CHAPTER 870: CHAPTER 870: THE GATHERING

Ling Chen immersed himself in his own world.

Having just advanced to the Emperor Realm, he needed some time to get familiar with such powerful strength.

"Is this the power of a tenth of the Heaven and Earth Power?"

Ling Chen’s palm held a Spiritual Power.

It was augmented with a tenth of the Heaven and Earth Power.

Although he hadn’t released it, Ling Chen could already feel the terrifying energy within.

At this moment, he felt more closely connected to this world.

Every move he made contained endless might.

A few hours later.

"Boom!"

Li Qiushui’s body trembled, and the Emperor’s Might swept forth as well.

She too had advanced to a one-star Emperor!

"Congratulations, Miss Li!"

Ling Chen looked towards Li Qiushui.

"Congratulations to us both!"

Li Qiushui smiled.

Evidently, she had also sensed the aura emanating from Ling Chen.

When the final time limit arrived, Li Changtian too awakened.

He hadn’t advanced, still remaining at the quasi-Emperor level.

At this moment, Emperor Haotian entered.

"Congratulations to all of you. Quickly stabilize your cultivation!"

Emperor Haotian smiled.

"Yes."

Ling Chen and the others replied.

Soon after, they returned to their respective courtyards.

After spending three days, Ling Chen completely stabilized his cultivation and familiarized himself well with the Emperor Realm power.

Ling Chen did not hurry to go out.

Instead, he started studying the Heaven and Earth Power on the two paths of cultivation.

In the path of Spiritual Power, he was a one-star Heavenly Passage Realm Emperor.

On the path of Divine Soul, he was barely a quasi-Emperor grade Divine Thought Master.

However, the Heaven and Earth Power on these two paths seemed utterly different.

Logically, on the path of Spiritual Power, he mastered a tenth of the Heaven and Earth Power.

Even combined with the path of Divine Soul, it should still only be a tenth.

But this was not the case.

The Heaven and Earth Power on these two paths were completely different.

Ling Chen could even combine them.

Reaching a level of one and a tenth.

Moreover, the Heaven and Earth Power drawn from the path of Spiritual Power could only be applied to Spiritual Power and not to Divine Soul Telekinesis.

However, the Heaven and Earth Power comprehended from the path of Divine Soul could be freely applied to Divine Soul Telekinesis or Spiritual Power.

But when the Heaven and Earth Power of the path of Divine Soul is applied to Spiritual Power, the power is exactly the same as drawing the same amount of Heaven and Earth Power with Spiritual Power.

So, Ling Chen found himself puzzled.

This issue wasn’t explained even in his inherited memories.

Although his Sea of Consciousness contained the Inheritance Crystal.

It no longer held any inheritance power.

All the inheritance was completed in the second transmission.

He pondered for a long time but came up with no clue.

Ling Chen then put it aside.

After all, being able to slightly increase his attack power like this was certainly beneficial.

Ling Chen originally planned to consult Emperor Haotian.

However, this Green Lotus Ancient Clan was ultimately still somewhat unfamiliar to him.

He had no sense of belonging.

Therefore, he had not sought advice.

He planned to return to the Flower Immortal Sect to address it later.

At least the people of the Flower Immortal Sect had saved his life, so they should not harm him.

Or, wait until he sees his mother to discuss it.

Emperor Haotian knew his mother, who was likely an Emperor Realm expert.

Possibly even at the Great Emperor level.

Thinking of this, Ling Chen relaxed a lot.

During these few days of cultivation, he found it extremely difficult to enhance Heaven and Earth Power without the Immortal Platform.

Ling Chen focused his energy on advancing the Divine Soul Realm.

Ten days later.

"White-haired brother, Brother Xuan Kong asked me to tell you that tomorrow we younger ones are gathering, first to celebrate your joining the inner clan, and second for everyone to get acquainted."

Li Kaiyan came to Ling Chen’s courtyard number four.

This was a tradition of the inner clan.

Whenever new members joined the clan, this would happen.

The timing was generally chosen after the Immortal Platform.

"Alright."

Ling Chen agreed.

"White-haired brother, have you ascended to the Emperor Realm?"

Li Kaiyan stared at Ling Chen and said.

Her big eyes showed a hint of concern.

"Mm."

Ling Chen nodded and said: "What’s wrong?"

Ling Chen was quite fond of this cute little girl.

"That’s good, but you should still be careful, tomorrow someone might challenge you!"

Li Kaiyan said.

She had lived within the inner clan since childhood, witnessing numerous gatherings like this, where every newcomer would be given a hard time.

If Ling Chen had ascended to the Emperor Realm, at least he wouldn’t lose too badly.

"I will be careful. Thank you for the reminder."

Ling Chen smiled and said.

Li Kaiyan waved her hand generously and said: "No need to be courteous. Just tell me the method to defeat the Emperor as a quasi-Emperor someday."

"Mm, I will surely tell you at that time!"

Ling Chen said.

After chatting for a while, Li Kaiyan left to cultivate.

She was only responsible for informing Ling Chen.

Other bloodline holders naturally had others to inform them.

The next noon.

Ling Chen arrived at the gathering place.

It was on a suspended platform.

Influenced by the Immortal Platform, the Green Lotus Ancient Clan people were fond of this style.

On the platform, tables and chairs had already been set, with various delicacies and fine wines on the wooden tables.

The wine was naturally the Alcohol Immortal.

By the time Ling Chen arrived, many clan members were already present.

Many actively greeted Ling Chen.

After all, Ling Chen possessed a first-class bloodline.

His future potential was unmatched by them.

The Green Lotus Bloodline affected not only combat power but also cultivation speed and potential!

All the Great Emperors in the inner clan were first-class bloodline holders.

Ling Chen embraced them all, smiling in response.

However, this situation changed when Li Xuankong arrived.

They avoided him like the plague!

Among the younger generation, Li Xuankong was unquestionably first!

Both his cultivation and combat prowess were the best, far surpassing everyone else!

Ling Chen’s glorious achievement of killing an Emperor as a quasi-Emperor made Li Xuankong feel somewhat embarrassed.

He naturally wouldn’t miss this chance to challenge Ling Chen.

Originally, this so-called gathering was essentially to give newcomers a hard time.

The clan elders also welcomed this.

"Everyone, take your seats!"

Li Xuankong said coolly.

He implicitly assumed the role of Young Clan Leader.

"Yes."

Everyone took their seats.

Each seat was marked with a name.

The seating order was arranged from senior members to newcomers and from higher bloodline levels to cultivation levels.

The three newcomers, including Ling Chen, were seated together on the south side of the platform.

Li Xuankong, Li Qingkong, and Li Kaiyan were on the north side, facing Ling Chen and the others.

The rest were on the east and west sides.

"Everyone, raise your glasses, let us celebrate Ling Chen, Li Qiushui, and Li Changtian joining our Green Lotus Ancient Clan!"

Li Xuankong said with a smile.

Everyone immediately raised their glasses.

Ling Chen and the others raised their glasses, quickly expressing thanks: "Thank you, everyone!"

Then, people started eating and drinking.

It must be said, the Alcohol Immortal in the Green Lotus Ancient Clan differed from elsewhere, with a more fragrant and mellow taste.

The delicacies were also exceptional.

It was undoubtedly the most delicious food Ling Chen had ever tasted in his life.

After three rounds of drinks and five courses of food.

"Everyone!"

Seeing everyone’s attention captured, Li Xuankong smiled slightly and said: "You all know Young Master Ling Chen killed a one-star Emperor with a quasi-Emperor level. I think everyone might want to witness this, right?"
