Chapter 305: The Arrival of the Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys

“The formal education of the Hidden Spirit Sect,” Jian Wujie pondered, a question mark forming in his mind.

“It’s similar to the Celestial Sword Academy, with teachers giving lectures and offering advanced courses.”

“I wanted you to check it out before challenging yourself, but you left too quickly, and I didn’t have time to tell you,” Wang Xiangchi said, his tone tinged with a hint of amusement.

“I’ve already secured permission from Grape; you can head straight to the main peak’s classroom.”

“Then I’ll go attend the class.”

Jian Wujie started toward the main peak but paused, turning back to Wang Xiangchi. “Master, is there anything else you want to say?”

“Well, don’t just focus on swordsmanship courses; explore other types of advanced classes too,” Wang Xiangchi advised.

“Master, anything else?”

“That’s all~”

A beam of light shot off toward the distant main peak.

“What’s the point of being in such a hurry now?” Wang Xiangchi chuckled.

Meanwhile, in the underground space, Xu Fan was surrounded by countless mysterious scriptures, each radiating a profound, soul-penetrating aura.

The scriptures slowly revolved around him, some disappearing while new ones emerged, seamlessly integrating into the whole.

Xu Fan’s soul was now saturated with these scriptures.

After a long while, Xu Fan finally opened his eyes and let out a sigh.

“Creating soul-related techniques and abilities is no easy task.”

The process had left Xu Fan with a headache; as he put it, it was like overclocking his brain for too long and needing to cool down.

Just then, Xu Fan received a message from Ning Dao.

“Grand Elder, the monkeys are here~”

Seeing Ning Dao’s message, Xu Fan’s eyes lit up with excitement.

On Satellite Island, under Xu Fan’s eager gaze, Ning Dao released over a hundred Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys from the precious artifact palace.

Among them were one at the Core Formation stage, four at the Void Refinement stage, thirty-three at the Nascent Soul stage, and over eighty at the Golden Core stage.

“Grand Elder, capturing these Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys was no small feat. I had to call in quite a few favors from fellow taoist friends,” Ning Dao said, his tone clearly conveying the effort involved.

Xu Fan gazed at the group of Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys as if they were priceless treasures.

“Brother Ning, your Dual Swords Flow is said to reach its full potential when both Spiritual Swords are equally powerful. Leave this to me,” Xu Fan said with a confident smile.

“Grand Elder, are you serious?” Ning Dao exclaimed, his excitement palpable.

“Brother Ning’s concerns are my concerns,” Xu Fan assured him.

“Does the Grand Elder want more monkeys?”

“Bring as many as you can.”

“Understood~~”

Ning Dao handed over the soul treasure used to control the Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys to Xu Fan and then returned to Lin Sen Fairy City, where other matters awaited him.

"Master, should we let them train in that technique?" the pangolin asked, his voice tinged with excitement, feeling that his small life was secure for a while.

"No, that technique is too basic. Let them practice this ‘Myriad Origin Fundamental Technique’," Xu Fan said, handing a jade plate to the pangolin.

At that moment, Xu Fan also transferred a portion of the core from his soul treasure to the pangolin, enhancing his ability to manage the group of Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys.

"Do well, and you’ll be rewarded in the future," Xu Fan said with a smile, reminiscent of a master addressing his overseer.

"I, the pangolin, will serve you unto death," the humanoid pangolin declared, kneeling.

Xu Fan nodded, casting a regretful glance at the two aging Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys before slowly disappearing from the monkeys’ sight.

He still had a conscience; after all, it felt wrong to sacrifice two monkeys just to develop a technique.

Once Xu Fan had left, the pangolin reverted to his true form.

With a menacing grin, the pangolin looked at the group of Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys, wielding a beast king’s giant whip, and announced, "From now on, your master is the Grand Elder of the Hidden Spirit Sect."

"From now on, the Grand Elder’s words are as the beast king’s divine decree. Disobey, and you’ll wish for death."

The pangolin’s words immediately provoked the fury of all the Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys, who glared at him angrily.

At that moment, the two elderly Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys trembled, a chill running through them; they had experienced the pangolin’s methods before.

Once, a Core Formation stage Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkey had scoffed at the pangolin, "What can you do to me?"

The pangolin simply smiled, raised his soul treasure avatar, and channeled beast power.

Instantly, all the Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys felt their souls tearing apart, overwhelmed by endless pain.

"Ah!!!!"

"It hurts!!!! Ah~~"

All the Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys screamed in agony, their bodies shaking as if electrocuted.

"Face the Hidden Spirit Sect and kneel," the pangolin commanded coldly.

"Submit, and you might survive; resist, and I’ll show you what it means to wish for death."

"Please… lift… the… protective barrier."

"We… submit…" the leading Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkey stammered.

"Kneel," the pangolin said lightly, not only maintaining but intensifying the punishment on the Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys.

The two nearby Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys looked on with pity but did not intervene, merely watching with sympathetic eyes.

Finally, all the Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys trembled and kneeled towards the Hidden Spirit Sect before the pangolin lifted the punishment.

"Remember, from now on, the Grand Elder is our only master," the pangolin declared.

On Hidden Spirit Island, Xu Fan watched the pangolin discipline the Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys and thought that perhaps he could take the pangolin to the Thousand Worlds in the future to continue as his monkey training overseer.

At that moment, Xu Fan looked up at the sky and sighed lightly, "The good days won’t last long."

In Xu Fan’s perception, the entire earth began to shift, and the sky was filled with many stars he had never seen before.

With the occasional appearance of twin suns across the sky, Xu Fan knew that it wouldn’t be long before the two realms would completely merge.

Late at night, Wang Yulun sat alone on a chair in the courtyard, gazing at the unfamiliar starry sky.

"What are you thinking about?" Murong Qianer asked as she walked up behind Wang Yulun.

"Wondering if I should apologize to you before I die; I’ve hidden many things from you," the silver-haired Wang Yulun said.

"Are you referring to the time that witch took you?" Murong Qianer responded, understanding; she didn’t blame Wang Yulun since that witch threatened her husband with her life.

Wang Yulun looked at the sky and didn’t respond.

"Or the time we accidentally discovered the secret realm," Murong Qianer continued.

Wang Yulun still didn’t reply.

"The time at the Flower Fairy City?"

"Along the Xiangzhou border?"

Murong Qianer listed all the places she could think of.

"You know quite a bit, but none of that was my intention," Wang Yulun sighed.

"I know, I also heard Big Brother Xu mention it; it’s in your destiny."

"I’m not blaming you; after all, I have only recognized you in this life."

"By the way, besides what I just mentioned, is there anything else you have hidden from me?" Murong Qianer suddenly asked.

"Nothing else; my lady is sharp; nothing can escape you," Wang Yulun laughed, exuding a playful elder’s charm.

"Of course."

Wang Yulun sighed; he had only been speaking his feelings and didn’t really mean to confess since he still had to sleep as a mortal now.
