Chapter 1223: 1223
The roots of the Divine Tree of Creatures almost extended to every inch of the land of the Divine Prison Continent . However, the tree branches were quite sparse, especially at the periphery . The fierce beasts that had been scared into escaping returned to their dens again .

At the center of the divine tree, Jiang Chen gathered with those who had not left . Shangguan Ru and Han Cong’er were leaving, but Jiang Chen stopped them . “The Western School and the Ancient Race will probably try to get revenge against you on your way home . I’ll send you back,” said Jiang Chen .
“We don’t want to give you so much trouble . ” The two women thought Jiang Chen was going to escort them back in person .
“No trouble at all . ” To their surprise, Jiang Chen deployed a portal connected to the Shangguans .
“You’ve prepared for it . ” Deploying a portal would need techniques and some necessary materials . The practicing body Luo Cheng had prepared these things .
“The three academies aren’t going to allow you to do this . The name of your force is especially a problem . It’s too high-profile,” Shangguan Ru said to him through holy awareness before leaving .
The Divine Tree of Creatures and the Heavenly Palace had given too much information away . Jiang Chen did not say anything . He just nodded .
After the two women had left, Jiang Chen saw Xie Ting out . “If the chamber of commerce still wants to collaborate with me, the Heavenly Palace would be delighted,” said Jiang Chen .
“I’ll pass your message on to the chamber of commerce . ” Xie Ting had not gotten used to the identity change of Master Luo Cheng yet . She looked a bit awkward .
Besides the three women, quite a few other people were still there: the Saint of All Beginnings, Lin Tian, and Lin Tianjian . And of course, Lin Yu, who would absolutely stay .
“You have to choose one of them to resist the pressure of the other two,” the Saint of All Beginnings said to him .
“I’ve thought about it . ”

The two had had a fight in the Three Middle Realms, but they did not have any friendship with each other . She was now a Martial Emperor . Her fighting power had surpassed Jiang Chen’s, certainly, only in terms of state .
“The competition among the three academies is also the competition of the three great forces in the Realm of Heaven Martial Arts,” said Lin Tian . Exchanging a look, he and the saint left .
“Is your sword doctrine predominant over the Eternal Doctrine of Sword?” That was the only thing Lin Tianjian wanted to figure out .
“My sword doctrine is predominant over everything in the world,” said Jiang Chen .
His words made Lin Tianjian tremble and gasp . Then he flew away with the other disciples of the Sword Tower .
“Thank you, senior . You helped me several times today . ” Jiang Chen lifted his head to express his gratitude to the vice headmaster of Yaoguang .
“You would have been doing great even without me,” the vice headmaster of Yaoguang answered . It sounded like a reproach, but, in fact, it was just an objective statement . This vice headmaster was a martial arts geek . He did not know too much about the ways of the world . “I’ve completed my mission . I’m going back . ” The Yaoguang Holy Land had promised to offer protection to Master Luo Cheng so that he could stay safe during the banquet . Despite some accidents, it had ended up well .
Jiang Chen saw the vice headmaster out . Then he returned to the center of the Divine Tree of Creatures .
“Are you ready to do something great?” Looking at the expectant Lin Yu, Jiang Chen asked with a smile .
At the same time, everything that had happened at the banquet spread across the Realm of Heaven Martial Arts . It took less than two hours for the sanctity-level, the heaven-level, and the spirit-level continents to be informed of the news . It had nothing to do with communication channels . It was only because anything that happened concerning the banquet was fodder for gossip . The guests had been telling the outside world what had been happening in the banquet even before it ended . Someone even recorded the whole banquet with recording reels, which was quite commendable . Then he sold the recordings at a high price . Its price broke the record among commodities of the same type . And the demand was still greater than the supply .

It was mainly because the hearsay sounded too absurd—such as that Master Luo Cheng was Jiang Chen’s practicing body; Jiang Chen had become the strongest man among all races; Jiang Chen had killed the dual-pupils wielder Ji Yuan; more shockingly, Jiang Chen killed a Wizard Emperor who was as great as a Martial Arts Saint; and ten-odd strong warriors died in the Divine Tree of Creatures .
Each of these nuggets could take the world by storm . But then they came all together . There was too much information . People could not help but feel suspicious . However, when they gathered together and played the recording reel, they realized everything was d*mn real!
That was how everyone was feeling .
How could such absurd things be real?
Feeling shocked, they could hardly believe it .
“How on earth did this Jiang Chen become so strong? No force was willing to train him . ”
Some jealous people could not figure it out . He defeated Ji Yuan despite the lack of resources .
“It’s not that no force was willing to train Jiang Chen . In fact, no force is qualified to train him . ”
However, Jiang Chen also won some admirers . When they saw Jiang Chen frustrate all of the Ancients and avenge the human beings in the recording, they felt hot-blooded and proud .
“Gorgeous . He is too gorgeous . ”
Seeing Jiang Chen kill Ji Yuan’s false selves again and again and finally kill the true self with a palm attack, most people’s breaths were taken away .

“This man has great luck . ”
Then people saw the Devil Slaughter Tower, the thing that could be compared to an immortal weapon . Some people even thought it was a holy weapon .
“It must be the Invincible God of War’s inheritance . ”
It was not simply by luck that Jiang Chen had gotten such a treasure . It was also because of his performance in the Title Battle held in the Three Middle Realms .
“But why is this Jiang Chen so impulsive every time?” Some people were puzzled about that .
Jiang Chen became the strongest man among all races . He owned the Divine Tree of Creatures . Wherever he went, he would be the center of attention . And he was also a master who literally knew everything . The three academies would absolutely try everything they could to curry favor with him . However, he had founded his own force and given it such a provocative name . He obviously wanted things to happen . He wanted to be in the firing line .
“He could have chosen to enjoy all this . ”
“But it’s exactly because he made such a choice that he made the human divine body successful . ”
Some people thought Jiang Chen was stupid, while others thought him unique, and he probably would be able to make the Heavenly Palace a success . Half a day later, people started to look forward to the biggest fight ever . Neither the Wizard Race nor the three academies would allow the Heavenly Palace to exist . Besides, there were so many treasures on the Divine Tree of Creatures . How could they allow a Star Venerable to have them all? Since the new force had just been started, it was the best time to attack it .
However, soon people found there was no disturbance at all . The three academies were surprisingly quiet . Many people felt it was weird .
“Jiang Chen is not just a Star Venerable,” some people realized . Jiang Chen had the ability to kill a Martial Arts Saint, and he could do it without effort . And because of the existence of the Divine Tree of Creatures, if they attacked him rashly, they would suffer a great loss .
“The Wizard Race went to the Realm of Nine Heavens!”
More shocking news arrived when people were feeling disappointed .
“The Realm of Nine Heavens? That’s where Jiang Chen is from . The Wizard Race went there to avenge themselves!”
“Jiang Chen’s entire family is in the Realm of Nine Heavens . Looks like many people will die . ”
“As far as I know, aside from Ji Yuan, the Wizard Race lost many warriors . They certainly had more value than Jiang Chen’s family . ”
“How can you see human life this way? What matters is how people feel about each other . ”
“Jiang Chen will go mad . ”
The Wizard Race acted without thinking . When people heard the news, they had already traveled through the Three Middle Realms and arrived in the Three Lower Realms . Even if Jiang Chen went to the rescue, he would not be able to save anyone . Besides, once he left the Divine Tree of Creatures, he probably would not be able to resist the Wizard Race . That was exactly why the Wizard Race had chosen to do what they did .
