the Main Hall, and set them up, waiting for the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others to enter.

Above the Qingtian Immortal Sect.

As soon as Li Big Saber came out, he immediately said to the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others, "Everyone, please follow me into the Sect. Our Sect Master has agreed to see you."

With that, Li Big Saber directly descended to the Mountain Gate of the Qingtian Immortal Sect, preparing to lead the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others from the Mountain Gate into the Qingtian Immortal Sect.

Although he could directly descend from the air to the Qingtian Immortal Sect's plaza, the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others were outsiders, and he couldn't let them descend directly from the air as well, as this would damage the Qingtian Immortal Sect's prestige.

"Good, good, then we trouble young friend to lead the way."

The Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others heard this and immediately descended to the Qingtian Immortal Sect's Mountain Gate, smiling politely and cupping their hands in thanks to Li Big Saber.

As top powerhouses of the Immortal Universe, Li Big Saber's action, though somewhat disrespectful, made them realize that given Jiang Chen's terrifying combat power, they could only adapt to local customs.

After all, they were currently seeking Jiang Chen's help and couldn't put on the airs of Immortal Emperors.

"Everyone, please follow me!"

Seeing the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man being extremely polite, Li Big Saber also politely made a gesture of invitation, then was the first to step into the Mountain Gate of the Qingtian Immortal Sect.

"Let's go!"

Seeing Li Big Saber enter, the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man greeted the other Immortal Emperors, and they all quickly followed.

As soon as the dozen people entered the Qingtian Immortal Sect, they were immediately stunned by the surging Immortal Essence, standing rooted to the spot.

"Hiss, this... the Immortal Essence here is terrifying! How many supreme-grade shapeshifting Immortal Essence veins would it take to form such dense Immortal Essence?"

"It's too terrifying. Such dense Immortal Essence must come from at least a thousand supreme-grade shapeshifting Immortal Essence veins. Where did the Qingtian Immortal Sect get so many supreme-grade Immortal Essence veins?"

"Holy crap! Our Sect has been passed down for tens of millions of years, searching the entire Immortal Universe, and only managed to obtain over a hundred supreme-grade shapeshifting Immortal Essence veins. How does this Qingtian Immortal Sect have so many?"

The Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others scanned their surroundings with horrified expressions, then exchanged shocked messages.

Although each of their factions possessed one to two hundred supreme-grade shapeshifting Immortal Essence veins, which weren't considered rare.

However, these were accumulated by their factions over tens of millions of years, searching the entire Immortal Universe.

Now, the Qingtian Immortal Sect alone had more supreme-grade shapeshifting Immortal Essence veins than the sum of their several factions, which truly puzzled them.

Because whenever a supreme-grade shapeshifting Immortal Essence vein formed in the Immortal Universe, it was always taken into their possession by these dozen factions, and it had never been snatched by other factions.

Where did the Qingtian Immortal Sect get so many supreme-grade shapeshifting Immortal Essence veins?

"Why aren't you all moving? Is something amiss?"

Seeing the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others standing rooted to the spot, both shocked and bewildered, as soon as they entered the Qingtian Immortal Sect, Li Big Saber couldn't help but turn around and ask.

Hearing Li Big Saber's words.

The Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others instantly regained their senses, quickly waving their hands with embarrassed smiles.

"No, no, nothing's amiss. Please continue to lead the way, young friend."

"Yes, yes, we were just discussing some matters. Please don't take offense, young friend!"

As top powerhouses of the Immortal Universe, they certainly wouldn't admit that they had just been greatly shocked by the Immortal Essence environment of the Qingtian Immortal Sect, as that would make them seem ignorant.

"Alright, then everyone please continue to follow me."

Seeing that the group seemed to be hiding something, Li Big Saber didn't ask further. Instead, he nodded and continued to lead the way.

He led the dozen people up the steps to the Qingtian Immortal Sect's plaza, then walked towards the Main Hall.

When the dozen people walked not far from the Main Hall and saw the Immortal Dao Tea Tree planted next to it, the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others gasped again, standing dumbfounded.

"Hiss, this... isn't this the Immortal Dao Tea Tree? There's only one in our Immortal Universe. Where did the Qingtian Immortal Sect's Immortal Dao Tea Tree come from?"

"Holy crap, what is the origin of this Qingtian Immortal Sect? The things it possesses seem to have appeared out of thin air."

"Indeed, those thousands of supreme-grade shapeshifting Immortal Essence veins, and this Immortal Dao Tea Tree, have never appeared in the Immortal Universe. Where did the Qingtian Immortal Sect get these things?"

Looking at the lush Immortal Dao Tea Tree, the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others all had wide eyes and agape mouths.

Previously, the Qingtian Immortal Sect possessing thousands of supreme-grade shapeshifting Immortal Essence veins had already made them very curious, unable to understand where the Qingtian Immortal Sect had obtained them.

Now, with an Immortal Dao Tea Tree planted at the entrance of the Qingtian Immortal Sect's Main Hall, a tree of which there was only one in the entire Immortal Universe, and which was jointly managed by their dozen factions, they were even more full of questions.

Because if these things from the Qingtian Immortal Sect were obtained from some Immortal Realm in the Universe, they would have heard some rumors.

But now, the Qingtian Immortal Sect clearly had so many treasures, yet they had never heard any news, as if they had appeared out of thin air, which truly made them unable to understand what was going on.

"Why aren't you all moving again? Do you have something else to discuss?"

Seeing the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others stop again, staring intently at the Immortal Dao Tea Tree, even though they were almost at the Main Hall entrance, Li Big Saber asked somewhat helplessly.

Hearing Li Big Saber's question.

The Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others regained their senses, again waving their hands awkwardly and smiling.

"No, no, young friend misunderstands. We were just so captivated by how lush your Sect's Immortal Dao Tea Tree is that we got lost in thought for a moment. Please don't take offense, young friend!"

"Yes, yes, your Sect's tree is truly extraordinary. It's our first time seeing such a specimen."

They weren't lying about this, because the Immortal Dao Tea Tree that their dozen factions jointly managed would immediately be divided among them as soon as a few mature leaves grew, and it had never been lush.

"What's so good about a tea tree? Everyone, please hurry and follow me, lest our Sect Master waits too long."

Hearing the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others' reply, Li Big Saber glanced at them disdainfully, then turned and continued towards the Main Hall.

Originally, he held a trace of awe for these Immortal Emperors, but a single tea tree in the Sect had shocked them into losing their composure, and the image of the Immortal Emperors in his heart was greatly diminished.

"Good, good, let's go, let's go."

Sensing Li Big Saber's displeasure, the Blue-Robed Middle-aged Man and the others dared not show any temper. Instead, they quickly followed behind Li Big Saber and arrived at the entrance of the Qingtian Immortal Sect's Main Hall.

Before entering the Qingtian Immortal Sect, they still felt that as Immortal Emperors, they could at least maintain some dignity.

But upon seeing all the unusual things within the Qingtian Immortal Sect, they dared not put on any airs.

After all, the Qingtian Immortal Sect was too mysterious, so mysterious that they knew nothing about this Sect and couldn't even estimate its true strength.

If they didn't act cautiously in front of such a Sect, they might very well end up like the Heavenly Emperor, being sent to stand at the Qingtian Immortal Sect's Mountain Gate as punishment.
