Chapter 708: Chapter 429: The System of Worlds Below Mount Ling – Part 2

“`

“That sounds rather easy for you to say, how do you plan to achieve it?” Someone snorted coldly. Was what Logan proposed too much to be taken for granted? Didn’t it occur to the many people present before? If they had such methods, why not just repair it directly? Why go through all these complications?”

“I am an Array Master, and unlike you group of Cultivators, I have my own insights. The choice is in your hands, what does it matter to me whether you believe or not?”

Logan sneered dismissively, “Even if the Immortal Realm collapses, I would still be carefree, but it’s different for you people of the Immortal Realm, isn’t it!”

“Logan, do not be reckless!” Seeing Logan so brazen, about to offend everyone present, the Blackwood City Master quickly interjected.

Logan spread out his hands; he didn’t owe anyone an apology. Even though two of the Sect Leaders present were powerful, more than Logan could handle alone, he would not bow to anyone.

Oliver Bennett took a deep breath and asked, “If we let you do it, how confident are you in resolving the crack? Of course, I will provide all necessary resources!”

Logan stretched out one finger, prompting a burst of laughter from everyone. After seeing Logan so full of confidence, they had thought he was highly assured, but it turned out he had only a ten percent chance!

Watching them misunderstand, Logan coughed and explained, “What I mean is, a certain success, not just a ten percent chance!”

“What do you need?” Oliver Bennett didn’t press further but asked bluntly. Seeing him so straightforward, Logan was somewhat taken aback.

“A hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones should suffice.” At this, everyone exchanged bewildered looks. Could Top-Grade Spirit Stones really resolve the crack in Cloud Valley?

And only a hundred? In the minds of the people present, resolving the crack this time, even if it cost one-tenth of the Immortal Realm’s resources, would be worth it.

“Agreed, I’ll give you two hundred, but you only have one day because if you don’t succeed, I will need time to discuss other strategies with others.”

Oliver Bennett nodded, then added, “Moreover, if you resolve the crack, what remuneration do you want? You can make your demands now!”

“One Immortal Fruit, including the rewards proposed by your two Great Sects before— I am not a greedy man; it’s all for good karma with the Immortal Realm!”

Although Immortal Fruits are precious in the Immortal Realm, they are not considered top-tier. For the two Great Sects, having a few Immortal Fruits is almost commonplace. Logan’s demand was not high; in fact, it was in no way exorbitant. Compared to saving the Immortal Realm, one Immortal Fruit was not worth mentioning.

“Tomorrow morning, you go!” Oliver Bennett said, his words tantamount to agreement. Logan let out a sigh of relief; it had taken quite some effort to achieve this.

Initially, he thought acquiring an Immortal Fruit would be difficult. Now, as long as he resolved the crisis of Ancient Cloud, he could obtain an Immortal Fruit for nothing. It turned out this trip was worthwhile after all.

Blackwood City Master looked at Logan and spoke word by word, “Think it over. Once you’ve taken on the task, if you fail, no one can bear Oliver Bennett’s wrath!”

Even if he wanted to protect Logan, he would likely be powerless, as in terms of cultivation level and realm, he was far weaker than Oliver Bennett.

“If this young man is confident, why does Blackwood City Master seem so apprehensive?” Earth Profound Sect Master remarked with a faint smile, prompting the Blackwood City Master to step back several paces.

“Now that we’ve come to an agreement, I’ll take my leave!” Logan stretched and walked out of the tent to discuss the incident with Holy Daoist.

Meanwhile, inside the tent, everyone’s gaze turned to Oliver Bennett: “Sect Leader Oliver, are we really relying on a youngster? He doesn’t seem like a Grandmaster Array Master to me—there’s probably a lot of bluster in his claims. If it’s all talk and no action, won’t we just be wasting our time?”

“Even if he really succeeds, it might not be a good thing. After all, if this gets out, how will outsiders view our Immortal Realm? They will certainly say that we are inferior to an outsider cultivator, and then the shame would be huge. You must come up with a solution,” they said. freёnovelkiss.com

“With a crisis at hand, are you really considering these things?” The Blackwood City Master was very frustrated. The people from these two Great Sects had such bizarre ways of thinking; did they really need the Immortal Realm to cease existing before they would regret their inaction?

Di Muhai scoffed disdainfully, and a pressuring force struck towards the Blackwood City Master, “What’s there to be arrogant about, just a nine-layer Holy See? You think you can pose in front of our two Great Sects?”

“I do not wish to be an enemy of anyone, yet I am not one to be bullied!” The Blackwood City Master put up a defense. He admitted he couldn’t beat Oliver Bennett from the Immortal Celestial Gate, but the gap with Di Muhai from the Earth Profound Sect wasn’t big. If it came to a life-and-death battle, the worst outcome would be both of them perishing together.

At that moment, an aura emanated from Oliver Bennett, “Stop fighting, both of you, give me some face. I agreed to let Logan give it a try because I have my own considerations.”

“For one, I can feel that Logan is full of confidence, different from those who boast emptily. Since so many of us are at a loss, why not let someone else have a try? Even if he fails, besides delaying us by a day, there is really no significant loss.”

“Suppose Logan succeeds, it’s just an Immortal Fruit we’re talking about. As for the loss of face you mention, that is even more preposterous. If Logan really has such strong capabilities, I’m afraid we will need to rely on him more in the future. Who can guarantee that the Immortal Realm won’t face a crisis?”

“In the face of a Grandmaster Array Master, one is respected wherever they go. No one will laugh at us; on the contrary, they will feel that the people of the Immortal Realm respect an Array Master. This would also help attract talented individuals. The cultivators of the Immortal Realm should not remain complacent, but instead gather all capable and extraordinary people.”

After Oliver Bennett spoke, everyone expressed their understanding. Indeed, they had been petty just now; Logan being a Grandmaster Array Master was an excellent thing.

The next morning, over a thousand people were fully prepared. Under the leadership of Oliver Bennett, they approached the crack.

The distance was not far; it took just a minute to reach it. Logan took a deep breath, in his hand were a hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones given by Oliver Bennett.

Logan had many Spirit Stones, but it was the first time he had seen Top-Grade Spirit Stones. He couldn’t help but marvel at the dense Law’s Force contained within them. Not to mention that a Top-Grade Spirit Stone was worth ten million regular Spirit Stones, even if the price was doubled, it would still be reasonable.

Everyone’s gaze turned towards Logan, and Oliver Bennett spoke, “Don’t feel too much pressure, just give it your best shot. Even if you fail, no one will blame you.”

This half-true, half-false statement was naturally not fully trusted by the protagonist. If he couldn’t prove his strength, it was inevitable that the other party might turn on him in a moment.

Logan stepped forward and immediately began inspecting the fissure, the same as he had seen in the Eastern Sea before. In fact, it was just a rift opened in the Immortal Realm, causing Law’s Force to leak out. It wasn’t a problem in the short term, but if left too long, it would certainly lead to the collapse of the Immortal Realm.

The reason he dared to agree yesterday was that he had a certain confidence. In fact, to stop the fissure, it only required setting up an array to absorb the leaking Law’s Force, then using the Law’s Force to weave a large net, thereby restoring the fissure to its original state.

If it was just ordinary Spirit Stones, even with Logan’s power alone, it would take at least a year and a half, because he needed to set up an astonishing array to absorb the Law’s Force, then use it to construct a grand array of Law’s Force. Now, with the Top-Grade Spirit Stones, the work was halved.

Taking out a large amount of ordinary Spirit Stones, Logan distributed them around within a kilometer radius. Then, various Techniques were cast out, instantly forming an Array Barrier. Next, he began continuously adding Spirit Stones. Layers of Golden Light kept emerging, with Runes gathering around them.

This scene made Di Muhai scoff coldly, objecting, “We gave you a hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones, and you didn’t use a single one. Instead, you turn to ordinary Spirit Stones? Can ordinary Spirit Stones get the job done?”

“Stop nagging, just watch quietly!” Oliver Bennett gave him a glance, indicating for him to stop causing a stir. After all, he was a Sect Leader; shouldn’t he show a bit of magnanimity?

The Array Barrier was established, and Logan immediately added ten Top-Grade Spirit Stones. A majestic Law’s Force surged forth, strengthening the entire Law’s accumulation. In the next moment, the fissure acted like a vortex, with innumerable Laws emanating from it, bringing back even what was lost over several days.

As ten minutes passed, Logan added another fifty Top-Grade Spirit Stones. He did not dare rest, continuously casting various Runes to perfect the strength of his absorbing array. As more Laws were gathered, the array’s capacity to withstand reached new limits.
