The giant turtle with a small red flower on its head began to roar towards the sky, its voice covering the entire Hidden Spirit Island, causing all the attacking demonic beasts to retreat like a receding tide.
“That’s it, done and dusted,” Xu Fan dusted off his hands and said.
Removing the two sets of armor on his body, Xu Fan landed on the head of the giant tortoise.
“Show me where your nest is. The Hundred-Thousand-Li Giant Lake supposedly doesn’t have Nascent Soul Period Monsters, right?”
“Or are you saying you swam over from the Luo Tian River that’s a million miles away?”
Xu Fan sat cross-legged on the head of the giant tortoise, squinting his eyes. His Mind Power was already penetrating the tortoise’s brain.
“Sure enough, there is a hidden river. You laid a batch of eggs here on Hidden Spirit Island fifty years ago and came back today to bring them home.”
“Perfect. Your whole family can just settle down here,” Xu Fan said with a smile, since his sect unexpectedly gained a group of guardian spiritual beasts so quickly.
At this moment, Xu Fan received a report from Pu Tao that twelve baby turtles had been found.
A Flying Puppet quickly arrived, holding twelve turtles next to Xu Fan.
“In the future, you just stay on a good behavior here with your children,” Xu Fan said.
The giant tortoise gently nodded its head. It was aware that the life of itself and its children were in the hands of the man sitting atop its head.
Xu Fan returned to Hidden Spirit Island where many Tool Puppets were cleaning up the battlefield on the shore of the island. They picked up the valuable items and directly bundled up the worthless ones and discarded them into the distant lake. Soon, some demonic beasts would come out and deal with them.
His disciples gathered around Xu Fan, detailing their individual situations.
“Master, can I learn that divine power you used to turn demonic beasts into flowers? Xu Gang and Xu Yuexian were eagerly gazing at Xu Fan. Who wouldn’t love a divine power that not only looked good but was also powerful?
“Do you know how to grow a flower with seven-colored petals?” Xu Fan asked.
“Not a clue.” Everyone shook their head.
“That proves that you have no affinity with this technique, and it wouldn’t suit you.” Xu Fan shook his head and said.
Xu Fan had his own created divine secrets for each attribute. The wood attribute divine power called Sea of Thousands of Flowers he used earlier to kill the herd of demonic beasts and tame the giant tortoise. As for the small red flower, it was just a name he had offhandedly given it.
“Ah.” The two of them looked somewhat disappointed.
“Master, I had an insight during the recent battle. After I challenge the puppet, I can upgrade to the Golden Core stage,” said Wang Xiangchi.contemporary romance
“Master, I have reached my breakthrough too,” Li Xingci also added.
Xu Fan glanced meaningfully at Li Xingci. This kid has been hiding his real capabilities all along. He could’ve promoted to the Golden Core stage quite some time ago, but he was waiting for Wang Xiangchi to catch up.
“Good, when the time comes, our Hidden Spirit Sect will have four Golden Core stage powerhouses. This is a huge leap forward for our sect,” Xu Fan said, with a decision to enter a semi-closed door state when he got back. His target was the Golden Core Stage.
The talk of the master feels quite fake. This thought arose in the minds of Xu Fan’s four disciples simultaneously.
Three months later, around the same time, the Eldest Brother, Old Three, and Old Four began their closed-door cultivation.
Xu Fan and Xu Yuexian were at the Upper Spirit Peak of the sect, which was specifically designated for cultivators to break through. The density of spiritual energy there was nearly a hundred times stronger than in other parts of the Hidden Spirit Sect.
“Your big brother and your junior brothers have all broken through, aren’t you anxious?” Xu Fan asked.
“Why should I worry? I’m afraid they’ll snatch away my position as the sect leader,” Xu Yuexian joked.
“Alright, I won’t force you. After your big brother and the two junior brothers achieve their breakthrough, if you want to venture out for treasure hunts and training, feel free to do so,” He said.
“Feels like you’re all cooped up recently.” Xu Fan said with a smile.
Ever since Welfare left, he’s become more relaxed, going out when he wishes. Staying in the Sect didn’t hold much appeal to him anymore.
“After you leave, your Third Junior Brother and Fourth Junior Brother will probably leave too.”
“As disciples, good fortune may find you. Perhaps you will turn into esteemed ones after encountering unexpected adventures not long after leaving.” Xu Fan joked.
“Master, don’t worry. I will merely travel and hunt for treasures in the Central Continent. I will return anytime I wish and won’t wander too far.” Xu Yuexian said. Suddenly, she felt a flicker of guilt. If she and her junior brothers departed, only the eldest brother would remain by their master’s side.
“The Central Continent is already enough for you, where else would you want to go?” Xu Fan glared at Xu Yuexian.
At this moment, an anomaly appeared in the sky. An enlarged projection of Xu Gang, standing nine rods high, gradually shrank in the sky as if celestial music were playing, celebrating the birth of his Nascent Soul.
Xu Gang, having transformed into a three-inch tiny person, immediately returned to his body. Henceforth, the first Nascent Soul cultivator was born in the Hidden Spirit Sect.
“Blessed by celestial music, it appears you have done well.” Xu Fan nodded approvingly.
At this moment, Xu Gang walked out of the cultivation room, bowed to Xu
Fan, and said, “Master, your disciple has promoted to the Nascent Soul Stage.”
“Good, go back and consolidate. After you stabilize, do not cultivate too rashly. Spend more time with Xiao Xi.” Xu Fan said, feeling proud for the successful teachings he provided to them. Two months prior, Xiao Xi showed signs of being pregnant.
Compared to promoting to the Nascent Soul Stage, the transition to Golden Core Stage was much quieter.
“Master, we successfully promoted to the Golden Core Stage.” Both Wang Xiangchi and Li Xingci announced.
“Good.’
Xu Fan looked at his four disciples around him, realizing once again that he had the lowest cultivation level, excluding the newly admitted disciple.
“If you want to go out and cultivate, go ahead, but you’re only allowed in the Central Continent. If you really want to leave the Central Continent, you should at least master the final Divine Ability.”
Xu Fan handed out a Jade Slip to Wang Xiangchi and Li Xingci.
“Within these slips lies the Secret Method Technique you need to learn during your Golden Core Stage, Having mastered all of them, it’s certain that you will reach the top even if not invincible at the same stage.”
Three days later, amidst Xu Fan’s lonely expression, the Sect Leader and two Peak Masters left the compound.
“Alas, in the Sect, there are only three of us left who are adults over 18 years old.” Xu Fan sighed.
“Master, give it another 10 years. By then, when all the children have grown up, our Sect will be bustling.” Xiao Xi said. She had been taking care of all the children during this period and was now recognized as the big sister by all disciples.
“Yes, in another 10 years, these mischievous kids will all be grown up.”
Time slips by sharply. In the blink of an eye, ten years have passed.
On the surface of the Hundred-Thousand-Li Giant Lake, Xu Fan sat on a giant tortoise with a shell diameter of 10 meters, fishing. There were also two young men standing behind him.
“Elder Xu, the production line for Spiritual Pills that you asked the Pill Department to research has been successful. They are currently discussing how to set up the production line with three Artifact Refining brothers.”
“Yesterday, the Spirit rice that was planted according to your method, Elder Xu, has already been harvested, yielding a thirty percent increase from last year.”
“We just received news that the Illusion Peak Master appeared in Linsen Immortal City, accompanied by two ten-year-old children. He should arrive at the Sect soon.’
“Alright, 1 got it. You can go back to your tasks now.” Xu Fan said, heavily approving the youth’s actions.
The young man, Qiu Ziyuan, was a management genius dug out by Xu Fan. Ever since the affairs of the Sect were entrusted to him five years ago, Xu
Fan’s few remaining worries had vanished..
