Chapter 3616: Immortal Crystals Gone

“W-we have to keep guarding the entrance?” The two disciples from the Immortal Feather sect were stunned. This result left them very surprised.

“Senior Chang Yang, do we really have to keep guarding the entrance? Y-you haven’t gotten anything wrong, have you?” One of the disciples tried to confirm again. He did not even forget to stress. “Senior, we’re both disciples of the Immortal Feather sect.”

“I’m obviously aware that you’re disciples of the Immortal Feather sect. It’s exactly because you’re disciples of the Immortal Feather sect that you can stay here.” Jian Chen glared at the two of them before returning to the general’s estate without looking back.

“Senior Chang Yang, you’ve finally returned.” As soon as he entered the general’s estate, Jian Shiyi appeared before Jian Chen. He studied Jian Chen discreetly and asked in a slightly respectful tone, “General, was your trip to the commander’s estate successful?”

“Of course, it was. I even exchanged opinions with Immortal Exalt Wei Qi, which has actually saved me from many qualms.” Jian Chen chuckled. Jian Shiyi was an elder of the Immortal Sect of Myriad Swords. He had quite a good impression of the Immortal Sect of Myriad Swords, so he treated Jian Shiyi in a particularly friendly manner.

Of course, the most important reason was because Jian Shiyi truly respected him as a senior. He behaved rather courteously as well, so Jian Chen did not try to alienate Jian Shiyi either.

“Senior Chang Yang, do the two disciples from the Immortal Feather sect have to keep watching the entrance?” Jian Shiyi glanced at the entrance and asked softly.

“Of course!” Jian Chen said.

“I see!” Jian Shiyi smiled in understanding as if he had already realised something.

Apart from one person imprisoned and Jian Shiyi, there were eight other Hundred Immortal Commandants in Jian Chen’s general’s estate. However, the eight others had yet to meet with Jian Chen even to this day.

However, Jian Chen did not care about that. He was unconcerned about his authority as a general as well. All he cared about was the Stainless Qi in the sacred land.

After returning to the estate, Jian Chen sat on the general’s throne and faced the empty hall. He held a thumb-sized seal that shone with gorgeous golden light.

Jian Chen sat back with his eyes shut gently, learning about the various rules of the Observance Heaven City through the information recorded in the official seal.

“There’s still a little over a century until the sacred land opens the next time…” Jian Chen murmured gently. Through the seal, he had already learnt about the detailed rules regarding the sacred land.

Every level of the hierarchy had a time limit that they could spend in the sacred land.

Of course, that did not include the city lord!

In the Observance Heaven City, the city lord could enter the sacred land freely. There were no time limits during their term. They could cultivate for as long as they wanted until their term ended.

As for the vice city lord, they received half a year of cultivation time in the sacred land for every passing year.

Myriad Immortal Commanders would only receive three months each year.

Thousand Immortal Generals had a month of cultivation in the sacred land each year.

Hundred Immortal Commandants only had half a month of cultivation in the sacred land each year.

As for soldiers who were the lowest in the hierarchy, they only had a day of cultivation in the sacred land each year.

The sacred land of the Observance Heaven City would only open once every thousand years. From soldiers to Myriad Immortal Commanders, they had to wait for this day of opening if they wanted to enter the sacred land.

While vice city lords could only spend half their time in the sacred land, there were no limitations on when they could enter the sacred land. They could enter it freely like the city lord.

“I can only accumulate a month of time in the sacred land for each year I serve in the Observance Heaven City. In that case, even if I wait until the next opening, I’ll only have accumulated a little over a decade of time in the sacred land.”

While they say Stainless Qi is produced in the sacred land, this comes down to chance. If everything goes smoothly, it’s very easy to obtain a strand of Stainless Qi. If nothing goes smoothly, I won’t obtain a single strand of Stainless Qi even if I stay there for ten thousand years.

As a result, around a year of cultivation time in the sacred land is nowhere near enough. Fortunately, the amount of time we can spend in the sacred land is not fixed. It can be earned through other methods.

Service is one of the methods, but rarely are there any battles or wars involving the Observance Heaven City. It’s always peaceful, so it’s very difficult to obtain time by serving the Observance Heaven City. As such, I can only offer up resources in exchange for more time.

Jian Chen could not help but smile gently. In terms of resources, he was confident that very few Immortal Emperors throughout the entire Immortals’ World could rival his wealth.

Let alone Immortal Emperors, even some Immortal Exalts would concede to him in terms of wealth.

I still have two million five-coloured immortal crystals to collect from the gambling parlour. Just this sum alone has surpassed the entire wealth of some regular Immortal Exalts.” Jian Chen’s smile grew wider. If he subtracted his initial wager of two hundred thousand, he had gained a million and eight hundred thousand five-coloured immortal crystals with ease.

In the next moment, Jian Chen left the general’s estate. Through the Illusionary Daemon race’s mask, he disguised himself, using the appearance that he had used to place the bet. Then he made his way over to the gambling parlour.

After stating his intentions in the gambling parlour, Jian Chen met with the head manager of the gambling parlour very soon, Yu Changkong.

Yu Changkong seemed like an old man in his sixties. He gave off the shrewdness of a businessman.

He was also one of the Hundred Immortal Commandants of the Observance Heaven City.

Yu Changkong immediately recognised Jian Chen as the person who had placed the two-hundred-thousand-five-coloured-immortal-crystal bet. His eyes shone, and his expression immediately became strange.

“Fellow, please come with me to the lounge for special guests.” Yu Changkong let out an enthusiastic, professional smile and made an inviting gesture to Jian Chen.

Jian Chen frowned slightly. H could sense something from Yu Changkong’s demeanour, which gave him an ill omen.

Shortly afterwards, Jian Chen arrived in a luxurious lounge with Yu Changkong.

“Fellow, have you come to collect your winnings? Please let me verify your gambling tablet.” Yu Changkong smiled.

Jian Chen passed a tablet that radiated with the presence of several dozen official seals to Yu Changkong silently.

Yu Changkong accepted the tablet with both hands. After studying it carefully, he sat down where he was. A powerful barrier rose up, enveloping him completely.

Immediately, Yu Changkong’s figure became hazy.

Jian Chen stared straight at Yu Changkong with a frown. He could clearly see Yu Changkong clutching his official seal, sliding it over the gambling tablet. He activated the power within his seal and channelled it into the tablet.

In just a few seconds, the barrier around Yu Changkong vanished. He passed the gambling tablet in his hand back to Jian Chen and said emotionlessly, “Unfortunately, fellow, your gambling tablet cannot be accepted.”

Jian Chen sat there expressionlessly. He glanced past the gambling tablet. It was the same tablet as before. The only difference was the several dozen presences from official seals had all vanished.

The power from the seals in the tablet was a method to verify the authenticity. Only tablets with the power of official seals would be authentic. Once the power of the seals was gone, it would all be viewed as forgery.

“I understand your gambling parlour. Your gambling parlour receives the support of so many officials in the Observance Heaven City, so there’s obviously nothing wrong with your reputation, nor would you do something that destroys your own store over two hundred thousand five-coloured immortal crystals, yet you’ve still chosen to do this in the end…”

“Looks like you already know who I am,” Jian Chen said emotionlessly. His gaze was frigid. He did not try to disguise his fury at all.

Yu Changkong stood up and bowed deeply towards Jian Chen. He said helplessly, “I truly must apologise. Senior Chang Yang, we can’t afford to offend the Immortal Feather sect.”

“Then what about my initial wager of two hundred thousand five-coloured immortal crystals?” Jian Chen asked. He was not surprised by how his identity had been exposed.

After all, he had prematurely wagered on the least likely winner during the battle of the top six, and he had put in two hundred thousand five-coloured immortal crystals. Coupled with how he intentionally used a series of disguises in the later battle to lower everyone’s hopes in him winning, he obviously could not hide his actions from the Immortal Feather sect that had carried out a careful investigation.

“The two hundred thousand five-coloured immortal crystals are also gone, as the two million five-coloured immortal crystals will all be collected by the person who possesses the true gambling tablet,” Yu Changkong said helplessly.
