In the end, it seemed as though Ling Chen's worries were for naught, as other than a few Minor Transcendence cultivators who Ling Fan had chased off with just his spiritual sense, nobody tried to interfere with his fusion.
Even if Ling Fan and Ling Yun weren't there, the two of them were confident that Lin Chen could deal with such threats on his own.
But even so, neither of the two complained in the slightest at the chance of earning 3 Saint Ranked Treasures without spending any effort in the slightest.
Finally though, after around 3 years, Ling Chen finally finished his fusion, causing the Rank 9 Formation that he was in to suddenly collapse, as all the Treasures that were holding it up in the past were finally used up in the fusion.
As soon as the formation collapsed, an aura, which had been completely suppressed up until now, suddenly erupted, causing both Ling Fan and Ling Yun to faintly frown.
At the same time though, neither Ling Fan nor Ling Yun were to be trifled with, allowing them to withstand the aura quite easily.
After around a breath of time, just as Ling Fan was about to speak, the aura which had been suppressing Heaven and Earth up until now finally retreated back into the body of its owner, who finally opened his eyes.
In but an instant, the remains of the formation around Ling Chen suddenly disappeared, causing Ling Chen to suddenly appear in front of the siblings.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, it seems as though your fusion was quite smooth," said Ling Fan as he looked at Ling Chen, who currently looked just like any other normal human.
But even so, Ling Fan could easily feel the deadly power of the Body-Refiner in front of him.
"That's right, thanks to the efforts of the two Fellow Daoists, I suffered no interference in my fusion, allowing it to go without a hitch, I have to offer you two my sincere thanks, fellow Daoists," said Ling Chen as he cupped his fists towards the two with a peaceful look on his face.
Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
But even so, the siblings were not impressed, causing Ling Chen to slightly chuckle before taking out two small boxes out of his spatial ring.
A moment later, Ling Chen let go of his control of the two boxes, allowing them to fly over to Ling Yun, who had just taken control of them.
After taking a good look inside of the boxes, Ling Yun slightly nodded her head.
"We're currently quite busy fellow Daoist, we'll be on our way if you don't have anything else for us to do," said Ling Fan as he took one final look at Ling Chen.
Then, without waiting for the Body-Refiner to respond, Ling Fan and Ling Yun immediately flew away without any hesitation.
"It's a pity, I wanted to invite the two Fellow Daoists for tea, but so be it if they don't want to stay here any longer," mumbled Ling Chen, aware of the fact that his power had made the two rather scared.
Although Ling Chen was a bit angry that the two of them doubted his character, in the end, he simply let out a faint sigh and shook his head before flying away in the opposite direction.
...
"It's as I expected, Ling Chen's power rose at least several times after his fusion..." mumbled Ling Fan as he flew next to Ling Yun, causing his younger sister to shake her head.
"That's true, even though he didn't seem to have any other ideas, I don't think it's worth it to risk things it," said Ling Yun as she touched the two boxes that she had obtained from the Body-Refining Cultivator.
With these two, as well as the first Saint Ranked Treasure, Ling Yun felt pretty confident that she could catch up to her brother once again.
A few moments later, the two siblings silently decided on what to do, and began returning to the edge of the Three Thousand Regions, to resume the pirate lifestyle the two of them had in the past.
...
At the same time, in a hidden corner of the Three Thousand Regions.
As she looked at the fifth toe which had just appeared on her whilst she was in her true form not too long ago, Ao Xie, couldn't help but slightly grit her teeth.
Even though the False Immortal Realm True Dragon could feel her cultivation speed up more and more with each moment, an unwilling look couldn't help but appear on her face.
"Damn it, how did things become like this..." mumbled Ao Xie as she transformed into her human form.
If she had known that things would've turned out like this, Ao Xie wouldn't have participated in the previous battle.
In fact, Ao Xie would've even been willing to remain hiding from the Heavenly Dao if she could avoid her current situation.
But even so, Ao Xie knew that her current fate was unavoidable, and that no amount of anger could change anything, causing her to become even angrier.
After a few moments, the True Dragon finally decided what she would do, and returned to her True Form only a few moments later.
"I'll sleep for 10 million years, let's see if you can really out wait me, worse comes to worst I'll use my Merit..." mumbled the True Dragon as she suddenly created several barriers around herself.
A few moments ago, Ao Xie fell into a deep sleep, one which she wanted to not wake up from for at least 10 Million Years.
...
Unaware of the fact that she had just obtained a new comrade who had the same philosophy as her, Xu Chang'er couldn't help but feel satisfied as she stared at the new location she had chosen for her seclusion.
Although she knew that her mother and grandmother would not leak her location, Xu Chang'er did not feel safe if anyone knew the location of her seclusion, as such, she immediately abandoned her previous location, and found this one after some effort.
After all, nobody would think that Xu Chang'er had gone to the Weakest Area of the Weakest Continent of the Weakest World of the Weakest Region of the Three thousand Regions.
Right?
