Chapter 3837 Wenren Chen’s Strength

“Any news from Jiyuan and Jinshui cities right now?”

Shen Changqing asked.

Qingmu shook his head upon hearing this: “Not yet!”

The lack of news wasn’t entirely a bad thing.

Especially regarding Jinshui Immortal City, Shen Changqing wasn’t actually too worried.

After all, the Seven Profound Dao Sect had diverted half of its power to deal with that immortal city. The strength of those six peaks was arguably the strongest among the twelve peaks of the Seven Profound Dao Sect, and they also had the immortal Duan Changsheng overseeing them.

Dealing with Jinshui Immortal City, while not a piece of cake, shouldn’t be too much of a problem.

Ultimately,

Jinshui Immortal City was just an ordinary immortal city.

In terms of strength, it was at most comparable to Feiyun Immortal City, and perhaps even weaker than Chishan Immortal City.

Compared to Zhenyuan Pass, it was far inferior.

The only problem right now was Jiyuan Immortal City.

Thinking of this,

Shen Changqing looked down at the blood-red figure.

“Elder Blood River, go to the Abyss Immortal City. If Wenren Chen and the others still fail to capture it, then lend them a hand—”

Just as he finished speaking, Shen Changqing’s expression suddenly shifted.

At that moment,

a Heavenly Soul Curse shattered.

His divine sense entered the Heavenly Soul Curse, and an image immediately appeared.

Within an immortal city, chaos reigned, with two armies locked in fierce combat. The auras of Immortal Emperors pressed down on the void, seemingly capable of suppressing everything.

From Shen Changqing’s perspective, the most intense battle was taking place in the center of that immortal city. Two figures unleashed terrifying aura fluctuations, each strike powerful enough to shake billions of miles of void.

One wore a dark blue robe, every movement imbued with boundless power, while the other wielded a crimson spear, his aura as deep and unyielding as he faced the former without being at a disadvantage.

“Wenren Chen!”

Shen Changqing recognized him immediately; the cultivator wielding the crimson spear was none other than Wenren Chen from the former Flying Cloud Immortal City.

Before him, Wenren Chen had been groveling, displaying none of the demeanor expected of a city lord.

But now,

Wenren Chen was fighting that mysterious powerhouse, every move imbued with terrifying Daoist principles, showcasing his strength to its fullest extent.

Even Shen Changqing’s opinion of him had changed somewhat at this level.

But just as Shen Changqing was about to continue observing, a former Immortal Emperor from Flying Cloud Immortal City suddenly perished, and all the images abruptly ceased.

…

Shen Changqing reopened his eyes, his expression subtle.

“Wenren Chen…it seems I underestimated this Flying Cloud City Lord!”

If he wasn’t mistaken, the cultivator in the dark blue robes was most likely the lord of the Extreme Abyss Immortal City.

And that immortal city was the location of the Extreme Abyss Immortal City.

You must know…

The lord of a city is the one who controls the Dao Stele, and the power displayed within it is comparable to the experts on the Immortal Emperor Stele.

Wenren Chen’s ability to contend with him, regardless of the final outcome, is enough to demonstrate that the opponent’s strength far surpasses that of an ordinary Immortal Emperor.

“Sect Master?”

Xuehe, seeing Shen Changqing lost in thought, couldn’t help but probe.

Shen Changqing, upon hearing this, snapped out of his reverie and waved his hand at Xuehe: “I’m fine. You may proceed directly to the Abyss Immortal City.”

“Yes!”

Xuehe said nothing more and then left the main hall, heading straight for the Abyss Immortal City.

In the short time it took to speak, several more Heavenly Soul Curses shattered, foreshadowing the fall of several more Immortal Emperors.

In a short time,

of the twenty-one Immortal Emperors who had previously submitted, five had already perished. Even without seeing the images transmitted by the Heavenly Soul Curses, Shen Changqing knew that the battle there must be fierce.

However, with Xuehe personally going, there was no problem.

Suppressing his thoughts, Shen Changqing looked at the other cultivators and said, “Next, you will each arrange your disciples to defend Zhenyuan Pass with all your might. Also, send people deep into the northern border of the Immortal Qin Dynasty to gather intelligence on the various immortal cities.

I need to know the situation in the entire northern border as quickly as possible.

Furthermore, the Immortal Qin Dynasty will inevitably be unable to conceal their attack on Zhenyuan Pass, so you must also pay attention to their movements.

Report any developments to me immediately!”

“We respectfully obey the Sect Master’s orders!”

Qingmu and the others respectfully accepted the order.

Then,

Shen Changqing moved his divine sense, and several tokens appeared out of thin air.

The next moment, the tokens landed in front of the peak masters.

“Sect Master, what is this…?”

“There are many restrictions outside Zhenyuan Pass, not only those originally set by the Immortal Qin Dynasty, but also many ancient restrictions. With these tokens, you can bypass those ancient restrictions without triggering the original restrictions of the Immortal Qin Dynasty,”

Shen Changqing said.

These tokens were obtained by him from slaying powerful figures from other Immortal Qin dynasties.

Now,

they belong to the Seven Profound Dao Sect.

The difference is that

these tokens are only useful after entering Zhenyuan Pass and then traveling from Zhenyuan Pass towards the Northern Frontier.

In short,

these are rear tokens, not front tokens.

The restrictions at the front and rear are also different.

As for the front tokens, naturally, they cannot be possessed by other cultivators.

After all, the front restrictions are the natural barrier of Zhenyuan Pass; if everyone had one, then the restrictions of Zhenyuan Pass would be meaningless.

In comparison, the rear tokens are not so important.

After all,

the main purpose of Zhenyuan Pass is to guard this place and ensure the stability of the rear.

If unrest in the rear directly threatens Zhenyuan Pass, then Zhenyuan Pass has no reason to exist.

But—

even so—

not everyone can possess these tokens.

More importantly, after obtaining these tokens, Shen Changqing made some minor modifications, erasing some of the restrictions set up by the Immortal Qin Dynasty and then setting up new ones.

In this way, even if a cultivator from the Immortal Qin Dynasty possessed the original token and used it to guide unauthorized entry into Zhenyuan Pass, they would inevitably trigger numerous restrictions and be instantly killed.

“Remember, this token is crucial; it must never fall into the hands of other cultivators. Only you, the peak masters of your respective peaks, can wield it. You can refine it.

If you perish, this token will be destroyed.”

Shen Changqing’s words made the others understand the importance of the token before them, and they said no more, immediately refining it.

Afterwards,

everyone withdrew and began to prepare for the defense of Zhenyuan Pass, as well as sending cultivators deep into the northern border to gather intelligence.

After everyone left, Shen Changqing didn’t idle; instead, he traveled throughout Zhenyuan Pass, dismantling and breaking down many of the restrictions left over from the original Immortal Qin Dynasty.

As the current foundation of the Seven Profound Dao Sect, Shen Changqing naturally wanted to ensure that no hidden dangers remained in Zhenyuan Pass.

To put it bluntly…

With the advantages of Zhenyuan Pass, even if the Immortal Qin Dynasty were to launch an attack with all its resources, it might not be able to shake Zhenyuan Pass in the slightest. The more Shen Changqing

looked

, the more satisfied he became with Zhenyuan Pass!

This kind of impregnable fortress was indeed extraordinary.

If it weren’t for his own Great Dao Immortal Eye, which allowed him to see through the clues of the restrictions here and find that glimmer of hope in the darkness, it would not be easy to break through Zhenyuan Pass.

…

At the same time.

Inside the Extreme Abyss Immortal City, the war was still raging.

In the void.

Two figures were fighting.

“Wenren Chen, do you really want to betray the court? If you turn back now, I can still plead with His Highness for you to be treated leniently!

If you continue to resist, you will surely be doomed!”

Jun Chen’s face was cold. In the blink of an eye, he had already summoned an ancient bell and slammed it down on Wenren Chen.

With the power of the Immortal City Dao Stele, his strength had now increased by more than one level.

Faced with this furious attack, Wenren Chen roared, his crimson spear radiating a chilling aura. The sharp tip struck the ancient bell directly, unleashing a deafening roar and sending destructive waves scattering in all directions.

“Hmph!”

Wenren Chen grunted, his grip on the spear cracking, and he was forced back several steps.

But in the next instant, the injury vanished, and he charged forward again, his spear unleashing a barrage of countless cold lights, like stars, covering all of Wenren Chen’s weaknesses and vital points.

Seeing this,

Wenren Chen’s face turned icy; he could only continue to activate the ancient bell to defend.

“The Seven Profound Dao Sect is no ordinary force. Brother Jun, why resist so stubbornly? If

you surrender now, you may still have a chance to survive. Otherwise, once Zhenyuan Pass falls and the Seven Profound Dao Sect’s army presses in, it will be too late for regrets!”

Wenren Chen spoke up, using the same words to persuade Jun Chen to surrender. Upon hearing this, the latter laughed in anger.

“Utterly laughable!”

“With Han Chongshan guarding Zhenyuan Pass, how could a so-called Seven Profound Dao Sect possibly shake it?

Don’t you, Wenren Chen, know just how dangerous Zhenyuan Pass is?

In my opinion, the Seven Profound Dao Sect’s actions are courting their own destruction. It won’t be long before news of their complete annihilation arrives. By then, it will be too late for you, Wenren Chen, to regret it!”

“Since that’s the case, let’s see who’s stronger!”

Wenren Chen shook his head, ceasing his persuasion. The crimson spear in his hand grew even more ferocious, putting immense pressure on Jun Chen.

The more they fought, the angrier the latter became.

Normally, even if his strength was somewhat inferior to Wenren Chen’s, with the power of the Dao Stele, suppressing him would be no problem at all.

However

, Wenren Chen initially took the initiative, meeting him under the guise of a colleague, then launching a sneak attack while he wasn’t paying attention, severely injuring him.

Fortunately, Jun Chen reacted quickly, thus escaping unscathed.

Even so, he was severely injured, unable to unleash much of his full strength.

Now, even with the power of the Dao Stele, he could only barely suppress Wenren Chen; killing him was far from feasible.

Otherwise,

in his own territory, Jun Chen wouldn’t have taken Wenren Chen seriously at all. (End of Chapter)
