Chapter 2489: Chapter 2492: Condensing Another Dao

"Everyone, Jiang Chen has a small selfish request. I need the Necro Spheres of the Earth Path and Thunder Path, and Hu Zi needs the Necro Spheres of the Thunder Path as well, so I’ve picked out all the Necro Spheres of these two Great Daos. I hope you don’t mind!"

Jiang Chen glanced at everyone with a slightly apologetic expression.

In the air, among those two small piles, one had only Thunder Path Necro Spheres, while the other mostly contained Earth Path and some Thunder Path Necro Spheres.

"Mr Jiang, this is not right!"

Lu Xian’s expression became stern as he spoke in a deep voice.

Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback, looking at Lu Xian with surprise.

Everyone else also showed a look of confusion, casting peculiar glances at Lu Xian.

In everyone’s mind, the most effort in the past three months of hunting was made by Jiang Chen. He was already taking quite a small share by agreeing to take only sixty percent with Yan Hu and Jin Hu. Now he’s further dividing it, only taking twenty percent with Yan Hu, reducing it by half again. Lu Xian’s disagreement was incomprehensible.

Yan Li, Yun Hai, and Jin Hu all frowned, while a cold gleam flashed in Yan Hu’s eyes, thinking Lu Xian might betray them after crossing the river, his spiritual power beginning to circulate.

"Then, Lu Xian, what do you think would be appropriate?"

Jiang Chen’s tone also cooled down.

Lu Xian smiled slightly, waved his hand, and some high-level Necro Spheres from the other three piles flew into those two larger piles, making the five piles roughly equal in number.

"That’s more like it. If Mr Jiang thinks it’s too little, we can give you more. After all, we have already profited greatly thanks to you."

Lu Xian said smilingly.

"Yes, that’s how it should be!"

"Indeed, Mr Jiang, your distribution was incorrect just now. This is correct!"

"Exactly, if Mr Jiang thinks it’s not enough, we can divide more!"

Everyone was briefly stunned but then all started shouting with smiles on their faces.

Jiang Chen gave a wry smile, patted Yan Hu’s shoulder, and said helplessly, "Senior Lu Xian, this..."

"Mr Jiang."

Lu Xian’s expression turned serious, saying solemnly, "During these three months, many of my brothers made mistakes, and it was you who saved them each time. Without saying everyone has been saved by you at least once, among these hundred people, at least sixty or seventy owe you their lives. If you take fewer Necro Spheres, we might feel ashamed of ourselves!"

"Yes, Mr Jiang, please accept it!"

"Otherwise, we’d feel embarrassed to follow you in hunting Necro Spirits!"

"Exactly, we’re counting on you to lead us to big gains in the Central Region again!"

All the elites from Wind Thunder Valley simultaneously shouted out.

Jiang Chen looked at everyone, feeling a warmth in his heart, nodded lightly with a smile, "Then I won’t be modest. As long as everyone is willing, when we reach the Central Region, we can have a big triumph again!"

"Great!"

All the strong members from Wind Thunder Valley responded loudly.

Jiang Chen raised his hand to collect the pile with mostly Earth Path and Thunder Path Necro Spheres, while Yan Hu also collected his share. Only then did Jin Hu, Yun Hai, and Yan Li start to collect Necro Spheres.

"Senior Lu Xian, Senior Yan Li, then I will directly set up the Formation for seclusion."

After storing the Necro Spheres, Jiang Chen cupped his fists towards everyone.

"Mr Jiang, feel free to go into seclusion. We will ensure the Necro Spirits do not disturb your training!"

Lu Xian and others responded with light laughter, retreating ten meters away, leaving only Yan Hu by Jiang Chen’s side.

Swish, swish, swish!

A cluster of Spirit Stones flew out, and Jiang Chen set up nearly a thousand Spirit Stones within a ten-meter radius around him, forming several large formations.

When the Formation was activated, a mist covered the scene within it. A light shield flickering with five-colored light appeared around the Formation’s perimeter, thoroughly blocking everyone’s line of sight.

"Yan Li, Mr Jiang has many secrets!"

Watching the Formation activate, Lu Xian approached Yan Li and spoke softly.

"So what?"

Yan Li raised an eyebrow and glanced at Lu Xian.

Lu Xian smiled faintly, "What I mean is, after we’ve cleared the Necro Spirits here, should we assign someone to guard this place to prevent anyone from rushing into the gully and disturbing Mr Jiang? If some of Mr Jiang’s secrets are exposed, it might bring unnecessary trouble to him." 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"You’ve seen it too?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Li instantly understood what secrets Lu Xian was referring to.

"I’m not blind!"

Lu Xian rolled his eyes at Yan Li.

Yan Li smiled gently, then nodded, "Once we’ve cleared the Necro Spirits, if Mr Jiang isn’t out yet, Yun Hai and I will stay. You take Jin Hu and continue the hunt."

"We’re taking Jin Hu?"

Lu Xian glanced over at Jin Hu, who was organizing his Space Ring on the side, and looked back at Yan Li, puzzled.

"It’s Mr Jiang’s wish. Jin Hu has been exploring this Abandoned Plain with his elder brother since he was young. Mr Jiang once asked if he wanted to leave with him, but Jin Hu declined. He seems to have a great foe here too. He wants to cultivate until he’s strong enough to kill that foe before leaving. So, Mr Jiang entrusted us to watch over him a bit."

Yan Li explained softly, glanced at Jin Hu, and said in a low voice, "So I thought, while Mr Jiang is still around, let everyone get to know Jin Hu better. Once Mr Jiang leaves, seeing Jin Hu already integrated with us, he’ll feel assured to leave."

"You’re getting more and more thoughtful!"

Lu Xian chuckled, patting Yan Li’s shoulder, then nodded gently, "Alright, if Mr Jiang hasn’t come out by then, I’ll take him out with us."

After their conversation, the two turned to join the others in continuing to hunt Necro Spirits.

Within the Formation.

Jiang Chen and Yan Hu sat cross-legged on the ground, surrounded by a dense array of Necro Spheres.

Swish, swish!

Three strands of Great Dao Divine Light emerged from the two of them. Yan Hu was enveloped by a deep Thunder Path Great Dao Divine Light, while Jiang Chen was shrouded in both Thunder Path and Earth Path Great Dao Divine Lights. The three strands of Great Dao Divine Light wrapped around the Necro Spheres of the same attribute, beginning to comprehend the Great Dao Comprehension contained within the Necro Spheres.

As the two comprehended, time quietly slipped away. In this state of comprehension, the interior of the Formation remained static for a month.

Buzz!

A month later, an earthen yellow Great Dao Wheel of Light appeared on Jiang Chen’s body surface, slowly rotating.

Jiang Chen opened his eyes, from which two earthen yellow beams shot forth.

He closed them slightly, then reopened, the light in his eyes receding. The Great Dao Wheel of Light returned to his body, and a faint smile curled on Jiang Chen’s lips.

"Finally gathered! Now, there’s only the Thunder Path and the Path of Ice left!"

With a gentle exhalation, Jiang Chen then slightly frowned, "Why don’t the Necro Spirits here produce Necro Spheres of the Path of Ice? Or perhaps, no strong practitioner here in the past comprehended the Path of Ice?"

With a slight shake of the head to dispel the thought, Jiang Chen looked up at Yan Hu, a trace of surprise in his eyes.

At this moment, the Thunder Path Great Dao Divine Light around Yan Hu had already become nearly tangible, yet even so, there were no signs of forming a Great Dao Wheel of Light!
