Chapter Eleven: Half a Month Later

With the gathering effect of the sect square and the blessing of the gathering array method, Jiang Chen's cultivation speed increased significantly.

"Chaotic Immortal Scripture..." Jiang Chen sighed softly, his eyes closed slightly as he immersed himself once again in the comprehension of the Chaotic Immortal Scripture.

Outside the Taiyi Sect, Ji Xuan stirred up trouble everywhere, probing the surrounding powers and factions, flaunting his superiority before others.

Relying on his ability to exchange for elixirs with his arrogance points, Ji Xuan quickly reached the realm of Early Heavenly Nine. After all, he was born into the royal family, starting out as an Early Heavenly One, and with the system in hand, breaking through to Early Heavenly Nine within a few days was just normal.

In the Great Gan Dynasty, reaching the realm of Sea Rotation was enough to be called a Patriarchal figure. As the strongest Early Heavenly Nine under the Sea Rotation, he was naturally invincible. As long as he didn't provoke the Ten Great Sects, he could easily manipulate other forces!

Under Ji Xuan's pretentious methods, the reputation of the Taiyi Sect quickly spread within the Great Gan Dynasty, and there was even a vague notion of it being the eleventh major sect!

In the cultivation world, there was a rumor spreading that there was a strong Early Heavenly Nine disciple who claimed to be the second disciple of the Taiyi Sect's Master!

All disciples were Early Heavenly Nine? Then wouldn't the Master be a Sea Rotation powerhouse? For a while, the reputation of the Taiyi Sect soared, and many young members of small families wanted to find out where the Taiyi Sect's gate was located and join the Taiyi Sect!

After all, for the young cultivators of the small families in the Great Gan, it was difficult to climb up to the Ten Great Sects.

Now that there was suddenly an eleventh major sect, everyone wanted to join in the fun.

So, more and more cultivators inquired about the location of the Taiyi Sect's gate. Until the news spread in the cultivation world: three months later, the Taiyi Sect would hold a ceremony to recruit disciples, accepting disciples and followers regardless of their background or talent, as long as they had a pure heart and perseverance, they could join the Taiyi Sect for cultivation.

The cultivation world was once again shocked!

After this news came out, some young members of families were very happy! After all, with the Ten Great Sects sitting at the top, it was difficult to enter them based solely on talent and background. The Taiyi Sect also had a Sea Rotation powerhouse, but they didn't care about background or talent, which was rare!

Countless people with mediocre talents but great perseverance were looking forward to the Taiyi Sect's recruitment ceremony three months later.

As for the Ten Great Sects of the Great Gan Dynasty and the princes who had already become their disciples, they were full of ridicule.

They knew Ji Xuan's identity as an illegitimate prince, so they scoffed and didn't believe that the Taiyi Sect had a Sea Rotation powerhouse. They even claimed that when the Holy Meteor Secret Realm appeared, they would take care of the Taiyi Sect.

On Mount Fangcun, Ji Xuan vividly described the outside world's public opinion to Jiang Chen. It had been half a month since Ji Xuan went down the mountain to cause trouble.

"Master, that's how it is. The news of the disciple recruitment ceremony three months later has been released, and the Great Gan Dynasty is aware of it. The response is very good!" Ji Xuan spoke happily.

This time, under the order of his master, he caused trouble everywhere and earned a lot of arrogance points, which made him very happy! Not only did he break through to the Early Heavenly Nine, but he also accumulated over a thousand arrogance points!

It was one step closer to exchanging for the Chaotic Scripture with nine nines!

"Well done," Jiang Chen praised rarely, then got up and walked towards the main hall, saying lightly, "Ji Xuan, come with me."

Ji Xuan was startled for a moment, and quickly followed.

He knew that he had done his master's task so well, his master must be rewarding him!

Ah— His master was so powerful, what reward would he give him? Could he directly break through to the Sea Rotation realm with this "reward"? Then his ability to flaunt would undergo a qualitative leap!

It was as difficult as ascending to the heavens for a cultivator in the Early Heavenly realm to break through to the Sea Rotation realm. Countless cultivators in the Great Gan were trapped at this level for their entire lives!

And he, Ji Xuan, would become the youngest Sea Rotation Patriarch!

Just imagining it made him feel invincible!

Of course, this was just wishful thinking.

If he relied on treasures from heaven and earth to break through, it would definitely cause instability in his foundation. For the sake of the future, Ji Xuan would absolutely not do this, even if Jiang Chen gave him treasures from heaven and earth, he would not accept them.

"What will Master reward me with in the end?" Ji Xuan was curious. He hurriedly followed Jiang Chen, his steps flying, closely following behind him, and entered the main hall.

When Jiang Chen stopped, Ji Xuan also hurriedly stopped, bowing respectfully, his face full of expectation, making Jiang Chen feel embarrassed if he didn't reward him...

"Heh, you're quite different from your eldest senior brother, more like a mischievous monkey," Jiang Chen chuckled, saying, "So, what reward do you want?"

"Do I have to say it myself?" Ji Xuan was surprised.

"Just say it," Jiang Chen smiled.

Ji Xuan pondered for a moment, contemplating deeply.

He didn't know what Jiang Chen had, or what he could give him. Moreover, it seemed a bit unpleasant for a disciple to ask his master for martial arts or treasures...

But if he didn't ask for a reward, he felt like he was losing out.

Suddenly, Ji Xuan's eyes lit up. He remembered the reason why he came to the Taiyi Sect in the first place and said quickly, "Master, disciple does have an unpleasant request!"

"If it's an unpleasant request, then forget it," Jiang Chen smiled.

"....."

Ji Xuan's mouth twitched a few times. He wondered why his master didn't follow the routine!

"Master! Please help your disciple with this matter!" Ji Xuan's eyes turned around a few times and said, "Master, your disciple is actually an illegitimate prince of the Great Gan Dynasty. I came to the Taiyi Sect to seek a teacher because I was ostracized. At that time, they all said that the Taiyi Sect was a low-class sect. I didn't expect to have the opportunity to become Master's disciple..."

Ji Xuan explained clearly the beginning of his illegitimate prince's usurpation of the royal family's title, and then continued, "This time, we are looking to see which of us princes can gather stronger allies and gain more resources in the Holy Meteor Secret Realm... The Secret Realm is going to open early, in a month's time. If Master is available, I beg Master to accompany your disciple back to the capital for a trip to participate in the Holy Meteor Secret Realm!"

Jiang Chen nodded thoughtfully and asked casually, "Do you want Master to help you seize the throne?"

"No..." Ji Xuan shook his head quickly, explaining, "Those princes bullied your disciple before, and your disciple wants to retaliate against them! Slap their faces!"

"Good! This is my disciple Jiang Chen!" Jiang Chen laughed heartily. He was a very protective person by nature, and seeing his disciple being so vengeful, he was very pleased!

"If you covet the throne, you might as well get out of the Taiyi Sect! Now that I promise you, I will go back with you in the future and support you." Ji Xuan was overjoyed!

He didn't know what realm his master was in, but he could be sure that his master was a powerhouse beyond Sea Rotation! With such a big shot to support him, how could his ability to flaunt not skyrocket? It was one step closer to exchanging for the nine nines of the Chaotic Scripture!

Ji Xuan was excited. At this moment, Jiang Chen's voice sounded again: "Alright, your cultivation is too weak. Forget about the rubbish Great Gan Heart Sutra you're practicing. This martial art is for you. Contemplate it carefully and don't embarrass me when you go out."

Jiang Chen's fingertips moved slightly, and a golden light entered Ji Xuan's mind.

Immediately after, Ji Xuan was dumbfounded... because the so-called martial art was actually...
