Chapter 691: The Yin Flower and the Sunflower

Xu Fan was in his courtyard, refining and optimizing his techniques and methods.

A streak of light darted across the sky and soon arrived at Xu Fan’s courtyard.

“How did you handle that precious son of yours? Spank him or make him stand in punishment?” Xu Fan asked with a smile.

“Just put him in seclusion for 10 years to break this thought,” Li Xingci said.

At this moment, Xu Fan noticed that Li Xingci’s expression was somewhat shy.

“Just say what’s on your mind; can your Master really laugh at you?” Xu Fan said, intrigued.

“Master, Tian’er and I want to have another daughter. Can you help us refine a special pill?” Li Xingci said through gritted teeth, looking as if he wanted the embarrassment to end quickly.

Xu Fan’s expression froze for a moment, then he burst into laughter.

“Nine Sun Dragon Pills, strength-enhancing pills, or Dragon Essence Pills, what kind of pill do you want?” Xu Fan said with a grin.

“Master, you misunderstood what I meant; I’m looking for a spirit pill that increases Tian’er’s chances of pregnancy,” Li Xingci replied helplessly, trying to keep a straight face to protest.

“Ah, so that’s it.”

“I was worried that you had other needs.”

“However, as the saying goes, great strength brings miraculous results. I can refine some of these spirit pills for you; they will have some effect.”

“There’s no need for you to worry about this, Master. I can handle this matter myself; I only want the spirit pill that increases pregnancy chances,” Li Xingci insisted, maintaining his serious demeanor.

“Oh, this small problem can be resolved directly at Alchemy Peak.”

“Since you’ve come to me, I certainly won’t refuse.”

Two seeds floated in front of Li Xingci.

“These were prepared for your Senior Brother. Since he doesn’t need them, you can use them.”

“The Yin Seed and the Sun Seed; plant them in spirit soil after taking them back.”

“Use Elder Ran Tian’s blood to nurture the Yin Seed, a drop daily, and in 49 days, it will bloom into the Yin Flower.”

“The same goes for the Sun Seed; use your blood to nurture it.”

“When the flowers mature, bring them to me, and I will refine a unique spirit pill of the heavenly Dao for you. As for the rest of the process, I won’t elaborate.”

“Then your daughter will have the strongest talents and gifts in every aspect,” Xu Fan said, smiling.

“Master, won’t this go against the laws of nature?” Li Xingci asked with concern.

Even he knew that such things violated the ethics of the heavenly Dao.

Xu Fan waved his hand with a chuckle.

“It’s no issue; what is gained requires some letting go. I can exchange some human race merit and fortune with the heavenly Dao.”

“Besides, all of this is destiny, which is predetermined in the grand scheme,” Xu Fan said.

“Well…” Li Xingci still felt worried; he didn’t know what kind of price his Master would pay for this.

“It’s nothing to worry about. The merit and fortune I’ve gathered have already reached a critical point; no matter how much more I accumulate, I can’t progress further.”

“Rather than that, I might as well help you secure some benefits.”

"Master, thank you for your concern," Li Xingci said, touched.

"It’s just a small matter; plant the Seed Flowers well for me, and in just a few years, you’ll have both a son and daughter, a perfect harmony."

"But don’t you want to take a few more of those strength-enhancing spirit pills?"

"Do you know that in the cultivation world, these pills are far more precious than those that help one break through realms?" Xu Fan squinted at his good disciple.

Generally, for this kind of ability, the more, the better.

Even if they pretended to resist for the sake of appearances, deep down, they still desired them.

"Why not take a few?" Li Xingci prepared to speak from the heart this time.

"There you go! The path of disaster is mysterious; a strong mind leads the way."

Xu Fan smiled and waved goodbye to his good disciple.

"Master, we have completely discovered the patterns of that strange wind; by appropriately adjusting the flying speed and route of Hidden Spirit Island, we can completely avoid it," the voice of Grape chimed in.

"Have you completely figured it out? Does Hidden Spirit Island have real-time detection methods while flying?" Xu Fan asked.

"We’ve researched it; as long as there’s a fluctuation from a blade’s light explosion, we can completely detect the patterns of the strange wind ahead."

Hearing Grape’s explanation, Xu Fan nodded in satisfaction.

"Let’s not rush to leave; let’s explore this core area. According to the laws of the cultivation world, the more dangerous places tend to harbor treasures," Xu Fan said, not wanting to waste time in this place.

"Understood, Master," Grape replied.

"Before that, let’s first clarify the retreat route, and then we’ll search for treasures," Xu Fan thought for a moment and said.

No matter the time, planning the escape route is the most important thing.

"Understood, Master."

At this moment, the disciples on Hidden Spirit Island noticed that the island was slowly moving.

Those disciples who had not cultivated gathered together, riding a spiritual boat and hovering in a spot close to the protective grand formation, observing the scene outside.

Han Feiyu was among them; he gazed at the scenery outside, lost in thought.

After experiencing so much in the sect, he suddenly realized that even though he possessed that kind of extraordinary treasure, at times, it did not translate into fighting strength, and when it mattered most, it would be all for nothing.

He once thought his sect was powerful enough, strong enough to even counter or slay the Invincible Beast King.

However, recent experiences reshaped his understanding; there was indeed such a powerful Invincible Beast King in the world.

With a single force, it drove the entire Hidden Spirit Sect to flee from their previous location.

But the sect was quite formidable too; as the saying goes, what goes around comes around. If you can’t beat the strong, you can still deal with the weak.

Thinking of this, Han Feiyu shifted his gaze to the square in front of the main peak.

The two Invincible Beast King specimens stood in the center of the square, demonstrating the sect’s might.

"From now on, I’ll stay in the sect and focus on cultivating; the outside world is truly too dangerous," Han Feiyu sighed.

Lately, he had felt that it was too easy to encounter the Invincible Beast King; here, encountering even one would mean death without a grave.

As Hidden Spirit Island began to move slowly, all the disciples watching the scenery in the sky noticed.

The island’s sailing route was quite strange; at times, it took a zigzag pattern, at other times an S-shape, and sometimes it would spin in place.

"This must be to evade that strange wind," some disciples figured out the reason.

"This place is truly too dangerous; it’s better to leave early," the disciples discussed among themselves.

Just then, a strange sound passed through the sect’s protective grand formation, echoing throughout Hidden Spirit Island.

"What is that sound?"

As the disciples wondered, Grape notified them that the sect was under attack by a horde of Bat Giant Beasts.

Xu Fan looked at the ten or so Bat Giant Beasts in the light curtain ahead and became immediately interested.

"Recently, my bones have been itching for a good fight; I didn’t expect them to bring the practice to my doorstep," Xu Fan said as he slowly closed his eyes.

At this moment, the Nuclear Bomb Beast King, who was cultivating in the demon division, heard Xu Fan’s voice.

"I need to use your body to fight, to help you stabilize your Great Ascension Beast Sovereign realm."
