Unable to condense living souls, naturally, there would be no army of living souls.
As for the Gathering Yin technique, its effect was indeed too poor. Even after absorbing all the Yin Qi around him, it didn’t increase his vitality. It was evident that this technique had no effect on him at all.
If both Gathering Yin and Soul Condensation were ineffective, then the final Armor Overlay would be nothing but a castle in the air, as it was ant to cover the leaves with living souls.
Noah Ji sighed inwardly. He thought he had struck it rich, but it turned out to be a huge loss. The most useful thing was actually the Normal-Grade combat skill, Grand Ancestor Long Fist.
The night grew darker, and the autumn moon hung like a hook.
A faint glow flickered once again on Noah Ji’s branches and leaves.
But just as he was about to absorb the moonlight, he suddenly noticed sothing different on his branches and leaves.
Wait, where did these twenty or so green fruits co from?
Seeing the additional fruits on his branches, Noah Ji thought he was seeing things.
After counting the fruits on his branches, Noah Ji was suddenly taken aback. Weren’t these the exact number of living souls he had just absorbed?
So, the Supernatural Power of Soul Gathering didn’t fail; it actually succeeded.
And these living souls didn’t disappear but transford into green fruits on his branches.
At this mont, these green fruits were only the size of a grain of blood rice, but Noah Ji could clearly feel that they were growing rapidly.
Thinking about the introduction of the Supernatural Power, Noah Ji’s heart tightened:
“Damn, my vitality!”
When Noah Ji opened the panel again, his vitality, which was originally 30.4, had decreased by 0.2, leaving only 30.2.
This vitality was his foundation, so Noah Ji would never forget it, not even a decimal point!
And that wasn’t all. The most important thing was that while Noah Ji was observing, his vitality decreased by another 0.1. It was clear that these growing green fruits were constantly consuming his vitality.
At this rate, how much vitality would these green fruits consu?
Noah Ji was uncertain, but he didn’t act rashly for the mont.
He could pluck these green fruits one by one, which would likely stop the consumption of his vitality. But this represented the success of the Soul Gathering Supernatural Power, and with the scarcity of living souls around, if he removed the green fruits, the Supernatural Power would surely fail.
Moreover, although his vitality was decreasing, the growth rate of these green fruits was quite fast.
After pondering for a mont, Noah Ji stopped worrying.
He currently had thirty points of vitality, and after fivefold deduction, he still had fifty-four points of Qi and Blood, which could be converted into more than twenty points of vitality.
Plus, he could absorb moonlight every night. How much vitality could these green fruits really consu?
In this case, it was better to see what these green fruits would eventually grow into.
The appearance of the green fruits also made Noah Ji hesitant to cancel the Gathering Yin technique. He was worried that changing his life form might cause the Supernatural Power to fail.
Of course, the more important reason was that he discovered he could operate both Gathering Yin and Lunar Eclipse simultaneously without any conflict.
As the night deepened, the Yin Qi grew denser, and Noah Ji absorbed more and more Yin Qi.
Although his vitality didn’t increase with the Yin Qi, Noah Ji could feel that the green fruits on his branches were growing faster under the gathering Yin Qi.
The night was enchanting, but on a path ten miles away from the Li Clan, there was a murderous atmosphere.
In the middle of the path, dozens of people were surrounded. These were the people of the Li Clan.
But upon closer inspection, one could see that there were no young people among them; most were elderly, won, and children.
Surrounding them were the warriors of the Chen Clan who had been mobilized today.
“Clan Chief, we didn’t find Joshua Li and Jay Li, nor the remaining warriors of the Li Clan.”
Beside him, Mason Chen said with a serious expression.
During the Sacred Tree Grand Ceremony, most of the clan mbers had already been sent out to search for the remaining mbers of the Li Clan.
A few days after the Sacred Tree Grand Ceremony, the clan quickly discovered the hiding place of the Li Clan.
However, Ethan Chen didn’t act imdiately. Although the Li Clan was in decline, their remaining mbers’ counterattack still needed to be handled carefully.
After the Sacred Tree Grand Ceremony, the clan mbers, blessed by the Sacred Tree, not only recovered from their injuries but also gained confidence, making it the perfect ti to completely eliminate the Li Clan.
So he personally led the team to pursue them.
But unexpectedly, the group they found this ti was just ordinary people of the Li Clan.
“As expected of the current Clan Chief of the Li Clan, he directly abandoned most of his clan mbers. Truly decisive.”
Ethan Chen said, with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
But the more formidable the enemy, the less he wanted to let them go. If the Li Clan wasn’t completely eradicated, the Chen Clan might face future crises.
“Send people to continue the search, expand the range!”
Ethan Chen issued another order.
“Clan Chief, what should we do with these people?”
Mason Chen pointed to the other mbers of the Li Clan, who were showing fear and trepidation, and asked.
“Kill them all.”
Hearing the murderous tone from Ethan Chen, Mason Chen’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly said:
“Clan Chief, most of these people are old, weak, sick, and disabled. They don’t pose much threat to the clan. I think it’s better to drive them out of the Disordered Burial Mountain.”
“Mason, you must not be soft-hearted. These people may seem harmless, but their relatives are all mbers of the Li Clan. If given the chance, they will never let go of their hatred because of your kindness today.”
“A clan war is no child’s play. If the Li Clan had won this ti, how many of our Chen Clan’s remaining mbers do you think would have survived?”
Hearing the heavy words in his ears, Mason Chen murmured:
“But…”
But he never finished his sentence. He understood that a clan war was not a matter of one or two people but involved the entire clan.
But he really couldn’t bear it.
“You go back first. Let Elijah handle things here.”
“Alright.”
Watching Mason Chen’s departing figure, Ethan Chen sighed.
Mason had a steady character, remained calm in major events, and could co up with strategies. But in this aspect, he was too kind-hearted.
He was getting old. Although he was in the late-stage Blood Condensation Realm, the decline in his Qi and Blood and energy made him sowhat powerless, especially during this clan crisis, which had drained him a lot.
Even with the Sacred Tree’s treatnt, it couldn’t fully restore him.
Unless he broke through to the Innate Realm, where his Qi and Blood and bones would be in perfect harmony, he could gain a few more decades of life. But the Innate Realm was extrely difficult to achieve, and he had no chance.
After completely resolving the Li Clan, he should consider who would succeed as the next Clan Chief.
But now was not the ti to think about this. It wouldn’t be too late to discuss it after dealing with the Li Clan.
The last treatnt from the Sacred Tree gave him ten more years to live.
Ten years should be enough.
Ethan Chen turned and left, ignoring the sounds coming from behind him.
