Chapter 722 - 300: Oh My God! They Want to Restore the Thunderfire Alchemy Peak!

Regarding the Chen Family, actually, there are many discussions among these bloggers who explain Taoist sects.

Especially the current Patriarch Chen is very famous, and many people even speculate about his status in the Taoist sects.

It’s just that this Daoist Chen has never worn a formal Daoist robe; the most he has worn is a plain Daoist robe, so many people believe Daoist Chen actually doesn’t have any rank.

However, last time, when the Chen Family and Linhe County collaborated on Daoist Qingfeng’s palace and temple, Patriarch Chen wore a purple robe.

At that time, someone in the chat group said that Patriarch Chen was at the Purple Robe Level; otherwise, how dare he wear purple in such a setting?

But this statement was overturned by the group leader.

This group leader is a veteran among these bloggers. He cited many examples at the time, explaining to everyone the definition and style of the Purple Robe, proving that the purple robe worn by Patriarch Chen was nothing.

What is the purple robe worn by Daoist Chen now?

Just happened to see the lively chat in the ’Taoist Heritage Enthusiasts’ group, discussing precisely matters related to the Chen Family.

At first, someone said that the Chen Family member won the 100-meter championship at the National Games, and then someone said the Chen Family possesses True Martial Arts, which is confirmed by the Taoist sects as a place with True Martial Arts, likely an issue of the Taoist sects’ legitimacy.

At this time, the group leader spoke again: "Two young members of the Chen Family won the 100-meter championship at the National Games, which shows the Chen Family indeed has True Martial Arts."

"Martial arts training contributing to physical development is normal, but this doesn’t have much to do with the Taoist sects, nor does it relate to whether the Chen Family is the legitimate Taoist sect."

"The legitimate Taoist sect now has a unified standard, acknowledged by the sects and associations, granting the title of Mage, awarding the purple robes, and providing certificates. That’s the legitimate Taoist sect."

"The Chen Family certainly doesn’t have any of these, and the purple robe worn by Patriarch Chen last time wasn’t a Taoist Purple Robe."

Zhang Ke saw these words and directly pointed the phone toward Patriarch Chen, taking a video and sending it to the group.

Soon the chat group became lively again:

"Holy crap, isn’t this Patriarch Chen?"

"Is this a purple robe?"

"It definitely is a purple robe, I can recognize it."

"..."

Many people even tagged the group leader.

Zhang Ke could imagine how awkward the group leader must be at this moment?

Moments later, he saw the group leader tagging him.

Group Leader: Where did this video come from? Do you know that the purple robe is exclusive to the Taoist Mage, and using other purple robe mage videos for AI face-swapping is highly disrespectful.

Zhang Ke was speechless, so he took another video and sent it to the group. This time, not only was there Patriarch Chen, but also Daoist Li, Celestial Master Zhang, and those Purple Robe Daoists.

There were even those Cyan Robe Daoists like Daoist Profound Master.

Those in this group are basically bloggers explaining Taoist knowledge; many also go to local Taoist palaces and temples to shoot videos, so they have a certain understanding of Taoist sects.

Thus, they could see how powerful the lineup in this video was.

In a fantasy world, it’s where Taoist experts gather, capable of slaying dragons and vanquishing demons.

Many in the group tagged Zhang Ke, astonishedly asking:

"Is this Wudang? What’s going on?"

"Daoist Chen really is wearing a purple robe; this scene isn’t fake."

"With so many Taoist big shots gathered, what’s really happening?"

"..."

Zhang Ke saw these inquiries and immediately typed with pretended mystery: "Want to know, come watch my live stream!"

Just as he clicked send, he received a notification: "You’ve been kicked out of the group!"

"Damn!" Zhang Ke couldn’t help but curse.

This was retaliation.

However, he didn’t bother with this matter, immediately took out his Tiao Yin account to start a live stream, and wrote a title: "Revealing the true identity of Patriarch Chen to you!"

Patriarch Chen and the Chen Family were already very popular, whether from the previous rapeseed flower incident or the Chen Family prodigy’s record-breaking 100-meter feat, winning the championship.

His title, being a bit sensationalist, quickly attracted many people under such hype.

Upon starting the live stream, he promptly focused the camera on Patriarch Chen and those Daoists there.

Having videotaped Taoist knowledge explanations for so long, he had accumulated some followers, typically having over 100 people watching his live streams.

But this time, right after starting the broadcast, the number of viewers in the live stream quickly surpassed 100, then rapidly reached 500 online viewers.

Then it hit 1000 viewers.

This made him smile uncontrollably.

The viewers who entered the live stream were clearly attracted by the scene being broadcast.

"Wow, so many purple robes, what happened?"

"Counted them, are all the Taoist Purple Robes present?"

"The streamer is impressive; is this a major Taoist event? And you managed to sneak in and live stream it?"

"Holy crap, that’s Patriarch Chen, and he’s wearing a purple robe?"

"It’s indeed a purple robe, just like Celestial Master Zhang, Daoist Qingwei, and the others."

"..."

When Zhang Ke zoomed the live camera closer to Patriarch Chen’s position again, the viewers in the live stream obviously boiled over.

Patriarch Chen is very well-known, but people don’t really know what role he plays or his status in the Taoist sects.

After all, when Patriarch Chen erected the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable Statue earlier, he only wore a plain Daoist robe.

This is the most basic Daoist robe.

Wearing such a robe at important occasions shouldn’t mean he holds any significant status?

But now, what did they see?

Daoist Chen wearing a purple robe, mingling with those Purple Robe Daoists, greeting each other.

Or rather, Daoist Chen walked over, and those Purple Robe Daoists all proactively greeted him.

Turns out Patriarch Chen was hiding his true prowess.

Zhang Ke indeed chose a very good timing, coupled with so many Purple Robe Daoists gathered together, it was truly astonishing.
