At this moment, Chen Changsheng stood with his hands behind his back, exuding an air of maturity.
However, when the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals saw him acting like this, they all burst into laughter. "Kid, this has nothing to do with you. If you don't want to die, get lost now!"
Chen Changsheng narrowed his eyes. "What a rude bunch. I already gave you a chance. Offending the dignity of Changsheng Palace is unforgivable!"
With a cold snort, Chen Changsheng immediately used the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Trial Card!
"Hahaha, kid, I'd like to see how it's unforgivable—ah! This aura... who are you?!"
The Heavenly Soldiers and Generals had sensed no fluctuation of aura from Chen Changsheng and had not taken him seriously. But now, the aura within him surged explosively, instantly reaching a level where he could easily crush them.
"Listen well! I am Chen Changsheng, master of Changsheng Palace! Prepare to die!"
Chen Changsheng shouted, and the pressure of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal was far beyond what a few Heavenly Soldiers and Generals could withstand.
Moreover, Chen Changsheng had never intended to let them leave alive. After all, he only had one Trial Card. If Haotian learned of this and sent more people, it would be troublesome.
Thus, he had harbored killing intent from the very beginning. In the blink of an eye, every Heavenly Soldier and General present was crushed to death!
Yang Jian was dumbfounded beside him. He had originally thought he would be unable to escape disaster today, but he had never expected Chen Changsheng's appearance to resolve these pursuers so easily.
Thinking of this, Yang Jian hurriedly bowed. "Yang Jian thanks Immortal for saving my life!"
Chen Changsheng was still immersed in the power of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal. Only when he heard Yang Jian speak did he come back to his senses!
Yang Jian Joins the Changsheng Sect
Looking at Yang Jian, Chen Changsheng felt extremely satisfied. Yang Jian was still only a mortal, yet when facing the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, he had not only shown no fear but had declared that he would make them all regret it one day.
Hmm! This kid is not bad. To possess such spirit at such a young age, no wonder he would achieve so much in the future.
Chen Changsheng nodded. He had not forgotten that the purpose of this trip was to take on a disciple. Without further hesitation, he struck while the iron was hot. "Yang Jian, you and I are fated today. Are you willing to become my disciple?"
Yang Jian was overjoyed when he heard this. His mother had been captured, while his father, elder brother, and younger sister were of unknown fate. What he lacked most now was strength.
But he knew that he could not gain any real strength by relying on himself alone. Therefore, the best way was to join one of those sects.
Chen Changsheng had just effortlessly annihilated all the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals present, greatly shocking Yang Jian. If he could become this man's disciple and cultivate his techniques, then rescuing his mother and reuniting his family would not be impossible in the future.
Moreover, Yang Jian knew that the Heavenly Court would not stop hunting him. Right now, he needed a suitable place to take refuge and enough time to cultivate.
With that in mind, Yang Jian hurriedly bowed. "This disciple, Yang Jian, pays respects to Master!"
Done!
Chen Changsheng chuckled. He had not expected that he, too, would have his very first disciple!
Ding! Congratulations, Host, on successfully taking in a disciple! Reward: one Scripture Pavilion, along with an increase in cultivation!
Chen Changsheng immediately felt his body fill with spiritual energy.
His eyes lit up at once. Besides the Scripture Pavilion, there was also such a benefit!
The Dao Integration realm was already the highest realm mortals could attain. Beyond it lay the Immortal Realm.
He had not expected that merely completing a disciple-taking mission would bring him directly to this realm!
Chen Changsheng was overjoyed, and when he looked at Yang Jian, he became even more satisfied.
"Since you have entered my sect, follow me back to the palace!"
Yang Jian nodded excitedly, then returned to Changsheng Palace with Chen Changsheng.
"Changsheng Palace! Master, is this our sect?"
Looking at the three magnificent characters, Yang Jian grew even more excited. How could a sect that dared to proclaim immortality be some insignificant little outfit?
Chen Changsheng nodded with a bitter smile. He could hardly tell Yang Jian that the name had only come from the wishful thinking of generations of sect masters!
The two then entered through the gates. The moment Yang Jian stepped inside, he was stunned!
It had to be said that Changsheng Palace occupied quite a large area, but beyond the gate, as far as the eye could see, there was only a single palace. Everything else was a barren stretch of land.
What puzzled Yang Jian most was that after entering the palace gates, the entire Changsheng Palace was silent as death. Where was the grandeur of those great sects?
"Th-This! Master, how many people do we have?"
Yang Jian looked at Chen Changsheng. He could only hope that the sect's disciples had all gone out on business, rather than things being as he feared.
Chen Changsheng let out a soft sigh. "Our sect has declined. There are only the two of us now. And you are also the current first disciple of Changsheng Palace!"
"Ah!"
Yang Jian was instantly shocked. He had thought he had found a powerful backer, but he had never expected Chen Changsheng to be nothing more than a lone commander.
Furthermore, although the sect grounds were large, many places had already fallen into disrepair. How far could he possibly cultivate in a place like this?
For a moment, regret filled Yang Jian's heart. In a place like this, who knew how long he would have to wait before he could rescue his mother?
As if seeing through Yang Jian's thoughts, Chen Changsheng gave a light laugh.
If it were the Changsheng Palace of old, it naturally could not accommodate a great figure like you, Yang Jian. But things are different now. I have the System's support—could my vast System resources really fail to make something of you?
Thinking this, Chen Changsheng directly waved his hand, and a massive tower suddenly appeared before Yang Jian's eyes.
