Bab 338: Ling Fan, Ling Yun and Ling Chen
As he looked at the five people in front of him, Ling Fan couldn't help but fall into a bit of thought for a few moments.
"So, why do you need our help, It seems as though you are quite powerful yourself, is that not true?" asked Ling Yun, Ling Fan's younger sister as she stared at the five Ling Chen's in front of them.
Hearing that, the leading Ling Chen couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.
"I need you two to protect me until my fusion is complete, It's extremely important that I'm not disturbed whilst fusing," said the leading Ling Chen as he approached the two, causing Ling Fan, who was still in thought up until now, to finally ask a question.
However, Ling Fan did not ask Ling Chen, instead, he asked someone else entirely.
'It seems as though he is sincere, and that he really wants us to help him breakthrough, what do you think, System?' asked Ling Fan as he continued staring at the Ling Chen's in front of him with a cautious look on his face.
[Preliminary analysis shows that Ling Chen will be stuck in a bottleneck until he fuses his five bodies together, he is most likely telling the truth]
Upon hearing the words of the System, who had been reliable up until now, Ling Fan finally made a preliminary decision.
"I can accept protecting you while you fuse, but what is it in it for us?" asked Ling Fan as he finally spoke, causing Ling Chen to faintly smile.
A moment later, the body cultivator took out a small box out of his spatial ring before throwing it towards Ling Yun.
After a flash of hesitation, Ling Yun finally opened the box, revealing a small, perfectly white fruit sitting in the middle.
"You can consider this my generosity, this is a Saint Rank Yin Fruit, that I've spent a lot of effort obtaining, which should be able to benefit your 9 Yin Physique quite a lot," said Ling Chen as he looked at Ling Yun, causing the eyes of the siblings to suddenly widen.
"That should be enough to have me help you, but what about my brother?" asked Ling Yun, as she stared at Ling Chen with a fierce look in her eyes, clearly wanting to haggle.
"You can have two more of these fruits after I finish my fusion."
"Deal."
Before Ling Yun said anything, Ling Fan immediately accepted Ling Chen's offer, causing Ling Yun to turn towards him with a slightly aggrieved look on her face.
'It's fine, these fruits should be able to save you tens of thousand of years of work, all for just a small amount of effort, we got a good deal,' said Ling Fan, his voice appearing in the mind of his sister.
Hearing that, Ling Yun, who had originally wanted to also get some benefits for her brother, couldn't help but slightly snort.
"Fine, we agree to your deal," said Ling Yun, causing Ling Chen to faintly smile.
"I knew that the two of you would not disappoint me, my Fusion should not take very long in the slightest, at most 2 or 3 years, I just need a few months of preparation," said Ling Chen, causing the two to take out their meditation mats without any care in the world and sit down.
Seeing this, the leading Ling Chen slightly smiled and began getting to work, followed by the four others.
...
3 months later,
'He's really quite rich...' thought Ling Yun as she looked at the formation that had been created in front of them.
Although technically, the formation was not very impressive in the slightest, that weakness was made up using valuable resource, allowing the Ling Chen's to create a Rank 9 Formation.
Of course, this was only possible because of the dozens of Saint Rank Materials and Treasures that Ling Chen used to create the formation.
If Meng Lin had used these same materials, she would probably be able to create a few dozen Rank 9 Formations, illustrating just how much wealth Ling Chen used for his fusion.
Even Ling Yun, who was usually, quite honest, was actually tempted as she looked at the treasures Ling Chen had, causing her to think about returning to her past profession of being a pirate.
Of course, Ling Chen was not to be underestimated, as such, Ling Yun shook those risky thoughts out of her head and focused on the situation in front of her, as Ling Chen finally approached the two.
"I'm about to begin my fusion, you two just need to watch out for anyone trying to interfere, don't let anyone get close," said one of the Ling Chen's, causing the siblings to simply nod before separating, appearing on the left and right side of the formation respectively.
Seeing this, the Ling Chen took in a deep breath before flying to his respective corner of the formation.
By that point, the other four Ling Chen's were already ready to begin the fusion, causing it to begin only a few moments later.
...
As he felt the powerful Dao Saint auras of the five Ling Chen's disappear, seemingly fusing into that formation, Ling Fan, who was currently stretching out his spiritual sense and watching for any intruders, couldn't help but faintly frown.
'System, what is your opinion, will we be able to match Ling Chen after his fusion?'
[Do not worry host, based on my estimate, if you and your sister team up, you should have no problem escaping him, using the power of the System is currently unnecessary]
Hearing that, Ling Fan couldn't help but fall into thought.
'Maybe I overestimated what his strength will be like after his fusion...' thought Ling Fan as he stared at the middle of the formation, where Ling Chen's new body was currently forming.
A few moments later, Ling Fan shook his head and took this intrusive thought out of his mind before turning his attention back onto the outside world.
