Chapter 909: Xu Fan’s Backup Plan

The fleet of immortal ships sailing through the star region was suddenly startled by a message from Grape.

On the largest immortal ship, a slightly plump man at the peak of true immortal cultivation wore a friendly, business-like smile.

“Quick, steer clear! If they spotted us first, they must have some unique capabilities, and their strength is likely greater than ours,” the man said, turning to the cultivator commanding the fleet.

“Commander, are we really going to back off like this?”

“At least let’s find out which merchant alliance or Immortal Sect this fleet belongs to,” the fleet commander said reluctantly.

“Let’s not make a fuss this time. This matter is too important to risk any trouble,” the plump man replied with a calm smile.

“Understood.”

All the immortal ships in the fleet lit up with spirit light and abruptly broke through space, performing a spatial transfer to another location.

Meanwhile, Hidden Spirit Sect was buzzing with joy as Grape quietly resolved the situation.

After the celebration, Grape finally reported the incident to Xu Fan.

“You’ve got some nerve. Weren’t you worried there might be Golden Immortal level beings up there, causing trouble for the sect?” Xu Fan remarked, working on his technique calculations in his courtyard.

“The entire fleet has been scanned. There are no Golden Immortal level beings. The merchant alliance’s insignia on the immortal ships is recorded in my database,” Grape reported professionally.

“The chance of an unexpected outcome is less than 0.01%.”

Xu Fan nodded.

“Next time something like this happens, just report it to me quietly. Don’t worry about my feelings.”

“Still, your approach deserves praise,” Xu Fan said, complimenting Grape.

“Thank you, Master.”

In the Chaotic Star Region, Hidden Spirit Island, massive as a continent, slowly approached its edge.

Its arrival didn’t hold back any of its imposing presence.

Every top-tier force in the Chaotic Star Region sensed Hidden Spirit Island’s arrival.

“Stay calm and don’t provoke them.”

The sheer size of Hidden Spirit Island left all forces silent.

Xu Fan had Ti Zi pilot Hidden Spirit Island, stopping just outside the small world of the human race’s headquarters in the Chaotic Star Region.

Five true immortals of the human race appeared, observing Xu Fan and Hidden Spirit Island.

“Taoist friend, you didn’t need to make such a grand entrance just to gather information. A simple message would’ve sufficed,” the leading true immortal said, surprised but less wary upon realizing it was the human-controlled Hidden Spirit Island.

“Haha, my apologies for the oversight. Please don’t take offense,” Xu Fan said, glancing at the overwhelmingly imposing Hidden Spirit Island with a smile.

“The Nine Phoenix Dynasty is located in the northernmost part of the Chaotic Star Region.”

“As for the little spider you mentioned, it’s likely in the easternmost area, outside human influence. Though, the Nine Phoenix Dynasty seems to be thriving.”

Soon, Xu Fan received information about Feng Chang Ning and the Earth Crystal Spider.

“If you plan to go, it’s best to take a detour. Some forces there are quite hostile toward the human race,” the leading Golden Immortal kindly advised.

“Understood, thank you for the reminder, taoist friend.”

Xu Fan nodded and returned to Hidden Spirit Island.

“Ti Zi, head straight toward those two coordinates.”

“There should be true immortals intercepting us along the way; just bombard them directly,” Xu Fan instructed.

“Yes, Master.”

Thinking about the chance to fire cannons, Ti Zi’s voice filled with excitement.

Unfortunately, things did not go as planned; Hidden Spirit Island charged through the star region but did not encounter any obstacles, easily reaching the northernmost area.

“Which force is in front? This is the territory of the Nine Phoenix Dynasty.”

A Star Ship bearing the Nine Phoenix Dynasty’s flag appeared before Hidden Spirit Island.

“Let’s pay a visit to an old friend and send a message to your leader, saying that the Hidden Spirit Sect has come to visit.” Xu Fan’s voice echoed in the star region.

“Please wait while I report to the leader.”

“It seems the Nine Phoenix Dynasty has been developing well in the Chaotic Star Region over these years; they have really taken shape,” Xu Fan said with a smile, withdrawing his gaze.

“Feng Chang Ning is naturally suited to grow in such a complex environment. Back in the Feiyu Realm, it was not right for the Nine Phoenix Dynasty with the presence of the Master and Elder Council,” Li Xingci remarked beside Xu Fan.

Xu Fan nodded.

At that moment, a Star Ship broke through the void, and standing at the bow was Feng Chang Ning, flanked by the National Master and Shi Zhan.

Seeing these three old friends, Xu Fan smiled.

In the Chaotic Star Region, within the small world of the Nine Phoenix Dynasty,

Xu Fan arrived in the capital with his disciples and elders.

“I wouldn’t be surprised if within ten thousand years, the entire Chaotic Star Region falls under the control of Friend Feng Chang Ning,” Xu Fan praised as he walked along.

“It’s all thanks to the Grand Elder’s help and the efforts of the National Master and everyone below; otherwise, we wouldn’t have achieved today’s situation,” Feng Chang Ning replied humbly.

Now, the Nine Phoenix Dynasty was flourishing, and the aura of royal fortune around Feng Chang Ning was growing stronger.

In a palace, Feng Chang Ning hosted a banquet for Xu Fan and the others; the dishes were all specialties of the Chaotic Star Region, bringing a unique flavor to the meal.

“I didn’t expect the Grand Elder to really ascend with the entire sect. To create such a celestial tool as Hidden Spirit Island in the middle thousand world truly shocks me,” the National Master raised his cup to toast with Xu Fan, his face barely hiding his admiration.

He was fully convinced now, with no intention to compete with Xu Fan.

“Your level is not bad either; creating Hidden Spirit Island just required a bit more effort,” Xu Fan said with a smile, feeling somewhat pleased to receive praise from a colleague.

“You’re not bad yourself; in this small world, I sense two supreme auras.”

“They must be the puppets you newly catalyzed, right?” Xu Fan asked curiously, as he could also refine puppets of supreme fighting strength, but found it too troublesome and impractical, so he never got around to it.

“Haha, by chance, I found a few special spirit ores for celestial tools to create them,” the National Master humbly responded, though in truth, these two puppets were meant to deal with the Elder Council.

As soon as he learned of Xu Fan leaving the Feiyu Realm, he could decide whether or not to return there at his discretion.

However, upon arriving in the Chaotic Star Region, he discovered the resources here were exceptionally rich and extremely suitable for the Nine Phoenix Dynasty’s development, so he regarded the two supreme fighting strength puppets as his trump card.

Xu Fan observed the National Master’s expression with a slight smile; he recognized those two puppets of supreme fighting strength as part of the batch he had left behind earlier.

That batch of puppets had already sown seeds within all the puppets of the Nine Phoenix Dynasty, so whenever he had a thought, he could control the lives and deaths of all the puppets.

One of the backups he had left behind was that these puppets would release a beautiful display of fireworks if they entered the Feiyu Realm with malicious intent.

“Friend Feng Chang Ning, now that your Nine Phoenix Dynasty has supreme fighting strength puppets, have you considered striking back at the Feiyu Realm?” Xu Fan boldly asked.

“This place is suitable for the development of the Nine Phoenix Dynasty; everything in the Feiyu Realm is no longer related to my dynasty.”

“Even if there’s contact in the future, it will only be for mutual assistance.”
