Chapter 1010: A Sword

After leaving Millennium Tree City, Xu Fan and Xu Gang headed towards Cang Lei Tree City.

"Master, the Five Colors Peak is in the direction of Cang Lei Tree City," Xu Gang said nervously, as they were about to face the Great Luo Sage.

"As long as we’re heading in the right direction, it’s fine. Don’t worry; you won’t need to fight," Xu Fan reassured the anxious Xu Gang.

"Master, can our three Golden Immortal puppets really not defeat the Cang Lei Saint?" Xu Gang asked, unwilling to accept the situation.

"These puppets can barely match the fighting strength of a Golden Immortal; defeating the Cang Lei Saint is still beyond them. If we push too hard, we might lose them all," Xu Fan explained.

"Don’t worry, I’ll leave the Cang Lei Saint for you. Wait until you become a Great Luo Sage to seek revenge."

"Master, I want to seek revenge as a Golden Immortal," Xu Gang said with determination in his eyes.

"Do as you wish; I’ll protect you then."

As they moved away from Millennium Tree City, Xu Fan took out a spatial magic cube and began the teleportation process.

At that moment, a Golden Immortal from the Wood Origin tribe in Cang Lei Tree City slowly opened his eyes.

Feeling the struggling Five Colors Peak in his hands, the Wood Origin Golden Immortal smiled slightly.

"Whether it’s the original owner or any other owners of the Five Colors Peak, whoever comes will die!"

The Wood Origin Golden Immortal then took out a communication artifact and sent a message.

"Three Golden Immortals and one Great Luo Sage—there’s no way you can take this Five Colors Peak from me," his eyes flashed with a hint of red.

He knew this top-tier Postnatal Spiritual Treasure carried significant karma when he received it from his master.

But he believed that with his own strength and that of his Great Luo Sage master, they could withstand any karma.

The phantom of the Cang Lei Saint appeared before the Wood Origin Golden Immortal.

"Fei Yue, my real body will soon return to help you settle this karma."

"Don’t be reckless; you are the most outstanding genius of the Wood Origin tribe’s Five Elements path. Do not suffer great losses for minor gains at this time."

"Hide in Cang Lei Tree City and don’t come out," the Cang Lei Saint’s phantom advised.

"Master, I understand," Wood Origin Fei Yue Golden Immortal nodded.

At this moment, three Golden Immortal puppets disguised as the Wood Origin tribe had already infiltrated Cang Lei Tree City.

Xu Fan and Xu Gang each possessed a Golden Immortal puppet.

"When the fight starts, just hand over control of the puppet to Grape; you can observe in the first person," Xu Fan instructed.

"Yes, Master," Xu Gang nodded excitedly.

"Master, I just collected some information from Cang Lei Tree City. Over a thousand years ago, the Cang Lei Saint gifted Fei Yue Golden Immortal a Postnatal Spiritual Treasure, and since then, Fei Yue Golden Immortal has been in a refining state," Grape’s voice suddenly echoed in their ears.

"That makes sense."

"Grape, when the fight breaks out, do not accidentally harm other members of the Wood Origin tribe."

"We still need to use the identity of the Wood Origin tribe to leave," Xu Fan ordered.

"Understood, Master."

The three Golden Immortal puppets disguised as members of the Wood Origin tribe moved up the main vine of the tree city.

“Master, what’s the plan for the fight later?” Xu Gang asked, standing nearby.

“Fighting a Golden Immortal doesn’t require much of a plan.”

“I think Cang Lei Saint hasn’t returned yet; there are only three Golden Immortals in Tree City.”

“Just find Five Colors Peak and start the fight,” Xu Fan said casually.

At that moment, Xu Gang stopped the Controlled Puppet and pointed to the center of the trunk. “I sense that Five Colors Peak is right at the heart of the trunk.”

“Then let’s get ready for battle.”

A unique Spiritual Sword from the Wood Origin tribe appeared in Xu Fan’s hand.

“Fei Yue Golden Immortal, it’s time to settle the debts from the past!”

An angry voice echoed through Cang Lei Holy City, nearly causing the weaker members of the Wood Origin tribe to drop to their knees.

“An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Today, I’ll settle things with Fei Yue Golden Immortal right here in Tree City. Anyone not involved, leave now. I don’t want to harm the innocent.”

With that, Xu Fan swung his sword, and the entire Cang Lei Tree City was split in half from bottom to top.

Fei Yue Golden Immortal, who had been hiding in the small world within Cang Lei Holy City, was now exposed.

She glared at the Golden Immortal puppet disguised as a member of the Wood Origin tribe.

“If you want that Postnatal Spiritual Treasure, just say so. No need for all this sneaking around.”

Behind Fei Yue Golden Immortal, two more Golden Immortals from the Wood Origin tribe appeared.

Just then, a powerful spatial fluctuation rippled through, as if coming from a distant place.

“Now!”

Xu Fan charged at Fei Yue Golden Immortal with his Spiritual Sword, while Xu Gang’s consciousness in the Golden Immortal puppet began forming a spell seal, sealing off the area with divine power.

The puppet controlled by Xu Gang transformed into the Wood Origin tribe’s unique law form.

A giant tree, far larger than the original Cang Lei Tree City, emerged, creating a domain that pressed down on the three Golden Immortals.

In an instant, it became a deadly threat to Fei Yue Golden Immortal.

Time around them began to slow under Xu Gang’s divine power, almost coming to a standstill.

“How dare you! Don’t harm my disciple!”

Cang Lei Saint’s roar came from the space crack.

But it didn’t stop Xu Fan, who commanded the Golden Immortal puppet to deliver a blinding sword strike.

The combined pressure of time and the giant tree formed by the Golden Immortal puppet trapped the Wood Origin Golden Immortals momentarily.

In a flash, a brilliant sword light sliced through their bodies.

With that single strike, the three Golden Immortals of the Wood Origin tribe were destroyed.

Xu Fan quickly controlled the puppet to gather the bodies of the three Wood Origin Golden Immortals.

After confirming that Fei Yue Golden Immortal’s space celestial tool contained Five Colors Peak, he looked up at Cang Lei Saint, who was about to break through space, and said, “I’ve settled the score with your disciple. No need for you to come and greet me personally.”

The three Golden Immortal puppets gathered and teleported directly into the prepared secret realm.

Inside the secret realm, Xu Fan and Xu Gang’s consciousness returned to their bodies.

“Five Colors Peak—use it wisely from now on,” Xu Fan said, tossing the miniature Five Colors Peak to Xu Gang.

“Back then, it felt too powerful to use without drawing attention,” Xu Gang said with a grin.

When he was on the front lines, there had been no need to bring out Five Colors Peak.

“Study it well. Once you reach Golden Immortal, this Postnatal Spiritual Treasure will at least double your fighting strength.”

“Understood, Master,” Xu Gang nodded.

“Grape, did you release the bait?” Xu Fan asked.

“It’s already out. I’ve also located Cang Lei Saint’s companion spirit tree from Fei Yue Golden Immortal’s celestial spirit,” Grape replied.

Xu Fan nodded and turned to Xu Gang. “We can move on to the next part of the plan.”

“After we cut down Cang Lei Saint’s companion spirit tree, we’ll tease him a bit before heading home.”

“Master, next time we fight, can I get a more immersive experience with the Golden Immortal puppet’s spellcasting?” Xu Gang asked, his face full of anticipation.
