Chapter 1026
by fanqienovelChapter 1026: It’s All True
At this moment, two Great Luo from the Saint Moon Tribe inexplicably led their army to retreat while facing off against the human race.
Coincidentally, Xu Fan also returned to the front lines.
“Master, did everything go well?” Wang Xiangchi asked.
“When your master takes action, there’s nothing that can’t be done. Do you want to come back with me, or stay on the front lines?” Xu Fan replied, looking at Wang Xiangchi.
“I’ll return with you. After this experience, I suddenly feel that my cultivation and fighting strength are truly too weak.”
“If it weren’t for the three Golden Immortal puppets you gave me, I would have helplessly watched Dai’er get slaughtered by that foreign Great Luo if I had rushed to the border,” Wang Xiangchi explained.
“Only out there did you realize your weakness. Train hard when we return; your brothers and sisters have already touched the Golden Immortal Realm, and you’re the only one left behind,” Xu Fan nodded and said.
At that moment, Mu Dai walked over from the distance.
“Husband, can I come back with you?” Mu Dai decided not to cause trouble for her father on the front lines anymore.
“Then let’s all go back together,” Xu Fan replied.
Inside the Hidden Spirit Sect, Xu Fan transferred everything from the Saint Moon Tribe’s treasury to their own treasury.
“After all these years, the sect’s treasury has finally been filled again,” Xu Fan said with satisfaction, looking at the overflowing treasury.
“Master, there are three crystals of Xuanhuang aura in the treasury. May I have one crystal for analysis and evolution?” Grape asked, hinting for approval.
“How much Immortal Jade can one crystal of Xuanhuang aura be exchanged for?” Xu Fan suddenly inquired.
“At the Tianding Merchant Association, one crystal can be exchanged for between seven hundred billion to eight hundred billion Immortal Jades.”
“However, only Xuanhuang aura can be exchanged for Immortal Jade, not the other way around,” Grape answered.
“Take one crystal for your research, and then you and Ti Zi can split the rest,” Xu Fan instructed.
“Thank you, Master,” Grape and Ti Zi’s voices echoed simultaneously.
“I plan to upgrade the entire Hidden Spirit Island soon, aiming to reach postnatal Spiritual Treasure level.”
“I’ll leave the plan for upgrading Hidden Spirit Island to you, Ti Zi.” Xu Fan thought for a moment and said.
He felt that with two spirits in the sect, they should share the opportunities equally.
Otherwise, always letting Grape take the spotlight would become boring over time.
“Really? Master!”
“Ti Zi promises to complete the task!” Ti Zi exclaimed excitedly.
At that moment, Xu Fan finally moved all the treasures of the Saint Moon Tribe from the space of the celestial tool into the sect’s treasury.
Then, Xu Fan’s consciousness returned to his true body, while Avatar Number Three re-entered the underground space.
The first and second avatars, who were crafting artifacts, began to discuss when they saw the return of Number Three.
“The main body has been gone for such a long time; he must have brought back quite a lot. It looks like our difficult days are about to start,” Number Two mentioned.
“This is fate; what can we do? As artifact great masters, forcibly crafting a postnatal Spiritual Treasure would take at least five thousand years with just the two of us,” Number One replied.
“You forgot about Number Three; with him, we can at least reduce the time by a thousand years.”
“It’s only four thousand years; we’ll get through it as we go along.”
As the two avatars were chatting, Xu Fan arrived in the underground space.
"Main body, you must have brought back a lot of good stuff this time," Number Two said with a grin, looking at Xu Fan.
"I raided the treasury of the Saint Moon Tribe," Xu Fan said, raising his hand to reveal a pile of fragments from the Primal Spiritual Treasure Saint Moon Bay in front of him.
"My goodness, these are fragments of a Primal Spiritual Treasure!"
"And they’re fresh!" both avatars exclaimed in shock.
"I used some tricks, but I only managed to get these fragments. I’ll have Grape check if they can be repurposed later; we can’t let fragments of a Primal Spiritual Treasure go to waste," Xu Fan said with a smile.
"Let’s seal them and store them in the treasury. Even if we can refine them again, that will have to wait until we reach the Divine Craftsman level," Number One suggested.
"How about this?" Xu Fan lightly raised his hand, and a strand of Moon Spirit Holy Fire appeared in his palm.
"Holy fire! It seems you weren’t kidding; you really did raid the treasury of the Saint Moon Tribe," Number One said in astonishment.
The value of a strand of holy fire in the Immortal Realm is no less than that of a Postnatal Spiritual Treasure, and some special holy fires are even more valuable.
"The origin holy fire of the Saint Moon Tribe! Use it freely without worrying," Xu Fan said as he gently tossed the holy fire, which merged into Avatar Number Three’s body.
The first and second avatars were becoming more like tools.
After Xu Fan finished his tasks, he returned to the courtyard.
"Finally, I have enough Immortal Jade, and I’ve gathered quite a few Time Treasures."
Based on these gains, Xu Fan decided to reward himself with a thousand years of leisure.
Just as Xu Fan was planning to sunbathe and think about how to relax, his good brother suddenly came to visit.
In the courtyard, an elderly man with white hair brought two jars of fine wine and sat down at the table with a smile.
"Brother, congratulations! I’ve heard all about the situation with the Saint Moon Tribe."
"The planning was deep, the layout was exquisite, and you directly cleared out the sacred artifacts and treasury of the Saint Moon Tribe."
"Truly impressive!"
"To celebrate your successful return, we must have a big feast," the elderly man said happily.
"Are you sure it was me?" Xu Fan didn’t intend to hide anything.
"I can roughly guess, especially since such a huge incident happened with the Saint Moon Tribe; a little deduction leads to you," the elderly man explained.
"Tell me quietly, was the Sage who sacrificed himself from the Saint Moon Tribe actually disguised by you?" the elderly man asked with keen interest.
"If you say so, then it is," Xu Fan replied with a smirk.
"Were the words you tricked the Saint Moon Tribe with and the offering formation real?" the elderly man asked again.
"Of course they’re real! Otherwise, how could I have deceived the Great Luo of the Saint Moon Tribe?" Xu Fan said earnestly. Most of what he said to the Saint Moon Tribe in the early stages was true.
For a race to rise, exceptional qualities are indeed necessary, and that’s no mistake.
The formation for offering up Primal Spiritual Treasures is 99% genuine; only the part about sacrificing the Saint Moon Tribe is false.
"Does that mean the Saint Moon Tribe will truly gain a great advantage in the Immortal Realm?" the elderly man asked.
At this moment, Xu Fan noticed the elderly man’s keen insight and found it strange; he seemed to know too much.
"The Saint Moon Tribe has eyes left by Number Two. He was right there when you explained the doctrine of faith in the Saint Moon Hall," the elderly man chuckled.
"Alright then, I didn’t expect to set up such a grand scheme in front of you and make you laugh," Xu Fan laughed back.
"The advantage in the Immortal Realm sounds mystical, but for a race, it really only has significance in critical moments."
"It’s better for the Saint Moon Tribe to develop in places without top powerful families."
"If they continue to interfere in the balance between the human race and other top powerful families, this Immortal Realm advantage will be useless."
"It’s just like adding a bit of luck with a Primal Spiritual Treasure," Xu Fan explained.
"Of course, deceiving a Great Luo Saint requires caution,"
