《War Sovereign of Wasteland》 C1 In a corner of the great wasteland, there was a small and strange mountain that covered an area of over a hundred zhang. BOOM! One day, with a loud noise, the small mountain suddenly exploded. Without any warning, the figure of a man came out from inside the mountain. Who knew how many years he had been inside the mountain. Hmm, today it is really strange, to actually let me, an old man, blast a living thing out too. In the distance, there was another old man talking about strange things. He stroked his beard as he carefully sized up the place. There were rumours of monsters in this desolate land from time to time, so he didn''t care about these things at his age. Let''s go. Since you''ve helped me to get out of this situation, it means that there''s some fate behind you. Come with me to the Qing Xuan Sect. The man carelessly wiped his face, revealing his original appearance. He was actually a handsome young man. I''m not going with you. The mines over here need to be dug up first, so you should hurry up and leave. The old man waved his hand and actually showed some dissatisfaction. He had seen quite a few monsters in the past few years and knew that he had lost his life. Hehe, that''s fine too. Being in his later years here is a form of freedom. Surprise flashed through the eyes of the young man, but he didn''t continue nagging and turned around to leave. Suddenly, the old man''s body shook slightly. He put down the hoe in his hand and stared in the direction the young man went. The strange look in his eyes was definitely not that of an ordinary old farmer. Half a month later, the young man appeared at the edge of the great wasteland. After walking for such a long time, he obviously looked somewhat tired. Alas, he had finally returned. The young man sighed as he looked at the large words on the large rock in front of him, which gave him a special feeling of heaviness. This sect could be said to be extremely famous in the Wasteland. It was one of the few supreme powers, and had produced quite a few Sage Realm Rankers in succession. It had stood tall for a long time, and had been in existence for over a thousand years. The Senior Expert s of the sect had passed away one after another, and there were never any experts of the younger generation that had led the troops. Just a glance at the situation was enough to see them falling into disgrace, and they were in a state of gradual decline in the entire Great Wastelands Cultivation Realm. Stop, this is already my Qing Xuan Sect''s territory, outsiders are not allowed to approach. As expected, Chen Fan was stopped, and the two gatekeeper disciples shouted out. Hey, go call your Sect Leader out, I have something to tell him. Chen Fan shouted back as well, with a calm expression, as if what he said was the most logical thing to do. Go away, where did this lunatic come from? If you take another step closer, don''t blame me for not showing mercy! One of the janitor disciples rebuked. Ever since Sect had begun to decline, there would be many people who would come to provoke them, attempting to use the stepping stone of Qing Xuan Sect to rise to the sky in one step. The problem was that they had to have some skills, they couldn''t just do things like cats and dogs. What''s more, this guy opened his mouth to see the Sect Leader. He did not have a strong aura around him, so in the eyes of the two disciples that were guarding him, he was definitely a homeless person. I have said it already, go find your Sect Leader and let him see this jade pendant. This pendant is a grand plan that concerns the life and death of Qing Xuan Sect. A small thing with a sparkling and translucent luster appeared in Chen Fan''s hand. It looked to be of the texture of jade, as though there were many strange veined patterns on the surface of the thing, but it was truly difficult to discern with the naked eye. You reckless fool, my Sect Leader is also someone you can meet whenever you want to? I''m giving you one last chance, get lost! The two disciples were getting impatient. They had never seen such an arrogant person before. Of course, their brains were burnt out. How could a normal person say so much nonsense? Hehe, the more furious you become, the more the meridians in my Chen Fan''s body have dried up a long time ago. A ray of light shot out from the center of his palm, aimed at Chen Fan''s head and started to kill him. After all, he was a disciple of a large sect. However, Chen Fan only smiled slightly, with a flash of his feet, he left behind afterimages as he appeared behind the Daoist child''s back. A cold wind blew, and Chen Fan''s palm strike was already at his neck. You... What are you doing?! The poor little Daoist was frightened and stammered. The face of the person next to him also instantly changed, momentarily forgetting to go to the mountain gate and call for reinforcements. Not bad, not bad, the terrifying power is still as delicious as before. Chen Fan licked his lips. He had not come into contact with any living beings in the past thousand years, this feeling was a little strange even to him. I will also only say it one last time. Take this jade pendant and call Sect Leader over, don''t try to challenge my bottom line! Although he did not have a hint of cultivation, it was still strange. The more intense the emotions of the two Qing Xuan Sect disciples were, the more power he would have at his hands, which was truly strange. No matter what, they were genuine Cultivator s, but they were actually scared by an unarmed mortal. The situation was truly strange. Go get someone for me, I want to see your Sect Leader in half a quarter of an hour. Chen Fan pointed at the guy in front of him, and after he finished speaking, he held his five fingers together slightly. Those fingers were even sharper than daggers, as though he had moved them back and forth on his neck, and the disciple who was restrained nearly collapsed. That''s right, be afraid, tremble. Think about the scene when your nails pierced your blood vessels and your life force will rapidly drain. You will soon report to the Underworld ¡­ Chen Fan became even more excited. The two did not have direct contact with each other, but as long as the fear of this disciple was strong enough, the power in his body would once again grow. What was going on? Just at this time, coincidentally, there was a Qing Xuan Sect Protector who was out on a mission. Seeing this, he could not help but shout out loudly, and the dust in his hands started to move, countless white silk threads interweaving in the air, changing into a huge net shape and enveloping everything down. Sensing the sudden increase in pure Spiritual Energy s, Chen Fan took a deep glance at this old fellow. It was true that the hair protection expert was extremely angry, he was able to easily crush that little Daoist just now. Now was not the time to think about all these. Chen Fan fiercely stomped on the ground, his entire body jumping high into the air, dodging the large net with an unbelievable angle, and quietly landing at the side. You old bastard, you''re just so capable. It''s better to roll down here as soon as possible and fly with all your might. Chen Fan purposely angered the protector, wanting to get even more angry. This was the key point for him to continue persevering. C2 However, before he could catch his breath, he felt a strong gust of wind coming from behind him. The densely packed silk threads were rolling over and over again, abandoning the previous net. They once again formed a crescent moon shaped saber, which whizzed through the air and aimed at his forehead. Wait, look at this jade pendant! Chen Fan flung away the disciple, and took out the small items that he had hung on his waist. He had purposely instilled this thing with a, causing it to release mysterious fluctuations in the air, which was easily sensed by the protector. The curved blade that was about to fall to the ground suddenly stopped, Chen Fan heaved a sigh of relief. Phew, I can''t take such a risk in the future. The power of the soul subconsciously scanned the interior of the jade pendant, and couldn''t help but frown, as if there was a familiar impression there. When he looked at Chen Fan again, his gaze also changed, and actually started to have an unfathomable feeling towards this ordinary person. Protector Liu is an esteemed guest of my Qing Xuan Sect, so please don''t be rude, and invite him to this old man''s place. An aged voice came from the depths of the mountain gate, but it did not disturb the other disciples. You come in with me. Protector Liu''s voice was ice-cold as he walked through the gate. However, Chen Fan still stood at his original position. Hey hey hey, old man, why aren''t you obedient? Your parents invited me in, and this is how they treat their guests? Don''t go too far! If not, he would definitely beat this brat up. No one had ever dared to speak to him like that. Let me feel your sincerity. Feeling the large number of Spiritual Energy s quickly gushing through his meridians, Chen Fan was secretly pleased. With this jade pendant in hand, as long as he could enrage enough Senior Expert, theoretically speaking, it would only take a few years to return to its peak state. This Little Fellow Taoist, if the elders request so, this old man will lead the way for you. The Protector Liu patiently and stiffly made a hand gesture. Chen Fan did not mind, and sensibly followed him towards the source of the aged voice. Along the way, Chen Fan saw all sorts of familiar scenes, and they were completely the same as the structures from a thousand years ago. Chen Fan was also filled with emotion, but he did not expect that he would be able to unintentionally leave behind such a simple source of power through the Qing Xuan Sect, and it just so happens that it could help him regain his new life today. The elders of the Qian Yuan Palace and the Qing Xuan Sect gathered together. They could all feel the strange fluctuation coming from the jade pendant, which had an extraordinary significance to them. I can see that this Little Fellow Taoist is quite intelligent, he alone barged into our mountain gate, he might be the son of some big family, what is your name? The one who asked was the Sect Leader, Spiritual Master Lan Yu. Chen Fan. Can you let this old man take a closer look at that jade pendant, so that I can determine if our guess is correct. Nope. Chen Fan passed it over to them, and the gazes of several old fellows shifted towards it as well. Oh right, what kind of place is the Chen Fan Little Fellow Taoist? This old man''s Qing Xuan Sect is far away, and there doesn''t seem to be a city within a thousand miles. He had lived in the Wasteland since he was young, and he had lived in seclusion for many years. He no longer knew about his past in the outside world. Hehe, that is truly fate. This old man had been here before when I was young ¡­ I know all of you. Chen Fan waved his hands, interrupting''s words, indicating that this boring family business can end now. Obviously, he was doing it on purpose to show off, especially after the two elders in the hall snorted in dissatisfaction. Chen Fan was even more excited. If he could, he wouldn''t mind getting angered by these old guys. That way, he could easily acquire 20% of his former strength. Where did you get this jade? In the end, he was still the Lord of Sect Leader, so even though he was being treated like this, Spiritual Master Lan Yu was still able to calmly ask. ancestral. Chen Fan''s words were concise and he used the excuse he had prepared a long time ago. When you were holding this jade pendant, did you notice anything strange? Since I brought it here, there must be a reason for it. Your suspicion has made me rather frightened. Several elders asked, showing the importance they attached to this piece of jade. Everyone''s face was filled with seriousness, as the higher-ups of the Qing Xuan Sect, they were very clear on just how much weight this jade held. Little fellow, you should know where this place is. If you just casually heard some rumor from some mouth, or you accidentally obtained this item with the intention of receiving its reward, this old man would advise you to keep those thoughts in your head. The Great Elder''s voice was cold, confirming their feelings about the appearance of the jade pendant. It was as if an old friend who should have died a long time ago had suddenly appeared in front of them. This feeling was difficult to put into words. Great Clan Elder does not want to scare our guest, so the Third Clan Elder at the other side replied and looked straight into Chen Fan''s eyes. Whatever you know, say it. If you want to receive the reward, you should give us a reason to believe it. This jade pendant was supposed to be a gift to the Qing Xuan Sect but as its owner, I don''t want to give it to you anymore. Chen Fan said in all seriousness. Right now, he did not have any life-saving methods he could use, he had to think of a way to scare these few old fellows. Because you just stare at this jade pendant and don''t believe what I''m saying at all. Chen Fan said in all seriousness. Hm? Spiritual Master Lan Yu was startled by the sudden question, and immediately coughed to hide his embarrassment. What are you saying, Little Fellow Taoist? Since the jade pendant is in your hands, then you are my esteemed guest in Qing Xuan Sect. This old man and the others only understand it as usual. I have a special restriction in my head. If you guys want to take action, you might not be able to get any information. Furthermore, this jade pendant is just a Ancient Token of Grand Master, is it worth it to make such a big fuss over it? Chen Fan moved his finger, and the jade piece returned back to his palm from Spiritual Master Lan Yu''s hands. This thing had a telepathic connection with him, so naturally it was controlled by his arm, and he did not even need to use a Spiritual Energy to control it. To be able to snatch something from the hands of a Qing Xuan Sect Sect Leader at such a young age, even if the latter didn''t have any defenses, it would still mean that Chen Fan was holding back. Impudent, my Qing Xuan Sect and Ancient Token of Grand Master are divine objects, they are also items that a brat like you can casually point at! Hehe, if it wasn''t for the fact that my cultivation has yet to recover and I need to start from the beginning in this life, why would I let you old guys make the decision? Chen Fan sneered in his heart. Of course, he had to remain low-key on the surface, in order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble. C3 It was simply a joke. In Chen Fan''s memories, this Qing Xuan Sect was precisely established by his good-for-nothing third disciple. If they were to truly talk about seniority, then these few old fellows in the hall would have to care about what he called it. Little Fellow Taoist Chen Fan, where exactly did you learn about this jade pendant was it from? The second elder could not hold his breath anymore. There were very few rumors about Ancient Token of Grand Master in the Cultivation Realm, and no matter how he looked at it, this brat did not seem to know about such a secretive person. I have already told you this before, this jade pendant is the inherited treasure of my family. My little grandfather had already told me everything about the Qing Xuan Sect, the origins of the Ancient Token of Grand Master, and so on. Chen Fan responded with absolute confidence. If it was someone that Spiritual Master Lan Yu and the others wanted to verify, Chen Fan would not hesitate to blurt out many memories of his past. The reason he left this Ancient Token of Grand Master was because he had a trustworthy treasure in his hands right now. Sigh, I never thought that the Ancient Token of Grand Master would reappear, I wonder if it would be a disaster or a blessing ¡­ The few elders had already personally appraised it just now. At this moment, an inexplicable expression appeared on their old face, as if they were slightly bitter. It could be said that this object carried the extremely glorious history of Qing Xuan Sect. A few thousand years ago, when the Sect was flourishing, it firmly occupied the throne of the number one sect. This thing was said to be intertwined with the destiny of Qing Xuan Sect. Although it did not possess the slightest bit of actual power, it was known by the entire Cultivation Realm, and the ingredients used were prodded by its own ancestors. Not long after that, the Qing Xuan Sect met with a change, and the Ancient Token even disappeared without a trace. Do you have any other elders in your family? The Great Clan Elder suddenly asked with a trembling voice. This was a very rare sight for a Senior Expert like him. Grandfather and a few other uncles passed away one after the other. Father had also left the Barbarian Domain half a year ago. Chen Fan had a hint of sadness. Considering his current age, this expression was just right. What? Did the Great Elder remember something? Spiritual Master Lan Yu sensed that something was wrong, but the former did not seem to have any intention of explaining. Since the few elders have asked, can I ¡­ Chen Fan lightly twisted his finger. To merchants, this posture meant true gold and silver clattering. What do you want? As long as you can hand over the Ancient Token according to your wishes, and the Spiritual Being that my Qing Xuan Sect can take out, you can say whatever you want. After conversing with each other using Spiritual Consciousness, Spiritual Master Lan Yu spoke to Chen Fan. The latter was not too shocked, this was already within his expectations. Everyone knew that Ancient Token of Grand Master and Qing Xuan Sect were connected due to fate, so no one could explain the reason behind it. However, the thousands of years had passed with many instances where the reason was proven, that whenever the Ancient Token of Grand Master returned, the Qing Xuan Sect would be able to expand once. At that time, the few ancestor''s words had already come out, but anyone who obtained the approval of the Ancient Token, before returning their Sect, was able to propose a condition that could not be refused. From this indisputable fact, one must obtain satisfaction from Chen Fan so that he could hand over the Ancient Token according to his wishes. Only then, Lan Yu and the others would be considered to have returned this strange divine object. I want your eighth seat! The words that came out from Chen Fan''s mouth startled Spiritual Master Lan Yu and the others. This is not possible. Even though my Qing Xuan Sect has been declining for quite a while, given my position as a Sect Elder, how could I just hand it over to you for free? The Second Elder rejected him immediately. This old man thinks that you can change the conditions, and open the thousand year old treasury to choose from, until Little Fellow Taoist Chen Fan is satisfied. The Third Elder''s suggestion was equally tempting. The background of a transcendent power had always been strong and powerful. If all of you have the same opinion, I would rather throw it into the Wasteland. Chen Fan said resolutely. His attitude was extremely unyielding and he did not plan to make any concessions. If it was only a simple disciple, then his status would really be too low. Moreover, he could not accept that it was necessary for him to step into the decision-making circle of Sect as soon as possible. The few elders looked at each other, but did not dare to say anything more. There''s no need to be anxious, this old man should understand how young people are, maybe we can delay a little, but elder seats are very important, it''s not too realistic to decide in one sentence, what do you think? The dignified Lord of Sect Leader, Spiritual Master Lan Yu could only compromise and try to pacify Chen Fan. There''s still room for discussion on this matter, so we''ll discuss it later. We''ll first arrange a residence for Chen Fan and Little Fellow Taoist. Anyone with a discerning eye would be able to tell that this old fellow was definitely holding back his words. But unfortunately, Bai Yu was going to be promoted to the position of an elder tomorrow, and out of all of the Sect, only his qualifications and strength matched up to it ¡­ The Fifth Elder''s mutterings were not loud, and it just so happened that everyone in the hall could hear his. What? Hearing this, Chen Fan was immediately at a loss. The first step of his grand plan to regain control of his Qing Xuan Sect had been obstructed, and this was something he absolutely could not tolerate. There''s still someone who wants to rob me of my position as an elder. I''ll go and fight with him right now and see who is so arrogant! This was a plan that he had been planning for a long time, starting from the Qing Xuan Sect Elder. Spiritual Master Lan Yu:... At this moment, the other elders had baffled expressions on their faces, but they didn''t say anything. The word ''arrogant'' should be more suitable to describe who the person was referring to. It was indeed a questionable question. Relying on the fact that he had the Ancient Token of Grand Master in his hands, Chen Fan immediately demanded the title of an elder. His appetite was so big that it was practically arrogant, let alone challenging Bai Yu who was preparing to advance. Chen Fan didn''t like being passive. No matter when, where, or even if the trump cards in his hands were all zero, he had to at least show such a strong attitude. Under his insistence, Spiritual Master Lan Yu had no choice but to send someone to inform Bai Yu and call him to the Qian Yuan Palace. As Chen Fan confronted him face to face, the Sect Leader Lord was unable to understand what the latter was trying to do. He clearly did not have a single bit of his cultivation, yet he was able to take back the Ancient Token from him like he was taking back a white blade with his bare hands. C4 The disciples who were cultivating nearby had already been chased away, the little errand boys outside the Qian Yuan Palace had all been emptied out, there was an open space between Bai Yu and Chen Fan, the atmosphere gradually became tense. I heard that you were the one who stole my seat as an elder? Chen Fan stared coldly at the old man in front of him. Of course, he only had gray hair on his temples, and was much younger than and the others. What a joke, I have prepared dozens of years for tomorrow''s elder to be promoted, what do you think you are, do you really think you can do whatever you want with just a Ancient Token of Grand Master?! Bai Yu replied harshly. This was his long-cherished wish for many years and was about to succeed. How could it be stopped by an outsider? I''m really sorry, with this thing in my hand, I can really do whatever I want. Chen Fan intentionally raised the jade pendant on his waist, not caring about how he could anger Bai Yu anymore. Although the two of them seemed to be opposing each other, Chen Fan suppressed the wild laughter in the bottom of his heart, and successfully stirred the old fellow''s anger. This was a situation that was greatly beneficial to him. Previously, he''d been worried that these old foxes would be able to cultivate a state of mind as calm as an ancient well, but now, it seemed that such an important change in interests related to the Elder''s seat would cause even a boulder to sway three times over. You! The pitiful Senior Expert who was originally going to become a Qing Xuan Sect Elder was actually choked to the point of not being able to say a single word. He didn''t even have the ability to joke around with his Sect. Little Fellow Taoist Chen Fan, this old man can indeed agree to your request, but you must also think about my Qing Xuan Sect. Sect Leader stood out to smooth things over. He never thought that there would come a day when he, for the sake of a little brat, would be in a dilemma. If you reveal your trump card, you and I will have a fair fight. If you really have some trump cards, then I can still place my position as an elder with you. Chen Fan said in a deep voice, his gaze sharp and stared straight at the opponent. Hmph, don''t think that this old man would fall for your trick so easily, if I accidentally beat you to death here, wouldn''t I have to bear the crime of destroying the luck of the Sect?! Bai Yu had not reached the stage where he would lose his mind due to anger. If this Little Fellow Taoist wants to spar with Bai Yu, we will definitely ensure your safety. We will just have to take care of the Ancient Token of Grand Master well. The Great Clan Elder added, clearly worried that Chen Fan would be killed by the latter. When that time came, the Ancient Token of Grand Master would definitely agree that Qing Xuan Sect would forcefully take action, and who knows what kind of place the unfathomable balance of destiny would tilt to, which would be a calamity to the increasingly declining Qing Xuan Sect. You''re the first person in years to force me to swear an oath on the spot. Chen Fan stared coldly at Bai Yu, and said after a long while: Today''s attack was done voluntarily by me, so even if it cost my life, it also has nothing to do with Qing Xuan Sect. Boom! Without any warning, after swearing the oath, Chen Fan could no longer hold back, his hands instantly started to tremble, he immediately instigated a large group of Spiritual Energy to rush out, rushing towards Bai Yu. This was the purest and most direct attack, and it was also able to see the realm of the Cultivator. From the moment he finished speaking to the moment he mobilized such a large number of Spiritual Energy, only half a breath had passed, it was a considerably large test for the physical body. Bai Yu immediately regained his senses. As he waved his sleeves, it was as if countless white threads were emitted from within. They quickly interweaved in the air to form a huge net, which rushed back to Chen Fan and pressed down on him. On one side was the rolling waves, and after Chen Fan had rested for a long time, he used the Ancient Token of Grand Master s to make his move. On the other side was a dense web. The Spiritual Energy that was as unstoppable as a mountain torrent flowed over, pressing down so much that the space around it started to wrinkle. Bai Yu continued to add onto the Tao net, firmly binding thirty meters in front of him. Bang! Muffled sounds rang out, but none of them managed to gain the upper hand during the first test. Only after both of them had retreated a dozen steps did they manage to stop the terrifying force from the other side. The two of them clashed for the first time, and after a few cracks appeared on the ground due to the violent shockwaves, but they quickly healed on their own. Naturally, there was a Spell Formation protector in the hall, and even if the sword pierced through the ground, no one would notice any changes in the outside world. Not bad, he had a bit of the airs of an elder, and was much stronger than those guys who were speaking in a casual manner. Chen Fan spoke in a completely senior tone, arrogantly instructing the younger generation, which made Bai Yu exceptionally angry. Kid, you should be clear that if not for that jade pendant, you would have died more than a hundred times. Bai Yu was so angry that he almost couldn''t hold back the wild smile on his face. Rumble rumble rumble! The two of them used their respective spirit arts, causing the net in front of Bai Yu to look as if it had become a blade, incomparably sharp. Every single net could easily tear apart space, let alone an ordinary cultivator''s body. If he was caught by that Dao net, unless he had absolute power suppression, it would be hard to escape. Sect Leader and a few elders who were spectating from the side secretly wiped away their sweat, afraid that Bai Yu would be unable to control himself and take Chen Fan''s life. Swish! Swish! Swish! His figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye, a dozen or so rounds had occurred in the great hall. Even Bai Yu could only see a series of afterimages, yet, he was still unable to pinpoint where Chen Fan''s body was. Other than the fact that he was using the jade pendant, the reason why Chen Fan was moving so quickly and swiftly was because there was another invisible force supporting him with that mysterious force. At first glance, it looked like he was coming out of thin air, but when he followed the source of the power to investigate, it was actually coming from Bai Yu''s body! The Heart Consuming Incantation was a mystical technique that was only achieved after Chen Fan had experienced a calamity which left him with a slim chance of survival. It was an existence that stood at the forefront even when placed within the Cultivation Realm at that time. Since he dared to act so arrogantly in front of the Sect Leader and the few clan elders, and even intended to sleep for thousands of years before rising up again, he was sure that he had other cards up his sleeve. The Heart Consuming Incantation that he cultivated in his body was one of them. All living beings in this world would have emotions and desires, and the Heart Consuming Incantation was aimed at the mental state within, and it was quite heaven-defying. No matter what kind of emotions these people revealed, as long as it was within a certain distance, it would be able to help Chen Fan increase his fighting strength. Although it would dissipate in a short amount of time, it would be better to use it in a fight. Speaking of fighting experience, Chen Fan was actually more experienced than Bai Yu. It was just that after being revived, the power in his body was so empty that it was hard to use. C5 After shattering more than ten afterimages on Chen Fan''s body, Bai Yu could not resist the endless pursuit. He stood in his original position, his robes slowly puffed up, and instantly, a burst of gale filled the air, engulfing everything in a tornado. This little fellow''s talent is not bad. It would be great if he could be this old man''s disciple. From these two moves, it could be seen that Chen Fan was at least one of the top ranked among the Qing Xuan Sect young generation. Heh, I''m afraid that if you want him to be your disciple, he might still want to be your master. The Great Elder teased, his eyes filled with shock. Currently, the Qing Xuan Sect was gradually declining, and exactly in need of cultivating this kind of young talent in the future, as a mainstay of the Sect. It''s just that Chen Fan''s arrogance, in the eyes of the elders, was also considered to be top-notch. The same number of spirals quickly appeared around Chen Fan''s body, constantly wearing down his vitality, and immediately forced him into a corner. There wasn''t much left to begin with, and if the old fellow were to continue fighting like this, what capital would he have to start anew? Weng! * A large amount of Talisman s appeared in Chen Fan''s hand, all of which were manifested after the Spiritual Energy had been refined to its peak. Of course, they were secretly using their powers to block the whirlpools. Bai Yu continued to exert his strength, as though he was going to pierce through space and attack. He used all of his strength to instigate the hurricane and rush forward, but he could not break through the layer of Light Shield that seemed to be illusionary. Get down! Chen Fan bellowed, he did not know when he appeared above Bai Yu''s head, but no matter how sharp the net was, it could not threaten his existence, following that was a punch that struck down, as though there was a thousand kilograms of force behind it, ruthlessly smashing the latter. His hands trembled anxiously, and while he was surprised at Chen Fan''s extreme speed, Bai Yu continued to launch large scale attacks, releasing a sharp whistle sound, unexpectedly transforming into a large army, and rushing towards Chen Fan in unison. The other party became even angrier, and naturally, the amount of energy he could channel in his hands also increased as more and more profound Seal s emerged from the center of his palm. All of these ancient techniques were dug out from his sea of consciousness, and they smashed towards Bai Yu like a rain of boulders. Sssii! * Sssii! * Sssii! * Intense rubbing sounds resonated in the hall, and even a few large pillars shook violently. Fortunately, the Great Clan Elder held him down, causing the battle to once again enter a deadlock. Bai Yu could not believe that he was unable to handle this brat. The sound wave energy that was emitted from his mouth became even more powerful, immediately becoming a surging wave, the surrounding spirit energy started to be mobilized, Chen Fan on the other hand, was constantly moving his body, on the other hand, he was not able to get the upper hand, and had countless Seal s in his hands for him to use. In theory, with Bai Yu''s personality, he should even be able to spend a day or two with Chen Fan. In any case, all of the energy would be sucked out from his body. Alright, this old man shall let this matter rest for the time being. Since Little Fellow Taoist Chen Fan is new here, why don''t we rest for the night? Sensing that the latter was not very strong, the Sect Leader gave him a step forward in time. At the same time, he secretly sent a sound transmission to Bai Yu. If Chen Fan suffered a crushing defeat, no one could say what this incomparably arrogant guy would do, or even make use of this possibility to directly destroy the Ancient Token of Grand Master. This time, the Great Clan Elder personally took action, an incomparably vast force enveloped the entire hall, isolating both Chen Fan and Bai Yu. Only when both parties stopped did they unhurriedly remove the restrictions. What I want is something that no one is allowed to fight over, or you can give me conditions that will satisfy me. Chen Fan snapped his fingers, revealing a pleased smile. When Sect Leader and the Great Clan Elder heard this, they assumed that it was because of him, but just as they were about to echo out, they heard another crisp sound, as if something had been broken. Ka-cha! * It was actually the black light that was shot out by Bai Yu just now. At this moment, it gave out a muffled sound all of a sudden, causing a few elders to be shocked, as they thought that the old fellow would receive some sort of heavy injury. Of course, Bai Yu''s body was not so weak, it was just that the jade pendant that he carried with him was broken, causing his face to become slightly red, and he quickly retreated two steps, only then was he able to withstand the force. Little Fellow Taoist, isn''t this a bit too much ¡­ Sect Leader shot a ray of spiritual light at Bai Yu, and noticed that the latter did not suffer too much damage from this attack, but realized that this action was somewhat inappropriate. He was already a Sect expert who was about to advance to an elder, how could he be plotted against by a little fellow. I''m just giving you guys a warning, don''t try to play any tricks here. Chen Fan wasn''t afraid in the slightest. As long as Ancient Token of Grand Master was in his possession, he didn''t believe that these old fellows had the guts to make a move. Moreover, that was only the power of the Heart Consuming Incantation to return. All of it came from Bai Yu''s anger, so it could be considered as his own gain. The few elders'' expressions were dark and cold. No one expected Chen Fan to still have this kind of secret attack, since he had already distanced himself from the others and was still able to injure them from such a distance. Even if Bai Yu''s old face was a little ugly, he still wouldn''t be able to forcefully attack them. Lead the way, I''m tired and need some rest. Chen Fan said casually. He had already achieved his goal of establishing his might, there was no need for him to be long-winded about it, the remaining matters would probably be decided by the elders. Sending this Little Fellow Taoist to Jade Spring Peak, they treated him as an elder. Sect Leader was pinched by the Ancient Token of Grand Master to the point of death, he had no other choice but to call for the two little daoists, to replace him as the god of pests. The god of plague was also a god, so he had to keep it for himself as well. In the end, Chen Fan waved his hand, pointed to the portrait of the ancestor, and said, Your painting has been cut in half. It is fortunate that you have been worshiping your ancestors for so many years, even causing your own ancestors to be mistaken. The third generation of ancestors and the founder of the sect were confused. What a joke, the founder of Qing Xuan Sect was Chen Fan''s good-for-nothing little follower. Even after a thousand years, he wouldn''t be wrong. Get lost! The few elders shouted out at the same time in their hearts, the veins on their faces throbbed, as though they wanted to go on a rampage. Alright! At the same time, the scolding of the elders caused Chen Fan to instantly feel refreshed. He arrogantly walked out of the hall, and he felt the power within his body invisibly increase by a few points. The more he scolded, the more comfortable he felt. C6 Too arrogant, too arrogant! What did he say? Not long after Chen Fan left, the Second Elder could no longer hold back. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He actually wants to give us a warning. This old man has never seen such an arrogant junior in all my years of cultivation! Hmph, a mere wet behind the ears brat. Relying on his ability, he actually doubted my Qing Xuan Sect''s ancestor, which nearly drove him crazy to the heavens. This old man remembers that this painting did indeed have a dispute before, it seems like two of the Grand Elders said that there was some hidden story behind it ¡­ The Sixth Elder said in a low voice, equally angry. This isn''t the main point of the matter. That brat has only just arrived on the first day of my Qing Xuan Sect, yet he is already disrespecting our ancestor. He clearly doesn''t put us elders in his eyes, and he cannot allow his scheme to succeed. The crowd in the hall was excited, even the Senior Expert s who were normally calm were provoked, wishing that they could summon Chen Fan back here and take him down right in the middle of the hall. Alright, what''s the use of talking about that now? Let''s get down to business, what should we do about the position of an elder? Sect Leader interrupted all the useless words. This was the most urgent matter at hand. Bai Yu immediately perked up his ears. This matter had a lot to do with him and it was impossible for something like this to happen. Even if there were Ancient Token of Grand Master, he would try his best to persuade a few elders, otherwise these past few decades of hard work would all be in vain. No matter if it was in terms of cultivation or qualifications, Bai Yu was definitely a qualified candidate. It was obvious that the Fifth Elder was on the former''s side. This was also the opinion of most of the elders. Moreover, Chen Fan''s background is unknown, and just by relying on a Ancient Token of Grand Master, he was able to climb up to the position of an elder. Putting all other prejudices aside, this brat''s aptitude is indeed top-notch, so we should take this opportunity to rope him in. He does not have any foundation within the Sect, at worst, we could just directly lift him up, and once the Ancient Token of Grand Master returns, everything will be fine. Sect Leader made his own suggestion. Since the matter was very important, he could not act on his own. Sigh, if I don''t agree to his request, then I will at least destroy the Ancient Token of Grand Master. If it is serious, then once it falls into the hands of another sect, that would be a huge disadvantage for my Qing Xuan Sect. The Great Elder''s words cut straight to the point. Even if he was willing to give Chen Fan a name, the latter would not have any substantial influence on the higher ups of the Qing Xuan Sect. On the other side, Chen Fan was leisurely enjoying the so-called clan elders'' courtesy provided by the Qing Xuan Sect. The entire cave dwelling was filled with spirit energy that seemed to be able to turn into droplets, and even the Spiritual Being s that were placed on the table looked extremely enticing. If it was the past, he would not even look at these things. Now that he needed to recover as much of his cultivation base as possible, he could only reluctantly swallow them into his stomach and then use a cultivation technique to refine them until they turned into strands of pure energy. This person ¡­ Senior, I wonder if the spirit spring water is still flowing normally? If there are any problems, I''ll get someone to fix them for you. The sound of an inquiry came from outside the cave. It had been a long time since this cave had been opened, and the disciple in charge was worried that there might be some mistake. I still have... The fairy tale of the trail was stopped before it could be finished. Now, stay away from here, and don''t disturb me without my permission. Chen Fan forcefully interrupted him, pretending to be unsatisfied and scolded the little daoist boy off. As expected, he recovered from his anger, but because of the latter''s cultivation, it did not increase him much, and was not as obvious as the few elders. No matter how small the mosquito was, it was still better than nothing. Whoosh! Feeling that his cultivation truly belonged to himself, Chen Fan let out a long breath. The group of old fellows must still be discussing, wanting to get hold of Qing Xuan Sect, with just my Foundation Building Stage, there is still a long way to go. There was a clear division of realms within the Cultivation Realm. From the very beginning when one refined qi, to when they successfully built their foundation, Core Condensating, to when they took the form of a golden pellet, this was the number of experts in the current Cultivation Realm. If he was lucky, he would be able to condense his Nascent Soul and after a period of cultivation, even after his Immortal Soul was successfully broken through, he would become a true Nascent Infant expert. He could already be called a giant. Moreover, there were a total of seven obstacles in front of the threshold of each realm. Any one of them could trap countless people. Not many among the tens of thousands of people would be able to pass them. With Chen Fan''s current level of combat power, he was roughly at the third form of the Foundation Establishment stage. There were still four small steps before he could break through. I don''t know where the Desolate Body will appear from, but I need to quickly rise up again. Only by doing this will I be able to help out, and I definitely can''t let those old fellows get it first. Chen Fan muttered to himself. Although what he said was all secret, he was not worried that the wall would have ears. If these words were to spread to the Great Clan Elder and the rest, it would not raise any suspicions, and would instead confirm the crazy nature of Chen Fan. And right now, the existence of the Desolate Body was probably long forgotten in the Cultivation Realm. The next day, after an intense discussion in the Qian Yuan Palace, the elders finally came to a conclusion and called Chen Fan over for questioning once more. Chen Fan, the old me and the Sect Leader thought about it again and again, and thought that since you are still young, if you recklessly acknowledge me as your elder, it would be hard for you to convince the masses. Furthermore, the words of the Ancient Token of Grand Master could not be admitted by the disciples outside. Seeing that Chen Fan was frowning, the Great Clan Elder quickly turned to look at him, and continued, But my Qing Xuan Sect can free up a place for you, being half a head lower than the old me, your status and treatment are no different. Little Fellow Taoist, is this okay? Sect Leader asked tentatively. This was also their bottom line, compared to the illusory Sect and luck, they couldn''t afford to get a young clan elder at such a special juncture. No matter what, he is still a well-known senior powerhouse in the Wasteland, but he still has to coax his children in the great hall." No matter what, he is still a well-known senior powerhouse in the Wasteland, but he still has to coax his children in the great hall. Well, just barely. Chen Fan did not insist too much, but asking for the elder''s position right from the start made the old guys a little difficult, so he decided to take a step back. C7 To be safe, I will use three months to observe all of you. At that time, I will consider whether or not the Ancient Token of Grand Master should return to its original position. Chen Fan was not stupid, he had silently approved of Ancient Token of Grand Master returning the Qing Xuan Sect, and if they were to counterattack, then that would be a wasted effort. Kid, don''t get ahead of yourself. We have already shown enough sincerity! The Fifth Elder couldn''t help but shout. What, I''ve already said that I will hand it over to you guys in three months, do you really need me to change hands and go to the Supreme Profound Sect? When Chen Fan said this, all the clan elders expression changed. Compared to the current Cultivation Realm, there was a huge gap. Being able to hold on to the status of being a transcendent power was already not bad, but if they were to grasp onto the origin of this Ancient Token, who knew how big of a commotion it would bring about. Little Fellow Taoist Chen Fan, you cannot mess with this kind of joke, otherwise, my Qing Xuan Sect would not be able to guarantee your safety. Sect Leader''s tone became a bit stiff. He knew how to be measured. It was definitely impossible to only endure and give Chen Fan such huge benefits in order to stabilize the Ancient Token of Grand Master. But if the latter did something crazy, Sect Leader could also guarantee that Chen Fan would not let him leave the mountain gate. There''s one more thing, please help me pass on this information to Senior Bai Yu, I will first deposit my elder''s position with him, and then I will personally snatch it back three months later. Since he had already achieved his initial goal, Chen Fan naturally had to be tactful and reveal a soft attitude at the right time. The few elders and Sect Leader s did not comment, they nodded their heads to indicate that they understood, and did not take it to heart. Although the fighting strength that Chen Fan displayed yesterday was astonishing, to be able to catch up to Bai Yu''s hundred years of hard work in such a short amount of time, was truly a pipe dream. If there''s nothing else, take me to the treasury and pick out two spiritual treasures. In the future, I will have something to protect myself with. Chen Fan was well aware of this logic, so he changed the topic and asked for it. You really are normal. The Fifth Elder said coldly, it was obvious that she had already expected this to happen, and after exchanging glances with the other elders, she landed on Chen Fan''s body and followed me. After leaving the Qian Yuan Palace, there were many turns and turns along the way. From time to time, some Qing Xuan Sect disciples would look over at them in bewilderment. The normally elusive elder had actually appeared today, and a young man was following behind him. Chen Fan did not have time to pay attention to those peculiar gazes, he only tried his best to recall some things. Although the overall pattern of his Qing Xuan Sect had changed a lot since the beginning, the location of the treasury had never been moved. If nothing unexpected happened, Chen Fan could thus obtain the second piece of capital to rise again. While he was thinking about it, the Fifth Elder had already brought him into the treasury. Originally, this kind of important place with Sect required a series of complicated reports, but the situation was special, and directly brought Chen Fan past the Guardian Spell Formation. Since you have the Sect Leader''s words of thanks, you should be able to choose a spirit treasure of your own as a reward, but of course, if you want to obtain more resources, you would need to contribute to the Sect. After he finished speaking, as if he was worried that Chen Fan would misunderstand something, the Fifth Elder purposely added another sentence. This is my Qing Xuan Sect''s tradition, it''s equivalent to an unshakeable sect''s law, and it''s not purposely targeting you. Ha, what is there to explain for such hypocritical words? We all know it well, you and I both know it. Chen Fan laughed, and started searching for something with a serious face. Hearing this, the fifth elder''s heart moved. He had already gotten used to this strange young man. He looked to be in his early twenties, but many of his actions were done very well. His arrogance was even mixed with a sense of calmness that even he could not see through. It''s your misunderstanding, this old man never had that intention. I am also very happy that there''s a new great reverend in Sect. The fifth elder''s expression was very calm as he used it to conceal the shock in his heart. The Fifth Clan Elder has already reached this point, and I have unintentionally earned the title of Qing Xuan Sect''s Guardian Elder. Actually, it''s not good to extort too much from them, Chen Fan continued to mutter to himself, his eyes constantly shifting. Even if the Qing Xuan Sect of the Great Wastelands had already declined, it was still a dying camel that was bigger than a horse after all. It had once been accumulated for more than a thousand years, and there was no lack of high-grade treasures in the treasury. However, Chen Fan was not moved at all. He turned a blind eye to all those so-called divine sword and treasured blade. As the only person in the entire Qing Xuan Sect who had talked to the founder, he actually already had a goal of his own. I want this item. No matter what, it can be called a Heavenly Treasure, so it won''t cause too much pain to your heart. We still have to work together in the future. After a long while, Chen Fan finally loosened up. After searching the entire treasury but didn''t find anything, his eyes finally landed on the shrine near the entrance. Hearing this, the Fifth Elder really wanted to explain to him that the position of offering was just for reputation, there was no need to handle any Sect matters at all. Besides, Sect Leader and them might allow it, but he quickly changed his expression again. Chen Fan then quickly walked to the side of the shrine, picked up the incense burner on the altar, poured out all of the dust inside and held it in his arms. Suddenly, the Fifth Elder seemed to see a normal young man. He wanted to keep silent and walk out with a cold expression, but he still asked, "What do you want this for?" He spent so much effort to go to the Qing Xuan Sect Treasury to choose one of the treasures, but the other treasures did not move one bit, and only picked up an incense burner from the shrine. This completely confirmed Chen Fan''s crazy impression of the Fifth Elder. It was impossible for any normal rational person to do such a thing. It''s just that no one would normally discover it. Today, I will become a genius who sees the pearl with his eyes, and in the future, when word of my Qing Xuan Sect spreads, there will be a reverend being able to call out a name. Chen Fan said in a narcissistic manner. In the ears of others, it sounded like it meant that, but he himself did not misunderstand it. He remembered that the disciple of the third brother, who had a weak body, had brought along a medicinal cauldron used to refine Spiritual Pill s with him. Although it was not very obvious to others, his seniors had helped him quite a bit, and if there were no surprises, it should have been placed inside the Qing Xuan Sect treasury. Whatever decision you make, don''t go back on your word in the future. The fifth elder waved his hand weakly. For the first time, he realized that he could not handle a single junior in the past hundreds of years. C8 Ai, I can only make do with it and reluctantly use it. If I have the chance in the future, I can just practice it a little more. Chen Fan sighed, he never would have thought that one day, he would have to rely on the most unskilled of all his disciples to save him. With his head full of fog, the Fifth Elder called the disciple to arrange a place for Chen Fan to stay. When he found out that the young disciple should have addressed the young master as Master, his mouth was so wide open that he could almost squeeze his fist in. Very quickly, Chen Fan was led to a remote place on the Spiritual Peak. This place also belonged to the core region of the Qing Xuan Sect, and it was located not too far away, about five kilometers away from the Qianyuan Peak. The entire Spiritual Peak was around three thousand meters wide, and in the determination of the Qing Xuan Sect, it would always be used by Chen Fan as a place exclusive to him for his cultivation. If he was allowed to, he would even have a few daoists accompanying him, which could be said to be quite a free place. Of course, compared to ordinary Protectors, it was much stronger. At least in this Spiritual Peak that belonged to Chen Fan, there was a ready-made courtyard which occupied around twelve to three acres. Alien Minister Chen, this courtyard will be your residence from now on. In addition, the entire Spiritual Peak and cultivation resources will be at your disposal. No matter how confused he was, he would not ask such a question at this time. In terms of appearance and aura, the two of them were actually around the same level as the young disciples. The only difference was that Chen Fan had already won the title of Guardian, and possessed the Spiritual Peak that countless disciples dreamed of. Of course, if one were to talk about one''s real age, it would have to be a completely different story. When Chen Fan thought about how he had wasted a thousand years in the state of self-sealing, for no reason at all, his heart ached. Tell me, what''s wrong here? Chen Fan asked indifferently. On the way, he had noticed that this disciple''s face was abnormal. Ah? After hearing that, the disciple was first stunned, then he quickly waved his hand, signalling to her. It''s nothing, it''s just that ever since he joined Qing Xuan Sect, this is his first time seeing a reverend as young as you. Oh. Chen Fan declined to comment. On the second day that he had just arrived, he did not expect to receive any real news from these disciples. After helping Chen Fan settle down, the disciple also left. His hurried footsteps looked very anxious, and he even verified the secret behind the courtyard. Relying on the fact that the Ancient Token of Grand Master had successfully garnered the attention of the higher ups of the Qing Xuan Sect and had temporarily found a place to stay, Chen Fan did not know that, in reality, the courtyard that the Sect Leader had allocated to him had once been through a great disaster. In short, this place had almost become a forbidden region for the Qing Xuan Sect. Ever since the last Protector had moved out, very few people would come here. Of course, those old fellows must have already explained things to them and wouldn''t let any rumors regarding ghosts spread through the Sect. Chen Fan sat down cross-legged and slowly entered into a state of cultivation. Of course, looking into his surroundings first was essential, he didn''t want to waste even a moment longer. Hehe, not bad, it seems that Bai Yu has scolded me quite a bit behind his back. After waiting for the power of his soul to enter his dantian, Chen Fan''s expression became even weirder than that disciple just now, and there was even a hint of excitement on his face. He could almost imagine how that old fellow would be furious. He had painstakingly prepared for dozens of years, yet, he was kicked by an outsider, causing Chen Fan and the few elders to be unable to reject him. In theory, as long as he could offend all of those old fellows at Qing Xuan Sect, his cultivation would definitely improve greatly when compared to before. Closing his eyes, Chen Fan enjoyed the feeling of getting what he wanted without working hard. Strands of pure energy surged in his body, and after going through the Heart Consuming Incantation, it turned into a rich Spiritual Energy. In the end, it turned into his own cultivation, there was no need to mention how great it felt. However, he soon found something strange. It seemed like the energy in his body was constantly flowing back and forth. It was not much different from when he had left the main hall. Could it be that the Heart Consuming Incantation could only be used in public? Chen Fan secretly thought, when he first obtained this technique, he did not have many reservations, maybe it was because he had stirred up too many troubles at that time, and people kept cursing at him from behind his back. It''s a pity, it seems that I have to act now. If I continue to waste energy like this, I won''t be able to do anything. Chen Fan tried to cultivate on his own, but he could not calm himself down no matter what. It was difficult to dispel the strange expression on the disciple''s face as he was even more certain that there was a problem with the Spiritual Peak. Only, he had just arrived at the Qing Xuan Sect, so it was impossible for him to hear the truth from other people. Chen Fan''s brows knitted tightly, and after a while, he gradually relaxed. With the Heart Consuming Incantation and the Ancient Token of Grand Master in hand, there was no need for him to worry so much. As long as enough storm was stirred up within this Sect to the point that a few old fellows would vomit blood from anger, the essence of several hundred years of cultivation would naturally be transferred into Chen Fan''s body. After coming to this conclusion, he calmed his mind and began to examine the Cauldron in front of him. If there were no surprises, then this Cauldron would be his greatest reliance for a very long time to come. Very quickly, the news of an additional Guardian appearing within the Sect spread. Although none of the higher ups publicly admitted it, their silent attitude signified their tacit agreement, instantly causing a huge uproar within the Qing Xuan Sect. What was going on? Why would Sect Leader and the rest make such a decision? Even if my Qing Xuan Sect has declined, it is still not enough to let an outsider casually interfere, and I have even become a position of offering that only the Senior Expert has the qualifications to, it truly makes people angry. Many of the young disciples were furious, they had thought that they were considered outstanding amongst the new generation, but compared to Chen Fan, they had an innate advantage. Now that the position of offering was in the hands of the latter, how could they not be angry? I have to duel with that brat. There should be a way to solve this between the young people and force him to hand over the Ancient Token of Grand Master! There were even some people who wanted to publicly challenge Chen Fan on the martial ring. Many people knew the embarrassing power of Ancient Token of Grand Master and naturally attributed Chen Fan to one of the kind of tyrannical people who forcefully threatened Sect Leader. This was indeed the case. C9 Everyone found Chen Fan very unpleasing to the eye, and wanted to use this kind of pressure on him through these words to make it so that he would not be able to eat or sleep in peace within the Sect. In the end, he would not even be able to move a single step, and he would be expelled from the Sect. Chen Fan turned a deaf ear to the discussions of the people outside, it was impossible for him to hear anything, at most, he could hear the undisguised ridicule outside the window, the occasional drop of rocks, and the wooden branches as thick as an adult''s arm ¡­ It''s just ¡­ From time to time, it would be treated as a semi-public occasion, and many disciples would take the chance to pass by. After knowing that this courtyard belonged to Chen Fan, they couldn''t wait to stand by the windows and see clearly. Very quickly three days had passed, and Chen Fan had never appeared within the Sect. In his plans, unless his cultivation had recovered to the Core Formation Stage, he would never rashly appear, and without sufficient strength to protect himself, he would be injured and lose a lot of face. Inside the Palace, a group of higher-ups were trying to figure out how to snatch the Ancient Token of Grand Master from Chen Fan, but the rules set by the Old Ancestor were too harsh, and after hearing about Chen Fan''s actions from the Fifth Elder, the Sect Leader and the other few elders were all confused. What? He only took the censer from the shrine? What was this brat trying to do? To the higher ups like the Qing Xuan Sect, these two days could be said to be extremely painful. The aloof and lofty elder was suppressed by a junior who could casually crush a jade pendant with a finger if he used a single finger. They had no choice but to refrain from attacking, and did not dare to do anything outrageous to Chen Fan, as they were worried that there would be irreparable effects on the luck of their Sect. After all, it can''t be that my Qing Xuan Sect is so bad that I can even rely on a madman to do whatever I want with my Ancient Token. He could also be considered an old man within the Qing Xuan Sect, and could only watch as his own sect began to decline. This kind of feeling was not pleasant at all. Even if he was a madman, he was still a rare madman with outstanding talent and courage. Sect Leader sighed, he wanted to check the information regarding Chen Fan but he couldn''t find anything, as though this brat had appeared out of thin air. To date, they only knew of the battle strength situation, and that was when they fought with Bai Yu in the Qian Yuan Peak that day. These few old fellows had witnessed the entire process, and no matter how much of a prejudice they had towards Chen Fan, they could not help but admit one fact, the latter''s cultivation was among the top of the entire Qing Xuan Sect. Originally, it was a happy occasion, the Ancient Token of Grand Master had successfully returned, and one of the seeded participants wanted to come in, but in the end, he had firmly confirmed the elder''s position. Now that it had become such an awkward situation, even Sect Leader felt that it was a bit difficult. On the martial arena, Spiritual Master Lan Yu had gathered many disciples and elders to publicly announce Chen Fan''s advancement. After all, this was a position of worship, and it was necessary to inform the entire sect, as well as the cultivators in the outside world, about just how crazy his Qing Xuan Sect had acted. No matter how one looked at it, Chen Fan did not have the qualifications to accept someone who was not even twenty years old as a Sect Guardian. It was only because of that Ancient Token of Grand Master, but in other words, Spiritual Master Lan Yu had purposely embarrassed Chen Fan in front of the entire sect. Today, my Qing Xuan Sect has once again risen to the level of a young reverend. I helped us find the Ancient Token of Grand Master that had disappeared for many years, thus, I have equal treatment with my clan and the elders ¡­ Spiritual Master Lan Yu pulled Chen Fan to his side, and introduced him to no less than a thousand disciples of the Protector. He had specifically emphasized the word ''treatment'' so that anyone with a discerning eye would be able to understand the meaning behind it. The Guardian Elder was already a head lower than the actual Patriarch, not to mention the fake Chen Fan, but before he could even finish speaking, he was interrupted. Third Elder, this disciple boldly asks, this person does not have any battle achievements within the Cultivation Realm, his cultivation is not even comparable to the seniors, why can he be called a reverend? Amongst the large group of heirs, a young man walked out and glared at Chen Fan unkindly. What, you have an objection? The Grand Elder grunted, then indicated for the former to withdraw, but he didn''t get a reply. Great Clan Elder, Sect Leader and you have only met once. For us direct disciples, even if the bowl of water is not even, it would at least be ranked according to our cultivation and battle prowess. After these words were said, many of the people around the young man revealed expressions of deep agreement. Everyone had been working hard in the Sect for a very long time, and until now, they were still just direct disciples, yet when Chen Fan first came here, he had only been to the Qianyuan Peak a few times. He was not even familiar with the range of the Sect. This is the personal decision of the elders and me, it is not up to you to be held accountable! I do not dare to question your decision, but I do not agree with this new reverend. There are many other brothers who are also confused. His name was Zhao Hong, and he held quite a bit of prestige amongst the Qing Xuan Sect young generation. Since his acting was so fake, he could have just said it out loud if he wanted to fight. There was no need for him to be so long-winded, useless. Chen Fan retorted back unrestrainedly. If he was really a rookie who had just joined the Sect, he would definitely have been scared by this show. But no matter what, he was still considered a veteran of a thousand years, how could he not see that this was all planned by the Third Elder? The disciple who asked this question was definitely one of the old fellow''s trusted aides, moreover, he had long been prepared to lend a hand at any time. From start to finish, those words had been intentionally provoked by Chen Fan, and it even brought resentment to the others. Great Elder, you heard it, this person does not even put our Qing Xuan Sect in his eyes, and is even unsatisfied about changing us to the position of Protector. Zhao Hong did not pay attention to Chen Fan, and completely ignored him. I will ask you one last time, either fight or get lost! A thousand years ago, Chen Fan and their founder was discussing the Dao, and he was even a genuine senior. When had he ever been treated like this by a little fellow? He added the surging Spiritual Energy to his voice and it rumbled as it exploded outwards like thunder in a clear sky, causing all the young disciples present to be deeply shocked. Sect Leader, in order to save face for our Sect, please prepare this disciple. Without waiting for Spiritual Master Lan Yu to speak, Zhao Hong had already received the hidden gaze of the Third Elder. This fellow''s cultivation was definitely not weak. After all, he was able to rank high within Qing Xuan Sect. As the strands of Talisman surged within his palm, it was naturally the true manifestation of a Spiritual Energy, and a pressure that was like the spreading of tidewaters. C10 Although it showed that there was no change in his expression, and was on the contrary a little frivolous, Chen Fan could already feel lines after lines of invisible fury appearing in this fellow''s body, which was then skillfully transmitted to this side by him using the Heart Consuming Incantation, and was unceasingly providing the origin of the Spiritual Energy. How dare you be so impudent in front of me? Chen Fan only responded with a palm print refined from a pure Spiritual Energy. The sharp aura inside constantly churned and expanded until it was around ten feet in size, fiercely clashing with the other Talisman. Boom! Both sides retreated backwards. What surprised many people was that Chen Fan actually stopped first, it was clear that Zhao Hong had suffered a defeat. used his full strength to not let his opponent off, he once again activated more palm prints, covering the sky and pressing down. This caused the Spiritual Energy to consume a lot of energy, but the impact was equally significant. In truth, ever since Chen Fan had recovered, his cultivation had improved by leaps and bounds. Especially the raging anger he had gotten from the hall, which allowed him to instantly reach the third stage of Qi Cultivating Stage. Furthermore, he had spent the last two days absorbing energy, so dealing with this fellow was not a problem. Dammit, what do you think you are? If not for getting the Ancient Token of Grand Master by luck, you are just a little brat! Zhao Hong shouted loudly, he could not tolerate the trash in his eyes trying to show off in front of him. His five fingers moved together slightly, causing even more Talisman s to move quickly, his hands suddenly shot out two scarlet light pillars, aimed at Chen Fan''s forehead, and even turned into a series of blurry whip images along the way, leaving behind a series of marks. This object''s speed was extremely fast, to the point where even a few elders were slightly moved. Spiritual Master Lan Yun was even preparing to save Chen Fan, and if he were to die like this, the Ancient Token of Grand Master would probably fly into the sky once more. It was impossible for him to return within a hundred years. But just as the two scarlet whip phantoms were about to make contact with his body, Chen Fan also moved his body, and with a swoosh, he flew more than three hundred meters away, and the afterimage in his original spot had not yet dissipated, as he was sent flying by the whip phantoms. The pleasure of revenge filled Chen Fan''s heart, and very quickly, he turned into a Spiritual Energy that spread throughout all the meridians in his body. Other than fear and anger, he finally acquired a third type of energy supplement. Before he could even raise the corner of his mouth to give a cold laugh, he saw the real Chen Fan just appeared above his head, and leapt high into the air. Her two long legs twisted down like flood dragons, and landed right next to his neck. If he was really entangled with Chen Fan, he would lose his fighting capability in a moment. Helpless, Zhao Hong who had not reacted to what was happening, pinched out a talisman from his sleeve, and with a slight pain in his heart, he instantly shot out like an arrow, using the same method to avoid Chen Fan, the latter''s legs directly stomped down, and a spiderweb of cracks appeared on the ground. Earlier, Chen Fan had already predicted that he would not be able to get promoted to the position of Protector peacefully, and furthermore, he needed to go through a battle to establish his authority. Otherwise, not only would he not be able to get the trust of the elders, the rejection by the rest of the disciples would be even more difficult. This brat was really cunning, he did not fight against Senior Brother Zhao Hong''s attack directly, instead, he ran into the air and launched a sneak attack. Relying on the protection of the Ancient Token of Grand Master, he actually duped the idea of doing whatever he wanted in my Qing Xuan Sect. Heh, only Senior Brother Zhao Hong has such a profound cultivation, to react so quickly, if it was me, I would definitely be tricked by this brat. The surrounding young disciples were definitely standing on the side of their own senior brother, and the way they discussed was also full of disdain and ridicule for Chen Fan. Moreover, they did not discover the method Chen Fan used to avoid the leg of the Flood Dragon, so they naturally took it as a clever response. No matter if they were scheming or scheming, as long as they could suppress the opponent in battle, they would be the victor. Who would care about the reason of the failure, and furthermore, the spirit rune that Zhao Hong had ripped apart did not escape their eyes. The veins on his forehead throbbed non-stop. In the end, he was still young, and in front of so many disciples from the same sect, even the facial features of his face were gradually distorting. Both of his hands tightly clenched into fists, the Spiritual Energy energy that filled his body was extremely shocking, the pure energy that flowed through his veins could not wait to materialize. Zhao Hong merged with all the spirit arts he had cultivated, and a mysterious dao sound resonated in the air nearby. Seeing that, Chen Fan''s pupils shrank, this fellow really had a sensitive nerve, the anger he received continued to rise, in the blink of an eye, it was already at the level of Protector Zhao''s snort. At his level, it would not be excessive to say that he was about to explode from anger. The more irritable the opponent was, the higher his assistance to Chen Fan would be, and it was exactly what he wished for. Seeing the latter''s happy expression, intentionally or unintentionally, it was not important. Zhao Hong''s eyes seemed to spew fire, burning Chen Fan''s heart ten thousand times to quell the hatred in his heart. Even when I was unable to block this attack, you still had the face to ask the Sect Leader for his position, don''t daydream anymore. Not only did the whip image carry a sharp aura, it also contained an even denser fiery red glow in the surrounding space. Even from far away, one could feel a warm wave surging towards them. "Whiz!" Once again activating his footwork technique, Chen Fan consecutively leapt several times, trying to shake off these two tongues of flame. However, Zhao Hong had locked onto his own Qi, as though he was a maggot on the bones, and was unable to get rid of it no matter what. Really? Since when is it your turn to judge my moves? Scram! Chen Fan revealed a cold smile. He had been suppressing them all this while, accumulating a large amount of pure Spiritual Energy and waving them towards the former. Rumble rumble rumble! A surging wave that could almost be seen with the naked eye suddenly formed, and rushed towards Zhao Hong who was facing him. The air along the way was once again split open, and a ravine flew out, directly surrounding Zhao Hong inside. As for the two flames of hope that he had placed on them, it wasn''t even worth a splash and they were directly submerged within this vast ocean. Even when they collided with Zhao Hong, the pitiful fellow was still in a daze. He never expected Chen Fan to suddenly erupt with power, and that too in such a large scale, with such a large amount of powerful Qi, without a protector level cultivation as a foundation, it was basically impossible for him to do anything. C11 On the far away stone platform, a few elders did not reply, and Lan Yu did not even speak out to stop Zhao Hong, showing his tacit agreement to Zhao Hong''s request. Grand Elder, who do you think will win? Blue Rain asked in a low voice. But since Chen Fan was able to fight to a draw with Bai Yu in the Great Hall that day, this old man thinks that maybe he would have an unexpected performance. The Great Elder had always been conservative. Even when he predicted that the situation would turn out like this, he still expressed his opinion in an obscure manner. Bai Yu had suppressed his cultivation, so the battle could not be counted. Chen Fan''s true capabilities, would depend on the battle today. Blue Rain waved his hand and glanced at the old man on the other side of the crowd. Looks like Sect Leader already had a plan. The Great Clan Elder nodded and replied with hidden meaning. If this brat could be used, he would be able to support her. In these two years, it was time for Qian De to teach her a lesson. Blue Rain didn''t hide anything and said. Zhao Hong had clearly been arranged by the Fifth Elder to test out his abilities. It seemed like he had been tempted. The Great Elder''s expression did not change, and he was extremely frank. Who let this brat hold the Ancient Token of Grand Master? I must pull him over and give it to the Fifth Elder for nothing, wouldn''t that be a waste? Blue Rain laughed, her eyes flashing. In reality, Chen Fan, who was in the middle of a fierce battle, would never have thought that after he left for a few thousand years, this Qing Xuan Sect which was created by the third disciple personally, had already sunk into a long period of internal strife. Today, the seven great elders of the Qing Xuan Sect were all the same generation of senior and junior brothers. From high to low, they were respectively known as true, hidden, open, sight, virtue, origin, and light. They were all around four or five hundred years old, and there were very few people who were able to affect their state of mind. Although they still looked kind on the surface, there were two hidden factions, with Sect Leader and Fifth Elder Qian De as representatives. They were divided into two different factions, and behind each of them was a portion of the Sect''s resources. When he was alive, he cared deeply about Blue Rain. After taking him in, he taught them a lot more than the other disciples, to the point where he was treated like his own son. Everyone knew this in Qing Xuan Sect. As a result, even though the Sect Leader hadn''t designated a successor before he passed away, with the tacit approval of the higher ups, Team Blue Rain should have been the successor to their master. However, Qian De actually jumped out, thinking that his own talent and fighting strength were all at the top, and was even a level higher than Lan Yu''s. A group of Follower gathered around him, planning to fight for the Sect Leader''s power. At that time, the situation was very straightforward. Qian De had extraordinary strength and was an outstanding expert in the entire Sect. Furthermore, his potential for growth far surpassed those of experts of the same generation. Blue Rain was the only candidate with a high chance of winning. They held the advantage in the field of innate techniques and fought in the dark for three months. After a complicated game, relying on the friendship left behind by the previous generation of Sect Leader, Blue Rain obtained the support of a few Grand Elders, and finally secured the position of the new Sect Leader. After Team Blue Rain successfully ascended, they naturally suppressed Qian De''s bloodline. The Qian Yin, Elder Qian Tong and the Ninth Elder who stood by his side today, as well as the one who died a young age, all took the opportunity to fill in the gap, serving as Team Blue Rain''s direct descendant. However, this Fifth Elder''s talent was indeed extraordinary. In the past hundred years, her cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds. She had almost reached the same level as the former. Although his previous Follower s had been reduced from the upper echelons, they had instead firmly occupied the core strength of the Sect. Amongst the thirty-six protectors, nearly twenty of them were all students from Qian De''s old stories. If not, with his previous actions of challenging Team Blue Rain, he would have been exiled a long time ago. Together with the fourth and sixth elder Qian Jing and the sixth elder Qian Yuan, if the three of them joined forces, they would also be able to faintly resist Blue Rain. In addition, the highly respected Qian Zhen, Seventh Elder Qian Ming and the Eighth Elder who had just passed away didn''t interfere with the battle between the two major factions of Sect. They adopted a neutral attitude and could be considered a third party that didn''t need to be helped. But in reality, they were more biased towards Blue Rain since he was the real Sect Leader. Maybe Chen Fan did not care about these fights, as it was nothing compared to ten thousand years ago, when the few great ancient clans fought with different methods, it was just a small matter, but he was fated to be involved. Since he had chosen Qing Xuan Sect as the stepping stone for him to rise again, the first thing he had to do was to straighten out the grudges between these old fellows. It seemed that the Sect Leader was interested in this little fellow as well. On the other side of the battle circle, Qian De and Qian Jing saw it too. Don''t worry, this kid is indeed quite valiant in the main hall. If we can defeat him again, we can use our olive branches. Qian De did not think that Chen Fan would win against him. In comparison, Zhao Hong, who he had personally groomed, felt more at ease. Heh, if this kid didn''t have too much appetite, we would have supported him a little. He actually came up to get an elder position, that''s wishful thinking. Now that he thought about it, Qian Jing was still a little angry. Don''t worry. This senior will definitely win this match. Blue Rain''s measure is too small. It might not even be able to accommodate a single junior. Qian De had a completely confident look on his face, just like how he had been insisting on taking the position of Sect Leader for so many years. The reason why both factions paid so much attention to Chen Fang, was because of the Ancient Token of Grand Master. He definitely had to hand it over. When it came to such a great matter as Sect and luck, whether it was Lan Yu or Qian De, both of them naturally couldn''t wait to take control of it in their own hands. could use the Ancient Token of Grand Master to call for a greater power. In short, both of them were extremely important to Qian De and Yue Yang. The surge of your spiritual energy from the Baihui acupoint should have been a crucial acupoint in the human body, but it is not solid. It must have relied a bit too heavily on external forces in the course of cultivation. Chen Fan could instinctively feel the condition of Zhao Hong''s cultivation, it was extremely weak, so he must have taken a lot of spirit medicines to increase his cultivation, he could not help but give out some pointers. Heh, an outsider actually gave me pointers for my cultivation. You really don''t know how much you are worth. Zhao Hong was startled, he immediately raised his voice, and bluntly refuted it back. It''s a pity, if only you could calm down a bit. With this body''s natural endowment, it would be possible for you to achieve greater things. Chen Fan sighed, he could not suppress his old habit of casually speaking the truth, seems like he had to pay more attention to this in the future. After all, he no longer had his usual peak strength. He was always like a god-like guy, and no one would believe him even if he told others about it. Pretending to be mysterious, acting crazy and clueless, you brat, you just owe me a beating. This was the first time Chen Fan had received an evaluation from an outsider since he had been reborn into this world. C12 Damn it, you must be lucky, don''t think that you can eat everything just because you have the Ancient Token of Grand Master. Today, no matter what, I will exhaust all of your luck. Zhao Hong''s voice chilled, and his entire body released a fiery mist. This was his last trump card. Today, he had lost someone in front of so many of his seniors and juniors, so he had to make up for it. Hehe, since you have this kind of heart, as your senior, I am willing to give a few pointers. Chen Fan had a smile on his face, it looked as if he was so angry that he would pay with his life. Eight thousand years ago, he was the one who even called out the founder''s name, so how could he allow an ordinary disciple to attack him today? If Old Third knew about this, he would probably be pulled out of the water. Ka-cha! * With a casual squeeze, the Lex Sabre that was transformed by the Spiritual Energy appeared in his palm, exuding a sharp aura that caused the surrounding space to tense up, and issued waves after waves of ear-piercing sounds. The surrounding disciples watched with excitement, their hearts rising to their throats. It seemed like their conversation was going to end soon, and the outcome would be decided soon. That''s enough for today. Lan Yu opened his mouth in time to stop the two''s life and death struggle. He waved his hand and forcefully pressed down on the scarlet red fog inside Zhao Hong''s body. Chen Fan''s Lex Sabre also disappeared without a trace. Since they were from the same sect, why must they be so stiff? If no one had any objections, Alien Minister Chen would cultivate in the Pingyang Peak. If anyone had any problems with cultivation, they could ask him. Fifth Elder stood out to smooth things over, but a trace of hostility flashed clearly in the depths of his eyes. Seeing that it was him who had spoken, Zhao Hong did not continue to be stubborn and left after a few cold snorts. In regards to this, Chen Fan was completely indifferent. In his ten thousand years of long memories, he had never seen any kind of heaven''s pride level person, and even the high and mighty Saints were discussing things with him. The small interlude ended just like that. Although the young generation of Qing Xuan Sect were still dissatisfied with Chen Fan, when they thought about the scene of Zhao Hong being suppressed and beaten up, the effect was still obvious. After all, a large majority of the disciples were still unable to do it. The older generation, on the other hand, had even more vicious eyes. Even though Lan Yu had stopped their final killing move, they were naturally able to see that Chen Fan was evidently calm and at ease, which formed a stark contrast with Zhao Hong''s exasperation. It was just that as a Sect Leader, Lan Yu did not want to cause the Fifth Elder to lose face, that was all. Only this pitiful and hateful fellow, who had been ordered by the Fifth Elder, was directly treated by Chen Fan as a stepping stone. He lost in an undefeated manner, and was extremely depressed in his heart. Now, as long as any discussion about the former would bring him along, he did not know whether to laugh or cry. Even he was not Chen Fan''s match, it seemed that this brat was indeed not someone to be trifled with ¡­ With regards to the discussions of the outside world, Chen Fan was naturally too lazy to pay attention to them. After finishing the battle, he returned to the Pingyang Peak. Although the location was a bit remote and his size was only a few kilometers, it was still enough for a quiet place. If I could have the ability to fly in the air, that kid would definitely lose in less than ten rounds. The advantage in the air is too important, I have to think of a way. Chen Fan said to himself. His battle with Zhao Hong had also given him some benefits, or perhaps he had awakened some things from before. Within his long and distant memories, he dug out a cultivation method called Sky Feather Seven Transformations with all his might. It was not an exaggeration to say that Chen Fan was just a ready-made humanoid encyclopedia. A large number of cultivation methods were stored in his mind, so he didn''t need to memorize them because they were all personally experienced by him. However, after a few thousand years of slumber, most of them had already been forgotten. Without a certain amount of primer, it was truly difficult to recall. There were different levels of cultivation techniques within Cultivation Realm. Using the Sky and Earth Profound Yellow as the standard, if he could cultivate to a higher level cultivation technique, it would definitely be beneficial to his cultivation realm. The Heavenly Feather Seven Transformations that was most suitable for Chen Fan was also in the middle ranks of the Earth Stage, which was considered a rare level in the current Cultivation Realm. It could be ranked in the top ten even in terms of Qing Xuan Sect, and only the Protectors and Elders could make contact with it. He sat cross-legged on the prayer mat, his mind calm. His mind was constantly meditating on the Dao patterns in his memories, trying to find that familiar feeling from back then. But now, he felt as if there was a map of the universe in front of him. It was filled with twinkling stars, and he could only cultivate after he had explored them one by one. However, his eyesight could only support seven or eight stars. Speaking of which, the Seven Heavenly Feather Transformations was really too mysterious. Earlier, he had been able to see it through to the end when he was at his peak. Now, after a short hour of studying it, he felt dizzy. Initially, when he obtained it, it was completely because he had taken a fancy to the power of the late stage of this technique. But never would he have thought that there would be a day when he would have to expend so much effort to even enter the sect. After waiting for more than half an hour, a portion of the illusionary star charts were broken. Chen Fan finally had a plan in his heart, it was not easy to cultivate, but to comprehend and cherish was not easy. Taking in a deep breath, he tried his best to enter a state of meditation, then activated his Spiritual Energy according to the method of the Heavenly Feather Seven Transformations. Very quickly, two palm-sized wings of light appeared on his back. Suppressing the joy in his heart, Chen Fan continued to use more Spiritual Energy s to increase his strength. Very quickly, he called them ''wings'', the kind that was used to fly in the air. In reality, these two wings were not a large blurry area. Looking carefully, they were clearly formed by Lingyu s one by one, as if they were scales on a snake''s skin, connecting together. Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! When he slowly flapped his wings, all of the Lingyu s began to move at the same time, bringing about a whistling sound that was extremely dense and a bit of might, as long as Chen Fan willed it, he would be able to use it as a weapon to kill his enemy. When one''s cultivation level increased, they could even turn all of them into fine iron. When that time came, they could all be shot out, creating an extremely powerful deterrent. After he finished his preparations, Chen Fan immediately flapped his wings, flapping it wildly in the wind, directly lifting him into the air. Looking at the rapidly shrinking courtyard and rooftop beneath him, Chen Fan concentrated even more seriously. He controlled his wings to fly in the direction he predicted, at ease and with extreme speed. Just the first attack was already able to reach near perfection. With two wings quickly flapping behind his back, it could almost reach a height of about two hundred feet. This was nothing to be happy about. If it was any ordinary cultivator who was flying through the air for the first time, they would definitely be so excited that they would not be able to control themselves. However, Chen Fan was an ''old driver'' with thousands of years of experience, and had only regained the feeling he had back then. C13 It was different from the mid-air jumps during battles. At most, it was only twenty to thirty feet high. The difference between it and the word ''flight'' was like heaven and earth. Without the invisible restraints from the ground, it was extremely comfortable. In the past, he used to teleport casually, and even if he was thousands of kilometers away, he could instantly teleport there. There was no need to waste so much effort in activating his cultivation technique, it further stimulated Chen Fan''s determination to quickly recover his cultivation. After circling around the area for half an hour, Chen Fan suddenly felt a sense of weakness in his body. Before he could even react, his body had already started to uncontrollably fall. Fortunately the wings of light hadn''t disappeared and had instead smashed into the ground in Chen Fan''s place. He had narrowly avoided a tribulation and avoided a head-on collision, if not, with his current physical condition, he would not have had much luck. If this peak-stage Dao warrior, who had traveled unhindered for thousands of years and was unrivaled in this world, had abruptly fallen to his death in the backyard, even Chen Fan would want to laugh at himself to death. Why would there suddenly be a shortage, and the lack of energy would last for at least a dozen breaths. Chen Fan sat down cross-legged and relaxed his mind. If not for the fact that he was the only one in the vicinity cultivating in seclusion, he would even suspect that someone was deliberately framing him. Even if he was a noob, he still had some confidence in his own cultivation. How could he have made the low level mistake of dissipating light wings while remaining in mid-air? After a moment of silence, Chen Fan looked at the pure Spiritual Energy flowing through each of the palm prints in his hands. Flying through the air not only required a strong Spiritual Energy as a base, but it also consumed a great amount of Spiritual Consciousness. Every breath of time, they had to make predictions in advance, not to mention control over the rapid movements of their wings. I have already recovered to the 4th level of Refinement Qi, so I can''t bring it up on the internet anymore. I need to get my body and Spiritual Consciousness together first, otherwise, it would be outrageous for me to become a cripple with a limp. Chen Fan said to himself. The so called Spiritual Energy s were not so simple either. With a tough enough body to be used as a reserve for Spiritual Energy and the powerful Spiritual Consciousness, at the same time, to ensure that the wings on his back could move freely, that way, he could truly fly in the sky and truly free himself from the restraints of gravity. If it were any other young disciple, they might not have this awareness. After all, in the initial stages of cultivation, the uses of Spiritual Consciousness were not particularly obvious, and it was very easy for them to be overlooked. However, the higher one''s level of existence was, the more emphasis one would place on the achievements of Spiritual Consciousness s, which was extremely important to one''s cultivation and foundation. Normally, when one increased their Zifu Space, they would be able to use it as a magic treasure at critical moments to attack or injure others. The decision in his heart had been made. The following period of time was mainly used to find a way to strengthen his body and Spiritual Consciousness. As for raising his cultivation realm, it was up to fate. In any case, if he wanted to, he could go to the Pindu Peak and find a few elders to scold him. On one side, Chen Fan was still thinking about how to practice the Seven Heavenly Feather Transformations, while in the Sect Leader Palace, two or three elders sneezed a few times. Third Elder, as the temperature has changed recently, you should pay more attention to your body. Lan Yu warned them. Logically speaking, an old fellow at their level shouldn''t get a cold or any other minor ailment just because of a mere external influence. Heh, I''m afraid that this old man was angered by that brat. The Sixth Elder snorted in anger and said. He had always been brooding over the matter of Chen Fan being promoted to a reverend master. He believed that Chen Fan had broken the rules of Sect, but did not have a better way. Chen Fan was just putting on a false front, as long as he did not do anything out of line, he would be free to go. The Great Clan Elder spoke up. Right now, there is an even more important matter. Hua Ding Sect has already sent someone to deliver the news, and is planning to continue the marriage alliance. What? They''re going to start the marriage again? There had to be demons when something abnormal happened. Although Hua Ding Sect had a high reputation, one could still guard against people. There must be a conspiracy, since our Hua Ding Sect has been rising up in the past few years, our Sect has been rising day by day. Qian Yin and the others all voiced their suspicions. With their Qing Xuan Sect gradually declining, they also admitted that they had to be careful with everything that was out of the ordinary. The marriage between the two sects had been cut off for nearly two hundred years, why was it suddenly mentioned again? Qian De and the others were also extremely concerned. Even though Qing Xuan Sect''s influence was greatly weakened, it was still a glorious history that spanned over a long period of time. It was second to none amongst these transcendent sects in terms of Cultivation Realm, and once the order was given, the entire Southern Domain would listen to it. At that time, the Hua Ding Sect was relatively weak, and in order to rope in the Qing Xuan Sect and form an alliance with them, they took the initiative to use their own Holy Maiden as an alliance to obtain greater benefits. And after that, following the change in Qing Xuan Sect, day after day, even though Hua Ding Sect did not directly tear off face, it was just for the sake of taking care of the former''s face. In the past two hundred years, not a single Holy Maiden could be seen. To put it tactfully, Yun Che needed the two great Sect s to send many young disciples to interact with each other. Not only would it increase the number of interactions between the two, it would also allow them to collaborate with each other in the Large Competition in the future. Hearing this, the few elders calmed down a little. It was just some pleasantries, even the astute old fellows could hear it, but it was still considered an olive branch thrown out by the Hua Ding Sect. If they had unyieldingly decided to get married, it would instead make Qing Xuan Sect feel like there was something fishy. Looking at it now, it seemed more like a sign of goodwill, which was at least very different from what they had guessed. Everyone should know that she was the Holy Maiden of this generation of Hua Ding Sect, and was the target of this marriage. It was said that this was personally set up by that old geezer, Sikong Kun, and he gave her three years of time to nurture her feelings. Lan Yu sighed, they were both part of the Sect Leader, but the gap between them was too big. With Sikong Kun''s tone, it was obvious that he did not place the two of them on the same level, so he had nothing to say. It turned out to be that ¡­ All the elders instantly revealed an understanding look. Why would those people from the Hua Ding Sect beat around the bush? They just wanted to arrange a home for the Holy Maiden, what would it be like if they could chase her back? He had long heard that Sikong Kun was very fond of his precious granddaughter. It seemed that he was helping Sikong Qingyue make a path for herself. Although it was said in front of Lan Yu, Qian Yuan and the others were not afraid at all. The fact that the Sect had declined was an indisputable fact. C14 Heh, I think in the entire Cultivation Realm, no one would be willing to accept our offer, we''re the only ones. The Qing Xuan Sect from before stood at the peak of the Southern Region and was known as the number one Sect. Within an area of five thousand kilometers, it was all within their core range. Looking at the current situation, seeing all the transcendent powers in the Southern Domain, ever since the incident back then, their Qing Xuan Sect had always been on the decline, and they were no longer on the same level anymore. And the reason why the few elders acted like this after hearing about the Holy Maiden was because the latter''s reputation was too high. It would not even be exaggerated if everyone said it in terms of Cultivation Realm, even if it wasn''t a positive image. Since birth, rumors had spread out from the Hua Ding Sect and covered the entire world in their desire to be cursed. If not, why would the dignified Sect Leader s of large sects have such ugly disciples? Sect Leader, if we agree, I''m afraid we will become the laughingstock of our Cultivation Realm, and others will think of us as the scapegoats. Qian De said. He was a conservative in Qing Xuan Sect, what''s more, this was a fact. That''s right, we are still one of the few transcendent powers in the Southern region. In the end, there is still a place for us in the top ten sects. Qian Ming was also not in favor of using such a method to curry favor with Hua Ding Sect. His words were straightforward and straightforward. Speaking of which, Nangong Xuan had lived in the Hua Ding Sect all year round, and had never heard of her going out before. It was rather exaggerated to say that even the midwife who helped Nangong Xuan deliver the baby left a shadow in her heart. In her hundred years of experience, she had never seen such a terrifying baby, so she immediately retreated into the mountain forest. There were even some that spoke with confidence. When Nangong Xuan was young, she had secretly gone out, but her face mask was blown away, causing a big yellow dog to run away in fright. Since then, she had never stepped out of her room again. But are the two Junior Brothers still unable to see our current situation clearly? If we keep thinking about the great things that happened in the past, I''m afraid there will be no future for our Qing Xuan Sect. Seeing that the other elders didn''t say anything and seemed to have the same attitude, Qian Yin couldn''t help but speak up. Even though it wasn''t to the point where one would rather live than kneel and die, once this precedent was set, there would be endless trouble in the future. Although Nangong Yi''s words were nice, who knew if he was using the name of marriage to intentionally infiltrate in. These people in the great hall were all lofty elders, and when they walked out, they were even more so supreme experts whose names shook the entire Grand Xia. They all had their own pride and arrogance. Although Hua Ding Sect''s actions looked like a good thing on the surface, they couldn''t help but think about it carefully, and this made them feel even more humiliated. Currently, the number one Sect in the Southern region has already been occupied by the Yuan Sect for several hundred years, and seeing the thousand year old Gongyin''s Hua Ding Sect as his biggest opponent, Nangong Yi definitely has a lot of pressure, so he wouldn''t spare any energy to break up our Qing Xuan Sect. Qian Ming had always been calm and steady, as he analyzed this matter calmly, and gradually changed his attitude. Is your consciousness saying that Hua Ding Sect''s olive branch truly wants to befriend us and fight against our Yuan Sect together? Qian Yuan was also a rational person, and in the end, his Qing Xuan Sect was still too weak. If a good fortune was brought to him, but he didn''t even have the courage to extend his hand to receive it, then it would be underestimating. Wu, it might not be possible that their intention is to share the heavy burden, but Yuan Sect''s power is always so overbearing, if by chance, we are set on fire due to the marriage ¡­ Qian De did not speak further, the consequences were obvious. In a battle between two tigers, there would definitely be an injury, but it would definitely start from the weak side. That''s right, we have to be careful, Hua Ding Sect is like handing over a double-edged sword, whether we can make good use of it is unknown. Qian Jing agreed. They had truly offended Yuan Sect to death. They did not dare to use their Hua Ding Sect for a short period of time because they did not have that much appetite. The reason why Nangong Yi did not say it with confidence showed that he was also hesitating. We can make use of these three years to visit famous doctors everywhere, and might be able to cure Nangong Xuan''s strange illness. His plausible suggestion was completely ignored. Even he felt that it wasn''t too reliable when he said it out loud. In order to restore Nangong Xuan''s face to that of a normal person''s, Nangong Yi used up a lot of energy and activated all of his Hua Ding Sect in the Southern Domain. He even invited many experts from the Southern Domain to consult with him, but to no avail. They had not succeeded for twenty years, and relying solely on their Qing Xuan Sect, the chances of success were extremely low. The few elders had their own opinions in the hall as they argued endlessly. Everyone believed that what they said was reasonable, and in general, it was nothing more than two different voices. Fortunately, the surroundings of Pindu Peak had long been cleared out. Otherwise, if those disciples saw their own Elders, they would have no idea how surprised they would be. As an elder, his first duty was to stand from the angle of Sect, and think of all the benefits he could get. As an elder, his first responsibility was to stand from the angle of Sect, and think of all the benefits he could get. Before that, put aside your faces. If your Qing Xuan Sect were to continue to decline, I''m afraid that the mountain gate will completely close before the day you all pass away in meditation. The few old fellows looked at each other, none of them dared to say anything. If the Great Elder got angry, it meant that the situation had reached a very serious point. However, their words were not wrong, and these people subconsciously thought that with this old face of theirs, they actually did not take into account the advantages and disadvantages of the Sect. Nangong Yi has almost treated his granddaughter as her lifeblood, so we must also pay more attention to this marriage. If we can really take this opportunity to ally with Hua Ding Sect, it will be of great help to my Qing Xuan Sect. Lan Yu made a decision and didn''t say a word the entire time, as he waited for the Great Clan Elder''s support. From the perspective of the Sect Leader, he would only think of this marriage as a chance to do everything he could to make it possible and would not have any choice to avoid it. After all, Holy Maiden had married here. No matter what the reason was, Nangong Yi would indirectly give his family a large amount of help, and he wouldn''t be able to make his darling granddaughter suffer. As long as the relationship between the two sects was sufficiently stable, even someone as strong as the Yuan Sect would not dare to act rashly. C15 They had already swallowed a lot of Sect, if they were to go overboard again, they would definitely provoke a crackdown, and before increasing any further, Lan Yu judged that the Yuan Sect would not cause a war again. Even if Qing Xuan Sect fell into such a predicament, it did not have much to do with him, but he was still the leader of the ship, and Lan Yu himself did not want to set sail once again. He was waiting for this chance, to borrow the strength of Hua Ding Sect and assist it. No matter how weak he was, he could at least catch his breath, and not walk to the step which the Great Clan Elder had predicted. Outside Pindu Peak, in a small courtyard about ten miles away, Chen Fan was trying to fly in the sky. He had ten thousand years of memories as a base, and the time to familiarize himself with a new technique was faster than ordinary people. What was that kid doing? The distant Chen Fan discovered a familiar figure. Zhao Hong came to his Spiritual Peak, and occasionally looked around, sneaking around. He was somewhat curious and immediately hid in the clouds. He did not get discovered and turned to observe Zhao Hong''s actions. Immediately after, under Chen Fan''s watchful eyes, Zhao Hong walked quickly to the Spirit Spring Water area, from his sleeves he sprinkled a lot of powder, his movements were extremely smooth, and with a flash, he disappeared. Seeing that, Chen Fang followed with a still expression, buthe was in no hurry to bicker with Zhao Hong, she extended his hand out to retrieve the powder, luckily the spirit spring water was not rushing, and most of it was still inside. Wu, Zhao Hong is still too young, if you want to use the medicine, you have to at least stir things up. Chen Fan wasn''t proficient in medicinal stones, the former had given him an invisible reminder, so he had to pay more attention to eating and living in the future. Floating the powder in the air, he casually grabbed a small beast and poured some into his mouth. He wanted to see what the result would be. Maybe it was a potent poison. Then, Chen Fan didn''t know what to say. The small beast that was only a foot in length, after swallowing a part of the powder, actually hugged the Ancient Tree beside it. It acted shamelessly, and even its breathing became heavier. This brat is really unkind to actually give me this kind of medicine. Medicine! Even with Chen Fan''s mental state, he was stunned, luckily he accidentally discovered it, if not he would accidentally eat it, and not have any face left. If Lan Yu and the others were to see him lose his composure after being poisoned, the more Chen Fan thought about it, the more afraid he would be. He didn''t know how many times he had scolded Zhao Hong secretly. Very quickly, he thought of an insidious method of retaliation. He turned around and returned to his room. After an hour had passed, flames appeared and he walked out with a handful of powder. These were all personally refined by him, the effects were about the same, but the power was much more violent than Zhao Hong''s. Just as he raised his head, he caught a glimpse of the small beast slowly awakening. However, Chen Fan could not casually test it out, with the dose, it was possible that it would immediately die from excitement. Even though he had only been in the Qing Xuan Sect for a short while, Chu Tian was still able to make a judgment based on the direction of the Spiritual Energy. With such a large Sect, the spirit spring in every mountain had originated from one place. "Whiz!" He poured the prepared medicinal powder directly into the flowing spirit spring. He didn''t forget to add an external force to push it over, so that he could safely return to the main vein. Afterwards, he rushed in all directions to gather all the Spiritual Peak s. Who told you to be so insidious, young people still have to suffer a bit more. If Zhao Hong had poured a lethal poison into it, he would definitely not hesitate to put it on the killing list. However, this kind of medicine that could differentiate the four seasons instead gave birth to a strange feeling of interest. In any case, it wouldn''t result in a big mistake. At most, he would just help those old guys who had nothing to do, adding a bit of fun to the boring life of cultivation. The general direction of the Hua Ding Sect was closer, but he could not rashly pull it too close, and needed a certain amount of buffer. Lan Yu continued. The Hua Ding Sect is definitely Nangong Xuan''s without a doubt, who should we send as the object of the marriage? The third elder''s question also gave the other old fellows a headache. Since he was going to get married with Hua Ding Sect, then he definitely could not casually pull someone out from the crowd. He had to carefully choose what he wanted, and he could not lower the level of his Qing Xuan Sect or weaken the prestige of his own family, nor could he let Nangong Yi feel that he was being looked down upon. It was a pity that the Qing Xuan Sect did not contain the words of a Holy Son. Other sects had once rushed over to find them for marriage, but who would have thought that such a scene would appear today? Needless to say, this old man''s recent disciple is pretty good, reaching Qi Disciple level 6 at such a young age, so he can be a good candidate. After a moment of silence, Qian De broke the awkward atmosphere and took the initiative to mention this. No, no, no, since it''s a marriage alliance with the Holy Maiden, this old man can go and persuade Bai Kai. If it really comes to that, all of his cultivation will be provided by my Spiritual Peak for the next few years. It was obviously a good thing, but when it came to Gan Jing, it was like he had paid a huge price. The latter was indeed one of the top younger generation in Qing Xuan Sect, but his temper was somewhat stubborn, and he was famous for being stubborn. Don''t make things too difficult for me, Bai Kai is too old. If this old man remembers correctly, that girl from Hua Ding Sect is only twenty years old. I have an untalented junior who is similar in age. There was a glint of light in Qian Ming''s eyes that opened and closed, and his last junior brother would also come to fight for it. Immediately after, the hall fell into a heated discussion once more. These old fellows who had lived for hundreds of years were not trifling matters. They all had their own plans, and were pushing out the younger generations that they valued more. The reason why their faces and necks were red was because Nangong Yi could not pass this test. Otherwise, Qian Jing and the others would have wished that they could go up to battle personally. If his own clan''s disciple were to marry Nangong Xuan, it would be equivalent to being linked with Nangong Yi. Moreover, it was a one-way relationship, so his position in the Qing Xuan Sect would definitely rise accordingly. has long said so already. For these three years, not only can we cultivate our feelings, we can also see the potential of our Qing Xuan Sect disciples. At that time, we can decide whether or not we want to get married. Lan Yu''s face was tight and had a kind of deep helplessness. He was determined to get a golden turtle as a husband. Hearing Lan Yu''s explanation, the few elders all secretly cursed in their hearts, and then fell silent again. It was obvious that Nangong Yi was not stupid, the reason he proposed the conditions for the marriage was not because he simply wanted to find someone to hand over his granddaughter, and that person had to first get his approval. However, the problem was, who would be willing to marry such an ugly girl who would give a dog a fright? It was truly shameful. If one were to become a top-notch expert in the future, one would look down on everyone, have shocking battle prowess, and be treated as a guest of honor no matter where one goes. They would receive extremely high treatment and bring this person along with them ¡­ Even if he had the Holy Maiden''s reputation, he might not be able to make the young talents bow, if not, how would Nangong Yi be worried about this matter, and find the Qing Xuan Sect to accept it. He actually wanted to look for other powers, and the possibility of them closing up was extremely high. Fellow junior brothers, let me be honest with you. Currently, within the Qing Xuan Sect, there are no more than a handful of genius disciples that can do so. If one were to use their Yuan Sect against those small perverts, they could even start a fierce battle with the strong protectors. There was not a single Young Outstanding like them. All these years, there had been a lot of young people fighting to enter the sect to cultivate. However, almost all of them had been wiped out by other transcendent powers. It was a bit too much to say that they didn''t have many talents. It was simply impossible to even consider Qing Xuan Sect, and this was undoubtedly fatal for a set of Sect. Without the injection of new blood, it wouldn''t take long for the situation to turn green and yellow, and he would gradually walk towards death''s door. In fact, Qing Xuan Sect was just going through this process. Fortunately, there was the glory of the first Sect which he had attained earlier, hence relying on his old self to consume energy for a few days. It would be better if Chen Fan went and test the waters first, since it would give Nangong Yi a way out of this predicament. After a short moment of silence, Qian Yin made a suggestion. Hearing this, the other elders were all stunned, and they subconsciously wanted to retort. This kind of matter that involved the Sect of both sides, how could it allow an outsider to interfere? But very quickly, the old people started to think carefully. Since there was no way to change Chen Fan becoming a Guardian, why not make use of him? No matter what, he was still a young man. Speaking about status, perhaps the entire Cultivation Realm would not be as sincere as they were ¡ª a reverend who was on equal footing as the elder had personally stepped forward. With such a good deed, how could he still probe Nangong Yi''s standards? He doesn''t need the elites of my Qing Xuan Sect to take the risk, and he has a Ancient Token of Grand Master in his hands, which can be considered the highest standard for outsiders. Lan Yu also agreed. Just as he was worrying about who should go and wade in the muddy water, and who should go and fill the numbers with Chen Fan, his identity would be of great help to the marriage alliance. The failure was secondary, as a response to Nangong Yi, he had to send him a kind signal, otherwise, it would be terrible if the other forces were to beat him to it. But the strength of that brat ¡­ Qian Jing was a little hesitant, he didn''t see the battle on the day of the promotion ceremony and remembered that Chen Fan was still a little rascal. To be able to easily defeat Zhao Hong, he isn''t any weaker than Bai Kai and the others. The Great Clan Elder looked deeply at Qian De. Behind that incident that day, there was definitely a connection to him. Needless to say, he could guess, but due to the difference in Hua Ding Sect, the happiness of his own granddaughter, Nangong Yi would definitely set up all sorts of tests. When the time came, Chen Fan would face all the disgraces, and he would have nothing to do with the disciples of the elders. In the afternoon, a major event related to the future of Qing Xuan Sect was preliminarily decided. Drinking tea, meditating, and feeling very satisfied. C16 Lan Yu waved his hand, and the door opened, and immediately a daoist child prepared to pour tea. A dense mist quickly rose from the hall, and a unique fragrance lingered in the air. Several old fellows were sitting on prayer mats. In front of them were a small wooden table, a complete set of ancient tea set, rare fragrant tea set, and the same pure white hair. It looked quite ceremonious. It really is the Sect Leader''s Spring Tea that has its own unique characteristics. Every now and then, Qian Jing would think of asking for a cup of tea, but Lan Yu rarely brought it out to entertain her. Today, she was only lucky enough to taste two or three mouthfuls because of her marriage plan with Hua Ding Sect. "A look of reminiscence appeared on the Great Elder''s face. Three hundred years ago, he too had the nickname of Xiao Jiu Shen. Hm? Lan Yu enjoyed this rare moment of relaxation. This type of spring tea was his own doing, and he was the only one with Qing Xuan Sect. He picked it up immediately, and started frowning. Hearing him say that, the few clan elders also felt that something was amiss, with their cultivation, how could Zhao Hong''s'' foreign body ''be hidden from them? I need an explanation. When he felt the heat in his body, Lan Yu''s face immediately turned green, he could not drink any more of the tea, it was a waste of the good spring tea. On that day, the disciples who passed by the Pindu Peak heard bursts of furious roars. The roars that came from the palace at the very top spread for dozens of miles and it was not light. Other similar scenes were playing out in many different parts of the Qing Xuan Sect. The Protectors with higher cultivations were still better off, but the young cultivators were raised, and for no reason at all, they started howling and blushing in the house. Fortunately, the strength that Chen Fan controlled was just right, even if it was an outer sect disciple with a lower cultivation level, it would not cause any loss of life after ingesting it. After that, as expected, he gathered the power of the entire Sect to investigate, and quickly uncovered the real culprit. Initially, they thought that it was because of Chen Fan, but who would have known that they would actually discover his presence? Since the former had decided to play it by ear, how could they not leave some clues behind? When Zhao Hong was brought to the front of the few elders, he was completely dumbstruck, who would have thought that the medicine would actually spread to the entire sect, and that he would be unable to escape from a heavy punishment. After turning the sky, when Chen Fan was told to represent his Qing Xuan Sect in advance, he subconsciously thought that this was definitely not a good thing. Even though he didn''t have much understanding about Hua Ding Sect, based on any matters which were closely related to benefits, it was impossible for him to judge things on his own principles, and thus, it was very easy to come to a conclusion. Is there any contradiction between Hua Ding Sect? Chen Fan asked. In the past few days, there was only one disciple assigned to his Spiritual Peak, named Peng Lu, and he was probably not someone that was favored by the top, if not he would not have ended up in ''exile''. It was because he had risen up one step at a time from being an ordinary person and now, he had returned to his original point once again. With all kinds of feelings mixed in with one another, Chen Fan always had a good impression towards this kind of person who had experienced the same thing. Hua Ding Sect was known for their reputation, and their reputation in the Southern region was not bad. They rarely bullied people. Peng Lu hesitated for a bit, but when he thought about how Chen Fan would immediately know the origins of the entire marriage, he decided to reveal it all. His tone of voice held even more sympathy for the latter. However, their Holy Maiden s were naturally seen as an ominous sign. It was said that even dogs would not dare to approach their ugly faces, and this time, they were going to send someone to marry that monster. Even dogs dare not approach? Chen Fan was also amused, this kind of description was too weird, he had met many proud daughters of heaven, and all of them had their own charm, but he had never seen a ''Holy Maiden'' like this. That''s right, that''s right. Even the disciples of the Hua Ding Sect were not willing to bring up this Holy Maiden. Hehe, then I should go take a look. Hearing that, Chen Fan became interested. This really isn''t a good job, Alien Minister Chen, you have to be mentally prepared, maybe the elders want you to be the scapegoat. Seeing the former being excited, Peng Lu carefully reminded her. This was what was said, being able to climb onto the Holy Maiden was a dream of many. Although he said that, Chen Fan was incomparably indifferent in his heart. The daughter of a true saint had all been in his arms before, so what could a mere Hua Ding Sect do to him? No matter how magical it was, it was useless against him, and it was only because of ugly rumors that moved his heart. Ah, Alien Minister Chen, you will definitely regret it. Peng Lu sighed, he thought that Chen Fan jumped into the fire pit and did not know that he had jumped into it. Lead the way, the Sect Leader will be angry when we''re late. It wasn''t that he wasn''t clear about the direction of Pindu Peak, but rather, he was intentionally trying to help Peng Lu out. Little Fellow Taoist Chen Fan should already know why he called you here today, right? Lan Yu was the first to speak. My brain is a little slow, I hope Sect Leader can enlighten me. Chen Fan said loudly so as to hear what the old fellow had to say. It just so happens that you have just joined my Qing Xuan Sect, so you can use this opportunity to go and train yourself. This old man has decided to ask you to marry him. The Great Clan Elder continued with the conversation, not making Lan Yu feel too awkward. I don''t have any experience. If I screw up, I''ll do it. Chen Fa spread his hands and said somewhat helplessly. "No matter, I won''t let you go alone. Just let that disciple outside follow by your side." The Great Elder seemed to have already expected this. He pointed to the door and said, "The two of you will be led by Protector Zhao Ming. At that time, he will tell you everything that you need to pay attention to." No, I mean, I mean, Chen Fan pointed at himself, then suddenly realized that playing with these few old fellows, was also a bit of a pleasure for him. I''m still too young, and I''m afraid there''s a huge gap between my strength and that of the Sect Lord. If you want to go, you will be disgraced in place of us. Do you really expect me to expect you to create such a miracle?! The expressions of the few elders slightly changed, and they almost blurted out the words in their hearts. If you go to Hua Ding Sect early, then one person will represent my entire Qing Xuan Sect. How great of an honor is this, and even more so, it''s your acknowledgement of your status as a Guardian. Qian Jing was a bit annoyed. I don''t know about Hua Ding Sect but with my thousand years of Qian Yin''s strength, even if the Holy Maiden is born with a strange constitution, if we were to marry over, we would already have a high enough level of support. Chen Fan held his hands behind his back, and slowly paced back and forth in the palace, observing the changes in the expressions of these elders. If I were a Hua Ding Sect disciple, I would definitely reject Qing Xuan Sect greatly, and propose marriage so that it would be no different from stabbing their scars. Maybe even clan elders and experts would come for me, so Nangong Yi didn''t need to say anything more. Therefore, this trip to Hua Ding Sect isn''t a nine out of ten chance of death, but there is definitely a great risk involved. For my current cultivation, this is also a great challenge. After hearing the name of the ugliest Holy Maiden from Peng Lu''s mouth, Chen Fan had roughly guessed it, but he did not plan to reject it. On the contrary, he wanted to use this opportunity to raise his influence in Qing Xuan Sect. The method was very simple. He had complete confidence in this marriage as an old monster who had been in contact with the world for tens of thousands of years. This... In just a few sentences, Chen Fan truthfully explained the situation of the two sects, and in a disguised manner, broke the last layer of window paper. Surprised by Chen Fan''s extraordinary logic, their minds were clear enough to want to sweat. But unfortunately, they were not their own disciples, so in the end, they were just outsiders. Are you going or not? The Great Elder said coldly. His old face was obviously covered in frost. This old man will remind you that this is the common decision of the few of us, and no one in the Qing Xuan Sect can go against it. Alright, then I''ll have to request that the elders agree to a condition, which can be considered as a fee to let me take the risk of running errands. Chen Fan laughed and said, raising his hand gently, like a greedy merchant. How laughable, since you are a Guardian of Qing Xuan Sect and are of use for the sake of Sect, then you should be righteous. The Fifth Clan Elder had always disliked Chen Fan, so the Sixth Clan Elder snorted coldly. The air in the hall seemed to have frozen, making it difficult for him to breathe. If it were the other disciples facing the pressure of the elders or the surging rage of the elders, they would have probably knelt down and kowtowed for a long time. But to use such a method against Chen Fan, it was just too child''s play. The saints still called him brother, so what did these few hundred years old elders count for? Tch, Chen Fan laughed disapprovingly. You two don''t even have confidence in this marriage, if I can guarantee that Hua Ding Sect will definitely agree, then it will definitely be a great contribution to Qing Xuan Sect. Yes. Unexpectedly, Lan Yu nodded. But the condition is that you have to get Nangong Yi to agree to marrying Holy Maiden into my Qing Xuan Sect. Come to think of it, even Lan Yu himself didn''t know why, but he actually looked forward to Chen Fan truly creating a miracle. It was probably because the Ancient Token of Grand Master approved of the latter. As long as you confirm the news of the marriage, you can choose any of the artifact Spiritual Being in the treasury. The Grand Elder added. It seemed like even the wiser one might be, the older one would never reject Chen Fan''s request, but it was equivalent to strangling his path of retreat. C17 There is nothing good in the treasury, a pile of tattered little things, and I do not know what you have been waiting for all day. Chen Fan shook his head, a large amount of anger had obviously entered his body once again. Unknowingly, the veins on the foreheads of these old fellows were no longer concealed. I only have one condition, after I succeed, give me a piece of my ancestors'' remains ¡­ This was impossible! Before Chen Fan could finish speaking, he was stopped by the third clan elder''s angry roar. How can I let you just take my Qing Xuan Sect s, and not wishful thinking about it. Chen Fan, do you know what you are saying? Even if you have the Ancient Token in your hand, it is not an excuse for you to spout nonsense. The Fourth Elder and the Sixth Elder reprimanded him one after the other. To these old fellows, the remains of their Martial Ancestor were more important than their lifeblood. They must not be damaged, and it was best to seal them forever. They each represented the attitude of two factions, and there was no room for negotiation. The remains and the marriage were more important than anything else. Why do you know of the Ancestral Master''s remains? Lan Yu calmed down a little and asked. In fact, even a core disciple like Zhao Hong had no way of knowing about the remains of the ancestor. Before he passed away in meditation, the founder once said that he would disintegrate his body, leaving it for later use in the event of a Sect catastrophe. It had been almost ten thousand years since then, and Qing Xuan Sect had indeed encountered many dangers that were enough to be destroyed. At critical moments, he took out the remains and ignited his combat strength as an Ancestral Master, allowing him to quickly avoid danger. Over time, the remains became one of the essence of the Qing Xuan Sect, but after being activated multiple times, there were not many left. At most, there would be three more chances to protect Sect, and with the decline of Qing Xuan Sect, unless it was absolutely necessary, it would be impossible for the ancestral master''s remains to reappear under the light of day. I happened to see it in an ancient book, and it just so happened that my next step of cultivation was to improve my physical body. Chen Fan casually found an excuse. Perhaps in the eyes of several elders, such a request was too excessive. It could even be considered treason and treason. How could a junior disciple possibly want to take down the corpse of their own ancestor? But Chen Fan was very clear on his needs, even though Xiao San''s cultivation back then was not good, he had at least received a part of his legacy, and would definitely leave behind some Qi in his body. This was the key step in Chen Fan''s recovery of his strength. He wanted to find his former divine arts, and only by relying on this shortcut. Otherwise, just relying on the Heavenly Heart Formula to grind them down would take at least three to five years. Sigh, little fellow, it would be such a great sight if you came here a hundred years later in the morning. The Great Clan Elder wanted to say something, but stopped in his tracks. He looked fixedly at Chen Fan, his gaze somewhat scorching. You are a smart person, since you can see through the marriage between us and the Hua Ding Sect so clearly, it wouldn''t be hard for you to realize that the decline of the Qing Xuan Sect is already unstoppable. This was the first time Lan Yu admitted it to Chen Fan, and this also meant that he was pessimistic. He did not think highly of the future of this huge ship that he was on. As the ultimate trump card, the Ancestral Ancestor''s corpse is the only method my Qing Xuan Sect uses to intimidate the other enemies. Not a single mistake can be made, so you should change the condition. As a Sect Leader, speaking to a junior with such sincerity, Lan Yu had already done it to the extreme. When it fell into Chen Fan''s eyes, all that was left was a sigh. Flowers have no equal, and once upon a time, he looked down on all of the Qing Xuan Sect in the entire Southern Region. Even large clans with great Zhongzhou would have to fear him during his peak period, but now, he became like this after a thousand years. Relying on the remnants left behind by the ancestors as a trump card to survive, pitiful and lamentable. After leaving Pindu Feng, Chu Tian did not rush to cultivate. In Zhao Hong''s prank earlier, he had already collected enough anger, and the Heavenly Heart Formula was already ready to move. Puff! A scarlet light shot out from his palm and circled around one of the censers. There were even more similar beams of light that continuously shone on the censer. As the temperature of the air in the room increased, the incense burner''s surface began to have dense lines and lines covering it evenly, as if it were enveloped by a large net. In reality, this should be the true state of the censer. However, it was usually covered by the smoke and fire energy. Ordinary offerings and high temperatures naturally wouldn''t have any effect, but the elders never thought that apart from a few portraits, this censer was the only one with the longest history in the entire ancestral hall. As long as someone was able to release a beam of light and then notice the incense burner''s existence, their Qing Xuan Sect should not have fallen to where it was today. After being stimulated by Chen Fan''s flame, the patterns on the outside of the censer were reactivated and similarly released waves of light, revealing the oppressing purple luster of your noble aura. Sigh, Xiao San had initially planned to leave the Dao Burning Furnace that he painstakingly refined to his descendants as a legacy treasure. Chen Fan sighed, in his initial plan, he was indeed going to rely on his Qing Xuan Sect to rise to prominence. He had already thought of a way to capture the Dao Burning Furnace, but he couldn''t make it in time. The Dao Burning Furnace s were easily caught, and their Sect had turned into this state. Chen Fa could only choose to start again, and climb up the mountain step by step. In the past, even his third disciple, Cao Rui, had such spirit, claiming that he would need to borrow the power of this furnace to incinerate three thousand great daos. Forget about whether the latter would succeed, at the very least, the Dao Burning Furnace had left a glorious reputation throughout the history of Human Clan cultivation. Shaking his head, Chen Fan controlled his anger. Through the transformation of the Heavenly Heart Formula, the surging Spiritual Energy all spouted out from his palm, and they were all channeled into the Dao Burning Furnace. If not, if he wanted to reach this level of temperature, he would have to spend a lot of energy. This was all thanks to Zhao Hong''s genius idea, which gave Chen Fan the anger of several tens of thousands of people in the sect. The endless pure energy within his dantian was transferred into his meridians one after another. Only after it had completed its circulation through his entire body did it finally shoot out from his palm. The entire cycle of reincarnation was complete, without any waste at all. The Heavenly Heart Formula, on the other hand, was pushed to a crazed state, otherwise, it would not be able to keep up with the flames outside. The heat waves in the air rose and fell, as if they couldn''t wait to ignite the furniture in the surroundings. Chen Fan then raised his hand and absorbed all of it, and then threw it into the dao flame without hesitation. A ball of blazing flames was constantly burning in front of him, but Chen Fan controlled it to a reasonable extent so that it would not affect the entire room. In reality, this was not just a simple flame, but it contained Chen Fan''s understanding and memories of the Great Way. Every breath of time, it should have drained his cultivation, completely relying on his anger to persevere. If all of them were to be stacked together, they would probably be able to reach the full power of a protector expert. Through Chen Fan''s body that had turned into a pillar of fire, it rushed towards the Dao Burning Furnace from all directions. A vast expanse of crimson red appeared on the battlefield. It was so thick that people couldn''t even open their eyes, and a terrifyingly high temperature accompanied it. The Dao Burning Furnace was constantly being attacked at all times, and the patterns on its surface had also become brighter. But in the end, he did not see the scene that Chen Fang wanted him to see. He frowned slightly, lightly rebuked, and did not hesitate to spew out a mouthful of blood as he shot into the Furnace Body. Boom! Upon coming into contact with the Blood Essence, the surrounding flames of the Dao Burning Furnace began to emit a muffled sound. It immediately went up one level as flames surged, causing the air to turn completely red under the reflection of the flames. Not only that, even the purple veined patterns were moving. It looked more like little snakes dodging back and forth. The speed of its movement was so fast that it made people feel dazzled. Time slowly passed, and very soon an entire hour had passed. Chen Fan''s entire body was drenched in sweat, and facing the blazing fire, his body was on the verge of collapse. Crap, there seems to be a problem with the Dao Burning Furnace. After struggling for such a long time, why is it that the god inside has yet to manifest? Chen Fan frowned even more as he died, and so after so many accidents happened, he had prepared for them thousands of years ago, but never would he have thought that they would actually come out. Gritting his teeth, he tried his best to keep the flames burning. He sank into deep thought, and personally made a move using his own Blood Essence. Under normal circumstances, Dao Burning Furnace should have opened up their internal gods ¡­ The only explanation he could come up with was that someone had done something to the Dao Burning Furnace while he was in deep sleep. However, it was not just Little Cao ¡ª he knew that his Master would be reborn, and on the contrary, he should set up more support methods. It seems that there is someone who wants to target Qing Xuan Sect, but are they here for Little Cao, or are you planning to attack me? The more Chen Fan thought about it, the angrier he became. To be able to seal a Dao Burning Furnace, he was definitely not an ordinary person. His imprint in the world had disappeared for seven or eight thousand years, and Little Cao had passed away in meditation more than five thousand years ago. Unreconciled, he tried another fifteen minutes. In the end, the only thing he could do was lament, because this body was still too weak compared to Chen Fan''s. There were many clever methods that he was powerless to use. Even the seal on the Dao Burning Furnace, he could not detect what kind of aura was in it. With a dong sound, Chen Fan finally couldn''t hold on any longer and fell to the ground. Fortunately, his anger had been mostly used up, and the flames were extinguished as well. Waiting until all of the light rays converged, looking at the ordinary-looking and bumpy Dao Burning Furnace in front of him, Chen Fan didn''t know whether to laugh or cry. It was useless to be so conflicted, even if he knew who had made the move, he still didn''t have the power to go and demand an explanation from them. Originally, with Chen Fan''s current cultivation, it was not suitable for his to use large scale Dao Fire, so where would he get a Qi Disciple level 5 cultivator to start concocting pills immediately. But he had to do it, and he could only do it. If he were to go to the Hua Ding Sect to propose, he would definitely need a Heavy Treasure in his hands to protect himself. Although the other party''s attitude was unclear, Chen Fan knew one thing. It was a good thing that after the Dao Burning Furnace was summoned again, it could barely display some of its power. If Chen Fan was careful and did not court death, he should not have any big problems. After a short rest, he regained his focus and recited the incantation in his heart. Then, the familiar Spirit Emblem appeared on his palm. C18 This was a palm technique of the same grade as Sky feather Seven Transformations, but it was also towards the Chen Fan of eight thousand years ago. Today, he would need to expend a great deal of effort to figure out the trick. Swish! A bright light flashed, and the white silk instantly shot out. Its speed was extremely fast, and it directly created a huge crater on the ground. Looking at that charred area and the smoke that was slowly rising, Chen Fan''s expression became a lot more serious. No way, no way. This is too brutal, he doesn''t even have the qualifications to enter the academy. The so called palm technique was actually very simple in Chen Fan''s mind. All he needed to do was to follow a specific route of the Spiritual Energy and pour it into the meridians in his arm. In any case, as long as this thing could be broken through, it would cause quite a bit of damage. The key laid in how to control these Spiritual Energy and which meridian to enter into. Speaking of which, the Eight Extreme Palms were obtained from an ancient demon. To be able to create a palm art suitable for Human Clan cultivation with the help of the Demon Clan''s body, he could be considered a genius of his generation. Bang! On the thirty-seventh try, when the palm wind was just about to break through the door, it was recalled back by Chen Fan with just a thought, and then it exploded in midair and did the least that could be done. The surging Spiritual Energy did not show any signs of disorder, and smoothly guided everywhere, even the residual energy released by the palm wind was quickly calmed. Well, this time it was okay. Chen Fan muttered to himself as he learned the lessons from his failures and adjusted two of the meridians appropriately. He would only rest after his arms had become numb, but he quickly immersed himself in the torturous torture. Even if every wisp of the Spiritual Energy evaporated, he would let himself reach the true purity of the fire. Originally, his body did not have much energy to use, nor could he simply let it go to waste. It wasn''t an exaggeration to say that Chen Fa walked down from the divine altar. He was well aware that even a branch of dead wood could be used as a divine blade to launch an unrivalled attack. It came from his understanding of Spiritual Energy s, which had already reached an extremely thorough level. His ten thousand years of experience had long tempered the edges of Chen Fan''s heart, and he was more patient than any other young person in the world. It was very likely that he would lose a drop of his blood during the war. Chen Fan naturally understood why it was so obvious. Bang! Bang! Bang! One after another, palm imprints were sent out. After a dull sound, even space itself was shaken and a large part of the space was caved in. Under the same condition, the power of his Eight Extreme Palm was several times stronger than an ordinary person. No one would put so much effort into researching such a simple palm technique. Similarly, it was impossible for them to have such a huge impact on the void. But in Chen Fan''s eyes, there were still many flaws. His speed and strength were both lacking a little in comparison. By his standards, the Eight Extreme Palms were at most half a step into perfection, not to mention perfection, but he still needed more time to perfect it. In the blink of an eye, three days had passed and Chen Fan hadn''t even moved an inch. He was completely immersed in his cultivation as the strength of his Eight Extreme Palms steadily increased. Furthermore, with the Seven Heavenly Feather Transformations which he took by surprise, he more or less had the ability to protect himself when he headed towards the Hua Ding Sect. After all, he still had the Heavenly Heart Formula as his foundation. Dong! Dong! Dong! There was a knock on the door, and with a casual wave of his palm, he casually opened the door and rushed out of the room towards the Ancient Tree. Aiyo, Alien Minister Chen is really diligent, you made me feel inferior again. Peng Lu did not sense anything as he walked in happily. Soon after, he heard a loud noise coming from behind him. Ka-cha! * A hundred year old Ancient Tree, that was five feet thick, was actually smashed out with a deep pit. A large amount of wood splinters flew everywhere and the gigantic crown of the tree swayed back and forth, scaring Peng Lu quite a bit. This was the true power of the Eight Extreme Palms. If Chen Fan had truly wanted to attack, he would only need to use a tiny bit of his cultivation to create such a wound. How is it, is he going to go to the Hua Ding Sect? Chen Fan said calmly. Uh, my master and I went over together, and we just happened to have something to take care of. The frightened Peng Lu patted his chest. He was not surprised at how powerful Chen Fan''s fighting strength was. In any case, Peng Lu was still at Qi Disciple level 8, but the key was that he did not feel it at all. It really was as if there was no sign of a Spiritual Energy moving at all. It only shot out a ray of cold light, as if it was hidden in the void, or as if it was moving so fast that the naked eye did not see it. In short, Peng Lu''s admiration for Chen Fan had deepened. There was a reason why he could intimidate several elders on the very day he entered the Sect. Let''s go. Without much words, Chen Fan immediately stood up. From these pitiful few words he had exchanged during this period of time, he more or less understood Peng Lu''s situation. Although he had a high cultivation, in reality, his status was not high in the Qing Xuan Sect, and his days were bleak. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have been allocated here. The main reason for all this was his master. Even though he was revered as a protector, he had not joined the camp of the fifth elder. Plus, he had a loyal and honest personality. Although he had been valued highly by the Ninth Elder earlier, he had never expected the latter to die young, and thus his branch had been isolated from the group. Even a fool would be able to tell that it would be difficult to please her even if she were to go to the Hua Ding Sect to propose marriage, and she would also have to bear a great risk. Therefore, the heavy responsibility naturally fell upon Peng Lu and his unlucky master. Just as he walked down from Spiritual Peak, there was already a middle-aged man waiting there. Peng Lu hurriedly stepped forward to introduce him. Alien Minister Chen, this is my master, and he is our Qing Xuan Sect''s protector. How would I dare? Young genius of Alien Minister Chen, just call me Qin Sheng. Chen Fan took a glance and could tell that this person did not seem to be scheming. A few big words were written all over his face. If you two, master and disciple, follow me, you will not suffer any losses. Chen Fan said indifferently. He did not intend to make a promise, as he was extremely confident. Although it was easier to gain trust for honest people, in a Cultivation Realm where the strong preyed on the weak, with Qin Sheng''s character, it would be easier to be ignored by others. Furthermore, in a place like the Qing Xuan Sect, without any special fortuitous encounters or outstanding innate gifts, one would only have one protector to the end of their life, and their cultivation would not have progressed by much either. After bitterly cultivating in the Sect for dozens of years, it would naturally be extremely good if he could get a promotion from the Alien Minister Chen. Qin Sheng was first stunned upon hearing this, but he did not pay too much attention to it. But we have to wait until the marriage of Hua Ding Sect is over before we speak of it again. When we go there, we must pay attention to our own safety, so don''t say anything that you shouldn''t. Chen Fan didn''t speak anymore, and the three of them quietly made their way to the martial ground. Only here would they have Domain Gate to go to. A few disciples were busy at the side. They must have just sent away a group of disciples and had to control them with all their might every time they opened the gate. This was why it took so much effort. Please help me activate the Domain Gate. This is a special mission given by Sect Leader. No one around the Domain Gate bothered for a while, so Peng Lu took the initiative to step forward to ask. But still, no one responded, and no one knew what exactly he was doing. We have something to discuss with Hua Ding Sect, if you do not help, please make way, I will do it myself. Qin Sheng couldn''t help but personally request that, with the help of his Domain Gate, he could similarly teleport ten thousand miles away. This time, there was a reply, but it was not in his eyes at all. Sigh, there isn''t enough Spiritual Stone today. You guys can fly over. A disciple waved his hand and said with a mocking tone. This was truly laughable. The great Reverend and Lord Protector were actually so shabby. There would be a large number of Spiritual Stone s on the Sect every day, and there would usually be a large amount left over at night. Qin Sheng straightened his neck, even though he was arguing with the few juniors, he still appeared to be at a disadvantage. There are so many people out today, where did all this nonsense come from? That person was getting impatient, but this should not be the attitude of a conversation with a Sect elder in the first place. Hmph, what nonsense, you clearly did this on purpose. The protective Domain Gate was originally a heavy responsibility, just what are your intentions?! After being choked back, Qin Sheng was also angry, when he talked about the excitement of it, the Qi outside his body became even sharper. The people in front of them couldn''t help but take two steps back. They were suppressed by this aura and their faces turned red. If I say no, then no. What? Do you still want to hit me? If it were any other protector, even if he was given ten guts, he still wouldn''t dare to be so impudent. However, Qin Sheng belonged to the Guardian who had the weakest sense of presence in the Qing Xuan Sect, so he did not have any foundation to speak of. More importantly, many people were staring at his position. As long as he made a mistake, he would immediately be pulled down. This was also one of the reasons why he was often targeted. Alien Minister Chen, they must have been ordered by someone else. While Qin Sheng was still in the midst of a debate, Peng Lu discussed with Chen Fan in a low voice. Peng Lu was long accustomed to his master''s infuriated state, even towards him. However, something didn''t feel right with these fellows today. Qin Sheng was a Protector after all, and if they mentioned that he wanted to go to Hua Ding Sect, he shouldn''t be stopped. With their attitude, they must have received someone''s order to embarrass Chen Fan and the others. Why are we leaving? Chen Fan retorted back seriously. Since this was a Domain Gate, then every disciple should be able to use it. Haha, you''ve only been here for a few days, do you really think of yourself as an outsider? Do you know what is called heaven and earth? If I were to say that this isn''t a lunatic, I would have relied on nonsense to gain a place of worship. It''s such a pity for such a good qualification. In succession, two disciples ridiculed him with sharp words and didn''t show any intention of holding back their face in the slightest. C19 I''ll give you two a choice. The first set of Domain Gate will open, and then, you can leave. Chen Fan''s face did not change, of course he would not be angered because of these clowns, but he could not be humiliated like this. Second, get the hell out of Qing Xuan Sect and give it to someone else to take care of. There is no need for you, a scum, here. As soon as he said that, the people around him were all startled, as though they did not expect Chen Fan to be so tough, and was immediately replaced by anger, he pointed at the tip of his nose and said fiercely: What? Did I hear wrongly? Do you think that you are qualified to make me scram? What the hell are you? If I don''t teach you a lesson today ¡­ Before he could finish, a pair of large hands descended from the sky, enveloping all of them and causing them to sink into the Spiritual Energy cage. The five handprints were stuck in the ground and stuck deep into the ground. The lines on them were even more profound. With the cultivation of these disciples, they would definitely not be able to break through them, let alone forcefully break through them. How dare you attack a fellow disciple! Bastard, you''re going to die soon! Before these guys could react to what was going on, they were forcefully locked up. They struggled with all their might, and even shouted while cursing. So noisy. Just as the two simple words came out of his mouth, Chen Fan added some fire into the cage along with it. The temperature quickly rose, and was quickly drowned by the scarlet light. This was the flame that was previously used to stimulate the Dao Burning Furnace. Borrowing the anger of these few fellows, it was then transferred to their bodies. The entire process was completed in one go. Alien Minister Chen, this isn''t good, right? Peng Lu was a little worried, if he really caused a huge ruckus, then there would be a huge problem waiting for him. Qin Sheng opened his mouth, wanting to say something but no words came out. He would never get involved in something like this. I''ve already warned you guys, you have to experience what happens when you disobey me, there''s nothing I can do about it. Chen Fan shrugged his shoulders, waved his hand, and in the howling of the wind, the fire became even more intense. Ah, you bastard! I must kill you! They are just foreign bastards, what right do they have to attack us! At first, these few people were not willing to give in and kept shouting, but as the temperature around them skyrocketed, they were soon unable to hold on any longer. Their hair had already been charred, and would soon be cooked thoroughly. Chen Fan, no, no, Alien Minister Chen, we know we are at fault, you are a big man, please spare our lives ¡­ At this time, there were already many disciples gathered in the surrounding area. They had originally come to practice the martial arts techniques, but they hadn''t thought that there would be such a lively scene to watch. However, when they walked over, most of their expressions changed. They could feel the heat wave coming from their faces. The few people trapped in the cage didn''t feel angry at all. Shit, he couldn''t be really thinking of turning it into a murder case, right? Go and inform the other protectors that this kid is going crazy. Hearing the discussions at the side, Peng Lu was even more anxious. His master was like a log, standing there without saying a word. You are just ordinary disciples, taking care of the Domain Gate is a sacred duty given to you by the elders, if you can''t even do such a small thing well, then there is no need to continue on this path. Furthermore, Protector Qin is older than you all by dozens of years. Even if they are not in the same Sect, they should at least maintain a little respect. Chen Fan was completely instructing using the tone of a senior, his words were intense, if he truly had the authority of life and death, such a person definitely would not be allowed to appear within the Qing Xuan Sect. Alien Minister Chen, I think they already know that they were wrong. Seeing that there were no movements from the disciples lying on the ground, Qin Sheng opened his mouth to remind them. For Protector Qin''s sake, this time, I''ll let you guys suffer a little less. Chen Fan did not plan to pester her anymore, and told her, Hua Ding Sect, let''s go. The Spiritual Energy cage had already dissipated and the terrifying high temperature had disappeared. On the other hand, these fellows had been tortured to the point that they couldn''t even be considered human anymore. His entire body was covered in a layer of charred flesh. Green smoke rose from his bald head, and only a few pieces of his torn clothes were left on his skin. The tip of his nose was twitching, and there was even a slight aroma of meat. When I come back and see you guys again, I''ll kill. Chen Fan threw down these words, and expressionlessly entered the Domain Gate. How could they dare to stay here any longer? Without the domineering attitude from before, the blood and sweat on their faces were mixed. They rolled on the ground and left the Martial Arts Practice Grounds. They really couldn''t even stand. Inside the Spatial Channel, Peng Lu and Qin Sheng could not even calm down. They looked at the figure in front of them and did not speak for a long time. This boy was simply too powerful, catching them both off guard. What kind of calamity was he going to face next? Those guys must have been ordered by him, and this was equivalent to offending the big boss. There''s no need to be disturbed, if anything happens, I will take responsibility for it. At most, I can just go and ask for an explanation from Lan Yu. Different from the former''s worry, although he took action to teach his a lesson, Chen Fan was still aware of the deeper problem. Earlier, a disciple had asked for a protector, but he still hadn''t revealed himself. Those old fellows wouldn''t allow him to be so impudent. The only possibility was that someone really did set up a trap behind his back. They were waiting for Chen Fan to cause a few deaths, and when that happened, they would immediately take out the Sect Rules. Using such a clumsy method to scam a bunch of rookies was alright, but using it in front of Chen Fan was just making a fool of himself. Not only did he let those fellows experience extreme ''enjoyment'', but he also let out a breath of air, so that they wouldn''t really die. Moreover, there were over a hundred disciples watching him, so whatever happened in the future would have nothing to do with him. Although it was only a quarter of the continent, the Southern Domain was also a vast region. It could easily be counted with ten thousand miles. Even an expert cultivator would have to expend a great deal of effort to cross this land. As for a little fellow at the Qi Refining stage like Chen Fan, even if he flew for a dozen years, he might not even be able to make it across the two ends of the Southern Domain. Thus, he could only rely on his Domain Gate to teleport from a distance, and with the help of the power of space, he traveled ten thousand kilometers in the shortest amount of time. Weng! * With a loud boom, Chen Fan and the others arrived at the entrance of the Hua Ding Sect. Just as he regained his senses, Peng Lu couldn''t help but exclaim in surprise. Even though he had come here two or three times before, he was still extremely shocked every time. It had to be said that the construction of the Hua Ding Sect was rather gorgeous, and the majestic halls almost formed a single piece. From time to time, there would even be sounds coming from it, giving off the appearance of a peerlessly beautiful deity. C20 In comparison, Hua Ding Sect was dressed in luxurious and overbearing armor, and Qing Xuan Sect was like a wild child that had grown up in the countryside. In the Alien Minister Chen, it was said that all of these halls had Spell Formation s protecting them, and they could even be activated at the same time, forming an extremely high level Heavy Treasure. Its might could be said to be able to annihilate the world. Peng Lu called out emotionally, and Qin Sheng also nodded his head slightly. If he could choose, who would be willing to go to that kind of crappy place called Qing Xuan Sect to cultivate? To Chen Fan, all of this was nothing, just a pile of bricks. After going through countless changes in the past ten thousand years, no matter how strong the hall was, there would eventually be a day it would collapse. So it turns out to be an honorable guest of Qing Xuan Sect. A middle aged man walked over and spoke with a face full of smiles. From the looks of it, he should be acquainted with Qin Sheng. Although the two of them were in the role of Protectors, not only were their actual positions greatly different within the Sect, their strength was also more or less stronger. This was the disparity between Hua Ding Sect and regular disciples. From ordinary disciples to the strongest protectors of the Qing Xuan Sect, they were all much stronger than each other. Alien Minister Chen, this is Protector Wang from the Hua Ding Sect. Qin Sheng suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward. Uh, Protector Wang was startled, a look of astonishment flitting across his face, but soon after he stiffly stretched out his hand. Please forgive me for being stumped, but Alien Minister Chen should forgive me. Speaking of which, this protector seemed to have long known the purpose of Chen Fan and the rest''s visit. He did not ask any further questions and just directly entered the Sect, looking for a place to rest in the courtyard. Everyone, please wait for a moment. Protector Wang had disappeared, leaving Chen Fan and the rest alone for a long time. Finally, a temple boy came over to inform them that the elders were all in a state of cultivation, and the fastest they could receive was the day after tomorrow. It was very obvious that the higher ups of the Hua Ding Sect were still discussing, so Chen Fan and the rest could not urge them, and could only wait. In a large hall deep within the Hua Ding Sect sat ten elders from two different sects. Both of them had white and flowery hair and hid a vigorous aura within their bodies, which looked more like giant dragons hibernating. Who was the person that Qing Xuan Sect had sent to propose marriage? This was obviously the Sect Leader of the Hua Ding Sect, Nangong Yi. Reporting to Sect Leader, there was a Guardian and Guardian, as well as a follower disciple. The Protector Wang was standing below, and was reporting about Chen Fan and the others. Heh, and it''s actually three generations of ancestors coming at once, the Qing Xuan Sect is really sincere. The Great Elder smiled. He had never seen three people come to propose marriage before. This old man has said that our Qing Xuan Sect has already weakened to the point where we are unable to support it. There is no need for us to waste this effort. The Fourth Elder said that he was unwavering in his opposition to the marriage alliance. Did they plan on coming here just to propose marriage, or had they already brought the leader of their family here? Nangong Yi was unmoved, he was more concerned about the happiness of his future granddaughter. The Sect Leader should have been just testing them, and among the few of them, the Guardian looked to be quite young. Protector Wang was also very perplexed. Normally, only Senior Expert with great prestige would hold such a position, but he had never heard of a young man climbing up there. Even if he had an even higher innate talent, his combat power and experience were all heavy injuries, not to mention a transcendent power like Qing Xuan Sect. Earlier, he had received news that a young man had entered the Qing Xuan Sect and was being promoted to a reverend master on the same day. This speed was truly unprecedented. The fifth elder said in a mocking tone. This matter sounded like a complete joke, but he didn''t expect that his Qing Xuan Sect would actually be so unrestrained, and that there was simply no cure for him. The Fourth Elder also shook his head, he didn''t understand what the higher ups of the Qing Xuan Sect were thinking. No matter how talented they were, they were still juniors, so how could they do such a thing? The group of elders did not approve of the way the Qing Xuan Sect was acting, but of course even Lan Yu and the rest were even more helpless. This was the result he had to fight for. Otherwise, he would have another ridiculous elder. I think we need to think over the matter of the marriage. Even though he had yet to see Chen Fan, the Third Elder had already come to a conclusion. The few elders in the hall had similar intentions, they didn''t really support him in the first place, but when they operated their Qing Xuan Sect in such a way, they really threw away that thread of thought. This old man thinks that the actions of Qing Xuan Sect are just proof of their sincerity. Seventh Elder who had not spoken for a long time said, as he stood beside Nangong Yi. That made sense, and he didn''t directly ask this young Guardian to marry him. He only came here to propose, and it wasn''t good for a group of old fellows to personally come forward. Patriarch Nine quickly agreed. Even if it isn''t proper for a few Senior Expert s to come, the difference between my Hua Ding Sect and theirs is obvious. I''m just afraid that they won''t be able to help us out. This was a little too absolute. Marriage was one aspect, and the overall strength of Qing Xuan Sect was another aspect. If one were to really talk about it, then he still had some background. There were endless discussions in the hall. Overall, most of the elders disagreed with this marriage. The other two very shrewdly chose to remain neutral. The two did not help each other and had no prejudice towards Qing Xuan Sect, but they did not approve of the Holy Maiden marrying. Juniors, the marriage between my Hua Ding Sect and my Qing Xuan Sect has always been a tradition that spans several hundred years. You are roughly aware of the situation regarding our sect. Nangong Yi''s voice increased by a few notches, forcefully suppressing the disagreement within the hall. He was naturally the first to approve of the marriage, but he was also not someone who could be casually married off. After careful consideration, Qing Xuan Sect is already the best choice. If everyone is still not satisfied, then make a decision. As long as it is more profound than this decision, our sect will definitely support it. Everyone present knew where Nangong Yi''s sore spot was. If they were to open their mouths at this moment, it would be no different from tearing apart that layer of scab with their hands. Protector Wang silently left the hall. Noticing that the atmosphere wasn''t right, he walked out of the hall with a bang behind him. After a while, Nangong Yi continued to persuade them. Even if they couldn''t agree with the elders, at least three of them would approve, or else this marriage would become chaotic. Our sect knows that all of you are thinking about Sect, but if it''s necessary, we should put down some face. With Yuan Sect pressing on us step by step, rather than having an enemy, we might as well be good friends. As a Sect Leader, he had to start from the perspective of Sect as a whole. Disregarding the appearance of his granddaughter, Yuan Sect was the most pressing matter at hand. C21 Seeing that they had grown stronger day by day, the other transcendent powers all took measures to protect themselves, so their Hua Ding Sect similarly could not be left behind. An alliance was the best way out. No matter what, Qing Xuan Sect was a genuine big sect, they had quite a bit of ability to contend against Yuan Sect, so if they formed an alliance with it, the latter would definitely think twice, and at least restrain some of their overzealous actions. Moreover, I have given you three years of observation time. If there is anything amiss, we can discuss it in the future. Today''s marriage proposal must respond with enough goodwill. Regarding the choice of Qing Xuan Sect, we don''t have the authority to interfere, but since he has come, we can''t complete the mission so easily. The Head Elder lightly stroked the white beard on his chin and made a suggestion. In this old man''s opinion, we shouldn''t rush to express our opinion and see how skilled this young reverend is. Nangong Yi''s expression softened a lot as he thought to himself that the Great Clan Elder understood his intentions more. That''s right, our sect just so happens to have this thought as well. We can set up a few checkpoints for him and explain it to the outside world. With the decision of the two great leaders, the rest of the elders could not speak anymore. The next part of the discussion was about how to test Chen Fan so that he would not lose his dignity and send a good signal to the Qing Xuan Sect s. After being settled, no one bothered for three days straight, so in the end, Peng Lu directly slipped out. He had come to the Hua Ding Sect a few times before, and also made two or three friends. The usually silent Qin Sheng had been called away by Protector Wang. He didn''t know what reason it was, maybe it was because he was looking for him to talk about marriage, or because it was just a way to reminisce about old times. Only Chen Fan, who had yet to leave, was like a married woman who could not bear to waste even a moment to cultivate. He no longer had his usual cultivation level, but his instincts told him of a fact. There was someone spying on him from nowhere. His eyes were everywhere, yet they were nowhere to be seen as they filled the entire room. It looks like these old fellows from Hua Ding Sect were already tempted, and in the next two days, they would definitely make a decision. Perhaps they would even need to conduct a special examination of me. Chen Fan thought to himself. He was very clear that the reason they kept Qin Sheng away was to keep an eye on his movements. After all, a twenty year old Guardian was just too eye-catching. He did not mind it at all, since he was focused on his cultivation anyway. His Heavenly Feather Seven Transformations and Eight Extreme Palms had both improved greatly, but the Heavenly Heart Formula s were useless ¡ª he could not be impudent in someone''s territory when he was new here. If only he could leave behind a set of Hua Ding Sect, Chen Fan thought to himself. Although he had found out from Peng Lu that this Sect had existed for tens of thousands of years, he still could not recall anything. When the sun rose on the fourth day, Peng Lu finally delivered a message. Alien Minister Chen, Hua Ding Sect has proposed to undergo a young genius'' test, it is said that it is to promote marriage, and they want you to participate in it by name. Uuu, I''ll just go, and let them take a look at my Qing Xuan Sect''s true strength as well. As he expected, Chen Fan replied. After the furtive gaze yesterday disappeared, he knew that there would be an outcome for those old fellows. In these two days, I heard quite a few rumors in Hua Ding Sect. It seemed that many of them didn''t agree with this marriage, and said that they would teach you a lesson on the stage. Earlier, he knew from the Qing Xuan Sect that this mission would not be easy to accept. If not for the elder''s forceful order, he definitely would not have come to the Hua Ding Sect to receive this anger. So what? A bunch of useless trash wanted to follow in Zhao Hong''s footsteps. Chen Fan replied indifferently, these small matters wouldn''t disturb his state of mind. This is clearly bullying us, we actually sent a lot of inner disciples. This is the real news I heard, we have confirmed the person. Peng Lu''s eyes were filled with deep worry. He wanted to go up on stage, but the Hua Ding Sect elders and soldiers were not allowed, they were the ones in control. Ever since he started cultivating with the Heavenly Heart Formula, Chen Fan had never been worried that the Spiritual Energy would run dry this time. Furthermore, there were still Ancient Token of Grand Master in his hands. Sigh, I''ll go call my master, it''s going to start in an hour. Peng Lu was not optimistic about the outcome of the test, and sighed as he walked out. Peng Lu, you must remember that no matter when it comes down to it, only when one''s own strength is the right thing to do. With regards to this little fellow, it seemed like she was truly taking care of herself, so Chen Fan gave her an appropriate amount of advice. Un, I know Alien Minister Chen. After taking one step forward, he landed on the ground. Peng Lu didn''t know why, but he felt so strongly about the words of the former, as if there was some kind of magic behind them. Just as he stepped onto the martial stage, Chen Fan''s heart slightly jumped. Hm? It was impossible for him to have such a feeling for no reason. He looked around in confusion, and when he saw the large stone in the middle of the training field, he immediately felt at ease. He would definitely win today''s trial, and this marriage alliance would definitely be the same as well. With regards to the marriage test, the Hua Ding Sect had already received sufficient spread and fermentation yesterday. With the help of someone who was interested in it, a large majority of disciples held hostility towards the Qing Xuan Sect. The test used to express goodwill had also been tarnished into a demonstration of Qing Xuan Sect. Many people had gathered at the Martial Arts Practice Grounds in advance, and there were quite a few cursing and swearing from their mouths. Looking at his decaying appearance, it was obvious that he was a short-lived ghost. He really didn''t know what Qing Xuan Sect was thinking. Letting such a fellow become a Guardian was the same as destroying oneself. When people saw people of the same kind who were weaker than themselves, they would always have a natural sense of superiority, and this was especially true for these Hua Ding Sect disciples. The eyes they looked at Chen Fan and the others were filled with contempt and disdain, as if they were beggars who had come to beg for food. From cultivation to aptitude, there was not a single bit that could compare to the talents of Hua Ding Sect. In order to show that the higher ups valued him fully, the six elders, including Sect Leader, all appeared at the spectator stands at the same time. In the face of the unkind looks from the surrounding spectators, Nangong Yi felt that he had lost the bearing of a transcendent power. He wanted to suppress them, but after thinking about it, he decided against it and decided against it. Since these few esteemed guests are all from Qing Xuan Sect, and since our two sects have always been close with each other, today I will let this old man support them and exchange pointers with a few of my Hua Ding Sect''s disciples. To avoid further controversy, the Grand Elder deliberately avoided the word. C22 But Chen Fan did not plan to just write it down, he deliberately raised the volume, and responded loudly: That''s right, we are here to propose marriage, if we can pass this round, Holy Maiden Hua Ding Sect will marry into Qing Xuan Sect. Hearing this, Peng Lu and Qin Sheng who were beside them staggered and almost fell to the ground, thinking that their master was really as domineering as ever, not giving face to anyone at all. Hehe, next are the few disciples this old man and the others have chosen, I want them to represent my Hua Ding Sect and have a competition with the distinguished guests from Qing Xuan Sect. With a dry cough, the Great Elder choked on his words. Then, at another entrance of the Martial Arts Practice Grounds, three youths walked out, all of them with proud expressions on their faces. To be personally invited by the Head Elder in front of so many disciples, it was undoubtedly extremely exciting. They were considered to be truly outstanding among the Hua Ding Sect young generation, with their Spiritual Consciousness s, their physical bodies, and their proficiency in mainstream cultivation. When they arrived in front of Chen Fan, they seemed to have long since reached a tacit understanding, and did a very rude action towards him in unison. Their middle fingers were raised, and the words that their mouths expressed were even more vulgar. Whoosh! Well done, I should show him my power. Let''s see if he still dares to act so arrogantly. Cheers and applause rang out from the crowd. A group of young people, who should have been full of vigor, were actually excited by this matter. Being able to enter the Hua Ding Sect is indeed your fortune, but this shouldn''t be the greatest glory you all have in your entire lives. I think the few seniors also don''t wish to see such a scene. The reason why there were so many hostile gazes and comments, was definitely because of one of those old fellows. If this destiny of mine isn''t rare, I don''t mind cutting it off myself. The entire stadium was silent for a couple of breaths after his voice sounded. However, what he received in return was a great uproar. This brat must be crazy, in front of the few elders and Sect Leader s, he was clearly looking down on them. Heh, if you still want to get married with my Hua Ding Sect, you should get the hell back as soon as possible. To be so powerful at such a young age, I really don''t know how powerful I am. To be able to put out such an old and experienced note, it really makes me nauseous. Towards these criticisms, Chen Fan turned a deaf ear. He still did not get recognition even within the Qing Xuan Sect, let alone in this unfamiliar Hua Ding Sect. Things are different. With a sigh in his heart, Chen Fan recalled a part of the past from his distant memories. The test had yet to begin, but from his point of view, it was already a foregone conclusion as to who would win and who would lose. Alright, Chen Fan... Reverend, the few people in front of you right now are my outstanding disciples of Hua Ding Sect, they have actually forcefully suppressed the two words Little Fellow Taoist. You can choose which one you want to compete with first, and this old man and the others won''t interfere. The three were named Xia Yan, Lu Ping, and Lu Fang. At this moment, their sense of honor had never been so great that they carried the hope and heavy responsibility of shouldering the entire Sect. You can do whatever you want. Chen Fan waved his hand and said with indifference. Brat, you are truly arrogant to the point of death. I wonder if you have the strength to do so. Xia Yan coldly shouted as he was the first to stand out. I need to correct myself. I am the Guardian Elder from the Qing Xuan Sect, the one from above just called out personally. Chen Fan extended his finger out, and pointed towards the Great Clan Elder''s direction. You might be able to interpret that as disrespect for him. The Great Clan Elder was extremely respected in the Hua Ding Sect, even the Sect Leader had some respect for him. Who would dare be rash in front of him, let alone have anything to do with such a fatal word like respect? Come on, let''s wait for you to fight. Xia Yan immediately took on a stance, sitting cross-legged on the ground. He spread out his hands, and each of them emitted a mysterious fluctuation. The space in front of him started to reveal a milky white light. This was the manifestation of his Spiritual Consciousness. From afar, it seemed as if countless tentacles had grown out of Xia Yan''s body, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws at his opponent. Regarding this, Chen Fan, who had never made any obvious movements until the tentacles reached within a few inches of his body, barely moved his feet away. He secretly activated the Heavenly Feather Seven Transformations, and in a short period of time, his speed was raised to the extreme. This kid was so cocky just now and was a coward after all this time. He didn''t have the guts to fight Senior Brother Xia head on. Many people were watching the commotion, especially Chen Fang''s dodging tactics, causing them to laugh out loud, while Zhao Xu involuntarily broke out in a cold sweat. Hearing the call, Xia Yan''s confidence rose. But before he could calm his expression, he suddenly realized that the guy was heading straight for him. It''s just that that place is a little awkward to stand at, and it''s just a change in position. You don''t really think I''m dodging your attack, do you? Chen Fan said lazily, as he leisurely moved through the tentacles, quickly approaching Xia Yan. At the center of Chen Fan''s forehead, a crack also appeared. A thick pillar shot out and turned into the appearance of a giant multicolored tiger. Roar! The tiger''s roar shook the sky and earth. It was like a small mountain falling from the sky. Its body was huge, and after it jumped up, it pounced straight towards Xia Yan. All of the tentacles along the way retreated. The latter was instantly shocked, this was the manifestation of his most genuine Spiritual Consciousness, even going up against direct disciples, how did he become such a trash? Surprised, he quickly chanted a spirit art. His hands formed an even more obscure spirit art as a white light enveloped his entire body, giving him a dignified appearance. The strange tentacles that had been rapidly decreasing swelled up again after receiving the powerful support of this force. They were even more solid and powerful than before. Just based on Xia Yan''s age alone, to be able to unleash such a powerful Spiritual Consciousness''s power and control it freely, he could already be called a genius. The Great Elder and the others who were watching the battle from afar were all smiling. Their faces were filled with praise. However, the Tiger King did not stop his attacks. His two large claws were like a fan as they were lifted up. Under everyone''s gaze, he grabbed the tentacles without any explanation. Crack, crack, crack. He actually ate them all. No one knew what the other party would conjure, but even if a Genuine Dragon appeared, in the end, it still depended on how strong the real Spiritual Consciousness was. C23 Right now, the situation was very clear. Tiger King had always been tough, and even though Xia Yan''s tentacles had been revived, he was still pushed down. After the last part of the tentacle had been gnawed clean, Chen Fan had already arrived in front of Xia Yan. Even though he only took a single step forward, he was being attacked by hundreds and thousands of Spiritual Consciousness. Every tentacle treated him as a thorn in his side, and in such a narrow space, there was not much room for him to dodge. In the midst of this intense battle between the Spiritual Consciousness, Chen Fan was unharmed and passed through the core of the battle circle. By this time, Tiger King had already set up his posture, one order from him was enough to swallow Xia Hong''s head. Things like Spiritual Consciousness s, the effect of spreading directly between the eyebrows is definitely the best. No matter how meticulously you control it, there will be a certain amount of loss along the way. Chen Fan had gotten into his old trouble again, and couldn''t help but correct the little guys'' misdeeds. Besides, I don''t think you care about this battle at all. Or rather, you are just pretending to be cool and handsome from the beginning to the end. You! Xia Yan did not expect that he would lose so quickly. His face was flushed red, but he could not refute any further. He had never expected that his opponent would be an old monster with tens of thousands of years of memories. Even if he did not have the strength from before, at least he still had a sense of scope of what was happening. In Chen Fan''s eyes, his Three-legged Art seemed to have been slowed down by a hundred times, and he could easily avoid it. The surrounding disciples had yet to recover from their shock, it was obvious that Xia Yan had the upper hand in just a few breaths of time. His tentacles had all dispersed, and his godly aura had been completely suppressed by someone just like that. When Nangong Yi saw this scene, ripples began to rise in Gu Jing''s calm heart, making it difficult for him to see through this young man. Nangong Yi frowned, as if he had other intentions. Next. Chen Fan rushed in front of the Great Clan Elder and shouted. It had been many years since he had fought against these young Rankers, and Chen Fan felt that some of his vitality had been ignited. and he should contact more of the Young Outstanding s in order to assimilate into his current identity, so that he could return to the peak of power even faster. It''s just a game of dog shit luck and you''re still smug here. Let''s see how long you can continue laughing for. Lu Ping walked in front of Chen Fan, his voice like ice. Senior Martial Brother Lu, you can do it! He had to teach this brat a lesson. This was Spirit Ruins Sect, not that declining Qing Xuan Sect of his. Hahaha. Relax, I heard that Senior Martial Brother Lu has already touched the Foundation Establishment Stage barrier and will make a breakthrough soon. This guy is definitely not a match for him. The enthusiasm of many disciples was ignited once again. After all, the mainstream Cultivation Realm was still the increase in Spiritual Energy s. Hence, in their minds, Lu Ping, who had definitely reached Qi Disciple level 9, was the most powerful, and it would not be difficult for him to crush Chen Fan. Let me see how strong the genius experts of the Spirit Ruins Sect are. Chen Fan was also somewhat looking forward to it. Boom! The two of them started fighting fiercely, and with the former''s anger, Lu Ping directly avoided the part where both parties tried to attack, and the surging Spiritual Energy quickly surrounded them. Waves of sharp Qi started to run all over the place, attempting to enter Chen Fan''s body, but the latter would not allow anyone to do as they pleased. Bang! Bang! Bang! When he came into contact with the Taiji Fist, he struck it with his palm. The majestic Spiritual Energy collided wantonly in the air, and soon, layer after layer of depressions were formed. It was evident how powerful the collision was. However, Chen Fan''s control over the palm technique was far superior to his opponent''s. It looked like it was aimed at the neck, but at the final critical point, he would divert another portion of the force towards the lower abdomen, starting with unbridled destruction. Which was to say, Lu Ping had the advantage of cultivation realm. Thus, he wasn''t the slightest bit worried about the Spiritual Energy being exhausted. Every time he threw a punch, it would be extremely powerful, to the point where he couldn''t wait to smash the entire Martial Arts Practice Grounds. Boundless energy surged as spiritual light flashed and intersected between the two of them. However, there were no traces of it with the naked eye. Cracks appeared on the ground, but they quickly healed. Not bad, you are much stronger than that brat just now. Chen Fan said while chuckling. The Heavenly Heart Formula that he was channeling had not stopped since Lu Ping had arrived, and an endless supply was being supplied from his body. With regards to this, Chen Fan obviously needed to report more. Tiger King had already disappeared, and two slender tongues of flame instantly appeared in his hands, spreading out to a length of more than ten meters, quickly forming a tight protective net with a wave of his hands. No matter how many strong winds Lu Ping sent out, he was still unable to break through this barrier. The temperature in the air was rapidly rising, but even if he wanted to get close to it, he couldn''t. Ah!" Bastard, within ten moves, I will make you beg for mercy! Lu Ping shouted harshly. His five fingers came together as a giant palm imprint was released. After brewing for a long time, the amount of Spiritual Energy that was carried on it could be said to be massive. It vaguely had the power to suppress the heavens and the earth. Before coming into contact with the two tongues of flame, the Spiritual Qi had been constantly gathering along the way. The size of the palm print quickly increased to the size of a house and cast a large shadow on the ground. Boy, you''re dead. Veins throbbed on Lu Ping''s forehead. His voice was ice-cold, giving off waves of chilliness. This fellow''s temper wasn''t small, so he was quite a good source of nourishment. Chen Fan almost wanted to laugh out loud. If it wasn''t for the fact that there were so many Spirit Ruins Sect Rankers around, he would have directly captured Lu Ping and kept him in captivity. From time to time, he would get angry. With his temper, he seemed to be able to match up to half an elder in terms of atmosphere. Senior Martial Brother Lu was truly extraordinary; he could kill him with a single slap. Luckily he had the [Spiritual Consciousness] Inherent Skill, but that was it. He had knelt down and begged for mercy, giving up on the thought of marrying us. With this brat''s treacherous look, Senior Brother Lu must be careful, he might even use Spiritual Consciousness to sneak an attack him. One person fighting, with a large group of martial brothers guiding them from behind. Although it wouldn''t be of much help, it was enough to distract them. Puff, puff. Chen Fan opened up the wings on his back, but didn''t fly up to the sky. After pondering for a bit, he saw hundreds and thousands of Lingyu flying out, and the light aura surged even faster. Every single one of them was incomparably sharp, and they were like small knives as they surrounded that palm print. Two tongues of flame crackled as they violently twitched in the air. Normally, it was used to refine various treasures, but now that it had been compressed a little by Chen Fan, the temperature of a few inches of space could even melt metal. Under normal circumstances, Chen Fan, who was only at Qi Disciple Level 6, was indeed not Lu Ping''s match. However, his experience could not be underestimated. C24 It was almost as if it was carved into his bones by his instincts. The seemingly mighty and boundless handprint was in fact full of holes, and could be easily dispelled with a light tap of his finger. A strong destructive aura suppressed the palm imprint. No matter how shocking its size was, in the end, it was still a piece of loose sand. After being hit by the high temperature, only an empty shelf remained. Sensing that the situation was not good, Lu Ping bit the tip of his tongue and subconsciously wanted to use his Blood Essence to save the situation, but he was unable to make it in time for the palm print to collapse. Those Lingyu who swarmed over, seemed like maggots on the bones. No matter what, they had to peel off a few parts of the Spiritual Energy before they were willing to let go. The entire audience sunk into silence, once again reversing direction. This time, it happened way too quickly, as if it had already been set for a long time. Bastard! I want you dead! After a moment of absent-mindedness, Lu Ping let out a roar. He could not accept the fact that a nameless nobody from a broken sect like the Qing Xuan Sect had actually defeated him in public. However, there were two tongues of flame that were twice as thick surrounding him, like poisonous snakes that had drilled out from the mouth of a volcano. Speaking of which, this pillar of fire was formed by him directly, and Chen Fan was only responsible for adjusting his position. This spar ended here, and indeed, a young genius emerged. This old man approves of the fact that Master Chen Fan was able to give them a lesson. The Great Clan Elder had always been paying attention to the situation as he took over, he knew that something was wrong the moment Lingyu appeared and immediately shouted to stop Lu Ping. If this continued, he might really lose control. You are quite smart and did not waste your great aptitude. Unfortunately, you are too arrogant, so you should experience more setbacks and sharpen yourself more. Chen Fan carried his hands behind his back, and spoke in an aged voice. He looked even more steady than the few elders, but his face only showed a little immaturity. Lu Ping walked off the stage without saying a word. His face was ashen, but there was nothing he could do. His cultivation was not inferior to the direct disciples of the elders, but he was still not a match for this fellow. The victor was the king, and the loser was the bandit. All the advantages were placed on the victor''s side. In the end, Lu Fang was skilled in body training. He looked thin, but his exposed skin revealed a well-built bronze color. His distinct muscles gave him an unparalleled sense of strength. Sigh, it''s just flesh and blood. This battle is difficult. For the first time, Chen Fan sighed. He did not do it for Lu Fang, but rather thought back to when he was at his peak state, and also paid a huge price on his body. Lu Fang walked over with quick steps. His fists were clenched so tightly that a loud bang could be heard. He was only about seven feet tall. Surprisingly, he had attracted the attention of several strong gusts of wind. In contrast, Chen Fan was a little too weak. It was more like an egg striking a stone, Lu Ping had already unleashed his heavy punch. Pop! This was the sound of fists piercing through the air. With such speed, ordinary people would not even be able to defend against Light Shield s. It smashed straight towards Chen Fan''s shoulder. After all, a person does not have an omniscient existence, they will always have a relatively weaker side. Just as the audience thought that Chen Fan had lost, they only saw him raise his hand slowly, to receive the fatal blow. His body shook slightly and he took two steps back. Then, he stomped down with his left foot and a giant hole appeared in the ground. Although his body had not been tempered before, Chen Fan naturally had his own ways of dealing with it. With the power of softness and the strength of circulation, he could easily export it through his skin. In an urgent battle, it could even be reflected back into Lu Fang''s body, nearing his meridians. This allowed him to try out the taste of being injured by a single fist wind. Ka-cha! * The entire Martial Arts Practice Field was protected by the Spell Formation, so it was not easy for the ground to be destroyed. However, right now, there was a ten foot wide hole that appeared pitch-black in front of everyone''s eyes. In terms of fighting strength, it all depended on the terrifying power of the fleshly body cultivators. Perhaps Lu Ping''s killing intent could reach such a degree, but it was forcibly resolved by Chen Fan. So it turned out that this kid''s physical body was weak. Shixiong Lu Fang was here to avenge his two fellow apprentices. Heh, I was wondering how someone could be so abnormal. In the end, they were still exposed. Seeing Chen Fan being humiliated had undoubtedly caused many disciples to be excited, and they all thought that they had finally found their way to their fates. Rumble rumble rumble! Both sides engaged in a close combat. If one were to listen carefully, one would hear a sound akin to a surging river from within Lu Fang''s body. Clearly, his life force was at its peak. This body had been asleep for several thousand years, and there were many places that had yet to be fully awakened. Under the premise of not using the Spiritual Energy s, the opponent did not seem to have a fiery temper that was easily provoked. Chen Fan had indeed fallen into a certain trap. However, he had been continuously launching palm attacks, which had triggered the wind to howl. Although it was not a long-term plan, it was still a great buffer against Lu Fang. As a result, Chen Fan had ample time to export his power, and even if Lu Fang were to pierce through the heavens, he would not be affected at all, and would only affect the Martial Arts Practice Grounds. The two of them were usually separated the moment they made contact, and in a short span of a few breaths, they had already exchanged over a hundred rounds, which led to the appearance of Formation Pattern s in the training grounds, repairing their heavy punches that were constantly falling, the cracks in the ground were like spider webs. You''re really strong, Lu Fang said in a low voice, still looking surprised. But you''re even worse than I am. Every time there was a rough collision between the two, a faint glow would seep out from the surface of the skin. It was simple and pure, giving people an extremely enjoyable feeling while also unconsciously feeling a sense of heartache. The reason that all the disciples present had gathered around was because not only was Lu Fang''s combat power strong, Chen Fan was also able to fight evenly with him. The two of them fought back and forth intensely. However, they had lost two matches in a row. If something were to go wrong here, they would be able to sweep away the face of the Hua Ding Sect. The so called "four or five thousand jin" was because he was constantly looking for an opportunity to escape. The natural cycle of reincarnation just happened to lose the ''one'' that it was trying to escape from. Even those with great capabilities would have to submit to this line of reasoning. Such a profound principle, was something that only Chen Fan could comprehend, and even a few elders might not have been able to reach this level. The battle was still continuing, although the techniques were fatal, but if it was any other cultivator, they would have been beaten to pulp by Lu Fang, and even after so many attempts, Chen Fan was still standing there unharmed. It didn''t take long for someone to discover the abnormality. The latter was clearly moving slowly, but every movement of his was aimed at the vital points. Even if he were to touch them slightly with his fingertips, he would often be able to push back Lu Fang''s Iron Palm Boxing, forcing him to withdraw his strength. It didn''t seem like two youths were sparring. Putting aside the fact that their appearances were similar, the two figures intersected with each other, giving off the impression that their elders were guiding their juniors. On the other hand, Lu Fang had used up a lot of his energy. Most of the ground had been cracked by him, but he hadn''t even touched the corner of his clothes. The difference was obvious. Phew, I lost. After an hour of killing, Lu Fang could no longer hold on as he panted heavily. He had relied on the path of the flesh the most, and his foundation was not bad. However, he was being led by the nose little by little, completely exhausting his strength. Even he could not believe it. Since he had chosen to take the side path of the sword, there was no need to talk about him. All he had to do was focus on tempering his body. This path would definitely be a great path to tread. The first two clocked in a few sentences, but they couldn''t ignore Lu Fang. Alien Minister Chen is wise, junior has received his teachings. Unexpectedly, after hearing Chen Fan''s words, the latter not only did not show any signs of impatience, but instead cupped his hands in thanks, and spoke with a very respectful and cautious tone. Uuu, since your attitude isn''t bad, then I''ll say it again. Chen Fan pointed at his own head and said. As long as you have the courage to pass through the Baihui acupoints with a Heavenly Thunder, you will definitely surpass these two rotten wood in the future. This kind of cultivation method was unheard-of, one had to know that it was one of the largest Death Acupuncture Points in the human body, and there was no need to even mention the might of Heavenly Thunder s. Everyone revealed a look of disdain. If there was any common sense, they would not believe such a suggestion. Although it seemed wise, it was actually hypocritical. Okay, junior will remember. Lu Fang bowed deeply. He was as sincere as he could be, causing the surrounding people to drop their jaws in shock. He was quite open-minded and similarly did not take the discussions to heart. It didn''t matter how ugly his words were, or what sort of status he had, as long as it could help to raise his strength, he was still a good man. Everyone should stop today''s sparring and focus on cultivating. In the future, when Master Chen Fan comes back to give us pointers, if you are still in a sorry state, you will truly embarrass me with your Hua Ding Sect. Nangong Yi announced the results himself. Everyone left the training grounds in shock, yet they were fighting in their own territories against disciples of Qing Xuan Sect in all four directions. Wait a minute! Just then, an old man stood up and shouted at Chen Fan, everyone''s gaze turned to look at him. This old man is not afraid, this marriage is of great importance, just having our approval is not enough, we need the approval of our ancestors. The one who spoke was the Sixth Elder of Hua Ding Sect, who had an explosive temper and was known for being honest and straightforward. Otherwise, he would have been ranked at least within the first three places in Sect. From his words, one could tell that Nangong Yi and the Great Elder had always been bringing up the topic of marriage without saying anything. This sort of thing could only be confirmed after one''s Sect slowly seeped into one''s body. In the end, that old fellow''s words had made everything clear, and it caused many disciples to cry out in alarm. How could they not see that Sect Leader and the others had definitely made a decision to marry. Sect Leader, you should at least give me an explanation. If we were to get boarded by that old boat out of the blue, wouldn''t we be implicated? Originally, we were all fine, but with Qing Xuan Sect, it was obvious that we wanted to climb higher, so we couldn''t be fooled. The crowd immediately exploded as they looked at Chen Fan as if there was a deep grudge between them and that sea of blood. They were all worried that the alliance of their Qing Xuan Sect would affect their own interests. C25 Everyone, quiet down for this old man! The Great Clan Elder really had a lot of prestige. With a loud shout, he suppressed everyone''s discussion. This marriage is still in the process of being planned, and it will all depend on Qing Xuan Sect''s performance. Hua Ding Sect with over ten thousand disciples held a large amount of weight in the entire Southern Domain. Once a chaos broke out, the consequences would be unimaginable. In addition, this matter is of great importance and there are many things that I should not reveal to you. As expected of the Great Elder, he was extremely shrewd. He was able to deal with these people in a few sentences and also beat them up. The temptation of becoming a direct disciple was truly too great. Sixth Elder, the ancestors have already passed away many years ago. Aren''t you making things difficult for me by saying this? Nangong Yi''s expression didn''t look too good. As a Sect Leader of the Hua Ding Sect, their might had always been the same, but because of the three twists and turns in their marriage, especially today''s changes. Senior brother Sect Leader, don''t blame this old man, that Ranking Stone is even older than you and me, the ancestors all left their marks on it. The Sixth Elder pointed to the huge boulder in the middle of the Martial Arts Practice Grounds with a look of reverence on his face as he spoke. As long as Chen Fan can trigger the ancestor''s imprint within the Ranking Stone, not only will this old man acknowledge the marriage, in the future, if anyone dares to say a word no, they will be the real bastard! The Sixth Elder was a straightforward person. Black was black, white was white. He had decided that a marriage was not in accordance with the rules, so he had to publicly protest. and even made such an extreme suggestion. In the past thousand years, the Ranking Stone had only been activated four or five times, by all the strong profound practitioners. However, there was no doubt that the Ranking Stone did indeed contain the mark of the Martial Ancestor, and it had not rotted away even after ten thousand years. If by some coincidence, it really could be activated. Wu, Sixth Elder is right. Since we do not have the qualifications to make such a decision, let the Patriarch decide. With that said, all the disciples nodded their heads in acknowledgement, if the Ranking Stone was on the side of Chen Fan and the rest, then they would have nothing to say. This stone has nothing to do with our Qing Xuan Sect, Chen Fan has never even heard of it before, how can it be considered as the evaluation standard?! Zhao Xu could not help but retort, while Qin Sheng was at the side. He was angered, and smashed the ground beneath his feet with his fist. Protector Qin, what are you doing, you are deliberately causing trouble for my Hua Ding Sect, you have to pay a price for this! Another elder reprimanded. Let the Sect Leader decide. Seeing that a conflict was unavoidable, the Great Elder sighed and tried to smooth things over. Chen Fan, the Ranking Stone is something that my Hua Ding Sect''s ancestor left behind. Although it represents the highest will, you are not a disciple of the sect, so you don''t need to actually activate the imprint. As a Sect Leader, Nangong Yi was a head taller than a few elders. There was no need to call him a reverend, and even a fool would be able to see how overbearing Chen Fan''s position was. I''ll try and see, maybe your ancestor will agree. Chen Fan who had been silent the entire time nodded his head, and walked towards the huge boulder with a disapproving expression. He could see very clearly that there was definitely someone behind the scenes. Moreover, it was at least an elder-level expert who was unwittingly adding fuel to the fire, encouraging the disciples who did not understand what was going on to make a ruckus. However, he didn''t expect that after Xia Yan''s group suffered defeat all over the place, the Ranking Stone would be their final trump card. Alien Minister Chen, can you do it? With that asked, Zhao Xu no longer held any hope. It''s okay, his performance is already outstanding enough, but he''s adding honor to my Qing Xuan Sect. Qin Sheng tried to think of a way to report the situation to Lan Yu. The outcome of today''s trial was far beyond expectations, and had greatly increased the spirit of his Qing Xuan Sect. No one, including the two of them, believed Chen Fan. They only thought that he was infuriated, and had no choice but to bite the bullet. Facing the mocking and scornful gaze, Chen Fan reached out his hand and touched the rock, but did not use any Spiritual Energy s, and just fumbled around. Haha, this fool, it seems like he has never heard of the Imprint of Tranquility Stone before. He doesn''t even know how to activate the imprint. An ear-piercing sneer sounded out, and the source of the sneer was Lu Ping, who had been defeated by Chen Fan. Even though the Ranking Stone contained the imprint of the ancestor, it was usually hidden inside the stone, and had to be activated by a Spiritual Energy to be able to lure it out. Chen Fan, I will rest for a while with Qin Sheng first, but we have something to discuss with you later. No one was surprised, Nangong Yi was the first to persuade them. However, at this time, a strange scene occurred. The Stable Stone that was still standing up suddenly emitted bursts of white light. It was extremely blazing, as if it was the sun itself. It was so bright that one couldn''t even open their eyes. [What the hell is going on?] Could it be that the ancestor''s imprint had really materialized? This is impossible, without my Hua Ding Sect as a guide, it is impossible. The entire audience was instantly petrified. No one expected Chen Fan to succeed, and with such a vulgar method, he basically did not use the Spiritual Energy. Even the few elders were stunned. This kind of strange phenomenon had actually surpassed their common sense, and had never happened before. In a moment, all the light beams rushed into Chen Fan''s body and the Storing Stone returned to its previous calm state. There was no change to him at all, as if everything that had just happened was just an illusion. However, no one could fake the pressure that was unique to the ancestor. Furthermore, the tens of thousands of disciples could clearly see it. There was indeed a divine light that appeared, and it quickly calmed down. Astonishment, surprise, surprise, all sorts of thoughts lingered in his mind as he wrote them down on the small faces. Countless gazes gathered at Chen Fan''s side, along with the plain and unadorned Ranking Stone. Now, what more do you want to say? Chen Fan asked calmly. Ever since he had stepped onto the training grounds, he had predicted that something like this would happen. Cough *, cough, Sixth Elder, this matter shall end here. From now on, our sect does not wish for any other similar incidents to occur. Nangong Yi''s words reminded the surrounding elders, so they shouldn''t do anything behind his back. Did you hear that,? Chen Fan is my respected guest of Hua Ding Sect, and he even obtained the approval of my ancestor. The Sixth Elder''s attitude changed very quickly, but it was still consistent with his personality. After the incident, Chen Fan rejected Nangong Yi''s invitation and returned to his residence. There were some issues that he needed more time to settle, and they were even more important than a marriage alliance. Alien Minister Chen, what a god! Heh, to think that the Ranking Stone of Hua Ding Sect would actually be that obedient. Zhao Xu shouted excitedly, he urgently wanted to know the reason. Xu''er, don''t disturb the Alien Minister Chen for now, let''s let him rest first. After fighting for such a long time, he must be exhausted. Qin Sheng could tell that Chen Fan was a little absent-minded, and immediately led Zhao Xu away, taking the initiative to leave the room. Those that should not be asked naturally could not be asked, but were instead a kind of burden. After sitting down, for the first time since Chen Fan had recovered, his heart was in turmoil. There was a distinct difference in expression in his eyes. Weng! * The Dao Burning Furnace floated in the air and after it was activated once again, there were obvious changes to it. The purple light was mixed with some golden lines and looked even more mysterious. Little Cao, what secrets are you hiding here? Looking at the abnormal phenomenon that appeared on the Dao Burning Furnace in front of him, Chen Fan sank into deep thought. It was only a short while ago that he realized that the name of this Hua Ding Sect had actually been changed. He had long since said that this Sect of Dragon and Fire had an impressive background, and had a lot to do with Chen Fan''s third disciple. The reason why Qing Xuan Sect had originally chosen to marry someone with the power of the Hua Ding Sect was because of that founder of the sect. After Cao Rui established his Qing Xuan Sect, he once visited various places in the Southern Region and unintentionally bumped into a peerless beauty called ''old lady''. She was precisely the Heaven''s Pride Girl from the Hua Ding Sect. And due to the influence of Cao Rui, his Qing Xuan Sect had helped him quite a bit, even the former himself had left behind many methods for them to guard against potential emergencies. Cao Rui had intentionally set up a backup trick within that huge boulder on the martial ground. Over the past thousand years, he had shown off his might many times, and he had even rescued the entire sect from being exterminated, becoming a miracle due to the Hua Ding Sect. He really did not expect Little Cao to be such a romantic person. His cultivation was not very good, and he was spreading his branches and leaves everywhere. Thinking back to ten thousand years ago, Chen Fan also sighed deeply. He had taught Cao Rui the least, but he had unintentionally met with his legacy one after another. If Nangong Yi or Lan Yu were to hear these words, he would probably fight to the death with Chen Fan ¡­ However, Chen Fan was puzzled to find that there was still another source of energy inside the Ranking Stone that was related to the Dao Burning Furnace. After entering his body, it did not stay for long before returning to the furnace. Even now, when the Dao Burning Furnace that had been sealed for a long time had been activated, Chen Fan still did not feel the slightest bit of change. He couldn''t just replace him on the martial arts practice field like that, right? Chen Fan guessed, he never would have thought that there would be a day where he would spend so much effort to figure out Little Cao''s intentions. He tried his best to recall every single detail. During his conversation with Little Cao before he escaped into the earth, he didn''t notice the figure of an old man that appeared in the air above the Dao Burning Furnace. He had white hair and a white beard, and was wearing a simple white robe. He looked quite old, but his appearance was that of a soul. Clearly, he wasn''t a corporeal body. Who are you? Chen Fan secretly raised his guard, he had no impression of this old fellow at all. C26 Moreover, the Dao Burning Furnace was refined by Little Cao with his own eyes, it had nothing to do with the former''s aura. I am the god of this Dao Furnace, you can call me Deer God. A white-robed old man said. The god of furnaces? Chen Fan was completely confused. No, no, no. Although I was born from the furnace, Deer God was more pleasing to the ear. The old man corrected Chen Fan, and even made a few gestures with his hand in the air. The deer of the elk is not the furnace. No, where did you put it? Chen Fan had no interest in worrying about what this fellow was called. His background seemed to be even more important. I am a Heavenly Dao Fragment, and can be considered a part of the Heavenly Dao. Seeing that Chen Fan was still confused, the Deer God could only introduce him and ask helplessly. Have you heard of the catastrophe? Uh. Chen Fan nodded his head, it was something that happened after he fell asleep and he had gotten to know it after his recovery. At that time, for some reason, the Heavenly Dao suddenly collapsed. Earthquakes occurred frequently on the continent, and the torrents of water flowed violently. Meteors were even more concentrated than raindrops, and it could be understood that many large sects were destroyed overnight. At a critical moment, in order to protect themselves, the three forces on the continent joined forces. The top experts of the human, barbarian, and demon races were all gathered together to fight against the Heavenly Dao. Only after paying an unimaginably heavy price did he manage to bring it back to its rightful place and return it back to its normal path. This was the peace that it had experienced for thousands of years. Cao Rui was one of the leaders of the Human Clan, and thus, the dao principles he left behind still exist today, although they are declining. During the calamity five thousand years ago, Cao Rui had joined forces with the strong to save the situation. You mean, Little Cao added the Heavenly Dao Fragment to the Dao Burning Furnace? Chen Fan just regained his senses, but he felt that something was amiss. He did not seem to see Little Cao''s name in any of the ancient books he saw. Listening to this, Little Cao was initially a leader, but how come I don''t have any impression of him? That is Ancient Saint Ming Rui, who would call him by his full name ¡­ Deer God rolled his eyes. You really are Cao Rui''s biological master. Uh, not bad. Chen Fan suddenly realized something. No wonder he felt that this feeling was a little familiar. The disciples that he had taught had all achieved something, so it could be said that his master was proud of him. The boss and the second brother each had their own heaven and earth, so they had to visit the Demon Clan when they were free. Chen Fan subconsciously recalled his past, it would be a lie to say that he did not miss the past, the more it was like this, the faster he had to speed up his recovery. Big brother, don''t always call me Little Cao, alright? You''re making me lower my status like this. Deer God was helpless. I''m older than you, how about this, Cao Rui calls me Elder Lu, and you follow the lead of a generation, and casually hit Uncle Lu. It sounded as if this old fellow had suffered a little, making Chen Fan feel speechless. That won''t do, Little Cao created you, and he is also my disciple, if we count it this way, Chen Fan counted with his fingers, and laughed: You should be my grandson''s generation. Deer God:... In terms of origin, there was probably no one on the entire continent that could compare to him. He was born into a heaven''s law, and was born into a heaven''s law, even if he was one of the most outstanding geniuses. No one can create me. With your lowly Human Clan, as long as I am able to release even the slightest bit of your anger, the entire continent will tremble. Deer God said proudly, these words were not wrong, it sounded exaggerated, and was indeed the truth. So what if the Heavenly Dao was in chaos? Wasn''t it still being suppressed? Chen Fan''s tone was relaxed, choking to death with a single sentence. Deer God:... It could be said that the Deer God was a living encyclopedia. All sorts of thoughts and insights were included in this book, and compared to Chen Fan, a ten-thousand-year old monster, they were only slightly better. Obviously, he was more clear about the latter''s identity. Perhaps when he came out from the Dao Burning Furnace, he had already identified her. I have to read more books, Demon Clan must be involved with my boss and the rest. Chen Fan said to himself. Seems like after he fell asleep, Little Cao still did a few things. Since the experts of this world were involved, he was certain that the other two disciples were one of them. A familiar title appeared in his mind. Before Cao Rui died, he had asked me to take good care of you, so that my life wouldn''t be harmed by others. Deer God regained his calm demeanor, and he had the look of an otherworldly expert. Little Cao was able to think of using Heavenly Dao Fragment s to perfect the magical equipment, and did what I did not do before. Chen Fan did not bother with that fellow. Although some of his own disciples should not be in this world, they were all born old and sick. Moreover, their bodies had just disappeared. In order to have a chance to see their Master and disciples again, the three disciples all had the Reincarnation Seal on their bodies. One day, when Chen Fan regained his peak condition and reopened the Reincarnation Seal, there would naturally be three great ultimate experts in this world. Be careful, someone wants to deal with you. Deer God was not amused by this. After he finished speaking, he disappeared, probably returning to the space inside the furnace. Hm? Without waiting for Chen Fan to figure out what was going on, a bang came from outside. The wooden door was closed, and Protector Qin and Zhao Xu had also disappeared. Immediately afterwards, a wave of cold Qi descended into the room, the entire courtyard was started to be covered in ice, which quickly extended towards Chen Fan. All the junk along the way had been frozen into statues, and by the time he arrived in front of Yun Che, the surrounding temperature had already fallen to the point that even Spiritual Energy s could not emit any air. The steam from his breath fell down in an instant, and even his mouth could not close. The dense cold air seemed to be continuing to expand. Get lost. The cold air in the room seemed to have slowed down a bit as he let out a few words. It suddenly floated in the air and pointed the tip of the sword straight at Chen Fan''s forehead. Judging from the intensity of the cold energy that he had absorbed earlier, the power of this strike could easily shatter the void, and could even annihilate an area of a hundred zhang in radius. In fact, the ice sword wasn''t very useful, so by right, when the cold Qi gathered, Chen Fan should have already lost his life force. However, the person who secretly attacked would have never expected that a mere Qi Condensation cultivator would possess such an indestructible body. Even the real 10,000 Year Ice Marrow might not be effective, not to mention that such a clumsy cooling effect could only change the environment of this courtyard. C27 Within the Hua Ding Sect, no one can hurt me. Chen Fan was filled with confidence, he waved his hands at the ice sword, causing both of his arms to stiffen, but he was still unable to move. The person in the dark clearly saw this scene. The surrounding cold energy quickly surged, and the ice sword even directly stabbed in. Within a short moment, he would be able to report to the Underworld. However, such a short distance had turned into a chasm that was difficult to cross. A mysterious energy wrapped Chen Fan up, and his entire body started to shine with a faint light. Furthermore, there was not the slightest bit of Spiritual Energy''s fluctuations. It was simply unknown where it came from, or how long it had been surrounded. Pretending to be ghosts, damn it! An image of a Spiritual Consciousness appeared in his mind, clearly filled with anger. He thought that he had been played by Chen Fan. Even more ice swords gathered, completely isolating themselves from the outside world. The cold air in all directions turned into a substance, its sharpness terrifying. Looking at the ice swords that were pointing at him from different directions, if it was anyone else, they would have been scared to death already. Chen Fan''s face was calm, but there was a hint of curiosity in his eyes. "Whiz!" The sound of ten ice swords piercing through the air rang out. Their power was at least a hundred times stronger than before. The wooden door was forced open a crack, but it still continued to expand. In other words, there was a high chance that the technique he used to seal his aura would be ineffective as well. In other words, there was a high chance that it would alarm Nangong Yi and the other Hua Ding Sect experts. However, as long as they could kill Chen Fan, they would not care about the people hiding in the darkness anymore. He raised his left arm and made a chopping motion. However, an even more shocking scene appeared. For some unknown reason, the temperature of the air suddenly shot up. The entire room seemed to be filled with lava. The cold Qi had disappeared, and the ice sword had also disappeared without a trace. All of this was because of Chen Fan''s action of waving his hand. Under the protection of that layer of fluorescent light, his body was not affected in the slightest. I let the flood wash over me. I stood there without moving. Even my hair didn''t show any signs of burning. He suddenly had a feeling that the surrounding area had all become his domain, and that he could do whatever he wanted with just a thought. How did you manage to activate my Hua Ding Sect''s Sect Protection Array?! An illusory voice rang out, carrying obvious fear and astonishment. It completely exceeded the person''s expectations. If not for Chen Fan''s aura being constantly locked down, he even suspected that some elder had changed his figure. Just as the temperature in the room started to change, they could clearly feel the source of power coming from the Formation Pattern beneath their feet. If even I am unable to control this formation, then no one in your Hua Ding Sect will have the qualifications to do so. Chen Fan replied. After a long while, no sound could be heard. That person had already left with great confusion. Qin Sheng and Zhao Xu laughed and talked as they pushed open the wooden door. The two of them did not know what happened, so in order to not disturb Chen Fan, they went out for a while. After easily ending an interlude that could not be called a crisis, Chen Fan fell into deep thought. But it was not because of the Ice Sword, so he had an even more important consideration. All sorts of indications indicated that after he had revived, he should not have gone to the Qing Xuan Sect. That was the wrong decision. From the Ranking Stone to the Dao Burning Furnace, the sudden appearance of the Deer God, and his control over the Sect Protection Array just now, these were all without a doubt Little Cao''s handiwork. In order for Chen Fan to recover, Little Cao had meticulously prepared everything. In a slightly exaggerated manner, he had basically handed over the entire Hua Ding Sect to Chen Fan. There was an Ancestral Seal in the Ranking Stone, the absolute power of the Sect Protection Array, coupled with the help of the Deer God, in this region, Chen Fan at least had the power to fight against Nangong Yi! However, Little Cao definitely knew that his master had Ancient Token of Grand Master in her hands, and that it could only be used with Qing Xuan Sect. So why did he so painstakingly lay his hands on it after the Hua Ding Sect had been set up? If Lan Yu and the others changed their minds and didn''t send Chen Fan to propose marriage, he would never get involved. Chen Fan, are you alright? Unexpectedly, the Sixth Elder rushed into the yard. With a glance, he noticed the former was safely sitting on the praying mat without harm. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief, and the anxious expression on his face quickly withdrew. Someone has come to assassinate me. Chen Fan said indifferently, he did not take this matter to heart. Ah? How could this be? The Sixth Elder''s complexion greatly changed. He could tell that this was a bit unexpected. Coincidentally, he detected some abnormal fluctuations from Chen Fan''s side, which was why he rushed over to check. Nuo, this is exactly the thing that belongs to the power level at the peak of the Nascent Infant. With a flip of his hand, Chen Fan still left a small portion of the Ice Sword''s remains and gave it to the Sixth Elder. Although it was possible that the mastermind would rush over immediately and eliminate him, he didn''t think that the old man would do that. Today, in the Martial Arts Practice Grounds, he had already thoroughly understood the Sixth Elder. He was indeed a man of character, straightforward to the point that he was frightening. Not only could he refute Nangong Yi in front of tens of thousands of disciples, he could also immediately admit his fault the moment he saw the ancestor''s imprint. Furthermore, he did not hesitate in the slightest. Don''t worry, this old man will report to Sect Leader right now and will definitely give you an explanation. Sixth Elder quickly left again, leaving the extremely confused Qin Sheng and Zhao Xu behind. Alien Minister Chen, were you just assassinated? They had only gone out for a quarter of an hour. They did not expect such a huge incident to happen. If it were not for the Sixth Elder''s arrival, they would not have known about it. It''s nothing. He''s just a nobody, there''s no need to worry about him. Chen Fan returned to the house, but he had already made a guess. The next day, Zhao Xu ran over excitedly. and the Great Clan Elder wanted to see him to discuss the marriage. However, Chen Fan was very clear that this was definitely going to be a Hongmen Banquet. The upper echelons of any sect would never allow such a thing to happen. Unexpectedly, an outsider was able to control their own Sect Protection Array. The guy who made a move last night probably had a hidden meaning behind it too. Originally, he wanted to kill Chen Fan and get it over and over with. In comparison, the fact that he was assassinated was not that important ¨C in any case, he did not die. Inside the palace, all the elders of the Hua Ding Sect were present. They sat on both sides and the energy within their bodies was faintly discernable. Although all of them had white hair, they were all filled with vitality. Although he didn''t know what cultivation base these old fellows had, they were definitely top experts of the Southern Domain. No matter where they went, they would always be honored guests. Chen Fan, can you tell me more about the Sect Protection Array? Nangong Yi still maintained a calm mind. C28 Hm? What does it have to do with the Sect Protection Array, this guy clearly did something to the Ranking Stone. The few elders were stunned. Previously, they had only told them that they had important matters to discuss, but did not think that it would have anything to do with the Sect Protection Array. Is that what you mean? After saying that, Chen Fan once again lightly waved his hand, and a large number of patterns emerged from beneath his feet. As if they had received some sort of summons, after the Formation Pattern lit up, they turned into a figure like lightning and appeared in front of him. It looked to have the same appearance as Chen Fan. Chen Fan, what are you doing! Bold, quickly stop, or don''t blame me for being merciless! One after another, the elderly voices shouted out, causing the faces of all the elders in the hall to change. As elders, they naturally understood the meaning behind those Formation Pattern s as well as how dangerous Chen Fan''s simple action of transforming into a human silhouette was. This hall is the core of the entire Sect Protection Array, where our sect can control the entire sect from top to bottom, and cover an area of a thousand kilometers with a single thought. Nangong Yi had obviously anticipated this scene long ago, as he spoke out with a faint voice, but the shock in his heart wasn''t any less than that of the other elders. The fact that you are able to evoke a phenomenon from the core of the formation is definitely not something a brute can do. As the great protective formation of the entire Hua Ding Sect, it was filled with tens of thousands of veined patterns beneath the ground. However, it was only within this great hall that it was the true center and core. Similarly, Nangong Yi was highly suspicious of Chen Fan''s actions last night. Maybe because he had some kind of forbidden weapon, it only caused some Formation Pattern s to tremble. However, the latter had used the most direct method to personally prove his control over the Sect Protection Array. This Spell Formation indeed has some cause and effect on me, and is destined for me to come to the Hua Ding Sect for this trip. Chen Fan clenched his hands again, and all the light disappeared, and all the lines dimmed as well. He began to believe that these were the backup plans that Little Cao had set up beforehand. Step by step, he helped Little Cao protect himself and helped him return to the peak. What was going on? Other than the Great Clan Elder and Nangong Yi, the other elders were facing Chen Fan as if they were facing a great enemy, as if they were looking at a monster. The Sect Protection Array was closely related to the safety of the Hua Ding Sect, only the sect''s guards and experts above had the qualifications to come into contact with the formation diagram and then practice the activation method. Most importantly, in the hall guarded by the Sect Leader s, if they wanted to stir the Formation Pattern, at least two elders would be able to do so. Even if Chen Fan had made such a simple illusion, it was impossible for him, a mere Qi Condensation cultivator, to accomplish such a feat. Then let go of the assassination? Chen Fan once again threw out a huge piece of information. A few elders looked at each other in confusion. The sect will naturally give you a satisfactory explanation, but before that, Nangong Yi''s voice raised by a few levels, revealing the dignity of a person in power. You need to explain why you have such an understanding of my Hua Ding Sect''s Sect Protection Array. Ever since Nangong Yi had taken control of the Hua Ding Sect, he had not heard of such a strange thing happening, and none of the previous generations of Sect Leader had recorded anything about it. Chen Fan, what do you know about this, and how does this have anything to do with my Hua Ding Sect? The third elder shouted in anger, but he couldn''t suppress his anger. He couldn''t just sit there and watch this disaster happen without doing anything. Otherwise, this old man will personally ascend to the Qing Xuan Sect''s Pindu Peak and ask Sect Leader Lan Yu what exactly is the reason for this! The Sect Protection Array was simply too important to the Hua Ding Sect; it was almost like a lifeblood existence. But now, it had been casually instigated by a young junior and it did not even belong to the Hua Ding Sect. How could they not panic? You don''t need to be so flustered. If I really want to do something, why would I come here and be questioned by these old fellows? Chen Fan''s tone never changed from before he entered, it was just a small scene. After so long, I have yet to kill anyone. This matter definitely cannot be fooled, or else I will solve it my own way. Hearing this, the few elders in the hall all paled. It was only then that they found out about the incident that happened within the Hua Ding Sect, and almost led to a murder case. After taking care of the killer, I will naturally explain the reason for the Sect Protection Array. Otherwise, there won''t be a need for this hall to exist anymore. Chen Fan snapped his fingers. In his entire life, there had never been someone who forced him to do anything, and Hua Ding Sect could not bear such an outcome. Although these old fellows should be able to suppress the Sect Protection Array if they used all their strength, looking at the strength that Chen Fan had just displayed, destroying an area of fifty kilometers shouldn''t be a problem. This was also their greatest fear. This was the foundation of their own Sect, they could not afford to be shaken. As for the matter of the marriage, I can agree to it. In addition, I can help you find the assassin from last night and let you handle it as you wish. Nangong Yi''s heart skipped a beat. He knew that this was the best time to take advantage of this situation to pacify Chen Fan. If you have any other conditions, you can just say them out. The Great Clan Elder added in, and very wisely apologized, in case he provoked Chen Fan again. F * ck, I''ve already said it before, whoever dares to go against Chen Fan will go against this old man, who the hell is this bastard! The Sixth Elder stood up and shouted while cursing. Other than the marriage alliance, I have no other requests. The allure of your Hua Ding Sect treasury isn''t particularly great. Chen Fan said with incomparable calmness, and unintentionally, a large amount of anger was transferred into his body. He did not intend to give up any opportunity to recover his cultivation. These old fellows in the hall all had their own ulterior motives, but they were definitely suppressing their anger. Especially with the Sixth Elder as the leader, if it wasn''t for the circumstances, Chen Fan would have directly slapped him twice, he might have been able to break through Qi Disciple level 7 in one go. There is a limit to our sect''s patience, so don''t push it too far. Nangong Yi said coldly. In his opinion, or rather, almost all normal people''s thoughts were the same. No matter what fortuitous encounters they had, they had obtained it. After pondering for a moment, Chen Fan decided to take a step back. There was no need to care about all these. If there were no surprises, then the mastermind behind it should be in the main hall. Even if he were to find it, it wouldn''t be of much use, so it was better to just leave it at that. As the sound of his voice faded, the entire hall fell into silence. Regarding this marriage, there were actually quite a few people who were opposed to it. This could be seen from the situation of the martial arts practice field. It was possible that some clan elders took to the extremities and secretly sent people to murder Chen Fan. This way, Qing Xuan Sect would probably never mention of this ever again. Have you heard of Cao Rui, one of his descendant from a branch family once said in the Wilderness ¡­ Chen Fan threw out an excuse he had prepared a long time ago. According to him, he was an orphan saved by Cao Rui''s descendants. He had lived in the Barbarian Domain for so many years, one old and one young. C29 Until the old man passed away half a year ago, only then did Chen Fan leave and return to the true Human World. However, before that, he had already known about all of Cao Rui''s remnants, and he was very clear about all of his life''s matters. Even though he had studied the Sect Protection Array for a period of time, and had even received instructions from the old man, he was not restricted by his cultivation. So you are the descendant of Ancient Saint Ming Rui. Nangong Yi revealed a surprised expression, this title was not for show. There were no longer any Ancient Saint s left in this world, if they could confirm Chen Fan''s identity, it would probably shake the entire Southern region. Liar, how can a dignified descendant of the Ancient Saint live in that kind of place? The fifth elder asked doubtfully. Any random person could call themselves the descendant of the Ancient Saint, wouldn''t the world be in chaos? Hehe, from what I know, Cao Rui is not the ancestor of Hua Ding Sect. Chen Fan did not think so, and stopped these old guys with a single sentence. And I think I don''t need to elaborate any further on the reason why Qing Xuan Sect chose to marry you all. It was true that Cao Rui had a close relationship with one of the Heaven''s Pride ladies of the Hua Ding Sect, and had helped her multiple times. However, all of this was a secret that had existed for thousands of years. Only the higher ups of the Hua Ding Sect knew of this and they would never tell anyone else. After confirming that there were no secrets, Chen Fan''s words had now come out of his mouth, confirming undoubtedly that he was the successor of the Ancient Saint. No wonder he was able to summon the ancestor''s imprint on the martial stage. With this layer of relationship, the Ancient Saint''s aura would not change even after a million years. Nangong Yi secretly guessed, and gradually believed Chen Fan''s words, or else he really wouldn''t be able to explain everything. Is this what that senior told you? Unconsciously, Nangong Yi had already brought a name for himself. Any descendant of the Ancient Saint was worthy of respect. Just because they relied on Cao Rui''s protection, during that period of time, their Hua Ding Sect was always called the Skirt Gang, and they relied on a woman to raise their entire Sect. Cao Rui could not bear to have his old friend be humiliated, so he decided to speak about it in public. He took action behind the scenes 7 times, respectively exterminating five forces that were hostile to Hua Ding Sect. Thinking about Cao Rui''s life and all these rotten grains filled with old sesame seeds, Chen Fan could be said to be extremely talkative. I also know that the founder of your Hua Ding Sect s cultivation level isn''t that high, it''s just that it''s more convenient to boast about it to the outside world. Alright, alright, it''s all in the past, there''s no need to mention it anymore. The Great Clan Elder cut Chen Fan off, and continued to speak. The history records of the Hua Ding Sect were directly written to him, it was truly shameful. I''ll go back and rest first. You guys can discuss how to deal with the killer. At the very least, I can feel a bit better when I present the scapegoat. Chen Fan heaved a sigh of relief, and said the last sentence, this was the last thing he needed to do at Hua Ding Sect, three days later, I want to see Holy Maiden. In view of the various methods Little Cao had left in this area, as well as the strange illness that had been rumored to have occurred in the Holy Maiden, Chen Fan''s intuition told him that there was another story behind this. Nangong Yi: "... The group of elders looked at each other in dismay. Originally, they wanted to denounce this conversation, but one after another, explosive news came out. Even with their hundred years of cultivation, they were somewhat stunned. When Chen Fan returned, Qin Sheng and Zhao Xu immediately surrounded him with unpleasant expressions. Although the former had summoned the ancestor''s imprint in the arena, it was clear that the people from Hua Ding Sect were not willing to marry each other, and had even used a method like assassination. He had already predicted that there would be some trouble this time, and that the marriage proposal wouldn''t be completed peacefully. However, in Qin Sheng''s plans, he would at most be humiliated, and it would be fine if he did not listen. As for whether or not it would succeed, it was not something he could consider. In any case, it was still the title of Protector, so it would be difficult for him to advance in his entire life. In the end, they did not expect the process to be so complicated that it was scary. First, they were left out for a few days, and then they brought up the test. In the face of such a farce, and from the rumors the two of them had heard within the Hua Ding Sect, the majority of the disciples were also opposed to it. If something really happened to Chen Fan, the marriage between the two sects might just turn into a bubble. What exactly did Hua Ding Sect''s Sect Leader mean? After such a thing happened, he couldn''t possibly still be unclear, right? Zhao Xu was a little dissatisfied. Ever since the strange test, he had been very dissatisfied with the elders of the Hua Ding Sect. Such a good marriage alliance would benefit both sides, so why couldn''t they put on airs? Without a strong backer, no matter how beautiful one''s battle record was, it was useless. Chen Fan said calmly, he had seen such things too many times. If they went back several thousand years ago, without Cao Rui''s permission, the Cyan Profound practitioners would have chosen to form an alliance with the Hua Ding Sect. The disparity in strength between the two sides was truly too great. Alien Minister Chen, what does that Great Clan Elder mean, he can''t be denying our request directly, right? Qin Sheng asked carefully, afraid that he would hear some bad news from Chen Fan''s mouth. The fact that they took such huge risks at all costs was proof of the differences among the higher ups of Hua Ding Sect. Moreover, they thought that those fellows with high Qing Xuan Sect who were willing to do so were very strong. I nearly died here, how can they be indifferent ¡­ Chen Fan truthfully told Qin Sheng everything that happened in the great hall, so of course he automatically left out the relevant information on the Sect Protection Array. To sum it up, the strongest supporter in Hua Ding Sect was definitely Nangong Yi, there was no doubt about this. After a slight pause, Chen Fan made his own judgement. This kind of scheming ten thousand years ago, he already stopped playing. He was trying his best to persuade the other elders, but his Hua Ding Sect was a little bit better, so even if there were some conflicts, Sect Leader would still have the authority to speak up. It was said in an obscure manner, but it was said in an unspoken manner. Sometimes, words were nothing as long as the Sect Leader was able to maintain his consciousness. For example, the Qing Xuan Sect was still divided into several big factions. If he were to continue wasting time like this, he would be dragged to his death one day. Phew, that''s good. Qin Sheng heaved a sigh of relief, otherwise, he would not be able to report anything after returning. Tomorrow, I will go see the legendary Holy Maiden. If nothing happens, I can return the day after tomorrow. If not for his curiosity towards Nangong Xuan, Chen Fan would never have been the least bit interested in this kind of marriage proposal. Sigh, if only I had a strong cultivation, why would I care about their expressions. Zhao Xu''s face was filled with grief, he even felt that the assassination attempt would spread to his body soon enough. C30 Chen Fan turned to look at Zhao Xu, and asked with hidden meaning. Do you want to be stronger? In this entire period of time from the start of the Qing Xuan Sect, this brat''s attitude towards Chen Fan had always been pretty good, the latter''s impression was even more so. The entire sect mocked and ridiculed Chen Fan. To be able to maintain his goodwill, Zhao Xu was worthy of the reward. Who doesn''t want to be a son of a b * tch? Zhao Xu was startled, almost everyone would have such an answer. Fine, I''ll help you break through to the Body Building Stage. It just so happened that there were already resources available for Chen Fan to use at the Hua Ding Sect. Even if it was at the Qing Xuan Sect, he had the intention, but did not have the ability. What? Zhao Xu was overjoyed, but he quickly recovered and thought that Chen Fan was joking. Currently, he was still struggling at the eighth level of Qi Refinement and hadn''t shown any signs of breaking through for half a year, let alone that huge chasm. Impossible, Alien Minister Chen. You are still at the fifth level of the Qi Refinement realm, you are overestimating yourself. According to Zhao Xu''s plan, he would take out two years to stabilize his Foundation Building Stage. This speed was already not slow for ordinary people. Don''t worry, I have my own ways. The drawback of forcefully raising my cultivation level won''t appear. Chen Fan was full of confidence. If he could not even do this much, then he might as well not think about returning to his peak state. Otherwise, we would have to wait until we return to Qing Xuan Sect. After all, this isn''t our territory. Zhao Xu said. Not long ago, Zang Gang had just been assassinated, and the three of them were not in a good situation. What, you don''t believe me? Chen Fan was not surprised, he replied very calmly. There is only one chance, will I ever say it again? Master... Zhao Xu sent a questioning gaze over. Of course, Qin Sheng thought that he was just bragging when he said those words. After being silent for a moment, Qin Sheng nodded his head in the end. Let''s try it, for Alien Minister Chen to be able to cause such a commotion in the Hua Ding Sect, he must have some methods as well. Chen Fan: "... That said, it did not sound pleasant to the ears. Protector Qin, please temporarily leave, and help me watch over them from the outside, don''t let anyone break in. He made a gesture of invitation. Originally, he wanted to let this guy watch from the sidelines, but his words were too unpleasant. Do I need to do something? Thinking about Chen Fan''s miraculous actions, Zhao Xu started to faintly look forward to it. With a gentle wave of his hand, the Daoist shaped figure that appeared in the great hall appeared once more. However, the brightness of the light only increased. Don''t have any other thoughts, just think of this as you are, and don''t resist it. Chen Fan''s voice transmitted into Zhao Xu''s mind, and his entire person calmed down along with it, allowing that light figure to enter his body. Immediately after, Zhao Xu''s body started to exude a faint fluorescent light, making him look somewhat sacred and solemn. It flowed through the meridians in his entire body like a surging river. Moreover, it was extremely calm and was almost the same as his usual cultivation. However, the purity of this energy was not on the same level as the spiritual energy he had absorbed before. Every time he refined a strand of it, it was comparable to half a day of bitter cultivation. I will guide ''them'' to your dantian. Just enjoy them and be a bystander. Chen Fan warned repeatedly. The taboo thing about increasing physical strength was that the main character would have other thoughts. If the host had even the slightest bit of distracting thoughts, it would cause a lot of trouble. Well, I don''t think about anything. In fact, Zhao Xu''s mind was only filled with excitement now. He watched helplessly as the number of Spiritual Energy s in his meridians increased exponentially. The shadow had completely fused into his body, spreading out to the depths of every pore. Even his meridians had become much tougher after being forged. Finally, it rushed towards his dantian. The method Chen Fan used was actually very simple. As long as he stood on the ground of the Hua Ding Sect, he could mobilize almost limitless amounts of energy. This human shaped figure was a good example, but it was not directly channeled into Zhao Xu. Step by step, he expanded his meridians, borrowing the power of the Sect Protection Array to slowly refine it. Controlling it within a rather oppressive range, he quietly increased the strength of the virus within his body. Although the whole process was slow, it was also the safest. It would not cause Zhao Xu any pain. Sigh, every day things get harder and harder to help others reach the Foundation Establishment stage. Chen Fan sighed in his heart. He had to admit this fact, he was truly a piece of trash. However, he had only crossed two realms, and it was even the lowest level of cultivation, yet it had taken him an hour to prepare for it. This made him somewhat angry. If this was before, even if a Nascent Soul Stage Ranker was directly created, it would only take a few breaths of time. From the moment Chen Fan appeared on the first day of his Qing Xuan Sect, there were too many suspicious points on his body that he couldn''t explain. But he is a reverend, a level higher than his master. I don''t dare to say it, much less ask him. Next, he might feel some soreness and pain, but he didn''t need to care too much about it. It would be soon. With that, Chen Fan grabbed Zhao Xu''s temple with both hands. If not for the fact that the aura he gave off was extremely gentle, he would have thought that Zhao Xu really wanted to die. The Spiritual Consciousness that came from this ten thousand year old monster would release a portion of its Zifu Space after its cultivation level had increased. Of course, he was still far from being able to do it. Chen Fan decided to continue helping him. With just a wave of his hand, he managed to leave a trace of his Spiritual Consciousness behind. If this was the case, once Zhao Xu grew up, he would be able to smoothly complete the first step of drawing the outline of the Violet Palace. Meridians were the key to the cultivation of Human Clan, and at the same time, it was a layer of formless binding. One needed sufficient external strength to break through it, in order to gain a greater room for growth. By the time Chen Fan''s group of Spiritual Consciousness had retreated, most of the glowing shadow''s energy had also been refined. At the moment, Zhao Xu''s aura had steadily risen to the early stage of Foundation Establishment. Phew, that''s enough. I need to remember to take some time to stabilize myself and not be too superficial during this period of time. Only now did Chen Fan realize that his back was covered in a layer of sweat, which was way too different from what he had expected. Although it was only auxiliary Spell Formation, it was still a burden to his Spiritual Consciousness. The price of using it at such a high level of strength was naturally not easy to bear. Thank you, Alien Minister Chen. With such a huge favor, I don''t even know how to repay you. Zhao Xu saw that the former''s face seemed somewhat pale, and it was obvious that it was because she was helping him to break through, and immediately thanked him repeatedly. C31 Go call your Master in. If he wants to try, I will help both of you. After sending the Buddha to the west, Chen Fan reckoned that they would leave in two or three days. Hehe, you brat, you are just spouting nonsense. How much improvement can you achieve so quickly, let alone breaking through to the next realm? Qin Sheng raised his head and accidentally caught a glimpse of Zhao Xu''s powerful aura. The genuine Body Building Stage cultivator''s face was filled with astonishment, this ¡­ How did he do it? Although he did not feel any existence in the Sect, he still cared a lot about his own disciple, and the energy he used to teach him was also quite a lot. In Qin Sheng''s eyes, although Zhao Xu''s improvement could not be compared with those direct disciples, but to be able to reach Qi Disciple level 8 in two years, was already considered as a small genius. In the end, they had only been in the room for half an hour, and it had already exceeded the amount he had spent in nurturing them in the past few dozen months. How could Qin Sheng not be shocked, and even suspected that something was amiss with his Spiritual Consciousness. Master, this is all because of Alien Minister Chen. Zhao Xu sincerely called her by her title and gave her a ninety degree bow. Protector Qin, allow me to rest for a while. You should be able to go up two more small steps after making some preparations. With that, Chen Fan no longer cared about Qin Sheng''s reaction as he directly closed his eyes and entered a deep recovery state. The Heavenly Heart Formula was still digesting the anger from before. How could I have such a chance?! Qin Sheng immediately suppressed the excitement in his heart, and asked with some curiosity. Xu''er, what method did Alien Minister Chen use just now? Was it an elixir given by the Hua Ding Sect Elder? Even with his experience as a protector, he had not heard of any Spiritual Pill s that could raise one''s cultivation, and there was no need to worry about the strength of the body. No matter what methods were used, at least in Qin Sheng''s knowledge, it was impossible even for Elder Zhang of Sect. It was like a miracle. I don''t know what it''s like, but... He really enjoyed it ¡­ Zhao Xu thought for a long time, and in the end, decided that Chen Fan''s choice of words was the most appropriate. Endless pure energy poured into his body, and he didn''t need to expend any effort at all. It was simply a pipe dream. Who the heck is he ¡­ Staring at Chen Fan who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, Qin Sheng could not help but be shocked. This was definitely not something that a young man could do. Chen Fan was naturally clear about the unusual gaze of the former, but he did not explain anything. He only gave her a chance, whether or not she could grasp onto it would still depend on her own good fortune. With the supply of the Sect Protection Array, the energy that Chen Fan absorbed far surpassed Zhao Xu''s, it was almost three to four times stronger than his own, but he had to take into account the strength of his fleshly body. He had made up his mind that no matter what, he would put body tempering first in the future and cultivate the Diamond Body. At that time, if he came back to Hua Ding Sect, the entire Earth Vein would be used by him. Come, you have the cultivation of the fifth level of the Core Condensating, after today, chase after the Jindan. To Qin Sheng, every word that Chen Fan said sounded like bragging, but he quickly had to admit that he had been slapped in the face. Roughly two hours later, his hands were clenched into fists, and he could feel an unprecedented feeling of strength in his body. Qin Sheng could not help but let out a long howl. He had already stayed in the Core Formation Stage for at least ten years, and the further he went, the more difficult it was to cultivate. He did not expect it to be so simple in Chen Fan''s hands. At the same time, he also clearly felt that his cultivation base was incomparably real, and was not something that could be raised just by a single step. This was the true key. There were many methods to raise one''s strength in a short period of time that would require one to pay a corresponding price. For example, life force and Longevity. He was even a bit worried that he would lose his Aurous Core qualification, and thus be completely cut off from the peak of the Dao. However, the close to sixty years of cultivation experience reminded Qin Sheng that not only had he obtained an even stronger cultivation, his talent had also increased! At the moment, I can''t explain to you what''s going on behind the scenes. In short, I can''t possibly do something like drinking poison to quench my thirst. To others, it might seem like a miracle, but to Chen Fan, it was really nothing. With such a huge advantage, he had saved himself a few years of hard work and cultivation. What was there to talk about in class? Thank you, Alien Minister Chen! Qin Sheng''s doubt towards Chen Fan was gradually replaced by admiration, and he gave a rather sincere bow. This was the proper treatment a protector should give to a senior. There may be a series of actions in the Sect next, you should know what to do. Chen Fan waved his hand and casually opened his mouth. As long as I can settle the matter of the marriage, all other actions have nothing to do with me, haha. Zhao Xu giggled, thinking that he was fine. Xu, when you return to Sect, Master will give you a set of excuses, and at that time, you and I will have to agree. On the other side, Qin Sheng was still immersed in the excitement brought by the increase in his cultivation, but he had already understood and warned Chen Fan in front of him. No matter what, it was a transcendent power like the Qing Xuan Sect. There were tens of thousands of Sect disciples, who had no backers like Qin Sheng, but were able to sit steadily in their positions of protector for many years. Other than cultivation, there was at least one thing that he could be sure of. This fellow''s scheming was definitely not as honest as he usually appeared to be. Protector Qin is truly wise, if there is any more trouble, you can come find me at any time. Chen Fan revealed a satisfied smile, this was what he wanted, his hard work today was not in vain, the people who were trying to win him over had to start one step at a time. Hm? Seeing that his own master was together with the former''s hand, Zhao Xu''s head was filled with fog and he simply did not know what had happened. Hehe, Protector Qin, your precious disciple seems to be a little confused. Chen Fan joked. What a fool you are! Qin Sheng slapped the back of his head hatefully. When you speak of it to the outside world, don''t ever mention that I''m your master again, it''s too embarrassing. With your aptitude, you have only been at the Hua Ding Sect for less than a week, yet you have mysteriously broken through two realms. Only then did Zhao Xu come back to his senses, thinking that he was just too naive, and that if he were to be sold in the future, he wouldn''t even know. As an inner disciple, he would have special examinations every once in a while. If his cultivation broke through so quickly, it might bring about some trouble. Not to mention the fact that his master was being closely watched, he would definitely be followed for a long time. Even a fool would be able to tell that something was amiss. Well, I don''t know what that means, but I''ll just listen to you. Zhao Xu nodded repeatedly, feeling extremely joyful. C32 Although this fellow was usually shrewd and clever, he was still unable to react in times of trouble. On the other hand, Qin Sheng was extremely intelligent and seemed like an honest and honest person who didn''t care about the affairs of the world. I''ll rest a bit longer. There''s a hard battle waiting for me tomorrow. After hearing what Chen Fan said, Qin Sheng and Yue Yang left the room. The room took advantage of the opportunity, but it was not peaceful. An old man''s figure appeared like a ghost. Yet, you are trying to win over these two fellows. This is not something that a dignified Supreme Wu Tian can do. With regards to Chen Fan''s actions just now, it was obvious that Deer God was somewhat surprised. Supreme Wu Tian, I haven''t heard about it in a long time. Chen Fan faintly sighed. That was his title ten thousand years ago. It was just that he had long been submerged in the flood of history. If he were to call himself Supreme Wu Tian now, he would probably be treated as a madman. Don''t be so sad, we are all thugs in the underworld, sooner or later there will be a chance for us to rise again. When he was sealed before the Dao Burning Furnace, he had already exhausted all of his combat power. If not, he would not have been able to stay by Chen Fan''s side. In fact, he was much more miserable than the latter. The Heavenly Dao that was originally able to look down on all living beings had not only fallen into the mortal world, it was now bound to a Dao Burning Furnace as well, let alone the glory of the past. Unless they met with another calamity like the one in heaven, perhaps there was still a chance for them to cut off part of their power. Otherwise, they could only rely on the Dao Burning Furnace to barely make it through their days. The Qing Xuan Sect is too chaotic, I need to have a complete transformation to be able to overthrow everything and rebuild with me as my master. Chen Fan said in a serious tone. This was his plan in the first place, but after realising that the Qing Xuan Sect was splitting apart, he realized how difficult it was to not have the strength to do so. If he wanted to use his Qing Xuan Sect to rise up once again, then he would need to have his own power, and the target he would choose would be Qin Sheng and his disciple. They were considered marginalized within the Sect, and thus, were not highly regarded as a silent group. Just by giving them a little bit of benefit in the appropriate areas, they would be able to stand firmly by his side. Come on, do you think you''re still that invincible Supreme Wu Tian? Even if you start a new match, this old man will believe it. To be honest, he still hoped that Chen Fan could recover his strength. That way, he would definitely have the benefit. Chen Fan suddenly paused for a moment, and then raised his hand again. It was obvious that there was a light aura flickering, for example, I have reached this stage, but I am still able to trample on the heavenly dao. Weng! * A hazy mist appeared in the air, all of them brewed from Spiritual Energy. The sneer on Chen Fan''s face became even more obvious, as he invisibly focused his aura towards Deer God. You, you, you, what do you want to do? This old man is the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao! He subconsciously wanted to escape back to the Dao Burning Furnace, but he was already sealed by Chen Fan so Deer God could immediately sense that danger was coming. Recalling the former''s unparalleled power and ruthless methods, he even thought that he was going to be treated as a great tonic. What bullsh * t avatar, it''s just a fragment, but I never targeted an old man for no reason, so I''m going to kill you. The moment the words left his mouth, Chen Fan felt that it was a little strange. He was already ten thousand years old, who would have thought that after his revival, he would still meet an existence even older than himself. Immediately after, the mist enveloped Deer God, releasing strands of corrosive force, which continuously drove him into the space between Chen Fan''s eyebrows. You are no longer the Supreme Wu Tian of the past, you actually thought of attacking me, you should be careful not to die together with me! Deer God let out a stern cry. He placed his five fingers together, and released waves after waves of sharp auras. The surrounding space was torn apart, and a few cracks appeared. The old fellow seemed to still want to resist, but it was useless. His entire body was covered by that layer of mist, and the flow of space was also forcefully restrained. Especially for his current state, it was as if he was surrounded by countless steel needles. Any unusual movement would cause him great pain. Then, the last white light flashed and that old figure directly entered Chen Fan''s mind. He was immediately suppressed by the Spiritual Consciousness and was no longer able to move. Wuu, you are all bullying this old man. All these years, I have been unable to escape the persecution of you two generations of master and disciple. The incarnation of the Heavenly Dao has been turned into a prisoner ¡­ Sensing that he had lost contact with the Dao Burning Furnace, Deer God was stunned at first, then he started crying, and even started to pinch his body. Chen Fan: "... The old man''s sorrowful and tearful appearance made it seem as if he was assaulting him. Qin Sheng, Zhao Xu and the others would have to spend a great deal of effort to create this Zifu Space, so it would not be too difficult for Chen Fan. Even after shrinking for more than eight thousand years, it was more than enough to trap an old man. A normal Violet Palace Realm ought to be a glorious palace space, no matter how weak it was, there would at least be a place of primal chaos that could move a hundred kilometers at any time. Unfortunately, in Chen Fan''s mind, there was only a radius of three hundred meters left, a huge difference between the heaven and the earth. With great difficulty, a pair of large hands condensed and grabbed onto Deer God''s body. Chen Fan''s consciousness that came from him gradually moved towards the deepest part of the former''s body. When Chen Fan first saw this guy, he had already wanted to do this, but he had not found the source of the quasi-Deer God. After pondering over it for the past two days, as long as he could control the Deer God, he would no longer be able to defy Chen Fan''s will and become a master and servant relationship. Listen to me. If we work together, we can both return back to normal His real body was just around the corner. He returned the same words to the Deer God, and Chen Fan tried to persuade him through the Spiritual Consciousness. He indeed needed help from such a powerful expert. Although the Deer God did not have much fighting strength left, he had existed for much longer than Chen Fan. Really? You can help me? The Deer God was suddenly interested. I''ve been in a slumbering state for the past few years, completely isolated from the rest of the world. I don''t have the slightest understanding of the major events that have transpired on the continent, so I have to rely on you. After Chen Fan told the truth, who knew how disgusting he felt when he said those words. It was just like an old man who was close to a hundred years old fighting with another old woman of the age of tea and still had to apologize to her. There was really no place for him to hide his face. Wu, consider that you still have a bit of conscience, for Cao Rui''s sake, I''ll reluctantly agree. On one hand, they had to help each other. When compared to the two of them, he could not really protect the source of energy. C33 Although he was similar to Chen Fan, without his peak fighting strength, he still had the identity of a Heavenly Dao Fragment, sealed within the Dao Burning Furnace and knew everything about the outside world. He could sense everything through the Heavenly Dao, and all the secrets could not be hidden from the Deer God. Similarly, as a living fossil, Chen Fan who was able to survive in this half-dead state was completely different from the Heavenly Dao Fragment, and would be even more useful in the future. In other words, if Chen Fan wanted to explore any dangerous or unsolvable problems, he would be able to hear the answer from the former. This was the ready-made encyclopedia. No, I said your place is too dilapidated, it can''t even match up to my esteemed status. The Deer God complained. Don''t call me a brat, call me Supreme Wu Tian. Chen Fan replied. He had the intention to strengthen his Zifu Space, so he didn''t have the ability to do so. Tsk, if it wasn''t for this old man mentioning it, you would have already forgotten about it. In the end, under Chen Fan''s lead, the two of them formed an alliance. The next day, as the sun rose, Chen Fan''s mood improved greatly. His plans were progressing steadily, and every happy occasion was worth celebrating. Around noon, he was brought to a secret room. Nangong Yi had his hands behind his back, obviously he had been waiting for a long time. Chen Fan, what is the purpose of Lan Yu sending you here to propose? Unexpectedly, Nangong Yi took the initiative to ask a question. laughed, even if I told you the reason, you wouldn''t necessarily believe me. No matter, anyway, I still have some doubts about your identity, so there''s no harm in telling me about it. Nangong Yi was rather frank, he had sent people to search for Chen Fan''s past overnight, but before entering the Qing Xuan Sect, he did not have any experience. It was as if his entire person had appeared out of thin air, barging into the Qing Xuan Sect all of a sudden and then using an incomparably stupefied posture to acquire the position of offering. If even Ancient Saint Ming Rui can''t believe it, then I have no choice. Chen Fan shook his head, looking quite helpless. In truth, he was secretly delighted. This old fellow had indeed taken the bait. Since he found that there were some contradictions within the Hua Ding Sect, and that they were not willing to get married, he decided to use Nangong Yi to complete the mission. A saint''s realm is naturally not something an ordinary person like this old man can guess, but are you truly related to the Ancient Saint? Nangong Yi''s bright eyes seemed to be able to see through the deepest parts of a person''s heart. No matter what secret he had, it would not be hidden. Of course, this was not true for Chen Fan. Either he had accumulated for even longer periods of time, or his spirit had reached a certain level. Otherwise, all he could do was waste energy. Nan Gong Sect Leader, your Mind Reading is still lacking a bit of experience, maybe in another hundred or two hundred years before you can master it. Chen Fan lazily interrupted Nangong Yi, the latter had the demeanor of a Sect Leader, acting as if nothing had happened. He directly shifted his gaze away, looking extremely thick-skinned. His pair of black eyes were as calm as water, without the slightest bit of emotion or ripple. Chen Fan''s appearance made Nangong Yi feel that it was strange, but he was unable to find where Breaking Dawn was. From the martial arena to that point, if it was any other young expert, they would have long been flustered. They might even run back to the Qing Xuan Sect during the night, leaving this place far behind. This young man''s performance was far too calm, unlike his age frame of mind. Even when he was fighting with the elders, he didn''t have such a frame of mind. I am truly curious. Just what kind of reliance do you have to be able to act in such a manner within my Hua Ding Sect without worrying about any consequences? Thinking about it carefully, Nangong Yi could only conclude one thing, and that was that Chen Fan definitely had a trump card behind him, one that was enough to make the entire Hua Ding Sect fear him. Aren''t we here to discuss marriage? Why are we changing the topic? Chen Fan casually pulled over a chair and casually sat down. A trace of anger flashed across Nangong Yi''s face, but he did not say anything more. What kind of thing was this fellow? His enormous Hua Ding Sect was half of his effort, if it wasn''t for him losing all his strength, how would he talk calmly with Nangong Yi. You have the ability to control our River Formation, so we must solve this mystery before we can make our next decision. Even if he wanted to find a home for his precious granddaughter, Nangong Yi couldn''t just casually agree to it. Facing this unknown fellow, even the smart Senior Expert like him couldn''t see through him. If they were to rashly form a marriage, wouldn''t that mean that Holy Maiden had been pushed into a pit of fire? No matter what, he was still a Sect Leader, it wasn''t the right decision to speak out his heart''s thoughts so clearly. Chen Fan revealed a smile that had a deeper meaning. Sigh, I originally wanted to keep a low profile. It seems that I can only let a so-called mediocre person like you experience the legacy of a saint. Finally, he reached the last ring, and finally confirmed the identity of this disciple from another generation in Ancient Saint. What are you trying to do now? This was the place our sect had specially prepared for the Holy Maiden. Within a radius of five miles, the power of the Riverside Formation will not have any effect. Nangong Yi''s voice rose by a few notches. In order to prevent his precious granddaughter from getting into any trouble, it could be said that he had put in a lot of effort. Even this seemingly ordinary secret chamber was made from an entire meteorite. It was able to link up with the Riverside Formation and also had its own defensive capabilities. It was not an exaggeration to say that this was the safest place in the entire Hua Ding Sect. This was also the reason why Nangong Yi had called Chen Fan over. It''s fine, as long as there are Formation Pattern s, it doesn''t matter. Chen Fan said calmly. Speaking of the extent of Cao Rui''s understanding of the Riverside Formation, he was second only to Cao Rui since he had the highest authority. All of the former''s attainments in the Dao of array formations came from his teaching, and even the words'' river river river ''was imparted to him by him. As his voice fell, a heavy pressure suddenly emitted from his body, and spread outwards like a tide. But to be precise, it should be from the Dao Burning Furnace in front of his chest. In order to eliminate Nangong Yi''s doubts, Chen Fan immediately decided to reveal something to him. It was real, more convincing than any other explanation he could think of. Inadvertently stomping his feet, he secretly activated the River Formation and transferred all the power he needed into his body, allowing Chen Fan to feel that familiar feeling again. He directly stirred the Seal, waking it up from its slumber for many years. The terrifying high temperature brewed, but was released by Chen Fan in another way. You... Nangong Yi shouted, but before he could say anything, he withstood it. He instinctively sensed that a gargantuan change was about to occur. C34 His heart was beating rapidly for no reason. This was his special warning sign towards danger. Even in a hundred years, it would not happen once. As long as he appeared, he would definitely be greatly shocked. In the dense fog, his line of sight was affected. Chen Fan''s spirit arts started to revolve around the Furnace Body, both of his hands were also continuously hitting the floor, the marks needed the stimulation of his body''s brute force. From afar, it looked like a small sun. Even Nangong Yi found it hard to look directly at it. He subconsciously wanted to display his might. There was no spiritual treasure that could be so arrogant in front of him, let alone in the hands of a little fellow. But just when he was about to take action, before the Spiritual Energy could even reach his dantian, he felt an earth-shattering pressure attack in the blink of an eye. Even with his strength, it seemed like he was only a mayfly trying to shake a tree. This was clearly the wrath of a saint! Just like how Nangong Yi mocked himself, a mediocre person like him could only look up to Sage Realm Rankers. That was already a completely different world, yet he actually wanted to try and resist the Holy Might ¡­ Kid, this is the first account that you owe me. The Deer God shouted from within his Zifu, and at the same time, endless white divine light surged out, entering the Dao Burning Furnace s and completely activating them from inside out. The intimidating Sage Realm''s coercion unrestrainedly expanded, assaulting Nangong Yi''s mind at all times. His state of mind, which had remained calm for decades, also surged to the heavens. With his identity as a Sect Leader of the Hua Ding Sect, he had never seen such a huge storm before. The air in the room was almost frozen, just like Nangong Yi''s stiff and stiff state. There was a sneer on his face a moment ago, thinking that all of Chen Fan''s new tricks were still in his control. This... How was this possible? There were no longer any experts in this world who were willing to pay the price of a saint ¡­ Nangong Yi''s expression changed greatly as fear filled his heart. That kind of pressure made him feel a boundless majesty, as if he was facing a vast sea of stars. He didn''t even dare to raise a thought to resist. He recalled that the Zhongzhou Emperor he met a hundred years ago was a true fusion powerhouse, and the impact that it had on him wasn''t even this great. Above... Nangong Yi was already unable to imagine, how could he speak nonsense of such a mystical realm. The deeper one went into the depths of cultivation, the more one could experience the terror of those truly peak powerhouses. This road was truly too difficult. The ones who could persevere to the very end were all dragons and phoenixes. It was just like a teenage boy who had just started his career on the road of cultivation. He might even have the ambition to surpass the Ancient Saint, which would be nothing even if he shouted and shouted all day long. However, to someone at Nangong Yi''s level, even in death, he would never say something like that. He had long recognized the disparity between them, and it would not be wrong to say that they were ants compared to giant dragons. If one did not truly gaze at the abyss, one would not be able to understand the terror of the abyss. Perhaps one would think that it was just a pure night scene. No matter what, Chen Fan was Cao Rui''s master, and with the combination of the Deer God and the Riverside Formation, it was not difficult for him to display such might, but he would have to pay a large price. What was the Nan Gong Sect Leader to say now? Chen Fan spread open his hands. He still had that speechless expression on his face, as if he was deeply dissatisfied with Nangong Yi''s questioning. Chen Fan... No, no, no... Alien Minister Chen, I was blind, after all, in the continent, there haven''t been any Sage Realm s, please forgive me. Nangong Yi hurriedly changed his words, as he said extremely respectfully. The way he looked at the former had become abnormally cautious, as he was worried that his previous actions had truly offended Chen Fan. This unique Holy Might was able to explain all of the confusion. No matter how incredulous it was, adding the name of the Ancient Saint, it wouldn''t mean much anymore. You are a high and mighty Sect Leader of the Hua Ding Sect, it is easy for others to feel that something is amiss with your tone and attitude. Chen Fan was truly speechless this time. He didn''t expect this old fellow to instantly change into a different person. It wouldn''t even be enough to describe him with the word "humble". He had also underestimated the Sage Realm s'' huge shock towards Nangong Yi, a feeling that was far higher than his own. In the memories of Chen Fan''s true experience, one month ago, he was still discussing dao with a few Ancient Saint s, discussing about the question of longevity. However, after ten thousand years in a single sleep, the latter had long since become withered bones. Good. Hearing that Chen Fan seemed to be somewhat repulsed, Nangong Yi could barely suppress the slight trembling of his body, and his demeanor gradually returned to normal. With a wave of his hand, he created the demeanor of the great sect''s Sect Leader who ruled over thousands of miles. You want to hear the truth, don''t you? I swear to you that you will never tell a third person anything about this unless I give you my consent. About that, our sect is still overthinking about the past of the Ancient Saint. Nangong Yi panicked, why would he meddle in the matters of Saints? At this point, even if the Nan Gong Sect Leader wanted to hear it, he had to listen. He had to at least hear it. Chen Fan muttered in a low voice, which was just nice for the old fellow to hear. He had originally planned to explain things to Lan Yu, but since he was forced to do it so hard, this was the only way. Pow! After he ruthlessly slapped himself in his heart, Nangong Yi was simply regretting it to the extreme. He actually covered his heart with lard to offend a young elite who was related to the Ancient Saint. Swish! He waved his hand and cut his fingertip, forcing a few drops of blood out. Then, he began to mutter an incantation. It triggered a surge of heaven''s will into his body, fusing with the blood. In the blink of an eye, he had completed the oath. In the next hour, not a single word that Chen Fan had said could be leaked by Nangong Yi. Although this method was restricted to Sect Leader Rankers, if they wanted to break it by force, they would have to pay a considerable price. Chen Fan believed that after this old fellow heard his lies, he would not recite them again. The world today had changed a long time ago. Ever since the end of the Heaven Calamity, the laws of this world had dried up and became increasingly unfathomable. The era of the Sage Realm s had also passed away. These were all reasons that everyone knew about, but Nangong Yi had never heard of any rules before, hence he was taken aback upon hearing about it. Amongst the Furnace Body, Deer God shook his head as he revealed one word, and Chen Fan repeated his story. The Ancient Saint has indeed been dead for a long time, but that young man is already old and is still cultivating in the Wilderness. Even after leaving me this Heavy Treasure, he can only release a little of his holy power. Chen Fan calmly said some nonsense. His eyes were as clean as a pool of black water. C35 Three years later, following his orders, I will return to the Wilderness. During this time, I will be able to walk around in the Cultivation Realm appropriately. Nangong Yi called out Ancient Saint by name. If he really wanted to meet Ancient Saint someday, and where could Chen Fan go to find him, he could only use the words of a descendant to stall. Our sect understands that regarding the identity of the Alien Minister Chen, we guarantee that no one else will find out. Nangong Yi could naturally tell that the descendant of the Ancient Saint was acting in a low-profile, and was not willing to go all out; he was only trying to train his own disciple to go out and gain experience. Nangong Yi had done this many times, usually transferring away the younger generations that he valued, to a place where his Hua Ding Sect could not compare to, or changing his name, purely for the sake of cultivating in the mortal world. Some of them even directly went to the Zhongzhou area, but there was still no news from back then, so Nangong Yi immediately understood Chen Fan''s'' difficulties''. Where''s your darling granddaughter? She came all the way over here, I''m sure she''ll let me see her so I can go back and report. Chen Fan very naturally reverted back to the attitude of a junior, while Nangong Yi did not dare to reject, and closed his eyes to send a sound transmission, where he waited outside for a long time. Chen Fan''s gaze moved along that beautiful figure, he seemed to have a graceful body, a slim figure, protruding places that should be protruding, and a beauty that should be perking up places, definitely not out of tens of thousands. Even with Chen Fan''s vast experience, he was still a little surprised. Just from the body, he was unable to find any flaws, and suddenly, countless of men went crazy for him. Especially on her face that was covered by a veil, a pair of beautiful eyes blinked. They were incomparably bright, and an indescribable feeling flowed through them, easily causing others to daydream about her. Alien Minister Chen, this is our sect''s granddaughter, Nangong Xuan. A dignified Hua Ding Sect Sect Leader, a true expert at the pinnacle of the Southern Region. When he was introducing the place to Chen Fan, Nangong Yi''s old face was filled with loneliness. There have been far too many misunderstandings about Xuan''er in the past few years, and the same goes for the sect. They didn''t see that the reason I wanted to raise Xuan''er to the position of Holy Maiden was because of that. Putting aside his status as a Sect Leader, at this moment, Nangong Yi was just a helpless senior who did his best to protect his descendants. It was precisely because she was the only female disciple of the Void Spirit Sect who was worthy of such a position. A twenty year old half-step Core Condensating, in the entire Southern Domain, was rare! These words were not wrong. Looking at Nangong Xuan''s naturally circulating aura, her strength was indeed not weak. Furthermore, touching the barrier of Core Formation Stage, it wouldn''t be long before she would make a new breakthrough. One must know that this was the first chasm in the path of cultivation. Many young cultivators who had advanced by leaps and bounds in their cultivation had to stay in this realm for a long time, wasting a great deal of energy. Amongst the many protectors of the Qing Xuan Sect, his strength was around the middle level, and it took him dozens of years to reach the fifth level of the Core Condensating. From this, it could be seen that Nangong Xuan''s talent was indeed shocking. Chen Fan agreed noncommittally, and started to carefully study the situation, hmm, Nangong Xuan right? With extraordinary talent, this is your biggest asset, you don''t need to care about the rumors. Since he has taken the position of Sect Leader, how can he let the entire Hua Ding Sect be shamed for Xuan''er alone!? Even without her peerless beauty, she could still become a top powerhouse in the future! Nangong Yi''s emotions were a little agitated, but Nangong Xuan beside him tried to persuade him in a low voice. He had seen this kind of situation many times, so he was used to it. Unbiased, Nangong Yi''s only weakness was this darling granddaughter, which was why she wanted to reject everyone''s opinions, and also wanted to find the Qing Xuan Sect to be her mother''s home. Let''s not talk about that anymore. Take off your veil, I want to see what''s going on. He had seen a lot of Holy Maiden, but with the help of Zhao Xu, he became even more sorrowful, causing him to look forward to seeing the real Nangong Yi. As he took off his veil, Chen Fan''s eyes flashed with a strange light as well. Damn, isn''t this the legendary mother of all people? In his mind, the Deer God''s surprised voice always sounded like this. There was a grey birthmark on that small face, it was completely covered in rashes, and the right side of the face was crooked, looking hideous. No wonder there was the rumor of the midwife being frightened. The birthmark was so huge that a face could barely be seen on it. With a head like that of a demon beast, and a face like that of a demon beast, one could feel goosebumps rising all over one''s body. There was a sarcoma at the bridge of one''s nose, which covered up one''s mouth. If one looked carefully, Chen Fan would suspect that Nangong Yi''s son had gone to mess with the Sea Clan. Brat, I''m very sure to tell you that this girl is definitely one of the best, just right to be on good terms with you. Deer God laughed sinisterly. Nan Gong Sect Leader, may I ask, do you have any connections with the Sea Clan? Although he did not sense any fishy smell from the sea, it was still the first time that Chen Fan had seen such a thing. If someone else were to ask that, Nangong Yi would definitely fall out, but with Chen Fan''s special identity, he patiently shook his head and replied. In fact, our sect has had suspicions before. Ming''er and his wife were accidentally killed while exploring a secret realm. I specially went to ask the Sea Clan about it, but they were unable to do anything about it. That Sect Leader had never tried any other methods, such as changing his face, using a human skin mask to hide his face, etc. At the very least, it would be able to make the Holy Maiden even more famous. Chen Fan became even more curious. Logically speaking, with Nangong Yi''s identity and status, even if he used a method of possession, he would still be able to get a good skin for Nangong Xuan. Grandfather ¡­ Nangong Xuan who had been silent all this time called out softly and used her hand to pull Nangong Yi''s hand. This action drew Chen Fan''s attention to her two arms, his bare hands, and slender fingers. His perfect white and flawless body seemed to be coupling, and it was even more impossible to connect with his face. There were some things that were inconvenient to say, but in front of Alien Minister Chen, they could only be straightforward. Nangong Yi hesitated slightly, but due to his trust in the Ancient Saint, he decided to speak the truth. In these twenty years, he didn''t know how many methods had been tried, and he had even gone through extreme ways. He had even secretly hidden this from Xuan''er and obtained the fresh skin of many beauties, or used masks and the like to create a ''mask'' for her. But for some reason, other than using the most common kind of cloth like a veil, any external skin transplants would have no effect at all. Instead, there would be waves of intense pain and I would not dare to try again. C36 This was Nangong Yi''s biggest problem. So what if he had the arrogance and strength to be arrogant in his current world? He couldn''t even do anything to his own granddaughter''s face, and could only endure all kinds of ridicule from the outside world. Nangong Xuan, who was at the side, was also tearing up. Over the past few decades, she had always heard the ridicule directed at her, and she had no idea how many times she had wanted to commit suicide when facing this disappointing face. When he was young, when he went out, it became a stinging sensation to this day. Until now, he was unwilling to even speak. He was taciturn and focused on his cultivation. There was actually such a thing? Chen Fan became even more interested. Naturally, he was not scared. The Spiritual Consciousness had entered Nangong Xuan''s body and carried out an all-rounded search. Although this look didn''t seem to be important, his brows immediately furrowed, and the Heavenly Heart Formula actually began to revolve involuntarily. Deer God, look at this problem, why do I feel like her body is filled with an ancient grudge? Chen Fan secretly asked the old fellow. That''s right, this seemed to be a physique that was hard to find. Even a hundred years of reincarnation might not appear. What was it called? The Deer God was after all a Heavenly Dao Fragment. After seeing Nangong Xuan''s condition, they immediately came to a decision. The heavens were against his body! After a short exchange of words, the two of them revealed the truth at the same time. The two of them, Nangong Yi and his grandson, had long been disappointed who knew how many times as they waited for Chen Fan to open his eyes. In fact, they didn''t even think that the latter would make a breakthrough. This disease... I can treat it. "After pondering for a moment, Chen Fan gave a relatively conservative judgement. Although he couldn''t guarantee that he would actually have the peerless appearance of the Holy Maiden, he was sure that he would be able to return to normal ¡­ If it really was some strange disease that was hard to see in the world, Chen Fan naturally had nowhere to apply it. He did not have much research on the way of medicine, but since it was this kind of physique, there might be a reason. Really? Alien Minister Chen, you aren''t lying to me right? Hearing this, Nangong Yi instantly fell into ecstasy, yet he still could not believe what had just happened, and kept asking. Are you questioning the Ancient Saint? Chen Fan secretly released a wave of Spiritual Consciousness, he pointed to the Dao Burning Furnace on the table and mysteriously said: This is what the other one among the Furnace Body told me. If you want to scare an old cunning guy like Nangong Yi, first, you have to grab onto his weak point, and secondly, your trick must be perfect. From the start, he had spat out all of his cards in one go. It was far from being as clever as pretending to accidentally reveal his cards. From then on, Nangong Yi had an illusion and firmly believed that there must be even more Ancient Saint left behind by Chen Fan. Even if he had any ulterior motives, he would not dare to act on his own initiative. The one inside? After muttering to himself twice, Nangong Yi finally realized that among some extremely high level treasures, if they were nourished by the spirit energy over a long period of time, there was a chance that they would give birth to gods. This was the true treasure of the Hua Ding Sect. They only had a foundation of a few thousand years, yet they did not dare to use it carelessly. In the end, Chen Fan casually took out a furnace. Not only did it exude Holy Might, there was also a God that could communicate with him. Grandfather, can he do it? Nangong Xuan pulled on the corner of Nangong Yi''s clothes again, her voice sounding as soft as a mosquito. All these years, there wasn''t just one self-proclaimed genius doctor who came to visit, saying that he wanted to treat his own illness. In the end, it was just like a tiger''s head or a snake''s tail, and there wasn''t even the slightest effect. Over time, Nangong Xuan had already resigned herself to her fate, and did not feel much towards the Chen Fan who had suddenly appeared. Xuan''er, don''t worry, as long as Alien Minister Chen says it''s alright, then there''s definitely no problem. We''ll be saved now, hahaha! Seeing the calm face of Chen Fan, Nangong Yi laughed loudly. Although she didn''t know why her grandfather had become so careless, Nangong Xuan still returned the greeting symbolically. She clearly knew how frightening her smile was. This was not a strange illness, but a type of cultivation physique called the Heaven''s Grief Uggly Body. Since birth, it had been condensed by resentment. The phenomenon on this face was precisely the manifestation of that resentment. Chen Fan thought, even if he knew the real reason, he could not reveal it to the two of them, as it would cause new trouble. Our sect is stupid, but we have never heard of such a physique. Nangong Yi thought back for a while, but still didn''t have any impression of him. Furthermore, when he made his diagnosis and treatment, he did not find anything strange either. He did not even understand what Chen Fan was saying. Right now, Nangong Xuan''s body was filled with that kind of resentment, born of heaven and earth, and ordinary people could not eradicate it. With that, Chen Fan immediately grabbed her left arm and started to operate the Heavenly Heart Formula, releasing a white light that entered Nangong Xuan''s meridians. This kind of action was extremely rude to girls, and in front of Nangong Yi, Chen Fan laughed it off. When you were training normally, you would often run into difficulties, right? The mysterious Spiritual Energy disappeared, and after a period of time, it suddenly ran out again. Pretending to be a genius doctor, Chen Fan symbolically reached out to touch the former''s wrist, and asked. Yes. Nangong Xuan nodded. It was because the grudges covered one''s senses, but the powerful aptitude of this sort of physique also helped you forcefully refine it, and got back a portion of the power that belonged to you. Chen Fan explained. If she hadn''t met him, this tug of war would have persisted for a long time. While they were talking, the Heavenly Heart Formula had already penetrated deep into the Dantian. This could be said to be the place with the densest density in the entire body. Black clouds gathered here, rolling back and forth as if the sun were out of sight all year round, even though the place was originally insulated from the sun''s rays. Chen Fan did not think much of it and immediately extended his hand, releasing a strong suction force that continuously transmitted the pill into his body. As one of the wonders of the world, the Heavenly Heart Formula was not only able to turn fear and anger into Spiritual Energy, even the grudges from this special physique suited its appetite. Now, Nangong Xuan could clearly feel that something had been pulled out from her body, but it did not feel uncomfortable at all. Wisps of black mist quickly flowed out from Nangong Yi''s meridians, and then, through his hands, it was transmitted into Chen Fan''s body. Only he was not afraid of the corrosive power brought by these resentments. Otherwise, even with the Heavenly Heart Formula in his hands, he would still suffer an unimaginable backlash the instant the resentment was absorbed into his body. Nangong Yi watched on from the side, afraid that other accidents might occur. You can''t see these grudges yet, only those with the special Heaven''s Eyes can detect them, it will take about seven times to completely expel them. C37 Only after an entire hour had passed did Chen Fan finally stop and let out a long sigh of satisfaction. Then looking at Nangong Xuan, the birthmark like ''dirty thing'' on her face had clearly become a lot lighter, and even the area it covered had shrunk a little. Looks like your darling granddaughter isn''t bad, her face is naturally pretty. Chen Fan praised her truthfully. Xuan''er, quickly take a look! Alien Minister Chen is our savior, it''s really effective! These past few years, he had always had a death order; he was forbidden from appearing a mirror near Nangong Xuan''s residence. Now that he saw the changes in the latter with his own eyes, his heart was once again thrown into turmoil. Is this true? Touching her own cheeks that were no longer ugly, which seemed to have become smoother because of this, Nangong Xuan murmured to herself softly. All of this felt like a dream. Rest assured, since I said I can treat you, I will definitely give you a satisfactory result. Chen Fan was also overjoyed, which was a typical windfall. To him, this was definitely an opportunity. Such a rich grudge could be used to refine it, and if he roughly calculated, it would probably be able to steadily support his way up to the Golden Core Stage. Alien Minister Chen, I really have to thank you. I have spent twenty years without being able to find any clues, your first move has miraculous effects. couldn''t help but believe that Chen Fan was definitely the descendant of Ancient Saint Ming Rui. Even though it was separated by many generations, the myriad of methods had really exceeded his knowledge. His state of mind, which had been calm and tranquil for decades, was now shaken who knows how many times by Chen Fan''s actions. Even Nangong Yi thought that this was the protection of the ancestor. Of course, it was the Ancient Saint Ming Rui who truly contributed to Hua Ding Sect, but after a few thousand years, he sent a disciple to help him. In the future, come and visit me a few more times. I''ll cultivate Pingquan Peak at the Qing Xuan Sect, and within half a month, I must conduct another purge. After Chen Fan gave some instructions, he turned around and left, with Nangong Yi following closely behind. On the way, the former was still deep in thought. He secretly thought that, due to the clues from before, he had a new guess that this might be another trump card that Cao Rui had left behind. Since this gargantuan favor was being placed here, and it was ultimately for the sake of winning over, he might as well be shameless. Thinking about it here, Chen Fan stopped in his tracks. Now, I have changed my mind. The disciples of the Ancient Saint need Spiritual Being s to assist them in their cultivation. Hearing this, Nangong Yi didn''t feel displeased at all. Instead, he felt relieved. As long as it''s something our sect can do, we can do anything for Xuan''er. He was just worried that Chen Fan would not say a word and help him out so much; The main reason was still due to this fellow''s background and identity, how could he take advantage of someone like the Ancient Saint? He had to pay a corresponding price to make Nangong Yi feel at ease. The higher the grade of the spirit medicine equivalent to eight million Spiritual Stone s, the better. If I need more, I will get Nangong Xuan to tell you. After his recovery, Chen Fan had a better or less understanding of the Spiritual Stone. Previously, he had never thought that it was worth something. Looking at them, they were all Saints discussing the Dao, who would care about the Spiritual Stone s? In their eyes, it was just a pile of useless stones. This time was not the same as in the past. Chen Fan, who was in a hurry to recover his strength, could only take this opportunity to seek Nangong Yi''s help. This price wasn''t even worth the price, it was about the earnings of a few years from a few mid-ranked sects. If placed on Hua Ding Sect, they would only be able to cut half a piece of the meat. Alright, I will send someone to prepare them and deliver them to the Qing Xuan Sect as soon as possible. Without any hesitation, Nangong Yi agreed immediately. For his darling granddaughter, even the stars in the sky were something he wanted to pluck, let alone some Spiritual Stone. Chen Fan waved his hand. After a moment of hesitation, he decided to make it clear that it was better if he didn''t have to worry about others. Maybe this old fellow is just a clown. Most importantly, I have just walked out of the Wilderness and do not have any foundation to speak of. I need your support. Chen Fan''s voice was very clear. For a transcendent power like Hua Ding Sect, if one wanted to truly establish themselves, the first step was to climb to a high position. In this way, he would have enough capital to rope in or make promises to others and form his own faction. If Alien Minister Chen can cure Xuan''er completely, then you will be able to sit down and take the two chairs of my Hua Ding Sect. This is the will of our sect, so Great Elder and the others are similarly unable to change it. This time, Nangong Yi pondered for a bit, and said steadily, he knew very well how much pressure he had to face. However, if they were to fight to the end, he had the confidence that he would be able to win against those elders. After all, he was Hua Ding Sect''s number one figure. Chen Fan: "... The old fellow was clever, he did not forget to add another condition, which would first cause Nangong Xuan''s strange illness. She needed to heal completely. Qing Xuan Sect was the true headquarters. No matter how grateful she was to Nangong Xuan, it was impossible for him to compare herself to a Ancient Token of Grand Master. Nan Gong Sect Leader, I think you might have misunderstood my meaning, I don''t have any other plans in your sect, the one that was just now was and the rest ¡­ As the words stopped there, Nangong Yi was clearly aware of the awkward position Chen Fan was in within the Sect. Even after three months, he still didn''t know how to deal with it, much less stand firmly, he was still completely suspended in the air. It was still like this: To cure Xuan''er, in the future, even if it''s a competition between Sect Leader s, our sect will do everything in our power to help! When he thought about Chen Fan''s identity as the successor of the Ancient Saint, Nangong Yi had the urge to mock Blue Rain in his face. With such a great opportunity right in front of him, he actually went so far as to make a ruckus with the former. Chen Fan: "... When had he ever said he wanted to become a Sect Leader of Qing Xuan Sect? He was not interested in such painstaking work. Actually, looking at the future of Qing Xuan Sect, Alien Minister Chen is indeed inferior to me in terms of Hua Ding Sect. It could be seen that Nangong Yi still had the intention to recruit Chen Fan, and was not hoping to have any relationship with a descendant of the Ancient Saint. Chen Fan shook his head, he did not say a word, his attitude was resolute, this kind of thing was not something that could be discussed, unless he had Ancient Token of Grand Master s of the Hua Ding Sect. In the end, he did not stay too long under the protection of the Hua Ding Sect. Under Nangong Yi''s personal escort, he activated his Domain Gate and safely returned to the Qing Xuan Sect. Looking at the familiar yet dilapidated Sect in front of their eyes, both Qin Sheng and Zhao Xu found it hard to understand what was going on. Furthermore, with the past few days of experience that he had with Nangong Xuan, it was no different from daydreaming. C38 From the training grounds to the ancestral mark, the attitude of the higher ups of the Hua Ding Sect changed. Although it was unclear what was going on, Qin Sheng was very clear that they were relying on the help of the Alien Minister Chen beside them. He and Zhao Xu had only wandered around the Hua Ding Sect a few times and did not participate in any practical matters. Instead, they had truly become Chen Fan''s supporters and his status as an offering. After a few twists and turns, he was finally lucky enough to not fail his mission. Qin Sheng sighed, then turned to Pindu Peak to report the news, Chen Fan still walked back to his own Spiritual Peak, which was similarly pitifully small. He surveyed his surroundings. Other than the craggy rocks, there were Ancient Tree s everywhere. From time to time, there would be small beasts scurrying around. It looked like a half primitive set of Spiritual Peak. Little fellow, it''s not that I''m talking about you, but Zifu Space is so unrestrained and unrestrained. Deer God could not help but retort, he really could not watch any longer. He needed to find something to set up. It would be too shabby if he kept doing this. Chen Fan nodded in deep thought. Also, don''t call me little guy. He had seen all sorts of luxurious palaces, so he had long since forgotten about these things. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have chosen to sleep in the Wilderness for ten thousand years. However, since he was touched by the Hua Ding Sect''s great formation, a thought of improvement arose in his heart. Although he did not know how Qin Sheng reported the situation, in the next few days, Pindu Feng did not send out the order to see Chen Fan. On the other hand, news about the marriage spread from the Sect, and quickly spread throughout the entire sect. Even the servants outside were discussing it and discussing the past experiences of the Hua Ding Sect. Maybe he got the news from Qin Sheng, or maybe Nangong Yi was the one who sent the message. In short, the marriage proposal was a success. As for the big matter of the marriage alliance, it had already been decided by Team Blue Rain. Qing Xuan Sect''s scruples were already far less than Hua Ding Sect''s and were already declining to the point of being irreparable. Being able to connect a marriage and form a strong heart was also a good thing. Even the protectors would indistinctly hint at this when being questioned by the disciples, which was the equivalent of tacit approval of the fact that they were engaged in a marriage. All of these should be for the sake of announcing the marriage alliance, so they would warm up in advance and not be too surprised when the decision was made in public. Chen Fan did not mind, those few old fellows could run but the monk could not run away, sooner or later he would fulfill their promise. On the other hand, he was planning to walk outside, so he called Zhao Xu to lead the way. Let''s go to the Engravement Hall. Alien Minister Chen, do you want to choose a cultivation technique? Zhao Xu asked carefully. Ever since he had returned from the Hua Ding Sect, his attitude towards Chen Fan had greatly changed. You are not a flattering person. What I have in mind is a reliable heart, which will make me feel disgusted. Zhao Xu replied with a deeper meaning. Zhao Xu was intelligent to begin with, but upon hearing this, he instantly understood the meaning of the words. On the way, he met a lot of disciples, and naturally received a lot of ridicule and discussion, which Chen Fan completely ignored. Even if he had ten thousand year old Longevity, they would not even be enough for him, so why would he care? Very quickly, the two of them arrived at the Engravement Hall in Qing Xuan Sect. This place was an important place in Sect, so there were many experts guarding it. Alien Minister Chen, there are a lot of protector experts around, we shouldn''t disturb them. Zhao Xu woke him up in advance. Just as he entered the valley, Chen Fan felt numerous gazes sweep past him, as if wanting to see through him. He followed behind Zhao Xu and entered deeper into the valley step by step. Only then did he realise that there was another massive palace. Even though the area it occupied was at least five kilometers in radius, the outside world could not detect anything strange. It was obvious that it had been deliberately hidden by the Qing Xuan Sect. The techniques in the Engraving Hall were divided into four levels, the Sky, Earth, Profound, Yellow and the Earth. Which level did the Alien Minister Chen want to go to? Zhao Xu asked, facing the strange gaze of the guard disciple, he obtained the Jade Chip s that were allowed to enter. Since he was here, let''s take a look. Chen Fan said. Sure enough, after entering this palace, he had a new feeling. Not only could it conceal the existence of the entire valley, even if one broke into the Qing Xuan Sect, they might not even be able to discover this place. Just by looking at the workmanship of this hall, one could more or less tell how powerful the Qing Xuan Sect was in the past. Otherwise, one wouldn''t have to expend so much energy to reverse such a high standard of inscription hall. There were already many disciples flipping through the Jade Chip s, as they carefully selected their own cultivation techniques. Heh, Senior Brother Zhao is a rare guest, why did he suddenly think of taking care of us, the Hall of Enchantment? Go, go, go. I am also very diligent, alright? It''s just that I was a bit busy with Sect, so I didn''t have the time to walk around twice. Tsk, Senior Martial Brother Zhao always has a reason to make a comeback. Although Zhao Xu''s master was not very good at socializing, he wasn''t affected too much. He had quite a good network of contacts within the outer sect disciples, and there were a few people in the hall greeting him. Of course, the inner sect disciples were not much different, there were many who harbored an inexplicable hostility towards him, and some even wanted to use him to pull Qin Sheng into the water. Originally, they were all friendly and passionate, but when the people in the hall saw the person beside Zhao Xu, their expressions all changed. Chen Fan''s presence was simply too special. He had arrived with the ancestral token, and was practically descending from the skies. He had actually come to the Qing Xuan Sect to demand an Elder''s seat. His cultivation was only at the Qi Refining stage, yet he was so delusional. In the eyes of many disciples, he was nothing more than relying on his Ancient Token of Grand Master and his arrogance. Furthermore, with Bai Yu''s secret push, the entire sect currently did not have any good impressions of Chen Fan. From the age to cultivation, Senior Bai Yu fit the status of an esteemed elder, and had also made many contributions for Sect. Becoming an elder was a given, and was something that everyone agreed to. Who do you think you are to want to take away his belongings? So he''s our new Guardian. Don''t say it, he''s quite young. Many people looked up and down at Chen Fan, discussing animatedly, as though Chen Fan was unaware, and was just like those guys he met along the way. He went to look at the Jade Chip s. Tell me, what virtue or ability does this brat have? How did he get chosen by the Ancient Token of Grand Master? There was only one reason why Chen Fan was able to soar up, it was naturally because of the Ancient Token of Grand Master that carried the luck of the Sect. When they heard that he walked out of Wilderness and dug a grave inside, Ancient Token chanced upon flying into his hands. I also heard that the reason this brat went to the Wilderness was because he coveted the fox girls'' beauties there, but in the end he was tricked by them. Hearing that the words of the disciples were very fitting, Zhao Xu wanted to say something to stop them, but he was stopped by Chen Fan. He could only shake his head and sigh. C39 It was unknown where these rumors came from, but the more they spoke, the more unbearable they became. They practically characterized Chen Fan as a thirsty and weak pervert. That''s right, that''s right. After being dumped, he couldn''t bear it any longer. He wanted to dig someone else''s grave to lie down and bury himself alive. Who would have thought that he would be so lucky. Hmph, to let my Qing Xuan Sect be shamed again for no reason at all, what a shame. Ever since the news of Chen Fan being promoted to a reverend master had spread, the entire Cultivation Realm had started to mock them. When ordinary disciples go out to gain experience, they would be chased and interrogated, being seen as another scandal of the Qing Xuan Sect. I remember that he was sent to the Hua Ding Sect two days ago. Could it be that he was the one who suggested it? Suddenly, a disciple asked in confusion. Thinking back to the mishap in the martial arts arena, Chen Fan immediately made a move to teach those few guys a lesson. Sect Leader and the rest would definitely have a discussion with Hua Ding Sect, and that was just a formality. So it''s like that, I thought he really wanted to take away that weirdo Holy Maiden. The few of them were singing the same tune and were enjoying the show. Perhaps Lan Yu and the others were very clear about how much Chen Fan had invested in the marriage proposal, or perhaps they weren''t aware of the situation. Don''t worry about them. Just do your own thing. If you are easily disturbed by the outside world, your dao heart is still too weak. Chen Fan''s voice turned into a line and directly entered Zhao Xu''s ears, although the latter was still a little stunned by this concept. In the mind of this ten thousand year old monster, opening and closing one''s mouth should be the first priority in one''s dao heart. This was indeed the most important point of cultivation, but with Zhao Xu''s current realm, he still had a long way to go before he could come into contact with it. Faintly flipping through the shelves, he saw that every single Jade Chip, as well as the yellowing ancient books, had many cultivation techniques recorded within. In any case, it had the heritage of the former number one sect. Now that it had declined, the variety and quantity of its cultivation techniques would continue to frighten people. They would be able to catch a glimpse of its splendor and splendor. Nine Styles of Cloud Destroyer, Sea Congealing Sword Art, Heart Cleansing Art, Demon Subduing Seven Hands ¡­ These were all the lowest level cultivation techniques. From cultivation to the state of mind to cultivation, as well as the tempering of the body, everything was involved. Alien Minister Chen, if you want to practice some high level techniques, you should be able to go up there. Seeing Chen Fan walk back and forth for a while without seeing a single Jade Chip in his hands, Zhao Xu reminded him. In reality, Chen Fan did not really plan to cultivate these techniques. He had his own sealed memories that were much more profound than these ordinary techniques. The reason he came to the Engravement Hall was because he wanted to know more about the changes that had occurred in the cultivation system while he was in deep sleep. In this way, it would make it easier for him to recover his strength and adjust to the situation, so his speed would surely increase. Deer God, I''ll have to trouble you to simulate these cultivation techniques once, I have a great use for them. Chen Fan reminded them earlier. Oh. Deer God was naturally aware of the usefulness of these techniques to Chen Fan. He could only help the grasshoppers on both sides who were tied to the same rope. The original body of Heavenly Dao Fragment was no small matter. Usually, they only needed a single glance to remember the general meaning of these techniques. Don''t look at the densely packed shelves, with tens of thousands of cultivation techniques, if Chu Tian picked them up and put them down, it would be clearly imprinted on the Deer God. As for borrowing money from other disciples like the ordinary disciples, there was no need for that. If he wanted to, he could even take all the cultivation techniques at this level. Let''s go up and take a look. After around an hour, Chen Fan took the lead and quickly entered the great hall on the second floor. Most of the cultivation techniques here are Xuan Tier, but there are two or three Earth Tier cultivation techniques that are purely to attract disciples and to encourage us to climb higher. Zhao Xu pointed to the building board above him and explained. As an inner disciple, he could at most come here. Above that were the personal disciples and the personal guards'' exclusive areas. Ordinary people were not allowed to enter or leave. Chen Fan continued to observe the place from the east side as he was unable to endure the urging of the Deer God. The cultivation methods on this floor are mostly Profound Rank, not high nor low. They are very suitable for Foundation Building Stage cultivators, but the reference value for Chen Fan is very limited. They could either start from the lowest point and ponder the changes in their original cultivation paths over the years. Or he could go and look at the higher level techniques, which represented the peak level of current Cultivation Realm. If you go up together, maybe there will be something more suitable for you. Chen Fan called out to Zhao Xu. Alien Minister Chen, this isn''t good, right ¡­ Although he had been longing for it for a long time, Zhao Xu knew that he did not have it, and muttered. It''s fine, come with me. Every reverend can bring along an outstanding junior. Chen Fan said blandly, intentionally adding in his acknowledgement of Zhao Xu. No longer hesitating, under the astonished gazes from the people around, Zhao Xu stepped into a step that they had yearned for but never managed to achieve. Hmph, I see that Brother Zhao is also bewitched by that kid, he will be blown down to the ground by the protectors right away. Someone said in a hateful tone. His eyes were red with envy as he gritted his teeth and stared in that direction. Maybe Chen Fan would even be expelled, he was overestimating himself. Even if there was such loose rules, Chen Fan''s position of offering was extremely empty, to think that he was still so arrogant, wanting to bring Zhao Xu up as well. Many people were waiting to see the commotion, but no one moved for a long time. On the third floor of the Engravement Hall, where the Earth-ranked cultivation techniques were gathered. After arriving here, he could clearly feel that the atmosphere in the surrounding space had changed. The number of disciples and Jade Chip s placed on the shelves had directly decreased by ninety-five percent. When they saw Zhao Xu and the other two, one of the elders in charge of guarding the place was about to speak, but he was stopped by the protector beside him. Elder Sun, hold on ¡­ The guardian of the Engravement Hall had no information on what had happened on Pindu Peak. After the protector told him in a low voice, Elder Sun first revealed a look of shock, then looked at Chen Fan with a changed expression. This is the first time this Little Fellow Taoist has come to the third floor, right? This old man suggests going to the rows of shelves to have a look, just in time to see how your cultivation is progressing. Elder Sun walked over with a beaming smile as he pointed out the direction that Zhao Xu was pointing towards. With his strength, he naturally was able to see through the realm that the former was in. Ah? Zhao Xu was startled. He still maintained a high level of nervousness, afraid that someone would throw him down. Senior, are you talking about me? Hurry up, time is of the essence. This is the thing that you youngsters hate the least. Elder Sun had a benevolent look on his face, without any trace of arrogance or authority. C40 Many disciples looked at them attentively, but no one said anything. It had nothing to do with them, so they just looked at them arrogantly. Since they had the free time, they might as well use more grinding techniques. This was the biggest difference between them and the inner disciples below. Thank you very much, thank you very much. Zhao Xu bowed down to express his thanks. Chen Fan did not say much and went ahead to choose his own cultivation technique. Even a fool could tell that although Elder Sun ignored him, he still took the initiative to mention it. It''s just that he was a bit tactful, since it was very difficult to call him ''Alien Minister Chen''. Deer God, what did you get? Chen Fan asked. My harvest from this ball is all just juggling stuff. You said that a dignified Supreme Wu Tian like you would be reduced to picking up trash like that. The Earth-step cultivation technique that was treated as a treasure by the Protectors and their disciples became trash in the Deer God''s eyes. If he showed up here and told everything that had happened, he would most likely be beaten to a pulp. I mean, about these techniques, can you deduce the latter half ¡­ Chen Fan was speechless, he even started to doubt his decision to treat this old fellow as an ally. Actually, it was he who found out that there were many incomplete high level techniques, and it was not hard for him to guess what the Qing Xuan Sect had experienced during the past thousand years. Well, I''ll do my best. The Deer God muttered and did not make a sound. This was not a difficult task, but from his perspective, who would care so much about a pile of trash? How could a great power that had existed for ten thousand years be so depressed? Looking at the Jade Chip that was filled with cracks, Chen Fan sighed. For such a flourishing transcendent power, the number of cultivation techniques in the Engravement Hall would only increase rapidly. As for this situation, it was obvious that it was because of the disturbance. According to a normal transcendent power, there would be at least five high-grade heaven rank cultivation techniques. It could even be said to be a divine technique that surpassed this realm to be used as a method to suppress the sect. Zhao Xu subconsciously looked left and right, others were focused on comprehending the Tao techniques, and so he said very softly. According to the rumours that were spread earlier, our Qing Xuan Sect s could only produce a total of around ten or so Heaven Tier Cultivation Methods. As it was one of the components of the Sect''s foundation, the number of cultivation techniques it possessed could also be seen how powerful this sect was. After all, only with a high level technique would one be able to attract more disciples, and at the same time, gain the qualifications to advance to a higher level. If one was to say that they couldn''t even reach the threshold to become a supreme expert, how would those true geniuses be willing to submit to the Qing Xuan Sect? Chen Fan shook his head, he had nothing else to say. No matter how useless that third disciple of his was, he was still known as the genuine Ancient Saint Ming Rui. His reputation shook the entire continent and he had even reached the level of Human Clan''s strongest. Even if Chen Fan didn''t pay too much attention to Qing Xuan Sect, the number of lairs left behind by Cao Rui was far more than ocean counting, it was enough to ensure that they would last for tens of thousands of years. But it''s only been five thousand years, and the Qing Xuan Sect has already depleted his family''s resources, adding up the years of decline ¡­ In reality, the amount of time it took to become strong was not even close to the amount of time it took to build a sect. Now, he still had to rely on the Ancestral Skeleton to protect his Sect, he should have taken him into the Ancestral Land instead. If even Zhao Xu could hear of this news, it meant that it was not groundless news, and the real situation was not much better. With such a huge Qing Xuan Sect, he couldn''t even take out a high-grade Heaven-ranked cultivation technique. Hey, what a bunch of good people. Chen Fan suddenly thought that if this situation was known to Cao Rui in the future, he would be so angry that he would cough up blood. He wanted to go to the highest point and see how much of his family''s background the Qing Xuan Sect still had. However, looking around, there simply wasn''t any staircase that led to the fourth floor. Only elders and Sect Leader s could enter that place, and ordinary reverends did not have the qualifications, let alone Chen Fan. In the end, under the Deer God''s suggestion, he took a cultivation method called the Myriad Manifestation Divine Technique, waiting for Zhao Xu to leave at the same time. Alien Minister Chen, every disciple is able to take away at least three cultivation techniques. With your status, you can even take away a pile. Seeing that Chen Fan only had one Jade Chip, Zhao Xu indicated once again. How could a true reverend expert lose his composure like this? After spending a few days on the third floor, he should have already memorized the Earth Ranked Martial Technique to the depths of his mind. But because of Chen Fan''s cultivation, he could only think of this method, which was more realistic, and he would slowly think about it after returning to the Pingquan Peak. It''s fine, this one is enough. Don''t bite off more than you can chew. Chen Fan shook his Jade Chip, he was extremely confident. If you can''t make me a fatty in one bite, then I will have to simplify my cultivation in the future and go about my business. Zhao Xu did not nag any further, and silently memorized the words, thinking that the former had picked an excellent high levelled technique, planning to eat them to the end. With a single move, he could eat anything he wanted. But at the very last moment at the entrance of the Main Palace, when the condition of the cultivation technique was being borrowed and returned, the disciple on duty received the Jade Chip and his gaze became even more peculiar at that time. Are you sure that you only need this Myriad Manifestation Divine Technique? As the sound of his voice faded, even more gazes turned over, as though he was looking at a fool. Alien Minister Chen, ordinary disciples only have one chance to enter the Engravement Hall every month, why don''t you consider it again. Zhao Xu was also shocked. The meaning behind his words was that Chen Fan''s current treatment was no different from an ordinary outer disciple. I know, that''s all there is to it. Chen Fan was very sure, he didn''t think that there was any problem. Alien Minister Chen, if you want to choose an Earth Rank cultivation technique, you still have a lot of options. Zhao Xu had thought that Chen Fan had gotten some kind of top grade Earth Rank martial arts, but it seemed that he had thought too much into it, to the point that he did not even know how to explain himself. I feel that this Myriad Transformations Divine Technique is indeed very helpful in cultivation. Just what is going on here? Chen Fan frowned and asked, his voice had unconsciously become louder, to the point where Zhao Xu did not dare speak anymore. Sigh, this kind of person actually had the qualifications to run to the third floor. Is this considered a waste of Sect resources? For the first time, someone finally took away the Myriad Manifestation Divine Technique. It was just placed there as a decoration. Hearing the discussions from the disciples, in addition to the peculiar gazes, even Chen Fan an idiot could tell that something was amiss. In actuality, if it were any other cultivation technique, it wouldn''t have caused such a commotion. Even though it was ranked Earth Stage, the Myriad Transformations Divine Technique was nothing in the eyes of the Qing Xuan Sect disciples, they could absolutely see it ¡­ and not very useful. Many disciples who had just been promoted to the inner sect would be told by their senior brothers to never go to the Engravement Hall and use this Myriad Manifestation Divine Arts. This was a trap set up by the Sect. C41 Just look at it, or practice it properly, just experience the special feeling, but don''t put too much energy into it. An old man who was guarding the door could not help but speak. There were so many young disciples coming and going in the Engravement Hall, it was rare to see someone as foolish as him. The old man''s warning was not without reason. The Sect disciples who had previously come into contact with the Myriad Divine Arts, all of them, regardless of their innate talent or level, would curse at their mothers and send them back in the end. This was because there was a lot of borrowing power for this technique, and practically all of the external strength present in the Cultivation Realm could be absorbed at once. The most direct way was to use all kinds of Spiritual Being. Only after refining them would it activate, and the consumption was extremely huge. Even though there will be extremely rapid progress in the early stages, as long as we reach the Core Formation Stage, the disadvantage will quickly manifest. Firstly, it was to supply the God Transforming Technique to thousands of people, to be extremely rich, several times more, and even ten times the amount of Spiritual Being, in order to barely be able to sustain the next stage of cultivation. Not to mention a declining sect like the Qing Xuan Sect, even if they were placed in the Yuan Sect, they probably wouldn''t be able to support it. Secondly, the Myriad God Tactic was able to take over the vitality of the body. If one''s external strength was insufficient, then it would consume one''s blood vitality. To put it bluntly, this was like losing one''s lifespan. Who would put in so much effort to cultivate such a strange technique? With these Spiritual Being, they might as well just spend all their effort on breaking through to the next stage. Besides, who would find such things as Longevity too little. The Alien Minister Chen does not need to worry, people are cheap and know themselves, they are just a bunch of mediocre people, of course they cannot be compared with you. The reason why the Myriad Manifestation Art has been abandoned for dozens of years is to wait for you to make a move so that it can be kept in your bag. A few more disciples came over to take notes. After hearing Chen Fan''s decision, they were first stunned, and when they saw his face, they immediately changed their tone of voice. At first glance, it sounded sincere, but in reality, it was extremely sinister. Chen Fan ignored their mockery. Naturally, he had no doubts about the Deer God''s judgement. I have already roughly checked on the Myriad God Tactic. It just so happens that I have some experience in tempering the physical body and will focus on this aspect in the future. I should be able to control it. These words were just a simple reply to the old man, he had good intentions, and Chen Fan was well-mannered. There was once someone in my Qing Xuan Sect who harbored the same thought as you, and my aptitude shocked even this old man to the heavens, but unfortunately, it ended at the fourth floor of the Core Condensating. The old man shook his head and helplessly said, Young man, you have plenty of energy right now. It''s fine to do some probing, but you need to listen to the opinions of others. Protector Qi, why do you have to waste your breath? He has already hardened his heart and is determined to be the creator of our Qing Xuan Sect. Being unable to persuade him otherwise, Protector Qi did not say anything else. He was not his disciple, so he just waved his hand. Little pony, write it down for him. The guardian disciple added a spark of spiritual light and marked the Jade Chip. Actually, it was not very useful, even if it was lost, no one would care. Thanks, I''ll be careful. Chen Fan laughed, the disappointment towards Qing Xuan Sect in his heart had dropped by a few degrees. Just as he raised his foot to leave, a few young men suddenly blocked his way. Boy, our senior brother Su has already decided on this Myriad Transformations Divine Technique. Oh. Chen Fan responded as he continued to move forward. Hey, hey, hey, what are you trying to do? I said it already, Senior Brother Su Han is going to use the Jade Chip in your hands. The few of them stepped forward at the same time, blocking the entrance of the hall, and formed a faint encirclement around Chen Fan. Chen Fan laughed to himself. In all these years, he had never met with this kind of ruffian, he thought that it would be fun to argue with them. I have already marked the Allheaven Transforming Divine Art and it belongs to me during this period of time. Hehe, you better think about it. Senior Brother Su has been cultivating for quite some time and needs the help of the Myriad Manifestation Divine Arts. If you delay his breakthrough, you won''t be able to bear the consequences. Several young men spoke in turns. It was obvious that someone was directing them from behind the scenes. These words seemed as if they had already been prepared beforehand. There was someone who had asked me the same question just now, and the answer still remained the same. Chen Fan shook his head and was too lazy to reply. Oh right, if Senior Brother Su is really anxious, tell him to come to Pingquan Peak to find me. After he finished speaking, there was a human wall in front of him, forcing Chen Fan to retreat to the corner. Zhao Xu wanted to stop him, but the former indicated that he should not interfere. Thinking back to the three disciples that were violently beaten up in Hua Ding Sect, Zhao Xu was actually worried for these few youths. This time, he had angered another important character. Su Han was a thorn in the head, so he didn''t care about this kid''s status. He was the grandson of the Sixth Elder, so who would dare to be his enemy in the younger generation? The crowd discussed animatedly, all of them were in the mood to watch a good show. Protector Qi was sitting at the door of the palace in his old age, so he turned a deaf ear to everything that was happening. What, my words don''t work? A thousand shouts rang out, and a young man wearing a purple robe walked over. He looked dignified and overbearing, but there was a trace of a dark shadow at the corner of his mouth. Little fellow, don''t even think about obtaining the Myriad Manifestation Divine Technique today. People who arrive late won''t have the chance. Chen Fan said in an unconcerned tone. What did you call me? Su Han moved closer, a trace of hostility flashing across his long and narrow eyes. I am of a higher status than you, a mere inner disciple. I was personally confirmed by the elders and Sect Leader, so you should call me grandfather. Just this Chen Fan felt that he was at a disadvantage. A twenty year old brat and an old monster who had cultivated for tens of thousands of years were separated by who knew how many generations. Who do you think you are to put on airs in front of me? Su Han was infuriated. The name wasn''t bad, but it was a pity that he wasn''t that good. Chen Fan said indifferently. He felt an incomparably pure energy entering his body, and felt that it was necessary to continue with this small disturbance. The Heavenly Heart Formula had been waiting for a long time. Every single one of them was an endless supply of energy for him. Lu Ping who first had his Hua Ding Sect and now this Su Han, every single Sect seemed to have a lot of these kind of people. I''ll say it one last time, give me the Myriad Manifestation Divine Technique or else I''ll let you crawl out of the inscription hall. Su Han''s face was filled with cold air as he patiently shouted. How could he not know the weakness of the Myriad Transformations Divine Technique? However, after knowing that Chen Fan was the one to make his decision, he immediately ordered his men to rush over and blocked his with the last step. His grandfather had long regarded this fellow as a thorn in his side, and it was hard for him to show his face directly. Su Han fully displayed his thorny abilities. He didn''t care if this guy was a sacrifice or not, speaking with all his strength. C42 Don''t be so angry, we are all young people, there is no need to fall out. Ha ha, I thought you were too stubborn, but before we even started, you already gave in. Of course, with Master Chen being so powerful, how could he lower himself to attack the younger generation? He really was a coward. Just a few words and he had already softened. After hearing what Chen Fan said, everyone immediately went into an uproar. It would be better for us to directly bet on seniority. After ten rounds, if we win, the loser would lower himself or herself. In the future, when we meet in Sect, we would have to pay our respects in time. Chen Fan was already a reverend, but as a disciple of the same generation, what could he do even if he lost? Following his logic, Su Han still had to call him uncle. Moreover, he had no intention of losing. You don''t know your place. It seems that I will have to teach you a lesson. Su Han''s face darkened to the extreme. There were at least a hundred of his fellow disciples in the surrounding area. Having their seniors be so direct made him lose a lot of face. F * ck, seeking a beating! The young men from before were clearly Su Han''s lackeys. After receiving the usual signal, they swarmed over, raised their fists, and were about to attack. All of you, leave first. Su Han sneered as he looked at Chen Fan. He had to personally let this brat see blood so that he could take revenge. Swish! A light flashed in front of his eyes and the marks of Spiritual Energy s appeared in the surrounding space. Su Han reached out and struck with his hand, aiming straight at Chen Fan''s face with a sharp power. As a descendant of an elder, naturally his cultivation was not too bad. In his twenties, he already had the strength of a Qi Disciple level 8, much higher than Chen Fan. The latter easily rushed over and predicted the trajectory of this Spiritual Light. She allowed it to pierce through the wall without harming her. There was already a protective Spell Formation in the Main Palace, so this level of energy fluctuation was naturally eliminated. Senior brother Su is so amazing. He raised our prestige and made this brat act so arrogantly. Many people were applauding, but none of them noticed how Chen Fan dodged it ¡­ Having missed his first strike, the anger on his face became even more apparent than Su Han had expected. He immediately mobilized all of his strength in his body and struck out with his palm once again. The air exploded with a swishing sound, and at least a thousand pounds of force suddenly appeared in the hall, even creating a vacuum space with a radius of several zhang. If one''s physical body was lacking in brute force, then no matter how much stronger one''s cultivation was, to be able to push the opponent to such a close distance was nothing but an illusion. Chen Fan''s voice was incomparably calm, as if he was not affected by the battle at all. As the words fell into Qi shi''s ears, his muddy old eyes lit up, and only he could understand the meaning behind those words. Bang! Although it seemed like he took his time to reach out a fist, in reality, it was incomparably fast. He didn''t even give Su Han a chance to escape, as if he didn''t know how to react. Just now, he only wanted to see how strong the experts of the Qing Xuan Sect''s younger generation were. In this split-second of contact, the force dissipated and Su Han was directly sent flying, forcefully thrown into the air by that fist. With a dull thumping sound, it sounded like an incomparable amount of heartache. It was possible that there were quite a few broken bones. Such a large weight fell down without any protection. What happened? The palace hall instantly fell into a deathly silence. Everyone was extremely astonished; they never expected this kind of result. It was obvious that Su Han had the upper hand. The moment the two of them clashed, a huge force came out of Chen Fan''s body, and repelled all of the attacks. Chen Fan, you! Being pushed down to the ground by a contemptuous guy in front of so many people, Su Han was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. He pointed his finger at Chen Fan and was left speechless. He was in the wrong, the latter had first tagged the Jade Chip and then forcefully demanded it. Moreover, he had relied on the advantage of his cultivation base to make his move. No matter what, this should not be the result. What, you haven''t given me any pointers yet, right? Then I don''t mind giving you another helping hand. As he said that, Chen Fan''s leg kicked onto the kid''s back. His speed was so fast that even Protector Qi couldn''t see it. The inexplicable Suhan flew out, just in time to show the position of a dog chewing on mud and the extremely clear imprint of his shoes. Alright, let''s end this here. Fighting is not allowed in the Engravement Hall. When half of Chen Fan''s body was outside the hall door, Protector Qi spoke up to stop Chen Fan. It was obvious that Chen Fan didn''t have a good impression of Su Han either. Ah!" Chen Fan, I''m going to kill you! Su Han refused to give up. He got up and was about to continue chasing, the Spiritual Energy around his body surged, and he even took out a treasured sword. From the looks of it, there might be another fierce battle in the valley. Little pony, Suhan is injured, help him to rest over there first, don''t mess around! Protector Qi shouted sternly. His experience in Qing Xuan Sect was deep, and he had to retire these few years to be in charge of guarding the door. Hearing that he had been angered, Su Han could only suppress his anger. He dryly found a praying mat and sat down. He was thinking about something. Alien Minister Chen, I know that you aren''t worried about their revenge, but I still know that the Sixth Elder is behind Su Han. Zhao Xu followed closely behind. Along the way, no one dared to discuss further. Since I am able to give pointers, that old cow should not be a problem. Chen Fan waved his hand, gesturing towards the treasury. Anything else? Zhao Xu''s heart felt increasingly apprehensive. This master usually did not show himself easily, but once he took action, it would set off a huge commotion. Take my monthly allowance. Chen Fan turned his head, his face full of seriousness. Zhao Xu: "... He had just beaten up Su Han a moment ago, and thought that the former was really going to do something. He was already prepared to call Su Han his master, but it turned out that he was just going to collect his reward. The two of them walked forward quickly, and before long they reached the treasury. As before, there were many experts hidden, and this time the Spiritual Consciousness projected on Chen Fan''s body was obviously much sharper. It seemed that the news spread quite quickly. Everyone knew of this place. Chen Fan said to himself. The standard setting for this kind of important Sect area was the Protector and a few disciples on duty. However, the flow of people within the treasury was not as large as that within the Engravement Hall. Inside the pavilion, which had shrunk several times in size, three inner disciples were sitting in a comfortable position. This was definitely a fat job, and they were also very free. Of course, they could not casually enter the later cave and after that, a protector would personally move the Spiritual Being out. My fellow junior brothers, Alien Minister Chen and I are here to retrieve his monthly tribute. Zhao Xu went up and asked. Logically speaking, he should have sent it to the Pingquan Peak. Considering Chen Fan''s special situation, he did not expect anyone to help him run errands, so he decided to do it himself. C43 No. The disciple on duty coldly replied. Who would have thought that he would be rejected? No, Alien Minister Chen''s Sect has only recently risen, I''ll have to trouble you to check it again. Zhao Xu asked politely. If he said there was no one there, then there was none. Where did all this nonsense come from? Only after entering the Sect for at least half a year would he be qualified to receive a monthly allowance. The three disciples on duty all had the same attitude, and it was quite vile as well. There was no room for discussion at all. If I''m not wrong, this is another rule that I temporarily set up. Chen Fan''s expression was calm, he was not angry, but he spoke normally. This was the true situation he was in at the Qing Xuan Sect. So what if I am, so what if I am! One of the disciples rolled his eyes in disdain. This was pretty clear, they were targeting Chen Fan. Oh oh oh, the Supreme Wu Tian of yesteryear was called cat, dog and so on. It was so scary. Deer God looked like he was watching a good show, as he waited lazily inside the Zifu Space s for the good show to take place. Since I don''t have my monthly allowance, so be it. Chen Fan did not force it, he was not someone who needed the charity of others, furthermore, the Spiritual Being that he needed was not something that could be settled in a mere month. If you know, then hurry up and get lost. Don''t stay here and get in the way. Another disciple on duty attacked. Alright, I have another choice. I''ll borrow a million Spiritual Stone from the treasury. Chen Fan said in a clear voice. What? Am I hearing things? Hearing this, the several disciples on duty became interested. No one knew if it was a coincidence or due to some other reason, but they were all from Fifth Elder''s camp. Zhou Feng, Wang Li, Wu Qiang, and the three sword artists who had the nickname of Qing Xuan Sect. Brat, we can hear everything you say clearly that you are responsible for saying those words. Zhou Feng stood up with a hint of excitement. That''s right, a million Spiritual Stone, I, Chen Fan said. Zhao Xu almost fell butt first onto the ground as he thought to himself that this fellow must be crazy. Why should I borrow it? Seeing Chen Fan''s serious face, not seeming to be joking, Wang Li and Wu Qiang exchanged their opinions. He asked. Pingquan Peak, and the name of the Guardian, I think it should be worth these Spiritual Stone. Speaking of offering, it was indeed a good thing. It was useful within the limits of the entire Sect and it was also quite valuable. He wasn''t worried about any losses at all. Yes. Zhou Feng and the others only thought that it was a chance for them to climb up from the heavens. The Fifth Elder had already said that if he did everything he could to cause difficulties for Chen Fan, as long as he stepped out of the Pingquan Peak, he would not be able to accomplish anything. Not only Su Han, but Zhou Feng and the others had also received the message, which was why this series of incidents had occurred today. Sect is set for one month. If you do not return at that time, Pingquan Peak will retract, and you can no longer call yourself a deity. Zhou Feng took out a Jade Chip. This kind of Spiritual Stone would require both sides to insert Blood Essence s, similar to the Dao Oath, in order to receive the approval of the Sect. Otherwise, he could just casually take away a huge amount of Spiritual Stone. After handing the Jade Chip to Chen Fan, Zhou Feng and the others were about to laugh. Furthermore, they took away Chen Fan''s position of offering, so they must have received good treatment for such a large contribution. I want to spill my own blood too, don''t I? Chen Fan asked. Yes, that''s right, you only need one drop, and a million Spiritual Stone will be yours. Right now, Zhou Feng''s patience was surprisingly good. It''s simply nonsense, you inner disciples, what qualifications do you have to approve millions of Spiritual Stone s as tellers? Qin Sheng rushed over and scolded Zhou Feng and the others. Seeing that he could not stop Chen Fan, Zhao Xu went to move the reinforcements. This... Wang Li and the other two looked at each other, what they said was useless. With Protector Liu, who was in charge of guarding the treasury, he would not be able to take out that many Spiritual Stone s. Alien Minister Chen, these fellows already knew how to speak without thinking. They didn''t even open the treasury. Qin Sheng turned around to persuade Chen Fan. If I really need Spiritual Stone, I can help to gather some, there''s no need to pester them. After hearing about it, and looking at Zhou Feng''s listless appearance, Chen Fan knew that they could not rely on him anymore. Helpless, he placed the bait properly and even placed the fish on the hook. However, he had no choice but to give up. Just as he was about to leave with Qin Sheng, someone walked up to him, and said straightforwardly: I agree to one million Spiritual Stone s, is there anything else Protector Qin can do? Liu Chun just so happened to show up at the right time, and readily agreed from the mouth. And behind him was Wu Yi and a large group of other disciples, all of them being direct disciples or inner sect disciples, who had quite a high position within the Sect. The Alien Minister Chen was generous, he gave us a million Spiritual Stone, this is truly admirable. As usual, their teasing, grudges towards Chen Fan were etched deep inside their bones, and they would not be happy if they didn''t spit it out. It''s a serious matter, and I can''t agree to it alone. These are the little fellows I met on the way here. There was no doubt that Liu Chun had come prepared, how could it be so coincidental. After he received the news, he must have gathered all of the disciples under the Fifth Elder''s command. It would be better to call the other protectors over. Alien Minister Chen''s affairs were more important than handling common matters. Qin Sheng decided to break his word and negotiate through all the protectors before deciding on whether or not he should borrow the million Spiritual Stone s. Protector Qin, Alien Minister Chen, please step into the Martial Arts Practice Grounds. Liu Chun made a gesture of invitation and took the lead to lead the disciples away. This time, even Qin Sheng had nothing to say, he did his best, but it was useless against the opponent''s suppression, as the battle really started. On the Martial Arts Practice Grounds, there were a lot of people. Although it was not as spectacular as the ten thousand disciples of the day, it was still pretty close. There were more than thirty Protectors in the middle waiting for Chen Fan''s arrival calmly. Of course, most of them were on the side of the Fifth Clan Elder. As Qian De had been a strong contender for the position of Sect Leader in the past, all of the servants surrounding him had received his favor. Even though they had lost the competition later on, the old class had rooted themselves in the Sect and was intricately intertwined with each other. This also created this special situation of the current Qing Xuan Sect. In the upper echelons, Blue Rain had absolute control over the situation, but the core strength actually relied on Qian De as the overseer. You want to borrow a million Spiritual Stone? With your cultivation, you are unable to consume so many Spiritual Stone, what are your intentions? A few of the protectors started to interrogate him, as though they did not place Chen Fan in their eyes. C44 As for the title of reverend master above his head, other than Qin Sheng and Zhao Xu, no one else had ever cared about it. Why ask when you already know the conditions? Just say it out. Satisfying! Liu Chun laughed while clapping his hands. He was waiting for Chen Fan''s response. I believe everyone is aware of my current situation with my Qing Xuan Sect, that a million Spiritual Stone is not a small burden, and it will take a very long time to accumulate. These words were not false. Given the waning state of Qing Xuan Sect, wanting to obtain a million Spiritual Stone would take a longer and longer period of time. In other words, from this point of view, Liu Chun''s suggestion was quite reasonable. It really felt like it was for the sake of Sect. What, you don''t believe what I can repay, do you? Chen Fan asked. If you want to take these Spiritual Stone from the treasury, you need to make a bet with us. If anything happens, you must guarantee that they can be repaid. Liu Chun raised his hand to signal them, and all the protectors nodded their heads in unison. For the sake of fairness, you don''t have to take the risk for no reason, so we''re all involved in the gamble at the same time. These shrewd old fellows all had their own plans in mind. They couldn''t possibly let themselves suffer a loss. How much do you want to bet? Chen Fan sighed, and noted down every single face of the Protectors. It was not too late for a gentleman to seek revenge for ten years. These were all the resistance from him to rebuild his Qing Xuan Sect, and he had to remove them when necessary. In a month''s time, you cannot return these million Spiritual Stone, you need to return the Spiritual Peak and the duty of offering them back. If you can return it, we will lose to you three hundred thousand Spiritual Stone. When the surrounding disciples heard this, they immediately burst into an uproar. Strictly speaking, this was not a gamble, but simply to lure Chen Fan and sell the two things that he had accumulated by his side. Regardless of whether he won or lost, he didn''t need to pay any extraneous price to lose everything. Alien Minister Chen cannot listen to them, this is a huge pit of fire. Qin Sheng anxiously advised, but was ignored by everyone. After seven days, I will pay back double the amount and prove that I have the wealth of five million Spiritual Stone. Chen Fan''s heart skipped a beat. He had been holding back these words for a long time, if I could really do it, then everyone''s bet would have increased five times. What do you mean? Are you kidding us?! Liu Chun was a little angry. Who would believe that a cultivator who had no foundation in Sect and was only in the Refinement Realm would be able to get five million Spiritual Stone in a week? They thought Chen Fan was just spouting nonsense, with not the slightest bit of sincerity. Adding on this Ancient Token of Grand Master, they would willingly return the Qing Xuan Sect, and the stakes would increase eight times. With that, Chen Fan cut his finger and dripped his blood on the Jade Chip. However, this thing was actually not that powerful. In front of nearly ten thousand fellow sect members, regardless of whether it was Chen Fan or these protectors, they could not default on it. Ancient Token of Grand Master! Seeing the jade pendant that was floating on Chen Fan''s chest, everyone''s breathing subconsciously became heavier. Don''t look at how ordinary it was, it had an unimaginable magical effect, and did not hesitate to make Sect Leader promise to pay tribute to him! Many people felt that Chen Fan was too foolish, and that what use was there in having a dry name? Especially Liu Chun and the others, it was just as Zhou Feng had expected. If they could get this Ancient Token of Grand Master for the Fifth Elder, they would definitely get a lot of rewards. Fine, we''ll bet with you. The dozens of Protectors came to an agreement once again. They did not need to consult Qian De and could decide for themselves. Don''t go back on your words, just stay here after seven days. With that, Chen Fan and Qin Sheng left the training grounds, returning back to their own land. Alien Minister Chen, is this wager too impulsive? They are plotting something. Zhao Xu probed. He didn''t think that Chen Fan couldn''t even see through this trick. Needless to say, I have my own thoughts on this matter. He closed the wooden door and began to study the mysteries of the Myriad God Tactic. Looking at the wooden hut in front of them, Qin Sheng and Zhao Xu looked at each other speechlessly. Chen Fan sat cross legged on a praying mat, his entire being was in a state of tranquility, his expression was calm, there was no sadness nor happiness, he really had the feeling of a master of the dao. He was holding the Jade Chip in his hands, and it was enveloped by the light from the side. From time to time, it would emit some mist, which was very dense. Deer God, this thing doesn''t look too bad. Calming his mind, Chen Fan once again probed deeper into the Myriad Transformations Divine Technique and made his judgement. From his point of view, he only needed to pay attention to the advantages and disadvantages of a cultivation technique. This body of yours has the limitless space to ascend, along with ten thousand years of memories and my guidance, this is a powerful alliance. Deer God said in a rather narcissistic tone. Although it was the truth, he was so disrespectful when it came out from his mouth. It was not the fault of those disciples with the Qing Xuan Sect for not succeeding. With such a huge amount of resources expended, it was already enough to forcefully create a top-notch expert. Thinking about how there were so few Heaven Ranked techniques in the Engravement Hall, Chen Fan felt like he had picked up a treasure. The Myriad Manifestation Divine Technique could help him rebuild his firm foundation. Only by doing this could he have the qualifications to climb to the peak. As for the Spiritual Being s required for the later stages, their foundations were still so solid, so naturally, the pavilions above had to remain the same. It was a very simple logic. Even if they had to sacrifice a lot, those Spiritual Being had all entered their bodies. It was not by chance that Deer God was used to looking down from a high vantage point as if he was dominating over all living things. In short, it would be transformed into battle prowess, resulting in no one being able to do anything about it. From the perspective of the heavens, the Myriad God Arts could be considered the first choice, yet all of the disciples in the Qing Xuan Sect ridiculed them greatly. It''s not hard to accomplish a change in a short period of time. It''s quite difficult to accomplish a change in a single life, otherwise I wouldn''t have wanted to completely destroy the Qing Xuan Sect. When it came to their understanding of the dao, those fellows in the Engravement Hall, or perhaps even their entire Qing Xuan Sect, could not compare to Chen Fan alone. What he valued was the long-term future, the so called elder-level fighting strength was considered the peak in the eyes of ordinary people, but to Chen Fan, it was just the beginning. Furthermore, he still wanted to rely on his Qing Xuan Sect to reach the hegemony of the Supreme Wu Tian. Right now, people''s hearts were filled with impatience. The weakness of the Myriad Manifestation Divine Technique was that it was too stable and stable and no one was willing to cultivate it. Speaking of which, the Deer God was also sighing. C45 He had personally witnessed the Cultivator on this continent break away from the ignorance of the Wilderness, walk out of this dangerous place, and continue to grow. Now, even though his consciousness had been awakened and he was in control of the entire wasteland, his spirit and spirit had been greatly reduced. He was almost completely enveloped by the twilight energy. The Young Outstanding should have been a place for heaven and earth, but it might not even have the courage of the Savage Elder. For a few days, Chen Fan meditated on the Myriad Manifestation Divine Technique. With his ten thousand years of memories as the foundation, his cultivation speed could be said to be godly. All that was lacking was Spiritual Being s, they could only temporarily suppress the absorbing thoughts of the Myriad Manifestation Divine Arts. At the same time, the Spiritual Stone that he had borrowed came in handy. Together with Zhao Xu, they laid layers upon layers of Formation Pattern on the Pingquan Peak. This Spiritual Peak was simply too desolate, it did not even seem like it was divided into one area for cultivation, and even the Deer God had to complain about it many times. The reason why Chen Fan had borrowed those Spiritual Stone was so that he could scam those fellows, and also to cause some changes to his Pingquan Peak. Tsk tsk, I did not expect Alien Minister Chen to have such deep attainments in the Dao of arrays. He had been following by the side the entire time, listening to Chen Fan''s commands, inscribing the Formation Pattern onto the ground step by step. Seeing the Spell Formation that he had personally set up emit light, he was also very excited in his heart. To him, those Formation Pattern were no different from the Heavenly Tome Monoliths; this was another experience for the Spiritual Consciousness. It''s nothing, just practice makes perfect. Chen Fan did not mind, as long as there were enough Spiritual Stone s, in time, he would even be able to replicate the Hua Ding Sect''s big River Formation. Alien Minister Chen, my master has been busy these past two days gathering Spiritual Stone, but you know the situation of our Qing Xuan Sect, it is not very optimistic. Zhao Xu reminded his in a very tactful manner. In these two days, the number of disciples walking around the Pingquan Peak increased by quite a bit. It was clear that they were all here to watch the show, and they thought it was impossible for Chen Fan to get that many Spiritual Stone. Moreover, he had been staying in the Pingquan Peak for the past few days and hadn''t went out to walk around. He couldn''t really hope to dig out Spiritual Stone s from the ground. As for Liu Chun and the other few tens of protectors, it was unknown just how happy they were. Tell Qin Sheng that there''s no need to go and beg for help, I won''t fall to the point of needing to rely on someone else''s help. Chen Fan said, and even placed another twenty thousand Spiritual Stone into the array''s eye. Such a rough method even caused Zhao Xu to inwardly click his tongue. How about we use it a little more sparingly, since there were still so many areas that he had yet to involve himself with? It''s alright, I know in my heart that every single array formation has an abundant supply of Spiritual Energy, this is the only way to ensure the overall operation of the Spell Formation, otherwise I would have wasted my effort. Chen Fan did not say much. In Zhao Xu''s opinion, he even wanted to cover the entire Spiritual Peak with Spiritual Stone s. Heh, it seems like those two fools are setting up a formation. What exactly do you think this Chen Fan has up his sleeves? He doesn''t seem to be in a hurry at all. This is very normal, if you owe thousands of Spiritual Stone, you would definitely have to sleep soundly all night, but facing the gigantic sum of millions, designating it doesn''t matter. Beneath the Spiritual Peak, some disciples were discussing amongst themselves, but they would very soon change their focus. Nangong Xuan was already prepared to set off, but before she left, Nangong Yi specifically told her to bring the things she wanted to take with her. Haha, that''s for sure. Since he''s going to die anyway, he might as well enjoy it for two more days. On the sixth day, with less than twenty hours to go until the gambling match, Chen Fan was still calmly inscribing Formation Pattern on his Pingquan Peak, looking calm and composed. The way he was behaving made many disciples want to rush over and remind him that they clearly owed him a lot of Spiritual Stone s, how could they pretend as if nothing had happened? Even Liu Chun felt that something was amiss, Chen Fan''s performance was too calm, he had even called for a few protectors to discuss with him at the same time. To be able to gather all two million Spiritual Stone within such a short period of time, he was finally able to relax a little. Soon after, another piece of news arrived at Qing Xuan Sect, saying that Holy Maiden was about to come as a guest. This time, he had saved Zhao Xu, and was being surrounded by those strange eyes all day long. Chen Fan was fine, he was almost suffering to death. When they heard that Nangong Xuan was on her way, it was obvious that the Holy Maiden was even more attractive than him, causing Wu Guihan and a large group of people to go to the training grounds. Not only was the entire Sect shaken, even Lan Yu and the few elders treated it seriously. They naturally knew that the Hua Ding Sect had agreed to a marriage. It was very possible that Nangong Xuan was here to investigate and pick out her beloved future husband. This was a huge matter that concerned the alliance of the two sects. Ao''er, this time when the Holy Maiden comes, you have to do a good job for me. On the Spiritual Peak where Qian De was at, he was currently lecturing a young man. Grandfather, you definitely know that the Holy Maiden in Hua Ding Sect is really strange. There are so many rumors outside saying that she is an ominous thing. Zhou Ao wasn''t too satisfied with Qian De''s words, how could he go and curry favor with an ugly monster. If you can get the good impression of the Holy Maiden, at that time, this old man will help you speak a few more words. Seeing his own Grandson not being able to hold on and actually ignoring all the good fortune, Qian De could not help but want to kick him twice. As long as the two of you form a dao companion, that old fellow Nangong Yi will only have this kind of bloodline. With his full support, this Qing Xuan Sect will definitely belong to both of us. Qian De''s calculations were made out loud, and Chen Fan had the same thought himself. It was just that he did not have the intention to rely on the Holy Maiden at the moment, so he was naturally able to do it as well. Alright, then I''ll try my best. The second half of Grandson''s happiness. Zhou Ao was still complaining, thinking that he had suffered a big loss. From the looks of it, he indeed had an advantage. Not only was he tall, but he also had a handsome face and was quite famous within the Qing Xuan Sect. Relying on this piece of good skin that had caused countless of female disciples in the same sect to suddenly have to accept orders to marry an ugly monster, Zhou Ao still breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Humph, don''t think that this old man doesn''t know your thoughts. I think it''s the happiness of the lower half! Qian De snorted coldly. Even if he was disappointed in this grandson, he could only persuade him with all he had to do. After we settle Nangong Xuan, we will form an alliance with the Qing Xuan Sect. You have to work harder, and when that time comes, help this old man to pull Lan Yu down. What? Grandfather, are you really going to become a Sect Leader? Hearing this, Zhou Ao became interested. It was one aspect of being true to one''s word in Sect, but becoming a real Sect Leader was another aspect. With Qian De''s current influence, he was still missing out on this great temptation. C46 Ao''er, with the support of you and that old fellow Nangong Yi, no matter how much I try to rope him in, under the combined power of the two of them, even if Lan Yu has the means, he would still retreat. Qian De said sincerely. He was very clear about Zhou Ao''s temperament, but it was not good to force him. When I become a Sect Leader, it will not be for you alone. What kind of peerless beauty do I want in the future? Before he finished speaking, Zhou Ao was already very excited, looking forward to his beautiful future, and immediately patted his chest. Grandfather, don''t worry, Grandson will not disappoint me. It''s just a mere Holy Maiden, he won''t be able to escape from my grasp. The same scene played out in multiple Spiritual Peak s. The seven great elders, and even Bai Yu who was about to ascend the ranks, secretly unleashed their powers. Whether it was giving advice to their own juniors, or finding a disciple they valued more highly, they would agree to it at the last minute. In short, Qing Xuan Sect''s elites were all highly sought after. And the orders they received were all Nangong Xuan''s. When Chen Fan heard of this news, and also heard about the unusual movements of the elders in the Sect, he lamented in his heart. In the Northern Barbaric Land, such a large Qing Xuan Sect was known as a transcendent power. But now, for the sake of a girl, they had to go up and down so quickly. In his eyes, this sect had already completely decayed. Any reformation would be impossible, and he could only overturn and rebuild it. There was no other way. Alien Minister Chen, should we also go take a look? Holy Maiden should be at the Martial Arts Practice Grounds. Zhao Xu asked. He still knew his own limits very well. He was only going to the Hua Ding Sect to propose marriage, marriage alliance was definitely not something that had anything to do with them. After running, who cares? No, she will come. The Spell Formation s above the Spiritual Peak had already been completely set up. Chen Fan sat down and meditated calmly, putting on a cup of fragrant tea, and waited silently. Zhao Xu: "... If he hadn''t personally witnessed the various wonders of the Hua Ding Sect, he definitely would have thought that this fellow was crazy. How could a dignified Holy Maiden who had descended upon the Qing Xuan Sect come to this run-down little place like Chen Fan? In the end, the latter waited quietly with confidence, which was simply insane. naturally did not dare to say what he was thinking in his heart. Even though Chen Fan''s strength was only at the sixth level of Qi Cultivating Stage, he did not have the guts to be so presumptuous in front of the latter. Very quickly, it was already noon. Two elders personally welcomed Nangong Xuan and led the group to Pindu Peak. Different from Qing Xuan Sect, Hua Ding Sect was currently a transcendent power that was second only to Yuan Sect in the entire Southern Domain. It was firmly in the second position. Therefore, Lan Yu and the rest had made sufficient preparations, and even specially arranged a courtyard for them to stay. Unexpectedly, there was only one old and one young, the two of them were brought over. Because she was here to treat his sickness, Nangong Xuan did not put on such a grand show. In order to ensure her safety, Nangong Yi intentionally sent out a powerful Guardian to accompany him. How have you been at the Blue Sect Leader? This old one has come to visit again. The white haired old man was the first to speak with a smile on his face. It was obvious that he was familiar with Lan Yu. I didn''t expect Nangong Yi to entrust the responsibility of escorting us to an old guy like you. Lan Yu clapped his hands and laughed, his words carried an edge. His name was Feng Tuo, and even though he was a Rogue Cultivator, his strength was rather strong. He had once served in the Qing Xuan Sect for a period of time, and was then pulled over by Nangong Yi himself. Because of this, Qing Xuan Sect and Hua Ding Sect were a little unhappy, but there was nothing they could do. After all, their own family had declined, and they could not keep others around for a long time. Holy Maiden is a precious body and also an honored guest of my Qing Xuan Sect. You must take note that if anything were to happen to you, this old man will not do anything. The First Elder stared at him with a deep meaning in his words. It''s just me jumping off the job into Hua Ding Sect, you old things shouldn''t be so sarcastic towards me, right? Feng Tuo was very familiar with the few elders in the hall, and was speaking with even less worry. This was also the reason why Nangong Yi sent him over. If there really was an accident, then Feng Tuo would act in a much more convenient manner than any other elder. This is the Holy Maiden of my Hua Ding Sect, Nangong Xuan. Come, come, let me introduce you. Lan Yu and the few elders ¡­ Feng Tuo introduced the higher ups of Qing Xuan Sect one after another. However, in front of Nangong Xuan, these old fellows all felt that it was a little too low. If Nangong Yi had personally come, he probably wouldn''t have felt this way. After all, they were all cultivators of the same generation. It just so happened that Nangong Xuan was a member of the younger generation, and was known as the Holy Maiden. The entire Qing Xuan Sect had to more or less curry favor with her, causing Lan Yu and the others to feel embarrassed. His family''s humiliation was hidden, not only did he have to reveal it, he also had to ask for Nangong Xuan''s help. Hehe, how is your grandfather recently? I heard that he had been in closed door cultivation for a while, so I''m afraid he has made some improvements. Lan Yu asked with a face full of kindness. Very well, it''s because of your Qing Xuan Sect that Chen Fan was so angry. Feng Tuo rushed to answer, as he had been concealing Nangong Xuan from the start, whether intentionally or unintentionally. What? That brat still dared to be so impudent. He truly did not know the limits of heaven! Hmph, he is really too excessive. Relying on the fact that he has a handle in his hand, I thought this Qing Xuan Sect is his. Relax, Chen Fan won''t be able to live for more than a few days, so I''ll send him to your esteemed sect another day to apologize to Sect Leader Nan Gong in person. Hearing the shouts of the few elders, Nangong Xuan frowned slightly. It seemed that Chen Fan''s life in the Qing Xuan Sect wasn''t that easy. A few old things, how could they possibly be angry in front of a junior, you better not scare us, Holy Maiden. Feng Tuo hurriedly advised. He was only joking around. Feng Tuo was very clear about the extent of Nangong Yi''s importance to him, but who knew that these elders had the same expression as if they were enemies? He couldn''t help but have many guesses. Zhou Ao, come over here quickly. Qian De changed the topic of his conversation and called out to them. We are already a group of old fellows, we wouldn''t even be able to say it together. We must take good care of Holy Maiden when we go through the Qing Xuan Sect. Hearing that, the few elders knew that, in front of so many people, he must be planning to ''contribute'' to Holy Maiden by introducing his grandson to them, so that they could become Dao-companions. However, he was the only one who could bring Zhou Ao to this place. The other elders more or less had to take into account Lan Yu''s attitude. He still had not determined which Young Outstanding he would choose, and which one he would be betrothed to using Qing Xuan Sect. All of the thoughts that he would have in his head started moving in a private place, as he would not directly destroy the window paper like Qian De. C47 Not bad, not bad, your grandson has also heard of this. At such a young age, he has a unique insight into cultivation. Feng Tuo let out a laugh. His goal for coming here was also to help introduce the Young Outstanding, although how could he have heard of Zhou Ao''s name in the Hua Ding Sect? I am Zhou Ao, and am very happy to meet Holy Maiden. Zhou Ao took the initiative to go up and greet him. He started to recommend himself and thought that this person was not as terrifying as he had imagined. Yes. However, Nangong Xuan''s reaction was extremely cold and detached. She did not wear a veil today, and it was also a great change for her that resulted in her giving up quite a bit of courage. After Chen Fan removed the birthmark on her face, he no longer had that disgusting grayish-black color, and had regained his average appearance. Although his name was not related to the Holy Maiden, he still dared to come out and meet people. The few elders still have things to discuss with each other, why don''t we go outside first? Our Qing Xuan Sect is still quite unique. Zhou Ao opened his mouth and invited them. Lan Yu and the rest all nodded their heads, it fit well with their plan, it would be best if they let Nangong Xuan stay, because with that, everything was settled. However, the latter didn''t have that many thoughts. Just as she walked out of the great hall, she immediately rejected Zhou Ao''s suggestion. Where is her Pingquan Peak? Ah? Zhou Ao was startled, and thought that Nangong Xuan knew about Chen Fan''s terrible deeds. That''s not a good place, forget it, let''s go somewhere else. Our Qing Xuan Sect has had a freak recently. No no no, I have matters to attend to with Alien Minister Chen, so I have to go there today. Nangong Xuan shook her head. Since she had the time to wander around, she might as well start treating the patient. Alien Minister Chen? Just when Zhou Ao wanted to say that his Qing Xuan Sect did not contain such a number, Chen Fan''s figure flashed past his mind, and he had never been treated as a Guardian. Alright, then I''ll send you over. There are two more scenery spots on the way, haha. Even Zhou Ao felt that his hollow laugh was awkward. He was being treated like this when he was rushing up to warm up his face, but he still held hope. The person who had went to the Hua Ding Sect to propose marriage was Chen Fan. Maybe they had only met once, so Nangong Xuan wanted to find a familiar face to accompany him. No need, no need, I just came here, how can I trouble you? Please tell me in which direction I should probably be. Nangong Xuan still continuously refused. Even though she hadn''t really left her Hua Ding Sect in all these years, she could feel that this guy in front of her was definitely up to no good. Even if my Qing Xuan Sect isn''t as majestic as the Hua Ding Sect s, I still have several tens of Spiritual Peak s. I need to walk a long distance from here to there. Zhou Ao was making his last struggle. He had chatted with countless people of the opposite sex in his life, but he had never been rejected in a row like this. Then I''ll wait here for a while. Master Feng will come with me. Nangong Xuan was extremely intelligent, with one sentence from him she had hit a vital point, she did not dare to be long-winded, if he was really found guilty of not being well-received, she would definitely be scolded by Qian De. Hmph, do you really think you are some Holy Maiden? You are just a pawn, what man would be married to you if he was blind if he had such an ugly appearance! With no other choice, he pulled Nangong Yi out and scolded him angrily a few times in his heart, but on the surface, he still revealed a faint smile. You will point the direction for the Holy Maiden and send it to the Pingquan Peak. Looking at Nangong Xuan''s departing figure, Zhou Ao''s face was filled with malevolence and fury. If it was another sect''s Holy Maiden, he would definitely reveal a greedy look. Alien Minister Chen, if there''s nothing else, I''ll be leaving first. Zhao Xu was still a little curious, he had already wanted to take a look at the legendary Holy Maiden to see what it looked like. No, you''ll get your wish soon. Chen Fan naturally knew what he was thinking. What did this mean? Zhao Xu did not understand. Wasn''t this how they came? Following Chen Fan''s movements, Zhao Xu also looked over, and a beautiful figure walked over. Long time no see. Nangong Xuan first greeted them. It was very different from the time she was in the palace. It''s not what you think, is it? Chen Fan did not hide anything and asked straightforwardly. No, no, no, how could that be? What could Zhao Xu say, he could only wave his hand. We''ve already seen it. Go and busy yourself first, we still have things to do. Chen Fan indicated, and dispelled the remaining resentment in his heart. He could not allow anyone else to be present, as it would be easy to get hurt by mistake. Can we begin? Nangong Xuan could not wait any longer. The biggest reason for this trip was for this face, as well as the grievances in her body. After Chen Fan left, Nangong Yi searched for many records regarding the Heaven''s resentment and the devil''s body. Only after comparing them did he realize just how frightening this kind of physique was. He could only turn to Chen Fan for help. Resting first, I got a little tired after walking for so long on the Spell Formation. Chen Fan caught her attention and was in the midst of preparing himself. You are... She Luo Spell Formation? Only after hearing his explanation did Nangong Xuan come back to her senses. She kept having the feeling that the atmosphere of this Spiritual Peak was a little familiar, it was actually the same as the Sect Protection Array of the Hua Ding Sect. After living under the protection of the River Spell Formation for twenty years, Nangong Xuan was very clear on the movements of the Formation Pattern under her feet. Chen Fan had only stayed in the Hua Ding Sect for a few days, after returning, he brought out a large amount of Spell Formation s on this acre of land. Well, sort of. Chen Fan did not deny it, but in reality, compared to the Sect Protection Array of the Hua Ding Sect, his handiwork should be more exquisite, after all, he did it himself. You have already understood our River Spell Formation?! Nangong Xuan was greatly shocked in her heart, and her face revealed an expression of complete disbelief. If Chen Fan wanted to help the Yuan Sect launch an attack, as long as he used a surprise attack, the elders would have no way of resisting. Don''t be so nervous, I''m just a nobody, there won''t be any threat from your Hua Ding Sect. Chen Fan was too lazy to explain anything to her, and he wasn''t worried about Nangong Yi finding out. Ask your family''s old man, and he''ll tell you. It''s better to treat the patient first. The rest has nothing to do with me. Taking a deep breath, Nangong Xuan asked. Do we need to go to a bigger place? Just as Deer God had complained, Chen Fan''s place was extremely shabby. Even the hall was only a few tens of meters in radius, which was much different from the size of a Sect Guardian. C48 No problem anywhere, but you have to pay first. Chen Fan extended his hand. Ah? Nangong Xuan never thought that Chen Fan would be so direct. Five hundred thousand Spiritual Stone would do, it would be a deposit. Chen Fan said loudly, but in truth, his old face was also hot. This was the first time he asked for Spiritual Stone s in such a way, making it difficult for a hero to pay a single cent. Uh, I''ll give you four million, and we''ll talk about the rest after this treatment is over, okay? Nangong Xuan lightly waved her hand, and in a flash of white light, the Storage Bag by her waist came down and opened its mouth, releasing a dense Spiritual Energy aura. I only have two Storage Bag here, packed according to one million each, don''t mind them. Chen Fan''s heart suddenly twitched. He told himself forcibly that a dignified Supreme Wu Tian would never lose control over such a small amount of Spiritual Stone. Deer God was about to go crazy from laughter. What a pity. Ye Zichen pinched his palm and pretended to nod calmly. Then, he waved his hand and piles of hills appeared in the room. All of the Spiritual Stone were placed in front of his eyes, the entire room was instantly covered by the fog. It was hazy and his vision seemed to become blurry. He greedily took a deep breath, and even the spirit energy rushed to enter his body. Previously, when Chen Fan borrowed a million Spiritual Stone from the treasury, he didn''t think much of it. The visual impact was not as simple as it was from one to four. Any ordinary person would have fainted. It could be seen that Nangong Yi was indeed very attentive. The purity of these Spiritual Stone were all very high and the light they emitted was rather gentle. It made others feel an uncontrollable urge to pounce on him. Fortunately, Chen Fan had already calmed down a lot. He did not even take a glance at the hundreds of millions of Spiritual Stone. It was just that I hadn''t felt it in too long, and everything was a little unusual. Chen Fan silently explained in his mind. He had been starving for too long, and sometimes, when he saw the sow he would even have fantasies. Poor Supreme Wu Tian, to bend his waist for money. Deer God laughed sinisterly. If he did not know, then it would be fine. However, when a normal person sees a huge amount of Spiritual Stone, they would not be able to sit still. The problem was that the Deer God knew very well that Chen Fan''s past stood at the peak of the continent. And now that he had been reduced to such a state by the millions of Spiritual Stone, he was as happy as he could possibly be. Nangong Xuan also frowned, this was just too similar to those local people who were rich, they were determined to keep everything in front of them, not only did they feel at ease, they were also happy to see this. Let''s begin. Chen Fan recovered his original color and sat cross-legged on the ground, silently channeling the Myriad Manifestation Divine Arts. There was nothing he could do, the reason why he wanted to get his hands on these Spiritual Stone was mainly because he couldn''t support himself with his current level of cultivation. With Chen Fan acting as the lead, threads of pure energy began to surge in the surroundings, but it poured into his body. Sensing the energy that was like a vast ocean surging back and forth in his meridians, Chen Fan was elated. It had been a long time since he had felt this kind of feeling. He immediately placed his hands on Nangong Xuan''s back and urged her Heavenly Heart Formula to spread inside the latter''s body. At this time, Nangong Xuan''s face was already completely flushed red. Earlier, during the treatment, it was over before she could even react, and her heart was even more excited. He simply did not notice Chen Fan''s actions at all. Merely his hands did not amount to much, but his Spiritual Consciousness had spread throughout his entire body. In other words, Nangong Xuan''s entire person had been seen through by him, so the existence of this layer of clothes was negligible. Don''t have any other thoughts. Concentrate and don''t blame me for affecting the healing process. When Chen Fan''s voice came out, he clearly felt Nangong Xuan''s body becoming a little stiff. She had already ordered a few vials of ambergris beforehand, but it had more or less taken effect. Coupled with the soothing feeling coming from within her body, it gradually calmed her down and made her feel a lot more relaxed. Not a single inch of his flesh could be let go, so he used his four limbs to continue searching for it, and discovered that Nangong Xuan''s resentment was much greater than what he had imagined. Weng! * A rumbling sound came out, but at the same time it was indiscernible. Nangong Xuan could feel that something had been pulled out, it was extremely strange, and somehow, she felt carefree. It was a mass of black fog, about the size of a thumb''s belly. It was forcefully separated from the host''s body and kept twisting around like a water snake. He unhesitatingly conjured a large hand, immediately enveloping it and producing a series of crackling sounds. After confirming that he had controlled it, it was transferred to Chen Fan''s palm. It was truly submerged, not dissolved in front of Nangong Xuan. Doing that would be too wasteful for Chen Fan. His method was simple, but it was also the most effective. He extracted the grudges bit by bit, then refined them in the air by Master Lin. Finally, he transferred them into his dantian. At the moment, the Myriad Transformations Divine Technique was already prepared. This technique had the same effect as the Heavenly Heart Formula, it covered a wider area, but it was not as sharp as it was. They might as well use the Heavenly Heart Formula to erase the poisonous substance in their resentment, and then use the Myriad Manifestation Divine Arts to devour it, and it would transform into their original state of spiritual energy. Just treat it as you slept. When you woke up, the number of nightmares you had for the past twenty years had decreased by another three years. Chen Fan made an unsuitable analogy. If he could, he would have taken away all his resentment. She could only wish to directly squeeze Nangong Xuan dry. However, expelling grudges required a lot of energy, and the current him needed the support of the Spiritual Stone to be able to execute it, let alone accomplish it in one go. The entire initial preparation had been to increase Chen Fan''s strength, but he had more of the time acted as a medium to transmit. In the end, it would be Chen Fan who would act to suppress it, and then, it would turn it into true cultivation, and only then would it be considered as having completed the expulsion of a strand of grievance. After all these grudges have been cleared out, he should be able to cultivate normally. Nangong Xuan asked. Originally, she was born in a noble family, but there was a huge disparity between them. Do you think that cultivation will be troubled by resentment? The reason why he could heal Nangong Xuan, aside from being able to help him recover his strength, was also because of the importance of the potential of his body. Originally, the impact wasn''t too great, but after hearing the diagnosis and treatment of the Alien Minister Chen, they would often feel the formless obstruction of their resentment, and even the circulation of the Spiritual Energy would slow down. After pondering for a while, Nangong Xuan answered honestly. This may sound a little awkward, but the patient needed to have enough trust and honesty in the doctor. This is very normal, after the expulsion of the grudges, Chen Fan gestured, I have already painted a ''bastard'' on your face. If you don''t tell me, you will definitely be full of confidence, and will walk out as usual. C49 However, if someone reminded you, even if you didn''t say that there was a bastard on your face, you would definitely want to see what it was. Nangong Xuan: "... It all sounded so disgusting on her face. Kid, with your level of comparison, not only do you not understand, even dogs become confused listening to you. Deer God could not help but ridicule. He also had a similar understanding of Heaven''s Grudge Body. If he was the one explaining it, he definitely wouldn''t need to put so much effort into it. Well, in short, resentment isn''t bad for you at all. Instead, it''s helped to improve your body over the years. Chen Fan had to suspect whether he had been asleep for too long that even his ability to express himself was crippled. All right. Nangong Xuan thoughtfully nodded his head, but his head was still full of fog. She decided to ask Nangong Yi about it. In reality, grudges were constantly strengthening her body, however, the way they were taken was more extreme, and it was carried out in the opposite direction, which was contrary to the understanding that one had of Human Clan. For example, when Chen Fan first met Nangong Xuan, he had directly asked that question. However, if she was born in the Sea Clan, she wouldn''t have such a weird gaze. Even without Chen Fan''s help, the Heaven''s resentment and the Evil Body would not have been able to harm Nangong Xuan at all. Otherwise, signs would have appeared a long time ago. While he was speaking, another strand of resentment was once again extracted. This time, it seemed to be thicker, and the movement in the air was also getting larger. Sssii! * In the blink of an eye, it was grabbed by the two large hands and was unable to move. It was like a viper that had been hit seven inches. One moment it was abnormally fierce and immediately withered into a wooden stick. After entering his body familiarly, it circulated through his entire body along his meridians. In a few breaths of time, Chen Fan sensed another slight increase in his cultivation. As the sky gradually darkened, the two of them did not look exhausted at all. They continued to repeat the same actions, robotic, over and over again. This process was destined to continue for a long time. Nangong Xuan''s Heaven''s Grief Body had been brought out from her mother''s womb, and was also a genuine Innate object. To her, this was naturally terrifying. The girl was so resentful that her face was completely ruined. She was suffering from the ridicule coming from all directions and had a taste in her mouth that was difficult to put into words. How was it? Where did he go to play with Holy Maiden today? After finishing a day''s worth of miscellaneous work, Qian De''s mood was elated. She had personally come to inform him of the bet. Tomorrow was already the deadline, so even if Chen Fan was squeezed dry, it would still be impossible to get so many Spiritual Stone out. Grandfather, Grandson is useless, Nangong Xuan has been using her Pingquan Peak for the entire day, she can''t stop it no matter what. Zhou Ao braced himself and replied. Even he himself felt that it was very embarrassing. What? Hearing that, Qian De could not sit still any longer, he smashed the wooden table with a slap, what the hell are you doing? Normally, he would go out all day to play tricks on others, but why did he fail at such a crucial moment?! I had originally planned to take her to visit the Sect, but who would have thought that she would directly go to Chen Fan, not listening to my advice. When he thought about how Nangong Xuan called him Alien Minister Chen, it was as if a thorn was pricking her heart. Hmph, it''s that kid again. I''ll definitely teach him a lesson tomorrow! Qian De was also furious. His plan was so perfect, with a Chen Fan appearing out of nowhere. Fortunately, Qian De had already grasped his mingmen. Qian De sneered, and started to think about how he could humiliate him in the martial arts arena. To be able to get the Ancient Token of Grand Master and take the chance to strip him of his position of offering and drive him out of Qing Xuan Sect, must be to the advantage of the people. Yes, grandfather, you''d better go in person tomorrow, so he won''t cause any trouble. Zhou Ao''s face revealed a bit of hostility, as he wished for Chen Fan to be humiliated. From the moment the latter asked to borrow a million Spiritual Stone, this trap had already been laid out. Alright, alright, you go and try again tomorrow. Without Chen Fan, that bastard, Nangong Xuan would probably have some improvements. If not for his age being too old and his seniority being inappropriate, he would have had the heart to personally go and pursue Nangong Xuan. You and I, grandsons and grandsons, all have a future in this girl, and you have to be very careful. Grandson has remembered it, Grandfather, you can rest assured. Chen Fan just relied on this chance to meet me once, and was definitely not my opponent. Zhou Ao was completely confident. Nangong Xuan had gone to the Pingquan Peak! Her movements seemed to have attracted the attention of almost the entire Qing Xuan Sect, especially when someone personally saw Nangong Xuan enter the Pingquan Peak and didn''t come down again until night. Including Lan Yu, all the clan elders were shocked. Their first reaction to Zhou Ao was almost the same as his, as they thought that taking the initiative to get acquainted with him was not a big deal. However, when they wanted Feng Tuo to go and bring Nangong Xuan back, the old fellow gave all sorts of excuses and didn''t move a muscle no matter what. It was only then that Lan Yu and the others realized that something was wrong. It was certain that Feng Tuo was still hiding something, but in the end, he was not a Guardian of the Qing Xuan Sect, so they couldn''t ask around. With Feng Tuo''s strength and the close relationship he had with Nangong Yi, sending him out to protect Nangong Xuan was similarly a form of trust. Do not disturb Chen Fan and Holy Maiden ¡­ Other people also warned their disciples not to speak nonsense at the Pingquan Peak s as it would cause misunderstandings. After some urgent discussions, Lan Yu felt that it was best not to interfere too much. All the discussions from before, were all within his control. Borrowing the constant ridicule and teasing, he continuously reminded Chen Fan that his position was still not right and that he shouldn''t rely on just one Ancient Token of Grand Master to eat the whole world. Ai, this kid is lucky again. This is too much. The few elders agreed, but then they thought that if Chen Fan was really favored by the Holy Maiden, that would be truly troublesome. Sigh, the tides have turned. You all want to be a bit more open, but you must maintain a sufficient amount of stability before the Holy Maiden returns. Lan Yu waved his hands. If necessary, he would have to act on his own. The matter of the marriage was of utmost importance. No matter who he was involved in and which side''s disciple he was from, he had to serve the marriage and it would be even more impossible for him to arouse the Holy Maiden''s displeasure. That night, many people slept soundly, but many people could not fall asleep. They did not know that they had been targeted by this pair of old geezers for a long time. The next day, the sun had risen high into the sky and the gentle sunlight shone down onto the land. After an entire night of hard work, Chen Fan had finally reached his limit. C50 Coincidentally, Nangong Xuan had lost a lot of Spiritual Consciousness as well, so the two of them needed to first relax and end the treatment. Well, pay. Chen Fan said the first thing he said after opening his eyes. Nangong Xuan: "... He casually threw a Storage Bag over to Chen Fan and rolled his eyes. Take care to rest more. The resentment has just been cleared and should not consume too much energy. After a bit of investigation, Chen Fan gave some instructions and then left in a hurry. Grandfather said that humans die for wealth while birds die for food. This was indeed the truth. Nangong Xuan said to herself. She did not interact too much with outsiders, and many of them were passed down to Nangong Yi through word of mouth, loving her darling granddaughter to the extreme. In her eyes, Chen Fan was clearly a shrewd merchant, who treated money as his life, and could not wait to shine two rays of light in his eyes. Zhou Ao, who prided himself as an elegant young master, purposely dressed himself up. After figuring out the standards of Nangong Yi''s son-in-law and changing into a silk green robe, he looked even taller, yet not losing in stature, and did not seem to be that skinny. With his hair tied up in a bun, he had a three foot long sword at his waist, which was embedded with a rare purple jade stone which was just right for the ring shaped pendant. He was extremely confident and directly stepped onto the Pingquan Peak. It''s just an ugly monster, and it''s worth me spending so much effort on. There are only a few men that can make me endure such humiliation. Muttering softly, Zhou Ao unconsciously straightened his back even more. In his opinion, even taking the initiative to throw herself into his arms would cause Nangong Xuan to feel disgusted, let alone with her excellent conditions, the former had no reason to reject him. They went straight up, and did not encounter any obstructions. In order to make it easier for Nangong Xuan to get in and out, Chen Fan intentionally closed all of the Spell Formation s. Chen Fan was not there, if there was anything he could do, she would go to the Martial Arts Practice Grounds to look for him. Upon seeing that it was Zhou Ao, Nangong Xuan opened her mouth first, choking back her words. She didn''t have a good impression of this fellow yesterday, and she wasn''t an idiot either. She was able to see through his intentions, but to think that he would be here today as well. No no no, I''m here to look for Holy Maiden, may I ask ¡­ Before he finished speaking, Zhou Ao had walked to the front of the house and was instantly stunned by what he saw. He had seen Nangong Xuan yesterday, and moreover, he had faced her face many times. Thus, he was able to recognize her at a glance. Liu Ye''s eyebrows, apricot core eyes, cherry lips, and an exquisite appearance that could suffocate anyone, almost all of her advantages were put together. This was actually Nangong Xuan''s true face. After the resentment in his body had been expelled, his body briefly returned to normal, but it would still change back in the near future. Only after she had undergone seven cycles of reincarnation did she reach perfection. Such a perfect face, was something that even Chen Fan couldn''t help but suspect after seeing it. How could Nangong Yi, who had such a terrible old man''s appearance, have such a beautiful granddaughter? This was simply a slender and graceful white lotus. It was extremely pure, and did not have any blemishes on it, so it was even more unbearable to let her be tainted a little. But very quickly, this guy was dominated by his nature, and a few charming images flashed past his mind. Zhou Ao subconsciously swallowed his saliva, as he made up his mind that he would definitely get this girl into his grasp, and he would have no regrets in his life. This lady is Zhou Ao, the eldest grandson of the Fifth Elder of the Qing Xuan Sect. Nobody dared to reject him, and they were even more worried that he would offend the former because of Qian De. However, his words had no effect on Nangong Xuan. Eunuch Zhou, just the two of us on this Spiritual Peak alone is not too good. If it''s convenient, then please step into the Martial Arts Practice Grounds. Although she had not interacted much with outsiders over the years, she was incomparably intelligent, especially towards observing the actions of the bystanders, which could roughly determine her character. A rookie like Zhou Ao had a blackened heart. Almost all of it was written on his face, or it could be said that he did not have the consciousness to hide his thoughts. No matter where he went, there would always be people around, calling him Young Master Zhou, so how could Zhou Ao care about anything else. Hence, the thick, wretched look in his eyes made Nangong Xuan feel really disgusted. There was no need to go there. Chen Fan was definitely going to die anyway, and still wishfully wanted to get two million Spiritual Stone. Zhou Ao twitched his mouth in disdain. With his grandfather here, he wouldn''t notice anything amiss. Two million Spiritual Stone? Nangong Xuan thought about it, it seemed that Chen Fan had mumbled something about using the money he had brought as reward, but he didn''t pay attention to it. Oh, by the way, what''s your name? Zhou Ao used his second move. First, he wanted to seduce the opposite sex with an attractive topic, and then deliberately reveal half of his story. If he wanted to continue the conversation, he would have to expose more information about himself. Zhou Xiaoxuan. Thinking about this guy''s surname, Nangong Xuan casually made it up. Oh, what a coincidence, you and I have the same surname, perhaps a few hundred years ago we were family, what fate! Zhou Ao said excitedly. It was rare for him to have such a good reason. Hmm, hope, you just said what happened to Chen Fan? Nangong Xuan was still more concerned with the latter''s situation, after all, she still had to point at him and treat herself. At the same time, even though she had only been on the second day of Qing Xuan Sect, she had already sensed the ridicule directed at Chen Fan. Needless to say, he owed the treasury a whole million Spiritual Stone, and he even magnanimously asked Protector Liu and the others to pay back double the debt. Do you think he''s an idiot? When he thought about his nemesis, Zhou Ao felt an itch in his teeth, even though the two of them had yet to communicate through words. It''s pretty funny, where did he get so many Spiritual Stone, I''m afraid they have to sell themselves to gather them all. Nangong Xuan''s heart moved slightly as he had a strange idea. Since this brat saw himself as someone else, he might as well make the best of it and reveal some inside information. Didn''t he just meet your master? To be fair, these two were a match made in heaven. One of them was foolish, while the other was ugly. It was simply a match made in heaven and earth. Hahaha! With regards to ridiculing Chen Fan, Zhou Ao had suddenly become interested. With regards to Nangong Xuan''s treatment yesterday, he was similarly brooding over it. I am only a straightforward person, and would rather talk about the truth, that is just looking at how beautiful you are, I just want to talk a few more words, don''t tell Nangong Xuan ah. C51 I also think that the Holy Maiden is not that great. I heard that when I was young, I scared the dogs when I went out, so I almost caught up with the Black and White Impermanence. Nangong Xuan calculated, and said with a self-deprecating tone, secretly probing Zhou Ao. Really, you don''t know how difficult it is for me to do so. We are the number one gongzi of Qing Xuan Sect, and we wasted our money on that ugly woman for no reason. The naive Nangong Xuan still didn''t know that she had been hooked and didn''t hesitate at all. After hearing Nangong Xuan''s words, she came up with the idea and revealed it to him, thinking that they had a common topic to discuss. Heh heh, you are quite a funny person. As a man, what do you have to say that you are being looked down upon? Nangong Xuan covered her face and chuckled, but in reality, she was enduring a great deal of disgust. If nothing unexpected happened, he would have to marry into the Qing Xuan Sect in the future. Nangong Xuan naturally had to first understand this. However, with the Holy Maiden''s name on her head, no one would be able to tell the truth, much less see through the real situation. The best way was to use his status as a spectator to indirectly observe the attitudes of the various parties, especially a descendant like Zhou Ao. Many of his actions were carried out with the will of the higher ups of the Qing Xuan Sect behind them. Or at least half of it came from the elders. Of course, with her pride, she would be able to match up to my grandmother, who has been dead for so many years. Zhou Ao did not hide his ridicule at all. His facial features were almost twisted and revealed an extremely disgusted expression, as if he had been scared to the point that the dog had a close relationship with him. However, a beauty as beautiful as this young lady is already a little wronged following by the ugly woman''s side. Being able to follow by her side is truly amazing. This humble one truly admires you. Zhou Ao didn''t know how many times he had said these words, but they were all all different kinds of excuses. The female disciples who tried to fawn and deceive Qing Xuan Sect would be able to pull him back safely with a single push. Even if he failed and the fifth elder intimidated him, there was no need for him to personally step in. He could just find two experts to deal with all the trouble. Who knows how reluctant I was when I received this mission, but there was nothing I could do. The order to Sect didn''t allow me to struggle at all, or else I could only be expelled from the Hua Ding Sect. This was not a temporary response from Nangong Xuan, but a true response from him. Previously, she did have two servants, but one of them would be muttering at the door. She thought that Nangong Xuan wouldn''t be able to hear her, but in reality, she could channel her soul energy into her head. After realising that the servant girl had insulted him, Nangong Xuan still felt terrible for a long time. In the end, she dismissed the servant along with the other maid and did not pursue their responsibility. Nangong Xuan was very understanding, if he stayed by her side and waited on her for too long, it might affect her future, and even marrying her would be difficult. As long as they heard that it was a servant of the, they would definitely be detested. They don''t have a grandfather in the Sect Leader either, so the influence would definitely be even greater. If young lady wants to get rid of that ugly woman, I, Qing Xuan, am still a transcendent power in the Profound Sky Continent, and the gate will always be open for you. The perverted Zhou Ao finally started to reveal his fox tail, following his usual style. If Nangong Xuan believed his beautiful words, she was afraid that it wouldn''t take long before she was abandoned. It''s not good like this, it''s just normal to follow them outside, I just stayed in the Qing Xuan Sect, I still don''t know your rules yet, and maybe I''ll be pushed out. Nangong Xuan said with a troubled look on her face. As she moved him step by step, Zhou Ao did not notice in the slightest that she had already walked to the edge of the pit and was about to jump down. Haha, this is not something I would casually boast about. In this Qing Xuan Sect, as long as you announce my name, no one would dare to go against this young lady. I heard that their attitude towards Holy Maiden and this marriage was very vague, and I am also Holy Maiden''s maid ¡­ If you don''t say it like that, and if this lady truly has any ulterior motives, I will inform Grandfather about it right now. From now on, you will live in my Spiritual Peak, and it will be very safe. Zhou Ao had already prepared for this, and when he thought that there was something else in the room, he became bored of it long ago and threw it away. And your Sect Leader Lan Yu, he seems to be fierce, and I''m afraid he also has his own complaints towards me. Nangong Xuan still pretended to be tactful, but she already had an intention in her mouth. This allowed Zhou Ao to see hope, and the peerless beauty was immediately taken into his pockets. Sect Leader, furthermore, he and my grandfather have never fought against each other, he did not care about the small matters on our side at all. Wa, our Hua Ding Sect has always been one word from Nangong Yi, I never thought that we could actually be on par with each other in the Sect Leader, wouldn''t that mean your grandfather is very powerful? Nangong Xuan had an incomparably astonished expression, and looked as if her heart was slightly moved. According to her description, when Hua Ding Sect s were allocated to serve Holy Maiden, it could be said to be the hardest mission. It was far inferior to coming to a place where Qing Xuan Sect s were sloppy, if there was the protection of Zhou Ao. Hehe, what I''m talking about to you are all secrets. Seeing how beautiful the girl is, I immediately softened my heart and told you. Please don''t spread it out, alright? Zhou Ao appeared to be mysterious, but the things that came out of his mouth were mostly related to the Fifth Elder, which meant that Nangong Xuan could be considered to have met the right person, which was both stupid and realistic. As long as I represent Qing Xuan Sect and Nangong Xuan get married, once this marriage is decided, Grandfather will join hands with a few other elders to force the palace, and will hand over the position of Sect Leader. If Zhou Ao found out that the person in front of him was the Holy Maiden himself, he wondered just how wonderful his expression would be. You want to overthrow Lan Yu? Nangong Xuan''s heart throbbed, she did not expect the interior of the Qing Xuan Sect to be in such a state of chaos. If it''s possible, I would also like to ask you to help me set up the match so that I can have a few words with the ugly girl. "You can''t put it like that. If I have any achievements, it''s all because of the girl. How could I not think of you?" Zhou Ao''s face was once again filled with gentleness, an unspeakable warmth, like a gentle breeze and drizzling rain, causing others to feel incomparable pleasure. That old guy Lan Yu had occupied the position of the Sect Leader for such a long time, it was about time for someone else to take a seat! On the martial ground, cold shouts rang out continuously, densely packed with over ten thousand disciples gathering together. Holy Maiden could not see, and could not miss this excitement. Chen Fan, how is it? A week has already passed, have you managed to gather two million of snacks? It was still the same battle formation from seven days ago. More than a dozen protectors were standing in the training field, lining up in a uniform formation with an intimidating aura. Liu Chun had already changed his face, he stared angrily at Chen Fan, wanting nothing more than to eat him alive. Obviously, he had taken the latter''s Spiritual Stone and the most important Ancient Token of Grand Master. C52 My Spiritual Stone isn''t important, I''m curious how much sincerity you two have, don''t go back on your word in the end. Chen Fan said blandly. This was what he was truly worried about, even if they were in front of so many disciples of the same sect, he could still force his way through. Those fellows whose skin was thicker than the city walls would never have thought that they would be accidentally sliced off a piece of meat. Chen Fan predicted that they might be playing tricks on themselves. If it were any other young disciples, they would have involuntarily felt guilty and their legs would have gone limp just by looking at this scene, much less negotiate conditions with them. Even though this brat looked a bit stiff, he didn''t seem like a fool. How could he make such a stupid decision? Needless to say, a fashion for a moment, in the end did not hold the door, too good, I want to see what he will use to pay this huge sum of money. Most of them had even wandered around outside of the Pingquan Peak to see what Chen Fan was actually busy with. He shouldn''t really have dug out all the snacks from the ground, and there was even someone who saw him bury the entire ''million'' with their own eyes. It was all by the means of a Formation Pattern. I say, in fact, the Alien Minister Chen is setting down a big banner, but even us mediocre people can''t fathom that he is inscribing a space-time array that can quickly produce Spiritual Stone! At first glance, it sounded as if they were speaking up for Chen Fan, but that was just an even more direct ridicule. Who could move the mysterious power of space and time? As the protector of the Qing Xuan Sect, how could we renege on our debt to you? Furthermore, aren''t you thinking too much, brat? Liu Chun laughed sinisterly. He had already prepared to drive Chen Fan out of the Qing Xuan Sect, so the farce about the position of offering should also be over. This won''t do, I still have to ask clearly, whether your gambling match can be counted or not, not speaking properly, walking is struck by lightning. These words were said in a childish manner, and were deliberately done by Chen Fan. The crafty Liu Chun, even though he did not have any misgivings, he was still unwilling to let go. This was the caution he had shown over the years. It was deeply engraved in his bones, and he absolutely would not speak his mind out loud. Hahaha, Protector Liu, look at how you bullied that brat. Another protector stood out and bent his fingers at Chen Fan, purposely saying this loudly. I''ll pull the bow and fish with you, you can''t change for a hundred years, whoever lies will be a puppy. Not bad, not bad, this is such a good opportunity, maybe today will be the last time someone will attract attention in Qing Xuan Sect. Chen Fan paused for a bit, then decided to take a big one, and said it again. Actually, everyone should be allowed to participate and place a bet together to see just how much my confidence is worth. As his voice faded, the entire arena fell silent. Logically speaking, no one wanted to be in such trouble, but it felt so good. Everyone looked at each other, and even the few protectors looked at each other, not thinking that Chen Fan would come up with such a suggestion, he had placed himself on the chopping board as he wished. Needless to say, your courage is admirable, and you know your own limitations. Liu Chun gave a thumbs up. There was clearly a difference between his and Chen Fan''s understanding of "someone". What do you think? Chen Fan turned and asked again, quietly waiting for everyone''s reply. Hmph, a foreigner actually dares to behave so atrociously in my Qing Xuan Sect''s territory, I must let you teach me a lesson! I don''t know what temper you have, but I can''t endure it any longer. Five thousand Spiritual Stone and you all are on our side, so what is there to not trust? A voice suddenly rang out from the silent crowd. It was extremely sudden and clear, but when it entered the ears of the crowd, their hearts all started to palpitate with excitement. Alright, then I''ll add another wave as well. Just for fun, three thousand Spiritual Stone would mean Chen Fan''s defeat without a doubt. I came to join in the fun, two thousand Spiritual Stone. With the first person to take the lead, the scene immediately became lively. Many disciples began to throw away their money. Seemingly everyone had voted for Liu Chun''s Protector, purely for the sake of humiliating Chen Fan. Even if he won, they would not pay. All of you throw the Spiritual Consciousness into this Jade Chip, leaving a memorial for me to be humiliated. After saying that, Chen Fan threw out a Jade Chip in the air, which could record their respective amounts. What, are you so afraid that I''ll screw you guys over? Chen Fan laughed and held onto their mingmen tightly. The rhetorical question directly provoked this group of young people, and they silently sent out a strand of Spiritual Consciousness. They couldn''t lose face in front of so many of their fellow sect members. This way, in the future, I can also have a proof. I, Wang Yu, can also be presumptuous in front of a deity expert. Hahaha, everyone is the same. I will accompany you to play with these two thousand Spiritual Stone. I bid eight thousand Spiritual Stone, hoping that Alien Minister Chen can win ¡­ At the moment when the crowd was enraged, there was a weak voice. It was not very bright, but it attracted the most attention. All of the disciples shifted their gazes over. Upon seeing Zhao Xu, they all understood and no longer bothered with him. They continued to crazily raise their prices. Everyone knew of the special relationship he had with Chen Fan, so they would definitely stand at the back of the group. But, she didn''t notice that Zhao Xu was staring at them with the same gaze, her beautiful eyes didn''t waver in the slightest. After staying with Chen Fan for a long time, her state of mind had also changed greatly. He had been shouting at the top of his lungs a moment ago, but he was soon able to return to the state of an infuriated wife. He felt like an old fox that had been immersed in the Jianghu for many years. Speaking of which, due to Zhao Xu''s influence, a small portion of people chose to bet on both sides. As an inner disciple, Zhao Xu did not have a lot of family resources, but to be able to take out all of them and bet them on the other side, it was clear to see. Furthermore, Chen Fan''s performance was too calm, he was truly unlike a desperate gambler. The truly astute fellow had sensed the abnormality, and a thought had just flashed through his mind, before it immediately began to take root. Chen Fan, how long are you going to continue messing around! Liu Chun could not help but shout. He simply did not put these powerful protectors in his eyes. It was still the same calm gaze that lasted for ten thousand years, sweeping across the entire audience. Looking at these pitiful bug-like fellows, Chen Fan secretly felt pleased in his heart ¡ª ¡ª They were about to go bankrupt together. Crash! * Crackling sounds could be heard, and with Chen Fan''s wave, several small mountains appeared on the training grounds. Without exception, they were all formed with Spiritual Stone s. This... How could this be possible?! The few Protectors and the nearly ten thousand disciples were all struck dumb. They looked at the scene in front of them in a daze, as if they were in a dream. C53 No, no, there are only two million Spiritual Stone here. You said before that other than double the amount of Spiritual Stone s to be returned, there is also another five million. Hmph, you said it yourself. Five million Spiritual Stone, it wouldn''t even be one less! Another protector shouted loudly. He could vaguely sense that something was wrong. This... Chen Fan looked to be hesitating. I knew it, you brat, you were definitely bluffing. In a short week, you managed to get a few million Spiritual Stone, even the few elders did not dare to make such a promise. Liu Chun taunted, insisting that Chen Fan was lying. After reaching the level of an elder, it was no longer possible to simply measure him with a Spiritual Stone. However, the former quickly used facts to slap his face, and a few Storage Bag flew out of his hands consecutively, intentionally flashing past them one by one before pouring down. Crash! * Compared to before, this was even more shocking. In fact, it could be said that this degree of amazement had reached an extreme. Over ten thousand disciples opened their mouths wide in unison. The Spiritual Stone from before were piled into a small mound, and now, this was a complete set of Spiritual Peak, the kind that was genuine, and no one dared to doubt it ¡­ How about it? Do you need to count them? Chen Fan asked in a low voice, it was extremely calm and there was no room for doubt. The entire audience was silent, the disciples who had mocked him earlier were all silent, looking at their stunned expressions, Chen Fan had some achievements. Ever since he had fallen asleep ten thousand years ago, it was rare for him to not feel this way. Not to mention that he had attracted the attention of tens of thousands of people, but at the very least, hundreds of thousands of people were paying attention to him. Following this posture, he slowly built up his prestige in Qing Xuan Sect, and then directly faced those seemingly small, but actually stubborn, Sect higher ups. The task of altering Qing Xuan Sect was steadily progressing, and all of the hundred rivers converging into the ocean would eventually be under his control. Don''t you know how to count? Zhao Xu could not help but scold. As long as there was even the slightest bit of cultivation common sense, he would not be wrong in estimating the number of Spiritual Stone. Even if there was some deviation, it was not enough to ignore a million Spiritual Stone. This must be a lie. You are purposely deceiving us. This Protector''s Divine Vision will never be covered in dust. Liu Chunxin had already confirmed that not only was there no flaw to be able to produce such a soft ray of light, but also a strong sense of Spiritual Energy, and its grade was extremely high. If I can get the Fifth Elder or the Sect Leader to personally come and inspect, to see if this is the real Spiritual Stone, I, Chen Fan, will not do something like this. According to the words of the Deer God, no matter what, he was still a dignified Supreme Wu Tian. It was fine if he had to bow for the sake of the Spiritual Stone, but if he used this sort of thing to fool others, he might as well throw this title to the Underworld, never to reincarnate. He didn''t know what Nangong Yi''s thoughts were when he heard these words. How could he have made a mistake and directly suppressed Liu Chun to pay for his precious granddaughter''s illness? Protector Liu, you better not alarm the Fifth Elder, and admit defeat. Another Protector said. With things having gotten to this point, if Sect Leader and the rest did not know about it yet, it would not make sense. But I really can''t accept admitting defeat like this. Liu Chun wanted to say something, but was stopped by the middle-aged man beside him. The Protector Liu just so happened to be the time the Hua Ding Sect Holy Maiden came to visit. If he really invited them over, it would be equivalent to raising them to the level of Sect, and there would be no way to reverse this matter. I don''t know if the words before were still true, but if you all were to go back on your words, I have no choice, but Sect Leader and the rest will make the decision. Chen Fan knew what these fellows were thinking. It was just that they were afraid of making a big fuss out of it. He had already kept all the Spiritual Stone and it was too enticing to leave them right in front of his eyes. If there really was someone who could not hold it in and rushed up to take these two, it would definitely bring about a lot of crazy disciples. Even Chen Fan heard the sound of them swallowing their saliva. The mountain-like Spiritual Stone disappeared. Everyone was a bit disappointed, as they had not seen enough yet. No matter what, this old man is still a genuine protector of the Qing Xuan Sect, and is different from some trash offering that falls from the sky. Liu Chun was speaking to his group, and did not mention the existence of the bet at all, instead, he grabbed hold of Chen Fan''s identity. The theory was very simple. As long as they could turn him into an outsider, then there was no need to gamble. Just as Chen Fan was about to say something, a clear voice came out from outside the arena. Since it''s so lively today, I''m here to join in the fun as well. Why did I hear that someone is going back on their word when I just arrived? Since it was someone else, they coincidentally held the same position as Chen Fan on the surface, the Guardian of Hua Ding Sect ¡ª Feng Tuo. As for the actual difference between the two, it might even be possible to go around in a big circle within the North Domain. Senior Feng, this is a private matter of our Qing Xuan Sect, please do not interfere. The Protector Sun who had spoken previously stood out again, representing the many middle ranking experts to express their attitude. The whole family didn''t even say two words, and furthermore, I didn''t have to leave the Qing Xuan Sect for long, so I didn''t need to be so heartless, right? Feng Tuo cheerfully said. Hmph, it''s up to you. Liu Chun was a little angry, of course he wouldn''t dare to mess around in front of this old fellow, he could only allow him to do as he pleased. Dao Friend Chen Fan, there are a lot of things recorded within your Jade Chip. Everyone had noticed the way Feng Tuo called him. He was even more casual than the other protectors, but he truly called them his peers. However, it was not of much use. Truly good things had to be kept in the brain, and one had to have sufficient strength to protect it. Are you done? Originally, he thought that Chen Fan would be grateful, but he didn''t think that it would only be a light response, and seemed to be slightly dissatisfied. After saying so, he helped me persuade them that reneging on the debt isn''t a good thing. If this were to spread out, it would be easy for others to mock him. Feng Tuo had already clearly stood on Chen Fan''s side, yet he still gave such a stiff reply. If it was any other Senior Expert, they would have left at that time, no one would care about such things anymore. Hehe, Dao Friend Chen Fan seems to have suffered a lot today, I need to find a place to vent my anger. What was even more unexpected was that after Feng Tuo heard this, he still maintained a friendly face that seemed as if he had made a fortune. He was not angry at all. It was not because he had such a good temper, but the problem was that even Nangong Yi kept calling him Little Fellow Taoist, so what else could he do? They said that they were going to gather two million Spiritual Stone, but just by speaking a few words, no one was willing to take them out. Chen Fan took advantage of the situation. To be able to borrow strength from the Hua Ding Sect, naturally it would also be a pretty good ride. C54 This old man does not mind reporting back about today''s mess. Honestly speaking, as for what the Nan Gong Sect Leader said, that would depend on luck. The meaning behind Feng Tuo''s insinuations was that they would set up a marriage alliance. If they were thwarted because of this wager, then none of these Protectors would be able to escape their responsibility. This protector admitted his bad luck, and after three days, he will send people to deliver the Spiritual Stone to the Pingquan Peak. With that, the middle aged man beside Liu Chun turned and left. This kind of place was not worth mentioning. This protector, please bark, or else I will always treat you as a two legged Demon Clan. Chen Fan was completely delighted that they had finally turned the tables on him, and being together with these hoodlums made him forget that he was once called Supreme Wu Tian. Hahahaha! Hearing this, the crowd burst into laughter, but it was still rather depressing. These protectors all wore the same pants, so no one wanted to offend them. Bastard, what did you say?! The protector was enraged, but when the words came out of his mouth, it was obvious that he was not confident, but he was sent back to him by Chen Fan. I beg of you to leave a mark on this Jade Chip, or else, I will turn around and seek allegiance with Hua Ding Sect. With a raise of his hand, the value of Chen Fan''s Jade Chip had already skyrocketed to millions of Spiritual Stone, floating over to the former. Uuu, not bad, not bad. Although this old man is only a small reverend in Hua Ding Sect, I can still do it if I want to be the master and send out a protector. Feng Tuo was also stroking his beard, talking as if that guy had really betrayed Qing Xuan Sect. He couldn''t casually take down this black pot. Everyone, shouldn''t you express yourselves as well? Chen Fan turned his head, and the first person he hit was Liu Chun. With Feng Tuo staring at the side, it was impossible for him to stir up any trouble, so he could only follow suit and leave a Spiritual Consciousness behind. Protector Liu, this isn''t good, do you really not have any Spiritual Stone on you? Chen Fan called out to the former, he truly looked down on this guy. This old man thinks the same. Forget about Bighead, we should at least have a portion of the deposit. Feng Tuo also agreed and said while shaking his head. With him standing here, he indirectly represented the will of the Hua Ding Sect. Naturally, no one dared to offend him. If the real paper was sent to the Sect Leader, it would be deemed as destroying the marriage alliance, and there might even be a tendency of betrayal. Don''t go too far, let me warn you, Qing Xuan Sect is still our world, an ignorant youngster won''t be able to act arrogantly for long! Liu Chun was enraged, but facing Chen Fan and Yue Yang who were all smiles, he could do nothing, and could not really attack. If that was the case, he had no doubt that this brat would directly lie on the ground and swindle him. He threw down twenty thousand Spiritual Stone. This was almost the usual amount that a protector would carry with him at all times. No one would drag a hundred thousand Spiritual Stone along with them for no reason. As for the situation with Chen Fan, who wouldn''t want to carry a ready-made Spiritual Stone treasury, so even if they were to be exhausted to death, they would be willing to do so. Quick, quick, quick. He had to spend money just to watch the show. Seeing that, Zhao Xu tactfully began to collect the Spiritual Stone, and now many people were betting heavily. With the help of the Spiritual Consciousness above the Jade Chip, they were able to search one by one. Qin Sheng also appeared out of nowhere, and with his identity as a protector, he gave off an invisible threat to these disciples. Senior Martial Brother Zhao, we''re all from the same sect, don''t make things so awkward. This is all I have. It took me a long time to get it. Someone pleaded in a low voice, hoping that Zhao Xu would let them go. In the end, they still didn''t want to pay such a huge price. Go go go, now you know to plead, just now when you mocked Alien Minister Chen, you didn''t see any guilt. Zhao Xu shot a glance at Chen Fan, and hurriedly replied, while shaking his head, he almost stole it from the sides of their hands. Alien Minister Chen is truly a good person, my decades of hard work might not even match up to this day''s achievements. Qin Sheng could not hold back his laughter. Let them eat the melon, and leave half of the Spiritual Stone as a lesson. Chen Fan thought about it, but he didn''t go overboard. Instead, it would deepen his demonic image. Even so, Qin Sheng and the others still had more than four figures on their Spiritual Stone. Furthermore, they were quickly approaching ten thousand of them, which was a huge sum of money for them. Hahaha, I really earned it this time! Even if Zhao Xu didn''t write the word happy on his face, who knew how nervous he had become. On the way to the Martial Arts Practice Grounds, Chen Fan had already instructed him that when he proposed to gamble, she needed him to bring up the mood with his words. Now it looked like it was a wise decision. In just a short fifteen minutes of time, he had not been able to obtain any Spiritual Stone that he could use for several years. In the future, no matter what, I have to follow the Alien Minister Chen. If he eats meat, I only have soup for him. Zhao Xu muttered to himself, this was also due to his trust in Chen Fan. One had to know, the five thousand Spiritual Stone that he used to bet were rewards he earned from painstakingly completing the Sect mission. As for the rest, he had half of Qin Sheng''s shares, as well as some that he had borrowed temporarily in the treasury. If Chen Fan really lost, not only would he lose everything, he would also have to shoulder all the debts. After this matter, Chen Fan once again succeeded in obtaining the true winner, and then left calmly. As for those Spiritual Stone, there was naturally Zhao Xu and his disciples helping him to count them. However, what he did not know was that there was another strange disturbance waiting for him on his Spiritual Peak. Looking at the large hall at the top of the Pingquan Peak, Zhou Ao was still rambling nonstop about it, practically talking over and over about all the major events at the Qing Xuan Sect. Based on what you said, Qing Xuan Sect has already become a muddle, how could it be worth kicking. Nangong Xuan frowned, she had indeed probed a bit first. Even those who had died could be described as living, not to mention something as big as a marriage alliance. How about it? Have you considered your options? If you keep following that ugly woman, I don''t believe that you will be able to persevere. Zhou Ao was already impatient, he was not a focused person in the first place, so he definitely could not hope for him to listen to Qian De''s advice. Behind almost every successful Senior Expert, there would be one or even several unskilled younger generation. C55 Hearing you speak like that, it seems like the Holy Maiden and that Chen Fan Guardian is really a match made in heaven. Nangong Xuan suddenly said. She didn''t know how much of what she said was a lie, but she didn''t know if it was from the bottom of her heart. Does that ugly girl have any hobbies? If I want to get him, I''d like to ask the girl to help a lot. Zhou Ao''s face was sincere, facing this peerless beauty, it was difficult for people not to have enchanting thoughts, and even more so, an unprecedented sincerity. I''m not sure about that. I''ve never paid attention to this. Nangong Xuan shook her head. She really didn''t know what her special preferences were. What, that ugly girl usually doesn''t walk out of the door or out of the door? After thinking about it, Zhou Ao almost said the words, don''t do anything weird when you are ugly. She was very simple, she would ask him once she came back. Nangong Xuan replied. That''s right, wasn''t the ugly girl still here yesterday? Why did she disappear today? Zhou Ao was extremely confident. For a subordinate, being able to allow someone else to call him master was already a problem. I heard that it was a mysterious trip outside the mountain gate. I''m not very clear about it. The meaning in Nangong Xuan''s words was that, since she finally had the chance to come out, she would of course enjoy to her heart''s content. Since that''s the case, why don''t you go over to my place first? This way, you can get used to the environment in advance. This isn''t a good idea ¡­ Saying that, Nangong Xuan calmly kicked the ground. Other than Chen Fan, Nangong Xuan was definitely the only one who had a better understanding of the formation beneath her feet. She had twenty years of experience in interacting with the Riverside Formation. Miss, please don''t decline. I am loyal to you, and you know that I am very easy to get along with. Obviously, Zhou Ao misunderstood the former''s movements, and viewed it as hesitating. I am a little tired. If young master Zhou has nothing else to do, you should head back. Otherwise, it will lead to a misunderstanding. Nangong Xuan seemed to have become a completely different person. This was her original attitude, after all that had been said, there was naturally no need to waste time on this guy anymore. Hehe, don''t you think this is a coincidence? I just like how cold as an iceberg this young lady is. Zhou Ao laughed sinisterly, a trace of desire flashing deep within his eyes. Young Master Zhou, please take care, this is Pingquan Peak. Seeing that the former seemed to even have the intention to freeze his hands and feet, Nangong Xuan''s voice became louder. You''ve changed your name to Master Zhou so quickly, could it be that people from your Hua Ding Sect are all so fickle? Zhou Ao was anxious, how could he care so much. When he heard that Nangong Xuan would not be back for a while, he naturally treated Nangong Xuan as his prey, a big white rabbit who could be slaughtered at will. However, at this time, a curtain of light appeared on the martial arena. The water was rugged and looked like a natural projection. Two human silhouettes emerged from inside, as well as a familiar Spiritual Peak scene. The disciples who had gathered to watch the show had not dispersed yet, so they naturally cast their gazes towards the two. That seemed to be Senior Brother Zhou Ao. The figure was extremely familiar, and was quite well-known in the entire Qing Xuan Sect. It was so much so that it surpassed Sect Leader. Why was there a woman at the side? Could it be a new female disciple? Right now, as long as they saw the opposite sex beside Zhou Ao, they would feel that he was deceiving them. Ai, what a pity, so much resources were all taken up by him alone. It was alright, Fifth Elder''s grandson naturally had the right to do so. If they also had an elder like him as a backup, who would run over to this place to watch the commotion, and it would definitely fill the entire world''s amusement. Sigh, from the sound of it, it seems like this person has a lot to do with Hua Ding Sect. Some of them had noticed Nangong Xuan''s voice, and some even started quarreling with him. Stop talking and listen to what they''re saying. Very quickly, from an unknown location in the crowd, a stream of light shot out, causing the volume of sound within the light screen to rise imperceptibly. To be able to watch two lively events a day, that was a rare opportunity, Chen Fan had to fully satisfy their entertainment needs. Especially when they saw Zhou Ao calling himself Young Master, their expressions of disgust were almost written out. Under similar circumstances, there were not many people who were as thick-skinned as him. Of course, this was also related to his growing up since he was young. After all, Zhou Ao had never suffered any setbacks within his Qing Xuan Sect, and no one dared to give him face. Over time, he had developed a unique and respected personality. He did not put his peers in his eyes at all, as male disciples came to serve him. As for female disciples, they were purely playthings. This brat was probably going to suffer, who knew what Nangong Yi would think after seeing this scene. Chen Fan suddenly had a bad taste in his heart. He was openly teasing Holy Maiden, and in front of so many people, with the amount of love that the old fellow had for his precious granddaughter, he probably wanted to skin Zhou Ao alive. Tsk tsk tsk, the Supreme Wu Tian from before had more or less foresight of this, the Spiritual Stone s of the Riverside Formation did not spend their efforts in vain. Deer God was also happy to see such a scene. It was precisely because of the existence of the Formation Pattern s whose Spiritual Peak were spread throughout the entire area that Nangong Xuan was able to use them. To give Zhou Ao such a ruthless and decisive strike, after today, he would definitely be pointed at even on the road, secretly ridiculing him while poking his spine. Miss Li, come with me, okay? Actually, I have always had a special feeling towards Hua Ding Sect. Different from our declining Qing Xuan Sect, your Qing Xuan Sect is the truly supreme one on your side, and even each of the disciples that walk out have their own special characteristics. Seeing that Nangong Xuan had changed her attitude, Zhou Ao also softened. His incomparably lazy voice entered everyone''s ears, but he naturally did not know about it. Goosebumps had already formed on the ground of the Martial Arts Practice Grounds. Really? I really don''t want to come to the Qing Xuan Sect for now, why don''t you go there to accompany me for a while. Nangong Xuan asked with a deeper meaning in her words. With just a few words, she had laid down a huge pit in wait for Zhou Ao. Even if it''s possible, I still want to join Hua Ding Sect, the kind that is willing to be at the lady''s beck and call, that way, I won''t change even if I die. Sure enough, Zhou Ao himself jumped down with a thump, instantly causing an uproar. Heavens, what did he say? If the dignified Fifth Elder''s grandson is actually so pessimistic about our Qing Xuan Sect, then we might as well have him go and join our Hua Ding Sect. He really did not know what was going on. He did not expect Zhou Ao to hide such a malicious intent. He really did not know how the Fifth Elder had taught him. You actually dared to question this old man, it was clearly Zhou Ao who was courting death, it would not involve so much, it would easily cause other troubles. If Zhou Ao was just a simple female disciple, then this was a mistake that every man would make. It wasn''t really a big deal, after criticizing it, he just had to drink three cups on his own. C56 But now, he actually said such outrageous words. It had to be known that the Fifth Elder was avoiding him. Even if the entire Sect were to be viewed as a supporter of Lan Yu''s faction, he was still a rising star of the Qian De faction. Normally, a small fight would be harmless, but today, for a female disciple, he took the initiative to withdraw from Qing Xuan Sect. This was a huge taboo in any sect. However, if you want me to go to Hua Ding Sect, you have to trouble the young lady to first show me some of your benefits. If not for the fact that he was afraid of Nangong Xuan''s identity, Zhou Ao would have wanted to attack him. However, at the moment, her cultivation was much deeper than the former, and she was still hiding her strength even more deeply. Hurry up and go, I''m not in a hurry, my grandfather is currently in a deep state of cultivation, so he won''t notice anything happening outside ¡­ Before he even finished speaking, he suddenly felt a gust of wind from the other side that was difficult to contend against. Even with his physical defense and strength, he was not able to resist at all. He was directly thrown to the ground, his internal organs seemed to have been turned upside down. Young lady, what are you doing? Are you trying to force me to use violence?! If it was anyone else, Zhou Ao would definitely be enraged, and immediately throw a punch back at them. But when it came to Nangong Xuan, he still held onto a trace of fantasy, thinking that she was being too impatient and had disturbed the former. You can leave now, or else you''ll die a horrible death, and someone will come find you to settle the score. Nangong Xuan spoke bluntly. Even if she did not have a murderous heart, this matter would eventually spread to Nangong Yi''s ears. With regards to her grandfather''s favor and determination, Nangong Xuan had already experienced more than seven thousand days. In the worst-case scenario, she might really come out all at once, even with the help of the Fifth Elder. Hmph, I want to see who dares to find trouble with me without opening their eyes! Hearing Nangong Xuan''s words, Zhou Ao strongly ridiculed him back. He obstinately believed that as long as her Qing Xuan Sect was at a level of one acre, her own name would be a type of deterrence. What he did not know was that it was this kind of consciousness that bound his thinking to a small set of Qing Xuan Sect and caused him to spend his entire life wandering around the place, relying on Qian De to live with his shadow. Bang! With another loud noise, Nangong Xuan no longer wasted time talking to him. In the eyes of this kind of playboy, her fists were always more believable due to logic. With a simple wave of her hand, a large number of runes formed in the air, imprinting themselves onto Zhou Ao''s body. You even have the face to use such trifling tricks in front of me. Zhou Ao bellowed, his fighting spirit surging, no longer showing any signs of holding back. The other side was about to kill him. It was clear that they didn''t want to follow his wishes, so they could only try their best. The surging Spiritual Energy gushed out from his body like a real river. It was continuously rushing through the void, and was emitted by borrowing the force of his two palms to break it. After carefully considering it, Zhou Ao had no choice but to admit that with Nangong Xuan''s small face, he really had the ability to launch an attack at him. Originally, they had thought it was a soft fish-like attack, but after coming into contact with the flesh, many lines instantly turned into sharp blades. Every single one of them attempted to deeply cut through. The dense Gengjin Qi followed right after, immediately causing Zhou Ao to panic. After continuously sending out multiple Seal, the pure Spiritual Energy seemed to have come out as if it didn''t need any money. It floated in mid-air piece by piece, trying to regain control of space. The dense fog was very thin due to the light rays. Clearly, it was somewhat hazy and would quickly transform into a demon that would kill without blinking an eye. The Hua Ding Sect right? You guys are making me more and more surprised. Zhou Ao''s sigh must have come from the bottom of his heart. A mere servant of the Holy Maiden had such terrifying power. If he put it in Qing Xuan Sect, he would definitely be able to be raised as a future strong protector. In the future, he would definitely be an illustrious expert of Sect. However, it was clear that he had underestimated Nangong Xuan. After holding on for about half a quarter of an hour, the protective shield that had been painstakingly refined completely shattered. It was then enveloped by the boundless void once again. In reality, he still had a lot of ways to deal with this situation. However, with his poor combat experience, he had no way to counterattack. He could only suppress them and continue to fight. The entire process was broadcasted live. The speed at which information was spread among the several tens of thousands of Qing Xuan Sect disciples had seemingly reached a level even faster than light. Within the span of a few breaths, the martial arts arena was packed with people. Looking around, one could see many small heads fighting to see more of the scene. This is bad, I should have watched from the arena for a while, how did it end up in such a disaster? Liu Chun paced back and forth in a secret room, looking a little unsettled. It was obvious that he had found out about what had happened on the training grounds, but there was nothing he could do about it. How could this be suitable, the Sect Leader would definitely not be able to account for it. Another protector said. These words couldn''t be said out loud. After all, it was impossible to find. No matter if it was Hua Ding Sect or if it was Qing Xuan Sect, both were at this rather critical juncture. Any slight disturbance would happen, and their strength would be multiplied by several times. It was just like the waves in the ocean. One could not see the tiny, undetectable part of the waves after reaching the shore, but in reality, all of the force was dispersed within the sea. This was also the same for transcendent powers. Tens of thousands of disciples could be seen as a splash. No matter how fierce the fight between the upper echelons was, it would not affect their survival. Originally, they knew each other well, but they just hadn''t said anything about it. Who would have thought that there would still be Zhou Ao, the obstructing tiger. Not only that, the Fifth Elder was currently in closed-door training. If she were to discover such a scene after coming out, who knew how much rage she would be in. Protector Li who had been targeting Chen Fan previously also went along with it, as they discussed the taboo countermeasures. This is f * cking scum! Bastard, if we don''t take the blame, do you want us to help him clean up this mess?! Liu Chun was so angry that he appeared on horseback. This was the vulgarity that he had wanted to curse out a long time ago. This sort of thing had happened who knows how many times, and they were frustrated to the point of being unable to bear it. Qian De would definitely not personally come forward to coordinate with them, as long as it was a simple action, they would all rush over and ''clean up'' Zhou Ao''s ass. They are both young, but why is it that the difference between the second Young Lord of our Qing Xuan Sect and the one in our Yuan Sect is so huge? Protector Li frowned. The words that came out of his mouth pointed directly at the other name Zhou Ao had given him. Of course, it was only the Young Lord that the Fifth Elder had given to herself. This should be called by the family, and it just so happened that out of the twenty or so protectors in the Qing Xuan Sect, there was an existence known as a leader. From this little point of view, Zhou Ao was still brother to Liu Chun and the others. Originally, they wanted to help, but the situation was constantly reversed. C57 Ever since I was young, I have mentioned this kid several times, but he was too weak, just a pile of mud that couldn''t support the wall! It was best to think of a way to explain it to the old man, so the Sect Leader would definitely make use of this opportunity. The few protectors were extremely angry. All the good plans had been shattered, and they were already depressed to the extreme. Even now, he still couldn''t understand where Chen Fan had gotten these millions of Spiritual Stone, and not only did he fail to get ahold of them, he had even tricked them. With so many Spiritual Stone, in front of all the disciples and the witness of Feng Tuo, even they felt heartache and felt that they had lost at least a third of their wealth. Sigh, I already knew that I wouldn''t tell the Fifth Elder about this bet regarding Chen Fan. Liu Chun sighed, he had a feeling that they just missed each other. He had previously been unable to restrain the excitement in his heart, and had also received the praise of the Fifth Elder, and had even calculated how he would be able to bring out the value of this Ancient Token, in order to help him become the Throne of Sect Leader. It was in this state of mind that the latter entered the cultivation state ¨C he thought that when he woke up, he would have a ready-made Ancient Token of Grand Master in front of him. This won''t do, we can''t offend the people from the Hua Ding Sect, we can''t ruin the marriage alliance, this responsibility, we have to find trouble with Chen Fan and use Zhou Ao''s position as a starting point. A trace of hostility flashed through his eyes. Their original plan was to curry favor with Zhou Ao, and let him go and have a few words with the Fifth Elder, at the very least, they would be able to calm him down and not let these guys receive too severe of a punishment. If he did not have this cover, the Fifth Elder would not have this thought. In his anger, he definitely thought that Liu Chun and the others were making fun of him. The problem was that woman, who was she? This was an extremely realistic question that was clearly asked in front of the few protectors. Yesterday, when Nangong Xuan came to the Qing Xuan Sect, they had all clearly seen it. Why did another maid suddenly appear? Could it be that the scene was similar to Chen Fan''s, that was even stronger than Liu Chun''s? The experiences of the past few days were all very strange. Frustration followed setbacks. The attacks were continuous. Furthermore, they were all done in the first place, so there was a chance that someone was manipulating them from behind. Where did the Holy Maiden go? Another protector asked. He continuously called out a few disciples who were on duty, but failed to get the answer he wanted. The result was that Nangong Xuan seemed to have evaporated into thin air. Ah!" What was going on? Did a ghost appear in my Qing Xuan Sect?! Protector Li''s mood was on the verge of collapse. He let out a low and deep roar. This kind of feeling that was beyond his control was not good. It was as if someone was leading him by the nose. I got it ¡­ Although he did not want to think in this direction, Liu Chun had to make the worst possible judgement. The other protectors all cast their gazes towards him. They were all grasshoppers on a string, wanting to see what this fellow could say. Sect Leader... With just two words, Liu Chun looked towards the direction of the Pindu Peak, the rest of the people immediately understood, being able to climb up to the position of the protector in Qing Xuan Sect, naturally, they were not easy to deal with. His mind was full of ideas, and he was a smart guy. He only needed a few words to figure it out. They searched through the entire Qing Xuan Sect but found nothing. The most likely scenario was that Lan Yu had hidden himself, and then dug out this so-called maid, and successfully caught Zhou Ao on the hook. The room fell into silence for a while. The leader of the group was nowhere to be found. There was no leader in the group, so it was difficult to make a decision. These signs indicated that there was a big boss pushing this issue. Thinking back and forth, only the Sect Leader had this ability. And since it involved Zhou Ao''s special identity, the other two elders could not easily appear. Besides, he deserved to be beaten up. As expected of the Sect Leader, he actually managed to come up with such a dangerous move, so he was definitely going to face his strong suppression. Even Liu Chun could imagine what kind of scene it would be, but he was more impressed with it in his heart. Using the marriage between the two sects, when the Holy Maiden personally came to visit, it enticed Zhou Ao into saying the wrong things in a moment of excitement, and it was an excellent opportunity to suppress him. There were still many disciples who could not underestimate Zhou Ao. They had done far too much in the past, and once a great calamity descended upon them, they would not know which small matter would become the final straw that would suppress the camel. Using this opportunity to inflict heavy damage to the Fifth Elder''s power, and then bringing about the achievement of forming an alliance, under both sides, one pull and one downgrade, Lan Yu''s position would be consolidated once again, and would be unshakable. But the risk of doing so was not small, if Zhou Ao was calm enough and was able to notice the huge hole in front of him, or if Nangong Xuan was dissatisfied, it would create a new barrier to the marriage between the two sects. Liu Chun and the others were still trying to figure out Lan Yu''s true intentions, but they didn''t know that on Pindu Peak, the Senior Academy was also in a state of extreme confusion. From Chen Fan''s bet in the Martial Arts Practice Grounds, the entire Sect of the maids had turned into a mess. He still did not understand why this Sect Leader had failed to be one. He also did not know that his protectors had already imagined him to be the mastermind of an incomparably dark operation. In fact, Zheng was mixed in the crowd at the training field, his arms crossed over his chest, watching the show. Looking at the Pingquan Peak, the dignified fifth elder''s grandson, half of his life was left lying there. Half of his life was truly injured, and the other half his lungs were about to explode. This was a scene Zhou Ao had never thought of before. In the past twenty odd years, no one had given him a hard time. To this day, Nangong Xuan taught him a good lesson. She waved her clean and clear hand and caught some kind of turbulence from an unknown place in the air, circling around Zhou Ao in strand after strand. He wanted to retreat, but there was an invisible suction force on the ground that firmly bound his feet, making it impossible for him to do so. After a burst of crackling and rattling sounds, the Spiritual Energy that Zhou Ao anxiously threw out was broken open, and the silver-white colored fragments entered his body, his entire aura suddenly improving. It was just that it had been forcefully activated. After the turbulence dissipated, everything disappeared, and the Spiritual Energy also became dispirited. In the end, he was the grandson of the Fifth Elder. He didn''t embarrass the elderly at such a crucial moment. Even if he was beaten up, he could still quickly get up and even straighten his back. Great, a small maid dares to attack me, I, your master will definitely eat you today, Nangong Yi will not be able to hold you back even if I were to come here personally! Immediately, Zhou Ao fiercely stomped a few times, both of his legs swept forward, his palms transforming into a pair of eagle claws, fiercely thrusting towards Nangong Xuan. He could see that this bearded man was not bad, but unfortunately, he didn''t have much ability. If it was another inner disciple, they would have been better than him. C58 Zhou Ao''s body had long been emptied out by the alcohol and sex, it was so white that it had a body frame of bones, most of his cultivation time and time again relied on the Spiritual Pill s, the seventh level of the Foundation Establishment Stage was also extremely weak. If Qing Xuan Sect is something like you, then forget about this marriage! Nangong Xuan scolded loudly. It was beyond her imagination to estimate the lower limit of this guy''s abilities. If it wasn''t for her having an advantage in terms of cultivation, she might really have met with an accident. It swept towards Zhou Ao''s face without warning, and suddenly a huge net appeared in the air, causing even the Spiritual Energy to feel as if they were boiling. Ah! Zhou Ao was completely defeated, as a scream came out, as though he had slapped his face dozens of times. Other than the skull, it was as if the head was not its own anymore. Damn, isn''t this fellow too powerful? In any case, Zhou Ao was a high-level Foundation Establishment cultivator, even though his true combat power was pitifully low when compared to his, he still had the power to protect himself. Otherwise, Qian De would not let him do whatever he wanted inside the Sect. If he really pissed others off and attacked out of anger, at least he could hold on until the Protector Ranker on the Fifth Elder''s side arrived in person. In the eyes of the onlookers, Zhou Ao was just a living human shaped target. However, they all had to pretend that their hands were slippery to the point that they couldn''t hit the target accurately. In the past, even if I was bullied by him, I could only bear with it. After all, the majority of people''s Master is not willing to interact with him, and would rather interact with Elder Wu directly. Don''t say it. Seeing that senior Zhou has been beaten up, I feel really good. Finally, someone is helping me vent my anger. I was pretty much the same. Two days ago, I spent nine bulls worth of effort to get a thousand-year spiritual herb from the outside. Tsk, tsk, tsk. It''s about time I let this kid suffer. I can''t just let him get all the benefits. Nearly thirty thousand disciples of the Qing Xuan Sect had all more or less heard of Zhou Ao''s great name. The older students who were currently on the martial stage for at least two years had many of them taken advantage of by him. With their status and identity, even if they had the power to suppress Zhou Ao, they wouldn''t have the guts. Nangong Xuan helped so many people to settle the score at the same time, her actions extremely heavy. Very quickly, the male figure on the screen could no longer stand, and was casually thrown away like a sandbag. Silent, just be a spectator. If we don''t have the strength, we shouldn''t meddle in this. The voices of the disciples gradually quietened down. After all, no matter how many people were discussing, there might be someone who would take advantage of them and write them down before going to the Fifth Elder for credit. Qing Xuan Sect is really too disappointing, stand up for me now, and leave behind a pair of underpants for your Sect. Nangong Xuan''s voice and expression were both extremely cold. If it wasn''t for Chen Fan, she would have already lifted her leg and left the Qing Xuan Sect right now, never to come to this place ever again. Being also a transcendent power, the difference between their Hua Ding Sect and theirs was simply too great. It could be seen from the way the young disciples acted that Zhou Ao had become an outstanding representative for the first time. You are only a maid, how can you have the guts to decide the matters of the two great Sect? What nonsense! From the Hua Ding Sect point of view, without the protection of the Fifth Elder, it''s impossible for a person like you to survive for even a single day. Nangong Xuan then revealed what everyone was thinking. Don''t talk nonsense, you don''t even have the right to talk about the internal affairs of my Qing Xuan Sect. Zhou Ao instinctively sensed that something was amiss, and looking at the drastic change in attitude around Nangong Xuan, he realized that there was something strange about every single one of them. He was almost certain that the person in front of him was not Nangong Xuan''s maid, but of course, even if he thought hard, he would not be able to guess that it was Nangong Xuan. At his age, Zhou Ao suddenly regretted it in his heart. If he had known earlier, he would have held on intentionally, and this Miss Li might have been sent by Hua Ding Sect to test him. It was very obvious that this strange and baffling match, as well as Nangong Xuan''s first exploration, had ended with Zhou Ao''s failure, and had also caused his entire Qing Xuan Sect to fail as well. I really don''t have that right, but they definitely do. With such a large Qing Xuan Sect, don''t tell me they really don''t have any royal laws? Nangong Xuan was too lazy to continue interacting with this sort of fellow. She did not even have the intention to attack him. As she was truly afraid of dirtying her own hands, she simply pointed in the direction of the martial arts training ground. He then stamped his feet and turned around to return to the house, leaving Zhou Ao behind. What was going on? His head was full of fog, and he had a good time fooling around with him. This huge battle was not just to beat him up, but also to create an excuse for him ¡­ The truth quickly appeared before their eyes. The Formation Pattern that was hidden on the ground for a long time had been revealed, and those who had slightly more common sense could tell that this was the lowest level of Spell Formation. Damn it, I knew this woman was up to no good! It was only at this moment that Zhou Ao suddenly realized what had happened. He didn''t know when the array had been activated, but it made him feel even more terrified. It couldn''t be that ever since he stepped onto the Pingquan Peak, his every movement and movement had been teleported to the martial arena, allowing other disciples who previously didn''t even pay any attention to him to see it all. Looking back in the direction of Nangong Xuan''s small house, Zhou Ao''s facial features instantly distorted and he felt a surge of fury in his heart. He wanted nothing more than to burn the former alive on the spot. However, he did not have the guts nor the strength to do so. He had been suppressed during the previous battle, so rushing forward would only be asking for trouble. It also allowed him to have a better understanding of what he was trying to do. It turned out that the reason why he had pushed the other inner disciples aside was all because they were intentionally putting on an act. Just what have I said? It''s over now, I have to go and discuss it with grandfather ¡­ Zhou Ao dizzily walked down the Pingquan Peak. Even if he really was a 250 years old, he could still sense the sensitivity in his words. He was very clear about the conflict between his grandfather and the Sect Leader. Although he hadn''t guessed the sequence of events like Liu Chun and the others did, he could still sense that he had made a mistake. This had been his practice for twenty years. In any case, with his grandfather''s support, he would be able to get through any trouble safely. Senior-apprentice Brother Zhou, what''s wrong with you? Are you not feeling well? At the bottom of Pingquan Peak, there were already hundreds of people gathered there. They had all rushed over to see a new show when they saw Zhou Ao coming down the mountain. Do you want us to send you back? If you don''t feel well, then don''t force yourself. At first glance, it sounded like they were extremely concerned. If Zhou Ao did not see those Formation Pattern s, he might even believe it was true. C59 All of you have come to make fun of me, aren''t you tired of living? With a cold snort, Zhou Ao was about to force his way out of the Spiritual Energy, and immediately launched an indiscriminate attack, so it was likely that these people did not dare to retaliate. However, before he could even start his cultivation, the flow of the spirit energy in his meridians sped up, and the Formation Pattern once again appeared in the surrounding space. Zhou Ao''s heart skipped a beat and instinctively wanted to escape the Pingquan Peak. This place was simply too strange. Bang! As expected, he was targeted once again. He was thrown high into the air by an invisible force, and fell down like a kite with its string cut. It was unknown if it was because Nangong Xuan had taken action in secret, or because the mini version of the Riverside Formation had been activated, and all the Formation Pattern were surrounding Zhou Ao. Strands of purple light could still be seen flashing in the sky as all the energy within the Spiritual Stone was converted into the power of thunder and lightning, completely enveloping his surroundings. After a burst of crackling sounds, not only did the purple light not disappear, it even climbed onto Zhou Ao''s clothes, and filled the entire place with a sharp aura. It seemed as if he had descended from the heavens like a thunder god, being surrounded by thousands of purple lights. Unfortunately, his head was quickly turned into a bald head. With the bald man''s head and the green smoke coming out of his body, he no longer looked like the elegant young master from before. This was not the end. The thunder and lightning energy was unleashed just in time, blasting Zhou Ao''s entire body until it was lacerated. The few fragments that were barely able to touch his vital parts did not harm his life at all. Instead, most of them were stinging. The unimaginable kind was almost comparable to the sum of twenty years of his injuries. His face was covered with mud, so it was hard to tell how he got up there. If he was on the roadside, there would definitely be people who treated him like a beggar. As the Fifth Elder was undergoing closed door cultivation, Liu Chun and the rest of the protectors were busy discussing strategy, and it was actually true that no one came to save Zhou Ao. As more and more disciples gathered outside to watch the show, it could be seen how popular this kid was. Normally, they called him senior brother Zhou well, but when there was something they needed help with, no one would do anything. You guys, all of you... I''ve remembered it ¡­ When the time comes, I will let my grandfather punish you one by one! After being struck down by the lightning pillars, Zhou Ao was almost unable to speak clearly, he vaguely pointed at the people outside. Now, even the disciples who were hesitating whether or not to risk it all and climb onto the line created by Zhou Ao had lost this idea. He was about to summon his invincible grandfather, but he was clearly bullying him. Furthermore, his consciousness had blurred. There were more than a thousand people gathered outside the Spell Formation and they were all crowded together, how could he remember them clearly? Puff! No one seemed to be moved. Even the best friends who had called for reinforcements had been taken to who knows where. Zhou Ao was in complete despair. He spat out a large mouthful of blood, as miserable as he could get. In the end, it was Chen Fan who had arrived in time, which saved Zhou Ao''s little life. Of course, it was not because he felt sympathy for her. The main reason was that the might of this kind of Heavenly Thunder was simply too exhausting for him, and it also wore down his entire Spell Formation. It really wasn''t worth it to waste your efforts on such a bastard. Chen Fan, just you wait, stop putting on an act here! As he continued to curse, Zhou Ao fell to the ground. With great difficulty, he raised his breath, and did not forget to shout at Chen Fan. You haven''t enjoyed yourself enough, have you? A light aura flickered in Chen Fan''s hands, upon seeing this, Zhou Ao''s mind was immediately filled with fear, and he immediately crawled up and disappeared, leaving the dumbstruck crowd behind. If there is nothing else, you can leave first. I will go to Hua Ding Sect in two days and prepare enough Spiritual Stone. After walking into the house, Nangong Xuan started to reply to the ugly face. Chen Fan''s face showed inconvenience as he replied indifferently. Do I have to tell Grandfather about Qing Xuan Sect? Nangong Xuan asked. From the mouth of that prodigal son of Zhou Ao, she had obtained a lot of information. They were all things that could not be discovered using normal methods, and could similarly have a great impact on the marriage between the two sects. For example, the internal strife of the Qing Xuan Sect. As you wish. Nangong Yi will have his judgment, but I need you to pass on a message to him. Chen Fan fixed his gaze on Nangong Xuan, and said with complete certainty. The Qing Xuan Sect will not decline just like this. With me here, there will be a day when they will rise again. These words were similarly Chen Fan''s own inspiration. For a dignified Supreme Wu Tian like his, if he couldn''t even do such a small thing, he would inevitably be laughing at him. I believe you. Nangong Xuan stood up and left, but she could already hear the hidden meaning in her words. She had already thought of how to explain herself in order to be of assistance to Chen Fan. He sat down with his legs crossed and continued with his boring cultivation. Chen Fan had already passed thousands of years of this kind of days, and the tenacious and tenacious state of mind was formed from these little by little tempering. A large amount of spiritual light surged around his body, and the profound Talisman danced in front of his eyes. It was not an ordinary Spiritual Energy''s illusion, but it truly came from the void. He raised his hands and made a grasping motion, followed by the appearance of a gorgeous Talisman. If Lan Yu and the others were to see this scene, they would definitely be greatly shocked. How was this the state of cultivation of a Qi Refining disciple? He could almost catch up to a protector expert. After all, this kind of Talisman represented an extremely high level of comprehension. Tsk tsk tsk, I really didn''t expect this. A strange sound rang out at an inappropriate time. What now? As long as Chen Fan heard the words of the Deer God now, he would subconsciously think that the old fellow was not good. Am I seeing things? Our Supreme Wu Tian is also moved. Deer God laughed shamelessly. Chen Fan realised that as long as he was by his side, playing the role of an encyclopedia was secondary. The key was that she could constantly remind him that he was already a young man. Instead of an old monster with ten thousand years of memories, no matter what, he had to pay attention to his image and seize this opportunity to start all over again. If not, in the future, he would become a strange being, neither human nor ghost ¨C although it was very possible that this was the case for Deer God from the moment his consciousness was born. You think too much. This is just a normal exchange of benefits. It has nothing to do with the feelings you speak of. With a single sentence, Chen Fan rejected Deer God''s guess. How could he admit it? I understand, you don''t have to explain. Deer God''s tone sounded like he needed a beating. If it wasn''t inconvenient for him to make a move, Chen Fan would really drag him out and rub him twice. C60 This little girl has the name of the Holy Maiden, and her background is not bad. If you can take this ride, your plan of recovering your strength will be greatly advanced. Boring. Chen Fan rolled his eyes, he felt rather speechless towards the old fellow. This kind of Heaven''s Path Clone was born without the Longevity''s restrictions, so it was really too idle every day. He had never thought of being soft on someone. As a Zhi Zun, his face didn''t allow him to do that kind of thing, not to mention that he hadn''t fallen to the point of relying on nepotism. Even without Nangong Xuan''s help, Chen Fan still had other means. To be able to once again rise to prominence on this continent in the shortest time possible, the fame of the Supreme Wu Tian would still once again resound through the entire Cultivation Realm. Then tell me, what impression do you have of Nangong Xuan, the type that doesn''t have any prejudices, that I, an old man, can help you analyze. Deer shook his head, looking like a living old stick, even though the chances of getting a clone of the Dao of the Heavens were very low. Her looks were still acceptable. Chen Fan only had four simple comments, one that he did not think about at all. He had seen countless Holy Maiden ten thousand years ago. The alluring fox girl, the noble and pure goddess, and the weird ice snow fairy all had their own unique features. Compared to them, Nangong Xuan was indeed a little ordinary, and only Zhou Ao that kind of person would shock the heavens. If it were not for her heavenly body, Chen Fan would not have raised any interest at all, much less like the Deer God had said, where it actually gave rise to feelings between a man and a woman. Do you see that? Let me say that your mind is moved. If it were anyone else, they would not have bothered talking to me for such a long period of time. If this was in the past, when someone dared to call him that, Chen Fan, he would have already been dragged out for a quarter of an hour. Now, he did not have the slightest temper to be destroyed by the Deer God. He currently did not have the ability to suppress the Heaven''s Path Avatar forcefully, but if he really had the chance, he did not mind showing the Deer God some of his abilities. Chen Fan:... The room fell into silence, he did not say anymore, the old fellow would not have reached the stage where he could talk to himself, he was still the one who liked the Spiritual Stone the most. With a casual wave of his hand, over a hundred thousand Spiritual Stone appeared in front of him. Taking a deep breath, he looked as if his entire being''s vitality had increased by a lot. Chen Fan cheerfully activated the Wanhua Sacred Art, and immediately, pure energy began to flow into his body, moving towards the eighth level of Qi Refinement. It had to be said that it had the benefit of having a long memory and was extremely beneficial to one''s cultivation. It was equivalent to walking the path of cultivation once more in a disguised manner. Not only was their foundation more solid, their speed of improvement was also much higher than those so-called geniuses. After all, they had never experienced this process before. All of the meridians in his entire body had to be tempered by Spiritual Energy before one could be considered to have completed the preparation for the Qi Refining stage, and thus charging into higher Foundation Building Stage. However, many cultivators would take this detour, often neglecting many of the hidden meridians that were located at the ends of their fingers. Normally, they wouldn''t even notice it. However, once he entered the realm, all of it would come pouring out at once, making him miserable. If his body was not strong enough, then he might fail at breaking through. Chen Fan, who was currently wrapped in divine light, was not worried at all. He was even more proficient than the elders, and even the slightest of meridians would not be able to escape his eyesight. He had already observed the structure of his body for over ten thousand years. In such a long time, even a pig could clearly count the hairs on its temples. With the activation of the Myriad Manifestation Scripture, the Spiritual Stone in front of him started to decrease, and started to disappear at a visible speed, all of them transforming into''s body full of strength. He had not placed this cultivation technique in his eyes before. No matter what, he had never thought that it would one day be of great use. Wu, looks like my eyes are still as good as ever. Not only is Cao Rui a big boss, his master also has something in him. In the Zifu Space, Deer God laid down lazily, but his old eyes were focused on Chen Fan''s every movement. Ever since he had been refined into a Dao Burning Furnace, he had not had the chance to truly come into contact with and understand the latter before he was suppressed without any explanation. The Deer God had nothing to say as he forcefully tied himself to the boat. Compared to that, he needed Chen Fan''s help even more. After observing him for a while, Deer God found out that there was a reason why this "young man" could become a Supreme Wu Tian. At the same time, he believed even more in the fact that Chen Fan had reached the peak of his cultivation once again. With a hum, the barrier at the eighth level of Qi Refinement was quickly melting. This was a good sign. The current Chen Fan was like a natural puppet, unceasingly instilling Spiritual Energy into his body, until it was completely filled. However, the strength of his fleshly body far exceeded the limits of his realm, so it was easy for him to need tens of thousands of Spiritual Stone to fill his stomach. He had never seen a Qi Refining disciple who required such a huge amount of resources to sustain his cultivation. Even a rich elder like Zhou Ao would probably not be able to support himself. Puff! Puff! Puff! He also did not forget the existence of the Heavenly Feather Seven Transformations. Two wings spread out from his back, and a purer Spiritual Energy was imbued inside. This was equivalent to obtaining ready-made flying treasures for himself. Of course, he would need to refine them as much as he could, and he would have to spend several times more energy than his physical body. The patterns on the two feathers were even more complex than the meridians in his body which were in a complete mess. Chen Fan once again plucked out a group of Spiritual Stone. He was absolutely sure that his previous guess was being proven step by step. With regards to Nangong Xuan''s strange illness, it definitely had something to do with Cao Rui. It was very possible that he was the one who had made his move several thousand years ago and inserted a similar curse into the Nangong Clan''s bloodline. After reincarnating into Nangong Xuan''s body, there was coincidentally Chen Fan''s act of kindness. The first thing he did was to get the first bucket of gold for recovery. Without Nangong Yi''s few million Spiritual Stone, if Chen Fan wanted to trap Liu Chun and the others, he really had to think it over carefully, not to mention being able to squander everything so freely. Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, two days had passed. When Chen Fan opened his eyes again, he was already a true Qi Disciple level 8 cultivator. It was hard to say if they were strong, but more than a hundred thousand Spiritual Stone were just attacked and entered. Under the personal supervision of Qin Sheng and Zhao Xu, even if Liu Chun and the others were a thousand times unwilling, they could only damage their own pockets and return the Spiritual Stone that they lost to them. In the blink of an eye, over two million Spiritual Stone had been accumulated under his Pingquan Peak. This enormous sum of money was definitely a piece of fresh fat meat to the declining Qing Xuan Sect. However, no one dared to have any thoughts about Chen Fan. Everyone had seen how troublesome it was for Chen Fan to be able to create so many Spiritual Stone s out of thin air. It was just like a miracle. C61 Now that things had progressed to this point, there were even people who helped him settle the score. If it had started from the day he had entered the Qing Xuan Sect, it would only be a short forty days or so now. In such a short period of time, Chen Fan''s net worth had dramatically risen from zero to nearly ten million, which was almost equal to the total income of the Qing Xuan Sect disciples that had been busy for most of the year. The speed at which he was earning Spiritual Stone suddenly became enigmatic within the Sect, attracting the attention of countless people. After a day, he would earn more than two hundred thousand Spiritual Stone. Even if one guarded the mouth of the ancient spring, they still might not be able to produce as much as they did. In the blink of an eye, another five days passed. Chen Fan had basically become a miser and continuously transformed into different small hills of Spiritual Stone. His cultivation was also advancing by leaps and bounds. Apart from the bet that he had won in the Martial Arts Practice Grounds, the anger of over ten thousand disciples had also greatly increased. The Heavenly Heart Formula''s absorption did not care about the number of people, or the opponent''s cultivation level, as long as they were in a certain range, they would explode with anger. This time, Protector Liu and the rest have been humiliated, I''m afraid the next one will be the Fifth Elder who will personally look for trouble with you. The Deer God reminded. In order to survive in this kind of great Sect, aside from the fact that the first factor was one''s own strength, scheming was also essential. Uuu, I heard that Bai Yu and the Fifth Elder have been very close recently. Chu Tian did not have any other thoughts, this was what Zhao Xu had told him. It was no wonder that Qian De had always disliked himself. He had actually met the throne of an elder that had been in his place for a long time, and he had almost been intercepted and killed halfway by Chen Fan. Fortunately, the Ancient Token of Grand Master''s power was almost at its peak. Otherwise, it was still unknown whether Bai Yu would be able to succeed on the throne of the Eighth Elder. What plans do you have for the future? You can''t just hold back on your Pingquan Peak, it won''t suit your status as a Supreme Wu Tian. The Deer God had a deeper meaning, deceiving others had always been his strong point. He would first look for Lan Yu and ask for his Ancestral Master''s corpse, then find a place to go out and gain some experience. Chen Fan had a very clear goal, but he made a small contribution with his Qing Xuan Sect, so those old fellows seemed to still owe him a huge reward. Believe me, they see that skeleton as more important than their own. There''s no way I can give it to you, let alone take it down. The Deer God said with certainty. He had seen the appearance of the ancestor before, and he could be considered as a young master at that time. After he had inherited the Qing Xuan Sect from Cao Rui, he had then personally recommended to be the founder of the first generation, roaming around the world by himself and did not care about these false reputations. At that time, perhaps no one would have thought that after almost ten thousand years, that ancestor would still be protecting his Qing Xuan Sect, and was truly competent. Who is Chen Fan, hurry up and come out! At this time, a furious roar came from the side of the Spiritual Peak, causing Chen Fan to frown slightly. Bang! Before he could say anything, another loud sound rang out, as if something fell onto the ground, and it felt extremely heavy. Hehe, there''s going to be a good show. The Deer God did not mind seeing the excitement, and calmly waited inside the Zifu Space to see the excitement. Chen Fan stood up, suppressed his fury, and walked out of the room. Looking down, he saw a figure standing there, and beside him were two wooden doors. In order to decorate this set of Spiritual Peak, Chen Fan had spent a large sum on an entire thirty thousand Spiritual Stone in exchange for a thousand years of Han Mu in the treasury. It was said that he had once soaked for an extremely long time in an extremely cold environment at the bottom of the ocean, and was able to reconcile the temperature of the entire Spiritual Peak. Only two days ago, Chen Fan had placed him at the entrance to the Spiritual Peak. It looked a bit impressive, but more importantly, it was linked to the protective magical formation, acting as an important eye for the formation. However, before this, they were all standing upright. It was clear that they were knocked down by that brat, yet they still had a swaggering attitude. Who are you? Chen Fan asked without thinking. This youth''s face was very unfamiliar, he had never seen him in the Qing Xuan Sect before, perhaps he came from another Sect. He did not doubt Fifth Elder''s ability. He could easily find an excuse to cause trouble for him. Don''t worry about who I am, hurry up and get rid of this tattered Formation Pattern. Otherwise, don''t blame me for being impolite. The youth was rather irritable as he loudly shouted. But it could be seen that he was somewhat afraid of the great protective formation. He only took one step forward after tearing down the door. Name it and I''ll let you in. Chen Fan asked. Humph, isn''t this just trying to test this young lord''s identity? That young man was extremely arrogant, so he lifted his finger and made a provocative gesture. This young master''s background can scare you to death. Just to be safe, I should prepare a praying mat so that it won''t dirty my shoes when I kowtow and admit my mistake. Chen Fan: "... Deer God:... After hearing these words, Chen Fan was at a loss of whether to laugh or cry. He originally thought that coming to Qing Xuan Sect would already be tyrannical enough, he didn''t expect this guy to actually be. How about you give the title of Zhi Zun to this brat from now on? I think he is the real lawless one. Deer God laughed. In his long life, he had never seen such a wondrous existence. Even Chen Fan was curious as to exactly what kind of background and origin, and how much he doted on her, in order for her to say such words. I am Chen Fan, let us get to know each other, may I ask what your name is? Chen Fan reluctantly agreed. We are disciples of Yuan Sect, and it is also the third elder''s place for Hu Mu. Weng! * After he finished speaking, Chen Fan took a step, and had already cleared a path for the Formation Pattern on both sides. The reason why he had set up this formation was not because he feared anything, nor did he expect it to be able to block any opponents. The main reason was to prevent those disciples who had nothing to do from wanting to come and see his cultivation. As for this useless elder, even his Yuan Sect were not in Chen Fan''s eyes, how could he possibly care about a mere little disciple. If it wasn''t for the fact that you beat me to it, I would never have come to this kind of place in my life. In the end, he was born with a Yuan Sect, Hu Mu had an innate superiority over all other forms of Qing Xuan Sect, and only after sweeping a gaze at the entire Spiritual Peak with extreme disgust, did he finally manage to ascend to the Pingquan Peak. Tell me what you want. Chen Fan invited Hu Mu to sit and personally poured him a cup of tea. It''s your turn to question me? Hu Mu didn''t appreciate the gesture and coldly replied with a sidelong glance. Chen Fan was startled for a moment, and then immediately changed into the attitude of coaxing a child, pinching his nose, then may you tell me, what is the purpose of visiting a humble home? Mn, Hu Mu walked to the side of the hall and walked two rounds, and felt very comfortable with Chen Fan''s respect, and asked lazily. I heard you went to the Hua Ding Sect to propose a marriage? Yes, it''s me. Chen Fan regained his calm demeanor, and started the conversation. He was not really so despicable, and was rushing to curry favor with this so-called Yuan Sect disciple. C62 Go and inform Sect Leader that you have withdrawn from the marriage alliance. Holy Maiden will follow me to cultivate in the future. Hu Mu said in a completely commanding tone, as if it was a matter of course. Could it be that you have also fallen for Nangong Xuan? Chen Fan suddenly thought of a possibility. What Nangong Xuan, is that something you can call?! Hu Mu''s face immediately changed as he shouted harshly. From his reaction, Chen Fan could tell that Nangong Xuan really had someone chasing after him. However, he really couldn''t understand. Even without any discrimination or prejudice, as long as it was a normal man, it would be impossible for him to be interested in the face of the former. Moreover, Hu Mu was a young talent from the Yuan Sect. If he wanted to get close to a woman, what kind of woman couldn''t he find? The Holy Maiden was a peerless beauty that could topple nations. She should have become Dao-companions with the young master, in order to be considered a pair created by the heavens and the earth. Hu Mu was somewhat intoxicated with himself. This fellow called me a young master, for the first time in history, it caused Deer God to be slightly embarrassed, and was completely at odds with the two words "Holy Maiden". This Reverend is very happy that you came to find me because of Holy Maiden. Chen Fan had his hands behind his back, his expression tranquil and cold. But this Reverend does not like the way you informed me. It was not because Chen Fan liked to chase after memories of the past, but because he had never been treated like this before and was even beaten to a pulp. To him, Pingquan Peak was a place to stay for a period of time in the future, and the main gate was just his face. But now, it had been broken by this brat without any explanation, which was practically slapping him in the face. What did you say? Hu Mu was infuriated, who would have thought that he would be rejected. This kind of treatment was simply not possible for a Yuan Sect disciple. Trash, even you are worthy of Nangong Xuan, don''t give yourself such a price. Chen Fan chuckled. Hu Mu: "... Ever since he had joined the Yuan Sect, he had never been so humiliated before. What a strange scene, even Nangong Xuan herself never would have imagined that there would be a day when there would be a young Ranker fighting for her. As for the reason behind all of this, should be because of Nangong Yi. When he saw that his darling granddaughter''s strange illness had improved, he was elated for a moment, and while Yuan Sect Elder was visiting, he introduced Nangong Xuan to them. Twenty years of sulking could be considered to have gone smoothly. Especially when he saw the shocked expressions on the faces of those old fellows, Nangong Yi was quite happy. From then on, the unknown rumors about the Hua Ding Sect and Holy Maiden were replaced with new rumors. Moreover, Nangong Xuan''s original appearance could indeed be described as a peerless beauty in the world. Damn it, a lowly Qing Xuan Sect disciple like you dares to scold me? Naturally, Chen Fan would not know about all this, and the young man in front of him was even less likely to blabber on. He followed his Master to Hua Ding Sect. He had originally wanted to see the legendary Holy Maiden in order to brag about himself to his fellow sect members. How could he have expected to see Nangong Xuan? He was so shocked that he shamelessly asked his master to propose a marriage with him. What made him even more surprised was that Nangong Yi actually said that Hua Ding Sect and Qing Xuan Sect had already married and even mentioned Chen Fan as his golden turtle husband. How could he bear with it? The first thing Hu Mu did was come to his doorstep and immediately rush straight to Pingquan Peak. Without further ado, he unleashed a heavy punch, bringing along the large number of Spiritual Energy s that he had been forced to release, as he ruthlessly smashed towards Chen Fan. The latter calmly moved her feet to dodge the attack. Such a short distance yet not even a strand of hair could be touched. If it was a true expert, they would definitely be able to see through it. Bang! The fist wind collided with a huge rock at the side, causing many cracks to appear in that instant, turning into pieces on the ground. Hu Mu held onto the Seal once again, at the same time, clenched it into a claw, the surrounding air whistled as it rushed forward, quickly arriving in front of Chen Fan. He did not have any intention of holding back. One could even see the spatial fragments at the tip of his fingers faintly expanding. Chen Fan''s expression was calm and his breathing was normal. Using the pair of wings that was faintly discernible on his back to bring about an extreme speed, he dodged once again. Hmph, could it be that Holy Maiden''s fianc¨¦ is really that useless? If she really is a man, then she will fight with this young master fair and square! Hu Mu shouted loudly. He was disgusted by Chen Fan''s continuous dodging, causing him to miss every move. Why is this guy looking for me? Could it be that Nangong Yi revealed some information to him? Seeing Hu Mu fall into a state of madness so quickly, those who did not know better would actually think that he had stolen his wife. It''s not that there''s no possibility, but after Nangong Xuan heard your words, she went back and chatted with Nangong Yi for a bit, and naturally facilitated the marriage. Deer God also followed his analysis, but according to his prediction, Hua Ding Sect would place the position of Golden Turtle Husband in Chen Fan''s heart. First, he would temper himself. After his state of mind was in a state of chaos, he would immediately collapse. Needless to say, this was the kind of person Chen Fan liked the most. Without wasting any time, he would be the type to do things without thinking too much. He was especially good at scheming. The reason why he did not take action was to provoke Hu Mu''s anger. Not only would it make him lose his mind, it would also allow Chen Fan to obtain an unending supply of energy. After deliberately teasing him for a while, Chen Fan received sufficient Spiritual Energy s, and immediately threw them back at him. With the same iron-like fist strength, the two sides were still at least a few thousand kilograms apart. This was not the end. Behind him, Lingyu also shot out rays of divine light, the silver and white colors interweaving, giving off a feeling of a thunder tribulation at first glance. In actual fact, it was also a feast that Chen Fan had specially prepared for Hu Mu. Sssii! * Sssii! * Sssii! * Every white light was changing rapidly. After flashing a few times through the clouds, it appeared to be in a strange purple state. There was even an unimaginable destructive aura being emitted from it. Hmph, not bad. You still have some skill, but in ten rounds, I will still be able to step on you ¡­ Sensing the sharpness of the purple light, fear flashed past Hu Mu''s eyes as well, but retreating was definitely not his style. Ah! Other than a ten-thousand-year old monster like Chen Fan, how could a normal human body resist the attacks of the lightning? Hu Mu immediately fell to the ground, his body trembling non-stop, and green smoke emerging from his body from time to time. Chen Fan was not even here, what''s the point of doing this? Chen Fan crossed his arms and had a lazy look in his eyes, as if he was watching a monkey''s performance. He did not treat Hu Mu as his opponent at all. Her eyes aren''t that good, it''s impossible for her Hua Ding Sect to see through the void and see through me all the way. C63 Conscious that he had received a great insult, Hu Mu once again extended his hand and formed a palm print. Spirit light that was a foot thick turned into a few huge pillars and shot towards Chen Fan in batches. With his level 8 Foundation Establishment stage cultivation, he was able to exert a force of several thousand jin with just a finger print. It was enough to show the might of the blow by crushing a large piece of space along the way. The corner of Hu Mu''s mouth raised into a cold smile. It was as if he saw Chen Fan kneeling at his feet, begging to be spared. But very quickly, he couldn''t smile anymore. His opponent had only flapped her wings a few times before an even larger number of Lingyu charged over and encircled those huge pillars of his. In less than two to three breaths'' time, all of them had turned into their initial state of spirit energy. In reality, this kind of simple Spiritual Energy training was like a gift package to Chen Fan. Relying on the Devouring Power of the Myriad Manifestation Art, it instantly destroyed the outer layer of defense and directly looted all the energy inside. Under his precise probing of the Spiritual Consciousness, he avoided all the sharp auras, and by the time Hu Mu could react, the huge pillar of Spiritual Energy that he had been storing up for a long time had already turned cold. This was impossible! Facing Chen Fan''s calm and collected demeanor, Hu Mu had the urge to kill him. However, he did not know that this was the case, which would increase the opponent''s attack strength even more. He waved his sleeves fiercely, releasing waves after waves of gales, transforming into a dozen or so little snakes in the air and surrounding Chen Fan crazily. Sssii! * It was completely black, and was extremely eye-catching under the bright and resplendent sunlight. Every single one of them was moving extremely quickly, attempting to form a large circle and seal Chen Fan in it. The seemingly simple Spiritual Energy s caused the latter''s head to feel a bit dizzy. He couldn''t tell what was going on, but it seemed as if he had mysteriously been poisoned. His close to ten thousand years of cultivation had told Chen Fan that just Hu Mu''s methods alone were not enough to cause his body to be poisoned. However, his brain became increasingly blurry. His consciousness was still very clear, yet he could not pinpoint where the source of the strange phenomenon was. In fact, even his dodging steps became a little heavy. Heh heh, under the siege of my Eight-note Snake, I''d like to see how you run. Hu Mu once again revealed a smile, he did not know how long he could keep him here. Damn, even if his cultivation was trash during this period of time, he still wouldn''t fall for this kid''s trap. Chen Fan really wanted to slap himself twice. When he heard the word ''sound'', he realized that it wasn''t poison. It was the sound of a few snakes flicking their tongues. It was obvious that he was thinking too complicated. This kind of attack method was quite unique. With the Eight-note Snake''s swaying body as the trigger, it actually unwittingly invaded the Zifu Space, causing a huge impact to the Spiritual Consciousness s. Hmph, you two bugs dare to show off in front of this sovereign, scram! Chen Fan''s response was simple, even if it was restricted by the sound wave, he could still shout back. At this moment, he had displayed the domineering aura of a Supreme Wu Tian, and the winds and clouds of the entire continent were subject to his will, let alone such a small Eight-note Snake. Under Hu Mu''s control, the tongues spit out by those fellows could transform into strange sonic waves, but Chen Fan was like a raging ocean that was overturned, and basically did not have the strength to retaliate. He watched helplessly as the octospider snakes were engulfed and disappeared in succession. However, there was nothing he could do about it, so Hu Mu was extremely angry. He still did not realize the difference between him and Chen Fan, and only assumed that had cultivated a special sound technique by luck. In the eyes of this Yuan Sect disciple, he was only a side character in the end, unable to show off. The difference between the two was an entire realm, and in addition to Hu Mu''s disdain, he never would have thought that there would be any possibility of failure. Pow! A clear and melodious sound came out from the Spiritual Peak, touching his own burning hot cheeks, it seemed to be a little hot, Hu Mu didn''t even manage to react to what had happened. This was the first time he had ever been slapped in the face by someone, and after staring blankly for a long while, his facial features suddenly distorted into something almost sinister. If he could see the marks on his face, his lungs would probably explode. You piece of trash actually dared to hit me? Hu Mu''s entire body was trembling uncontrollably. For the past twenty odd years, he had been under the protection of a lot of elders. There''s no need to thank me. I''m just helping you grow, that''s all. said blandly. The energy that he received from the Heavenly Heart Formula had almost reached the level of a low growl of an elder. According to his standpoint, he did indeed have the thought of deliberately making Hu Mu suffer. It was better if a young person suffered a bit more, otherwise, he would definitely not be able to achieve great things. It was a pity that this Yuan Sect disciple had already won at the starting line, and did not plan to listen to his words at all. Ah! Hu Mu roared, his face turning red, a ball of anger seemed to erupt from his chest, he turned his palm into a blade and used the crudest method to suppress Chen Fan. Only by breaking every single bone on Hu Mu''s body and completely tearing his mouth apart would he be able to calm his mind. Wherever his hands passed by, strands of silvery-white Sword Intent were actually dispersing. This caused Chen Fan''s heart to be slightly moved. Ordinary Spiritual Energy clashed, and there were no collisions between divine weapons. How could there be a connection between them, and it couldn''t help being a little strange. At the same time, Chen Fan activated the Heavenly Feather Seven Transformations to its limits, and with the burst of the resplendent scarlet divine flower, he could instantly reverse it. With his eyesight, he quickly understood the reason. Sword Intent was indeed real, but Hu Mu had not reached the level of being one with the sword yet, he had only hidden a flexible sword inside his sleeves. Being able to be used as a sneak attack weapon at a critical moment could increase one''s fighting strength. Chen Fan could not help but sigh to himself, he was really old, he never thought that the young people these days could play with. He wasn''t an opponent in a fair and open battle and immediately changed his method. Furthermore, he brought along such a destructive software. If he really got stabbed, even if he didn''t die, he would at least get seriously injured. Since you want to kill me, don''t blame me for it. Chen Fan no longer held back. Both of his arms blocked and with an extremely tricky posture, he trapped Hu Mu''s two blades in his palms. This fellow was nothing more than a playboy. He wasn''t anything special. Normally, he was used to being flattered. When he encountered a real life or death battle, he was immediately exposed. Spirit light also came out from Chen Fan''s sleeves, but this time, Chen Fan''s side was supported by high temperatures, causing the surrounding space to become distorted, and even Hu Mu''s flexible sword became completely red. C64 This wave of heat wave had descended extremely suddenly, the current Chen Fan was like a general of the heaven descending, his entire body was enveloped in a divine aura, he casually pointed, his words following the order, causing Hu Mu to become a little fire person. Damn it, this guy could actually control fire?! Even though his entire body was wrapped in heat waves and was emitting green smoke from head to toe, Hu Mu still felt an abnormal coldness. A simple flame would naturally not give him such a feeling, but from inside Chen Fan''s sleeve gushed out a kind of dao flame, the kind that was specifically used to refine Pill, which clearly treated him as a spirit plant to be tempered. He tried to resist and used the rest of the Spiritual Energy s in each of the channels to place a light shield in front of him. After being revived, Chen Fan did not choose those extreme recovery methods, so the strength of his body was still on the verge of collapsing. At this time, Chen Fan had already arrived beside him. His two palms were like iron pincers grabbing onto his body, no matter what powerful technique you had, directly using brute force to bind him, making him unable to move. Little guy, let me ask you something. Today, I deliberately took the time to teach you, what have you learned? Chen Fan intentionally asked, as he had to peel off the last layer of skin on this brat''s body. You bastard, this daddy will go back to Sect to ask for someone, then you brat, you won''t even have the chance to kneel down and beg me! Hu Mu was so angry that he was trembling non-stop. It was unknown whether it was because of his injuries or simply because his temperament was too overbearing. What, you still want to find someone to fix me? Chen Fan raised his hand, and sharp blades began to gather in the air. They were even more solid than real daggers. This old man won''t let you off so easily ¡­ Hu Mu straightened his neck and angrily scolded, causing Chen Fan to have a whole new level of respect for him. The blade was already at his neck, yet he was still so unyielding, but this did not stop him from going a step further. You... How dare you touch me ¡­ Hu Mu had not even finished speaking, but he did not dare make any more large movements. He was shocked to discover that there were a few drops of blood dripping from the ground. He was betting that Chen Fan wouldn''t dare to target him. After all, the gap between Yuan Sect s was too big, even if he was just a direct disciple, he could still receive the kind treatment of a strong protector. There was someone who brought him all the way from the martial ground to the Pingquan Peak, so it was impossible to mention how submissive they were to this point. Unexpectedly, Chen Fan''s blade was just about to cut open his blood vessel. What did you learn today? I''ve said the same thing a second time. Chen Fan''s voice sounded cold. Kid... No no no, Alien Minister Chen, I was wrong, I was really wrong, you spared my life, today it is my, this trash, that has eyes but does not recognize Mount Tai, there definitely won''t be a next time. Feeling the tremble in Chen Fan''s wrist, half of Hu Mu''s heart was cold as he hurriedly begged for forgiveness. Only now did he realize that the former had never cared about his own life, much less the murder case caused by a slip of the hand. Again and again, you make me repeat it a third time, don''t you? A cold light shot out from Chen Fan''s eyes, causing him to feel as though he had fallen into an icy cavern. This kind of situation would not allow for any mistakes. If he were to be harmed, he might as well just die and be satisfied. In an instant, his psychological defenses were completely broken. I will not be so arrogant in the future. I have one thing to say, to be honest, and even more so, to accept the opinions of others. I will not advance greedily while cultivating ¡­ Hu Mu chattered on and on for a long time. He definitely dared to swear that when his Yuan Sect was facing his own master, he had never said such good words. Hmm, looks like you''re quite tactful. This won''t happen again. Chen Fan laughed. Fear could also bring him an endless supply of energy. Otherwise, how could he waste his time on such a person? Get lost. Turning around and returning to his room, Chen Fan carried his hands behind his back, carefully experiencing the battle''s benefits, and no longer paid any attention to the former. After hearing these two words, Hu Mu felt as if he had been granted amnesty, and was even more excited than if he had received an imperial edict. He almost kneeled down on the spot to express his gratitude. Along the way, he staggered and he didn''t even know how he walked down the Pingquan Peak. For a moment, he even thought that he had returned from hell. However, he knew very well that this would be the most humiliating day since he had embarked on his path of cultivation. Of course, Chen Fan did not care about this fellow''s provocation, but it caused a huge commotion in the Qing Xuan Sect. I heard you haven''t, Hu Mu went to the Pingquan Peak to demand an explanation, but in the end he was sent down the mountain by Chen Fan, which is quite tragic. I was wondering why the atmosphere in the Sect wasn''t right these two days, then Hu Mu isn''t someone to be trifled with. Look at this Chen Fan, ever since he came to the Sect, he has been causing all sorts of troubles, so he should be cleaned up early. Many disciples were discussing and none of them expected Chen Fan to have such guts. After all, he was a disciple from the Yuan Sect, an ''second generation elder'' whose background and identity belonged to the root of things. This, if Hu Mu were to invite the master behind his back, he would definitely be in for another round of trouble. With Qing Xuan Sect in the midst of decline to begin with, how could they still endure the wrath of Yuan Sect? Many disciples pointed their spears at Chen Fan, believing that he had brought about a disaster. Stealthily, Liu Chun and the rest were adding fuel to the fire. Walking with all kinds of terrifying demon talk, they couldn''t wait to take this opportunity to get rid of Chen Fan. Since there were still not too much movement from the Yuan Sect, Lan Yu and the elders all pretended to be unaware. The event did not take place, but rather, it happened within their control, waiting quietly for Hu Mu''s counterattack. Alien Minister Chen, you injured Hu Mu? Although he was already used to Chen Fan''s actions, when he heard the news, Zhao Xu still found it hard to believe. Uh, seeing that his cultivation is a bit loose, I casually gave him a few pointers. Chen Fan said disapprovingly. Hu Mu was the direct disciple of the Third Elder of Yuan Sect after all. If they were to pursue the matter further, it would certainly have a huge impact on the entire Sect. Zhao Xu anxiously rubbed his hands together, his forehead was drenched in perspiration. Why, the Yuan Sect has come again? Chen Fan stood up from the praying mat. He was too lazy to bother with such a small matter. Merely because a direct disciple was angry, it caused tens of thousands of people in the Qing Xuan Sect to feel uneasy. However, this also showed the overall lack of confidence in his Qing Xuan Sect, which meant that his mental state was several dozens of percent weaker. C65 It wasn''t, but it would be soon. Zhao Xu frowned, thinking about how Yuan Sect was so difficult to deal with such a monster, it made him feel like he was suffocating. What attitude did Sect Leader and the few elders have? They wouldn''t be flustered just because of a small Hu Mu. Chen Fan continued to ask. From his memories and past experiences of ten thousand years, he would misjudge a lot of times. For example, he had never thought that just because Hu Mu took the initiative to come and provoke them, he would be able to cause such a huge reaction with the Qing Xuan Sect of a transcendent power. As for the silence between Lan Yu and the others, it was actually a form of weakness, as if it had nothing to do with this matter. Even if Yuan Sect were to come for revenge, they would not be able to get involved. It could be said that they were smart, but they were not in the right place. You don''t have to worry too much about it. Do what you have to do and the sky won''t collapse. Chen Fan waved his hands, telling Zhao Xu not to take it to heart. I heard that Hu Mu has a huge background. If his master wants to make a move against you, Sect Leader and the rest will definitely help. Zhao Xu had already started to think for Chen Fan, and had instinctively put himself at the back, in exchange for the latter''s good will from this small detail. "Alien Minister Chen, you should just escape. I''ll help you manage the formation on your Pingquan Peak. You won''t be able to see any clues from it for one or two days. Zhao Xu was not the only one who had that thought, even Qin Sheng had already made preparations, and specially went to work outside the Spiritual Peak to ensure that Chen Fan could safely teleport out. I said it''s fine, and there will definitely be no problems. You two have been worrying too much, so there''s no point in worrying about it. Chen Fan shot a ray of spiritual light, and pushed open the wooden door, indicating that Zhao Xu could leave. Alien Minister Chen, if you really have any problems that you cannot handle, you must tell me. Although your strength is weak, you can at least help out a bit. After his repeated requests had been rejected, Zhao Xu did not say anything more. However, he could vaguely see that Chen Fan had confidence in himself. Although he could not think of where Chen Fan''s confidence came from, he could only silently pray, hoping that the latter would say the truth. Even if the Yuan Sect had not expressed anything up till now, everyone from the Qing Xuan Sect had long become birds frightened by the wind. It''s over, the Yuan Sect has been silent for a long time, I''m afraid they are preparing some big move, the world extermination is coming. Our Qing Xuan Sect has always been in a state of decline. Some people rely on their status as ministers to do whatever they want, and simply don''t care about anything. But now, he had kicked a metal board, provoking someone who was bad. He had forcefully clashed with the Yuan Sect, and was afraid that he would be torn into pieces. When he was in a critical state, it had even developed to the point where there would be people walking around under the Pingquan Peak, gathering together, scolding Chen Fan. Just like during the last few days of the bet, they were all just there to watch the show. However, this time, their mood changed. Regardless of whether there was someone deliberately supporting them or not, they were all worried for their safety. Most of them were pointing fingers at Chen Fan, believing that he should not offend the Yuan Sect disciples. Of course, Chen Fan didn''t have any grand plans, so on the afternoon of the fifth day, he took advantage of the time those fellows were resting to rush to Pindu Peak. The trump card that was placed on Hu Mu''s body was close to screaming, just in time to feel the true attitude of Lan Yu and the others. The daoists on Pindu Peak were clearly surprised by his arrival. After the announcement, they made him wait another half an hour before informing him that he would be received. What are you trying to do, even if you aren''t a Heavenly King Sovereign, you still have to put on a show. Chen Fan said softly, there had never been anyone who made him wait so long. As soon as he entered the hall, he felt that the atmosphere wasn''t right. A few white-haired old men sat down from both sides, and all the current clan elders of Qing Xuan Sect were present. Chen Fan, you actually dared to come here for such a good deed, you have truly disappointed this old man! After Qian De, who had just come out of seclusion, found out about what happened in there, and how he suffered a great defeat in the training grounds, he became so angry that he almost rushed into the Pingquan Peak to argue with Chen Fan. Qian De would not care even if he spent all of his money on Hu Mu. The more trouble it would bring, the more courage Lan Yu would have in the end. But Chen Fan had forcefully taken away a large number of Spiritual Stone s from the hands of Liu Chun and the others, since they were all from Qian De''s family. An entire two million Spiritual Stone, was no less than cutting meat off his body. Fifth Elder, please calm your anger. Just what are we doing today? Chen Fan asked with a puzzled and confused expression. If it wasn''t for the fact that there was this pair of old fellows sitting in the hall, he might have tricked them. "Hmph, don''t tell me you want to let this old man make things clear?" Qian Tong coldly snorted. His face was ugly as well, and it was frighteningly dark. Due to your reckless actions recently, you actually injured the direct disciple of the Yuan Sect''s third elder, causing an uproar within the Sect. "So that''s the matter you''re talking about," Chen Fan revealed a look of enlightenment. He was constantly reminding himself that he was a youngster who had just passed his'' twenties''. I was just about to ask you old corpses for your status as Elders, but you couldn''t do anything about it. The people from Yuan Sect are already acting like sh * t on their noses, and don''t even dare to fart! Chen Fan did not hide anything and revealed his dissatisfaction with the elders and experts. If he was in charge, he would be more than happy to have all of them take turns. This matter was indeed treated wrongly, the gap between us and our Yuan Sect is too big, you are being a little too impulsive. The Great Clan Elder was a man of virtue and prestige, he would not easily be angered, so he spoke to console her. That Hu Mu directly said that he wanted my Qing Xuan Sect to withdraw from the marriage with Hua Ding Sect; I merely taught him a lesson in place of his and didn''t know what mistake it was, let alone what crime it was. Chen Fan reprimanded him without sparing him, but he could only say that he had put on a good show. In reality, he was just a little angry in his heart, and had not fought at all. He had lived for tens of thousands of years. Other than the eight thousand years he had spent in slumber, time had taken away his cultivation. However, his experience could not be taken away no matter how hard he tried. It was just that they remembered that their Qing Xuan Sect had never been so grand and magnificent before. Even though the world had changed and no one could change the outcome of the reincarnation cycle, their decline had still been too fast. At this point, if Cao Rui knew about it, he might not even need to take the initiative to awaken his memories. He might even be able to break the shackles and slap these elders ruthlessly. C66 Even so, you still have to take into account our actual circumstances, our Qing Xuan Sect already doesn''t have any way of bearing the blow, our Yuan Sect is currently staring at you like a tiger eyeing its prey, just missing an excuse. Lan Yu also followed up. From these two sentences, it could be seen that he and the Great Clan Elder were on the same side, in stark contrast to the irritability of Qian De''s faction. And you, this useless Sect Leader, a direct disciple of the Yuan Sect has already caused such a huge impact to your Qing Xuan Sect. Forget about your own dereliction of duty, you are even sulking here. Lan Yu still wanted to say more even if he didn''t want to, but after hearing Chen Fan''s words, he pointed his finger at his, not sparing his any face as he opened his mouth to reprimand his. One day, I will just go and take over the Yuan Sect. I think their soft rice is really delicious. If we can''t discuss it later, we can send these old fellows to the sect with a face full of shame. Chen Fan, you are crazy! Qian De was so angry that his face was flushed red, and he immediately wanted to suppress him. Come on! I''ve been waiting for a long time. Whoever doesn''t make a move today will be the grandson! Chen Fan roared back, holding the Ancient Token of Grand Master in his hand, he shook it to the point that it could move one''s soul. You... F * ck you! Qian De''s entire body surged with fighting intent, he almost lost his reason from anger, but the moment he saw the Ancient Token of Grand Master, he held it back. Even with his overflowing authority, he could not use this Ancient Token as a joke. After all, the fate of the Sect was at stake, and if there was any accident, Lan Yu and the Great Clan Elder would just go all out against him. The rest of the elders were naturally displeased with Chen Fan as well, and only did not one of them try to stop him. Seeing the jade pendant swaying in his hand, they couldn''t help but want to go berserk. With this trump card in hand, as long as it was a Qing Xuan Sect expert, no one would dare to touch it. To be able to make an elder who was hundreds of years old swear, Chen Fan could be considered as the only one in the Qing Xuan Sect. Of course, when he sensed the extreme circulation of the Heavenly Heart Formula and the sudden increase of the Spiritual Energy in his dantian, being able to scold these old fellows who had accumulated enmity for a long time, he did not know how happy he would feel. Chen Fan, don''t be so excited, we have something to talk about, the Fifth Elder is also anxious, don''t bother with him. Receiving Qian De''s gaze, he quickly tried to smooth things over. Right now, his Qing Xuan Sect were growing day by day. If he were to once again destroy this illusory destiny, only God knew what kind of terrifying calamity would occur, and it might even endanger the few people in the palace. I am here today to ask for my reward, and to entrust everyone to Nangong Yi to inform him that marriage is fine, but the one he has decided on cannot be me. With regards to Lan Yu and Qian De''s rotten matter, Chen Fan did not want to get involved at the moment. He had finished saying what he needed to say. He cupped his hands towards the group of old fellows. The news he got from Hu Mu had to cut off this thought of Nangong Yi''s. It would be a good idea to let these old fellows who were also elders communicate with him. Haha, Chen Fan, oh Chen Fan, you will be harmed by his arrogant nature sooner or later, do you really think that you can obtain Nangong Yi''s favor just by walking around the Hua Ding Sect? Qian Jing laughed out loud. Coincidentally, he had a Young Outstanding at his seat, but he was still training in the Wilderness. He was planning to recommend him to be the best candidate for the marriage alliance in the Hua Ding Sect. I just wanted you to propose, that''s all. I never thought you would be so narcissistic, we never thought you to represent Qing Xuan Sect. The decision does not lie with you, I am afraid Nangong Xuan has the final say. When Chen Fan went back to ridicule, everyone knew that Nangong Yi''s love for that precious granddaughter was practically complete obedience. Qing Xuan Sect was so weak that it could only be considered a part of Hua Ding Sect. The meaning behind his words, was that without Chen Fan taking care of Nangong Xuan, this marriage might not have gone smoothly. We will discuss this matter further, so don''t talk about it. The Great Clan Elder had also mistaken Chen Fan as hinting that he wanted to form a marriage with his, so she rejected him immediately. There was no need to think about it at all. An outsider who had just arrived in the Qing Xuan Sect was only barely able to stabilize himself by relying on the Ancient Token of Grand Master, and yet had created such a huge disturbance. Whether or not he would truly be able to stand his ground was still unknown. Even if he thought about it with his toes, it was impossible for him to transfer the qualifications to enter into marriage. It would be great if he could dig me out. Chen Fan spoke from the bottom of his heart, but he felt that it would not be that easy. He had cured Nangong Xuan''s strange illness and even revealed her identity as the descendant of the Ancient Saint to Nangong Yi, so as to obtain the latter''s support. But that old fellow was clearly a cut above him in terms of technique, and actually mentioned it to the Yuan Sect on his own initiative. He had already betrothed Nangong Xuan to him, which was a little unexpected. According to Deer God''s words, a grand heaven''s pride level expert who had roamed the continent for more than a thousand years, would have an incredible future. How could he be suddenly tied down by a Holy Maiden? However, Nangong Yi also agreed. With such a large Hua Ding Sect and an important marriage alliance, listening to a girl''s suggestion and so much of what she said, he made the decision rashly. Lan Yu intentionally or unintentionally added. At least he did not have any darling granddaughter by his side, so he would not be interfered with. Compared to your inaction and weakness, Nangong Yi is thousands of times better. At least he didn''t let his Hua Ding Sect fall into chaos. Chen Fan had hit the nail on the head and all the elders in the hall stopped talking for a moment. The atmosphere also became a little strange at the same time. They knew each other, but no one had ever broken the last window. This was the biggest taboo topic in the Qing Xuan Sect and everyone knew that Lan Yu and Qian De were opposing each other. Furthermore, it did have a huge impact on the level of the Sect. However, all of this was related to one''s own position. It wasn''t easy to get an elder position, so how could any astute old man stand up and criticize them? Instead, they were all divided into different camps. As for your share of the reward, we''ll discuss it after the marriage. The Great Clan Elder waved his hand, signalling to Chen Fan not to speak anymore. Why is this? First, we clearly agreed on the reason. As long as I succeed in proposing marriage, I will be able to obtain a piece of the ancestor''s corpse. asked, looking at all these so-called Top Rankers s, he only liked the old man at the head of the group. The Great Elder''s existence was rather special, and it was not excessive to call him Qing Xuan Sect. It was precisely his existence that balanced out both sides, so that was why no conflicts truly broke out. while trying to persuade Lan Yu''s anger, to try to make peace as much as possible, and also to suppress Qian De''s bad intentions, to control the entire Qing Xuan Sect down to the line of fire. The remains of the ancestor are also very helpful to the Sect, we still need to discuss for a while more before we can give you a reply. The hall was silent for a long time. Every time someone gave an explanation, the Great Elder could only find an excuse. Before, he had only casually accepted, but who would have thought that Chen Fan would really bring back good news from the Hua Ding Sect, and even brought a Holy Maiden himself. Usually, there would be rewards, but Chen Fan''s request, in the eyes of the Great Clan Elder and the others, was simply asking for a reward. If you do this, even more disciples will be disappointed. After the success, you have not shown any signs of concern after such a long period of time. In the future, if something similar happens, I''m afraid no one will be willing to put their life on the line. Chen Fan''s eyes lit up, at this moment, he was using his status as an experienced person to remind the few old fellows, he could not let them continue tormenting himself with his Qing Xuan Sect. Enough, we will not interfere in the matter of Yuan Sect, go handle it yourself. Qian De said in a sentence as if it was a double entendre. He could no longer tolerate Chen Fan''s tone and attitude, and it actually made him feel like he was once taught a lesson by his master, causing him to become even more furious. The reward for proposing the marriage will naturally be explained as well, but before Holy Maiden truly determines the person to marry, don''t wishful thinking. Good. Chen Chu nodded and turned to leave. On the surface, he did not obtain any gains, but during this conversation, he actually saw the upper echelons of the Qing Xuan Sect being split apart, so in the future, he was able to make use of this contradiction. As for the ancestral master''s corpse, there was naturally another way. At that time, Lan Yu and the others would have no choice but to open the treasury, remove it obediently, and hand it over to him. Heh heh, you brat, you''ve still been humiliated. Deer God said while laughing merrily in his Zifu Space. It doesn''t matter, it won''t take long to make up for it. Chen Fan was very confident. Don''t think that just because you touched Hu Mu that you can hide it from me. Go up to the Yuan Sect another day and be careful of your safety. The Deer God reminded. At most, he would just throw the Dao Burning Furnace out. I think it should be enough to protect himself. Chen Fan flicked his finger, and the Furnace Body buzzed. He was not surprised that the Deer God was able to find out the truth. "Brat, if you dare to do that, I''ll fight you to the death!" Initially, he was only trying to probe for more information. He did not expect Chen Fan to actually plan to use Dao Burning Furnace s. Don''t worry, you can actually be my spy. Enjoy some good fortune with the Yuan Sect, and come back after you''ve pretty much recovered. Chen Fan laughed, it was rare for him to be able to make a fool out of the old fellow. Deer God:... The criticism from the Sect continued, Chen Fan could not be bothered to pay attention to them, and calmly waited for the good news to come. Lan Yu and Qian De''s way of handling the situation had made him very disappointed, and it was already clear that they did not want to interfere. If Yuan Sect were to offend him again, they would not hesitate to push the trouble onto themselves. Furthermore, the words that Hu Mu had said were completely out of the former''s consideration. Sect Leader and the elders were silent, but Liu Chun and the others finally had a chance to turn the tables on them, and wanted to take the chance to drive Chen Fan out of the Sect. To be able to climb up to the high position of a protector, and to have Qian De advise them from behind, it was naturally not that simple. After all, Chen Fan still had the key trump card in his hands. He could even think of Liu Chun''s plan, using this as an excuse to completely curse Chen Fan out of the blue amongst the disciples in the sect, and create the image of him as the source of all the trouble. C67 When the three month deadline came to an end, if they were to hand over the Ancient Token of Grand Master, even if they did not personally step in, they would still be chased and cursed by tens of thousands of disciples all day long. In such an extreme situation, Chen Fan was happy to stay on his own land. In any case, with the River Formation stopping him, those guys wouldn''t be able to bother him. On the fourth day since the return of the Pingquan Peak, news had finally arrived, and it had actually come from the Hua Ding Sect. Alien Minister Chen, the Nan Gong Sect Leader personally delivered a message to you, asking you to come over! Zhao Xu jogged all the way to inform Chen Fan. If he was not mistaken, the news should have spread throughout the Qing Xuan Sect. At this special juncture, when Nangong Yi used the authority of the Sect Leader to invite Chen Fan to the Hua Ding Sect, it was truly worth pondering over. Lan Yu and Qian De were still as unmoving as mountains, clearly showing that they wanted to pretend to be blind. The kind that had to be beaten to death. Whether it was Yuan Sect or not, as long as it had something to do with Hu Mu. Who told you this? Chen Fan asked. He was curious as to how Lan Yu suppressed his anxiety and pretended to ignore this matter. If he really captured or went to the Hua Ding Sect area, Lan Yu and the others would not be the slightest bit moved. However, the Ancient Token of Grand Master forced those old fellows to compromise. Under the condition that they were unable to defy Nangong Yi ¡ª extremely likely to be accompanied by the will of their Yuan Sect, they could only comfort Chen Fan. The third elder told my master and also mentioned something about the ancestor''s skeleton, telling you to keep it a secret. After saying that, Zhao Xu took out a Jade Chip. Well, it looks like someone can''t sit still. Chen Fan laughed, he was finally able to walk around. After probing into the Spiritual Consciousness, one would discover that the Jade Chip contained the records of Lan Yu and the Great Clan Elder''s Dao oaths. As long as Chen Fan guaranteed that the Ancient Token of Grand Master would not fall into other people''s hands, he would be able to have a share of the ancestor''s corpse. Could it be that Sect Leader Nan Gong wanted to protect Alien Minister Chen? Zhao Xu guessed. Although both he and Qin Sheng did not personally participate in the marriage proposal, more or less, they had personally witnessed Chen Fan''s'' miracle ''at the Hua Ding Sect. Maybe the Yuan Sect was pressuring the Hua Ding Sect, so Nangong Yi used his hands to get me over. Chen Fan spoke with deeper meaning, there were some things that he could not tell Zhao Xu, and if he was not strong enough, the more information he knew, the greater the threat he would face. Ah? That wouldn''t really be dangerous, would it? Zhao Xu''s expression changed, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that it was possible. The Yuan Sect had dominated the First Sect for more than a thousand years, and had wanted to take action against other transcendent powers. I injured their direct disciples, so even if I don''t rise to the Sect level, I''m sure Hu Mu''s master won''t let this go easily. Chen Fan did not finish speaking, with his hands behind his back, he walked to the window and looked into the distance. The disciples and Liu Chun were definitely stunned. If it wasn''t convenient to use the name of Yuan Sect, Nangong Yi would help them fish him out. In any case, Lan Yu and Qian De wouldn''t care at all. Alien Minister Chen, how about I follow you, more or less, have some help. Zhao Xu muttered to himself for a bit and made his decision. You? I''m on my way to die. Chen Fan deliberately asked for a test. Heh heh, I''ve always had good luck, so I won''t go down so quickly. Zhao Xu pointed to the ground with a resolute expression. As long as you have this kind of heart, you should look after the house properly. Don''t let others tear it up. Wait for me to come back and settle the score. Naturally, Chen Fan would not let Zhao Xu follow him. He got up and went down the Pingquan Peak, but there were still so many disciples that had gathered on the way. He really wanted to ask if they didn''t need to cultivate or something. They would waste their good time just to watch the show, causing others to feel that they had failed in their task. Go, go, go! What are you looking at? Zhao Xu followed closely behind, continuously attacking and attacking from behind. Sect Leader and the elders cannot lose face, we do not have that much of a scruple, he is just a troublemaker. That''s right, I just got lucky to get a Ancient Token of Grand Master, and it actually became even stronger, wanting to snatch the benefits from my Qing Xuan Sect. No matter how much benefits we give him, it''s useless. We should hurry up and chase him out of our Qing Xuan Sect. In view of the previous scene they had witnessed on the martial ring, even though these disciples were dissatisfied, they would not attack. At most, they would only discuss about it. You can go back now. If there''s nothing else, don''t come down. Chen Fan turned and instructed Zhao Xu. After such a long time, the latter''s cultivation had almost stabilized. Moreover, it was about time for him to go through another baptism. However ¡­ Hearing this, Zhao Xu was a little hesitant at first, but after hearing the latter half of the sentence, his eyes immediately lit up. In Chen Fan''s eyes, this might not be a short period of time, but from what he sensed, it had only been half a month. Following his instructions, Zhao Xu withdrew his Pingquan Peak and activated the entire formation to prevent any mishaps. Ever since he had decided to follow Chen Fan, he had made this guess. Sensing the abundant Spiritual Energy s circulating quickly in his body, Zhao Xu did not regret his decision at all. On the contrary, he was even more determined. Even though his master could not tell what Chen Fan was up to, after getting along with him for so many days, Zhao Xu was very sure that he was not the bastard that those disciples were talking about. If a normal person had outstanding talent, they would be able to help him raise his cultivation. Even if he did not follow Chen Fan, Zhao Xu did not know what other path he could take. Facing thousands or even tens of thousands of strange gazes, Chen Fan walked to the martial arena in a very calm manner. The Jade Chip inside his sleeves made him a little excited. Even though he calculated the cycle of the heaven, he did not expect that after so many years, he would return to this world. He did not receive any help from the Qing Xuan Sect, and instead, the external force from the Hua Ding Sect pushed him. Fate makes a fool of people. Sighing, Chen Fan could not help but feel somewhat regretful. Help me open my Domain Gate, I want to go to Hua Ding Sect to look for Sect Leader Nan Gong. As his voice fell, a familiar voice entered Chen Fan''s ears. There were not enough Spiritual Stone left, so they could either wait or fly away. Coincidentally, they had actually run into the few fellows who were guarding the Domain Gate again. Was it really gone today, or was it just a fake? Chen Fan asked calmly. He had clearly seen someone being teleported away through Domain Gate. Hmph hmph, you have cheated Protector Liu and the rest of the Spiritual Stone, no matter what I say, I can''t let you go today. The leader, Wang Kai, angrily said with his eyes wide open. That''s right, if we want to activate Domain Gate, then Spiritual Stone must pay for itself, and only with a reward of five times or more. The remaining two disciples shouted as well. Chen Fan looked at them and shouted back and forth like a bunch of monkeys jumping up and down in their act. And who are you following orders from, you can''t possibly have to disobey even Sect Leader Nan Gong''s invitation, right? We do not know what Sect Leader Nan Gong is. In any case, in the Qing Xuan Sect, if you offend the Protector Liu, there will be no good ending for you. If you keep your mouth shut about outer sect experts, why don''t you just go over to Hua Ding Sect? Why must you shamelessly stay here at our Qing Xuan Sect? Wang Kai waved his hand and immediately shut down the Formation Pattern near the Domain Gate. From this, it could be seen just how much power Qian De had within the Qing Xuan Sect, and even a few disciples who guarded the Domain Gate belonged to his faction. Even Chen Fan started to suspect if he and Lan Yu had reached some sort of agreement at that time. The middle level protector was under his control, while the latter lured the high level elders and experts along. If that was really the case, then it could only be said that Qian De''s scheming was too deep, and to extend his tentacles so densely within the Qing Xuan Sect, he would need at least several dozens of years. Relying on Liu Chun and the other few tens of protectors'' foundation, Qian De''s position in the Sect was unshakable. Once he fell down from the tree, even half of his Qing Xuan Sect would be affected, and that kind of price was not something Lan Yu and the rest could bear. Qian De''s path could be learned, and he could support and support a few other protectors. Shaking his head, Chen Fan stopped thinking about it. It was still a little far away for him, and now leaving the Qing Xuan Sect was even a problem. There''s only one warning. Get out of my way. Wang Kai and the other two disciples all stood up with faces full of anger. They were still holding onto their respective magical equipment, clearly showing that they would not hesitate to fight with each other. Bang! Bang! Bang! Naturally, there was nothing much to say. Nangong Yi was still waiting at the Hua Ding Sect, he would never waste too much time on this kind of trash. He quickly waved both his hands, turned his palms into blades, and ruthlessly struck Wang Kai''s waist from an extremely tricky angle. Ah! This was one of the most deadly acupoints. Wang Kai let out a blood-curdling scream as he rolled on the ground for a few times before he finally came to a stop. Without waiting for the brilliant completion of this scene, Chen Fan brought all five of his fingers together, and once again shot out several beams of light, respectively flying towards the bodies of the three disciples. Along with the magical equipment in their hands, they did not even have the chance to move, and were immediately drowned out by the surging Spiritual Energy. With a clang, only Wang Kai could barely stand up. A Lex Sabre slashed at Chen Fan''s left arm, but it did not bleed like he expected. After a period of tempering, Chen Fan''s fleshly body had already levelled up by several levels. Although it had not reached the stage where it could truly withstand a magical equipment, the stimulation from Wang Kai''s sword was no different from scratching an itch. I really don''t know where you guys got the courage from. Like I said last time, if I meet you again, there''s only death waiting for you guys. Chen Fan''s voice was ice-cold, not leaving the slightest bit of face for her. To be able to reprimand the elders while they were at Pindu Peak, these unimportant people, since they decided to be Liu Chun''s henchmen, they must have the awareness of being cut off. C68 The Heavenly Feather Seven Transformations shot out hundreds of Lingyu s that filled the sky, and seemingly enveloped all of them in an instant, causing them to be unable to even move. After being struck by Lingyu, his entire body was riddled with wounds of varying degrees. Blood was flowing profusely, and his vitality and cultivation was being consumed at a rapid rate. It had only been a few rounds, but after Wang Kai''s Lex Sabre was thrown away, they no longer had any room to fight back. The wind formed under their feet as their speed increased to the utmost limit. Not only were their fists able to fight against four people, they were also able to crush all the surrounding Spiritual Energy s. Even though they were all around the sixth level of Qi Refining, they were not even worth mentioning in Chen Fan''s hands. I warned you, but no one listens. After exterminating all of them, each and every one of them fell to the ground and cried out miserably. Chen Fan only felt that these fellows were really pitiful. Just you wait, I''ll go and tell Protector Liu Chun right now, he won''t let you off! From the looks of it, he still wanted to find a helper. However, he did not plan to take it lying down. In fact, there was no reason for him to do so either. Crack! The Lex Sabre that he picked up from the ground directly pierced Wang Kai''s heart, causing him to spurt out a mouthful of blood. He had killed someone! Chen Fan had killed someone from the Sect! The remaining two disciples were both stunned. They immediately shouted in a stern voice as their legs went limp. Their rationality had completely collapsed. After all, as outer sect disciples who had entered the Sect, they had not seen corpses these past few years. But just killing Wang Kai in front of everyone''s eyes, one could imagine the psychological impact it had on them. It was a huge mess this time. Following the laws of Qing Xuan Sect, if someone were to kill a fellow sect member without reason, they would be severely punished. There was even a possibility of his cultivation being crippled and expelled. As a result, in all these years, although there were many arrogant and despotic people, there were very few murders. So noisy. The so-called restriction by the law was practically zero to Chen Fan. He had never cared about those things. Since this Wang Kai had a short memory, he should learn to pay the price for his recklessness. If Chen Fan was the Sect Leader, such a person would not be able to survive in the Sect species at all. Instead, it was by borrowing his power to get rid of him. The Formation Pattern lit up, and the familiar door finally appeared. Chen Fan took a step inside, and around him, a large amount of spatial turbulence surged. The ingenuity of this kind of Domain Gate lay in being able to traverse through the void and shorten the distance traversing millions of miles to the extreme. In just a short span of four hours, one had already arrived at their destination. After arriving at the Hua Ding Sect, Chen Fan went straight to Nangong Yi''s training area, but it was also because he was familiar with it. How about recently? The first time he saw that peerless beauty, it was the source of the Wall of Desolation. Not bad, I can clearly feel the power of resentment weakening, and the effect on my face also decreases. Nangong Xuan replied. She touched her own smooth face, even up till now, her heart still felt a little dazed. She did not expect the problem that had been troubling him for twenty years to actually be solved. She, the Holy Maiden who endured all kinds of supercilious looks and rumors, finally had a day when she was able to turn things around. The person who was the happiest about this change was Nangong Yi on the contrary. He watched helplessly as his precious granddaughter was tormented by pain and he was unable to do anything as he became a sect Sect Leader. Now that hope had finally appeared, Nangong Yi was the first to use a disguise technique to extend Nangong Xuan''s original appearance. Of course, with Chen Fan''s guarantee, Nangong Yi and his grandson wouldn''t have to be afraid anymore. He would first not be in a hurry to prepare the treatment and have the Sect Leader prepare enough Spiritual Stone s. Only after three days can he start his next expulsion. Since he was here, Chen Fan naturally wanted to make a big deal out of it. After all, this kind of opportunity could not be found anytime, and would require the appearance of both a poverty-stricken person and a strange illness. If not, without sufficient rewards, Chen Fan would not bother to make a move. Alright, I''ll do as you say. Nangong Xuan rolled her eyes. These few million Spiritual Stone were also not a small number for her Hua Ding Sect, but it wasn''t enough to make things difficult for her. Hearing this, Chen Fan couldn''t help but sigh emotionally in his heart. Both of them were Sect disciples, the difference between their strengths was just too big. Why did Sect Leader Nan Gong want me to come over? asked. The most important thing was, to him, Nangong Xuan''s strange illness was something that he could cure easily. A message came from the Yuan Sect, asking you to come over. Tell me, what identity did you prepare for me? After hearing what Nangong Xuan said, Chen Fan immediately came to a decision. The reason why Nangong Yi took the initiative to ask for an invitation to Qing Xuan Sect wasn''t only to protect him, but also to invite him here. Of course, it was not to denounce Nangong Xuan for her crimes, the latter definitely had the confidence to do so. Only then did she ask Nangong Xuan, the good opportunity she had been waiting for had finally come. He had even planned how he was going to trap the Yuan Sect. It was even bigger than the Hua Ding Sect, so he had to let them see the blood. How do you know? Nangong Xuan''s face paled, her small face was filled with shock, she did not reveal any information to Chen Fan, but why did she look so confident? The most important thing was that Nangong Yi had prepared a new identity for him, one that was even used to fool the Yuan Sect. What did I say? If you want to deceive Mr. Chen, it''s just a joke. Nangong Yi laughed out loud and walked into the room. Obediently follow Chen Fan to the Yuan Sect realm, and settle all the matters there is. Don''t let that Hu Mu have any other thoughts, the Hua Ding Sect realm doesn''t welcome him. Yes, I know. Nangong Xuan awkwardly agreed but she still looked at Chen Fan with a head full of fog, unable to figure out the reason. If he and his grandfather did not get along, the two of them would not even have had the chance to meet, and Nangong Xuan would definitely think that he and Chen Fan had teamed up to lie to each other. Alright, no matter how you say it, laughter does not matter. Quickly, tell me about the situation regarding Yuan Sect. Chen Fan''s face was stern, he could not be bothered with what kind of joke the grandfather and grandson were playing. In reality, however, it was Nangong Yi and Nangong Xuan who had made a bet. The former had predicted that Chen Fan would be able to guess the ins and outs of everything after knowing that he was going to the Yuan Sect. The latter herself would never believe it. She said that if Chen Fan did not point it out, she would not need to follow him to the Yuan Sect ¡ª ¡ª Someone had to clean up Hu Mu''s mess. Who would have thought that Chen Fan''s words would be the truth? No matter how unwilling he was, he had to follow along. C69 This was clearly Nangong Yi''s mistake, to introduce his precious granddaughter prematurely, but Hu Mu was thinking of doing so, and just refused to marry. Only the juniors, and even Nangong Xuan herself, who had made a name for themselves, would be able to cut off the thoughts of Hu Mu and the others in the Yuan Sect. It just so happened that the Yuan Sect also had some troublesome symptoms. After hearing about the oddity of my Hua Ding Sect, the sect told them about Mister''s miracles ¡­ When Nangong Yi spoke, he had already addressed Chen Fan respectfully as Mister. This was definitely the first time such a thing had happened in the entire continent''s Cultivation Realm. For a dignified Sect Leader to be so respectful to a young man who was not even twenty years old, even if he had outstanding talent, it would still be a little excessive. You can say whatever you want here, but you have to guarantee that she won''t reveal anything. When she calls out her surname, it will all be seen through. Chen Fan stared at Nangong Xuan with interest. The key to this trip, was still with this Holy Maiden. As expected, he had already foreseen what would happen today when he once again channeled the grievances and resentment he felt from the latter into Hu Mu''s meridians. In less than ten days of effort, the resentment had flared up. Hu Mu did not have the heaven''s resentment and the devil''s luck, so he was definitely in extreme pain, as if he was in extreme pain. With regards to that grudge, the entire Yuan Sect was completely helpless against it. Furthermore, with Chen Fan''s confidence, there was no longer any strong practitioner in this world who could see through the heavenly resentment in their body. There might be two more people. One was him, and the other one was still at Zifu Space, watching the show. Xuan''er, from now on, until you leave the Yuan Sect, you must pay more attention. Sir Chen''s identity is a genius doctor, a Master Gu who has lived in seclusion in the Wilderness for many years. Nangong Yi reminded him repeatedly. He was telling Chen Fan about the new origins he had, and that it was enough to help him deal with the probing of his Yuan Sect. Seeing that Hu Mu''s condition was deteriorating day by day, the people from the Yuan Sect were naturally anxious. When they heard that the strange illnesses in the Holy Maiden had been cured over twenty years ago, they hurried over to ask about it. This was how the so-called Master Gu was addressed. Of course, the old fellow was very clear about the conflict between Chen Fan and Yuan Sect, and that he did not wish to reveal his identity at the moment. He might as well first invite him over, and then, as a Divine Doctor living in seclusion, he could go to the Yuan Sect for diagnosis and treatment. As for why such strange symptoms suddenly appeared out of nowhere after Hu Mu gave him a beating, Nangong Yi did not bother to make any further speculations. Whatever, I''ll just listen to you. Chen Fan waved his hands. It didn''t matter to him what he called. Mr. Chen, even though Hu Mu that brat is a bastard, his grandfather has quite a bit of power in Yuan Sect. Should we first take a look at his symptoms ¡­ Nangong Yi took out a Jade Chip, and carved on it were the current state of Hu Mu''s body. It was also to remind Chen Fan that the name of the Divine Doctor had already been forged. No matter, even if Hades wants to take him away, he''ll have to wait until I leave. Chen Fan was extremely confident as he walked toward the Domain Gate with his hands behind his back. Well, all right. Nangong Yi kept the Jade Chip and signaled her to be more obedient. Now was not the time for her to have such a temper. Mr. Chen paused for a moment, not in a hurry. Nangong Yi had already had the intention to recruit Chen Fan since a long time ago, and even said that he would give him the position of deputy. Hu Mu, that brat, didn''t have much self-control. After persisting for so long, he was about to reach his limit, so I decided to speed up my pace a little. Chen Fan said in a faint voice. If the former could not endure it any longer and died, then all his plans would have been in vain. Good news from our sect, Mr. Chen. Nangong Yi said in a deep voice. Although he did not agree with some of Chen Fan''s words, it could even be described as arrogant ¡ª but this sort of thing, who could say for sure? The Domain Gate had already been activated, and were only waiting for the two of them. Sect Leader''s goal was too big, too dazzling, and he did not follow to send them off. Furthermore, there was no need for so many people to go there brazenly, just by Nangong Xuan alone, it was clear how much importance Hua Ding Sect he had placed on them. The latter intentionally took out a mask that was extremely soft, and should have been made from the skin and flesh of some kind of Demonic Beast. Grandfather has prepared this for you, it''s called Thousand Faces. Even he couldn''t tell that something was wrong, so he can just relax and go become your Godly Doctor. Nangong Xuan said snappily. Even though she was in Holy Maiden, she was still a girl, and getting beaten up by her own grandfather must have made him feel a little uncomfortable. Okay. Chen Fan did not reject it. The use of this thing was very big. If it was before when he did not open the Dao Burning Furnace''s seal, he might have even hesitated. After all, he did not have a lot of knowledge on medical techniques. However, with the existence of the Deer God, as an avatar of the Heavenly Dao, it was not an exaggeration to force the ghosts of the Yama Hall to stay behind. Just like this, after half a day of turning, Chen Fan crossed tens of thousands of kilometers and finally arrived at the Yuan Sect. The name of this world''s number one sect was well-known, and its size was similar. The core region was about a thousand miles or so, and it even covered several mountain ranges. Overlapping palaces and pavilions were distributed in different places. Through the hazy fog, some were extremely gorgeous, some were ancient and humble, and from this, one could tell that the Yuan Sect were indeed as strong as the clouds. Those were definitely the residences of the elders and reverends. According to their personality and interests, they all had their own places for cultivation. He turned his head to the side to listen, and from time to time there would be sounds of a voice. It was a perfect scene of a deity, and was even more imposing than Hua Ding Sect. As for Hu Mu being unsightly to look at after arriving at the Qing Xuan Sect, there was simply no way to compare the two great Sect. No wonder Hu Mu had such a natural sense of superiority. Even if a pig were to be placed in a place like this, after a long time, they would probably look down on their own brethren when they saw them outside. Chen Fan said to himself. The difference between Qing Xuan Sect and that of Yuan Sect was simply too great, to the point that it could be compared by multiple times. One must know that this was a transcendent power, yet their Yuan Sect had the ability to completely swallow up their Qing Xuan Sect. It could be seen just how much their Yuan Sect had inflated. The other middle ranking sects were thousands of kilometers in radius, and all of them had been living off of their Yuan Sect. Just a single sentence from them would be able to decide the life and death of many Sect. In front of the huge mountain gate, the words Yuan Sect were engraved on the ground. It was written with bold and powerful strokes with silver hooks. It was obvious that it was left behind by a Legend rank expert. When ordinary people took a glance at it, they would involuntarily sink into it, and feel the limitless dao halos contained within, thus becoming even more reverent of the Yuan Sect. On the other hand, Chen Fan was indifferent to it. This must be the genius doctor of the ancient times that Nan Gong Sect Leader spoke of, I have troubled Holy Maiden to come over, please follow me. Before long, a Expert From Yuan Sect appeared and led the way for Chen Fan and Yue Yang. Trash! They were all a bunch of trash! Inside a hall of Spiritual Peak, the third elder was currently in a rage. With a heavy slap of his palm, the wooden table was completely turned into powder. Normally, they were all self-confident about what kind of genius doctor they were, so why couldn''t even cure Mu Er''s illness?! Divine Doctor Wang and Daoist Five Poisons were also considering their own countermeasures. They should be able to come up with an answer very soon. Some people tried to persuade him, but they didn''t dare to raise their voices for fear of angering the former. Bullshit Godly Doctor, a living person that was perfectly fine, suddenly became like this. They had immersed themselves in medicine for hundreds of years, but they couldn''t even find a clue. The Third Elder was furious, but he also hated himself for not being proficient in medicine. He thought of Hu Mu lying on the bed and wailing in pain, and how this was his biggest weakness. Since the return of Qing Xuan Sect, Hu Mu had gathered a large group of his fellow sect brothers, preparing to return and challenge their young generation, and to teach Chen Fan a lesson. The Third Elder naturally knew about this, but he didn''t ask about it. He was using this opportunity to beat up the Qing Xuan Sect, Sect Leader and the others also had the same thought. Who would have thought that Hu Mu would actually have such strange symptoms? His entire body was covered with a layer of black Qi. This caused the Third Elder to be extremely anxious. Not only did he personally take action, the Sect Leader and other seniors also joined hands to investigate. There were so many strong practitioners standing at the peak of the Fixed World, but they couldn''t feel anything amiss with Hu Mu at all. In the end, they could only come to a conclusion that he had contracted some kind of strange disease, not some problem with his cultivation. In a state of panic, who would bother to look for trouble with Qing Xuan Sect? The Third Elder had invited several famous medical masters, but none of them were able to do anything. The two people who were treating Hu Mu today were both renowned genius doctors, renowned among the top five doctors in the entire North Domain. However, there was nothing that could be done in the face of Hu Mu''s illness. Daoist Master Wu Du had once saved the Jadefeather Wonderland''s Sect Leader and Godly Doctor Wang had even saved the life of Hai Peng''s entire clan. Logically speaking, he shouldn''t have treated Mu Er like this. After calming down, the more the Third Elder thought about it, the more he felt that something was amiss. Those strong warriors of higher cultivation realms could even heal them, so how could the two genius doctors not be able to deal with them when they came to their own Grandson? Third Elder, the Master Gu is here. Another disciple came to report. Master Gu? Where did he come from? The Third Elder had never heard of this title before. It was the one recommended by Sect Leader Nan Gong. It was said that he was the one who had cured the weird illness that had afflicted Holy Maiden. In fact, the Third Elder had sent someone to investigate the matter. Bring him in. When he thought back to how Nangong Xuan''s revered appearance, along with the brilliant plans that Nangong Yi had searched for twenty years for, had actually been cured by this Master Gu in the end, and the Third Elder had regained his hope. Not long after he sat down, Chen Fan was informed that he needed to hurry up and save Hu Mu. Of course, Nangong Xuan did not follow him, and it was not convenient for outsiders to see that direct disciple''s appearance. C70 Cough cough, what kind of condition is Hu Mu in now? Chen Fan asked, the one leading the way was a protector, he was definitely one of the third clan elder''s trusted aides. Right now, he looked completely like an old man. His body was intentionally hunched, and his face was full of wrinkles. Even his hair had intentionally turned pale, which only served to better match his true age. All of the meridians in his body were sealed by an invisible force, and no matter what he did, it was unable to resolve it. Even after Sect Leader made his move, Hu Mu''s body remained as unmoving as ever. The protector shook his head. As one of the best in the younger generation, Hu Mu''s talent had always been recognized by everyone in the sect. Even if it wasn''t the most outstanding, it would still be able to rank in the top twenty or so. In the end, because of the mysterious disease that sealed his meridians, even if he was lucky enough to survive, his cultivation realm would be greatly affected, and even his dao path might be interrupted. Do you have no means of redress? Even though Chen Fan asked this, he didn''t think that there was anything that the Yuan Sect could do that would be enough to restrain the grudge of the heavens and the devil''s body. Ten thousand years ago, this was a unique existence that was on par with the great powers of Sage Realm. Unless there were still experts of that level overseeing the Yuan Sect, then Hu Mu was destined to die. The Third Elder had managed to find five thousand grams of crystals in the treasury, barely stabilizing the deterioration of Hu Mu''s condition. The protector replied. Wu, looks like you still understand, grudges against you, and only with the crystal essence, this kind of extremely cold and sinister Spiritual Being, it would not cause any harm to your body, in order to continue Hu Mu''s life. Chen Fan''s heart was moved, this was truly out of his expectations, within all the treasures that he could think of, only the crystal essence was effective. However, there were more than ten million Spiritual Being in the Yuan Sect Treasury, and the Third Elder had actually managed to find them. This was definitely not a coincidence, as there was still an expert guiding them from behind their backs. Along the way, he sensed at least a dozen or so auras scouting around, and all of them were hidden in secret. It could be seen how much this Third Elder valued Hu Mu. While they were speaking, they had already arrived at the Spiritual Peak from before. There were three elders waiting inside. Third Elder, Master Gu has arrived. The Protector replied and carefully left the room. Looking around, Chen Fan realized that this Third Elder, Qian De and the others with the same Qing Xuan Sect had the same Qi undulations, even though it was from the Senior Expert s of Hua Ding Sect. It seemed that the realms of the elders of these transcendent powers were about the same. It was just that there were some differences in the number of people, which was why there existed such a large sect that could swallow up Qing Xuan Sect and oppress the current world. Master Gu, right? Let me introduce you, this is the Five Poisons Sect and Divine Doctor Wang. The Third Elder was the first to speak. You two, it is really inconvenient to expose Mu Er''s situation, I hope that you can communicate with Master Gu and formulate a plan. Even though he felt resentment towards the Five Poisons Elder and Doctor Wang, he could only count on them. Even the Third Elder had to maintain a sufficient amount of respect for them. I have already heard about Hu Mu''s condition from the Protector before, so there''s no need for these two to elaborate any further. Chen Fan said with complete confidence. No one knew the consequences of his grudges and grudges better than him. Third Elder, it''s really not because this old man has any objections to you, don''t randomly seek medical treatment for your illness, you are just taking Hu Mu''s life and death as a joke. Hearing Chen Fan''s words, Divine Doctor Wang''s expression instantly became uglier. This was simply insulting his most prized method of healing. Hmph, where did this country bumpkin come from? He actually dares to put on an act in front of me. Five Poisons Elder was even more direct, with a cold snort, he was extremely dissatisfied with Chen Fan''s attitude. Master Gu, this old man also knows that you have treated Holy Maiden''s Hua Ding Sect, but Mu Er''s condition is special, it is not convenient for her to interact with outsiders, it''s better to first hear what the two genius doctors have to say. The Third Elder also frowned, it was not that Nangong Yi did not greet him, it was because this Master Gu had a strange temperament that he could not afford to offend. But to immediately deny the other two genius doctors, that was a bit too much. If not for the promise he made with absolute confidence, and the fact that this Master Gu was skilled in medicine, the Third Elder would have gone all out to attack him. Hu Mu did not actually have a strange disease, but a simple cultivation problem, it''s just that you all have not found the source of the disease yet. Once again, Chen Fan''s shocking words made the two genius doctors angry beyond belief. It was not bad to deny them all, even the Third Elder and the Yuan Sect experts did not manage to escape. Third Elder, I think you should have heard that this old man truly has no way to work with such a person, and it would easily affect Hu Mu''s treatment. I think you''re just a scammer, get the hell out of here, I don''t have time to talk to you. Divine Doctor Wang and the Five Poisons Elder were so angry that their entire bodies were trembling, pointing at Chen Fan''s nose. If they had the same cultivation level, they would have immediately launched an attack on him. What exactly do you mean? The Third Elder''s face turned gloomy. This was a matter of great importance, he could not tolerate Sect Leader and the rest being humiliated. In any case, the two of you are mediocre doctors, so the one who should scram is you two. Stop spouting nonsense and delay this old man''s diagnosis. Chen Fan blurted out, and immediately taunted his with his sharp words. This way, the anger he received became even greater, and his trip here was not in vain. A total of three Senior Expert s were releasing surging rage, and they did not sense it at all, and were completely used by Chen Fan. Master Gu, please behave yourself. Because of Hu Mu, the Third Elder maintained maximum tolerance and ordered everyone to leave. If there is nothing else, I will leave first. Furthermore, I will have to trouble you to tell Nangong Yi not to be affected by others and to be complacent. This last sentence was clearly said for Chen Fan to hear. Godly Doctor Wang and the Five Poisons Elder started laughing loudly. After all, they had been famous for many years. Just by clearing the meridians with the crystal marrow, one had to have a strong enough vitality to be able to pass through the sealed meridians. Furthermore, he had to maintain a high temperature environment at all times in order to stabilize his meridians and dispel the cold energy within Hu Mu''s body. The slowest could not be more than four hours, if not the Great Firmament Deity would not be able to save him. Hm? The Third Elder flapped his sleeves in anger. Just as he wanted to have the disciples guarding outside take Chen Fan away, he heard the latter continuously speak as if the words made sense. Nonsense, I have never heard of someone using high temperature to treat a patient, it would only worsen Hu Mu''s condition. Have you ever seen anyone use Dao fire on a Ancient Tree before?! Five Poisons Elder immediately retorted, still thinking that Chen Fan was speaking nonsense. Not necessarily. Back in the ancient times, after some Sage Realm experts studied the structure of the Human Clan cultivators, they proposed to use the dao flame to refine it to strengthen their physique. Divine Doctor Wang muttered to himself for a bit, but then used Chen Fan''s words to recall a few things. So it turns out that Master Gu also knows about the Crystal Marrow. The Third Elder wasn''t proficient in the way of medicine, but he could faintly discern from the words "life force" and other words that Chen Fan''s words were reasonable. I don''t think you have ever heard of anything like this. Being able to use the dao of fire as a method of treatment, who told you to walk the wrong path and deal with poisonous creatures all day long. Chen Fan did not reply to the Third Elder in a hurry. He still needed to squeeze more benefits from the Five Poisons Elder. It was even more beautiful to use poison as an attack against poison. Little did they know that this was just an unorthodox method. It could not be used as a main direction to treat illnesses. In the end, the only thing he could do was to use poison to support the creation of a humanoid medicine jar. As for what use would he have, he might as well just swallow the Crane Head Red in batches. Although he had never eaten pork before, Chen Fan had seen pigs run before. In his long time of cultivation, he had more or less interacted with some of the stronger doctors. Even if he didn''t understand it in depth, from what he had heard, it was enough to scare the old guy. You! You! Nonsense! Daoist Five Poison''s lungs were about to explode from anger, but he couldn''t think of any words to refute. On the other hand, the eyes of the Godly Doctor Wang who was standing next to her flickered with an indecipherable light. As both of them were famous veterans of the way of medicine, he was naturally able to hear that what Chen Fan had revealed was the truth, and he couldn''t help but pay more attention to the latter. Like I said, this old man needs to see Hu Mu''s true situation before I can make a decision. Chen Fan had a serious face, almost as though he was reprimanding the Third Elder. How can you conceal your illness from a doctor, not to mention someone like you, you aren''t even allowed close proximity to me, are you really terminating the disease? The third elder was also stunned. No one had dared to speak to him like this ever since he had been promoted to elder. Just as he was about to become angry subconsciously, he suddenly remembered Nangong Yi''s instructions. Master Gu had a strange temper. If he wanted to save his, the more he scolded, the more it meant that he was serious. If he did not say anything, it would be too cold for him. That''s right, Master Gu''s performance was due to a genius doctor wanting to save the patient. Thinking this, Third Elder had a smile on his face. The reason Master Gu taught me a lesson is mainly because I was too anxious due to Mu Er''s illness. I hope that you can forgive me. The Third Elder''s quick change in attitude left the two Godly Doctors secretly speechless. As expected of a true elder, his confidence was not something ordinary people could compare with. Whoosh! Chen Fan let out a long breath in his heart, feeling extremely good. This fellow had clearly pointed out the Dao and scolded the Third Elder right in front of him. Yet, this fellow still tried to persuade him with an amiable demeanor, not to mention the fact that his anger was continuously seeping into his dantian. It was beautiful to kill many birds with one stone. Divine doctors, please follow me. Before Hu Mu was rescued, he could not afford to offend a single one of them. No matter who it was, they would have their own brilliant plan. Soon, a huge screen was opened, and behind it was a huge bed. It was sparkling and translucent, and it was impossible to tell how beautiful it was. However, Hu Mu who was lying on top of it did not look well. He frowned, his face was pale white, and there were a lot of black Qi surrounding him. Faintly spreading out in all directions, it caused this large jade bed to look somewhat demonic. C71 Damn it, why is it that all the black gas has come out?! The color of his face immediately changed. He had only saved it in Hu Mu''s body earlier, and it had only been half a day. The two genius doctors quickly went up to check. They looked at each other and frowned. They had never seen this kind of illness before and still didn''t have a clue. This part of your Crystal Marrow has been contaminated, and there are still flaws within. The suppression of your meridians only appears on the surface, but the actual fact is that the mysterious energy has been corroding Hu Mu''s body. Under normal circumstances, with the assistance of the crystal marrow, even if their cultivation was any weaker, it would be impossible for their Human Clan to deteriorate to such an extent in just a few short days. This guy was talking nonsense again. Everyone knew that this piece of crystal essence in the Yuan Sect Treasury was personally taken from the Illusory Sea Area by the Sect Leader from two generations ago. The Crystal Marrow itself was sealed in the extreme cold realm, so it would be difficult for ordinary Rankers to reach it. But how could a dignified number one expert of the Yuan Sect possibly make a mistake, and call himself the strongest of the North Domain? Master Gu, you actually even know this? This old man has let you down! The Third Elder''s face lost all color once again when he heard this. He changed the way he looked at Chen Fan, changing his name to show his respect to you. He was actually right? The Divine Doctor, who had not spoken a single word, was also a little startled. No matter how he looked at it, it did not seem to be a normal level of knowledge that Chen Fan possessed. This piece of crystal essence had once been obstructed by a greater demon on the way to taking it back. Even though it had been killed by the Sect Leader, it had released the poison before it died. Third Elder coming truthfully was a secret of the Yuan Sect, and he did not want others to find out easily. After all, their Sect Leader had spent a lot of effort to get this Spiritual Being, but it was such a defective Spiritual Being. The invasion entered into the crystal marrow, but we are still unable to expel it. However, it has already been bound by us, and there are no signs of it spreading throughout the crystal marrow. Hearing that, the Five Poisons Elder did not have anything else to say, with a sinister look, he continued to size up Chen Fan.''s words made him so embarrassed that he could not let go of his old face. Master Gu, according to your opinion, how should I treat Mu Er''s illness? The Third Elder asked. Out of his own heart, he did not want Hu Mu to be roasted under such a high temperature. Withdrawing the Crystal Marrow, finding a Purple Gold Ginseng that was more than five thousand years old as the main ingredient and preparing these herbs to come over, it would be able to save Hu Mu''s life. As he said that, Chen Fan casually carved a prescription into a Jade Chip. Of course, these were all the spirit plants that he currently lacked, so he could take advantage of this opportunity to get them. Oh, right, there are still eight million Spiritual Stone, don''t forget about this. Looking at the list, the Third Elder was stunned. Why is it that the strange sickness that even the Sect Leader and many other divine doctors could not cure, was so easy in the hands of this Master Gu? It sounded no different from ordinary cold weather, causing him to hesitate even more. Stop spouting nonsense, delay Hu Mu''s condition, you cannot bear the responsibility! Godly Doctor Wang almost roared out loud. Originally, when he saw Chen Fan''s actions, he had dispelled his doubts. But no one expected to see the so called medicinal formula recorded in the Jade Chip s. It was simply nonsense, there was no connection at all between all the spirit plants. He couldn''t even stir the most basic medicinal properties of the pill, let alone any connection with the treatment. Even if he randomly picked a three year old child, he would still be able to do better than this. Third Elder, please forgive my bluntness, but even if this old man and I are incapable, you cannot hand over the life of Grandson to a scammer like me. He didn''t know much about the traditional way of medicine. If one were to talk about poisons, that was his specialty. You have been dealing with all sorts of highly poisonous creatures all year round. Although your body formed an antibody against them, two years ago you were injured by a strange blood-red flower. In fact, the remaining poison had already accumulated in the depths of his meridians. If it were to enter his bone marrow, he would lose his life after nine months. Ten thousand years ago, when standing on the divine altar, all he could see was flattery. Chen Fan had never been angry at all, nor did he dare to be presumptuous in front of himself. After waking up today, he had truly experienced the world once more. He discovered that there were so many hot-tempered fellows, so he naturally had to lend them a hand. Bastard, this old man''s health is very good, I don''t need you to curse me, I''m really f * cking unlucky! If not for being wary of the Third Elder, Spiritual Master Wu Du would have directly ripped Chen Fan apart. Even if an ordinary person were to be called such and the date of their death was stated explicitly, it would still be extremely unpleasant, much less a Divine Doctor whose name would shake the world. No matter where he went, any elder of a transcendent power would treat him as a guest and treat him with great care. They would not dare to even utter a single word. How could he be like this old man in front of him? He wanted others to beat him to death. You only took a glance at Hu Mu, but didn''t treat his meridians. You don''t even have the basic attitude of a doctor towards a patient, you really don''t know who gave you the guts to be a big tail wolf here. It was Godly Doctor Wang''s turn to question them, deliberately raising his voice very high. Just this imposing manner alone was enough to frighten many people. Whether or not one was skilled in medicine had nothing to do with one''s attitude. On the contrary, if one neglected even the most basic of desires, what face would one have to be called a genius doctor? Chen Fan was calm and composed, his answers flowing like the flow, occasionally even rebelling against a general, and the Third Elder beside him was observing his actions. Indeed, the ancient legendary physician Hua Tuo set this rule as the root of all diseases and obtained the recognition of countless experts of the medical way. And then, the Medical Saint Zhang Zhongjing continued. Even today, ordinary mortal doctors knew a little about it, but Chen Fan seized this opportunity to ridicule this genius doctor. As expected, the old man was trembling without the strength to refute. His face had already turned red. To him, this was an extraordinary shame and humiliation. Alright, let me ask you again. Those with the surname ''Dao'' need five thousand years of Purple Golden Ginseng, but these types of spiritual plants have been extinct for quite a long time, so there is no place for you to search. He was not clear about the situation inside the Void Tomb, but he had walked through the North Domain for so many years, and had always been begging for the Purple Gold Ginseng but had never been able to obtain it. How could he allow this brat to materialize all of a sudden with a single sentence? What do you say? Since he dared to say such words, naturally, he had his reasons. Chen Fan faintly smiled, pointed at the eastern side of the Yuan Sect, and softly said. If I''m not wrong, there should be a Purple Gold Ginseng in the Void Tomb over there. Heh, you''re spouting nonsense again. How could you possibly know what happened a few thousand years ago? Divine Doctor Wang could not bear to see such pretense. C72 The Third Elder had bragged that he was omniscient, but the truth was that the bottle was shaking wildly. Now that the Third Elder was beside him, he could directly stab through him. The Master Gu was right, the Void Tomb should have a mature Purple-Gold Ginseng. Unexpectedly, the Third Elder personally opened his mouth and slapped Divine Doctor Wang''s face, causing a loud and clear sound of crackling sounds to ring out. The Void Tomb s of the Yuan Sect were also a secret, and many direct disciples were not sure if their own clan''s Sect existed or not in this mystical place. It was inconceivable that a mysterious outsider would be able to explain the reason and even find out about the spirit plants within the Void Tomb. No matter where you accidentally found out about the existence of the Purple Gold Ginseng, how did you prove that this thing could really cure Hu Mu''s strange illness? Yes, the two genius doctors were still unrelenting in their desire to strike back. Disregarding the fact that they were skilled in the art of medicine, their obsession alone was worthy of praise. As I said before, Hu Mu isn''t suffering from any strange ailment, it''s just a matter of cultivation. As long as you use enough vitality to reopen your meridians, the instant the channels pass through your body, all of your symptoms will naturally disappear. If not for the fact that he wanted to anger the two old fellows, Chen Fan wouldn''t even bother to talk nonsense with them. He didn''t even notice that Hu Mu was on the verge of death. If he really died, wouldn''t he be completely destroyed after painstakingly plotting for so long? The two of you, this old man knows that our peers are enemies, but this matter concerns Mu Er''s life and death. The Third Elder could not help but shout out, and stood by Chen Fan''s side. After all, the latter had truly given a reason, but the Five Poisons Sect and Divine Doctor Wang had always been smashing their rice bowls. The martial artists of the martial arts world were all deceitful. The frogs at the bottom of the well were aware of how vast the sea was. Chen Fan unrestrainedly replied back with a look of gratitude, as the energy gathered by the Heavenly Heart Formula almost made him unable to hold back his laughter. Humph! The two grand genius doctors were rendered speechless by this argument. Why did he have to use the Purple-Gold Ginseng as the main ingredient? The Third Elder asked with a troubled expression. If it was just a simple matter of life and death, this old man would be able to find other Spiritual Being in the treasury. In any case, that was the life of the Grandson, so it was up to him to decide. Chen Fan would naturally not tell him that Cao Rui had placed a Purple Gold Ginseng seed into the Yuan Sect Void Tomb on a whim. It was just for fun. He wanted to see if this so called Void Tomb had any special effects on the growth of Spiritual Being. To Chen Fan and Cao Rui at that time, a Purple Gold Ginseng seed was like a Spiritual Stone that was picked up casually. Afterwards, when they were busy cultivating, no one remembered about the Amethyst Ginseng, and as time passed, they forgot about it. They did not care, because Yuan Sect were treated as a treasure, and after counting the time for so many years, even in their dreams, they wanted to obtain this windfall. Only the inscriptions within the Purple Gold Ginseng could be compatible with Hu Mu''s physique. Furthermore, the life force accumulated over thousands of years was the best choice among all the Spiritual Being s. In any case, Divine Doctor Wang and Spiritual Master Wu Du had already stopped firing, Chen Fan just casually said a few words that the Third Elder could not understand, it was enough to scare him. So it''s like that... The old man was lost in thought and didn''t speak for a long time. To be able to make this expert lose his composure like this showed that there was indeed a problem. Third Elder, what are you waiting for? Without obtaining the Purple Gold Ginseng''s medicinal power for more than six hours, I am powerless, and even the Great Firmament Deity cannot save Hu Mu. Chen Fan started to worry, it was not like his Purple Gold Ginseng had already been taken away by the other elders. The main purpose of this trip to the Yuan Sect was to obtain this object. If the Third Elder were to use the other motley Spiritual Being s as compensation, he would not be at ease. I''m afraid that even if the real immortals came, they wouldn''t be able to get this Purple-Gold Ginseng. The Third Elder sighed. Grandfather, you have to save me! I don''t want to die! Hu Mu, who was lying on the Crystal Marrow and struggling desperately, seemed to have heard something. The genius doctor beside him opened a prescription that could save him, endured the pain, and begged in a low voice. Third Elder, what is the secret? Seeing how even the old fellow Hu Mu was unmoved by his words, Chen Fan became even more curious. The Void Tomb has already been sealed for many years, and has not been opened for about three thousand years. We have thought of all sorts of methods, but none of them are able to move. The third clan elder''s voice was low, if only the purple gold ginseng could save a life, it would be the death of Hu Mu. Even though he was a high and mighty Yuan Sect Elder, it was impossible for him to find a Purple-Gold Ginseng in such a short period of time. Where are the Spiritual Being? They were thousands of years old! Chen Fan became anxious. This was even more excessive than letting others kidnap him. This was nothing, from the Formation Pattern outside, there was still a Spirit Convergence Array operating. Furthermore, the Void Tomb was right above the spirit vein, and it had maintained an extremely pure density. Even so, the Third Elder still had a dejected look on his face. The two genius doctors on the other hand, remained calm and collected, as if they wanted to watch the show. They really wanted to see what methods this so-called Master Gu had. Hearing that, Chen Fan was also startled, after pondering for a moment, he pretended to be concerned about Hu Mu and asked. Take me to see it. I''ve also learned some techniques to break through bindings, so I don''t know if they can be of use. Let''s go, the two genius doctors also went over to take a look. The Third Elder was quick to respond, but in reality, he did not hold any hope. He even made the preparations to accept Hu Mu''s impending death. As long as that scene didn''t occur in front of his eyes, he really wouldn''t be able to listen to his most beloved Grandson. Not long after, the three of them arrived in front of the Void Tomb. There were still a few Protectors waiting there, the trusted aides of the Third Elder. Speaking of which, this Void Tomb had not opened its mouth for thousands of years. No matter how strong the attack was, it could not blast open the hole. And during this period of time, the Yuan Sect had constantly expanded, thus forming such a strange scene. The surroundings were all luxurious pavilions and halls, but unfortunately, in the central area of the Yuan Sect, a bare Spiritual Peak stood upright. Even though the surrounding spirit energy was extremely dense, as though it was going to materialize at any moment, there was nothing else in the entire Spiritual Peak, and there were no unnecessary decorations. There was only a simple door. Every month, there would be a fixed disciple that came to clean up the place. As for the ancestral tablets, of course it would be done in secret. Upon closer inspection, both the Five Poisons Sect and Divine Doctor Wang had faces full of curiosity, their eyes almost popping out of their sockets. This sort of place was not open to the public. Even cleaning disciples had to be specially selected, let alone outsiders like them. Chen Fan also caressed the stone door with his hand. The meaning in his eyes was hard to fathom, it was already hard to see anything from his era. After a long time of erosion, the stone door was covered with mottled marks. It was obvious that it had been here for quite some time. No matter how clean it was, it was unable to erase this mark. Hey hey hey, old man, did you figure out anything? Chen Fan asked in his mind. Please call me Deer God who knows everything. The old man even had a plan. Okay, Master Deer God, what is going on with this door? Facing the Heaven''s Path Avatar lowering its head was not a big deal to Chen Fan, as the situation was better than the other way around. Your memory doesn''t seem to be very good, I clearly saw something like this not long ago. Was this another method that Little Cao had left behind? However, Chen Fan immediately rejected his guess. The engravings on this stone door were completely different from the three disciples in his memory. No, no, I don''t even know his aura yet. This stone door has nothing to do with him. I am not talking about this, but the method he used to denote you, the Ranking Stone on the Hua Ding Sect, is extremely similar to this stone door. Deer God was a little disappointed that he had failed. Even when speaking to this point, Chen Fan still had a stupefied expression on his face. He even wanted to suspect if the latter was the real Supreme Wu Tian or not. Why did he become more and more foolish after falling into slumber for several thousand years? Wait! I seem to have some impression, don''t say anything, let me think first! After the Deer God''s repeated reminders, a light flashed past Chen Fan''s mind, as if something had surfaced. He was suddenly unsure if it was right or wrong, and it felt like his heart was being scratched. I say, could it be that you''ve been knocked unconscious from your sleep and haven''t fully awakened yet? Deer God could not wait any longer. After ridiculing Yue Yang, he blurted out those words, even forgetting his most prized second disciple, Yin Xin? Boom! After hearing this word, Chen Fan only felt that there was a clap of thunder above his head, and his head was buzzing. It was like mud that had been stuck in there for thousands of years was suddenly washed away by the mountain torrent. This feeling was simply too wonderful to describe. He had accepted a total of three disciples, of which Cao Rui was one of them. The eldest disciple had followed him for the longest period of time, and he was exceptionally sincere. But, in Chen Fan''s eyes, he had completely inherited his legacy, and only had his second disciple, Yin Xin. This Void Tomb should not have been sealed by him, but it was definitely his work. It should have been the power of the Spell Formation that was personally carved by him. The Deer God explained. His Master was clearly standing at the side, yet he couldn''t even recognize his own disciple''s formation. Once he went closer and examined it carefully, Chen Fan had a plan in mind. He would bring out a portion of his memories about this Void Tomb. It bothered the Yuan Sect for thousands of years, not because they did not understand it, but because there were many Grandmasters of arrays within them who could not understand the Formation Pattern s on the stone door. In reality, they still had to look at talented people. The truly brilliant Spell Formation had already surpassed the limits of its simple quality. Without Chen Fan''s activation, it was possible that even Yin Xin himself would not be able to open it. What the hell is this? As my master, I don''t even have any expression. Instead, I have to let my disciples continue to relieve me. C73 The more Chen Fan thought about it, the more unsightly it became. Ever since he returned to this world, he had always been under the care of Cao Rui''s'' Meng Yin ''. This time, Yin Xin''s Void Tomb lagoon appeared again, he even started to look forward to when his head disciple would be able to come and take a surprise. It''s very normal. After you ''died,'' the seniors and juniors would help you arrange for your funeral and pave the way for you in advance. Deer God said in a faint voice. He didn''t have a deep understanding towards the other two disciples, and only Cao Rui alone had a strange feeling from start to finish. Love and hate intertwined ¡­ Not only will this make it easier for you to rise up again, it will also help them fulfill their filial duty, allowing them to walk safely in the Underworld. If Cao Rui had not forcefully intercepted him, the Deer God would still be a complete heavenly law, high above, looking down on all living beings. Without the Longevity''s restriction, there was no need to be like this, worrying all day about how to recover his strength. But from another point of view, because of Cao Rui, Deer God truly had the chance to experience the mortal world and possess the emotions and consciousness of a normal Human Clan. It was no longer just the extremely cold and indifferent Heavenly Dao in the sky, which only possessed the instinct of chaos. Hey, who knows. Chen Fan laughed coldly straight away. It seemed like even Deer God didn''t know the secret between him and his disciples. Previously, when he had placed the Reincarnation Seal on Cao Rui and the others, it was certainly convenient for them to search for the original body and not lose track of the reason during the experience. After all, that person would not allow an immortal existence like him to appear in the race below him. Amongst them, Chen Fan was the most adventurous, and did not really enter the cycle of reincarnation. To endure the prying eyes of the Heavenly Dao for a whole eight thousand years, one must not reveal even the slightest bit of their aura. While maintaining the fake death state, one must also take into consideration the vitality of their body so as to not be seriously weakened. Even so, when he returned, he still suffered a heavy blow that was close to destruction. His cultivation was completely lost, and he had to start over from the beginning. If any of you have found anything, just speak freely. The Third Elder''s words pulled Chen Fan out of his deep thoughts. There should still be another half of the sentence, in any case, you guys could only watch, and couldn''t open it even after muttering for a long time. He once gathered all of the Senior Expert s in the sect and even brought out their sect''s most precious treasure. He did not hesitate to take the risk of destroying the Sect and precious land, and he did not even blast open the stone door. The higher ups of the Yuan Sect had already given up all hope, all that was left was to lay down a rule that disciples of the younger generation absolutely should not touch Void Tomb. Third Elder, this old man has more or less heard of the existence of Void Tomb as well. Divine Doctor Wang probed. Earlier, there were rumors that the spoke of Void Tomb s had accumulated an unimaginable amount of Spiritual Being s, which could be considered as life-saving food for Yuan Sect. However, with their level of power, they probably wouldn''t be able to use them within a thousand years. That''s right, ever since my Yuan Sect was established, from the first generation of Sect Leader, we had a tradition of sealing many Spiritual Being inside, and continued for nearly five thousand years. Hearing that, Chen Fan nodded his head, the time axis matched perfectly with his. When they were close to falling into slumber, the supreme powers currently active in the North Domain were only just beginning to shine, which was why there were those Ancient Saint s who did such a thing. It''s a pity that due to an unforeseen event three thousand years ago, the Void Tomb s were sealed off by the formation, and they were sealed away. Until now, we have not been able to see the light of day again. The Third Elder couldn''t help but sigh. This was a thorn in the hearts of all the higher ups of the Yuan Sect, and it had been a long time since they had removed it. According to him, if Yuan Sect could obtain a large amount of what it used to be, it would definitely become even more powerful now. This old man has lived for a hundred years, but has never seen such a profound Formation Pattern before. Divine Doctor Wang and Daoist Master Wu Du shook their heads. The Third Elder wasn''t expecting this nor was he disappointed; he had long since gotten used to it. What profound mystery of the Formation Pattern, it''s just an excuse. I think you''re just like a dog that has lived to an age and not even as obedient as the one I raised. Chen Fan would never let go of any opportunity to activate the Heavenly Heart Formula. Old fart, are you tired of living? The Five Poisons Cultivator could no longer hold it in, spiritual light surged in his hand, he wanted to kill Chen Fan with a slap. Under the cover of Nangong Yi''s mask, the latter did not reveal his cultivation, but gave a vague feeling to others. Otherwise, the Master Gu that was praised to the skies, would only be Qi Disciple level 7, which would inevitably increase the possibility of his identity being exposed. Master Wu Du, this is an important place of my Yuan Sect, all external forces are forbidden to appear, quickly stop! The Third Elder hastily raised his arm and used the same Infinity Flare to hold the former down. When it came to cultivation, if one did not use those poisonous substances, the Five Poisons Palace would naturally not be a match for this genuine elder. Master Gu, what you said just now was a bit too much. Godly Doctor Wang sang the same tune, and a sinister look flashed past his eyes. It''s not only us who can''t see the meaning behind the Formation Pattern, even the experts of all the generations of Yuan Sect have failed to crack it. When these words were spoken, the Third Elder and several other protectors'' expressions changed. This matter involving the Yuan Sect and Sect Leader s was not a joke. If he did not handle this well, even if he did not have this intention, Chen Fan would still be severely warned. This old man didn''t say that, that''s just your imagination. Chen Fan sneered again and again, this kind of written game can''t fool him, this is what it means to not know how big the world is, he retorted immediately, being bitten by a dog doesn''t mean that you have to bite back. Godly Doctor Wang, what do you say? The old man was once again choked by a sentence, and his entire body was still trembling, unable to hold back his fart. Divine Doctor Wang, this old man does not wish to hear such words a second time, if not, no matter who you are, please leave the area of my Yuan Sect. The Third Elder heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Chen Fan had taken revenge on him, otherwise, he would not even be able to accept these words. Master Gu, do you have any way? Even though he had already given up all hope, the Third Elder still asked him this question. In view of Chen Fan''s previous miracles, maybe even a thousandth of the luck would have landed on his head. If you allow me for half a quarter of an hour, I will definitely be able to give you an answer. Good! Unknowingly, the Third Elder had started to get excited. Chen Fan had yet to make any judgement, but for some reason, it caused his heart to be in turmoil. After a few thousand years, Chen Fan once again saw the words of his second disciple and inexplicably sighed in his heart. The two big words "Void Tomb" were carved at the top of the stone door. It was bold, powerful, and seemed to have a profound understanding of the art of calligraphy. At first glance, it looked normal, but if the Spiritual Consciousness were to keep an eye on it for a long time, it would realize the mysteriousness of it. Even after such a long time had passed, he was still able to unleash such might. Compared to the two words "Yuan Sect" outside of the mountain gate, he was much more brilliant. Tsk, if it wasn''t for my old man''s reminder, who knows if you would have learned the Five Poisons Daoist Master. On the other side, Chen Fan was still immersed in reminiscing about the past, so the Deer God unrestrainedly gave him a bucket of cold water. Feeling the aura that Yin Xin had written, it had a tyrannical feeling. The world that belonged solely to him, gradually spread out in front of Chen Fan, but most of all, there were scenes that made him familiar with it. Chen Fan seemed to have seen his own version of himself as he also stood at the peak of the Cultivation Realm. With billions of lives under his control, the life and death of hundreds of thousands of deities could only be imagined. Taking advantage of the existence of reason, he slowly sat down and forced out a few drops of sweat. His brows were furrowed even more tightly, and he had to try his best to pretend. In fact, he only needed a few breaths of time to completely open the sealed Void Tomb. But, for the sake of hiding his identity, he had to pretend to ponder over it. This way, it wouldn''t cause too much of a blow to the Third Elder and the others. It would also give him time to consider his next move. Looking at how he was pretending to be mysterious and devious, he obviously didn''t know anything, yet he still pretended to understand. It was truly shameful to be travelling together with such a person. Divine Doctor Wang and Daoist Master Five Poisons continued to mock him. As the saying goes, ''distance is like a mountain.'' They had reached the pinnacle of the way of medicine, but their conduct and character were still far off. Even if he knew some medical skills, he shouldn''t use it as a way to fool others. The moment it was seen through, it would be the time of your death. Just like that, they couldn''t bear to see others surpass them, and they all thought that in the end, Chen Fan would still be pierced through. This kind of pretense couldn''t last too long. However, because of a few words from the two of them, the trap that Yin had laid down thousands of years ago would not change. When Chen Fan extended his palm, forcing out the first Talisman, the stone door suddenly shook, and a faint light started to appear on the top of the door. What was going on? The Third Elder and Divine Doctor Wang were all stunned. They looked at the stone door with incomparable astonishment. This seemed even more unbelievable than the resurrection of the dead. But it had indeed just happened right in front of his eyes. Chen Fan gently caressed the stone door, and just like that, the stone door was separated by that layer of light. Even though it looked very dim, this was the first time the stone door had been moving strangely in the past few thousand years. The degree of vibration once again increased, and it was even worth recording into the history of the Sect. After pinching himself, the third elder felt a sharp pain. It was not an illusion. He could see with the naked eye that there was movement coming from the stone door. Fast! Go and call Sect Leader and the few clan elders! Hurry up! Even with the third elder''s mental fortitude, his speech was a bit slurred. He stammered his orders to the other Protectors who were also in a state of shock. How could this be ¡­ When he saw the scene before his eyes, he was astonished. However, he was still mumbling to himself despondently. He almost thought that his mouth had been opened. Almost everything that had been said was about to be realized, and it was also about Chen Fan''s negative miracles ¡ª It was indeed a name one could call it. C74 Very quickly, several elders and Sect Leader s within the Yuan Sect were all startled into coming over. After they saw the scene before their eyes, they too revealed astonished expressions. No one would have thought that after all these years, the genius doctor that they found to treat Hu Mu''s illness would be able to cause a change to the stone door. God bless my Yuan Sect! In the end, Sect Leader was a little more composed, he waved his hand and stopped the elders who were by the side asking about Chen Fan''s movements, they would first look at the situation before deciding anything. Soon after, a large group of protectors rushed over, and laid out a sealing line around the Void Tomb, preventing all disciples from getting close to look. After all, it involved the highest secret of the Yuan Sect, so they absolutely could not leak it out in the slightest. It was also to prevent accidents that could happen if the Void Tomb was suddenly opened. It was said that it was the number one sect of the current North Domain. In the end, the stone door of their clan had to be helped to activate by an outsider. Who knew what kind of situation the Void Tomb were currently in? While they were hiding the background of the first half of Yuan Sect, it was extremely likely that they were facing some sort of danger and had to be dealt with. At the same time, he instructed his disciples to go over to the stone door and find out about the origins and background of the so-called Master Gu. Just why did he get the stone door to respond? But that was all, when he saw the few old fellows approaching, Chen Fan immediately sat down cross legged and retrieved his palm, quietly entering into a meditative state. At first glance, it looked like Chen Fan was trying his best to decipher the patterns, but in reality, it was exhausting of their patience. If he were to easily open the stone door, it would definitely arouse their suspicions. As time passed, his expression became more and more solemn, and his frown was growing tighter and tighter. Chen Fan''s disguise was becoming more and more similar, and in his eyes, even the Third Elder was feeling anxious for him. The trembling stone door appeared in front of Sect Leader and the rest, but the light gradually disappeared. After many hours without any new developments, the Void Tomb had once again recovered its mysteriousness and ancientness. Is there a mistake in the third elder''s judgement? Why do I feel like there isn''t any change in the stone door? The outermost layer of the Protectors could no longer sit still. They spent the entire afternoon staring at the stone door, but they did not see any spectacular scene of the flawless lotus flower. Protector Sun, you came late. I saw very clearly that there was indeed a faint glow emitting from it. I don''t know why it disappeared again. Cough cough, Master Gu, the stone door of the Void Tomb has been sealed for thousands of years, and after a period of time, it will easily affect the Spiritual Consciousness s. Sir, please take note of your safety, don''t get hurt by those Formation Pattern s. Sect Leader also tactfully reminded her. It seemed a little inappropriate to lead Top Rankers with half of his Sect to guard this place. Right, Third Elder, have you prepared the eight million Spiritual Stone that I told you about previously? Chen Fan suddenly asked, he did not care about Sect Leader, he had other plans, and had to look down on the old fellow. Ah? He had been waiting here ever since Mu Er came out. He hadn''t made any preparations in his haste. The Third Elder was stunned for a moment. If the Purple-Gold Meridian and other spirit plants were meant to provide life, then he would be even more puzzled by these several million Spiritual Stone. Master Gu, do you need to use it to break this stone door? Sect Leader asked again. No, no, no, it is only my reward for treating Hu Mu. Your stone door is much more precious than Hu Mu''s, you have to increase the price. Hearing this, the third elder''s face unconsciously twitched. Although this was the truth, as a grandfather, it still sounded a bit awkward. The worst guess he could come up with was what kind of Spirit Gathering Formation did these Spiritual Stone set up to keep Hu Mu''s life, and then he would be told the truth. Sect Leader:... No need to be so shocked, this old man wouldn''t make a move even once in a hundred years. Today, I have especially made an exception in your Yuan Sect because of Hu Mu. Chen Fan stroked his beard. The third elder nodded his head slightly. His words were true, but they also sounded much more pleasing to the ears. 23 million Spiritual Stone, we have to make do with the lucky numbers, and we have to give it to me first before we can start to activate it, what do you think? After pondering for a moment, Chen Fan called out a price. What kind of lucky number is this... The group of elders thought to themselves, but no one said anything, waiting for Sect Leader''s decision. I''m not saying that this old fellow is crazy about money, right? Just to open the stone door, he actually raised the reward to twenty million Spiritual Stone? If he really could succeed, this price would be worth it, but looking at his current situation, he felt like he was just putting on an act. Could he have used some trick or other to trick the stone door, creating the illusion in the first place? The many protectors discussed spiritedly. Each of them had their own way of speaking, as a large Yuan Sect meant that the power of the middle levels was much stronger than the Qing Xuan Sect. Just the number of protectors that had appeared was at least a hundred. Furthermore, they have to first pay the rewards. This is clearly an attempt to scam our Yuan Sect one by one, don''t tell me that he disappeared the moment the Spiritual Stone was handed over. That''s right, that''s right, I have to check if he has any Void Shattering Symbols on his body first. If he were to bring so many Spiritual Stone with him, what would happen? The few elders were just spectating at the side. Sect Leader was still hesitating, no one had any intention of stopping the Protectors, it was more like they were using their words to ask the question. Even in the face of such rich and imposing Yuan Sect, twenty million Spiritual Stone were no small amount. Although they could be taken out, no one wanted to give them to Chen Fan for no reason. Up till now, he had yet to reveal any of his true abilities. He was only showing off on the surface; where did he get the confidence to ask for a reward? Third Elder, what views does this Master Gu have towards Hu Mu''s condition? Has he already helped him to alleviate his symptoms? Sect Leader secretly asked with the sound transmission of the Spiritual Consciousness. He did not come up with a cure and only proposed a solution. Moreover, he said that he had to use the Purple Golden Ginseng in order to succeed. In fact, the Third Elder was more anxious than anyone else, it was just that he could not reveal it, he was more clear of the Sect Leader''s concerns. Previously, Chen Fan had told him that he needed to let Hu Mu accept a huge amount of life force within six hours at the most. Master Gu, twenty million Spiritual Stone s is really a bit expensive, can you pay a portion of the deposit first and then the rest can be raised by our sect? Sect Leader cupped his hands together, as long as this guy could cause the stone door to change further, he could immediately clap. C75 But after four hours, there were still no signs of changes to the situation. Even the initial light of the Formation Pattern had disappeared, and the nearby protectors could tell that something was wrong. He had to think deeply. It was true that the Yuan Sect did not lack these Spiritual Stone, but they were not from a strong wind. This old man knows what you are hesitating for, I just don''t believe that I can open the Void Tomb, Chen Fan sighed, looking helpless. However, I can''t break the rules that I have followed for so many years. If I want to break the Formation Pattern, I must first get the reward, otherwise there is no need to talk about it. It hadn''t been easy for Chen Fan to grab the opportunity to demand an exorbitant price, so of course he wouldn''t let this chance go easily. He had always been on guard against this kind of extraordinary strength, especially against the Yuan Sect which was akin to that of a tiger or wolf sect. If he were to really open the Void Tomb in a daze, then something might happen to him. When the time came, they would have gotten what they wanted. They could think of thousands of reasons to decline, and then they would completely lose the initiative. Since they still had an advantage now, they had to get it in advance. Of course, if you guys are truly worried, then you can have the Third Elder help to guarantee that this mere two thousand or so Spiritual Stone, this old man thinks that he would still come out. Seeing that these old fellows were still hesitating, Chen Fan also cursed repeatedly, and had no choice but to help them make a move. Chen Fa suddenly started to understand why the Cultivation Realm had declined all of a sudden. If this were to continue, he would follow in the footsteps of the Qing Xuan Sect. Sect Leader, I think what Master Gu said is right. Honestly speaking, these hidden experts all have their own weird fetishes, so they should understand. The hope to open the Void Tomb was clearly right in front of him, and Hu Mu''s life could be decided in an instant. If it were any other grandfather, they would all be willing to stand up for their Grandson. At most, he would just put up a bet. Third Elder took out all of his savings, and then used his face to borrow some money. He was indeed able to provide this kind of reward. If anything really happens to you, this old one is willing to bear all the consequences, including the loss of the Spiritual Stone. As soon as he had finished speaking, all the elders and protectors turned their gazes to the Third Elder. They were somewhat surprised by his decisiveness. Alright, then I''ll have to trouble you first. Sect Leader''s eyes flashed with a strange light, he did not know that Hu Mu was already at the brink of death, he immediately waved his hand, and a protector immediately brought over the Storage Bag. No one would care about these Spiritual Stone now. They were just mumbling about how they didn''t have that many Spiritual Stone s, so they took them out immediately after. When it was handed over to Chen Fan, the Third Elder''s dao heart, which had originally not stirred for hundreds of years, actually started to jump up and down non-stop in just a few short hours. His entire fortune was bet on the Storage Bag, his palm surging with brilliance, as long as Chen Fan made any movements to escape, he would immediately receive his storm-like attack. Oh, not bad. Looks like you guys are quite sincere. After happily counting for a bit, Chen Fan stood up and continued to touch the stone door''s body with his palm. The same kind of light from before appeared again. And it quickly enveloped the entire stone door as a mysterious aura spread out from it, surpassing the limit of anyone''s knowledge. It was something that had never been detected in the Sect before. All of the hair guards present remained silent, watching in a daze just like before. All of their doubts were dispelled at this moment. After fooling these old fellows for more than four hours, it was time to add on some bait for them. Go and bring the water over, I want the most ordinary underground water, do not be contaminated with any Spiritual Energy''s aura. Chen Fan''s heart moved, this kind of opportunity was not common, so he decided to make the big deal out of it. Hurry, hurry, hurry and find water! The Third Elder quickly said. Many disciples, upon receiving the order, woke up from their state of shock and turned around to retrieve their water. Sect Leader immediately raised his palm, as cold air condensed in the air. Crash! * A pillar of water appeared out of nowhere and floated to Chen Fan''s side. Are you trying to humiliate this old man? Chen Fan glared with his eyes wide opened, and shouted at Sect Leader. Who cared what kind of person he was, just a simple stomp of his feet could cause an earthquake in the entire North Domain. This sort of water-attribute energy can even be produced by those Protectors. If it''s that simple, then what do I need to do?! Master Gu asked us to calm down, we were careless. Everyone, including the few Great Elders, sucked in a breath. In their memories, Sect Leader had always been a strong person, and there was no one who could force him to bow his head. However, in order to successfully activate the Void Tomb, the Sect Leader had no choice but to lower himself. After all, even several generations of people had failed to accomplish this task. Time passed bit by bit but the water had not arrived yet. However, Chen Fan was not in a hurry as he continued to sit down leisurely. What''s going on? Could it be that I can''t even find a ladle of water within my Yuan Sect? Sect Leader was embarrassed, a few of the protectors took action on their own, and went to check the situation. In less than half a quarter of an hour, someone immediately and eagerly ran over. With great effort, they carried a large wooden bucket. It was swaying, and as expected, it did not touch the Spiritual Energy at all. This was the core of the gathering of the entire North Domain and the concentration of spirit energy inside it could be said to be the purest of all the transcendent powers. Who knew how much effort he had spent to get this bucket of cold water? Through the development of space, he was teleported thousands of miles away, then forcefully dug a hole in the well. Only after scooping some up did he realize that a Spiritual Energy had already infiltrated deep into the ground. In the end, he found a farmer''s house. After throwing down a few Spiritual Stone s, he quickly went through the void and returned to the Void Tomb''s side. Coincidentally, Sect Leader said that he was right. It was not easy to search for proper underground water from the Yuan Sect, as it was completely surrounded by spirit veins. Countless gazes were focused on Chen Fan, afraid that something might go wrong, and was even more curious as to what kind of tricks he would use this thing to create. Gulp, gulp, in front of all the higher-ups of Yuan Sect, Chen Fan gulped down the cold water that he had gone through great pains to get, as if he was washing his mouth. Could it be that Master Gu was just thirsty? Master was truly an otherworldly expert. He could even replenish water for his body. This was a true return to one''s original nature. Hehe, so we have already misunderstood the Master Gu. An expert like him should have long ago left the mortal world, even if he was thirsty, it would just be for a moment, as he won''t be tainted with the scent of the mortal world. Surprised and surprised, everyone couldn''t help but raise their thumbs. They didn''t know what was going on, but they had heard that the life habits of some hidden powerhouses were quite special. Naturally, he also treated Chen Fan as that kind of person, and it fit the identity Nangong Yi had created for him. Puff! And then, facing the countless gazes that were fixated on him, Chen Fan directly sprayed out. A stream of unparalleled mouthwash landed on the stone door and its head shook a few times. Every part of its body was covered. Seeing that, the crowd went into an uproar again and many of the Protectors exploded into an uproar. I knew this old guy was cheating. This is too much. We''ve worked so hard to protect him for so long, how can we allow him to be so impudent? Just pay attention to this, this old fogey might have to prepare to run, he might be sent by some other Sect platoon to embarrass us. They were still praising Chen Fan a moment ago, but the latter''s actions could be seen as a provocation towards his Yuan Sect. After spitting out that saliva, nearly a hundred Yuan Sect Protectors activated the Formation Pattern beside them at the fastest speed possible. In an instant, their spirits shot up, vaguely targeting Chen Fan. How dare you! Evil being, the Void Tomb left behind by our ancestors were treated like this, your sin is unforgivable! A few aged voices loudly shouted, and they were all full of energy. They looked like they were going crazy and their hairs were trembling, just like an old lion. Master Gu, what are you doing!? In the next life, the most sacred place in my garden won''t have the slightest bit of filth! Sect Leader reprimanded in a low voice. If he dared to act arrogantly again, he would immediately take action to suppress them. Chen Fan did not move, and continued to circulate the Heavenly Heart Method, and did not let go of any opportunity to gather his anger. So many elders and protectors were angered at the same time, causing his dantian to fill up several times in an instant, and even his meridians expanded greatly. Just ten breaths of time was enough to match several months of hard cultivation. Each of them felt as good as the other. In short, this trip was not in vain. If not for the feelings of these Expert From Yuan Sect s, Chen Fan was worried that they would not be able to hold back and attack him and destroy him. "What are you panicking for? Without my Heavenly Jade Jade Dew that has been brewing for a long time ¡­" The hundred Protectors couldn''t hold it in any longer. Just as they wanted to kill this fellow, their eyes were caught by the stone door. Rumble rumble rumble! After a series of dull sounds, a large amount of light scattered out, along with an unprecedented mystical pressure. The stone door gradually opened. Everyone held their breath, and did not even dare to breathe loudly. They stared straight at the sealed stone door as the sun rose once more, and the surrounding Spell Formation began to move as well. Sect Leader and a few elders stood at the very front in unison, as they brought out their Spiritual Consciousness s. They saw that Chen Fan had directly pushed open the stone door with his arms. Since the latter was fine, there shouldn''t be too much of a problem. After all, the Spiritual Being inside were all rare treasures, and there wasn''t anything evil inside either. Go and see what your ancestors have in store. I''ll leave it for you, so just don''t forget that purple gold ginseng of mine. Chen Fan clapped his hands, he was not so foolish as to be the first to run in. C76 Master Gu, regarding this matter, I hope that you can stay in the Sect for a few more days. Sect Leader''s face was filled with smiles, as if he was about to turn into a daisy. This was a rare joyous occasion since he had taken control of the Yuan Sect, and could even be considered one of his first three achievements against the Yuan Sect. Forget it, taking money and getting rid of disasters are my rules, I will never change them. For the past two days, Hu Mu has been settled under the Third Elder''s Spiritual Peak. Now that he only had a fake face, Chen Fan did not dare to stay for long. If his identity was revealed, then perhaps Yuan Tong and the other Top Rankers would divide him into eight parts to carefully study him. On the other hand, he wanted to say something. He just kept saying words of hospitality and thanks, but he did not do anything practical, even if it was good to promise to pick a Spiritual Being from the upper cave. Martial Brothers, this old man shall first investigate. Mu Er really can''t wait any longer. After waiting for a little while, the Third Elder was the first to rush over, disappearing into the Void Tomb s in a flash, how could Sect Leader and the rest allow him to enter alone. Third Elder, wait for this old man. Be careful of the danger in the cavern! A group of old fellows entered in a line. After so many years, no one could say how many more Spiritual Being existed inside, but if the Third Elder collected one or two of them by himself, then it would be a huge loss. The rest of the protectors consciously stood guard outside the cave, they did not have the qualifications to witness this scene, Chen Fan had to stop himself from moving many times. If he were to enter at this time, the Third Elder and the others probably would not stop him. However, he did not want to see so many Spiritual Being s, which were completely unrelated to him. Even if one were to use their toes to think, one would know that their current state of shock was equivalent to adding on thousands of years of history to make up for the deficit in their Yuan Sect. Whoever it is, help this old man lead the way. Go to the Spiritual Peak of the Third Elder and see if you can still make it in time to save Hu Mu''s life. Are these old guys trying to live inside the house or something? Chen Fan cursed in his heart as he started to walk away. This was a challenge to his tolerance. Tsk tsk, once I recover my strength in the future, I will definitely revisit this Void Tomb. the Deer God said from within the Zifu Space. Naturally, he sounded a little regretful as well. With his incomparably sharp senses, he was able to more or less investigate the Spiritual Being inside from a distance. Each one of them was a rare treasure, one that many experts would fight over if placed in the outside world. Chen Fan had just arrived at the Spiritual Peak of the Third Elder, and the latter was already there. He was also holding a Storage Bag in his hand. Master Gu, Sect Leader wishes for me to convey your gratitude. In addition to the reward that you have set, there are also medicinal herbs worth two million Spiritual Stone s here. The Third Elder respectfully gave both his hands to Chen Fan. One day, he would let Chen Fan know that the person in front of him was the person who had tortured him to that state in Grandson. Perhaps, an elder position would appear in the Yuan Sect on that day, and it would even cause a great stir. Yes, to move Hu Mu into a high-temperature environment, he had to be at least three hundred degrees. Chen Fan muttered to himself. He had helped Director Yuan out with such a big problem to get such a small amount of thanks. He was really stingy. Alright, alright, this old man will do it right away. The third elder left quickly and set up a jade platform outside of his own great hall. The surroundings were all burning hot fire rocks, used to maintain the high temperature. Mu Er, you have to endure for now and it will be done soon. Master Gu''s medical skills are superb, he will definitely be able to extend your life. As he comforted Hu Mu, the Third Elder personally moved him to the side of the jade platform. Although there were no blazing flames that burned directly, even the Third Elder was drenched in sweat from the heat wave that assaulted his face. Given Chen Fan''s strange temper, he did not dare make any other requests. This old man is old, my body is not comparable to that of youngsters, could it be that you want me to suffer the same pain as Hu Mu? Chen Fan pointed to the side of the jade platform where Hu Mu was lying, and indicated that he no longer had anywhere to go, nor would he be able to approach that wave of heat. Aiyo, this old man was in a hurry and actually neglected this point, I hope Master Gu can forgive me. The Third Elder wiped his sweat and apologized profusely. Ah!" I''m in pain, Grandfather! Mu Er, grind your teeth and head over there. The Third Elder carefully comforted Chen Fan as he turned his body, revealing his head to Chen Fan. Master Gu, is this enough? No matter what, he was an elder of the Yuan Sect, with a high position and authority. He could decide the fate of many living beings with a single thought, but he could only tremble in fear in front of Chen Fan. The latter was secretly delighted, and immediately felt humiliated by the fact that he had appeared. He was only a Senior Expert from a normal sect, and was not even worthy to be compared with him. "Step back and bring the Purple Golden Ginseng over. This old man will begin his treatment." Chen Fan acknowledged, while the Third Elder stood respectfully by the side, like an ordinary attendant. With a five thousand year old purple-gold ginseng in his hand, just like the rumors had it, the older the ginseng, the more they would transform into Human Clan and it could even become spirited. It was only about a foot in size, and its entire body flowed with a faint golden light. It was extremely gorgeous, and with just a glance, it could make people unable to shift their gaze away. They could not help but want it for themselves. For example, this old monster who disguised himself as a so-called Grandmaster, who was already over ten thousand years old but was normally using his young body to reveal himself, had already come up with a plan. To Chen Fan, there was a special feeling. When this thing was still a seed, he would have buried the Void Tomb with his own hands. After so many years, when he appeared again, it was as if his world had changed. He was no longer the Supreme Wu Tian, and had temporarily left the divine altar. Weng! * Waves of flame shot out from his palm and completely wrapped the Purple Gold Ginseng. The refinement of the Purple Gold Ginseng was different from the other Spiritual Being, it had to be surrounded by special flames. Only with this ability would the medicinal strength be greatly reduced if it was drawn out. This required a person to have extremely deep attainments in the fire attribute. One would not be able to move it unless he had immersed himself in it for hundreds of years. Of course, this was not a problem for Chen Fan. In a slightly exaggerated manner, even if he did not have the dao flame, he could still obtain the complete life force if he ate it alive. It was just a question of whether the Third Elder could allow Chen Fan to swallow the pellet after he digested the medicinal power of the pellet. The fire continued to spread. It looked like it was drifting in the air, but it still hadn''t left the body of the Purple Gold Ginseng. As it continued to move, it actually felt like a beauty was dancing. The temperature in the air was rising rapidly, but it was still controlled by Chen Fan to a reasonable extent. Under his full strength, the Purple Golden Ginseng also underwent the same transformation. It slowly emitted a golden light, which was extremely dazzling. The fluctuations of vitality were even more intense. As for the area within a three hundred meter radius around him, any casual breath would contain pure energy, as he impatiently channeled it into his body. Chen Fan felt a burst of refreshment. If there wasn''t that old fellow watching by the side, he would have wanted to ignore Hu Mu first and absorb the essence happily. The Third Elder subconsciously held his breath, and even activated the formation that shrouded the entire area ahead of time. A hazy Light Shield appeared, and he couldn''t risk his life with his own Grandson, nor would he allow others to take advantage of him. The golden light did not last for long, many strange patterns appeared on the surface of the Purple Gold Ginseng, all of which were mentioned by Chen Fan earlier, and made the Third Elder even more confident. This kind of special Heaven and Earth Spiritual Being had an enormous history in itself. In the process of maturing, which happened easily over a thousand years ago, it would usually have Dao patterns bestowed upon it by the gods. The reason why many experts had to spend so much effort in searching for treasures of heaven and earth was not only to obtain medicinal effects, but also to obtain Dao patterns. If he tried to comprehend it, he might be able to obtain the opportunity to break through and bring out the ultimate value of a divine object. After the golden light from the Purple Gold Ginseng faded, Chen Fan increased his firepower. His body showed signs of melting, and in a short while, he became a ball of juice. With the last crackling sound, the flames disappeared, leaving only the sticky Purple-Gold Ginseng, which was the essence of the medicine. Master was indeed powerful, to be able to dissolve the medicinal strength of the Purple Gold Ginseng so easily. The third elder could not help but praise the former when he saw that he had successfully turned five thousand year old medicinal plants into a night state in the short span of a quarter of an hour. The growth cycle of this seed was extremely long. From the seed at the beginning to the bud, it had to be prepared for three thousand years. It had only matured recently. Chen Fan said in a faint voice, these words were said for himself, he had chosen to revive this year, and did not think that he would be able to catch up to this good fortune. It seems like your Grandson is fated to meet the Purple-Gold Ginseng at its peak. Otherwise, even the old me would not be able to do anything. While they were talking, Hu Mu''s moaning also became much softer, but it frightened the Third Elder quite a bit. He still had the strength to yell just now. If he had to stop the sound, then it would not be a joke. The newborn baby would even cry. Mu Er! If he were to persevere any longer, he would be able to refine the medicinal properties already. In that case, he can ¡­ The Third Elder couldn''t wait to use his own life to replace Hu Mu, and that would be fine even if it could lessen his pain. Three, look, this old man needs to use a silver needle to pierce through his acupoints, this process is very difficult to bear, I suggest you find something for him to hold onto, or else he might bite off his tongue. Chen Fan''s gentle words not only confirmed his identity as a doctor, but also made him feel wronged. In actuality, there was no need to put Hu Mu in such a high temperature environment. Chen Fan merely wanted to torture him a little. C77 The Third Elder obediently took out a special spirit fruit, it was only the size of a walnut, but the key point was that all the Vital Energy were inside the fruit, and they could even help Hu Mu relieve the pain. Seeing that, Chen Fan wanted to slap himself again. Why did he have to wake up? Shaking his head, he continued to swallow the juice right in front of the third elder. With a ''gulp'', his Adam''s apple started rolling, and then he looked down to his lower abdomen. This... The third elder was stunned, momentarily at a loss for words. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but no words came out. Although Chen Fan had dissolved the Void Tomb''s pattern with a single mouthful of water, could it be that he would have to use the same method to treat Grandson, but Hu Mu didn''t have any restrictions on his body like the one on the stone door? This old man''s body has been through the good fortune of the heaven and earth, and his medical skills in this lifetime have all depended on it. Chen Fan took the initiative to explain, only by transforming the Purple Gold Ginseng into Hu Mu''s body, would he be able to absorb it. It turned out that the master was consuming his energy. This old man is extremely grateful! Seeing that the old fellow did not seem to understand and was nodding his head with a foggy look, still wanting to thank him again and again, Deer God was laughing so hard that he could not stand up anymore in the Zifu Space. I was forced to do this because you, the Grandson, have been tainted with too much debauchery and wealth. Your body is too weak, and your foundation is not stable. Hearing this, the Third Elder secretly felt fear, luckily he did not let the two genius doctors take action, otherwise his own Grandson would definitely be tormented to death. Master, please forgive me. Once Mu Er recovers, this old man will definitely discipline her and not let you down. She will be his parent in the future! Eh? Chen Fan was happy when he heard it. He finally understood that his former enemy had become a good son. He opened his eyes wide and was about to stop. The old fellow was Hu Mu''s grandfather in the first place, but he said that Chen Fan was able to be his parents and even took advantage of his position. Aiya, look at this old man''s mouth. It was because of Mu Er''s anxiousness that he didn''t even think before speaking. The third elder slapped himself lightly and said that it was more appropriate to touch his face. Realizing that his words were wrong, he quickly corrected himself. This old man has asked for your help. Can you let him recognize you as his foster grandfather? In the future, you will have to repay this favor of saving your life even if you have to go through thick and thin. Speaking of which, the Third Elder also had his own plans. Seeing Chen Fan''s brilliant medical skills, and his outstanding attainments in the Dao of arrays, even his entire Yuan Sect had never surpassed Chen Fan''s. They must definitely be on good terms with such an expert, and must let Hu Mu take the initiative to curry favor with them. It would be beneficial for them both to climb this big tree as much as possible. Hmph hmph, if we were to calculate it based on seniority and age, it wouldn''t even be enough for an old thing like you to call me grandpa. Chen Fan thought to himself. Since he had come to this world again, he would have to adapt to the identity of a young person. From this perspective, he was still very happy. To be honest, the reason this old man had specially come to save Hu Mu, aside from recommending it to Sect Leader Nan Gong, was because I saw that he looked somewhat similar to my little Grandson ¡­ Even Chen Fan was proud of his cleverness, this temporary excuse was simply irrefutable. He wanted to borrow this opportunity to acknowledge this foster grandson of his. Really? That''s great, it seems Master has some fate with me, Grandson. The Third Elder was not very happy. Originally, he was still a little confused. Why did Chen Fan take the initiative to reject the Sect Leader''s invitation and stay with him? Puff! When he spat out the juice again, it was naturally no longer the original Purple Gold Ginseng. Although the Third Elder sensed that the Vital Energy was a little strange, he did not ask any further. Until now, the various methods that Chen Fan had displayed were extremely strange, and had already exceeded his knowledge. As long as he could save Hu Mu, he would not care about it anymore. It would be useless to ask too many questions, since he did not understand it anyway. He silently sent it into Hu Mu''s body. Seeing this brat''s miserable appearance, Chen Fan felt a burst of satisfaction in his heart. Recalling his arrogant attitude on Pingquan Peak, it really was a cycle of karma. The Heavenly Heart Formula was activated secretly, both of his hands were at Hu Mu''s temples, sensing his body was still wreaking havoc, the corners of Chen Fan''s mouth curled up slightly. This kind of natural resentment was not something to be trifled with. Unless one had Nangong Xuan''s body as a restriction, ordinary people would not be able to withstand it. At the most, they would die in pain in a week''s time. After all, he was not chosen by the heavens, so how could his mortal body have the qualifications to receive the power of an innate master? As wisps of mist seeped out from Chen Fan''s palm, he retracted all of the grievances. However, he was more meticulous than before, and did not refine everything in one go. He was the spy he personally placed inside Hong Mu''s body. Now that he was summoned back, it only took him ten breaths of time. He had already succeeded. This was the perfect opportunity to take a look at their true abilities through their Yuan Sect. As long as Hu Mu was not proficient enough, this would be his greatest trump card. Grandfather... Hu Mu shouted weakly. He had already regained consciousness, but he was still lacking in strength. Mu Er, how are you feeling? The third clan elder held down Hu Mu and was about to reveal his Spiritual Consciousness to check his body condition. Grandfather, I''m much better now, but there''s still something raging in my innards. I can''t say where, but it''s very uncomfortable. Hu Mu raised his arms, signalling that he was better than before, it was much better than when he was about to die. Master Gu, why? His flesh and blood were secondary, and he could not afford to lose his internal organs. Swallowing this Pill will not cause any accidents this week. After seven days, this old man will make a move again and completely solve your cultivation problem. Chen Fan activated his vitality in his dantian, condensing a ball of light the size of a pigeon''s egg and handed it over to Hu Mu. His illness has been delayed for too long. This old man is also very ashamed. Just this once, I can''t recover and have to withstand the high temperature again. He had to listen to this brat call him a goddam grandpa. Sure enough, after the vitality and energy were absorbed, Hu Mu''s complexion seemed to have improved. He struggled to stand up on his own, and even the fluctuations in his Qi recovered its calmness. Master Gu is too modest, for you to be able to do such a thing, it is already something that this old man admires. Saying that, the Third Elder relaxed and looked at Hu Mu. C78 The conversation between his grandfather and Chen Fan just now, although the latter had been burnt quite a bit, he had heard the gist of it and was about to kneel down. Junior Hu Mu, thanks Master Gu for saving my life. Hehe, your body is more important. Get up quickly. The smile on Chen Fan''s face became like a daisy, looking extremely amiable and amiable. In the future, you can no longer be as carefree as you were before. Young people''s bodies should also be restrained, and having a strong sense of wealth and alcohol is not a bad thing at all. In order to hear more about grandfather and have this brat be willing to call him that, Chen Fan was willing to throw caution to the wind. He had never given this kind of heartfelt consolation to his disciples before. Master Gu doesn''t need to worry. I will definitely take care of Mu Er. It seems like after walking on the line of life and death this time, he also ¡­ Third Elder had an apologetic smile on his face, but unexpectedly, Chen Fan''s expression changed. You still have the face to say that? This grandfather of his was also incompetent and had completely failed to fulfill his duty as an elder! Hu Mu shouldn''t have suffered so much, but it''s all because of your insistence on finding those inconsequential quack doctors that delayed the best treatment! The Third Elder and Hu Mu listened attentively from the side, not daring to refute a single word. Their heads were lowered as if they were children who had done something wrong and were being lectured by their parents. In just a few words, Chen Fan had completely displayed his acting skills. He was just an old man who hated himself for not being able to do anything, but had also protected his juniors with all his might. As he spoke, he lowered his voice, barely managing to squeeze out a sorrowful expression. It was as real as it could be. Sigh, unfortunately, this old man''s Grandson is also severely ill, but he was disturbed by the quack doctor and lost his life long ago. Because of this, this old man has decided to immerse himself in the way of medicine for the rest of his life. Chen Fan perfectly outlined a fake story, it did not matter whether it was true love or not, as long as someone believed it. Master, you truly know how to save the world, and you even have the ambition to save the world. This really makes me sigh with emotion. Although I have never seen your Grandson before, I still feel sorrowful for his untimely death. Otherwise, there would have been another genius doctor in this world. Despite being scolded, the Third Elder''s face was full of pain, but inside, he was extremely excited. If you don''t mind, you can just treat Mu Er as your Grandson and have him do his best to be filial and raise the heavens for you. Even if this old man''s medical skills are any better, it''s impossible for me to save Xuan''er''s life. Chen Fan looked like he was still immersed in pain, unable to extricate himself. Seeing that, Hu Mu who was at the side immediately shouted out. Grandpa! What did you call me? Chen Fan raised his head and was stunned. He nearly let out a pfft sound, but luckily, he bit on the tip of his tongue in time. From now on, I am your Grandson, let me take care of your life! Hu Mu was quite tactful and continued his journey. On the other hand, he did want to pour out a few tears, but it was very rare for Chen Fan to barely suppress his laughter, as his trembling hands touched the top of Hu Mu''s head. Good Grandson, good Grandson! The Third Elder, who was at the side, looked at this scene with a pleased expression. He felt inexplicable emotions in his heart. He thought that the affairs of the world were unpredictable. It was about time for him to change his mind. The Master Gu is a famous medical expert, Mu Er, you should be more formal. Hurry up and kowtow a few times for him, this old man can be your witness. "Chen Fan waved his hand, showing no interest in flattery. That''s right, that''s right. Grandfather, you don''t have to decline. This is what Grandson should do, you can''t lose etiquette. Hu Mu had just heard the Void Tomb being activated as mentioned by the Third Elder and it was actually related to this Master Gu in front of him. He could not help but be greatly shocked in his heart, and he faintly realized that this was his own chance. Coincidentally, this face also brought him such convenience. If he could get the Master Gu''s favor, his future journey would be smooth sailing. It had to be known that medical experts of this level were extremely rare, no matter where they were placed. Their status was even a step higher than that of Third Elder, and the case of the Godly Doctor Wang and the Five Poisons Daoist was an example. Although there were elders and experts everywhere, there were still a few from the older generation that participated in every Sect, but medical experts could be counted on one hand. Bang! Bang! Bang! Although his body was still in pain, Hu Mu still hit him hard a few times. Chen Fan did not stop him and laughed as he nodded his head, feeling satisfied. This old man is sometimes truly envious of you youngsters, and has a lot of time to spare. Chen Fan faintly sighed. Not everyone had this kind of experience and could get the chance to start over again. It was usually because he was young and arrogant, but in his later years, it was useless to regret. This is all thanks to you giving out orders for Mu Er. Otherwise, it would have been really difficult for him to survive this calamity. The Third Elder was overjoyed. Today was a happy occasion. If Mu Er has any intentions, this old man can teach you some things related to the medical field. Although it is shallow, it is enough for you to use it to strengthen your body. Chen Fan drew a big cake, it was just a promise, there was no need for him to take responsibility. Really, Grandpa? Grandson is willing! Hu Mu was wild with joy, to the point of not daring to believe his own ears. After this unfathomable disaster, he had an unprecedented awareness of the wondrous uses of the medical way. If he could become such an expert himself, he definitely wouldn''t have to suffer so much. Master Gu, you are so kind and benevolent, this old man doesn''t know what to say anymore. In the future, as long as it''s your business, Mu Er and I will help you out even if we have to go through thick and thin. Looking at this, the Third Clan Elder rubbed his hands together with all his might, to the point of wanting to kneel down and kowtow to Chen Fan. It''s nothing, since it''s this old man''s Grandson, of course I have to act like this, it shouldn''t be ¡­ Chen Fan suddenly stopped. Cough cough, that''s all for today. I''m still old after all, and the energy I''ve expended is somewhat short. Sigh. Initially, he wanted to give more pointers to this Grandson, but his dantian felt a little hot. After giving some instructions, he stood up and left. Master Gu, I have prepared a special pavilion for you, I will send you there to rest. When he thought about how Chen Fan had exhausted so much vitality just for Hu Mu, and how he even offered to teach him the way of medicine, and how he was unable to hold on even with such ease, the Third Elder could not help but feel guilty. No need, no need, find someone to guide me. Stay here and watch over this old man''s Grandson, don''t let anything go wrong. Before leaving, Chen Fan was still yearning for this good Grandson, and it made the Third Elder and Hu Mu even more excited. It was obvious that the Third Elder was very interested in Chen Fan''s residence as well and had purposely placed him next to his own cultivation hall. The latter was naturally unwilling. He had to refine the Purple-Gold Ginseng inside his Dantian immediately. If he went too close and this old man discovered him, it would be a big joke. Because of this, Chen Fan requested that he be allocated to an ordinary courtyard, and it was right next to the entrance of this Spiritual Peak, as far away from the Third Elder as possible. At the same time, it was also famous for being able to conveniently visit the interior of the Yuan Sect for sightseeing. Phew, today was too exciting. Sitting down, Chen Fan calmed himself down. In this state, he could not rashly ingest the purple gold body, it was very easy for something to happen if he was dizzy. Brat, you tricked them too much, you better be careful not to suffer any retribution in the future. Deer God said. He had already been laughing inside the Zifu Space for the entire day. This Purple-Gold Ginseng should be able to help me break through to Qi Disciple level 9. Foundation Establishment is just around the corner. Chen Fan did not have time to receive the attack as his dantian seemed to be about to explode, surging wave after wave of energy. In other words, he had a special method to suppress it. He did this in front of the Third Elder. If it was any other Mortal Realm cultivator, they would have already been buried alive. No way, the Purple Gold Ginseng contains thousands of years of medicinal power, even Nascent Infant Stage Expert can take this opportunity to raise one''s cultivation. Deer God was a little surprised, he knew that Chen Fan''s body was special, but it was not so abnormal. had worked hard for thousands of years, but in the end, you were only able to break through two levels? Refining the spiritual energy is secondary, I will store most of it until I reach the Foundation Establishment stage. Chen Fan said, even his explanation to the Third Elder clearly stated that the vast majority of the Purple Gold Ginseng''s vitality was consumed on the reconstruction of the meridians. If a medicinal herb of this level only had this little function, it would be a waste of its age, which was several thousand years. After all, with his ten thousand years of experience, his cultivation would never place any importance on the eyes of others. From the very first day he stepped onto the road of cultivation, he had already listed the requirements of the past Supreme Wu Tian. Foundation Establishment was much more important than Qi Cultivation. Since it was such a godly object, of course he had to wait until the right time to display its best value. Do you think I should tell them the truth before I leave the Yuan Sect? Chen Fan thought coldly. If the Third Elder and Hu Mu knew the truth, coupled with the fury of Sect Leader and the others, the Heavenly Heart Formula would probably explode. Just from today''s harvest outside the Void Tomb, Chen Fan''s fighting strength had increased by 70 to 80%. If he detonated this ticking time bomb, he could at least double the amount. Then you may not be able to leave the Yuan Sect anymore, or you may not be able to return to the Qing Xuan Sect in its entirety. Deer God replied with certainty. Don''t look at how Sect Leader and the Third Elder were so subservient to each other. They all had good looks on their faces, but that was because Chen Fan still possessed a trump card that they either feared or coveted. All these old fellows were great characters whose cultivation was deep and unfathomable, capable of shaking the entire North Domain with a stomp of their feet. They were people who were far beyond what the current Chen Fan could handle. One of them humiliated Xu Zhong, and then came Hu Mu''s mess. This was not just a simple act of acknowledging a thief as his father. One could only imagine how enraged the three Elders were. C79 Hey, this must be another piece of good fortune. Although he agreed with what Deer God said, and the reality was right in front of him, Chen Fan was still moved. Under the condition that he did not reveal his identity, perhaps he could appropriately reveal some truth-- He absolutely could not involve the Qing Xuan Sect. Now that he had thought about it, he felt much more at ease. He silently circulated the Eternal Creation Art and pointed at the vast amount of vitality in his dantian. Although the Heavenly Heart Formula and the Wanhua Sacred Arts had the ability to devour, Chen Fan discovered that the biggest difference between the two cultivation techniques was the order of quality. No matter how great the anger or fear from the outside was, the Heavenly Heart Method would be able to receive it all. In comparison, the Myriad Manifestation Saint Technique was much worse. Furthermore, he still needed Chen Fan''s consciousness to control it, and frequently guided it, in order to refine the incoming external force and gradually transform it into his own cultivation. Crash! * He didn''t know why, but he could hear the sound of water splashing around. It could be seen how majestic the energy of the Purple Gold Ginseng was. Looking inside his body with the Spiritual Consciousness, what Chen Fan saw was truly a craggy water body. Immediately, he corroded it bit by bit with the Wanhua Divine Arts, fusing it into the meridians in his entire body. As it continuously circulated, it imprinted its own unique aura until it returned to its dantian. Only then did it complete the refining process. Following after that ray of purple light was incited by the myriad of divine arts, Chen Fan''s body also revealed that kind of divine light, and very quickly was enveloped by it. This was not the end. When the flow of life gradually sped up, there were even bursts of fog coming from the top of his head. It gave him a vague sense of beauty. From afar, he looked more like an unmoving mountain Buddha as he sat cross-legged with a calm expression. As long as he didn''t speak, he was considered a true expert within the endless dense mist. He focused all of his attention into it and carelessly injected a huge amount of life force into every meridian. He still had plenty of life force left in his dantian, so there was no need to worry so quickly. His whole body felt warm and comfortable, as if he was bathing in the afternoon sun. This was the reaction of a normal body, as long as one had sufficient life force as a foundation, not only would the cultivation be smooth sailing, the Longevity would also experience a huge improvement. Other than that, Chen Fan did not channel all of his energy back into his body. A portion of it would be specially injected into his flesh and bones, until it entered the depths of his bone marrow. Now that he thought about it, it seemed like he had suffered some losses, and was not really injured, but he had wasted all the medicinal power in his body for nothing. But Chen Fan knew very well the advantages and disadvantages of this. After each wisp of energy entered his body, as long as he did not seek death, he would not disappear for no reason. No matter what method he used, he would still be able to display his full potential. It was just that the thoroughness of the squeeze was related to the skills and methods of the Cultivator, which varied from person to person. I, too, came to take a look. How can such a grand occasion lack the participation of the Heavenly Dao? The Deer God could not hold it in and also showed his head. His actions were more like a robbery to Chen Fan, forcefully plundering, and he only needed to hook a finger within the Zifu Space to be able to intercept a large amount of the medicinal power. The explosion was similar to a good ending. Originally, it had reached the level of a flood season, but after the Deer God branch flow split, it returned to its normal state. After all, he had some Heavenly Energy s that were easy to get close to. If he showed a little goodwill, he would be able to gain a lot from it. Even with thousands of years of growth, no one could hope for the medicinal properties to give birth to intelligence, much less for one to know that they had jumped into a bottomless pit. After the smiling Deer God waved his hand, the strength of the Spiritual Consciousness increased rapidly. Naturally, the Spiritual Energy had nothing to do with him. Don''t look at how Deer God is a swindler all day. The level he is at is far higher than Chen Fan. Even if the entire Purple Gold Ginseng were to be instilled into it, it would still not be possible for him to break through. Tsk tsk tsk, you making me feel especially ceremonious every time I cultivate like this, as though I have already returned to the state of being a Supreme Wu Tian and have to be prepared to save the world at all times. Chen Fan ridiculed, but he did not mind a piece of the cake given to him by the Deer God, as the two of them were grasshoppers on the same rope. This was still his most recent discovery. With the addition of that old fellow, there was probably nothing else in the entire continent that could match up to him. Even if it was just a simple cultivation session, the Heavenly Dao would still appear. Who would even have the right to utter a single word in response to that? The two of them continued to absorb the medicine and improve themselves continuously. Both of them felt that they were in the same boat. They were once heaven shaking powers, but now, they were in such dire straits. Without caring about that useless thought anymore, Chen Fan continued to control the Wanhua Divine Arts and slowly and steadily pushed the medicinal power, forcing it into his flesh. Confinement at any place was not as reassuring as the rest of his body. When the Storage Bag was lost, the Spell Formation was also in danger of being broken through. Besides the purple light, there was also a faint white light flashing outside his body. It was the anger that was stored in the Heavenly Heart Formula. In comparison, Chen Fan was much more concerned about this technique. In the end, it was chosen by him 10,000 years ago. What he needed to do was to continuously cause trouble and anger more people. As long as he could guarantee that his life wouldn''t be taken away and then sit back and enjoy it. The mist surged and filled every inch of space, and the entire room was filled with the dense aura of Spiritual Energy. He was truly worthy of being a master. He entered a state of cultivation the moment he got off the bed. He did not intend to rest for even a moment. It wasn''t without reason that he could be called a master. He already had such superb methods up his sleeves, but he was still so hardworking. Outside the courtyard, the two disciples who were arranged by the Third Elder to take care of Chen Fan were discussing. Only after a whole six hours did Chen Fan finish refining the medicinal power, and this was only the result of the Deer God helping him, otherwise, it would have taken even longer. Sigh, being old isn''t good. So it turns out that this Purple-Gold Ginseng, even if it were ten thousand years old, could be completely consumed in just a few breaths of time. Chen Fan said self-deprecatingly, now that he thought of his original cultivation method, he really wanted to slap himself twice. It was simply too brutal. It was rare for him to be like that, carefully suppressing the medicinal strength of the pill before slowly circulating it around his entire body. After confirming that there was no danger, the medicinal strength flowed into his Dantian. Only a large portion of it remained, meticulously saving for later use. In the past, he had directly devoured these spiritual plants as if they were fruits. He had never cared about the effects of the medicine, much less whether his body could take it. Zhi Zun was famous for being able to interact with Ancient Saint. If only he had eaten less, even one bite would have been enough ¡­ Chen Fan could save a lot of energy now ¡­ For the next three days, Chen Fan did not leave the house. In any case, he had an entire week''s worth of free time and his Yuan Sect was right in front of him. The main point was that with his bountiful harvest this time, the rate at which his cultivation base rose was a bit too fast. He had to make more preparations to prevent his foundation from being unstable. The three elders had sent people over many times to invite him over for a banquet, so they naturally did not dare to disturb him. Hu. He had finally stabilized. Chen Fan took a long breath. It was only on the fourth day that he took the first step. He also had a whim. After returning to this world for so many days, he had yet to experience the true essence of the mortal world. It seemed like it was time for him to experience the essence of the earth. Hence, he decided to just walk out of the mountain gate and walk around the towns near the Yuan Sect. None of the trusted aides of the Third Elder dared to follow him, which made Chen Fan feel a lot more at ease. The Qingshan Town was a very ordinary, small, mundane place. Strictly speaking, it couldn''t be considered outside the Yuan Sect either. After all, this area of five thousand kilometers was under their jurisdiction. There were many other small towns like this, and most of them relied on the existence of Yuan Sect to supply resources to this colossus, as well as to provide endless support for its expenses. Normally, he would also be under the care of the Yuan Sect and would be very safe. He never had to worry about any Bandit s wreaking havoc. If the Bandit from any side dared to behave atrociously in Yuan Sect''s territory, especially in the core region of the headquarters, they would most likely think that their life was too long. Meat buns, meat buns that even dogs don''t care about. All kinds of stuffing are available. Everyone, quickly come and have a taste! Sour and sweet candied fruit, do not miss the passing of a million, not tasty free gift! Sky dragon meat, ground donkey meat, authentic crispy fire! It was a very normal street with all sorts of shops along the way, especially food. The hawkers were busy selling food. There were many people walking on the road. Perhaps it was because of the Yuan Sect, but there were also many small towns that only occupied a few dozen kilometers of land. Most of the people here were ordinary mortals, of course there were also cultivators, and there weren''t many of them. Normally, those Yuan Sect disciples would not come to this kind of place, they were mostly around the Qi Disciple stage. His eyes casually swept across his surroundings. To Chen Fan who was used to this kind of boring cultivation, this kind of bustling scene was really strange. He couldn''t even remember the last time he went shopping without any worries. In any case, this was more than the amount of time he had spent in deep sleep, plus a thousand years. Ever since he had embarked on the path of the Dao, he didn''t have the time to experience this so-called enjoyment. Now that he thought about it, it was hard to tell if he regretted it or not. In short, it was difficult to understand what it meant. They had only accepted a few disciples and wandered around with them. Naturally, they had to take on the task of refining their hearts in the mortal world. Who would go wandering the mortal world for no reason at all? Actually, it would be good to be a rich old man and live a simple life. Chen Fan said to himself. C80 I''m afraid you have the heart, but not the strength. Only those who had truly reached a certain level would understand the meaning behind his words. On the surface, it looked glorious and limitless, but in the shadows, it required thousands of times more effort. Not to mention the thrill of lingering on the line between life and death countless times, it was impossible to escape unscathed. Chen Fan was also experienced of this. A dignified Supreme Wu Tian, to him, was a luxury that even allowed him to live a peaceful life as a mortal. If it were to be known, perhaps no one would believe it. This was indeed the case. He had once planned his own breakthrough, and the future path of his three disciples would require him to be on guard against his enemies and enemies. It was very troublesome. If the Zifu Space of an ordinary person were to be stuffed inside his head, it would probably be sufficient to force him to explode. There weren''t any changes nowadays. Even after rushing around all day to raise his cultivation base, he still didn''t have much free time. It was just that the height of his standing was different and his stance was slightly different. Live a good life and plan for the days to come. The more meticulous the plan, the better it is. So that you won''t be disturbed by any accidents. Do whatever you can to enhance your own strength. The Deer God was rarely serious, and this was also the general outline of Chen Fan''s plans for him during this period of time. Shaking his head, he continued to walk forward, observing the peddlers on both sides of the road shouting with all their might. After walking for around half an hour or so, maybe because he saw so many delicious foods, Chen Fan felt that his stomach was empty. Just as he wanted to buy two brittle meat for a taste, he suddenly heard a cry for help. Help... Help! If anyone comes to save me, you hooligans, get lost! Looking towards the direction of the voice, it seemed to be coming from a remote alley. After Chen Fan used the Spiritual Consciousness to check, the scene that appeared in his mind made him pale in comparison. Heh heh, little lady, you''d better not resist and obediently obey me. That''s right, our Young Master Ma is the most famous Young Noble Fluttering. If you follow him, you definitely won''t lose out. Seven or eight young men gathered together. The leader of the group was dressed extravagantly, and the collar around his waist was exceptionally bright. It was obvious that he had some status in the Qingshan Town s. They surrounded a twenty year old girl. Young Master Ma was pinching her wrist with a wretched expression. Young Master Ma, if you really dare to come here today, even if I become a ghost, I won''t let you go! Yu Chan''s face was covered in tears. These harsh words actually made the young people beside him feel even more moved, and aroused her desire. Hahaha, in this Qingshan Town, the young master is the heavens. If I let you die, then you die. Young Master Ma laughed out loud. He did not even put them in his eyes, he exerted force with his hands and clenched them even tighter. After you follow the Young Master Ma, no one will dare to touch you in this Qingshan Town. It''s worth it. That''s right, the little beauty''s beautiful face couldn''t be spoiled by those beggar girls. At such a young age, you shouldn''t be so determined to live. We Young Master Ma have a way to make you happy, hehe! The rest of the young masters laughed sinisterly. These guys were originally from a large family, but they did not learn anything and spent all day with the Young Master Ma, showing off their might. You bastards, you damned bastards, you piece of shit! Yu Chan struggled even more. Her upbringing was not bad, she did not know how to use vulgarities, and only had a few words to go back and forth. She wanted to smash her head into the wall, but how could she have the strength of a Young Master Ma? Young Master Ma, we will keep watch for you right now. Don''t forget our brothers later, we are counting on them to drink the soup. This had always been a rule between them. When meeting a beautiful woman, the Young Master Ma would first have to deal with her, and then it would have to deal with a few of their younger brothers. In terms of Qingshan Town, no one has the guts to dare spoil the good fortune of my Young Master Ma! Just as expected, just as Young Master Ma said this, two people seemed to be walking past the alley. They had wanted to come in to take a look since they had noticed that something was amiss. But when they heard the voice of the Young Master Ma, they all shook their heads and sighed as they walked away, completely ignoring Yu Chan''s cries for help. You hoodlum with no humanity, even if I die I won''t let you succeed! Yu Chan bit her tongue tightly, but was forced apart by Young Master Ma amidst her screams. Her saliva mixed with tears and blood was extremely miserable. Shut up! If you keep shouting like that, I''ll throw you into the Jade Fragrance Restaurant when I''m done, and earn money for me to receive guests! Young Master Ma was getting impatient. What kind of status did he have, for all the girls in the Qingshan Town, although they had started to resist really hard, they would just barely be able to resist. After the incident, he threw out a few thousand Spiritual Stone. Everyone could talk about it, but today, he had never seen such an unyielding number one. Wu wu wu ¡­ Hearing the threat of the Young Master Ma, Yu Chan fell into complete despair. After sensing the change in Yu Chan, Young Master Ma was very satisfied and he started to move his hands up and down. Rest assured little beauty, this young master will not treat you unfairly. If I serve you well, there will definitely be benefits. Yu Chan closed her beautiful eyes, which should have been filled with spirit, leaving behind tears of humiliation. Presumptuous! Right at this moment, a loud shout came from afar, scaring Young Master Ma quite a bit. His body subconsciously quivered, and immediately after, a wave of anger rose up. "Who the hell is putting on an act and getting the hell out here for me? Are you tired of living?!" As soon as his voice fell, no one responded. It was just that the subordinates that helped him watch the wind suddenly fell, rolling on the ground while clutching their crotch. In the end ¡­ A sense of unease rose in Young Master Ma''s heart, but he still mustered the courage to speak out loud, and before he could finish, he was interrupted. A light flashed before his eyes and before Young Master Ma could react, he felt a sharp pain in his palm. When he looked over, he saw that there was already a stream of blood flowing down. Young Master Ma, are you alright? At this time, the few lackeys also came over and ran over to help Young Master Ma up. They didn''t choose to run away immediately. It seemed like they were quite loyal, but unfortunately, they had used their hearts in the wrong place. Bullying men and dominating women, bullying the weak, running amuck. I never thought that under the rule of Yuan Sect, there would still exist animals like you. Chen Fan slowly walked to the side of Yu Chan and protected her behind his back as he spoke in an extremely calm manner, trying to judge the crimes of Young Master Ma and the others. C81 What the hell do you think you are? You even want to teach me a lesson? The Young Master Ma was furious beyond compare. Just now, Chen Fan''s shout had scared him quite a bit, and he had almost lost his man''s symbol. He wished he could tear the former to shreds on the spot to vent his anger. Old thing, you''re already so old, and you still want to meddle in other people''s business? You old fogey, it seems like you don''t even have many years left to live. You definitely have to report to the Underworld, right? He must have come from outside the town to beg for food. Don''t be afraid, we are full of vitality, and today we will exhaust all of his blood and vitality. They had grown up in the Qingshan Town and had never seen an old man like Chen Fan. After excluding the Senior Expert s in their families, they were certain that they were strangers, and were even more fearless. The reason the families behind these fellows were able to stand firm on the Qingshan Town was more or less because of the relationship with Yuan Sect. As a result, foreign experts did not dare to easily clash with them, as they were worried that they would offend the Yuan Sect. Most of the time, they could only endure the humiliation. Tsk tsk tsk, our Supreme Wu Tian is going to be a hero in saving the beauty! Deer God laughed as he clapped his hands. He did not look down on scum like him either. I am no longer a saint and am too lazy to help the world. Chen Fan muttered to himself, he valued the so called cycle of karma very much. Once it was done as a bad thing, there would sooner or later be karma entangling around it. Especially for cultivators, it was extremely difficult to ascend to the heavens when undergoing heavenly tribulation. Even the price of one''s life would be too late for regret. However, doing good things was the opposite. Perhaps there wasn''t some great destiny descending upon them, but it had definitely erased a lot of disasters. It wasn''t that they didn''t want to report, but that the time wasn''t right yet. The wisdom of the ancient people was always right. This daddy still has the same words, in Qingshan Town, I have always been the only one to bully others. Since you want to stand out like this, then prepare to die! Young Master Ma waved his hand, signalling the young men beside him to spread out their fighting spirit and raise their cultivation, causing a strong fighting spirit to radiate out from them. Old man, let''s quickly run. They are all Foundation Establishment cultivators, so they will suffer. Yu Chan reminded Yu Chan. She could not bear to see Chen Fan being helped and feeling satisfied because of his own injuries. She felt that he was suddenly pulled from hell to heaven. Heh heh, useless trash. It''s not worth mentioning. Chen Fan was very confident. Although his cultivation was blurry, giving people a vague illusion, he was actually only at Qi Disciple level 8. Any one of these young men who surrounded them was an early Foundation Establishment expert, and their leader, the Young Master Ma, was at the second level of the Foundation Establishment stage. Being able to do whatever they wanted in the Qingshan Town meant that they naturally had real ability. Otherwise, their family would not be so unrestrained. Putting it into the ordinary Sect of the outside world, to be able to reach the Foundation Building Stage at this age, it was definitely a small genius that was rarely seen. It would receive a lot of attention, and presumably, the same goes for the clans in the Qingshan Town. Rumble rumble rumble! The furious Young Master Ma was the first to explode, a slender Lex Sabre appeared in his hand and directly pierced towards Chen Fan''s head, he did not plan on keeping him alive. At the same time, a few of his followers also joined in the process of activating the Spiritual Energy. They condensed the Seal that was as large as blood and produced a huge muffled sound in the air. It seemed like their teamwork was quite coordinated. Yu Chan rushed forward to attack, while her little brothers teamed up to attract Chen Fan''s attention, killing two birds with one stone. If it was an ordinary Qi Disciple cultivator, with the strength of the attack coupled with the flashing of the sword light, it would be enough to make them panic to the point of being at a loss of what to do. However, they had coincidentally met Chen Fan. To this old monster, the battle experience from ten thousand years ago was enough to crush these hooligans. With a ''kacha'' sound, he only extended two of his fingers. It seemed like his movements were slow, but he was able to accurately predict the path that the Lex Sabre would follow. Using the force from his fingers to hold it, just like when Young Master Ma made two bloody marks on Yu Chan''s arm, the sword broke the moment it came into contact with Chen Fan''s body. He broke into two parts exactly, and there was even a surge of brute force that forcefully rotated and devoured back into Young Master Ma''s body, causing him to feel as if his internal organs were being rotated once. Just as the sword body fell to the ground, the Seal in the air was blasted away by Chen Fan with a palm. Even though the Myriad Manifestation Saint Technique had not reached the stage where it could disappear without a trace, devouring such a low level attack was still not a difficult task. Even Chen Fan felt that he had suffered a little because of this skill. Yesterday, he had used all his power to refine the Purple Gold Ginseng and only used it to deal with a few human dregs. How was this possible? Young Master Ma watched the scene in front of him in a daze. The Lex Sabre he had placed high hopes on was actually fractured inch by inch, and his own palm was also injured. This was something he had never expected. After acting wantonly in the Qingshan Town for so many years, he had not been treated like this ever since he could remember. This was no longer a matter of putting him in his eyes. It was a matter of Cheng Fan completely ignoring him and getting beaten to such a state. You old fogey, you''re spoiling my good fortune, yet you want to force me to make a move? Today, I''ll definitely let you die for my sword body again! Young Master Ma''s face contorted. All of you are simply too weak. You don''t even have the qualifications to bully both men and women. Chen Fan said with some disgust. If this were ten thousand years ago, he wouldn''t even need to look them in the eye. It''s not up to you to mind. You should be beaten to death for relying on your seniority. "Whiz!" Glaring fiercely at Chen Fan, he clenched his fists tightly, causing the sword fragments on the ground to rise up once again, forming a circle around him. It was surrounded from all directions by Sword Intent and was not very pure. There was even a bit of emptiness that could be used to deal with ordinary Refinement Stage cultivators. He activated almost all of the Sword Intent in front of him that he could defeat, and like a raging sea, they surged and surrounded Chen Fan. His five fingers moved together, soundlessly and soundlessly transforming into an eagle''s claw, grabbing onto the remnants of the Sword Intent, the Young Master Ma melded it into the void. This brat really had some tricks up his sleeve. During this entire process, his left hand had always been tucked inside his sleeve, as if it was an instinctive reaction to pain. No one would have thought that he was preparing a sneak attack. His eagle claws that were only an inch or so large were solid, and had at least a thousand kilograms of strength. He used the cover from his sword to get close to Chen Fan. He hadn''t forgotten to give his lackeys a meaningful look and continue to divert the lackeys'' attention, maintaining his last bit of rationality. Old man, go to hell! For the time being, the anger of these hooligans had the upper hand. One after another, palm imprints began to bombard them, reaching the limits of their cultivation level. Along the way, there were gusts of wind, and in the unceasing whistling sound, they rushed in front of Chen Fan, and Young Master Ma''s eagle claws appeared behind his back. Old man, be careful! Yu Chan saw the Eagle Claw appear, and immediately used her hand to stop it, but she was not able to catch it, and was slower by a step. Hahaha, you guys deal with this old thing. Throw it far away, and we''ll have the same good news as before. Young Master Ma laughed out loud, as if he could already see the scene of Chen Fan''s decapitated body. That eagle claw was his last trump card; it was so powerful that even a third level Foundation Establishment cultivator would be instantly split into two halves without any preparation. Furthermore, with the strength of Chen Fan''s attack, his fighting strength was still at the early stage of Foundation Establishment. Naturally, Young Master Ma thought that he could kill him. Soon, however, he could no longer smile, and even his expression gradually turned stiff. Chen Fan''s hands interweaved very quickly, and what could be seen with the naked eye was a series of afterimages as he forcefully sent the floating fragments of the sword flying back. Before the dozen or so palm prints could even approach his body, they were swallowed up by an invisible force, and each piece of debris was augmented by a swift and fierce force. There was no time to dodge at all, as Young Master Ma and the rest had already tasted the painful fruit that they had personally made. As for that eagle claw, it had long since disappeared without a trace. Under the powerful refinement of the Myriad Manifestation Holy Technique, it disintegrated in two breaths of time. Enjoy yourself. I am helping you to get out of this situation. Young people should suffer more setbacks, not to mention that this is the punishment you deserve. Just from fighting two or three times, Chen Fan could roughly deduce this kid''s usual cultivation state. It was obvious that he did not have that much aptitude, but he was still excessively chasing after realms to increase them. While his life force was being drained by the alcohol, he also needed the support of the Spiritual Pill. Even the cultivation techniques he practiced focused on fighting strength first. He was definitely a competitive, arrogant and overbearing guy. In front of someone with Qingshan Town that could flaunt his ferocity, once he walked out of here, he would be nothing but a pile of dregs in front of a true expert. Old... Just you wait, someone will come and take care of you! Young Master Ma crawled up in fear, trembling as he spoke fiercely, while the other delinquents hid behind him. Just do whatever you want, but if I see you again, I won''t be able to tell if these two fingers will land on the top of my head or somewhere else. Due to the fact that he did not want to cause trouble, Chen Fan did not kill him, even when the Young Master Ma did not hesitate to unleash his killing move. It was simply a matter of physical pain, as well as the fact that their acupoints had all been punctured by the sword fragments. It was nothing much for them at the moment, but it would be very difficult for them to cultivate in the future. There was no need for these scum to have too much power. The moment spiritual energy entered their bodies, it would be an insult to heaven and earth. Hmph, we''ll see each other in half a day. Let''s go! Young Master Ma was so angry that he wanted to say something, but after being stared at by Chen Fan, his heart became completely afraid, and he was no longer able to breathe. C82 He could only lead his underlings and run with a dejected face, but he was still a bit scared. If those pieces went directly for his throat, he would not have a chance to live. Alright, it''s alright now. Where are your family members? Hurry up and find them. Without even looking at Young Master Ma and the others, Chen Fan consoled them in a low voice. Senior, I don''t have any family left. Hearing this, Yu Chan once again burst into tears. This... Seeing that, Chen Fan did not have time to ask, as at his age, he was actually at a loss as to what to do. How can you be terrified at this moment? You used to have the aura of a Martial Saint. Many proud ladies of the heavens threw themselves at you, but you rejected them all. Deer God laughed weirdly, and met Chen Fan''s eyes. Not to mention that he did not even have that intention in mind, if he really did that, wouldn''t he become an animal like Young Master Ma and the rest? Senior, I have no one to rely on in terms of Qingshan Town, it''s you who saved me today, I will definitely think of a way to repay your kindness in the future. Yu Chan cried as she kneeled on the ground, thanking her while sobbing. Hurry up, hurry up, I can''t take this. Previously, when he saw Hu Mu kowtowing, Chen Fan was secretly pleased, but it was different now. It turned out that he wasn''t very close to this kind of woman, and was always criticized by the disciples as being no different from a wood person. Rather than fighting with Young Master Ma for three hundred rounds, he was also unwilling to see a little girl like this. If you don''t have a place to stay, I''ll send you to a safe place first. Reporting to Senior, this little girl had only been in the Qingshan Town for two or three days. It could be seen that Yu Chan had also experienced many hardships, and an undetectable sadness was still hidden deep within her beautiful eyes. This kind of expression was completely natural, it was impossible for her to fake it. Or perhaps, there were also painful stories and memories behind her. Chen Fan... He was homeless, fatherless, and even had such a beautiful appearance. He was simply a living bait on the streets, it would be weird if the Young Master Ma and the others did not notice him. If Senior doesn''t mind, can you let this little girl follow by your side? Yu Chan mustered up her courage and pleaded, she knew that this might be her only chance, if not, after you leave, she would be weak, and would probably fall into the hands of those beasts once again ¡­ Only by dying can we preserve our innocence... He was currently a Master Gu and this little girl had just been bullied, she would definitely be dependent on this kind old man. If he were to return to his original appearance, he would definitely be treated as a swindler. He might even be treated like Young Master Ma He or some unscrupulous rogue. After all, he could not reveal the secrets of a ten thousand year old monster. Chen Fan had acted on impulse just now, but who would have thought that there would be so much trouble? Sending the Buddha to hell, for a good person to be the end, you should have a little girl by your side too. If you really don''t want to be taken care of, you can just hand her over to Nangong Xuan. The Deer God also came up with an idea. The Heavenly Dao was originally aloof and aloof, looking down upon all living things with indifference. Ever since he had been intercepted by Cao Rui, he had witnessed the various aspects of life, and this old fellow had formed his own consciousness. Why don''t you follow me first, and make your plans after we leave the Yuan Sect in two days? Chen Fan accepted Deer God''s suggestion, but it could only be this way, to let him abandon Yu Chan here, in the future his dao heart would definitely be tormented. Really? Thank you, senior! You are my savior! Yu Chan was extremely excited, she was about to kneel and kowtow, but she was quickly helped to get up by Chen Fan. It was truly weird, even Ancient Saint Realm Rankers would be able to calmly accept it, but to this little lady, Chen Fan was actually at a loss. What''s your name? You haven''t eaten yet, right? You can''t go hungry, what do you want to eat? Come on, come on, think of something fun. Always with a bitter face, not good for the skin ¡­ In the following half a day, he could no longer feel the aura of the mortal world. With such a pure and innocent little girl by his side, he no longer looked like an ordinary person at all. The sky was clear and the air was bright, so Yang Guan was in a good mood. As the representative of Yuan Sect, even though he was only an inner disciple, he still received a lot of respect and was extremely prestigious. He was definitely the overlord of this land. Even the few families in the town had to rely on Yang Guan''s breathing. He only needed a few words to destroy their foundation. The reason why Yang Guan possessed such power at such a young age was because he had the huge tree Yuan Sect backing him. To the entire North Domain, it was a colossus that could not be provoked. To the Qingshan Town, it was even more so the sky above them. It just so happened that one of the protectors from Yuan Sect surnamed Sun came over to check on the situation, just to see how the inner sect disciples were doing before returning to the sect to report the situation. Yang Guan was looking forward to the stars and the moon, hence he looked forward to see this Protector Sun. There were more than a hundred cities in various sizes attached to the Yuan Sect and their Qingshan Town was only at the middle level. Even in his dreams, Yang Guan wanted to raise his Qingshan Town by a step. Now that he had curried favor with the Protector Sun, upon reaching the Sect, he would say a few beautiful words. Fortunately, Yang Guan''s usual results were not bad, and the Protector Sun was very satisfied with his performance. Seeing that the matter was set, the former became even more excited, and would soon be transferred to an even bigger town. Protector Sun, it wasn''t easy for you to make a trip here. I haven''t even done my best as a host yet, why are you so anxious to leave? Yang Guan smiled. No need, there are still a few towns at the back that I haven''t visited yet. I heard that those little guys have done well, the mission that Sect gave me hasn''t been completed yet, let''s talk about it later when I''m free. The Protector Sun waved his hand. Yang Guan naturally understood the meaning behind his words and immediately passed a Storage Bag. Hehe, this disciple has already trained in Qingshan Town for more than two years, and is thinking that it is time to change the location, I hope that Protector Sun will give you more support. Hahaha, little fellow, you are quite considerate. If you could come up with a plan to move to a bigger town, this old man would not treat you unfairly. The Protector Sun slipped it into his sleeve. The moves went back and forth, the whole process took less than two breaths, smooth as flowing water. It could be seen that both sides were extremely experienced. In reality, these towns directly supplied the Yuan Sect, and no one had the guts to make a move on them. The reason why they had to send out another disciple was more of a symbol, representing the will of their Yuan Sect. In other words, everyone was doing quite well. As for who would get the chance to get a promotion, that would depend on their own ''offerings'' ¡ª even the spot to go out and inspect, was won by the Protector Sun for a long time. Even though it was like this, he still had to help his fellow sect members who were speaking on behalf of him when he returned to the Sect to split the loot. Thank you, Protector Sun, for your concern. Yang Guan thanked him repeatedly, but his heart was in pain. He had clearly already given away tens of thousands of Spiritual Stone''s treasures, and only now did he happily give this old fellow out. To be honest, Yuan Sect was an extremely brilliant method. Through the method of letting many disciples manage small towns outside the country, not only could Sect be guaranteed to operate, there was no need to worry about the shortage of cultivation resources. Moreover, it was also an experience for these disciples, from their actual abilities to their ways and means. In addition, due to their urge to cultivate, everyone wanted to change to a bigger town and gain more benefits. They needed to have enough strength to support their progress. Otherwise, even if the elder were to personally speak, it would be of no use if he was just acting arrogantly. Brother, you have to avenge me! Without waiting for the smile on Yang Guan''s face to disappear, the Young Master Ma suddenly led a few people and pounced in front of him. If he were to stand up and speak, wouldn''t it be a joke if he were to cry and make a ruckus? Yang Guan berated, and indirectly told them of the latter''s identity, warning them to restrain themselves a little. Hearing this, Young Master Ma''s heart thumped, he immediately stood up and wiped away the snot and tears on his face. Originally, she was still a little suspicious that Yang Guan was the one who kept his word at Qingshan Town. How could he be so respectful and cautious towards this old man today, she didn''t expect him to actually be the Yuan Sect''s protector. Today, they really did have a grudge with these old things. Young Master Ma thought. What was going on? Yang Guan asked harshly, he wanted to slap them to death. If Protector Sun felt like he was being offended, not to mention the Spiritual Being in front, he could forget about getting promoted himself, there would be no chance at all. Today, we were just hanging out in the streets when we happened to see ¡­ Young Master Ma was not stupid and did not say everything about his misdeeds. He only said that he was discussing cultivation issues with Yu Chan, but added fuel to the fire by blackening Chen Fan a lot, and purposely said the words to slander Yuan Sect. In front of Protector Sun, he would definitely not ignore him. Perhaps this person is here on purpose to flirt with my existence and give me some pointers. My Yuan Sect''s reputation cannot be so sullied. Sure enough, Protector Sun opened his mouth, his face filled with anger. Protector Sun, please rest for a moment. I will go over and teach that guy a lesson right now, you really can''t take it lying down. Yang Guan cupped his hands. How could he not understand the nature of the Young Master Ma? The Young Master Ma was viewed by Yang Guan as a dog that was raised in the Qingshan Town. He would never lower himself to deal with such a mess. However, it just so happened that the Protector Sun was here, which just so happened to be a good opportunity for Yang Guan to show off his skills, so he immediately decided to go and fight in order to protect his reputation in Sect. C83 Chen Fan first brought Yu Chan to fill her stomach, then took a break at the inn to dress up and choose a new set of clothes. Finally, he had a smile on his face. Regarding Yu Chan''s background, Chen Fan did not have the intention to interrogate him in detail. In any case, handing the information over to Nangong Xuan did not have much of a relationship with him. In the words of the Deer God, a man who was determined to become a Zhi Zun, how could he be controlled by such a primitive but crude instinct? This was the first time Chen Fan agreed with the old fellow''s point of view. When he saw the brand-new Yu Chan, even Chen Fan, who had seen many different goddesses and Holy Maiden s, was slightly shocked. At first glance, he felt that the world was suffocating. Her exquisite facial features were impeccable, her sharp chin was not mean at all. It formed a line along the bridge of her nose, making her look absolutely stunning. The curves of her figure were just right. The more attractive she was, the less perfect she felt. It was as if she was a masterpiece created by the heavens themselves. What''s more, she smiled subtly, revealing her white teeth. It made people want to give it their all to protect her, to the point where their hearts almost melted away. In that moment, Chen Fan started to hesitate. Such a perfect beauty, in terms of looks, he was not inferior to Nangong Xuan. Staying by his side to support others was also good, but when he recalled the words "beauty will bring calamity", Chen Fan immediately gave up on this idea. Come, come with me to the Yuan Sect. We''ll stay there for the next few days. Chen Fan said. After leaving for such a long time, the Third Elder would probably become extremely anxious. Ah? Yu Chan was obviously shocked, and unknowingly revealed a flustered expression. Don''t worry, I have a good relationship with their Yuan Sect 3. Stay by my side, there won''t be a problem. Recalling how the grandfather and grandson both looked to him, Chen Fan couldn''t help but want to laugh. Alright, I will listen to whatever senior says. Yu Chan nodded, she was very meek. As a transcendent power, Holy Maiden possessed a different holy aura from Nangong Xuan''s. She naturally placed emphasis on prestige, like an iceberg, and treated all the onlookers with incomparable coldness. Even though they were both devastatingly beautiful, Yu Chan was more like a fairy who didn''t have the slightest hint of mortal energy, and couldn''t tolerate even the slightest bit of dirt. Even if she took the initiative to approach towards the direction of ordinary people, she had simply fallen by mistake. The two of them, one in front and one behind, were just about to leave the Qingshan Town, but not long after, they were stopped. Stop, you want to leave after injuring someone? Yang Guan led Young Master Ma and the rest, aggressively blocking the way, his face was filled with anger, as though he wanted to attack the moment there was a disagreement. What, you still dare to appear in front of me? It seems like you have forgotten to receive my warning. Chen Fan said blandly, and also pulled Yu Chan behind him. The little girl was frightened, it seemed that she really needed Nangong Xuan''s advice and comfort in the future. There were some things that a man like Chen Fan couldn''t say. Don''t go too far. With Senior Martial Brother Wang here, you old bastard won''t be able to escape from me. Young Master Ma subconsciously thought back to his tragic experience that morning and his body trembled. However, he still mustered his courage and shouted out. I''ve always been a kind person. I usually give you a second chance to live, Chen Fan paused for a moment, and his gaze instantly became sharp. But if you court death yourself, no one can save you. Since sire came to my Qingshan Town and randomly attacked without giving any explanation, you should at least give me an explanation. Yang Guan said coldly. At the same time, he quickly thought about it in his mind as he tried to guess the origin of this old fellow. Who are you? Chen Fan glanced at him, pretending to see what he was seeing. The inner sect disciple of Yuan Sect, Yang Guan, had taken the place of Sect to manage this Qingshan Town. proudly said. To be able to become a Yuan Sect disciple, he had an innate sense of superiority. I took action to teach this kid a lesson. He''s acting on behalf of the heavens and is very loyal. He only needs to answer to the heavens, there''s no need for me to be so long-winded towards you. This is definitely a hundred percent of an excuse. The Heaven''s Path incarnation is inside my Zifu Space, Chen Fan can''t possibly get angry after talking to you for a while, can the Deer God? After all, he was an inner sect disciple. Yang Guan''s self-control was much better than the Young Master Ma''s, and climbing to this position, he must definitely have some tricks up his sleeves. If it was anyone else who was treated like that, they would definitely slap him, but Yang Guan took a deep breath and asked while suppressing his anger. Sir, may I ask who you are? This is the domain of my Yuan Sect, so please tell me who you are. What a joke, no one had heard of those words before. Justice was in the heart of men, so what did it count as if you were in cahoots with those kinds of people? Chen Fan pointed to Young Master Ma and spat on the ground. I ask you one last time, who exactly are you, and what is your purpose for coming to my Qingshan Town? The veins on Yang Guan''s forehead throbbed, and he almost couldn''t hold it anymore. I am not from the Yuan Sect, I just happened to pass by this place by chance, and saw the actions of this beast. Chen Fan did not hesitate, he already had the banner of virtue, with the victim by his side, how could he not let him speak of it? But today, I want to ask, Yuan Sect usually takes care of the ears and ears of hundreds of sects, so the appearance of such a preposterous person is simply unforgivable! As an inner sect disciple that oversees this place, not only did you not take care of this, you even blocked my path, what kind of logic is that?! At this time, the surrounding people had already gathered over, and after hearing Chen Fan''s words, they couldn''t help but raise their thumbs up. Young Master Ma''s reputation in the town was practically negative. He had been committing all sorts of heinous crimes, committing murder and arson, countless good ladies fallen under his hands, and even forcibly robbed countless Spiritual Being. If not for the support of his family and Yang Guan, he would have been a street rat and would have been beaten to death many times over. This Young Master Ma must have bullied that girl again, maybe she was her family, but this brat still refused to let them go. Heh, letting this kind of person live in this world is simply blind. I really hope that one day, I can take him away. Hearing the discussions at the side, Young Master Ma was even more furious, he wished that he could kill all of these people, so that he could become a laughingstock. What are you arguing about? Do you even have the right to speak? If you continue to speak, you will be chopped into minced meat and thrown out of the town! However, after hearing Chen Fan''s reprimand, Yang Guan did not immediately refute it. Not only did he question him, he even brought along the entirety of his Yuan Sect. How could an ordinary person have such courage and courage? Perhaps, this old fellow really did have a great background. Let''s go! Chen Fan threw down these words, and started to leave the town in big strides. C84 His face quickly changed, although he felt that something was amiss, thinking about how the Protector Sun was still waiting there, Yang Guan decided to not let go of this chance to display his skills. Your esteemed self is just a Rogue Cultivator and yet you want to become my enemy, I''m afraid you do not have that capability. No matter what, we can''t just let this matter go. We can either leave this girl here or leave your old life here, choosing who is more important. Hearing that, Chen Fan secretly felt it was funny, the world had truly changed, any random person could threaten his life. He was actually making an emperor out of such a crappy place? Chen Fan ridiculed. Even the ancestors of your Yuan Sect do not dare to say such words. Back then, even after being surrounded by so many Ancient Saint s, not a single hair on your body was hurt. Tsk tsk, Supreme Wu Tian, your face is disgraceful. Otherwise, if you were to go to Shaolin Temple to recite scriptures, I heard that sweeping monks are also not bad. Deer God continued to laugh out loud as usual. For someone like him who was well aware of Chen Fan, there was nothing in this world more ridiculous than this. Oh no, the old man was going to suffer, Yang Guan was not someone to be trifled with. Just now, he should have escaped quickly. This was all over, Yang Guan was definitely going to kill him. Everyone''s face changed, they looked at Chen Fan with a mournful expression. Yang Guan had accumulated a lot of prestige in terms of Qingshan Town. Other than his status as an inner disciple, he had also personally killed more than a dozen people, and no one dared to truly anger him. Young Master Ma also had his arms crossed, standing at the side calmly. He knew that Yang Guan had already given up on staying in the Qingshan Town for a long time, and at the same time, hated it the most when people used a reverse scale to poke his weak spot, to the point where they would be enraged if they were touched. Since you are so conservative that you don''t even want to reveal your name, it doesn''t seem like you need to use it again. You will be removed from the world very soon. Yang Guan sneered, and prepared to fight. He had never allowed anyone in the Qingshan Town to talk about his background, especially regarding the matter of being allocated to this kind of place, which he had always viewed as a disgrace to be an inner disciple. Even in his dreams, he would think of taking charge of a larger town. It was also Yang Guan''s goal, which was why he spent so much effort to curry favor with the Protector Sun. At this point, the key to his promotion might be this old fellow. If Protector Sun was happy to use him as a stepping stone, then it would naturally be so. Senior, what should we do? This person is number one expert in the Qingshan Town of emotions, no one would dare to offend him. Yu Chan timidly warned. Don''t worry, I have everything. He did not care about Yang Guan''s thoughts nor the discussions of the cultivators around him. It was really worth it for him to waste his energy on them. At first, it was only because he couldn''t watch Young Master Ma''s actions anymore and wanted to save Yu Chan. However, he was already stopped by Yang Guan. It sounded like a dignified inner disciple of Yuan Sect. No matter where he went, because of the strength and prosperity of his Sect, he would be treated well whenever he walked around the various places in the North Domain. This was perhaps also the reason why Yang Guan was so arrogant. As the spokesperson for the Yuan Sect, he didn''t even ask about Qing Hong and Qing Bai, and directly attacked Chen Fan. Within a reasonable range, the latter did not mind leaving behind a few lives. In ten thousand years, no one had ever treated him with such rudeness. It was simply absurd. With a hong sound, Yang Guan could no longer hold back, the heavy pressure immediately spread out, turning into the Seal he was holding, he smashed towards Chen Fan''s head. There was one thing that was true, for him to be able to become an inner disciple and to have a cultivation base at the third level of the Foundation Establishment stage, he was definitely not bad amongst the Yuan Sect younger generation. Sky Universe Seven Transformations was instantly activated. First, he moved Yu Chan far away, and then Chen Fan dodged the attack of the spirit seal with an unimaginably fast speed. Old fellow, you refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit; with this ability to stick your head out, what are you trying to hide from me for?! Yang Guan shouted in a stern voice, believing himself to have the upper hand, he was even more satisfied, but he had neglected Chen Fan''s speed, which was almost impossible for him to catch him with his eyes. Before he finished speaking, the elderly figure had already disappeared from his sight. When he came back to his senses, there were only flashes of light in front of Yang Guan, which he subconsciously wanted to defend himself. But very quickly, he discovered that they were not targeting him. Chen Fan''s palm had shot out over ten beams of light, and without exception, all of them struck straight at Young Master Ma and his lackeys. Otherwise, Yue Chan''s safety would be hard to say. Before they call for new reinforcements, Chen Fan was confident that he could suppress them all. Ah! Miserable screams came one after another. Young Master Ma and the rest were already injured, and in just half a day''s time, they had not recovered. Old thing, you dare! Yang Guan was immediately enraged, a moment of carelessness had allowed the former to exploit such a huge loophole, causing him to instantly be unable to contain his anger. Chen Fan had come to stand up for the Young Master Ma in the first place, but he had heavily injured him again in front of himself. Not only that, he had not landed a single blow. Today, I want to see how you are going to remove me from the list. Chen Fan replied coldly, his body continued to move back and forth in the air, occasionally releasing a few fist prints, making Young Master Ma and the rest become live targets. In his rage, Yang Guan took out a Lex Sabre s from his sleeves. They were extremely soft, as if they were made from silk. In the mortal world, there was a famous actress who danced about in the water. If they were allowed to use the flexible sword, they would definitely be able to achieve twice the results with half the effort. Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! After locking onto Chen Fan''s position with the Spiritual Consciousness, Yang Guan immediately tightened his grip on his flexible sword and followed the trajectory of the Spiritual Energy and swung it out, seemingly leaving behind a long whip shadow along the way. This kind of flexible sword had the coldest evaluation amongst cultivators. With the sharpness of the sword and the flexibility of a whip, it was definitely a good weapon for assassination. However, no one was willing to face the flexible sword in a true battle. Although it was soft, it also had a lethal force that could not be ignored. The pair of wings behind him started to flutter and flicker, erupting into hundreds and thousands of Lingyu s, directly enveloping the entire sky around Chen Fan, and faintly blocking the soft sword''s attack. At the same time, in the instant that Lingyu had just formed, he rushed out, as if he was an unstoppable arrow that had left the bow, and brazenly rushed in front of Yang Guan. It was just a fist strike that was not more than ten meters away, yet when it was thrown out, strong brute force poured out without restraint. However, within that seemingly aged body, was strength that caused Yang Guan to be extremely shocked. Just when the wind from the punch was about to touch his body, he could feel space being torn apart at such a short distance. If he were to use his flesh and blood to resist, perhaps half his life would be in danger. At the last moment, Yang Guan came to a sudden realisation. Without thinking, he turned his body away, and at the same time, a waterfall of energy extended out from beneath his feet, separating Young Master Ma from him, as if he was the scapegoat. Brother, why are you so ¡­ The words came to an abrupt stop, even though the Young Master Ma was small and had a Foundation Establishment stage support, he was already emptied out by the alcohol beauties. With a loud bang, the Young Master Ma, who had been in trouble due to the Qingshan Town, was directly penetrated by that fist wind. Blood and intestines flowed on the ground and his aura became even weaker. In some places, eerie stubble was even exposed. It looked extremely terrifying. His face was extremely pale and he barely opened his mouth, but he didn''t even have the strength to speak. This time, he was really happy. Patriarch Ma had always doted on this grandson of his. Hehe, let''s just watch the fun. This brat usually commits many evil deeds. This is also his retribution. So there was actually someone who was tortured even more miserably by him. Quiet down, Ma Family''s spies are spread throughout the entire town, don''t bring disaster upon yourself. After seeing Young Master Ma''s miserable state, everyone was in an uproar, although they were secretly cheering, because of the clan''s might behind him, no one dared to talk too much about it. Trash! Yang Guan cursed, realizing that he was in trouble, and all because of this unskilled dog. Only now did he realize that he was indeed looking down on this old fellow. He looked like a dying man with a speed so fast that it caused others to be speechless. Thinking back on these few rounds of sparring, he didn''t even see how Chen Fan made his move, nor did he touch the corner of his clothes. Lingyu was still moving in the air, gradually forming a black cloud that covered the entire sky. As the light in the surroundings dimmed, the flexible sword''s body continued to be devoured. Although his cultivation level was not high, every single one of Lingyu''s were imbued with Chen Fan''s comprehension of cultivation, and with the power of the Seven Heavenly Universe Transformations, they continuously struck the sword body. Yang Guan was not idle either. Stepping forward, a violent fluctuation spread out from the depths of the ground. He calmly rushed towards Chen Fan, still intending to use his lower body as the breakthrough point. However, with his sharp senses, all of Yang Guan''s movements were exposed in front of Chen Fan''s eyes. Clang! Just as that hidden force wanted to jump out, it was met with an incomparably tough face. It seemed to have come across a high-grade spiritual treasure and even produced sparks. Not bad, not bad, so it turns out that Yuan Sect disciples would also use this kind of sneak attack method. Chen Fan said while smiling, and his tone sounded extremely cold. He could feel that this guy was truly trying to kill him. Since that was the case, there was nothing left to say. Having been on the road of cultivation for so long, after countless of experiences and lessons, Chen Fan''s number one rule was to not let go of any enemies that wanted to kill him. C85 Don''t be too proud, your death is coming! Yang Guan sensed that something was amiss, but he still held his neck and spoke harshly. As he crazily stirred his Spiritual Consciousness s, controlling the flexible sword across the air, attempting to intimidate Chen Fan, Yang Guan readjusted his strategy. After that, he slowly spread open his hands, and vigorous Spiritual Energy began to condense. He did not stay in the Qingshan Town for an entire two years for nothing, as terrifying fluctuations immediately began to spread. Many lines appeared on his originally ordinary palm, all of them were pure Spiritual Energy flowing, and then transformed into a series of strange Talisman s. His palm was also glowing with a speed that could be seen with the naked eye, as though he had been transformed into a god in that instant. The light shone all over Yang Guan''s face, filling him with confidence. He did not expect that this guy could really force Yang Guan into a corner, to even use his Essence Palm. If I remember correctly, Yang Guan used this palm technique to defeat an elder of the Long family, and only then was he able to establish his prestige. Although he was still at the Third Cycle of the Foundation Establishment Stage, someone had heard from the Patriarch Ma that with the power of the Essence Origin Palm, he could easily jump a whole level to challenge others. There was no lack of knowledgeable spectators, or perhaps they had seen Yang Guan''s move before, and were somewhat surprised. The latter had come to the Qingshan Town for two years already, so she had made her move quite a few times. The Essence Palm was a famous skill that he had relied on to establish his might. It was something that could not be easily revealed, and it made everyone look forward to it even more. Die! When the Spiritual Energy''s fluctuation reached its peak, Yang Guan revealed a cold smile, turned his palm into a blade, and heavily slashed down, bringing along an endless amount of force. Regarding this, Chen Fan only laughed indifferently and unhurriedly took out his Dao Burning Furnace. A hazy light similarly lingered around the Furnace Body, and there was an additional layer of dense dao halo. If there were any elders seeing this scene, they would definitely be able to determine the outcome of this battle. Yang Guan''s might seemed to be comparable, but he was still stuck at the simple Spiritual Energy level. On the other hand, even though Chen Fan was still in the Mortal Realm, this Dao Burning Furnace was the biggest trump card. Rumble rumble rumble! The two were not on the same level at all. When the Furnace Body and the Essence Spirit Palm collided, it released a loud sound, as if a hammer was hitting the drum, but unfortunately it was about to break soon. Boy, you''re trying to trick me! The Deer God cried out in grief and indignation. In the space to pay attention, he watched helplessly as his original body was thrown out just like that. He even had the heart to fight Chen Fan with his life on the line. This magic treasure was personally crafted by my disciple, what does it have to do with you? Chen Fan was a little helpless. The old fellow was this agitated all of a sudden, and those who didn''t know what he was doing would think that he was being mistreated, forcefully stripping the former out the second time they met. Besides, Zifu Space actually suits you quite well, so just stay in peace. While he was speaking, the aggressive Essence Palm had already been devoured by the Furnace Body, and didn''t even have the chance to create a ripple before it disappeared with a loud bang. All the onlookers were astonished. They had originally been thinking that this wonderful fight between dragons and tigers would end so soon, but they didn''t expect it to end so soon. The crux of the problem was that no one had seen the location of the Essence Palm. Even from a distance, it felt extremely eye-piercing. It was true that Yang Guan had fully displayed his Third Cycle of the Foundation Establishment stage battle power. Right now, he was also a little confused. The battlefield was quiet and peaceful and the little bit of Spiritual Energy''s aura did not exist. It was as if nothing had happened. Such a strange scene could only be attributed to Chen Fan''s extreme speed footwork, which exceeded the limit of what their eyes could react to, and silently annihilated the Essence Origin Palm. Immediately after, the Dao Burning Furnace trembled in the air. This level of attack was worse than scratching an itch on it, it released a ray of light which shot towards Yang Guan. After doing all this, Chen Fan kept the Dao Burning Furnace. There was no need for him to show off his might in this kind of place, it would be troublesome if someone recognized him. Seeing that the situation was not good, Yang Guan immediately pulled the flexible sword back, and with the great effort, the originally flexible sword body became more stiff, and the spirit inside was destroyed by Lingyu. Swish! The beam of light left behind by the Dao Burning Furnace hid itself in the void. As it moved forward, it pierced through the few followers of the Young Master Ma and fell down painfully. The pattern on Yang Guan''s palm had been completely destroyed, causing him to be completely defeated and become defensive, barely able to find an opening during the battle. How was this possible? Yang Guan was actually defeated! Even the invincible Essence Palm could not suppress him, how strong was this old man exactly? Although Yang Guan was not some kind of ultimate expert, he was definitely one of the top few cultivators in this small place like Qingshan Town, not to mention that he also had the identity of a Yuan Sect disciple. Everyone could not help but be astonished. In these past two years, no matter how much conflict there was between the big families of the town and Yang Guan, they would not fall out with him. It was precisely because he had the Yuan Sect as his backer that Chen Fan did not care about him at all today. It could be said to be the first time this had ever happened in the Qingshan Town. He has also heavily injured Young Master Ma and the others at the same time, my Qingshan Town is probably going to receive a huge earthquake soon. There were already people who had predicted the arrival of the storm. Young Master Ma and his followers were not only the silkpants in the town, they were all from influential families. Now that they had all been injured by Chen Fan, and the life and death of the Young Master Ma was unknown, coupled with Yang Guan''s defeat, if there were no surprises, those large clans would definitely send out a few experts to stop him. No one was optimistic about Chen Fan. No matter how strong a single person''s power was, it was impossible for them to fight against several ancient families with deep backgrounds that had existed for hundreds of years. The sounds of discussions that came from beside his ears, as well as Yang Guan''s cold demeanor, were all making it clear that he had put down a great disaster ¡ª ¡ª In this one and a third acre of land called Qingshan Town, it was no different from piercing the heavens. This was not the end. Since he was going to fight, and chose to fight to the death, then he must have an explanation, and he must not ruin the reputation of the Supreme Wu Tian. Chen Fan brought his five fingers together, and several pillars of energy as thick as pythons arrived with a loud rumble, tightly wrapping around Yang Guan. In an instant, their brute strength was not less than a few thousand kilograms. Every inch of space was being compressed towards the center. The Spiritual Energy was boiling but could not withstand Chen Fan''s attacks. Cracks appeared from all directions at the same time, unceasingly gushing out energy of nothingness. It had to be known that this was only a confrontation of Foundation Building Stage. It was so easy to break apart the void, and not only did the cultivators see it brilliantly, even the commoners beside them were extremely excited. In regards to the tiny Qingshan Town, Foundation Building Stage could already be considered to be the peak of experts. Normally, there wouldn''t be a chance for them to experience such a degree of fierce battle, and even after so many years, there wouldn''t necessarily be one. Continue, take out the airs you put up just now, and let me see the might of the inner sect disciples of the Yuan Sect. Without leaving a trace, Chen Fan made a claw shape with his hands, and then his body rushed out. Within the span of a few breaths, he had already set up a seal in a radius of twenty to thirty feet. Ka-cha! * Hearing this kind of crisp sound, Yang Guan''s little face almost turned green. He didn''t even have the energy to refute, and was already exhausted to the point of being unable to cope with it. He was having a hard time speaking. He didn''t want to waste so much energy just to tear open the space, which would put a heavy burden on his cultivation. However, Chen Fan''s attacks were fatal, each of his attacks were extremely powerful, and he was forced to follow up. Otherwise, if he didn''t have enough turbulence to protect himself, he would be in danger. He might need to use this body to fill the void. On one hand, they only needed simple physical movements to borrow a huge amount of external power. On the other hand, Yang Guan had to use the Spiritual Energy s as the price. Just as Chen Fan was about to kill this brat, his eyes inadvertently landed on an old man outside the fighting circle. He had no choice but to stop. His hair was white and he had a skinny body with a wooden crutch in his hand. He looked very ordinary, but Chen Fan could tell that he was definitely a strong Ranker. At least to the current him, as well as the small Qingshan Town in a radius of five kilometers beneath his feet, this person''s threat far surpassed Yang Guan''s. This dao friend, on Qingshan Town''s territory, you can casually injure people and beat up Yuan Sect disciples. Even this old man''s Grandson did not escape, you have acted too excessively. The old man and Chen Fan looked at each other, the old man''s eyes were blazing like fire, like a sharp knife, he hated that he could not directly chop into pieces, the anger overflowing from the depths of his eyes. It''s the Patriarch Ma! After being beaten to such a state, even if Young Master Ma managed to survive, his cultivation would probably be crippled, causing the Patriarch Ma to erupt with thunderous fury. I already said that it would startle him to death and he already broke through the Core Formation Stage more than ten years ago, so his strength must be even more unpredictable now. Everyone was very familiar with this old man, he could almost be called the living fossil of Qingshan Town, and he could even control the most robust Ma Family ¡ª ¡ª Young Master Ma was precisely his biological grandson. Young Master, what''s wrong?! The disciples of Ma Family had finally arrived and were all stunned when they saw the Young Master Ma. Carry the young master back, gather all the teachers in the town, and use the best Spiritual Being to treat him at all costs. Patriarch Ma quickly walked to the side of the pile of rotten flesh, reached out his hand and released a green light, barely able to replenish the life force of this disappointing Grandson, his old body was trembling uncontrollably. His state of mind, which had not fluctuated for decades, was still doing its best to maintain his calm. He was worried that the violent fluctuations would cause second damage to the Young Master Ma. Grandfather, I ¡­ At this moment, Young Master Ma''s entire body was soaked in blood, the more air he breathed, the less air he drew. He was still holding on to his last breath, struggling to think of something, causing Patriarch Ma to almost burst out in tears. Hold on longer, wait for grandfather to take revenge for you, my Grandson cannot be bullied like this! Hearing the Patriarch''s order, many disciples frantically carried Young Master Ma away like a dead dog. They didn''t know if they could even escape with their lives. C86 Patriarch Ma, I know a few seniors within the Sect. They are all seniors who are well versed in medicine, so it would be good for me to invite them here in my name. Yang Guan, on the other hand, came to sue the old man first, and took the initiative to clasp his hands at the old man, pretending to be anxious and pretending to be a good person even though he was obviously holding onto the spear blocked by the Young Master Ma. In terms of strength, even Yang Guan wasn''t a match for the Patriarch Ma. After all, the latter had been rooted in the Qingshan Town for a hundred years and had extremely deep qualifications, forcefully grinding it all the way to the Core Formation Stage Realm. Back then, when he had first arrived at the Qingshan Town, Yang Guan was already extremely fearful of this old fellow. Fortunately, this Patriarch Ma was very tactful, he would often lower himself and raise Yang Guan, causing the latter to lose face. Because of this, in recent years, Ma Family had gained the opportunity to soar into the sky, directly becoming the number one clan in Qingshan Town. In that case, this old man thanks Little Fellow Taoist Yang on behalf of the Grandson. If it was during normal times, to be able to get help from Yuan Sect, Patriarch Ma would definitely be overjoyed, but today, he really couldn''t squeeze out a single smile. After he investigated Young Master Ma''s body, he actually did not hold much hope anymore. More than 80% of his meridians had been broken, his blood vessels had collapsed, and most of his life force had been lost. Even if a strong practitioner from Yuan Sect were to come out, with Young Master Ma''s physique, it would still be difficult for his to survive this calamity. This old man will settle this debt with you. If you want to keep the corpse intact, then kowtow three times in front of everyone here and I''ll give you a quick death. Don''t you want to ask, why did I have to hit Young Master Ma so heavily? Was Yang Guan speaking the truth? What was the cause of this? Chen Fan asked continuously, his expression cold. In his heart, he felt that this Yuan Sect wasn''t really a big deal, and if this continued for too long, even the first Sect would be dragged to the bottom by these fellows. This old man only knows that you injured my Grandson and Little Fellow Taoist Yang, this is disrespecting this old man, and insulting Yuan Sect, this is simply unforgivable! Patriarch Ma stabbed the wooden crutch into the ground heavily and shouted. It could be seen that he was not as hesitant as Yang Guan. However, this piece of ginger was truly spicy, with just a few words, he raised the banner of Yuan Sect, putting Chen Fan on the opposite side of the Sect. A strong pressure swept out like floodwaters, it was even more different than Yang Guan''s. It not only caused a simple fear, it also caused a suffocating feeling that made people unable to resist. Those onlookers were also surrounded and could no longer move. It was as if a huge rock was pressing down on their chest and they were about to fall. They had never felt such a close proximity to death. This was the absolute suppression of a Core Formation Stage expert. A single cold shout was enough to crush all the ordinary cultivators here. They acted in such a way, and Chen Fan, who bore the brunt of the impact, had such a feeling. The battle between the two elders had not even begun, and they had already judged the difference in power. If we were to say that the entire Qingshan Town is filled with people like you, who are arrogant and tyrannical, then I don''t think there is a need for this town to exist anymore. Chen Fan shook his head, as disappointment surfaced on his face. But looking at his casual movements, he was not affected at all. Hahaha, what a huge joke. Do you think you can casually make such an important decision just because you''re an elder of the Yuan Sect? Patriarch Ma was so angry that he laughed instead. He didn''t dare to boast about anything else, at least towards an old man like you. Chen Fan said indifferently. No matter how rich the benefits he brought for opening the holy abode with his Yuan Sect, with just a single sentence from the Third Elder, was enough to change the sky and earth of Qingshan Town. Enough! Patriarch Ma did not want to continue the fight. With a cold shout, he released a sharp Qi from his palm, and was about to attack Chen Fan. A mere mouse, you don''t have the qualifications to speak to me like this in Qingshan Town, scram! Rumble rumble rumble! A thick and sturdy spirit pillar appeared, mixed with a few palm prints. A clear Talisman appeared in the air, all of them rushing towards Chen Fan. Furthermore, they were quickly dividing along the way and forming a huge net. Even the naked eye could see clearly that all the Spiritual Energy within a radius of three hundred meters were boiling along with them. This was the strength of a Core Formation Stage Ranker. If they did not fight on the same level, they would only be stomped on, the gap between them was just too big. After that, the Patriarch Ma''s sleeves fluttered, and a heavy pressure instantly descended. It was only directed at Chen Fan, and the surrounding space seemed to be filled with lead, wishing that he could crush into pieces. The Spirit Emblem big net tied it up, then it used pressure to seal it off. A series of attacks were released, clearly showing that it was trying to extinguish the life force. Thinking about how his own Grandson had been tormented to such an extent that he might not even be able to keep his life, the Patriarch Ma subconsciously increased his strength. He hadn''t scolded or hit anyone in twenty years. He hadn''t even said any harsh words. He had to make the murderer suffer the same pain in order to quell the anger in his heart. Regarding this, Chen Fan''s reaction was indeed timely. Dozens of coping strategies quickly flashed through his mind, but all of them were rejected in the end. He simply did not have enough strength to support himself. His current strength was too weak. Even if he had used that time to absorb the anger in Patriarch Ma''s body, it was still far from enough to deal with the latter. He could only take out his Dao Burning Furnace s and use his main body to resist it. If he really let the big net land on him, he would really be done for. Sssii! * An ear-piercing sound rang out as Chen Fan continuously produced Seal s. In comparison, his boundless strength was naturally inferior to that of the Patriarch Ma. The Dao Burning Furnace flew out again, floating above his head and releasing an endless divine light, surrounding him and protecting him. The Talisman that was filled with violent energy, as well as the numerous condensed palmprints, kept on wanting to break through and come in. However, the surface of the Furnace Body was still emitting a brilliant light. In this way, Chen Fan activated all the cultivation base in his body, every meridian in his body flowed with pure Spiritual Energy, and the Heavenly Feather Seven Transformations also spread out its wings, with hundreds of Lingyu following suit as he formed a shield. and the others were all watching from the side. Although the latter had the strength of an elder, he had the ability to confer majority of it to himself. Patriarch Ma did not have that many worries, he had been completely enraged by Grandson''s injuries, and had completely taken over his rationality, anxious to kill Chen Fan and vent his anger. This kind of over a hundred year old fellow was destined to stay at this realm for his entire life, and it was difficult for him to have any hopes of making a breakthrough. C87 This was precisely the reason why it was exceptionally frightening. If one were to only stop at this realm for nearly a hundred years, the refinement of Spiritual Energy would reach an extremely terrifying level. In other words, the Patriarch Ma was invincible within the same realm. It might be better to be at least two steps higher than him, to be able to suppress him with his absolute strength, or perhaps be extremely talented, and maybe be able to obtain the upper hand at the same level, it was a pity that Chen Fan did not have either. The friction between the balls of energy continued, quickly killing off the Spiritual Energy in front of them. Even though the Dao Burning Furnace''s rank was not low, there was a limit to how much of it could be moved by Chen Fan. He reckoned that even one in ten thousand would not be able to achieve that. The remaining power was still in slumber, and without sufficient stimulation from the external forces, it would not show itself. It lasted for more than ten breaths of time, and Chen Fan felt that his body was almost completely used up. The Dao Burning Furnace was on the verge of collapsing, and almost fell down many times. The Lingyu beside him had also lost all his energy, and clashing with the Talisman outside the protective shield, he directly went all out. Fortunately, the Patriarch Ma had not pursued him and allowed him to struggle bitterly under the palm imprint and the big net. It was to make him suffer for a period of time. The difference between the two of them was just too great. Even if they exchanged pointers normally, it was impossible for them to cross such a large gap of two whole realms. The surrounding spectators were all regretful, and were unable to say what kind of feeling they were feeling. They naturally stood by the side of the Patriarch Ma, and the elders had great reputation in the Qingshan Town. Many of their ancestors had received his help, yet he just so happened to have such a disappointing grandson. Chen Fan personally taught him a lesson, who knew how pleasant it would be for them. Without making a sound, the spirit light vanished and the godly aura retreated. Both sides temporarily stopped, only the lines on the Furnace Body''s surface had become slightly dimmer. After barely resisting this attack from Patriarch Ma, Chen Fan''s body had also received a huge shock, and his internal organs seemed to have been deflected over, as he could not help but sigh in his heart. Core Formation Stage cultivators already have the right to be impudent, but I have not even reached Foundation Establishment. Although his performance was very domineering, Chen Fan knew very well that he still did not have the strength to fight against the Horse Armor Master. He was only borrowing the strength of the Ma Armor Master to guess how strong he was. Considering the period of his revival, merely a few months, for him to be able to withstand a single blow from a Core Formation Stage Ranker could already be considered to be pretty good. Of course, the Supreme Wu Tian would not be satisfied at all, as this was still far from his goal. This old man had thought that you had some kind of trump card. To act so arrogantly and arrogantly, it turned out that you were just an empty shell. You deserved your death. The Patriarch Ma sneered again and again. Previously, he was still a bit fearful, thinking that Chen Fan had some sort of backing. After all, it had been decades since he had last seen someone wantonly hurting someone in the Yuan Sect. Alas, the word might be more appropriate for you. Many people never know their own limitations. Chen Fan said softly. Before he had reached the Supreme Stage, he had never been afraid of the current Ancient Saint, let alone an emperor with such a small Qingshan Town. Brat, I think it''s better if I do it. This old man is too infuriating, I should be able to tie with him. Ohh, looks like you''ve hidden your strength well enough, to actually be able to fight even with a Core Formation Stage expert, I actually didn''t discover it. Chen Fan laughed, he was surprised by Deer God''s words, but with his identity, he did not think that Deer God would trick him. Tch, since when did trash like Core Formation Stage get the title of an expert? Deer God said in disdain. He was someone he had met before, if he really had to discuss temperament, it would be even more explosive than Chen Fan''s. Patriarch Ma, this matter started because of me, so I hope that you can let this senior go. Before even waiting for Patriarch Ma to reply, Yu Chan could not help but go up and beg for mercy. From the start, she already knew that Chen Fan was not her opponent, and did not want to implicate more people because of this. Little girl, this old man advises you to avoid getting in contact with this guy and he will push you into a pit of fire. To be able to live in the Patriarch Ma s, naturally he was extremely shrewd. If he continued to let Chen Fan off this easily and switched the topic to Yu Chan, wouldn''t that prove Young Master Ma''s crime? As the head of the family, he naturally could not allow this kind of thing to happen. However ¡­ Yu Chan panicked. She still wanted to say something, but was immediately interrupted by the former. It''s not that much of a problem, the Qingshan Town is still up to me, this person slandered my Yuan Sect''s reputation, the Grandson who injured me, I have to repay him with my life! Hearing this, a strong killing intent could be felt in the surroundings. Everyone could feel the cold wind blowing at them, causing them to be on the verge of splattering blood. If you really want this method, then just kill me first! Yu Chan cried as she wanted to rush to Chen Fan''s front, but she was stopped by an invisible force. It was impossible for the Patriarch Ma to let Yu Chan die in such a muddled manner before the slaughter was completed. Seeing that, Chen Fan became even more furious, previously, no matter how much the old fellow scolded, to him, it was like a dog barking. He did not take it to heart at all. Wasting his energy with such a person was practically wasting his time, but seeing Yu Chan''s actions, he had completely infuriated Chen Fan. He even felt that he, as a supreme being, was completely useless. Saving others failed, and in turn, he was threatened. He even wanted the little girl to protect him like this. What was going on? Why had it not been resolved yet? Just then, an aged voice sounded, and Chen Fan immediately withdrew his Dao Burning Furnace. Protector Su, how did you shock the old man? Yang Guan hurried to welcome him. So it turned out that Patriarch Ma was also here. I apologize for my disrespect. Ignoring Yang Guan''s smiling face, the Protector Su immediately cupped his hands towards the former, and the two were around the same age. When the Protector Su came, I did not welcome him, but it was my fault. Usually, Patriarch Ma would definitely express his goodwill with happiness. The power of a protector from the Yuan Sect was enough to subvert his huge clan''s foundation. Protector Su did not have such thoughts today, so he answered with a straight face. Protector Su also noticed that something was wrong and asked: Just now, this protector had waited for a long time, but Yang Guan still did not come to report. This protector was still thinking about why Yang Guan had to ¡­ The words came out abruptly. Protector Su suddenly caught a glimpse of Chen Fan''s face, and a familiar feeling surfaced in his mind. Tsk tsk tsk, in the end, it''s still the territory of Yuan Sect. A rock dropped from Chen Fan''s heart. He had arrived at his home ground. With a smile that was not a smile, and an old face that was vaguely angry, and a burning gaze that happened to meet Protector Su''s gaze, Chen Fan could roughly guess how shocked the latter was. C88 Heavens, what the hell did I just see? Protector Su''s heart thumped. He swore that he had never been in such a state of panic in his entire life and this was the first time he was seeing such a state. Protector Su is precisely this old fogey. Not only did he injure Young Master Ma and offend Old Patriarch Ma, he even spoke rudely and tried to slander our Yuan Sect! Seeing the abnormality of the former, Yang Guan hurriedly walked over and explained with a cold smile on his face. From his point of view, Chen Fan already had no way of surviving. After being targeted by the Patriarch Ma, even if he didn''t get targeted by this Lord Protector, it would be unforgivable if he didn''t die. Pow! A crisp slap sounded, and everyone thought that Chen Fan would be the one who suffered. Then, Yang Guan was flung out of the arena. Protector Su? Clutching his own face, there were definitely still five clear finger marks left on it. Yang Guan''s sneer froze, and his eyes filled with confusion. He didn''t even have the courage to ask. Get lost! The farther the better! If you let this old man see you again, go to hell! Protector Su''s face changed, he immediately roared, wishing that he could slap this brat to death. It''s fine if you want to court death, but why did you bring it along? It''s fortunate that I rushed over so quickly, otherwise, I wouldn''t have come to Qingshan Town. When Chen Fan had opened the holy cave, all the guards and protectors on duty had seen his miracle, so naturally, they had left a deep impression on him. Furthermore, in these few days, Sect Leader had sent people over multiple times to invite Chen Fan to a banquet. In fact, even the Third Elder had made Hu Mu acknowledge him as his grandfather. It was no exaggeration to say that the latter''s influence had rapidly risen to a level not inferior to that of an elder. A mystery that had not been solved for thousands of years was being suppressed by his Yuan Sect. His outstanding attainments in the Dao of formations, as well as his medical skills that failed to defeat the Five Poisons Sect and Divine Doctor Wang ¡­ Any one of them would be able to destroy the entire path of the Protector Su ¡ª As long as Chen Fan said it, the Sect Leader and the three elders would agree to it without hesitation. Compared to nurturing a Core Formation Stage Ranker, this fellow was simply too important. Seeing Protector Su lose his composure, everyone including Patriarch Ma were stupefied. They did not know what this was about. Why, did he start protecting his calves just like that? Chen Fan asked, his voice was not loud, but when it landed in Protector Su''s mind, it sounded like heavenly music. This was indeed his intention. He gave a loud shout to scare Yang Sheng away, but right now, he had been seen through by Chen Fan with a single sentence. In his mind, he completely panicked. The guy in front of him was definitely not someone he could afford to offend, and the position of Protector was almost up, why did he have to care about a small inner disciple? At most, he could just return those Spiritual Being s to him. Master Gu, Yang Guan has really made a fool of himself. Whether he get him to scram out of the Yuan Sect or be dealt with by the elders, I will listen to your words right now. Protector Su cupped his hands and said. A newborn calf was not afraid of a tiger. There were some calves with decent potential that could be watched over for a while. However, a person like this was not worth it for you to lower your status. Chen Fan''s voice rose by a few notches as he berated angrily, ''Could it be that you want to use the Third Elder to suppress me again?!'' Junior does not dare, it''s just that this little bastard is an inner disciple of my Yuan Sect after all, this old man does not have the authority ¡­ The Protector Su did his best to defend himself but only the elders were able to take away the inner sect disciples easily. However, when he felt Chen Fan''s cold gaze, his heart instantly cooled down. Ka-cha! * With another crisp sound, before the pitiful Yang Guan could even react, half of his shoulder was removed from his shoulder. His entire body collapsed onto the ground, looking like a lump of mud. But that was not the end. Protector Su extended a finger and directly poked at his lower abdomen, with incomparable speed, he disturbed the dantian inside. In the Master Gu, Yang Guan was arrogant and despotic, relying on his status as a disciple of his sect to do whatever he wanted on the Qingshan Town. Without being able to explain, Protector Su crippled Yang Guan''s cultivation level, and as punishment for that, the latter stood blankly on the spot, like a piece of wood. This old fellow insulted Yuan Sect''s reputation, offending the Patriarch. Shouldn''t the Protector Su be targeting Chen Fan, and kill him to maintain his prestige? All of these things happened too suddenly, catching Yang Guan off guard. How could Yang Guan''s cultivation be destroyed in just twenty odd years? Well, at an age when you''re older, you still have to be a bit more sensible. You''re much stronger than him. Whoosh! Seeing that Chen Fan''s expression had more or less eased up, Protector Su let out a long breath, and the remaining half of his heart could finally warm up. Patriarch Ma and the surrounding spectators were all petrified. The former''s state of mind, which had not fluctuated for a hundred years, had stirred up a monstrous wave in a short hour. This was a genuine protector of the Yuan Sect, a core strength of the North Domain First Sect s. If placed with any other profound strength, it would receive treatment not inferior to an elder''s, to the point of actually giving this old fellow the etiquette of a junior. Furthermore, he even wasted the inner sect disciple beside him without saying anything further ¡­ To the Qingshan Town cultivators who had always looked up to the Expert From Yuan Sect as a god, the shock and impact they had in their hearts could be imagined. Master Gu, I do not know what other orders you have, but this junior did not take good care of you, this is my dereliction of duty, if there is anything else I need, I will do my best to fulfill it. Although he did not know Chen Fan''s approximate age, and looked like a white-haired old man, Protector Su had no choice but to lower his status to the lowest. After all, Hu Mu had already called him grandfather for a few days. If he continued like this, he might even become brothers with the Third Elder. Furthermore, from Sect Leader''s side, he had to give Protector Su a hundred times the courage to act impudently in front of Chen Fan, to the extent that he did not even have the qualifications to be on the same level as him ¡ª ¡ª This fellow was even scarier than an elder! Ma Family is such a heinous crime, this old man doesn''t like them at all. Chen Fan opened his mouth once again and threw out a heavy bomb. This... A single Ma Family was nothing, but this family was related to the decline and death of the entire Qingshan Town. This old man knows that you don''t have the ability, go and tell Sect Leader, and send the message back exactly as it was, without changing a single word. Chen Fan said indifferently. His voice was not loud, but when it fell in Patriarch Ma''s ears, it was undoubtedly like a clap of thunder. No matter what, he never thought that Chen Fan would actually be able to speak directly with the, and judging from his attitude, what he said was not empty words. Although he had never heard of the name of this Master Gu, he could guess from the Protector Su''s reaction that an absolute upper class expert would die as easily as squishing an ant after taking down their Ma Family. Protector Su, this old man has one thing that I don''t understand, that unskilled Grandson has made a mistake, why must he take the blame for my Ma Family? Patriarch Ma was still trying to struggle, but unfortunately, no one paid attention to him. This Core Formation Stage expert was ignored, but he did not dare to casually attack like he did just now. If he could choose, Patriarch Ma would willingly make his most beloved Grandson take on all the responsibilities. Seeing how scared Protector Su was, how could Patriarch Ma not see that he had kicked a metal board, wanting to use the Young Master Ma to exchange for the survival of his family. You have to let them know even if they die, you go and tell them, when I pass by here in a few days, I do not wish to see the existence of another cultivator in Ma Family. Lifting his hand to signal Yu Chan to stand up, Chen Fan did not even glance at Patriarch Ma and instead spoke to him in a commanding tone. He believed that this guy would make a wise choice. There''s no need to be so ruthless, you can just reduce your Ma Family to the level of a normal mortal being. In view of Yu Chan''s situation, Chen Fan did not want to go all out either. It was only because of the patriarch and his grandson that this had nothing to do with the rest of the Ma Family''s clansmen. From an outsider''s point of view, Chen Fan knew clearly that the fact that the Young Master Ma was so arrogant in the town, the fact that he could commit murder in public was directly related to the protection of the family. If the Patriarch Ma could discipline him more, or even order his clansmen to restrict him, the scene that Chen Fan saw definitely would not have happened. Deadly crimes could be avoided, but they couldn''t escape from death. Using Ma Family to ruin the future of their entire clan was already the greatest punishment they could receive. It was natural that the enemy of the past, who was normally afraid of the flourishing Ma Family and did not dare to show his face, would make a move in''s place and torture them. This was all just asking for trouble. Wait a moment Master Gu, I will escort you back to the Sect. The Protector Su was also like the Protector Su, following closely behind Chen Fan. After causing such a mess, he naturally wanted to calm down the latter. No need, just do what you need to do. This old man knows the way. After saying that, Chen Fan quickly left. Looking at the back of the old man, Protector Su''s face turned unsettled, full of anger towards the few pig teammates behind him. Protector Su, what the hell is this! Unwilling to give up, Patriarch Ma turned to the former for help. The unforeseen event in just a few minutes had already exceeded the limit of his imagination. This old man is willing to cut off that little bastard''s hand. In the future, I am willing to pay two times as many years of tribute for my Yuan Sect. An old man around his own age had saved an extremely ordinary girl from the hands of the Young Master Ma, causing such a huge commotion. The Patriarch Ma personally acted to suppress them, and then the two Yuan Sect Warriors appeared. Surprisingly, this was the result of the hundred years of hard work in managing their businesses. This kind of thunder from a clear sky, it was hard for anyone to accept, it was good that Patriarch Ma did not faint on the spot. Go back and clean up your belongings, cripple everyone''s cultivation, and leave the Qingshan Town in three days. Do as I say, your Ma Family might have a way to survive. How could the Protector Su still have the mind to care about the Patriarch Ma? His heart was a mess, all causes and effects originated from the Ma Family, which would affect him later. After saying that, the Protector Su flicked his sleeves and left, leaving behind a completely dumbfounded Patriarch Ma. Even a fool could tell that the sky above Qingshan Town was going to change from time to time as well as the many onlookers discussing softly amongst themselves. C89 Chen Fan was even less likely to pay attention to such insignificant matters, and spent the next three days leisurely traversing through the Yuan Sect. During this period, several tens of elders and protectors had personally invited Chen Fan to their own home to take a seat, but he had rejected all of them. He had no interest in joining the Yuan Sect, let alone staying here for real. Senior, look at that red-crowned crane, it''s really intelligent, actually flapping its wings to signal to me! There was also the distant divine light, which had been descending from the east as the sun rose for the past few days. It was so beautiful! This was truly a fairyland on earth. Disciples who could cultivate in this place were truly too fortunate, no wonder Yuan Sect was called the number one Sect. Seeing the luxurious pavilion and the majestic Spiritual Peak, Yu Chan was excited. To Chen Fan, it was just a passing cloud. Over ten thousand years of life experience, seen the vicissitudes of life and the changes in the world, how many, to the end could not withstand the ravages of the years. Everything seemed to have a certain lifespan. Nothing could withstand the power of time. However, where was the end of the path? Chen Fan muttered to himself. After coming back to this familiar world, he had finally thought things through and gained a new understanding and understanding of cultivation. For example, the originally insufferably arrogant Supreme Wu Tian s, had all been subdued by a local tyrant in terms of Qingshan Town. Although a few elders were similar to Qian De and the rest, their overall strength was more than enough to crush Qing Xuan Sect. The enormous size of more than a hundred Protectors had formed the middle ranks with solid Yuan Sect. Perhaps there were factions fighting with each other, but it was still possible for the upper echelons to advance and retreat together. This was especially difficult to come by. In addition to the new blood of the young generation, Chen Fan was even able to see a few of them, and was even able to guarantee that within a few decades, their North Domain would be theirs. Once this batch of disciples grew up successfully, the dragon and phoenix amongst the top disciples would definitely be able to smoothly take over the position of elder. Furthermore, in the rear mountains where the Yuan Sect were considerably well-hidden, a residence specially set up for the Senior Expert, Chen Fan unintentionally spied on it, and discovered that there were still many powerful auras there. Even though they had hidden themselves for a long time, their vitality was still quite strong. It was just that the experts inside their Yuan Sect were very fast so they consciously gave way to the newcomers. If there really was a danger, then these hidden experts would be one of the biggest reserves of their Yuan Sect, and all of them would have the strength of a top-notch protector. It was not the least bit exaggerated to say that just by relying on the rear mountain, one''s Yuan Sect could easily contend against Qing Xuan Sect ¡ª This kind of sect that also carried the name of a transcendent power, but only had an empty air. Similarly, Chen Fan was not really here to sightsee. He was also thinking about the relationship between Qing Xuan Sect, as well as the way things would turn out in the future. Since they had chosen Qing Xuan Sect as the stepping stone for their rise, Chen Fan would definitely lead them to return to the peak of their past. Relatively speaking, Yuan Sect was destined to become an obstacle in his path. This was a problem that he had no choice but to face, or else he would really be too lazy to try and find out. A week''s time quickly passed. On the Third Elder''s Spiritual Peak, Sect Leader and a few other elders were present. How''s the handling of the Qingshan Town coming along? This old man knows that his temper is a little strange, so he shouldn''t be making things difficult for you right? In front of the Protector Su, Chen Fan was naturally a bit tougher. In front of the higher ups of the Yuan Sect, he more or less had to maintain his calm. I have already completely followed Master Gu''s suggestion, reduced my Ma Family to that of an ordinary clan, and even completely kicked them out of the Sect Domain. When he heard the news from Protector Su, he also almost slapped the latter to death. He was just thinking of how to make Chen Fan stay and try to rope him in at all costs, who would have thought that such a thing would happen at such a critical juncture? The sect has already gathered all of their protectors and scolded them harshly. This kind of thing is purely by chance, and disciples like Yang Guan are extremely rare. Another old man also said. His family was ugly and at any rate, he wanted to use his Sect as an excuse to get back at others. All of the crimes are because of his psychological distortion. In the future, you absolutely cannot appear in my Yuan Sect, it''s simply absurd. The Sect Leader had initially said so himself. As the number one sect in the North Domain, it had a good reputation and a good reputation. It could help to nurture a kind heart and put on a high hat like that, he was really not afraid of losing his tongue. After all, in the lies that Nangong Yi had weaved, Chen Fan had lived in seclusion within the Wilderness for many years. Sect Leader was extremely confident. As long as he said it in such a extravagant manner, he would definitely be able to keep Chen Fan here and help him choose a feeling expert that was not weaker than an elder for his Yuan Sect. In the end, he turned around and tried to snatch away the girl. Furthermore, his own disciple came out to protect him without any rules. This was slapping him in the face, the kind of naked slap that sounded like a slap. Oh right, there''s also that inner sect disciple called Yang Guan. This old man has to apologize to you all first, then there''s trouble. Chen Fan was expressionless, there was not even a hint of apology in his expression. Even his voice sounded somewhat stiff, and anyone who wasn''t blind would be able to see through his intentions. Seeing that the old man was being scolded, Protector Su could not hold back and took action, causing Yang Guan''s life, I will take responsibility for this matter. The words of the Master Gu were too heavy, Yang Guan was purely asking for it, his Sect imposed on himself, but he never expected that he would disappoint our hopes and trust. Hu Mu''s little life was still in Chen Fan''s hands, any normal person would have said that. That''s right, that fellow is simply a scum of my Yuan Sect. This old man has to thank Master Gu for helping us get rid of this poison seedling. The Sect Leader had the same attitude, and couldn''t wait to rope Chen Fan in and do everything in his power to quell the adverse effects of the previous storm. Well, let''s do it like this first. You guys can pay an additional twenty million Spiritual Stone. Hearing the answers of the few old fellows, Chen Fan was extremely moved in his heart. This was the true benefit of having the strength, even if he killed the inner sect disciples that they nurture, he wouldn''t need to take any responsibility. On the contrary, they had to reprimand Yang Guan viciously and continuously comfort him. If it were any other strong practitioner who did such a thing, the grass on their graves would probably be at least twenty feet tall. This old man has not been treated like this for the past hundred years. I was kind to begin with, but I was easily threatened by your disciples with their killing intent. Sect Leader:... Elders: As Top Rankers s of the Yuan Sect, they had always thought that they were tyrannical enough. There was never room for negotiation on matters concerning external affairs with the other forces. In any case, with the strength of their Sect here, they could either agree to it or send two elders to their doorstep at any time. No one would normally be willing to see the latter. Until today, after hearing what Chen Fan had said, they suddenly realized that this was what a true lion''s mouth truly meant. Master Gu, we have already punished the Patriarch Ma, so our Qingshan Town will not have any chance to advance anymore. This should be enough. Sect Leader tried to probe. It was also because he had fallen for Chen Fan''s unique ability that no one could compare to him in the entire Yuan Sect. Otherwise, he would have turned hostile long ago, this fellow was obviously going to extort and extort him. Master Gu, my Yuan Sect is also limited. A few days ago, I took out twenty million Spiritual Stone and it was rather tight. The elder in the hall also tried to persuade him, but the rest of the words came out because the elder was unable to keep a straight face. It was merely a slap on the face, and wasn''t even a scare at all. Furthermore, these few people had arrived here at the same time, which already expressed the guilt of Yuan Sect. Aside from the Sect Leader s of other transcendent powers, no one within the North Domain had ever been able to match up to her. Master Gu, I will personally take out another two million Spiritual Stone and treat it as a reward for you to treat Mu Er. The Third Elder had taken the initiative to smooth things over, and no one had ever made him make such a huge step back before ¡ª ¡ª Since the holy abode had already been opened, half of Hu Mu''s life was still in the air. Even if Sect Leader suddenly wanted Chen Fan to kill him, he would not hesitate to stand on''s side. Nothing was more important than fighting his own Grandson. If you kill a man and then take a knife and say sorry to him, what''s the use of pretending? Chen Fan''s face changed, he could not let go of such a good opportunity to rob people. If he were to make a mistake in this village, who knows when he would run into another similar shop. This... Sect Leader and the Third Elder were at a loss for words. This proved that it had only started to become vivid with Chen Fan''s help a week ago. That was because this was the accumulation of the entire Sect that spanned several thousand years, which could increase the accumulation of today''s Yuan Sect by several fold. Just by taking out a few Spiritual Being s, he would be able to cause a bloodbath in the outside world. In the end, he still did not want to place any more Spiritual Stone s on Chen Fan''s body, in case all of them went down the drain. What, you want to get over this matter? I have to compensate you, as long as there are no more than ten million Spiritual Stone here, my rules cannot be changed! secretly sneered. He had long since been prepared for this, the price of ten million Spiritual Stone was indeed a bit too high. If it was him, he wouldn''t be willing to give up even if it was himself. However, the reason why he wanted to say this was because he wanted to continue with the following conditions. He wanted to deceive the big one, so that he could make a big one. Only after he had made a big one out of it would he feel good. C90 After hearing that, the others did not have much to say, especially the Third Clan Elder who had a gloomy expression. He was currently wandering around, and because the Grandson could not keep his life, Chen Fan was exceptionally determined, and kept him in the center. Master Gu, don''t think that this old man has anything to say and it''s the direct truth. The fifth ranked elder could not hold himself back. His temper had always been explosive, and he was famous in the Yuan Sect for directly firing at Chen Fan. The Great Clan Elder was worried that he might poke into another problem and was about to stop him, but suddenly the Sect Leader sent him a gaze, signaling him not to move recklessly. This old man respects your medical skills and the attainments in formations, and has opened thousands of years of Void Tomb mysteries for our Yuan Sect, saving Hu Mu''s life. The thirty million pellets from before were even given by your own mouth, what kind of thing is it to go back on your words so quickly? He couldn''t possibly have to give away all his belongings because of the locksmith''s contribution, right? All right, as expected of Yuan Sect Elders, all of them were smart as ghosts, refuting Chen Fan back with just a few words. At first glance, it sounded like a couplet meeting. Master Gu, you are also a sensible person, why do you need to make things so difficult for my Yuan Sect? The Great Elder added. This time, it placed Chen Fan on the opposite side of morality. If he insisted on asking for the Spiritual Stone''s rewards, even his personality would be questioned. Let us put it fairly. The Master Gu did indeed receive an unpleasant treatment from the Qingshan Town. With a slight cough, Sect Leader stopped the other clan elders from moving. This show was already over, he still had thoughts of recruiting Chen Fan, it would be bad for both sides if he was too stiff. In addition, with the Third Elder''s share of Spiritual Stone, you can choose a cultivation technique from the treasury as our sect''s intentions. Two red-faced people and a white-faced man, both singing together. Their coordination was very high, the elder stood on the opposing side and spoke loudly to Chen Fan, intentionally or unintentionally occupying a higher moral position. In the end, the Sect Leader would explain everything and take the initiative to take another step back. Sigh, what a bunch of pedants. Why would this old man come here? I''m simply playing a lute to a dog! Chen Fan sighed, he activated Heavenly Heart Formula without any surprise, causing the few old people to become sullen, the stately clan elders were actually called dogs! It was fine if he was trying to play the lute, but Chen Fan was fine after being surrounded by them for a while. Using such a beast to compare them was intolerable, no one dared to do such a thing in the entire North Domain, as they ridiculed the higher ups of the Yuan Sect in front of everyone. However, he still rushed before Sect Leader and the others could become angry, Chen Fan calmly continued. The reason this old man suggested a condition of ten million Spiritual Stone was because when I heard that you all wanted me to stay in the Yuan Sect, I agreed to it in a slightly more tactful manner. As his voice fell, after a short period of silence, the few old fellows'' minds started to move, unaware that everything was within Chen Fan''s control. Master Gu, are you serious? Sect Leader''s interest was suddenly piqued. This was his real intention. Forget it, forget it. Rather than facing you indestructible fellows all day, living in Yuan Sect that can easily expose your murderous intent, this old man would rather return to the Wilderness and seek a quiet place. Chen Fan waved his hands and said impatiently. This was also his scheme, to use ten million Spiritual Stone s as bait to fish out the Sect Leader. No, no, no, Master Gu has misunderstood. If you really can stay in my Yuan Sect, the Void Tomb can also be opened to you, and we will all be family. The Great Clan Elder made a promise without even thinking. This was something that they had agreed on long ago, as long as one was an Elder Ranker, they could choose Spiritual Being s from the Void Tomb s. Heh heh, this old man has lowered his attitude, yet you all are trying to shirk it. What else do you have to say now? It really makes one''s heart chill. Chen Fan pretended to be angry and displayed his side of strength. Master Gu has to forgive us because Sect has been very heavy recently. This old man''s brain is almost muddled, how could I know the deep meaning behind your words. The Fifth Elder was able to bend and stretch, but after sensing Chen Fan''s original attitude, he immediately did a 360 degree change; it was extremely crisp and crisp. The reason why he kept rejecting Hu Mu just now, was mainly because Chen Fan didn''t have any intention of letting go. After he finished healing Hu Mu, he would immediately leave the Yuan Sect. Sect Leader and the clan elders were definitely not willing to suddenly request for millions in compensation on this condition, it was equivalent to giving it away for free. This old man is a common person, and the rules are based on vulgar definitions. Chen Fan was stunned, his expression indifferent. The Master Gu being able to join is my Yuan Sect a blessing! Fifteen million Spiritual Stone, moreover I can choose two of them from the Void Tomb. Sect Leader was extremely excited. To be able to obtain Chen Fan''s help, he had even thought that the remaining primordial Spell Formation still existed in the few dangerous situations that the North Domain was in. After borrowing the latter''s power to break it open, he was sure that the opportunities within would be beneficial to his Yuan Sect. Moreover, they were the first to be rude, and in addition to the flurry of ridicule, Sect Leader took the initiative to raise the reward of the Spiritual Stone, this price was worth it. Out of the twenty million Spiritual Stone, I want three that I want. Chen Fan''s mouth formed a curve, after planning for a few days, it was finally the time to harvest the fruits. Third Elder, what do you think? Without waiting for Sect Leader to speak, he immediately passed the words to the Third Elder. Just like Patriarch Ma, he also had a disappointing grandson. For Sect, as long as Master Gu can stay, this old man thinks that this condition is very appropriate, and it completely matches your status and abilities. The third elder gritted his teeth and endured the pain. Since he had said this, he decided to give up his right to choose. Only then would he be able to restore the peace of the other elders. You can''t say it like that, this old man can promise to become the Guardian of Yuan Sect and ask for my help if there''s anything I can do, but don''t count on me staying in the Yuan Sect forever, I don''t have such good fortune. Hearing that, the Sect Leader had a troubled face, he started to think about how to deal with the situation, he did not expect Chen Fan to have additional conditions. Taking the Spiritual Stone and leaving, hanging up as a reverend. Although there was something he needed to do, in the end, he was almost on the verge of success, but he wasn''t sure if it was worth it or not. Master Gu is too cruel to this old man ¡­ The Great Clan Elder wanted to advise again, but before he could finish, he was interrupted by Chen Fan. C91 Without discussion, this old man has observed for a week that this place really doesn''t suit me. His voice was not loud, but it was incredibly clear. Moreover, it was something that could not be doubted or resisted. In other words, the few elders naturally understood that Chen Fan was still tangled up on what had happened to his Qingshan Town. After a short exchange of views, this was the only way to proceed. First, they had to establish a relationship with each other, and in the future, there would be plenty of opportunities to advance to the next level. The main reason was that his Yuan Sect did not lack these Spiritual Stone. If he gave it to them, it would not have much of an impact on the operation of his Sect. After all, he had just made a windfall. Hahaha, this sect is very happy, and we welcome Master Gu to our Yuan Sect! On behalf of the elders, I congratulate Master Gu on his arrival! The few clan elders all stood up, holding their hands together and laughing, Chen Fan endured his laughter, if the plan went well, it would be about time for them to cry. As long as you promise me, don''t let that kind of accident happen again. I''m too old to put up with it. Sect Leader and a group of elders went to prepare the Spiritual Stone with satisfaction. They thought that they had successfully recruited a strong expert, but in that instant, Chen Fan retracted his rage, which had never been felt before. After some careful calculations, he found that his net worth had already reached over fifty million. The majority of it was the wool that he had cut off from his Yuan Sect. Each of them was willing to accept, since Chen Fan did not have any forced methods, with his current strength, he would not be able to snatch them from any of the elders. After that, he started to prepare to treat Hu Mu''s injuries. The Third Elder was already prepared for a long time. Even though he had already passed the portion of the Void Tomb to Chen Fan, he did not dare complain at all. If the latter were to be distracted and accidentally let his hands slip by and cause Hu Mu to suffer some other illness, it would be something that his old arms and legs would not be able to handle. Grandfather, I''ll have to trouble you again. The pitiful fellow was not even happy for a few days, yet he was once again placed beside a high temperature jade bed that was at least a few hundred degrees in temperature. His head was revealed, and it was filled with pain as he respectfully called out to Chen Fan. Sigh, you are truly obedient, you are more and more like my Grandson. As long as grandfather is happy, I am your biological Grandson. While holding the Yuan Sect Spiritual Stone in one hand and enjoying the rich remuneration, they would also curse and ''play the zither with dogs''. The grievances within his body had not been completely cleaned up by Chen Fan in the first place, and in this week''s time, he showed signs of having returned, which actually spread to more than half of his body. The 72 key acupuncture points had already fallen to more than fifty points. If they were delayed any longer, they would probably become the same appearance as before, covered in black qi. Once the Heavenly Heart Formula was unleashed, a bizarre energy undulation surrounded Chen Fan''s body, and quickly gathered near his hands. All of these were for the sake of showing off, to cause the Third Clan Elder to be dazzled, and he would naturally think that Chen Fan had used a great amount of strength. Numerous Seal danced in the air, the air was filled with dense Spiritual Energy energy waves, as well as an obscure aura. And Chen Fan who had fully displayed his skills, also frowned. He tried to lock it even more tightly, but his expression was grave and his ten fingers hadn''t stopped moving yet. Master Gu, do you still need to instill more life force into them this time? The Third Elder took the initiative to ask. Although he didn''t know where the root of his problem was, it was always right to have more life on his mind. The last time, the Purple Gold Ginseng was still hidden deep within his meridians, so it couldn''t be used anymore. Chen Fan said. It was not that he pitied Patriarch Three, but there was an even larger net waiting for him. Fishing slowly, the days are long, let out long line to have good harvest. Adding on the Talisman floating in mid air, had transferred all of them into his Heavenly Spirit Cover. The rest of his body was covered by the high temperature and his skin was burnt red. Not long after, strands of black mist started to seep out of Hu Mu''s body. Then, he gathered all of it into his own palm, and used the Heavenly Heart Formula to refine it directly, turning it into the pure energy in his dantian. However, in the Third Elder''s eyes, it meant that the Master Gu had sacrificed himself and sacrificed himself to cure his Grandson''s strange illness. He needed to rest for a few days first. During this half month, he didn''t need to do much activity. The meridians that had just been repaired were still weak and could not bear to be worn down. Chen Fan reminded him, it was necessary to bury this seed, in two days he would still have to use this brat, and not let him casually leave the Yuan Sect. Thank you, grandpa, you''ve worked hard. Hu Mu''s small mouth was actually very sweet, to the point that Chen Fan was overjoyed. Rest, this old man will come again another day to see you, these fireworks can be withdrawn. Chen Fan waved his hand, and immediately left, minding his own business as he returned to the small courtyard the Third Elder had arranged for him. What was worth mentioning was that a person like him, who originally enjoyed peace and quiet, was most willing to stay in a secluded courtyard and peacefully cultivate, standing apart from the world. However, just as he stepped through the door, a figure rushed over and stood respectfully by the side. Senior. How many times have I said this? Don''t call me senior ¡­ Chen Fan was extremely annoyed, ten thousand years ago, he had already disliked this title, how could it be as pleasing to the ear as Zhi Zun. Now that he had not reached that level yet, it would be inconvenient for him to be careless. However, he could not reveal his true identity at the moment. Once he was exposed, he would be in trouble. Senior saved Chan''er''s life, and this kindness will never be repaid in this life. I have already decided to serve you by your side, so naturally, you have to act like a servant. Yu Chan, on the other hand, had a point. Speaking of which, she was also a tough girl. As long as she believed in something, she would have to put in all her effort to accomplish it. It could also be said that she was stubborn. When they were surrounded by Young Master Ma and the rest, they did not hesitate to fight with their lives at all and knocked their heads against the wall. If you have nothing else, you should go to the martial arena and use Domain Gate to head to the Hua Ding Sect. He had already greeted the Third Elder and notified Nangong Xuan in advance. He could not let this girl stay by his side anymore. The next few days, there would definitely be a large disturbance within the Yuan Sect, he did not want to be implicated by the former, and so he had quickly found a good place. Senior, you ¡­ Hearing this, Yu Chan''s expression immediately changed. Her beautiful face was full of panic as she lightly frowned. She seemed to be on the verge of tears, making people''s hearts break. C92 Chen Fan had already expected this, why did he interrupt him when he opened his mouth? You don''t have to be anxious, it''s just that I have a good relationship with the Holy Maiden of Hua Ding Sect, and my Yuan Sect is not peaceful. I''ll go there to take shelter for two days, and I''ll catch up later. As they talked, Chen Fan felt that something was wrong. He was clearly the savior of this little miss, and now he seemed to owe her something. Did something happen at the Yuan Sect? She was not ignorant, but she was actually unusually intelligent, and was able to understand the deep meaning behind Chen Fan''s words. You don''t have to worry about that. Nangong Xuan will explain to you. Chen Fan opened the door himself and felt that it would be better to send Yu Chan to the training grounds. He really did agree with Deer God''s words, send Buddha to the west, and be a good person to the end. From the moment he shouted at Young Master Ma, it was impossible to ignore this little girl. Alright, I''ll listen to senior. You must take care of your safety. Yu Chan nodded, knowing that she would be a burden to him. Just like this, the two of them, one in front and one behind, quickly walked to the martial arena. When they saw Chen Fan''s figure from afar, some disciples had already prepared their Domain Gate. Go, go, remember to find Nangong Xuan, and don''t listen to anyone. Chen Fan warned his one last time. He waved his hand and watched as the beautiful figure disappeared before him. He heaved a sigh of relief. At least he had solved this problem. Now, he had nothing to worry about. Come on, let''s go. Let''s enjoy ourselves in the autumn. Feng Qingyun, this old man has just divined that today is the best day to travel and collect treasures. The Deer God laughed, he had already set his sights on the Void Tomb''s treasure. Chen Fan:... This old fellow was sensitive to these things all day, it was typical for him to not show any mercy when he saw rabbits, and if he had any problems with his cultivation, he would not see anyone for a long time, and he had to bring a Spiritual Being out. He even had some doubts that if this continued, if he wanted to invite the former to help in the future, he would have to pay a sum of money. If they waited another two days, they would be able to slow down. If they were in such a hurry, it might cause the Third Elder and the others to become suspicious. Chen Fan said. Along the way, there were still some disciples greeting him once in a while. Naturally, they all had happy smiles on their faces and responded with a chuckle. They were friendly with him. But who would have known that even the true thoughts in Chen Fan''s heart, were pondering about how to plunder the benefits they obtained from their Sect. Facing all those excited little faces one after another, even he felt that it was a little unreasonable. Why are you waiting? Since you got the position of the Guardian, you might as well strike the iron while it''s hot and pick out two high grade herbs from the Void Tomb. Then, you can refine them in Yuan Sect on the spot. The Deer God said impatiently. He and Chen Fan belonged to the same line, and both of them wanted the latter to obtain more opportunities, so that he could quickly recover his strength. That was true. During the refining process, if they still needed any external assistance, those elders would definitely not sit idly by. If he thought about it carefully, this was the same logic. There was no need to delay any longer. On the contrary, if there was anything else he needed while cultivating the medicinal herbs, it would be a pity not to make good use of the great natural treasury like Yuan Sect. Chen Fan did not return to the Third Elder''s Spiritual Peak, but instead walked straight towards the Void Tomb. The news quickly reached the ears of the higher ups of the Yuan Sect of the Sect Leader. When Chen Fan arrived outside the stone door of the Void Tomb, the Great Clan Elder was already waiting for him. It was not a special event. To be accompanied by this respected Great Elder showed how much importance he placed on the new great reverends. Calming his mind, Chen Fan walked over and cupped his hands. Hehe, I still need to trouble First Elder to go over. Master Gu is too serious, your words are the real deal to this old man. The First Elder laughed heartily. Clearly, he was quite enjoying it. In order to help heal my Grandson, I have exhausted a lot of my cultivation. If not, this old man would not be in such a hurry. Chen Fan shook his head, pretending to sigh. Hearing this, the Great Clan Elder was surprised in the beginning, it had only been a day since they had joined Yuan Sect, how could there be an extra Grandson, but he immediately remembered about Hu Mu''s matter. Sigh, in this old man''s opinion, these youngsters are too noisy. They are always tormenting themselves, and I don''t know where they got that appearance from, but it would be too much for Master Gu to trouble himself with. From his original intention, the Great Clan Elder looked down on Hu Mu. The latter did not have a good reputation in Yuan Sect, and was a typical playboy. Relying on his grandfather''s pampering, he could do whatever he wanted. The other elders could not say anything, but today, the Great Elder had hinted for them to do so. Coincidentally, Hu Mu and my dear Grandson who had passed away many years ago resembled each other slightly. Chen Fan said faintly. Back then, he could deceive all of them, Sect Leader and the others. The Great Elder''s eyes revealed a strange light. He had already heard of this before. The reason why Chen Fan had specifically stayed on the Third Elder''s Spiritual Peak was because Hu Mu had a good face. He never thought that he would be able to obtain confirmation from his own mouth. There are some things that have already been predestined for a long time in the underworld. It seems that this old man would like to congratulate Master Gu for filling in the gaps in the later years, hahaha. As the Chief Elder of the current number one sect, his mind was much more lively. With Hu Mu''s relationship, the Third Elder''s position in the sect would definitely rise by a lot in the future. Everyone could see just how important Chen Fan was. This was equivalent to the descent of an ally from the heavens, and in comparison, saving Hu Mu''s life didn''t even matter. It could be seen that the structure of the Yuan Sect would definitely change in the future. The Third Elder was right at the center of attention, while Chen Fan''s skills were great and the influence of the strong alliance could not be underestimated. Whatever, at my age, there''s nothing I can''t see. I''m just concerned about my Grandson, that''s all. When he said these words, Chen Fan was mostly filled with emotion. With his many years of experience, when it came to experience, he was much more profound than the former. Reverend Gu, I don''t know what kind of Spiritual Being you want, but our Yuan Sect s have accumulated for at least five generations, so we will definitely be able to reap some rewards. As he said that, the Head Elder also cast a spell and opened the stone door. Ever since the seal had been opened by Chen Fan several thousand years ago, the Yuan Sect had undergone a reformation of the stone door, so as to not allow the former to find a loophole. Normal people would need a new key even if they wanted to change the lock core, let alone the Void Tomb that had accumulated for more than a thousand years and possessed the entire foundation of their Sect. They walked in and looked around. It was no different from any other Scripture Pavilion in the Sect. The only difference was that the great hall was transformed into a cave, with rows and rows of wooden shelves erected within. Relatively speaking, the Spiritual Being above were of a lower grade, and the truly good things were placed on the two sides of the cave walls. Moreover, a majority of the Spiritual Being were emitting a gentle light. When hundreds and thousands of lines gathered together, it was easy to imagine how astonishing the daytime light scene was. As long as these Spiritual Being remained, they would be continuously illuminated by the divine light. If they could stay here and cultivate for a long period of time while feeling the unique dao halos, their progress would definitely be extremely fast. However, Chen Fan realized that he was overthinking it. In order to prevent the medicinal power from leaking, every single Spiritual Being was bound by a small scale Spell Formation. As they continuously gathered spirit energy, they were also isolating them from the world. If an outsider didn''t know about the existence of the Void Tomb, even if they walked to the door, they wouldn''t notice anything abnormal. Tsk, tsk, tsk. We''ve already agreed that each of us will take one. As for the other one, you have to discuss it with me! Deer God was extremely excited, he almost wanted to rush out and eat the herbs. No matter what, he is still the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao. Chen Fan reminded, he tried his best to suppress his emotions, so as to not be blinded by the divine flowers, and slowly picked one. This Three Thousand Year Old Black Spirit Fats had a miraculous effect on cultivators with Nascent Infant and higher, especially towards the improvement of Spiritual Consciousness s. This object''s name was the Phoenix Blood Stone and I heard that it was stained with the true Phoenix Profound Artifact. Even though I don''t know whether it was real or fake, it has been circulating in the records of the Sect for a long time. The Great Clan Elder continuously spoke, his tone containing no lack of arrogance. This was the greatest confidence a Expert From Yuan Sect possessed, since any one of them could cause the outside world to fight over them with all their might. There was also the Ghost Orchid Heart. If it was used as a main ingredient to refine the Unbreakable Orchid, it could even increase the probability of success during tribulation! Cough cough, has Great Elder forgotten something? All these years, this old man has been hiding in the Wilderness. Chen Fan cleared his throat twice. He had seen all sorts of spirit plants and herbs, he just wanted to calm down and find the one he liked the most. Uh, I was careless. Master Gu just left it at that. The Great Elder was stunned for a moment. It was rare for him to be unable to muster any anger. Even when the Void Tomb was opened, it was basked in Chen Fan''s glow. If the latter did not come with Yuan Sect, he would not even have the chance to stand here, so what was there to brag about. He silently followed behind Chen Fan. Although he said that they were going to accompany him, in truth, his main goal was still to monitor the situation. Everything within the Void Tomb were related to the background of the Yuan Sect, he could not let anyone bring them away casually. Sigh, I am really done for. When did I become so interested in these trash? My mental state is indeed getting worse with each passing day. In the past, as a Supreme Wu Tian, other than true divine medicine, no other Spiritual Being would even enter Chen Fan''s eyes. It was one thing for it to be of a low grade. However, the medicinal strength contained within it was insignificant, and would not be of any help to him at all. It was not as abundant as the energy contained in a single strand of hair. As he walked, his gaze would occasionally sweep across the two sides of the Void Tomb. Chen Fan tried to adjust his state of mind as much as possible. Otherwise, there would be no way for them to recover their Supreme Stage in the future. Those who spent their time in the trash, and were still feeling pleased with themselves because of this, would be too embarrassed to relate to that word. C93 After all, Master Gu is not an ordinary person. For him to be able to maintain such indifference towards so many precious Spiritual Being, it really makes this old man ashamed. The Great Clan Elder, who was following behind, was surprised. A week ago, when he first entered the Void Tomb, his eyes were filled with the splendor of millions of stars. Of course, Sect Leader and the other elders were not much better off. Some of them had lost their composure and some of them were staggering. On the other hand, with Chen Fan being so calm, there was no change from the look in his eyes to the expression on his face. It wasn''t that Chen Fan was knowledgeable, but other than this part, in reality, he was also engaged in an intense debate within the Zifu Space. Inside the cave, the Spiritual Being were simply too bright. Deer God liked every single one of them as he continuously called out in his heart. In other words, he did not have the true strength from his past, and was temporarily unable to borrow the Heavenly Energy from the Heavenly Dao. Otherwise, this Void Tomb would have been taken away. It really made people doubt whether he was the fake incarnation of the heavens, or how Cao Rui mistreated him in the first place. Such a big fuss did not sound like he was trying to fool Chen Fan at all. Brat, that stone, this old man knows this thing. It is known as the highest quality Extreme Spirit Ice Crystal below Saint Weapons! It would only be appropriate to use ordinary cold energy. If he just wanted to wait until winter arrived, that would be great. Chen Fan replied indifferently. The priceless Extreme Spirit Ice Crystals could be seen everywhere in his mouth like cabbages. There was nothing he could do about it. He could not just let it go like this. He had to at least wander around the entire Void Tomb first. When that Gentian Tree matured in the future, it would be able to produce at least a hundred fruits, and if all of them were added together, they would be no weaker than a divine medicine! The Gentian Tree has only matured recently. If you want the result, you will have to wait for more than two thousand years. I''m afraid your family members don''t have the skills to do so. Chen Fan ridiculed, in his opinion, this kind of thing was the most useless, flashy and unrealistic. It would take close to seven to eight thousand years for a seed to fully bear its fruit. It would be better to spend a bit more time to nurture it into a divine medicine. The most important thing was that no one could live that long. It was not only their predecessors who had planted trees to enjoy the shade. It would probably take more than ten generations of disciples of the younger generation to enjoy the bliss of their ancestors. How can you say that, to actually curse me, just as Deer God was about to explode with anger, he unintentionally caught a glimpse of a jewel embedded in the wall. "Aiya, aiyo, this is also a good item. I''ve collected sun and moon essences for over a thousand years ¡­" In the end, Chen Fan no longer wanted to explain anything and could no longer be bothered with him. If this old fellow were to help his Yuan Sect to check the background of the Void Tomb, he would definitely die from happiness. Just as he was about to turn around and start again, he caught a glimpse of a stone in the corner of his eyes. Amongst the many Void Tomb that were surrounded by rare treasures, the appearance of this thing was rather sudden. If it was only a part of the cave, it would not be a big deal. Although the Void Tomb had been meticulously taken care of, no one else had come in for thousands of years, so it was normal for a piece of the stone wall to fall. However, this stone was still placed at the lowest level of the wooden shelf, and was obviously classified as a Spiritual Being, which was not normal. Grand Elder, this thing is? Chen Fan pointed to the strange rock. It looked extremely ordinary, with not a single speck of light in it, which could link him and the Spiritual Being. At most, it was just a relatively ugly stone, oddly-shaped, with no shape to describe it, only a possible explanation ¡ª ¡ª the result of Yuan Sect senior''s slip. This item is nameless. This old man doesn''t know what its origin is either. The Great Elder paused for a moment before continuing. I heard that the second generation ancestor obtained this from a certain Ancient Saint''s tomb, and later on she viewed it as a treasure. You haven''t studied anything? The more Chen Fan listened, the more spirited he became. He was very interested in this kind of thing. Especially when he dug it up in the tomb. One must know that he was a person of the same type and had special feelings for it. This rock was strange, and it did not have any reaction to external forces. Whether it was Spiritual Consciousness or if it was refined with ice and fire, it could not do anything to him. The Great Clan Elder was also helpless, it was just that these records were left behind by the Void Tomb before the seal of the Void Tomb. So it''s like that ¡­ Yet another thing that caused everyone in Yuan Sect to be at a loss for what to do. That was indeed quite impressive ¡­ Chen Fan muttered to himself, while the Great Clan Elder felt awkward. He knew that this fellow had to speak in such a manner because he was known to the outside world as the dignified First Sect. His power and influence was limitless and Chen Fan had even bumped into two troublesome objects that were difficult to deal with. He could roughly understand why this strange stone was still placed inside the Void Tomb. It did not react to any external forces, which was already very unusual. It was truly just an ordinary stone. With the strength of these elders, they could easily be crushed into fine powder. How could they not be able to figure it out? Curious, Chen Fan bent down and observed the strange rock. He continuously covered it with his palm and Spiritual Consciousness, and similarly, he did not give anything back. The Great Elder, however, had no expression on his face. After that, he subconsciously activated the Heavenly Heart Formula. He did not know why, but ever since he woke up, he relied on this technique. He never expected that there would be a special reaction, so after the Heavenly Heart Formula activated, Chen Fan felt like his divine eye was instantly opened, seeing through the interior of this strange stone. He actually saw a bizarre scene of stars, numerous and complicated, scattered in the void, flickering with light from time to time. It was a very beautiful scene. How was this possible? Even Chen Fan was surprised. How could such a small piece of stone contain a complete Star Domain? Master Gu, did you get anything? The Great Elder asked, hoping for no response. Embarrassed and ashamed, I only have a bit of attainments in the Dao of Formation. Chen Fan shook his head and asked Deer God in his mind. Can you tell what this is? It was a good thing anyway, who cares what it was. The Deer God said carelessly, as if he was not responsible at all. This Spiritual Being is your right, so be it. Chen Fan took out his trump card and had been waiting for a long time. He had the initiative. For the sake of these few Spiritual Being, it was not enough to force the Deer God to reveal himself. Deer God:... Brat, you''re ruthless! Helpless, he turned his attention to the strange rock. Separated by Chen Fan''s Spiritual Consciousness, he paid attention to the overall situation of the stone. At the same time, he carefully searched through his distant memories. After informing the Deer God of what he saw, Chen Fan even took the initiative to divide one of the Spiritual Consciousness up for the old fellow to see. He slowly paced around the area, his eyes never leaving the strange rock. From time to time, he would touch it with his hands, pretending to be hesitating. The Great Elder, who was accompanying them, did not say anything, but there was contempt in his eyes. In his opinion, the former was still not giving up. He thought that by opening the Void Tomb s, he would be able to solve all the mysteries within the Yuan Sect. Come to think of it, this thing has a lot to do with Expert From Yuan Sect misunderstanding about you. Half a quarter of an hour later, Deer God finally opened his mouth. If he were to get serious, in terms of the profoundness of his knowledge, there was no other person in the entire continent that could match him. These words would naturally carry a lot of weight. What do you mean? Could this have something to do with the Way of Medicine? Chen Fan was even more curious. The medical methods he had displayed in front of the elders of the Yuan Sect were mostly related to this, and he had even humiliated two Divine Doctors. You brat, why are you so unenlightened?! Deer God woke him up. If he could only save Hu Mu, even Sect Leader would not be alarmed, let alone obtaining this offering as well as the generous rewards of tens of millions of Spiritual Stone. This thing contains a Dao of array formation? Chen Fan continued to ask. Even with his eyesight, he was unable to discern anything from it, adding the various abnormalities of his Yuan Sect, this object must definitely be of an extraordinary rank. But Deer God was unwilling to say more, there was no need to explain too much. This rock is mine, and you''ll have to take it with you, anyway. Uh, okay. Chen Fan pondered for a moment. Originally, with the old fellow''s unreliable nature, he would definitely have hesitated even more. Considering the existence of the magical star field, there was a good reason for it. He waved his hand and the strange stone was put back into the Storage Bag. The First Elder was stunned when he saw Lin Dong''s action. He did not expect that there was really a choice. However, he still had to confirm it. Did Master Gu want this strange nameless stone? That''s right, this stone is quite interesting. Since there are still two more chances, let me look at something else. Chen Fan laughed, his face was filled with indifference. Although he ridiculed them, the Great Clan Elder did not speak further. He wished that Chen Fan could get some more useless things and keep them as if they were treasures. From what he knew, Chen Fan must have broken the seal of the Void Tomb and received continuous treatment within the Yuan Sect. His self-confidence grew at an unprecedented rate and he actually still wanted to continue breaking the mystery of the strange stone. With this starting point, Chen Fan''s horizons were opened, and not long after, he selected a spiritual plant that was not weaker than the Purple-Gold Ginseng. Tsk, tsk, tsk. I thought I would never see Jin Manta again after so many years of searching. Chen Fan laughed happily as he held it in his hand, as if he could still feel a bit of the divine light. Similarly, a similarly unremarkable little flower only emitted a bit of fluorescence on its surface. On its leaves, however, there were some special veined patterns that were specifically used to distinguish the rank of a flower. C94 No matter what kind of Pill it was, the pollen from Jin Man Tuo''s pill refinement process was able to be raised to a whole new level. It could be said to be extremely heaven-defying. It was precisely because of this effect that Jin Man Tuo was once reputed to be an alchemist''s disaster. A Pill could even successfully obtain a few pellets under the help of the pollen. The main reason was that this herb could not only raise one''s cultivation, Moreover, it had already disappeared thousands of years ago. This might even be the last plant of the continent which coincidentally fell into Chen Fan''s hands. Congratulations to Master Gu. If Jin Manta was properly groomed, it would soon expand into a spiritual field. The Great Clan Elder felt awkward, he had initially fallen for Jin Man Tuo and wanted to plant his own Spiritual Peak, but he had not had the time to do so yet. To a certain extent, the value of the Golden Man was much higher than any other herb of the same level, and could even be crushed. After being taken away by Chen Fan, it was a huge loss to his Yuan Sect. The next step was the qualification to use the Deer God s. The old fellow had shouted ferociously before, but when he reached the critical point, he was extremely cautious. Chen Fan accompanied them as they walked a few rounds back and forth among the Void Tomb. He was not satisfied with any of them, as they all shook their heads. No, the things you looked at just now are actually quite good. For example, the Extreme Spirit Ice Crystal. An entire hour passed, not only was Chen Fan impatient, the Great Clan Elder was also about to urge him. If even you can pick that strange stone and the Golden Man, I can''t be worse than you. Just you wait, I can definitely crush you. The Deer God was filled with interest, but Chen Fan''s interest was not great, the Great Clan Elder behind him had the guts to attack him, and even he himself only had two qualifications, but this fellow was actually so greedy, and did not plan to let go. Hey, what am I saying? There must be a treasure, and it''s better than your crappy rock. After a while, he finally heard a surprised cry from the Deer God. Chen Fan: That tattered stone was something that you personally recognized ¡­ Looking in the direction of the Deer God, Chen Fan saw that he had picked up a Jade Chip, which was not the expected Spiritual Being or medicinal herb. However, this Jade Chip was also shockingly ordinary. It was one thing if it did not have any fluorescent light, but there was even a crack, which was incredibly dim. If the Jade Chip and the strange stone were put together, it would actually feel nothing out of the ordinary, and then, both of them were chosen by Chen Fan. Master Gu has good eyesight. This Jade Chip was left behind by my first Yuan Sect ancestor, and it has been engraved with a transcendent divine art. Many seniors used this technique to advance into the highest realm. The Grand Elder was secretly delighted. He thought to himself, "This fellow sure has a unique eye for trash." Wait a minute, you said no one succeeded... But this Jade Chip is still here? Chen Fan asked, this was not what a fool meant, it was not as profound as the cultivation of the Deer God. This is indeed the case, the three sacred arts recorded within the Jade Chip is the highest level cultivation technique of my Yuan Sect, a portion of it was previously spread out, and was cherished by the strongest elders and elders throughout the generations. Although the Great Clan Elder said that, for some reason, Chen Fan felt that it was weird. The Great Clan Elder must be hiding something. Everyone knew what it was like to be a Void Tomb, there was no need to treat it as a secret that was not known to the public. No, no, no, Master Gu might not know, but there were indeed many people who cultivated the three sacred arts in Sect, but they were all incomplete, and the true complete part had to be inside this Jade Chip. In order to make Chen Fan believe it and take the Jade Chip away, the Great Clan Elder had disobeyed his wish and spoke nonsense. It was said that the three sacred arts were jointly created by several Ancient Saint s. After the later generation of disciples cultivated it to the pinnacle, they even possessed a portion of the mighty strength of those experts! This sentence was quite tempting. If it were anyone else, they would definitely agree to it and impatiently ponder it for a while. To be able to wield the remnant power of three Ancient Saint s, in this era where Saints did not exist, was simply a symbol of invincibility. But to Chen Fan, these were far from being all that shocking. It was not like he had never seen the might of a Ancient Saint before; Moreover, although the power of the Ancient Saint was mystical, it was still a beautiful dream. Before reaching that realm, there was no way to use the corresponding power. Not to mention that he was relying on some sort of magical technique, but from the sound of it, he knew that the Grand Elder was just using a small piece of cloth. Who knows what other secrets he might have. Kid, this old man is very treacherous. I''ll just put it in a good light for you. It''s impossible for anyone to successfully cultivate this set of three sacred arts! Deer God scolded and retorted from within the Zifu Space, firmly rejecting the Great Elder''s words. He had read quite a few ancient books on Sect in the past few days, but there didn''t seem to be any records of this technique. After hesitating for a while, Chen Fan asked back. It was very necessary to get more information from the Great Clan Elder, the latter''s abnormal behavior was already very strange. This... Indeed, the Great Clan Elder never thought that Chen Fan would say such a thing, and thoughts quickly raced through his mind. It was precisely because of the uniqueness and power of the Three Sacred Arts that countless geniuses had cultivated for a long time, and basically no senior had reached the Mastery Stage. Just a portion of the incomplete arts was enough to smoothly raise to the Nascent Infant Stage, which showed how powerful the complete Three Holy Arts was. He was indeed worthy of being the Chief Elder. Originally, ten thousand people despised this useless cultivation technique, but now he could even speak of it in such a mystical manner. In the end, Chen Fan took away the three sacred arts as he wished. He could even imagine how much contempt the Great Clan Elder had for him, but he naturally did not take it to heart. Before leaving the Void Tomb, the Great Clan Elder had especially given him a Storage Bag. Previously, Sect Leader had repeatedly declined that there weren''t that many Spiritual Stone, and now, he was sending them over. After a moment of gratitude, Chen Fan quickly returned to the Third Elder''s Spiritual Peak. There were tens of millions of Spiritual Stone in his hands, so why was he so impatient to refine them? When he sat down, he was still the same Spell Formation who had casually set up a concealment array at the entrance. When he agreed to be the offering under Yuan Sect, he took the initiative to slowly turn towards Sect Leader and the others. If there was anything urgent, maybe the Third Elder would just push open the door and enter. When he sees Chen Fan, things would be bad. What is so amazing about these three sacred arts? Holding the Jade Chip in his hand, Chen Fan frowned, he could not understand no matter how he thought about it. If others were to obtain this cultivation technique, they would have to immediately think about how to cultivate it to an even higher level. This was a normal thought. However, he was carefully recalling which Ancient Saint there used to be, to actually have nothing to do, and joined together to create the Three Holy Arts. C95 Before he fell into deep sleep, Chen Fan had many old friends and friends. Most of them were experts of the same realm, but he had never heard of anyone planning to create a cultivation technique. Didn''t you hear what the old man said, No no no, what I mean is, why is there no one who can cultivate to mastery? Other than the few Saints who were confused, Chen Fan was also very curious about this point. It had already been more than a thousand years since Yuan Sect occupied the throne of the First Sect s. The young disciples that they had attracted could completely represent the top level of the entire North Domain. But even so, he was still unable to overcome the Three Saint Techniques. With the Third Elder''s secretive attitude, it was obvious that the people who came in contact with this technique had suffered a great setback. Normal people would definitely not be able to succeed. At most, they would only be able to get involved in the basics and would never be able to delve any further. The power of a Saint was not something that ordinary people could afford to pry into. The boss disdainfully said. What he had his eyes on was this cultivation technique and not the so-called geniuses that cultivated the Three Sacred Arts that Great Elder had mentioned. Anyone who had a rough understanding of their own Dao and knew of the three sacred arts would not be able to waste time and energy on it. In the eyes of the boss, all these attempts were just a bunch of idiots. Doing things without any effort had nothing to do with being a genius at all. Oh, that''s true. The realm of Ancient Saint has completely surpassed the limits of what ordinary cultivators can reach. It requires sufficient experience and accumulation. Chen Fan had truly experienced it, so naturally, he had a deep understanding of it. Even if he wanted to reach the peak of the world again, he would have to come up with a long-term plan. Moreover, there were no other accidents, such as taking a backseat. If one could really use this kind of cultivation technique to help others control the power of the Ancient Saint, their Cultivation Realm would not have dropped to this level. For the same reason, it was possible that Yuan Sect had already slaughtered their way to the Zhongzhou. Just think about how terrifying it was to be able to casually raise Ancient Saints s within the Sect. The reason why every Ancient Saint was able to step into that realm, was definitely because they had reached the Extreme Realm in some way. The boss continued, without the slightest exaggeration, after the few founding Ancient Saint s died, only he would still be able to understand the Three Sacred Arts, after all the Heaven''s Path incarnation was on top of his head. If a Pre-Sky Realm martial artist wanted to control the power of the Upper Sky Realm, this gap was not as simple as a simple change of words. Even from the perspective of his boss, the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao, it was impossible to accomplish. It was precisely because of this reason that it would be difficult to spread the news of the three Ancient Saint''s different Daos through their cultivation techniques after joining hands. The boss had always been an expert in comparison. It was like putting the mirror, the sword, and the jade together. Even though they had their own uses, it didn''t have any relation to him. If he had to combine them together, he could only create a David''s Deer, and there was no need to mention the power of the Ancient Saint, it was much stronger than a mirror anyways. If they were to explain it from this point of view, then everything made sense. Furthermore, they could see just how ambitious Yuan Sect was. They might really be planning to create the power of the Ancient Saint. It was a pity that there was no Ancient Saint guarding the Sect up till now. All that remained was the Three Holy Arts and it went against the logic of heaven, so it was natural that it would fail. The Three Saint Techniques started off too high. Even the top geniuses that haven''t appeared in a thousand years have to live for at least five or six hundred years before they have the qualifications to touch this technique. In the past, when Chen Fan had just stepped onto the road of cultivation, he had to spend a hundred years to reach the threshold of the Sage Realm s. He suddenly put the power of the three Ancient Saint s into a mess and put it into his body. Even if he cracked his brains, he would still not be able to figure out anything. But if they really had to wait until their bodies aged and their blood essence dried up, the Spiritual Consciousness would most likely rot, who would choose to cultivate the Three Holy Arts again, it would be better to just continue living for a little longer. But you are different. The boss''s words changed the topic as he stared at Chen Fan sinisterly, as if he was a despicable person who wanted to trick a good woman. ready-made supreme fleshly body, thousands of years of memories of cultivation, and most importantly, the fact that one had once reached the Supreme Stage was simply born for the Three Holy Arts. From the moment he heard that the holy energy did not fuse together, Chen Fan had already guessed this point. To be precise, it should be this technique, completely tailored for him. There were two old fellows. One of them was knowledgeable and could be used as an encyclopedia on the entire continent. The other one, with his ambitions intact, had the opportunity to bring them together. It was a perfect match. "Ugh ¡­" So, I''m not normal? Chen Fan asked back without any reason, and with just a slight poke, he understood the cause and effect of this technique. That''s about it. If you think so, there''s nothing wrong with it. The boss seriously replied after thinking for a while. Chen Fan:... Oh right, you have to prepare first. Maybe the Jade Chip will have the soul imprints of those Ancient Saint s, and they might put a test on you. The boss reminded him. According to the information he obtained from the Heavenly Dao, the Three Saints created this technique in order to ensure that their dao would not end there. Furthermore, they had specially left a mark on each of their hands to be sealed away with the help of Jade Chip. Haha, what''s so difficult about that? Why not try, I have never been threatened by Ancient Saint before. Chen Fan started laughing loudly. There was a high chance that he still recognized those three Ancient Saint s, he had obviously forgotten about the tragic situation where his Qingshan Town was suppressed to the point where he was unable to breathe. He held his breath, cleared away all distracting thoughts, and entered a very clear and calm state of mind. There were no strange thoughts in his mind. After realising the mysticality of the Three Sacred Arts, he began to slowly probe out the Spiritual Consciousness. He also floated the Jade Chip in the air and gradually delved into its depths. This was a mysterious space, the Three Saints were truly amazing, actually creating so many new tricks in a small Jade Chip. He estimated that it should be around a hundred zhang in length and was surrounded by a hazy glow. Who knew where it came from, but it just so happened that he could see the door in front of him. However, what he saw made him stare fixedly at a stone door in the distance. There was nothing else in this independent space. After he walked through the door, he thought that he would enter the door, but he found that he couldn''t open it no matter how hard he tried, and he couldn''t move at all. Furthermore, he started to suspect the quality of the two doors, although there was a possibility that the Jade Chip had the spatial laws which allowed it to store some physical items. But after observing for a long time, he still could not see what material it was made of, let alone shaking it, even the real steel door was not this heavy. The activation of the Spiritual Consciousness''s power was also ineffective. What do you mean, you lured me in but I didn''t even have a hair on my head? While he was still confused, he unintentionally discovered that there were many strange patterns on the top of the door. Initially, he had thought that it was just simple decoration, but the more he looked at it, the more he felt that something was amiss. Through the two gates, even though it was only an inscription pattern, Chen Fan could still feel a unique dao pattern. Perhaps because he had once experienced Supreme Stage before, he could immediately tell that if he wasn''t mistaken, these should be the three Ancient Saint that created the cultivation method. Furthermore, after carefully inspecting the place, they discovered that they were all waving their arms, showing the appearance of martial art moves. This door had a portion of the Three Holy Mantra engraved on it. It seemed that he had to first comprehend it before opening the next one. Chen Fan said to himself. He finally understood the intentions of the three Ancient Saint s and couldn''t help but silently criticize them in his heart. It was just a single cultivation technique, what was there to be proud of. To be able to catch his eye was the blessing of the Three Holy Arts, and it even made him stumble. Presumably, the three Ancient Saint s didn''t expect that the cultivation method that was supposed to be passed down to the younger generation would actually be obtained by Chen Fan. The moment he saw these lines, he had an illusion, or perhaps he had fallen into an illusion. It was just that he had truly gone too far. In the blink of an eye, Chen Fan returned to his previous dwelling. Before he went to sleep, when he was still a Supreme Wu Tian. Nothing around him had changed. Even the few decorations and knickknacks in the details had been manifested by his subconscious. It was clear how real this illusion was. Those lines immediately brought him back to his peak. After a long period of seclusion, he had just made a new breakthrough, and his cultivation had reached a whole new level. Subconsciously clenching his fists tightly, the abundant Spiritual Energy moved about in his body. This was the familiar might of a Zhi Zun, as though a slap could destroy the entire world in an instant. There was only one point that kept on spinning in Chen Fan''s mind. He obtained longevity, eternal power that was indestructible and indestructible. Unless he had the intention to commit suicide, his consciousness and body would not be damaged in the slightest, even if the Heavenly Dao was destroyed. Looking at the vast river of time, from ancient times till now, there had been so many outstanding talents and heroes. The radiance emitted from them was sufficient to illuminate an entire era. Only his tall figure stood tall, suppressing all of his peers to the point where they were unable to breathe. Even so, it was still unable to endure the ravages of time. In the end, it still passed away, leaving behind endless laments and legends. The Three Holy Arts once again displayed their miraculous powers, giving Chen Fan such a heavy gift right from the start. If this was true, then calling it the most fortunate gift from the start of time would not be an exaggeration. Longevity, how many people yearned for it in their dreams? Was this the end of cultivation? Chen Fan was somewhat regretful. He was also a member who had traveled alone on the path of cultivation, his own path could lead him even further, but he couldn''t really say how far he could walk. C96 The reason why he needed to sleep for thousands of years and cast the Reincarnation Seal on his three disciples was so that he could reactivate the brilliance of this life and double his lifespan. Actually, a person like me is already invincible in this world. There''s nothing much to me, at most I just enjoy the process of chasing after longevity. Chen Fan didn''t feel awkward at all when he said something that went against his heart. This was the truth. As a supreme being, he surveyed his surroundings. In this world, there was nothing that could be placed in his eyes. His high status could not be overcome, and only his longevity could arouse some interest, even though there had never been a successful example. Before I could do anything, I suddenly placed the spoils of war in front of me. There was no point in doing so, so it was better to give way first. Just like before the hundred meter race, the referee had just blown his whistle, but in the instant he heard the voice, the red line symbolizing victory appeared in front of his chest. Of course, Chen Fan felt bored of it. As the voice fell, the world spun, and the scene in front of him reversed. The scene in front of him became strange and strange, as if countless Spatial Channel were being destroyed. As he made this decision, the Three Holy Arts subconsciously began to react to it. Naturally, these illusions also crumbled. Chen Fan quietly watched the changes, he did not panic at all, he wanted to see what other moves he could use, to block them with force, he did not care at all. An unprecedented feeling of desolation came to his mind. He felt as if a huge wave of loneliness was coming to his face, surrounding him entirely. Suddenly, he was standing in the middle of the vast desert, looking around. There were no signs of human life, not even a little bit of life. It was as if this world had abandoned itself, yet could be understood to mean that the world had been destroyed, leaving him alone. This kind of feeling was definitely not something that could be described with words or words, but Chen Fan was clearly aware that he was already in the midst of the second stage of the Ancient Saint''s trial. Hehe, to actually use longevity and desolation to bind me at the same time, it seems that you really are a powerful character. Chen Fan muttered to himself. He still could not remember which Ancient Saint wrote this technique. Noticing his intention to kill himself, he immediately began the second stage of the test. First, it was the alluring longevity, which was now isolated by the world. If an ordinary person was completely isolated, then coupled with the impact from this desolate aura, he would probably go crazy in a few days. However, after careful consideration, this sort of test did indeed have a very deep meaning. Everyone said that cultivation was extremely boring, and if one could not endure loneliness, then how would one become an overlord of the emperor''s map? After reaching a high level of seclusion, one would need to spend hundreds of years to enter a secret chamber or cave. There was even a chance that they could stay in there for a longer period of time. This kind of test aimed at Chen Fan, with the condition of longevity added on, this way, it might not be beneficial at all, but rather true endless torture. Even the most powerful cultivators of the Spiritual Consciousness would one day exhaust their patience, but there was no end to their longevity. They could only wander in this desolate world by themselves, and no one knew where they would go. Just thinking about it made people terrified, but Chen Fan was inside. Come on, what''s the third test? This world won''t be able to trap me. Muttering to himself, Chen Fan immediately waved his fist, his fighting spirit surging in his heart. Endless brute force suddenly burst forth, like a tide that spread out. The surrounding ground and space were smashed into smithereens as the void continued to spread. With a speed visible to the naked eye, it was about to surround Chen Fan. This was no longer the test from before, so he chose to burn his own Blood Essence and life force to obtain the pure power to send out this stunning punch. There was nothing left to say. Since he was the only person left in this world, he would completely destroy it, devouring it all along with his little life without a single trace of nostalgia. Strictly speaking, this was no longer considered a world, it should be called a cage. It was just that Chen Fan was the only one who was restricted inside the cage, it was the right choice for him to choose a way to release himself. This was a decision that came from his subconscious mind, and represented that one day, if Chen Fan really faced such a situation, he would also make this kind of decision first. It was worth mentioning that, after all, the three Ancient Saint s had condensed the laws within them. All of the illusions could be made to look fake, and all of them were even built on the foundation of their own subconscious. In other words, Chen Fan''s senses were very real. When facing the void and those turbulence, just the pain was enough to make one faint. After everything was over, the expected new illusion did not come. When the third brother''s vision became clear again, he was standing in front of the familiar door. What happened just now was just a passing cloud. As long as he didn''t mention it, it wouldn''t exist. So the fear of death is the third test. Then I must have cheated, haha. smiled and said as he once again returned to the initial space of the Jade Chip. He had already died once, so he was naturally fearless against death. In addition, after more than ten thousand years of experience, he had long since become indifferent to it. It was better to take a stroll than to easily finish the three trials. It was a walk in the park. These three old fellows were really bored. Wouldn''t it be fine if they just had the effort to teach a few more disciples? They would have to hope for such a difficult trial. It would be strange if there wasn''t an end to the teachings. Thinking about those few disciples, Chen Fan felt extremely gratified. At least they hadn''t lost face for him and they had left a lot of leeway for him. From an extremely fair and objective point of view, even Chen Fan felt that those three trials were a little overboard, and he still obtained the upper hand. If it were another person, even if they were a prodigy, they would definitely be unable to pass these trials. Longevity, desolation, and death ¡ª no one would be able to withstand them all at the same time. Especially in the prime of her twenties and thirties, when she was full of blood energy and full of longing for the future, she was vulnerable to all sorts of temptations, and her longevity would obstruct most people. Shaking his head, it was useless to worry about it, so Chen Fan continued to observe the patterns on the door. As expected, there were new changes this time. It was no longer just a fixed pattern, but something seemed to be alive in his eyes. Passing the test meant that there was a certain type of shackles had been removed. Thus, the cultivation method within the runes could be completely displayed. The three figures moved hands and created many Seal s.''s eyes flashed explosively and started to imitate the movements. The level of the Three Sacred Arts was extremely high, even if it was just the initial stage, these hand seals were not something an ordinary person could see through. There was a kind of comprehension that made it clear to the eye. The brain was also issuing instructions to follow suit, but no matter what, these two hands would not obey. He held his breath and concentrated, this was his first time coming into contact with a foreign technique, he tried his best to gather all the Spiritual Consciousness, he wanted to jump into the gate and hide. Come to think of it, such a simple Jade Chip space was not in line with the Three Holy Arts at all. Three whole Ancient Saints s had jointly created it and had mysteriously sunk into the Yuan Sect s for thousands of years, so it was normal for them to shine from the Cultivation Realm. Even if no one was able to practice it, it shouldn''t have been hidden. No cultivation technique could have such a deep background. In the future, when the people of the Yuan Sect find out that the Three Holy Arts were given to Chen Fan cheaply, they would definitely be angered to death by the Great Clan Elder. Chen Fan was immersed in the complex seals of three figures, and was unable to extricate himself from it. It was as if he had obtained something new at all times, something so profound that even he was unable to describe what it felt like. It did not look very grand, but rather ordinary looking Ancient Saint s. Furthermore, they did not reveal their true appearances, but just looked like they could support the heavens and the earth. The only explanation was that they had truly melted their cultivation into heaven and earth without holding back. Through this image, they displayed the Three Holy Arts without holding back. Gradually, Chen Fan began to understand why they used such a special method to create their cultivation technique, and used it to create an inheritance. With the third trial, there were very few people who could pass. There were only one or two people in a million. No matter what their temperament was, they at least had the qualifications to practice Taoism. Different from true disciples, no matter how much they learn from the essence of the technique, they could not compare to the profound mysteries of the Ancient Saint. This was equivalent to the three Ancient Saint s teaching them in person, and from time to time, various experiences would be transferred into their minds, all of which were the tricks these guys came up with when they were creating the Three Holy Arts. He did not need to worry about the essence of the cultivation technique at all, as it would appear in the cultivation of future generations of disciples. As long as the key to the gate was unlocked, one would be able to obtain the qualifications to be taught by the Ancient Saint himself at all times. His strength had fallen, but his vision was still there. He saw the movements Ancient Saint made, as well as his experience. It was not inferior in any way to the process of his comprehension. He had also participated in the creation of the Three Sacred Arts. What cultivation method could be so profound? He was indeed worthy of being called a Supreme Elder of the Ancient Saint. He had already reached the so-called "transformation stage", unifying his own laws. Presumably, he was also one of the upper echelons among the Sage Realm. At first glance, it seemed that they were only simply moving their fingers. However, after truly comprehending the Three Holy Arts, they would be able to experience endless wonders from it. It did not have any obscure incantations or profound meanings. Of course, it did not matter much to Chen Fan, so he could similarly understand them clearly. A few simple Seal, as long as they could learn the charm of one of them, the rest would be to analyze it during future battles and deepen their impression over and over again. At this moment, Chen Fan''s heart was in the water, in an instant he was standing shoulder to shoulder with the Ancient Saint, strolling in the ocean using the laws they had created together. Once upon a time, during his journey to pursue Chang Changsheng, he possessed such a vast body of power of laws. Yet now, he wasn''t even able to shake a single wave. He could only do his best to swing his palm, using the Spiritual Consciousness as an alternative and attempting to stir up more waves. Only then, would it be more beneficial to the advancement of the Three Sacred Arts. C97 This brat is not bad. It seems that I, an old man, have good taste. In the outside world, the Deer God was somewhat amazed, especially after he saw the distant small mountain of Spiritual Stone being depleted at a speed visible to the naked eye. As a cultivator, as long as they survived, they would have to maintain their body with Spiritual Energy s, and this was even more so for cultivation. Furthermore, with the high intensity of the Spiritual Consciousness''s comprehension, the demand for the Spiritual Energy would reach an extremely terrifying level. Chen Fan and the Deer God were already prepared for this. On the other hand, the latter was responsible for activating the Spirit Convergence Array and continuously channeling the pure Spiritual Energy inside. Although Chen Fan did not feel anything, in reality, it had already been more than six hours. If one did not have a sturdy enough fleshly body, and an ample amount of Spiritual Stone s to support them, they would not even be qualified to cultivate. After all, in all of these years, not a single person had succeeded in Yuan Sect. This process continued for an entire day, all of it being spent inside the Jade Chip space. Only after Chen Fan came out did he finally understand the law of true fragrance. Tsk tsk tsk, these three sacred arts are truly extraordinary. Chen Fan could not help but exclaim. In his memory, there were many cultivation techniques, either because the threshold was too high or because they were incomplete, and the Three Saint Techniques were in line with his current condition. Tsk, it''s rare for me to make a move, since when have I ever been lacking in strength? Deer God was proud. No matter when or where, he had the ability to be arrogant, and he couldn''t be ridiculed by others. Under this sky, one could not question the incarnation of the heavens. Now that he was at Qi Disciple level 9, it would only take a day or two before he would be able to touch the barrier of Foundation Establishment. Chen Fan thought that he had a very clear plan for his own cultivation. No, no, no. Why are there so many Spiritual Stone missing? Only then did he notice that the changes on the small hill beside him had weakened by a tenth. Although he wasn''t generous enough to show his entire family''s wealth, he still had nearly a million pills, which could easily be counted in tens of thousands. What''s there to be surprised about? Is there anyone stealing from you inside the Yuan Sect? The Deer God did not care, it was even safer than Qing Xuan Sect. Someone who dared to come to the Spiritual Peak of the number one sect to steal Spiritual Stone s, perhaps this person was not even born yet. When I can become a Pixiu as well, it''ll be great, but I can''t go in, so it''s very comfortable. Chen Fan sighed. He felt that his state of mind was truly corrupt, and every day, he would actually feel pained because of such a small amount of Spiritual Stone. Right, what was the background of that strange stone? He was trying his best to divert his attention. A hundred thousand Spiritual Stone in exchange for a raise in realm. Don''t even think about this stone. When it becomes useful, it will naturally appear. The Deer God was mysterious and refused to say anything more. All right. Chen Fan was rather casual. When he was with this old fellow, he would often ignore his own experiences as a Supreme Wu Tian. Not everyone was able to match up to the incarnation of the Heaven''s Path. Thus, he was well aware of his own strength. In the next few days, Chen Fan did not rush to leave his Yuan Sect. Foundation is crucial. On the surface, he was still sightseeing within the Sect, and from time to time, he would go among the inner sect disciples to enjoy a wave of reverence, which was a small satisfaction to this Sovereign''s vanity. In fact, he was still waiting for the right moment. The Three Holy Arts'' cultivation had already reached a bottleneck, and so was Foundation Establishment. After so many years of cultivation, he still had a good eye for things. All of the Spiritual Being had completed their accumulation, causing vitality to surge within their bodies. As long as time passed, the barrier would naturally be completed after it was worn down. Before he left, Chen Fan had planned to make a huge fortune. He realized that these Yuan Sect Elders were all wealthy and their families were huge, which could be seen from the few millions of Spiritual Stone that the Third Elder had gathered earlier. This was also the difference between Yuan Sect, and was quite obvious. If Qian De and the others were to take out an equal number of Spiritual Stone, then perhaps half of their lives would be wasted. As for the hundreds of Yuan Sect Protectors, there was even less of a need to talk about them. They could be said to be the most nutritious in Cultivation Realm, and they would never need to worry about the issues at hand. Each of the Protectors had a large number of direct disciples under their wing. Just the amount of monthly tribute alone was not small, and there were at least around a hundred thousand Spiritual Stone. If one were to spend too much, and walk around in the name of Sect, as long as they didn''t go to a transcendent power like Hua Ding Sect, there would basically be no one who wouldn''t dare to give face to Yuan Sect. In comparison, if the Protectors of the Qing Xuan Sect had done the same thing, they would have definitely been rejected in every possible way. As for people like Chen Fan, it was clearly an open robbery. But from the Yuan Sect Sect Leader s to all of the elders, they had to be courteously greeted, and even in the entire Cultivation Realm, there would probably not be a second person. After messing around for a few days, Chen Fan did not know much about the other elders, and he did not have any plans to fight them. He was very patient, and this was what he lacked the most. After waiting for thousands of years, the third elder was also very tactful. On the ninth day, he had already left the city. Of course, he didn''t leave the Yuan Sect, but it was his turn to lecture those disciples. After hearing the news, Chen Fan immediately took action, and went to look for Hu Mu. Earlier, he specifically told this brat not to wander around for a month, and that he was waiting for this day to come. If the latter went out and went crazy again, it would ruin his big plan. Grandpa, why are you here? Surprised, Hu Mu quickly got up and let Chen Fan in. Today, when the Third Elder went out to lecture on the Dao, this old man was worried about you, so he came to take a look. Chen Fan''s old face was filled with kindness. How have you been feeling these past few days? Nothing abnormal happened, right? I have been peacefully recuperating. Fortunately, you helped me save him, so I feel that my cultivation is much deeper than before. Hu Mu responded. As he spoke, he poured Chen Fan a cup of tea as well, his movements extremely smooth. Come, drink your tea, grandfather. This is a kind of Spiritual Being that the Sect Leader specially bestowed to grandfather. Putting aside the previous reasons why he had not mentioned it, just looking at the current Hu Mu, listening to him calling his grandfather, Chen Fan felt rather gratified. This was what a Martial Saint should look like. However, it also made him more determined to get something from the Third Elder. Without enough Spiritual Being to increase his strength, how would he be able to earn more people''s respect? That''s good. Although this old man has never come into contact with you before, I can tell from the damage done to my body. Young people should still try their best to control themselves and not get too involved with others. C98 Chen Fan earnestly opened his mouth to persuade her. Seeing Hu Mu listening at the side, completely serious, she almost couldn''t hold back her laughter. I have remembered it. Don''t worry, grandfather, you gave me the second chance to be reborn. I will definitely cherish it more. Hu Mu hurriedly nodded his head, he was very clear about the impact the old man in front of him had on him. He never would have thought that because of his face, he would take advantage of others, to curry the favor of an old man. However, the Third Elder had already explained it to him a long time ago, and analyzed it from the perspective of the entire Middle School. In the end, he concluded that as long as there was a chance, my grandmother would spare no effort to curry favor with Chen Fan. Mu Er, Master Gu''s methods are brilliant, and he has extremely deep attainments in the medical path and array dao. If you can get his full support, then Grandfather can guarantee that you can become an elder in the future. Recalling the Third Elder''s original words, Hu Mu''s heart couldn''t help but throb. He didn''t have much ambition, just being able to reach the height of his grandfather was already enough for him to be satisfied. However, how could the position of a dignified Yuan Sect Elder be so easily obtained? Countless pairs of eyes were fixated on it, and just within the middle sect, there were already more than ten elderlies who had already reached the level of an elder, yet were struggling to become an elder. However, Hu Mu was different. With the Third Elder as his backing, he did not need to worry about the issue of one''s ranking, and the key issue was whether or not one could reach that kind of realm. It was useless to try to force him into the position of an elder, no matter how strong he was. He would only be trying to attract attention from the masses by forcing him into the position of an elder. Initially, the Third Elder had completely racked his brains for his Grandson, and was doing his utmost to arrange a better way out for him. Chen Fan''s arrival had undoubtedly become his trump card. He had personally indicated to accept Hu Mu as his. In the Third Elder''s judgement, as long as he could coax Chen Fan, everything would be fine. Even if the latter''s cultivation was not good, with his means, he could still change''s aptitude and thus increase Hu Mu''s potential. To the greatest extent, he could ensure that the road to the elder was unobstructed. When the time came, the two of them would jointly recommend him and he might even become the youngest Elder in the history of Yuan Sect. Oh, that''s true. A few days ago, this old man helped you redraw the meridians in your entire body. In the future, your cultivation will definitely improve, and you will also be able to make a new breakthrough in the refining of Spiritual Being. Chen Fan laughed while clenching his fists, he squinted his eyes and grabbed onto Hu Mu''s wrist. Actually, he didn''t know a thing about the so called pulse, at most, he was just pretending. The bird pecked three or five times in a row, and when the room was empty for half a day, the shrapnel would scatter as soon as it came. That''s not good ¡­ When the Spiritual Consciousness entered Hu Mu''s body, Chen Fan''s acting skills went up once again, and his eyebrows gradually knitted together. He slowly shook his head, and sighed a few times. What''s wrong, grandfather? Is there a problem? Hu Mu''s heart thumped. He was afraid that the mysterious power in his body had not been cleansed. Even if he was beaten to death, he would not want to suffer another round of torture. I just took a look and found that your new meridians are in conflict with the medicine of the Purple Gold Ginseng. There are actually signs of the Seven Ascension Meridians. Chen Fan casually said a few sentences, but what he said was not important. It was impossible for this brat to understand, and he was far from having any sort of expression or action that would scare him. Although there were no abnormalities now, they would unknowingly corrode your flesh and bone marrow. At most two years of time, you would be turned into a human! Ah? How could this be?! Especially that last word, which gave Hu Mu a great fright. His little face instantly turned deathly pale. To put it bluntly, it was obvious that the heavens wanted to take away your little life, which was why those medicinal effects had changed. However, since you had met this old man, the King of Hell had to take back my order! Chen Fan''s voice was raised by a few points, he was full of confidence, and had the feeling that he would win against the heavens. The ancients often said, ''To cure a disease, you have to look for a shape first. Grandpa, you sure are mystical. You can actually predict my illness more than two years in advance.'' Hearing this, Hu Mu''s heart shook, and he couldn''t help but admire Chen Fan more. It was fortunate that he met this genius doctor, otherwise, he wouldn''t even know how he would die in the future. Grandfather, do you have any treatment methods right now? Since he found the Seven Ultimate, the sooner he could save it the better. He could not delay it even a second, and he would need the help of many Spiritual Being in order to achieve an effect that would defy the heavens and change fate. After saying that, Hu Mu paused for a while, muttering to himself for a bit, before continuing. Previously, I heard Third Elder say that his treasury just so happened to have many different kinds of Spiritual Being, which just so happened to meet the need to reverse the flow of the Seven Ultimate, Pulse. However, it''s not convenient for this old man to enter such a private and secret place. I should wait for the Third Elder to come back first. Chen Fan had already understood it earlier, every elder of the Yuan Sect were well-off, and had their own small treasury, so it was likely that the Third Elder would not disappoint him. Hu Mu was stunned, it was related to his own life and fortune, he was not willing to wait much longer, he only hesitated for a moment. Grandfather who is fine, I will lead you in right now. Grandfather will have to wait for at least a day before he can return. Right now, he completely trusted Chen Fan, and he didn''t have any doubts and precautions. If he hesitated even a little, he would be worried that the three elders would scold him. Furthermore, this was a great opportunity to rope Chen Fan in. It was enough to even let the Third Elder enter and exit the treasury as he pleased. This... Is it appropriate? Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Chen Fan was somewhat hesitant. Grandfather will not say anything. Grandpa is saving my life and I should thank you. Hu Mu stood up and took the initiative to lead the way. From his point of view, allowing the latter to enter his grandfather''s small treasury meant that the relationship between the two of them had grown closer. Of course, his own life was more important. Very quickly, Hu Mu and Yue Yang arrived outside the secret room where Spiritual Peak were concealed. He extended his palm, had already pinched the profound Seal well, and threw it into the thick and heavy stone door. Even though this was just an unremarkable secret room, it was surrounded by at least a dozen powerful killing formations. Any slight movement would cause a huge disturbance and could at least spread to half of the Spiritual Peak. Chen Fan had already expected that if he had come here to steal it himself, there basically wouldn''t be any possibility of success. Ka-cha! * The Spell Formation was already temporarily being withdrawn, and the stone door slowly opened up. However, it was already being covered by a mysterious domain more than three hundred meters away. This was also to prevent anyone from following them, so they secretly rushed over. As long as they casually looked around, no one would have the guts to do so. This little treasury that belonged to the Third Elder could only be opened by him and Hu Mu. Even if the other elders or Sect Leader s came, they would not be able to break it in a short period of time. Let''s go, grandfather. Look at which Spiritual Being is needed for this. We can just directly take them down. When Chen Fan entered the secret room, the scene before his eyes did not disappoint him. The Third Elder''s several hundred years of accumulated assets, an entire twenty odd rows of wooden shelves, were neatly stacked. Furthermore, they were separated into different categories. Spiritual Pill s, medicinal herbs, Jade Chip s, techniques, etc., were divided into different grades and types. There was no need to mention the low level Spiritual Being s, they had also not entered Chen Fan''s eyes just now. Those high level Spiritual Being were similarly bound by the miniature Spell Formation, in order to avoid their auras leaking and the loss of their medicinal power. He slowly picked his way back and forth the secret room, pretending to look at the Spiritual Being, but in his heart, he was struggling. This is a golden opportunity. If you miss it, you''ll regret it in the future! Deer God continued to tempt Chen Fan within his Zifu Space. Originally, he did not have much movement, but the moment he saw the Spiritual Being, he was immediately startled and immediately suggested that he move the entire secret room. If that was the case, then there would be no end to Yuan Sect. After all, they had the reputation of being the First Sect in the Northern Language and were extremely powerful ¡­ Chen Fan was hesitant. Although he was also very moved, and paying attention to Qing Xuan Sect did indeed require the support of a lot of cultivation resources, it was still a difficult choice to make. The dignified Supreme Wu Tian was also so indecisive. Thinking back to when you swept through the continent eight thousand years ago, when you never cared about these small sects. When he mentioned about Chen Fan''s past achievements, Deer God was even more agitated than him. Even though his voice sounded a little shaky, it was very likely that he was provoked by these Spiritual Being. They don''t even have the qualifications to bring you shoes, just a few Spiritual Being and it will be considered a new experiential learning. Chen Fan:... What the old fellow said was very true, and it was also a matter of fact. Right now, he did not have the battle power he once had, so if he was truly chased by Yuan Sect, it would definitely become another source of trouble. Mu Er, did you open the treasury? Just then, the Third Elder''s voice came out from the jade pendant by Hu Mu''s waist, startling Chen Fan. But it was a special method of communication between their ancestors. Hu Mu had yet to cultivate to the stage of Spiritual Consciousness s long-distance sound transmission, so he used this jade pendant as support. Grandfather, don''t worry. Recently, Master Gu helped me reconstruct my meridians, so we came to see if there were any suitable Spiritual Being to cultivate properly. Hu Mu replied. He pushed Chen Fan away even before he came up, worried that he would feel resentful. Not bad, not bad. You really did not disappoint me. Your path is the true path ¡­ Hearing Hu Mu''s words, the Third Clan Elder was at ease and pleased, but he quickly changed the topic. Mu Er, don''t believe anything that Gu Master said. He''s an old liar! Master Feng of the Hua Ding Sect has already come to find this old man, to face with the Sect Leader to expose his scam, and has already swindled a large number of Spiritual Being in the Hua Ding Sect! As his voice fell, Hu Mu raised his head in shock, and just happened to meet Chen Fan''s similarly astonished gaze. The atmosphere in the secret room couldn''t help but become awkward, and fell into a deathly silence. C99 Mu Er, are you alright? After a long moment of silence, the third elder asked in confusion. Impossible, but Master Gu really cured the Grandson''s disease? Hu Mu asked. Hmph hmph, that old fellow did indeed have some ability, but he was someone who ate people without spitting out their bones. He actually secretly poisoned over a hundred disciples of Hua Ding Sect and treated them as food for blood! The Third Elder snorted coldly. Other than anger, he was also secretly glad that he had found out about the scam, despite being separated by the Jade Chip. But no matter what, he never would have thought that in truth, he had already fallen into Chen Fan''s basin. He only saw the small pit in front of him. I understand grandfather, then when you come back, we will go and chase that old man away. It was so bad that he still wanted to stay in the position of my Yuan Sect. Tonight, this old man will make all of the rewards he collected puked them all up. The Third Elder didn''t make a sound, causing Hu Mu''s body to tremble, as he still had not recovered from his state of shock. If that old fellow could cast a gaze through the Jade Chip, he would definitely be able to see his Grandson. His entire body was drenched in sweat and he was so nervous that he almost lost control. In their conversation just now, the main reason why this brat did not send Chen Fan out was because the latter had used a sharp blade to stab into his throat in time. Master Gu, if you have something to say, then say it properly. I will definitely persuade my grandfather to not act rashly. Sensing the sharp Gengjin Qi, even the area around his neck was somewhat moist, as long as Hu Mu had any hint of a flaw, his head would immediately be chopped off. What was going on? Weren''t you trying to make your grandpa sound nice just now? Why did you change your words so quickly? Chen Fan said with a cold smile, he was as surprised as Hu Mu in the slightest. This turn of events was too sudden, and was completely within Chen Fan''s expectations. Regarding his scheme to take advantage of Yuan Sect, he had many records to deal with the mishaps. However, he did not expect the mistake to happen with the Hua Ding Sect Ranker. His identity as a Master Gu was something that Nangong Yi had personally forged. Grandfather, I was wrong. Your lordship is generous, and you have to spare my life ¡­ Hu Mu trembled as he begged, not even daring to breathe. He was afraid that if Chen Fan used even a little bit of strength, he would end up in the Underworld. What was a grown man trying to say? Why was he so timid?! Chen Fan ordered, interrupting his train of thoughts. Come to think of it, with his actions within the Yuan Sect, it had actually proven that he did have his own methods. At least, the opening of the Void Tomb was not a lie, and Hu Mu''s condition had improved. If it was some other aspect of questioning, with his and Deer God''s glib tongue, they might even be able to dodge the question. But it seemed like Yuan Sect was not willing to let all those Spiritual Stone get away with it. No matter if that Master Feng had or not been ordered by Nangong Yi, as long as someone from the Hua Ding Sect spoke up, with a single word, he would be pinned to the ground. Heh heh, what did I say? I didn''t listen to the words of the old man and ended up suffering a loss in front of me. This was exactly what the Deer God was feeling, and with a shout, since he had already reached an irreparable extent, there was no longer a need to hesitate. What went wrong? Chen Fan frowned deeply as he muttered to himself, but couldn''t come up with an explanation no matter how hard he thought. Although a thought had flashed through his mind, and he was the first to eliminate Nangong Yi, this old fellow had no reason to reveal his identity. Furthermore, Chen Fan had personally brought out the banner of being the successor of the Ancient Saint. As a Sect Leader of a transcendent power, he should be clear about the weight of these words. This was why he spoke of the matter of the marriage between Nangong Xuan and Nangong Xuan. He had long wanted Nangong Xuan to become Dao-companion with him. Taking ten thousand steps back, it could not be Nangong Yi''s intention. He wanted to curry favor with you more than the Third Elder, he was just short on time, how could he do such a thing? It was the same for Deer God. Could it be the one with the surname Feng? Chen Fan recalled what the Third Elder said, and there were already no other people left to doubt. He had some understanding of Master Feng. Previously, when Nangong Xuan had gone to the Qing Xuan Sect for the first time, he was responsible for escorting him. However, he still could not think of the reason behind this. No matter what he did, there had to be a reason for it. Moreover, Master Feng did not know his true identity. Didn''t you hear what the Third Elder said? They exposed that you are a scammer, but they didn''t mention the words Ancient Saint''s successor or Qing Xuan Sect. The Deer God reminded him, but he felt that now was not the time to be entangled with this issue, so he quickly urged again. You brat, it''s better to deal with this situation first and find a safe place to plan things out. Without a way, Chen Fan could only slap the back of Redwood''s head. Whether or not it took his life, he would only faint for a short while, then open his Storage Bag s and begin to close them. With the thought of stepping into the Yuan Sect for the last time in his life, at least before his Nascent Infant Stage, he wouldn''t be able to come back again. He wished he could dig three feet out of this secret room. Other than the Spiritual Being treasures, they did not let go of even those wooden shelves either. They kept all of them in rows after rows, and the Third Elder''s family was about to be able to establish a small sect. With just a short two pieces of effort, Chen Fan completely plundered all of the old fellow''s several hundred years of accumulated wealth. Looking at the empty secret room, Chen Fan felt more or less relieved. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he realized that there were still Spell Formation s outside the door. Hey, wake up! When he finally regained consciousness, Hu Mu thought that he was already dead. However, when he saw Chen Fan''s face, he quickly regained consciousness. Send me out of the Yuan Sect and I''ll spare your life. This brat was completely deceived. This half day had caused too much of an impact on him, and there was no room for choice or resistance. Good. The only thing that remained in front of him was an empty house. The third elder was definitely so angry that his lungs were about to explode. Subconsciously, even he himself did not know how those Seal were created. After the stone door closed, he led Chen Fan down the Spiritual Peak and rushed straight towards the Yuan Sect Mountain Gate. Fortunately, Master Feng''s news had not spread throughout the entire Sect, so many disciples that he met along the way still warmly greeted Chen Fan. Sect Leader and the rest were still in the midst of discussion, and did not plan to deal with Chen Fan on the day of his lecture. A few days ago, a group of upper echelons personally lifted Chen Fan to an extremely high position. If they drove Chen Fan out in public, or once again made public this so-called swindler, wouldn''t that mean Sect Leader and the others were smacking their faces? A sharp dagger was always hidden in his sleeve, aiming straight at the back of Hu Mu''s spine, causing him to feel the threat of death every second. Only then did he smoothly leave the Yuan Sect. Whether or not he had killed Hu Mu, he had been tormenting himself recently, so there was no need to kill him anymore. Moreover, the two of them had contributed enough to sustain their cultivation for a long period of time, so it was akin to buying a life for themselves. Return to Qing Xuan Sect? Deer God asked, there was still a place to go next. He''ll first go to the Wilderness to dodge it, then take a look at the limelight and recover my original appearance. There shouldn''t be any major problems. This time, the Yuan Sect would certainly fall into a crazed state. Chen Fan had caused all of them, the Top Rankers, to lose face; Even though it did not involve the Qing Xuan Sect, he still had to be wary of losing it no matter what. It was a good thing that he had kept his true identity hidden this entire time. From the Master Gu to the Qing Xuan Sect disciples, no one could guess that there was a connection between the two unless he was courting death and revealed his identity. You are about to reach Foundation Establishment, so you need to have a stable environment. At the slowest, you need only a week''s time. The Deer God was naturally clear that this was the key threshold after the former stepped onto the road of cultivation, and he definitely could not lower his guard. Sigh, humans are not as good as the heavens. Looks like I have to change my title. Chen Fan faintly mocked himself. The so-called Boundless Heaven was only possible if he could regain his supreme being battle prowess. Carrying an entire fifty million Spiritual Stone and the entire family of a Yuan Sect Elder, Chen Fan prepared to make his first run. However, what he did not expect was that right after he moved, he actually saw Nangong Xuan''s figure again. At that time, he had already noticed the strangeness of it. Holy Maiden of the Hua Ding Sect appearing alone near the Yuan Sect Mountain Gate was already very unusual to begin with. Why are you here? Just like how Hu Mu trusted himself, Chen Fan also didn''t think that the grandfather and grandson pair would harm him. Master Feng has been sneaking around recently, and today he also came back to the Yuan Sect so I followed behind him. Nangong Xuan said. Ai, this old guy sold me out as soon as he came up. Chen Fan sighed, judging from the former''s reaction, he probably did not know either. Ah? How could this be?! Nangong Xuan was shocked. She had only suspected Master Feng, but did not expect such an outcome. Don''t worry about it so much for now. The thirty-six ways to leave is better than nothing. You should also change your appearance. That face of yours is too eye-catching. Chen Fan didn''t want to delay any longer. Leaving the Yuan Sect was the best choice. That brat Hu Mu might just turn around and find the three old reports, and right now, the higher ups of Yuan Sect were all gathering, and they could rush out at any time to search for him. If they were to see Nangong Xuan again, everything would be exposed, and the matter would completely sink into the abyss. Hearing that, Nangong Xuan''s beautiful face turned red, then immediately after, a divine light flashed, she had some thoughts, and changed into the appearance of the servant that she had dismissed. It was just an ordinary passer-by''s image. As long as he didn''t look at her eyes, there would definitely be no one stopping on her body for even a moment. C100 Do you need me to open my Domain Gate? Nangong Xuan asked. You still have that thing on you? Chen Fan was a little surprised, the disciples of the great powers really did have a strong family background. It was only a few jade platforms that were able to transmit a thousand miles or so, and some spatial laws were carved into them. Nangong Xuan replied. With her identity as a Holy Maiden, she should have received heavy protection when she was outside. Adding on Nangong Yi''s favors, it was normal for him to have some life-saving trump cards. After all, his Cultivation Realm was not comparable to that small hut''s. Don''t be in such a hurry, leave it to the critical moment. Chen Fan thought, he did not plan to teleport so quickly. The main thing was that this place was just outside the Yuan Sect Mountain Gate, if there was any movement, it would definitely be discovered immediately. At that time, any random elder who appeared would be able to track them by relying on the residual energy waves. "Whiz!" Without saying much, the two of them proceeded on their journey at the same time. Driving their respective spiritual energies, they rapidly flew into the distance, as far away from the Yuan Sect as possible. Although even Chen Fan could not say where he was going, his Hua Ding Sect was negated by him as well. Under the premise that Nangong Xuan did not expose herself, there was no need to recklessly stir up trouble from the east, causing unnecessary trouble for Nangong Yi. And look at that Yuan Sect, where the flustered Hu Mu sent Chen Fan away, then sat like an idiot for an hour, completely unable to accept this fact. The mysterious savior of his life had turned into a scammer that was publicly acknowledged by the Sect Leader and the elders. He had even stolen all of his grandfather''s family assets. It was fortunate that Hu Mu still called him grandfather, hoping that Chen Fan would teach him those medical methods. Thinking back to it now, he wished that he could slap himself to death. However, as time passed, he gradually calmed down and began to consider countermeasures. He couldn''t tell his grandfather first, otherwise, he would definitely be angered to death. Moreover, if he were to alarm Sect Leader and the others, it wouldn''t make sense for him to be embarrassed. Hu Mu muttered to himself, he was more worried that the Third Elder would punish him. As well as their performance during this period of time, they had a good time eating and drinking while paying homage to the so called Master Gu, yet in the end, this was the result. If it was too noisy, it would definitely attract the ridicule of the other Senior Expert s. They wouldn''t even have the ability to differentiate between good and bad people anymore. Perhaps because he had been tormented by resentment for a while, his state of mind had grown a little. He did not directly inform the Third Elder, but instead turned around and went to the other Spiritual Peak. He turned seven corners and turned eight corners to arrive outside the side hall, intentionally looking for a path to avoid the Fifth Elder who was cultivating on the Spiritual Peak. Senior Martial Brother Sun, you have to help this brother! Right after entering, Hu Mu cupped his hands and greeted the young man who was sitting on a prayer mat. What was Junior Hu saying? He was being too serious. His name was Sun Changling, and he was the direct disciple of the Fifth Elder. A strong Ranker came over and informed Sect Leader and the others about the offerings from the Gu family. That guy stole a large group of Spiritual Being s from the Hua Ding Sect, he must have had bad intentions towards me in the Yuan Sect. Where did this come from? Sun Changling was also a little shocked, he had originally wanted to pay a visit to Chen Fan after learning of his various mystical methods. Grandfather already specifically told me to be more wary of him, and that I would make a move tonight to chase him out of the Sect. Saying that, Hu Mu took the jade pendant on his waist and listened to everything that was written there. Since the Third Elder had already said so, it seemed that Master Gu was indeed not a good person. The latter was also shocked, she did not expect such a thing to happen. However, that old fellow was extremely cunning. Just now, he forced me to steal all of Grandfather''s Spiritual Being s and plundered everything in the treasury on the Spiritual Peak. Hu Mu''s heart was filled with grief and indignation, if he knew the truth, then Master Gu would truly be the Chen Fan that he disdained back then, and would most likely be angered to the point of fainting. What? This is too much! We have already paid him so much, why is he still so greedy? Sun Changling scolded. Although he and the Third Elder did not have any interactions, he had no choice but to focus. Within the Yuan Sect, there were not many people who knew about the special relationship between him and Hu Mu. It was because of the latter''s intentional recommendation that Sun Changling had been promoted from an ordinary branch disciple to an inner sect disciple. And then, relying on the third clan elder''s banner, Sun Changling''s path could be said to be smooth sailing, and he was accepted into the clan by the fifth clan elder. In these past two years, as long as this playboy Hu Mu encountered any trouble that was difficult to solve, he would definitely be the first one to come to Sun Changling to deal with it. It was precisely because of this that they rarely reached the Third Elder, and the latter just so happened to require the support of even more Sect experts. Thus, they took advantage of Hu Mu, who was a ready-made intermediary, and of course, they wanted to repay the gratitude. I''ll help you find a few reliable seniors and brothers to snatch Grandfather''s Spiritual Being and teach that old fellow a lesson. Hu Mu revealed his thought. Taking advantage that Chen Fan had not run far, and adding that the higher ups of the Sect Leader and the rest did not know about it yet, he might as well capture Chen Fan first. This way, they could not avoid their mistakes. Moreover, they could raise their prestige in the Sect, and fix the Third Elder''s reputation. It could be said that this was a good idea to kill two birds with one stone. It had to be said that Hu Mu had improved a lot. He was someone who had walked the line between life and death in the end, so it was hard to tell if he could actually achieve it even if he cracked the abacus in his hands. I have to take revenge for this grudge. I, the great number one sect in the Yuan Sect, can''t be easily bullied. Sun Changling waved his fist. Any Yuan Sect disciple who heard of this, would be filled with anger, and it was equivalent to giving everyone a slap in the face. In this half a month, all of the people present in the Yuan Sect were extremely respectful towards Chen Fan, yet he made a hundred and eighty degree turn, which most people would not be able to accept. But Sun Changling was not an idiot, after pondering for a bit, he said hesitantly. Just that, for the Master Gu to be able to sit together with the Sect Leader and the others and even open a Void Tomb that has been sealed for a long time, I m afraid that it is not something that you and I can control. After hearing the Third Elder''s words, they had truly believed this to be true, and their chests were surging with anger. But from his point of view, Chen Fan was the real Senior Expert, he was just a small direct disciple, the difference in strength was too big. What bullsh * t grandmaster, he was clearly a swindler! Hu Mu spat fiercely and said with certainty. When I was at the Qingshan Town, I could even casually suppress that Patriarch Ma. In my opinion, your actual cultivation is only around the Foundation Building Stage. When they were previously covered up by Chen Fan''s medical skills, naturally no one paid attention to those small details. Now that they thought about it, after a series of flaws connected, they even verified his false identity. To be able to become a direct disciple in a large sect like the Yuan Sect, the Foundation Establishment Five Transformations was a rather hard standard. Without reaching this level, even the Sect Leader s would not be able to obtain this title. At most, they would only have elders specially teaching them. After two whole years of steady progress, Sun Changling had already reached the sixth form of the Foundation Establishment, and was also one of the most outstanding youths. If that''s the case, then we can give it a try. Hearing Hu Mu''s judgement, Sun Changling suddenly had a thought. To him, this was definitely an opportunity delivered to him. Don''t worry, as long as Senior Martial Brother Sun is willing to help, Junior Martial Brother Wang and the others will help. Hu Mu laughed coldly. Ever since he could remember, there had never been someone who could make him suffer such a loss. Let''s do it now! After tidying things up for a bit, Sun Changling and Hu Mu got up and left, heading to the other helpers. Sun Changling also had his own plans, he hoped that Hu Mu would not help in the end. He did not have much strength to begin with, and even had to suffer from this strange disease. If he could capture Chen Fan, he would definitely blame this on him, and even make up for the Third Elder''s little treasury. At that time, not only would he be able to receive a large amount of rewards, even Sect Leader and the others would probably favor him. In the future, he would undoubtedly have the qualifications to advance even faster in the Sect. Chen Fan and Nangong Xuan continued to rush ferociously forward, after running for about three hundred li, they finally stopped to take a breath, and tried to think of a place to hide. This distance was still too short for Yuan Sect, so their experts would be able to catch up in a moment. Chen Fan kept on thinking about countermeasures on the road. However, due to the suppression from his absolute strength, he could only run around like a headless fly. There really wasn''t anywhere that he could hide from the Yuan Sect''s search. [You are too audacious. You actually emptied the Third Elder''s entire family treasury. That will drive him crazy.] Nangong Xuan was also quite frightened. Even as a Holy Maiden, if she were to also do such a thing, it would bring about quite a bit of trouble to her Hua Ding Sect. However, the Third Elder did not have a good impression of her. She had met the Third Elder once, and at that time, she had already expressed her intent of marrying Hu Mu, but Nangong Yi had rejected her. Alas, all things in the world have karma. Where does the fruit come from without a root come from? The source is usually the most unfathomable possibility. Chen Fan faintly sighed. If it wasn''t for the Third Elder wanting to curry favor with Nangong Xuan, why would there be such a series of waves? Not to mention that he could smoothly cut tens of millions of pieces of Spiritual Stone''s meat from Yuan Sect''s body, and his harvests could be said to be extremely bountiful. Nangong Xuan, I suggest you not to run around with me anymore. Chen Fan did not plan to involve the former in this as well. The situation was about to go out of control and everything that had happened was going to go beyond his expectations. Even he had to deal with it, not to mention a little girl beside him. Ah? Nangong Xuan was startled, this won''t do, you still have to help me treat my illness, I can''t let anything go wrong. The few jade platforms you have on you should be able to stay far away from this place, so while no one else is around, you should quickly return to the Hua Ding Sect. C101 Moreover, the reason why he was exposed was all because of Master Feng. This Holy Maiden will naturally bear all the faults he committed. Nangong Xuan clenched her fist tightly, with a kind of valiant and heroic feeling, a feeling that could pierce through the heavens. Coupled with her originally devastatingly beautiful face, it was definitely a completely different story. With regards to your illness, since I have accepted the Spiritual Stone, I will definitely help you heal it. Chen Fan could not be bothered to dispute anymore, if he was willing to follow her, maybe this Holy Maiden would be able to help him a little. Brat, stop flirting and flattering for now. The pursuers behind you are about to have their butts set on fire. Deer God suddenly reminded Yun Che. His Spiritual Consciousness''s perception had always been sensitive. Just at this time, a few figures appeared on the road ahead, all of them staring at Chen Fan with unfriendly expressions. Due to safety considerations, Hu Mu did not follow him. He still had to stabilize the Third Elder inside the Yuan Sect to prevent more trouble. Of course, no one wanted to talk about the humiliating past in front of their fellow apprentices. Master Gu, why did you leave in such a hurry? The Third Elder still wants to properly entertain you for a while. Sun Changling sneered. And just by relying on their great Yuan Sect and the fact that these nearby regions were all under their jurisdiction, they were able to obtain information so easily. Following the fluctuations of Spiritual Energy along the way, they hurried along the way. They even used a few jade platforms before finally seeing Chen Fan and Yue Shan. Forget about it. I already know what your sect is thinking, so I''ll just take note of this hospitality for now. Chen Fan stroked his beard, his expression not changing. He was extremely sure that these guys were here to capture him. We still have to invite Master Gu back, otherwise we won''t be able to report back. Another man spoke up, his voice ice-cold. These people were Hu Mu''s friends at the Yuan Sect, and were mostly gathered around him for the Third Elder. Then, they followed Sun Changling to besiege him. What''s wrong with you little fellows? Are your words useless? Go get my Grandson to respond! Chen Fan once again put on the airs of a reverend master. As long as Hu Mu was hiding in the dark, he could immediately probe him out. Fortunately, he did not feel any unusual fluctuations. It seemed like there were no other Yuan Sect experts present to take action, so these little fellows should be the ones leading the way. Stop wasting time talking to him, take him down and return to Sect to receive their rewards. Sun Changling could no longer hold it in, he unleashed the spirit seal that had been brewing inside his sleeves, and at the same time, stomped on the ground with his feet, his entire body soaring into the sky. Although he had Hu Mu''s guarantee, he still kept it in mind and did not directly clash with Chen Fan head-on. After all, this guy was acknowledged by the Sect Leader and all the elders. It was just as Hu Mu had said, it was not that good to be fooling around with so many Senior Expert s. Boom!" The thick spiritual power suddenly spread out. It was all covered by that seal. It rampaged through the air, shattering the void as it faced Chen Fan''s skull. You bastards, get lost! Without waiting for the latter to make a move, it was Nangong Xuan who took the initiative to step forward, and shouted with a face full of malice. Immediately, a real spiritual imprint appeared in her palm. After being thrown out, it quickly expanded to a size of ten feet. It collided ruthlessly with Sun Changling, and the incomparably ferocious force immediately dispersed out, spreading out like a violent flood, which couldn''t be stopped at all. As a Holy Maiden, he had reached the Foundation Establishment Nine Transformations a year ago, and now, he was even more so an expert with half a step into the Core Condensating. The Seal that was painstakingly refining for a long time instantly broke when it came into contact with the real body of the Spirit Emblem. After all, it could not win against the real world, and this was an unshakable truth at any time. With this, this old man actually had a helper. Sun Changling''s gaze immediately became stern, and he ordered the other junior brothers beside him to display their respective treasures. Kill! To dare insult my Yuan Sect, you are the one who truly doesn''t want to live anymore. Today, I have rendered a great merit for my Sect, so there will definitely be a generous reward, haha. It was nothing more than a few blades, spears, and halberds, Spiritual Energy s around his body surged, and fiercely rushed towards Nangong Xuan. All of them were at the Foundation Building Stage realm, and had a bit of might. Waves of strong gales followed, covering the sky within a circumference of a hundred zhang. The light dimmed, and only a few dazzling figures were moving about. Each of them held a powerful treasure that released a dense Gengjin Qi, which formed a formation that surrounded and attacked from all directions, including Chen Fan and Nangong Xuan at the same time. Amongst the younger generation with normal Cultivation Realm, they could be considered a genius. However, that was before they met the two of them, so there was no need to talk about the ten thousand year old, even he was considered a monster. Back then, when Nangong Yi had recommended her to be his Holy Maiden, it was not only because he was protecting his own granddaughter. She immediately let out a delicate shout and spread out her sleeves slightly. The sound of wind whistled out, but it was not a simple movement of air. He put on a pair of sharp blades, showing no mercy at all. It was as if he had set up a wall of daggers in the void. Seeing that the situation was not good, the few young disciples wanted to stop their bodies. It was already too late, they could barely hold the Lex Sabre in front of them, and tried to slow their charge. However, most of them were still thrown into the air by the Infinity Wind Blades. They immediately dropped back down to the ground at an extremely high speed, scaring them so much that their blood almost became cold. On the other hand, Chen Fan watched the show with relish. Nangong Xuan was having a great time playing with it, throwing it back and forth like she was throwing sandbags, the layers of sharp blades still corroding their bodies. It didn''t take much effort to deal with these small fries. Before the truly brilliant method had even been unleashed, they had already fallen on their knees. It was such a rare experience for him to have such a battle, Nangong Xuan finally had a place to release her instincts and treat these pitiful worms as playthings. For an entire twenty years, she rarely walked out of the small courtyard in the Hua Ding Sect, and with Nangong Yi''s protection from every angle, she didn''t even have the chance to spar with him outside. Bold demon, are you trying to harm the inner sect disciples of the Yuan Sect? Sun Changling had only taken a short moment to catch his breath, but he had not expected it to turn out like this. Similarly, he raised the three-foot-long sword in his hand and shot out a pillar of light. Furthermore, he continued to wave the sword. Many mysterious patterns appeared on the surface of the sword, and after being activated by the Spiritual Energy, it quickly twisted. More and more pure Sword Intent gathered in the light pillar, thick enough to fit an adult''s waist, they spanned across the area, looking extremely resplendent. It carried all of Sun Changling''s attainments in the way of the sword, so it was very clear that he was going to eliminate all of the obstructions in that instant, and display a force that could crush everything in his way. Go on, go on, the adults are here discussing running, and the children are here to help. Chen Fan could not bear to watch any longer, he released his Three Saint Force and released it, causing the light pillar to disappear into the air without a trace, and he was unable to even cause a ripple to appear. What a joke, even if this brat was a direct disciple, how could he be a match for a Three Saint Force master? He was easily sliced into pieces. Hu Mu this brat was too much of a swindler, how was this some kind of Foundation Building Stage that allowed him to not die? Sun Changling scolded the former numerous times in his heart. Indeed, they were in the same realm, but the problem was that the difference in their fighting strength was too great. If he faced Chen Fan alone, perhaps he would be able to capture him. However, who would have thought that there would be an additional Nangong Xuan. Go and call the old guy from the Sect over. For a junior like you, you can only send yourself to your death. Chen Fan said carelessly, it wasn''t a big deal if he was sharp-tongued. I''m afraid that if my sect''s Senior Expert personally came, you old fool wouldn''t say such words. Sun Changling sarcastically replied. The pair of wings on his back flapped, creating hundreds and thousands of Lingyu s. They formed a giant net in front of Chen Fan, attempting to cover the latter. Hearing sounds, even the air was easily torn apart. Sun Changling used all of his strength to cut down, and forcibly cut an opening in the middle of Lingyu. Hey, you don''t need to say that. If the Third Elder had rushed over, this old man would have already run away. Chen Fan did not hide anything and was extremely frank. In the time it took for him to finish his words, he slapped his palm down yet again. Endless brute force surrounded Sun Changling, and forcefully squeezed out the surrounding space. Sun Changling: "... The battle still continued, with sword light flashing, the silver pillars continued to flow, Chen Fan used his bare hands to go up on stage and also continued to attack with his palm. From the very beginning, the two of them didn''t probe each other out. Killing intent frequently appeared on their faces, but very quickly, they switched from stalemate to attacking or defending. Ah! Miserable screams came one after another, causing Sun Changling''s heart to shake violently. He would very quickly learn from them, and the superiority of his usually arrogant cultivation realm was completely suppressed. There were bloody holes all over his body, and he was completely drenched in blood. He lay on the ground, wailing in pain. He didn''t even dare to scream out loud for fear of disturbing his wounds. Furthermore, Nangong Xuan''s plan of attack was extremely ingenious, and only caused them to feel extreme pain. Now that he had lost the power to fight again, if he was saved in time, his little life could definitely be saved. There was one thing that could be imagined, that they would definitely leave a shadow in Nangong Xuan''s heart. For a very long time in the future, this battle would become their nightmare. When the examinee saw this scene, Chen Fan was also a little surprised. He had truly misjudged the examinee''s character, the gentle and quiet Lord Holy Maiden also had such a ruthless side. This could not be called cruel. In Chen Fan''s opinion, Nangong Xuan ought to have this kind of method in order to be able to secure her position in the Holy Maiden. A pure and weak Little White, who was always casually bullied within the Cultivation Realm, not to mention the extremely bizarre Hua Ding Sect; God knows what those elders were thinking. C102 Sssii! * A ray of sword light flashed by once again, slicing through the air as a long fissure appeared right after. Sun Changling wanted to use this method to stop Chen Fan. The latter didn''t have any offensive moves, only striding forward with large strides. A blazing light appeared around his body, even more resplendent than the body of the sword. Wherever he went, there would definitely be Talisman dancing in the air. It was extremely gorgeous and all the Sword Intent failed. As though an illusion had appeared in front of his eyes, Sun Changling had never failed to defend his psychological defenses so quickly. The Lex Sabre that he relied on the most on was not as convenient as metal. Only when forced did he think of a way to kill the enemy that would inflict a thousand damage on himself. He risked everything to endure the backlash of the turbulence of the battle to create an opportunity for himself to escape the battle. This time, he made the right bet. Even with the help of the Three Holy Arts, Chen Fan could not ignore the spatial tear, so he stayed there for a while. Sun Changling was completely restrained by Chen Fan, it took him a lot of effort to finally get away, he never thought that he would have to face Nangong Xuan''s attack again. At this moment, she no longer had the appearance of a Holy Maiden, and was simply like a female tyrannosaur. After getting rid of those pitiful bugs, he stood at the side and watched Chen Fan fight with Sun Changling. He had already felt the itch in his hands a long time ago, so he directly inserted himself into the battle. He did not care about activating the Spiritual Energy anymore, and revealed two long whip images. Using the power from his hands, he raised the huge seal and smashed it towards Sun Changling. Originally, he wanted to chase after Chen Fan, but in the end, he had to learn from them instead. This made him feel the most depressed. Just as he was thinking about this, his vision suddenly turned black. He subconsciously looked up and realized that he had been locked onto by the seal. Even the ground was covered in shadows. With Nangong Xuan''s support, her body constantly trembled, and even the surrounding space seemed to have been destroyed, with no way to retreat at all. You forced me to do this! Sun Changling roared out. Ever since he had entered the Yuan Sect, he had been fully aware of the danger. He had previously trained in a forbidden technique, but he had never displayed it in public. As the sound of his voice faded, an overwhelming pressure burst forth from within his body. Countless rays of divine light descended from the skies, covering more than half of the sky in an extremely ferocious manner. Even the huge seal felt a great resistance when it fell. It was as if it fell into the depths of a swamp, and its speed was incomparably slow. Faintly, a human figure formed on top of Sun Changling''s head, looking no different from him, strands of the energy swirled around, suppressing Nangong Xuan who was at the head of the group. This was not a simple pressure. It was as vast as a ocean, majestic to the point that it did not seem like the power Sun Changling''s body could wield. As he waved his sword again, the feeling he gave off was completely different than when he was on the outside. He was controlling the vast ocean as waves flowed unceasingly. On the other hand, Nangong Xuan was just an insignificant boat, and in an instant she was in danger of being subverted. You step back first, I''ll deal with this kid. It looks like he still has some tricks up his sleeve. Chen Fan took the initiative to step forward, but how could Nangong Xuan listen to him? He flew into the air early on, his black hair fluttering in the wind, making his look like a female war god. Rumble rumble rumble! His face was solemn, and his expression was a bit more serious. His hands were clasped together, and each of his meridians were shining. In the end, they shone on that large seal''s surface. Similarly, the sound of water flowing was resounding in her body. For the first time, she revealed the strong reserve of Spiritual Energy in the Holy Maiden. Compared to the vast ocean outside, it was much more intimidating. No matter how lively the disturbance was, there was always something as unmoving as a mountain. Nangong Xuan very calmly moved her feet, lifted and descended, and all of the waves in front of him were imperceptibly flattened, as they were swept away by the large seal in front of him. At the same time, Chen Fan felt that he could no longer continue staying in this place. Otherwise, he would never be able to take off his hat. He looked even more calm as he leisurely stepped into the range of Sun Changling''s domain and faced the vast ocean so that he could truly experience just how terrifying it was. The back of the wave was mixed with a light silver Sword Intent. If a normal person was not careful, they would be sliced into countless pieces. He knew that he could not delay any longer. He flew to Sun Changling''s side with a swoosh, and extended his palm towards the figure, not caring about the latter at all. Not only did they completely ignore him, the fact that the Lex Sabre was stuck between two of his fingers was more than enough to suppress all his anger. She could only watch as her treasure, which she had been refining for so long, was taken away by Chen Fan like a little chick, completely unable to resist. Just today, after Sun Changling had become a direct disciple, his two years of self-confidence had been completely shattered. In his eyes, it was fine if this old man did not die, but his cultivation must be very high at half of his age, and he could totally use Hu Mu''s wrong judgement as an explanation. However, Nangong Xuan only looked to be around twenty years old, and the degree of her tyrannical stomp was not weaker than those young disciples with the strongest Yuan Sect. This was the key that made Sun Changling feel despair. Initially, he thought that he wouldn''t be a far cry from those favored by the heavens. However, the truth was as cruel as he thought. With his trump card revealed, he was wiped clean in just a short span of twenty breaths. This sword is not bad. This old man will accept it. Chen Fan was not the least bit courteous, he threatened as he made a chopping motion, then forcefully sealed the engravings on the sword. When you get back, remember to tell those old guys that if they want to send me any more treasures, I won''t refuse any of them, but they have to be prepared to lose. Since he said that, he definitely wouldn''t think that way, but Chen Fan had to be stubborn, so as to not embarrass Supreme Wu Tian. Moreover, in this battle, it was really depressing for Nangong Xuan to be able to win every battle. Okay, thank you for not killing me, I will pass the message to Sect Leader and the few elders. Sun Changling was decisive, it was better than anything to be able to hold on to his little life. He turned around and called the few attendants over, and he immediately turned back to Yuan Sect. If nothing unexpected happened, they would definitely be sent out again to search for traces of Chen Fan. It was unknown whether he would be able to survive or not. How about it, do you still want me to follow you? This Holy Maiden is not some vase. Nangong Xuan said smugly, showing off to Chen Fan. She had to admit that her battle accomplishments were great, and she was much stronger than the latter. You''re not a vase. You''re a magic bottle. Chen Fan said in a faint voice. Perhaps even Nangong Yi had never expected that his precious granddaughter, whom he had protected for such a long time, would go crazy in such a terrifying manner. Hmph, this strange disease that didn''t come because of no reason has locked me up for twenty years. Since I finally got the chance to play outside with great difficulty, I naturally have to enjoy myself a little. In Nangong Xuan''s heart, she treated this escape as entertainment, maybe the novelty had not passed yet. C103 Let''s go, in the future I will count on the help of the female hero. At this point, what else could Chen Fan say? He had been counting on the trump cards that Nangong Xuan had, and to put it bluntly, they were forbidden artifact treasures that he had brought with him using his Hua Ding Sect. From the looks of it, he seemed to have forgotten one thing. When he first saw this Holy Maiden, he was shocked by her half-step Core Condensating cultivation. Even if Chen Fan were to use his full strength, under the premise that he did not use any Dao Burning Furnace, it would not necessarily be possible to obtain any benefits from Nangong Xuan. Tch, he''s the Holy Maiden, alright? This way of calling him is too old-fashioned, it''s easy to cause misunderstandings. Nangong Xuan curled her lips. It wasn''t a big deal for her to show her face, after all, she had been ugly for twenty years. Merely, the moment Nangong Yi set his eyes on the Holy Maiden, it meant that he had to insulate many things from her presence. He was destined not to be able to touch it in his entire life, and this could be compared to the word ''hero'' ¡­ The two of them continued to run. Although they did not have any purpose, at the very least, their first victory brought them a lot of confidence. They left the area governed by the Yuan Sect with their fastest speed, and along the way, they provided ''widespread favors''. Not only did they smash down their Domain Gate with huge amounts of gold, all the Spatial Channel in the way were unobstructed. Furthermore, he even specially brought out close to twenty thousand Spiritual Stone and found cultivators of similar cultivation level. Along the way, there were at least ten or so disguised individuals. As long as they could run a hundred miles away, they would be able to obtain rich rewards. Naturally, there would be a large number of Zheng Qiang. It was just a trivial matter of no importance to them, so they didn''t have to bear any responsibility at all. They thought that some young master was playing around, and didn''t even have to think that it would have anything to do with Yuan Sect. Even someone as strong as the Third Elder would not necessarily be able to find traces of Chen Fan in such a suspicious array. I heard no, the Master Gu seems to have run away! When did this happen? How come I didn''t know? Sect that had just left in the morning seemed to have something to do with the Third Elder. Now they were preparing to capture him again. The good news would not go out, the bad news spread for thousands of miles. Just as Chen Fan left, the Yuan Sect behind started spreading, with regards to his movements and all kinds of rumors, it could be said that all of them had different opinions. Almost all the disciples in the sect were discussing this matter, most of them seemed to be very confident, as if they had just heard the news from the Sect Leader. Looking at his mysterious face, not being sent out to kill Chen Fan, it was truly a pity for him to have so much energy on his hands. What''s going on? Didn''t the Master Gu help us open up the Void Tomb, with such a huge help, and even accept a position of reverend master? Why did he go and capture him? There seemed to be news from the Hua Ding Sect, saying that this Master Gu was a scammer, and had already lured away many of their Sect. What you said was true, Master Gu had asked for so many Spiritual Stone in front of us, there must be even more rewards behind all of this, it must have been exposed by the elders. In the past, when similar troubles occurred, there would always be a Great Elder responsible for changing the direction of the rumors. In the end, he would personally step in and suppress those false rumors. However, this time was different. The Third Elder was the first to act, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and used all sorts of connections to seal off the matter of the small treasury being robbed. He even ordered many of the inner disciples, who were usually supported by the Third Elder to spread lies that would benefit him, to prepare for the future. If everything went as expected, a huge disturbance was coming up and many disciples with sensitive Yuan Sect were aware of it. The main issue was that new great reverend, who had created too many things in this period of time. From the strange reactions of the higher-ups, it was possible to deduce some clues. In the past, when they encountered any small fights, they had never been so cautious. It was obvious that they wanted to use their real abilities. In the imposing palace at the deepest part, Sect Leader and the few elders were all gathered. Looking down at Sun Changling who had a dejected face and no good anywhere on his body, the atmosphere seemed to be frozen. What''s going on, that old fellow only had Foundation Building Stage, why did he become like this? Fifth Elder''s face was filled with anger. He had originally thought highly of this kid, but now he had brought him such a disaster. It was truly a disgrace. Master, this is too much of a coincidence. Sun Changling tried his best to explain, but he felt that he was similarly aggrieved. Don''t call me Master, this old one has never had a disciple like you before! The Fifth Elder''s anger was not light, and she directly interrupted him. Sun Changling, no matter what, you have been a direct disciple of the Sect for so many years, yet you can''t even catch an old fellow, and have wasted my Yuan Sect''s reputation for nothing. In terms of anger, the Third Elder was the one who was burning the fiercest. Only the heavens knew how furious he had been when his small treasury was robbed. Right now, everything seemed to be incomparably irritable. Grandfather, this matter cannot be blamed on Senior Brother Sun, I was the one who personally requested him to go chase after us, I originally wanted to help you take back the Spiritual Being. Hu Mu was also standing at the side and could not help but say. Sigh! At this point, what else could the Third Elder say, he couldn''t blame his Grandson. It had taken him great effort to save himself from this life or death situation. If something were to happen again, no Godly Doctor would be willing to extend his life. Sect Leader, Elders, that old fellow has another female follower by his side. Her cultivation is high, at least not weaker than mine, and that''s why she was defeated and left. Sun Changling finally had a chance to explain. As a direct disciple, he went out with a bunch of inner disciples to hunt them down, but it was all messed up, no matter how one put it, he had lost a lot of face. What? If that was the case, then he must have planned this beforehand. He had even arranged for the people who came to assist him. Did he really have a helper? This old man was too scheming. Where did he come from? Hearing this, the group of experts were greatly shocked. They had never imagined that they would still be able to obtain unexpected information. When they thought about the several tens of millions of Spiritual Stone that they gave to Chen Fan, in addition to the treatment they received as guests during this period of time, they became extremely furious and were solidly tricked by others. Have you seen clearly what that female cultivator looks like? Could it be that this is a spy from my Yuan Sect? The Great Clan Elder asked. Chen Fan had travelled quite a bit within the Yuan Sect these few days, so he was most likely discussing with his accomplices. Impossible, my Yuan Sect''s disciples are all good sons, how could they do such a thing as bullying their masters to exterminate their ancestors. The fourth elder retorted. The other elders were lost in their own thoughts. Reporting to Great Elder, that woman''s cultivation is extremely high, and she does not seem to be more than 20 years old. This disciple has to go all out in order to have the power to protect herself. Sun Changling wanted to lie, but then he remembered that the other junior brothers had seen the entire story, so they could only tell it to him. C104 As a direct disciple of the Yuan Sect, among the most powerful young cultivators of the current number one sect, they would definitely be mocked by their peers if they were to be made into such a state by a woman. But she is probably not someone from my Yuan Sect. Disciple has never seen her before. Hearing Sun Changling''s words, the few elders could not help but calm down. It was only up to the disciples who did not use their own Spiritual Peak. I have a good idea of Changling''s strength. Even ordinary peak Foundation Establishment experts would have to face it head on. If you are not able to win against that female cultivator, could it be that she has already stepped into the Core Formation Stage? Before he could finish his sentence, the Fifth Elder felt that it was somewhat absurd. It was not even valid at all. This was even more impossible. Forget about whether there were any Young Outstanding s in the Cultivation Realm who had reached this level or not, if they truly had this kind of talent, why would they rush and flee with that old fellow? Although guessing the opponent''s strength was more beneficial to the pursuit, but the former''s guesses were a bit out of the ordinary. If it were other Sect, perhaps they would still be hesitant about it but in terms of Yuan Sect, they themselves represent the peak level of Cultivation Realm. How could a random Rogue Cultivator pop out of nowhere, and become even more abnormal than the genius disciples that their countless Spiritual Being resources had created? Are you sure that the female cultivator was the one who acted, and not the Gu family''s assistant? Even the Sect Leader found it unbelievable. Even if this disciple was thousands of mistakes, the root of them all lies in that fellow. Otherwise, I would definitely be able to capture that ancient monster. Sun Changling wanted to cry, but no tears would come out. He also didn''t want to admit the truth. It should be somewhere between the peak of Foundation Establishment and half-step Core Condensating. It might be possible that some senior had hidden his body and was trying to confuse us. As expected of someone older, the Great Clan Elder said in a deep voice as he roughly judged Nangong Xuan''s strength. It was a pity that he could not determine whether he was truly young or not. Otherwise, there really were very few people in the entire North Domain, and it would be very easy to uncover his true identity. Sect Leader, you cannot continue to wait like this. He alone caused so much damage to my Yuan Sect, you must severely punish him without slack, and make him pay the price with his life! The Third Elder requested again, his chest burning with a ball of fire. He really wanted to burn Chen Fan to death on the spot, that would barely be enough to dispel his hatred. Our sect has already sent out people to investigate and we should have an answer soon. Junior Brothers, don''t worry. In order to avoid anger from the Third Elder, which would harm the image of his Yuan Sect, the Sect Leader had personally entrusted two strong protectors to search for him in the direction that Sun Changling pointed to. Third Junior, at this time, you should try your best to stay awake. Don''t let your anger rush to your head. How could I not be annoyed? Hundreds of years of my wealth have been hollowed out, and that''s the work of this old man for most of my life! In front of so many higher-ups, the Third Elder was gnashing his teeth and cursing. He could even guess that after this matter spread, those ordinary disciples would laugh at him for no reason. A dignified Yuan Sect Elder with a high position and authority, yet couldn''t even see such an obvious hole, and still resolutely entered. Sect Leader, Protector Fu had sent a message back. At this time, a young disciple walked in and reported. Tell me what the situation is! A few elders and Sect Leader s looked through the crowd. It''s been said that within a thousand kilometers from my Yuan Sect, a few tens of elders dressed in similar attire appeared. Beside them was a female cultivator, it should be ¡­ Master Gu... They left behind methods to affect our investigation ¡­ This young disciple actually felt that this form of address was inappropriate. After thinking for a while, he could only call her this. Bastard! The Third Elder cursed silently. Chen Fan escaping was directly related to him. My Yuan Sect''s reputation cannot be trampled upon by an old fellow like this ¡­ Sect Leader still did not let the Third Elder take action, he only issued a series of orders. Very soon, the entire atmosphere of the Yuan Sect started to become tense. Along with the various protective experts, they took turns to check on Chen Fan''s movements within the Sect. In order to capture the latter as soon as possible, he had even divided into several teams to chase after him. And those methods that he used were quickly overthrown by the powerful Sect. After the people who were previously hired by the Spiritual Stone knew about the relationship between the Yuan Sect and them, they rushed to report Chen Fan''s whereabouts to the higher ups. Time was not passing very quickly, especially for Chen Fan who was on the way to escape. He wished he could find a hole to hide in. Or he could use his Supreme Force like before to force himself to erase everyone''s memories and give him the identity of a ''Master Gu'' with clean words. He might even be able to continue trying to trick people in the Yuan Sect, but unfortunately, the grand occasion was no longer there, and he only talked about it after thinking for a while. What was worth mentioning was that Nangong Xuan had brought Chen Fan quite a few accidents, ones that were enough to cause her ten thousand year old monster to have mixed emotions. Initially, the two had wanted to go out day and night to experience the true feeling of a night owl, but they thought that their actions were too abnormal and would instead attract the attention of Yuan Sect scouts. As a result, he specially selected a large number of towns and sneaked in quietly. After a period of time, he left with the crowd, leaving no traces behind. Not only did she manage to get someone who could talk while she was escaping, Nangong Xuan was also persistently cultivating, mastering at least five or six high grade profound arts techniques. Furthermore, they have all reached the great perfection stage. From her body, Chen Fan once again realised the limitless wisdom of the ancient people, being even more hardworking than the talented people. As Chen Fan had always been a smart and proud person who maintained his image of being arrogant and proud in front of Nangong Yi, Nangong Xuan would occasionally ask him a few questions. This was what truly surprised Chen Fan, although this young lady was still young, she had a clear plan for her own path, and her insights in cultivation were also exceptional. With such a tricky angle, Chen Fan had no choice but to turn to the Deer God to save the life that he had spent so much effort to create. A woman''s ruthlessness was truly terrifying. This was the experience that Chen Fan had summed up himself. Combined with his ten thousand years of real experience, he suddenly understood why he had such a natural resistance towards this kind of creature. As a Martial Saint, his body instinctively resisted danger. Oh, a woman is a tiger. Just watch over him and don''t let him eat you. The Deer God gave a weird laugh, and reminded him with a hidden meaning. Judging from the short three days of escaping, the relationship between Chen Fan and the other party had deepened rapidly, not to mention that the two of them even had a so-called marriage alliance. If Nangong Yi found out about this, he would definitely be extremely happy. He was worried that he wouldn''t have the chance to find a suitable son-in-law, so even if he was hunted down, it was worth being happy about. C105 You two bastards actually ran all the way here! A cold voice came out, and the person who appeared in the air was the Protector Lv from before. When Chen Fan had first opened the Void Tomb, he was suspicious of him. Little Sun, this old man has things to do, why are you blocking my way? Hurry up and get out of my way. Chen Fan stood up and scolded Sun Hongfa with a serious look. Hearing this, even Nangong Xuan was a little speechless. Even at a time like this, he was still putting on the airs of a reverend master, and the joke was a little too big. You old bastard, to think that my Yuan Sect would give you such preferential treatment, to think that you would actually do such a despicable and shameless thing. Protector Lv was not lightly angered, but there was some excitement in his heart, the kind that did not come from nowhere. Although the Third Elder had blocked it in time, the news of his little treasury being lost had still spread amongst the higher ups of the Yuan Sect. On the surface, he didn''t say anything, but there were flowers blooming behind his back. Because of his close relationship with the Great Clan Elder, this Protector Lv had been brought up by him, intentionally or unintentionally. He told him about this matter specifically, and that as long as he could capture Chen Fan and bring him back, he would be bestowed with rewards by the Third Elder. It was precisely because of this that he came here alone, leaving aside the other protectors and disciples sent by the Sect Leader, in order to take this credit for himself. You little rascal, to think that you would dare to make a move on me, you are truly wishful thinking. Sending a random maid over to knock you down. Chen Fan unceremoniously crooked his finger and said provocatively. Nangong Xuan:... But this time, even the heroic lady was not, directly demoted from Holy Maiden to a maid, in Chen Fan''s words, it was just a title anyways. At this point, this protector doesn''t want to bother you too much either. I''ll give you two choices now, either hand over all your Spiritual Stone and treasures, and then obediently return with me. Protector Lv was not in a hurry to make his move. He was still scheming in his mind, and thus said to Chen Fan. Either you will suffer a very ugly fate, or I will not show you any mercy. I promise you, you will not even be left with a complete corpse. Although these words sounded like a threat, they still left more leeway. Protector Lv had purposely said this to indicate that they could use Spiritual Stone s to exchange for their lives. It was similar to the Sun Changling from before, except that other than his contribution, he also wanted to earn more money and gain more benefits from Chen Fan. That''s such a coincidence. Hades and I have a pretty good relationship. Why don''t we discuss this with her and get you down. Chen Fan happily retaliated, he was also thinking of a countermeasure in his heart. This guy''s strength was too strong, he was far too strong, he could easily crush Nangong Xuan and himself. This protector has no time to chat with you. Hurry up and take out the Third Elder''s item. Protector Lv righteously scolded loudly. On the surface, it looked impressive, but in his heart, he was thinking about how to act despicably. Although he did not know how rich the Third Elder''s family wealth was, he was, after all, a genuine Senior Expert. The Spiritual Being that he had accumulated over the hundreds of years were definitely beyond imagination. And at this moment, the entire little treasury was on Chen Fan''s body. Protector Lv wanted to use his life to threaten him, to force him to release some of the energy, and to simply take out one or two Spiritual Being s to allow him to reap a lot of benefits. As for whether he would accidentally let Chen Fan go when he was counting the Spiritual Being, that was hard to say. If you really plan on making a move, then why did you need to send me back to Yuan Sect? Thinking about it, it''s even better to directly send my head to the Third Elder. Chen Fan shook his head, the other party''s scheme was too simple in his eyes, one sentence was enough to see through him, when Protector Lv was in too much of a hurry, he had exposed himself instead. It''s impossible to see from me, the Spiritual Being that this old man painstakingly got was obtained using my ability, if you have the ability, then go and get it once. Since they wanted to fight, then let''s do it happily. Chen Fan had immediately revealed Elder Sun''s sinister intentions, which undoubtedly enraged him. This was no different from when he was young and was discovered by adults when he stole sweets. He was similarly infuriated, but not only did he not meet Protector Lv''s requirements, he even poked a sore spot. But didn''t you just infuriate him by saying that... Since she could use tens of thousands of Spiritual Stone in exchange for a chance to escape, why not give it a try ¡­ Nangong Xuan said to herself somewhat helplessly. Thinking about it this way, you are wrong. Guarding spearmen like them can obtain at least a few hundred thousand additional Spiritual Stone s every year. Chen Fan was confident and righteous, with a feeling of righteousness that added on to his body, he still felt sorry for the things inside the Storage Bag. Hmph, you two shameless bastards, die! Protector Lv could no longer hold back the anger in his heart. He raised his hand and caused a violent wind to blow, the surrounding space was quickly covered with the pure Spiritual Energy, the moment he attacked, he shook the heavens and earth. To be able to become a Yuan Sect Protector, one had to at least be a Core Formation Stage cultivator. And this person, even though he was in the middle to lower rankings, he was already an expert with the Sixth Transformation of the Core Condensating. Wait a minute, how can we be shameless? You''re talking nonsense, but you have to be responsible... A strong wave swept out like the tide. Protector Lv did not need to listen to his nagging. Come on, we''re going to die anyway, let''s see who''s afraid of who?! Nangong Xuan was already eager to give it a try, and shouted rather rudely. Without the restriction of being a Holy Maiden, she had released her nature. Both of his eyes stared wide open as he shot out two long shadows of the whip, which then flew out and wrapped around the giant palm. On the other side, Chen Fan quickly maneuvered the Spiritual Energy s in his body, the Three Holy Arts finally came in use, and the punches he made turned into a myriad of afterimages, combining with Nangong Xuan''s whip afterimages to release wind at the same time. His punches were so fast that it was almost impossible to see with the naked eye. They were densely packed and unbroken, firmly resisting the huge palm''s downward trend. The slender shadows of the whip were like maggots attached to bones. After coming into contact with the enormous palm, they climbed up at an incomparable speed and forcefully entangled it, as if there was a mess. Even though he had been instructed to make his second move, the two of them had a very good teamwork. Other than Chen Fan''s experience of clearing Nangong Xuan''s grudges, it was just a temporary combination of their talent. Under the cluster of Protector Lv, the huge palm continued to struggle, but the deeper it sunk, the deeper it became. It was fundamentally impossible for it to escape the entanglement of the whip images, and in the end, it chose to directly explode. Bang! A loud sound was heard, Protector Lv did not care about the loss of the Spiritual Energy, and the whip was immediately pulled back, the aftermath was also quickly suppressed, and did not cause too much of a commotion. You truly do have some ability, but unfortunately, you walked the wrong path, and even dragged this little girl into it. Protector Lv''s voice was ice-cold, his first probing attack did not exceed his expectations. It seemed that these two fellows were indeed in the Foundation Establishment Mirror World. In this old man''s opinion, you''re not bad either, but it''s a pity that your Sect has improved and you still have to waste half of your life. Chen Fan returned those words back to him. If she wanted to argue with him, he wouldn''t be qualified even if he cultivated for a few hundred years. Old thing, you''ve truly gotten tired of living. This Protector will grant you his wish. Protector Lv bellowed, and then gathered the pure Spiritual Energy once more. At the same time, there were also unparalleled Spiritual Consciousness that charged out as well, transforming into pythons. They surrounded the area in a circle, and were so condensed that it was practically fake. A hazy mist appeared, filling every inch of space. A faint red imprint emerged, and the cold intent in Protector Lv''s tone directly spread outwards. The temperature of this area suddenly dropped, and struck straight into the depths of his soul. Even Chen Fan could feel a bone-piercing aura, wanting to freeze him into an ice stick. His two wings fluttered in the air, and countless Lingyu flew out to resist the pythons formed by the Spiritual Consciousness. At the same time, he laid out a layer of clear splendor on the surface of his body. The Spiritual Consciousness''s attack that the Protector Lv had launched was completely out of the original intention to torture Chen Fan as much as possible. Hundreds and thousands of Lingyu s interweaved in the air, blotting out the sky and covering the earth. Their might was frightening, as if they wanted to swallow those pythons whole. Nangong Xuan, who was at the side, was already prepared. With a series of movements of her hands, she produced a few strange Seal s, which looked extremely profound when they were in their Talisman state. In the end, a mountain shadow appeared in front of him, emitting an extremely obscure aura. There were even mysterious engravings on it, and various patterns of flowers, birds, fish, and bugs appeared. This was an absolute art from the Hua Ding Sect. After the Spiritual Energy had been compressed to a certain state, it was incomparably hard and could be treated as a true mountain that was pressing down. Its weight could also reach a hundred thousand kilograms. Even though they were very far apart, with large cracks appearing on the surrounding ground, Chen Fan still felt a strong pressure, and Protector Lv was the one who bore the brunt of the pressure. Despite his young age, he already had a head of white hair and was surrounded by the wind. His face was full of wrinkles and he had a dazed look on his face. Furthermore, his emaciated body was floating in the air independently, giving off a sense of desolation. If one didn''t know, they would think that it was Chen Fan and Nangong Xuan bullying the elderly. Until now, the Spiritual Consciousness he activated had not been destroyed, and had steadily obtained support from the energy. Along with Lingyu''s constant pestering, it indirectly prevented him from releasing more Spiritual Consciousness. Even though the Seven Transformations of Starry Sky was not very useful for battle, at the critical moment, it could delay the opponent''s killing move. If he was able to execute the Spiritual Consciousness attack, the two of them would probably be defeated even faster. C106 The mountain shadow had still not reached the Protector Lv and was blocked by his sleeves at the last moment. However, it was still forced back a few steps and staggered for a bit, almost falling to the ground. Old thing, I didn''t expect you to be so weak and have a maid by your side that can make this protector look at you in the eye. He extended his finger out once again, releasing a huge amount of spiritual light, like a vast ocean that was churning non-stop, the pressure of the wave was extremely strong, Protector Lv placed most of his attention on Nangong Xuan. Towards this, Chen Fan suffered a huge blow, and couldn''t even speak because of it. Just now, he never thought that there would be a day where people would humiliate him like this, even the current Holy Maiden would not be able to stand up to his mannerism. Furthermore, he was currently facing a great enemy. Like a female war god, he rushed out, not fearing that the other party was a protector of the Yuan Sect, and once again gathered up an even larger mountain shadow. It had to be said that Nangong Xuan was definitely one of the best in the current young generation of Cultivation Realm. Although it was just a simple transformation of the void into reality, the requirements of Spiritual Energy were especially harsh. The mountain shadow carried a surging battle intent, as if it had released some ferocious beast that had been covered in dust for a long time, a terrifying aura spread out in all directions, and indeed was stabbed by Protector Lv''s words. The power of his finger was worn out in an instant. Facing this enormous and world-shaking mountain shadow, it seemed as if the nearby space had been moved, and was completely synchronized to the frequency of Nangong Xuan''s attacks. More cracks appeared as more streams of energy surged. It was hard to know how many cracks there were. In short, there were dazzling streaks of silver light dancing about wantonly, occupying half of the battle circle while the rest were under the shadow of the small mountain. Even someone as strong as the Protector Lv was caught somewhat unprepared. Inexplicably surrounded by so many spatial fragments, a violent explosion occurred beside him. How could Nangong Xuan let go of such a great opportunity? Without hesitation, she blew her way through the mountain, attempting to press herself onto the former''s body again. As long as they could take up a corner of her clothes, they would have a chance of escape. She successfully schemed against the Protector Lv once. First, she used the mountain shadow as a cover, piercing through space to attract the attention of those fragments. Not only did she divert the latter''s attention, she even brought the mountain closer. Under the twin sets of control, everything was completed in the span of a few breaths, showing the deep scheming and incomparable reaction speed of this Holy Maiden. It could even be seen how extraordinary Nangong Yi was back then. Well, I''ll help the little girl. Chen Fan comforted himself. He shot out like an arrow, his palm turned into a blade, the Three Holy Arts brought about a mysterious force in the center of his palm, as he struck towards Protector Lv''s Holy Spirit Mountain. Very smart, they quickly came up with a response. As they muttered to themselves, the few pythons that were originally meant to be in a stalemate with each other suddenly enlarged to the thickness of an adult''s waist. The blood mist became denser as the ocean continued to expand. It soon engulfed Chen Fan and if not for the fact that his body was sturdy, he would have been smashed to smithereens. Every strand of mist exuded a cold aura, and even went through the pores into the body, causing the two of them to feel as though their meridians were frozen, and the circulation of the Spiritual Energy became slower and slower. The attack was already out. The mountain was forcefully suspended in the air and did not have enough energy supply. Instead, it was surrounded by the fog. Ice began to appear in the sky. Ka-cha! * Ka-cha! * Ka-cha! * Even though they were only insignificant little particles, they were scattered across the entire space and, at the same time that they turned blood-red, they had an extremely corrosive effect on Chen Fan''s body and the mountain. When a drop of water condensed into an ice cube, it would take away a large amount of heat from the world. The trick with shipping this energy was to once again release the energy contained within the ice cube. The ice shards that covered the skies and the ground were moving, but they did not create the kind of environment in the world of ice and snow. As long as they touched the body or the body, they would have to consume even more Spiritual Energy s to counterattack. Otherwise, they would have to obediently wait to be frozen into ice sticks. After all, neither of them had the strength to suppress Protector Lv. The situation changed drastically. In the first moment, he still had the illusion that he had the upper hand, but in the end, he was immediately pushed back by the Protector Lv. Chen Fan could only rely on his two wings to barely protect himself. The mountain that had previously expanded to ten feet in size also shrunk a lot after being continuously worn down. The two of them felt as if they had been stuck in a quagmire, unable to advance or retreat. They were completely controlled by the bloody mist. If I don''t show my might, do you really think I''m a sick cat? Explode for me! Just as Nan Gong Xuan finished speaking, many cracks suddenly appeared on the mountain and at a tricky angle that even the Protector Lv could not have predicted, they all rushed over to his back. Bang! The mountain shadow that had been brewing for a while suddenly exploded, and the boundless energy that had been stored in his heart rushed out at this moment. The space around him was torn apart, this kind of might was definitely not inferior to a small mountain collapsing. This was a huge impact that even the air couldn''t withstand, let alone a mortal body. A radius of five kilometers was completely occupied by the chaotic Spiritual Energy. The sound of the wind whistled, and countless Talisman s raged back and forth in the sky, completely out of control. Chen Fan had sent out his Dao Burning Furnace long ago, and dropped down an endless amount of light to protect the two. There were at least a dozen whirlpools, from the ground to the sky, and even the clouds were thrown into chaos, like boiling water in a pot. Even if it was Protector Lv, he could not do it alone. He tried to stabilize himself, but just as he stretched out his palm, a piece of flesh was sliced off. Fortunately, he recovered in time and could only use his Light Shield to protect himself. However, a bloody hole had appeared on his back, and the front and back were bright. The force from the mountain''s explosion directly impacted the old man''s body, and even when the aftermath spread, it still pierced through the old man''s body with him as the center. This magic treasure of yours is not bad, but what is this material? Nangong Xuan asked softly, interested in the Dao Burning Furnace above her head. She had originally planned to take out her jade platform and escape by force. She never thought that she would be pulled down by Chen Fan. The key thing was that this object was neither gold nor silver, neither copper nor iron. Even among all the Spiritual Being she had seen in the Hua Ding Sect, not a single one was comparable to it. It was naturally a good treasure, obtaining a portion of the Heavenly Dao clone. It was even more powerful than the treasures of the Yuan Sect. Chen Fan''s face was full of mystery, he did not lie or hide anything, but no one believed him when he said those words. Tsk, it''s fine if you don''t want to tell me. I will definitely know in the future. Nangong Xuan rolled her eyes. Ever since the day Chen Fan cured the strange illness on her face, she had made up his mind to go out and train. Furthermore, he had made a good plan to increase his knowledge and make himself understand the materials used to make Dao Burning Furnace s. While they were speaking, the aftermath of the explosion had gradually dissipated. The two of them stared fixedly in the direction of the Protector Lv. Instead, he was even angered. Waving his sleeves, he controlled the gale and stirred up the soil, causing the corners of his clothes to flutter as his killing intent towards Chen Fan grew stronger and stronger. Melting Bone Hand! With him being a stately Yuan Sect Protector expert, he would not end up like Sun Changling, who had battled bitterly for so long, unable to take down even these two little fellows. In terms of cultivation level, Chen Fan was only a junior in front of him. In terms of reality, he would probably have to greet his foster grandfather like Hu Mu. The two palms seemed to be given a separate life, as they nimbly swam around in the blood mist. As they moved back and forth, a Talisman would appear every time it landed. Under Chen Fan and Luo Hua City Mistress''s watchful eyes, bone palms suddenly appeared, there were no traces of flesh or blood at all, the fingers were all opened, it was extremely terrifying. The number of hands was numerous, and they also absorbed the bloody mist. Although the world was much clearer, it was also much more eerie. What was most unbelievable was that, as a protector of the righteous great Dao''s Yuan Sect, he actually also knew how to rest?! To train in this sort of method, this sort of evil method had always been looked down upon by them. I thought I was some powerful being who, while I was in the Yuan Sect, was reduced to using such a demonic technique, trash. Chen Fan said in disdain, not giving up any opportunity to mock Protector Lv. When the Bone Palm struck out, it was no different from the Lingyu of the Seven Transformations of Tianyu. The only difference was that its size and aura were both much sharper than before, and it quickly struck onto the side of the Dao Burning Furnace, splattering out strings of sparks. This kind of unique technique was extremely terrifying, and it was forbidden even within Yuan Sect. Very few people could use it, and it was practically the destruction of humanity for opponents. Those Talisman s all had a special distribution of nodes, secretly transforming the surrounding space into an invisible cage, the Bone Palm devoured everything, whether it was the flesh or the Spiritual Energy, both could be completely wiped out. If one cultivated to the pinnacle of cultivation, they could even turn this entire stretch of the world into nothingness. This was also the reason why it could not be randomly displayed within the Sect. It was easy to destroy the heavens and the earth, and there were many strong practitioners within the Yuan Sect. If they truly released their anger, and were unable to restrain it, it would definitely implicate many innocent disciples. Protector Lv used his terrifying strength. Each of his bone palms were able to easily break through the defense of a Mortal Realm cultivator. Bang! Bang! Bang! A dull sound came out. Those bone palms were indeed approaching menacingly, but they were unable to break through the layer of light from the Dao Burning Furnace. It seemed soft, but it had the might of a thousand kilograms. As for the sparks that accumulated after the impact, they were almost burnt into flames. The patterns on the Dao Burning Furnace''s surface were still strong, but slightly dimmer. According to this situation, it would take at least another two to four hours before the battle would end. Then, the Dao Burning Furnace''s heaven defying defense was finally revealed, causing Chen Fan to be satisfied. Just what was this thing? Why couldn''t even the Melting Bone Hand do anything about it? After seeing that scene, Protector Lv appeared to be equally confused as Nangong Xuan, even suspecting that he had neglected cultivation during this period, and his strength had decreased. C107 He is clearly a genuine Golden Core Stage Ranker, and facing a Foundation Building Stage fish, you should be able to pinch him to death easily, but fighting is so difficult. Clang! In the end, the Protector Lv was forced to combine all of his bone palms, making an unprecedented sound. At least a few hundred fingers were constantly grabbing at the Furnace Body. Chen Fan gritted his teeth as he struggled to hold on. The Deer God inside his Zifu Space also helped as they grinded away the white and dense bones, allowing the Furnace Body to finally be able to endure it. and the other two heaved a sigh of relief, but the big stone in their heart was still hanging high in the sky. He had only blocked the old man''s first killing move and had not forced him back. It was impossible to make up for his great advantage in using just one Furnace Body. To be able to force this Protector to such a state, the two of you are worth it. Although he was a little surprised at Chen Fan''s stubborn resistance, the situation of the battle was completely under his control for the Protector Lv. Where else could a mouse that was being watched by a cat run to, it could only run around and do something before it ate it. He immediately patted the Storage Bag by his waist, although he was not as rich as Chen Fan, with his realm that was strong enough to crush everything, the majestic Spiritual Energy instantly activated a Heavy Treasure. The small golden pagoda appeared in the air. It was about a foot in size, and it was divided into seven evenly spaced floors. Its entire body emitted a dazzling radiance, illuminating the surroundings. After leaving Protector Lv''s body, the small golden pagoda rapidly expanded. Along the way, it seemed to be able to swallow even the air, and in the blink of an eye, it was already around ten feet long. It was as if a small mountain had appeared out of nowhere and stood in front of Chen Fan and Yue Yang. However, all of this was useless against the little golden pagoda. The fist and palm strikes that were mixed in with the brilliant divine splendor all dimmed down in front of the golden pagoda. There was no need for Protector Lv to waste any more energy. Crap, this old man is serious. If this goes on, we''ll all be finished! Chen Fan sighed to himself, he should have already expected this to happen. From the moment he decided to steal Third Elder''s little treasury, he had already made the preparations to be hunted down by the entire Expert From Yuan Sect. Of course, it was only in his mind, with a pathetic lack of trump cards. If he really couldn''t do it, then he would just use the firewood and leave. This kind of protector shouldn''t be able to travel a thousand miles in an instant. At that moment, Nangong Xuan showed a superior mental fortitude and calmness, she was not intimidated by her opponent''s strength, and was still thinking of a countermeasure. I already said that unless it''s a last resort, you can''t use those trump cards. Since this old fogey won''t show any mercy, I should show him some of my trump cards instead. Chen Fan shook his head, forcefully using the Three Saint''s power to contend against the golden tower''s light, he was able to hold on for a bit more, but the consumption of his cultivation had reached a terrifying level. Come on, I''m not sure how good you are, but it''s fine to have a soft meal. Deer God couldn''t help but ask from the Zifu Space. He was very clear about Chen Fan''s background and the latter''s temperament ¡ª ¡ª It was a typical case of having face and suffering if one died. It was simply that he did not want to be too weak in front of Nangong Xuan, the problem was that the situation was better than the person, now was not the time to be shameless, if he missed the best chance to use the jade platform, then he would not be able to escape even if he wanted to. F * ck you, just give me another quarter of an hour. Chen Fan had experienced what Protector Lv felt just now and was similarly furious from embarrassment. He was stabbed in the soft spot, but he didn''t have the qualifications to vent it out. He was also waving his wings, and more Lingyu shot out one after another. It was not just a simple replay, it was a fusion of three Saint Force, it was extremely difficult to support and protect the Light Shield. Within a radius of fifteen to sixteen meters, both she and Nangong Xuan were trapped inside. In order to make a marriage charge, they had even specially created a curved state. Rip! The pressure from the golden tower continued to increase as it let out ear-piercing sounds. A large number of Spiritual Energy were being consumed all the time. Nangong Xuan was still able to move more or less, relying on her half-step Core Condensating cultivation, and her exceptionally strong reserves of Spiritual Energy, she could even form hand seals from time to time to retaliate. On the other hand, Chen Fan had completely fallen into a defensive position and could only barely maintain his Light Shield from being shattered. After such a long and intense battle, his physical body was starting to run out of energy. The two of them had never intended to fight and had wholeheartedly wanted to escape, but it was difficult to find an opportunity to do so. In addition to the fact that his body was heavily injured in the previous battle, there was no longer any extra energy left to fight against the golden pagoda. He could only rely on his footwork to continuously dodge, barely dodging. The one surnamed Gu, you call yourself some master, it''s all wrong, the scam and swindler should not have come to my Yuan Sect, it''s not like every Sect is like those idiots. Protector Lv sneered again and again. From his point of view, combining with the news that Master Feng had delivered before, it was definitely because Chen Fan had tasted the sweet taste in Hua Ding Sect, that was why he had the idea of Yuan Sect. You will regret your words in the future. Believe me, this old man has never used words against you. Feeling the chill coming from the beautiful woman beside him, Chen Fan reminded the Protector Lv seriously for the first time. To not touch her sect in front of the Holy Maiden, this could be considered cheating. What a joke, would this protector be afraid of an old swindler like you?! Chen Fan said leisurely, not minding in the slightest that Nangong Xuan had just rolled his eyes. Also, this old man has a name, so I don''t need to call you with the surname Gu. I''m telling you all the elders in Yuan Sect, you should address them as Senior Gu Feng. Pui! Protector Lv really could not imagine why he would treat such a shameless person like this with the etiquette of a junior two days ago. All of the protectors in the sect were like this, almost treating him as their master. Now that they thought about it, it was likely that for a long period of time, all of them would be the shadow of the same person. Someone would be fooled by someone on their own territory. It was ridiculous to the point where it couldn''t be helped. The golden pagoda started to shake, and the dazzling divine light immediately left the body of the pagoda. It followed the trajectory of Chen Fan using the Three Saint Force to surround him, causing his heart to tremble. Several long cracks appeared as the void shattered along the way and at least seven or eight types of energy were mixed within before they all smashed towards Chen Fan and the others. The suppression of the realm was truly difficult to overcome. Protector Lv combined with the deduction of the golden pagoda, were able to directly break through the defense of the Three Sacred Arts. C108 Hua Ding Sect has a type of Earth Escape Technique, if you are worried about the problem of teleporting, we can ¡­ Nangong Xuan whispered into Chen Fan''s ear. Without waiting for him to reply, she immediately handed over a wave of Spiritual Consciousness. With her understanding of the latter, she could quickly comprehend it even at this time. Run, run, we have to run! Chen Fan answered resolutely, as if the fellow who kept delaying and refusing to leave was not him, but a completely different person. Under the Deer God''s consoling, he had already thought it through, this kind of thing was no big deal, since his cultivation level was far lower than Nangong Xuan''s. If they fought on the same level, this Holy Maiden master would not even have the qualifications to stand by his side. After confirming this, Nangong Xuan nodded her head, took out a spirit rune from her sleeve, and quickly warned: Beat in all of your remaining Spiritual Energy, you can help us escape successfully. Based on his unprecedented trust in Nangong Xuan, Chen Fan unhesitantly channeled the last of the power in his body and channeled it all into that light yellow paper. An abnormally weak feeling welled up in his heart. Right now, even if it was a slightly stronger ordinary hunter, they could still beat him down, and even the Dao Burning Furnace was taken away by him. Right at this moment, the talisman exploded with a holy aura. It was majestic and majestic, like a fairy emerging from the mundane world. Rainbow colored spiritual light gushed out, flowing out like a spring. His entire being was filled with a warm and joyous feeling, following that, the two of them became streams of light, shuttling back and forth in the various battle circles of Spiritual Energy and Talisman, the scenery in front of him did not stop for even a breath. Protector Lv sensed their movements and continuously clapped his hands, as well as densely packed wind blade attacks. However, he was unable to keep up with their speed of movement. In the blink of an eye, she had left behind numerous afterimages. Her original body had long since run over thirty meters away, and Nangong Xuan was searching for the most suitable place to enter. Hmph, no one has ever been able to escape under this old man''s pursuit, you all are no exception! Protector Lv snorted coldly once again as he stomped heavily on the ground. Immediately after, spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the ground, and even spread into the air. Now, the figures of Nangong Xuan and Punishing Chen Fan were exposed before the Protector Lv. There was nowhere to run, and if they showed any signs of movement, they would be bound from their feet to the surroundings of their body. No need to panic. When the two of us use the Earth Escape Technique together, we must focus all of our attention. We absolutely cannot be distracted, otherwise, it is very possible that we will be squeezed into meat paste behind our backs. Nangong Xuan''s expression became heavy, this was the first time she tried this method of escaping, since the success of her cultivation, she had never used it before. Puff! When the two powers of the Earth Escape Technique made contact with each other, a mysterious reaction occurred. However, unlike what Shengfan expected, a bottomless chasm appeared beneath their feet and swallowed the two. On the contrary, they had turned into a state of mist and entered the depths of the earth as if they were ethereal clouds. They were not obstructed by the layers of earth, and everything went very smoothly. You still want to run? Stay! Even the palm attack from the Protector Lv, which had created a huge crater of several tens of meters in size, did not affect Chen Fan in the slightest. Once the Spiritual Energy seeped into the ground, it would be quickly dissected. In this instant, Chen Fan felt his vision go black, and he lost control of his entire body. It was as if his internal organs did not exist, and even the flow of his blood had stopped. Those black objects that flashed past were probably rocks that had hidden themselves deep underground. With such skills, it was unknown just how many times they had dived into the ground. The surroundings were completely silent. Aside from their breathing, there was no other sound. It gave her the illusion that time and space had stopped. Don''t be distracted! Nangong Xuan panicked and quickly warned him. Worried that something would happen to him, her little hands held tightly onto Chen Fan. Well, I''m okay, let''s keep running. Just by glancing at the surrounding scenery, his body couldn''t help but be torn. This made Chen Fan a little speechless, he should have tried to find a way to do it more. After all, he would still be hunted down for a long time in the future. With such an expensive forbidden weapon called Domain Gate, it really wasn''t suitable for his current situation. In the eyes of the Protector Lv, those two figures looked like they had transformed into living people. Damned bastards, since you have the ability to say such arrogant words, why are you in such a hurry to run away? The shame of Yuan Sect! Those are just a bunch of motherf * cking bullshit. If you''re going back on your word, you would rather be along with the rats than return to the Sect with me. Gu Feng, you really hurt me! Holding his breath, Protector Lv realized that Chen Fan and''s presence was no longer within ten over kilometers. He could not help but curse loudly, as he did not care about the image of the Sect Ranker at all. After spending so much effort to find them, they were already prepared to fish out extra money. In addition, they were also prepared to make a huge contribution. After fighting for a long time, it looked like they would be able to pull the net back, but in the end they still flew away. He finally understood what Sun Changling had felt like back then. He was really depressed. Seeing her good fortune right in front of him and the gap between them, he felt like he was on the verge of getting his hands on it. Those two fellows were clearly weaker than him in terms of combat strength and cultivation. They were in a completely disadvantaged position. In the end, they had still used the Great Universal Teleportation, and it was unknown where they had run off to. The Protector Lv was so furious that he had nowhere to vent his anger on, he could only forcefully suppress it and resplendently turn around to meet with the other protector. Of course, he did his best to conceal his own defeat. The angry roar that came from behind and above his head could no longer reach Chen Fan''s ears, it meant that he had successfully avoided a calamity. Speaking of which, the combination of these two people was extremely strange. One of them had half a step into Core Condensating, and normally, even when sparring with Senior Expert, they wouldn''t let the other party display their full strength. As for Chen Fan, he was terrifyingly weak. In the eyes of Protector Lv and Sun Chang Ling, only he knew that he had the power of Foundation Establishment, and that he was only at the peak of Qi Refining. I never thought that a dignified Supreme Wu Tian like myself would have such a day ¡­ Chen Fan let out a long sigh in his heart, powerless yet helpless. Originally, according to his previous temperament, if he was treated like this, he would definitely put his opponent on the killing list. He was even angrier than if even a grandfather had appeared out of nowhere for Hu Mu. But now, he could only sigh emotionally, and not the slightest bit of killing intent rose. Perhaps it was because he had obtained so many benefits from Yuan Sect ¡ª If he wanted to stifle his anger, he didn''t have the ability. C109 After staying up there for a long time, he would come down to the ground from time to time to take a breath of fresh air. On the contrary, he was even more indignant and grieved. Ever since he was awakened by this brat, he had not lived a few days in peace. Originally, they had endured for thousands of years, and were still calm and steady without any ripples. Even though their Qing Xuan Sect had been declining from start to finish, it had not reached the point where even the Great Hall of the Ancestral Masters had been demolished. I was still thinking about finding a time to prepare for the Foundation Establishment stage, but it''s all in vain now. In these three days, he had been on the run. Even if he had to rest, it would only take half an hour. How could he have the time to prepare to stabilize his cultivation? The two of them followed the traces on the ground and fled for about a few hundred kilometers. After estimating that they had temporarily left the range of Yuan Sect to chase and kill, they finally escaped. Bang! An explosion sound suddenly came from the tranquil ground, causing the dirt to fly everywhere. Two figures of Human Clan cultivators appeared, both of them looking depressed with their heads covered in dirt. Whoosh! Chen Fan was the first to let out a long breath of relief and patted off the dust on his body. Seeing the familiar azure sky and vast plains once again, Chen Fan''s heart was filled with emotion. Let''s go, there should be a big city nearby, we should go rest first, Yuan Sect shouldn''t catch up so quickly. Actually, the feeling in her heart was not any better than Chen Fan''s. Most of''s memories were stuck several thousand years ago, but three days ago, she was still a high and mighty Holy Maiden. She had been chased all over the world for no reason and had even dug into the ground like a mouse today. How could she have ever imagined that she would encounter such a situation today? Thank you this time, or we''d both be cold. Chen Fan opened his mouth to express his thanks. Towards this kind of earth escape technique, even he was moved. It''s nothing, just ask for a million Spiritual Stone next time. Nangong Xuan laughed, and continued to walk forward to look for the path, it seemed like she had her own plans too, to be able to save her life, and then set a price of a million Spiritual Stone, it was indeed not a loss. Chen Fan:... When the two arrived at the town, they found a random inn to stay at first. The power of Yuan Sect would soon extend to their side, and a short period of peace would definitely not last for too long. To them, with such a huge scandal to the Sect, they had to suppress them immediately and capture Chen Fan and Yue Yang back to the sect, or kill them immediately. Only then, would the chaos be pacified. If the number one sect at that time had actually been played around by someone that played everyone in the sect, even Grandfather Qian had been called out as well, they would certainly become the laughingstock of the entire North Domain. How the hell do you do it? If we can''t even bring back this old fogey, then what does our sect want you for?! In the Yuan Sect Great Hall, only the Sect Leader and the Great Clan Elder were discussing this time. Since the Protector Sun and the others were doing something unfavorable, there was no need to inform the entire sect. The one standing below was not the Protector Sun himself, he would obviously not personally withdraw, and knew that the fault was heavy, so he simply found a pitiful bug to take on the anger of the Sect Leader. Reporting to Sect Leader, the woman beside Gu Feng was really strange. Protector Sun had already fought with them before, but they had mysteriously escaped underground ¡­ I don''t want to hear your explanation. I only want Gu Feng''s head here, or bring him back to me to be judged by the elders. I don''t want a third possibility to appear. There were no good news for the past few days, which also made the Sect Leader extremely angry. If this continued, it would really become uncontrollable, and he would have to account to many disciples. Fury surged through the entire hall, the young disciple felt his chest churning, his face pale, almost falling to the ground. How could he endure the Qi undulations of a Sect Leader Ranker? Fortunately, the Great Elder, who was sitting on the side, made his move in time. He waved his sleeve and signaled for the man to leave first. Sect Leader, should we go and pacify the Third Elder? Seeing how heavy the former was, the Great Clan Elder and the others were not at ease, as they were worried that leaving the Sect alone would cause some trouble. Ben had given him a one-week deadline, and if he still hadn''t brought Gu Feng back by then, he would have to take action himself. Sect Leader sighed and said, he could not stop the Third Elder, but he did not have any gains. After all, he had already swept the treasury clean, it would be good if he could endure for a week. If this goes on, then it will cause chaos throughout the city, and everyone will know the ugly thing about my Yuan Sect, Sigh! The grand elder looked sympathetic. Although he was not satisfied with the third elder''s decision, he could do nothing but understand. The majority of their accumulated experiences in their lives had been completely taken care of by someone, and they wouldn''t be able to calm down in just a few days. Moreover, they had yet to find Chen Fan, so it was very possible that they would be misunderstood by the Third Elder. If his own little treasury had been robbed clean, he wouldn''t necessarily be able to compare to the latter. He would surely be unable to sit still any longer, and would have to personally make up for it in order to be at ease. He immediately sent out the other two protectors to stand guard, with at least a hundred or so inner sect disciples following them. They went through dozens of routes to search for Chen Fan, as there were still people who were alive and well, who would not just disappear like that. Very quickly, orders were issued one after another from the highest levels of the Yuan Sect. They even sent out military orders to all the protectors who were tailing Chen Fan, wanting to use their positions as punishment. Although they would not go all out for this matter, they would still be able to represent the importance that the Sect Leader and the others had placed on the Third Elder. Once they released the Third Elder and let him give chase, the last of the Yuan Sect would be torn apart by them. In the unknown, mysterious town, Chen Fan and Nangong Xuan were still discussing their next move. They had just narrowly escaped death at the hands of the Protector Sun, and was inevitably a little pessimistic about their future. How has Yu Chan been recently? Chen Fan asked. Fortunately, he had arranged for the little girl in advance, otherwise, she would definitely become a burden, and maybe even implicate her because of him. Better than both of us. Nangong Xuan rolled her eyes. The Spiritual Stone beside him were piling up like a small mountain, continuously absorbing the Spiritual Energy. She was doing her best to recover her cultivation. Your Earth Escape Technique is not bad. Do you have any other similar techniques? I can learn it too, so it won''t drag you down... Only after pondering for a long time did Chen Fan speak. Who knew how much courage he had put in, to the point where he wanted to slap himself in the face. [What kind of thing is this? In the past, I would never have believed that he would say such things out of my own mouth. I have to rely on a woman of the first rank ¡­] I still have to wait for your order. I will only use it when I really have to. Nangong Xuan responded. As a Holy Maiden, how could she spend all her time thinking about how to escape? It was already considered unexpected that it could train its earth escape technique to the Mastery Stage. In addition, the Earth Escape Technique is not as simple as you think it is. Grandfather called it the Floating Essence Magnetic Technique. Pagoda''s Primary Magnetic Technique? Chen Fan recited it twice in his mouth. Presumably, this was the original name of the Earth Escape Technique, it sounded a lot more lofty. Mn, being able to move through the layers of earth is only one of the functions of the Pagoda''s Magnetic Arts. Nangong Xuan paused for a moment, and then reorganized her words. She had not found out about the various wonders of the Pagoda''s primordial magnetic art ever since she obtained it. It also meant that he could use this technique to absorb the power of the earth. If the body allowed it, he could even penetrate deep into the earth and receive the purest energy attack! Then I need to learn more. I feel like I must have been reincarnated as a rat in my previous life. My instincts has not left me when I reincarnated into this life. Chen Fan said in a righteous tone, acting like he was joking. After hearing what Nangong Xuan had to say, he was indeed more moved than usual by the Floating Primordial Magnetic Technique, to the point where she was somewhat looking forward to it. Right now, what he lacked the most was the orthodox technique, which would allow him to increase his cultivation level as well as his overall strength. He would then be able to undergo a deep level of refinement, and of course, he had already prepared many memories for use. It was just that no matter how much he thought about it, he only had the Third Elder''s family assets. This was also the reason why he had to hide his Spiritual Being. From the bottom of his heart, Chen Fan hoped to obtain a more basic Innate Energy at the Foundation Establishment stage. This way, his body''s baptism would be even more thorough and pure. This was enough for Chen Fan to lower his face and plead for mercy. This kind of cultivation method should be considered one of the top even in Hua Ding Sect. Ok, three million Spiritual Stone, I will give you the complete set of the Pagoda Yuan Magnet Arts. This brat was too unkind. How could he bargain with a doctor? 2.5 million? Chen Fan''s expression immediately changed, and he muttered in a low voice, his voice sounding somewhat bitter. It seems that this Nangong Xuan was not easy to fool either. Since she was able to become a Holy Maiden, she must have been taught by Nangong Yi for a long time. Counting the time I saved you before, three million Spiritual Stone, that''s all. After revealing a sly smile, Nangong Xuan replied seriously. It was her who was in the right this time, it was Chen Fan''s turn to repay the gratitude. Fine, fine, fine. I''ll listen to you. Chen Fan thought that this was probably the most depressing moment he had ever encountered. Nangong Xuan:... Without any explanation, he directly passed another section of Spiritual Consciousness towards Chen Fan. This time, it was obviously much more complicated, it no longer only included the small group that was Earth Escape. Abruptly receiving such a large amount of information, even the Spiritual Consciousness of the latter could not take it any longer. It felt extremely dizzy, and there were even some buzzing sounds in its ears. C110 With your talent, it should be enough for you to enter the sect in half a day. I''ll go outside and help you take care of your cultivation. Nangong Xuan stood up and left. Although she had lost a few million Spiritual Stone, she was still joking around. To her, Chen Fan''s kindness was greater than Mt. If the latter didn''t help to treat her strange illness, she would still have to endure that ugly face that she couldn''t bear to look at. She didn''t dare to take a step forward with her Sect and even that small house had become her largest activity area. Kid, you''re great. For you to be able to obtain such a good cultivation technique just by washing your face, you sure have improved. Deer God chuckled, and at the same time, he checked the Pagoda Yuan Magnet Arts. That''s three million Spiritual Stone, she''s a lot more scheming than you! Chen Fan clenched his teeth. Although he had yet to check how rich he really was, but due to his recent predicament, three million was almost enough to take half of his life. [What the hell are you saying, why am I being mean? Deer God curled his lips. Although he would trick Chen Fan from time to time, he had never made such a big move before. Furthermore, a technique like the Pagoda Yuan Magnet Arts, to be able to be used by that old fellow Nangong Yi as a trump card and handed to his precious granddaughter, must definitely be ranked as a treasure in the sect in terms of Hua Ding Sect. Putting aside all external factors, if this kind of cultivation technique were to be spread out, it would cause many forces in the outside world to fight and fight for it. Not to mention whether they could sell it at the price of a Spiritual Stone, they would at least sell it at around ten million dollars. Sigh, if only I were a Pixiu. Chen Fan said leisurely. That kind of Divine Beast would not reject anything and would only be able to enter. He was extremely concerned about his current situation. As long as there was no profit from the Spiritual Being today, he would feel like he had made a loss. He even had the intention of avoiding this wave of Yuan Sect and continued to try again with the other transcendent powers. Tsk, do you really think she would be so conflicted over a few Spiritual Stone? The little girl had intentions, who told an ignorant fool like you not to know what was going on. When the spectators were watching from the sidelines, they could tell that Deer God had revealed all of his motives with a single sentence. He forcefully made Chen Fan choke to the point where he couldn''t even say a single word. This was the truth, but he had never felt anything about this. He wasn''t as knowledgeable as this old fellow who stayed in the Furnace Body all day, after all, he had inherited the tradition of the wooden figure for close to ten thousand years. Cultivating was the way of the king. First of all, he had to raise his strength, so naturally, everything was fine. Shaking his head, Chen Fan focused all of his attention onto the Floating Pagoda''s magnetic formula. He didn''t even have time to run for his life, how could he have the energy to think about other things? In your previous life, could it be that you were also like this, chased by a few Holy Maiden s until there was nothing you could do, and chose to sink into slumber for ten thousand years? Deer God suddenly thought about it. Combined with Chen Fan''s current signs, he felt that the probability of this happening was extremely high. Chen Fan:... Human Clan''s body was the most mysterious form of Creation, every meridian and acupoint had their own meaning, at the same time, they were also known as the Five Elements and the power of yin and yang. This was also why those foreign experts would usually change into their Human Clan after they reached a certain realm of cultivation. Only by doing so would they be able to comprehend the purest of the laws of heaven and earth, which would be of great help to their cultivation. Almost all the cultivation techniques in the world were used to raise one''s aptitude as much as possible, or to dig out the Spiritual Energy s and the Spiritual Consciousness s that were attached to the body as much as possible. It was nothing more than stimulating potential and digging up talent. It was just a matter of increasing one''s fighting strength. There were both high and low levels of cultivation. That was why there were different levels of cultivation techniques. However, this Pagoda''s magnetic art was different. By using another method, one could transform their body into nothingness and gain the qualifications to refine their origin energy. This sounded like a very long process. The first requirement was to be able to run freely in the earth escape, and to be able to transform one''s body into a fog state within minutes. After that, he would have to face the impact of the earth''s energy, and at that time, he would have to return to his original body state, doing his best to accept a baptism. It was also because Nan Gong Quan and Chen Fan had extremely high starting points and superior aptitude that the latter could reach the entry level when they first came into contact with the Buddha magnetic art. In such a short period of time, the two of them reached an agreement and ran out from right under Protector Sun''s nose, making the latter so angry that his lungs were about to explode. If it were any other ordinary cultivator, they would either be unable to turn their body into smoke or kill themselves by smashing their head on the ground. The most tragic possibility was that they would be crushed into meat paste and not leave with their corpse intact. When Chen Fan completely immersed his consciousness within the world of the Buddha Yuan Magnet Arts, he saw that the place in front of him was still that familiar darkness. Streams of soil quickly swept past, signifying that he was probably in the process of descending. An extremely profound aura spread out from his body, and enveloped the entire room. Talisman after Talisman danced around his body, and then, they did not enter his Zifu Space. Such a fast speed was enough to dazzle anyone. The dizziness in their head became even more obvious as they stared for too long. They did not even want to open their eyes. However, Chen Fan clearly knew that all the Talisman were hidden in the soil and had to learn to pull them out, one by one, to comprehend the principles behind it. Even though there was no change to the actual movement speed of his body, his naked eyes had slowed down the movement of the soil by several times. In fact, it was even dozens of times larger. This was the only way to deal with any unforeseen circumstances that could happen underground. After all, it was not as open as the sun, and no one could say for sure what was there. Since he wanted to cultivate the Pagoda''s Primary Magnetic Arts to a profound level, he needed to learn how to endure the long term darkness and boredom. This was not difficult for Chen Fan at all, after all, he was still experiencing the profound mysteries of the Three Holy Arts a few days ago. No matter how high the grade or how mysterious the use of the Pagoda''s magnetic art was, it was impossible for it to be comparable to the Three Sacred Arts. One could only be able to discern it from the difficulty of comprehending it. As the Spiritual Consciousness became more and more familiar with each other, Chen Fan could feel the change in the pagoda''s magnetic formula. The trend of his descent also rapidly increased, to the point where he even turned into a flowing light in the end. At this time, he finally understood something. He did not just turn his body into a light smoke, he wanted to use the help of the Talisman and evolve into a light state. Only this way could they be considered truly brilliant. The smoke was only a simple entrance, and there was still the possibility of being forcefully captured by the other experts. If it had been the Third Elder who had been chasing them back then, then there would have been a second outcome. However, this thing was different. It was omnipotent and omnipresent. It could fill every inch of space and shrink to a certain point, making it impossible for one to fathom it. As long as he activated the Pagoda''s magnetic art, this entire world would become Chen Fan''s home ground, and any foreign objects would no longer be an obstruction him. Even if the elders and experts wanted to break through, they would need to expend a lot of effort. Compared to his speed on the ground, there was definitely a gap. However, time was short and the task was urgent. It was not bad that he was able to reach such a level. He left the room a little earlier than Nangong Xuan had predicted, but he left the room four hours later. "Whiz!" A ray of light flashed past her eyes, its speed was extremely fast, even Spiritual Consciousness could not detect it, so Nangong Xuan subconsciously thought that a Expert From Yuan Sect had caught up to him and was about to defend herself. At this time, Chen Fan finally revealed his true appearance. Seeing him enlarge his body from a little bit of Spiritual Light, Nangong Xuan was extremely surprised. It took a long time for him to confirm that the scene before him was real. You reached the Small Success Stage so quickly? When he thought about it, when he had made contact with the Pagoda Yuan Magnet Arts for the first time, it had taken him an entire day to turn into a stream of light. The reason why Nangong Xuan had said it out for half a day, was also to test Chen Fan''s aptitude. She didn''t expect to give her such a huge blow, directly crushing the record she was once most proud of. Even if this is considered a small success, it doesn''t feel like it''s a big deal, it''s okay. Chen Fan waved his hand, he really did not notice the level division of the Pagoda Yuan Magnet Arts. Perhaps it was because he had only comprehended the Three Sacred Arts not too long ago, as such, the Pagoda Yuan Magnetism was not considered particularly difficult in his eyes, and the surprise was greater than the miracle. The idea of hiding his body deep underground had opened up a new way of thinking for him. In the future, perhaps he could use this as a reference for his future cultivation. This was the most important reward. How long do you think you can activate the Pagoda''s Magnetic Noxious Technique? Nangong Xuan asked unwillingly. At most half an hour, his body would have been drained dry. If he was in a simple green smoke state, he might have been able to extend his body by another half an hour. Thinking about it, Chen Fan made a conservative judgement. Currently, he was restricted by his realm, so even though he had a lot of wealth, he could not turn it into a Spiritual Energy. Alright, looks like you are much stronger than me. If not for that last bit of consideration she had for the Holy Maiden''s face, Nangong Xuan would have directly cursed out loud. Just like that, her small face was covered in frost. She had painstakingly cultivated for such a long period of time, to the point that she had even reached the level of mastery in the Pagoda''s Primary Magnetic Technique. However, she was only able to continuously use it for more than two hours. One had to know that this was with his cultivation base of Core Condensating, the difference in realm between the two was definitely like the difference in heaven and earth, but Chen Fan was just looking at it, and it would be very soon filled in. Let''s go, the people from Yuan Sect are probably coming over soon, we have to leave quickly. Chen Fan did not care about Nangong Xuan''s anger. According to his experience of being hunted these past few days, the range of his Yuan Sect would probably increase by around two hundred kilometers every half a day. C111 He had been delayed for so long, he reckoned that Protector Sun and the rest were about to arrive, he did not want to experience such a defeated battle, even though he had just learnt a new technique. Feeling depressed, Nangong Xuan nodded her head and just as she was about to leave, there was a knock on the door. Dong! Dong! Dong! In order to avoid unnecessary disagreements with the former, as long as Chen Fan stayed at an inn, he would definitely demonstrate his rich side, the type that was extremely rare. He directly reserved a courtyard as his resting place. Today was no exception as well. He first retracted the ripples in his aura, he could not be exposed because of such a low level mistake. Was it you who called him? I heard that there was a kind of dried fruit here that tasted pretty good, so I asked the waiter to buy some for me. Having just been struck by Chen Fan, Nangong Xuan didn''t even have the mood to eat anymore. In the end, it was still a little girl''s house. On the way back, she could still think of eating a little delicacy, but there was always an irresistible temptation to this kind of thing. Chen Fan did not have this kind of feeling. With a squeak, the wooden door opened. The waiter from before walked over, holding Nangong Xuan''s dried fruit in her hands. Chen Fan curled his lips, he did not really care about this kind of thing in the first place, so he lazily stretched his waist, preparing to leave this place. Be careful, there is something wrong with this fellow! Just at this moment, a warning came from the Zifu Space of the Deer God. Chen Fan subconsciously used the power of the Three Sacred Grounds to wrap around his body. He had absolute trust in the old fellow''s sense of the Spiritual Consciousness. The Heaven''s Path Divine Art was not an exaggeration, his cultivation level had dropped a little, but his probing ability was still not inferior to an elder level expert. Boom! Sure enough, after Deer God''s reminder, in a short span of two breaths, the waiter was about to turn around, so Nangong Xuan was not prepared, and suddenly shot a ray of spiritual light from the former''s sleeves. This was an absolute kill, its speed was extremely fast, and could even be compared to the flowing light that Chen Fan had transformed into earlier, it must have been something that this guy had been preparing for a long time. Seeing that Nangong Xuan''s attention was focused on that piece of dried fruit, she immediately took action, aiming straight at her head. To force the release of a Spiritual Energy at such a short distance, even the air was slightly trembling. This person might not have a high cultivation level, but he was definitely a top-notch expert in the way of killing. Retreat! He is the pursuer of Yuan Sect! Chen Fan roared out and pushed Nangong Xuan right behind him. Without hesitation, he counterattacked with his palm imprint. Under the constant barrage of the Three Saint Force, the man''s attack was unsuccessful. Even his body had suffered from a heavy attack. He had to retreat several steps in order to stabilize himself. Who is he? Nangong Xuan was shocked quite badly, but she quickly realised that if Chen Fan had not saved her in time, even if she had the protection of the secret treasure, she would have been severely injured by the huge force. However, it was clear that this fellow had no intention of opening his mouth, and was coldly staring at Chen Fan. Needless to say, the only people who can see through us in this kind of place are people of Yuan Sect. Chen Fan laughed while clapping his hands, but there was a hint of coldness in his smile, but the short reaction time of one breath was extremely thrilling ¡­ You guys are really resourceful. It seems like the boss has already sent out more trackers to make that old fogey anxious. Originally, according to their previous deductions, Chen Fan and the other two still had an hour of time to escape, but now, they were being watched. It was clear that there were new movements on their Yuan Sect. Rip! The man did not say a word, but a Lex Sabre appeared in his hands, and he chopped down at Chen Fan. Pure Sword Intent s appeared in the air as endless Gengjin Qi surged rapidly, surrounding Chen Fan''s entire person in a murderous atmosphere. I don''t care who sent you, either go back to this old man or leave your little life here! With a rather forceful and low roar, Chen Fan turned his palm into a blade, and without any fear, he erupted with resplendent golden light, forcibly using his palm to block the attacks of the Sword Intent. With the toughness of his body, ordinary cultivators would not be able to move him at all. Even with the help of the Lex Sabre, if he did not actually touch the sword body, he would be the same. A trace of surprise flashed through that person''s eyes. He had obviously not expected this to happen. He quickly changed his plan, and the tip of his sword quickly rotated, creating a whirlpool. Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! It was still formed from a sea of Sword Intent, and the sound of the wind was even heard. All the furnishings in this courtyard were all shattered, and they were once again carried into the whirlpool. Naturally, Chen Fan would not sit still and wait for death. With the help of the Pagoda''s Primary Magnetic Arts, he still moved his feet, and even he did not expect that he could move at such a strange angle, and directly move to the back of the big guy. While Nangong Xuan was in the middle of attracting the Whirlpool Sword Intent, he saw the Death Acupuncture Point on the young man''s spine and smacked it down, causing a cracking sound to ring out. The vortex in front of him had already formed, and expanded to be around seventy to eighty meters wide. As it swirled around Nangong Xuan''s body, more than a dozen spatial cracks had appeared along the way. With such a great momentum, he naturally needed the majestic Spiritual Energy''s support. Even if this person sensed Chen Fan''s movements, he would still be powerless to stop him. He could only allow the finger force to penetrate deep into his body, instantly destroying the acupuncture points, as well as breaking a large portion of his meridians, causing the circulation of the Spiritual Energy to stop abruptly. This was a fatal blow to any cultivator. Originally, they had high intentions for battle, but now they were forcefully suppressing it all of a sudden. This would definitely cause great damage to their physical body. The man collapsed to the ground like a pile of rotten meat. Even his backbone, which was used to support his body, had been shattered. Even if he could survive, he would still be a cripple. Immediately afterwards, the whirlpool was unstoppable, and in order to attract the former''s attention, Nangong Xuan went too deep into the center of the Sword Intent, both of her feet almost pulling him off the ground. Once one was truly caught up in it, they would definitely suffer a heavy injury. At this time, even if they used the Floating Essence Magnetic Technique, it would be too late. Deer God, go save her! In that crucial moment, Chen Fan summoned the Dao Burning Furnace once again. Its entire body released a resplendent golden light, and each of its lines seemed to appear in the air, transforming into the shape of a huge net. This wave of Sword Intent storm was indeed turbulent, but it could only be suppressed in front of the Dao Burning Furnace. After isolating Nangong Xuan from the Sword Intent, he would be responsible for keeping watch outside in case other Expert From Yuan Sect were to spy on him. The fact that they had already sent out such a killer meant that the Yuan Sect had definitely spread to this town, and the danger level of this place instantly increased. C112 Moreover, after that short battle, all the courtyards were razed to the ground within a circumference of one hundred feet. There were even many deep pits of varying sizes that naturally attracted the attention of other experts in the city. Let''s go! After ensuring Nangong Xuan''s safety, Chen Fan immediately pulled him into the depths of the earth. Right now, there was no telling how many Yuan Sect spies were present in the city. As long as they left this inn, they would probably be surrounded and attacked. In the blink of an eye, the two of them had travelled another hundred kilometers. This time, they did not go according to the extreme condition of the Pagoda''s Primary Magnetism Technique. Instead, they stopped to think for a moment and the situation changed again. Bang! Bang!! With an explosion, two figures appeared one after another. However, before the dust could disperse, Chen Fan saw the scene on the side. After looking around, an old face suddenly appeared in front of him. It was the Protector Sun and more than ten Yuan Sect disciples by his side. Nangong Xuan was also extremely startled, and subconsciously wanted to continue with his Earth Escape Technique, but it did not succeed. For some reason, the layer of dirt beneath his feet had become extremely hard, and every stone was tightly sewn together. Even after transforming into green smoke, it was still impossible to drill through. You still want to run? With your little tricks, how could you escape this old man''s Fiery Eyes of Truth? Protector Sun would naturally not fall for the same trick after suffering from the previous incident and strengthened all the nearby areas with Spell Formation. Unless one had sufficient brute force, it would be impossible to escape, much less use the Pagoda Art. As expected, the older the better, he actually made preparations for it the second time. Nangong Xuan''s face turned ugly, the truth surpassing both her and Chen Fan''s expectations. Since this old fellow was able to choose to wait here, it was likely that he had decided on where they would leave from. This way, they wouldn''t be able to escape in the future. Come on, why are you still spouting nonsense? As the Guardian of Yuan Sect, this old man will give you some pointers today. Chen Fan didn''t have that much of a worry, he didn''t have much of a choice to continue escaping. It was unknown whether he could even escape today. Bastard, shut up! When that matter was brought up, the Protector Sun became extremely furious and was treated as a humiliation by the entire Yuan Sect. More than ten disciples followed along as they activated their Seal and attracted all the spirit energy around them. Standing in the middle of the circle of battle, Chen Fan and Nangong Xuan were both under great pressure. Those disciples combined their auras and even used the ground''s continuous force to restrain the two of them. How could an astute and scheming Protector Sun only have these surface experiences? In fact, he had even prepared a Spell Formation to assist him from the side, and it was not as simple as just displaying it. Wait. You want to capture me that much, but as a grand Protector, for you to attack a member of the younger generation, I''m afraid that you''re not suitable, right? After realising that he was in a bad situation, Chen Fan gained the greatest benefit from his ten thousand years of cultivation. Without panicking in the slightest, without panicking at all, he asked slowly. His attitude caused the Protector Sun to be slightly moved. What kind of junior are you? Don''t spout nonsense, today is destined to be your funeral! You are wrong, I am indeed proficient in the way of medicine, but when it comes to cultivation, I am actually about the same as you inner court disciples. Chen Fan was earnestly saying that he was shameless, and had even confidently said that he was worshipping himself. He lowered his seniority so quickly, which surprised Protector Sun and all the other disciples. On the path of cultivation, those who reach the position of teacher, your cultivation realms are higher than mine, so I am a junior in reality. This is nothing strange. Protector Sun ¡­ Deer God, is there any way to break this kind of Spell Formation? In Zifu Space, Chen Fan was afraid to quickly ask others about it, so he still had to rely on his old friend. In a moment, you will follow my instructions and stamp your feet twice. Originally, he thought that it would be difficult, but Deer God disapproved and replied, allowing Chen Fan to feel at ease. It wasn''t that he didn''t know anything about formations. When he faced his opponents before, he had experienced many battles and focused on formation attacks. But he could do nothing about the methods that Chen Fan knew of, which could only be used by experts with Nascent Infant of one level and above. He still had a long way to go, so he could only use Deer God''s suggestion. Even if there were thousands upon thousands of mountains, one would only be able to see them after thousands of miles. However, they were about to die of thirst. What was the use of a dream? Alright, seeing that you can''t even compare to an inner disciple, this protector will personally make you admit defeat. After pondering for a moment, Protector Sun agreed to Chen Fan''s request. Protector Sun, didn''t you say that this old fellow is cunning and cannot be trusted easily? Some disciples tried to persuade her in a low voice, but when they recalled the former''s warning, they couldn''t help but wonder how she had even fallen into the pit. No matter, we have the absolute advantage. Even if this kid has the means to reach the heavens, he can''t possibly escape from me. In reality, the Protector Sun still had its own little scheme, we must not let these disciples know. They were all direct descendants of the Sect Leader and the Great Clan Elder. Although they belonged to the Sect Leader as well, they would definitely take a large portion of the credit after capturing Chen Fan. When the time came for him to spread the news within the Sect, it would definitely be because of those two. Who would care about a mere little Protector like him? But if he were to personally throw Chen Fan back to the Yuan Sect and ruthlessly vent his anger on all those disciples in front of them, his prestige would definitely rise greatly. You can delay those disciples, right? Chen Fan continued to ask Nangong Xuan. Actually, he was more confident in the latter than he was in himself. It shouldn''t be a problem, it''s just that ¡­ What Nangong Xuan was more worried about was still Chen Fan. The two of them had an extremely deep understanding of each other, after going through so many battles, it was even more effective than living under the same roof. After half an hour, prepare for the Pagoda Art. I will send you a signal when the time comes. Our journey is not over yet. With that said, Chen Fan immediately rushed out, his hands releasing millions of Seal s, directly facing Protector Sun. Humph, come on. In the eyes of the latter, this was a living, human-shaped good fortune. As long as he could control it, he would have a chance to advance in the future. With a wave of his sleeve, the fist imprints on Chen Fan''s body were automatically wiped away. Replacing them was a bright light, which completely submerged the imprint within. A genuine Golden Core Stage expert like him was indeed not someone he could handle right now. Relying solely on his battle consciousness and experience to persevere, even if it were anyone else, they would not be able to act so recklessly. Using his life as the price, this was a foregone conclusion. After all, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great. After lightly patting the Storage Bag, Chen Fan was not to be outdone. He took out the ancient bronze mirror and in the blink of an eye, gathered the majestic Spiritual Energy and broke that beam of light. That was not the end. Many mysterious Talisman flew out from the ancient mirror and quickly surrounded the Protector Sun. They had actually bound him in the reverse direction. Previously, when Chen Fan was being stingy and stingy, he had never had the thought of doing it himself. Now that he was forced to do it, he was indeed forced into a corner. Do you think this kind of insignificant skill can cause this protector to feel fear? His mouth sneered, and Protector Sun forced out an even thicker aura. Ka-cha! * Accompanying the air splitting apart, those Talisman did not even last for a long time. Protector Sun calmly summoned the endless turbulence, and surrounded Chen Fan. Although his physical body could somewhat hold on for a while, this was only the beginning of a confrontation, so taking such a huge risk was really not worth it. He tried his best to activate the ancient mirror, releasing a blazing light beam. However, it was all swallowed by the Protector Sun, and his pair of big hands covered the sky. In the end, they even forcefully aimed at the body of the ancient mirror, the unimaginable turbulence and the Spiritual Energy pressed on it at the same time, and in a flash, it broke into several pieces. Even the last of the Ancient Mirror Fragments had flown far away under Chen Fan''s control, helping him through the air. The battle on her side was naturally extremely intense, as she continuously stirred all kinds of Seal s. At the same time, when facing the encirclement of over ten disciples, even the difference of half a step in Core Condensating realm would be pulled back. The Spiritual Energy were all confused, as they couldn''t tell which side was the work of Nangong Xuan. Delay was also the main point. He didn''t want to make the latter become too anxious. This was a chase, and there was no need to take the risk of life and death. "Whiz!" Just as one of the disciples was about to sneak attack from behind, a few bronze fragments suddenly fell from the sky and smashed into his spine. He did not learn to be the killer in the inn. After staggering for a few steps, he managed to stabilize his body and lost the strength to continue fighting for the time being. Even if you kneel down and beg me right now, this Protector will not be soft-hearted. Last time, a large part of the reason why he allowed Chen Fan and the others to escape was because he had an ulterior motive. He only wanted to make the latter hand over the Spiritual Being so that he could easily earn some extra money, but in the end, he was played a fool. This time, he used all of his strength without holding anything back, and naturally showed his overwhelming strength, vowing to take back all the face he had lost. Fighting with me, you are still too inexperienced. Chen Fan was furious in his heart. He was not lightly angered by Protector Sun and actually used him as a comparison between the two. In his entire life, he had never bowed to anyone so courteously when he was kneeling to the heavens, to the earth, to his parents. Even when the Ancient Saint s were joking, they would avoid him completely. With a flip of his hand, a few pieces of pale yellow paper appeared. They floated in the air, and with the naked eye, one could see several lines of inscriptions on them. It could not be said to be vigorous and forceful, but it could at least be said to have some foundation. One could feel an invisible pressure spreading from far away. It had to be known that this kind of talisman was the hardest to refine. Only Jindan Stage powerhouses or higher could make a move, and they had to place the ferocious Spiritual Energy into such a soft piece of paper. C113 This was different from hard magical equipment. As long as the material was strong enough, it could be used however he liked. It was a simple piece of straw paper that even mortals could easily tear apart. To transfer one''s cultivation into it, one would indeed need a very profound realm. What is this? Protector Sun frowned, he felt like he had seen it somewhere before, but suddenly he couldn''t remember where. Bang! When Chen Fan poured in the Spiritual Energy, the pressure instantly expanded and several talismans lit up. It was obvious that they were not big in size, as if a volcano had erupted. A terrifyingly high temperature covered the sky and earth, and it was only present in this space alone, targeting Protector Sun from ten meters away. Just like what he had said before, this was a treasure that he had obtained using his own abilities. Of course, no matter how much he spent, he would not care ¡ª ¡ª Chen Fan could only use these words to comfort himself. Damn it, this is my Yuan Sect''s spirit rune! It was only until the flame was about to reach his eyebrows that Protector Sun could finally make out that the tattoo on it was the work of the Third Elder. This was why he was so angry, when he realized that Chen Fan had actually used a treasure of the Yuan Sect to attack him, he felt even more embarrassed. Fortunately, the Third Elder did not follow him. Otherwise, he would have been angered to death if he had seen this scene. Waves of flames surged, and the heat wave that assaulted their faces was almost sufficient to cook them. Protector Sun was sealed in a narrow space, and struggled continuously. However, those few spirit runes were originally prepared by the Third Elder for Hu Mu. As one of his life saving trump cards, they were naturally better than ordinary treasures, and reached the level of forbidden weapons. Each wisp of dao flame seemed to burn through the void. This was the true wrath of the heavens, representing heavenly retribution that could destroy all living things in the world. It was something that ordinary people simply could not contend against. In a short ten breaths of time, the Protector Sun had already been enveloped by the Dao Fire, and he was reciting a chant to himself, forming a protective barrier around his body. Senior Brother Wang, there seems to be a problem with the Protector Sun, should we go over to take a look? On the other side of the battle circle, someone caught a glimpse of that human-shaped volcano and couldn''t help feeling a bit worried. I already said that Gu Feng isn''t someone to be trifled with, it''s not like Protector Sun would listen, quickly go save him. Hearing that, Nangong Xuan''s attack became even more powerful, the shadows of the whip twitched, and fell into the air with a crackling sound. At the same time, it had a corrosive effect on the Spiritual Consciousness. The disciples felt a stabbing pain in their heads and immediately stopped thinking about helping the Protector Sun. Who knew why this little girl would suddenly explode. Since she couldn''t affect Chen Fan''s plans and even more so didn''t want to be disadvantaged in front of him, Nangong Xuan continued to display the side of her female tyrannosaurus. Several disciples were surrounded at the same time. The shadows of the whips were as thick as pythons. They bared their fangs and brandished their claws, as if they wanted to crush their waists. Fortunately, he was still able to rely on his movement technique to move back and forth. He was always within the range of the whip shadows. From time to time, he would take a hit and enter a stalemate. Sixteen steps to the left, nine steps forward, and the four steps behind you. Protector Sun was temporarily sealed, he anxiously asked. Following his guidance, Chen Fan faked a fist imprint, his body quickly moved, and stepped on the ground, creating many cracks. In reality, there were also endless Spiritual Energy Whirlpool trying to kill that old fellow, but it was really hard to deal with the experts of the Golden Core Stage. The shield that appeared outside of his body was even more abnormal, isolating all of the flames outside. It might not even be able to transmit the temperature inside, and if Chen Fan''s Spiritual Consciousness were to relax even a little, the spirit runes would definitely be counterattacked. He had to be extremely careful, and make the direction of the crevices change as much as possible, otherwise, the Protector Sun would notice it. Doing this until the Spell Formation was mostly destroyed, what if the old fellow found out? Chen Fan realized that there was a very important problem. No matter how well he disguised himself, he was still destroying the formation thoroughly. You don''t have to worry about this, I have my ways. As long as you follow my orders and do it, he''s not a master of arrays, I''m sure you won''t be able to see through him. Deer God did not comment. He only needed to move a few Formation Pattern and he will succeed, right? The energy of the talisman was being rapidly consumed, and the dao flame was fading away at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye. Just as Chen Fan was about to land his final kick, Protector Sun immediately stood up. That old fellow was too stingy. He must have prepared this for his grandson, so why is he taking so much time? Chen Fan scolded, he was obviously referring to the Third Elder, who would not use these spirit runes. This bit of effort might not be long, but it was definitely enough to use it to run. However, Chen Fan was unable to get out of it just now, and there were many Yuan Sect disciples at the side, who could do nothing about it. Ah! The furious Protector Sun reached out his palm, and similarly, every line of palm print was shining, imprinting themselves in the air. He wanted to use the energy of heaven and earth to suppress Chen Fan, so he didn''t want to repeat the cat and mouse tactic. Intense energy fluctuations rippled out from within his body, concealing all of the runes. Not even a single bit remained, and even he would not be able to find it within a short period of time. The main support of the huge net was the palm imprint on the palm. It had disappeared now, so naturally Chen Fan''s attack would not hit anymore. The sun in the sky was covered up, and the bright light became dimmer and dimmer. Its power was extremely great. If an ordinary person were to face this kind of pressure from the heaven and earth, they would not even be able to stand steadily. You think you can control me like this? Chen Fan chuckled twice. He didn''t mind angering this old fellow again, he had been holding back and not using the Heavenly Heart Formula for such a long time. Then you underestimate the Third Elder''s wealth. Have you heard of the thunder bricks? We have plenty here. Hearing this, Protector Sun didn''t have time to get angry. He quickly searched his mind, if nothing unexpected happened, this thing would definitely be another Yuan Sect treasure. But Chen Fan did not have the intention to wait. He patted the Storage Bag and rushed to take out a few pieces of the thunder bricks before the big net fell down. Indeed, just like the name suggested, it was square-shaped and had a stunned look on its face. It was only half a foot in size and its entire body was covered with dense Dao patterns. Just seeing these things was enough to make one''s scalp tingle unconsciously, not to mention someone as knowledgeable as the Protector Sun. The things engraved on it were closely related to the power of lightning. Sigh, why is Hu Mu so trashy? He still has to rely on his grandfather Meng Yin when he''s just a little over 20, what a disgrace. Not daring to truly complain to the Third Elder, the Protector Sun could only blame it on Hu Mu. In any case, his name as a popinjay was known throughout the entire Yuan Sect. Every elder would prepare these trump cards for the younger generation that they thought highly of. It could only be said that Hu Mu was too unlucky, and it just so happened that they, grandfather and grandson, were selected. C114 Back then, those who were more rational and less domineering in terms of Pingquan Peak were able to save themselves a lot of trouble. Bang! Bang! Bang! As expected, several pieces of lightning bricks exploded in an instant. Violent lightning energy surged everywhere, and purple light replaced the darkness as it became the dominant color in this region. The aura of the lightning was extremely dense, even normal breathing was able to drill into the lungs, and even burrow into the body through the pores, which meant that Protector Sun could still rely on his cultivation to persevere. The Dao Burning Furnace hung above their heads, drooping down one pillar after another. It was not an astonishing energy wave, but it was able to block out all the purple lights. The Furnace Body remained as still as a mountain despite the repeated assaults, while Chen Fan below remained completely unscathed. The purple lights formed a large area, appearing exceptionally gorgeous, but in reality, they contained a terrifying destructive power. The void was torn apart like a piece of cotton. This was the true sea of lightning, a sea of lightning that surged wave after wave. At the same time, it emitted an endless amount of destructive power and rushed towards the Protector Sun. As for the huge net that he had set up, it had long since been completely eroded, and the remaining energy from the palm print had once again gathered around his body. Of course, he didn''t want to be outdone, so he took out his magic treasure. An earthen yellow shield was placed in front of him, blocking the sea of lightning and completely protecting him. Previously, he was still concerned about Spiritual Energy s, but now he had no choice but to submit to the Lightning Brick''s power. In his eyes, this was still a little shameful, as the chase was about to end in a prolonged battle. Just when he thought that the curtain for the thunderstorm was about to close, Chen Fan leisurely took out three more Lightning Bricks, and directly raised them into the air. His movements were cool, but Chen Fan''s heart was bleeding. Just this casual toss of his meant that tens of thousands of Spiritual Stone had been lost just like that. Each piece of thunder brick required half an hour of hard work from powerhouses of the Elder rank. Out of love and concern for the Grandson, the Third Elder would naturally not care about this bit of time. However, materials that could be used to bear lightning patterns were extremely rare in the entire Cultivation Realm. Making them, and putting them back into the Auction, would at least cost ten thousand Spiritual Stone. The electric sea was replenished, and the frequency of the lightning continued to increase as it charged towards the khaki-colored shield. Its body was also on the verge of collapse. Looking at the Protector Sun behind him, he was in a miserable state. After being bombarded by the Heavenly Thunder and the impact of the flames earlier, his entire aura became sluggish. His robe was torn, and his exposed skin was charred black. His old face, which was the color of a pig''s liver, looked as if he had run out of a coal mine. In order to conserve his strength as much as possible, he did not use the great shield to its full extent. Instead, he inserted a bit of thunder and lightning energy into his body to resist it. Relying on this revered appearance, he directly squatted by the side of the road. There was bound to be people who would donate Spiritual Stone s soon enough. Nineteen steps to the west, then three to the right ¡­ The Deer God was still pointing at Chen Fan''s movements. The Spell Formation that was used to seal the surrounding space had almost been completely broken through. Boom! Chen Fan probed as he punched the ground. He carefully controlled his strength and sure enough, his punch was much softer than before. If he could directly pierce through the Spiritual Energy and its body into the ground, then naturally, he could do the same for the Pagoda as well. How many treasures did this old thing have? Protector Sun was about to lose all hope. As a Yuan Sect cultivator, he was very clear on the amount of wealth possessed by the clan elders and experts. It wasn''t an exaggeration to say that there were tens of millions of them. If all of them were to be added together, even breaking through 100 million wouldn''t be difficult. With just these few taboo things that were sealed away for a long time and which were normally unusable, were all impossible to measure with Spiritual Stone s. However, his days of suffering had quickly come to an end. Chen Fan had already secretly informed Nangong Xuan, and gradually pulled himself out of the circle of battle, trying to get closer to him. How was my guidance today? Not bad, right? Chen Fan could feel a steady flow of energy coming from the former''s body. Furthermore, after letting him know that even his own anger was treated as a Spiritual Energy to activate the lightning bricks, it was possible that Protector Sun would take a stroll in the Underworld before him. Ah!" I will definitely not let you off today. Gu Feng, you bastard! He did not know if it was because of the provocation, or because Chen Fan was not allowed to listen to him kneel, but the words just now had poked the reverse scale of the Protector Sun, and suddenly exploded. Wielding that huge shield, he walked towards Chen Fan while facing the sea of lightning. After such a long period of exhaustion and dissipation, he had lost all of his initial strength. He even treated it as an offensive treasure, releasing a burst of Gengjin Qi, aimed straight at Chen Fan''s forehead, and formed countless steel needles. From Protector Sun''s point of view, the latter was at the end of his tether after such a long time of confrontation. Then, it was the familiar compressed space. This crazy old lion''s eyes were already red, every steel needle had Spiritual Consciousness attached, it ''acupuncture'' Chen Fan in all directions. This energy was extremely special, surpassing the level of ordinary Spiritual Energy. Unless Chen Fan directly hid inside the Furnace Body, he would not even be able to stop those pines. Deer God, what is this? Feeling that something was wrong, Chen Fan subconsciously asked, but suddenly recalled that if he fused his own Spiritual Consciousness and the Blood Essence, he could create this kind of strange existence. When he was still in the Supreme Wu Tian, he had made similar attempts, but because the injuries on his body were too great, he did not continue them. Looks like the Protector Sun really did use True Fire, and even used this method. It caused a huge amount of damage to his body, as though his body was trying to squeeze out the source of energy. Just by controlling the Furnace Body, Chen Fan had consumed the anger of the fellow in front of him, and even the Heavenly Heart Formula was almost unable to keep up. In any case, there was not much use in blocking them, and there was no use in keeping them ¨C this was the first time he had met such a powerful expert that did not care for his own life, and Chen Fan just could not do anything about it. In just a few breaths of time, even though he had also launched a lot of resistance, and even the Lingyu of the Seven Heavenly Feather Transformations had been sent flying out to contend against them, the steel needles formed by the Spiritual Energy had still turned Chen Fan into a hedgehog. As they continuously corroded the Spiritual Consciousness, they would also, under the control of the Protector Sun, delve deep into their flesh and blood to absorb and wear down Chen Fan''s life force, just like maggots on the bones. A Golden Core Stage Ranker attacking with all his might, especially with such a frontal assault, really responded to that line, Chen Fan can''t even be stopped by using a heaven defying method. It had only been a few rounds, but it had already stripped him of at least sixty to seventy percent of his cultivation. If he continued to squeeze it out like this, he would not even have the strength to use the Pagoda Art to leave. To be able to compare me to this extent, you guys are truly capable. The same words came out of Protector Sun''s mouth once again, but this time he truly believed that victory was assured. It was as if he could see the scene of tens of thousands of disciples worshipping Chen Fan while holding that great head of Chen Fan in their hands. Go! Seeing that Nangong Xuan had successfully escaped, Chen Fan no longer hesitated, and directly transformed into a stream of light, piercing towards the ground. When he was aware of the pain, he was the first to notice the change in the situation. Neither of them had escaped to the ground. They staggered like madmen and used their hands to cover their swollen foreheads. They were as stupid as they could be. The power of the Spell Formation had not lost its effect, which was why this had happened. Heh heh, these two fellows must have been stupid to use such a method to escape. Fortunately, Protector Sun had foresight and sealed the surrounding three thousand meters of ground in advance, not to mention trying to escape. I think they definitely know that they can''t beat Protector Sun and want to commit suicide. The Yuan Sect disciples discussed animatedly, laughing from head to toe, and did not let go of this opportunity to mock him. In their eyes, Chen Fan and Nangong Xuan were clearly in a fight. They suddenly reached towards the ground and ruthlessly rebounded back, and just looking at it caused their flesh to ache. Is that your plan? Nangong Xuan looked at Chen Fan with a bitter face, and the two of them started to pack their bags at the same time. No one held back at that moment. They were trying their best to escape from this place. The higher their cultivation, the more powerful the impact would be. What was going on? Chen Fan was also completely confused. Even if the Deer God had a dark history of happily teasing people, he would not do anything funny at this kind of juncture. Moreover, he had already personally investigated it. The degree of softness was completely capable of being used as the Earth Escape Technique of the Pagoda Art. It was too unbelievable. Could it be that this old man had changed the Formation Pattern at the last moment? That shouldn''t be the case. Time was running out, there was no time for him to react. Inside the Zifu Space, the Deer God was also puzzled. Old Sun, you almost got the short end of the stick again. If you let them escape again, it would take a few days to get back. Yet another elderly figure descended. What a coincidence, yet another familiar face in Chen Fan''s eyes. Protector Lv, who had once welcomed him outside the Yuan Sect, had also been sent out to search for him. Thank you, Brother Lu. Protector Sun cupped his hands. It could be seen that he held some respect for the latter. Amongst the hundred or so Protectors of the Yuan Sect, he was only at the middle to lower level. His strength and position were far inferior to this Protector Lv. Gu Feng, why do you say that? You must put up a last-ditch effort and get caught in the end. Protector Lv took a step forward, but he still maintained a distance of twenty meters between them with extreme caution. Chen Fan did not speak, only then did he realize, why was Protector Sun suddenly on stimulants, it was because there was someone monitoring them from the side. Don''t think about running away anymore. I have long noticed your action of destroying the Spell Formation. A wise glint appeared in Protector Lv''s eyes, as if he had seen through everything. From the place where you stood, to the area of five kilometers, you have already reinforced the stronger Spell Formation. C115 Originally, Protector Lv didn''t even plan to waste time talking to him. It was precisely because he saw Chen Fan consecutively shoot out all kinds of forbidden weapons, yet now, he was in a composed and composed position. Strictly speaking, he was afraid of the Third Elder. The surrounding space has been sealed too severely, so the effect of my jade platform would be minimized and I would only be able to teleport about 30 kilometers away. Nangong Xuan said nervously. It was not that she could not activate it, but she did not have the conditions to use the jade platform. Really? Then I''ll split the sky and see if I can make a door out of it, hahaha. Chen Fan did not bother with Nangong Xuan, and continued to laugh, the eyes of the two protectors flashed with hostility. But before they could launch an attack, a change occurred in the air. With a rumbling sound, signs of a Heavenly Thunder appeared. Furthermore, the surrounding space was still filled with a deathly chill. The wind was gradually blowing and a white line had appeared in the distant sky. This was the prelude to the impending storm. What game are you playing now? The Protector Sun questioned, deciding that Chen Fan had something similar. Earlier, you underestimated your clan''s elder, but now, you overestimated him. Chen Fan did not think so, to be able to anger the two protectors at the same time, was of great benefit to him. If he could summon out this lightning cloud with any of his treasures, he would have long overturned the position of Sect Leader. His wide sleeves fluttered, enveloping all the nearby skies. A hazy mist appeared out of nowhere, enveloping Chen Fan within a thick layer of cocoons. Chen... Be careful, Master Gu! Nangong Xuan cried out in alarm, and almost exposed Chen Fan''s real name, but fortunately it stopped just in time, and the others did not notice. The cultivation of this Protector Lv was definitely stronger than the Protector Sun by a lot. From the amount of Spiritual Energy he activated, one could tell that he was at least two small steps away from his. This was probably the reason why the latter put so much effort in this'' show ''. He was worried that the Protector Lv would report him. Regardless of who was stronger, or who was weaker, Chen Fan could do nothing about it. His movements were fast, as he flapped the wings behind him with all his might. The surging wind contained a blazing splendor that was not weaker than the ten thousand steel needles. However, it was still unable to break through this layer of seemingly thin and thin layer, but in reality, it was even more solid than fine iron. After a few moments, the mist started to become denser, and Chen Fan managed to seal his five senses in time. However, he did not expect that under the suppression of his physical body, it felt like a small mountain had fallen on his shoulder. The fog was hazy, and could be blown away with a light breath, but it had suddenly gathered around a square inch, causing one to be unable to see what methods Protector Lv had used. It was so hard that Chen Fan was almost unable to endure it. At least several tens of thousands of kilograms of strength descended, his left arm released a creaking sound, as if he was unable to bear the pressure, and was about to be crippled. In addition to the fog''s sealing effect on the Spiritual Consciousness, Chen Fan could only watch as his arms softened. He was extremely clear in his heart, but he was unable to put up any resistance. At the most critical moment, the Deer God had to move the Spiritual Consciousness out of his Zifu Space and bring the Dao Burning Furnace out again. Only then, did the crisis finally ease a little. Using the Soaring Slash to transform into a stream of light, he barely managed to squeeze out from a corner of the crevice. Chen Fan''s face was pale white, obviously having suffered heavy injuries. This did not affect his battle will at all. He casually took out a green gourd and gulped down several mouthfuls of it. His entire body was shrouded in life force. When he was within a certain range, his breathing could even absorb pure energy. It made him feel relaxed and envious at the same time. Even if I have to hang on, I''ll still exhaust all of that old fellow''s Spiritual Being. Let''s see what else you need to do. The bottle gourd in his hand was filled with Spirit Liquid that the Third Elder had refined painstakingly. This was something he had specially prepared to bestow upon the younger disciples, and it contained a rich life force. As long as he drank a mouthful, he would be able to feel the cultivation barrier loosen up, which was not inferior to the benefit of devouring thousands of Spiritual Stone. And it was such a waste to drink so much just like Chen Fan did. Those disciples were so angry that they rushed over to fight with him. Sharp rays of light scattered in all directions, flying to all corners of the sky and even diving down from the depths of the clouds, targeting Chen Fan''s head. Protector Sun and Yue Yang had silently approved of the killing intent towards the latter. When they were hiring assassins at the inn, they had this thought. If they allowed him to continue running like this, he might really waste all of the Third Elder''s wealth in the end. However, these two small Protectors were unable to contain their anger. Deer God, don''t let others see through you this time. Chen Fan secretly indicated for the old fellow to continue giving pointers, so he might as well continue modifying Protector Lv''s Spell Formation. What are you trying to do, boy? Deer God asked, puzzled. It was about time to break through to the next realm. Chen Fan laughed coldly, this was the only thing he could think of. You have to take it easy, don''t go to extremes easily, the importance of Foundation Building Stage, you shouldn''t need this old man to explain too much. The Deer God became serious and quickly guessed Chen Fan''s intentions. He did do as he was told. He looked at the lines on the ground and continued to give pointers from time to time. Chen Fan rose into the air, doing his best to avoid being tracked by the mist, as well as controlling Lingyu to form a protective shield, and at the same time resisting the dozen or so experts whose realms were far above his. The Spiritual Energy in his body was rapidly depleting, and the current Chen Fan even felt that he was just a pure carrier, converting his vitality and their anger into destructive energy, then unceasingly counterattacking. However, this cycle was impossible to complete. Even though the Heavenly Heart Formula could be delayed for a few hours, his body still had a limit. Protector Lv also did not use his full strength and played the game of catching mice ¡ª this cat''s reaction speed was not worse than a mouse''s when it had the Pagoda Art. Nangong Xuan was also not in a good mood. Being targeted by the Protector Sun, her aged body erupted with a vast amount of pressure. Sssii! * From the start of the fight till now, she had not seen Nangong Xuan use any magical equipment, but she spat out a large amount of Sword Intent and ruthlessly cut open Protector Sun''s robes. The latter was about to become unreadable, and in such a hurry, he couldn''t change to a new cloth to cover his body. He also saw the light yellow paper that Nangong Xuan was urgently pinching in her hands. If you dare to use my Yuan Sect''s treasure again, this protector will tear you into a thousand pieces no matter what! "Bastard! Fortunately, Chen Fan had given her a few spirit runes in advance, so she was able to hold on for a little longer. It was fine before in front of those disciples, but they did not dare to say anything unpleasant. However, Protector Lv did not have much to hide, as long as they returned to the Sect, they would be ridiculed for a very long time. Gu Feng, why are you asking for trouble at such an age? The treatment my Yuan Sect provides can be said to be the most generous in this entire, to the point where no one wants to see it happen today. Protector Lv''s voice was cold, from the moment Chen Fan started to use his spirit runes, the disturbance was already unreconciled, and the Third Elder alone was not enough to get past it. It is up to you, a junior, to point fingers at my actions. Using this identity, Chen Fan finally said the words that he had always wanted to say. Don''t think that just because you''ve cultivated for a hundred years that you can make a judgment on this old man''s arrogance. The former Supreme Wu Tian, lonely to the point of being chased and killed by Golden Core Stage cultivators, was intimidated by the so called Patriarch of the Core Formation Stage, and even unidentified assassins were spying on them from the shadows. If this was a competition that was held on the continent, under the premise that Chen Fan could casually expose his body, he would definitely be able to get the upper hand. You are the same, don''t think that just because you have grasped some unorthodox methods, you can make my Yuan Sect your enemy, and in the end you will still end up dying without a complete corpse. Protector Lv did not want to continue delaying like this, so his expression became colder. Seeing that Chen Fan did not have any intention to negotiate, killing intent rose in his heart. The same silver white Sword Intent was letting out a slight burst of radiance from its mouth, but it was also flashing even more crazily as it was able to absolutely crush the spirit runes in Nangong Xuan''s hands. The old fellow''s methods were extremely terrifying, and the Lex Sabre that appeared in his hand was no ordinary item, at least of an extraordinary rank, able to easily suppress a Core Formation Stage Cultivator. Now, with his full strength, he pointed up into the sky, and could even just barely make out the faint movement of the aura of the stars. If one looked carefully with their naked eyes, one would see that the sword had a few round beads inlaid on it, which corresponded to the shape of the sky and created a feeling of darkness in broad daylight. A few rays of divine light shot out from the pearl, piercing through the heavens and earth, all of them were extremely thick and sturdy, quickly interweaving to form a cage, wanting to seal Chen Fan up again. The sun had been forcefully covered, and the light was pitch-black. The illusions cast by the few round beads were fixed at four sides, and even if those Yuan Sect disciples wanted to attack, they might not be able to shake them. A strange pattern appeared under his feet, and before he even had the chance to dodge, the tip of his sword had already pierced through the void. Sssii! * As if a piece of white paper had been torn to shreds, strands of Sword Intent Qi flowed back and forth, giving off a light aura of 300 meters. This was definitely going to happen, he had to stab Chen Dingdang to death in one strike. With a clang, the Furnace Body blocked the sword body again. It slightly tilted its body and just brushed past Chen Fan''s hair, causing a strand of black hair to fall down. However, the scene just now had been enough to scare him. If he had hesitated even a little, his head might have fallen to the ground. It was clear that they were going to bring the corpse back to the Yuan Sect and give up on capturing it alive. This also caused the former''s situation to suddenly become extremely dangerous. Come, and experience the true might of the Heavenly Dao. Chen Fan''s voice transmitted outwards, it was ethereal, and the two Protectors could not tell where it came from, causing their expressions to change. It was not because of his words, but because of the strange changes that had occurred in the sky. It was unknown when, but a large amount of dark clouds had gathered over. It was so thick that it seemed as if it would not melt any time soon. As it was stirred into a pot of mash, strands of purple light flickered within. Clearly, it was also brewing with a formidable power of thunder and lightning. C116 If it were just an ordinary storm, it wouldn''t be a big deal. With the strength of the two protectors, they wouldn''t be frightened by the weather after cultivating for so many years. However, the solemn aura that pervaded this region, seemed to be increasing along with Chen Fan''s aura, as it gave off a suffocating feeling. It was clear that there was a strong wind whistling through the air, but the two old fellows felt a formless solemness in their bodies, and they were not unfamiliar with it. Crap! Gu Feng, you are playing with fire! Protector Sun and Protector Lv were so angry that they shouted out loud, staring straight at Chen Fan, their old face full of panic. At this moment, they could no longer maintain their indifference. The great situation that should have been won was now reversed by the strange phenomenon in the sky. Hehe, isn''t this just what you want? Let''s go to the Underworld together, we can still look after each other. Chen Fan laughed as he spoke, the expression on his face did not look good either, and he even coughed a few times, his body was indeed not in a good condition. This was his last resort. Facing the attacks of two great protector powerhouses, he had no chance of winning at all. He could only rely on his trump card, the heavenly tribulation, to gain a chance at survival. All disciples, quickly leave this place. The farther the better. Protector Lv quickly said, ordering the young Rankers beside him to retreat. Once the heavenly tribulation descended, the result would be disastrous. The other Protector Sun s were even more direct. They brushed their sleeves and shattered the space, wanting to directly send the former away and avoid this calamity. It''s too late, you little fellows. Remember this, it''s all because of the two of them being implicated. Chen Fan pointed at the two Protector Lv. In any case, it was not on its own, so it didn''t matter how it was written. Actually, Chen Fan had already made this decision the moment he saw Protector Lv appear, it was just that he wasn''t completely confident that he could catch them all in one fell swoop. This was why he was able to forcefully endure two rounds of attacks. Finally, he was able to complete the change in Spell Formation. After that, the familiar Dao Burning Furnace suppressed everything, and everything within a thousand meters of the place was completely sealed. Even if the Heavenly Thunder descended, there was nothing that could be done about the Heavy Treasure. What was going on? Brother Lu, quickly stop the Spell Formation and send them away! Protector Sun wasn''t even able to scout out a few palm prints, and it seemed as if the air had been strengthened several times. Even when he attacked with all his might, he was unable to tear it apart. The Spell Formation that I laid down has been altered too, this old fellow is an array expert! It was only now that Protector Lv suddenly recalled that he had actually taken the initiative to attack an expert who had activated a Yuan Sect Void Tomb. In the end, he still suffered greatly and did not even realize that the space had closed up once again. Although he couldn''t use much offensive power, he could still use it to guard the space around him. All he had to do was wait and see. After casually explaining to Nangong Xuan for a bit, time was of the essence, and she didn''t have the time to say anything else. Chen Fan turned his attention to the clouds in the sky. It was likely that the energy at that place would be poured into his body. Furthermore, this dangerous plan caught him off guard. According to his original plan with the Deer God, he would temporarily break free from the pursuit of his Yuan Sect and then prepare to break into the next realm. With the Third Elder''s Spiritual Being as his foundation, he would definitely be able to complete a thorough baptism. However, the heavens did not do as they wished, and he could only act hastily. Furthermore, because they could sense so many auras fluctuating, the power of the heavenly tribulation would still increase. At the same time they attacked Protector Sun and the others, they would definitely cause even more pressure towards Chen Fan. Rumble rumble rumble! Thunder rumbled, shaking everyone to the point that their ears hurt. After a short period of brewing, the first wave of lightning descended. Lightning was often used as a synonym for how fast one moved. At this moment, it was obvious how fast the lightning bolt was. It simply didn''t give anyone time to react. Chen Fan only felt his vision go black, as if a heavy hammer had just smashed onto his head. He almost fainted on the spot, and only then did he realize that he had been struck by lightning. A crazy destructive force spread throughout their bodies. These fellows were extremely tyrannical, and in the blink of an eye, more than half of their bodies had already fallen. It was also left with important areas such as the heart and the Dantian, which were similarly under the watch of the lightning. Fortunately there was the Deer God overseeing the attack, at least Chen Fan wouldn''t worry about it inside his head. It was a second and a third time. The Heavenly Tribulation couldn''t wait for anyone. All of the lightning bolts that had been condensed earlier poured down like a waterfall. Not only the encirclement of Chen Fan, all the surrounding huge rocks, mountains, and ancient trees had all failed to escape. Whether it was a hundred year old tree''s life force or a thousand year''s worth of trials and tribulations, it was useless to suffer before the might of the heavens. The so-called wrath of the heavens, the most terrifying thing was that this lightning would corrode the life force of cultivators, burning their bodies to ashes. Furthermore, its power was so strong that normal Spiritual Energy s or cultivation techniques could not stop it at all. Furthermore, no matter how many sword images were refined outside, they would all be broken by the lightning. The internal organs of the body were much weaker than it was before. How could they withstand the destructive power of the lightning bolts? In an instant, they were turned into charcoal by a living person. The bone-piercing pain spread across almost every inch of his skin, and was even more dreadful than the ten thousand steel needles that appeared in the Protector Sun before. Even with Chen Fan''s resolute heart, he was slightly shaken. However, that was all. The lightning strikes were truly wreaking havoc in a berserk manner. If it was anyone else who saw his body in such a state, they would definitely be scared half to death. It was just a small scene for Chen Fan, so there was nothing to panic about. Calmly and leisurely, he adjusted the Spiritual Energy in the last few meridians. After he gathered them all into his dantian, he would have a rough estimate of what would happen after this wave of heavenly tribulations arrived. It wouldn''t be too late to start repairing them. Chen Fan only frowned, he completely ignored the intense pain that was able to make people roll all over the ground. In the eyes of Protector Sun and Yue Yang, this was no different from a monster. Even from far away, they still felt it was difficult, and that they could easily face the danger of death. This guy bore the brunt of the impact and faced the fiercest lightning strikes head on. How could he be so calm? Isn''t this just a replica of the Yuan Sect disciples ¡­ After sensing the chaos within his body, Chen Fan muttered to himself somewhat helplessly. Looks like he really had some fate with this Sect. However, now was not the time to ponder over such matters. As an old monster with ten thousand years of experience, he would not be like those noobs and have great resistance to heavenly tribulation. Just like the Yuan Sect fellows who were arrogantly arrogant a moment ago, at this moment all of them were listless. They anxiously used all kinds of methods, wanting to avoid the attack of the heavenly tribulation. However, they did not know that if they could successfully endure this calamity, it would bring them great benefits in terms of cultivation. Chen Fan easily probed into the Spiritual Consciousness s, and urged them to suppress the lightning. C117 Every inch of his body had to be touched. At the same time, during the passive destruction, even the smallest part of his meridians had been tempered. After the remodeling of his life force, he was not only completely new, but he had also improved in quality. Even his entire complexion had changed. It looked to be glowing purple, but at the same time, it started to turn redder and redder, and after the end of the disaster, Chen Fan would be standing on top of a new stage. The Myriad Manifestation Divine Arts circulated rapidly and devoured the violent auras as as much as possible. With endless life force, it first calmed down and then slowly entered the meridians, it was at least the right path. Fortunately, Chen Fan had a good foundation, and during this period of time, he had been trying to take advantage of the Yuan Sect. All of the fat had been stored in the depths of his flesh and blood, before exploding forth. Under the stimulation of the lightning, his body could not truly be destroyed. His life force began to fight with it. The outer layer also had Chen Fan''s consciousness as the leader, as he was intentionally staring at the battlefield. Speaking of which, it seemed like a long time and continued for around half a quarter of an hour. Chen Fan hurriedly activated his lightning bolts, since there was still a second wave of calamity that had yet to come, and would have to flow for a period of time to recover. Without any trace of cultivation, he channeled it into his Dantian, and after going through at least three cycles of reincarnation, it could be considered as Chen Fan''s true cultivation. Just as he stabilized his body, Chen Fan stood up immediately and walked towards the Protector Lv in large strides while bathing in the sea of Heavenly Thunder. A group of Yuan Sect disciples cowered and reunited, jointly resisting the baffling heavenly tribulation. Originally, they wouldn''t have mentioned such a thing in their lives. Both Protector Lv and Protector Sun stood as far away as possible, hiding their auras to the extreme, not daring to emit the slightest bit of the Spiritual Energy''s fluctuations. The two of them were Golden Core Stage experts, so once the Heavenly Dao sensed them, they would definitely be enraged. A quarter of an hour ago, Protector Lv was still waving his Lex Sabre, but now, he was letting the broken sword drop to the ground. Hahaha, this is truly a strange story. How could a dignified Expert From Yuan Sect display such panic at a time like this? Chen Fan walked over and bent down to pick up the sword. Protector Lv''s heart skipped a beat at that moment. Old man, what are you trying to do? This protector warns you, don''t act recklessly! Oh, this is the Yuan Sect disciple in this old man''s impression. No matter what, he must maintain the most basic level of strength, and he cannot lower the prestige of our First Sect s. Chen Fan was overjoyed to see this. Seeing these two old fellows, who wanted to kill him at all costs, Chen Fan''s eyes showed extreme panic. Come, come, how could such a good Lex Sabre be casually thrown away? As soon as he finished his words, before Chen Fan could even give the body of the sword to Protector Lv, the latter''s face suddenly turned pale white. Ka-cha! * Thick bolts of lightning descended, flashing in a long purple light. Everything else vanished, leaving only that dazzling purple light that blazed brilliantly in the sky. Even though they were more than five kilometers away, they could feel the destructive and majestic power. It was as if it wanted to destroy this world, and its goal was to devour Chen Fan. Ah! Miserable screams sounded out continuously, and immediately after, two disciples were infected by the Heavenly Thunder, and in a moment they were on fire. Their internal organs were all controlled, and a dense death aura spread out. In just a few short breaths of time, they had already turned into charcoal and were lying on the ground like wooden stakes. Under the assault of the unconscious Heavenly Thunder, the Human Clan cultivators were actually no different from the ancient trees beside them. At most, they had slightly more resistance, and the result was no different. Gu Feng, are you really going to kill us all!? I''ll fight you old bastard! The remaining disciples were filled with fear, and then, realizing that they had nowhere to go, they suddenly developed fighting spirit and shouted at Chen Fan. He didn''t think that the Yuan Sect disciples'' memory would be so poor. Just a quarter of an hour ago, you were still beating me to death. With that question, no one would care about it. It was a reasonable answer, but it was concealed by the rumbling Heavenly Thunder. The remaining ten or so disciples simply did not have the opportunity to get close to Chen Fan. As long as he went anywhere, the dark clouds above his head would quickly gather; The Light Shield that they had temporarily propped up was instantly shattered the moment it came into contact with the purple light. Everyone continued to retreat, but there was no place left for them. In order to prevent Chen Fan from escaping, the Protector Lv had intentionally set up a Spell Formation in the sealed space. Instead, it was used by the former as a carrier for the Dao Burning Furnace, making it impossible for anyone to escape. Ka-cha! * Ka-cha! * Ka-cha! * The purple light continued to descend, and was much more powerful than the Sword Intent. Although these disciples were Foundation Establishment, they had never experienced true heavenly tribulation. As long as one had tried this kind of experiential learning when breaking through, they would not be able to strike out in such a fragile and unremitting manner. Under the catalysis of the thunder and lightning aura, the seemingly solid foundation also appeared to be floating. In the end, only a portion of it was cooked alive. As for the mastermind, after Chen Fan deliberately stirred and provoked him multiple times, the Heavenly Thunder still set its eyes on him. A small patch of dark cloud also appeared on top of Protector Sun''s head. It wasn''t large, but it was enough for him to take a sip. They had no choice but to use the sword body to resist, but it would attract more Heavenly Thunder to descend, causing the size of this lightning tribulation to continue to increase. He was normally a high and mighty Protector, but once he was casually swept by the purple light, his body immediately began to shake violently. It was definitely because his internal organs were suffering from severe pain as well. He was much stronger than those disciples, and would not lose his life in a short while. Naturally, he unleashed a large number of Sword Intent s along with those few orbs, forming a new defensive state. With his years of experience of cultivation and experience of similar crises, he actually found a way to neutralize them. A large portion of the Heavenly Thunder s were hedged together by the Sword Intent. The destructive force was still present, but had been induced by the sword body to dissipate into the air, causing the damage to the Protector Lv to be minimized. As long as he was able to endure until the end of the Celestial Tribulation, he would be able to survive. Bang! This time, Chen Fan took the risk and threw out a punch, causing the purple light that was initially condensed in his body to turn towards Protector Lv. The initially stable virtuous circle could not withstand any external force and was completely shattered, leaving the latter with no hope of survival. Gu Feng, since you want to perish together with me, this protector will fulfill your wish! Protector Lv let out a roar, and unreservedly expanded his own aura, charging straight into the clouds, instantly expanding the rolling of the black clouds by several times. Although he would be the one to bear the majority of these kinds of Golden Core Stage tribulations, as long as he could get rid of Chen Fan in a small portion, it would be enough to kill him. Ah, you can''t be so naive as to think I''m unprepared. Shaking his head, Chen Fan did something that caused even the Protector Lv to be extremely shocked. He threw his head back and roared loudly, drawing all of the s towards him fearlessly. Adding on the Protector Lv''s sinister attacks, the total amount was quite a lot. The violet light that was attracted by the latter all entered his mouth, and followed his throat all the way down. His entire body was glowing with a violet light. He was like a balloon filled with air. His body seemed to have expanded a little, and his aura fluctuated even faster. He silently threw out the Myriad Manifestation Divine Arts, using all of his strength to refine the lightning bolt. This was the good fortune that descended from the heavens. In any case, the Protector Lv was busy dealing with his own heavenly tribulation and did not have the time to disturb him. The other disciples did not have the guts to do so either. It was precisely because of his violent devouring that the surrounding area was momentarily drained of energy. It should be because there was no threat. Those people could see even more clearly, and still did not dare to approach. If it suddenly exploded, it wouldn''t be as simple as death, but it would be thoroughly ground into smithereens. He swallowed the Heavenly Thunder? And he took the initiative to do it, what a lunatic! Am I seeing things? Gu Feng wants to refine the Heavenly Thunder?! Seeing this scene, several disciples were even slightly happy. They had never heard of anyone being so crazy. This was the genuine Sky Law, which young genius would try his best to avoid it when undergoing his tribulation? When it came to Chen Fan ¡­ What was even more shocking was that after the purple light entered Chen Fan''s body, it did not explode as expected. Instead, it calmed down very quickly. He sat in a meditative pose for a while and then stood up as if nothing had happened, as if they were all hallucinating, what Chen Fan had swallowed was just normal spiritual energy. Whoosh! Ignoring all the discussions, which were just a bunch of bored people on the verge of death, Chen Fan let out a long breath, feeling incomparable comfortable. Finally, his dantian was once again plentiful. Relying on the contribution of the Myriad Divine Arts and his exceptionally tough meridians, he successfully snatched a mouthful of meat from the heavenly tribulation to eat. Even if he did not have such a method, he could have just hid inside a Dao Burning Furnace and even the heavenly tribulation of the Yuan Sect Sect Leader would not be able to shake the Furnace Body. On the other side, the Protector Lv, filled with unwillingness and despair, truly explained what it meant to reap what they sowed. After the howling wind that never stopped blowing, there was not even a speck of it left. It was completely gone from this world. At this time, Protector Sun, who had finally led a few disciples to the edge of the electric sea, was also suffering from an approaching catastrophe, which was completely implicated by the former. Since he had already fallen, he naturally couldn''t say anything more. He could only bitterly endure, finding it difficult to find a way out. Can you tell those guys up there for your sake and give me more freedom? Chen Fan gritted his teeth in pain. His dao heart was firm, but it did not mean he was completely unaware of the pain. No matter who it was, a large portion of their body would be destroyed and then rebuilt anew. This kind of reincarnation was enough to torture them to death. C118 Tsk, I didn''t come with you to deal with you. It''s already a pretty good treatment, and you''re even being picky about it. Mentioning this Deer God made him extremely angry. This period of time was really depressing, and the situation was completely incompatible with his noble identity. Besides, if he could talk to them, how could he have ended up in such a pitiful state? It was no wonder that the Deer God had said such words. The path of cultivation was itself defying the will of the heavens, from his perspective, any living being should follow his orders and be controlled. However, there were people who wanted to absorb the Spiritual Energy s, so as to strengthen their own bodies, the ''family members'' of the Deer God would naturally become angry, and use the method of tribulation lightning to stop them. If these cultivators were allowed to grow up freely, they might very well become a threat to the Heavenly Dao. Therefore, every time thunder and lightning struck, the Heavenly Dao would manifest itself. At that time, if he had rested for a few days, he might have been able to catch up to Little Cao and the others in their great battle and gain a better understanding of the Dao of the Heavens. Looking at the reformed and surging lightning bolt in the air, Chen Fan was somewhat regretful. Once upon a time, he could gently dissipate this kind of lightning tribulation with a single finger. After saying it so many times, don''t call him little Cao, as a dignified Ancient Saint, he still cared about face, it was fine even if he didn''t call him Cao Rui. Deer God couldn''t help but retort. This way, he would always have the feeling that Chen Fan was taking advantage of him. If Cao Zhen was standing here and heard me calling him Ancient Saint, he would probably be even more terrified. How could there be the principle of master honoring and honoring his disciple? Chen Fan didn''t feel that there was anything wrong with it. Go to hell. No matter what, I am your senior, so I can''t be bothered to argue with you. Deer God retreated back into his Zifu Space while cursing. Speaking of the truth, the reason why Cao Rui and the others participated in the battle was because of the matter regarding the heavens. no one could clearly explain the reason anymore. Deer God was definitely not willing to talk about his sorrows. In short, it was the first time Cultivation Realm fought against the heavens with equal status. From then on, the future generations of Cultivator did not have to suffer the tribulations of lightning anymore, at least those below Nascent Infant were able to avoid the pain of body tempering. Of course, there would still be people who would choose to train themselves. After all, in the minority, even a fool like Nangong Xuan would understand their threat to the heavens and would be able to enjoy the baptism of thunder and lightning without being summoned. Passing the tribulation was definitely harder than other ordinary people. This was also a difficulty that geniuses had to endure. If they wanted to wear the crown, they had to bear the burden. This was a very simple reasoning. The heavenly tribulation still continued, and was extremely strong as well. Countless rays of purple light converged from all directions, and with Chen Fan as the center, they all chopped down. And it was also at this moment that Chen Fan could clearly hear the sound of something shattering from within his body. The fatigue that had bound him for a very long time was finally broken apart by the heavenly tribulation. Although he had a way to dispel it long ago, it was still more appropriate for the key to be infused with the power of the heavens, making it convenient for him to enter this critical realm and grow in the future. The purple light enveloped him within. The power of the formation was enormous, no less than the suppression of the entire sky. The resplendent purple light was extremely bright. It was so gorgeous that it could even burn the naked eye. It was like a new round of sunlight, compared to it, Chen Fan was so small that it was almost negligible. He utilized all of his methods, and practically all the Spiritual Energy and life force he had accumulated in every corner of his body were completely drained. Even the two wings on his back swelled up as they flapped continuously, doing their best to resist the erosion of the thunder tribulation. It had only been a few dozen breaths of time, and from what Chen Fan and the other few disciples felt, a good half a day had already passed, and every breath of time was unbearable and torturous. The Holy Maiden, who was peerless in its generation, would also welcome the evening scenery. After all, a talented person would eventually die in his old age, and this heavenly tribulation, which had never flourished before, would finally start to decline after reaching its peak. In the end, all of the lightning scattered in all directions. The purple light disappeared, leaving behind a hundred zhang large divine pit. The area within five li was completely razed to the ground. Waves of blue smoke rose into the air. The raging inferno was also carried away by the receding heavenly tribulation. The charred ground was filled with countless cracks; it would take at least several decades before it was completely restored to normal. Dead? A few disciples who were still spectating from the sidelines all cast their gazes over. When they saw that Chen Fan was not there, they were astonished and couldn''t help but reveal expressions of joy. The dying Protector Sun struggled for a bit. His cultivation was not high, but Protector Lv went first. They barely managed to reach out with their Spiritual Consciousness s to search the surroundings, but they really didn''t sense any signs of life. He had long since said that when playing with fire, one would burn oneself. That old fellow actually still wanted to melt the Heavenly Thunder into his body. They all let out a sigh of relief. Their lives had been saved. Master Gu! Nangong Xuan cried out in alarm, and her beautiful face also paled. Even when she was forced into such a desperate strait by Protector Sun, she still did not reveal such an expression. Other than the fact that Chen Fan was related to the strange illness that had troubled her for more than twenty years, the past few days of fighting shoulder to shoulder, as well as the many times he had made contact with her, naturally caused Holy Maiden to have some feelings for her. Nangong Yi had hinted many times, and had always been bringing Chen Fan and her together to form a dao companion. Only the former could see the marriage, but he had never thought that it would disappear under the influence of the Heavenly Thunder. Hurry, hurry, hurry. Quickly, find the scattered Spiritual Being s, don''t be hacked to pieces by them. Suddenly, he remembered that he had to help the Third Elder carry the little treasury back. Just now, when the purple light had retreated, there was no sign of any Spiritual Being that flew out. But after a while, the few disciples still did not receive any feedback. Other than the charred ground, there was no signs of any Spiritual Being. Protector Sun was supported to personally move out, but was unable to accomplish anything after a few rounds. His face was extremely gloomy, as though he wanted to dive into the crevice and die. After taking so many blows, even with his hundred years of cultivation, he was on the verge of collapse. This darn old fellow didn''t forget to trap me even before he died. He''s taking all those Spiritual Being to die with him! Protector Sun scolded hatefully. The warm feeling that had just risen in his heart immediately turned cold once again. The Spiritual Being that was unable to get back the Third Elder, and without the Protector Lv, who blocked them, would return to the Yuan Sect in this state. If he were to report this matter to the higher ups, it would be hard for him to escape death. Who would have thought that Chen Fan, who had such a large age, would actually still be able to use such a ruthless trump card. He did not hesitate to commit suicide, and even used the power of thunder tribulation to perish together with them. It''s all because of you, I want you to pay the price! Nangong Xuan screamed. If not for these people chasing and killing him, Chen Fan would not have been able to get through the tribulation so quickly. C119 Arrest her and go back to face the consequences! Protector Sun shouted coldly. The main culprit had disappeared. The main culprit could only be used to fend off the fury of some of the elders. This way, he might be able to escape death. I have let you down again, but I still have to apologize. Chen Fan appeared like a ghost, reaching out with his palm towards Protector Sun, instantly piercing through the latter''s body and collapsing onto the ground. He was already spent, his body looked like it was about to be squeezed dry. He didn''t even know if he could safely return to the Yuan Sect, much less at this moment. With the breakthroughs that Chen Fan had brought with his, he had still crushed all of his defenses. Her old face even had some surprise and unwillingness on it, but he was not much different from his senior brother. Protector Sun is dead! A few disciples exclaimed, there was no hope, who would have thought that Chen Fan would suddenly appear again, they were all stunned. He was only trying to figure out how far he could channel the Pagoda Art after breaking through and hiding in the depths of the void. He could not help but feel overjoyed. This old man will let you live, and be honest with me. Go back and tell the Third Elder that he doesn''t need to think about these Spiritual Being. Chen Fan''s tone was vicious, with a condescending attitude, he even felt that this was a bit too much. It was obviously someone else''s item. After much searching, not only did it fail, it even received such a threat. Humph, you''d better tell that to the old man yourself. One of the disciples said as he straightened his neck. What do you mean? Chen Fan''s heart thumped, he felt that something was amiss. Boom! What responded to him was a huge pillar of light that fell from the sky, directly piercing through the heaven and earth. It was incomparably thick, and it fiercely smashed into the ground. It looked like a bronze material with strange patterns engraved on the surface. At this moment, it was glowing brightly, which was why it looked like it was made by a Spiritual Energy. Not only that, but even more huge pillars appeared in the distant horizon. There were more than ten of them, and they could even cover the sky above their heads. This momentum was even more overwhelming and tyrannical than when the heavenly tribulation descended. The surrounding Spiritual Energy and the air were all at a standstill at the same time. That''s why the Protector Lv method has already crushed the Jade Chip that informed the Third Elder. He had long ago rushed over, today is destined to be your day of death. The few disciples moved behind the huge pillar, all of them sneered at Chen Fan, and then revealed the truth. Brat, hurry up and leave. That old man is setting up a grand formation that will destroy the heavens and destroy the earth. You won''t be able to withstand him! Deer God warned him from within the Zifu Space, and even his voice had changed. How could he not be anxious? A dignified elder had personally gone out to chase and kill a Foundation Building Stage cultivator, and yet he had to go through such a huge formation. It could be seen how infuriated he was. The area within a radius of 50 miles is completely vacuum. After five breaths of time, the space will be compressed, and we may be crushed into meat patties! Nangong Xuan was the only one who understood the true way of formations. She was able to understand one or two of the great formations that the two protectors had laid down consecutively. Then what are we waiting for? Although Chen Fan knew that the old fellow would not really shatter his own life, he still had to escape in a hurry. However, before he left, Chen Fan had still hidden himself underground and appeared again as a Seal, ruthlessly attacking those few Yuan Sect disciples who were gloating over his misfortune. Puff! Puff! Puff! They had never expected such a disaster to occur. They had only assumed that Chen Fan was unable to protect himself and only two managed to survive. The rest had instantly followed Protector Sun. Bastard, come back here! The third clan elder roared, a large hand extended out from the void, and chased after Chen Fan through the concealed grounds. In the end, it was the Senior Expert with extremely powerful strength. A ravine appeared on the ground that was more than fifty miles long, like the scar of a centipede. It was only when Chen Fan and Mu Yurou had reached a depth of several hundred meters that they did not disturb the surface of the earth, but the pursuit still continued. He was done for. How could he get the killer to come over? This was bad! Feeling the terrifying pressure from the large hand behind him, Chen Fan''s small face turned green as he quickly tried to think of a countermeasure. This was different from the previous experts of the protectors. They would be exhausted after chasing for a distance. The third elder was definitely still moving on the ground. How could he give up so easily when he had finally locked onto Chen Fan''s position? If it wasn''t because he was worried that Chen Fan had another helper, the Third Elder might have even jumped down from his seat. The jade platform can no longer be used. Do you have any more powerful spirit runes left? Nangong Xuan urged them, although the two of them were in light state, they could still see each other''s bodies clearly. Bang! Bang! Bang! Without waiting for the former to speak, Chen Fan had already started preparing for it. The continuous stream of forbidden weapons were thrown towards him at the risk of his life, or at least the full powered attack of a Golden Core Stage Ranker. Moreover, the scorching heat waves and high temperatures spread out at the same time. It was as if they wanted to stir up the magma underground, causing the hard earth to melt as it flowed towards that large hand. This was the true might of the forbidden weapon. Previously, he was not even willing to use it in front of Protector Lv, but now that he was surrounded by the scarlet red lava, even the speed of his palms had decreased. After all, everything in the world would be afraid of flames and Heavenly Thunder, and the latter was currently not within Chen Fan''s control. Hm? The Third Elder was startled for a moment, he did not expect Chen Fan to have such a strong resistance, but he quickly regained his senses. Ah!" Gu Feng, you old bastard, go to hell! This time around, his anger was not light. As his sleeves danced, more energy poured out. It was all added onto that palm and instantly solidified once again. At the same time, heavy attacks continued to come from beneath their feet. They surrounded and killed two people from several hundred meters away, and a string of Seal landed in front of them. They had been moving at a high speed to begin with, and now they had to avoid the outside interference, so naturally, Chen Fan and Yue Yang didn''t feel good about this feeling. We can''t go any deeper. The pressure on us will increase by several times. We will both be crushed to death. Nangong Xuan warned. Ai, if this old man had come earlier, then he would have exploded him with heavenly tribulation. Chen Fan muttered to himself and sighed repeatedly. If he lost an elder because of his Yuan Sect, it would definitely cause a huge uproar. Facing this level of Ranker, there seemed to be some chance of survival if one hid inside the Dao Burning Furnace, but the consequences would be no less than a long seal. The third elder would definitely suppress him and bring him back to Yuan Yan to watch over him. At that time, who knew how many years it would be before he would be able to escape. Perhaps he had already arrived, but he was just watching and waiting. Deer God said in a faint voice, but it was already too late. The most important thing was still the people chasing after him. Chen Chu continued to search for more treasures inside the Storage Bag. Without thinking, he directly blew himself up and used the aftermath to obstruct the third clan elder''s attack. All of this exposed the two''s location. Along the way, they were covered in dirt, as if they had been trampled by mice. The shock wave from the explosion was blocked by the third elder''s sleeve, so it did not have much of an impact. In this kind of pursuit, just one or two breaths of time was not enough to show any advantage. Even the heat wave was forcefully sealed by the former, turning it into an oppressing wall of ice and almost caused Chen Gang to crash into it. F * ck, those were all things of this old man. On the contrary, it had further stimulated his anger. It was truly a misstep. Chen Fan woke up with a start. It was good to use it against the two protectors, but it was not enough for the Third Elder. Nangong Xuan and him did not even have the slightest thought of fighting, the difference in strength was simply natural. It was as if they were gathering and surging, but they were just ants that fell into the gutter. A week ago, Holy Maiden and the former ten thousand year old Zhi Zun were on the verge of vomiting blood after being chased to the point of vomiting blood by the Third Elder. When he found out the truth one day, his expression would definitely be very interesting. We can''t just keep on running. If we can''t, we''ll just jump into the earth''s core. Chen Fan suddenly suggested. Are you crazy! Nangong Xuan continuously shook her head, this thought was simply too extreme. In your current state, you simply cannot endure the flow of the Spiritual Energy in the Earth Vein. She could still hold on for a little longer, but with Chen Fan''s control, his body would definitely be in pieces before her. Furthermore, the number of Spiritual Energy in the Earth Vein was enormous, they were the real vast waves, and any external objects that entered would be forcibly destroyed. In fact, it could be said that they didn''t even need the Feng Shui lines to attack and suppress them, as normal waves could crush everything. That was the energy source that was supplied to the entire Cultivation Realm. It was precisely because of this that the Third Elder did not dare to chase after them. After all, it would still be death, not to mention that I still have a beautiful woman with me, so it''s worth it. Chen Fan said happily, the more he thought about it, the more reliable he felt. Ordinary people would definitely die if they were to fall, but he, a mighty Zhi Zun, still had a hidden trump card in his hand. As long as it was not one of the nine great earth meridians that were hidden under the few transcendent powers, the rest of these little gadgets would not have much of an impact on him. After that, without explanation, Chen Fan slapped Nangong Xuan''s back with her palm. With more than a thousand kilograms of brute force flowing into her body, all she needed to do was for her to change directions slightly. In the next moment, all of them entered the Dao Burning Furnace s. Fortunately, they had chased away the Deer God earlier, otherwise, the old fellow would definitely have been exposed. Was this also one of the third elder''s magic treasures? Nangong Xuan was in disbelief, logically speaking, it was impossible for an Elder Ranker''s Heavy Treasure to be deciphered by Chen Fan. Furthermore, he still needed a huge amount of Spiritual Energy s to activate it. All the signs seemed to have nothing to do with the former. From the ancestors at home, I''ll be floating on this for a while. Without further ado, Chen Fan ordered the Dao Burning Furnace to enter the deeper parts of the Earth Vein. The large hands behind him arrived in a flash, but there were no signs of them. C120 An Earth Vein that was surging was entirely formed from the purest Spiritual Energy. Even if the Third Elder were to jump in himself, it would only take a very short period of time. A divine light shot out from his eyes as he stared fixedly at the earth''s vein for a while. Then, the third elder let out a long sigh. Misfortune. It was truly a misfortune. As far as he was concerned, Chen Fan and Yue Shan had definitely been washed to death by the Spiritual Energy. As for his Spiritual Being, they naturally ended up as accompanying him in death. There was nothing he could do. He couldn''t risk his old life to search for it. He could only fly into the sky and collect all the pillars, leaving behind a scene of devastation. Furthermore, the scene inside the vein of the earth, was indeed what Chen Fan had expected. For many years, there had not been any external objects that had stayed in this place, and it was obvious. Within the Furnace Body space, the two of them were able to clearly sense the vast aura of the Spiritual Energy in the outside world, and it was even to the point that it caused one to feel fear. To cultivators, this was a huge temptation, and similarly, it was the fastest way to seek death. As long as they left the Furnace Body space, they would turn into primordial spirit energy in less than three breaths of time. Chen Fan had even gone deeper than that. Not only did he have the experience of going deeper into the Earth Vein, he had even forcefully stirred the entire Earth Vein during a battle with a certain Ancient Saint. Of course, that was all from the past. He was still being hunted by the entire world, and he didn''t even have the strength to fight back. Nangong Xuan was full of curiosity, and probably not many people in the entire Hua Ding Sect had this kind of feeling, to actually be able to come here and take a step before the Core Condensating. Moreover, along the way, they would occasionally encounter other ''external objects''. Just like them, due to various coincidences, they would enter the Earth Veins. Or perhaps it was a dilapidated ancient tree. Although it looked normal, it was able to flow unscathed through the earth''s veins. This showed just how strong its body was. Or perhaps it was a strange magic treasure. It was showing signs of cracking and its surface was dim. To it, the Feng Shui Line was just an ordinary small river. One could even catch a glimpse of the Human Clan cultivators lying flat on their backs. However, they no longer had any life force and had already become corpses many years ago. Even so, after death, one could guarantee that they would not rot and their spirituality would not disappear. From this, one could see how powerful they were when they were alive. It turned out that he had only heard that there were many lucky chances hidden within the earth''s core. Today was the first time he had seen this, and it was simply too mystical. Nangong Xuan said excitedly, even temporarily suppressing her pain. There must be a long story hidden behind every magic treasure and corpse. Chen Fan sighed, if it wasn''t for the Furnace Body protecting him, with his current condition, he wouldn''t even be able to keep his corpse inside. Kid, when you are free in the future, come and take a look. If you can get those corpses, then you will definitely profit greatly. Deer God gave a weird laugh. He must have found something good at the same time, to be able to drift in the earth vein for a long time, even a fool would know that it was not of ordinary rank. Come on, you''re the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao. I can''t take on a mission like this. Chen Fan shook his head. In comparison, his life was more important. I am an emissary of the heavens, and the things on the ground require your help. The Deer God retaliated. He was clearer than Nangong Xuan about the good fortune in the channels, but she did not see it before, and now that she was going to come out empty-handed, she felt indignant. Old man, are you for real? Chen Fan curled his lips, directly stopping the former''s thoughts. At the very least, he would have to wait until his Nascent Infant Stage was restored before he would have the qualification to enter the Earth Vein. Very quickly, Nangong Xuan no longer had the intention to watch the show. No one knew why, but the speed of the movement of the earth vein suddenly increased by a lot, and the two of them seemed to be drowning. Chen Fan at most controlled the defense of the Dao Burning Furnace, so how could he have the strength to resist the Earth Vein. What was going on? Nangong Xuan panicked. She had never experienced this before, and these surrounding Spiritual Energy were all heavy bombs. She was even more worried that the Dao Burning Furnace would not be able to withstand the impact, and if it split open, they would not be able to escape death. I''m not sure either. Maybe it was due to the disturbance in the Feng Shui lines, but after a while, it would be fine. In Chen Fan''s memories, there was indeed such a saying. After all, it was completely composed of Spiritual Energy s, so there would definitely be some movement in the Feng Shui lines. However, the probability of this happening was very small. After all, the size of the Feng Shui lines was very large, and many of the normal waves would be eliminated. Even after a hundred years, he might not be so unlucky today. Chen Fan was also unsure about this, but he believed more in the toughness of the Dao Burning Furnace s. The two of them staggered along the way. It was unknown how much time had passed. In addition, they were both heavily injured, so they unknowingly fainted as they cultivated. When he regained consciousness, he found himself in a mysterious space. "Kid, wake up, it''s time for good fortune!" Deer God woke Chen Fan up. On the way, he had to take care of the Furnace Body, so as to avoid clashing with other things on the Earth Vein. What is this place? Could it be that deep in the earth, there was a world of its own? When he woke up from his stupor, Chen Fan looked around and saw that it was all grey. Although his eyesight was greatly affected, fortunately, he still had Spiritual Consciousness s to investigate, even though the distance was only a few dozen meters. In his dazed state, he even thought that he had arrived at the Primal Chaos Zone and could still hear the sound of flowing earth in the distance. It was obvious that the two of them had been rushed here ¡­ Deer God, where did I stand? Chen Fan asked. The more he came to this kind of mysterious place, the more regretful he was that before he fell asleep, he didn''t properly walk across the entire continent. Although he was clear that the latter would not pose any threat to him, this feeling of being on the defensive at all times made Chen Fan feel very uncomfortable. I''ve already said this before, these matters on the surface are not my responsibility. You brat, first take a good look at your surroundings before anything else. Deer God was speechless. He had to at least investigate the situation carefully before making a decision. Chen Fan called Nangong Xuan up. Observing the both of them, this Holy Maiden at least had some insights into the secrets of the Cultivation Realm. With curiosity and surprise, they slowly walked forward. They discovered that there were still many ruins on both sides. They seemed to have been there for a long time, and no one knew who built it. This should not be a ruin left behind by the Ancient Saint, right? Looking at this architectural style, it should be at least five thousand years old, and there should still be experts of that level. Nangong Xuan said to herself. She had once heard her grandfather say that in certain parts of the North Domain, there were many Dao-inheritances of powerful Warriors. It was just that they were very secretive and needed to be dug out. From this point of view, their current position could be said to be deep enough. Who would come to the Earth Vein just to search for the remnants of the Ancient Saint? Hmm, if I look inside, there might be other clues. Chen Fan also had the same guess, but just like when he was exposed to the Three Holy Arts, he tried his best to think back. Which Ancient Saint would be so bored that they have nothing to do ¡­ Just judging from the work done by these buildings, it was definitely not the work of an ordinary Cultivator. In other words, someone had once built luxurious palaces next to the Feng Shui lines with tremendous force. If it was the gongs and drums of its own accord, then it would certainly be a unique sight to see once the ruins were completely restored to their original state and enveloped by a brilliant light. As the two went deeper, the walls on both sides began to show some lines. After so many years of being buried, they were still emitting a faint light, not very bright. Nangong Xuan curiously moved closer to check. There should be records of the history of this place in those books, but it was a pity that she did not have a single impression of them, or even some that she could not understand. A layer of light formed on the surface, enveloping the incomplete body. At such a level of destruction, it was actually impossible to defend. The number of buildings in the surrounding area was increasing, and the area they took up was also expanding. It could easily reach up to a distance of several dozen feet, and it was truly a magnificent sight, comparable to the imperial palaces in the outside world. Even though it had been sealed underground for thousands of years, it could still be seen from the wreckage and ruins that this place was once grand and majestic. There had to be a supreme expert guarding it. Finally, the two of them arrived at the front of a large hall. This was the end of this place, and from the outside, it seemed to be around a thousand feet high. As they stood at the entrance of the temple, they couldn''t help but feel a sense of insignificance in their hearts. It was as if they couldn''t help but want to prostrate themselves in worship as they floated up and down in the depths of the earth. It was entirely out of instinct. When he met a huge fellow whose body was a hundred or even a thousand times bigger than his own, he would naturally show this feeling. Oh my god, our luck is too good. We actually ran into such a ruin on the way back. Nangong Xuan was a little excited, but she still maintained her basic vigilance. She carefully checked around the entrance of the hall to see if there were any hidden traps or something like that. Usually, this so-called land of destiny would contain the same kind of crisis as hers. If she wasn''t careful for a bit, she would fall into a dangerous situation. She did have this kind of awareness. Let''s go, the Ancient Saints is disdainful of leaving any eyes on people like us. After looking around, Chen Fan said. He then pushed open the door and casually walked in. Compared to the good fortune that Nangong Xuan was concerned about, he was more curious as to which one of them managed to create such a majestic palace, and why it was in such a dilapidated state. Hey, Chen Fan, wait for me! Nangong Xuan followed closely behind. C121 Originally, the former had absolute confidence, but after just entering, this mysterious hall had already given them a show of strength. There were more than a dozen corpses lying in front of him. Their faces were all green and purple as they laid on the ground in a disorderly fashion. They had long since lost their lives. In the empty hall, the surroundings were extremely dark, even a word or two could echo for a while, his vision and the Spiritual Consciousness were suppressed to the extreme, looking at these things now, the scene couldn''t help but be a little scary. This seemed to be a cultivator from three thousand years ago, but to be more specific, it was impossible to determine. Chen Fan carefully moved closer. Anything that happened within ten thousand years, he was still approximately in a stupefied state, so it was only natural that Deer God would be able to roughly discern them from the corpses'' clothing. In other words, there were other people who came here before us, but all of them died in the main hall. Nangong Xuan thought back carefully, but she was still too young, how could she possibly care so much about what happened a few thousand years ago. In fact, they had obviously come in large batches. In fact, there might even have been rumors circulating about this hall from the Cultivation Realm. If they had barged in just like Chen Fan and Yue Shuang, it would be impossible for them to be this coincidental, a whole dozen of people meeting here, they would definitely have come prepared. The more obvious proof was that these corpses'' faces had definitely been corroded by some sort of poison. The two of them raised their vigilance to the maximum, worried that they would be attacked as well. What should I do? Should I continue walking forward? With regards to the lives of the two, Chen Fan asked for Nangong Xuan''s opinion. Can your magical equipment take us out? Until now, Nangong Xuan did not know that it was the Dao Burning Furnace that saved her life, but before she woke up, Chen Fan had already taken over the Storage Bag. No. It was just two simple words, direct and direct. If there really was a way, Chen Fan would not have allowed the two of them to live in this kind of place. Nangong Xuan:... What else was there to say? There was no other way out and they could only continue forward. There might even be a chance of survival. After all, neither of them could compare to those ancient corpses in the earth vein. Through the extremely blurry perception of the Spiritual Consciousness, the space reported to Chen Fan in this great hall in his mind was considerably huge, at least in the tens of thousands of meters around him. After thinking about it again and again, Chen Fan still took out the Dao Burning Furnace, and a large amount of Spiritual Light dropped down. Originally, he had not planned to reveal this Heavy Treasure too much in front of Nangong Xuan. Be careful, don''t leave the protection area of the Dao Burning Furnace. The main hall, which had not been opened for thousands of years, did not have any movement in the air. The main hall, which had not been opened for thousands of years, did not have any movement in the air. Just then, a grey mist suddenly appeared around him. No one could see where it came from, but Chen Fan''s words had made it so. Rip! Indeed, the mist had an extremely corrosive effect on the body. From the ear-piercing noise that they made after coming into contact with the Furnace Body, it was even more overbearing than the attacks of the Protector Sun. Get out of here, it''s too dangerous. Nangong Xuan urged. Before she walked far, the mist became denser, and the surroundings were filled with a strange aura. Chen Fan also stopped, with surprise in his eyes. It seems that this palace still holds a deep attachment to us. After thousands of years, no living beings have entered here, and with great difficulty, we finally have someone to accompany us. How can we so easily let them go? That aura did not appear because of their fear. Rather, it was a mysterious existence that was attacking their minds and releasing a sorrowful emotion. This method was quite brilliant. It could unwittingly cause someone to sink into depression without the slightest detection, and even when facing danger, it would be very negative. Immediately after, the mist started to swirl crazily, and a black shadow seemed to appear in the dark. Chen Fan and Nangong Xuan took out Seal s from their hands and tried to lock onto that guy''s movements as much as possible. Bang! Chen Fan''s eyes flashed with a bright light. He was the first to predict the trajectory of the shadow, and the Three Saint Force was first to be released, directly piercing out a crack in the gray fog, revealing the opponent''s body. Who in the world was that person? What did it matter to him to hide there sneakily! With a loud shout, the sound wave attack was indiscernible. In addition to the light on the surface of the Furnace Body, the surroundings became much brighter. It was only then that they could see this guy''s face clearly. It was a strange Demonic Beast, about the same size as an adult Tibetan Mastiff, with rows and rows of sharp fangs. It had two horns on its head, making it look terrifying. Facing Chen Fan''s attack, this fellow did not have the slightest intention to retreat. Instead, he used two large horns to block it, causing a burst of friction. Chen Fan urged his Furnace Body to move forward to suppress it, using a fighting method that was quick. There was no telling what dangers were hidden in the hall, he could not get entangled with this guy too much. The thick and heavy Furnace Body was like a small mountain, quickly expanding to about a dozen or so meters wide, revealing that every thread of light could weigh a thousand pounds, clearing out the surrounding area of gray fog. However, they were still restrained by the Three Saint Force. The heart of these ants had been crushed, and even their bodies were weakened. In the short span of a few breaths, he couldn''t even act arrogantly in front of him. Only after rolling a few times did he manage to catch his breath. In Chen Fan''s opinion, the thing that this fellow was truly terrifying about, being able to plant a seed of suicide in a person''s heart, and then act after brewing for a while, was simply twice the result with half the effort. The prey he was staring at no longer had any thoughts of resisting. With his entire body''s combat power, under the influence of such a strange atmosphere in the hall, perhaps he was still thinking about how to end his own life. If it was anyone else, such as those few people lying at the entrance, there was a high chance that they would be hit. This kind of psychological attack did not come from their cultivation level ¨C Ancient Saint would definitely be excluded. Given enough time, if Hu Mu grew up to here with Nascent Infant Stage, he definitely wouldn''t be able to escape death by simply being killed by his own Dao-heart! Normally, a popinjay like him wouldn''t suffer any setbacks. His greenhouse flower would be easily destroyed, and even the slightest fluctuation of emotions would cause him to be unable to control himself. Furthermore, both Chen Fan and Nangong Xuan had extraordinary statuses, so there was no need for him to explain too much as a Zhi Zun in a predicament. After experiencing ten thousand years of grinding with his dao heart, he was still unable to destroy them even if he wanted to. As a Holy Maiden of the Hua Ding Sect, the latter endured twenty odd years of mockery. It was far more tenacious than its peers. Scram! I know what this place is! When the fierce beast landed in front of him, Nangong Xuan suddenly screamed. The Seal in her hands did not hesitate to throw it out, giving that fellow a final fatal strike. C122 The surging Spiritual Energy s seethed, and coupled with the effects that Chen Fan emitted, they surrounded his entire body. He wanted to use the gray fog to deal with the former, and use it to corrode and weaken her in all aspects. This thing was known as the Heavenly Heart Beast, and it was most adept at bewitching people''s hearts. By secretly laying down that mysterious Qi, it could affect other living beings, and was even regarded as a spirit pet by the Cultivation Realm. It was precisely because he noticed the abnormality earlier that made Nangong Xuan suddenly recall that there were no such Demonic Beast anywhere. It could be said to be a specialty of this hall. An item from the Heavenly Dao? Chen Fan was secretly speechless, and subconsciously took out a Spiritual Consciousness and inquired about the situation of the Deer God. If what Nangong Xuan said was true, then this was not a family. It was just a coincidence that they did not enter the same house. Heavenly Heart Beast... I''ve never heard of this thing... Could it be that this little girl was so scared that she was spouting nonsense? Deer God was completely confused. Even the Omnipotent Heavenly Dao Inheritor had been questioned about it, making him lose face, and he had no memory of anything related to it. What else do you know? Chen Fan looked at Nangong Xuan. Regarding the major events that happened after he fell asleep, Holy Maiden was undoubtedly very familiar with them. After the great battle concerning the Heavenly Dao five thousand years ago, it was rumored that a supreme expert had intercepted the Heavenly Dao Fragment, and some said that it had been broken by the aftermath of the battle. Nangong Xuan paused for a moment, as she calmed the shock in her heart. She never would have thought that she would fall into a place like this one day. Furthermore, that piece of Heavenly Dao Fragment had fallen somewhere within the North Domain. Over the years, countless people had searched for it, but still could not find anything. This was not too surprising as the highest goal of a cultivator was only the word ''immortal''. The mysterious Heavenly Dao already represented the highest realm of this world. The lightning tribulation that had just arrived not long ago was the best form of verification. As the Dominator of all living things, the Heavenly Dao was always high and mighty, looking down on all living beings and possessing the power to control everything at the same time. Ever since the creation of the world, the Heavenly Dao had always existed. It had never died, and its vitality was limitless as well. As the representative of longevity, coupled with the power to destroy the world, it was a fatal temptation to any cultivator. Now that the Heavenly Dao Fragment had appeared, it was no less shocked than an immortal who had accidentally fallen into the mortal world. If one could control it within their hands, it was even possible for them to comprehend the law of longevity. The declining Cultivation Realm had long since lost its existence as a Ancient Saint, let alone trying to resist the majesty of the heavens. It was obvious that this section of Heavenly Dao Fragment was the world''s greatest fortune. What does it have to do with this hall? The Heavenly Dao Fragment would never build itself a place to cultivate. Chen Fan''s head was still filled with fog, and did not realize that Nangong Xuan, as well as the entire Cultivation Realm in her mouth, was madly throbbing. He really wasn''t putting on airs on purpose. With such a nagging Heaven''s Path incarnation by his side, wouldn''t he just screw himself over? Where would he care about the fragments? I''m not too sure about this, but ever since the news of the Heavenly Dao Fragment s came out, this palace seemed to have appeared out of nowhere. There were even some Ancient Saints s who had joined hands to deduce that the fragment was right here. After all, her cultivation and age had yet to reach the level of a real Holy Maiden. Nangong Xuan''s knowledge was limited, and this was what Nangong Yi had unintentionally told her. Deer God, looks like I found your own brothers. Chen Fan said while laughing, secretly informing the old fellow that the latter was also carefully recalling the events of the battle. That''s not right, it should be only this old man who was dragged out. How could there be other fragments? Deer God was puzzled. It was something that had been separated from the heavens and had never thought that there would be another kind of existence like it. The key point was that he didn''t have any impression of them, and he didn''t sense any aura of the fragments within this hall. Let''s go, let''s go. It looks like we are destined for a great opportunity today. Chen Fan no longer bothered with him. The old fellow had always claimed that he was omniscient, and this time, he was the one who fell down. How about... Let''s go back ¡­ However, Nangong Xuan was a little hesitant, and after hesitating for a moment, she opened her mouth and advised. At the same time, the memories that surfaced in her mind not only contained a fanaticism for Heavenly Dao Fragment, but also a bloodshed and misery, stopping her in her tracks. Why, that was the most precious good fortune that had ever existed since the ancient times. It might very well be right in the depths of the great hall, and the chance to raise Hua Ding Sect might very soon come. Although Chen Fan said this in a slightly overbearing manner, compared to the declining Cultivation Realm, Road Locked Hall was still ranked at the top. Most chances were inherited by a certain Ranker, or by a lot of Spiritual Being sealed inside the grave, but no one had ever buried a Heavenly Dao Fragment with them. No matter how high the grade of the spirit medicine and artifacts were, in the end, they did not exceed the human resource limit. They could still be refined and grew. Road Locked Hall was only known as a great hall, but in actuality, the interior was a space that spanned for several tens of kilometers, and there was even the possibility of it forming its own realm. At the same time, it also meant the risk of losing his life. Previously, when Nangong Yi recalled his Road Locked Hall, he was a little fearful of them. Historically, many Senior Expert had entered to investigate. Those were all famous names, but the number of survivors were few. Moreover, none of them had obtained any Heavenly Dao Fragment. Heh, if they really can get their hands on it, then today''s Cultivation Realm wouldn''t be a situation where so many transcendent powers are standing side by side. Chen Fan curled his lips. Although he had some complaints about Deer God''s character, the latter''s utility was undeniable, especially when used by those famous sects. Without exaggerating in the slightest, as long as one was able to comprehend a bit of the so-called wisdom from the Heavenly Dao Fragment, it would be able to cause the realms of many of the older generation, who had been stuck for a long time, to weaken, to the point of even making a breakthrough due to this opportunity. At the same time, young experts would also be able to obtain an incomparably solid Tao root, and one or two wouldn''t be much. If all of these changes were to occur within the limits of the Sect, it would be enough to raise one''s overall strength by a large amount in a short period of time, and even double that. In front of the Sect of Heavenly Dao Fragment, it was the acknowledgement of the heavens. Not to mention some transcendent powers, even Yuan Sect was probably not a match for them, and they were only willing to admit defeat. We''ll drift around the terrain for a while, maybe find some other outflow, and get ready for a month or two. If there were only a few Celestial Heart Beasts, Nangong Xuan would not mind, but there were definitely other dangers hiding in the hall, the two of them were simply too weak. The fact that so many talented senior experts were unable to leave was sufficient to show just how terrifying the Road Locked Hall was. If they went any deeper, they would most likely die without a doubt. This method is not impossible, but it''s a pity that my family''s treasure can''t hold on much longer. Chen Fan shook his head, indicating that the Dao Burning Furnace was injured. After that Celestial Heart Beast''s attack just now, the patterns on its surface had indeed dimmed quite a bit. Naturally, Nangong Xuan also saw it with her eyes, and the worry between her brows increased. Don''t worry, with your name as a Holy Maiden, your luck is deep, there won''t be any problems. Chen Fan still wanted to see what it was like. He intentionally duped Nangong Xuan a bit, mainly because he didn''t have much confidence in the flow of the Earth and was usually sealed off. They had coincidentally met with Road Locked Hall this time, so they didn''t know how long it would take until the next uprising of the Feng Shui lines, or even tens or even hundreds of years later. According to his thoughts, he would rather die in the Road Locked Hall than die in the depths of the earth vein for nothing. Alas, I should have left a suicide note for my grandfather. Nangong Xuan faintly sighed, and said half jokingly and half helplessly. If you were to speak of injustice, she was the one who was wronged the most. He had only inadvertently seen Master Feng''s abnormal actions and followed him all the way out of Yuan Sect. He had been mysteriously chased for such a long time, and now he might even lose his life. It was better to be at ease while the Hua Ding Sect treated her as its own Holy Maiden. He would be carefree even if the sky were to fall and Nangong Yi would be able to bear the brunt of it, let alone having any connections with the Heavenly Dao Fragment. The two continued to walk forward, but because of the hazy surroundings, the fog quickly lost its sense of direction. It was completely aimless, to the point where they couldn''t even sense how far they had walked. Now, Chen Fan finally started to believe the rumors regarding the Road Locked Hall. This place was definitely filled with mysterious spatial laws, and they were extremely profound as well. He even suspected that the Senior Expert s who came in earlier were all trapped inside the palace hall, which was much more terrifying than some desert wilderness. Not only was there no difference between East, South, West, and North, there was also an even thicker gray fog. If it wasn''t for the Dao Burning Furnace''s protection, their Spiritual Consciousness might have been completely corroded. Ah! Just when Chen Fan wanted to stop and rest for a while, Nangong Xuan suddenly shouted in shock. She felt that there was something strange in her body, but in the end, she found out that it was actually the skeleton of her Human Clan. It didn''t matter, the guy was dead. Chen Fan comforted her. Although Nangong Xuan had acted so arrogantly during the battle, she had still revealed the side of a little woman at this moment. He walked over and saw that the man was in a very strange position. His legs were curled up on his side and his head was slightly tilted upwards. It was obvious that he had suffered a lot before he died. It was worth mentioning that there was a faint layer of fluorescence on the surface of the skeleton. However, it was not easy to see under the cover of the fog. It seemed that this fellow was also an expert. Otherwise, if he had enjoyed the corrosion of the gray fog for so long, the corpses of ordinary people would have disappeared long ago. Chen Fan said. This was similar to those people he had seen in the vein of the earth, it was just that their encounters were different. C123 Heavenly Dao Fragment ¡­ Trap the world ¡­ Nangong Xuan softly read out the words on the corpse''s wrist. What did this mean? Did he discover the truth? Perhaps it was just a warning to those who arrived later not to get too close to the temple. It was very possible that he had fallen here. Both of them were dumbfounded, so they could not act rashly. It could only be attributed to this person''s resentment before his death. After all, no matter who it was, who had astounding combat power, joyfully came forth to search for the Heavenly Dao Fragment, only to end up like this. Seeing such an effect, both Chen Fan and Nangong Xuan were a little worried. Right now, they were truly on a pirate ship, and even if they wanted to go down, they couldn''t. They tried all kinds of methods and methods, but none of them worked. The surroundings were covered in a hazy mist, and there wasn''t even a single thing that could determine their direction. After walking for such a long time and not seeing anything, we shouldn''t be walking in circles, right? Nangong Xuan suddenly thought. Judging by the distance of their feet, they must have walked at least fifty or sixty miles in such a long time. Even if they were to create their own world, there should still be an end to it. It shouldn''t be. It could only be said that this hall was more spacious than one could imagine. If he really was moving in circles, he would probably bump into the corpse again. At the same time that he persuaded Nangong Xuan, Chen Fan also became anxious, he no longer had his original Zhi Zun strength, in this place, his safety rate was not as high as the former. However, it seemed like the mysterious Heavenly Dao Fragment was joking with him. Not long after he finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared on the ground ¡ª ¡ª Of course, it was also a lifeless corpse. Nangong Xuan:... Could it be such a coincidence? Chen Fan quickly walked over. If the only reference object was this corpse after all this time, then they really did not have any hope of leaving this place alive. When Chen Fan clearly saw the appearance of the fellow in front of him, he finally heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. This was not the expert from before, which meant that they had discovered something new. Qiu Qianming ¡­ There were no other last words written around the palm of the corpse, it only recorded a name, which caused Nangong Xuan''s expression to instantly change. This seems to be the senior of my Hua Ding Sect who went missing two thousand years ago when he went out to gain power. There still hasn''t been any news of him until now, so he had entered the Road Locked Hall. After hearing the three words Qiu Qianming, Chen Fan seemed to have some impression of him in his mind. This person was rather famous, and the strong person who had appeared all these years after Qing Xuan Sect inspection was his name. To be able to remember it in the ancient history, naturally, he could also be considered a peerless genius. Ever since he was young, he was considered a direct disciple of the Hua Ding Sect Sect Leader. In just a few short decades of time, he rose strongly and reached a level no weaker than an Sect elder. Furthermore, he broke through the Extreme Realm on the one hundred year old birthday and attracted the experts from over a hundred sects to come watch the ceremony. He directly advanced to the level of a Dao Protector, and became even higher than the Sect Leader at that time. After that, Qiu Qianming led the Hua Ding Sect to go against it, sanctioning the entire area within the North Domain, which dealt a heavy blow to the Yuan Sect of the First Sect which had not yet stabilized. There were even some people who speculated that if he had not disappeared for no reason at all back then, there was a high possibility that his Yuan Sect would have been completely suppressed and replacing it was Hua Ding Sect holding an ox ear. Such a battle achievement was enough to be remembered by his descendants. So far in the Hua Ding Sect, among the memorial tablets, Qiu Qianming had been placed next to the third generation ancestor, and his position was extremely revered. Heh, not bad, then you should kowtow properly, maybe you can get some luck. Chen Fan declined to comment. No matter how glorious his history was, he was still just a skeleton now. He was very disgusted by the word ''senior''. Don''t leave these corpses in the hall for at least thousands of years, they would take even longer to shake the world. However, compared to Chen Fan, they were nothing more than passing clouds. He had long since descended from the peak, and even if Ancient Saint''s corpse appeared, he would at most be on equal footing as. Help me gather Senior Qiu into the Storage Bag, be careful. With reverence in her heart, Nangong Xuan wanted to put away this bone. If sshe really was able to walk out of the Road Locked Hall, he would be able to bury this Senior Expert in peace in the future and truly accept the worship of the future generations of disciples. However, before the two of them could use any strength, the corpse turned into dust just as they were about to be crushed. It was too late to stop the two of them. It seems like this Qiu ¡­ Senior''s strength is not as good as that fella outside. Chen Fan laughed, he did not expect such a result. It should have accumulated over thousands of years and formed a balance between the skeleton and the gray fog. If it was touched by any external force, it would naturally disintegrate. Ai, Senior Qiu lost his life here, and has been going on for thousands of years. I''m afraid that this is also his fate. Nangong Xuan sighed, and did not continue asking. It was more out of the respect she had for the Sect seniors of the younger generation. There seemed to be no one in the Hua Ding Sect who had seen Qiu Qianqian before, so there was no need for her to be overly sad. Chen Fan intentionally lowered the glow emitted by the Dao Burning Furnace a bit, and the two of them started walking faster. Since they were sure that they were not circling around where they were, it meant that there were still other things ahead of them. Sure enough, after walking for over ten miles, they came across the third corpse. However, this person''s situation was a lot worse, and their faces could not even be seen clearly. Even though the surface of the skeleton was also glowing with light, and there were even some mysterious veined patterns on it, which had not worn off for thousands of years, the right side of the skeleton''s body had already been smashed to smithereens. It was obvious that this Senior Expert was not affected by the gray fog, but instead suffered a heavy injury while he was still alive. The uneven bones were extremely obvious, and could even have been broken. His jaw bone extended all the way down to his throat, making it impossible to see his entire head. This caused Chen Fan to suspect whether he had shattered it with a single stomp, deepening his worry. This is the blood brother of the Sect Leader from three thousand years ago! Nangong Xuan said, staring at the corpse in front of him, her heart raging. How can you recognize someone who is already in such a rotten state? Chen Fan asked curiously, if not for the former''s serious look, he would have thought that the former was spouting nonsense. The body had completely decayed, and half of the bones had been shattered, not to mention that there were still Spiritual Consciousness remaining. In this kind of condition, even a genius doctor would not be able to restore his original appearance. What made Chen Fan most uneasy was that even rankers that were not weaker than the s had been treated in such a way, so what kind of danger would the two of them face if they were to die such a cruel death? I heard that the Sect Leader is a descendant of the Yan Ming Ancient Saint. Their family cultivates special Sage Realm techniques, so even after passing away, the patterns on their bones will not change. C124 Nangong Xuan pointed to the lines that appeared under the light. It was hard for her to see them clearly, they were already blurry to the point that she could not see clearly. But this was the power of the Ancient Saints. When one reached that realm, they could change their own bloodline and even spread it to the later generations for thousands of years. As long as one possessed his direct bloodline, one would be branded with the Ancient Saint from birth until death. It was the same for the Yuan Sect Sect Leader back then. Wu, ah, Ancient Saint Yan Ming, I seem to have read about him somewhere before ¡­ Chen Fan finally heard the familiar name from Nangong Xuan''s mouth and he came into contact with this Ancient Saint a few times. Tch, if you haven''t even heard of Ancient Saint Yan Ming, then you are too ignorant and ill-informed. On the other hand, Nangong Xuan had neglected to reveal herself. With Nangong Yi''s personal recognition, she was the legitimate descendant of the Ancient Saint. What a pity, I remember that the ancient records said that this person had prepared to take over the position of my brother, the Sect Leader, and had mysteriously disappeared in the end. There''s nothing to be regretful about, the more powerful experts in the Yuan Sect are dead and injured, the better it is for us. Chen Fan said with a smile. After being hunted for such a long time, in his heart, he had already thoroughly darkened this Sect. In the process of him regaining his strength, Yuan Sect was bound to be a huge obstacle. Although he could only be forced to flee for his life now, he would definitely teach them a ruthless lesson in the future. Now that he thought about it, the existence of Road Locked Hall was actually quite useful. Hua Ding Sect and Yuan Sect were both things that top experts risked their lives and then fell down in succession after falling a dozen or so kilometers away. With this reversal, the balance of power between the two great Sect s did not change too much. They were still firmly set as the number one great sect, and their Hua Ding Sect s could only be ranked second in ten thousand years. What familiar impression do you have now? If you keep walking forward, you''ll really meet your old family. With greater caution and vigilance, the Furnace Body scattered in all directions. Chen Fang was also secretly communicating with the Deer God, as he could not think of anything related to Road Locked Hall. You''ve been sleeping under the ground for so many years, you know better than I do. Deer God was furious, maybe the memories regarding the Heavenly Dao Fragment were erased because he was avoiding suspicion. Then if the two of you start fighting, who should I help? Chen Fan laughed. Just thinking about it was exciting. When the two Heavenly Dao Fragment fought, they both carried the laws of heaven and earth. This was equivalent to a collision between two worlds, and the level of the competition was definitely not lower than the great battle back then. The Heavenly Dao does not have the term age. What state did he have when he landed at the time, is now the same as before. You still hoped that Cao Rui would act a little more ruthlessly back then. Deer God replied indifferently, he did not have the mood to bother Chen Fan anymore, he was already troubled enough. Cao Rui and the others were all Cultivator, and stood at the peak of millions of lives, but the enemy they faced directly surpassed the level of life. If a conflict really broke out within the Road Locked Hall, then that would be a battle between the heavens. Hehe, as a master, you must trust your disciple. Since Little Cao was able to seal you for so long, the other Heavenly Dao Fragment should not be any better either. Chen Fan could only rely on his joke with the Deer God to distract some of his attention. Along the way, they met more than a dozen skeletons. Some of them were unrecognizable, and some of them could even identify themselves. They were both famous masters at that time. At the very least, he was still at the peak of the Nascent Infant, which meant that he was probably at the same realm as Qian De, with the strongest among them using their full strength, perhaps even Nangong Yi would not be able to match up. Not only did it involve the seven great transcendent powers, many of them came from the clans and sects of the past. However, they were all annihilated in the flow of history. Countless forces of cultivation had appeared in this region, strong or weak. Unfortunately, the world was destroyed, and the inheritance vanished. It was just an ordinary barrier in the cycle of reincarnation. Until now, there was only an empty title, stuck on the yellowed ancient book. The words were ice-cold, and the skeleton buried in the Road Locked Hall was used as the symbol of final glory. Over time, Chen Fan and Luo Hua City Mistress had become a little numb. After every stretch of the journey, they would find corpses strewn all over the ground. At most, there would only be one or two that appeared occasionally. Perhaps it was because of the passage of time, but most of them were at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage and could not pose much of a threat. With just a few casual waves of his palm, the Spiritual Energy burst forth. The battle did not even have a thrilling process, it was completely over. This confirmed Chen Fan''s guess. In the depths of the Main Palace, if there really were falling Heavenly Dao Fragment s, they should have been sealed by Cao Rui. Those Heavenly Heart Beasts were able to use bewitching methods because of the release of the Heavenly Dao Fragment''s aura. If the Heavenly Dao Fragment''s aura weakened, they would also be greatly affected. As for those experts that died earlier, there was still no explanation. Since they were able to reach the Nascent Infant Stage, and even a higher level, the Heavenly Heart Beast shouldn''t be enough to take their lives. This was not a Road Locked Hall, this was clearly the mass tomb of these seniors. A tinge of regret flashed through his heart, and was immediately suppressed by Chen Fan. Although he could not use the sun to judge how much time had passed, he could roughly estimate that they had been traveling nonstop for a day and a night. They might even need a few more hours. Only the two of them had a profound cultivation base. If an ordinary person were to come to this place, they would probably starve to death if they didn''t tire themselves to death from the long journey. The crux of the issue was that they had yet to discover anything new. With so many corpses of powerful experts, how could they be of any help? It only increased their worries. The temptation of the Heavenly Dao Fragment is too big, if I also had their astounding strength, maybe I would also want to come in and investigate. Nangong Xuan said faintly. Hearing that, Chen Fan shook his head, he still could not understand why these people had such a crazy obsession with Heavenly Dao Fragment. He would only end up risking his life. He would be considered as a top Ranker of all the big sects, but none of them could be compared with Ancient Saint. One had to know that in the great battle of the Heavenly Dao several thousand years ago, the qualifications to participate were at least at the Ancient Saint Realm. As for those who had truly intercepted the Heavenly Dao, they had reached an unimaginably high level. However, after the rumors spread to the later generations, there was a group of Nascent Infant monsters who wishily took such great risks to penetrate deep into the Earth Veins and actually ruined hundreds of years of cultivation. Suddenly, the ground started to shake strangely, a wave of immense pressure was coming over from afar, both Chen Fan and Nangong Xuan revealed a vigilant look, maybe the Heavenly Heart Beast was causing trouble again. C125 However, the two of them soon noticed that something was not right. As the pressure spread, they did not see any trace of the beast''s body. Instead, a strange energy appeared in the gray fog. To them, this mysterious state was something that was difficult to describe. It was as if a god was teaching them, but they themselves could not understand it at all. They could only vaguely sense it. Numerous Talisman appeared in the air, densely packed and dense to the point that it seemed like there were thousands of them. As they floated in front of him, they emanated an endless temptation and attraction. In Nangong Xuan''s eyes, this was the dao and logic that came from the heavens. It interweaved horizontally, truly representing the will of the Heavenly Dao Fragment, and she could even touch it with her hand. So many of the senior experts couldn''t even pay with their lives for it, yet it was clearly displayed right now. The excitement in Nangong Xuan''s heart could be imagined, as she wanted to take everything into her own hands. Was this the truth of the Heavenly Dao? It really was incredibly mysterious ¡­ Nangong Xuan muttered softly, her hands still slowly groping about. Of course, in her world, every single Talisman represented a supreme secret, and all of them had to be kept away, waiting for her to return to the Hua Ding Sect in the future to study more. What appeared in Chen Fan''s eyes was a completely different scene. An endless amount of Spiritual Stone had piled up into a mountain, and his main body was wandering in the vast ocean of the Spiritual Energy''s aura. The concentration of Spiritual Energy in the air had almost completely turned into substance. Just a few big breaths could cause their cultivation to increase rapidly, and they were continuously entering their bodies through their pores. With the support of so many Spiritual Stone s, he would be able to survive from the memories of ten thousand years ago. Hahaha, you bastards of Yuan Sect, you just wait for me and I will find you and settle this debt immediately, none of you will be able to escape! Today, I am truly happy. It seems like the heavens are still very fair to me. When I ascend to become a supreme being again, I will surely ascend to this world once more. As expected, Chen Fan was also laughing loudly, the number of Spiritual Stone around him were increasing, just the pure energy alone was almost sufficient to drown him out. Dong! Dong! Dong! At the same time, the entire palace hall continued to shake even more violently. Rocks began to fall from the sky, forming a dense rain that surrounded them. Chen Fan and Mu Yurou were still indulging themselves in their fantasy, waving their arms around with a joyful expression on their faces, the corners of their mouths almost reaching the back of their heads, as though they had not noticed anything at all. A whole seven to eight minutes passed and they helplessly watched as the broken stone reached near their waists. Deer God''s figure appeared, and he seemed to be hesitating about something. The Dao Burning Furnace above started to shine, but it had no effect on the stones, its defense was completely ineffective, and the situation started to turn. Eh? That''s not right! Immersed in the sea of Spiritual Stone, Chen Fan suddenly regained his senses. How could I have fallen to such a state? It''s just a few Spiritual Stone, don''t even think about shaking my dao heart. In the past, when the Supreme Wu Tian s took the stars and took the moon, they would be revived in this life. Even if their forms were stronger than others, they wouldn''t be so excited to such an extent. Chen Fan''s subconscious was still reminding him, he absolutely could not throw away his last line as a Zhi Zun, even if it meant that he had to. Although it was just a thought, it was still enough for Chen Fan to see the real scene in front of him. The hall had collapsed, and what was piled up was not Spiritual Stone s, but rocks the size of basins. Wake up, we are almost buried alive, why are we still looking for Heavenly Dao Fragment?! Chen Fan hurriedly struggled to free himself, but luckily the broken stones had not solidified yet and could easily be broken free. He repeatedly called out to Nangong Xuan, who also came to her senses in a daze, with a clearly confused expression on her face. What''s wrong ¡­ "Ah! An ear-piercing scream resonated throughout the hall as Nangong Xuan jumped out of the barrier of shattered rocks and climbed up to her chest. If she continued up any further, she would unknowingly be trapped. In the end, she was still a Holy Maiden with a root of success, and she quickly calmed down. Thank you. It''s fine, it''s fine. You saved me quite a few times outside as well. Chen Fan waved his hand, and a layer of cold sweat appeared on his back. He never thought that the ''Supreme Wu Tian'' from ten thousand years ago would actually save him at the very last moment. It was only at this moment that the Road Locked Hall truly revealed its sinister side. What do we do now? Nangong Xuan had no idea. Strictly speaking, this was her first time going out to train. Although he did not have this intention when he left the Hua Ding Sect. No matter if it was the first time she was inexperienced or a twenty year old girl, it was already not easy for her to persevere to this point. At least, it was enough to cause Chen Fan to raise a thumb up. What else can we do? We can''t even find our way out, so let''s keep walking. There''s no turning back. Chen Fan replied helplessly. From the moment they had seen Qiu Qianming''s corpse, they had determined that there was no turning back. Thus, they had followed their instincts and walked in a straight line, step by step. He wasn''t in a hurry anyway, so he decided to rest first, in case there were any Heavenly Heart Beasts lurking in the shadows. After punishing Chen Fan with his butt, he had no choice but to leave. However, in order to recover his strength, how could Chen Fan''s Foundation Establishment stage be able to keep up with this half-step Core Condensating Ranker? That kind of scene was too weird, I actually thought that the Heavenly Dao Fragment was right in front of me. Nangong Xuan still had lingering fear as she turned her head to ask Chen Fan. Hai, it''s about the same. It''s just a mysterious dao aura, who would''ve thought that it would confuse both of us. Even if he was beaten to death he wouldn''t be able to admit what he was thinking. In the face of an illusion, such a vulgar bunch of Spiritual Stone had actually appeared. If he had a choice, Chen Chu would rather jump into the earth to wash up and cleanse his mind. Then I can react in time and save both of us. It looks like my dao heart isn''t firm enough. Nangong Xuan was not satisfied with her own performance. This was a strict requirement that she had always had as a Holy Maiden. If nothing unexpected happens, as long as we can smoothly walk out of this great hall, you will be able to break through to the true Core Formation Stage and a brand-new world will open its doors for you. This was truly not something that Chen Fan would care about. After so many days of intense attacks and assaults from all kinds of Spiritual Consciousness, it was definitely equivalent to several months of hard work cultivating within the Sect. This was the advantage of going out to train. Not only could it increase one''s strength the fastest, but it could also increase one''s combat awareness. Their cultivation base would become increasingly solid. As far as he could tell, life and death was still unknown. He could only hope that he wouldn''t go with the flow. In this aspect, being different from Chen Fan, Nan Gong Xuan was not too persistent about breaking through to the next realm. It was enough, she did not need to be like the former, to constantly have the heavy responsibility of raising Sect. Alas, I envy you for your indifference. Chen Fan was naturally clear of Nangong Xuan''s situation; this little girl''s condition was about to take off. After expelling all the resentment in his body, he smoothly broke through the Core Formation Stage. Within the entire transcendent powers, they had also heard of a young expert reaching this level. In addition to his title of Hua Ding Sect Holy Maiden, he was definitely one of the female cultivators who received the most attention in the entire area. These were all built on the premise that the two of them could escape. If they were unlucky enough to die, then everything would be useless. That''s right, didn''t you say that someone managed to leave the Road Locked Hall alive? How did they do it? Right at this moment, without waiting for Nangong Xuan''s reply, a blinding light once again appeared in the distant hazy gray fog. A very fuzzy pair of gates appeared, and without any explanation, they were sucked into them without any room for resistance. This godly aura came very suddenly, and the mixed power was even more shocking. Chen Fan only felt as if his entire body was being flipped over, as he quickly rolled forward. It was impossible to tell what was in front of him, or what kind of tunnel it was. The sky was spinning and the earth was spinning. It took about half a quarter of an hour for it to stop. Even someone as strong as Chen Fan couldn''t resist the urge to puke. His internal organs felt like they were going to fall apart. That''s how they got out. Nangong Xuan revealed a bitter smile and spread open her arms. She also had a messy look on her face. According to the memories of the few senior experts who had luckily escaped, they had encountered the mysterious teleportation of Domain Gate. It seemed that they had truly delved into the interior of the Road Locked Hall. What was the specific process? Chen Fan asked quickly, as if he did not say anything. I''m not too sure about this either. Those few seniors were secretive about it and refused to mention it too much. They only mentioned the existence of Domain Gate and then did not disclose everything that they had experienced. Even so, Nangong Xuan still raised his confidence. At least they did not die in Road Locked Hall, this was a good sign. Chen Fan: "... Are those old fellows being molested or something? They were acting so secretively and it was to their great suspense. There''s no such thing as gray fog. Let''s find out if there''s any way out. Nangong Xuan suddenly had the desire to live. The previous extreme environment had only been fear and panic. It seemed that one had either put their person into eternal despair, or had fallen into eternal despair. The more this gave rise to a sense of hope, the more dangerous the situation would be in the surroundings, and the more tormenting it would be. If Nangong Xuan searched, and didn''t find anything, she might not know how depressed she would be. Do your best, and listen to the will of heaven. Chen Fan''s voice spread very far and slowly. Being trapped in this kind of damned place, he really did listen to the attitude of the so-called Heavenly Dao Fragment. Looking again, he realized that the place they were standing was actually surrounded by several walls. The only difference was that the area it covered was rather large. It was estimated that it was surrounded by a radius of three thousand meters. C126 Just where have we come to? This seems to be an eight trigram diagram. Upon closer inspection, the walls were all erected at different locations, and there were many engravings on them that gave them an appearance of profound mystery. He couldn''t help but fall into the depths of his memories. Back when he was a Supreme Wu Tian, he had once been obsessed with the Eight Trigrams Diagram and spent a great deal of time and effort to understand it. It was clearly just a few simple patterns, but no matter what material was used as a carrier, it was still able to produce a unique power. At that time, there was even a Ancient Saint who was proficient in this dao that set up a great formation and fought with five experts of the same level at the same time. It was not an exaggeration to say that with the support of the eight trigram diagram, his overall strength would increase several times over. Only if he could understand its true meaning could he use this mysterious power. By the same logic, since his cultivation had improved so much, if he were to turn it into a killing formation now, its power would be much greater. This was not a simple Eight Trigrams Diagram. The lines on the wall had no relation to the power of the Eight Trigrams. It only required the correct direction. Deer God saw through some of them and was still thinking about them carefully. Could it be that the secret behind the fragment was hidden within these walls? Chen Fan''s eyes flickered with a brilliant light as countless thoughts flashed through his mind. However, he still felt that something was off, as it made him unable to link his guesses together. The patterns on it were related to the five elements, and each wall had a complete Five Elements formation engraved upon it. Nangong Xuan looked at it for a long time, then suddenly remembered that she had seen something similar in the Hua Ding Sect. It was obvious that they were only in the middle stages of the Aurous Core stage, but after the five of them displayed this formation diagram together, not even the elders who had just entered the Nascent Infant were a match for them. Yes, it''s the Five Elements Array. Why do I feel that it looks so familiar? Deer God suddenly realized that the overly complicated memories had a biggest weakness, and that it still needed a lot of time to come up with. In a flash, both he and Chen Fan fell into a state of astonishment. Nangong Xuan was clueless as to how terrifying of a truth she had discovered. Adding the power of the five elements to the Eight Trigram Diagram ¡­ This is probably the work of the heavens ¡­ Chen Fan was greatly shocked in his heart. Previously, even when he was at his peak, he did not dare to act so rashly. One had to know that these were the two most extreme things in the world. Rumor had it that they were born along with the Heavenly Dao. Regardless of whether it was the five elements or the eight trigrams, they all belonged to the Upper Sky Realm. In addition, it had truly become visible to the public. Even ordinary mortals could easily sense the existence of the five types of energy, metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. The gossips had already delved deep into the theory of yin and yang. The so-called fortune-tellers and the martial practitioners of the martial arts world had all taken him as their root. This kind of thing could be seen everywhere, and amongst the stronger experts in the Cultivation Realm, they would also have a lot of research on the five elements. However, the mysteriousness of this sort of thing was not something that a human could understand and understand. Even if one only learned a little bit of it, it was enough to become a master of this world. Was it difficult to combine these two powers? It should give a huge boost to one''s cultivation. Nangong Xuan could only foolishly tell that the Formation Pattern that she could not understand probably had a unique might. It was just like smelting a volcano with a vast ocean. The amount of energy required to do so would increase by several times, which was more or less what it meant. After thinking about it, Chen Fan made an unsuitable analogy. So it was like that. There seemed to be two Supreme Elders who had also tried it out. It seemed like they had even specially created a new cultivation technique. Nangong Xuan did not comment. It did not sound like it was difficult, her ambition did not stop at the level of a Grand Elder, which was why she thought so. Every drop of sea water and every wisp of flame was separated into the most primitive two types of origin energy. After that, they would be continuously circulated until they reached a point where they could coexist together forever. Nangong Xuan: "... Otherwise, do you think that the Heavenly Dao Fragment are so easy to deal with, the Nan Gong Sect Leader and the rest would have already made their move. Chen Fan rolled his eyes at her, then continued to observe the Formation Pattern. The deaths of so many Senior Expert s might be related to this. Brat, you are too lucky. There might really be another Heavenly Dao Fragment, and it might even be in a state of recovery forever. The Deer God unconsciously lowered his voice. As the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao, there was no power in this world that could destroy him. At most, he would return to a long slumber and seal. After all, his vitality and the heavenly way existed together. As long as the heaven and earth did not extinguish, he would naturally possess an endless amount of Longevity. But the only enemy that Chen Fan had found here, the only one that truly terrified Deer God, was his own kind of Heavenly Dao Fragment. The thing that made the most sense happened so clearly. Originally, Deer God did not pay much attention to this matter. At most, he was only curious about the background of this family. In the end, he had set up such a large eight trigram formation, and even fused it with the Five Elements Array. This person''s strength was probably much higher than his. In theory, it was impossible for such a thing to appear. Chen Fan was stupefied. Previously, he was muttering the phrase "old bastard," which was the most suitable word to describe the Deer God. After all, he really did have an immortal body. Thousands of years had passed. Ever since they had been intercepted by Cao Rui, the strong practitioners of that era had already fallen into the cycle of reincarnation countless of times. Regardless if he was sealed within the Furnace Body or not, his life force would not be affected at all. At the very most, he no longer had the powerful strength that he used to have to fight against the Ancient Saint. Until today, another Heavenly Dao Fragment appeared out of nowhere, and just happened to respond to Chen Fan''s words. Judging from the eight trigram formation and the corpses from before, there was indeed a great terror within the Road Locked Hall. Don''t look at the fact that the Deer God and that mysterious unknown fellow had the same origin, but they did not leave any face and had to kill each other. This was due to the instincts of the Heavenly Dao Mother, which was impossible to resist. If it was really swallowed, the current state of the Deer God could only mean that he was dead. I never would have thought that the Heavenly Dao would be able to move all over the place. Deer God, who used to be careless and never cared about anything in the past, panicked. This kind of accident almost never happened. Since it was gossip, there should be the existence of the Gate of Life. If this formation was deduced from the changes in the Heavenly Dao, then a sliver of a chance of survival was required in order to be successfully laid out. Thinking back to the memories of the Formation Pattern, Chen Fan said. No matter if it was the great world outside or the small space called Road Locked Hall, as long as they were in a separate world, there would definitely be a way for them to survive, which would serve as the source of circulation for the entire region. Otherwise, if the laws couldn''t form a cycle of reincarnation, there would only be dead silence and desolation. It seems that the fragment has already sensed our existence, or perhaps it has been using these walls for thousands of years to prevent other experts from discovering its true body. The Deer God was also stable, and after looking again through the Zifu Space, the runes on each wall had different meanings. It seemed that the survivors from before had all seen through part of the truth behind this Eight Trigram Formation Diagram. Chen Fan walked in front of the wall and reached out to touch it, but he could not feel any energy fluctuations. Does that mean if we want to walk out alive, we have to pass through these walls? Along the way, Nangong Xuan had already gotten used to the shock. This was not a wall that could be seen with the naked eye, but a door that could be condensed from the power of the Eight Trigrams. Chen Fan explained as his brows furrowed more and more. He would rather kill those Heavenly Heart Beasts than face such a predicament. Then I''ll give it a try. Maybe if I''m lucky, I''ll be able to sense a certain door. Nangong Xuan who was at the side sat down cross legged, and treated this possible killing array as a good fortune, and poured all of her attention into it. From another point of view, it was not everywhere where the eight trigrams and the five elements appeared at the same time. It was absolutely impossible for the two of them to coexist. At most, it could be seen in two different places, so there was no intersection or connection between the two. These walls seemed to be the will of a Heavenly Dao Fragment, when it was formed by hand, there was indeed a bit of luck, and the entire Cultivation Realm was unable to produce the same miraculous scene. Just like how he had comprehended the Three Holy Arts earlier, Chen Fan still continued with his deep level of forging. His only goal was to focus on the Spiritual Consciousness s and focus on the Formation Pattern s on the wall. Large amounts of godly aura surged out from his body and gradually spread throughout the entire eight trigram formation. Deer God, on the other hand, forcefully activated it at the same time, forcefully activating a wisp of killing intent that acted as the avatar of the Heavenly Dao. However, from the start, the walls did not have any reaction, it was just a simple stone body, extremely cold, and did not care about Chen Fan''s actions at all. He even forced himself to enter a deep state of enlightenment, which would create an illusion. In reality, it wasn''t a fragment, but a problem in his prediction. Otherwise, he would have used the power of three saints, the countless Spiritual Consciousness that covered every inch of space around him. Nangong Xuan who was seated cross-legged previously sensed that something was amiss, but when she opened her eyes, she discovered the astonishment in her eyes. To this Holy Maiden, there were too many unknown mysteries on Chen Fan''s body. Not only was it able to solve the strange illness that had accumulated for twenty years, it could also cause the higher ups of the Yuan Sect to spin around. Fortunately, the latter had forged a strong enough identity for him. No matter how incredulous he was, the identity of the successor to the Ancient Saint was understandable. The Heavenly Dao itself does not have any attributes, but based on the four aspects of Gan, Zhen, Kan, and Kun, they should be separated by a section ¡­ Deer God muttered to himself, this feeling of going beyond one''s control was not good. Among the eight gates, there were only three gates to choose from, aside from the ones that were enveloped by the five elements, which was a big problem. The fusion of the five elements and the eight trigrams was influenced by the latter, so the death gate should be the reverse. This is bad, I have neglected the Five Elements formation diagram. Even if there was a Gate of Life, it could have been concealed by the metal attribute killing aura. After searching for a long time, he still did not manage to find anything. Hearing Deer God''s reminder, Chen Fan finally regained his senses. Strictly speaking, the so-called Gate of Life still existed, but it had been suppressed to the lowest level. Under these two layers of obstruction, not to mention being able to observe the real Heavenly Dao Fragment, it was fortunate that it did not get killed by the latter''s killing array. What should he do? Even if he found the Gate of Life, he might not even be able to pass it. Using your Three Holy Arts as a primer, Dao Burning Furnace can act as a yang and should be able to withstand the bombardment of the five elements. Deer God suggested. It was indeed a good idea, but Chen Fan shook his head. Old man, you sound so relaxed, I''m planning on using it to refine my life treasure, but if something goes wrong, go and find a suitable Dao Burning Furnace for me. The so-called Gate of Life was most likely a half-dead sect. At the moment, it was only in its hands ¡­ I believe that third disciple of yours, who was able to endure thousands of years of my life, would not be destroyed so quickly. Let me see what the Third Elder has in this small treasury that might be of use. After cleaning up, Chen Fan was somewhat disappointed to find that most of the Spiritual Being here were only middle-ranked. Thinking about it, it made sense. The Third Elder shouldn''t be so foolish, he must have brought the real Heavy Treasure with him. Among all the Storage Bag at his waist, the one that was the most precious was him. Helpless, he could only muster up the courage to listen to Deer God''s suggestion. Although it was a rotten idea, it would still work in theory. The Dao Burning Furnace had gathered a lot of Cao Rui''s sweat and blood, and there was no need to even mention how it was made from, it might not even be enough to directly fight against the Heavenly Dao Fragment. However, if it was simply opening up a path, taking the risk should be possible. Are you sure which one is the Gate of Life? Chen Fan asked. Since the old fellow had asked him, there was no need for him to worry. Third from the left. The Deer God responded, but it was unknown when he deduced it. Are you sure you aren''t mistaken? Chen Fan asked worriedly. Since this old fellow was always unreliable, and did not ask for any compensation this time, these two were alive and well, he had to be cautious. At most, he would just die, and I don''t think that Heavenly Dao Fragment has any intention of showing itself, it''s just trying to scare him. The meaning behind Deer God''s words, was that he had become a shopkeeper. If the former did not show himself, then no matter how great the trauma he had suffered would be, there would always be a time to recover. Then he might as well put you on top of his head, it would definitely be stronger than the Dao Burning Furnace. Chen Fan said faintly. Since he already had the indestructible constitution, it would be a waste whether he kept it or not. Indeed, this old man wasn''t confident. Otherwise, he wouldn''t let go of such an opportunity to extort money. C127 You know my physique. If you''re not afraid that I might fall apart midway, just come at me. Deer God spread out his hands and acted like a scoundrel. Chen Fan really had no other choice. Entering these walls was already very risky, but if there was any mistake, the Deer God would not die, but the consequences of breaking up were not something Chen Fan could bear. Furthermore, as it was an instinctive reaction between Heavenly Dao Fragment, there was a high chance that it couldn''t be wrong. I was afraid of encountering that one in a million. Chen Fan muttered. After a while, he wrote down millions of Spiritual Stone s on his account. Each of them had a life of one million. Their prices were fair and fair. Deer God could not hold back and exposed his old practice. Whoosh. He suddenly felt a lot more at ease. These Formation Pattern are too mysterious, I can at most inscribe a portion of them, let alone comprehend the true meaning within. Nangong Xuan rubbed her forehead, her eyebrows knitted tightly. It was already not easy for her to achieve this. Previously, it was only the legendary experts who had barely made it to this step. Only then did she finally break through. If he waited a few more years until this Lord Holy Maiden grew to the Golden Core Stage, perhaps he would be able to make it unimpeded without Chen Fan''s help. Come on, let''s get out. Chen Fan walked over and indicated that he could leave. How do I get there? Don''t tell me you''ve broken the Eight Trigrams Formation? Nangong Xuan was full of surprise. She had always been very confident in her own talent, but in front of this weirdo Chen Fan, she would be shocked from time to time. Both of us will use the Pagoda Art at the same time. When the time comes, use this thing to ignite the cauldron. If you follow behind me, you might suffer some pain. Chen Fan had to give Nangong Xuan a preventive measure first, otherwise his efforts would be wasted in the end. He had heard of the most unbearable pain a female cultivator could bear unless she gave birth to the next generation. Although Chen Fan had not experienced what it felt like to be there, he felt that the following journey would be even more torturous. They needed to forcibly break through the invisible power laid out in front of and behind the Heavenly Dao Fragment to open up a path of blood, which was no less than dancing at the edge of a volcano. The scorching heat wave, the threat of sliding feet, and the occasional gush of lava were all very dangerous. Just the thought of it made them feel scared. What? We just crash into them like that? Nangong Xuan guessed Chen Fan''s true intentions. All you have to do is think that this is a door that has nothing to do with the wall. Just like how Nangong Xuan had warned Chen Fan earlier, the words were returned unmoved. Trust me, I can do it. Leave these Formation Pattern to me. With his trust in Chen Fan ¡ª the latter had some doubts towards Deer God ¡ª the old fellow did not have absolute confidence in himself, and had even used his instinct as a pretext. Come on. The two of them silently activated their Pagoda Art, their expressions as normal as ever, but their hearts were filled with extreme nervousness, just that they did not want to show it too clearly. Weng! * Divine splendor surged as pure energy circulated within his body. It transformed into two streaks of light, shooting towards the wall. At this moment, no matter how Chen Fan and the others thought about it, the Formation Pattern, which did not even have a single reaction when striking out at them, began to move strangely. They had initially thought that it was just a painting, but they had never thought that it would contain the power of the five elements. This scene was not something they could see, how could they stop with their incomparable speed? Boss, you guys have to forgive Master, I''m afraid I can''t help you unseal the Seal of Samsara. If fate wills it, we master and disciple will meet again in the mortal world. Grandfather, all these years I have to thank you for your care and care, so I didn''t let myself give up. If I don''t have the chance to repay your kindness, I can only be your granddaughter in the next life. The former was related to Cao Rui and the others, and the latter was naturally the only one that Nangong Yi cared about, so it could be considered as a silent dying word. With the speed bestowed by the Buddha Arts, in addition to the weight of the user and the destruction of the Formation Pattern, it was very possible that they would truly part ways this time. Following the brilliant scenes that appeared in their minds, all of them were the things that they had experienced in their lives. Chen Fan and Yue Yang suddenly felt that their steps had become a lot more stable. Opening his eyes, he surveyed his surroundings. His face was filled with confusion. Am I already in the Underworld? This should be the Yellow Springs Dao. In such a desolate location, we have to go to the Bridge of Helplessness. Sigh, I never thought that I, Chen Fan, would end up like this after being enlightened for a lifetime. The two talked for a while and gradually recovered their sight. They discovered that there was no longer that layer of gray fog, but rather a relatively narrow space. The walls on both sides were also made of the same material. The width of the walls was about ten feet, which was sufficient to accommodate two people. This method had already restricted their other choices. The most important thing was that this place was not some Underworld''s place. A genuine Spiritual Energy''s aura could be sensed from here, which clearly belonged to a unique characteristic of the outside world. We are not dead! Looking at each other, Chen Fan and Nangong Xuan were overjoyed. Only people who had truly experienced despair would be able to experience their current excitement. The 3000 great daos, the small hills of Spiritual Stone, or even the strength of a Martial Saint, all of these were far from being as important as being alive at this moment. Most of those Formation Pattern had already been controlled. Although there was no way to make use of them, there was no doubt about the judgement of the sect. Chen Fan unhesitantly snatched Deer God''s contribution and placed it on his own head. What? This is the special instinct between Heavenly Dao Fragment. Mortals like you wouldn''t be able to understand it. Deer God laughed out loud. Since Chen Fan and the others were still here, it meant that there was no problem with the sect''s decision. However, at this time, Chen Fan no longer had the time to bother with him. Just as he entered the door, before he could even stand steadily, he felt the unfriendliness in this place. The pressure that had entered the Road Locked Hall at the beginning appeared once again, and was even stronger than before by at least several times. The two people couldn''t help but bend their bodies. It was as if an invisible shackle had appeared in the air and was ruthlessly suppressing them. This force was extremely swift and violent, and judging from this situation, they would probably be crushed into meat patties. This is the power of the five elements that the Heavenly Dao Fragment s have set up, follow closely behind me, do not stray too far away from the protection range of the Dao Burning Furnace. In the end, at the critical moment, he didn''t have time to explain. Chen Fan directly summoned the Dao Burning Furnace, and used all his strength to push it to the extreme. The pressure was still there, but it was slightly pushed back by the Furnace Body, causing the two''s bodies to feel much better. Chen Fan lifted a huge rock in his heart, he could clearly see that the Dao Burning Furnace was shaking. Even when he was facing the Third Elder before, he did not show signs of shaking so quickly. It could be seen how strong this pressure was, and it was even stronger than that of the Yuan Sect Elder. Good. Nangong Xuan spoke with great difficulty, she had naturally realized the power of this killing array. In this kind of place, the strength of half a step into the Core Condensating was simply not enough. Speaking of which, this Heavenly Dao Fragment seemed to be teasing them. After coming to this match, a familiar scene suddenly appeared in front of their eyes: Ancient Tree, hills, the sound of flowing water. Although they had never been to this place before, they were able to conclude that this was North Domain. It was not an illusion conjured by the Spiritual Consciousness, but something seen with the naked eye. It could not be faked, and it gave rise to endless expectations from others. Although it was within reach, it was separated by a natural chasm, which was much more expensive than the Feng Shui vein outside of the main hall. Judging the distance with their blurry sense of direction, they would at most be at least a hundred meters away. With nothing else to say, Chen Fan and Nangong Xuan looked at each other and started to move forward. However, the moment they took their first step, they attracted endless power from the five elements. It was as if they had sunk deep into the ocean and were surrounded by layers upon layers of waves. Maybe there really was some sort of reaction between the Heavenly Dao Fragment. Deer God had guessed that there was not only a Gate of Life, but also a method to use it as an attack. Clang! Clang! Clang! When every wisp of energy clashed with the Furnace Body, sparks would splash out, along with the ear-piercing sound of divine weapons clashing. It was as if they were being surrounded from all sides. Furthermore, they were all sharp Lex Sabre and their movements were getting larger and larger. Chen Fan gritted his teeth and even cut his palm, igniting the Blood Essence''s power to supply himself. The Dao Burning Furnace had withstood seventy to eighty percent of the external force in place of him, and was the key to walking out of this great hall. Strictly speaking, this place no longer belonged to the scope of the Road Locked Hall, but a passage that was connected to the outside world. The power of the five elements all manifested in the form of the Aged Gold Qi. It was as if thousands of steel needles were stabbing into his body unceasingly. Each of them was extremely pleasing to the eye. Originally, within such a short distance, even if it were an ordinary person, they would be able to cross it within several dozen breaths of time. However, due to the obstruction of the five elements, the two of them encountered the biggest obstacle since they started cultivating. After half an hour passed, he had only moved less than half the distance. His entire body was drenched in sweat, and his cultivation was severely damaged. It was unknown just how much longer he could last. Especially for Chen Fan, who was in the front, he would rather have a great battle of life and death with the Third Elder, or directly carry out a heavenly tribulation to attack him. He was not willing to stay in this kind of damned place for even a moment longer. Nangong Xuan, who was at the back, was not well either. At the same time, facing the eight trigram formation''s pressure as well as the five elements'' attack, her extraordinary talent was once again at use. Relying on the part of the tattoo he had carved earlier, his body emitted a different kind of silver light. It seemed to have the intention of assimilating this mysterious power. C128 It was just a trend, and she had not reached that realm yet. Almost no one could truly grasp onto these two Innate objects, and only the Heavenly Dao Fragment could. Nangong Xuan''s face became even paler as beads of sweat the size of beans dripped down. However, the unyielding look in her eyes was even more resolute, causing her to unconsciously intensify her refinement of external strength. In front of him was Chen Fan, and above him was the Furnace Body''s suppression. It created an exceptional refining environment for Nangong Xuan, and the pain also gradually weakened a lot. With the passage of time and distance, a hole appeared in the Dao Burning Furnace''s perfect defense. From time to time, a formation would leak out and directly burrow into Chen Fan''s body. Immediately, he felt an excruciating pain that pierced deep into his flesh, almost causing him to faint. The Formation Pattern even wanted to tear him apart alive. This was not like the metal needle like Gengjin Qi, it was the source of all the disasters and was able to destroy Chen Fan''s body. Fortunately, the Three Saints managed to react in time and ended up in a stalemate with their meridians, not causing any more injuries. They were always this tyrannical, and only with the help of the laws of the Ancient Saint could they fight to a draw. In other words, they possessed an extraordinary amount of steadfastness and calmness. Twenty years of training in the dao heart and over ten thousand years of cultivation experience. These were all precious trump cards. Normally, it was not very obvious, nor did he see any increase in strength. It was only when they met with such danger, that they had a greater chance of surviving than the Nascent Infant Stage elders. It was likely that the survivors had all experienced the same path, but after all, the power of the five elements and the eight trigram formation diagram weren''t something that a human could hope to reach. Naturally, they kept it a secret. Through mystery and concealment, they would prevent future generations from continuing their search. If they were to strictly forbid it, it would only attract more attention. After suffering like this for half an hour, the two of them had finally reached the final barrier. There was only a thin layer of light in front of them, and once they broke through, they would be able to return to the North Domain. Blood trickled out of the corner of both of their mouths. If one were to use the Spiritual Consciousness''s inner vision, Chen Fan would still be able to see signs of bones shattering. Nangong Xuan''s condition wouldn''t be much better. She entered a different method to refine it, but in the end, there was still a limit, and her body received an unimaginable amount of damage. At this moment, the suppression of the five elements also reached its limit, the sky was filled with the Gengjin Qi, the Furnace Body s released a series of clanging sounds, Chen Fan''s heart was also beating quickly. Damn it, we still can''t break this seal! Nangong Xuan blocked in front, worried that Chen Fan might not be able to hold on, but she realized the fact that she was afraid. That layer of light looked weak, but even if she used all her strength, she was still unable to break through it. She even almost fell to the ground. F * ck, this shard really became smarter. In the future, when I recover, no matter what, I have to find him and settle this score! Deer God was constantly monitoring the situation outside from within his Zifu Space, and upon seeing this, he couldn''t help but curse. Move Out of the way... Let me do it ¡­ Chen Fan found it difficult to even speak, as long as he opened his mouth, blood would gush out from his throat. Since it had already reached this step, there was no other choice. It made a prompt decision and threw the Dao Burning Furnace out, allowing it to display its last bit of heat. Bang! The situation was not bad, the Furnace Body blossomed out with light, and after wearing each other down for a while, they rolled out. At the same time, there was an attraction force that attracted Chen Fan and Nangong Xuan to the outside world. Even if the latter created its own world, its level would still be lower than that of this world. As long as a crack appeared in the barrier of light, it would be able to trap everything nearby. The dignified Supreme Wu Tian, the Hua Ding Sect Holy Maiden, had also experienced the feeling of being treated as something. Phew, I finally escaped! After exploring the subterranean world for three days and three nights, I knew how many times I had wandered around the line between life and death. This was much stronger than the gray fog within the Road Locked Hall. At most, he would only sweat hot sweat, but it was not enough to cause any harm to the Spiritual Consciousness. It was a pity that he did not manage to see the true appearance and body of the Heavenly Dao Fragment. Of course, from the perspective of the Deer God, it was still better to not see it. Without saying much, Chen Fan immediately took out two thousand year old spirit fruits and the two sat down, greedily absorbing the medicinal energy within. Only after more than two hours of recovery did he manage to stabilize his injuries. Nangong Xuan had still lost a large portion of her Spiritual Energy s, but the rest were fine. As for Chen Fan, with this body as his foundation, he could still suppress him for the time being. Now that he had confirmed his safety, naturally he would be safe. It was good to be alive. These few simple words were Nangong Xuan''s best assessment of her nightmare experiences these few days, and similarly, it gained quite a bit, from the state of mind to the level of her cultivation, both had increased. As expected, with the help of the power of the five elements and the eight trigram formation diagram, he broke the shackles in Nangong Xuan''s body at the same time. If she was still at the Hua Ding Sect, she would have had to pay a greater price and time to take this step, and might even be ranked first among the younger generation in the entire Cultivation Realm. Grandfather definitely hasn''t gone inside the Road Locked Hall, I have also been in close contact with the Heavenly Dao Fragment, let''s see how he will continue nagging now, hahaha. Nangong Xuan laughed. From the very beginning, she was always optimistic, only occasionally she would reveal the look of a little girl, and most of the time people would forget about her identity. Especially when she was in such a vigorous state during battle, even Chen Fan couldn''t compare to her. She was completely a crazed tigress. Since the Nan Gong Sect Leader had a good granddaughter, and his Hua Ding Sect could also have a good Holy Maiden, it was marvelous. Chen Fan faintly sighed. He could even foresee Nangong Xuan''s potential in the future. As long as he started to grow normally, within a few decades of effort, his Hua Ding Sect would definitely increase by another extreme expert, and it would be enough to intimidate his Yuan Sect. To continue running or what? It looked like Nangong Xuan still had some unsatisfied feelings as she looked far into the distance, exactly in the direction of the Yuan Sect. I will return to the Qing Xuan Sect right now and wait a week for me to treat the wounds on your face. Chen Fan was secretly speechless. Hearing this, the dignified Holy Maiden Lord did not have enough fun, he did not have the mood to leisurely play around. Before, he had been using Gu Feng''s identity to trick those Expert From Yuan Sect s, but now it was time to leave. Moreover, he had made a breakthrough not long ago, so he needed to stabilize his cultivation. The Third Elder and the others were still searching the entire world for traces of you. Nangong Xuan revealed a cunning smile, her beautiful eyes were filled with spirit, even though she did not have that drop dead gorgeous appearance, she still could not hide her elegance. No Foundation Establishment cultivator had ever been able to survive in the vein of the earth unless and until the next time the Demon Sealing Shop made a move, someone would discover traces of our footsteps. Chen Fan said indifferently, but he felt a little awkward in his heart. After being chased down for the past few days, Nangong Xuan had to help out a lot, so he didn''t put on airs in front of her. Sigh, if you want to do this again, you have to call me. Chen Fan:... As if this Holy Maiden was addicted to being hunted by others, he naturally knew Nangong Xuan''s real intention. She wanted to take this opportunity to gain more experience, and it seemed like she had also tasted the sweetness. In the past twenty years, she had always been troubled by these strange illnesses, and had never stepped out of the Hua Ding Sect a few times. Only now did she get the chance, and wished that she could train every day to recover from her previous losses. As much as I can, I won''t do anything else until I make my next breakthrough. It wasn''t easy for him to cut such a fat piece of meat from Yuan Sect''s hands. Chen Fan didn''t have any plans to leave the Qing Xuan Sect during this period of time. You should also focus on cultivation and prepare to stabilize your cultivation. The matter of Yuan Sect should be considered as over and done with, so there''s no need to worry too much about it. If that''s the case, alright, then I will go back to the Sect now and not disturb you. Nangong Xuan was obviously a little disappointed. She lowered her head, even her voice had become quite a bit softer, and she looked even more depressed than when she was at Road Locked Hall. My breaking through speed is really fast, I''ll be able to relax in almost two months, maybe I''ll even have to go to the depths of Barbarian Domain to loosen the barrier. Chen Fan hurriedly added as his heart ached for no reason. This girl was indeed pitiful, having endured twenty years of mockery and ridicule. Even if it was granted to him a strong dao heart that far surpassed his peers, such an experience wasn''t something that anyone could bear, especially with Nangong Xuan''s background, there was no need to be so difficult. Alright, can you use these jade platforms now? She really was a baby face, upon hearing that, Nangong Xuan immediately laughed, laughing as she took out a few large jade platforms, with a clang sound, she directly injected herself into the Spiritual Energy. After painstakingly collecting for so long, he had finally found a use for it. Chen Fan subconsciously looked around to make sure that there were no signs of any other Yuan Sect Elders around. Brat, you''ve finally become enlightened. It looks like my influence is still quite effective. Right now I''m just his teacher. I need to have the right attitude towards my patient. Come on, you wouldn''t do such a thing if you had to do it in the past. With so many goddesses personally visiting, you''ve made them all suffer the consequences of their actions. Deer God laughed strangely, revealing a look of someone who understood everything. He could trick others, but he could not fool this old fellow. How do you know that? Chen Fan could not help but be curious. All of these things happened when he was still a Supreme Wu Tian. Thinking back, emotions between men and women were indeed his most stable aspect. After thousands of years of wearing down, his cultivation base had all dropped to the extreme, yet he still could not see a girl without turning into wood. C129 That junior disciple of yours is not very talkative, so there''s nothing to hide. Deer God directly sold Cao Rui out, and the former told him all of this. This brat spent all his time looking at these useless things. No wonder his cultivation level couldn''t catch up to his second senior brother. Chen Fan gave a sidelong glance and ignored the Deer God. It seemed that this was one of the reasons why Cao Rui wasn''t welcomed. Chen Fan had even predicted that after Nangong Xuan had returned to the Hua Ding Sect, it would definitely be that grandfather who stood at the peak of the North Domain who hurriedly came forward to ask about his well-being. After that, he would obtain the information regarding Road Locked Hall from her mouth, and he would be so shocked that he would not even be able to close his mouth. It was hard to believe that his darling granddaughter would encounter such good fortune the first time she was released for training. She might even gather many Senior Expert s to investigate. As his heart ached, he took out a large number of rare Spiritual Being s from the treasury to help Nangong Xuan stabilize his cultivation. He wanted to take this opportunity to build up his momentum and call himself Holy Maiden. Sigh, this world is truly unfair. Comparing life and death, comparing life and death, comparing life and death, comparing goods and goods, comparing life and death. Chen Fan sighed, he did not have any expectations towards his own land. Don''t be discouraged, this is only a temporary predicament, in the future will gradually adapt. The brat''s position and position in the Qing Xuan Sect was unknown, his treatment was even worse than the former, and he was even threatened of being expelled from the Sect. After that, he continued fantasizing about Nangong Xuan and Chen Fan also returned to the Qing Xuan Sect. If there were no surprises, other than the cold bench ¡­ It was the cold threshold... Even when he had entered the mountain gate, he had purposely disguised himself so that the other disciples would not be able to recognize him, in case any unnecessary disputes or troubles arose. Originally, Zhao Xu should have been taking care of the Spiritual Peak, it just so happened to be the fifth elder''s dao day, so he went out to look for the Protector Qin, the vast spirit field was empty. Wu, looks like Zhao Xu has spent quite a bit of effort. Indeed, when Chen Fan left, this place was still a wasteland, and it had only been a short period of time, and there was already a green spirit plant growing here. Judging from his growth, he would only need a few more months before he would mature and reap the harvest. Furthermore, Chen Fan had not explained anything to him yet, it was Zhao Xu who had acted on his own accord and treated this Spiritual Peak as his own stronghold. It reminded him of the small town Yuan Sect. Before the Protector Rankers went to various places to inspect, they would first greet them. Since they were in the same sect, naturally, they were well aware of this as well. The disciples that were guarding the small town had already made their preparations. They took out the Spiritual Being s that they were supposed to hand over, and waited to see how the Protector''s face looked. It was simply impossible for the higher ups of the Yuan Sect to know the truth of the situation. Of course, they did not have such thoughts, as long as they could guarantee the timely supply of cultivation resources. And today, Chen Fan had returned without any warning, so it could be seen that even though he was not cultivating on the Spiritual Peak, Zhao Xu was still able to take care of everything in a neat and orderly manner. The hall that almost no outsider had visited was extremely neat and tidy. Not even a speck of dust could be found on the table with a finger, it was wide open and bright, to some extent, it was a comfort to Chen Fan. At least he had managed to win over two hardcore supporters, which would be the starting point for his recovery of Qing Xuan Sect. According to the words of the Deer God, he just needed to take one step at a time. He activated the Spell Formation of the entire Spiritual Peak once again. Although it was normally in the state of circulation, after he used his own hands to break the mirror, the brightness of the Formation Pattern increased by a lot. At the same time, Chen Fan also casually added the gains he had gotten from the Road Locked Hall. The range of the range of the formation did not expand, and the might increased by at least seventy to eighty percent. A large group of Talisman was hidden in the air, representing Chen Fan''s current mental realm. He had personally set up the fusion between the Formation Pattern and himself, so returning to the field would naturally be easy. Suddenly, the density of the confused Spiritual Energy in the air increased even more. If one were to observe from the perspective of the Spiritual Consciousness, then they would notice that it was encircling their entire bodies and it would seem that they would not be at a disadvantage even when compared to the area where the Sect Leader was. Right now, your job is to stabilize your Tao Foundation. It''s better to have so many Spiritual Being s to squander than to save on self-destruction. The Deer God said with a deeper meaning, and mentioned another person''s sore spot. Heh, if something like that happens again, I''ll just kill myself to thank the world. Chen Fan finally understood that if placed in the Storage Bag s, he would only be taking care of them for the time being. Only by swallowing these Spiritual Being into his body and turning them into true combat powers would he truly be considered to belong to himself. If not, if he were to face the pursuit from an expert like the Protector Sun, he would have to destroy his treasures to escape, which was simply a huge waste. Come on, you still have a shitty world? Think about your original title, maybe you will be entangled with the heavenly law for the rest of your life. Deer God''s words made Chen Fan speechless. After thinking about it carefully, it was really true, back then the name of Supreme Wu Tian was personally chosen by him, who would have thought that so many things would happen ten thousand years later. It was fortunate that the Dao foundation was not damaged by the fragment. Chen Fan reminded them because he relied on the strength of the Dao Burning Furnace s to avoid a greater disaster. Right, I need to repair the Furnace Body first. Chen Fan took out the Dao Burning Furnace with his mind, it was covered with scratches, and he could vaguely see cracks appearing on the inner wall. You mend yourself first, then you can think about this. When the time comes, both of them will collapse. Deer God shot out a beam of light, surrounding the Furnace Body and floating in the air, swaying it unsteadily. The patterns on the Dao Burning Furnace''s surface lit up once again. Although it had dimmed quite a bit, there was still light on it in the end. This meant that it could still be repaired even though it had not touched the source. This is? Chen Fan felt that the aura being emitted from it was a little familiar, but he was not sure. In any case, I''ve been here for thousands of years, and I barely managed to get a layer of good stuff. Deer God did not plan to say much. In fact, he had used a portion of the energy that he had found difficult to recover during this period of time. This was something that belonged to the level of the Heavenly Dao. After all, Cao Rui had paid a large price when he first refined this Dao Burning Furnace, and the materials alone were no longer found today. It was practically extinct. Thank you very much. Chen Fan did not pursue the matter any further, as he could more or less guess, he cupped his hands and bowed, this time expressing his sincere gratitude. Without further ado, he sat down cross-legged and directly closed his eyes, entering a state of cultivation. Only now did he realize the terrible state of his body. C130 From the outside, there didn''t seem to be any obvious wounds. The steel needles drilled into his skin through his pores, but in reality, they covered every inch of his skin. His rosy complexion was completely reliant on his vitality. The blood in his eyes had yet to disperse, and it had almost occupied a large portion of the whites in his eyes. He was almost no different from those Demonic Beast s in the Wilderness. Other than the head of Deer God, who was in the formation himself, all of his internal organs had been injured to varying degrees. Although it was not to the point of cracking, it had been completely deflected. There was still a huge difference between him and Nangong Xuan, the latter tended to borrow the strength of the Heavenly Dao to train themselves, the kind of method to melt the two types of Innate powers was something no one could learn. He also had the dual protection from the Dao Burning Furnace and Chen Fan. Just by this, he could take back the favor Nangong Xuan had given him when he saved his life, as well as accompanying him as he escaped far away. It had to be known that the chances of obtaining the good fortune of the Heavenly Dao was close to zero. With so many Senior Expert dying in the Road Locked Hall, this was the best proof. Only this Lord Holy Maiden had imperceptibly even increased the upper limit of her potential by a lot. The deeper she went, the more it would manifest itself, and the benefits of a single trip to the Road Locked Hall. Sigh, Chen Fan sighed heavily, it was useless to complain. It had to be said that the Heavenly Dao Fragment''s power was beyond imagination. From start to finish, it had not shown itself, and only laid down the eight trigram formation diagram, perhaps even operated for several thousand years. However, those sharp steel needle attacks had corroded almost every meridian in his body. If he hesitated for even a second longer, there might be irreparable consequences. The Eternal Heaven Divine Arts already started to circulate on its own, transforming the Spiritual Being into mist continuously before entering Chen Fan''s body to repair his heavy injuries. Because of this, the Deer God even helped on the side by specially inscribing a few Formation Pattern, which were all used to condense Spiritual Energy, speeding up the process of refining them. The density of the Spiritual Energy in this hut instantly increased to the extent that it could be used to squeeze out droplets easily. Even the little treasury of the Third Elder was not empty. Fortunately, an Earth Meridian had stopped the Yuan Sect from continuing to pursue and kill him, or else he would definitely become extremely troublesome to kill Chen Fan. The current Chen Fan was like a shriveled up ball, with a few holes pierced through. He needed these Spiritual Energy to replenish his strength and strengthen him once more. Rumble rumble rumble! The surging Spiritual Energy turned into a wave, surrounding every inch of space as well as the insides of his body. All of the pores on his body had been opened to the limit, and at the same time, his seven orifices shone, directly connecting to his Dantian. After suddenly receiving the attack from the external force, Chen Fan''s body was no longer able to hold on. Even his bones had become light, and started to shake uncontrollably. In this vast sea of Spiritual Energy, this small boat looked like it was swaying, as though it would be overturned in the next moment. The other strand of Three Saint Force was not idle either. Instead, it slowly floated above the Zifu Space, trying to stir up as much life force as possible so as to better stabilize the base. When he first started comprehending the Three Sacred Arts, he was led by the Spiritual Consciousness, which settled the situation of the Zifu Space being occupied later. Of course, this would not be detrimental to Chen Fan. On the contrary, it allowed them to advance the Three Holy Arts and the Spiritual Consciousness at the same time, and at the same time, it allowed them to increase at a higher level. In the end, there was even a fight between the Three Sacred Arts and the Myriad Manifestation Art. The two sides fought back and forth between each other, and the competition was extremely intense. Neither of them would let go of the spiritual energy that was pouring into their meridians. Chen Fan was naturally happy to see such a scene, the Deer God also took the chance to take advantage of it. Only Chen Fan''s body could still withstand it, if it was any other Foundation Establishment stage cultivator, they would have already stopped. A faint pattern appeared on the surface of his skin. It seemed that this was the result of him coming into contact with the Eight Trigram Formation Diagram, or perhaps he had gotten lucky with Nangong Xuan. Under the Spiritual Energy''s control, it gradually turned and became lively, as if it was about to burst out at any moment. This process was destined to be slow, moreover, it was not urgent. Every meridian had to be restored, and these body parts could not be lost, or else it would affect future cultivation. After truly immersing himself in cultivation, he no longer had the concept of time passing. It was as if a day and night had passed within the blink of an eye within his Road Locked Hall. When Chen Fan opened his eyes again, he finally understood the true power of a Foundation Building Stage cultivator after breaking through ¡ª he was almost able to use his flesh to shake the void. Before the excitement in his heart could dissipate, it was immediately replaced by sorrow. Just what the hell was this? It was early in the morning, and it was originally the start of the day. Chen Fan stared at the distant morning sun, but no matter how he looked at it, Chen Fan seemed to be ridiculing himself. Alien Minister Chen?! Seeing the figure in front of him, Zhao Xu was both surprised and happy, as he could not believe his own eyes. From the moment he stepped onto the Pingquan Peak, he had already noticed the change in the Spell Formation, and subconsciously thought that the other protectors had come to offend him. You''ve done quite well this month. Take it and continue to refine it. In two days, prepare to break through to the next realm. Chen Fan casually took out the Spiritual Being he got from the Third Elder. It was only a thousand-year old medicinal fruit, it was nothing special. Alien Minister Chen, I do not dare to accept such a precious spiritual plant. Zhao Xu repeatedly waved his hand. In his opinion, all of these were things that he should do and he never thought about rewards. In the future, you''ll have to have enough strength to back up your work, so you can''t always go trouble your master. Deer God said euphemistically, and indirectly mentioned that he would also help Protector Qin carry out a new baptism. It was precisely because of the time he made a move at the Hua Ding Sect that caused this master and disciple pair to wholeheartedly submit to him, and it seemed to have also tested him for almost a few months. In those few consecutive battles that the Protector Liu and the Fifth Elder were fighting, Zhao Xu and the Protector Qin stood firmly on his side. Of course Chen Fan saw this, after working so hard for so long, making them bear all the trouble for nothing, they would have to give them some benefits. Moreover, under''s leadership, they had to improve even faster than the other direct disciples. Good! Although he did not know where Chen Fan had gone to during this period of time, Zhao Xu did not decline any further. After agreeing to it, he immediately turned around to look for the Protector Qin, an opportunity that had descended from the heavens. C131 After that, Chen Fan was not in a hurry to repair the Dao Burning Furnace, but instead welcomed a rare free time. He walked around in his Pingquan Peak, looking at the 3 acres of land that he had fought for with great difficulty, and sighed in his heart. According to him, he had just experienced a great calamity, so there was no need for him to be so tense. This way, his physical body would be able to relax. He would occasionally go and cultivate the spirit farmland and check on Zhao Xu''s results. From time to time, he would discuss it with the Deer God, but he had no plans to leave the place. In other words, the entire Qing Xuan Sect, including the Fifth Elder and the Sect Leader, did not know of his return. Could it be that the reason the Sect gained such a rare calm and quiet state of mind was because of him? If nothing unexpected happened, Bai Yu could still ascend the mountain successfully. Although he did not go down the mountain, Chen Fan could deduce that the Fifth Elder was secretly helping him build his momentum. Zhao Xu and the Protector Qin were his best cover and eyes, he kept on informing them about what was going on. This way, their side would be able to gain another Elder seat, but they did not know what the Sect Leader was thinking. From the first time Chen Fan had come to the Qing Xuan Sect, he had already noticed that he also seemed to have the intention of aiding Bai Yu. However, after the latter had successfully stepped into the upper echelons, it did not benefit him at all. Aside from the internal affairs of the Sect, something that Chen Fan could not wrap his head around, seemed like the turmoil of the Yuan Sect did not have much of an impact and did not affect this place. Even many of the inner sect disciples did not know what was going on, and only knew that during the period of time when Yuan Sect were wantonly pursuing them throughout the world, they did not know a single thing about the inside story. Sigh, perhaps my Qing Xuan Sect has not dropped yet, and I am completely unable to enter the realm of Yuan Sect. Chen Fan was even self-deprecating towards these old fellows from Qing Xuan Sect. With such a huge matter happening in the Yuan Sect, half of the Cultivation Realm had already been heard about, yet Qing Xuan Sect simply wasn''t the target of suspicion. A sect that was on the verge of death didn''t have the guts to go up against the former. Within half a year, if you can advance to the Nascent Infant Stage, this Sect will certainly be led by you. Deer God also felt that it was different. Compared to when he was first sealed, his Qing Xuan Sect had already become countless times weaker, to the point where he was almost unable to keep his position as a transcendent power anymore. Forget about Zhao Xu and the other young disciples, ever since they entered Sect, they had this kind of half-dead look, and did not have much of a reaction. As for the Great Elder, they were all unwilling to see the Qing Xuan Sect collapse in his hands because of a single obsession in their hearts. Only Chen Fan and Deer God had personally witnessed the brilliance of the Qing Xuan Sect. The former was the indirect creator of the Sect; F * ck, he was too nervous for half a year, so he had to at least add one or two more. No one wanted to restore their Qing Xuan Sect more than Chen Fan. This was his only chance to recover his strength, but Deer God''s words were a bit too much in space. Compared to Supreme Stage, Nascent Infant Stage Expert was nothing much, but at the same time, it also required an extremely high level of talent and time accumulation, causing the Great Clan Elder and the Sect Leader, who had not cultivated for hundreds of years, to have the strength to walk the path of North Domain alone. With such a long set of clothes, even the word "Inherent Skills" could not make up for it. In Chen Fan''s ten thousand years of memories, there were only a handful of people that could raise their Nascent Infant that fast. Some had truly grown to an even higher level, and could be said to be outstanding talents of their generation. The remaining few, on the other hand, had their potential crushed too early, and never made much progress in their lives. You have to be alert at all times, don''t just see the boundaries of North Domain, or else that little girl Nangong Xuan might already be at the top. In my opinion, it will take her another twenty to thirty years to refine Nascent Infant. Deer God stroked his beard, which was never there in the first place, and made a gesture to put on an act. Now he could just cut it in half. Ten years would be enough. This was something that Chen Fan could still determine. The less than one in ten thousand good fortune of the Heavenly Dao Fragment s, was enough for Nangong Xuan to enjoy it for her entire life. Even so, there is still a huge gap between you and the geniuses of your era. You have to follow the standards of a Zhizun realm expert. This was even a rare serious warning from the Deer God. Hearing the strange looks that flashed across Chen Fan''s eyes, he thought that the old fellow had been severely injured by his Road Locked Hall and would dissipate very soon. The fall of the Qing Xuan Sect was just a miniature retreat. His entire Cultivation Realm was in fact, regressing a bit, because just having a set of Yuan Sect did not mean anything. Chen Fan analyzed it seriously. Ever since he sealed himself underground, he had predicted that once he awakened, he would face the changes of the world. All things had a spirit. Under the guidance of the Heavenly Dao, they would go through a cycle of endless growth, thus creating this world. Just like the changes in the ocean, the level of cultivation was also in the cycle of reincarnation. Thinking about it, it made sense. Maybe the heaven and earth laws no longer allowed Ancient Saint s and above to appear, and the great battle from five thousand years ago could no longer be repeated. In my previous life, if I could become a Zhi Zun, I would have to at least become a Ancient Saint in this life. Even if there was a piece of the laws of heaven and earth he would not hesitate to do so. Cultivation is something that defies the will of the heavens and earth, this saying was something that he had understood ten thousand years ago. And then, for an entire three days, Chen Fan was in the midst of adjusting his condition to prepare for Zhao Xu and his disciple''s baptism. He planned to break through two realms in one go. This could also be considered Chen Fan''s special reward. Like the other Senior Expert s, no matter how many benefits they received or how many Spiritual Being s they were offered, they were all useless. However, he did not wait for Zhao Xu to arrive. Instead, it was someone else. Two young figures appeared under the Pingquan Peak with arrogant looks. Who are you? Chen Fan removed the Spell Formation, leaving a path behind. In terms of area of the Pingquan Peak, he was not worried about any challenges. This great protective formation was the best trump card he could get his hands on, especially after the last two days of temporary strengthening, it was even better than before. But when the two of them got closer, Chen Fan accidentally caught a glimpse of the symbol on his chest. He thought to himself, ''Could it be that those things were found out, or that they got some new information from Master Feng to target me?'' Although he was guilty of being a thief, it was fortunate that Chen Fan had experienced something similar for many years. He was very calm, and his face did not show any changes. C132 You''re the one who injured Junior Brother Hu Mu, right? Hmph hmph, my Yuan Sect''s disciples have never suffered a loss before! One of them said. He was full of vigor and looked completely condescending. Hehe, your news is really fast. His own family''s Sect still didn''t know that he had returned. Instead, it sounded extremely laughable for a Yuan Sect disciple to come knocking on his door first. Even if they were to, they couldn''t just casually walk around in the Qing Xuan Sect, furthermore, they had found this place from the Domain Gate of the Martial Arts Practice Grounds. Chen Fan was one hundred percent sure that there were other disciples who would be the ones to lead the way. And at this moment, both Sect Leader and Qian De had definitely found out about Chen Fan''s whereabouts. Since you haven''t lost out before, then you should have a taste of what it tastes like, and count it as a free gift from me. As long as it was not because of the little treasury and the Void Tomb, he had nothing to worry about. Moreover, if the Yuan Sect was really vigilant, they couldn''t possibly send just these two youngsters. If they let him escape, that would be even more shameful. What did you say? Bastard, no one dares to talk to me like that! The disciple immediately became angry and shouted loudly. I thought you were deaf and dumb, but your limbs are so healthy. If he only wanted to fight, Chen Fan would accompany him to the end. You! That guy was just about to get angry, but was held down by another Yuan Sect disciple, indicating that he shouldn''t be so excited. Chen Fan, we are not unreasonable people, we are only here today to ask for an explanation for Junior Hu. Either you compensate him with a million Spiritual Stone, as compensation, or ¡­ That disciple pinched his knuckles, causing a series of ''ka ka ka'' sounds. The threat was self-evident. Looking at the cultivation base on the open side, And most importantly, since the Qing Xuan Sect disciples had brought them to this place, and no protectors had appeared yet, they had unquestionably tacitly agreed to take action against Chen Fan. Even if these two Yuan Sect disciples were to battle fiercely and teach him a lesson under the latter''s Spiritual Peak, he wouldn''t have to bear any responsibility and would feel at ease. Well, let me think about it first, you guys find a place to sit. Chen Fan casually called out to the two of them, causing the former to be speechless. He gradually started to understand, it seemed that these two fellows were entrusted here, it was possible that Hu Mu was angry, and was unable to vent out the anger in his heart. He might as well find two senior brothers from the same sect and go to the Qing Xuan Sect to start another old grudge. He might as well try to take this opportunity to get back at them and reduce the Third Elder''s losses. If this was before, Hu Mu that brat would never care about some Spiritual Stone, let alone propose such a condition. It really is my good Grandson. Chen Fan couldn''t help but sigh with emotion. After going through such a life and death crisis, Hu Mu had even grown up with his'' selfless help ''. Isn''t one million a bit too much ¡­ Chen Fan pretended to be deep in thought and suddenly raised his head. Oh right, you all haven''t revealed your identities yet, what''s wrong with having a sect? If it''s some Rogue Cultivator disguise, then ¡­ I have wasted so many Spiritual Stone s for nothing. Hearing this, the two of them were somewhat helpless. Did this guy know what had happened? He was obviously here to cause trouble, but in the end he had the feeling that he was playing a fool. Ma Yuan. Zhang Kang. If not for the fact that Chen Fan seemed to be interested in handing over the Spiritual Stone, they would have rushed over to beat him up. During this period of time, a fire had indeed been suffocated within the boundaries of the entire Yuan Sect, from top to bottom. There were even some direct disciples who went out to fight against the Demonic Beast specifically as a way to vent their anger towards the Void Tomb and their worship. Make sure that there''s your two names in the Yuan Sect, right? There can''t be any mistakes, if not, I won''t be able to handle it either. Chen Fan talked for a long time, but managed to calm himself down after two days. Finally, two outsiders came and intentionally teased them. Senior Brother, Junior Brother Hu only has a million pills. Will there be any danger if we do this? Ma Yuan had even suppressed his voice to an extremely low pitch, so the two of them had their own plans and plans. To be able to maintain the operation of such a huge Spell Formation, it should be enough for us to accumulate a million Spiritual Stone. replied. As a senior brother who had entered the Sect two years ago, he knew all about this matter. That''s good, for the sake of these several hundred thousand Spiritual Stone, taking a risk is worth it. Ma Yuan was still comforting himself. We are disciples of Yuan Sect, so we need to have the imposing manner of the number one sect in the world. Even if we make a mistake, our Qing Xuan Sect would not dare to do anything. Since he dared to scheme against him, Zhang Kang''s guts was enough to sustain him. Furthermore, he, an ordinary inner disciple, was even able to ignore Qing Xuan Sect like this. Chen Fan''s earlier judgement was not wrong. I really didn''t expect that Gu Feng, that old man, would be able to give us two juniors a chance to become rich just when he was about to arrive. Hearing that, Ma Yuan was relieved. In any case, he was using Hu Mu''s name and trying to get more Spiritual Stone s. If these two people knew that the person in front of them was Master Gu, whom they had been respectful to for a long time, their jaws would have dropped from shock. With his own strength, at the same time, stirring up all of the Yuan Sect, Chen Fan could be considered the first person, even those Rogue Cultivator had never succeeded. They would either face him head on with Yuan Sect or use some underhanded method to sneak attack him. Of course, the end result would always be them being killed in the opposite direction. Only, because of what Chen Fan had done, not only did it humiliate all of the Yuan Sect''s disciples and upper echelons, it also caused them to treat the bandits with respect, and even cost the Third Elder''s accumulation of hundreds of years. How about this, quickly hand over the Spiritual Stone, we don''t have the effort to wait! Zhang Kang raised his voice a few times, sounding very impatient. It''s not impossible, but I have a condition. Since these Spiritual Stone are''s compensation, then I''ll have to make them call me a beauty. As Chen Fan thought about Hu Mu''s clear call, even he felt that he was somewhat abnormal, perhaps it was the result of him being chased for such a long period of time. No matter what, I am still a Guardian of the Qing Xuan Sect, and my seniority is much higher than yours. Taking away so many Spiritual Stone for no reason, isn''t that a bit too disgraceful? Chen Fan knew this much better than Ma Yuan and Yue Shuang. In terms of being cunning, was far worse. Bastard, you''re courting death! Even now, how could he still not hear the former''s hidden message? She didn''t want to pay any Spiritual Stone s as compensation, so Zhang Kang''s face instantly darkened. C133 If you refuse a toast and don''t eat a forfeit, then don''t blame me for being merciless! Don''t waste time talking to him, beat him up first, then force him to spit out the Spiritual Stone, hmph! The two of them shouted coldly again and again as their battle intent surged. They charged straight at Chen Fan, with the intent to suppress him in one go. it just so happens that I can experience the high skills of a Yuan Sect disciple. Chen Fan wasn''t angry at all, he was just being chased around the world by Yuan Sect Protector. He thought about how he could take back the interest on these two guys. This was where Zhi Zun was so domineering. He had obviously emptied the Third Elder''s entire family treasury, and even created such a huge scandal, but Chen Fan just thought that he had suffered a loss. This was the Demon Sealing Hall that sealed the Heavenly Dao Fragment. If it weren''t for the many trump cards in his possession, it was unknown whether he would still be able to stand here safe and sound. Zhang Kang floated in midair, looking like a ghost, while Ma Yuan gave his support from underground, both of them returning to their peak condition. Their auras intertwined and a faint arc formed to form a defensive barrier. However, there were also sharp blades protruding out, making them look like wolf-tooth clubs. It was clear that their coordination was already high, it was definitely not a temporary exercise or some clever coordination, both offense and defense, this was also used to guard against Chen Fan''s attack. Zhang Kang was the first to make a move. Separated by a distance of over a hundred meters, both of his arms suddenly became longer, bent into the shape of an eagle''s claws, and directly flew towards Chen Fan. All of them had a silvery white hue, and there seemed to be lightning surrounding them, flashing abnormally. Seems like it was true that Zhang Kang was the leader, since he had entered the sect two years ago, his cultivation was much deeper than Ma Yuan''s. Regarding this, not only did Chen Fan have no intention to retreat, he even revealed a smile. A few days ago, he had just passed through the heavenly tribulation, so he was extremely familiar with this kind of aura. Three Saint Force suddenly condensed, and it didn''t take much time to destroy the claw. It was completely surrounded and didn''t even have the chance to splash around. It had already been completely used up. Hmph, if I don''t teach you a lesson, you really won''t put my Yuan Sect in your eyes anymore! Zhang Kang bellowed as he received the supply of Spiritual Energy s from the ground. He expanded the size of the eagle claws again, and they were now more than three meters wide. The half of the sky he was standing on was shrouded by a terrifying pressure. The air was distorted, and strands of chaotic currents roiled about, as if the area around him was about to collapse at any moment. Come on, I''ve been preparing this for a long time. It''s worth saving two million Spiritual Stone. Chen Fan replied absentmindedly, but in reality, he had other plans in mind. Closing his five fingers together, Zhang Kang revealed a hint of hostility, and at the same time, fused them together into an eagle claw that was several tens of meters large. It enveloped half of the sky and even covered up the sun. In addition, under the effects of the shadow, strands of purple light flashed past. It was as if the dark clouds had brought the Lightning Calamity down once again. Just this scene alone was enough to scare people. Ka-cha! * With a wave of its eagle claws, its movement was extremely fast, bringing about a large amount of chaos and lightning energy, as it chopped down at Chen Fan with all its might. In regards to this, Zhang Kang''s expression did not change at all. He very indifferently strolled out, took a few steps in the air, and slowly walked towards the congregated eagle claws. If one were to speak of any physical movements, all one had to do was to swing out a round fist. From the looks of it, one was planning to use his bare fist to launch an attack. Hmph hmph, isn''t this kid too overconfident? Even if he was in his territory, he wouldn''t be able to use his bare physical body to block the Flying Roc Claw. Maybe it''s because we''ve never fought such an intense battle with our Yuan Sect disciples before, and we were scared silly first. Ma Yuan and Yue Yang were both dismissive. Originally, when they saw Chen Fan''s performance, they thought that he had some kind of trump card up his sleeves. However, normal people would not be able to use such a method to deal with the attacks of the Spiritual Energy, and they would even be able to block the attacks of the Spiritual Energy with their bodies, and there were even flashes of lightning, so even if it was a normal treasure, it might not be able to withstand it. Rumble rumble rumble! A muffled sound rang out, and the result exceeded their expectations. Not only was Chen Fan not pushed back, but their flying roc claws had begun to vibrate continuously, and even their majestic bodies were trembling. They subconsciously instilled more pure Spiritual Energy s into the Flying Roc Claw, but that did not change anything. It had always been Chen Fan''s style of fighting. When he was fighting against the Roc''s Claws alone, his five feet body was not much in comparison to the huge fellow in front of him. But even with such a clear contrast, the Flying Roc''s claws were on the verge of collapsing. It was as if a three year old child was pushing and turning the man over and over. The scene was once very shocking. Before Zhang Kang could react, Chen Fan''s fist had already pierced through the void and appeared in front of him. The body that was still in front of the Roc''s claws started to dissipate. However, it was Chen Fan who used his fastest speed to deceive Zhang Kang. A punch heavily landed on the latter''s back, instantly spreading throughout his internal organs. Flying Roc Claw was obviously still retreating. What kind of accident happened here? Chen Fan was so shocked that his jaw almost fell to the ground, and he couldn''t believe his own eyes. However, the pain that he felt from his body told him clearly that he had indeed been injured. At his level, how could he understand the profoundness of the Three Saint Force? At most, he would only be able to passively experience it for a bit, and even if Chen Fan had already left his original place, there would still not be any huge aftershocks. Leaving a trail of blood blossoming in the air, Zhang Kang was heavily thrown out. Facing the powerful and overbearing brute force attack, he had no strength to retaliate. This was originally Chen Fan''s advantage. Adding to the fact that he had made a breakthrough during this period of time, a fist strike with a force of at least ten thousand kilograms. Even a Core Formation Stage expert like Nangong Xuan might not necessarily be able to withstand it. At the same time, like an arrow that had just left the bow, Chen Fan''s entire body shot out, heading straight for Ma Yuan. Even Zhang Kang was not a match for this brat, what kind of resistance could he make? Furthermore, the speed at which he ran was so fast that it left people speechless. But in the end, he still brushed past Chen Fan''s shoulders. With just a slight touch of his fingertips, half of''s shoulder fell off. Chen Fan who was familiar with the structure of the human body, how could it be that only his simple brute force was left. As long as he found the opportunity, his opponent''s acupuncture points would also be used. How was this possible? He was only an ordinary disciple of the Qing Xuan Sect, how could he have such a strong fleshly body?! Zhang Kang barely managed to avoid a new round of attack. With an extremely astonished expression on his face, a three foot long blade suddenly appeared in his hand. He had to admit that he had missed Chen Fan''s strength, but he still believed that it was certain that he would win. In front of the Yuan Sect disciples, the younger generation of the other sects and clans could only be a foil to him. Looks like it''s time for me to correct you. No matter what, the title of this Reverend was personally bestowed to me by the Sect Leader, so don''t compare me with those other young disciples. Chen Fan almost habitually blurted out these words. He did not provoke Zhang Kang, and only relied on the Spiritual Energy in his body to deal with the latter''s anger. The same goes for the two of you. You two have to treat this battle as this senior''s sparring session, with a grateful attitude ¡­ Before Chen Fan could even finish his chattering, the Sword Intent had already shot another palm print at him. Without any hesitation, it struck towards Chen Fan. He did not need to consider how much damage this Lex Sabre would do to him, since he could quickly recover anyway. If he could touch the sword body directly, it would be even more convenient. "Whiz!" "Whiz!" "Whiz!" Zhang Kang used the Unparalleled Sword Art once again, his attainment in this dao was not shallow, the powerful Gengjin Qi surged, and compared to his battle intent, it was even stronger. This guy had already made up his mind. From a distance, he would attack indirectly, avoiding contact with Chen Fan''s body. Similarly, he could create a sensation. The scene in front of him was in a complete mess, seeing Chen Fan''s annoyed state of mind, he decided to just use the Myriad Manifestation Saint Technique. They summoned enough Spiritual Energy s to rival the Flying Roc Claw. With the cover of this vast ocean, he had successfully made his way to the sword''s body. His hands were like iron pincers, firmly clamped in the center of his palms. Brat, just die! Zhang Kang, who thought that he had succeeded in his scheme, bellowed. He was waiting for this moment, to attract Chen Fan over, and the few beads on the sword hilt suddenly released a destructive force. In order to suppress Chen Fan, he had gone all out. Although it looked like an ordinary sword, it was actually a forbidden weapon that could self-destruct at a critical moment to obtain a powerful attack. How dare you display such insignificant skills in front of me? After coldly laughing twice, Chen Fan didn''t have the ability to predict the thoughts of others, but even if he had seen the abnormality of those precious beads, he still reacted in time and was fooled, allowing him to react in time. He raised his hand and flung out the sword. It seemed casual, but it added seventy to eighty percent of his strength. The firm space was twisted and it was impossible to block. Bang! A loud sound was heard. The few beads and fragments of the sword scattered in all directions. Everything within a radius of one hundred zhang was instantly emptied out. Zhang Kang was also very quick-witted, he had dodged in advance and was not affected by the sword, it was just that there was a deep hole in the ground that was a few feet deep. You! Zhang Kang was dumbfounded once again. He did not expect this outcome, and an indescribable rage rose in his heart. Just like that, he lost a forbidden weapon that was extremely powerful. His black hair moved despite the absence of wind, and he quickly grabbed the new Seal in his hands as a profound and obscure dao aura circulated around. When the dog panicked, it still jumped off the wall. This Yuan Sect disciple being forced to be so ruthless was also very scary, to actually hit his own chest, immediately causing a large part of him to cave in. C134 Senior brother, this will be very dangerous. Ma Yuan wanted to advise his off and was able to see through his intentions. I can''t allow you to act so shamelessly. If you hurt yourself, what will happen when I go back and complain? I can''t take the blame for this. Chen Fan joked with his in all seriousness. Ah! Hearing this, Zhang Kang was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. He completely ignored Ma Yuan, and countless strange Talisman s quickly flashed, as large spirit seals formed outline, and all of them were formed from balls of light. Using his fingertips, he imbued them with some of the essence of the technique. With just this, he drained most of the cultivation base of the three master teachers from their bodies. At the same time, a heavy pressure continued to spread. Today, it was only directed at Chen Fan alone, with the most important point being the weight of his flesh. It was as if he was carrying two huge mountains on his shoulders at the same time. Void Cloud Seal! Ma Yuan cried out in alarm. It was even stronger than the Flying Paw from before, and could be considered as the reason, because it was the highest level technique among the inner sect disciples. It looked like a simple Spirit Emblem, square and heavy like a brick. However, those Talisman still existed and would turn into a formless net that could swallow Chen Fan''s Spiritual Energy without him realizing. I would actually like to see the reaction of your Sect Leader s after they personally kill your Qing Xuan Sect. Zhang Kang clearly revealed a dense killing intent. From the start, he only wanted to beat Chen Fan up, and also wanted to take away the millions of Spiritual Stone, but now, he already wished that he could grind Chen Fan''s bones and scatter his ashes. As his voice faded away, the Spiritual Seal suddenly descended. It borrowed the power of the void to levitate in every corner. Only Chen Fan could still hold on. If it was anyone else, whether or not they could still stand was another question. Was this the true strength of the inner sect disciples in the Yuan Sect? Indeed, it was much higher than the average level of the Qing Xuan Sect younger generation. Considering that the former had come into contact with even more cultivation resources than the declining Qing Xuan Sect, as well as the series of increases in cultivation technique Spiritual Pill s, divine weapons, and the like, his overall battle power would probably not be overrated in the ranking of the entire Cultivation Realm. However, from Chen Fan''s point of view, the most important thing was still the issue of attitude. Zhang Kang and the others were so confident and thick-skinned, even he was a little envious of them. It was entirely because of the strong enough Sect supporting them from behind that they didn''t seem to have anything to do with their cultivation progress, but in reality, they could bring them endless benefits, allowing them to be in high spirits at all times. On the other hand, Qing Xuan Sect gave off a deathly heavy feeling. When the two were compared, it was obvious who was stronger, and he was completely crushed. Zhang Kang, do you want to fly? When the huge seal had not landed yet and was still accumulating energy, Chen Fan suddenly asked that question. Eh? Zhang Kang and Luo Hua City Mistress were stunned, but they were immediately filled with regret, why would they bother with this crazy man who had lost his mind? Regardless of whether you want it or not, I will fulfill your wish today. Although Chen Fan had always been calm and collected, he had never underestimated his opponent. In terms of tone, he had to treat his opponent with contempt and focus on his actions. At the same time as making the enemy relax his guard, he would also leave himself some leeway to unleash his deathblow. With a bit of buffer, even a Core Formation Stage cultivator would be able to contend with an Aurous Core stage cultivator. It was a pity that such a simple reasoning was something that not even many Senior Expert knew, let alone the two Yuan Sect disciples in front of him who had a sense of innate superiority. From the moment they had entered the Sect, they had thought themselves to be superior to others, and their talent was not outstanding either. This also meant that in the future, they would not have too high of an achievement. Both of his hands slowly swiped the air, causing a grave expression to surface on Chen Fan''s face. He forcefully fused the Formation Pattern s and the Three Saint Force from his body together. As expected, an unprecedented change had occurred. The surrounding air quickly surged, and even the entire region had been squeezed dry. The pure Spiritual Energy were also quickly gathering. Very quickly, two vortexes that emitted a sharp aura appeared above the battlefield. They were formed from the outlines of Formation Pattern s, but they used the power of the Three Saints as their main body. The wind howled as the two swirls rapidly spun. At the same time, there were traces of spatial fragments rapidly flowing on the surface of the spirals, on which Chen Fan had placed great hope. Rumble rumble rumble! Under his personal movement, he pushed the two spirals towards Ma Yuan and Zhang Kang''s side, leaving long cracks along the way. As for the turbulence within, it was carried away. After moving just a few dozen feet, this man-made storm had already expanded to the size of a room. A vicious destructive aura wantonly spread out, causing one to be unable to stop trembling. Originally, Zhang Kang could still maintain his composure, it was not like he had never seen this kind of formation before. He thought that he would be able to handle the seal after paying a huge price. But as the distance between them shortened, Zhang Kang could no longer hold up. He could even clearly hear the sound of divine weapons clashing, coming from that vortex. It should have been transformed from the power of the Three Saints. However, Zhang Kang was not sure what this thing was, and thought that he would have to face the siege of hundreds and thousands of daggers. Below, Ma Yuan was even more unbearable. Both of his legs were trembling so much that he could barely stand, unable to withstand the immense pressure that suddenly fell upon him. It was easy to be distracted by a two-way battle, maybe Zhang Kang had some idea of taking advantage of the situation to sneak in. As an old monster with ten thousand years of battle experience, Chen Fan would not fall for this trap. The best way was to break them all one by one, and also to pick the weak persimmon to pinch. Very clearly, Ma Yuan, who was in the subordinate position, wanted to get out first. Even though this seal was incomparably majestic, Chen Fan still forcefully broke through the shackles of the void network and stood at the top of it. Right at this moment, the surging energy that had erupted once again, with him at the center, swept across an area of three kilometers in an instant. Not only did it expand, it also engulfed Zhang Kang within. Both of his hands moved at the same time as he released a long chain. Along the way, he used this vast sea Spiritual Energy as a supplement and automatically climbed around that huge seal, like maggots attached to the bones. As soon as it was wrapped up, it could no longer be peeled off. It was almost greedily corroding. Once this terrifying devil was released, it was impossible to retract it. The legendary divine swords were also in the same state. Once unsheathed, one would definitely be willing to fight to the death. However, the three sacred arts had coincidentally met an opponent that was equal to Luo Feng. They absolutely had to devour him to their heart''s content. Looking at the figure flying in the air, it was like a kite with its string cut. It landed leisurely on the ground and carved out a human shaped hole, raising dust everywhere. If I tell you to fly, then you have to fly. Chen Fan clapped his hands, concentrating on watching the show. Just as the Three Sacred Arts and the Void Cloud Seal clashed multiple times, a huge uproar occurred on both sides due to the Pingquan Peak. The Spiritual Energy s all over the sky were boiling as an indescribably terrifying aura spread out. Chaotic flows were everywhere, chaotic beyond compare, and there were even layers upon layers of spatial fragments mixed in. From afar, the square spirit seal was still trembling non-stop. He seemed to have the advantage. However, Chen Fan''s Three Saint Force was all around him and he had already split out dozens of chains that were densely packed on the surface, consuming a large amount of Spiritual Energy s at all times. At this time, the person who had called him out was lying on the ground, half-dead. He didn''t have any more energy left, and could only watch as the result of his defeat appeared. The Spirit Emblem that Zhang Kang had placed his hopes on completely failed, just like how the Flying Paw had disappeared without a trace, he did not even have a chance to save them. Chen Fan''s expression was as confident as ever. Seeing the two golden rays of light that his eyes were emitting, Zhang Kang''s heart actually palpitated a little. It''s over, it''s over. I really kicked an iron plate today. Ma Yuan muttered to himself in panic. He was caught unawares by the sudden loss. Furthermore, the combat power that Chen Fan had displayed was just too terrifying, even if the two of them were to join forces, they would still not be able to fight him. I will remember today''s battle. Zhang Kang was very straightforward, seeing that he could not win, he took the chance to take back all of his might and return to the surface. After the battle ended, Chen Fan did not pursue them anymore and stood at the side of the hall as well. When would he be able to learn a little of Zhang Kang''s essence? Even if he were to be defeated, he would be able to maintain his arrogant and habitual attitude. It seemed like he did not intend to give in at all, as if Chen Fan had lost. What made him even more flabbergasted was that after that brat finished speaking, he only slightly adjusted the circulation of the Spiritual Energy and was actually about to leave. He had never seen such a calm and steady defeat before. What, you came as you please, and left as you please, what kind of place do you take my Pingquan Peak to be? Chen Fan changed the Formation Pattern into a thick and heavy wall and blocked the way to the mountain gate. What else do you want?! The complexions of the two of them were unsightly to the extreme, and it was only after a long while did they finally manage to catch their breath. Just according to your previous offer, leave two million Spiritual Stone here. You can leave this place and leave the Qing Xuan Sect, or else, I can have someone carry you all to the Yuan Sect. This was a bamboo stick that had been delivered to his doorstep. He had been tricked by Chen Fan from the moment this fellow mentioned the word Spiritual Stone. Heh, then come and try. I really don''t believe that a mere Qing Xuan Sect would dare to be so cruel to us. Zhang Kang revealed a cold smile, at this point, there was nothing left to hide, the identity of a Yuan Sect disciple was his best shield. C135 Not just anyone could easily enter the top sect, one hundred or two hundred out of the ten thousand young cultivators was already considered not bad, and Zhang Kang was one of the lucky ones. He had been enjoying this bonus until now, and no matter where he went, he would be praised and admired. Who would dare to go against him? You brat, you really have the guts. Don''t think that you can do whatever you want just by luck. In this world, not everyone can be so arrogant. That''s right, your words are very true, I have to give you a Like, and another two hundred thousand Spiritual Stone. Chen Fan clapped his hands and laughed, yet again, it was a huge sum of money as light as a feather. It passed through his mouth and entered Zhang Kang''s ears. Before I act arrogantly, neither of you are qualified. was still more calm and composed. He did indeed have the qualifications to be in the three parts of the Pingquan Peak, and was waiting for the two guys on the other side to make a decision. Zhang Kang was so angry that the roots of his teeth were itching for action. Seeing that the brat did not make any moves, he directly grabbed Ma Yuan''s shoulders and turned to leave. Stop! Without my permission, it is impossible for the two of you to walk out of the Pingquan Peak, so don''t try to challenge this reverend''s bottom line. Bang! A gust of wind blew over, quickly forming a familiar whirlpool. The whirlpool was about a foot in size, and its rotation speed was faster than before. As it circled around the two of them, any movement would be swept up into the whirlpool. Senior Zhang... Ma Yuan''s heart was a little wild, and he subconsciously pulled at the corner of Zhang Kang''s clothes. Go! Ignore him! Murderous, Zhang Kang believed that there must be other Qing Xuan Sect Protectors spying on him from the shadows, so he wouldn''t be fooled by this madman. After that, these two guys had a taste of the bitter fruit. It was very bitter, very bitter, and filled with unbearable pain. Since he had realized the premise of this madman, Zhang Kang should not still be living with illusions. The Spiritual Peak he was in had Spell Formation installed, so forget about the elders, even if the Sect Leader s wanted to come over, it would still take some effort. And at this time, the latter had the confidence to torture him to the point where he didn''t look like a human being at all. The whirlpool instantly wrapped them up before being sliced by daggers from all directions. In an instant, their entire bodies were covered in bloody wounds. The wounds turned outwards, making them look extremely sinister. And the method Chen Fan had used was just right and proper. They had experienced the most extreme pain, yet, their lives had not been truly harmed. If a Yuan Sect disciple really died here, it would also be a problem for him. Ah! Two consecutive miserable cries echoed in the air above the Spiritual Peak, but there was no movement within a three hundred meter radius. Everyone''s cries were blocked by the Spell Formation. Chen Fan, you bastard, I will kill you! I am an inner disciple of the Yuan Sect, and I represent the dignity of a First Sect. You are bringing about a disaster for the Qing Xuan Sect! Even at this time, Zhang Kang was still spouting vicious words. Chen Fan did not pay attention to him. With a flip of his palm, the amount of wind blades mixed within the whirlpool doubled. At the same time, they entered Zhang Kang''s body. Since this brat claimed that he was Yuan Sect, Chen Fan kindly destroyed this little face. A few strands of sharp aura swept down, and even touched his lower jaw. As long as he had a slight thought, he would be able to break off the head of the former. Of course, right now, the main thing was to threaten him, so there was no need to cause such a ruckus. Ka-cha! * The sound of bones shattering could clearly be heard in Ma Yuan''s mind. It was still as painful as before, and it did not harm his life, causing his entire body to become numb in an instant. I was wrong, I was wrong, I beg Alien Minister Chen to spare me! Just as expected, Ma Yuan was the first one to not be able to hold on, both of his legs went soft on the ground, he was like a pile of mud, muttering to himself, not knowing if he was still conscious or not. One million Spiritual Stone, this is your account. Just how many are you able to take out right now, put them all here, and then swear a Dao oath. Chen Fan skillfully took out two Jade Chip s. As long as Ma Yuan put the Spiritual Consciousness in, and added a few drops of the Blood Essence, there would be an additional mysterious power supporting it. If he broke this promise, he would definitely suffer some backlash and even his future dao path would be affected. Although there were some elders with deep cultivation that could eliminate this layer of oath, and the experts within the Yuan Sect were as numerous as the clouds, Chen Fan did not think that he would be able to get rid of them with just this little Spiritual Stone. Hearing this, as if he was pardoned from a dream, Ma Yuan anxiously took the Storage Bag s from his waist. A light flashed and they quickly tidied up the floor. Casually sweeping a glance, Chen Fan was able to deduce that there were around 300,000 Spiritual Stone or so, it seemed that this fellow''s wealth was not bad. Thank you, Alien Minister Chen, for sparing my life, I will definitely send the rest to you as soon as possible ¡­ The wind blades surrounding Ma Yuan gradually faded but he still remained sprawled on the ground as he begged for mercy. The bones in his knees were about to be shattered, how could he still stand? Seeing that you admit your mistake well, I''ll give you half a month of grace. Chen Fan very generously waved her hand, a gentle light once again enveloped Ma Yuan. This was the Spiritual Being that she had obtained from the Third Elder, but it had now been transformed into a living being. In just a few breaths, Ma Yuan''s mental state had eased up by quite a bit. At least, the bloody holes on his body''s surface were blocked, and did not worsen further, as he forcefully held on. I already said that you all have to thank me. Where else would I be able to obtain the favor of an expert like you? Chen Fan was elated to enjoy the feeling of being in control of everything. He absentmindedly went back to when he was once the master of the heaven and earth, but the two trash in front of him could not compare to the power of heaven and earth. You''re right, thank you very much. Ma Yuan cupped his hands with a mournful look on his face. Seeing the former walk down the Spiritual Peak with a trembling body, Zhang Kang''s face immediately turned deathly pale. He should have long predicted this, and perhaps less suffering. Alien Minister Chen, I know I was wrong, it was me who was blind and could not recognize Mt. Tai, and disturbed you from your cultivation here, please forgive me. Zhang Kang''s tone sounded extremely bitter. Originally, he had planned well and thought that he would be able to profit from this, by a million Spiritual Stone. Now that he was going to bet on it, he could only take out the four hundred thousand Spiritual Stone s that he had brought with him. Even with his status as an inner court disciple, wanting to raise such an astronomical sum of money was not an easy matter, and to him, it cost him half his life. C136 It had to be known that the Yuan Sect only provided a monthly allowance of a few thousand Spiritual Stone for each inner disciple. Even if it was with the aid of a secret grey commission, it would still take Zhang Kang more than ten years of time to fill in the gaps. What did you say? I''m too old to hear clearly. Chen Fan covered his head in exaggeration, almost saying something like "I''m blind". I was wrong! You shouldn''t have contradicted me, you old man have a lot of people, just treat me like a piece of shit and let me go! A wave of blood energy from nowhere rushed to Zhang Kang''s head and he almost roared out, but he still treated Chen Fan with respect and seemed to be giving up on himself. He had never been forced by someone like this before. He had completely lost control of his psychological defenses, and would probably feel ashamed for a long time to come. However, he had brought this upon himself, so he couldn''t blame anyone else. Hm, not bad. Chen Fan was clearly in his early twenties right now, but his words were filled with old age, causing people to become even more angry. I will give you a week''s time to hand over the remaining Spiritual Stone. If you dare to delay them for even an hour, you have to bear the consequences. In view of this brat''s vile attitude, Chen Fan immediately shortened it by one fold and had no intention of using his life force to treat his injuries. Of course, it would be the best if they could snatch some of his anger with their own hands. This had already become a routine for Chen Fan, and he had unknowingly allowed his opponent to become the source of his power. Seven days? Zhang Kang was a little surprised, how could he possibly gather all those Spiritual Stone, he was probably short of over a hundred thousand in a day. Five days. Chen Fan said indifferently, his tone carried an unquestionable dignity. Alright, then three days, no less. Zhang Kang felt very bitter in his heart. Originally, such a heavy burden was equivalent to being sold off, but if he continued to pester them, he was afraid that he would even donate his body. He silently cut his palm and dripped a few drops of fresh blood, then placed the Jade Chip in front of Chen Fan and limped his way out. It could be seen that his cultivation was much deeper than the former. After enduring the wind blades for a long time, he still had the ability to run. After the two of them left, only then did Chen Fan realize that the great protective magical formation had suffered some minor injuries, and that it had been affected by the battle just now. In such an intense battle, if there wasn''t the protection of the Formation Pattern, even half of his Spiritual Peak would have been destroyed. Heh, I don''t want much. If I knew earlier, I would have extorted more. Chen Fan was a little regretful, but it was too late to chase after them now. After calculating everything, two million Spiritual Stone s should be enough to make a small profit, but he did not know how much it would take to repair the Spell Formation. Your previous actions were a bit too rash, so you should have gone to the Martial Arts Practice Grounds. Then, you could have bet on the resentment of the other disciples ¡­ Before Deer God had even finished speaking, Chen Fan had already understood his intentions. Without a doubt, with the addition of two Yuan Sect disciples, he would definitely be able to catch a lot of big fish. No matter what, it was too late. He could only wait until the next time. The Deer God sighed, the two fellows did not give him any time to think, they started to attack ferociously, and did not allow him any time to go to the training grounds. Get ready to use all your belongings. If you take advantage of this land, there might be more people looking for trouble with you right away. Deer God kindly reminded him that it was rare for him not to dupe anything else. Oh, that makes sense. I have to hurry. If those two really go and complain, that would be bad. Although a man must have the courage to do what he wants, Chen Fan didn''t have enough strength to continue. If the Third Elder really was called over, then the possibility of the latter venting his anger here might not be ruled out, and it would be a great disaster for Chen Fan. Following that, he used another half a day to complete the entire formation. After such a huge incident, Protector Liu and the rest would definitely not sit idly by and do nothing. Without the slightest bit of stinginess, he used all of the Third Elder''s treasury, and chose all sorts of suitable Spiritual Being from within to replace the ordinary Spiritual Stone at the most crucial points within the Spell Formation. Just like the Cultivator''s path, only if the foundation was solid enough, would there be more room for growth. Using the Spiritual Stone as a source of energy was only the best way. Back then, it was already very good that Chen Fan was able to take out these things. Now that he had such a strong family background, he had to do his best to achieve perfection. With the rare Spiritual Being as the base, this Spell Formation had been linked as a whole. Whether it was defense or attack power, both had increased sharply, and could even form their own system, maintaining it for at least a hundred years. It was not an exaggeration to say that after Chen Fan used his full strength to protect the mountain range formation, he could still barely endure a full-powered strike from an elder-level expert. After doing all this, he finally had time to rest, lazily lying on the chair, waiting for the time to teach Zhao Xu a lesson. The process of preparation had been interrupted by Zhang Kang. He closed his eyes and could already guess what kind of discussion was going on outside. What? Chen Fan is back? I didn''t hear wrong, did I? That troublemaker actually had the guts to come back? Who wouldn''t? They beat up the Yuan Sect disciples on the first day they arrived. Now, they are sure to be targeted again. He was just worrying that he would not have an excuse to attack other forces. Could it be that this brat did not have any nerves, and did not know that if he did this, he would drag the entire Qing Xuan Sect into the abyss? As expected, when the news of the battle at the Pingquan Peak spread, it caused the entire Travelling Gate to shake, and even more heated discussions broke out than the disturbance at the Yuan Sect earlier. Logically speaking, this should be a good thing. A disciple of Yuan Sect had come to provoke him, yet was beaten back by Chen Fan. Furthermore, he lost very miserably. However, there was actually a pair of big hands that was unknowingly adding fuel to the fire. It increased the negative impact of this matter to the extreme, forcefully changing the views of the disciples as they declined. They all thought that Chen Fan was too reckless, and had confirmed his title of being a troublemaker. They were even worried that he would disappoint their Yuan Sect, and took the opportunity to attack their Qing Xuan Sect. In just two short days, the number of disciples who had applied to go out to train had suddenly increased. Their passion for cultivation was fake, and they wanted to seek refuge in the Wilderness. It was just for the sake of the enmity between the two disciples, there was simply no need to raise it to the Sect level. Moreover, the Yuan Sect had just suffered the humiliation of a crisis, so now was not the time to make a big move. In the Qing Xuan Sect that had changed, almost no one could fully comprehend this simple logic. There were even some strong protectors who came out personally to express their worry. The latter completely ignored their desire, causing a group of mediocre people to disturb themselves, so it would be better for them to take a nap if they had the time. C137 In the blink of an eye, two days had passed. The storm between Chen Fan and Ma Yuan continued to ferment, and compared to the worry of the other disciples, the Pingquan Peak was much calmer. Protector Qin and Zhao Xu had long since gotten used to it. After knowing that they had followed Chen Fan back from the Hua Ding Sect, they had performed this kind of act at least three or four times, and they had all witnessed it with their own eyes. No matter how unimaginable the scene was, if there were two suns in the sky, they would initially need to panic and be curious. However, if he could see it every day, he wouldn''t have that kind of thought. As time passed, it could be said that within the range of the Qingquan Sect, the master and disciple duo would not easily cause waves, and it would also indirectly benefit their mental states of mind. At this moment, Chen Fan was carrying out a baptism for the two of them in the great hall of Pingquan Peak, but he had to remind them beforehand. Zhao Xu, your pressure on your cultivation in this period of time is a little too intense. Chen Fan had this feeling ever since he first laid eyes on this kid. When he was heading to the Yuan Sect, Zhao Xu had already reached the Fifth Transformation of the Foundation Establishment Stage, and it was even at the Perfection Stage. Isn''t this learning from you? Only by building a solid foundation will the future be able to go even further. Zhao Xu scratched his head and laughed. He had seen what it meant to be a real freak from Chen Fan. He had just arrived at the Qingquan Sect five months ago, and the aura he emitted was that of a Mortal Realm warrior. Not long after, especially after reaching the Hua Ding Sect, he found that this Foundation Establishment Cultivator was somewhat unable to see through Chen Fan. If he were to fight alone, Zhao Xu believed that he could withstand the latter ten rounds. Then, it would become unknown later on, and he himself did not know what kind of method he would use to fall to the ground. It would have to be a certain degree of speed, and now was the time to release it. Chen Fan said lightly. Imitating him all the time was not a good thing either. How could Zhao Xu know that he still had Deer God in his mind, let alone the tens of thousands of years worth of memories he had. However, he was still unable to tell the truth to Zhao Xu. Fortunately, he had helped him break through two more stages today. Alien Minister Chen, I feel that I have clearly touched that barrier, but I can''t go up no matter what. Furthermore, there are times when the Spiritual Energy''s circulation is abnormal, what is going on? The Protector Qin at the side couldn''t help but ask. At his level, when one had already passed the basic stage long ago, one naturally had to focus on one''s realm. Originally, he thought that he would be able to advance into the Golden Core Formation in one go with Chen Fan''s help and the help of a lot of external forces. This is because you have swallowed Spiritual Being too many times, and you can''t do anything about it. He probed out a Spiritual Consciousness and entered Protector Qin''s body. After walking for half a circle along the blood vessels, Chen Fan understood the crux of the problem, only that the latter was a little confused. On the whole, they were stable, and from time to time they would explode. This was something that could be done, for example, in Zhao Xu''s situation. There was no need to make any special guesses, Chen Fan could also guess Protector Qin''s true intentions. He had been quiet for most of his life, and because of great difficulty, he finally had a chance to make a public appearance within the Sect. He naturally wanted to do his best to raise his cultivation level and strengthen his own strength. This way, he would have more authority. Unfortunately, things always went against his wishes. As for the reason why Spiritual Energy s can''t flow smoothly, it''s because your meridians have not been completely cleared. It looks like it''s already very wide, but you still can''t endure the crazy rush of so many Spiritual Being. After some explanations, when Protector Qin recalled the cultivation process during this period of time, he truly used too many Spiritual Being s, and almost half of the reserves he had in his possession was gone. So how do I make up for it now? After a series of waves, Protector Qin, the Golden Core Stage Cultivator, had already begun to admire Chen Fan from the bottom of his heart, and the difficulty in cultivation was inclined to listen to the latter''s suggestions. Raising the strength of my physical body is fine, but I have my own ways of doing so since I might have to go through some pain during this process. Chen Fan muttered to himself for a bit. Although he would not give Protector Qin the ability to use the heavenly tribulation, ordinary people would not be able to bear the torment. Then I will have to thank Alien Minister Chen. Protector Qin cupped his hands. With Chen Fan''s words, he knew that he could definitely break through another realm. Let''s talk about your problem again, let go of all your worries, and revolve the Spiritual Energy to its limits, let me see where the real problem is going to be. Chen Fan stared at Zhao Xu, the increase in his cultivation was not something he could recklessly do. If the energy suppressed by this guy could only sustain him for two steps, then if he rashly pushed his way up, there might be a negative outcome. Hmm. Zhao Xu nodded his head, then activated all of the cultivation techniques he had cultivated, causing a strange pressure to envelop the entire hall. It was completely hidden in the depths of the void, invisible to the naked eye and untouchable to the fingers, yet also real. From a certain perspective, the Cultivator could be considered a mini version of this domain. At this time, Zhao Xu''s entire body was covered with threads of godly aura, and a few dozen meridians flowed with Spiritual Energy, making him look like a dazzling little stove. Alright, give me four hours, and I''ll be able to help you reach the Foundation Establishment Stage Six Transformation. These words didn''t sound like it, and should have come from Chen Fan''s mouth. After all, in front of the other two people, his cultivation was unjustifiable. It was as though a three year old child was explaining the essence of the boxing style to the two brawny men. The latter was listening with relish and was engrossed in it. The scene was rather strange. After going through all these preparations, Chen Fan began his baptism process again, starting from the very beginning. A few moments later, Chen Fan waved both of his hands and many profound patterns appeared in the air. An even more violent surge of energy entered Zhao Xu''s body. This was not at the Hua Ding Sect, so naturally, there was already a great protective formation on their territory that could be used. It could save Chen Fan a lot of energy. Zhao Xu, who was in front of him, had released all the mental restrictions and defenses he had on him, allowing that surge of energy to freely flow around his body. With the help of the Spiritual Consciousness, Chen Fan took the opportunity to thoroughly investigate the situation of Zhao Xu''s body, and then left a mark on the more critical acupuncture points of his internal organs. This would be more beneficial to the process of baptism. Soon after, the Three Saint Force was also channeled. Yang Zhaoxu''s entire body was wrapped within, looking like an old cocoon, with only his nose and eyes exposed. He felt incomparable joy, but there were also occasional stabs of pain. It was this kind of contradiction, who let this guy have a great time, yet with his Foundation Building Stage, he was able to come in contact with the power of the Ancient Saint. The joy in his heart and body was naturally because of the transformation of his body. How the Three Holy Arts worked in Chen Fan''s body, was transferred untouched into Zhao Xu''s body, although the level had decreased. As for the source of the pain, even without Chen Fan''s explanation, he himself could feel it, it was his meridians being expanded and stabilized continuously. This way, the total number of Spiritual Energy he could hold would definitely increase greatly. As for the important part of his dantian, it was also occupied by the Three Holy Arts and was absorbed into it. It was also supported in all directions. Parts like this that came from an innate expert should not have been affected by external forces, but this power was different. It had zero damage to the body, so it was absolutely safe. It was not the least bit exaggerated to say that even the direct disciples of the Yuan Sect would have such good fortune. It was not that their elders did not want to use it, but that they simply did not have the strength to do so. Seeing his own disciple being immersed in the ball of light, a look of envy appeared on Protector Qin''s face. This was much better than his teaching, to the point where he thought that if he had met Chen Fan earlier, he might even be able to approach the Nascent Infant Stage. The so called experiential learning process, for Zhao Xu, was to sublimate every inch of his body, and release all the energy that was hidden inside, breaking through his shackles. At this time, Chen Fan revealed his overbearing side, to be exact, it was the effect of the Three Saint Jue. The Talisman that were previously floating in mid air formed a long line and entered Zhao Xu''s mind. At this time, if one were to use a Spiritual Consciousness as an inner ornament in the outside world, they would be able to see that the hazy aura surrounding Zhao Xu''s Zifu Space was being continuously eroded. That place was a complete state of chaos. After going through the commotion caused by the Talisman of the Three Sacred Arts, it was as if an autumn wind had swept the leaves and it had personally witnessed it spreading out over a hundred meters away. Every one of the Talisman was as sharp as a dagger. With the help of the Spiritual Consciousness imprint that Chen Fan had left behind, they could do everything they could to symbolize that they were moving forward deeply, crisscrossing each other, cutting through the Primal Chaos without feeling a thing. At that moment, Zhao Xu''s mind had turned into a small sun, standing on top of the human-shaped skeleton. He could actually even expand his Zifu Space in such a smooth manner, just how many secrets did he have on his body?! Seeing this scene, Protector Qin did not know what to say. His face was filled with astonishment, even with his decades of cultivation, it seemed like he had exceeded the limit of what he could comprehend. At this time, Chen Fan no longer had the time to care about him, he was fully immersed in Zhao Xu''s mind, every single thread of Spiritual Consciousness had their own uses, he could not afford to make any mistakes, if not it would affect''s cultivation. It was not inferior to the fact that he was currently refining a batch of top-grade Spiritual Pill. At the same time, he also needed to take into account the enhancement from his Dantian. In the outermost void, there was a large net formed from lines that protected them. At the same time, it was drawing out the energy of the Spell Formation and supplying the Talisman. Protector Qin could immediately see the Spiritual Energy in Zhao Xu''s body fiercely grow, and there were no side effects at all. The only thing that Chen Fan had clearly injected into him was a Talisman, which had nothing to do with his life force or Spiritual Energy. It had all been tempered from deep within his own flesh and blood, so there was no need to talk about the burden on his body. Ka-cha! * With the passage of time, the training was also nearing the end. When Chen Fan heard the sound of something shattering, he finally heaved a sigh of relief. After going through months of deliberate suppression, Zhao Xu did not fail to live up to Chen Fan''s expectations. When the shackles in his body were broken, it instantly increased to the sixth form of Foundation Establishment. He could vaguely sense that the aura was about to go up, but it was suppressed by him. Everything had to have a certain degree of speed. As long as it was appropriate, he could not be too hasty. He stood up and raised his hand to activate the large net of patterns, cutting off the connection between Zhao Xu''s body and the aura. When all of the might and Talisman had been gathered together, Zhao Xu could not suppress the wild joy on his face. He could clearly feel his own strength increasing, at least, it was several times stronger than before he entered the great hall. Thank you, Alien Minister Chen, for your great kindness, I have nothing to repay it. In any case, from now on, no matter what the elders say, I will always stand by your side. With a "Putong" sound, Zhao Xu directly knelt down. He was so excited that he wanted to kowtow a few times, but a gentle force held him up by his knees. The legs of a man has gold beneath them. Kneeling to the heavens, kneeling to the earth. Kneeling to his parents. I can barely be counted as your master, but your head definitely cannot be lowered. Chen Fan said in a deep voice. Towards this action, he had a crazy obsession, not only would he never kneel, but he would also never stop Zhao Xu from treating him as one of his own. Okay, I''ll write it down. Zhao Xu nodded his head heavily. Until now, Chen Fan was already the person he admired the most in his life. Come on, are you ready to become a powerhouse of the Golden Core Stage? Needless to say more, he already had the support of the Spell Formation''s power, so Chen Fan did not suffer much damage, and only took action after a short rest. Those Talisman were naturally the same as always, and adding the support of the Three Saint Force, they were also of great benefit to the Golden Core Stage experts. In theory, it would be fine as long as they had not reached the realm of Ancient Saint. His five fingers came together, emitting a burst of energy that turned into incomparably sharp steel needles. This was something he had learnt from the Protector Sun, and he refined it in a deeper level. To be able to control the power of the three Saint Force deep into one''s bone marrow and all the meridians around one''s body, it was unlikely that it would be wasted on other areas. Because Protector Qin had devoured too many Spiritual Being during this period of time, his entire body was like a balloon filled with air. What Chen Fan had said and done helped him stabilize the shell, and it would be best if they could be strengthened. Furthermore, his plan was very simple as well. He had only transferred the Three Saint Force to an even more crucial point, and he did not manage to infuse Zhao Xu with any life force just now. All of these were the results of their own hard work. All Chen Fan had to do was to break the last layer of window paper and be responsible for acting as a primer. On the surface, the composition of the fighting strength of every Cultivator seemed to be the growth of the Spiritual Consciousness and realm, but many people would ignore the importance of a body. C138 In addition, the skeleton had the most important parts. There were a total of more than two hundred bones in total, and that was what supported this body. If anything happened to it, it would probably turn into a pile of rotten meat. This reasoning was actually because today''s Cultivation Realm was no longer accessible, and even the Yuan Sect elders might not agree with it. The entire body was in an extremely restless state, and it was precisely because of this that it was declining. The immediate consequence was that his level of cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds, becoming even more impetuous, thus falling into this cycle of death. Only Chen Fan''s actions were correct. No matter what, ten thousand years ago, a Ancient Saints was born, but today, there isn''t even a shadow of it. More than a thousand steel needles had pierced into the body of Protector Qin, leaving no traces at all. Furthermore, they were specially selected to attack the vital points, and there was an intense stimulation, causing his expression to instantly change. This method was not common in Cultivation Realm, but it was frequently used in the mortal countries. The acupuncture and moxibustion that the martial arts teachers spoke of continued from then on. At first glance, it would look like there was an Aged Gold aura around it, but in reality, it was nothing more than an illusion. However, the reality was beyond imagination. Ah! The pain that Protector Qin had suffered was many times worse than Zhao Xu''s, to the point where he could not help but let out low roars, as though his entire body was being burnt by flames. It was precisely because he had to endure this kind of destruction that his meridians could become even more sturdy. At that time, when he receives the massive amount of Spiritual Energy''s circulation, there would no longer be any obstructions. Relatively speaking, the situation of the Protector Qin was much easier, as long as he could endure it, then it would be fine. As for the rest, Chen Fan didn''t need to trouble himself with anything. Very soon, a red mark could be seen on the former''s skin, and veins could be seen moving underneath, as if they were about to burst. In reality, the change that happened inside of the body was even more tragic. The steel needles stabbed into the bones, completely crushing them and allowing the vitality to restore them. Just the thought of it caused one''s hair to stand on end, not to mention the fact that the Protector Qin had to face high temperatures. Even with his dozens of years of cultivation, his state of mind was about to loosen up. Hold on, just think about it. If you can make it through this, you''ll have your share of the elder position in the future. Chen Fan comforted her. He was very clear that not everyone could be like him, who easily battled against heavenly tribulation. If Protector Qin could be compared to a rock, then he would be a stable Mt. Tai. It was unknown if it was due to these words that inspired the Protector Qin, or if the Protector Qin really did improve, as his teeth clattered loudly, forcing himself to stay upright. Today, his bones had all cracked, revealing a huge area of white. The scene was cautious, but he didn''t make a sound. Just like that, they persevered for an hour. Just as Chen Fan had said, a brand-new Four Transformations Golden Dan Innate had been born. As he stretched lazily, Protector Qin felt an unprecedented amount of pressure bearing down on him. He only heard a crackling sound from within his body, and there were actually a lot of bones that fell out from his body. So far, this pair of strange master and disciple were both taken in by Chen Fan as subordinates, at least before Nascent Infant Stage, they wouldn''t give birth to any second thoughts, and could be considered as his first capital within the Qing Xuan Sect. Although he had extended the olive branch to him many times on the Hua Ding Sect, he still managed to rope in many people, from Nangong Yi and the other Protectors. However, in the end, Chen Fan never gave up this thought of using the declined Sect. After all, this was a business foundation that Cao Rui had left behind, and this special relationship could not be cut off. Whoosh! Go back tomorrow and take a good rest. There will be a terrible battle in two days. Facing Protector Qin''s strange gaze, Chen Fan did not explain any further. He only had a faint premonition that the two would be extremely grateful if they could leave. The two disciples from Yuan Sect weren''t very powerful, but in such a sensitive time, there might be a possibility that other Senior Expert s would step in to support them. Furthermore, Chen Fan had set a time limit of one week, it would only take another two days before the results would be known. He had to remind the Protector Qin first, and at that time, he had to clear the Martial Arts Practice Grounds first. What was worth mentioning was that Zhao Xu had already settled down his Pingquan Peak, and the Protector Qin also had a special cultivation abode, so if necessary, it might become Chen Fan''s second stronghold. Tsk, tsk, tsk. I''m really tired. Taking advantage of two days to adjust my condition, there''s a high chance of a fierce battle waiting for me. What a pity. Baptism for them, had indeed cost Chen Fan a lot of Spiritual Consciousness, who laid lazily on the rattan chair, those who did not know what happened would think they were paralyzed. If it really doesn''t work, it''s better to go to the Hua Ding Sect to call for help. There are countless experts there. Deer God reminded. He was very clear about the situation Chen Fan was currently facing, the easier it was to fall from the top, and there was also the occasional heavy bomb on his Yuan Sect. Just by looking at the Fifth Elder being able to cut off all of your external assistance with your Qing Xuan Sect, you can''t rely on the Protector Qin to appear. That''s not the point, mainly because I don''t have any outside help at all. Deer God spread out his hands and said with a helpless smile. Ever since he had obtained this position of offering, there had been no good reputation within the boundaries of Qing Xuan Sect. It was possible that in the eyes of these seniors, they would have died peacefully in the beginning, but now, even the last remote corner of the land was about to be destroyed by Chen Fan. If the Expert From Yuan Sect truly came, then all of the disciples would collectively vote on it. Without any hesitation, they would release Chen Fan, and they did not even hope for anyone to help them. Forget it, try your best not to drag Nangong Xuan into it. It should be filled with water, carry him as much as possible. This was the first time Chen Fan was this unsure of himself. It was mainly because he couldn''t guess what level of expert the Yuan Sect was going to be, but as long as it was a Protector or above, he basically had no chance. There were only two days left. Even if it were to drain its life, it wouldn''t get much of an amplification, so it might as well just enjoy it comfortably. After all, it still had this Pingquan Peak to defend it. The Dao Burning Furnace will need you to draw the last step to repair it. I can''t draw those lines. Deer God changed the topic. After soaking in the Heavenly Energy for a few days, although it had not recovered its original luster, it was still better than when it ran out of the main hall. Looking at the Spiritual Being around him decreasing day by day, Chen Fan felt his heart ache. He couldn''t help but have other thoughts. Because of this, he specially flipped through the ancient books, searching for similar seals in the other sects. Moreover, it was enough for them to pay tens of millions of Spiritual Stone s as the price. While they were searching for their target, the Three Saint Force was just like what Zhao Xu had refined before, enveloping the entire Furnace Body and entering it from all directions. The source of the energy came from the Spiritual Stone that he extorted from the Yuan Sect. As for the patterns on the surface, Chen Fan was powerless to help as they were all carved out by Cao Rui at his peak of his life. Even if he was able to understand them, he would not be able to reconstruct them. Everyone knew that the sun emitted an endless amount of energy, but no one had ever thought of using it. It wasn''t because they didn''t want to, but because their abilities were difficult to achieve. Chen Fan could only use the warm water to boil the frog, slowly strengthening the Furnace Body bit by bit, and at least several millions of it were gobbled up by him. Even though the Dao Burning Furnace was only about a foot in size, it was still able to fit a large belly. There were so many Spiritual Stone, but nothing strange happened when he stuffed them in. In the end, Chen Fan had no choice but to take out his Cauldron, and started refining them. The Dao fire was refined, personally melting the Spiritual Stone into droplets, then sticking them to the surface of the Furnace Body, thus increasing the speed of the transformation. After a few days of intense activation, Deer God had developed a ability to do two things at once. On this side, the dao flames were surging, yet his hands were still constantly flipping through ancient books. In other words, it was a coincidence that he had even caught a glimpse of the Qing Xuan Sect''s own past when he was searching for other Sect''s secrets. It suddenly occurred to him that since he could be chased deep into the Earth Veins by the Yuan Sect Protector and he also had this Furnace Body as protection, then he could go and walk underground the Qing Xuan Sect. Right, you finally have a proper kid. This old man didn''t think of this before. Deer God slapped his thigh. He didn''t need to wait for the arrival of the lightning tribulation, he just needed to go to the Earth Vein to temper his body in advance. Different from the Earth Vein where Chen Fan had been forced to jump, as long as it existed in the Earth Vein below a transcendent power, it would have long been suppressed by generations of Sect practitioners. From the very beginning, when they first established their sect, they would consider whether or not they could tame this dragon. Otherwise, they would choose a different land. If not, when a riot broke out one day, the consequences would be unimaginable. It would be disastrous for the entire sect. With the land in chaos, large scale casualties would inevitably occur. With the Sect Leader and many of the elders using their full power to absorb it, and with the support of over ten thousand disciples, coupled with the protection of the Sect Protection Array, nothing unexpected would happen easily. After waiting for another four hours, Chen Fan finally could not hold it in anymore. He gathered the fire and slowly cooled down the Dao Burning Furnace. Going to the Earth Vein to refine your body was not like going outside. You had to make ample preparations, and might even encounter some Heavenly Dao Fragment. Deer God didn''t have any intention to urge him to hurry up. No, tomorrow was the last day. If this dragged on, he wouldn''t even have the chance to put his life on the line. Chen Fan moved immediately, following the flow of the spring water from the Spiritual Peak down. There was a guy who previously wanted to sprinkle medicinal powder at the side, but he turned the tables and sent him into the army. Once the Pagoda Art was used, his entire body instantly turned into a stream of light, and with a swoosh, he went against the flow. At the same time, he also used the Furnace Body as a protector to prevent himself from being injured. Every time he went deeper by three meters, Chen Fan would feel that even more mountains were pressing down on his shoulders, which were incomparably heavy. Streams of light could only be used to forcefully travel back and forth, but it did not help him in any way. It was precisely because Furnace Body had to bear an even greater pressure that he had the guts to continue like this. Otherwise, with the current strength of your body, it would not even be three hundred meters before it was smashed into pieces. Amidst the encirclement of countless streaks of light, he actually traversed to the vicinity of the Qing Xuan Sect''s Earth Veins, and heard a wave of crashing sounds. Standing at the side of the wave, this place wasn''t as dim as one would imagine. The experts of the Qing Xuan Sect still had some conscience, as they embedded quite a few pearls into the cave walls. It was not ruled out that it was caused by the previous generation of Martial Ancestors, and was still radiating light to this day. Normally, no one would come to this kind of place, only that there would occasionally be an elder inspecting this place. Almost every transcendent power would have a similar underground space about thousands of feet below. It was extremely wide and was no different from any ordinary river. If this was the first time they had arrived here, aside from the feeling of shock, there would even be people who would feel perplexed. How many halls and caves would there be on such a hard ground, and why was there such a big hole? This place was the place that was related to the fate of the entire Sect. It was still a familiar gushing river. On one side, it was connected to the main vein underneath the North Domain, while the other side was split into more than ten gushing rivers, continuously supporting the Spiritual Peak. Sensing the unprecedented dense spirit energy in the air, Chen Fan was moved. He extended his hand out gently and felt for the droplets. When he came out not long ago, he had encountered life and death situations, and aside from that, he also thought back to the glorious years ten thousand years ago. To him, this level of cultivation was nothing but a piece of cake. If he encountered any difficulty in cultivating, he would go straight in and absorb all the spiritual energy into his body. It was as normal as eating and drinking. It seemed like all of the legends were true. When the Spiritual Energy was superimposed to a certain extent, it would indeed be able to ferment out this kind of divine object. Deer God''s eyes were sharp, while Chen Fan was still sighing emotionally, he had already shifted his attention to the depths of the Earth Vein. At the core of this vast ocean, there was a giant monster hibernating. Its size was immeasurable, and one could not see the end of it with the naked eye. It was completely filled in the depths of the earth''s core, similar to the riverbed. Fortunately, this big guy did not make any movements, he was probably in deep sleep and did not have the habit of snoring, if not Chen Fan would have died. Just by thinking about it, he felt that it was possible that a Genuine Dragon that existed in an Earth Vein and could mobilize all of its spirit energy at any time could kill Chen Fan under such a strange situation with a simple movement. C139 You, a dignified Heavenly Dao Fragment, actually don''t even know about this? Chen Fan feigned an expression of shock, which was extremely exaggerated. After a long period of time in a restricted state, a large portion of the vast amount of spiritual energy was locked in this underground space, and naturally, new changes would occur. Furthermore, the only thing that could be most compatible with the veins of the earth was the natural born Divine Beast, the Genuine Dragon. Since ancient times, it had been the symbol of invincibility, and no one had ever dared to be presumptuous in front of it. As for the previous vein, because it was in a constantly flowing state, even if it was brewed with a dragon''s imprint, it would still be destroyed, and it was fated to not have any Genuine Dragon. However, this did not exclude the possibility that there were hidden dragons in the main bloodlines. That kind of body size of Spiritual Energy could be forcefully accumulated into a Ancient Saints if all of them were stored up. Based on this conjecture, all the Spiritual Energy in the North Domain originated from those few main veins, and it was very likely that a Genuine Dragon that was countless times larger than Qing Xuan Sect was born. It''s just a dead thing, a man of incredible ability must be used by me in the end. You will come all the way down from the sky and think over the food in the plate? The Deer God asked, sounding like a continuous barrage of cannons, before he was captured by Cao Rui, that was the heaven''s way. How could it be possible for him to truly want to reach this sort of place? All he wanted was to take a look. As long as he had this thought, even a true five-clawed divine dragon would be able to sway in front of him. In his eyes, the so called Genuine Dragon was just a product of spiritual energy. It was an extremely compressed product and it did not have any consciousness at all. Just the aura alone was enough to make Chen Fan tremble slightly in fear, and he would not have fallen to his current state. You can''t say it like that, it''s not like there''s no precedent for Earth Vein Genuine Dragon to be revived. If you were to offend the taboo, both of us would be dead. Chen Fan made a gesture of silence. Previously, he had also heard such a thing, the spirit energy that was gathering was already dense, and if he coincidentally encountered too much, he might actually be able to live. It was not an exaggeration to say that although the veins had been concealed all year round, they were the most active and spiritual place in the entire Cultivation Realm. The Genuine Dragon that had been brewed here had the essence of evolving and becoming a living being. Hearing this, it was rare for the Deer God to not say anything more. Instead, it was as he had said, he was concerned with matters of the heavens, so he could not be bothered with matters of the earth. Normally, this fake Genuine Dragon would be in a deep slumber. As long as he did not provoke it, or excessively absorb the Earth Vein Spiritual Energy, he would not wake up easily. Then, Chen Fan chose a safe spot to sit down, and started to absorb the pure Spirit Qi. He actually wanted to directly jump into the Earth Vein. Firstly, he had the protection of the dragon body, which made it difficult to make a move. Secondly, he wanted to have the protection of the Spell Formation, which could only be activated by elder-level experts. Just as Chen Fan was about to start a new cultivation method, the Yuan Sect wasn''t too peaceful either. Zhang Kang and Ma Yuan were both invited to the Third Elder''s Spiritual Peak at the same time. When they were close to climbing the mountain, they made some preparations and compared them with each other. They really did not expect to alarm the Third Elder. Originally, they were just secretly collecting Spiritual Stone s, thinking and trying their best to avoid them, trying to minimize the trouble with Qing Xuan Sect. Perhaps it was because of the fund-raising event that had become a little big. After all, Yuan Sect was in the middle of a eventful period, so any movement would be magnified. Did Chen Fan really beat you guys up? The Third Elder was in a position of power, and his face was gloomy and stern. It was obvious that he was angry. That''s right, we just wanted to get an explanation for Junior Brother Hu Mu. Who knows what kind of position he used to come up and beat us up. I am a dignified Yuan Sect, as the number one sect in North Domain. When have I ever suffered such grievances? Zhang Kang and Ma Yuan coincidentally pushed all the blame onto Chen Fan at the same time. After a series of exaggerated descriptions, it was the latter who took the initiative to slander Yuan Sect. The two of them had completely discarded all their sins, not even a single word about how they wanted to rob others. This kind of request, you shouldn''t have agreed to it in the first place, it''s simply too embarrassing for me and my Yuan Sect. At that time, Chen Fan was extremely arrogant, and said that if we could not hand the Spiritual Stone over, we would have to leave behind our little life. He even mentioned Junior Brother Hu Mu ¡­ Ma Yuan decided to not do anything and did not rest. The two of them had already made up their minds that they would need to borrow Third Elder''s strength. It would be best if they could lure this old fellow into using their Qing Xuan Sect to deal with Chen Fan. What else did he say? Repeat the entire process of your Qing Xuan Sect to this old man, could it be that even my Grandson will be hunted down by him?! As expected, after the Third Elder heard those words, he instantly became furious, and wished he could directly kill his opponent with Qing Xuan Sect. He said that since he could be transferred to Junior Brother Hu Mu once, there will still be a second time, and even if you don''t even put him in your eyes, I think that brat probably has some signs of going crazy. Zhang Kang continued to speak, this was a golden opportunity, taking advantage of when the Third Elder was still angry, he had insisted that Hu Mu was his weakness, and would not allow him to be harmed at all. Hmph hmph, the Qing Xuan Sect has been getting more and more arrogant these few months. If I don''t teach them a lesson, I really won''t know how good I am right now. The treasury that she had painstakingly accumulated for hundreds of years had been plundered clean. When she went to chase and kill them herself, she still wasn''t able to retract them and they had made her the laughingstock of her entire Yuan Sect. Furthermore, with Chen Fan''s repeated provocations, it was very natural for him to think that it was the back-up of the higher ups of Qingquan Sect, and to smash the wooden tables beside him with a single slap. The Third Elder, calm down, isn''t worthy of getting angered by such a fellow. Right now, they were only relying on Chen Fan to support their clan. There was no need to fuss too much about it with them. Zhang Kang and Yue Yang were still trying to persuade them, but in reality, they were just watching for fun. Previously, he was thinking of how to bribe Hu Mu and make him talk about his grandfather, but from the looks of it, this process could be avoided. Since he wants the Spiritual Stone, then I will personally deliver it to him and see if he has the guts to accept it! The Third Elder pulled Zhang Kang and Zhang Kang over without a word, and directly dashed out in the direction of the Qingquan Sect. After finally finding a place to vent his anger, how could he possibly restrain himself? Outside the door of the Yuan Sect Mountain, three consecutive flashes of light rose into the sky. Sect Leader and the other elders had heard of this, but they did not stop him. C140 Recently, the anger he had been holding back in his Sect was too great, especially the Third Elder who was the most furious. It was very necessary for him to find a small power like Qing Xuan Sect and beat it up. There is pure primordial spiritual energy in the earth''s core, you should have a greater sense of belonging. Perhaps the small amount of spiritual energy you absorbed was something that was born in your era, hahaha. Deer God suddenly thought of this. An old fellow who lived the same life as heaven and earth, laughing at another person who had lived for another ten thousand years. The scene was extremely strange. What''s the meaning of this? You''re still immortal, so I won''t just stare at you everyday and lament about the past. Chen Fan was currently enduring an unimaginable pain, his entire body felt as if it was being pierced by needles. The method he had used on Protector Qin earlier, had been repeated here and now. Come to think of it, do you know the origin of spiritual energy? The reason why there was such an amount of spirit energy in the Cultivation Realm was because of the veins in the ground. They continued to flow and circulate, and in this never-ending process, more spirit energy was born. No one knew where this thing came from, or when it would appear. In any case, in the oldest records, ever since Human Clan had emerged from the Wilderness and defeated all other races, and as the fully deserving ruler of the continent, there had been a saying of cultivation ¡ª ¡ª It was precisely because of the strength and prosperity of the Human Clan that one had gained their current status. This kind of thing, I can''t say for sure. It even involves the issues of Cultivation Realm and the heaven and earth. I wonder how many experts have wanted to figure it out since ancient times. Hearing this, the Deer God waved his hand repeatedly. It was a rare occurrence that he did not speak carelessly. In front of the biggest secret of this world, he did not want to be careless, afraid of attracting some unknown cause and effect. Relatively speaking, the importance of spirit energy to Human Clan was much higher than that of other races. Take Demon Clan for example, innate experts had tyrannical bodies. Even if one did not cultivate, they would still possess powerful strength. In fact, the Dominator of the continent before Human Clan were actually represented by Genuine Dragon s and such. The cycle of reincarnation in the great world had its reasons, who could say for sure? These years, he had seen enough changes in the great world. Who knows what kind of pain Chen endured before he managed to utter this sigh. Previously, when he was targeting Protector Qin. Every bone was completely shattered before they could be repaired. It would still be different if they were transferred to his body. Even his flesh and blood would be thoroughly grinded and worn out. It was not an exaggeration to say that after this experiential learning, one''s physical body would have to be destroyed at least a thousand times before they could completely transform. They would have to endure a similar amount of pain. According to the Deer God, all of these were primordial spirit energy from several thousand years ago, and were even older than the power of the Three Saints, containing a harsh killing intent. This was also the main reason why Chen Fan chose to enter the Earth Vein; otherwise, he would have been able to complete it while he was in the Pingquan Peak, so there was no need for him to suffer this pain. These so-called ''great worlds'' usually had a long period of decline. Many supreme experts speculated that it might be because of this that they were accumulating energy. Most of the Cultivator s had already reached the end of their lives, and there were even times when they had changed several times. However, from the perspective of the terrain, it was only an instant of time. Chen Fan agreed with this conclusion because he had already reached the bottom of the Earth Vein. Looking back and forth today, he was indeed much weaker than ten thousand years ago. If I had tempered my body in the earth vein back then, I might not have suffered so much. Chen Fan suddenly thought of this, but it was too late to regret, as he had already recovered from his deep slumber. Moreover, his battle prowess at that time was highly likely to be simultaneously targeted by the earth meridians. It was unknown whether he could endure for close to ten thousand years. Perhaps it was due to the stimulation of the spiritual energy, but it also reminded him of a tempering technique, and one that specialized in the body. Have you heard of the Dragon Transformation skill? He had heard of them, but he wasn''t sure what they were for. It seemed that two of the elders had entered the sage realm. Although in the heyday of the Supreme Wu Tian, the Deer God had not been intercepted, he was still able to learn of the internal affairs from the history of the Heavenly Dao. That''s right, when I was trying to break through to the Saint realm, I considered using this technique, but I gave up. In Chen Fan''s time, the Dragon Transformation skill could be said to be extremely famous, especially to the strong who were proficient in body transformation. Almost everyone had the chance to cultivate the Dragon Transformation skill, but not many could persist through it, and the number of outstanding people were even fewer. Of course, those few people became the Ancient Saint s. Furthermore, because the Dragon Transformation skill was too tyrannical, after the Cultivation Realm had declined, there were no longer many people who would make new attempts. Could it be that you just wanted to show off to me? No matter how strong your Supreme Stage is, those Ancient Saint s relied on the Dragon Transformation skill to break through. It was not easy to fool the Deer God. Indeed, if it was just the cultivation of the body, in this aspect, it would not be beneficial to the cultivation of the whole body. And Chen Fan''s choice was progress in all aspects. With every step, he solidified his plans and achieved the position of supreme expert. He did not expect to be rejected by the Deer God. With his five fingers pressed together, only his palm had not been corroded by the Spiritual Energy, causing a few long lines of blood to burst out, all of them submerging into the ground veins. Although it was not large in size, it was still considered very substantial for Chen Fan''s body. As if she had been struck by lightning, his entire body swayed intensely, and she almost fell down head first. Many Talisman appeared around him, gradually forming the shape of a Spell Formation. It was able to control the rebellion of the primordial spirit energy, preventing it from causing more damage. Chen Fan had comprehended the Dragon Transformation skill in just a few short breaths of time. Ten thousand years ago, he already had some special feelings towards this technique, but now, he had merely revived that memory. Rumble rumble rumble! The Dragon Transformation skill was also able to change the power of the Three Saints into a light pillar. The light shone on Chen Fan''s head like the sun. However, this was not purely imbued into his body, every blade was sharper than divine weapons, it was formed by the dense cluster of sword units above Chen Fan, and after continuing to a certain degree, it would descend. C141 In the end, it had even extracted the appearance of a waterfall from the Earth Vein, which was so large that it was more than thirty meters, and Chen Fan, on the other hand, seemed to be much smaller in comparison. You have to hold on. The power of this pillar of light is not inferior to the third elder''s full-power attack. Deer God reminded him worriedly. If it was anyone else in the Foundation Building Stage, they would definitely be beaten to smithereens. After a period of time, the waterfall also gradually descended. To be exact, it was formed from countless Sword Intent and Spiritual Energy, and could easily destroy anything that obstructed it. Chen Fan nodded, he activated the Three Saint Force and Myriad Manifestation Scripture to resist the attack at the same time, but he could not start attacking from the outside of his body, he could only integrate the power of the waterfall into his body. Breaking one''s own body into pieces was not perfect enough. This way, one would be able to achieve the effect of tempering. Moreover, he would be able to cultivate the Dragon Transformation skill to the Small Success Realm in one fell swoop and instill that mysterious power into every corner of his body. Immediately after, a strong Geng Jin''s aura fell on his shoulders and to his sides. His body collapsed in an instant, and he was barely able to reconstruct what he was looking for. How could he have imagined that he would be so cold so quickly? This kind of pain reminded him of when he first survived the supreme heavenly tribulation. If he didn''t have a strong obsession with cultivation, then he might not have lived through it all. Not only was it able to create a Sword Intent, even the high temperature followed suit. The scorching heat wave burned his skin. This was the instinctive reaction of each body towards high temperatures. The pillar of light split into countless tiny Talisman s and entered the meridians. At that moment, Chen Fan''s body instantly turned into a battlefield, the power of the Three Saints suddenly erupted, the Qi of the Dragon Transformation skill also spread out, and the Myriad Splendor Divine Arts also gathered its energy, waiting patiently. Under such a high temperature, his hair and clothes were burnt to ashes. Even his blood was boiling and bubbling in his veins. The surface of his body had long ago been charred black, and the destruction of his internal organs was even more tragic. It was just that this kind of person could easily cause people to misunderstand, and could not help but want to directly throw away his body, leaving only Spiritual Consciousness behind, and use this kind of method to alleviate the pain. Killing someone to kill their heart, this was the most terrifying part of the primordial spirit energy. If one''s willpower was not strong enough, they would fall into this trap, their body would not be able to survive, and the Spiritual Consciousness would be annihilated the moment it leaves. Deer God had long since hidden far away and observed Chen Fan''s situation from a distance of more than three hundred meters away. If he was not careful, he would have used his strength to help. This was the latter''s choice. If he wasn''t forced into a crisis, he wouldn''t be able to interfere, even though he couldn''t control himself from doing so ¡­ Chen Fan was impressed. If he was to change it to a sincere Human Clan, Deer God would think that he would have some self-control, but he was still far from being able to compare with this abnormal guy. He actually used the primordial spirit energy from the Feng Shui lines to temper his body. He didn''t treat himself as a living being, but as a godly weapon, which he threw into the volcano without hesitation. perhaps because of the excessively painful stimulation, his nerves were a little numb. After about fifteen minutes, Chen Fan felt a lot more relaxed. After the heat wave had destroyed his bones, it was also slowly repairing himself. That was to say, he had received quite a large amount of wealth from the Third Elder. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have dared to do so. With the endless supply of Vital Energy s, they could freely go back and forth between life and death. And from the inside out, under the simultaneous control of both tubes, it also increased their strength at the same time. It seemed that the Dragon Transformation skill had already worked. It was best to focus on his physical body for a period of time in the future. Sensing that this body could only hold a maximum amount of Spiritual Energy s, Chen Fan made a decision. Ten thousand years ago, the seniors who had successfully entered the ranks of saints with their own bodies had reached the end of their map stealing. However, they possessed unrivaled battle prowess compared to cultivators of the same cultivation level. Their own bodies were treasures that they could use to create with just a casual grasp. Just the thought of that scene was enough to shock and excite them. A pair of iron fists could split heaven and earth, pluck stars and take the moon. Only by tempering one''s physical body could one achieve such an effect, and it was also the most obvious boost to one''s battle prowess. Furthermore, with Chen Fan''s current needs and the many difficulties he had to face, he had realized the importance of using the Dragon Transformation skill. It was true that Supreme Wu Tian would never be so generous and give him such rich energy when he went to other places because he had visited back then and felt endless gratitude and gratitude for his visit. It was a pity that the primordial spirit energy did not plan to give Chen Fan face. Moreover, did not say anything about it in the first place. Very quickly, the attack reached deep into the Spiritual Consciousness, and within the Zifu Space, there were strands of dark black silk. Rip! An ear-piercing sound rang out. The source of the sound was in his head. He held it tightly with both hands, but he did not dare to use too much strength. It was as if he was about to explode. Even Chen Fan did not expect the Dragon Transformation skill to be so effective on the Spiritual Consciousness, as his entire body was drenched in sweat, and he was immediately vaporized by the high temperature. As he kept repeating this process, he couldn''t bear the iron anymore. He clenched his teeth until they cracked and his facial features twisted. It was hard to see his original appearance. This kind of stalemate persisted for a whole half a day and was extremely awkward for Chen Fan. Fortunately, he had already gotten used to this kind of rhythm. Of course, the outside world should be arriving at daybreak soon, and there should be a conclusion to this matter ¡ª ¡ª Yuan Sect of the strong, who knows, maybe they had already reached the Qing Xuan Sect already. Only then did he recover from his state of cultivation, and he let out a long breath. The aura he gave off had greatly changed compared to before. It was no longer as threatening and cold as before, but had been restrained. It was much more vigorous now, and it was beginning to slowly move towards a steady pace, making Chen Fan even more happy. Deer God had also gained a lot. Under the tempering of this primordial spirit energy, his Zifu Space expanded like never before, and his stronghold became much wider. Furthermore, with the rise of Chen Fan''s Spiritual Consciousness, according to the latter''s words, the two of them were like grasshoppers on a boat, both flourishing and both suffering losses. Now that he was able to increase his strength, the Deer God was able to recover a lot. Overall, his trip to the Earth Vein was not in vain. Let''s go and see what''s going on outside. Maybe it''s already a pot of messy porridge. Chen Fan clapped his hands, and quickly rushed towards the ground. As expected, his body had undergone a transformation, and became as light and nimble as a swallow. C142 The speed of the flowing light in his words was so fast that even he himself did not manage to react in time. In just the blink of an eye, he had arrived at the Qing Xuan Sect''s martial arena. When he arrived at the arena, he discovered that an extremely inconceivable scene had already occurred. There were already a large number of young disciples gathered here, including Protector Liu and the rest. Could it be that my short day of cultivation has already created such a big sensation? Chen Fan could not help but exclaim. Who said that he had just completed a brand-new transformation, but facing so many strong warriors of the same generation, he still felt weak in his heart. He subconsciously thought back to the time he had targeted the Yuan Sect disciples two days ago. Maybe that was the reason why these people were thinking of him making trouble, and it seemed like there were three to four thousand people packed together. That shouldn''t be the case. If it''s just to target you ¡­ Deer God was also shocked, but whenhe thought about how Protector Liu had purposely targeted Chen Fan, she had also stirred up such a huge battle. The Qingquan Sect seemed to have formed a strange scene, even if the Sect Leader himself were to appear, it was not certain that he would be able to gather all of these young disciples. It had to be said that this was also a method for the latter to revive their Qing Xuan Sect, although he never thought that it would develop to such an extent. Hearing this, the unease in Chen Fan''s heart grew even more intense. If these people were to attack him at the same time, he really might not be able to endure it. Quickly cover up your face. If you don''t, you might not even have the chance to escape. Otherwise, you will be besieged by them, and you won''t even be able to preserve your life. Deer God hurriedly reminded him. Chen Fan had used the power of the Buddha Arts to appear at this place, and had appeared without a trace. No one had noticed him at all, so it was not too late for him to escape. However, when all the five senses on his face underwent a change, and even Chen Fan himself was unable to recognize this face, he quickly discovered another difference. It was as if these young disciples were not here for them. In the center of the Martial Arts Practice Grounds, there were two elderly figures facing each other. Third Elder, what do you mean by this? Why did you barge into my Qing Xuan Sect for no reason at all? Qian Ming shouted in a stern voice. As the second strongest person after the Sect Leader, he needed to personally investigate this old fellow''s intentions. Every single elder of the Yuan Sect possessed a great reputation in the Cultivation Realm. Not to mention those who were placed in the elder seats, every single one of their actions would be magnified, and many of them would even represent the will of the Yuan Sect. Hmph hmph, what did your disciple do? Do you want me to make it clear in front of everyone? The third elder was angry to begin with, so he naturally did not care. Today, he had to vent out his anger in a straightforward manner. In any case, with his status, no matter where he went in the North Domain, he would be treated with respect, no matter what kind of overbearing act he took place. The disciples of my Qing Xuan Sect have always been obedient, and have never provoked your Yuan Sect. So where did these words come from? Although he knew that it was very likely that this old fellow had come for the matters regarding Chen Fan, as the Great Elder of the Qing Xuan Sect, Qian Ming could not immediately let Chen Fan out, even though he had to completely value the benefits of the Sect. Old thing, if you know what''s good for you, hurry up and hand over that brat Chen Fan to me. The third elder suppressed the anger in his heart with difficulty. Even if he was ready for a big battle, he would at least have a reasonable excuse. The battle that happened a week ago at the Qing Xuan Sect was precisely to give that pitiful Grandson of mine an explanation. Regardless of whether they had the support of the Third Elder, just the treatment of the Yuan Sect disciples outside was not a small matter. Furthermore, they had already fought to the level of inner disciples. This was the way Yuan Sect had always been. They had never cared about anything white and green, nor did they have to care about such things. As long as their own family suffered a blow, they would desperately look for ways to make up for it. Please forgive this old man''s bluntness, but Redwood clearly knows that Nangong Xuan and my Qing Xuan Sect have an alliance and yet he still harassed Nangong Xuan many times. This in itself is very rude. After a moment of silence, he quickly sorted out the sequence of events in his mind. Following that, he retorted and indirectly expressed his intentions. Actually, no matter which side they were on, all of the things Hu Mu did were preposterous. It was only because of his identity that caused such a disturbance. He had ran over to Chen Fan''s Spiritual Peak and openly hooted, without any reason at all. Not only that, he even wanted to take Holy Maiden for himself. Moreover, the Hua Ding Sect did not track down any cause and effect, and had already given the Yuan Sect enough face. If it was any other young disciple, he would definitely be severely punished. Speaking of which, Hu Mu is only a normal suitor, could it be that you want to blame me for not being able to discipline him? The third elder was even more enraged. Hong Mu was originally his reverse scale, not to mention after going through the great calamity of life and death half a month ago, he had been wishing for this half of his life to be renewed. This old man is not clear about this point, I only know that he has somewhat surpassed his limit in my Qing Xuan Sect''s territory, and I hope that Third Elder can discipline him severely. Qian Ming spoke in a euphemistic tone, but it could not be any more straightforward, and could not mention it in front of everyone else if there was anything wrong with it. Impossible! Even if this old man''s relationship with the Grandson did not exist, my Yuan Sect disciples can''t be humiliated like this by you, as long as we are promoted to the inner sect level, we would already be considered as the strong Seeds. Finally, the Third Elder said these words. Originally, due to the unwritten rules of the Cultivation Realm, aside from the fact that disciples of the Yuan Sect were not allowed to touch them, even more so, the bottom line of the inner sect should not be easily touched. This was the first time they had heard the attitude of a high ranking official and had not admitted it in person for many years. According to your idea, what should I do? The Head Elder asked. Apparently, he had a deeper meaning. According to common sense, he should just borrow some money to get rid of this incident. No matter what sect they were placed in, no matter what kind of physique they had, it was impossible for them to go overboard for the sake of two mere disciples. Bring him to this old man, and take advantage of the fact that all of your disciples are at the side, and apologize to Hu Mu immediately. There was no room for discussion at all. There was an irresistible amount of authority in the third elder''s voice. C143 Just like when he was facing the protectors of the other sects, it was indeed a little rude to put on the airs of a high and mighty Expert From Yuan Sect. He was originally at the Qing Xuan Sect''s martial arena, and in front of so many young disciples at that. No matter how powerful his Yuan Sect was, he would at least give the Great Elder some face. No matter what, Chen Fan is still a disciple of my Qing Xuan Sect, he won''t be shouted at by you like this. Even if he has some fault, he should be punished by this old man himself. Qian Ming righteously spoke without showing any signs of going back on his words. Going by the normal route, no matter what he said, he would not let this old face break. Looks like you have to protect that brat no matter what. Since that''s the case, after a hundred years have passed, let me witness once again how much your Qing Xuan Sect has improved. The Third Elder could no longer hold himself back. He did not expect that before taking action, he would lose the match in the middle of a war of words. He felt utterly humiliated. The surging Spiritual Energy released a strong and powerful aura, as it wantonly brandished its battle intent. With his identity as a Expert From Yuan Sect, he was also able to unleash its full power. The pressure that burst out from a three hundred meter radius even caused the ground to collapse a lot, and this was under the premise that the martial ring had the defense of the Sect Protection Array. If this were an ordinary wasteland, it would be a terrifying situation where the heavens and the earth caved in. Every inch of space was filled with the Concept of Annihilation. Due to the anger he had accumulated in his Yuan Sect earlier, it had all been poured out at this moment. The scorching heat wave had even been transformed into flames, and the temperature suddenly increased. It wasn''t an exaggeration to say that this was the power of an elder-level expert. Once it released its domain, any other outsider would be restrained to a certain degree. Not daring to embarrass himself in front of the Yuan Sect Elder were only a few simple moves. Even though he said that, Qian Ming didn''t stay idle. He continuously pinched the Seal, and strands of white light shot out, vaguely having the intention to fight against the three elders. That''s right, Qian Ming directly went against the Third Elder, and was too lazy to waste time talking to him. In terms of seniority, the two of them were on equal footing, and there wasn''t any restriction at all. In truth, the Great Clan Elder had his own plans. Although the Qing Xuan Sect was split into two camps, his uses were unparalleled. At the same time, he had two elders under him who were neutral. The reason why they were leaning towards the Sect Leader was because the latter''s actions were extremely beneficial to their Qing Xuan Sect, while the Fifth Elder was biased towards them. Based on his own heart, he couldn''t bear to see the Sect that he grew up with. Not only did it fail to achieve a better development, it had instead turned into this state it was now, and was on the decline amidst constant internal strife. It was just that the Great Clan Elder did not have the mood to re-establish order. Furthermore, it was impossible for him, the Fifth Clan Elder and the Sect Leader to tear apart their relationship at the same time. After thinking about it, it just so happened that Chen Fan''s appearance had solved Qian Ming''s predicament. If he could support the latter, he could become a strong bargaining chip against the Fifth Elder, which meant that one person would become an army. It was very important to reduce the internal conflict and end the fight. From this, it could be seen that the conflict between Sect Leader and the Fifth Elder had already been replaced by Chen Fan. According to Qian Ming''s plan, once Chen Fan grew up, he would quickly become a thorn in the side of Wu Huan. At that time, the two sides would fight with each other, and he would benefit from it. Of course, at the level of the Great Elder, there were no Spiritual Stone or benefits at all. It was just a simple desire to contribute to Qing Xuan Sect. Rumble rumble rumble! Fierce attacks followed one after another. The surrounding space had long been destroyed to the point where it was unrecognizable. A gigantic Light Shield emerged from the ground. After all, the attacks of these two elders were extremely sharp, and could easily destroy a large area. Those Talisman appeared in the sky, looking incomparably gorgeous, but they contained a plethora of killing intent. If they truly destroyed the barrier without any scruples, half of their Qing Xuan Sect would have sunk. Under the swing of Qian Ming''s sleeve, an unimaginably huge storm suddenly appeared on the battlefield, seemingly not giving anyone a chance to react. The Third Elder sneered. To him, this level of attack was nothing but a small matter. He had never used his killing move. Now, he was also hesitating on whether he should use that move on the First Elder. Under the continuous movement of the latter''s fingers, a sword blade was mixed within the violent winds, brazenly slicing through the void. This was all due to his many years of experience in the path of the sword. No matter what, it was within the Qing Xuan Sect''s territory, and he had to use all his strength. If the Third Elder held the upper hand, then he might as well not take the position of Great Elder. The two figures didn''t seem to cross paths with each other, but in reality, their speed was incomparable. It was simply impossible to see them with the naked eye. In just a few breaths of time, they had already exchanged at least a hundred rounds. The martial arts and cultivation methods that he had cultivated in his life could be considered high leveled existences in the entire Cultivation Realm. When combined with the activation of his Nascent Infant, the cracks on the ground continued to expand. Those Sword Intent even mixed together with the turbulence and fragments, threads and tricky, they invaded the Third Elder''s back, wanting to attack him from a surprise attack, but were discovered. Instantly, space condensed, solidifying into a curtain wall that completely blocked it, leaving behind only the ear-piercing sound of friction. Waves of oppressive sounds successively sounded out, but when they fell into the ears of the crowd, it was extremely unpleasant. It was as if they were continuously being bombarded by Heavenly Thunder s, and the buzzing sounds in their minds continued. Thousands of disciples had this feeling at the same time. Some of them had slightly weaker cultivations, and even their faces had turned pale. That formless pressure was a huge burden on them. Oh my god, what do I see? The Great Clan Elder is actually fighting with the Fifth Clan Elder of the Yuan Sect. I heard that there has already been some disturbance in the Yuan Sect during this period, and it is very likely that their anger will be drawn to this place. The Great Elder might not have ruled out this possibility, but he was a bit too reckless. It would be best if he didn''t involve us in this. Although Qian Ming was high-spirited, no matter what kind of motive he had, or how unwilling he was, these disciples were actually more anxious than he was. Before this, there had never been an example of a Qing Xuan Sect practitioner going head on against a Yuan Sect practitioner ¨C as for the glorious era a thousand years ago, no one could remember it. It could be seen to what extent his Qing Xuan Sect had weakened to, that after hearing their discussion, even Chen Fan felt that it was not worth it. C144 Compared to when one''s strength gradually declined, the collapse of the human heart was unstoppable. This was the truly fatal thing to Qing Xuan Sect. It was impossible to condense the sense of belonging from these disciples. In other words, if they were to face any danger, they would abandon the sect and leave immediately. He didn''t even put the words'' respecting one''s teacher ''in his eyes, let alone expecting them to contribute in any way. They were just waiting to die. Clang! Clang! Clang! Qian Ming continuously waved the Lex Sabre in his hands, and every time he swung it, it would bring about a large amount of Talisman. This was a divine weapon he had refined for hundreds of years. He himself had already grown to be as powerful as the treasures of the sect, moreover, he was being activated by an expert of Qian Ming''s level with all his might. The power that erupted was simply unimaginable. It had the power to destroy the world within minutes. Taking advantage of the fact that the curtain wall had not been broken, Qian Ming took the initiative to pierce through the void and forcefully cut it down, then truly shot the heaven and earth towards the Third Elder. A gray fog suddenly descended. It seemed to be ethereal, but in reality, every inch of the space carried a great weight. The training field creaked under the pressure of this fog. It was unknown when a few elders appeared outside the training grounds, but they were not the current elders, and they looked very unfamiliar, but when they worked together, they caused the Formation Pattern in the training grounds to move, barely strengthening the Light Shield. He had heard that the Great Elder had refined a strand of the Heavenly Dao''s imprint earlier and helped him successfully break through to the Nascent Infant Stage, so he didn''t know if this matter was true or false. How could anyone create rumors like this? From the looks of it, the Great Elder''s methods were definitely linked to the Dao of Heaven. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to cut through the void in such a wide area. He has already reached a place that we can''t even imagine. There were some disciples who had been in the sect for many years. When they saw those elders, they recognized them as elders who had retired for many years. Their strength was not inferior to the elders at all. The feeling of being pressed down by a large stone on everyone''s chest was immediately reduced by quite a bit. Their hearts also sighed in relief as they discussed more about this battle. But it was still not the end. Qian Ming held the Lex Sabre in the air with both of his hands, and at the same time, the fog kept on rushing towards the Third Elder, and it was actually going to materialize at the same time. How dare you be so impudent in front of this old man, scram! The third elder let out a loud roar as the sonic wave attacked the mist. The energies of both sides clashed against each other, and the void around them shattered as if it had been crushed. Wherever the sonic wave touched, it would instantly turn into a battlefield. Every single figure, wielding a divine weapon similar to Qian Ming''s, fearlessly pounced over. It had to be said that this Senior Expert''s methods were quite impressive as well. He did not choose to face the power of heaven and earth head on, but chose to attack without any sound waves, in order to deal the greatest of impact to him. The two old fellows were Dominator s in this region, standing high above and looking down on the small fries who were listening to the sound waves. Qian Ming pressed his hands down ruthlessly, making a hacking motion. The third elder had a ferocious expression on his face. It was obvious that he had used all of his strength and was fighting against the descending gray fog. Many of his humanoid shadows had been shattered into nothingness. With regards to this, Qian Ming seemed to have been prepared for a long time. He raised his hand and cut his own palm, and a string of sparkling and translucent blood droplets flew far away, staining the sky a little red. The vast amount of energy in the air was like a vast ocean that wantonly formed an encirclement around the Third Elder. In the end, it was Qian Ming who took up a certain amount of space, so it might even be possible for him to use the Spell Formation in the secret training grounds. Using blood to sacrifice the heavens; this was also one of the Great Elder''s secret arts. Could it be that he was going to use a life or death measure? In the past, he used this method to kill several Nascent Infant Stage''s Demonic Beast. It can''t be that today''s scene is about to replay itself! Heavens, this is the third elder of the Yuan Sect. If we kill him, he definitely won''t let us off this easily. Seeing that, many people cried out in alarm, afraid that this battle would cause a showdown between the two Sect s. That would be a disaster for them. The other elders sitting in the air outside were as still as mountains. Their expressions were indifferent, but their trembling sleeves revealed the unease in their hearts. In order to suppress the battle between the two of them, they had expended a great deal of their cultivation. The third elder did not want to be outdone. While Yin Bo had not used up all of his energy yet, a fierce wind continued to blow, creating many mountain shadows of different sizes. However, these shadows were still hundreds of feet wide. This was not only an expression of his cultivation, but also the result of the endless amounts of Spiritual Energy being refined, creating an intense confrontation with the space in front of him. It had been a very long time since the Qing Xuan Sect had experienced such a large-scale attack. At the same time, the Third Elder''s body moved. He threw out a palm attack as light as a feather and casually shot out a black chain like chain that connected all the mountain shadows. In this way, it created a massive creature that was over ten thousand feet tall. There was even a suction force that faintly moved, attempting to destroy the scarlet red colour. At this moment, the only thing that could be seen was the third elder''s body merging with the mountain shadows. The battle intent around him surged, stirring up the clouds and creating a mess of porridge. Crash, crack, crack. This incomparably thick chain was moving at a very fast speed, simultaneously enveloping dozens of mountain shadows. Every move of this huge monster was filled with endless danger, forming a reverse sealing line. Qian Ming, too, had his life force ignited, forcefully controlling the life force in his body, and the Blood Essence that invisibly nourished the gray mist. Its divine might was endless, and at a glance, it seemed to want to replace the position of Heaven. In the end, he simply threw the Lex Sabre out, and it quickly rotated to form a round cover, with sharp Sword Intent s constantly revolving around it. Those mountain shadows were also entangled by them very quickly, passively suppressing and resisting, constantly going back and forth, the chains colliding with them, and even a large amount of sparks flying out. Qian Ming and the Third Elder had given up on the treasures in their hands that would increase their fighting strength the most. To an opponent like him, not only was his body extremely heavy, but the consumption of his cultivation was beyond imagination. Of course, the most important part was the trial of his cultivation and mind. Qian Ming who had already summoned his Blood Essence continued to wave his fists, following suit, transforming into many small dragon-shaped beasts. They even produced low hissing sounds, which looked no weaker than the sound waves. Even if my Qing Xuan Sect has declined, I can''t allow an old fellow like you to take someone away as you please. As long as you step into the sect, you must obtain the consent of the Sect Leader or this old man in everything. Great Elder''s voice was not loud, but it spread throughout the entire audience, and indirectly beat Protector Liu and the others down. Some things could not be reprimanded in front of others, and could only be said by scolding people. Chen Fan, as the Guardian of Sect, protected the reputation and prestige of the Qing Xuan Sect. If this old man were to punish him severely, wouldn''t that be disheartening to many disciples? So to say, Chen Fan''s reputation in the Middle School had always been negative, Qian Ming forcibly established a memorial archway for him, and even accepted the former''s position, transforming it to such a degree that it was akin to a pebble in the ocean. Many inner sect disciples and guards who were experts on stratagem heard the deep meaning behind it. This could be said to be the first time in decades that their Qing Xuan Sect had been so powerful. From a certain point of view, the Third Elder and Qian Ming were respectively able to represent the Sect behind them. After all, they had truly reached the core position in the decision, and every word they said could be understood as the will of the Sect. Moreover, there was one more thing to think about. Until now, no Sect Leader or other elders had shown up, and they had even stopped the spread of the battle by inviting out the mysterious senior. It was not only because of the Third Elder''s special identity, but also because of the inconvenience of many of the higher ups making contact with him. If there were any other elders who wished to attack Chen Fan, they would have to reprimand him now. But even after a long time, there was still no one. As for the Protector Liu, they were a little apprehensive. Either the upper echelons had already reached an agreement, or the Sect Leader and bloodline had suppressed Qian De on this matter. Hehe, it seems like you don''t only have those two little fellows as allies. Now, you have an old fart who wants to help you. Deer God clearly saw the entire battle from within the Zifu Space. Although the battle between the two parties had not ended, he had deduced something. The situation hasn''t been confirmed yet, who can say for sure? Maybe this old fogey is just using me as a cover. It looked like the situation had really changed, as he was slowly leaning towards the advantageous position he was in, but Chen Fan knew he could not let his guard down, and could not forget about it. Usually, these old fellows would do things with a certain motive, Chen Fan was well aware of the reasoning, he was originally like this, a thousand year old fox, there was no need to have a chat. In front of so many disciples, Qian Ming did not hesitate to start a war with the Third Elder. What other thoughts can I come up with? It is nothing more than using you to suppress the Fifth Elder and the others. I didn''t expect to be treated like a chess piece one day. How laughable. The heavens and earth were heartless, and everything was useless. It was because of Chen Fan''s decision to become a supreme expert after hearing these words, and the title he had chosen was Wu Tian. At that time, he realized that the heavens and earth were using all living beings as chess pieces, and he wanted to jump off the chess board to reach a level that could contend against the Heavenly Dao. C145 Who didn''t come slowly from the chess piece? He climbed up step by step, and there would always be a day when he would fly out ¡­ The Deer God advised leisurely, as he could tell that Chen Fan was somewhat unwilling. The hidden meaning was to let him seize this opportunity. With the support of the Great Clan Elder, his plans to revive the Qing Xuan Sect would definitely advance by a lot ¡­ Some people aren''t even qualified to be pawns. They''re still at the stage of rotting wood. No matter what, Chen Fan had many innate advantages. Ten thousand years of memories and cultivation experience, for the young Cultivator, this was an opportunity that they would not even dare dream of. This may not necessarily be the case. When you were first born, your level of consciousness had always been higher than all living beings in this world. This time, even the Deer God had nothing to say. The originally good metaphor was seemingly irrefutable, yet he was the only unusual one, standing right next to Chen Fan in the entire continent. While they were talking, the two strong practitioners had already started their most terrifying clash. A sea of Spiritual Energy s were grinding each other down at an unimaginable rate, and at the same time, their physical strength left Chen Fan speechless. After all, he was an old monster who had cultivated for hundreds of years. Compared to the process of him falling for tens of thousands of years, it definitely couldn''t be compared at all. Bang! Bang! Bang! Explosions rang out incessantly, assaulting the eardrums of the disciples. They wanted nothing more than to forcibly blow up the eardrums. Terrifying pressure swept out in all directions like a tidal wave, and no one was able to escape. At this time, the sword and the mountain shadow had already interweaved for half an hour, and each of Qian Ming''s fist marks was mixed with the previous gray fog. The moment the two types of ultimate powers made contact with each other, the result was that the earth below them collapsed. Many of the Formation Pattern s dimmed down and were corroded beyond recognition. They also had to ensure that not a trace of the battle s ripples could be transmitted out. It had to be known that the cultivation level of the disciples outside were mostly at the Foundation Building Stage, they simply could not endure the strength of experts. After a short and quick exchange of blows, the two retreated simultaneously. They staggered for several steps before the terrifying force from their bodies dissipated. However, they knew very well just how terrible the other party''s situation was. With heads full of white hair, they flew along the Spiritual Energy''s chaotic flow. The two of them activated their respective blood and Qi to their peak, and their entire bodies were enveloped by a layer of flower blossom. It looked like they were no longer normal Human Clan cultivators. If an ordinary person who had never been in contact with cultivation saw this scene, they might have thought that the two furnaces had become spirits. Even from a distance, they would have felt a wave of heat blowing towards them. But from the speed of recovery, it was clear that Qian Ming had the upper hand. In less than two breaths of time, he had already rushed over, his palm turned into a blade, cutting down by himself. In fact, when it came to age, there was still a gap of one hundred years between the Third Elder and the former. At this time, the cultivation base was so deep that it finally turned into something of benefit. From the start of the battle, Qian Ming had already decided on the strategy of taking action. He did not care about life and death, but he had to create the illusion and force the Third Elder to use his full strength. Fighting for a long time with such a high intensity had consumed a lot of their cultivation. That kind of method, which could easily scare the world, had to rely on a large number of Spiritual Energy. Even if hundreds of Aurous Core stage cultivators worked together, they still wouldn''t be able to supply that much. Right now, they were like two water reservoirs that had been released, everyone only had mud left on the ground, but the Third Elder seemed to have dried up even more than Qian Ming. Weng! * This palm contained the meaning of returning to its original nature. It seemed ordinary but along the way, it annihilated the void without hesitation. It carried the top grade cultivation technique of the Qing Xuan Sect and possessed the power to destroy Nascent Infant Stage Expert. Wu, looks like this old fellow is about to fail, he mustered his large army of people to run to the Qing Xuan Sect to interrogate him, yet he returns with a loser, this time he is definitely going to explode from anger. The smile on his face could not even be concealed. With his eyesight, he was naturally able to see that the Third Elder was in a dilemma. Aren''t you lucky, brat? You haven''t been able to circulate the Heavenly Heart Formula happily even after such a long time. Deer God was also very happy. This disgrace community between him and Chen Fan, after this battle, would once again have a great improvement. Heh heh, why is it that after ten thousand years, coupled with the fact that I''ve been using bad words all this time, it''s about time for me to make a comeback. Ever since he left the Earth Vein, his cultivation had never stopped rising. Furthermore, he even had these two old fellows to send him godly assistance for free. The Clan Elders and Rankers were extremely helpful to Chen Fan in his current cultivation, to the point that even the Heavenly Heart Formula was unable to circulate its energy and continuously sent its anger into his body. This old fellow''s palm technique is quite mysterious. I think you should learn it. You might be able to comprehend something else. Deer God who had been fed with anger had now turned his attention elsewhere. It was rare that he did not look at Third Elder or Qian Ming''s Storage Bag. Although it was unlikely that he had actually acquired the real Heavenly Dao Fragment, he must have come in contact with some sort of aura. Following his orders,''s eyes shone with a brilliant light. However, he was concealed in the air and did not get discovered by others, and was secretly figuring out the Talisman s that had been forcefully taken out from Qian Ming''s palms. It was weird. The two of them had at least ten thousand living fossils, but they actually had to call each other an old guy. They both knew who they were referring to, so they acted like they were young. Not ruling out the possibility, Cao Rui did draw out another brand before sealing me. Deer God suddenly remembered. It was true that Chen Fan''s thoughts were calm, the fighting strength of a Zhi Zun was enough to allow him to stand at the peak of the Cultivation Realm, and he did not care much about establishing his own sect, but his three disciples were experienced. At the same time as he intercepted the Heavenly Dao Fragment, he also had the thought of letting his clan''s Sect continue for a longer period of time. Little Cao actually did such a thing? Hearing this, Chen Fan also had a slight difference. In the period of time after he had fallen into deep sleep, what the disciples had done to him, up till now, was still a mystery to him. Without a doubt, most of Qian Ming''s techniques came from his Qing Xuan Sect. Chen Fan thought further that if he could obtain the method to control the sect, then it would save him a lot of trouble. Deer God:... He was already too lazy to respond to Chen Fan''s words. He had said many things to call her Cao Rui, but this would make him feel like he was losing seniority, yet the latter had never paid attention to it. Seeing that the situation was not good, the Third Elder wanted to retreat, but in his heart, he clearly told himself that as a Expert From Yuan Sect, he definitely could not let this situation occur. Even though he was a little unsure, he still used his two arms to block it. The word "retreat" could not possibly appear on the bodies of those with Yuan Sect, not to mention that he was a dignified elder as well. Then, he quickly realized how the word "regret" was written. The palm that Qian Ming had unleashed was still expanding, and the spatial turbulence that was mixed in could be imagined. In the end, it even covered half of the sky, casting a large shadow on the ground. The sun was directly snapped, and the surrounding space was forcefully compressed. Countless little dragons were moving in the air. Although they looked like earthworms in a trance, no one dared to underestimate them once they opened their hideous mouths. It directly broke through the Third Elder''s spiritual light defense, fiercely stimulating his flesh and blood. With a single bite, he would be able to strip away the energy equivalent to that of an Aurous Core stage cultivator. Adding on the five finger marks above his head, it gave him the illusion that even the top of his head would explode. Such heavy pressure was even more frightening than the mountain medicine that he conjured. Right at this moment, the Third Elder was still trying to struggle and summon the mountain shadow to protect himself, but he was stopped by Qian Ming''s Lex Sabre and the chain was directly broken. Without the support of this critical crux, the mountain images that were barely pieced together for more than three thousand meters, directly collapsed, and disappeared from the world. It might even have caused the Qing Xuan Sect''s spirit energy to become a little denser. As the second strongest practitioner on the surface only second to the Sect Leader, Qian Ming''s figure looked incredibly tall, as if his aura could swallow a mountain and swallow a river, and his stooped waist straightened a lot as well. Although he was still somewhat skinny, no one questioned the terrifying strength contained within his body. This undoubtedly proved that the First Elder''s position was unshakable. However, at the last moment, he still withdrew his hand. It was only an inch away from the Third Elder''s forehead. A mere thought could take his life. Third Elder, when this old man embarked on the road of cultivation back then, you were still just a baby. Today, I have never suppressed you with the attitude of a senior, and have already expressed my respect for Yuan Sect. Qian Ming calmed his aura and energy fluctuations. It had been a long time since he had experienced such an intense battle, and most of it came from the difference in realms of cultivation. It''s true that the decline of my Qing Xuan Sect is a foregone conclusion, but I can''t let all of you casually humiliate me either. As long as this old man still has a breath of air, I shouldn''t dream of making a move on Chen Fan again. As the Great Elder of the Qing Xuan Sect, his words were undoubtedly like a bomb that heavily struck back against the Third Elder, who had a face that was even more bitter than eating Huang Lian. The thousands of disciples outside of the arena also went into an uproar. They simply could not understand why their clan''s elders would say such words. For an outsider, they would break the decades-old tradition. The Sect that caused such a conflict with the Yuan Sect the last time seemed to have been extinguished not long after, and had not even risen to the level of an elder. Everyone was anxious and anxious. Their worried emotions had been spreading ever since Chen Fan defeated the two disciples. Up until today, the Third Elder had personally paid them a visit. Originally, it had seemed like the end of the world to them. Who would have thought that the First Elder would still be so unyielding? C146 Not only did they not show any signs of yielding, they even suppressed him. In that moment, it was difficult to understand what they were trying to say. On one hand, the Great Clan Elder had personally told him the truth of his decline, and on the other hand, he had torn off all relations with Yuan Sect. Hmph, this old man has never been in the wrong, so let''s call it a day. I''ll come back and find you after I find out the truth. Realizing that he was not Qian Ming''s match, and was even in the Qing Xuan Sect''s territory, and that he still had the reputation of a transcendent power, and that he couldn''t be as arrogant as he would in the other sects, the Third Elder gave himself a stepping stone. Take care, see you out. Qian Ming lifted his hand and opened up a spatial tunnel in the middle of the training grounds. The former had a gloomy and desperate look on his face, but he still turned around and left without saying a word. Very soon, the disciples who were content to watch the show dispersed one by one. Everyone had a strange feeling in their hearts, and after knowing that they had entered the Sect, a sense of crisis overwhelmed them for the first time ever. Chen Fan who was hiding inside naturally followed the flow. From the palm technique Qian Ming used, he did gain some insights and was thinking about how to ignite the fire while it was still hot, maybe he would be able to learn a new technique. However, the moment he returned to the Pingquan Peak, before he even had a chance to warm up his seat, the order of the Great Elder came from Zhao Xu. He hurriedly rushed to Pindu Peak, and it was not even the hall where Sect affairs were normally discussed. As expected, there were only two people in the secret room, Sect Leader and Qian Ming. This meaning was very obvious, Chen Fan started to think about how to deal with these two old fellows. Even if the Deer God were to say that he wanted to use his strength to contend against the Fifth Elder, it would not be possible for him to become a pawn so easily. Do you know why I called you here? Sect Leader clasped his hands behind his back. The entire sect was shaken. I am not stupid, how could I not guess it? Chen Fan still maintained his sloppy attitude. That Ancient Token of Grand Master, do you still want to hand it over? The Great Clan Elder took over the conversation, and frowned. If it was another disciple speaking to him like that, they would have already been scolded. As for Chen Fan, he would have already endured it. Although it has already been three months, I have decided to wait and see for a while, considering your performance. Chen Fan''s extremely calm response caused these two old fellows to involuntarily raise their eyebrows. They thought they had misheard, how did this look like a junior standing in front of them? Having ruled over the Qing Xuan Sect for so many years, no one had ever dared to wait and see the performance of these two. Chen Fan, pay attention to one thing. This old man is discussing business with you. Sect Leader''s voice rose by several points, to the point where he even thought that the former had been sent by the heavens to test him. As long as he saw this guy, his state of mind, which would not fluctuate even once in a hundred years, would still stir up waves of emotions. Moreover, it was the kind that was hard to control. In this case, you two should also pay attention to this. I am the one you have personally spoken of. Let''s sit on equal footing and not have any prejudices against me. Chen Fan casually found a place to sit down, expecting him to be like Zhao Xu and the other disciples, looking at the Great Clan Elder was like looking at a mouse seeing a cat. Needless to say, the two of you are quite smart, choosing the former between internal and external troubles. You brat ¡­ ''Sigh, I can''t be like a normal person. This way, this old man can easily use his strength ¡­ '' Tell me what you think... The Great Elder sighed, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. A strange look flashed past the Sect Leader by the side, all because of Chen Fan''s words, it directly entered the hearts of the two people. Furthermore, he once again verified the former''s judgement ¡ª He firmly believed that Chen Fan was an intelligent person, and not only was it limited to thinking, he also had an insight into the overall situation of Sect. It was because of this that the Sect Leader had chosen him as their support. If he was just a pile of mud, speaking good words would be useless. I guess you all have been wanting to bring in some external power for a long time already, but coincidentally, because of me, that''s why you borrowed the Eastern Wind of Yuan Sect. First, the group of elders took this opportunity to attack, and then they slowly lost their wings, until it changed within the limits of the entire Sect. Combined with the cause and effect of the Third Elder''s attack, the entire context of the storm had long emerged in Chen Fan''s mind. From the moment Ma Yuan stepped into the training grounds, he had already fallen into the deep pit set up by the Great Clan Elder and Sect Leader. In all likelihood, the disciples who had brought them to the Pingquan Peak were all specially instigated by the latter, with the intention of luring the Third Elder over. If it were any other Sect''s forces or seniors, they would not have been able to move these young disciples and guardians who had long ago become numb to it. In order to protect his little life, as well as this great Sect, he had to change his dejected look. After all, to wholeheartedly focus on cultivation was the proper way, and indirectly, it would also make it easier for the Fifth Elder to weaken. But in terms of source, it was still because of Chen Fan. If he did not stir things up using his identity as a Master Gu, the Third Elder would not have come to denounce him in such a rage. A single sip and a single peck all had a cause and effect. Many things happened when one traced back to the origin, and one would realize that it had actually been decided a long time ago. This will be the general direction of my Qing Xuan Sect for a very long time in the future. It''s time for this ship to be in its proper position. This was a decision he made after careful consideration, and it fit perfectly with the Great Clan Elder''s slap. It looks like your analysis of the current situation of Sect is even better than the two of us. That sentence was really too incisive. Even the Head Elder could not help but secretly praise him, but he could not reveal it. This young man was filled with too many mysteries. Come on, come on, don''t praise me. This belongs to me. There might be some important missions later on. Chen Fan repeatedly waved his hand, but in reality, he was also looking forward to it in his heart. If he wanted to use Qing Xuan Sect as a stepping stone to regain the glory of a sovereign from ten thousand years ago, then he needed to revive this Sect. It''s not easy, you boy. Spring is coming, and the bad luck of being hunted has turned into good luck. Deer God suddenly said from the Zifu Space. Today was truly a joyous occasion, as he watched Plum Blossom open it three times. C147 Well, it looks like I can move my plan a step ahead of schedule, if things go well. Chen Fan muttered to himself. He had thought that these Top Rankers were all pedantic until the end. Now, it seemed that these two old fellows had a bit of conscience and also had the intention to make a change. From the state of those disciples, it could be seen that this required a drastic change to the entire Sect. It required quite a bit of courage and skill. Before Chen Fan had grown up, these were the only two who had the ability. Such a huge project requires unimaginable amounts of energy, and it would take at least a few years of effort to finish. The fault in our Qing Xuan Sect right now is too serious. After we old fellows pass away in meditation, I really don''t know if we can still have a future. This was the first time Qian Ming revealed such an emotion in front of a so-called junior. Even though the situation had changed so quickly, Chen Fan was even more precise in controlling the lesions on his Sect than he was. The reason why I have chosen you, is because I want to see your potential and talent, and hope that you will be able to be a pillar of our Qing Xuan Sect in the future. The meaning of Lan Yu''s words was that some of the sick old emperors had given up on him, sincerely afraid that the seal that signified their authority would give up on him. I''ll leave that Ancient Token of Grand Master with you first, but you definitely can''t let others off easily, especially when you''re on guard against the Fifth Elder. In actuality, the Great Elder and Lan Yu had hesitated before, but if they revealed this to Chen Fan, it might cause a backlash. After thinking about it for a while, only he could bear this heavy responsibility. Don''t say it like that, I can only try my best, all of this comes from the Ancient Token of Grand Master. Although his heart was similarly yearning for support from the elders, Chen Fan was originally somewhat resistant to it. It was once known as invincible, yet now, he had to be randomly pointed out by two old men like them, and rely on their protection to completely restore his Qing Xuan Sect. In his opinion, this was just the biggest stain on his life. However, the Fifth Elder was already in the position of Elder, and most of the Protectors were standing by his side, wanting to take over the position of Sect Leader since a long time ago. Even if Chen Fan didn''t say it, Lan Yu knew clearly, even if it was just a declining transcendent power, the position of the Sect Leader was still up for grabs. Those were just fence-sitters. As long as there were sufficient benefits, they could turn the tables around with just a few minutes. If they were properly controlled, it should not cause too much trouble. The Great Clan Elder wanted to reveal everything to Chen Fan, but in the end, he stopped. He naturally had other plans in mind. Any one of these Senior Expert s were extremely shrewd, thought that they could plot against the other party, or even play with Chen Fan. However, they did not know that the latter''s thoughts were even deeper than theirs. Basically, within the Qing Xuan Sect, as long as they entered, within three months, they would definitely find out about the internal conflicts within the three great factions. Although they weren''t in a hurry to stand in teams, they were sure to be disappointed with the empty air of a transcendent power. At the same time that he was stabilizing the Sect, he was also going to have to recruit more disciples. He was going to keep his body size unchanged and let go of the treasury appropriately. Lan Yu followed up with the Great Clan Elder''s words. Unsurprisingly, this was definitely an operation that required a huge change of blood, of course, he had to cultivate young strength as fast as possible. Although the infusion of fresh blood was important, they still had to undergo a transformation, starting from the source and attacking the heart. Suddenly, Chen Fan felt as if his soul had pierced through Cao Rui as he sincerely warned his. Logically speaking, the entire sect should be united by a common enemy and a common enemy. No matter what, they still had the foundation that they once had when they were in the prime of their glory. If he used it well, it might not be impossible to stop its decline. In the end, year after year of internal strife had consumed it. Now, it was lifeless and had become the mainstream. To compare Qing Xuan Sect to a cultivation expert, not only were there multiple external injuries, even the most important part of his Dao-heart had been corroded. This was the most difficult area to repair. Wu, one of them is An Nai while the other is Mind Cultivating. As long as these two points are settled, the Fifth Elder''s disaster would almost be solved. Hearing these words, the Great Clan Elder and Lan Yu had no choice but to think highly of Chen Fan. This kind of suggestion could only be understood after staying in the Qing Xuan Sect for at least a few decades. The latter wanted to add another sentence, causing this situation today. These two old fellows also had unavoidable responsibilities. They should have stopped the Fifth Elder in time, and shouldn''t have fought with him for so many years. In the end, they were still acting on their own, but if they had made up their minds earlier, it would not have caused such a huge loss to their Qing Xuan Sect. Every single move of theirs, these kind of elders, would all be used up in the form of Spiritual Being. However, after thinking for a while, he didn''t say it out loud. After all, it was an established fact that had happened, so there was no point in wasting any more time on it. Moreover, Great Elder and the others also had the thought of making up for their wrongdoings here. This was a good omen, it was still better than fleeing in the face of Yuan Sect. However, I have to say one more thing. Safety is too important. If the two of you do this today, the Fifth Elder will definitely point the spearhead at me. Using this as an excuse, Chen Fan wanted to take the chance to strike a blow and once again fix his Pingquan Peak. This way, he would be able to use it as a permanent base and successfully pry open the huge rock called Qing Xuan Sect. I don''t have any good methods, I can only banish you for three months. Lan Yu suddenly said. Ah? Just a moment ago, he was still wholeheartedly discussing about the affairs of Sect with, but in the end, they changed their faces the moment they mentioned it. He has already used the name of Yuan Sect to beat up Qian De, and he will most likely use this period of time to focus all of his attention on you, it would be better for him to go out and hide. Furthermore, after travelling outside for a bit, they would gain some knowledge and experience. Many young people would have to go through this stage, and the five old hands wouldn''t stretch out for so long. Qian Ming was also comforting Chen Fan. This was also a last resort, in order to help him up, he had to retreat first. It was too late for his current Qing Xuan Sect. If Lan Yu and the former knew what Chen Fan was doing in the Yuan Sect, and if they had already gone through earth-shaking turmoil beforehand, they definitely would not make such a suggestion. Once the Third Elder discovered that something was amiss, he would very likely put Chen Fan in a very dangerous situation. This seed that had been harbored deep hope in him might very well be killed. The Fifth Elder has recently become more and more impudent. The Church has gradually weakened his wings, and in other words, you are the key chess piece to be used against him in the end. In the end, he had heard this phrase from Lan Yu''s mouth. It used to make Chen Fan feel unusually disgusted, but now he could only think of something. C148 He first started with a small chess piece. Since he was able to escape ten thousand years ago, today was no exception. If he did not even have the determination, how could he talk about regaining his strength? Everything that we have done is just a foreshadowing, so you still have to truly poke holes into this last layer of paper. You might be a little nervous during these three months, but you can only feel wronged for the sake of Sect. Qian Ming was extremely sincere, if not because Chen Fan also had the potential to be a cunning old fox, he would have believed him to be real. If any other young disciple was treated like this by the Great Elder of his clan, they might even kneel down and kowtow a few times, then pat their chests to make a promise to Yi Boyun. I have only just reached Foundation Building Stage, what can I do to help? Chen Fan was extremely puzzled. Suddenly, he realized that even his own thoughts were unable to match up to the madness of these two old fellows. According to his plan, he would have to wait at least another half a year or so, until his Qing Xuan Sect gained the ability to settle down, and then, he would gradually contend with these elders. He felt that it was not really true. After all, the Fifth Elder had stayed in the Sect for so many years, and wanting to completely remove the Sect was not something that could be done in a day and night. With the old me and Lan Yu holding the Fifth Elder back at Sect, his attention shouldn''t be diverted to the outside either. There was a deeper meaning behind Qian Ming''s words, but they were all covered up by the words of a smart person, there were some things that should not be put on the surface. Chen Fan could also faintly sense the intentions of these two old fellows. Other than not being able to publicize the fifth elder''s trapping of his nets, this exile was also testing him. To be able to survive without a hitch and reach a certain level where he could compete with the latter, only then would Lan Yu and Yue Yang be worthy of their full support. Thinking about it till here, Chen Fan became somewhat relieved. Only then did he fulfill the unwritten rules of Cultivation Realm, there would never be a pie that dropped out of nowhere for no reason, since Lan Yu had requests, that was fine. Furthermore, he hadn''t even directly mentioned it, which already meant that he was similarly uncertain just how far Chen Fan could go. Let''s put it this way, after three months, I should be able to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage Six Transformation. Chen Fan, who had consciously understood Qian Ming''s initial intention, gave them a satisfactory answer, which was already conservative enough. If it were an inner disciple like Zhao Ming who had just stepped into the Foundation Establishment stage, it would take at least two years to break through five small steps. The reason why she had this kind of confidence was to let Qian Ming and the others feel at ease. As for whether or not she could reach a higher level, luck was also very important sometimes. If you want to replace the Fifth Elder, on the day you pass through the heavenly tribulation of Nascent Infant, you can automatically be promoted to an elder. The familiar scene played out once again. Earlier, Nangong Yi Ye had personally said that as long as Chen Fan joined the Hua Ding Sect, he would be able to sit on the throne of the second in command. At this moment, Lan Yu was also extremely angry, he had promised to break off the Fifth Elder''s relationship with his. The remaining powers were all in his and the Great Clan Elder''s hands, so it wasn''t impossible for them to split some of it with Chen Fan. It''s fine if you two remember to help me reverse it at that time, but I have contributed a lot to the Sect as well. Under Deer God''s warning, Chen Fan felt that it was necessary to say this to the two old fellows, otherwise, it was really possible that they would play dead. He had already brought him to such a profound level in Nascent Infant, it wouldn''t be more than two to three years of effort. In this period of time, he might not be able to accomplish anything else. Chen Fan had always been an incomparably pragmatic person, and only when he had truly obtained this good fortune, would it be regarded as beneficial. Don''t worry about this, you just have to bear the blame for these three months. When you return, I still have to count on you to topple Qian De. said in all seriousness. He and Lan Yu indeed had other plans, but they couldn''t tell Chen Fan right now, in case anything went wrong. And there was also Pingquan Peak. If there was no place else to place the young disciples oppressed by the Fifth Elder, they could hide there, but not tell the truth. Before leaving, Chen Fan still had to share some of the pressure on Zhao Xu. He didn''t want to see the stronghold that he had painstakingly exchanged for with the Ancient Token of Grand Master get occupied after three months. Okay, let''s hope we succeed. The three of them reached an agreement just like that, each with their own ulterior motives. Chen Fan also knew that it was impossible to squeeze anything out of them, so he directly turned around and returned to the Pingquan Peak. Qian Ming and Lan Yu''s hasty steps made him suddenly stop, but luckily he had raised their cultivations in advance, finally allowing him to think of something. Furthermore, he was still in a hurry to go through the tempering process in the Earth Vein. Even a few more hours wouldn''t be enough. Perhaps this was the best performance that could be calculated by the heavens. Ever since he had returned to the Qingquan Sect, Chen Fan had made many of his plans based on the premise that his assistant was at the Pingquan Peak. Actually, I was still thinking of getting some Pill s to give out to the disciples. That way, it could be seen as the starting point for the accumulation of prestige. Chen Fan didn''t have time to display these thoughts, it was such a pity, he even wanted to imitate the other elders lecturing him. To youngsters, it is actually very easy to feed them. If one or two Spiritual Stone can''t do it, then just three or four, and it''s just a small favor, that''s enough to change their attitude. What''s there to be anxious about? When you come back, you''ll still be able to enjoy life. Furthermore, you''ll also have a sufficiently powerful cultivation, so you don''t have to worry about being humiliated by others. Deer God comforted her with his words, but it was hard to say what kind of feeling this was. It was as if he had been abandoned by the Sect, but he still had a heavy responsibility that he couldn''t reveal too much of. How laughable, I''ve been holding it in for tens of thousands of years now, can''t I just hold it in for the next three months? Chen Fan muttered to himself. He almost wanted to give himself a slap, why was he so indecisive, maybe he really had a close relationship with strength. When he was still a Zhi Zun, he had no opponents walking all over the world. Naturally, he had the courage to advance forward, but now, every time he was threatened by a life or death situation, his considerations would be different. It''s good that you have this kind of awareness, those who have achieved great things all have superhuman endurance. You should hurry up and plan out what kind of work you''ll get from the outside world that will give you a headache. That being said, Deer God had already begun to think about it. He could not just waste these three months, cultivation would not randomly increase over time. Chen Fan predicted that there would be less than two days of time remaining before the punishment would be announced, and he would be exiled out of the sect, living and dying by himself. After making some slight adjustments, Chen Fan quickly called Zhao Xu and the Protector Qin over. He had to remind them first, otherwise, this base area might not be able to hold on. Earlier, he had only gone to the Yuan Sect once, and in less than half a month''s time, he had already caused Zhao Xu to bear an enormous pressure. There were even a few Protectors who wanted to secretly sneak into the Pingquan Peak. This time, not only did he have to endure for a little longer, he also had to face the discussion and attack from all over the sect. If they were in the same position, Chen Fan didn''t think that he would be able to withstand it. During this period of time, I might not be using my Sect, so you all don''t need to listen to any rumors or rumors. Why, Alien Minister Chen, are you leaving again? Zhao Xu asked with an anxious expression. He had only been back for a few days. If this continued, he really did not know who Pingquan Peak was. Almost every day, it was him who took care of it, personally planting several acres of spirit farmland. Seeing that he would soon be self-sufficient, he had already exercised the actual authority of the Peak Master. I made a promise to Sect Leader that I would reach the Sixth form of the Foundation Establishment within three months. I had no choice but to go out to look for opportunities. Chen Fan said with difficulty. Originally, he did not plan to hold anything back for Zhao Xu and the others, but after thinking about how the latter was still too weak, he did not have the heart to drag them down with him. This concerned Fifth Elder and the Great Clan Elder. Even the Protector Qin Protectors did not have the qualifications to participate in the high-level competition between them. Three months, six small realms ¡­ Was this not a dream ¡­ Hearing such conditions, Protector Qin couldn''t help but say. He walked over from the Foundation Building Stage step by step, so he knew what kind of price he had to pay for this. If it really came down to it, they would just directly activate the Spell Formation for a few months and not go down there. They would just treat it as their own house arrest and might even do something to Protector Liu and the rest. Although he had the promise of Qian Ming and Lan Yu, Chen Fan was still a little worried. No matter what, he was not in the Qing Xuan Sect, so the Fifth Elder would still be interested in the Pingquan Peak. I''ll remember, even if I don''t need the Sect for a month''s supply, I can still maintain this operation for a few months. Ever since he followed Chen Fan, Zhao Xu had become more and more scheming, judging from the harvests from the spirit fields, he was naturally not worried about food and water, and did not need to worry about cultivation. Of course, all of this was thanks to the Third Elder. If it weren''t for his small treasury, the great protective magical formation wouldn''t have been strengthened. I will pay special attention to the news regarding Sect. There shouldn''t be any big mistakes. Now that Protector Qin mentioned it, he had already placed his Pingquan Peak in two different locations, so he definitely had to hold on inside his cave. His reputation as a protector could not be shaken. Besides, he belonged to the Great Elder''s faction, so he should be able to get some protection. C149 If it was a disciple personally chosen by the Great Clan Elder and Sect Leader, they could properly accept them and bring them to the Pingquan Peak. Whether or not he encountered some difficulties, if there is one, tell us and we will discuss the countermeasures together. Protector Qin continued to ask. He could tell that Chen Fan was different from how he usually was. You don''t need to worry about that. As long as the time is up, the truth will be revealed. On the other hand, Qian Ming and Lan Yu were keeping themselves in suspense, so Chen Fan could only keep Protector Qin in suspense, even he did not know what was going on. On the other hand, Zhao Xu still maintained absolute trust, he did not say much, and only listened to the orders, as long as it was with Chen Fan. His rate of improvement these past few days was almost unimaginable. This was enough to strengthen his conviction. Another two days passed. It seemed like there were no fluctuations. Fifth Elder did not make any provocative gestures. However, everyone knew that there were still undercurrents moving in private. At the same time that the Pingquan Peak was channeled into the Spell Formation, it sealed up the entire area of several tens of kilometers, preventing any other disciples of the Spiritual Peak from entering. In reality, Zhao Xu was the only one. From time to time, Protector Qin would switch shifts with him, but he was still the one who guarded most of the time. He didn''t need to pay attention to any fluctuations in Sect at all, since he was blocked outside the mountain gate anyway. Chen Fan had deliberately severely injured several Yuan Sect disciples and caused great damage to their image and relations with the outside world. On the account that they were still revered, he had been exiled for three months as a punishment. When the sun rose on the third day, a piece of news came from the wind. It quickly spread across the entire Qing Xuan Sect without any warning. As expected, after the Great Clan Elder made his announcement, the entire Qing Xuan Sect entered into a state of intense discussion, with the majority of the people clapping and cheering. What did I say? This brat deserved to be punished, yet he was actually so ruthless to Yuan Sect disciples, he almost threw his entire Qing Xuan Sect inside. It seemed that the Great Clan Elder and the others were wise. Knocking them down on the training grounds, then throwing Chen Fan out. He had finally gotten rid of the nuisance. He would never come back. It would be the end of his luck to stay here for so long. Many young disciples were bewitched by the Protectors under the Fifth Elder. In actuality, they hadn''t really come into contact with Chen Fan at all. When the news reached Zhao Xu''s ears, he and the Protector Qin had an unprecedented tranquility, and were already prepared for it. Unless the Great Clan Elder announced that Chen Fan was being hunted, the two of them would not be able to react at all. Not even four hours had passed, the Great Clan Elder had already specially added another Ancient Token of Grand Master back, and that had cut off Chen Fan''s path to survival. Perhaps his enemies from before were more afraid, afraid that their Qing Xuan Sect would be displeased because of that Ancient Token. Now, the biggest hidden card in his hand had disappeared. Naturally, he didn''t have that many worries. Fifth Elder had also finally started to get restless. When they heard that the Protector Liu had secretly recruited their direct disciples, they wanted to chase after Chen Fan. There was no need for him to be so secretive. He could just directly put it on the surface. After all, that kid was already an ordinary person. Who would care about his title of offering? Even if Yuan Sect can let him go, and the rest of our Qing Xuan Sect have lost several tens of thousands of Spiritual Stone. Very soon, a previous Guardian suddenly appeared in the Qing Xuan Sect, and it seemed that many disciples shared a common hatred for the same enemy. Even they could not explain why they had such an impulse. As for whether or not Protector Liu actually went to chase after him, no one really bothered or investigate. On Pindu Peak, Qian Ming and Lan Yu were laughing sinisterly, it did not look like they were in Senior Expert at all. The big net had already been laid down, and their wish for a hundred years was about to succeed. Although the promise he made to Chen Fan back then was to treat him as the most important chess piece, how could an old fellow like Qian Ming not have something prepared? At this time, Chen Fan had already traveled at least two to three thousand kilometers away, and all that discussion had nothing to do with him anymore. He only thought of it as a rare vacation. He leisurely came to a place he had never been before. Perhaps he had been there ten thousand years ago, but his memories of it had long since faded away. This place was not under the control of Yuan Sect or Hua Ding Sect, and it had long since escaped his grasp. For the next ten days or so, he had been in a state of no fixed residence. Of course, ever since he was revived, he had not found any fixed cave dwelling. He had passed through over a hundred cities. With Chen Fan''s current speed, traveling several thousand kilometers in one day wasn''t a problem. It was simply a simple desire to reach as many places as possible and to take a look at this familiar North Domain. In reality, however, he was very clear that the entire continent was vast, and every inch of it required millions of miles to be counted. Currently, he could only linger in the north. The remaining three positions were either occupied by the Demon Clan s or the barbarians, or were occupied by the followers of the buddhist faith. In short, none of them piqued Chen Fan''s interest. Ten thousand years ago, his rise had been in the Northern language, and he had learned more about the area. Now he was simply recalling those memories. From the Qingquan Sect, it could be seen that they were more or less indirectly related to him, and could even obtain the inheritance of their own disciples. Moreover, if it could be directly linked with an elder, then if it was in the other three regions, the situation would definitely be much more difficult. In any case, things wouldn''t be as easy as it was now. Time flew by, and no one was able to catch him. Since ancient times, there had been many outstanding geniuses. No matter how terrifying the cultivation realm was, no one could withstand the passage of time. It must be known that that had already surpassed the limits of human strength, and had even started a huge battle with the Heavenly Dao, but now, not a single one had survived. When the Cultivation Era had descended, there were many experts who had tried to influence the flow of time. However, they had all ended up in failure and had paid the price with their lives. This was truly a taboo item. In comparison, it was perhaps even more difficult to provoke than the Heavenly Law. Moreover, it was so domineering that it did not care about face or reason. After just half a month of drifting down, Chen Fan''s beard had grown a little. He had seen quite a few people and objects, and was originally worried that his cultivation would increase too quickly, which would cause his dao foundation to become unstable. But now, there was no longer this worry in his mind. Every day, other than activating the Myriad Manifestation Art, he would only use the Pagoda Art to move his body. He had at least performed it tens of thousands of times, and was definitely more proficient than Nangong Xuan. The distance that Chen Fan walked on, was already a long journey that ordinary people would never be able to complete in their lives. Today, he arrived at a vast wasteland. As far as he could see, it was all flat and withered yellow. From time to time, there would also be strange and rugged rocks, but it would be impossible to find even a speck of green. Their life force was almost completely exterminated, and there were even unending cracks in the ground. It seemed as if they had experienced the fierce battle of the Senior Expert before, and the aftermath had directly annihilated this region. He simply descended from the clouds and walked directly across the wasteland. From time to time, he would stop to inspect something, but there was one thing that he could be sure of, and that there would be no signs of human habitation within a thousand li. Since you have nothing better to do, why don''t you go up to the Zhongzhou? Deer God suggested, as he could not help but see Chen Fan being so dejected. Wasting such a good amount of time in the Wasteland was simply suicide. Even the Heaven''s Path incarnation, which was suffering from endless injustice, felt that the situation wasn''t good. No, no, no, the people of Zhongzhou are good spirits, how can a small figure like me go there, it''s better to stay alive. Chen Fan waved his hands. It was not easy for him to escape from the Qing Xuan Sect, he did not do so to send himself to his death. His memories regarding Zhongzhou were still at the stage where Ancient Saint s were everywhere. Although it was not the original era, before he reached the Nascent Infant Stage, he had no intention of rushing over. What''s going on with you recently, did you get charmed by Qian Ming? It would only take three months of exile to deal such a huge blow! Deer God shouted in anger, somewhat disappointed. Originally, he had planned to be able to complete his breakthrough in the next few days. Ah? Chen Fan was a little stunned by the roar, he did not know where the anger came from. Ever since you left the Qing Xuan Sect, you have never truly cultivated, and the Supreme Wu Tian s are not so easily defeated. Taking a step back, even if Qian Ming and Lan Yu managed to trick you, they would at least have gained their freedom. They would no longer have to face the world''s pursuit. Deer God felt that it was a kind of miracle that he had taught him so earnestly and painstakingly. Chen Fan:... It was no wonder he felt that the amount of jokes and gags in the Deer God had lessened these few days. He actually dared to suppress his anger all along. No, I''m looking for the spirit shell hidden deep underground. I have to walk a few more places to grasp it, and it won''t be easy for this thing to be born. A spirit shell? Hearing that, Deer God was stunned, as if he had heard it somewhere before, and subconsciously started to look through his memories. Even the calluses formed from the extremely compressed primordial spirit energy of the earth vein, the value of one would be worth more than tens of thousands of Spiritual Stone. In the past few days, although he seemed to be moving forward in a chaotic and disorderly manner, he had always been wandering at the top of the Earth Vein, changing his position following the flow of the spirit energy. If it was only a few spirit shells, it wouldn''t be enough to tempt him. After all, the sum up was not as rich as the Third Elder''s small treasury. However, along the way, by relying on his meticulous exploration of the Feng Shui lines, he had discovered the existence of at least a hundred spirit shells. Even sacrificing some cultivation time for this was worth it. C150 So you actually hid such a trick. To think that I, an old man, would worry for you for nothing. Deer God''s old face flushed, but he quickly covered it up. There was no doubt about this, the relationship between him and Deer God was one of honor and disgrace, he would definitely use all his strength to think of the latter. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have been so anxious to see Chen Fan act so arrogantly. How is the harvest? Do you want to go down and get them all? Deer God calmed his mind and asked. He was in no hurry to rein in the big fish. Only now did Chen Fan realize that this seemed to be a blind spot in the Deer God, maybe it was really like he said, because the Heavenly Dao did not have much of an impact on this place. It was as if they had found a large amount of spirit shells when the previous Ancient Saint made their breakthrough. They never thought that they would be able to find this today. Before he was sealed by Cao Rui, he had seen a few in his hands, which were coincidentally used to bestow upon other younger generations. Right now, its quality was much worse, and the energy contained within it should have been weakened. It was truly different from back then. Chen Fan sighed, this could be considered a gift from the heavens, but as time passed, or rather, the decline of the body transformation world, even the spirit shell was affected. There were hundreds of them, which was at least several times more numerous than before. Moreover, it was not something that ordinary people could obtain. Right now, Chen Fan had traveled through so many places, and had only simply left behind an imprint. He wouldn''t truly go deep into the veins, as doing so would be too risky. In any case, this was his ready-made fortune, and no one could take it away from him. After all, in today''s Cultivation Realm, not many people knew about the existence of the spirit shell. However, because of Deer God''s reminder, Chen Fan did not continue to drift down. Instead, he chose to stop at a place called ''Gather''er City''. After seeing a lot, he realized that most of these cities were uniform and did not have anything special about them. They were nothing more than simple piles of stones, and then carved with Spell Formation. In comparison to the era when the Ancient Saint s roamed the world ten thousand years ago, there were always many characteristics of strong warriors. Sometimes, when one saw a city, they would be able to immediately identify which almighty individual''s residence it belonged to. Indeed, there were a lot less tricks, and most of them focused on defense. From what he could see, the decline of the Cultivation Realm was truly being displayed everywhere. If it was anyone else who discovered this, they would be somewhat saddened. However, to Chen Fan, this was a better opportunity. The Heavenly Dao was reincarnated, and all living things in the world were the same. From the fluctuations of the spirit energy on the ground, it could be seen that this period of time was a process of constant decline. It was just that the true bottoms had yet to arrive. For Chen Fan, this was an extremely rare opportunity. The reason why he had decided to hibernate for ten thousand years and chose to revive at this node was also due to this consideration. It just so happened that he could take advantage of the momentum and his unparalleled cultivation memories. He was even more familiar with the rhythmic movements of this world, and no one could stop him from rising to greatness. I wonder what rank of Spiritual Being will appear this time. Chen Fan muttered to himself, the reason why he stopped was because he heard that Spirit Gathering City was going to hold Auction, and its scale was much larger than before. Come to think of it, this Jadeite City could not be considered a big city in the entire North Domain, but it was the number one person within a thousand kilometers. Many seniors had gathered here, so there should be a Nascent Infant Stage Expert here as well. With Chen Fan and Deer God''s eyesight, there weren''t many Spiritual Being that could move them in this world. They couldn''t casually find a city and bring them out. At most, he would only be a part of the heart refining process in the mortal world. To see how much Auction of this level could possibly be used, he still had the Third Elder''s treasury as his foundation, so he had nothing to worry about. I heard that the other Spiritual Masters will take out a Heavy Treasure that has been refined for over a hundred years. Let''s quickly go and take a look. At most, we''ll just watch the show. That kind of treasure would need to be in the tens of thousands without a single snack. It''s not something a small figure like us would be able to get a glimpse of. Not only that, there were also the thousand year old medicinal herbs that Spirit Master Chang Shan had obtained from his Wilderness exploration. Hearing the discussions of the cultivators in the city, Chen Fan only laughed faintly, the so called good fortune, was probably just a stunt created by the host of Auction. As long as enough people poured in, they would earn even more, even more than the commission on the auction. Yi Bao Zhai! Looking at the signboard in front of him, these words could be said to have been carved with a silver hook. There was a tinge of vitality in them and a majestic aura was faintly discernible. They were the main organizers of this auction. There was some absolute authority in the entire Jadeite City, and it was pretty much a middle ranking sect. To Chen Fan, who often traveled through Yuan Sect and Qing Xuan Sect, it really wasn''t much. The disciples who guarded the gate had also reached the realm of the third transformation of Core Condensating. If it was any other sect, they would have been treated as an outstanding seed and even advanced to the level of a protector. Of course, this didn''t exclude the fact that Yi Baozhai was deliberately trying to show off his strength. At the very least, he had already achieved his goal of showing off his strength, so a lot of external Cultivator s carefully walked in. It might have been written by the ancestor of Yi Baozhai, but even after so many years had passed, it still held a great threat. With these two gateposts here, he didn''t do anything and directly left an imprint of Yi Bao Zhai not being allowed to provoke them. This was also to prevent anyone from causing trouble using his Auction. Chen Fan was also extremely generous, he raised his hand and gave over a hundred Spiritual Stone that had gained the qualification to be a VIP on the second floor. A servant brought him into the private room. Moreover, there were two women dressed in revealing clothing at the door. They had extremely sexy bodies and looked like they were in their twenties. They were quite pretty and this was the special treatment Yi Baotao had specially arranged for the distinguished guests. Although his cultivation wasn''t all that high, he cultivated a bizarre bewitching technique. Just a casual gaze from him had the ability to captivate people''s souls, enough to make many men''s eyes red. As long as he paid a little more price, he would be able to temporarily accept this pair of beautiful sisters. It could be said that they were extremely considerate to him, Chen Fan noticed that there were already many distinguished guests present, and pulled them into his embrace. This little brother, if you need anything, you can just tell me directly. Without waiting for Chen Fan to sit down, one of the lady took the initiative to approach him, holding onto a fruit plate, she said with a smile. They had all gone through special training, and their observation skills far exceeded that of an ordinary person. Especially when they saw that Chen Fan was so young yet had the ability to pay the price to be a VIP, he was definitely a child from a Venerable family. There was a reason why Yi Baozhai could make the business become the dominating force in the entire city. If it were any other cultivator, they would have been unable to hold back when faced with this young girl''s embrace. Even if their dao heart was firm, they would have already obeyed. Since it was just a session of Auction, there was nothing to delay, but it was a pity that Chen Fan was not interested in it at all, because the Holy Maiden beside him was too outstanding. He had personally witnessed Nangong Xuan''s recovery from the ''peerless state'' that frightened the dog to the state of being a true devastatingly beautiful woman. With such a huge gap, even his sense of aesthetics had been changed by a lot. Go on, get another man. Although he had a similar experience before, he didn''t know why, but he felt extremely awkward today. He even regretted using such a face to show his worth. He should have changed back into a white-haired old man. This would have saved him a lot of trouble. Ah? The woman was stunned. She had been in Yi Baotao for so many years, but this was the first time she had heard such a request. I said, "Can you please switch over to another man? You guys are so cool, yet your hearts are chilled just by looking at him." Chen Fan said faintly. When this reason came out, the temperature of the entire room seemed to have dropped by quite a bit. Woman:... Seeing that Chen Fan indeed did not have any intentions in that regard, the lady also left in a displeased manner, and finally calmed down. Only then did he notice the furnishings around him. They were extremely simple, but were filled with luxury. The floor was covered with a soft blanket, and on the deck chair, there was even the fur of Demonic Beast. Lying there lazily, it was extremely comfortable. He could see the entire stands and also observe the situation in the inner court below. His line of sight was very wide. In the center was a pearl the size of a washbasin. Although its rank was not high, the gentle light it emitted caused one to feel at ease. This would be more conducive to making a decision. After all, the number of Spiritual Being in the audience would easily reach over ten thousand at any price. If one was not calm, it was very likely that there would be a negative impact. Looks like my Spiritual Stone s have not been spent in vain, not bad not bad. Chen Fan laughed, he did not want to be disturbed, furthermore, he was a rich man and needed to enjoy himself from time to time. The Spell Formation s blocking the Spiritual Consciousness''s detection were around them, so neither of the two neighboring rooms could hear what the other party was saying. Even the Deer God was very satisfied with this place, but he did not rashly appear. If Yi Bao Zhai was prepared and kept an eye on them, this could happen. There was still about four hours of time before Auction began. As the Cultivator poured in endlessly, Chen Fan simply lied down and had a beautiful sleep. C151 Ever since he regained consciousness, he had never felt so comfortable and relaxed, to the point where even Chen Fan wanted to relax. Even by relying on the Storage Bag at his waist, he could live a life without worries. It was quite a pitiful thing to talk about. A dignified Supreme Wu Tian could not be so relaxed within the Sect set up by his own disciples. Instead, he had to spend a large number of Spiritual Stone to feel comfortable millions of miles away. When Chen Fan opened his eyes again, there was already an old man with a ruddy complexion who looked to be around sixty years old standing in the audience. Fellow dao friends, let this old man preside over today''s Auction, time is of the essence, if there is a place that is not well-received, please forgive me on account of Yi Baozhai''s face. He was honored as the Elder Song and had already retired two years ago. Coincidentally, his Auction was relatively high, so he invited him out. The Elder Song had a lot of experience in managing Auction, so he was sure that Yi Bao Zhai had received some good stuff. It was rumored that every single round of his Auction was extremely astonishing, and the prices were all very fair. Elder Song, we have all trusted you. We have already waited for such a long time, let''s hurry up and start! Everyone was somewhat surprised to see this. They could not help but look forward to it even more. It must be because Yi Baozhai was worried about those young auctioneers, so he could roughly guess a lot of things. The Elder Song nodded his head and waved his hand. Immediately, a few beautiful women dressed in qipao stood out and held onto jade plates. The first Spiritual Being to start today was called Ghastly Puppet Arrow. Elder Song picked up the arrow in the jade plate. It was about a foot long, showing a pale white color. If one did not observe carefully, they would think that it was a set of bones from a Demonic Beast. This thing should have come from some kind of extremely cold place and had been refined by corpse aura for dozens of years. As long as it was shot out, it would turn into a ready-made puppet. Speaking of which, this Elder Song''s cultivation was not low, he had already reached the Aurous Core stage, and adding the fact that he was the only one in the entire Jadeite City that had been appraised, it gave him a lot of prestige in the city. In addition to the endless corrosion from the corpse poison, after this old man''s personal appraisal, it''s impossible for experts below the Golden Core Stage to resist, and it can be used as a life-saving trump card. When the fellows below heard the introductions, they were all stunned. They never thought that the Spiritual Being that came up would be such an expensive item, they thought it would only be a side dish, and would be treated as a feast by the ordinary Auction. Very quickly, Elder Song set a price, neither high nor low, which was enough to make many guys who came just to watch the show back, and start bidding with three thousand Spiritual Stone. 3300! 3500, I want it! No one is allowed to snatch it from me! Three thousand eight hundred Spiritual Stone, just treat it as giving Elder Song some face, the Ghastly Puppet Arrow is just right for my cultivation, just give up on my cultivation. Someone immediately started to bid, of course it was the people sitting below the stage, every bid increase was very cautious, controlling the range of a few hundred Spiritual Stone. It was impossible for the distinguished guests on the second floor to care about such things. The Spiritual Being s, who were interested in them, would only appear in at least an hour. However, there was an exception. Ever since the appearance of Elder Song, Chen Fan happily watched the lively scene, and more or less, wanted to participate in another round. Do you think this Ghastly Puppet Arrow can be modified any more? The runes on it should be able to change. Chen Fan thought that perhaps he would also need to have an incarnation. Like this, when he meets danger, he might really be able to use this opportunity to protect his little life. One had to first look at the original body first, and not be able to think of such a thing just by thinking about it. The Deer God said. He wanted to follow his intentions and directly rob all of Yi Bao Zhai''s treasury. At this time, after a few rounds of bidding, the Ghastly Puppet Arrow also broke through to four thousand Spiritual Stone, for cultivators with low cultivation, this was indeed a good opportunity. Four thousand three hundred and thirty, none of you are allowed to fight with me for it. Come on, you brat, you already have a lot of treasures, leave me with the Ghastly Puppet Arrow, there are four thousand and six hundred Spiritual Stone. There were even some people who argued about this, but in the end, a middle-aged man was unable to surpass 5000 points after accepting it at 4900 high prices. Although after hosting Auction for so many years, with just a few thousand Spiritual Stone, to the Elder Song, it was still a small number, but at least he had gotten started. He had learned quite a few things in advance. This time, the level of Spiritual Being that he had prepared greatly shocked him. It was a long time before he could finally calm his heart and prepare his mind. After making a preliminary estimate of the total value of the transaction, the Elder Song intended to use this Auction as the exit point for his hundred years of cultivation, marking a perfect end to it and never coming out of the mountain again. It would not be an exaggeration to say that a harvest like this was more than enough to cover at least ten years of his previous salary. Until he was buried and settled in peace, he would still be the richest person in the city. This object looked ordinary, it was a few Jindan Stage experts working together to kill a Demon King and take out its beast horn. Adding on the fact that the Ghost Dao cultivators had personally refined it for a long time, it was similar to the Ghastly Puppet Arrow. Elder Song picked up the other Spiritual Being in the jade plate. It had a thick horn on its head and its entire body was pitch-black. This old man has personally suggested that if one cultivates the most masculine and masculine arts, then one shouldn''t participate in any bidding. It doesn''t have much practical use; on the contrary, it would affect the stability of one''s cultivation base. Although he said that, everyone could tell that the value of this thing was much higher than the Ghastly Puppet Arrow, not only did it have the attack power of the Demon Clan, it also had the support of a rare ghost cultivator, and could increase the price by a lot. As for Elder Song''s suggestion, the masculine aura had always been the ghost cultivator''s nemesis. The two were incompatible and extremely repulsive, just like restraint between ice and fire. Elder Song, just tell us how much you want to bid. Before we reach the late stage of Auction, we will definitely be able to bear it. The urging voices came from below, all of these were just there as preparation, specially for the normal cultivators below, the Elder Song was not angry, and laughed in reply. Looks like this old man''s eyesight isn''t bad, to be able to be valued by this rich man at such a young age, I won''t hold anything back, just five thousand Spiritual Stone. 5300! Five thousand five hundred! You really don''t know what''s good for you. Such a good thing should at least start at six thousand. Elder Song has already pressured the price to a sufficiently low level. As expected, this strange-looking beast horn had also attracted intense competition. In order to understand the true mysteries behind ghost cultivators'' methods, many people were willing to throw away large sums of money. In a short quarter of an hour, it had already risen to over seven thousand Spiritual Stone, and a Rogue Cultivator was still incomparably happy when he successfully placed it in his bag. The third auction item also has a close relationship with the Demon Clan. The Jindan Tri-Transformation is inclined towards one of the fire attribute Demonic Beast''s inner pellet. This time, Elder Song was holding onto a small toy the size of a pigeon egg, but even from a distance, he could still feel the rich life force it held. The starting price was eight thousand Spiritual Stone. In the current Cultivation Realm, the majority of the people were restless and restless. Most people were pursuing a rapid improvement in their cultivation, wanting to attract as much external power as possible without caring about the consequences for the dao foundation. As the essence of a Demonic Beast, not only did this inner pellet possess an innate brute strength, it was also extremely helpful for body and cultivation. If by chance, it could increase a Longevity''s strength by a few years. As long as this thing appeared, it would definitely be fought over as a windfall. It could be said to be the fastest way to become a Cultivator, and consuming Spiritual Stone for that was also worth it. Quick, quick, quick, what''s waiting for is this Orb! I''ll offer nine thousand Spiritual Stone! Before the Elder Song even finished speaking, they had just announced the item being auctioned, and someone had immediately mentioned a thousand Spiritual Stone s. The place immediately became lively. Ten thousand! Who would have thought that one day, I would also sell so many Spiritual Stone in the auction house. Eleven thousand, the Orb is definitely mine! No matter the time, whether he lived or died, the Demonic Beast had an extreme attraction and the price he raised each time increased by a lot. Thinking back to how he had just arrived at the Jadeite City, and heard about the news regarding Auction, Chen Fan had only wanted to come here for fun, but he didn''t expect to slap his own face so quickly. Three Spiritual Being s in a row, he wanted to take them all. Moreover, he knew very well that this was not a simple moment of curiosity. Rather, he was truly quite interested in them, and even instinctively planned out their uses in his mind. The Ghastly Puppet Arrow was used as a trump card, without needing to say anything, that beast horn could also emit unique sound waves, which was convenient for large-scale attacks, allowing it to display its greatest characteristics. If the Demonic Beast''s core was in his hands, it would definitely be more valuable than those guys. If the Demonic Beast had a consciousness, and knew that he was about to become a part of the battle force of a Martial Saint, it was likely that it would not reject him. Just as the middle-aged man had said, it was only the first half of the trial now, and the real Spiritual Being had not appeared yet, so he had to wait until the last moment to take action. Not long after, after another round of intense competition, the inner pellet of the Demonic Beast had a new owner. Fifteen thousand of them, was also according to the expectations of normal Golden Core Stage experts. They had bitterly cultivated for so many years, if the price was really set, it would be at this location. After all, there was a world of difference between Nascent Infant and Aurous Core stage. It was not just a simple change of two words, and every Aurous Core stage cultivator had the chance to make a breakthrough. C152 At that time, no one would use Spiritual Stone to measure them. As the Dominator that looked down on all living things, they would also have the qualifications to establish their own sect and become the next Patriarch. Haha, what a coincidence. This fourth item, there might be quite a few female cultivators who liked it. The atmosphere immediately changed. It could be seen that the Elder Song was not weak at all, as he picked up a jade hairpin, it was extremely beautiful. It was unknown what kind of gem it was carved out of. Furthermore, he meticulously outlined the appearance of a phoenix. It was vivid and lifelike, and a bunch of grape-like decorations appeared on its tail. It was translucent and had a jade-green luster, giving it a unique sense of beauty. To be honest, this hairpin was more defensive and could withstand continuous attacks from peak Foundation Establishment cultivators. If it was slightly harmful, it could also be used as a hidden weapon. This is the specialty of Elder Song''s Auction management, and from time to time, you would even add your own insights. With your lack of experience, you would have a better understanding of the Spiritual Being, and you could also learn from those ordinary cultivators. As everyone knew, spiritual treasures like these were always extremely rare, and were even more expensive than ghost cultivators. Elder Song revealed a smile that only men would understand. In this aspect, regardless of age, who would have the free time to actually refine such a thing? After the appraisal from the old man and the other auctioneers, this hairpin used three thousand Spiritual Stone as its foundation. This was definitely a decoration, it did not seem useful. In the eyes of many, this was equivalent to throwing away several thousand Spiritual Stone s for nothing. He could only accept the attack of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, which was completely useless. Many of the people present had reached the Foundation Building Stage, and logically speaking, three hundred Spiritual Stone were not even worth selling. Even so, the Elder Song was still very confident. He calmly walked to the next cloud disk, and waited for the release of money that was not inferior to the inner core of the Demonic Beast to appear. Old man, hurry up and buy this hairpin for me. At least double the price. Otherwise, don''t even think about entering your home ever again! Stupid ghost, look at that little vixen calling out a price. She looks so dignified, she''s not worthy of this hairpin at all. Hmph hmph, only with this old lady''s looks can she match this hairpin. You bunch of rouge fans know yourselves well. This hairpin was meant to be used by a large audience, either as a euphemistic plea or as a tiger-like order. All in all, they wanted to stick it in their own heads ¡­ Regardless of male or female, they would still have thoughts of competing. However, at this moment, it was very thorough, causing the male disciples to hesitate. After seeing the hairpin, they immediately regretted bringing their female disciples here. Who knew how many times he had cursed in his heart? Who would be so bored to do something so silly like this? This kind of thing has no practical value, why don''t we use these thousands of Spiritual Stone to eat something good, at least we can satisfy our stomachs. Sigh, he had been really nervous recently. Wasn''t Brother Wang from next door sick? He gave him a lot of Spiritual Stone, so he really wasn''t rich. Be good, let''s be obedient and not fight with those mortals. Without this hairpin, you are still the most beautiful person in the world. They could only speak words of consolation, trying their best to console her. How could they listen to her words? At that time, they had all turned into hegemons. You piece of trash, if you can''t even satisfy such a small request, then say whatever it is you want to say to me to stay with me for a long time. What do you mean Brother Wang next door? I can see that you clearly have a little wife outside, otherwise how could you be so stingy? You''ve never blinked when you buy things before. Many male cultivators looked at each other and could see helplessness on their faces. However, most of the pain was from the fact that the Spiritual Stone s were not from the strong wind. As expected, Elder Song seemed to be an experienced person with a glance. He had seen this kind of scene at least a hundred times and had already predicted what kind of outcome it would lead to. After about half a quarter of an hour of silence, there were intermittent shouts of bids from the audience. If one listened carefully, one would find that there was still a pained tone mixed within. 3500 ¡­ Eight hundred Spiritual Stone. I''ll join in the fun too, four thousand! Why are you all so stingy to your wives? Four thousand five hundred! There was a woman holding her husband''s waist. She didn''t seem to care about her relationship. Her usually gentle hand was even more powerful than a pair of pincers. The man''s sweat dripped from the pain, but he did not dare to retaliate. He was afraid that if they called out a price for him, he would really be beheaded. He was really grinding his teeth as he spoke. One word at a time, and they were both still competing. The scene was very exciting. How about you help Nangong Xuan? In the private room on the second floor, those distinguished guests were still motionless. Their female members of the family did not lose their composure because of the few thousand Spiritual Stone, but Deer God did say this all of a sudden. If you let her grandfather give you the position of second in command, with your great Hua Ding Sect, you will be surnamed Chen. Chen Fan:... He watched with relish, but that did not mean that he had reached the point where he could only survive by relying on money. Earlier, he had always deliberately avoided receiving Nangong Xuan''s help. He was a high and mighty Holy Maiden, how could he fancy such a small thing? The quality was too low, giving it out would not be enough to humiliate others. Although they were both Supreme Wu Tian s, and their titles were several times better than Holy Maiden s ¡­ But at the moment, Chen Fan''s weakness still existed for a long time. Tsk, if you don''t try, how do you know? You have to believe in the wisdom of the ancients. The Deer God was still unrelenting, he shrieked as he imagined Chen Fan giving him a hairpin as a gift and laughed out loud. I am the ancients. Chen Fan was too lazy to bother with the old fellow, he had nothing to say. His Spiritual Stone could not be wasted, he needed to use it on the blade. Damn it, this young master is going all out! Seven thousand Spiritual Stone, is there still anyone left to fight for! The third time I asked, since no one else raised the price, this old man congratulates this little brother for obtaining a jade hairpin, hehe. Elder Song was playing with the treasure as well, so he was very satisfied with the price. It exceeded some of the psychological expectations. In the end, a slightly younger man saved everyone''s lives. In fact, it was even two times higher than the starting price. Countless gazes immediately turned towards him. They were two completely different faces. The young man''s face was filled with despair, while the lady beside him was extremely beautiful and proud, like a winning white swan. While she was receiving endless admiration and admiration, Yi Baozhai was very considerate. He placed the hairpin on her head, and after a moment, it became even brighter. As for how this pitiful young man would regret it, it was unknown. In any case, their relationship must have been incomparably stable, especially after seeing that hairpin ¡­ C153 This fellow is quite skilled at deceiving others. Seems like he has done quite a bit of deceiving and is on par with you. However, Chen Fan''s words were meant for the Deer God to hear. Not only was the latter not angry, he was actually quite happy. What do you mean bluffing? Look at those old swindlers outside, which one of them isn''t doing this? It''s a fair deal. The Deer God defended himself, and Chen Fan was too lazy to bother with him. The two of them knew each other well, there was no point in exposing each other''s identity. However, in Chen Fan''s eyes, the various methods used by the Elder Song were indeed worthy of the title ''brilliant''. The atmosphere of the whole auction was stirred up. Everyone was excited and in high spirits. Even if they had to throw a lot of money, they would not regret it. The liveliness did not manage to tell much, but Elder Song managed to cause so many people to pulse at the same frequency. Furthermore, it created a lot of bickering in succession, so the overall trend was rising. Even if they had no interest in the few items being auctioned off, they would involuntarily try to get their hands on the item with the help of the surrounding atmosphere. Let alone the ingenuity of the hairpin, it forced the male disciples to chop off their hands crazily. Their hearts were aching and they could tell that the profits were much higher than the previous Spiritual Being s. Overall, to be able to invite the Elder Song to be the host of this session''s Auction, the amount of the deal could at least increase by thirty to forty percent, which showed how capable he was. This was something that Daoist Master Changshan had unintentionally searched from a senior''s cave while he was training his Wilderness. After this old man''s personal appraisal, it should be around the high-grade Profound Rank. Elder Song brandished the three foot long Lex Sabre, but did not actually pour it in. Instead, he gave it a symbolic dance, allowing him to see the few gems embedded near the sword sheath. Moreover, the material of this Pure Yang Sword was extraordinary, it could release a high temperature of at least 3000 degrees at any time, and could even burn the void, as for the waving of the Sword Intent, it would depend on everyone''s cultivation. This kind of magical equipment with dual offensive effects was the most popular. Because the refining process was extremely difficult, it required sufficient comprehension of the fire attribute energy. Thus, the amount of fire attribute energy it required was not widespread outside. Even if someone did manage to get it, it was unlikely that they would choose to auction it. It would be better to keep it for themselves than to sell it. Elder Song, are those beads related to volcanoes? Why is there a wave of heat coming from so far away? Below the grandstands, the cultivators sitting in the first row shouted loudly. They were the closest ones to the ring, and could clearly see it. Naturally, they also felt it strongly. What this little brother said was right. Indeed, the Pure Yang Sword''s origin is related to volcanoes. According to Taoist Changshan, these gems were formed after the magma was compressed for a thousand years. In fact, after the Elder Song took over the Pure Yang Sword, he even made a suggestion to Taoist Changshan that if the treasure beads and the sword body were auctioned off separately, he would be able to get even more benefits. It was a pity that he did not succeed even after expending a great amount of effort. These precious beads were embedded into the sword, and it was as if they had grown roots. No matter what he did, it was impossible to get them off the sword. Back then, that senior had used an unimaginable method to fuse the sharp aura of the sword with the Lava Pearl. As a result, the two types of energy were on par with each other. The Elder Song did not directly point it out, but secretly expressed a point. The Pure Yang Sword was classified as a high-grade Profound Ranked Spirit Weapon, and when it was swung out, the true combat power would double, and it would probably reach the Earth Ranked Spirit Weapon. I didn''t say anything, Daoist Master Changshan had indeed reaped some benefits. All these years, he had brought many Heavy Treasure with him whenever he went out to train. Ai, it would be great if I could possess the unrivalled power of his elder. One man, one sword, and I can walk alone across the wasteland. It was already not bad for him to be able to take out all these Spiritual Being s and auction them off. That kind of realm was not one that anyone could reach. Many cultivators discussed below. It sounded like Daoist Master Chang Shan was very famous, and from the very beginning when they first entered the auction, someone had already talked about it. Indeed, he did not let them down. Not bad, not bad, looks like this kind of small place is really a den of crouching tigers and hidden dragons, to actually have this kind of Lex Sabre. Chen Fan was even more surprised. According to the classification of the quality of the treasures, they should not have appeared in such a small city. Sure enough, when his gaze swept across that floor, he could already see many restless fellows. Their eyes were all flickering with a bright light, representing their desires. If he could get this Pure Yang Sword in his hands, his combat power would at least double. This way, he could harvest even more medicinal herbs and Spiritual Being, and the benefits he would receive afterwards would be even more endless. This item is priced at ten thousand Spiritual Stone s. If anyone is interested, you can bid. Because of his original intention, even the Elder Song felt that this price was rather reasonable. If he could auction them off separately with one sword and two bodies, he was confident that he could raise another five or six thousand Spiritual Stone. Regardless of whether it was the Sword Intent or the high temperature, they would all be very popular among these guys. Thirteen thousand pills! No matter what, it was brought out by Daoist Master Chang Shan at the risk of his life. He should at least give the old man some face, let me add another 3000! How laughable, just with your pettiness, you don''t want to participate in an auction of this level, I bid twenty thousand Spiritual Stone! Under the deliberate arrangements of the Elder Song, there would usually be three or four ordinary Spiritual Being, and then there would be a burst of money like the Pure Yang Sword, which suppressed a few cultivators as they shouted their prices. Most of these were around the Core Formation Stage, and they needed the Pure Yang Sword to increase their combat strength in order to prepare for the next step in breaking through to the Aurous Core stage. If it was a lower level Foundation Establishment cultivator, there would be no need to fight for it. Not only were their financial resources limited, but their cultivation base was also unable to handle a Xuan grade Magic Treasure. Even if he had to stake it all and spend a huge sum of money, it was still unknown whether he would be able to keep it or not. Almost every time his Auction ended, there would always be people who would cut his beard halfway. Within a few short increases, the price had already risen to more than thirty thousand Spiritual Stone s. It could be seen how passionate these people were towards the Pure Yang Sword. This person was rather famous in the city. He was not young, and with his peak Core Condensating cultivation, he could be considered one of the few experts within a hundred miles. When he attacked, many people would have to retreat. F * ck, why does this old fellow insist on getting the Pure Yang Sword? Thirty three thousand, I want to see if you want to add more! 35,000! Ah!" ''Forget it. This kind of opportunity can only be found by chance and not sought. I don''t know when I''ll be able to find it again. 36,000 Spirit Stones! They were also cultivators from the first few rows, and were at odds with the old man. At this point, no one had much room left, and they had only managed to accumulate so much wealth over the course of their lives. On top of that, the Pure Yang Sword did have an unparalleled attraction and no one wanted to give up easily. Just like that, it continued to rise higher and higher, and the smile on Elder Song''s face became even wider. 40,000 Spiritual Stone! After hesitating for a long time, the old man said his bottom line. This was already the highest limit of his wealth, and if there was anyone else who wanted to compete for it, he could only give up. With regards to that, the few people who were just bidding hesitated. To buy the Pure Yang Sword at such a high price, they all had to weigh the price first to see if the amount of Spiritual Stone s flower was worth it or not. 40,000 Spiritual Stone, is there anyone else who can raise the price? Elder Song asked again. The entire place was silent, the old man was also overjoyed, it seemed like there were no more competitors, this Pure Yang Sword was destined to be his. Suddenly, he called out from the private room on the second floor. His tone was lazy and he sounded very casual. Fifty thousand. Hearing this, the old man''s entire body shook and he could only sit down dejectedly. He could only be considered an expert amongst these ordinary cultivators and was not yet qualified to compete with the distinguished guests on the second floor. The rest of the cultivators who were still interested in the Pure Yang Sword all remained silent. No one would offend them because of a magic treasure. Haha, who dares to snatch something that this Young Lord has set his eyes on? A young man was lazily lying on a rattan chair, accompanied by several young girls dressed in revealing clothing. They were attending to him as they held spirit fruits in their hands and slowly delivered them into his mouth. To him, directly asking for ten thousand Spiritual Stone s was not a big deal. It was as if he was drinking water and eating, a sign that he was determined to get the Pure Yang Sword. When Young Lord Liu made his move, naturally those scum would all retreat. How would they have the qualifications to be compared with you ¡­ Hearing this, one of the lackeys on the side immediately opened his mouth and flattered him. However, before he could finish his words, he heard another voice coming from the arena. Fifty thousand one Spiritual Stone. It also sounded very lazy. When they looked towards the source of the noise, they found that it was actually right next to the room they had just been in. The cultivators below the stage were all watching with interest. He hadn''t thought that the Pure Yang Sword would alarm the two honored guests. Their home ground should be Earth Grade Magic Treasures. He hadn''t expected that they would fight over each other so quickly. What? There are actually people who dare to go against this Young Lord''s intentions? This young man immediately became anxious and his face slightly changed. No one had ever dared to snatch food in front of him before. Fifty-five thousand! To this Young Lord, Spiritual Stone was just a number. It was an increase of 10% without any hesitation. Fifty-five thousand and one. It was another drifting voice. This time, it was even weaker, as if it was very weak. Elder Song, is this a bit inappropriate? Someone asked. Since the start of this Auction, there had never been a situation where every single one of them was added together. No matter how many thousands or tens of thousands of Spiritual Stone, who would care about the difference between one or two of them? Elder Song was also a little speechless. In his many years of hosting Auction, he had rarely encountered such a situation. C154 There was no minimum price set in the auction house. In theory, even half a Spiritual Stone would be fine. From a certain point of view, the Elder Song would always be happy to have a VIP competition. Every time, he would be able to raise the price to a very high level, so he would naturally not care about the rules. The reason he raised his voice was so that the few people in the room could hear him. He was a reputable and influential person, and used such a small amount of Spiritual Stone to raise the price to show that he was humiliating them. Sixty thousand! In the room, the expression of the young man changed drastically as he fiercely spoke, scaring the two young girls to the point that their faces turned deathly pale. 60,000 yuan for one pill. Soon, a reply came from the side. The scene immediately turned into an uproar, and everyone could not help but be in an uproar. This was already a good show. Coincidentally, that was the room Chen Fan was in. It was only a simple sword, so he did not mind, but after adding in the few orbs, he was slightly moved. Just like that, they went through another two rounds of competition. No matter how angry the young man was, Chen Fan was only asking for a higher price. In this world, to be able to take out the benefits from Supreme Wu Tian''s Storage Bag, she was afraid that she had not been born yet. There wouldn''t be anyone ten thousand years ago, and there definitely wouldn''t be anyone present right now. This time, it was really worth it. There should have been a good show to watch. If I had known earlier, I would have joined in as well. He did not know who exactly were the gods in these two rooms. The sixty thousand Spiritual Stone s had already exceeded the limit of the Pure Yang Sword. There was really no need to continue bidding. At their level, they wouldn''t care about any Spiritual Stone, fighting for a piece of face. If they got angry at that time, they might even break the Spring Line. Sigh, the world of those rich people is not something a nameless nobody like us can understand. While they were discussing, they were also guessing the identity of the Young Lord and Chen Fan. The Treasure Pavilion had done all they could to keep every guest''s identity a secret. As long as they entered the room, unless they wanted to identify themselves, no Spiritual Consciousness would be able to enter. Even the voices calling out prices wouldn''t be able to tell if they were male or female. In this way, it would guarantee their absolute safety. These distinguished guests would not have to worry about being intercepted halfway if they were to spend tens of thousands of Spiritual Stone s to purchase the Spiritual Being. Actually, everyone had misunderstood Chen Fan''s intentions. He had no enmity with the fellow beside him, and had never met him before. Naturally, there would not be any conflicts or conflicts between them. It was just a pure unarmed object that wanted to obtain a defensive magical equipment. Who would have thought that such a fellow would jump out and take the bait? It was truly an unintentional attempt. Young Lord, we still have to keep the last item at the end, the Pure Yang Sword. He didn''t dare to make too much noise as he was afraid of angering the former. This time, without the help of his seniors, he would naturally listen to everything he said. Is it up to you, or is it up to me? The young man turned around and slapped him with his palm. He didn''t listen to her advice at all. This brat was like a little emperor within the family, and no one had ever dared to disobey him. Chen Fan''s actions undoubtedly caused him to lose face, and he had to strike back with an even higher price. A hundred thousand! He had directly broken through to the one hundred thousand mark, making the Elder Song almost want to laugh out loud. In his estimation, it should be at most fifty thousand. It was no more, it was just a simple Lex Sabre, there was no meaning more than its original value. They had thought that a weak voice would come from the private room at the side, but unexpectedly, Chen Fan suddenly said that. Being able to perform such a small interlude during the intense competition was also not bad. After Elder Song asked a few more times, he finally announced the location of the Pure Yang Sword. He was sure that Chen Fan still wanted to increase the price again, but in the latter''s opinion, even if his family wanted to buy the Pure Yang Sword, it was not a big problem. If he really had that thought, he would not need to spend so many Spiritual Stone s to train one by himself. He was only slightly angry at the Young Lord, and decided to kill him halfway to seize his opportunity. A hundred thousand Spiritual Stone, this high-grade Profound Rank Lex Sabre belonged to this distinguished guest. The Young Lord was first happy, but then he was enraged. He couldn''t take back what he had just said, it was originally only fifty thousand Spiritual Stone, but it had doubled the number of things he could solve. He thought that Chen Fan was doing this on purpose, and if not for the people around him stopping him, he would have rushed out to find the latter to argue with. Bastard, you actually made me spend so many Spiritual Stone, find out who he is, and you definitely cannot let him go! This Young Lord did not care about the Treasure Pavilion''s rules at all. He was already used to being domineering, and the followers below him all had difficult expressions on their faces. Chen Fan didn''t realize that he had unknowingly made an enemy of himself. Of course, even if he knew the background of the other party, he wouldn''t care. A mere Young Lord of a small city, how powerful could their power be? If not for this Auction, the two of them simply wouldn''t have had the chance to interact. After that, there were another ten or so Spiritual Being s in a row. Chen Fan was also completely free to do anything, and after a few more moves, he could compete with the other distinguished guests beside him for them, and obtained a few Spiritual Being s. Most of them were extremely unorthodox methods. It was impossible for him to encounter them using normal methods, and it was also worth him using his capital. There was a total of over a hundred thousand Spiritual Stone that he had thrown in. He was also very satisfied with the items exchanged. Although they were still useless now, there would come a day when he could use them for alchemy or other godly weapons. As the Auction gradually entered its later stages, the Spiritual Being s that appeared became higher and higher in grade. Looking at the ordinary cultivators below, they had not spoken for a long time. This level of competition far exceeded their financial limit. They could only continue to watch the show, not to mention that they did not have the guts to participate. The people in these rooms were all important figures. Ladies and gentlemen, the next auction item should have been the last item to be auctioned, but for some reason, it could only be placed here first. A light yellow scroll appeared in Elder Song''s hands. It looked to be about the same age as the ancient books. Countless pairs of eyes were drawn over. Previously, they had heard that a high ranking Heavy Treasure had appeared on this session of Auction. Listening to Elder Song''s words, it seemed like this was the item that was rumored to be said. The Senior Expert in the private room also stared at his palm. After waiting for a long time, they finally arrived at their home ground. This object had many mysterious engravings on it. Although the old me and a few other appraisers had looked through it many times and searched through many records, they were still unable to find the true meaning behind it. Elder Song had shamed himself for so many years with his Auction, that the number of Spiritual Being in his possession had to be at least ten thousand. In this aspect, he was definitely number one in the entire city. If even he was unable to determine the origin of this scroll, it would already explain how mysterious it was. But according to the Treasure Pavilion''s judgement, and with the help of our seniors, there are only two possibilities for these lines to be deciphered. One is some sort of powerful skill, or a high-grade earth-step one. Secondly, the inheritance of one of the peak Nascent Infant experts was inscribed on the scroll. Its strength was not inferior to that of the Yuan Sect Elder, and this scroll was personally left behind by him. As his voice fell, the sound of gulping could be heard. Whether it was an Earth Rank cultivation technique or the Nascent Infant Stage Expert Endowment technique, they were all fatal temptations. No matter if it was a treasure Spiritual Pill, or a bizarre technique, it was common for two ranks to be at the Profound Yellow level, or it was possible to buy it from the Auction just by spending a little more money, but after reaching the Earth level, it was hard to find money. Since there was no high level cultivation technique to support it, it also meant that there was a limit to the way of cultivation. For example, a profound rank cultivation technique could at most only support it up to the Jindan Stage. Most people would wear out their potential when using Core Condensating. If they did not have a special chance, their fighting strength would not increase even if they died. Not to mention the second possibility. Obtaining an inheritance meant that from the very beginning, there would be an all-round training system left behind by the seniors. There might even be other remnants, mystical pills, magical weapons, and countless giant pies falling on his head just like that. It was not the least bit exaggerated to say that this had opened the door to the Nascent Infant Stage all the way. As long as one was able to find it first, in the future, they would definitely reach that point of becoming a clan ancestor. Grandfather was talking about this thing, he had a premonition that this scroll would not only carry secrets like this, this Young Lord will definitely get it! The young man clenched his fists. Just now, he was played around by Chen Fan, but now, his heart was filled with rage, and urgently needed to be vented. His name was Liu Sen, and the clan backing him was one of the strongest in the area with a radius of hundreds of miles. Because there were certain explanations that could not be made public, Liu Sen obtained the secret of this scroll ahead of time. This time, the main purpose of the Auction was to obtain this item. Furthermore, the clan elders repeatedly warned him to bring the scrolls back, to the extent that not even a single Senior Expert had appeared, so as to not attract the attention of other powers. One hundred and fifty thousand! Once the introductions to the Elder Song finished, a voice immediately came out from a private room and directly brought out thirty thousand Spiritual Stone. Important figures normally would not care about these things, Nascent Infant Stage Expert was more important to them. One hundred and eighty thousand! Could it be that a single Nascent Infant Stage Expert in your eyes is worth such a small amount of Spiritual Stone? Two hundred thousand! C155 An Earth Grade cultivation technique might be a temptation for ordinary cultivators, but within each of these large clans, there would more or less be a few manuals, and even higher level clan guarding techniques. However, Nascent Infant inheritances were rare. After reaching that realm, no matter where one went, they would become an existence that ruled over a region, and no one would complain about having too many strong experts in their own clan. Hehe, although this old man is not sure what it means, I am at least seventy percent sure. As he said that, the Elder Song waved the scroll in his hands, causing a "hualala" sound. It moved the hearts of countless people, but they could only look at it from afar, and not play with it. Kid, I think you should take this scroll as well. The patterns on it do not look good. Deer God suddenly said. Why, what do you enjoy in the new discovery to fool me? Chen Fan didn''t have any interest in this kind of competition to begin with. Only the ready-made Spiritual Being s were in front of him, and if he could see them clearly, he would be willing to open its mouth. However, the uncertainty surrounding this scroll was too great. Even the major powers in the city were hesitant, so the information they had obtained was definitely much more accurate. This kind of special pattern also appeared two thousand years ago. Do you think that any Nascent Infant Stage Expert can live to this age and leave behind an inheritance? The Deer God asked. If it was anyone else, even if the Yuan Sect''s Sect Master were to personally speak with Chen Fan, he would definitely not believe a single word that would happen for thousands of years. However, when these words came from the Deer God, he had no choice but to believe it. This old fellow had indeed experienced that period of time before. Two thousand years ago ¡­ What else do you know? Chen Fan was immediately interested, especially towards this old thing, it seemed like the judgement of the Elder Song was not accurate. He was too far away, so he couldn''t see it clearly, but there was one thing that couldn''t go wrong, the pattern on it was related to the last Ancient Saint in the world. Deer God''s words were like a bomb. If the other sects and powers were to hear about this, they would definitely explode. This is not a joke, it might involve the expenses of several hundred thousand Spiritual Stone, you cannot lie to me, otherwise this debt will be borne by you. Heh, once you buy this scroll, no matter how expensive it is, I will buy it from you, but in the future when you find the Ancient Saint''s Old Territory, all of the good fortune will belong to me. It was rare for the Deer God to take advantage of such a large bag, but he had already proven his words with his actions. This fellow always treated Spiritual Stone as his second lifeblood, otherwise, it would be impossible for him to say such words. Come on, you can''t even find a single Spiritual Stone, what are you bidding for ¡­ Chen Fan almost believed seventy to eighty percent of it already. He obviously knew that if Deer God wanted to, after running into the Wilderness, he could casually point one finger and dig many mausoleums. Those were the resting grounds of the truly strong. Their every move was recorded in the memories of the Dao of the Heavens, and even the Deer God could clearly tell the former''s funeral. This was clearly an enormous hidden treasure. How about we make a bet and see who can find so many Spiritual Stone in the shortest amount of time possible? The Deer God was an army, but Chen Fan was not strong enough right now, so he did not have the cultivation to explore. Otherwise, why would he come to this kind of place? Don''t, don''t, don''t. It was just a joke, why did you, an old man, take it so seriously? Chen Fan hurriedly smiled apologetically, he still had to point at the old fellow and reveal even more of his secrets. Hurry up and cut off all this useless stuff. This can only be done on a weekly basis; you can''t let others snatch it away. Deer God curled his lips. Under the stimulation of that pattern, another portion of his memories came out. The cultivation technique Ancient Saint cultivated before he died was very special. Every time it was activated, it would always have this kind of pattern and directly appear in the air. Many of the Cultivator at that time had seen it before. Unfortunately, so much time had passed, and even if there were still old monsters over two thousand years of age, it was unlikely that they would have the chance to see the Ancient Saint take action, nor would they reveal themselves within this Auction. Could it be a Ancient Saint level inheritance? The moment the words left his mouth, Chen Fan felt sad. Originally, his peak state was one head higher than the Ancient Saint''s realm, but now, he was excited because he might have discovered the latter''s inheritance. It could only be said that there was a certain probability that just the word Ancient Saint was enough for you to spend several hundreds of thousands of Spiritual Stone, so you definitely would not lose anything. Deer God stuttered, but the tone of his voice was eerily similar to his own. During the time that he and Chen Fan had been discussing this, the alliance between the few large families and sects had already pushed the price to a completely new threshold. Five hundred thousand, no one is qualified to compete with me! Amongst them, Liu Sen was the one who was the most surprised by his performance. At the beginning, he had been silent, but later, he raised the bid by tens of thousands of Spiritual Stone at the critical moment. Six hundred thousand. The Young Lord calmly added another mouthful, and the fact that there were a hundred thousand Spiritual Stone at a time was already unbearable for many of the competitors. It wasn''t that they couldn''t produce these Spiritual Stone, it was just that they were worried about the scroll. If it really was only an Earth Ranked Technique in the end, it had nothing to do with the inheritance. Only Liu Sen was so confident, and even intentionally put on a strong front to scare those guys off. From the looks of it, his strategy was still effective. The pattern is very beautiful, and when the time comes, I can use this opportunity to find the inheritance of the Nascent Infant Stage Expert, a mere few hundred thousand Spiritual Stone would not be much. Following the instructions his grandfather gave him in the clan, Liu Sen pretended to be furious and immediately revealed his identity, giving the elders who were still hesitating a peace of mind. In their eyes, Liu Sen, this playboy, was playing around again. He actually made such a big decision just through the pattern. Even if the latter revealed the truth, no one would believe it. They were more willing to speculate in the opposite direction. There was no need to go crazy with such a prodigal son. Is there anyone else who wants to raise the price? Elder Song''s expression was calm, he was already very satisfied with the result. Although there was still a gap between him and the result he had expected, the sudden income from the Pure Yang Sword should be enough to cover the gap. After a long while, he still could not hear anything following him. Liu Sen became complacent once again, as if he had already seen himself getting great benefits from the scroll, and the Senior Expert''s expressions became ugly. C156 60,000 yuan for one pill. The familiar scene replayed itself once again. Before the short half of his body, Liu Sen was similarly determined to win. He thought that he could crush the entire audience, but in the end, he was tricked by Chen Fan. Now, even if the latter did not reveal his identity and heard such a unique bid call, everyone would have realized that this was only the beginning of a new exciting show. The Elder Song in the stands was even more elated. The two distinguished guests were about to fight again, they might even be able to use this chance to break through a million. Damn it, why is it this guy again? Who exactly is that, did you guys find out?! Liu Sen was so angry that his lungs were about to explode, with a slap, he broke the reclining chair beside him. It was one thing to stop him from bidding on the Pure Yang Sword, but he had never expected to come again so soon with an army. He did not want to see any mistakes at such a crucial stage. Seven hundred thousand! Seven hundred and one. Eight hundred thousand! Eight hundred thousand and one. The voice from the private room on the west side was calm, giving off a sickly feeling. On the other hand, Liu Sen clenched his teeth, and almost roared out. What are you trying to do? I''ll be careful to eat this scroll today, no one can stop me. If anyone raises the price again, don''t blame me for being ruthless! This kind of direct threat was strictly prohibited in any Auction. If he wanted to suppress them with his influence, there was no need to compete with his wealth anymore. However, after thinking for a bit, Elder Song did not interrupt Liu Sen. Since no one else was bidding, and all the cultivators and seniors were waiting to see a good show, they could only say that to Chen Fan. One million! Finally, under the truly furious Liu Sen''s orders, he broke through this barrier. If he had to use the Spiritual Stone as a comparison, he would soon be at the top of the Nascent Infant inheritance. In other words, if they took out the same Spiritual Stone, they could use other methods to obtain cultivation resources that were not inferior to inheritance. With such a high price, even if he obtained the scroll, he would still be a loser. The Senior Expert s of several major forces were all sneering, thinking it was two young and vigorous Young Lord fighting over face with each other. Expensive ¡­." Chen Fan really didn''t have any strength left. He slumped down on the deck chair and sank deep into it. He didn''t even want to say the number of a million from his own mouth. In fact, he felt pain more than anyone else, even though these Spiritual Stone did not account for much of his wealth. Both of them were unwilling to take a step back. They thought that the other party was obstructing their grand plans, something that should have been resolved with several hundred thousand taels of silver. But now, everyone was treating it as a fool to fork out a million taels of gold. Ten thousand-year-old spiritual plants, each one of them reaching the level of the Medicine God. When Liu Sen called out his bid again, he did not follow the usual large volume of Spiritual Stone, but chose to take another path, thinking that this might be enough to take Chen Fan down. It would actually be a great loss if he tied up all the herbs and sold them in piles. However, in order to recover his reputation, he couldn''t care less. This was a very common practice in the Auction. If one did not have enough Spiritual Stone s to pay for it, they would use all kinds of magical equipment or divine weapons as collateral. Based on Liu Sen''s thoughts, even if the fellow he was competing with all this time could take out a million Spiritual Stone, he still wouldn''t necessarily have so many medicinal herbs. Within a circumference of a thousand kilometers, the only people who could truly achieve the pinnacle of business were their Liu Family. They could even connect the business with Yuan Sect, and the clan''s reserves of Spiritual Being were even more bountiful. The so called Medicine King, especially one who had reached the age of over five thousand years, did not really need to live for several thousand years, but every single stalk could be said to be a King within a divine plant. If placed on this Auction, one stalk could reach the high price of over a hundred thousand Spiritual Stone, and this was even a conservative estimate. When they met any Senior Expert who wished to prolong their lives or prepare to reach a higher realm, they were very willing to take out more Zero Spiritual Stone to save the Longevity and their dao. Ten medicinal herbs, five thousand years of age, plus a Spiritual Stone. Without hesitation, Chen Fan quickly reported his response. In a short quarter of an hour, Liu Sen was slapped twice, he was so angry that his entire body was trembling. No matter how rich he was, he was still just a Young Lord, and the Liu Family behind him relied on the trades that they made to strengthen themselves. With the Third Elder''s entire family background as support, Chen Fan was not worried at all. Impossible, what kind of thing are you? Within a radius of a thousand miles, only this Young Lord has the ability to take out twenty of these Medicine Kings, you must be speaking nonsense! Hehe, looks like it''s time to teach this kid a lesson. The Deer God laughed sinisterly as Chen Fan transferred the Pill King from the Storage Bag. Looks like I guessed right, this fellow is a braggart, how could he possibly have so many Medicine Kings, even I am willing to write "Liu" backwards. After a long while, there was no sound from the room at the side. Liu Sen could not help but laugh loudly, and thought that Chen Fan had already submitted, and had his weak spot poked by him. The other cultivators on the scene all shook their heads one after another. There was actually nothing to show off, as not even a million Spiritual Stone could make this scroll. Cough cough, if this esteemed guest no longer bids, then this scroll ¡­ Elder Song cleared his throat. Liu Sen was about to hear a voice that was filled with satisfaction, but the old voice suddenly stopped. Oh my god! I didn''t expect that I would be able to see so many medicinal herbs in my lifetime. I really didn''t come here for nothing. Breathe out a few more breaths and you''ll be stained by the Vital Energy. This is so comfortable, I don''t think I''ll ever get the chance to do that again in my entire life. After hearing the exclamations outside, Liu Sen instinctively felt that something was amiss. His heart skipped a beat, and he immediately went over to take a look. The medicinal herbs were placed in the air side by side in a neat row. Their entire bodies were emitting a bright light and a Spiritual Stone was even placed on the side in an extremely mocking manner. Just by looking at it with the naked eye, one could tell that this was definitely a top-grade medicinal herb. Its grade was extraordinary, not to mention that on the surface, it revealed layers of Talisman. Ten Medicine Kings, I believe that none of you need to be appraised. From this distance, all of you should be able to sense the strong vitality within them. Chen Fan said in a faint voice. The rooms at the side did not have much experience, but at least the cultivators near him were all immersed in the medicinal fragrance. Since the other party dared to reveal himself in front of so many people, it meant that there was no possibility that he was forging. The outcome of the appraisal had already been determined by the crowd. The face-smacking came so fast that even the Elder Song was caught off guard by it. He did not expect so many Medicine Kings to appear, to the point where he subconsciously calculated the price. C157 If all of them were auctioned off by him, he could obtain at least a commission of over a hundred thousand Spiritual Stone. If nothing unexpected happened, today''s scene would leave a deep shadow in Liu Sen''s heart and it wouldn''t disappear for a period of time. Everyone was waiting for his price, but this Young Lord did not have any trump cards left, so maybe he could still hold on for a little longer, but he did not have that kind of thought anymore. This Young Lord will definitely find out who exactly this is, and this scroll must be retrieved for me! Liu Sen said in a stern voice, this was a death command from the clan elder, he could not afford to lose. Even though he had been attacked halfway, he quickly thought of a countermeasure in his fury. Maybe he wouldn''t even be able to use a Spiritual Stone. This is indeed the Medicine King, ten of them added together, this old man thinks it is worth one million and two hundred thousand Spiritual Stone. Elder Song still took it over symbolically and looked through it, giving him a rough estimate of the price. Hearing this, everyone could only sigh with emotion. They did not dare to interfere in such a fight between deities. However, they were enjoying the show. It was obvious that if one only had three to four hundred thousand Spiritual Stone, they would be able to obtain these scrolls, yet they had to pay a high price several times over. And the crux of it was to fight for face. In the end, the scroll was still in Chen Fan''s hands. Compared to the Spiritual Stone, these medicinal herbs were not that important, and there were still over a hundred plants in the Third Elder''s little treasury. As for the remaining auctioned items, he did not continue to interfere. The so-called Soul Suppressing Treasure did not have anything special. It was only a piece of rarely seen precious jade, and to him, it did not attract much attention. I looked at the lines on the wall. They didn''t look familiar at all. Chen Fan held the scroll in his hand, and felt that it was incredibly heavy. This had cost him so much; After observing for a while, he did not find anything new, but carefully searched his mind for any memories of the Ancient Saint. Unfortunately, according to the Deer God, the latter did not belong to his era. He even tried to instill Spiritual Energy and Spiritual Consciousness into it, but they were both like stones sinking into the ocean, and did not receive any response. If nothing unexpected happened, this should be a map. The direction that Ban was pointing towards definitely had something to do with the Ancient Saint. The Deer God was also carefully observing Yun Che for a long time before confirming something. Furthermore, it seemed to have formed a line in his mind, for fear that a shocking inheritance of the Ancient Saint would appear in his mind. I hope that the Ancient Saint''s bloodline has been severed, so no one will fight for it anymore. Chen Fan muttered to himself, he still believed in Deer God''s judgement. Although this old fellow would not fool him from time to time, he had always been serious about matters that involved Spiritual Stone s. What was worth mentioning was that the Ancient Saint probably wouldn''t have thought that he would be targeted by both the Heaven''s Path incarnation and the Supreme Wu Tian at the same time. Moreover, the latter couldn''t wait for all of his descendants to be exterminated. Carefully putting away the scroll, Chen Fan left after patting his bottom as he neared the end of his Auction, before turning back to take one last look at this luxurious private room. Thinking that if there was a chance next time, she would have to try her best to get this VIP status, it was indeed something to enjoy. If not for her wide field of vision, perhaps even Deer God wouldn''t be able to see the patterns on the scroll. There was no longer any need to stay in the city. He had been wandering around for so many days, and this sort of place would not help him in raising his cultivation level at all. Chen Fan planned to make a trip to the Wilderness because he couldn''t wait to see where he spent the several hundred thousand units of spirit energy. However, not long after he left the auction house, Chen Fan suddenly felt that there were people following him, and intentionally tried to probe a few times. As long as he stopped, these people would stop immediately. If he increased his speed, the latter would follow him at a fast pace, but on the contrary, they would move slowly. Under normal circumstances, there would not be any signs of movement. It was obvious that these fellows weren''t used to hiding their bodies, or perhaps it was more accurate to say that they didn''t try to conceal their presence at all. Just like that, they set out to commit immoral acts. Finally, you have a chance to be the focus of attention outside, the rise of Supreme Wu Tian is just around the corner. Deer God laughed weirdly. He was the first one to notice that something was amiss and couldn''t help but mock him. Since their revival underground, they had not been welcomed by anyone in the Qing Xuan Sect. They had been forced to marry each other in the Hua Ding Sect, and they had been chased around the world in the Yuan Sect. In short, no matter where Chen Fan went, he was not that happy. In this half a month, they had passed by countless of ordinary people. Even to the day of their deaths, they would not have guessed that they would actually be fortunate enough to walk shoulder to shoulder with an expert who had once exhausted all of their Supreme Stage. What was the point of this attention? It was not to take my life, but to seek my fortune. Chen Fan shook his head. He was a little curious, since in the past half a month, he had been safe and sound and had not provoked anyone. That Young Lord might sound very young, and maybe even have skin and tender flesh, that''s all. Deer God might have really been provoked by those two young girls in the auction house, but for some reason, the Heaven''s Path incarnation was also moved. It opened its mouth, closed it mouth, and started heading towards the old man''s direction. Chen Fan:... Only after hearing Deer God''s reminder, did he remember that the person whom he had cheated a few times unintentionally in Auction seemed to be the one who claimed himself to be the Young Lord. If Liu Sen knew that he was so angry that his lungs were about to explode yet the other party did not even put him in his eyes, and had neglected him so quickly, he was afraid that even his own surging rage would burn him up. If you did not interfere, the Pure Yang Sword could have been taken down with fifty thousand Spiritual Stone, let alone this scroll. From the moment he first incited Chen Fan to bid, Deer God had already guessed that there would be more trouble, but he never would have thought that it would come so quickly, causing Liu Sen to go overboard in his anxiety. Otherwise, who would actually spend a million Spiritual Stone just to make an unknown guess? Deer God reckoned that he was not the only one who noticed the clues on the scroll. However, the other observers seemed to be watching something untoward with their Auction. Even if one was doted upon, there would never be a family that would let go of such an opportunity; even the Third Elder of Yuan Sect would not allow Hu Mu to do so. He didn''t know how powerful Liu Family was, but before he came to the new city, he should first understand more about the large clans in the city, and should also find out about the nearby sects. Although there were still pursuers behind him, Chen Fan''s heart was thinking about something else. He had long since wanted to repeat the events that happened in the Yuan Sect, it was just that he had not found a suitable opponent. As he pondered about it, he deliberately made many twists and turns to enter a relatively remote alleyway. It was much more deserted here, and for a long time, he did not see a single person. Chen Fan specially chose to stay in this kind of place to teach these fellows a lesson, and to avoid attracting even more attention. He stopped and stood in the middle of the alley. Then, he spoke to the people behind him. If you have anything to say, just say it. After sending me out of the city for so long, I will accept the favor of having Liu Family. The few Liu Family disciples that were still following behind were not surprised either, as they stood out calmly, and even lined up in a row. It seemed like they had even circled around Chen Fan''s escape route. You want to leave after taking my Liu Family''s items? The leader was a burly man of medium age with a sturdy build. From afar, he looked like an iron tower. Brother, please don''t joke with me. I don''t even know where you are, how could I take your things? There must be a mistake. Chen Fan chuckled, there was no fear on his face at all. Towards this kind of person, it was as if he was playing with a cat or mouse, and he was happy with it. Bullsh * t, I personally witnessed you putting that scroll into a Storage Bag. If you know what''s good for you, quickly hand it over and I''ll let you live. The burly man coldly snorted. His voice was full of vigor. Even though he was far away, his eardrums were still ringing. It seemed that his cultivation base was not low either. You mean this thing? Chen Fan obediently took the Storage Bag from his waist, and then slowly held the scroll in his hand, waving it at the few people in front of him. This is even more of a joke. I clearly just spent so many Spiritual Stone on Auction to buy it, how did it become something you two left behind. Stop playing dumb, do you really not know that this scroll is one that our Young Lord has his eyes on? If you want to live, then obediently put them on the ground and scram out of the city! The burly man said without a trace of politeness. If your Young Lord sees anything, then it all belongs to him, and if he were to catch a glimpse of this scroll today, he would go take a walk in the Yuan Sect tomorrow, wouldn''t that mean that the dignified First Sect would belong to the Liu Family as well? Chen Fan could not help but feel that it was funny. Compared to him, even dead people could talk about life, not to mention that he was the one who was in charge of this. No matter how sharp your words are, it''s useless. Yours Truly will give you one last chance. Hand over the scroll and you can live. At the same time, he called out to the seven or eight Liu Family disciples around him to prepare themselves. It could be seen that he was also very cautious. He clearly had the cultivation of the second form of the Core Condensating, and the helpers he brought along were all at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, so there was no need to go through all this trouble. They just needed to attack a bit more forcefully. On the surface, Chen Fan did not seem to be as strong as any of them, but the big sized man was thinking, if the latter was so arrogant, perhaps he might have some other trump card. Come come come come, it just so happens that I haven''t fought for so many days, and I can also channel and channel my muscles and bones to see just how capable my Liu Family is. Being chased out of the Moon Slaughter Devil Nest by Lan Yu for no reason at all and having to carry the infamy of being scolded for over a hundred days, Chen Fan had been holding back his anger for over half a month, and he had been looking for an opportunity to vent it all along. C158 Hmph hmph, then don''t blame me for being impolite. Your small body can be broken in three punches. The sturdy man pinched his knuckles and let out a cracking sound. He rushed over with his disciples, forming a line and advancing forward. The surging Spiritual Energy was surging. They worked together to activate a large seal, which was completely materialized in the air. It expanded to a size of several meters and had a very overbearing aura. It was obvious that they had done this many times. It was unknown just how many of the flash cultivators who had participated in Auction had all been robbed like this. Chen Fan revealed a smile, the Three Saint Force suddenly condensed and the countless energy channels in his body surged. He raised his hand and punched out, the force alone was enough to distort the space in front of him. Moreover, after he sensed the other party''s murderous intent, he did not hold back at all. Everything within a radius of a hundred zhang instantly solidified into his domain, and all the spiritual energy was sucked out. An even more majestic pressure scattered in all directions like the tide. Looking back at the giant seal, it did not last long before it was completely engulfed by the ocean like waves. This brat seems to have some tricks up his sleeves. Let''s not worry about him anymore and quickly divide him up into corpses and clean him up! The sturdy man gave the order again and took out a Lex Sabre from his sleeves. He did not expect that the killing move would be broken so quickly. Hearing this, the other Liu Family disciples all started to move in unison, waving their three foot long blades in their hands, as an even denser Gengjin Qi brewed. Vaguely, they seemed to have formed a special sword formation. Their auras were intertwined, and even though they were frustrated for the first time, they did not affect anything. They continued to mobilize their attacks very calmly. Each of their swords released a silvery white light, and they were all sharp Sword Intent s. When they overlapped with each other, even the void was torn apart. Originally, this level of destructive power was not something any Foundation Establishment Cultivator could withstand. The big sized man also had a smirk on his face, as if he saw Chen Fan kneeling and begging for mercy. However, before his excitement could fade away, the expression on his face froze. A pair of large hands descended from the sky and pinched the sword in his hand, causing it to split apart in half a breath''s time. Clang! There was no Chen Fan kneeling figure on the ground, but instead a few pieces of the sword body fragments dropped to the ground. A few Liu Family disciples saw this and were startled and angry, as they shouted and slashed at Chen Fan. This was a Frosted Iron Lex Sabre specially forged by the family, not only was it incomparably hard, it could even release a certain degree of cold aura. If an ordinary cultivator were to touch it directly with their hands, even their bones would have turned into jelly. However, in that short moment of contact, the burly man no longer had anything to defend himself. He could only fight with his bare hands. Fortunately, his cultivation held the advantage, and he could still use Spiritual Energy s to attach to his skin. Even though there was a layer of faint radiance on his skin, it was not easy to break through. It''s just a small trick, don''t be so presumptuous in the future. It''s just that I''m too good-natured; if it were anyone else, I would have already killed you. And that was not all. After Chen Fan succeeded in his attack, he immediately took the chance and chased after his. He completely ignored the silver white light from his opponent and stepped on the ground, causing ripples. They could not even stand steadily, let alone aim at their target. With the help of the Buddha Arts, they could not even see Chen Fan''s body clearly, and had almost accidentally injured themselves. Chen Fan''s movements were extremely fast, so there was no need to intentionally aim at anyone. Since these fellows had formed a sword formation, naturally, they had to unleash an attack from all directions. This battle was not on the same level, and only the middle aged man could barely contend against Chen Fan. In the end, he was still in a stupefied state because of the broken sword. Such a good opportunity, of course Chen Fan would not let it go. He turned into a stream of light, causing even himself to be unable to count just how many fists he had unleashed. The formation on the other side had only just been formed, and was already on the verge of collapse. Unfortunately, the sword body that they were activating was supported by the Spell Formation, so it could not be broken anymore. The Three Saint Force was mixed within the chaotic space, isolating a long crack. No matter how many Sword Intent there were, it was useless to Chen Fan. Just what realm was this fellow in, how could he possess such a powerful physical body! Looking on helplessly as Chen Fan''s fists moved back and forth as if it was made of fine iron, it was completely unstoppable, forcing the burly man to constantly dodge, he was extremely shocked in his heart. No, even if it was a Core Condensating cultivator, he would not be able to break through my Sword Intent''s defense so quickly, could it be a hidden Senior Expert? However, just as this thought had risen in his heart, it was immediately overturned by him. If it was really those big shots that had the ability to crush others, there was no need to waste words with him. During this process, although the latter was knocked into a state of disorder by the fist shadows, with the passage of time, he had enough time to catch his breath before he actually managed to stabilize himself. Hundreds and thousands of sword Qis crisscrossed in the air. At first glance, they thought they had formed a huge net, planning on capturing the entire world. What made Chen Fan somewhat surprised was that these fellows had a high level of tacit understanding. All of them were at the peak of Foundation Establishment, and with the leader of the group, their combined fighting strength was not inferior to that of the third form of Core Condensating. Amongst the ordinary clan forces, this was already considered a pretty good deterring force. One must know, as a Holy Maiden, Nangong Xuan only had half a step into the Core Condensating. Raising his hand, he used the fist shadows to block the formation of the Liu Family disciples. Chen Fan mainly attacked this big guy with his five fingers pressed together, causing a force of over ten thousand kilograms to fall down. Completely fearless of Chen Fan''s domain suppression, the burly man surged with extremely terrifying blade light. It could be seen that he truly had a unique preference towards Divine Weapons, and his size had also reached ten feet. Rumble rumble rumble! Even though it was just condensed out, it still managed to forcefully fill up the crack in the sky. It passed by and from the looks of it, it wanted to cut Chen Fan in half. The latter spread out her wings with a bang. She could still be of use to him at the critical moment of the Seven Transformations of Starry Sky, but he did not actually fly into the air. Instead, he continued to flap and release even more Lingyu. The benefits of cultivating diligently for such a long period of time were shown. A large amount of Spiritual Energy s had accumulated, and the surrounding area was completely replaced by the rich scarlet red Lingyu, with every piece attached to Chen Fan''s Spiritual Consciousness. Even though the speed of the swing was extremely fast, it was still within his control. The most intense collision took place with the incoming saber light, and the aftermath of the fight alone was enough to cause an ordinary Mortal Realm cultivator to fall to the ground. C159 The few youngsters behind were also eager to give it a try, waving the sword glows in their hands and thrusting back and forth. There were even a few people who gathered their strength to pierce through the void, transmitting the Sword Intent to Chen Fan from far away. Then, strings of sparks rained down. There still seemed to be a burnt smell; however, when it touched Chen Fan''s hair and sleeves, it didn''t cause too much damage. The Sword Intent s that were strong enough to split mountains and shatter rocks could only do this much. If the pure sword blade were to directly slash at Chen Fan''s body, the crisp sounds of the divine weapons clashing would probably be heard. Very quickly, they had tasted the bitter fruit of their rash move. Chen Fan had specially split a portion of it out and surrounded it like an old cocoon, corroding it with Spiritual Energy s all the time. These were like maggots attached to bones. As long as one met them, they would not be able to shake them off, and especially after being controlled by Chen Fan''s Spiritual Consciousness, they had all moved according to his wishes, and had even entered into his internal organs. This time, a few Liu Family disciples did not dare to move recklessly, as this move could be said to be fatal, and caused them to instantly lose all of their fighting strength. If anything unexpected happened, he would have to quickly act the role of the fire brigade leader and suppress those Lingyu. Otherwise, his body would be split from his internal organs. Using the same trick on the big sized man was not desirable, the blade light alone used up a lot of Lingyu, causing him to continuously temper his opponent''s cultivation. Including those Liu Family disciples, after calming down Lingyu a little, they simply watched the scene unfold without restraint. On the other hand, they were very confident in their own experts'' battle strength. They didn''t think that there would be too many unforeseen events. At most, they were just a bit unprepared at the start of the battle. A young man who was only at the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage, no matter how outstanding his performance was, it was impossible for him to hold up against a Core Condensating expert. The dull sound waves continuously struck at everyone''s eardrums. At first glance, they looked like Lingyu was a locust swarm that filled the sky, continuously eroding the blade light''s main body. The burly man''s expression was calm, his entire body was covered in a layer of clear radiance, constantly providing the surging Spiritual Energy s. The light from the blade contained decades of his understanding towards sword arts. Since ancient times, sabers and swords did not belong to any separate families, and belonged to the two sharpest types of divine weapons. They were always regarded as the favorite of true brave men, and no matter which path one reached, they would be able to reach a high realm. To this burly man, being able to turn a Sword Intent into a blade was something he was very proud of. It was just that there was still half of the sky that was crimson red in color. In the process, there were also passers-by who would occasionally pass by. After seeing this scene, they would immediately leave. They would run and stumble, fearing that they would be infected by some disaster if they saw something they shouldn''t have. After a quarter of an hour of confrontation, the two had no choice but to retreat. They staggered for more than ten steps before being able to avoid the backlash. Neither of them was able to do anything to the other. This caused the few Liu Family disciples who were restricted to be worried. They did not expect that in such an intense confrontation, they actually did not kill Chen Fan, which showed that he truly had some trump cards up his sleeves. Little bastard, this master doesn''t care who you are or what kind of background you have, there''s only one outcome for offending Liu Family, and that is death! Just like how Liu Sen had felt previously, the big sized guy was also extremely angry. He did not think that he would have to fight against a Foundation Establishment cultivator for a long time, especially in front of his own clan disciples. Let alone the battle situation here, if Liu Sen found out about it, his position in front of the Young Lord would definitely be greatly reduced, and he would have to use all his strength to find a way to make up for it. With that, the muscular man patted the Storage Bag and retrieved another cloth bag from within. The bag looked plain and normal. Are you playing a game of loop after loop? Nine songs in a row doesn''t seem to fit your age. Although he had sensed that the other party''s aura had changed, Chen Fan still ridiculed him in such a manner. Not only could it disrupt his state of mind, it could also allow him to obtain even more recovery from his fury. Hmph, today I will use something to force you into the Underworld! The burly man opened the bag in his hand and snorted coldly. He didn''t see any trace of light or light from his body, but there were already signs of air flow. It was even fiercer than the gale that Chen Fan had created earlier. It came menacingly, and in an instant, the entire alley was squeezed into a vacuum once again, and all the air was compressed in the middle of the circle of battle. Following the formation of this nameless demonic wind, even the clouds in the sky started to show off their might. It was pitch-black, and the surrounding light became much dimmer. This was a storm condensed into substance, it appeared to be like a funnel opening, gathering Spiritual Energy from all directions. Moreover, it was spinning at high speed, slowly but surely moving towards Chen Fan. I want to see how long you can persevere. Even if a three hundred meter long Demonic Beast is torn into pieces, unless you can summon a heavenly miracle, it''s all self-inflicted. In the eyes of this burly man, there was no need to fight so fiercely. In the end, the result would be the same and he would have to waste his cultivation base for no reason. In his eyes, Chen Fan was already a dead person. It was just a matter of time before the scroll fell into the hands of the Liu Family. Kid, now is the time for you to test your combat strength. You will have the opportunity to do so if you wish for half a month. Deer God was also paying attention to the battle. These were two forces that ran counter to each other. One of them was spinning at high speeds, carrying even more power. As their bodies continued to expand, sword blades that blotted out the sky appeared, but the speed at which the two were approaching each other was decreasing. Seeing that, Chen Fan''s eyes revealed a serious look. He thought back to the scene on the Yuan Sect, and was forced to do so before. This was the true strength of a Core Formation Stage Ranker. After cultivating for several decades, the accumulated energy in his dantian was all waved out, creating a small storm. After a moment of thought, Liu Ming ascended to the sky and planned to use the three Sacred Arts to face each other and seize the opportunity to dive down. His left hand turned into a fist while his right hand changed into a palm. Different techniques produced different images, but the essence was an aura that could destroy everything. He imitated the shape of the Dao Burning Furnace and refined it. Furthermore, he imitated its pattern and expanded its volume to a few dozen meters. This way of looking at it was indeed more imposing. C160 Three completely different types of light interweaved, and adding the protection of Lingyu, who covered the sky with his profound energy, it could be said that Chen Fan''s body was covered with different colors. He had used up all of his power, his Dantian and meridians almost dried up. It was just that after being enlarged, the Furnace Body would stay in the air, looking more like a small mountain. As expected, the two sides collided once again. This time, the shockwaves were even more intense. The space within a circumference of one hundred zhang completely collapsed, and those rooms were also in trouble. The incomparably real waves were surging, and the mountain shadow and the storm were actually all made up of pure Spiritual Energy. Naturally, it broke apart with just a slight contact, and circular ripples spread outwards. Fortunately, they still had Auction today and many cultivators were attracted there. Adding to the fact that this alley was originally remote, no casualties were caused. At the same time, it also brought about intense visual shock, especially from the few Liu Family disciples who were observing the entire battle from the side. Not only did he not expect such a powerful body to exist in this world, not only did he not stand a chance against magic treasures, he even tore through the void with his bare hands. Since you guys are heartless, then don''t blame me for being unjust. While gritting his teeth, Chen Fan still used his extra energy to blow up the time bomb that he had placed on the disciples earlier. Boom! The battle between him and this burly man had yet to be decided and was still in a stalemate. On the contrary, the other party''s backyard was first on fire ¨C the real fire. Under the control of Chen Fan''s Spiritual Consciousness, these Lingyu infiltrated into their internal organs, displaying the destructive power of the previous tribulation lightning inside the former''s body. Normally, no one would pay attention to the tempering of the body, as all of the internal organs were so tender and tender, even if one only entered Lingyu''s body, the resulting injury was hard to imagine. An even more exciting scene had occurred. The Liu Family disciples who were previously still in a rage and had launched attacks at Chen Fan, a total of seven to eight of them, were now lying on the ground and rolling about. His hands clutched his abdomen tightly as he continued to moan in pain. His expression was ferocious and his face distorted. It was obvious that he had endured a great deal of pain. Moreover, his entire robe was covered in flames, emitting waves of green smoke. For some reason, the temperature of his dantian rose rapidly. Of course, this was what Chen Fan had done. Ever since he had started cultivating the Seven Transformations of Starry Sky, he had determined high temperatures to be the best attacking method. Every single one of these Lingyu s could transform into magma anytime and anywhere. Those fellows thought that they could suppress it, but in reality, it was only temporarily extinguished. It was all because of a single thought from Chen Fan that the volcano could erupt at any time. Since they had chosen an incomparably important location in the Dantian, even if Yuan Sect Elders were to help, it would be impossible to save them. It was not a simple matter of losing fighting strength, and even their true cultivation would be crippled. Dammit, you have completely infuriated Yours Truly. If anything were to happen to them, I will rip you to shreds! The burly man looked at his followers falling down one by one. If they all died, then he would definitely be severely punished. Who would dare to call a bastard master in front of me? Chen Fan''s expression was clear and cold, his tone calm. He was more or less at the end of his rope, but he still did not panic, and he did not even take out his Dao Burning Furnace. If it was still the time when he was at the Yuan Sect earlier, he would have definitely run away now. If he were to face an Core Formation Stage expert face to face, the only outcome would be death. However, after going through two consecutive experiences with an Earth Vein trial and breaking through to the next realm, Chen Fan already had enough confidence to face this person head on. Furthermore, relying on the fact that the Myriad Manifestation Saint Technique was able to provide an unending supply of Spiritual Energy, the small mountain that he created had an unending stream of heavy attacks. If this continued, then the big guy would definitely not be able to hold on. Even if he had the advantage in cultivation, when it came to the Spiritual Being reserves, how could he compare to the Third Elder''s small treasury? At this moment, Chen Fan had already completely released all of the Spiritual Being s in his body to be crazily absorbed by the Myriad Manifestation Saint Technique. The speed at which he converted them into his dantian was unimaginable, and the entire process took less than two breaths of time. With such majestic support, it was almost limitless. The burly man originally thought that victory was within his grasp and forcefully withstood for an entire quarter of an hour, yet he still didn''t show any signs of being defeated. Quickly come and look, the Auction had just ended and it was already bustling with noise and excitement! Keep your voice down. Don''t let them hear it. Otherwise, they will definitely come after the battle. To be honest, that big guy seemed to be a disciple of Liu Family. They hold a grudge and have reached Core Formation Stage themselves, and have bullied many people. At this time, there were already many spectators far away, pointing and talking to Chen Fan and the rest. No one dared to approach them, as this level of confrontation had already exceeded their limits. Hearing that their impression of the big sized man was not very good, their attention was quickly drawn to Chen Fan. The former''s fighting strength was obvious to all, and had been used quite a few times in the city. But the young man behind him was truly powerful, many people were trying to guess Chen Fan''s origin, even though he had changed his appearance to 25 or 26 years old. However, his cultivation level wasn''t lying, it wasn''t that he hadn''t gone through the challenge, but that many talented young experts were able to do it. This was truly the first time that someone as abnormal as him was able to do so. The one with the Liu Family seemed to be done for, as it turns out, he was the one who was bullied around, and there were times when he was pressured and beaten up. If I were to say, he is usually so arrogant and despotic, just like that Young Lord of his. Heh, perhaps this young man was a disciple of some transcendent powers, so it made sense. The burly man became even angrier as he heard the discussions around him. He wanted to slap them and cover their mouths. If they had the ability then they would fight with this bastard. As for the suspicions he had towards Chen Fan''s identity, he had completely lost all reason due to his rage. He didn''t care about all that, he only wanted to beat the former down and ruthlessly stomp on him. Usually, a perverted young man like Chen Fan would have a strong backer as his backer. Help me suppress this little bastard. He activated a secret technique and is currently burning his own life! In the end, he had no choice but to take the risk and order the other Liu Family disciples to help, and even concoct an excuse to climb the stairs for himself. But as he turned around, he discovered that there wasn''t even the sound of screaming anymore. All of his fellow disciples were lying on the ground with someone like a pile of mud. Their current threat was negligible, even normal people were not their opponents. Their dantian had been forcefully broken by Lingyu, or they could even be called cripples. How could this be? Although the big man was prepared, he was still shocked. He had not expected such a result and was afraid that it would alarm the elders of the family. At this moment, he suddenly felt a sense of alarm in his heart. He suddenly felt a chill as if he was about to rob someone. Subconsciously, he took a step forward and flew out. Indeed, there was a cone hidden in the void, and with the help of the Spiritual Energy''s fluctuations, it was unable to be seen with the naked eye, and could only chase after the burly man. Why do you think you have to suffer like this? Just obediently stop and let me stab you with my sword. Chen Fan sighed leisurely, and passed those words back to the burly man without moving at all. He gathered all of the Spiritual Consciousness, precisely to heavily injure the latter when he relaxed his guard. After consecutively fleeing for more than thirty meters, this big guy was at least a dignified Core Formation Stage expert, and would be considered an expert in such a city. He was about to run for his life and head straight for the bustling streets. If he was allowed to enter the stream of people, it would be much more difficult to deal with him. It would also cause accidental injuries. The onlookers quickly made way for them, and there were even more shops on the main street. If they were to launch a large-scale attack again, they would at least take a dozen lives with them. His good intentions were not needed on the right path, if it were other people chasing after him, he might have escaped. However, just as the big sized man was about to grasp onto his hope for survival, a Furnace Body stood in front of him. The reflection in his eyes quickly enlarged and he subconsciously wanted to rush over, but how could a human body compare to a Dao Burning Furnace? This was a Heavy Treasure that had once borne a Heavenly Dao Fragment. The sharp awl at the back of his head followed closely behind him. A huge head was smashed into pieces. It was as blurry as a watermelon, and red and white liquid flowed out. It was a tragic sight, and many people were retching. Clang! Finally, this crisp sound came out from the big man''s body. Under the pincer attack from the Dao Burning Furnace himself and the sharp awl, both his body and the Spiritual Consciousness were destroyed at the same time. He fell straight down, and before he was smashed to pieces, he could vaguely see the look of unwillingness and despair in his eyes. Very quickly, he died. It''s a pity that you still have a chance. Why do you have to run in such a hurry? Chen Fan shook his head, in his opinion, there was still not enough time for battle, furthermore, this guy could fight head on with someone who was at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage, but he was completely scared out of his wits. The onlookers had expected this to happen, but this bloody scene made them, the Cultivator, feel uncomfortable today. At the same time, he was extremely shocked. To think that a strong practitioner from Liu Family would be killed, they would definitely not let this matter rest. So what? Looking at this young man''s attitude, he did not even put Liu Family in his eyes. Perhaps he really was a genius with a huge background. The strong dragon did not press against the snake in the ground, the Liu Family had been tyrannical for so many years, but he had never suffered such a huge loss. If he really wanted to take action, then this young man would not be able to recover his Sect. Based on everyone''s fear and understanding of Liu Family, they did not think highly of Chen Fan. C161 Just send out a random Senior Expert, using powerful means to instantly kill him, and then seal off the news. It''s just that another missing person appeared in the North Domain, so no one would know the truth. Without bothering with the discussion, Chen Fan turned around and left. The few Liu Family disciples that were still lying on the ground finally heaved a sigh of relief. Right now, they were powerless, and their entire bodies were drenched in sweat. They were afraid that the former would make a move and bring a few of their comrades to their deaths. Fortunately, he did not do anything to kill them. Right at this moment, in the great hall of Liu Family, a group of elders were discussing something. However, it seemed that they were in a particularly good mood, and were obviously in a state of fury. What was going on? Why didn''t he bring back a scroll?! Sitting right in front of him was the clan head, Liu Nan. He seemed to be in his forties or fifties, and his face was filled with rage. They had originally prepared to receive the scroll, but after waiting for a long time, only Liu Sen finally came back, only then did they realize that something was wrong. I did as you said, one hundred thousand Spiritual Stone. Furthermore, I raised them several times in succession, but when I realized that no one was competing with us, one of them suddenly came out. Liu Sen was also aware of the seriousness of the situation, but he couldn''t possibly take all of the responsibility on himself, so he quickly described everything. Furthermore, Ol ''Three had raised the price at the last moment, causing him to fail to bid. A few of his followers who were following him to discuss Auction also agreed, though they were still in a stunned state. He did not know why a single scroll would alarm all the upper echelons, but the matter of Liu Sen spending so much Spiritual Stone for the Pure Yang Sword, was completely concealed. Dammit, there''s really someone who has the intention to defy my Liu Family? Then he must be tired of living! One of the leader Chen Fan shouted, what happened, made the few old fellows extremely furious, and broke all their plans. With a "pa" sound, Liu Nan directly smashed the tables and chairs beside him, and a terrifying pressure spread throughout the entire great hall. Liu Sen and the others only felt a wave of pressure on their chests, and even the air seemed to have solidified. Did you send anyone to follow them? He definitely had to stop him. If he carried that scroll with him, other powers might also take notice of him and not let him escape. With the grand elder''s words, they were finally saved. Their bodies were covered in a layer of cold sweat. After the Auction ended, the first thing I did was to let Liu Yu go over and have a look, and we even had a conflict inside the city. Liu Sen hesitated for a while, before feigning grief. Unfortunately, that guy was extremely ruthless, killing Liu Yu, and also severely injured several other disciples. To an aristocratic family like Liu Family, there was no opponent within a radius of five hundred kilometers. It could be said to be the number one and biggest monster in the world. Bastard! Trash! He was simply a hooligan! Hearing this, even the normally calm Great Elder could no longer sit still. He did not expect that there would be casualties. You stole something from my Liu Family, yet you''re still so arrogant? You must investigate it thoroughly for me, and clear up his whereabouts! Just where did this little brat come from? I don''t know whether my Liu Family is the overlord of this region or if I''m clearly looking to die. The other elders'' expressions finally changed. Previously, they had only lost their scrolls, and no matter what, the responsibility was all on Liu Sen. Liu Nan should be strict with him. But now, there was actually someone who directly used the method of sacrificing one''s life to provoke the Liu Family. It was intolerable, let alone a large clan like theirs, which had stood for hundreds of years. Ai, if I had known earlier, I would have gone over personally and snatched the scroll back. Although Liu Nan was Liu Sen''s biological father, and the latter was destined to inherit his clan''s position, destroying this matter also caused him to be extremely disappointed. Father, if you give me a week''s time, I can definitely get the scroll back, and I won''t need to spend a single Spiritual Stone. Even if he was not confident, Liu Sen still patted his chest and guaranteed, his own father would definitely know his real intentions. The elders in the palace all wished they could personally go chase and kill Chen Fan, they knew what was written on the scroll, it might even affect the clan''s hundred years of luck. All of you should go down first. This trip to Auction can be considered a hard one, so you should all rest more. Liu Nan dismissed the other followers. Seeing this, the other elders also followed him out. In such a large family, only Liu Nan and the Great Elder were able to make the decision. They had the absolute authority to speak. From the looks of it, they were definitely going to tell Liu Sen about the secrets of the scroll. The latter had even activated the hidden Spell Formation in the entire hall. This way, no matter what they said, or whether they were talking or talking about Spiritual Consciousness s, they would not need to worry about their secrets being leaked out, and it was even more impossible for people to talk about coming in from the outside. Child, do you know what was recorded on that scroll? It was the last inheritance of the Ancient Saint in the entire North Domain. Liu Nan still felt a little regretful when he thought about it now. Originally, he thought that the distance between him and the Ancient Saint was less than ten meters. It really had something to do with the Ancient Saint! The Great Elder had more or less revealed some information to him previously, but she did not personally confirm it. Furthermore, ever since that senior had passed away in meditation, in the several thousand years that had passed, there had not been a single Ancient Saint that had appeared. The grand elder said leisurely. Only at such a level could they experience a Saint''s strength. It was already beyond the limits of manpower. If it was a thousand years ago, after they had reached the Nascent Infant level, a senior figure like the Great Clan Elder might have harbored yearning towards the Ancient Saint. He hoped that he would one day become a real Ancient Saint. But after such a long period of time, regardless of how talented he was or how powerful he was, without exception, all of his hopes were buried in the river of history. Although no one knew why, they could only use the most vulgar and simple Heavenly Dao to explain that the heavens and earth laws no longer allowed Ancient Saint s to appear. It was because of this that Liu Nan and the rest valued the scroll so highly ¡ª ¡ª not just because it was a large power like Liu Family, but also because it was as strong as Yuan Sect, but because it would also covet anything that was tainted with the word Ancient Saint. No wonder the pattern on it had a familiar feeling. This was the skill I cultivated since I was young, could there be a connection? That Ancient Saint had once come into contact with my Liu Family Ancestor in his later years, and had lived here for over half a month. The Great Clan Elder had told a story that most of the Liu Family disciples did not know, and it was precisely the key to the rise of this large clan. It seems that our Liu Family has grown precisely because of that Ancient Saint''s guidance. Liu Sen could not help but sigh. He remembered that the cultivation technique he had been cultivating must have been inherited by the Ancient Saint, which was why he thought that the piece of scroll was a little familiar. Speaking from this point, you and I are both considered the indirect descendants of the Ancient Saint, so of course, I have to inherit his inheritance. According to Liu Nan''s words, it was really irrefutable. It just so happened to be the same as Chen Fan''s wish from before. It was no exaggeration to say that if the Ancient Saint''s inheritance was successfully found, then there was a large chance that the Liu Family would inherit the Ancient Saint''s legacy completely. When the time comes, if they could silently digest this opportunity, their entire Liu Family would jump and become a large clan at the apex of North Domain. After all, the number of powers in the Ancient Saint that had such a background were few in number. Then he should have chased that brat back and never let him go far. Liu Sen clenched his fists tightly and said fiercely. He had finally realized the importance of this scroll to his Liu Family; although it wasn''t to the point of life and death, it was definitely worth it to put his life on the line. He''s also a VIP in the room next to yours, could he be someone from the other families? Great Elder still leaned towards being more steady. He could vaguely sense that there were other tricks behind this. He did not approve of acting rashly. He was probably a young man in his early twenties, and he had never appeared in any of the clans. He was a very unfamiliar face. Liu Sen said with certainty. He even specifically asked the disciples who came back with half their lives on the line, and even helped him draw a portrait. Then, he raised his hand and used the Spiritual Energy s, causing Chen Fan''s expression to change. Of course, this was not his original face. The Great Elder and Liu Nan all gathered around, carefully observing the surroundings. They searched their brains one by one. There were indeed a few other large clans nearby. After thinking about it, if it was really what they had stolen, it would be much easier to handle it. It would be nothing more than an apology, they just need to spend more Spiritual Stone s to get it back. With the current might of their Liu Family, if they were to try to force their way in, there might not even be a few major powers that could resist them. Well, it was indeed an outsider. After a long while, the two old fellows looked at each other and confirmed Chen Fan''s identity ¡ª he was not a member of those few large clans that were participating in Auction. This would increase the difficulty of the search. Their faces turned ugly, and after pondering for a while, Liu Nan finally spoke. He would first investigate his background. If it was not related to Yuan Sect and the others, then issue the wanted poster. It was impossible for him to travel too far in such a short period of time. The North Domain was truly too big. Within this circumference of a thousand kilometers, the Liu Family naturally meant nothing, but if he were to jump out of this circle, he might even lose the scroll. I heard that they are heading west, and the scouts I sent are still reporting back. Liu Sen added on at the right time. After finding out that Liu Yu had been beaten to death, he had already realized that the situation wasn''t good. C162 This brat either knew about the Ancient Saint''s inheritance or there was someone guiding him from behind. The Great Elder mumbled to himself in confusion. Under normal circumstances, how could there be a young man who spent so many Spiritual Stone s to fight over the scrolls with them? Looks like I can''t leave him alive. Should I send an elder to eliminate him? Liu Nan was also a little hesitant. Their main goal was still the scroll. If they were to kill someone, then even more unforeseen events might occur. He continued to send people to keep an eye on him. He was ready to suppress him at any time. If there were any signs of escape, kill him on the spot! Even if it was possible to offend a colossus like Yuan Sect, he had no choice but to do so. You''ve worked hard, so don''t leave the family for this period of time. Just to be safe, Liu Nan banned Liu Sen. After these two old fellows made their decision, their entire Liu Family began to circulate. Many disciples went out to investigate, while the Protector Rankers prepared to chase down Chen Fan. Although Liu Nan had specifically ordered for them not to discuss anything related to the scroll, this Heavy Treasure had to be kept secret, so that not a single strand of information could be leaked out. If other powers or sects were to find out, the inheritance of the Ancient Saint would definitely cause even more troubles for the Liu Family. At that time, it would be hard to say whether or not it would be enough. Those disciples also noticed the anxiety of the upper echelons and naturally did not dare to slight them. The overall atmosphere became even more tense. Just like how the Yuan Sect was furious before, with this family as the core, a formless large net was being spread out, with the limit being a distance of five hundred kilometers. If they went any farther, their hands would not be able to reach it. This was the sealing line that Liu Nan had personally drawn. Although Chen Fan did not take the matter of Liu Family to heart, it was clear that he had underestimated the former''s determination towards this scroll. In the next few days, he would need to be scouted and followed from time to time. However, when he turned around and wanted to face them head on, those fellows immediately ran away. They didn''t even give him the chance to attack. He always felt very aggrieved. He didn''t pay attention to the distance of a thousand miles. He didn''t seem to care at all. He still casually walked around, but he would occasionally change his figure. The Liu Family disciples who were following them from behind had often lost them, and had to go through a lot of groping and groping before they could continue to search for them. And even the news about him reporting to Liu Nan, having confirmed Chen Fan''s movements a moment ago, would be immediately overturned by a new situation. As a result, he was unable to encircle and kill them, which made it even harder to act rashly with the other powerhouses scattered everywhere. He didn''t even dare to be sure that they were being followed. Under Deer God''s persuasion, Chen Fan could finally let go of his worries. Laying down a long line to catch some big fish, these were all just small ways to scout the way, there would definitely be some true experts of Liu Family behind them. When that time came, they could have a hearty battle and perhaps even have other unexpected gains. It was likely that a large clan that could easily produce a million Spiritual Stone would have a very rich family. With this thought in mind, he passed by several cities and finally stopped outside his teacher''s residence. There wasn''t any other reason, it was just that he had heard that Auction was about to be held here. Due to the fact that his strength had yet to grow to the point where he could move forward in the Wilderness and Infernal Realm, it would be useless for him to hold onto this scroll. At the very least, he would have to break through to the Core Formation Stage Realm before taking the risk. Since he had nothing better to do, Auction was a special attraction to Chen Fan and he might be able to find something good like a scroll. Excuse me, may I ask how do I get to the Auction s in this city? Chen Fan originally only wanted to ask for directions, but was stopped by an old man. Young man, your bones are amazing. You are a martial arts genius that is hard to come across in a hundred years ¡­ Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Chen Fan turned his head. He knew even better than the former about the words of the God Rod, there might even be some things that were passed down from his era. Looking at the old man''s clothes, he was wearing a green robe and had a goatee on his chin. He was also holding an old and dilapidated flag in his hand. It seemed like it would be more appropriate to change the words on the flag into a godly stick. Needless to say, I have known about martial arts geniuses for many years. Chen Fan replied with a smile, one sentence choked the former to death. Then, should he calculate it? Divination, deduction, and logic were all things that the old me was proficient in. This was absolutely one calculation after another, and there had never been any mistakes. The Goatee Elder was still not willing to give up, and then he tugged at Chen Fan, his fingers pinched twice, and it was unknown whether it was true or not, there were no Spiritual Energy ripples. Forget it, I don''t even know what my fate is, how can you figure it out? Ye Zichen shook his head. He didn''t expect to get anything out of the old man and was about to leave. However, this old man was quite persistent and probably hadn''t opened for a long time. It''s true, I''ve never lied to anyone. This is the truth. Since you''ve already said so, then I''ll show you my name. Have you seen this kind of pattern? Chen Fan did not reject it directly, he simply waved his hand, and the lines on the scroll immediately appeared in the air. Wu, isn''t it just some Ancient Saint''s mark, I think, who exactly is it? The old man stroked his beard, as if he was deep in thought. This time, it was Chen Fan''s turn to be shocked. He originally wanted to use this pattern to force the old fellow to retreat, thinking that it was impossible for him to meet the latter. How could they not feel surprised? It was just that they had casually bumped into an old man inside the Changyu City, it was just too much of a coincidence. Have you heard of the Ancient Saint? Why are young people these days so impolite? I want you to have a respectful title, okay? This fellow sure has a lot to do, he replied unhappily. Chen Fan:... He really had the impulse to directly reveal his identity, as TangTang''s ten-thousand-year old freak would be taught a lesson by a shriveled old man. Can you explain to me in detail the background of that Ancient Saint as well as the background of these veined patterns? Being under the roof, he had no choice but to lower his head. Chen Fan muttered to himself, and could only admit defeat. It seemed that this old fellow truly knew some secrets. It was quite a long time ago, and Yu Ming had once left a trace of karma behind in the neighboring city, allowing him to directly give birth to a large clan called Liu Family. The goatee shook the small flag in his hand, and shook his head again. If he allowed Deer God to become one with him, he would definitely be able to stabilize his North Domain and become the leader of the group. Even though his mouth was full of insider information, with his actions and attire, it didn''t sound like he was speaking the truth. He would rather believe that he was making things up. So Liu Family had such a origin, then what did it have to do with this pattern? Chen Fan continued to ask, he really did not know if he should sigh at the fact that this world was too small or what, and how he could casually bump into an old fellow who was able to chat casually with the Ancient Saint. As for the Liu Family, he didn''t care at all. Even if there was a part related to the Ancient Saint s, it would only explain the reason behind the crazy bidding in the Auction. Tsk tsk tsk, not only do youngsters these days not act courteously, it seems that they even want to empty-handed. They want to listen to my lecture, but they don''t even show the slightest sign of it. He didn''t think that this old man would still be rubbing his hands and would gently twist them to make a movement that anyone would be able to recognize, even if they were a normal person. Give me a price. I really want to know the relationship between these runes and Yu Ming. Don''t think too much about it. When he was here, Chen Fan added to avoid arousing the old fellow''s suspicions. When they were outside, they would have to be cautious, maybe this was a spy from Liu Family. Logically speaking, this kind of secret is related to Liu Family and their fate, but this old man has always been fair and square. Those large clans have exploited us quite a bit, so it should be their turn to pay the price. Three hundred Spiritual Stone. If you want to ask, just ask. This old man is eating this bowl of rice, I will tell you everything I know. The Goatee Elder talked for a long time before finally offering a high price. It was enough for an ordinary Foundation Building Stage cultivator to use up most of half a month. Hearing that, Chen Fan did not haggle any further, these Spiritual Stone were something that he could take out, and he handed them over to the Goatee Elder. Oh right, you have to say, where did you get this tattoo from? If it involves a taboo that shouldn''t be said, it''s impossible for this old man to reveal it. Revealing his large yellow teeth, the old man laughed as he spoke, his muddy eyes filled with treachery and light. This was truly the first time, and that was the first time, that someone actually wanted to pry out more Spiritual Stone s from Zhi Zun''s body within the five days. Even though he had to pay such a huge price to get the scroll, a few hundred Spiritual Stone were nothing to Chen Fan. He straightforwardly took out a thousand and gave them to his. Tell me everything you know, and don''t make any mistakes or omissions. If I find out that you are hiding something, then don''t even think about this old life of yours. Chen Fan''s voice was filled with chilliness, his tone had also become more stiff, a majestic pressure was emitted from his body, aimed at the goatee elder, and not a single passerby noticed it. Compared to these Spiritual Stone, he was more curious as to how the old fellow knew so many secrets. He immediately put on a cold face, using both hard and soft was the best strategy. Hehe, it seems that young people have quite the temper. Alright, alright. This is not a good place to talk. C163 Who would have thought that Chen Fan would suddenly change his expression? The goatee''s expression was obviously delayed by two to three breaths of time, and then he forced out a dry laugh. It just so happens that this old man sees us two as fated. Today, I''ll treat you, and we''ll go to the Hua Qing Pool to soak for a while. It wasn''t appropriate to say that bullying the weak and fear the strong, but if he were to just obediently hand over a thousand Spiritual Stone, he might even be extorted. However, if he was too tough, such as using brute force to force the old fellow to speak the truth, the latter would definitely have a more tactful method. In short, this was an invisible showdown between experts. The goatee elder took the initiative to retreat, and after obtaining so many benefits, he even brought up some suggestions to enjoy the show. Chen Fan replied indifferently and followed him. He also wanted to try out the so called Hua Qing Pool s, and after going deeper into the city, he discovered that this city had grown quite a bit. Yu Ming should have been a very merciful person. Back then, he had only left due to the circumstances surrounding Liu Family, and he had actually helped them create such a large family clan. I heard you say that you want to participate in Auction just now, then you really came to the right place. Our city''s large-scale Auction is also one of the top within a radius of a thousand kilometers. However, the Auction has to be held later, if there''s no living space tonight, this old man can help you make the arrangements. On the way, the Goat Elder fully explained the meaning of the words "chattering". Although Chen Fan did not have the intention to care about it, he did not need to answer. All of his attention was focused on his surroundings. Even after walking seven to eight kilometers, he had yet to reach the center. It was clear that there was definitely an even longer distance ahead of him. It could be said to be a large city. Hua Qing Pool. Looking at the signboard above his head, for a moment Chen Fan thought that he had arrived outside Yi Bao Zhai, but then immediately shook his head. Why is my mind filled with Auction now? It couldn''t be said that he was completely uninterested in things like bathing, but as a Cultivator, he could casually use his Spiritual Energy to remove the filth on his body, so there was no need to go through all this trouble. Let''s go, young man. Let''s go in now. Vaguely, Chen Fan seemed to have heard the Goatee Elder introduce himself. His name was Zu Chong, and the surname was too easy to take advantage of. It was just a simple bath, why would they need to use such a great battle formation? Looking at the grand hall in front of him, he estimated that it took up at least three thousand meters of land. Furthermore, the construction was extremely grand, so even if there was an emperor living in it, it wouldn''t be surprising. However, Zu Chong''s introduction just now seemed to be a place to take a bath, Chen Fan was extremely confused, just who was the one who would be so bored? You don''t know about this, right? Hua Qing Pool have a very famous reputation in our entire North Domain, and the only thing special about them are the Changyu City. Zu Chong laughed strangely and walked straight in. With the personality that he had revealed in such a short period of time, he had clearly taken the initiative to invite Chen Fan in. He shouldn''t be even more anxious than Chen Fan. Was it really that mysterious? With a curious expression on his face, Chen Fan followed them in. He realized that there wasn''t anything like a counter here, it was just a few tunnels with different stable words carved on them. Before he could clearly see what was written on it, he was already dragged away by Zu Chong. The latter was obviously a regular customer long ago, as he zigzagged his way in, passing through several tunnels and rooms in a row. During this process, Zu Chong took out two insignia from an unknown place. From time to time, he would encounter a heavy door, and had to use it to pass. Taking a bath was such a strenuous task. No matter how clean one''s body was, after such a long distance rush, it would still tire one''s body to the point of perspiration. Chen Fan secretly cursed. In the end, they arrived at a vast hall, or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that this was just a huge pit, and only the edges could barely stand firm. Hehe, this is the ultimate enjoyment that is not inferior to heaven. In the future, you will definitely thank this old man. Zu Chong said as he jumped twice and entered the pond like a landlubber. His old face was like the blossoming of a daisy. It was hard to tell whether he was feeling comfortable or just faking it. In any case, it was all an exaggeration. Come on, it''s definitely not a good place to be chosen by an old fogey like you. The way she said it was, she was purely holding onto the thousand plus Spiritual Stone she had spent to listen to Zu Chong mutter about Yu Ming. But as soon as Chen Fan tried to probe further and submerged into the water, and his body came in contact with the Spirit Liquid, he immediately regretted it. He immediately understood why a guy like Zu Chong would be willing to throw such a huge amount of money. However, he still forcefully maintained a calm expression, ensuring that no one else would see through his face-smacking. It was not a scam as he had imagined. The Hua Qing Pool had dared to expand the so-called bathhouse to such a large extent, there must be a reason behind it. Every single drop of the genuine and pure Spirit Liquid seemed to be exuding a fragrance, and its energy was extremely rich. As long as one laid down inside, all the pores on one''s body would instantly open up. Although the number of Spiritual Energy increased exponentially, it was very gentle. As long as he laid down, he could clearly feel his cultivation increasing. He did not feel like he had closed his eyes, as Chen Fan had emptied himself, making him feel even more comfortable than when he was in that private room. No one would resist Human Clan cultivators, who had this kind of feeling of returning to their mothers'' hearts and hearts. Instead, there was an unusual sense of security. For the past few days, because of Lan Yu and the Great Elder, Chen Fan had always been a little impatient, not to mention that he had recently added on to the chase with Liu Family. Only when he was surrounded by these Spirit Liquid did he understand what was true tranquility. If he could stay in this place for a long time, his mental state''s breakthrough speed would definitely increase by several fold. No wonder this pool was so quiet. No one wanted to destroy such a peaceful place, not to mention that they were all quietly absorbing energy, releasing all their concentration. During this process, there were more people who kept coming over. They were originally heading towards Chen Fan''s direction, but they were immediately stopped by Zu Chong, who probably wanted to pay his Spiritual Stone. Spirit Liquid with such abundant energy would obviously not be opened for free. Furthermore, there was a special time limit as well. In such a large pond, there were at least a hundred people lying there. Anyone could fairly enjoy such a high-quality cultivation environment, and only paid the price of a few Spiritual Stone. C164 Although they were frantically absorbing energy, there was a limit to what their bodies could bear. In the end, it would definitely be the Hua Qing Pool that would benefit the most. Using the Spiritual Stone s collected, he maintained the operation of this pond. With this many Cultivator s happily participating, and even joking around to compete with each other, there were no restrictions at all. No matter what kind of identity or background he had, as long as he laid down and put them away without restraint, the Hua Qing Pool would not end up in a situation like this. Furthermore, cultivators of different realms would also be arranged to live in different ponds. It was impossible to mix Nascent Infant Stage Expert and Foundation Establishment cultivators together, and with such a large gap, there was no way to place them. Just the strength of a single breath was already comparable to half a month of bitter cultivation of an ordinary person. Moreover, there was no senior who was willing to lower himself to the level of being disgraced. In any case, no one cared. The more the merrier, so he had to absorb as much as he could. The Deer God could also be attracted by such a dense energy. If he had enough Spiritual Energy s to be channeled, it would be of great benefit to him. Not bad, not bad. In the future, this sort of place would definitely come often. Without even needing Chen Fan to activate it, the body that had been dry for a long time started to move on its own. With his current physical strength, he had long since exceeded the limit for cultivators of the same cultivation level. It could be counted as multiple times, which was why he possessed the strength to battle those of a higher cultivation level. In actuality, when Chen Fan escaped to the ground and went to sleep ten thousand years ago, even if it was to make use of his aura to ensure that the heavens did not discover his use, his body''s cultivation could easily suppress the power of Nascent Infant Stage. It was just that after so many years of consumption, the small amount of wear and tear had reached a point where he could not even be compared with an ordinary person when he just broke out from the ground. Very quickly, the Spirit Liquid around his body began to fluctuate, and then converged into a whirlpool, with strands and strands of Talisman flowing out as well. The Three Sacred Arts was absorbing all the Spiritual Energy s in the vicinity, using this special method to constantly strengthen his body. Quite a few people on the side cast their gazes over. They had originally been soaking in comfort, but in the end, they were all interrupted. Everyone was alarmed; there were very few people who were able to cause such a huge commotion. In the end, even this whirlpool began to spread throughout the entire pool. Circles of ripples spread out, and yet, an endless stream of Spiritual Energy surged into his body from the shadows. He did not need his consciousness to guide him at all. Casually flipping a few movements, allowing more of his body to enter into the Spirit Liquid s, would naturally bring about an unimaginably rich harvest. Others were not alarmed by the waves, but when one came to Chen Fan''s place, they saw that waves were churning about a hundred meters away from him. And as the distance between them shortened, it seemed as if they arrived at the center of the storm. The vortex spun faster and faster, as if it was a gigantic monster trying its best to devour energy sources. Crash! * After being immersed in the water for so many years, they had never seen such a bizarre scene, to actually cause such a huge disturbance in the Foundation Building Stage. After carefully calculating for half a quarter of an hour, even the water level of the entire pond had dropped by half a foot. This was a huge project. Because there would always be Cultivator entering, the Hua Qing Pool would also secretly fill up to ensure that the water level would not change. This phenomenon signified that Chen Fan''s speed had actually already surpassed theirs. Countless astonished gazes surrounded him, but the main character did not notice them. He was still immersed in the cultivation progress that could be seen by the naked eye. The reserves in his Dantian were rapidly increasing. As for the sound of flowing water, a large portion of it even came from his meridians. Once the Spiritual Energy''s concentration was saturated, it would immediately be forcefully refined, so the usage of the Myriad Flower Divine Art was not to be underestimated. Within a circumference of one hundred zhang with him at the center, more or less all of the light mist rose up. It looked very dense, and it really did have a feeling of being in the realm of immortals. Relying on this external force, Chen Fan felt that his consciousness was constantly sinking. He actually entered into a state of half comprehending the dao, which, of course, was completely controllable. Ever since they had experienced the training in the Qing Xuan Sect, they had practically gained a qualitative leap, which was why they were able to have sufficient confidence in raising the realm of Zhao Xu and his disciple. Although they did not experience any life and death battles, the Foundation Building Stage''s barrier was not that strong in the first place. What was lacking was just the stability of the Spiritual Energy. In this half a month that he had travelled through various large cities, he had indirectly experienced the feeling of having his heart refined in the mortal world. Coincidentally, there was also the big man from Liu Family who took action, giving Chen Fan a ready opportunity. He was like a ball brimming with energy. He needed a small primer to release the energy he was carrying and it struck the shackles of the innate experts. The Talisman s were bright, with more than a hundred of them surrounding Chen Fan''s body. Most of them were still stirring up the Spirit Liquid s, and when they broke through, they naturally used the Three Holy Arts as their main force. Searching the entire continent, there was nothing more ferocious than the power of three Ancient Saint s, and at the same time, they were unique in supporting cultivation. Even the direct disciples of Yuan Sect would not receive such treatment. What was this kid up to? It was as though he had never seen it before. He must be from another world. Who would go and stop him? Wasn''t this dark? What would happen if he exploded after a while? Chen Fan''s actions finally aroused the dissatisfaction of the others, and if he continued to gather all of them, the entire pool would be drained dry. Just a moment ago, he was still holding the attitude of watching a good show, but he never thought that Chen Fan would still have the intention to stay and still maintain his momentum. This made them panic. They had spent so many Spiritual Stone s and still hadn''t gotten back to normal yet, so they couldn''t really just take a bath. Hey, hey, hey, pay attention. We''re all cultivating here, what''s the big deal if you take it all away? A youth stood up and shouted. Although there wasn''t any extravagant clothing, one could still see the noble air on his face. It was clear that he was a rich young master. Tch, you also spent your own Spiritual Stone, you can only blame yourself for being weak, what''s the use of saying all this? These words were not said by Chen Fan, but Deer God borrowed his body to speak, the former''s consciousness was still deep inside his dantian, and had not been disturbed. What did you say? Say another one for me to try?! This young man was originally angry, and now that he had been choked back by the Deer God, he naturally could not keep his face straight. Little brat, I don''t have any salary to nag you, and you''re still so cocky despite being naked. Do you have any manners? Deer God waved his hands, he did not even have the intention to stand up. With his temper, he could only act like an old hero at Chen Fan''s place. It was just that at the moment, Chen Fan did not notice that the shackles of the second transformation were right in front of him. He was trying his best to break it open, so the Deer God could not allow anyone to interrupt the process. The Three Holy Arts and the Ten Thousand Holy Arts could attract a huge amount of Spirit Liquid. It was as heavy as a mountain and it isolated all of the Spiritual Consciousness inside his dantian. Oh, it''s really funny, I have quite a bit of face in Changyu City, I never thought that there would be a time when someone would point at my nose and scold me, where are you from, brat?! This youth was so angry that he laughed instead. What he said was not wrong, and the others who were in the pool saw that he was the one who said it and stopped talking, their expressions turning even weirder. Since it was no good provoking someone, they had to pick a fight with him. This time, things were not going to end well for them. Heh heh, let''s just watch and watch. Every time there''s a commotion over this, it will definitely cause a storm. You can''t say it like that, this young man is really going too far, he doesn''t even put us in his eyes, and this Hua Qing Pool isn''t owned by him. Listening to the whispers and discussions at the side, it seemed that this young man in front of him had quite the background. From the way he spoke, it was obvious that he had a deep background. But Deer God did not think so. In terms of temper, he was older than Chen Fan, and had never gotten angry before. The magnificent avatar of the Heavenly Law was not to the extent of being frightened by a junior. Looking at how young you are and speaking in such a muddled manner, the adults at home didn''t teach you, right? You''re too impetuous, and such a small matter could hurt your liver. Deer God had the attitude of a senior, which neglected the fact that he was the leader of this body. He was also a little over twenty, and with such an aged attitude, it made the other party feel like he was purposefully provoking him. Ka-cha! * Coincidentally, when the two were in a confrontation, a crisp sound came out from Chen Fan''s body. The barrier that had sealed him for more than a month was finally broken. The surging Spirit Liquid entered his body in a nearly crazed manner. Every meridian was filled to the extreme, and it seemed like it was unceasingly moving, but in fact, it was extremely smooth. After all, after such a long period of tempering, his entire body had recovered to a great degree, and his meridians were much wider. He already had the foundation to make a breakthrough. This guy ¡­ He actually broke through at the Hua Qing Pool? Seeing Chen Fan''s abnormal state, and how his aura fluctuated up and down, everyone quickly realized what was happening. These kinds of things weren''t rare. Many Cultivator who sensed that they were on the verge of a breakthrough would come to the Hua Qing Pool. Although it was a common environment, it could be seen as the best idea for the cultivators at the bottom level. People would come here every few days to break through to the next realm. With the help of such dense Spirit Liquid, they could basically all succeed, and the cost wasn''t too high either. However, before the shock on their faces could fade, what followed next was another shocking scene. That vortex followed Chen Fan''s actions, and quickly expanded in size. In the span of a few breaths, it had expanded to more than thirty meters in size, and even occupied a corner of the pool. As the rotation speed increased, the water level in the pool dropped at a speed visible to the naked eye. This process happened extremely quickly, and it was too late for anyone to stop it. C165 And after receiving the sea of pure Spiritual Energy, Chen Fan''s posture became even more ferocious. The Hua Qing Pool must have specially treated these Spirit Liquid to be more compatible with cultivation. He directly transformed into a bottomless pit. The Three Sacred Arts and the Ten Thousand Arts were enhanced at the same time, the two wings on his back spread out, and the Seven Transformations of Heavenly Universe was not to be outdone. Although there were no Heaven Rankings, it could still cause a large amount of disturbance. Seeing this, many people thought that he was a Demon Clan. Only when he was submerged in the Spirit Liquid s did they realize that his wings were the manifestation of a Talisman, and not his true body. Right now, they could only watch the show. Even the angry young man was stunned, he did not expect that so many Spirit Liquid were stuffed inside. Furthermore, this fellow didn''t look anything abnormal at all. Given that he was around five feet tall, if it were anyone else, they would have exploded on impact. Even if the cultivators could convert the Spirit Liquid into their actual combat power, it was really unimaginable how they would be able to move everything within a circumference of a thousand meters into a normal Human Clan''s body. Countless of astonished gazes looked over, looking at Chen Fan as if he was a newly revived monster. Just what was going on? All the cultivators above Foundation Building Stage were going to the neighboring pond? Did you really think of me, the Hua Qing Pool, as the porridge academy? From the entrance, another young man appeared. It was actually the young master of the Hua Qing Pool, Sun Feng. When they saw that the situation had gone out of control, one of the attendants ran back to report and angrily walked over. When he saw the scene in the pond, he was stunned as well. Taking advantage of this, Chen Fan opened his eyes and finally regained his consciousness. He had already sensed that something was amiss in the outside world, with the protection of that old fellow, it should not be a problem. He looked around and did not realise what had happened. Those people stared at him and thought Deer God had just said a few words. However, he soon noticed the abnormality beneath his feet. Originally, it should have been in a state of water rippling, but now it seemed to have dried up. Kid, are you here to pick a fight? Sun Feng regained his senses and was immediately anxious. Just like he had said, Hua Qing Pool had to earn money, if they wanted to replenish this pool of Spirit Liquid, they would need to pay a large price. Under normal circumstances, they would only be able to complete one rotation every two days if they could operate smoothly. However, now that they were in such a state due to Chen Fan, they had already lost a lot. Since you have dug up this pool and promised that you can absorb it as you please within the allotted time, you should be prepared for this. Chen Fan replied in all seriousness. Yang Cheng noticed that the current him seemed to be a different person. From the way he spoke to his attitude, it was entirely different from before, which further confirmed the guess in his heart. Sun Feng, I already said that there is something wrong with this guy, he has hidden his true realm, and is here to cause trouble! This is simply a bunch of nonsense. You can''t afford it, but you want to blame it on me. Where had Chen Fan ever received such a reprimand? He retaliated back without hesitation. A perfect misunderstanding formed just like that. Chen Fan thought that Yang Cheng was purposely looking for trouble with him and even specially asked for help. And the only reason was because he disturbed''s cultivation. Sun Feng had suffered such a huge loss, so he had to stand on the former''s side and pressure Chen Fan. There must be something behind such a strange matter. This friend here, we had already made a rule a long time ago that was posted near the entrance. Cultivator above Foundation Building Stage cannot come to this pool, you clearly want to take advantage of us. Sun Feng shouted harshly. The concentration and prices of Spirit Liquid in the pools Cultivator s of every level varied as well. In his opinion, Chen Fan''s actions could not be any clearer. She was simply trying to use a method to hide her presence, but in the end she could not stop herself, which was why she revealed herself. I have to do this kind of dirty stuff, but when I get to the Foundation Building Stage s, will I still care about this little bit of Spiritual Stone? That''s right, he might have already reached the realm of Core Formation Stage, but he was still trying to break through. It was really a wonder how he managed to do so. Some people are born with dog shit luck, like us just have to recite our words, we can even meet with this kind of situation after soaking in it for a while. Everyone started to discuss among themselves with Chen Fan, supporting him on one side. The former had instigated such a huge commotion, causing them to suffer a loss, and the pool was emptied before the time was over. It seemed like the scene of him breaking through earlier wasn''t fake ¡­ Another voice came from the corner, but he could not pinpoint the source of the voice. It was Zu Chong who changed the tone, as he still wanted to watch a good show. It''s really laughable, it''s the first time someone had such doubts. Even I don''t have the courage to ensure that I can reach the Core Formation Stage Realm. If not for his anxious face, he would not have been able to hold back and laughed out loud. Why did you all start praising me like this? Could it be that the Changyu City is so simple and unadorned? Everyone was speechless now. As Cultivator, they were very familiar with the information of breaking a shackle and would never fake it. Taking a step back, even if Chen Fan really had some tricks up his sleeves to trick them, it was all for the sake of absorbing Spirit Liquid s from this pond. This also meant that the latter''s cultivation had reached Core Formation Stage and was not something they could handle. What the hell did you do? Chen Fan asked the Deer God in his heart. From the reactions of these fellows, it seemed that it was different from what he had imagined. It''s nothing much. I only cursed a few words in your place. You have to protect the dignity of our Shoulderless Sovereign and the Heaven''s Path Divine Avatar. The Deer God responded with the same righteous response, and it was just like that it was irrefutable. But the two of them had stayed together for such a long time, so Chen Fan could be clearer than anyone else about Deer God''s personality and his habits. If it was something that was worth his face growing up, he didn''t even need to specially ask about it. Deer God would have to think about it a hundred and eighty times in his head, until his ears recognized the old cocoon. However, this old fellow had dodged the question and didn''t directly answer, which had already explained a lot of things. Chen Fan couldn''t help but think about it carefully. In this period of time when he did not control his body and had lost consciousness, what had the Deer God done to arouse public anger? Speaking of which, Chen Fan was not such an unreasonable person. He had originally wanted to give Sun Feng some compensation as an appropriate apology. In the end, this guy yelled at him, making him angry. Now that the two sides were at each other, there was no way for them to settle this peacefully. After a long period of silence, Sun Feng broke the slightly awkward atmosphere. He was enraged this time, he never thought that even after this kid squeezed out all the Spirit Liquid, he was still so confident and confident. No matter how capable you are, as long as you make a mistake in this Hua Qing Pool, you will have to pay the price! If you ask me, what did I do wrong? Chen Fan, who was more or less stunned, subconsciously replied. In this world, there was no one who could judge him, let alone pay for his mistakes. To squeeze all the Spirit Liquid out and hide their cultivation, this is blatantly deceiving me, Hua Qing Pool s, or else take out enough of them and get the hell out. Sun Feng pointed to the direction of the door. Don''t look at his young age, ever since he took over the Hua Qing Pool''s business, he had also performed very well. Either I help you pull out the Spiritual Stone, and we''ll just happen to be here, which is exactly the place where the meridians and bones can be activated, so you can only crawl out. Hehe, the last person who spoke to me in such a manner regretted it in less than an hour. In order to avoid causing even more conflict, Chen Fan had specially altered the circumstances that Hu Mu had encountered. He was already in the wrong, so he couldn''t let Sun Feng call him grandfather. Impudent, this is the Hua Qing Pool, not your humble place! Zu Chong could not help but berate angrily as well. Tsk, it''s just a slightly larger bathroom. If it wasn''t for someone treating me, I wouldn''t even be able to make it in. Chen Fan''s heart stirred. He brought the old fellow along as well, and almost forgot that the reason he came here was because of the old Divine Staff. No, no, no. Everyone, please give this old man some face. This little brother here is indeed a little strange, how can he ¡­ Seeing that, Zu Chong also stood up, laughing happily to smooth things over. He was still thinking about how to retrieve even more Spiritual Stone from Chen Fan''s body, so of course he had to take sides with him now. However, before he could finish speaking, he saw the young man''s face and immediately went silent, seeming to be very afraid of him. This old man, have we met somewhere before? Sun Feng asked in confusion, seeing that the old face looked somewhat familiar. No, no, no, this old man only came to Changyu City today. Previously, I have always been wandering around everywhere, and you and I don''t have any connections. Zu Chong shook his hands, he was so nervous that he had gone overboard, this reaction made people even more suspicious. No, no, that''s not true. I have the same feeling, I can''t possibly remember wrongly. Yang Cheng also said on the side, but he could not remember why, it was just a vague impression. Hehe, this old man''s face is very common. People often admit their wrongs in the streets, I am already used to it. Zu Chong dryly laughed twice, but no matter how he listened, he felt a little guilty. However, Yang Cheng''s attention was now completely focused on Chen Fan, and when he turned around, his face was filled with rage. The two of them had unique statuses, so it was impossible for them to swallow this anger easily. Brat, I think you really don''t know what being arrogant means. Looks like I will have to teach you a lesson. Sun Feng called out, and a few servants immediately closed up the entrance, preventing others from entering for the time being, so that they could resolve the entire issue. C166 Yang Cheng who was at the side also made his preparations. His battle intent was surging and the Spiritual Energy around him was surging. Let''s all calm down first and take a step back. We''ll compensate them when it''s time, apologize when it''s time, and it''s just a misunderstanding. There''s no need to cause such a ruckus. Zu Chong braced himself and said. For some reason, he always lowered his head intentionally, his actions looking a little strange, as if he was afraid that others would see his face. Hmph, I don''t want to be entangled with you guys anymore. Thirty thousand Spiritual Stone, not a single more, just treat it as the compensation for these Spirit Liquid. Chen Fan coldly snorted, he could not lose in momentum, but he had indeed used up someone else''s Spirit Liquid, so he should also express that he wanted to follow Zu Chong''s words and take this opportunity. Apologize! Sun Feng''s attitude was extremely unyielding. The Spiritual Stone is here, so we don''t owe each other anything. If we take another inch, then don''t blame me for being impolite. Chen Fan did not care about whether it was justifiable or not, directly taking out a bunch of Spiritual Stone the size of small mountains, and throwing them on the ground without even looking. To be able to apologize from his mouth was not something that could be done with just these two fellows. In Chen Fan''s opinion, they were second only to kneeling in humiliation, and could barely be considered as half a reverse scale for him. After that, Chen Fan immediately took a step forward and was about to leave. Regarding this unforeseen event, he did not want to waste any more time, because two of his followers blocked his path. Bastard, what do you think of my Hua Qing Pool as? You just have to let it out for a bit, and then come as you please, and leave as you please. Obviously, Sun Feng still insisted on Chen Fan''s apology. Compared to the loss of the several tens of thousands of Spiritual Stone, the Hua Qing Pool''s reputation was even more important. Today, Chen Fan had mysteriously squeezed out all of the Spirit Liquid and threw out tens of thousands of them before he could leave. With so many onlookers on the scene, it was certain that news would spread out. At that time, everyone in the city would laugh at his incompetence, and make a fool of him in broad daylight. There was no other way. Sometimes, these large powers viewed their face as incomparably important. No matter what they lost, they would still fight for it. Since the conversation has come to this, what is there to hesitate about? The space here is too small, if we can''t use it, we can go outside and spar. What a coincidence, Chen Fan had just broken through a realm and had the intention to test his combat power, so he didn''t mind using these two fellows to teach him a lesson. Even though he had already given so many Spiritual Stone s, enough to fill the pool, yet he was still unwilling to let them go, which also made him very angry. The Deer God in the Zifu Space had already lost all signs of life. He was a person who was determined to see the world in chaos, not to mention that he was the one who had instigated this commotion. Heh, don''t think I don''t know what you''re thinking. I''m just thinking about the outside so that I can escape. Yang Cheng sneered twice. He was more realistic, if it was in normal times, then taking the Spiritual Stone would be fine. But he and Sun Feng were originally old friends, so he couldn''t just watch the latter get slapped in the face and immediately jump out to refute. With a petty attitude, a gentleman''s belly, I''m afraid I''m talking about you. Chen Fan used the Spiritual Consciousness to secretly glance at the cultivation levels of the two, he could pretty much handle them too, so he was relieved, and said. Since you already know that I am lying, then I shall let you know that Core Formation Stage experts may not bother to fool you. Ever since he had emerged from the ground and returned to being a human, Chen Fan no longer had his previous Zhi Zun strength, and no longer avoided the word "run". Especially when he was chased around the world by the bodyguards of the Yuan Sect, he had realized more clearly than ever in these ten thousand years that living was the only proper punishment. He had even specially learned the Buddha Arts from Nangong Xuan''s hands. They could turn into a stream of light and escape in a matter of minutes, so no one would be able to stop him. Just like the situation today, both Yang Cheng and Sun Feng were also in the Foundation Establishment Eight Transformations. However, their auras were a little high, so Chen Fan was confident in being able to tie with them. If you really have the guts, then follow me to the plaza in the city, and let everyone see what happens when I, Hua Qing Pool, go on a rampage. Sun Feng sounded like he was ridiculing Chen Fan, but at the same time, his decision held deeper meaning. In the period of time that he had taken over the Hua Qing Pool, although the profit rate of the Spiritual Stone had increased, it was still too young. Many of them were able to find out after the fact that there was actually someone trying to cause trouble for him. It was just that they were afraid of the support of the Senior Expert behind Sun Feng, and did not dare to expose it to the public. It just so happened that today, he wanted to take advantage of Chen Fan''s reasoning and use his iron-blooded wrist to slash at him, to make those petty people stop thinking about other things. Although he had never seen Chen Fan before in the Changyu City, Sun Feng was extremely suspicious of the former''s background. Why would I not dare? Chen Fan and Zu Chong gave their silent permission before they opened the door of Hua Qing Pool to the outside world. The few of them walked out first, looking at each other with displeasure. The remaining group of people also quickly went to the plaza, which was viewed as the place where Changyu City provided the location for the duel. As cultivators, most of them had some temper. If all of them were like the peacemakers, there would be no point in cultivating, and they would all be misunderstood as useless. The usually dull and boring closed-door training had left him in a bad mood. If he were to walk around on the streets, he might occasionally bump into someone and a conflict would break out between them. Almost every city would have a special plaza, which was located in the center. It usually took up a lot of space, and was protected by the Spell Formation. Although no one had openly admitted it, everyone was well aware that if they wanted to have a match or a fight that would end any time soon, it was the best choice. Currently, three figures were standing proudly in the middle of the field, each standing in a different position. An invisible pressure was spreading out, suppressing the other. What was going on? The young master of the Hua Qing Pool was planning to take care of everything himself? Just where did this come from? Someone had sucked all the Spirit Liquid dry in the Hua Qing Pool and, according to the rumors, intentionally concealed his cultivation and ran into the low leveled pond. Heh, this is going a bit too far. This is a fair and honorable business, aren''t you trying to cheat me? There was a flurry of discussion outside the arena. Many people did not understand what was going on, so there were naturally more busybodies explaining, causing them to not know the truth. It was nothing more than hearsay. At this time, the news of Sun Feng and his battle had already spread throughout the entire city. At least two to three thousand people had come over to watch the battle. The main reason was that the Hua Qing Pool''s reputation was well-known enough, and adding on the several tens of thousands of Spiritual Stone involved, it could be considered quite a large amount of money in the Changyu City. C167 Now that you have the time to regret it, apologize to me in front of everyone here. I won''t take those Spiritual Stone s either, so let''s just forget about this matter. Sun Feng was the first to speak, although he had already determined that Chen Fan was not someone who would easily give in, he still had those words. Just to let the bystanders hear it, they didn''t want to provoke the Hua Qing Pool again, and the result would be terrible. Maybe you''ll apologize to me in the end, Chen Fan curled his lips, who knew how many times he had experienced such battles, and was already used to it. Again, I did not hide my cultivation. The genuine Second Transformation of the Foundation Establishment was a breakthrough that you Hua Qing Pool had just made. Hmph, justice is in the heart of men. We''ll see how you get slapped in the face later. The aura that Yang Cheng had accumulated for a long time, had already begun to stir. Don''t even mention bullying you, I, the Hua Qing Pool, have always emphasized fairness in the business. Sun Feng cupped his hands and bowed to the surrounding people, not just because of the feeling of existence for the business under his name, but also because of this, he finally opened his mouth. Yang Cheng will fight a match first, and then, if you are still able to persevere, I will personally make a move, until you are completely suppressed. This is the punishment for you as a Hua Qing Pool. In fact, no matter if it was Sun Feng or Yang Cheng, neither of them had a good reputation in Changyu City. However, before this, they were publicly recognized as popinjays within the Changyu City. They were idle all day long, relying on the power of their family behind them to run rampant and no one dared to make an enemy out of them. One could tell it from the low voices outside the arena. At most, one could only see Chen Fan''s unfamiliar face, and barely stand in the same city as Sun Feng, in order to stand by his side. This was truly rare, the great Young Master Changyu City in the past, actually also had this kind of punishing and eliminating time, it shouldn''t be a trap set up, right? Everyone said that a prodigal son could turn back gold but he couldn''t see anything in such a short period of time. Who knew that Sun Feng would suddenly return to his original appearance. Compared to what Yang Cheng had said, Sun Feng had indeed changed a lot among them, and was already beginning to give himself a positive impression. Chen Fan naturally did not know of these things, and could not be bothered to listen to the whispers, he did not even have the guts to speak loudly, he was afraid of Sun Feng and the rest. As the two sides faced off for a long time, the atmosphere was tense to the extreme. The smell of gunpowder could be vaguely smelled in the air, and when the battle was about to break out, it was suddenly broken by another elderly voice. Two Little Fellow Taoist s, please wait. This little bastard will be decided by this old man himself. As the sound of his voice faded, the crowd that had been crowded a moment ago parted and an old man dressed in a grey robe slowly walked over. The words he said earlier, were obviously aimed at Chen Fan. The two of you must be referring to Sun Feng and Yang Cheng, not separating them. And who are you? Sun Feng asked coldly, his vigilance raising by a lot. He seriously suspected that this gray-robed old man was Chen Fan''s accomplice, or perhaps the mastermind behind his actions. Using his strong attitude and the name of attacking him, he was actually able to protect Chen Fan. This old man is the protector of Liu Family, my name is Liu Jing, and I am here on the orders of the Patriarch to chase this little bastard. As he spoke, this old fellow didn''t forget to glare at Chen Fan. His eyes were sinister and filled with killing intent. Liu Family... Which Liu Family? Even within the Changyu City, there were several families with the surname Liu, but this old man in gray robe was clearly a stranger. Since this old man has introduced himself, then he must be the most powerful one. There won''t be another within a thousand miles. Liu Jing had an arrogant expression on his face, and his body unconsciously straightened up a bit. As a Liu Family Protector, he felt that he was still a little superior. You call me a little bastard was enough, in a bit I''ll beat you all up one by one. Chen Fan responded angrily, his mind was also quickly thinking about whether to run away, the appearance of this old fellow had messed up all of his plans. Initially, he had even wanted to take the opportunity to take advantage of Sun Feng and the others, but now he had to quickly determine the strength of the so called Liu Family Protector, he couldn''t delay at all. Little bastard, don''t think that just by changing your appearance, you can escape from me. My Liu Family''s abilities are not something you can imagine. Liu Jing had a vicious look on his face. In the past few days, he had spent a lot of effort to track Chen Fan. Coincidentally, the last piece of information about this brat was displayed less than twenty kilometers away from the Changyu City. Coincidentally, I heard that there were a few young people fighting in the city plaza, so I decided to just come over to take a look, but in the end I really noticed Chen Fan''s Qi, and couldn''t help but be overjoyed. Protector Liu, since I say that this brat has enmity with you, why should I presume to ask? His gaze swept back and forth between Liu Jing and himself a few times, but Sun Feng was still not sure of the relationship between the two, so he asked directly. Even if he could not hear the truth, he had the confidence to analyze the clues, and now he was even more inclined to Liu Xiafan wanting to save Chen Fan. The latter did that kind of action at the Hua Qing Pool s. Just as they arrived at the plaza, the battle had not even started when an old man appeared out of nowhere. He wanted to settle the score with Chen Fan by name, no matter how one looked at it, it was a little strange. The secrets of my Liu Family are not to be underestimated. Liu Jing rejected him. It was really a joke. Even he did not get any accurate information, so why did he start tracking Chen Fan? It was entirely based on his guesses. The only explanation he could come up with was that he had stolen the treasure which the original patriarch had fallen for. For this reason, he would be able to capture the person within a radius of a thousand kilometers even if he had to search everywhere. But this guy committed a crime at the Hua Qing Pool, so I definitely cannot let this go. I want to have a fight with him first, no matter what the punishment is, I have to use it. Sun Feng also knew that he wouldn''t be able to detect anything, but he would definitely defeat Chen Fan today. This was the perfect time for him to establish his might in front of so many people. No. Liu Jing said rather stiffly, he could sense that the cultivation level of the two young men in front of him was not ordinary, if he were to kill Chen Fan, what kind of difference would he have? Furthermore, the scroll was definitely on the latter. If he were to suffer an injury while fighting with Sun Feng, the Heavy Treasure would immediately be exposed. The Great Elder had long emphasized that after finding Chen Fan, he must immediately control him and not give him any chance to escape. Furthermore, he would immediately retrieve the scroll. He absolutely could not allow any information to travel, not even the tiniest bit of information. C168 In all these years, this was the first time he had heard of the Great Clan Elder''s power, it showed how much they valued the scroll, and Liu Jing could not be underestimated. Chen Fan:... He had the intention of interrupting them. It seemed that he was still alive, so why was it that they fought over him? Moreover, it seemed that all of them were very confident that they would be able to kill him. Brat, if we can''t make it, then we''ll just run. There''s no need to stay here and fight to the death. Deer God reminded from the Zifu Space. Even if the two of them were to join hands, Chen Fan still had enough confidence in himself. At most, he would just use a few of his trump cards and counterattack. With an old fellow like Liu Jing here, no matter what, this was still the largest family within a thousand kilometers. Even if the protectors that they nurtured could not be compared with the number one sect, Yuan Sect, they were not far from those of the middle forces. From the strand of aura Liu Jing restrained but purposely released to probe, a stable Core Formation Stage expert could be considered to be at the upper middle level in terms of Liu Family. He had even reached the seventh form ¡ª No matter what, as long as he was in this realm, he was far from someone Chen Fan could match up to. Not so fast, first. The anger in Chen Fan''s heart burned even hotter. Even though there was still a smile on his face, he knew how angry he was the most. Today, Supreme Wu Tian who had once dominated the continent had actually been fought over by a few small fry like them, wanting to take action against him. Since he had already fallen to such a state, he would do everything in his power to resist it. Revealing his current peak cultivation base could be considered a form of proof. It was best if he could inflict serious injuries on them. If Chen Fan fled without fighting, he would look down on him and he would not be able to recover any Supreme Stage in this lifetime. His mental state had already plummeted. Like this, this kid has offended both of us at the same time, so we have a ready-made arena. If you really want to get even with him, then make your move here. The two of us will not interfere. After muttering to himself for a moment, Sun Feng spoke up. The reason for this suggestion was only to guard against any collusion between Chen Fan and himself. Furthermore, Yang Cheng and the others had dealt with Liu Family before, so they did not have a good impression of this family. At this moment, they automatically categorized Chen Fan as one of those families. It was mainly because his previous actions were too arrogant, perfectly fitting the actions of a Liu Family disciple, that caused Sun Feng to have such suspicions. Hmph, then this old man will leave you a breath of air. To Liu Jing, the survival of Chen Fan was not important. What he truly cared about was that scroll. Moreover, if he used his killing move in front of so many people, he could display the power of his Liu Family and kill two birds with one stone. Needless to say more, this Guardian immediately took action, and completely didn''t place Chen Fan in the same position, and didn''t even notify him beforehand. Rumble rumble rumble! A violent wave exploded out. At first glance, they thought it was this old man who had covered the sky with a large amount of water. Even with this huge impact, it simply covered the sky. The surrounding space within a circumference of one hundred zhang was affected as it trembled uncontrollably. It was obvious that it was bearing a great pressure. The reaction on the ground was similar to this as well. Old thing, those elders from the transcendent powers are unable to keep me here, what the hell do you think you are?! Chen Fan, who had never been treated like this before, also felt a bit angry. Thinking back to his Yuan Sect, when he was still fighting, no one else had fought over him like this. To a Zhi Zun, this was already a huge insult. The Three Holy Arts were instantly activated, and the wings behind his back were opened as well. A dense amount of Talisman appeared beside him. At first glance, it looked as if he had just broken through to the next stage. His entire body was wrapped in dazzling spiritual light, showing that the benefits of breaking through to the next stage were truly great. Liu Family''s fame was indeed well-known within a radius of a thousand kilometers. This Protector was even more powerful, and was probably going to be drenched in blood soon. This young man didn''t look weak, he should be able to contend for a while. It was really funny, Liu Family normally condoned many of their clan''s disciples, and this young man did that kind of thing inside the Hua Qing Pool. The surrounding people were discussing, they did not think that Chen Fan would win, at most, his Foundation Building Stage was among the ordinary people, and was barely able to stand out. If one were to compare it with an expert like the Liu Family Protector, it was not worth mentioning. However, it was worth mentioning that many people did not seem to have a good impression of this large clan. At this moment, the several meters around Chen Fan had formed into his own independent domain. Every time he took a step forward, the surrounding heaven and earth would move rhythmically. It was an extremely profound technique, and it shouldn''t have appeared at his level. It was relying entirely on the help of the Three Holy Arts. There was no need for him to have any understanding of the Space Laws. If he had enough ability, then theoretically he could even control this great momentum and use the power of the world to suppress his opponent. You''re so arrogant at such a young age, yet you still dare to speak such arrogant words. It seems like this old man will definitely remove all harm for the people today. Liu Jing coldly replied. It was clear that he thought Chen Fan was just bragging and was spouting nonsense. To him, the Senior Expert s of those transcendent powers were existences that were high above him. They were existences that could not be easily provoked, so how could they possibly have a relationship with Chen Fan? His light footsteps seemed to be moving slowly, but in reality, his movements were incomparably fast. His pair of large hands were like a fan as they dropped down. At the same time, they were also immeasurably powerful. The air along the way started to shatter, it could not withstand such a sudden attack, but Chen Fan did not sit still and wait for death, he did not plan to take the first strike. His feet quickly stomped on the ground, increasing his speed to an unbelievable level. The wings on his back flapped rapidly, barely dodging the attack. Immediately afterwards, he turned around. Before Liu Jing could smile coldly, the illusion from before rushed towards him. They had originally thought that they were just there for fun, but the old fellow had not expected them to be used as a method of attack. Those Talisman s instantly transformed into the sharpest blades. At the same time, a long whip silhouette appeared in front of Chen Fan, directly wrapping around Liu Jing''s hand and attacking him from time to time. A continuous stream of hazy mist also gushed out from his sleeves. This area of the void had suffered a disaster. After being shattered into pieces, the whip''s shadow would easily shake and crack it. In that split second, Liu Jing once again raised his hand, dodging the gigantic palm that was bound up, he turned and waved his arm, releasing a gigantic divine map. It could be vaguely seen that there were all sorts of star patterns engraved on it. Each star was flickering with light, flickering with uncertain light. It seemed as if it was real. Under the obstruction of these resplendent starlight, Chen Fan''s omnipresent attack was blocked. With a burst of crashing sounds, the attack was forcefully pushed back. Ka-cha! * It was unknown where the sound of something shattering came from, but it seemed like there was a day the void had been shattered again, and it was mixed in the sounds of the Spiritual Energy''s collisions. The situation had suddenly changed. The divine diagram, which looked like it could be cut apart easily, had suddenly become harder than steel after coming into contact with Chen Fan''s force. His silhouette flickered back and forth, but was still unable to break through. Sharp blades spread out in all directions as he was intercepted in an indescribable manner. This was true suppression in terms of realm, so it didn''t matter even if one used a cultivation technique or martial arts technique. Chen Fan''s series of attacks just now could be said to be perfect, without any flaws. If it was a battle between cultivators of the same level, he would have the upper hand. Within a few rounds, he would be able to suppress his opponent. However, Liu Jing''s advantage was too obvious. Even if he was forced into a corner, as long as he still had a breath left, he could push the entire wall down and restore it. Brat, you still want to fight with this old man? Everything ends here! Liu Jing laughed sinisterly, then suddenly understood why the Patriarch would put this brat to death. If this kind of young man were to stay in the future, he would definitely be a great enemy to the clan. He was only a little over 20 years old. Even though his cultivation wasn''t that outstanding, his actual fighting strength was enough to shock even him. In the future, he would definitely grow into a supreme expert. As the star diagram continued to shake, many balls of light began to fall from the sky. It suddenly seemed as if they were wrong and thought that the sky had fallen. They were densely packed like raindrops, but each of them was shockingly big. Each of them was at least as big as a washbasin. Sitting on the ground was a deep pit. Such a spectacular scene was enough to fill the onlookers to their heart''s content. Normally, they wouldn''t be able to witness the attacks of a Jindan Stage expert, not to mention that they didn''t hold back at all. In actuality, Liu Jing had extended the star map to its limits, covering an area of one hundred meters, so as to crush Chen Fan into meat paste. Seeing that, he activated the Seal s in his hands, transforming into a volcano, using the Three Saint Force to condense the magma, and only the destructive energy released by the energy was comparable to the magma. The mountain was shaped like a cone, and a crimson pillar of fire covered the entire area. Although it was only as thick as an adult''s waist, the high temperature it emitted had melted all of the fallen balls of light. As expected, the power of the Three Saints did not disappoint Chen Fan. This was the most difficult technique he had comprehended since his revival. When Liu Jing, who was standing opposite of him saw this scene, his aged body quickly moved, and very decisively made a choice. Using the star map to resist once again, his hands directly grabbed onto the divine diagram. Don''t look at how his arms had lost their luster. His skin was dried up and the amount of strength he was emitting was not small. After a series of violent tremors, the space around him started to show signs of warping. C169 Chen Fan was even more determined to not be outdone, he simply exploded the whip image, bringing along a wave of explosive energy that even contained the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, this time the sky was completely boiling. BOOM! BOOM! "Boom! The dull sounds came wave after wave, causing one''s eardrums to hurt. All the Formation Pattern in the plaza had long since lit up and formed a circle of light, erasing all the terrifying waves. The people outside the stage could only see two figures moving quickly, but they could not even tell which one was Chen Fan. The spiritual lights would fluctuate from time to time, let alone locking onto them with their hands. No matter how fast their eyes turned, they were unable to keep up with their speed, and the battle prowess they displayed was even more astonishing. Chen Fan who had released his True Fire was floating in the air. With a stern face, he was readjusting his body to not reach the Sovereign Realm yet. The reason he chose to battle with Liu Jing was because he noticed the abnormality. It was because he had been running nonstop during this period, and even his dao heart had been shaken. After the Spiritual Energy''s attacks failed, he took out the Dao Burning Furnace. Although it did not have much strength to advance, it was definitely first class when used for defense. In the clouds above, there were the Light Shield s that had emerged from the formation doors of the plaza. Also, beside him, there was also the defense of the Furnace Body s, so even if he faced Liu Jing head on, he would not need to worry about being injured. With a flap of the wings behind him, Seven Fields transformed into even more Lingyu, converging into balls of light that pressed down towards Liu Jing. Not only was it the effect of the Furnace Body, but those realms were like a shadow that followed close behind him, as well as having to comply with the movements of his wings. Liu Jing, who was on the other side, had long since been prepared. He had not reached the stage of Congealing Field yet, but the strength of the Spiritual Consciousness s were incomparable. As a result, it expanded into a golden long spear, and automatically locked onto Chen Fan''s skull without even using both hands. This kind of battle between Spiritual Consciousness was the most dangerous. It could also be seen from this that Liu Jing''s robust battle experience wasn''t because he was shocked by the fact that Chen Fan could transform into a domain while at the Foundation Building Stage. On the contrary, he was the one who reacted quickly. Using the Spiritual Consciousness as an alternative route, he believed that he could firmly secure the upper hand. After all, right now, almost every Cultivator''s weak points were all in the Spiritual Consciousness''s aspect. He was also the same. If he were to extrapolate in this direction, he would definitely cause Chen Fan to be crushed even more. However, his calculations seemed to be wrong. The Lingyu that Chen Fan had assigned not only heated up the surrounding space rapidly, it had also corroded the Spiritual Consciousness. Chen Fan had already used similar methods on the Yuan Sect Protector, so every single cultivation technique he cultivates must have some sort of special strangeness within them. The result was that the golden spear was melted by an invisible force before it could even get close to Nie Tian. Those who were spectating the battle sighed deeply, and Liu Jing felt that his face was even more unprotected. The attacks of the Spiritual Consciousness that he had always placed great importance on was actually unable to do anything to Chen Fan. Fortunately, the light shield was no longer disappointed. The battle between the two could be said to be filled with killing intent. In the eyes of most of the spectators, who only had Foundation Building Stage, it was definitely worthy of being called a classic. It was just that until now, they were still evenly matched. Chen Fan and Liu Jing had launched attacks together, but were being dissolved by various methods, and it was extremely lively. Little bastard, you are forcing this old man to kill you and also sending yourself to a dead end! The originally great situation had actually been endured until now by Chen Fan, and there was even the trend of a draw. This caused Liu Jing to be both alarmed and angry, and he could not help but yell harshly. He did not know why fear had appeared in his heart, but it had been replaced by even more violent rage, even if no one else had noticed it. However, towards a junior who had lost his composure like this, Liu Jing also felt that he had lost face. He should kill that brat right now, and after a year or two, he would have no chance of doing so. You''re quite old, you have to keep your word. You even sent me to the Underworld just now, but you''ve already overturned your own words. You shouldn''t have such a poor memory. Chen Fan didn''t care in the slightest. He didn''t know how many times he had listened to these kinds of words, but no one had ever succeeded, if not he would have already died at the hands of the Yuan Sect Elder. With the protection from the Furnace Body above his head, he had even pushed the Buddha Arts, which brought about a speed that exceeded his limits in a short amount of time, closing in on Liu Jing. He wanted to compete with this guy in physical strength, but the latter clearly realized that things were not going well and immediately moved the star map to his side. This was the life force treasure that he had personally refined for dozens of years. Just now, it was only a small test, but now, it was fully activated, and more and more Spiritual Consciousness were thrown into it. As if a gigantic beast that had been hibernating for a long time was about to revive, the pressure it emitted was terrifying, as it surrounded Chen Fan like a vast ocean. The small boat was about to capsize. Heavens, what is this thing? Why does it feel like there is a huge rock in my chest even from so far away? Is Golden Core Stage cultivators not that powerful? The source of the energy was on his star map. It was so scary that he could actually borrow the power of the heaven and earth. In the distance, even with the protection of the arc shaped Light Shield, the surrounding onlookers'' faces were still continuously turning pale, and they subconsciously retreated a lot. Chen Fan''s domain had already been completely destroyed, and was replaced with a world within a star map. What made Chen Fan even more excited was that he felt that binding power also existed in his body, his entire body seemed to be shackled like an invisible chain. Before this, he had always thought that no external forces would invade, but now it seemed that he overestimated the Dao Burning Furnace, and it was also possible that Liu Jing had found a loophole. No matter what, the cage created by the star map had indeed trapped him inside. It was so bright that he could still see the situation of the outside world clearly. However, it could not break through. It did not stop either the naked eye or the Spiritual Consciousness, but the original body seemed to have been frozen, and could not move an inch. A sinister smile appeared on Liu Jing''s face, it was impossible for Liao Dingdang to escape again. It was as if he had already seen the scene of him handing over the scroll and then kneeling down and begging for forgiveness. He could not help but feel at ease. From the Patriarch''s evasive words, he could deduce the general situation. That thing definitely had an unimaginable use, and it might even be beneficial to the family''s destiny. With such a great contribution, he might even gain the qualifications to compete for the position of an elder in the future. Liu Jing had already calculated this step, that old fellow in Jiangning would always go far. Little bastard, obediently take out the scroll, this old man might give you a quick death. BOOM! BOOM! "Boom! He threw out dozens of punches without holding back at all. Every palm print was incomparably sharp, but they were still unable to shake the star map. He only saw a white mark appear on the wall before him, but it soon returned to how it was before. However, it was only due to the circulation of the light. If he really wanted to break through, then he would have to deal enormous amounts of damage to these stars at the same time. However, with Chen Fan''s current strength, he was still incapable of doing so. The situation became more and more critical. Seeing that the area of effect of the stone wall was shrinking rapidly, he could only use the Furnace Body s to barely contend against it. However, this was definitely not an option. In the end, he would have difficulty escaping and losing, and even Chen Fan did not expect that he would fall into such a dangerous situation one day because of his fleshly body. Sigh, this is all I can do. Looks like I have to escape. Chen Fan sighed, this was not an ordinary test of fighting strength, if he continued, he would lose his life. Just like the old saying, a wise man knows his place. He immediately made a decision in his heart. In the future, there would be a grand path leading to becoming a supreme being. He could not just let it end like this. Let me give you a hand as well. This old fellow is really unsightly today. I must let him keep his life! Sensing that the chest area within Chen Fan''s body had been severely depleted, Deer God also jumped out along with him. Of course, he did not truly reveal himself. Just then, a ray of white light shot out from between his eyebrows. It was extremely sudden, and even Chen Fan was shocked, from the distance, it looked like his skull had split open. He was initially hiding in the void, but very quickly, he dashed towards the star map without blocking anything. With Liu Jing''s eyesight, he had obviously seen that white light, but he did not mind as he did not think that just this one stroke would change anything. The large scale attack from before did not even shake the star map, and he had absolute confidence in the Heavy Treasure that he had personally refined. The reporter had been maintaining the state of being as unmoving as a mountain. The flickering of the seals earlier on, had quickly become inertia, as long as he had a quarter of an hour, he would be able to completely melt Chen Fan into a pool of blood. However, his expression quickly changed. That white light was extremely fast and violent, the key point was that it had broken through all of his defenses and the flow of his Spiritual Energy. It had to be known that after the chaotic battle between Chen Fan and the others, the entire space in the plaza had become a scene of destruction. Furthermore, with such a complicated situation, even if it was an ordinary Golden Core Stage expert, it would be difficult to penetrate through. However, the white light that was shot out from between Chen Fan''s brows, like a valiant warrior unafraid of death, bravely advanced, directly piercing the back of that piece of star, making contact with the actual body of the Divine Diagram. Ka-cha! * It was the same familiar shattering sound, but when it landed in Liu Jing''s ears, he immediately recognized the difference. It was very different from those spatial cracks. At a glance, cracks had actually appeared on the incomparably hard star map! Soon after, the blobs of light dimmed down, and the world began to rapidly decline. C170 Bang! Originally, Chen Fan couldn''t do anything about it. However, after a punch, an indescribably comfortable feeling spread throughout his body, and the feeling of being bound was not pleasant at all. Damn, this kid must have other concealed weapons! Liu Jing''s heart skipped a beat. He definitely had the deepest understanding of the treasures that he had refined himself, and would definitely not allow it to be broken by a Foundation Establishment cultivator. He quickly turned his body, wanting to prevent the star diagram from further splitting apart. After the white light attached itself to his body, it was like a maggot attached to bone, still penetrating inside. Liu Jing had placed all his hope and cultivation on top of the star map. If something went wrong, the outcome would be unimaginable. It was too late to stop Chen Fan now. After such a long and intense battle, he did not have many Spiritual Energy left in his body. It even bit the tip of its tongue and let out a string of Blood Essence, which were sparkling red as it flew across the sky to the surface of the star map, quickly covering the entire area in this color. The pure energy from the Golden Core Mirror wrapped around Zhang Xingchen from the outside, attempting to stabilize him. It was also when one was communicating with the interior of the Divine Diagram, that one would be able to sense the imprint that Liu Jing had left behind, which was equivalent to the heart of the Heavy Treasure. He quickly realized with incomparable sorrow that even the Spiritual Consciousness he had personally probed had been cut off. The crimson color was also fading away at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye, leaving only white light. The latter was like a Heavenly Thunder, extremely overbearing and wreaking havoc everywhere. It could not tolerate even the slightest bit of resistance, and was completely destroyed upon contact. This kind of scene was similar to an iceberg meeting a volcano. Both sides were incompatible, and they were the nemesis of the other. However, one side''s attack was quite fierce. From the first few cracks to the spiderweb, the entire star map had already been fragmented and was on the verge of collapse. How could this be ¡­ Liu Jing was already dumbstruck. He stared blankly at the white light getting brighter and brighter, but his own Blood Essence s were unable to do anything to it. In other words, he had completely lost control of the star chart. The scariest part was that he did not know when it had happened, as if the source of everything was that white light. Speaking of which, Liu Jing was truly wronged. Even with Chen Fan''s Zifu Space, the Deer God was still in a trance. Hurry and retreat, the Spell Formation in the plaza doesn''t seem to be able to hold on! It was only then that they realized that the Light Shield deep within the clouds also showed signs of cracking. It definitely could not withstand such a large scale attack. Suddenly, a startled expression appeared on their faces. Many people retreated to the back, enjoying the show. However, nothing could compare to this life. No one wanted to be affected by it for some reason. As the saying goes, a fire at the gates of a city can affect a fish in a pond. This principle was very easy to understand, and one could see death with the naked eye in front of them. Furthermore, judging from the intensity of the clash between Liu Jing and the others, the only outcome for ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators would be death. In other words, most of the people present were within this range. Sun Feng and Yang Cheng looked at each other and also retreated a great distance away. It was only now that they realized just how strong Chen Fan was. He was actually able to compete with the Jindan Stage expert, and with his age, the shame in their hearts grew. If he were to exchange himself for Chen Fan''s current state, he might even be more arrogant than Chen Fan. Since when am I so amazing that I can suppress a Jindan Stage expert with a casual wave of my finger? He did not have much confidence in his own white light, at most he could create a buffer of time for Chen Fan to escape. What was that thing just now? Chen Fan asked. At first, he thought Liu Jing had purposely set him up and pretended to look like that, but he wouldn''t have to pay such a huge price to even give up the star map. However, just now, almost everyone could see that he was at an absolute disadvantage. He himself had already made preparations to use the Pagoda Art to escape. Other than the Heavenly Energy, I want to release the power of the Ancient Saint. Deer God rolled his eyes at him. His question was like a knife stabbing into his heart, everyone was a man who had fallen to the ends of the earth, who didn''t want to recover their strength as soon as possible? These words caught Chen Fan''s attention. Seeing that the other party was about to collapse and was not in a hurry to give chase, he calmed down and muttered to himself. When he was refining this treasure, he must have borrowed from the Heavenly Energy. Chen Fan also came back to his senses at this moment, and through the Deer God, he came to this conclusion. Only this explanation could make sense. In order to raise the combat power of the treasure, Liu Jing had used the Heavenly Energy to give him an unrivalled power. Just the appearance of this star map in front of the Deer God was a bit of a joke. They had almost met the Old Ancestor of the same rank ¡ª ¡ª He was someone who had truly split himself from the Heavenly Dao. As for Liu Jing, he might have copied him from some technique, but he was at most just a shadow. Bang! Just as Chen Fan was pondering, Liu Jing, who would have dreamt that he would meet the true Heavenly Dao, was blown away by his star map. The pain that Chen Fan had suffered before, in addition to the hard work he had put into refining this treasure, were all materials that were rarely seen in the world. Not to mention that he had even instilled the Heavenly Energy in it, the power produced by the explosion was not inferior to the self-destruction of a peak Jindan Stage expert. However, he was still the closest, and could not avoid it even if he wanted to. Chen Fan simply used the Dao Burning Furnace to cast Divine Light, and innately placed himself in an invincible position. No matter how fierce the waves were in the outside world, they were all isolated by the Furnace Body. Not even a strand of his hair was touched. The dignified Protector of the Residence didn''t have such treatment. He was in a miserable state as all the boundless energy poured onto his body. Like a kite with a broken string, it flew past gracefully. Being attacked by such a majestic force, his body had long been out of control. Finished? No way, what did I see? Just like that, it floated for a while! It was said that the battle between experts wouldn''t last long, and the results would soon come to an end. However, this was just too straightforward. The thousands of people who were spectating, all revealed extremely astonished expressions. Previously, they had thought that Liu Jing would definitely win, but in the next moment, he underwent such a huge change.
