Chapter 381: Extreme Void Domain
"What’s going on up ahead?" Xu Fan asked, puzzled. If something major was happening, Grape should have alerted him.
"On the other side, a powerful figure from the beast race has emerged. They’ve come close to breaching the Steel Wall several times," Xu Gang said, clearly frustrated by the opponent’s unpredictable moves.
"Grape, is this true?" Xu Fan asked.
"The Steel Wall’s safety level remains stable."
"As for the attempts to breach it, I’m just gathering data on their tactics," Grape explained.
"What’s the situation? Give me the details," Xu Fan said, now intrigued.
"The newly emerged Wood Rat Clan has a strategist, their military advisor. Lately, they’ve been gaining the upper hand with some clever maneuvers."
"I’m currently analyzing the behavior patterns of this Wood Rat strategist. Everything is under control," Grape added.
Xu Fan glanced back at Xu Gang.
"Is your Great Destruction technique not cutting it anymore?" Xu Fan teased.
"I’m not strong enough to turn the tide of a major battle yet. The Wood Rat Clan is just too sneaky, and it’s driving me crazy," Xu Gang said, clearly annoyed.
Xu Fan had already pieced together the situation through Grape.
"Just keep holding the line. If it’s not a big deal, don’t bother me with it."
"If you’re not great at commanding battles, then don’t. I’ll send someone to assist you," Xu Fan said with a grin.
Xu Gang looked like he’d been wronged and was hoping his master would step in to set things right.
"Fine, but make sure you send someone with real command skills," Xu Gang insisted.
"Got it," Xu Fan replied, still smiling.
"Head back to the front if there’s nothing else," Xu Fan said, waving him off. He had sent Wang Xiangchi, Li Xingci, and Xu Gang to the front lines to gain experience in command.
The outer edge of the Steel Wall stretched over two hundred thousand miles, with each of them responsible for thirty thousand miles of defense. The rest was covered by the Elder Council and Lin Sen Fairy City.
"Grape, find a war command prodigy in the game and send them over," Xu Fan mused.
After a stroll around the sect, Xu Fan returned to his courtyard and directed his puppet to fly to Lin Sen Fairy City, where he needed to meet a newly arrived respected elder.
Over the past two years, two nearby fairy cities had been destroyed, and three new natural passages between the two realms had opened, all within territories controlled by powerful demon clans.
The surviving Great Ascension Masters from the shattered cities had fled to Lin Sen Fairy City with the remaining cultivators and mortals, establishing a new city within the Steel Wall called Demon Slayer Fairy City, now guarded by two Great Ascension Masters.
Xu Fan was on his way to meet these two Great Ascension Masters, who were currently guests in Lin Sen Fairy City.
As Xu Fan’s puppet arrived in Lin Sen Fairy City, the two respected elders greeted him warmly.
"Respected Elder Ling Xiu and Respected Elder Hu Xiao," Ning Dao introduced, his tone carrying a hint of pride that Xu Fan found curious.
"Greetings to the two esteemed elders," Xu Fan said, bowing respectfully. It was their first meeting, and he wanted to show proper respect.
"Haha. Master Xu, you’re too kind. It’s an honor to meet you," Respected Elder Ling Xiu said with a laugh.
"Indeed, no need for formalities. We’ve come to discuss a matter with you," Respected Elder Hu Xiao added.
"No need for politeness. Just speak plainly—we’re allies in this region, after all," Xu Fan replied courteously.
According to Grape’s report, four powerful demon clans were now stationed near the Steel Wall. However, due to mutual distrust, none had launched a full-scale attack, wary of being outmaneuvered by the others.
However, according to Grape’s report, this situation won’t last long. Once the Four Clans form an alliance, it could lead to a large-scale breach of the Steel Wall.
"I heard earlier that the Master was refining an important magical artifact, and I didn’t dare to disturb you, so I could only ask my taoist friend Ning Dao to relay my message."
Several damaged magical artifacts floated in the air.
"These artifacts were all broken during battles with the beast race’s respected elders. I hope the Master can take a look and see if they can be repaired."
"Without these artifacts, my fighting strength and that of Respected Elder Hu Xiao will decrease by at least thirty percent," Respected Elder Ling Xiu stated.
Xu Fan glanced at the damaged artifacts and said, "As long as there is spirit ore that matches these artifacts, they can be repaired."
"Thank you, Master."
The two respected elders quickly took out their storage bags, which contained spirit ore for repairing the artifacts.
A puppet appeared beside Xu Fan’s controlled puppet.
Xu Fan handed the damaged artifacts and storage bags to that puppet.
"It will take about two months. You two respected elders will have to wait," Xu Fan said, as repairing artifacts was now a simple task that he did not need to handle himself.
"Then we will trouble the Master," the two respected elders said politely, as they could hardly endure dealing with the beast race barehanded, especially when faced with those beast kings.
"There’s no need to be so polite," Xu Fan replied with a smile.
After chatting for a while, the two respected elders hurried towards the Steel Wall. Because of the beast race’s presence, they had to guard against any dangers, whether in their true forms or their avatars.
"Grand Elder, it’s been a long time," Ning Dao said with a smile.
"It hasn’t been that long, just two years," Xu Fan said as they shared casual conversation.
"These two respected elders fled here because their fairy city was destroyed."
"If they weren’t bringing the cultivators and many mortals with them, they would probably have fought to the death against the beast race, perishing together."
"Indeed, they are also pitiful," Ning Dao sighed.
"By the way, I haven’t thanked you for sending Respected Elder Spirit Cut to rescue them," Ning Dao added.
"That was a small matter. At that time, Elder Spirit Cut was also guarding the Steel Wall. There was no reason not to help," Xu Fan replied.
He knew about that incident; Elder Spirit Cut had been overly excited. When facing those beast race respected elders, he had summoned the giant beast race warship and unleashed everything, directly killing one of the beast race elders and seizing the true spirit of a beast king.
This was also the reason those beast race respected elders did not dare to cross the Steel Wall easily now.
"Brother Ning, there’s something I need to tell you," Xu Fan said.
"I plan to take Elder Spirit Cut to the Extreme Void Domain to find some spirit ore and see if we can encounter other human race Star Ships, just to check on the situation outside," Xu Fan explained.
"What will we do if we run into beast race Star Ships?" Ning Dao asked nervously.
"Fight, of course! If we come across their giant beast race warships, we’ll just destroy them directly and gather some spoils of war. How wonderful would that be!" Xu Fan laughed.
‘At that time, I will trouble the three respected elders of your Elder Council to guard the Steel Wall,’ Xu Fan mentioned.
"That’s for sure; it is our Elder Council’s duty," Ning Dao assured.
"Then I’ll help the two respected elders repair the artifacts first before heading to the Extreme Void Domain," Xu Fan decided.
"That sounds even better," Ning Dao replied.
After finishing their conversation, Xu Fan retracted his consciousness and began preparing for the journey to the Extreme Void Domain.
For a moment, the entire Hidden Spirit Island became busy.
