54: More than three thousand Sky Guards
"Ah, yes, yes, this Subordinate will use more strength."
Liu Shu recovered from her shock and quickly increased the strength in her hands.
After enjoying Liu Shu's service for a while.
Jiang Chen walked out of the main hall and found a place to transplant the enlightenment tea tree and longevity fruit tree from his system backpack.
He planned to let others in the Qingtian Sect use these two items.
Li Big Saber and the other elders, his Personal Disciple and Inner Sect Disciple, could all be supplied according to quantity.
As for the Outer Sect Disciple, he could only set up a combat power ranking and reward the best performers.
After all, there was only so much of these things.
Even if all the leaves were stripped from one enlightenment tea tree, it would only weigh one or two tons.
If he let all the Outer Sect Disciple use it now, he, the Sect Master, would have to drink dirt.
However, Li Big Saber and the others didn't have much use for the longevity fruit.
They could take more as rewards, allowing Outer Sect Disciple to bring them back for their elders whose lifespans were nearing their end.
After transplanting the enlightenment tea tree and longevity fruit tree.
Jiang Chen came to the square and commanded the system, "System, use all the Saint Peak Summoning Cards in my backpack."
Now was the time to summon his Saint Realm army.
Summoning them earlier would allow them to enter the Time Pagoda for cultivation sooner.
[Beep, usage successful. Summoning Saint Emperor Peak Experts for the Host...]
[Beep, usage successful. Summoning Saint King Peak Experts for the Host...]
[Beep, usage successful. Summoning Saint Peak Experts for the Host...]
As the system's voice faded.
A huge rift opened in the space within the Qingtian Sect.
Over three thousand figures lined up neatly and saluted Jiang Chen, shouting.
"Subordinate, Liu Mazi!"
"Subordinate, Gou Ba!"
"Subordinate, Niu Huanxi!"
"Subordinate, Lü Dan!... Subordinate, Xia Jiba, greetings, Sect Master!!"
Over three thousand names echoed in Jiang Chen's ears.
"Liu Mazi? Niu Huanxi? Lü Dan?"
Jiang Chen was speechless again.
Most of these people's names were incredibly bizarre.
If it weren't for the Saint Peak cultivation emanating from them.
He would really think this was a bunch of bumpkins from some mountain.
"You may dispense with the formalities!" Jiang Chen said testily.
Since they had already been summoned, he would just have to make do.
He couldn't possibly dislike so many Saint Realm Experts just because their names weren't pleasant.
"Many thanks, Sect Master!" The group stood upright, looking respectfully at Jiang Chen.
"Mm." Seeing their respectful expressions, Jiang Chen nodded in satisfaction.
He was quite satisfied with their loyalty.
Although their names were a bit strange, they would execute orders without the slightest hesitation.
"Listen carefully, from now on you will be called Qingtian Guards. Your duty is to protect the safety of the Qingtian Sect and eliminate its enemies. Do you understand?" Jiang Chen said calmly, looking at the over three thousand Saint Realm Experts.
This was the name he gave this army.
Regardless of how much their cultivation improved or how many their numbers grew, this title would always be used.
"Yes, Sect Master, we Subordinates will definitely dedicate ourselves to the sect until death!" Over three thousand people shouted in unison.
"Good. Now, all of you go to the Time Pagoda to cultivate. When the First Elder returns, he will make specific arrangements for your matters."
Jiang Chen nodded slightly, telling everyone the location of the Time Pagoda.
"Yes, Sect Master!!"
After a respectful salute, the several thousand people walked in an orderly fashion towards the Time Pagoda.
Inside the Time Pagoda.
As soon as the over three thousand Qingtian Guards entered, they immediately attracted the attention of all the disciples.
"Hiss, who are these seniors? Why haven't I seen them enter the sect before?"
"I don't know, if you haven't seen them, how would I?"
"Could they be experts from the sect who went out for training and just returned today?"
A group of people stared with wide eyes at the over three thousand Qingtian Guards, discussing in low voices.
When they entered the sect, they hadn't seen a single Qingtian Guard.
Now, the sudden appearance of so many people truly astonished them.
"These... these people are all Saint Realm Experts?" Feng Xiaoxiao murmured in astonishment, scrutinizing the over three thousand Qingtian Guards.
Although the Qingtian Sect's heaven-defying cultivation environment had already shocked her many times.
The entry of these over three thousand Qingtian Guards still left her legs weak with shock once again.
These were over three thousand Saint Realm Experts.
Among them, Saints and Saint Kings were nothing.
But those over one thousand Saint Emperor Peak Experts, that was truly terrifying.
If these people cultivated in the Time Pagoda for a period, breaking through to Quasi-Emperor was a certainty.
Over a thousand Quasi-Emperors, even in Central Province, would be a terrifying force.
"Master, Master?"
Wu Yan once again prepared to ask his Remnant Soul Master in the jade pendant.
But no matter how he called, the remnant soul did not respond to him.
"Disciple, stop calling. This master truly doesn't want to speak right now." The remnant soul hid in a corner of the jade pendant, looking as if it wanted to cry.
Before coming to the Qingtian Sect.
He had boasted that a power like the Qingtian Sect was like an ant before him.
But after entering the Qingtian Sect.
He realized that before the Qingtian Sect, he was even less than an ant; even a gatekeeper could easily crush him.
Even if he recovered to Great Emperor cultivation.
He might not be able to stir up any trouble in front of the Qingtian Sect.
This made him feel completely insecure now.
He was afraid of being discovered by someone from the Qingtian Sect and being instantly slapped to death.
The over three thousand Qingtian Guards did not scramble for the disciples' spots.
Instead, they went to the depths of the Time Pagoda, found a spot, and cultivated quietly.
The space inside the Time Pagoda was vast and could accommodate many people, so there was no need for everyone to crowd together.
Youzhou, Tianbao City.
Li Big Saber, carrying Jiang Chen's mission.
Appeared before a chamber of commerce that spanned dozens of miles.
This chamber of commerce was called the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce.
It was the most powerful chamber of commerce in the entire Canglan Continent.
Its business scope covered the entire Canglan Continent, and there were countless treasures within the chamber of commerce.
Its motto was: as long as you have enough money, it dares to sell anything.
"Esteemed guest, please come in. What would you like to buy or sell? I can introduce you." Seeing Li Big Saber walk in, a service attendant came over with a smile.
"Call out your highest-ranking person in charge. Just say that someone from the Qingtian Sect has come to purchase cultivation resources." Li Big Saber said calmly to the attendant.
This was Youzhou, within the Twelve Provinces.
He believed that with the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce's intelligence network, they should know the Qingtian Sect's reputation.
That's why he mentioned the Qingtian Sect, to avoid unnecessary trouble.
"Ah! Qingtian Sect?" The attendant first exclaimed in surprise.
Then he immediately led Li Big Saber to a VIP room, bowing and scraping politely, saying, "Esteemed guest, please wait a moment. I will go and call the highest-ranking person in charge right away."
