Chapter 1043
by fanqienovelChapter 1043: Exclusive Three Hundred Paths
"Xueling, the three hundred paths you cultivate are mainly focused on the path of time, supported by the five elements, space, and yin and yang."
"Luofan, your three hundred paths revolve around the devouring path, integrating all methods and things within yourself, and deriving your own three hundred paths from the devouring path."
"Your cultivation path has no predecessors to follow; you must forge your own way."
Xu Fan took extra care to explain to Xiao Luofan the divine abilities derived from the devouring three hundred paths.
Sitting next to Xiao Luofan, Zhang Xueling felt a moment of clarity.
This wasn’t just a lesson on the three hundred paths for any disciple; it was a private session for the new Grand Sister of the Hidden Moon Sect, with him merely playing the role of a supporting character.
Even as a supporting character, the few words of advice from the Grand Elder were immensely beneficial to him.
The teachings on the three hundred paths continued for a full month.
"Grand Elder, your teachings and guidance are something Luofan will never forget," Xiao Luofan said respectfully, performing a deep bow.
"It’s not that big of a deal; I just see potential in you and wanted to offer some guidance," Xu Fan replied with a satisfied look at Xiao Luofan.
During the teaching process, he realized that the version of the three hundred paths Xiao Luofan was cultivating was the least suitable for her.
A slight adjustment now brought about a significant transformation in Xiao Luofan.
In the Source Realm, within the virtual space,
Xiao Luofan battled a hundred nightmare-level virtual enemies of the same stage using the power of the devouring path.
She then passed the assessment to advance from the Void Refinement stage to the Core Formation stage.
She even reached the final level of the Endless Challenge.
The last level of the Endless Challenge featured a Void Refinement stage puppet with Grape’s computing power of a thousand.
Although she ultimately lost to the puppet, Grape still gave her a very high evaluation.
She was rated as the second in fighting strength at the same stage in the history of the Hidden Spirit Sect.
"No wonder you are blessed with great fortune from the Three Thousand Realms; your comprehension, battle power, and talent are remarkable," Xu Fan remarked.
This was just the Void Refinement stage, and she was already showing her potential.
"With rapid growth comes swift challenges," Xu Fan said with a smile.
For someone blessed by the great fortune of the Three Thousand Realms, Xu Fan felt confident letting her venture out.
As for whether she would bring trouble to the sect, he wasn’t concerned.
At this stage, the sect had a Golden Immortal puppet and a Big Brother.
The final trump card was still fishing outside the sect, so for the Hidden Spirit Sect at this time, major forces similar to the Wood Origin Immortal Realm were manageable.
In the underground space, avatar Number One and avatar Number Two were refining the Postnatal Spiritual Treasure Spaceship.
Avatar Number Three, the Golden Winged Roc, was mechanically refining the Golden Immortal puppet.
"Body, the original Number Three is gone just like that; will you treat me and Number One like Number Three in the future?" avatar Number Two asked.
"Stop worrying; haven’t you noticed that the new Number Three hasn’t developed intelligence?"
"Besides, think of how much time and energy it took to train you to this point; it wasn’t easy."
“You’re not combat avatars; sending you to fight enemies is like delivering vegetables,” Xu Fan said to avatar number two.
“This Postnatal Spiritual Treasure level spaceship was supposed to be completed a hundred years ago, but your spirit got injured halfway through, and we were affected too.”
“Even though the Postnatal Spiritual Treasure level spaceship is delayed, the refinement process is going smoothly. In another hundred years, it should be done,” said avatar number one, who was refining the spaceship.
“Keep up the good work. Once it’s finished, I’ll give you a year off with a budget of one hundred million Immortal Jade,” Xu Fan encouraged.
“One hundred million?!” Both avatar number one and avatar number two immediately perked up.
Even the holy fire in the void refining the spaceship burned a little brighter.
After giving avatar number one and avatar number two a morale boost, Xu Fan left.
Grape secretly reported to him that the Number One Body Refinement Academy, led by Xiong Li, had caught the attention of an Immortal Sect.
At the Number One Body Refinement Academy, Xiong Li and Zhuang Ling stood fearlessly before the Golden Immortal.
“Duanjin Immortal Sect, you’re being too overbearing. If you want to compete, do it openly. Using underhanded tactics to ruin my academy’s reputation? Do you think I have no backing?” Xiong Li transformed into a hundred-zhang chaotic golden form, glaring at the Golden Immortal from the Duanjin Immortal Sect like a god or demon.
“I’ve already looked into your sect. It’s just the Hidden Spirit Sect from Golden City.”
“A strong dragon can’t crush a local snake, and besides, you’re not even dragons.”
“Setting up an academy on my turf? Fine when it was small, but now that you’re reaping huge benefits, you think you can keep it all for yourselves? Do you think my Immortal Sect has been building this Giant City for millions of years for nothing?”
A law form hundreds of zhang tall loomed over the Number One Body Refinement Academy, its gaze filled with contempt, looking down on everyone in the academy as if they were ants.
“My Immortal Sect isn’t unreasonable. From now on, you’ll give us sixty percent of your annual profits, and I’ll make sure you stay out of trouble.”
The Golden Immortal’s law form spoke as if delivering a routine announcement.
“Grape, how strong is the Duanjin Immortal Sect?” Xiong Li whispered while facing the Golden Immortal’s law form.
“The Duanjin Immortal Sect has three Golden Immortals, thirty-six million true immortal disciples, and countless miscellaneous disciples.”
“Support is on the way, so feel free to push back,” Grape added.
“Well, they’re Golden Immortals. It wouldn’t be polite to insult them directly,” Xiong Li said.
Just then, a Sword Immortal appeared at the Number One Body Refinement Academy, accompanied by a Golden Immortal-level giant bear.
A sword light shot up, instantly destroying the Golden Immortal’s law form in the sky.
“Duanjin Immortal Sect, insulting my sect’s subordinate academy? I’ll personally visit your sect in three days to demand an explanation.”
The Sword Immortal stood tall, sword in hand, speaking lightly to the sky.
The giant bear beside him roared, its sound waves shattering the clouds for miles around.
“Grape, is this our sect’s Golden Immortal?” Xiong Li asked in surprise.
“The Hidden Spirit Sect’s Slave Division has only these two Golden Immortals,” Grape explained.
“In three days, you’ll go with these two Golden Immortals to the Duanjin Immortal Sect.”
“How much you can get from them depends on your skills. These two Golden Immortals will back you fully,” Grape added.
Hearing this, Xiong Li’s eyes lit up.
“Grape, can you teleport Qian Bing here? He’s the expert when it comes to squeezing things out of people. He’s so desperate for wealth, he’ll demand anything,” Xiong Li said with a grin.
“Sure, I’ll set up a super long-distance teleportation array. It’ll cost one thousand Immortal Jade,” Grape replied.
“Just explain the situation and let Qian Bing cover his own costs,” Xiong Li said.
“Please wait.”
Soon, a teleportation formation appeared before Xiong Li and Zhuang Ling.
Qian Bing stepped out, looking excited.
“They dare tarnish Senior Brother’s academy’s reputation? I won’t let that sect get away without emptying their entire treasury!” Qian Bing declared.
“Don’t worry, Senior Brother. Leave this to me. I’ll handle it perfectly.”
Qian Bing’s expression was like a starving wolf spotting a pile of fresh meat.
