Li Qingzhu did not notice the oddity of the woman beside him. Looking at Southern Maniac Mountain, the corner of his mouth curved slightly.
This ti, in the main court’s academy tournant, our Changlin Academy should have it in the bag, right?
At the Divine Infant Realm Peak, we have Lei Kai. In the Late Divine Infant Realm... I wonder how that kid Yun Tao is doing. In the Mid Divine Infant Realm, we have Wu Hen, and at the Early Stage, there’s that freak Jiang Chen.
At least, among the four great realms, our Changlin Academy could definitely lead in two, right?
Although the points for the Early Divine Infant Realm are a bit less, it doesn’t matter. Leading in two realms, that’s a glory that the four branches have never achieved before!
Thinking about the looks on the faces of people from the other three branches after the Changling Main Court’s tournant, a satisfied look appeared in Li Qingzhu’s eyes.
It’s been several cycles since our Changlin Academy last took the lead. In the final academy tournant of each cycle, we’ve always received so mocking remarks from the other three branches.
This year, we must regain our honor!
...
In the azure world.
Jiang Chen’s Divine Infant was radiating bright azure light, with the Power of the Great Dao of The Way of Water in the air madly converging into it.
Buzz!
The Divine Infant trembled slightly, and a faint blue halo erged from its brow.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!
The surrounding Power of the Great Dao surged towards the halo like young children finding their mother.
In the blink of an eye, the halo turned deep blue, then gradually expanded into a mysterious ring of light surrounding the Divine Infant.
As the ring of light appeared, the Power of the Great Dao of The Way of Water stopped converging towards the Divine Infant and returned to normal.
However, the color of those droplets beca much more transparent!
Sigh...
The small Divine Infant let out a soft azure breath and slowly opened its eyes.
"Finally succeeded. Luckily, it happened at this Azure Water Pool; outside, it would’ve taken at least two to three years of accumulation!"
The Divine Infant murmured softly, its figure flickering and disappearing into the azure world.
South Maniac Mountain Peak.
Crack!
A crisp sound echoed in Jiang Chen’s wooden cabin. When Jiang Chen’s Divine Infant returned to the physical body, the blue crystal shattered instantly, turning into a pile of white powder.
Jiang Chen opened his eyes, glanced at the white powder in his hand, and laughed softly, "So it was a one-ti use?"
He discarded the white powder in his hand, looked up at the Spiritual Energy Vortex above the cabin, and shook his head gently, "Not enough, still can’t break through!"
As he finished speaking, the Spiritual Energy Vortex above the cabin poured into the wooden cabin, instantly enveloping Jiang Chen.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
A powerful gust emanated from Jiang Chen’s body, opening all his pores, with the Spiritual Energy transforming into a liquid form pouring into his limbs and hundred extremities.
This was a power left from when the Dragon Qi of the Ancestral Dragon rged into Jiang Chen’s limbs and extremities, which he had never used before.
Jiang Chen had many small spaces composed of the Spatial Path within his limbs and extremities, located within his body’s acupoints. Previously, he hid the Dragon Qi within them. Now that the Spiritual Energy had converged, it couldn’t go to waste. Jiang Chen stored all the gathered Spiritual Energy within those acupoint spaces.
In this way, whenever Jiang Chen’s own Spiritual Power is excessively depleted, he can draw from the Spiritual Energy in the acupoint spaces, instantly converting it into his own Spiritual Power. This idea arose after he nearly exhausted himself after performing Cunshang Yidao at Changyun Prefecture.
"This kid... didn’t break through? Even with such a massive amount of Spiritual Energy, he didn’t break through. This... This kid is getting stranger and stranger!"
Above the wooden cabin, Hu Yiqiu looked at Jiang Chen’s cabin in surprise, then smiled slightly, "Strange is good! Heh heh, the stranger, the stronger, good! Heh heh!"
Inside the wooden cabin.
After absorbing all the Spiritual Energy into the acupoints, Jiang Chen glanced at the jade box beside him, took out a fiery red crystal, and closed his eyes again.
"Hey, have you heard? There’s been chaos with the Great Dao Aura at the Azure Water Pool and Fire Path Mountain lately!"
"I’ve heard. The academy’s explanation is that the Dao Treasure underwent a mutation; they say it’s a normal occurrence."
"Perhaps it is. The chaos at the Azure Water Pool stopped after a while, but the Great Dao Aura has been noticeably weaker since!"
"Could it be that the energy of the Dao Treasure has depleted over ti?!"
Soon after, discussions started echoing throughout Changlin Academy.
Jian Cangqiong, Li Qingzhu, Li Yukun, and the other seven great powers couldn’t sit still after hearing about the disorder with the Great Dao Aura at Fire Path Mountain, and they all ca to Southern Maniac Mountain.
"This kid, could he be planning to absorb all the Power of the Great Dao stored in the Five Elents Dao Fruit?"
Jian Cangqiong glanced at Jiang Chen’s wooden cabin with a bitter smile.
"Not all of it; so energy is still dispersing from the Azure Water Pool!"
Hu Yiqiu chuckled softly.
"Elder Wine, don’t tell you can’t feel it. The Great Dao Aura at the Azure Water Pool has weakened several tis over!"
Jian Cangqiong helplessly cast a glance at Hu Yiqiu.
"Don’t worry, that won’t happen at Fire Path Mountain. If that kid’s gathering the Great Dao Wheel of Light of the Fire Path, Fire Path Mountain’s upheaval would be just like that at the Azure Water Pool."
Hu Yiqiu waved his hand, reassuring Jian Cangqiong.
Jian Cangqiong responded with bitterness once again, "The fear is that after he’s comprehended and absorbed from it, he’ll consolidate the Great Dao Wheel of Light, making the Great Dao Aura at Fire Path Mountain even thinner!"
"If that’s the case, all the better!"
Hu Yiqiu laughed slyly.
However, upon seeing Jian Cangqiong’s increasingly bitter expression, he reluctantly explained softly, "Though I wish that kid would absorb all the Dao Treasures until they disappear, that’s impossible."
"He was able to consolidate the Great Dao Wheel of Light of the Wood Path because of the influence of the old immortal’s wood carving, and the Great Dao Wheel of Light of The Way of Water because of once experiencing my Dao Rhythm."
"For other Great Daos, he hasn’t had the opportunity, so he won’t be able to consolidate them."
These words imdiately turned Jian Cangqiong’s face pale.
"He-he also consolidated the Great Dao Wheel of Light of the Wood Path?!" Jian Cangqiong exclaid in astonishnt.
Li Yukun and the others trembled all over, looking incredulously at Hu Yiqiu.
Hu Yiqiu paused for a mont, swept a glance at everyone, and looked at Jian Cangqiong with confusion, "Didn’t you already know he’d consolidated the Great Dao Wheel of Light?"
"I..."
Jian Cangqiong’s mouth curled into a bizarre smile, eyes filled with undisguised envy and jealousy, "Elder Wine, let have this disciple, alright? I’ll make you the dean! Or whatever you want, apart from my wife and kids, I’ll agree to exchange for anything you want!"
Li Qingzhu rolled his eyes at Jian Cangqiong, then also turned to Hu Yiqiu with blazing eyes. If Jiang Chen beca Jian Cangqiong’s disciple, it would an he was half her disciple too!
