Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 2157: Chapter 2161: A Mind Immersed in the Great Dao

”Elder Lu has always been under Elder Xi Nu’s surveillance. What happened today could never have been arranged by Elder Lu. Given that, even if Sun Zheqi’s voice isn’t as influential as Elder Lu’s, he must have the right to act independently!”

Jiang Chen looked at Dao Yeming and softly explained.

Hu Yiqiu and Sang Zhenye glanced at Dao Yeming, and all three nodded.

”The most frightening thing is!”

A serious expression appeared on Jiang Chen’s face, and a hint of worry flashed in his eyes. ”He Tianwei’s challenge today!”

”He Tianwei’s challenge today? Wasn’t that mentioned earlier? Maybe it’s because he has a powerful backer.”

Hu Yiqiu showed a hint of confusion. ”Even if he indeed has a backer at the Integration Realm Peak, there’s no reason for us to fear him, right?”

”It’s unnecessary to fear him, but, Master.”

Jiang Chen stared directly at Hu Yiqiu. ”We aren’t afraid of a single Integration Realm Peak expert, but can you guarantee that the opponent only has one pinnacle expert?”

”This...”

The faces of Hu Yiqiu and the others changed completely.

”Also, even a pawn like He Tianwei knows that the other side has such an expert. Does it suggest that the opponent is about to act, and releasing the information was to reassure their pawns?”

Jiang Chen raised another explosive point.

”What?!”

”It’s possible!”

Hu Yiqiu and the others broke into a cold sweat.

If Jiang Chen’s speculation is true and the academy is unprepared, more than one Integration Realm Peak expert could severely damage the academy!

”Whether these guesses can be confirmed depends on Elder Xi Nu.”

Jiang Chen smiled slightly. ”Isn’t He Tianwei on West Fury Mountain?”

”You mean...”

Dao Yeming and the others immediately understood why Jiang Chen pleaded for He Tianwei to have his punishment changed to confinement, to better interrogate and investigate!

”I’ll go at once!”

Dao Yeming left a sentence behind, leapt, and flew towards West Fury Mountain.

”If it’s really as you kid guessed, then it’s troublesome!”

Hu Yiqiu frowned, his eyes showing a trace of worry.

Sang Zhenye also furrowed his brows tightly, his breathing somewhat heavy.

”When soldiers come, use generals to hold them off; when water arrives, use earth to cover it! Confirming the information in advance is for making better preparations, not to cause our side to panic and worry. Master, your state of mind needs improvement!”

Jiang Chen chuckled lightly, said a word, and turned to enter his cabin.

Hu Yiqiu was stunned for a moment, turned his head, and foolishly looked at Sang Zhenye. ”Old Sang, was this kid just educating me, the old man?”

”Seems like it.”

Sang Zhenye held back a laugh and nodded gently.

”Stinky brat!”

Hu Yiqiu’s face grew angry, and he shouted at Jiang Chen’s cabin. ”You little rascal, you’ve become lawless, daring to lecture me, the old man, you...”

Buzz!

An enigmatic ripple emanated from within Jiang Chen’s cabin.

Hu Yiqiu immediately closed his mouth, curiously glanced at Jiang Chen’s cabin, and then turned to Yun Tao. ”Have you all received the key to the Secret Realm of Dao Treasure?”

”Yes!”

Yun Tao’s face twitched as he nodded and quickly lowered his head, not letting Hu Yiqiu see the smile on his face.

The ripple from Jiang Chen’s cabin was Divine Sense fluctuation. After the ripple passed, everyone could sense that inside Jiang Chen’s cabin, only an empty body remained.

Only Jiang Chen could think of such a way to interrupt Hu Yiqiu’s scolding!

My Divine Infant has detached, scold away, no matter how you scold, I can’t hear you!

”What are you laughing at? Go and cultivate quickly, don’t expect the old man to be your protector one by one!”

Hu Yiqiu was embarrassed, glared at Yun Tao and the others irritably.

Yun Tao and the others hurried back to their rooms.

”Elder Jiu, just now... the heart state was unstable, right?”

After Yun Tao and the others left, Sang Zhenye spoke in a low voice.

Sigh!

Hu Yiqiu’s expression slightly changed, and he sighed lightly. ”The battle of those years was too tragic, Old Sang, when you heard Young Jiang’s speculation, wasn’t your heart unsettled?”

”It was!”

Sang Zhenye nodded heavily, glanced at Jiang Chen’s cabin with a complicated expression, and said, ”I didn’t expect that one day, we two old fellows would need a kid in the Divine Infant Realm to remind us to mind our heart state.”

”This kid definitely noticed.”

Hu Yiqiu’s eyes showed a trace of comfort and pride. ”As expected of my disciple, sharp in insight, and even knows to humor us two old guys to save face, not bad! Not bad! The master taught well!”

”Elder Jiu, in Changlin Academy, no one has a thicker skin than you!”

Sang Zhenye rolled his eyes at Hu Yiqiu, then quit Southern Maniac Mountain, no longer bothering with Hu Yiqiu’s smug face.

”Kid, you should have prepared by now, right? Hopefully, this battle won’t require you to act!”

After Sang Zhenye left, the smug expression on Hu Yiqiu’s face instantly vanished. He gazed worriedly at Jiang Chen’s cabin, muttering to himself.

...

Inside the cabin.

As soon as Jiang Chen entered the cabin, he immediately opened the jade box received from the Task Hall.

Inside lay five crystals in five different colors, sparkling and translucent, imbued with traces of the aura of the Five Elements Great Path.

”Looks like the Dean truly changed the reward for my sake!”

Jiang Chen sighed lightly, a warm current flowing through his heart.

He reached out to take the blue crystal inside, slightly extended a wisp of Divine Sense into it.

Buzz!

A profound fluctuation came from the crystal. Jiang Chen’s body shuddered violently, a shocked expression appeared on his face, and the Divine Infant uncontrollably flew out from between his eyebrows, diving directly into the crystal.

This was a vast blue world, filled entirely with fine droplets of water, and the rich aura of The Way of Water emanated from those droplets, giving a fresh and pleasing sensation.

The small Divine Infant glanced around, revealing a faint smile.

”No wonder the Town Soul Stele didn’t automatically protect the master, turns out it’s the entry method to the Dao Treasure Secret Realm.”

Jiang Chen smiled slightly, feeling the concentrated aura of The Way of Water around him. The small Divine Infant sat cross-legged, beginning to meditate and cultivate.

The reason for first choosing The Way of Fire was that Jiang Chen’s order of insight into various Great Daos was Sword Dao, Wood Path, Spatial Path, The Way of Water—these four he comprehended the most.

Among them, both Sword Dao and Wood Path have already condensed the Great Dao Wheel of Light, while the Spatial Path hasn’t found a suitable place for cultivation. Therefore, Jiang Chen wanted to see if he could seize this opportunity to condense the Great Dao Wheel of Light for The Way of Water.

As for other Great Daos like The Way of Fire, Earth Path, Dao of Wind, they haven’t reached the extent of condensing a Great Dao Wheel of Light yet, hence being placed after.

Rustle!

As Jiang Chen cultivated, the surrounding droplets began to emit a bright blue light, gathering towards Jiang Chen’s Divine Infant, slowly forming a blue water curtain, enveloping Jiang Chen within.

Waves of Great Dao Aura emerged from the water curtain, pouring into Jiang Chen’s Divine Infant.
