Chapter 719: No Proud Child in the Eastern Domain
Nether City.
South of the city in a mansion.
"People from the Western Domain and Southern Domain should be arriving tomorrow."
Qin Wufa said with a smile.
The Central Domain, Western Domain, and Southern Domain have close connections and means of communication.
As the number one prodigy of the Central Domain, it's natural for him to take the lead in forming an alliance, as only he possesses such a deterring power.
"Right, just have them come over directly once they arrive."
Ling Chen replied with a smile.
They had been in Nether City for half a month.
This mansion was rented by Ling Chen.
The rental period was three months.
The cost was thirty thousand top-grade Spirit Crystals, which to Ling Chen, was just pocket change.
Afterwards, Ling Chen continued to sit midair, activating his Sunlight Holy Body to absorb the Moonlight Power to refine his Divine Soul.
With top-grade Spirit Crystals in hand, Ling Chen's Spiritual Power Cultivation had indeed advanced a little, reaching the middle phase of the third level of the World Realm.
However, his Divine Soul did not make much progress.
Merely absorbing the Moonlight Power was becoming somewhat ineffective.
But as Ling Chen's increase in Spiritual Power slowed down and there were no Spirit Arts left to learn,
the fifth stance of the Green Lotus Sword Manual still seemed lacking.
Thus, he could only painstakingly strengthen his Divine Soul this way.
It's better than nothing!
All his slain enemies were emperors, and none of the treasures within his inner world had anything to do with the Divine Soul.
He could only rely on the Moonlight Power.
Now, his Divine Soul Cultivation increasingly lagged behind his Spiritual Power Cultivation.
Even fusing Spiritual Power couldn't advance him further.
He was at the middle phase of the third level of the World Realm, and with the amplification of the Perfect World, he was comparable to the middle phase of the sixth level of the World Realm.
However, the fusion of Spiritual Power could only advance to a level comparable to the early phase of the seventh level.
Not even a full level improvement.
However, the potency of the fused Divine Soul Telekinesis had significantly increased.
It could even threaten emperors at the level of the third stage of the World Realm.
Yet, Ling Chen's combat power mainly relied on Spiritual Power.
Even though Ling Chen possessed the Night Moon Saint Body and faced no bottlenecks in cultivation,
it was not realistic to expect a rapid advance in Spiritual Power Cultivation within a short period.
"Understood."
Qin Wufa responded and then withdrew.
Ever since he personally witnessed Ling Chen slaying a Seven Star Emperor, his respect for Ling Chen intensified.
The next day at noon.
"Young Master Ling, the people from the Southern and Western Domains are here."
Qin Wufa said, "Shall we go out to greet them?"
"Good!"
Ling Chen ended his cultivation practice and put away the top-grade Spirit Crystal he was holding.
As Ling Chen's gaze shifted from his hands, a flash of envy appeared in Qin Wufa's eyes.
That was a top-grade Spirit Crystal!
Even he was not privileged enough to use such a Spirit Crystal for cultivation!
It didn't take long before the two of them arrived at the mansion's front gate.
Ten people stood there, divided into two camps.
Four from the Western Domain.
The remaining six were from the Southern Domain.
"Lady Liu, Young Master Ouyang!"
Qin Wufa greeted the two leaders with a bow of his fists.
"Young Master Qin!"
Both of them returned the gesture immediately.
Previously, Qin Wufa had introduced them to Ling Chen.
The number one prodigy from the Southern Domain was called Liu Ruyun, and from the Western Domain, Ouyang Jie.
Ling Chen looked at the two.
Their cultivation levels were quite similar to Qin Wufa's.
However, a charming and cute young woman standing behind Liu Ruyun caught Ling Chen's attention.
This lady's cultivation actually rivals that of Qin Wufa.
Moreover, her attire is also different from others.
She wore a short skirt, revealing two long, snow-white legs, with two small copper bells tied around her ankles, and her feet bare.
Her big eyes, full of spiritual energy, twirled around, frequently glancing around, filled with curiosity.
"Lady Liu, Young Master Ouyang, let me introduce to you, this is Ling Chen, Young Master Ling!"
At this moment, Qin Wufa introduced with a smile.
"Young Master Ling?"
Ouyang Jie looked at Ling Chen, noting that the latter's World Realm sixth intermediate level cultivation was slightly younger than theirs.
Such age and such cultivation were no less inferior to them.
Then he looked at Qin Wufa, couldn't help but bitterly smile and said, "Young Master Qin, it seems that your Central Domain is also filled with talents! With Lady Liu and Miss Jiang from the Southern Domain, and Young Master Qin and Young Master Ling from your Central Domain, it seems we from the Western Domain are the weakest."
"Miss Jiang?"
Only then did Qin Wufa notice the lady in the short skirt.
Her cultivation was not to be underestimated compared to his.
"Xiao Man greets everyone!"
The lady in the short skirt curtsied gently.
Her delicate body moved, causing her ankle bells to jingle melodically.
"Jiang Xiaoman!"
Ling Chen also remembered the lady's name.
After Qin Wufa greeted Jiang Xiaoman with a handclasp, he looked towards Ouyang Jie and bitterly smiled: "If only Young Master Ling were from my Central Domain!"
"Not from the Central Domain?"
Liu Ruyun, Jiang Xiaoman, and Ouyang Jie were all stunned.
"Young Master Ling is from the Eastern Domain!"
Qin Wufa said with a smile.
He hadn't mentioned Ling Chen's situation to Liu Ruyun and Ouyang Jie before.
Some things are hard to believe unless seen with one's own eyes.
Thus, he waited until everyone had seen Ling Chen before fully informing them.
"What, the Eastern Domain?"
Everyone was stunned.
Everyone knew the situation in the Eastern Domain.
They were not even comparable to the other three domains.
This six-star intermediate emperor level cultivator actually came from the Eastern Domain, which was truly astonishing.
"Young Master Ling, truly an eye-opener for us."
After a pause, Ouyang Jie finally spoke.
Their impressions of the Eastern Domain were still from the past.
The Eastern Domain of the past had no qualifications even for an alliance with them.
However, Ling Chen's appearance changed their views.
"Alright, everyone, let's go inside and talk!"
Qin Wufa said with a smile.
Soon, everyone entered the mansion and came to the council hall.
"This time, it will be an alliance formed by our Central, Western, Southern, and Eastern Domains to jointly confront the Northern Domain, everyone agrees, right?"
Qin Wufa said.
"No problem."
Liu Ruyun and Ouyang Jie nodded.
Ling Chen's cultivation level is a World Realm sixth intermediate level.
Not much different from theirs.
Adding him will not hold them back.
"Good, everyone agrees, then our alliance is officially established. Now, let's report the number of proud children and their strength levels?"
Qin Wufa smiled and said: "I'll start. My Central Domain, three proud children, one at six-star late stage, two at six-star early stage!"
Ouyang Jie said: "My Western Domain, four proud children, one at six-star late stage, one at six-star intermediate stage, two at six-star early stage!"
Liu Ruyun said: "My Southern Domain, six proud children, two at six-star late stage, two at six-star intermediate stage, two at six-star early stage. Additionally, there are two six-tier late-stage Emperor Spirit Beasts."
Upon hearing this, both Qin Wufa and Ouyang Jie's expressions slightly changed.
The power of the Southern Domain completely surpassed their Central and Western Domains!
They even had two six-star late-stage Emperor Spirit Beasts, which is equivalent to having two six-star late-stage proud children!
Seeing this, Liu Ruyun smiled and said: "Now, please let Young Master Ling introduce?"
Ling Chen nodded and smiled: "If we say the cultivators holding the proud child tokens are proud children, then our Eastern Domain has not a single proud child."
"Ah?"
Qin Wufa, Ouyang Jie, and Liu Ruyun were completely stunned.
Even Qin Wufa did not know, with Ling Chen's strength, that he actually did not possess a proud child token?
