Chapter 2505 2479 Refusal (Nine Updates)
Chapter 2505: Chapter 2479: Refusal! (Nine Updates) Chapter 2505: Chapter 2479: Refusal! (Nine Updates) With her current talent, Chu Ying is entirely qualified to join the Divine Extreme Sect. As for Yin Ming, it’s not that Ye Chen doesn’t want to bring her along, it’s just that with her current strength, the Divine Extreme Sect would be too dangerous for her, and also, she does not meet the standards for entry.
And Lin Yaqin, though she could barely qualify to join, with her personality, how would she be willing to enter the Divine Extreme Sect with Ye Chen’s help?
Chu Ying nodded, her beautiful eyes shimmering with light. Originally, she wasn’t particularly interested in martial arts, but after the incident with Mu Ye, her desire for strength became unprecedented!
Even if she couldn’t help Ye Chen, the least she could do was not to hold him back!
And to enhance her strength, the first-class forces of the Divine Kingdom are naturally the most suitable!
…
Ten days later, Ye Chen and Chu Ying arrived at the peak of Mang Mountain, the day he had agreed to meet with Tu Lanxin.
The two stood atop the mountain’s summit, amidst a sea of clouds, when suddenly, a figure flashed in the void—a woman dressed in a black gauze dress with a veil, her aura extremely cold and intimidating, appeared before them.
Ye Chen and Chu Ying respectfully saluted to Tu Lanxin, saying, “We pay respects to the fairy.”
Tu Lanxin looked at Chu Ying with some surprise and asked, “Who is she?”
Ye Chen said, “She is Chu Ying. May she join the Divine Extreme Sect with me?”
Tu Lanxin’s beautiful eyes, gleaming with a hint of violet light, stared at Chu Ying. In an instant, Chu Ying felt as if she were completely seen through, from the inside out.
After a moment, Tu Lanxin showed a trace of surprise, then nodded and said, “A Life and Death Body? She is indeed sufficient to join our sect. Alright, let’s go.”
With a wave of her hand, Tu Lanxin led Ye Chen and Chu Ying as they rose into the air, breaking through the void, and flew away at breakneck speed.
In the midst of the void, amidst the terrifying space turbulence, space storms, and void thunderbolts—that all seemed like nothing to Tu Lanxin. They struck her Protective Gang Qi without even causing a ripple before dissipating into nothingness.
Half a day later, three figures suddenly appeared in the sky.
In front of them was a magnificent and towering mountain that soared into the clouds!
Ye Chen looked up, also awed by this incredibly tall Divine Mountain. At its summit, there was a thick beam of light that reached straight to the Sealed Gate!
Ye Chen knew that this was the divine pillar of the Divine Extreme Sect!
He had also seen a divine pillar within the Shenxuan Sect, but the divine pillar of the Shenxuan Sect was only as thick as an arm.
It was not even one ten-thousandth the size of the one here!
What shocked Ye Chen even more was the spiritual energy here!
It was so dense that it had condensed into colorful ribbons, swirling around the entire colossal Divine Mountain!
Just by floating outside this Divine Mountain, without even intentionally circulating spiritual energy, but merely breathing, Ye Chen felt a sense of comfort throughout his body, and his level of cultivation seemed to have subtly increased!
One could imagine just how dense the spiritual energy would be once one truly entered the sect!
Is this the Divine Extreme Sect?
Indeed, it is a Holy Land for cultivation!
Tu Lanxin waved her hand, and from within her bosom, a delicate token flew out, emitting a brilliance upon which, an invisible fluctuation arose before the massive mountain—an entrance opened specifically for Tu Lanxin.
Tu Lanxin, with Ye Chen and Chu Ying, flew into it, heading towards the summit where the Divine Extreme Sect stood majestically, like a crouching dragon atop Divine Mountain.
On the way, Ye Chen saw many disciples of the Divine Extreme Sect, yet with Tu Lanxin leading both of them, they encountered no hindrance at all. On the contrary, everyone who saw Tu Lanxin’s golden bolt of lightning fly by paid their respects very deferentially.
At the same time, inwardly, Ye Chen was somewhat shocked!
The Divine Extreme Sect truly lived up to its reputation as a First-class force; along the way, most of the martial artists he saw were at or above the Great Void Calamity division of realms, with some even being more perilous!
Ye Chen’s eyes flickered with resolve. It seemed he needed to fiercely enhance his strength.
Soon, Tu Lanxin led Ye Chen to a grand hall at the summit.
However, upon entering the grand hall, Tu Lanxin’s brow furrowed slightly.
To her surprise, the grand hall was eerily empty, not a single person in sight!
After a moment of silence, Tu Lanxin apologized to Ye Chen, “Originally, I arranged for you to undergo the true disciple assessment. In our Divine Extreme Sect, the assessment is always carried out by seven elders who personally test the disciples. Upon passing, one of the elders would take them in as a disciple. But now…”
A flicker of understanding crossed Ye Chen’s eyes, and he said, “It seems that these elders have no intention of accepting me as an entry-level disciple, right?”
Tu Lanxin replied, “After all, you possess only Sealed Gate Sect Cultivation. My decision to make an exception and bring you into the Divine Extreme Sect has displeased several elders.
Moreover, they probably believe you can’t pass the trial. Normally, disciples capable of entering the Divine Extreme Sect, despite being monstrously talented, must start as servant-disciples. Only by standing out in their respective institute, becoming the most outstanding among them, can they progressively climb up and have the opportunity to be assessed for true discipleship…”
Ye Chen nodded; he’d heard all this from Elder Gu. The Divine Extreme Sect was divided into Servant Institute, Outer Court, Inner Courtyard, and only above the Inner Courtyard was the tier of true disciples.
Even the lowest requirements for the Servant Institute were demanding. In other words, by the division of realms, Ye Chen was at the very bottom among servant-disciples.
Tu Lanxin said, “Ye Chen, you and Chu Ying wait here for a while. I will call the elders over to conduct the assessment. They should still respect my face.”
But at that moment, Ye Chen said indifferently, “There’s no need.”
A cold glint flashed in his eyes as he spoke, “Look down on me? Very well, then I, Ye Chen, will never seek to become their disciple, not now, not ever!”
Ye Chen was, deep down, an extremely prideful person!
Since these elders looked down on him, why should he bother becoming their disciple?
Start as a servant disciple? What of it? He was confident that even on his own, he could still become the most dazzling figure within the Divine Extreme Sect!
And when that time came, those who regretted would only be the elders who refused to show up today!
Today you disregard me; tomorrow, I’ll be beyond your reach!
Tu Lanxin, frowning, said, “Ye Chen, don’t be rash. With your talents, you can definitely pass the true disciple assessment. Starting as a servant-disciple is a complete waste of time. You should know how precious time is for someone of your monstrous talents, and moreover, the difference in Martial Cultivation Resources between servant-disciples and true disciples is like heaven and earth!”
In Tu Lanxin’s heart, some anger simmered. If Ye Chen was someone she had high hopes for, his potential should be something the Divine Extreme Sect would leverage its entire strength to cultivate—an equivalent to an untapped, vast gold mine!
