Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 2993 -2996: Acquiring the Dao Source Site

“We have decided to inform all factions, to conduct a fair selection among forces outside the superpowers of the Five Continents, choosing five cultivators at the Saint Realm and five at the Integration Realm Peak. The Royal Family will preside over this, and will serve alongside the Royal Family as participants in the final round of challenges.”

The Flame Emperor softly announced.

Jiang Chen smiled faintly, without much reaction. The others were somewhat uneasy, but they were merely preparatory students without the privilege of giving directions on such matters.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh!

A sound of breaking through the air arose, making everyone slightly stunned, as they raised their heads to look at the sky ahead.

“Teacher Jian? Elder Jin!”

Jiang Chen’s expression brightened as he softly spoke.

“It seems they want to discuss with you about the merger between academies.”

Zhao Buzu laughed lightly as he spoke.

“Greetings to the Great Venerable and Zhao Venerable!”

Several figures descended, cupping their fists towards the Flame Emperor and Zhao Buzu. They were Tai Yuan, Su Ruoyun, Jian Cangqiong, and Jin Baisheng.

“Friend Jin!”

The Flame Emperor and another nodded in return to Jin Baisheng.

“Teacher Jian, Elder Jin.”

Jiang Chen chuckled as he stepped forward, cupping his fists towards Jian Cangqiong and the others.

“Haha, Mr. Jiang, finally we meet again. You really make me look at you in a new light!”

Jin Baisheng laughed heartily as he spoke. It had been ten years since they last saw each other, and the events over those years truly startled Jin Baisheng, leading him to highly regard Jiang Chen.

“Elder Jin, you flatter me!”

Jiang Chen smiled faintly.

“Jiang Chen, both the Dean Jian and Elder Jin wish for you to participate in the negotiation meeting. What do you think?”

Tai Yuan softly inquired.

Jiang Chen was honorary dean of Changlin Academy within the Battlefield Realm. Due to him, members of Changlin Academy could more easily enter the Battlefield Realm. Without his involvement, certain matters could not be determined.

On the side, others like Ren Cangsheng looked at Jiang Chen with complex eyes. Though they were likewise preparatory students, Jiang Chen had the privilege to partake in the superpower merger meeting, while they… simply couldn’t compare!

At this moment, the admiration for Jiang Chen from people like Ren Cangsheng became even more fervent.

“Alright, I’ll play the villain then.”

Jiang Chen laughed lightly and nodded.

Tai Yuan was slightly stunned, but understood inwardly, sighing quietly. Perhaps the treatment of Changling Academy was not as he had hoped.

Turning his gaze toward the Flame Emperor and Zhao Buzu, Jiang Chen cupped his fists and saluted: “Great Elder, teacher, I have a request, though a bit presumptuous, I still hope the two elders will oblige.”

“Speak.”

Zhao Buzu smiled slightly as he softly responded.

“The Dao Source Ground does not seem very significant to Void Nether Academy, but it is immensely precious to Changlin Academy. I’m willing to exchange it for other things…”

Jiang Chen looked at the Flame Emperor and the other expectantly.

Everyone was shocked, looking at Jiang Chen in disbelief.

Exchange Dao Source Ground? This guy dares to say anything. What does he have that could substitute for such a Cultivation Holy Lands?!

“Exchange for what? It’s your teacher’s property, you are my only student, I’ll gift it to you!”

Zhao Buzu waved his hand casually.

Everyone was stunned once again, their mouths agape, dumbfoundedly staring at Zhao Buzu.

Gifting? Just like that, such a Cultivation Holy Lands was given to Jiang Chen!?

What the…

As their eyes turned to Jiang Chen, a hint of heat entered their gazes, waking them up abruptly.

Zhao Buzu didn’t even care about such a Cultivation Holy Lands; how precious must the Secret Realm within Void Nether Academy’s amenities be?!

At this moment, many among the crowd longed even more to join Void Nether Academy!

Jiang Chen paused for a moment, showing gratitude in his eyes, he cupped his fists towards Zhao Buzu: “Thank you, teacher.”

Tai Yuan’s expression changed, he opened his mouth but said nothing, only sighed quietly to himself.

“No need to thank, just cultivate diligently. Moreover, while this item is good, excessively absorbing is not ideal. After all, it’s the power of someone else, your own cultivated power is more dependable.”

Zhao Buzu waved his hand with a soft reminder, he somewhat understood Jiang Chen’s intent. Since he decided to support him, there wasn’t any need to refuse such a trivial matter.

Jian Cangqiong’s eyes brightened, a hint of smile appeared on his face, secretly feeling relieved. Jiang Chen’s move was a tremendous bargaining chip for Changlin Academy!

Swish!

The Flame Emperor smiled faintly, flew upwards, and hovered above the Dao Formation, holding his palm downward as he shouted, “Rise!”

Buzz!

Rumble!

Space trembled as the mountain where the Dao Formation was located shook violently.

Boom!

With a huge rumble, the whole mountain uprooted, rapidly shrinking. In a moment, it turned into a palm-sized piece, landing in the Flame Emperor’s hand.

The Flame Emperor grasped the small peak, his silhouette flickered as he approached Jiang Chen, reaching out to hand over the mountain: “You simply need to find a suitable place to cast it, the Dao Formation will naturally activate. I have removed the restrictions inside; you can allow others to add restrictions, thus controlling entry and exit.”

“Thank you, Flame Emperor elder!”

Jiang Chen cupped his fists and bowed, respectfully reaching out to receive the small peak.

Holding the mountain peak, Jiang Chen was surprised; the peak had no weight at all. If it wasn’t for personally witnessing the Flame Emperor retracting it, it would be unimaginable that this was a giant peak of ten thousand meters high!

Virtual mustard seed power? Flame Emperor elder has such potent strength!

Sighing inwardly, Jiang Chen turned and handed the mountain peak to Jin Baisheng: “Elder Jin, let you and Teacher Jian manage this Dao Source Ground!”

“You’re not using it?”

Jin Baisheng was slightly surprised.

Jiang Chen smiled faintly: “Teacher was right. The power of others is ultimately others’ power; comprehension is essential, but absorbing too much can alter one’s own strength. I’ve already absorbed quite a lot; I won’t need it for a while. It’s best left with Changlin Academy. If I want to borrow it for cultivation, would you deny me entry?”

“Certainly not.”

Jin Baisheng chuckled softly, reached out to take the small mountain, inwardly sighing—the most correct decision Changlin Academy made was bringing Mr. Jiang into the academy!

“Flame Emperor elder, teacher, I’ll first go to discuss the merger with the elders.”

Jiang Chen turned to the Flame Emperor and the other, speaking softly.

“Go ahead, we’ll wait for your return, then head to the next power!”

Zhao Buzu waved his hand.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh!

Jiang Chen and the others flew up, heading toward the council hall of Changling Academy.

Ren Cangsheng and the others watched Jiang Chen and the others leave, their eyes filled with a longing—such a status that could decide on superpower mergers, they were far from reaching!

“Don’t envy, everyone has their own fate.”

Qiu Wenqing looked at Ren Cangsheng and the others, softly saying, “Digest what you’ve gained this month, when Jiang Chen returns, we’ll continue our journey.”

“Yes!”

The crowd responded and began sitting cross-legged to digest the month’s gains.
