Increase in Jiang Clan Strength

The moment the key was finally auctioned, there was a silence in the hall. 9,450,000, which is almost ten million spirit stones, To collect this many spirit stones, hundreds of clans like Jiang needed to be combined, and even they may not be able to come with so many spirit stones.

And this is just a key, and it is still a mystery what they will get inside the secret realm. They might get valuable treasure, or they might suffer losses due to dangers in the secret realm.

After the Jade key was auctioned, the grand auction came to an end, and slowly martial artists started to leave the hall.

Jiang Chen, his ancestor, and others did not leave yet, as they had bought the Sun Flame fruits and needed to pay the spirit stones.

A few moments later, a young woman with a servant came with an exquisite box in her hands. The young woman looked towards them and said, "Lord, this is the sun-flame fruit you bought," and the servant opened the exquisite box. Inside the box were three sun-flame fruits that were emitting a fiery aura.

Finally getting the sun's flame fruit, they are at ease. Then the patriarch quickly paid the spirit stones, and then all of them quickly left the auction, as there will definitely be chaos in a few days in the Star Meteor city because of the secret realm.

They did not stop and directly went to the Jiang Clan estate. All the other Clan members who went to the auction also have returned.

Everyone rushed into the main hall for the meeting. The patriarch invited them to assemble since there was something essential to discuss, and everyone gathered in the main hall a few minutes later, with every key member of the clan present.

The Patriarch then glanced around and noticed that everyone was there, and he began to speak, "Few days the city will be in chaos because of the secret realm news, because even if they had bought the key, they have to open quickly since they did not have much time and cannot hide it from others. There will undoubtedly be fights, and they will not be small".

"So our Jiang Clan needed to be careful not to sweft in the fights between strong clans; otherwise, our own Clan might get destroyed because of it".

Everyone hearing patriarch words nodded their heads and understood the state of the city.

"Okay, everybody needs to cultivate hard and be low-key the following days; go do your work as he still needs to talk to ancestors about an important matter," the patriarch said to all the elders and higher-ups of the clan.

Everyone was leaving, and Jiang Chen was also going to leave, but the patriarch asked him to stay. There were now only all four ancestors, the patriarch, and Jiang Chen in the hall.

Then the patriarch took out the box in which the sun flame fruits were kept and looked towards the third and fourth ancestors and said, "Ancestor, in this auction we had gotten a very important treasure that is very helpful for our clan, and then he opened the box".

"Third and fourth ancestors, with this sun flame fruit, you both can breakthrough the half-step spirit master realm, and then it will increase our clan strength. As for the last sun flame fruit, Jiang Chen, you can take it as you are the most talented member of our clan, and taking this sun flame fruit will increase your strength quickly".

The third and fourth ancestors were surprised that they got such an important resource in the auction, but they were mostly feeling ecstatic, as with the sun flame fruit they will quickly breakthrough the half-step spirit master realm. Then their Jiang clan will have four half-step spirit master in their clan .

On other side Jiang Chen was also moved by the generosity of the patriarch, as such an important resource that can make a half-step spirit master was given to him, but the sun flame fruit isn't so helpful for him since he didn't cultivate the [ Sun Flame Technique]. At most, it'll just increase his Qi, so maybe he'll break through one layer. But he did not need it, as he only needed two weeks to breakthrough, so he really did not want to waste it.

"Patriarch and ancestors I really did not need the sun flame fruit as I am only in the early stages of the innate realm; it will be wasteful to use now by him, and I am confident that I will be able to break through even without the sun flame fruit, so I think it will be better if elders use them as that will increase clan strength," Jiang Chen said with a confident voice.

After hearing Jiang Chen's confident words, the first ancestor laughed. Indeed, with Chen's talent, he really did not need sun-flame fruit.

Hearing first ancestor words "since the first ancestor said so, leave one sun-flame fruit for future use." The patriarch nodded in understanding.

After that, Jiang Chen returned to his room and started to cultivate. The chaos outside has nothing to do with him, as he is confident he will reach the king realm with the help of his sect and system.

...

Three days passed like that, but even after the end of auction, the number of martial artists in the city did not decrease but increased as the news about the secret realm reached every corner of the Spiritual Kingdom.

During these three days, nothing much changed for other clans, but a major thing happened in the Jiang Clan as the third and fourth ancestors also broke through and reached the half-step spirit master realm.

Now all four ancestors of the Jiang clan Had reached the half-step spirit master realm. They have now become the strongest Clan under the three spirit master realm forces in Star Meteor City.

And Jiang Chen also had a small breakthrough and reached the peak of the fourth layer innate, which is one step away from the fifth layer Innate.

As Jiang Chen went outside, he actually heard an interesting rumour about the secret realm.
