Chapter 486: Chapter 302 Bribery_1

“If you guys want to seize this opportunity, I’m afraid it doesn’t look promising. Even if there is a chance, the major powers are certain to come out on top. Ordinary cultivators like us will miss out. Even our Shingo Sect can only get a small piece of the pie.”

Having received Logan’s spirit stones, they now naturally considered his interests, advising him to leave earlier. Once the various sects start fighting, individual cultivators like Logan would find it hard to leave.

Logan shook his head and explained, “I’m just here for the excitement; I have no real plans regarding this opportunity. How many powers have gathered around this mountain range and how many independent cultivators are here just like me to watch the show?”

The lead person found it difficult to respond because it was all secret information that couldn’t be easily divulged. If the elders found out, there would definitely be severe punishment upon his return.

Logan understood what they meant, so he generously gave them a thousand spirit stones. Furthermore, he casually picked up a large handful of spirit stones and gave them to other people. This way, all hundred of them benefited. Despite the fear of punishment, this huge batch of spirit stones was equivalent to their annual salary.

Even within sects, it isn’t easy to acquire sufficient cultivation resources, yet now it felt as though these spirit stones had just been picked up for free. There was no reason not to accept them. Besides, Logan and his companions didn’t seem like people with ulterior motives. They appeared to be here solely to join in the chaos and should not cause any trouble.

The leader coughed and whispered, “Unclear, but six sects have arrived in total. Each sect has a half-step Saint Seat powerhouse presiding, along with three to four Strong Dominators leading teams. Including our Shingo Sect, that makes seven in total. Other minor powers can be ignored; they are only here for additional support, they basically don’t even have any powerful contenders.”

“Of course, this is all that’s visible. How many people have come secretly is unknown. In any case, I guess there must be a lot of people because it’s all about the Sanctuary Powerhouses’ opportunities, and not only one but two seems to be involved. Each sect is almost envious, wishing they could bring all their members.”

Logan nodded, the man’s words were quite frank. These powers had probably brought at least a hundred people undercover. Like the hundred people in front of him, who were sent by the Shingo Sect. And they were merely at the Transcending Realm, so you could imagine that everyone from the Throne Realm and above had also come.

Those were just the sect powers; several local lords were also involved. Their powers may not compare to the sects, but they cannot be underestimated either. Faced with such a commotion coming from the mountain range, they can’t just ignore it. Besides, some independent cultivators are also joining in the chaos, hoping to seize an opportunity as well.

Logan only estimated conservatively, but there are already thousands of people here. Among them, there were seven or eight half-step Saint Seat powerhouses, over thirty Strong Dominators and probably hundreds at the Throne Realm. The rest were all Transcendent cultivators. This force was enough to sweep away all opposition, but now they all wanted Logan alone to deal with it.

He originally intended to ask about the location where Lowen Shingo was detained, but as soon as he hinted at it, the man’s expression changed. He began to stare at Logan doubtfully while the rest were on alert, ready to strike. Logan initially wanted to hand out more spirit stones to pacify them, but then decided against it.

“I’m just curious, that’s all. Tomorrow I’ll openly kill those who want to take advantage of the chaos.” Logan quickly thought of a reason to fob them off, and these one hundred people didn’t further question him. After all, Logan only had two companions. No matter how audacious they were, it’s unlikely they would try to seize anyone. The tension earlier was merely due to their nerves being on edge.

The man gave a wry smile and shook his head, “We’re just a group of Transcendents, matters like these are usually decided by the Strong Dominators. If even we know about it, most likely it’s false information. You may have a lot of spirit stones on you, but don’t think that having spirit stones would give you the right to act recklessly here.”

His words came straight from the heart. Spirit stones are indispensable cultivation resources for every cultivator. They can be used to buy many heavenly treasures, but many sect disciples wouldn’t give them a second glance, especially those above the Throne Realm, who already have plentiful supplies of spirit stones.

In the eyes of these hundred individuals, they categorized Logan as either the young master of a certain sect or a wealthy businessman, who although had low cultivation levels, was affluent in terms of spirit stones. Hence, he could afford to be generous, but this would soon be a battlefield where several major powers vie for dominance. Spirit stones would soon become trivial.

Logan just smiled and did not explain much to these people. To avoid unnecessary problems over a long night, intending to save Lowen Shingo the next day would be too late. Logan planned to sneak Lowen Shingo out under the cover of darkness. He then wished these one hundred people luck and took Bart Cloud and his other companion to set up camp elsewhere.

Finding a deserted area, they discussed among themselves. Logan thought for a moment and was the first to speak, “For the several sects, Lowen Shingo would be a top priority. They naturally would not want Lowen Shingo to fall into the hands of other sects. Therefore, there are only two places where Lowen Shingo could be detained, one is within the Shingo Sect, and the other is at the junction of the various sects.”

Bart Cloud had no objections to this, but he leaned more towards the idea of the intersection of dukedoms. If Lowen Shingo was detained by the Shingo Sect and he revealed everything to them, the opportunity would naturally fall to the Shingo Sect. The other sects would not want this to happen, so it must be at the intersection of the dukedoms.

Choosing the intersection of the dukedoms means that every force can send people to guard and not worry about Lowen Shingo leaking information to others. They also wouldn’t be concerned about Lowen Shingo being hijacked by someone else. If something happens, all the forces would bear responsibility. Moreover, if an enemy approaches, all the major powers can rush there as soon as possible.”

“The first order of business is definitely to find out where the major forces are camped in order to analyze the possible location where Lowen Shingo is being held. Remember, we only have three hours. If we’re late, we’ll have to be prepared for the worst. Now, we three must go our separate ways. No matter the result, we must meet back here.”

Logan took a deep breath and looked at Bart Cloud and his companion. “If we can’t find him, I plan to use six hundred thousand spirit stones to set up a terrifying array. I can’t even guarantee that the array will work. If it does, it will cover the entire mountain range. If anything happens, I’ll just execute all half-step Saints.”

There was a hint of killing intent in his eyes. Just like when he dealt with the Beast King before, hadn’t he also slain the half-step Saint Demon Beast? Even if a few more half-step Saints and thousands of others were added, there wasn’t a hint of fear in his expression, much like how he had dealt with the million demon beasts before.

“I understand.” Bart Cloud nodded, once Logan made such a statement, he was prepared for a situation where both parties suffer. To prevent the situation from deteriorating to that point, naturally they must try to rescue Lowen Shingo as much as possible. After all, spending six hundred thousand spirit stones to set up an array would also have a great backlash on Logan himself.

With Logan’s current cultivation level, setting up an ordinary array would be easy, but setting up a complex array will consume spiritual power, especially when the array is amplified to a magnitude of six hundred thousand. If there’s a backlash, perhaps Logan’s entire cultivation would fall apart, and he would never be able to embark on the path of cultivation again.
