Chapter 528 - Request (2/2)

“Will the imperial family benefit the most if the formation is built now to draw the upper realm’s power?” Ou Yangming grinned.

“That’s right,” Wu Yuanwei answered with a poker face after a moment of hesitation.

“If that’s the case, why don’t you do it? Is it beyond your ability?”

“Yes, I can’t hide anything from you indeed, Master Ou,” Wu Yuanwei spoke in a deep voice, “It’s tremendously difficult to use only the upper realm’s formation to lock on us. While the Venerable Ones can sense the location, guiding the formation’s power here is similar to a blind man finding his way; the success rate is close to zero. That said, if we can also set up a formation map here and echo with the one in the upper realm from far, hehe, they’ll be able to connect the powers, and the resources spent will be reduced by at least 1,000 times.”

“That’s great, but what part of it is difficult?”

“The Interspatial Formation Map can’t be activated by ordinary people. Even if I retrieve the formation map, at least 5 Spiritualists and 1,000 Extreme Grade cultivators will be needed to activate it.”

Ou Yangming was stunned. “That many?”

Back then, 1,000 Extreme Grade cultivators would be an unreachable number.

The Humans had a great many powerhouses, but those that really took the leap to advance to Extreme Grade were extraordinarily talented. Under normal circ.u.mstances, having 300 Supreme Great Ancestors in the capital and the 8 counties altogether was the limit.

As for Spirit Grade powerhouses, they were considered legendary in this world. At the very least, for generations, apart from the imperial family, which managed to always have one, such a powerhouse was not heard of at all.

Hence, it would be impossible to gather more powerhouses in the past.

However, there was a fundamental change now.

Ou Yangming pondered and questioned, “Senior Wu, can spirit beasts make up the number too?”

“Of course. Spirit beasts aren’t inferior to equal-ranked human cultivators at all. In fact, they’re the best option.” Wu Yuanwei smiled.

“Heh.” Ou Yangming laughed. “I suppose you’re eyeing my spirit beasts?”

Wu Yuanwei flushed. “Master Ou, once the pa.s.sage to the upper realm is successfully built, we’ll benefit greatly from it too. This is for the sake of the people in the world.”

“Senior Wu, you don’t need to explain; I trust you,” Ou Yangming replied to the elder and raised another question, “How can we gather 1,000 Supreme Great Ancestors?”

He had the Simulated Spiritual Fist to help powerhouses at the peak of Yang Grade break through the limit to enter Extreme Grade, but it was not a foolproof method, and the failing rate was quite high too. Moreover, he had almost picked all of the suitable candidates from the capital in the past, so it would be impossible to find a few hundred more such powerhouses.

Wu Yuanwei answered without any delay, “I’ll communicate with the upper realm if you’re willing to contribute, Master Ou. Heh, everyone in this realm must join hands if we’d like to achieve the target. As for the profit distribution, we’ll let them decide.”

Ou Yangming looked deeply at the elder and remarked, “Senior Wu, I admire you for always thinking about the people.”

The different clans must work together if they were to find alternate candidates to a.s.semble 1,000 Supreme Great Ancestors. Wu Yuanwei brought it up to alleviate the conflict between the families, so they could discuss the important matter together.

No matter what, the elder’s way of doing this gained Ou Yangming’s deep admiration and approval.

After all, if Ou Yangming stood by idly in this realm, given that Wu Yuanwei was in Spirit Grade, he was unquestionably the greatest at the present age and could not be resisted even if the 8 counties united.

The fact that Wu Yuanwei proposed a compromise when he already had the upper hand proved how sincere he was.

Even so, this was also because of Ou Yangming and his companions. If the disaster was still ongoing, the Humans would not have wished for these when they could not even protect themselves.

All of a sudden, Hong Feiyu asked, “Brother Wu, I’d like to ask—if the two realms are connected, what will Brother Ou gain as the biggest contributor?”

Wu Yuanwei forced a smile and asked, “What do you think, Brother Hong?”

“A tenth—no matter what the upper realm attains from this realm, Brother Ou’s share is a tenth of everything.”
