Eternal Life: Hundredfold Rewards-Chapter 268 - 165: Tian Hunzi Gravely Wounded!
"But whether Situ Jiang’s actions are right or wrong is truly hard to judge," Jiang Chen thought to himself.
If they don’t compete for the Celestial Spirit Gang Qi, it would be no different from waiting to die.
However, once they fully strive for the Celestial Spirit Gang Qi, it reveals a hint of weakness, arousing suspicion from the Celestial Soul Hall, plunging the Wind Moon Sect into utter turmoil.
Perhaps when a sect is at a disadvantage, no choice is the best choice; one can only make sacrifices.
After forcing Tian Hunzi to retreat, Situ Jiang felt a slight relief in his heart.
For him, as long as the Celestial Soul Hall doesn’t obtain the Celestial Spirit Gang Qi, the bottom line has been met.
Next is to fully fight for the Celestial Spirit Gang Qi for the sect.
However, at the same time, a sense of urgency also arose within him.
The principle Jiang Chen understands, how could Situ Jiang not understand?
Being so impatient certainly reveals some vulnerability to Tian Hunzi and the Celestial Soul Hall. Following this, the situation of the Wind Moon Sect is likely to stir up truly massive waves.
However, he was already prepared to cope.
This time, returning to the Wind Moon Sect, he would consume the item left for him by the Profound Sword True Master from the Sect Treasure Vault, advancing to the Fake Pill Realm.
With the Fake Pill Realm, plus a Tier Three Array and the various tactics left by the Profound Sword True Master, temporarily countering the Celestial Soul Hall should not be a problem.
But the Wind Moon Sect must drastically contract its forces, and in the sect war, a huge price must be paid.
But this is bound to become reality sooner or later, it’s just an early step now.
As long as they can truly seize the Celestial Spirit Gang Qi and slightly increase Qi Chuan’s chance of Core Formation, everything done now is of meaningful value.
Qi Chuan noticed Jiang Chen and the other two were all focused on his master, not paying him any attention, and he didn’t mind.
He knew that the three assumed his Talismans were bestowed by his master, unaware of the fact that he was a Tier Two Upper Grade Talisman Maker himself.
This was a good thing, beneficial for his upcoming competition for the Celestial Spirit Gang Qi.
"However, how will these three plan next?" Qi Chuan gazed heavily at Jiang Chen and the others.
Although Tian Hunzi was kicked aside, there were still three with Foundation Establishment Perfection here, the situation hasn’t improved much, it’s still unclear.
"Two fellow daoists, who knows how many high-tier talismans Situ Jiang has left hidden? It seems he is the strongest among us four and most likely to obtain the Celestial Spirit Gang Qi. In my view, we might as well join forces, kick the Wind Moon Sect out first, then the three of us compete, what do you think?"
Always unemotional towards the Wind Moon Sect, the Myriad Dragons Lizard slightly squinted its eyes, unexpectedly proposing cooperation first. Clearly, in the face of the allure of Celestial Spirit Gang Qi, there are no friends or foes, only obtaining it or not.
"Cooperation?" Upon hearing this, Xiao Dan showed hesitation, glancing at the Myriad Dragons Lizard.
Valley of Myriad Beasts was a rival of the Profound Pill Sect, and the Myriad Dragons Lizard was also his enemy, Xiao Dan. If not necessary, he really didn’t want to cooperate with the Valley of Myriad Beasts or Myriad Dragons Lizard.
However, the situation now is somewhat different.
The Celestial Spirit Gang Qi is right in front of them; temporarily setting aside enmity is not impossible.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang Chen, what do you think?" Xiao Dan didn’t speak directly but turned to look at Jiang Chen from North Magnetic Mountain.
Even for cooperation, it depends on the situation.
If Jiang Chen disagrees and watches from the sidelines, then relying solely on him and the originally hostile Myriad Dragons Lizard to oppose Situ Jiang is impractical.
He doesn’t trust the Myriad Dragons Lizard, nor does he want Jiang Chen to watch from the sidelines.
So if Jiang Chen denies this proposal, then he likewise will not choose to cooperate with the Myriad Dragons Lizard.
"...This plan is feasible." Upon Xiao Dan’s inquiry, Jiang Chen glanced at the Myriad Dragons Lizard and Xiao Dan, observing their expressions before slightly pondering and nodding.
"This is the best scenario." The Myriad Dragons Lizard laughed aloud, then turned to Situ Jiang, saying, "Fellow Daoist Situ, presently, the three of us against you have an absolute advantage. Do you still think you have a chance for the Celestial Spirit Gang Qi? To prevent worse outcomes, you should just withdraw."
"Fellow Daoist Situ, you have prevented the Celestial Soul Hall from obtaining the Celestial Spirit Gang Qi. Your goal is already achieved. Withdrawing now is the best choice," Xiao Dan added.
Jiang Chen didn’t speak, just quietly gazing at Situ Jiang, but his expression was clear.
Qi Chuan looked at his master; there were no surprises for him regarding his master’s next decision.
Indeed, under everyone’s gaze, Situ Jiang sighed, lowering his eyelids and speaking slowly, "Three fellow daoists, since I have devoted myself to this Langya Spirit Realm, I’ve naturally made all preparations. I also know, without showing an undeniable determination and absolute confidence and means, you three will most likely not easily give up the Celestial Spirit Gang Qi that is within reach."
"Then, forgive my presumption..."
As his words fell, Situ Jiang wiped the Qiankun Bag at his waist with his palm, and then a stack of sixty Tier Two Top Grade Talismans appeared in his hand.
As soon as he took them out, they all tore open simultaneously, transforming into dozens of terrifying Talisman attacks, splitting into three torrents, sweeping towards Jiang Chen and his companions.
Qi Chuan, seeing this scene, didn’t take action.
He had entered the ranks of Tier Two Upper Grade Talisman Master relatively late, didn’t have many Talismans prepared, and earlier his more than a hundred Tier Two Upper Grade Celestial Thunder Talismans had exhausted his collection.
He could only relish in observing his master’s actions.
"This guy is simply crazy!"
Witnessing Situ Jiang once again deploying sixty Tier Two Top Grade Talismans, even the Myriad Dragons Lizard couldn’t help but curse. A single strand of Celestial Spirit Gang Qi could increase the Core Formation probability slightly, but it’s ultimately just a slight increase.
It doesn’t absolutely guarantee someone’s Core Formation.
Spending all of the sect’s collection to seize a single strand of Celestial Spirit Gang Qi, and arousing the Celestial Soul Hall’s suspicion, if Situ Jiang couldn’t succeed in forming a core after using this Celestial Spirit Gang Qi, wouldn’t it all be for nothing? 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
But regardless of how much the Myriad Dragons Lizard cursed, a terrifying torrent of twenty Tier Two Top Grade Talisman attacks had already swept before it, and it had no choice but to continuously pat the Qiankun Bag and Spirit Pet Bag at its waist, summoning several Tier Two and Top Grade artifacts, the remaining Tier Two Talismans, and even its Foundation Establishment Late Stage Spirit Pet, the Nine Flames Dragon Prison Lizard, to withstand that terrifying torrent of Talisman attacks.
"Damn!"
Xiao Dan cursed as well.
He blamed the Myriad Dragons Lizard for the idea, as Situ Jiang now was clearly not someone easy to provoke, and because of the Myriad Dragons Lizard’s proposal, he got dragged into this.
Such a degree of Talisman attack, even if he could withstand it, the cost would be enormous, all because of the Myriad Dragons Lizard’s proposal.
"Perhaps the Wind Moon Sect cannot be stopped from obtaining the Celestial Spirit Gang Qi, given its weakness. Letting them have it could better maintain the balance in the Land of the Five Sects," Jiang Chen sighed, then also patted the Qiankun Bag at his waist, summoning forth some artifacts and Talismans.
Boom boom!
As Jiang Chen and the other two applied their methods to fend off the massive Talisman attack torrents, the terrifying shockwaves rolled through the blue-black lake like layers of tsunamis, creating an alarming spectacle.
In front of Qi Chuan, dazzling sunlike radiance filled his vision, and the terrifying battle aftershocks swept towards his position, making it impossible to ignore. He had to exercise the Spirit Devouring Sword Gang divine technique, a layer of faint golden Spirit Devouring Sword Gang appeared on his body’s surface, surrounding him within.
"Just don’t know, what will be the final result of this situation?"
