Mount Wu Dan, Assembly Hall.
At the head sat Zhang Zhichu, with Jiang Chen and the others on his left, and a few elder Daoists led by Yu Xiangqian on his right, Zhang Zhiyuan standing behind Zhang Zhichu.
"Master Zhang."
Jiang Chen took six spirit stones and two Dao fruits out of his pocket: "These are the items I retrieved from that thief. I believe there’s nothing else of value in that Secret Realm!"
"Indeed."
Zhang Zhichu glanced at the items Jiang Chen placed on the side table and nodded lightly: "Inside the cave is another realm; however, what’s left is just an altar and a trace of the Great Dao Aura as Dragon Elder and a few others ntioned, nothing more!"
"Master Zhang!"
Jiang Chen continued: "From that thief, I also managed to seize two Dao Seeds. They are seeds of the Great Dao and are extrely rare Yin Yang Dao Seeds. However, I cannot return those to you, as I have great use for them. I hope Master Zhang will understand!"
Zhang Zhichu was slightly taken aback, casting a surprised glance at Jiang Chen, but his eyes soon showed a pleased smile.
If Jiang Chen hadn’t spoken up, they wouldn’t have even known about the Yin Yang Dao Seeds, yet Jiang Chen did ntion it. That alone was enough to prove Jiang Chen’s sincerity!
"Yin Yang Dao Seeds? Are they the seeds of the Taiji Yin Yang Great Dao?"
Yu Xiangqian’s eyes lit up sharply, and he spoke urgently.
"Taiji Yin Yang Great Dao Seeds!?"
"Is this the Dao Seed ntioned in the ancestral records about the path of the Great Dao?"
"Do such Dao Seeds really exist? Did our forebears understand this Great Dao and then break through and depart!?"
The other elder Daoists called out, one after another.
Jiang Chen was slightly confused, blinking: "Taiji Yin Yang Great Dao? What is that?"
"Mr. Jiang doesn’t know?"
Yu Xiangqian was montarily stunned, softly explaining: "The Taiji Yin Yang Great Dao was created by our sect’s ancestor Real Zhang. Since ancient tis, Yin opposed Yang, light opposed darkness, the rging of light and darkness is Yin and Yang union, where Yin and Yang converge, Taiji is born, known as the Taiji Yin Yang Great Dao!"
"Uh..."
Jiang Chen was taken aback, smiling wryly: "I don’t quite get it, but the Yin Yang Dao Seed is indeed a combination of the Bright Great Dao Seed and the Dark Great Dao Seed, evolving into the Yin Yang Dao Seed! Moreover, it has now transford into an Extre Dao Seed!"
"Extre Dao? What is Extre Dao?"
Yu Xiangqian inquired, puzzled, looking at Jiang Chen.
"Extre Dao is what occurs when a basic Great Dao has evolved to its utmost extent: the Extre of Water is Ice, the Extre of Light is Life, the Extre of Darkness is Destruction..."
Now it was Jiang Chen’s turn to explain to Yu Xiangqian.
"So that’s how it is, then it’s no use!"
Yu Xiangqian sighed lightly: "Mr. Jiang, we don’t wish for the Yin Yang Dao Seed, only to observe it, to see if our cultivation has taken a wrong path, but now it’s unnecessary! Our cultivation is Yin and Yang, not Life and Destruction!"
"In fact, the Life Path and the Destruction Path are evolutions of the Bright path and the Dark path. You too can gain insight from it, but... the Dao Seed I cannot take out right now, I apologize!"
Jiang Chen explained a bit, then voiced his apology.
Yu Xiangqian and the elder Daoists were montarily stunned. They had already given up on the Yin Yang Dao Seed, and Jiang Chen could have easily glossed over the topic, yet he still explained things clearly, earning the nods of agreent from the elder Daoists.
"Mr. Jiang’s open-heartedness, as an old Daoist, I admire greatly!"
Yu Xiangqian raised his hand in a salute, looking at Jiang Chen with eyes full of respect.
Not everyone can be as honest as Jiang Chen!
"Mr. Jiang, do take the Dao Seed with you, and not just that, even these Dao fruits and spirit stones, please do take them!"
Zhang Zhichu suddenly spoke.
Everyone was montarily stunned, looking at Zhang Zhichu in surprise.
Zhang Zhichu stated solemnly: "I can feel the boundless power in these spirit stones, and I know how valuable these Dao fruits must be. Otherwise, people from the Void Nether wouldn’t risk everything to steal them, nor would Mr. Jiang so earnestly have Elder Long and Elder A’erfa guard them here."
"Precisely because of its importance, I wish to request Mr. Jiang to take them!"
Zhang Zhichu’s eyes showed a hint of respect: "For Yuan Star, for the world, Mr. Jiang has sacrificed so much, and I deeply admire it. Now, with the tense situation and the outbreak of war, our Wu Dan’s strength is far too weak to make a significant contribution. I will learn from Mr. Jiang, hoping Mr. Jiang could use these items in appropriate places, contributing to the great battle would be Wu Dan’s fortune!"
"Indeed! Mr. Jiang, please take these items!"
"That’s right, this battle concerns all Yuan Star cultivators. Besides, these items were retrieved by Mr. Jiang, so they should rightfully be taken by Mr. Jiang!"
Yu Xiangqian and others urged, one after another.
Jiang Chen paused, smiling gratified: "Everyone, given the tense war situation, I’ll be straightforward. The Dao fruits, I’ll find suitable people to consu them; as for the spirit stones... perhaps they can give us a bit more confidence!"
"Mr. Jiang, you can make arrangents as you see fit!"
Zhang Zhichu said with a soft laugh.
"Very well, then we’ll take our leave!"
Jiang Chen nodded gently, stood up to bid farewell.
Zhang Zhichu and the others stood up to see them off at the doorway.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Jiang Chen and his companions soared into the sky, heading towards Dingjing.
West Suburb of Dingjing, the valley where dicine Saint once resided.
At this mont, the valley was packed, with nearly ten thousand martial artists gathered, attentively watching the center of the valley.
In the center of the valley was a hundred-ter-square stone platform, around which stood late-Saint Realm experts ready at any mont to disperse the violent Qi Force emanating from the platform.
On the eastern mountain wall of the valley, Long Dingtian, Long Huang, and other Fla Dragon Group high-level mbers, along with Yan Hu, Ying Zi, and others gathered here.
Today was the world martial arts tournant’s Saint Realm initial stage competition in the Fla Dragon Country Region, narrowing from twenty to ten participants. On the platform, two cultivators were currently battling.
"Brother Yan Hu, hasn’t Madam Ye and her two companions defeated two already?"
Long Dingtian spoke in a low voice.
"Yes, next it’s only the Young Madam left!"
Yan Hu nodded gently.
Long Dingtian smiled wryly: "I truly wish Madam Ye would lose quickly, so I wouldn’t have to be on edge like this!"
"Hehe! Elder Long, if Sister Jing Yi heard that, she wouldn’t be happy!"
Ying Zi giggled as she spoke.
"No, Miss Ying Zi, please don’t tell Madam Ye, just pretend I didn’t say anything!"
Long Dingtian quickly waved his hands.
Ye Jingyi and her two companions also participated in the tournant, making it difficult for Long Dingtian. He personally attended each of their matches, fearing an opponent might accidentally injure the three ladies.
In order to truly accumulate battle experience, the three ladies wore masks during battles, and because Jiang Chen helped them improve their cultivation techniques, they could successfully conceal their aura.
As a result, even up to now, none of their opponents realized they were actually battling the three ’Iron Ladies’ of the World Martial Alliance!
