Chapter 661: The Celestial City

Upon hearing Xu Yuexian’s words, Xu Fan let out a cold chuckle.

“The bigger the place, the more tricks there are.”

“You take care of that important figure, and he has at least tens of thousands of ways to be reborn within you.”

As Xu Fan spoke, he pulled out a little notebook and flipped to the second page.

He glanced at it briefly before closing it again.

“Anyone or any power that makes it into my little notebook will have to face consequences in the future,” Xu Fan declared.

“Master treats me best. What I hate most about that power is that they tricked me into eating the Transformation God Pill,” Xu Yuexian said with a dark expression.

Because of that one pill, she had become the weakest among her peers in terms of strength and potential.

"That was because of your indecision. I emphasized that to you before,” Xu Fan said, shaking his head.

Just then, a light flashed deep within the Extreme Void Domain.

A Star-Swallowing Snake, thousands of feet long, emerged from a space crack.

It then opened another space crack and slipped through, resembling a giant whale leaping from the water.

“Is that the little snake’s mom or dad?”

Xu Fan observed the scene.

“The giant beast appeared too quickly; I didn’t see it clearly,” Xu Gang said, shaking his head.

“It looks like it’s in a hurry,” Xu Fan remarked.

At that moment, a space crack opened in front of the Giant Ship.

The Giant Ship couldn’t stop and crashed right in.

“That’s right; we have the scent of its child on us, so we should take a look,” Xu Fan nodded and said, feeling that this was normal.

“Master, aren’t you worried that the giant beast will attack us?” Wang Xiangchi asked.

Just then, everyone noticed that the Giant Ship had already been entangled by the Star-Swallowing Snake.

The immense head of the snake looked down at the Giant Ship, as if demanding an explanation.

“Don’t worry, I’ve got this.”

Xu Fan said, stepping out of the Giant Ship and looking up at this enormous creature.

He was estimating the strength of the giant snake in his mind.

“Roar~” Xu Fan roared at the giant beast.

“Ssss~”

“Roar~”

“Ssss~”

Xu Fan took out a spirit pearl and handed it to the giant snake with a single horn.

A massive space crack opened, and the Giant Ship and Xu Fan were directly sent out.

“I told you it would be fine,” Xu Fan said with a smile to the others.

“Master, what did your roars mean back there?” Xu Yuexian asked curiously.

“Basically, it means your child is safe. I rescued him from the Beast Race, and he’s now free in the Extreme Void Domain.”

“Unfortunately, the Star-Swallowing Snake only cares about its son’s life and death and shows no interest in anything else, not even when its child gets bullied.”

“I wanted to ask for a few scales from it, but I underestimated the situation,” Xu Fan said.

“Master, if this Star-Swallowing Snake attacks us, can we escape?” Xu Gang asked.

“Escaping isn’t guaranteed, but as long as you stay by my side, you don’t need to worry about such things,” Xu Fan said with a smile.

The master and disciples cheerfully resumed their journey to Xiangzhou.

A month and a half later, they arrived at the Celestial City, a newly established fairy city of the Hidden Spirit Sect.

At that moment, a group of first-generation disciples of the Hidden Spirit Sect was waiting in front of the city gate.

“Will the Grand Elder and the others arrive today?” Qian Bing asked excitedly to a nearby disciple.

“Of course! The news has already come back; there’s no doubt about it.”

“But if the Grand Elder is coming, something important must have happened with the Beast Race,” a first-generation disciple said.

“Some Invincible Beast Kings have come from the Beast Race, and the Grand Elder must be here for that,” Qian Bing said, a thoughtful look in his eyes.

“I wonder what treasures he brought this morning to deal with those Invincible Beast Kings,” the first-generation disciple said eagerly.

“We’ll find out soon.”

Just then, a black shadow appeared in the sky.

Before long, the Giant Ship descended outside the Celestial City.

“Welcome, Grand Elder,” the Hidden Spirit Sect Disciples said as they bowed.

Outside the city gate, many wandering cultivators gathered to watch.

They had heard that a significant figure from the mysterious Hidden Spirit Sect was arriving, which explained why so many Hidden Spirit Sect Disciples were at the gate to greet them.

When they heard these disciples refer to Xu Fan as the Grand Elder, they couldn’t help but bow to him as well.

Xiangzhou was the first large state to be invaded by the Beast Race. Before the arrival of the Hidden Spirit Sect, many cultivators with low cultivation couldn’t teleport to other large states and had to live like mice, hiding here and there.

After the Hidden Spirit Sect arrived, they could finally lead a peaceful life.

“You’ve worked hard guarding this place, so rise,” Xu Fan said, nodding his head.

Then he looked at the wandering cultivators bowing to him outside the city gate.

“Everyone, please rise. With the Hidden Spirit Sect here, you can live worry-free in the fairy city.”

“Thank you, Grand Elder,” the wandering cultivators outside the city gate said respectfully.

Then Qian Bing led Xu Fan to tour the fairy city.

This fairy city was designed based on Xu Fan’s aesthetic preferences by a figure named Grape.

It combined science fiction and fantasy elements.

“Not bad; the style of this fairy city is quite pleasant,” Xu Fan said with a smile, a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.

“Have the Invincible Beast Kings come here to cause trouble recently?” Xu Fan asked.

“In response to the Grand Elder, they indeed have shown intent to attack.”

“But they were ambushed by sword formation puppets along the way, and one was heavily injured with the power of wind and thunder, scaring them off.”

“Now even the little demons near the Celestial City have rarely appeared,” Qian Bing replied.

It was Qian Bing who led a group of puppets to establish this Celestial City, and he named it too.

“Good tactics; what I learned back at the sect wasn’t in vain,” Xu Fan chuckled.

“If it weren’t for the fear of those Invincible Beast Kings launching a surprise attack on the fairy city, I would have dealt with them one by one already,” Qian Bing said regretfully.

“You do have quite a bit of courage. Just being able to defend against Invincible Beast Kings is impressive,” Xu Fan laughed.

Looking at the daring Qian Bing, Xu Fan showed a satisfied expression.

“I came this time for those Invincible Beast Kings.”

“Your task from now on is to keep the Celestial City safe with those Great Ascension stage puppets.”

“I’ll handle the rest,” Xu Fan said with a smile.

“Grand Elder, may I know what business those Invincible Beast Kings have?” Qian Bing asked eagerly.

“It’s nothing significant; they discovered a good place, and we’re going to slay demons and seize treasures,” Xu Fan said with a hint of a smile.

Killing and seizing treasures is wrong, but in the case of the Beast Race, it is a righteous act.

“Really? Grand Elder, can you take me to see it?”

“You should wait for us to return and look at the Light Shadow Diagram. If a fight breaks out, I won’t be able to look out for you.”

“Remember, if those Invincible Beast Kings catch a glimpse of you, you won’t be yourself anymore,” Xu Fan said with a smile.
