Chapter 415: Complementary Nature

To extract luck, Yi Chen and the Shadow King worked tirelessly, day and night, for twenty-four hours straight.

The process went very smoothly.

In just over twenty days, they successfully drained nearly all the luck from more than three hundred Tree-Dwelling Tribe members, leaving only a thread of luck for each.

This left Yi Chen’s Qi Sea filled with an extremely terrifying amount of luck.

Under normal circumstances, extracting such a vast amount of luck from the laws of heaven would take him continuously fifty years.

As per his usual practice, Yi Chen merged half of this luck into his already powerful luck.

“I have merged half of the luck I extracted into my own luck. I plan to split the remaining half in two: one part to keep for future needs and the other part to give to you.”

Yi Chen communicated with the Shadow King, “Do you plan to use it all or merge it into your own luck?”

“Thank you, Your Majesty! I wish to merge it all into my own luck.”

The Shadow King rejoiced.

This was the luck of over three hundred Tree-Dwelling Tribe members, the lowest of which was over level sixty.

The higher the strength realm, the more powerful the luck.

A quarter of that was still the luck of over eighty Tree-Dwelling Tribe members.

It was as if he had become wealthy overnight.

By following the monarch, not only did he have soup to drink, but he also had meat to eat!

“Alright!”

If he were in Yi Chen’s position, he would prefer to use half during the operation and the other half to explore the Space Stone.

This way, his actions would go smoothly without any unexpected situations.

While exploring the Space Stone and counting the spoils, he would constantly have good items that would yield great rewards.

However, the Shadow King clearly preferred future-long smoothness, wanting all the luck to merge into his own.

Yi Chen didn’t mind.

Having the luck of over eighty Tree-Dwelling Tribe members merged into the Shadow King’s luck would be enough for him to easily reach an extraordinary level of luck.

Even if unexpected situations arose during the operation due to the number of people, he could easily resolve them with his immense luck.

Perhaps the spoils would be abundant, but they might not have too many that the Shadow King could use.

That was fine!

Yi Chen immediately merged half of the luck into his own.

Then, he split the remaining luck in two, sending half into the Shadow King, merging it into his overall luck.

It was unclear if it was an illusion or psychological suggestion, but the Shadow King felt refreshed and much lighter.

“Ready to move! Don’t be careless!”

After successfully allocating the luck, Yi Chen notified the Shadow King.

He himself had no intention of going over.

The more than three hundred Tree-Dwelling Tribe members had only a thread of luck left.

Even if he hadn’t drained it all, it wouldn’t be much better, so there was no need for him to make another trip.

“Alright!”

The Shadow King nodded.

Yi Chen took out his flying treasure, entered it, and continued to comprehend the principles of heaven and earth in preparation for creating a new skill.

Meanwhile, he multitasked by practicing the Luck Technique, constantly extracting luck from the laws of heaven throughout the galaxy.

The Shadow King, on the other hand, sped away, heading toward the area of a level ninety Tree-Dwelling Tribe member while pulling out a communication stone and inputting energy into it.

Buzz!

The next second, in a military base, the Soul Emperor, who had been waiting for over half a month, felt a slight vibration from the communication stone that had been beside him.

The Soul Emperor perked up and immediately picked up the communication stone, channeling energy into it.

“Are you ready over there?”

“We are fully prepared!”

The Soul Emperor promptly responded.

“In that case, come over to the Qi Xiang System now and let me know when you reach the edge.”

The Shadow King instructed.

“Understood!”

The Soul Emperor quickly notified all the Soul Kings to assemble.

Afterward, he brought over one hundred Soul Kings into the black stone.

He moved at full speed toward the direction of the Qi Xiang System.

On the other side, the Shadow King had entered the Qi Xiang System and quickly found the level ninety Tree-Dwelling Tribe member, following closely beside him.

After waiting for over half an hour, he received notification from the Soul Emperor.

He had arrived at the edge of the Qi Xiang System.

After confirming the exact location, the Shadow King hurried over.

The Soul Emperor and all the Soul Kings awaited respectfully.

“Does your Soul Clan have any combined attack techniques?”

The Shadow King wasted no time and got straight to the point.

If he were to bring the Shadow Kings over and, coupled with his strength, launch a surprise attack, the chances of killing the level ninety Tree-Dwelling Tribe member would definitely increase.

However, according to Yi Chen’s plan, the Shadow Kings should not be involved to avoid Morris discovering that the Shadow Clan had also migrated over when he came to investigate.

If that were to happen, Morris would only need to report this matter to the foreign affairs department of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe.

The foreign affairs department of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe would definitely send strong beings over for support.

Therefore, the Shadow Kings could not be used, and they could only find help from the Soul Clan.

If Morris’s subordinates were wiped out by the combined force of the Shadow King and the Soul Clan, it would reflect poorly on Morris’s abilities.

Morris might be reluctant to seek help from the foreign affairs department of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe.

This indicates his incompetence.

Even if he did seek help, it might not be effective.

Because both the Shadow King and the Soul Clan were already documented troubles in the information provided to Morris by the foreign affairs department.

If the Shadow Kings did not take action and only relied on the Soul Clan, the difficulty would increase significantly.

After all, the most powerful member of the Soul Clan was only the Soul Emperor.

And the Soul Emperor, even though he had now reached a level of proficiency with the physical body of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe envoy, could only exhibit strength equivalent to around level one hundred seventy.

Most of the Soul Kings only had a strength realm of about one hundred forty and possessed physical bodies between level one hundred twenty and one hundred thirty, making them weaker.

The Shadow King could only hope that the Soul Clan had some combined attack methods that could produce powerful effects.

“There are no combined attack techniques, but…”

The Soul Emperor explained, “Since I obtained the body of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe, I have had to explore their various attack methods and abilities without the opponent’s memories.”

“This has allowed me to discover many weaknesses of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe. We in the Soul Clan can utilize our mental energy to instantly tear apart the energy shield in the root system of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe.”

The Shadow King’s eyes lit up: “Can you tear apart the energy shield of a level ninety Tree-Dwelling Tribe root system?”

“A level ninety?”

The Soul Emperor nearly drooled.

A level ninety Tree-Dwelling Tribe being!

If he could become the host, despite his own strength realm not being able to enhance such a powerful host’s strength, he could still display the host’s original strength realm.

This meant that his own strength would leap to around level ninety.

Even the Shadow King before him might not be able to handle him.

In fact, even if he encountered a strong being from the Tree-Dwelling Tribe again, at least he wouldn’t be completely defenseless.

“Yes!”

The Shadow King nodded.

“This…”

The Soul Emperor suppressed the overwhelming joy in his heart and appeared troubled as he said, “If I gather the mental energy of myself and all the Soul Kings, it can be done. But if that happens, I won’t be able to fight alongside the Shadow King.”

“Moreover, the opponent’s realm is as high as level ninety; it would be difficult for us to even get close, let alone have the time to utilize our mental energy to tear apart the energy shield in their root system.”

“That makes this easier!”

The Shadow King showed a delighted expression.

Sure enough, that unfortunate guy could have bad luck in anything he did.

When luck was on his side, everything he attempted would go smoothly.

In the past, when he faced misfortune, his mindset would shatter, and even the Shadow Clan could not be protected.

Now, the situation was reversed; when attempting something, encountering difficulties immediately brought about a solution.

His abilities and the Soul Clan’s methods complemented each other perfectly and could precisely counter the level ninety Tree-Dwelling Tribe being.

In fact, the success rate would be much higher than gathering a group of level eighty Shadow Kings to work together.
