Chapter 337: Dragon Crystal
For some reason, there were an unusually high number of injured disciples at Hidden Spirit Sect that day. Even with the protection of Transformation Stage heavy armor puppets, accidents still happened, leading to injuries.
One particularly unfortunate disciple had his leg bitten off by a deep-sea giant beast.
At Hidden Spirit Sect’s Alchemy Peak, dozens of disciples were lying in the treatment room.
Xu Fan stood in front of the legless disciple, wondering if this was Jian Wujie’s fault. Why did he have to choose such a ridiculous outcome instead of following the script?
“Grand Elder, I’m ashamed. Even with the protection of the sect’s heavy armor puppets, I was still ambushed by a Void Refinement stage beast,” the disciple with the missing leg said regretfully.
“It’s fine. That deep-sea giant beast has been caught and turned into soup. Drink a few bowls later and just be more careful in the future,” Xu Fan said, pulling out a jade bottle containing a master-level pill, the Everlife Pill, which could restore any missing limbs.
At the Golden Core Stage, limb regeneration wasn’t possible yet, so Xu Fan had taken the time to refine the Everlife Pill.
“Take this. It’ll be a while before you reach the Nascent Soul stage, and I can’t have you training with a missing leg.”
“Thank you, Grand Elder,” the legless disciple said gratefully, well aware of the pill’s value from his time training on the central continent.
Just then, a girl in a pink long dress with a delicate face rushed in, bringing a fragrant breeze with her.
“Duan Lang, are you okay?” Her eyes filled with tears as she looked at the legless disciple, her gaze fixed only on him.
“This is a disciple Duan Yi brought back from the Hero’s Tomb at the Joyful Union Sacred Land,” Grape quickly transmitted a message to Xu Fan.
Watching the two lovebirds, Xu Fan suddenly regretted bringing out the Everlife Pill. He thought he should have let them enjoy their time in their own little courtyard instead.
At that moment, over a dozen beautiful girls entered the medical room.
“Sigh, this place isn’t for me anymore,” Xu Fan said, stepping out of the Spiritual Herb Peak.
“Actually, I have a wife too,” Xu Fan murmured, looking up at the sky.
Meanwhile, a massive Star Ship descended onto the Endless Sea, a hundred thousand miles away from Hidden Spirit Island.
Master Qianling stood on the deck of the Star Ship, gazing out at the sea with a hint of nostalgia. “It’s been so long since I last visited the Endless Sea; I really miss it.”
Compared to the Extreme Void Domain, which required highly advanced cannonry skills, he preferred the Endless Sea, where little technical skill was needed.
“The Grand Elder of Hidden Spirit Sect actually moved the entire sect to the Endless Sea. What a feat!” Master Qianling remarked, glancing toward Hidden Spirit Island.
“Elder, Hidden Spirit Island is about 30% the size of our sect. Should we consider acquiring this whole-sect teleportation method?” an elder following Master Qianling suggested.
“Hmm, that’s one of the reasons I came to see the Grand Elder,” Master Qianling replied. With the War between Realms approaching, various major forces were starting to prepare their escape plans.
“I hope the things I brought this time will please the Grand Elder,” Master Qianling said with a smile, his eyes scanning the distant sea, hoping to encounter a careless beast tide.
Meanwhile, at Hidden Spirit Island, Xu Fan, thinking about his wife, suddenly received news of Master Qianling’s visit.
“Is it about upgrading puppets again?” Xu Fan muttered. This guy rarely brought good news.
“Let’s go. Call Xu Gang and Yuexian to greet him.”
Before long, a massive Star Ship docked outside Hidden Spirit Island.
“Welcome, Master Qianling, to our humble abode,” Xu Fan said with a smile, accompanied by his two disciples.
“Upon hearing the Grand Elder’s glorious achievements, I couldn’t help but come closer to admire your esteemed presence,” Master Qianling joked.
It must be said that with the approach of the War between Realms, the status of artifact masters and alchemists has risen significantly. Now, even an ordinary master craftsman is enough to make a Great Ascension Master lower his stance to please them, let alone a master craftsman like Xu Fan.
In the guest hall at the peak of Hidden Spirit Sect,
“Grand Elder, can that puppet be upgraded, or can you sell me another one?” Master Qianling said apologetically.
I’ve been waiting for this, Xu Fan thought as he took out a jade slip and handed it to Master Qianling.
“That puppet has reached its limit and cannot be strengthened. However, I can make you another one. As long as you provide the required spirit ore and treasures, I can craft one for you,” Xu Fan explained.
Master Qianling glanced at the jade slip, his brow furrowing slightly. He felt a pang of regret at the thought of using the needed spirit ore and treasures.
“I wonder if this celestial treasure will be helpful to the Grand Elder,” Master Qianling said as he took out a jade box and opened it on the table.
“Master, I need it!!” Grape’s slightly excited voice echoed in Xu Fan’s mind.
“Dragon Crystal. I didn’t expect you to possess such a celestial treasure, Elder,” Xu Fan exclaimed.
“This item is quite useful for me, but I’d like to know what you wish to obtain from me, Elder,” Xu Fan inquired.
“Ha-ha, I enjoy discussing matters with straightforward people like the Grand Elder.”
“Sell me a puppet that can steer a Star Ship.”
“Certainly,” Xu Fan nodded, waiting for further details.
“I hope you can assist us in transferring our sect using the method you employed to move your own sect,” Master Qianling said.
“Transferring a sect requires a lot of spirit ore, precious artifacts, and tool puppet parts. Qianling Sect is three times larger than Hidden Spirit Island, and we’ll need 64 tool puppet parts alone for the transfer,” Xu Fan explained.
“As long as the Grand Elder is willing to craft them for us, Qianling Sect will cover all the spirit ore costs,” Master Qianling replied generously. The foundation of a sect that has existed for tens of thousands of years is something anyone would admire.
“It will take at least fifty years and up to one hundred years’ time to complete,” Xu Fan said.
“That’s acceptable.”
After reaching an agreement on cooperation, Xu Fan curiously asked, “Upper Zun Fairy City of the Elder Council also has similar capabilities. Why doesn’t the Elder go to them?”
“I knew you would ask. Qianling Sect isn’t significant enough to attract an artifact great master.”
“So knowing the Grand Elder possesses such power, isn’t that why I came to seek your help?” Master Qianling said with a grin, looking as if he had just struck a big deal.
“Am I asking too little, then?” Xu Fan looked at the Dragon Crystal on the table.
“Ha-ha, we at Qianling Sect value honesty. In the future, just let us know what you need, Grand Elder,” Master Qianling laughed.
“I’ll remember that, Elder,” Xu Fan replied.
“Yes, feel free to reach out whenever there’s something you need.”
“The puppet that steers the Star Ship will be delivered to Qianling Sect in one year, after which we will start setting up the grand formation for transferring your sect,” Xu Fan concluded.
“Alright.”
Outside the gate of Hidden Spirit Sect, Xu Fan and the others watched the departing Star Ship, marveling at Master Qianling’s swift actions. Such a significant matter was settled in under an hour; they hadn’t even finished a few cups of tea.
Xu Fan gazed at the jade box containing the Dragon Crystal and sighed, “Is this the heavens compensating me?”
