Chapter 68: Joining Forces, Isn't That Wonderful?
Chapter 68: Joining Forces, Isn't That Wonderful?
'Jiang Chen!'
'It's him, Jiang Chen!'
'He truly entered this Cave Heaven secret realm!'
'Late-stage Spiritual Awakening realm, huh? Hehe, excellent! Jiang Xingyang, today I shall avenge the blood debt!'
'However, I cannot recklessly attack him now.'
'His combat prowess may be as concealed as mine, and he has too many allies beside him!'
'I must carefully observe him and await the ideal opportunity!'
'...'
With these thoughts swirling in his mind, Ye Fan's icy stare receded like a sheathed blade.
Simultaneously.
Within the Azure Jade Sect, another sullen-faced man occasionally cast his gaze upon Ye Fan.
His name was Li Teng.
This very Ye Fan had ruthlessly humiliated him during the sect's combat examination!
This time around.
He wouldn't let Ye Fan off the hook!
'I shall make you wish for death!'
Li Teng thought to himself, then sneered at Jiang Chen with contempt.
What a farce!
Bold enough to ask them to cease?
Just at that moment.
"Everyone, hear me out!"
Jiang Chen spoke once more, "I possess crucial information that pertains to the opportunities we can seize!"
Upon hearing this.
Those who initially intended to disregard Jiang Chen's words and persist in their treasure hunt suddenly grew intrigued, their gazes sharpened!
"Junior Brother Jiang Chen!"
"What are you referring to?"
"How is it that we weren't aware you possessed such crucial information?"
"Indeed, if you hold such vital information, why didn't you share it with us privately instead of making a public announcement?"
"Jiang Chen, don't delay and tell us, what exactly is your intention?"
"..."
Duan Ziming, Xia Ding, Nie Wei, and others regarded Jiang Chen with increased bewilderment, incessantly asking questions.
'Sigh!'
'If only I weren't a villain but rather the protagonist, I'd likely face mockery from the entire sect, only to make a triumphant return and deliver a resounding slap to their faces!'
'Yet, I am a villain, a villain with extremely united senior and junior brothers!'
'Hmm, they do treat me quite well!'
With these thoughts, a contented smile graced Jiang Chen's face.
During this Cave Heaven secret realm expedition, if he had any spare capacity, he would endeavor to safeguard them.
However, if he couldn't even assure his own safety, then he would have no option but to abandon that notion.
"Hey!"
"That Jiang Chen from the Starry Abyss Sect!"
"What kind of information do you possess? Speak up quickly! If we discover you're toying with us, we won't hesitate to flay you alive!"
"That's right, if you have something to say, then get on with it!"
"..."
Numerous people were growing incredibly impatient!
Information regarding the Cave Heaven secret realm was exceedingly valuable!
Why would anyone disclose it publicly?
Thus, it was highly probable that Jiang Chen was merely toying with them!
If not for the immense allure of the Cave Heaven secret realm information, they wouldn't have paid any attention!
From the side of the Starry Abyss Sect.
"Fellow senior and junior brothers!"
"I have my reasons for this course of action, just observe!"
Jiang Chen nodded to Duan Ziming and the others before exclaiming once more:
"I am Jiang Chen from the Starry Abyss Sect, possessing a unique ability to detect spiritual plants. The higher the rank of the spiritual plant, the more easily I can sense it!"
"Logically, I ought to keep this ability hidden and revel in the natural treasures all by myself!"
"However, the Cave Heaven secret realm teems with peril, and I dare not venture in solo to gather spiritual plants."
"Even if our entire Starry Abyss Sect were to join forces, I still lack confidence!"
"It's not that our Starry Abyss Sect is weak, but rather that the risks are simply too immense, and undertaking such a gamble is not worth it!"
Within this Cave Heaven secret realm.
If anyone asserted that it was devoid of dangers,
Jiang Chen would never believe it, even at the cost of his life!
There had to be dangers!
And immense dangers at that!
Dangers potent enough to effortlessly annihilate even a cultivator at the Mysterious Platform realm!
"What?!"
"That Jiang Chen claims he can detect spiritual plants!"
"Impossible, does he believe he's a treasure-seeking spirit rat?!"
"No, this Jiang Chen dares to make such a declaration in public; he must possess genuine abilities!"
"Indeed, his point is that the Cave Heaven secret realm is fraught with dangers! It's excessively risky and not worth it for them to venture in alone! Thus, they wish to collaborate with us!"
"I'm uncertain if that's the case, or perhaps he merely desires to flaunt his skills?"
"Idiot, who would boast in such a manner! He's not some playboy hailing from a wealthy family!"
"..."
Disciples from various sects engaged in animated discussions before refocusing their attention on Jiang Chen.
"Cough, cough!"
"Fellow Daoist friends!"
"This Cave Heaven secret realm is vast! Opportunities abound!"
"Yet consider this, if numerous low-level opportunities exist, wouldn't there also be an abundance of high-level ones?!"
"Undoubtedly, right?!"
"However, those more valuable prospects are likely accompanied by lurking dangers!"
"Individually, none of our sects possess exceptional strength."
"Furthermore, our time is constrained, making it challenging to seize the most exceptional opportunities in such a brief period!"
"Nonetheless, by uniting our efforts, we can potentially forge ahead together, and when confronting hazards, our chances of survival will be enhanced!"
"Upon acquiring these opportunities, we can distribute them according to our contributions in the end the more effort one puts forth, the greater the rewards. Isn't that splendid?!"
Jiang Chen cleared his throat, persistently channeled his Yuan Power, and bellowed loudly!
Upon hearing this statement,
Everyone present exchanged glances.
Indeed!
This Cave Heaven secret realm brimmed with treasures, yet they were not all equal in value; there were rankings among them!
Given the limited time, only the acquisition of higher-ranked treasures would truly be considered a gain!
The dilemma, however,
Was that this marked the first time anyone had ventured into this Cave Heaven secret realm, and consequently, no information existed regarding the whereabouts of the treasures.
In essence, everything surrounding them was shrouded in mystery!
Under such conditions, it proved challenging to deliberately seek out high-level natural treasures.
Furthermore, there were the unforeseen perils.
Contemplating this,
The disciples from various sects abruptly realized that Jiang Chen's words held considerable merit!
"Jiang Chen is right!"
"I believe we should collaborate and explore this treasure-laden realm together, maximizing our gains within the limited time available!"
"Rather than squandering our time on these low-value prospects!"
The Floating Spirit Sect's chief disciple, Mu Tao, a beautiful and curvaceous female cultivator, nodded in agreement.
The Floating Spirit Sect had previously interacted with the Starry Abyss Sect, and their relationship was amicable.
"Yes!"
"I concur that Jiang Chen from the Starry Abyss Sect is indeed accurate."
"We can forge a temporary alliance!"
"Although he can only detect spiritual plants, those alone would suffice for us to return laden with treasures."
"Additionally, we can concurrently seek out other opportunities, primarily to confront hazards collectively!"
"..."
Another sect's chief disciple from the Snowy Wind Continent's Ice Heart School, Miao Xiaorui, a beautiful female disciple as well, expressed her agreement with the proposition.
The two beauties concurred in unison.
Instantly, others couldn't help but speculate whether they were captivated by Jiang Chen's allure.
After all, Jiang Chen was undeniably handsome and possessed considerable charisma.
Particularly after acquiring the Burning World Red Lotus and undergoing a transformation.
As for Jiang Chen, he cast a glance at Ye Fan.
Under typical circumstances, the protagonist was often good-looking and well-received by stunning women.
However, Ye Fan appeared slightly different, possessing average looks. He likely belonged to the category with a solitary heroine or no heroine at all.
Though the two chief female disciples were striking, they merely served as ordinary supporting characters and displayed no interest in Ye Fan.
At this moment.
