Chapter 658: Ten Thousand Star Ship

Lin Sen Fairy City had a special teleportation formation, transformed from the original one.

“This teleportation formation is quite something,” Xu Fan remarked, looking at the formation beneath his feet.

“This kind of space-breaking formation is rare. Apart from a few super large fairy cities, only Lin Sen Fairy City has one,” Ning Dao said with a smile.

“Let’s teleport. I’m eager to meet Elder Number One,” Xu Fan said, smiling.

With a flash of spiritual light, Xu Fan and avatar number one appeared in Upper Zun Fairy City.

“This should be my second time here,” Xu Fan said as he stepped out of the teleportation formation.

“Welcome, Grandmaster, to Upper Zun Fairy City,” a clear voice greeted him.

A handsome young man appeared before Xu Fan.

Xu Fan gave the young man a quick glance and immediately pegged him as an important male supporting character.

The young man’s techniques and methods were impressive, and there was an aura of a sealed celestial tool around him.

From the young man’s demeanor, Xu Fan deduced that his background was anything but ordinary.

“Master has been waiting for you at the headquarters for some time now,” the young man said with a smile.

Xu Fan nodded, then turned to First Clone.

“You go see your elder brother; I’ll meet with the elder.”

First Clone nodded and then departed.

“How do I get to the Elder Council headquarters?” Xu Fan asked with a smile.

“Please follow me, Grandmaster.”

Xu Fan followed the young man onto a beast cart, which swiftly ascended above the clouds.

Not far from the beast cart, a sky gate came into view.

“As expected of the Elder Council—truly extravagant,” Xu Fan commented, eyeing the four beasts pulling the cart, each exuding the aura of the Great Ascension stage.

“These are rare void beasts my master discovered. You’re welcome to take them with you if you’d like,” the young man driving the cart said, glancing back with a smile.

“No need, I’m just curious,” Xu Fan replied with a smile, already pondering whether he should acquire a similarly impressive vehicle for himself.

The beast cart passed through the sky gate and arrived at the Elder Council headquarters.

Upon entering, Xu Fan was immediately struck by the opulence.

“Do the people here cultivate using five elemental origins spiritual energy?” Xu Fan asked, sensing the dense spiritual energy in the air.

“There are dedicated cultivation rooms for that. The spiritual energy outside is rarely used,” the young man explained.

Soon, Xu Fan and the young man arrived in front of a modest thatched cottage. A composed-looking man stood waiting outside.

"Master, the grandmaster has arrived," the young man said respectfully.

"You may leave," the man replied.

After the young man left, the man politely addressed Xu Fan, "If the grandmaster does not mind, please join me inside for a conversation."

"Of course."

Inside the Thatched Cottage,

the two sat down, and Xu Fan looked at the man and said, "I have yet to learn your name, elder."

"You may call me Ming Kong," the man said with a smile.

A tea set appeared on the tea table, and the man personally brewed tea for Xu Fan.

"I should have personally invited the grandmaster, but due to pressing matters, I could not leave, so I had to ask you to come here," the man explained politely.

"It is an honor to be invited by Elder Number One of the Elder Council," Xu Fan replied with a smile.

"May I ask why the elder has summoned me? Is it about crafting celestial tools or something else?" Xu Fan inquired.

Ming Kong lightly waved his hand, and the space around them instantly changed.

They moved from the Thatched Cottage to above the clouds.

A spiritual boat over a thousand zhang long appeared nearby.

"If I am not mistaken, this is the Ten Thousand Star Ship of the Elder Council," Xu Fan said.

Seeing the Ten Thousand Star Ship, he understood the purpose of his visit.

"Indeed, it is the Ten Thousand Star Ship. You must have noticed," Ming Kong confirmed.

"The Ten Thousand Star Ship was ambushed by the beast race while heading to the outer realms and had to sustain damage to return."

"This time, I would like to ask the grandmaster if the Ten Thousand Star Ship can be repaired," Ming Kong said politely.

Xu Fan approached the Ten Thousand Star Ship and gently placed his hand on it.

After a long moment, Xu Fan opened his eyes and asked, "Is the Ten Thousand Star Ship very important to the Elder Council?"

"Very important. With the Ten Thousand Star Ship, we can travel to the outer realms and trade with other middle thousand worlds, even the great thousand worlds," the man explained.

"This Ten Thousand Star Ship is not from this realm; does the Elder Council have any spare spirit ore for repairs?" Xu Fan asked again.

At that moment, the man’s expression provided Xu Fan with the answer.

"This Ten Thousand Star Ship was seized by Upper Zun from other middle thousand worlds, so we do not have any spirit ore for repairs!" the man said, a bit troubled.

Both the man and Xu Fan felt distressed.

"According to our cultivation world’s perspective, this Ten Thousand Star Ship is a medium-grade celestial tool, and general artifact great masters simply do not possess the ability to repair it," Xu Fan remarked.

"The Grand Elder of the Heavenly Refining Sect also said the same, which is why I invited the grandmaster here," Ming Kong said with a smile.

This statement instantly lifted Xu Fan’s rather neutral mood.

He felt that Ming Kong was quite perceptive.

"The Grand Elder of the Heavenly Refining Sect cannot do anything about it either?" Xu Fan asked.

"He said that if there were spare spirit ore for repairs, it could be tried, but without it, he has no confidence," Ming Kong replied.

"Give me three days," Xu Fan thought for a moment and said.

With this, Xu Fan could not admit that he was just an ordinary artifact great master.

"I will wait for the Grand Elder’s good news."

Thus, Xu Fan placed one hand on the Ten Thousand Star Ship, using his thoughts to devise a method to repair it.

Three days later, Ming Kong appeared before Xu Fan.

In front of Xu Fan, a radiant light materialized, adorned with many celestial scripts that Ming Kong could not understand.

"I need samples of all the spirit ore you have in this realm," Xu Fan stated.

"They have already been brought to the grandmaster," Ming Kong replied.

A space ring appeared in Ming Kong’s hand.

Xu Fan took it, and his thoughts immersed within.

Before long, a jade slip appeared in Xu Fan’s hand.

"I need the spirit ore listed on it, and also call my clone from Upper Zun Fairy City," Xu Fan instructed.

"No problem," Ming Kong said as he took the jade slip.

Shortly after, First Clone appeared in the space where Xu Fan was.

"So this is the task; it shouldn’t be easy," First Clone said with a smile.

"Then what do you guess I called you here to do?" Xu Fan chuckled.

"I knew you were not being so kind," Number One rolled his eyes at Xu Fan, casually placing one hand on the Ten Thousand Star Ship.

"Don’t tell me I also have to come up with a repair plan," Number One said after inspecting the ship.

"I am no longer the person I used to be; I won’t let you handle everything," Xu Fan transmitted the repair information for the Ten Thousand Star Ship directly into Number One’s mind.

"Have you decided on a repair fee?"

"Not yet; you saw when you came in, the Elder Council is quite wealthy; they will not let me down," Xu Fan said with a grin.

"True, high-end deals often do not discuss price~."
