"Hmph!"


    "Although Jiang Chen''s words may hold some truth, the foundation of his argument lies in the authenticity of his ability to detect spiritual nts!"


    "Otherwise, wouldn''t we simply be aimlessly wandering while following him?"


    "Opportunities would surely elude us in such a situation!"


    A male disciple of average appearance snorted coldly, clearly a highly skeptical individual.


    "Yes, yes, yes!"


    "I believe Jiang Chen is fabricating the truth. Throughout my life, I''ve nevere across any talent that enables one to detect spiritual nts!"


    "Even those possessing Medicinal Spirit Bodies can only vaguely sense the presence of spiritual nts when in close proximity."


    A disciple hailing from Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain stepped forward and expressed his disdain.


    The Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain harbored a deep resentment towards Jiang Chen.


    Not only had Jiang Chen thwarted their schemes, but he might have also acquired the Thousand Green Pill Heart Records.


    Their animosity towards Jiang Chen ran deep and intense.


    Given the chance, they would dly tear Jiang Chen to shreds!


    If an alliance were formed, what justification would remain for eliminating Jiang Chen?


    "Jiang Chen!"


    "In my view, you should simply demonstrate your capability!"


    "Once verified, I shall represent the Azure Jade Sect in giving our consent!"


    The chief disciple of the Azure Jade Sect, a somewhat weary-looking young man, chimed in.


    "Yes!"


    "Jiang Chen,e on, demonstrate your abilities!"


    Mu Tao, the chief disciple of the Floating Spirit Sect, nodded at Jiang Chen, signaling encouragement.


    "Very well, let everyone witness my prowess."


    Jiang Chen''s lips curved into a smile. He then closed his eyes and directed his right hand towards the Spirit Condensation Bianstone Jade!


    Instantly.


    The Spirit Condensation Bianstone Jade flipped over, its me-like patterns quivering subtly.


    In fact, this was an additional function of the Spirit Condensation Bianstone Jade, enabling the extension of one''s divine sense!


    Jiang Chen executed this maneuver.


    Firstly, to create a deceptive appearance and mask his Burning World Red Lotus.


    Secondly, to enhance his divine sense''s reach and boost the chances of locating spiritual nts.


    Certainly.


    The Spirit Condensation Bianstone Jade was exclusively a treasure for those in the Spiritual Awakening realm.


    Additionally, its primary purpose was to refine divine sense.


    Inparison, the capability to extend divine sense was considerably weaker, with the amplification range limited to a mere one-fifth.


    Moreover, upon expansion.


    The overall coverage of the divine sense and the precision of observation would be substantially diminished.


    Consequently.


    Jiang Chen had never utilized this function before.


    Now, however, it could serve a valuable purpose.


    With the enhancement of divine sense, the spiritual nt detection ability provided by the Burning World Red Lotus would be significantly amplified.


    The two abilitiesplemented each other, enabling Jiang Chen to sense spiritual nts within a five-kilometer radius!


    At that moment.


    As Jiang Chen executed this maneuver, the dark me-like pattern on his forehead captured everyone''s attention.


    "What is that me-like pattern?"


    "Previously, Senior Brother Jiang Chen didn''t have this mark on his forehead. It must be another fortunate encounter he had during his descent from the mountain. How envious!"


    "..."


    Duan Ziming and the others were all deceived by Jiang Chen, not to mention the cultivators from other sects.


    "That ck me is his treasure!"


    "Can it genuinely detect spiritual nts?"


    "In my view, it''s likely urate. I''m somewhat thrilled, perhapster we might find a Heavenly Origin realm spiritual nt!"


    "The oue hasn''t emerged yet, don''t celebrate prematurely!"


    "The higher the expectation, the greater the potential disappointment!"


    The cultivators from other sects engaged in conversation, all fixated on Jiang Chen.


    At this moment.


    "I''ve found it!"


    "I won''t bother mentioning the low-level spiritual nts."


    "To the east of Ice Heart School, just over a thousand steps away, lies a cave concealing a multitude of Spiritual Awakening realm nts - the Thirteen-Leaf Fragrant Flowers!"


    "North of Floating Spirit Sect, hidden beneath an inconspicuous boulder, resides a Mysterious tform realm Thousand-Legged Spirit Stem!"


    "Regrettably, I couldn''t locate any Heavenly Origin realm spiritual nts. I''ll need to change locations for that."


    After sensing, Jiang Chen reported his findings.


    He held nothing back.


    To him, these spiritual nts held little value.


    More importantly.


    His primary concern was confronting Ye Fan!


    Allowing Ye Fan to develop ording to the original plot for the sake of minor gains would be catastrophic!


    "So quickly!?"


    "This Jiang Chen is truly adept!"


    "Let''s go! Let''s see if it''s true!"


    "I don''t believe it. We from the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain also want to go and verify! I want to expose his deception!"


    "I''m going too, I''m going too! If it turns out to be true, it would be fantastic to snatch some!"


    Instantly, a considerable number of people, exhibiting varying levels of doubt, made their way toward the location specified by Jiang Chen.


    They moved with astonishing speed.


    If it were true, a vast number of spiritual nts suitable for those in the Spiritual Awakening realm would be avable!


    And those Mysterious tform realm spiritual nts, even their sect masters would regard them as treasures!


    Before long,


    The two swiftest individuals managed to seize the spiritual nts.


    They were the chief disciples of Floating Spirit School and Ice Heart School, Mu Tao and Miao Xiaorui.


    Their sects were already situated rtively close to the spiritual nts, making them the first to reap the benefits.


    "What?!"


    "Could it be true?!"


    "Jiang Chen truly possesses the ability to sense spiritual nts in his surroundings!"


    "Sigh, I''m envious. If I had such a gift, I''d surely venture alone to im all the spiritual nts for myself!"


    "You''re naive. The Cave Heaven secret realm is treacherous; you''d likely meet your end after gathering only a few spiritual nts!"


    "Indeed. Jiang Chen made the wisest decision. His unique ability to sense spiritual nts ensures he contributes the most and reaps the greatest rewards. Inadvertently, we''ve be his protectors.


    His strategic thinking is truly impressive!"


    Astonishment rippled through the crowd, and many gazed at Jiang Chen with newfound admiration.


    As for the people of the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain, their eyes widened in disbelief!


    "How can this be?!"


    "Even possessing a Medicinal Spirit Body, aplishing such a feat is challenging!"


    "Directly sensing those far-off spiritual nts is truly astonishing!"


    "It all stems from that ck me within his brow. That power should belong to our Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain!"


    "Indeed. Our Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain excels in the arts of healing and alchemy. That treasure would be put to good use in our hands!"


    The people of the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain discussed the matter, their voices filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment.


    At that moment,


    "These spiritual nts cater to the Spiritual Awakening and Mysterious tform realms."


    "Should Ie across spiritual nts for the Heavenly Origin realm, I could detect them even more rapidly!"


    "Now, esteemed geniuses of various sects, choosedo you wish to ally with our Starry Abyss Sect?"


    Jiang Chen surveyed everyone, his smile radiant as he spoke with confidence.


    "We, the Floating Spirit Sect, consent to join forces with the Starry Abyss Sect!"


    "We, the Ice Heart School, also concur in allying with the Starry Abyss Sect!"


    "The Azure Jade Sect stands in agreement as well!"


    "We, the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain... acquiesce!"


    Following this series of promations, all four sects in proximity to the Starry Abyss Sect conveyed their eagerness to unite their efforts!


    Abruptly!


    [Ding! You have sessfully altered the plot, leading the protagonist Ye Fan to miss certain opportunities. Ye Fan''s Heavenly Fate Value has diminished by 800 points!]


    [Ding! You have rued 1500 points of Viin Value!]


    ''Incredible!''


    ''The plot has shifted!''


    ''And Ye Fan''s Heavenly Fate Value has decreased significantly! I''ve umted so many Viin Value points!''


    ''It appears that after this plot alteration, Ye Fan has indeed lost a considerable number of opportunities!''


    Upon hearing the system notifications, Jiang Chen was initially taken aback, but then a wave of tion washed over him.


    All these efforts had not been for naught!
