Chapter 315: Updated Version of the Avatar
Gazing at the affectionate Xu Fan, the woman smiled lightly and said nothing.
When Xu Fan regained his senses, he found himself back in his original body.
“You’ve done well enough. Think more about yourself,” the woman said, her words leaving Xu Fan feeling a pang of sadness—it wasn’t like he had much choice in the matter.
“Big Brother Xu, why are you so good to me?” Wang Yulun asked, his voice filled with emotion as he looked at the now youthful Xu Fan.
“We’re brothers. No need to say so much.”
“If I were in your shoes today, you’d do the same,” Xu Fan said solemnly, placing a hand on Wang Yulun’s shoulder as he tried to sense that strange energy once more.
“Big Brother Xu,” Wang Yulun choked out, his voice trembling.
Finding nothing, Xu Fan slowly withdrew his hand, his mind returning to the present as his spiritual sense swept the area.
“The people outside must be getting impatient.”
With a thought, Xu Fan retracted the scriptures surrounding him.
Immediately, everyone flew toward Wang Yulun’s little hill.
“Master, are you alright?”
“Congratulations on reaching the Nascent Soul stage, Master!”
“Congratulations, Master Ancestor!”
Seeing the concern on everyone’s faces, Xu Fan smiled warmly.
“Sorry to worry you all. It’s just a breakthrough—no need for such a fuss.”
Xu Fan glanced outward and noticed all the sect’s disciples hovering in mid-air, waiting.
“Everyone, you may disperse.”
Xu Fan’s voice echoed throughout the Hidden Spirit Sect.
“Congratulations to the Grand Elder on advancing to the Nascent Soul stage!!”
The voices rang out in unison, rising into the heavens.
All the sect’s disciples floated in the air, kneeling in reverence.
“Awwooo~~”
The Transformation God-level giant turtle in the spiritual liquid lake let out a long roar, and six Dragon Eggs flew out, bobbing among the disciples as if nodding in congratulations for Xu Fan’s advancement to the Nascent Soul stage.
“Good.”
Watching all of this, Xu Fan felt a sudden surge of emotion. The reactions of everyone around him confirmed that his efforts in building this sect had not been in vain.
Once the disciples had dispersed, Xu Fan turned to his few disciples nearby and said, “You all should go about your business. I need to enter seclusion for a while to stabilize my cultivation.”
With that, Xu Fan flew toward his courtyard.
In the cultivation room, Xu Fan focused his mind on the Nascent Soul he had formed.
At this moment, his Nascent Soul resembled an enthusiastic tattoo enthusiast, its body covered in intricate patterns of various phenomena.
“Ha ha, you look a bit like a delinquent,” Xu Fan said with a smile. Although he hadn’t completely consumed a thousand years of lifespan, he had at least advanced to the Nascent Soul stage.
Though he felt a bit disappointed, everything was still within Xu Fan’s expectations.
As the Nascent Soul returned to his body, Xu Fan began to stabilize his cultivation, knowing there were still some things from the shattered world he hadn’t fully absorbed.
Three days later, Xu Fan slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of spiritual energy, saying, “At last, my cultivation has reached a higher level.”
Xu Fan stepped out of the cultivation room and first arrived at the underground space, where the second clone was still diligently refining tool puppet parts.
“Come here, it’s time for an update.”
With a gentle wave of his hand, a virtual image replaced the second clone in refining the tool puppet parts, while the second clone merged back into Xu Fan.
After an hour, the second clone separated from Xu Fan and resumed refining the tool puppet parts.
“Hmm, having a clone without emotions is really convenient; at least there’s a lot less chatter,” Xu Fan remarked.
“Grape, take out the spirit fire that was prepared earlier; it can be used now.”
“Understood.”
A tool puppet pushed a cart over, on which sat a large, disc-like object.
“Although it’s not as powerful as the divine fire from Volcano Fairy Town, it’s still better than the Five Elements Spirit Fire.”
Xu Fan lightly caressed the disc, and it shattered, revealing a strand of Golden Star Spirit Fire that tried to escape the space.
“Golden Core stage can’t control you, but you can’t run away now,” Xu Fan said.
A chain of runes immediately bound the Golden Star Spirit Fire, bringing it back to Xu Fan’s palm.
“Just stay here obediently.”
Xu Fan tossed the Golden Star Spirit Fire to the second clone.
“All done with the second update; now it’s time for the first.”
A light curtain unfolded in front of Xu Fan, and the first clone appeared within it.
“What’s up, main body?” the first clone said lightly, his eyes detached, existing in a state of No Self.
“I’ve advanced to the Nascent Soul stage; come back for an update,” Xu Fan stated.
“No need; when you advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, I also advanced. The energy feedback from the tool puppet remains within me, and you need to come and take some of it,” the first clone replied.
“Okay, I understand.” Xu Fan nodded and ended the call.
“Seems like something has changed with the first clone; I should visit there sometime,” Xu Fan pondered, stroking his chin.
At the peak of the Hidden Spirit Sect, Xu Fan reclined on a lounge chair, leisurely observing a few of his disciples in front of him.
“Xu Gang, this is yours.” Xu Fan handed over a jade butterfly.
This was a divine ability he created after gaining new insights into the laws of all things upon advancing to the Nascent Soul stage.
“Xu Yuexian, this is for you. Let’s just forget about everything this time; don’t come back until you’ve collected those things I asked for,” Xu Fan said lightly.
Xu Yuexian took the jade butterfly and said, feeling wronged, “I understand, Master.”
“Wang Xiangchi, this is yours. Although your progress is slow, as long as you focus on swordsmanship, there will come a day when you will have a breakthrough,” Xu Fan said, handing over a small sword-shaped jade plate.
“………” Wang Xiangchi thought, does Master think I haven’t had a breakthrough?
“As for Zhou Kailing…” Xu Fan looked at Zhou Kailing, who knelt obediently on the ground.
“Practice hard; this ‘Heavenly Rules of All Things’ took a lot of effort for me to create for you.”
Not much—just three days of effort.
“All right, now those who need to leave the sect can go, and those who need to cultivate should cultivate,” Xu Fan waved his hand.
The others left, leaving only Wang Xiangchi behind.
Noticing the hesitant expression on Wang Xiangchi’s face, Xu Fan said, “There was a small accident with your fourth junior brother, so it delayed some time. No need to worry.”
“As long as Xingci is fine,” Wang Xiangchi replied, though there was still concern in his eyes.
Once Wang Xiangchi had left, a Heavenly Mechanism Compass formation appeared around Xu Fan, starting to turn slowly.
Xu Fan observed the intertwined threads of causal power, and a flash of thought crossed his mind.
“The future is just the future; things that need to change still must change.”
“Looks like fate can be unreliable at times; I still need to lend you a hand.”
A Yin-Yang Copper Coin appeared in Xu Fan’s hand, more exquisite than before, with even more mysterious patterns.
With a gentle flick of his thumb, the coin spun and flew in the air.
A large bowl appeared, and the coin gently landed in it, continuing to spin.
‘Snap’
Xu Fan lightly snapped his fingers, and the fortune he contained immediately reduced by half.
The coin stopped spinning, with the Yang side facing up.
Then, a strand of Li Xingci’s causal power entwined around Xu Fan’s hand. Xu Fan bowed lightly to the sky, sending an invisible beam of light soaring upward.
At that moment, in the Void Realm, Li Xingci involuntarily looked up at the sky, where it seemed like a light was drawing him in.
“Husband, what’s wrong?” Su Rantian, who was pregnant, appeared beside Li Xingci and said gently.
