Chapter 689: Nuclear Bomb Beast King

“Have you thought of your title? Should it be Five-Spirit Beast King or Mingling Beast King?” Xu Fan asked with a smile.

Usually, the titles among the beast race beast kings are related to their race names.

If there is only one beast king in a race, they even use the race name as their title, just like Jade Light Beast King.

“Please grant me a name, Master,” the Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkey said respectfully.

“Then let’s call you Nuclear Bomb Beast King,” Xu Fan said, looking at the Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkey with some satisfaction.

This Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkey had decent talent and could reach true immortal level without a problem.

“Thank you for the name, Master!”

A jade plate appeared in Xu Fan’s hand.

“This contains the Great Five Elements Divine Technique and the beast version of the Five Elements Technique. Go back and cultivate hard.”

Xu Fan would not be stingy with his future personal avatar.

“At your command, Master.”

After Nuclear Bomb Beast King left, Xu Fan thought for a moment and ordered, “Number Two of Hidden Spirit Island, capture some Five-Spirit Mother Monkeys. Since they are so excellent, we should help them thrive.”

“At your command, Master.”

Once Xu Fan finished speaking, he gazed toward the Extreme Void Domain.

At this moment, Hidden Spirit Island was increasingly affected by that strange wind.

“Grape, have you not successfully deduced a method to detect this strange wind?” Xu Fan asked with some worry.

“Master, please give me a bit more time.”

“I have already tested nearly half of the materials in Hidden Spirit Island, and they all showed no reaction to the strange wind; they were quickly and quietly extinguished,” Grape replied, sounding somewhat helpless.

He felt that after advancing to celestial tool, the completion rate of his tasks for the Master had sharply declined.

It was not like during the Daoist artifact period when he could flawlessly accomplish all his Master’s requests with a 100% completion rate.

Now that he had advanced to celestial tool, that perfect number was rapidly broken.

Grape summarized the reason in his mind, feeling that his Master had somewhat elevated expectations of him.

But a higher tier of logic told him that he must never speak this to his Master.

“Try slowly, don’t rush. If worse comes to worst, I’ll go out and take a look,” Xu Fan said.

He felt that using Nuclear Bomb Beast King to perform the Five Elements Guardian Technique should allow for a closer analysis of the strange wind’s nature.

At this moment, Nuclear Bomb Beast King, who had just returned to the demon division, shivered slightly.

He looked around, his face showing a puzzled expression.

Then he glanced at the jade butterfly in his hand, and excitement surged within him.

“I must complete the task my Master has given me.”

At this moment, what Nuclear Bomb Beast King wished to do most was to fulfill his task well, hoping that in the future, his Master would consider taking in the Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys as subordinate races.

Suddenly, Xu Fan, who was deep in thought, came up with a good idea.

"Putao, control the stone knife and test it outside the grand formation to see if it can withstand that strange wind," Xu Fan said excitedly, as if he had just found the key to solving a tough puzzle.

A stone knife flew out from the treasure vault, heading straight for the edge of the protective grand formation.

The knife passed through the formation, with only its tip sticking out, the rest remained inside.

A strange wind swept over the knife’s tip, causing it to tremble slightly.

"Master, the stone knife hasn’t been destroyed," Putao reported.

"Bring it back. I need to study it; maybe I can find a way to counter that wind," Xu Fan said.

The stone knife returned to Xu Fan’s hand. He began to examine it closely.

After several days of research, he still hadn’t found anything useful.

Frustrated, Xu Fan swung the stone knife with full force.

The knife light, created by the powerful wind pressure, shot out thousands of meters before dissipating.

"Hey!"

"This knife light isn’t right!" Xu Fan exclaimed.

The light had traveled over a thousand meters further than expected.

Given Xu Fan’s precise control, this shouldn’t have happened.

He quickly slashed twice more, and two overlapping knife lights exploded, creating a strange wave.

A teleportation formation appeared under Xu Fan’s feet, transporting him to the core secret realm of the Spirit Gathering Formation.

This area was closest to the protective grand formation and was heavily guarded.

"Putao, open a small gap in the knife light for me," Xu Fan said, his eyes gleaming with curiosity.

"At your command, Master."

His arm, holding the stone knife, became a blur as he slashed towards the Extreme Void Domain outside the protective grand formation.

"Putao, monitor the changes in the knife light," Xu Fan instructed.

"Understood, Master."

The knife light exploded in the Extreme Void Domain, creating a strange power that spread outward.

For the first time, Xu Fan saw traces of the strange wind.

"Quickly analyze the characteristics of this wind," Xu Fan urged.

"Understood, Master."

The knife light continued to explode in the Extreme Void Domain for over an hour before Xu Fan stopped.

"It’s been a while since I moved around. Feels good to stretch," Xu Fan said with a smile.

"Master, I’ve gathered useful data and mapped the strange wind’s trajectory within a certain range," Putao reported.

"We need more data," Xu Fan said.

"Control a Great Ascension stage puppet for an experiment. This place feels off; we should leave soon," Xu Fan ordered.

"Understood, Master."

Soon, a Great Ascension stage puppet appeared next to Xu Fan and took the stone knife.

The entire Hidden Spirit Sect could feel the intense knife intent.

"The wind is strange, and so is the space here."

"Even the magic cube that breaks spatial seals doesn’t work," Xu Fan said.

Thinking of the magic cube reminded Xu Fan of his precious disciple.

"Feiyu, what have you been up to lately?" Xu Fan asked.

"I’ve been practicing the sword formation in the secret realm," Feiyu replied.

"Recently, Han Feiyu has been focused on cultivation and, in his spare time, he practices sword formations with Xiang Yun," Putao added.

"Speaking of sword formations, I should create a more powerful one soon," Xu Fan remarked.

Although his current sword formation was strong, Xu Fan felt it hadn’t reached its full potential.

"I’ll go into seclusion after returning, advance to the Core Formation stage, and optimize my techniques and methods," Xu Fan declared.

Just then, Li Xing Chi appeared in the courtyard.

"Is there something?" Xu Fan asked Li Xingci.

"Master, while cultivating the Cycle of Rebirth, I met a senior who wants to take me as a disciple," Li Xingci said.

"When did this start?"

"About three years ago; this is the second time I’ve met him," Li Xingci responded, projecting a light curtain.

A white-haired elderly man appeared in the light curtain, smiling as if he could see Xu Fan and Li Xingci through it.

The Fortune Treasure Canopy appeared behind Xu Fan, shattering the light curtain and the karmic threads about to entangle them.

"One by one, they’re targeting my precious disciple. Is he really that desirable?" Xu Fan frowned, watching the light curtain disappear.
