Capítulo 1896: Chapter 1865: I’ll Beat the Undying Out of You
Some things might not be apparent to others, but with the sharp eyes of a Daoist Lord, they can naturally be analyzed clearly.
Li Chen’s performance in the Battle Palace was observed by several Daoist Lords who happened to be present.
And Li Chen’s responses to two questions left the Daoist Lords quite satisfied.
More importantly, even through the Teleportation Array, they could see that Li Chen’s bone age was very young. The whole person exuded a vibrant vitality.
This exuberant vitality cannot be imitated. Older Immortals cannot pretend to have it.
Even Lan Liuyue, the Formation Spirit who faced Li Chen directly, couldn’t judge as accurately as a Daoist Lord.
Lan Liuyue estimated that Li Chen was under two hundred years old, but in the eyes of the Daoist Lords, Li Chen was definitely under a hundred!
Not even a hundred years old, and already at Immortal King cultivation level? What kind of cultivation speed is this?
More crucially, it wasn’t just Li Chen; the two women beside him were at the same age and realm!
Are top-level geniuses now so insignificant?
Otherwise, how could three appear at once?
However, despite the worth of top-level geniuses, these three geniuses were certainly valuable in their eyes.
Who wouldn’t want to recruit such geniuses?
To put it bluntly, a few Daoist Lords also began considering taking apprentices.
Everyone says that even a good horse needs a discerning eye, but at their level, finding a talented disciple with whom they have a connection is not easy.
After all, even for a Daoist Lord, taking an apprentice must be mutually agreeable, right?
Even if they don’t recruit apprentices, they could at least cultivate some rapport.
Thus, several Daoist Lords rushed over to the Geng Jin Five Battalion of the Roaring Void Legion, belonging to Giant Soul Dao Venerate.
Of course, there was one exception; they weren’t there to recruit apprentices nor to build rapport.
The Tea Dao Venerable, whose formation rankings among the top three in the entire Starry Sky Immortal City, and who participated in setting up various formations large and small within the Immortal City.
“Who the hell can tell me where my Formation Spirit went?!!”
The Tea Dao Venerable roared at the other three Daoist Lords.
“Well… Old Tea, calm down first, why such a big temper? Let’s calm down and discuss this,” the Giant Soul Dao Venerate was the first to say.
“Right, right, Old Tea, calm down first, we’re all here, we’re not going anywhere,” added the San Tong Dao Venerate hurriedly.
Within the entire Immortal City, the Tea Dao Venerable was one of the most difficult people not to offend.
Who makes this old guy not hold power, and doesn’t need help from others?
The most crucial thing is that this old guy holds various formation gate keys to the Immortal City’s secret realms, and without good relations with him, these Daoist Lords, who have to support a large group under them, would find it hard to speak up.
Thus, all four Daoist Lords gathered together, whispering among themselves.
But from time to time, the faint rants of the Tea Dao Venerable could still be heard, obviously, losing a Formation Spirit of Ninth-Level Grand Formation made him extremely displeased.
A Ninth-Level Grand Formation with a spirit and one without are two completely different levels of existence in terms of strength.
Of course, while the Daoist Lords might suspect Li Chen, they didn’t believe he could actually walk away with the Formation Spirit of a Ninth-Level Grand Formation.
After all, it’s a Ninth-Level Grand Formation!
To steal a Formation Spirit from a Ninth-Level Grand Formation, firstly, one could only forcefully break the formation and then capture the Formation Spirit. Cultivation at or around the level of a Daoist Lord could almost forcibly take the Formation Spirit away. With Li Chen’s cultivation, it’s clearly impossible.
No matter what, a Ninth-Level Grand Formation is still Ninth-Level, even if it’s just an Illusion Array; given Li Chen’s cultivation, it’s best not to think about it.
Another method would require having powerful Formation Path cultivation, at least enough to see the Array Foundation of a Ninth-Level Grand Formation, then to dissect the formation step by step, finally locating the formation core and taking the Formation Spirit.
Of course, taking a Formation Spirit away would require a vessel capable of containing it. Otherwise, the Formation Spirit would quickly dissipate and reappear in the Array Foundation.
This method is even more troublesome and difficult than the first.
In the eyes of the Daoist Lords, this possibility seemed even smaller.
So, even though the Tea Dao Venerable suspected that Li Chen might be problematic, they didn’t believe Li Chen took the Formation Spirit.
After a discussion among the Daoist Lords, Jin Luo Immortal Venerate cautiously approached Li Chen, unable to resist the curiosity to ask, “Brother, which Immortal Sect are you from?”
Brother?
Li Chen’s expression turned peculiar. Wasn’t this guy at least an Immortal Venerable, with a higher cultivation than himself, and a Soul Realm expert? This was the first time he had seen a Soul Realm expert with such… unique demeanor.
“I’m just a Loose Cultivator with no affiliation. If anything, I did once join an Immortal Sect called the Four Realms Academy.” Li Chen replied.
“Four Realms Academy? What grade Immortal Sect?” Jin Luo tried to think, realizing he had never heard of such a place.
“Immortal King Sect.” Li Chen answered.
Jin Luo Immortal Venerate: “…”
He suddenly felt his question was foolish.
“And these two fairies…” Jin Luo looked behind Li Chen again.
“Are my closest friends!” Li Chen emphasized.
“Oh…” Jin Luo glanced meaningfully at Yang Xin and Bai Tianyi, then smacked his lips at Li Chen and said, “Such good fortune.”
Li Chen chuckled, “It’s alright.”
Strangely, the two seemed to have reached some odd understanding.
At this moment, the four Daoist Lords in the sky seemed to have come to a conclusion.
San Tong Dao Venerate and Heaven Abandoned Dao Venerate both wore displeased expressions, while the Tea Dao Venerable seemed to have received some decent compensation, calming down.
Only Giant Soul Dao Venerate had the most complex expression.
He looked at Li Chen with joy in his eyes, but his face was full of distress, yet he had to force a nonchalant attitude in front of the other Daoist Lords.
Even Li Chen was curious about how the Daoist Lord used facial expressions to convey such a richness of emotion.
Soon, before the group of Immortals at the Geng Jin Five Battalion, the other Daoist Lords departed, leaving only Giant Soul Dao Venerate who descended slowly.
Giant Soul Dao Venerate walked amiably towards Li Chen and the others: “Young friends, may I know your names?”
“Lin Chuan.”
“Xinyu.”
“Tian Yi.”
“Good! Good! Good!” the Giant Soul Dao Venerate exclaimed the word ‘good’ three times, then turned to Jin Luo Immortal Venerate with a smile: “Our Roaring Void Legion has three more promising juniors. Jin Luo, take good care of them, don’t let others laugh at us!”
“Yes!” Jin Luo responded with a face full of cold sweat and cupped fists, he heard the threat in Boss Giant Soul’s words, which clearly meant: If anyone from other legions bullies these three newcomers, I won’t spare you!
Li Chen was full of questions because the atmosphere here seemed completely out of step with the seriousness he imagined.
It all seemed like Starry Sky Immortal City was somewhat… joyous?
