Chapter 374: Master of the Fairy City
“Brother Ning, I need to return to the sect to handle some matters.”
“I know what you’re going to say. Once I go back, I’ll start trying to establish the teleportation formation.”
After Xu Fan finished speaking, he retracted his focus from the puppet.
At the Hidden Spirit Sect, in the underground space, Xu Fan looked at the disabled teleportation formations connecting to the demon race and Nine Phoenix Island, feeling somewhat helpless.
“Things are fine on Nine Phoenix Island; they can fully protect themselves as long as Merit and Fortune continues.”
“The two teleportation formations for the demon race are troublesome; after so much effort, it’s all gone down the drain,” Xu Fan said, his expression one of despair.
“We’ll need to conserve ammunition going forward.”
“And those spirit ores unique to the demon race need to be used sparingly,” Xu Fan added.
“Master, there are clones in the demon realm. Once contact is completely severed, the autonomous program will activate, allowing them to develop independently. The only challenge is how to send those resources over.”
“On Nine Phoenix Island, after losing contact, according to your backup plan, the clones there can gain full authority until they reconnect.”
Xu Fan felt a bit better as he listened to Grape’s report.
“Let’s leave it like this for now. The fairy cities across the entire central continent are all cut off.”
As he spoke, a small spatial formation appeared at his fingertips as he tried to break through space for teleportation.
As soon as his fingertip penetrated just a little into the space, it was pushed back.
“The space in this realm is sealed but can still allow teleportation; it’s just hundreds of times more difficult than before,” Xu Fan said as he felt the force that rebounded from his fingertip.
“With this intensity, even a Great Ascension Master can only teleport a very short distance, and you won’t be able to activate a teleportation formation without tens of thousands of top-grade spirit stones.”
Xu Fan closed his eyes and began to simulate the future situation in the cultivation world.
An hour later, Xu Fan slowly opened his eyes, excitement evident as he said, “The demon realm is sealed too, which means we won’t have to rely on the demon race for unexpected rescues in the future.”
“With chaos in the two realms, commands not reaching their destination, cities cut off, and many heroes rising,” Xu Fan muttered.
“How interesting,” Xu Fan chuckled, noticing that this situation seemed very favorable for him.
At that moment, Xu Fan suddenly felt a large wave of Merit and Fortune flowing into him.
An image of a fortune treasure canopy appeared above Xu Fan’s head.
“Not bad, it’s finally starting to take shape,” Xu Fan remarked as he felt the canopy of fortune above him.
“Water,” Xu Fan said.
A ball of water appeared in front of Xu Fan.
“Cloud,”
A ball of cloud emerged.
“Rain,”
The cloud began to drizzle softly.
“Earth,”
A small clump of soil, resembling a miniature continent, appeared, and as the light rain continued, it formed a tiny lake on top.
“Fish”
At this moment, the fortune treasure canopy behind Xu Fan began to slowly rotate, and a wisp of Merit and Fortune flew out from it.
“Stop, come back,” Xu Fan quickly said. Even though it was just a small amount of Merit and Fortune, it still took a month to gather.
“Looks like this is the limit,” Xu Fan said with a chuckle. Back at Que Tian Gate, he had tried to create a divine power similar to incantation techniques, but he always felt like the spell needed some kind of medium.
It wasn’t until he gained Merit and Fortune that he realized what he had been missing.
But back then, he had so little Merit and Fortune that he didn’t dare to try it himself.
“Not bad. Once the fortune treasure canopy is fully formed, it’ll be as easy as just speaking,” Xu Fan said with a smile.
At that moment, Xu Fan glanced toward Nine Phoenix Island.
“No wonder she’s a great empress. As soon as she got the news, she immediately established a dynasty.”
“With the fortune of this dynasty, I should get half the benefits.”
“This deal is definitely worth it,” Xu Fan said happily.
The entire central continent and its connection to the demon realm quickly became aware of the changes, and chaos erupted.
Some powerful clans of the beast race joined forces to form the Demon Court.
Meanwhile, strong fairy cities quickly allied with sects to share resources and interests.
Xu Fan used his mind to control the Refining Void Puppet and found Ning Dao.
“The teleportation formation is out of the question, but I can restore the signal of the communication artifact in Lin Sen Fairy City. However, it will only work within the city,” Xu Fan explained.
“I understand. I just met with the Great Ascension Master who guards the passage between the two realms,” Ning Dao said.
“And then?” Xu Fan asked.
“He said I’ll be the lord of Lin Sen Fairy City from now on, as long as I lead the cultivators to protect mortals against the beast race. He promised his support,” Ning Dao said, his eyes showing more concern for the future than ambition.
“Hail to the lord of the fairy city.”
“From now on, the Hidden Spirit Sect will fully support Brother Ning,” Xu Fan said with a smile.
“You’re teasing me again. You know my level, so I want you to take the role of fairy city lord,” Ning Dao replied.
Seeing the worry in Ning Dao’s eyes, Xu Fan felt like the position of fairy city lord was a hot potato.
“How about this: the fairy city will be called Hidden Spirit Fairy City, and you’ll be the town lord,” Ning Dao said sincerely, his expression genuine.
“No thanks. I’m too lazy to manage my own sect, let alone a fairy city,” Xu Fan laughed.
“You can take on the role of fairy city lord with confidence. I’ll have Grape assist you.”
“Alright then, I’ll count on Grape’s help,” Ning Dao said after a moment of thought.
Just then, Grape’s voice echoed in Ning Dao’s ear.
“The fairy city management system is loading.”
“I came to talk to you about something,” Xu Fan said, waving his hand to project a map of Lin Sen Fairy City, marking the locations of spirit ore resources.
“Our Lin Sen Fairy City is a bit barren. There are only some basic spirit ore resources here, so not many sects have settled.”
“Luckily, we managed to keep the Hidden Spirit Sect here,” Ning Dao said apologetically.
“That’s not what I meant. Relying solely on the spirit ore and spiritual herbs around Lin Sen Fairy City won’t lead to much development in the future.”
“We need to find a way to get high-level resources. Otherwise, it’ll be hard to craft precious artifacts with just these basic spirit ores,” Xu Fan explained.
“How do we get high-level resources, then? Attack the beast race?” Ning Dao asked.
“That’s one way. There’s a hidden river at the bottom of the Ten Thousand-Mile Giant Lake that connects to the Endless Sea. We could use a Sea Ship to navigate the Endless Sea.”
“My sect also has a damaged Star Ship, but we don’t have the right spirit ores to repair it.”
“So I wanted to see if your Elder Council has the spirit ores needed to fix the Star Ship,” Xu Fan said.
Xu Fan felt that the teleportation formation had been sealed, and the entire central continent seemed to have shifted to a new kind of gameplay.
A jade plate floated in front of Xu Fan.
“This is the inventory of Lin Sen Fairy City’s treasury. Feel free to pick what you need.”
As Xu Fan looked at the jade plate, he could tell the treasury was extraordinary.
Once his consciousness entered the jade plate, Xu Fan couldn’t help but mutter, “The Elder Council really is loaded.”
