Chapter #130. The TruthAfter Xiao Shilin's outburst, Ding Xi immediately instructed Manager Du to clean up all the chaos. They were fortunate that Xiao Shilin still maintained his composure. If he were to lose control, it wouldn't be unlikely that half of Daqing city would be destroyed.Tian Fan and the others were lucky not to be injured. Renzhi, Ding Xi, and Fujian promptly shielded them, preventing any serious injuries.Soon, Renzhi and the other elders moved Tian Fan and the others to another place while waiting for Xiao Shilin's return, who was still raging in the sky."Listen, all of you. This is for your safety," Renzhi stated firmly."Keep what you heard today a secret. Pretend you didn't hear anything and don't know anything, especially about the status of that kid! Can you do that?" Renzhi asked Tianzhi, Kai Fu, Sun Li, Guang Long, Master Yuan, and Manager Du.They all nodded in unison, agreeing to Renzhi's orders."It's good if you understand. Don't ask what or why because
Chapter #131. Ambushed"Fan'er, come here, this is a gift from our meeting. Seems like it'll be very useful in your hands," said Xiao Shilin while handing over a storage ring to Tian Fan."And this is my thank you for healing me," Ding Xi said as he handed another storage ring to Tian Fan."Sorry, I must return now to deliver what your mother prepared. With this, it seems your grandfather can finally start the cleanup we've long planned!""We'll also convey your mother's message to the guardian group. There are codes within it that still need deciphering. Message code 36 seems to involve the continent's security, and I promise, once we know the results, we'll inform you," Ding Xi explained."Alright, elders, I seek your help," replied Tian Fan respectfully."It's our duty because this might also be related to your mother's death. It's our responsibility as fellow members of the continent's protectors to provide an explanation," Renzhi added."Take care of yourself and we'll wait for y
Chapter #132. DestroyedNo matter how fast Tian Fan attempted to escape, being surrounded by five individuals - three in the Heavenly Realm, one at the final stage of the Emperor Realm, and Zhao San - made it impossible for him."Woooshh""Woooshh"Four directions of the wind had been occupied by Zhao Pi and the others; they closed off Tian Fan's escape routes. Knowing there was no way to flee, Tian Fan halted his run."Who are you trying to run from now?" Zhao Pi spoke excitedly."Who's running? Can't you see I'm standing still? It's not only your eyes that are damaged, but your brain too. How could someone like you become an elder in a major sect! Truly bizarre!" Tian Fan's words naturally infuriated Zhao Pi."You..." growled Zhao Pi.Swiftly, he dashed forward to strike Tian Fan, who was already prepared and moved towards Zhao Pi."Clang!""Thud!"The clash of their swords resounded, followed by Tian Fan's body slamming hard into the ground.Tian Fan, attempting to fight back, even
Chapter #133. Test of CourageA single sweep of the Zhao family elder's hand sent Lu Bu and Lian flying, forcing them to retreat tens of meters just from the elder's hand gesture."Ukh," Master Lian's voice expressed the discomfort in his chest."It seems the difference in power and realm is truly clear here," said Lu Bu, wiping a bloodstain from the corner of his lips.Lu Bu grinned, immediately lifting his sword again and advancing toward the Zhao family elder.Meanwhile, Zhao Pi quickly approached Zhao San lying on the ground, his eyes widened at Zhao San's pitiful condition.Besides the reopened wound on his chest, now his thigh muscles were severed due to Tian Fan's earlier sword strike.And what made it even more heartbreaking was Zhao Pi's condition he seemed to be mentally impaired.Zhao Pi's eyes reddened as he immediately glanced at Tian Fan running away, he promptly moved and dashed in Tian Fan's direction.Lu Bu and Lian couldn't do much to stop Zhao Pi because they were t
Chapter #134. TrialDing Xi and several of his subordinates quickly dashed towards the snowy forest, having received news from Tianzhi and the others about the attack on the Sun Sect disciples. They rushed to the snowy woods.Ding Xi immediately headed to the area where the battle had taken place, seeing several cultivators and emperors lying helpless. He hurried towards them."These...are Zhao family guards!" He murmured softly.Ding Xi grinned seeing them like that. Unexpectedly, Ding Xi unleashed his technique and incinerated them with his skill.The five guards died instantly from Ding Xi's attack. He then looked towards his subordinates."What did you just witness?" He asked calmly."We didn't see anything," his subordinates replied in unison.Ding Xi nodded, satisfied that his subordinates understood his intentions."Grandmaster, to the west, there are two people still alive, but they are severely injured. It seems both of them are elders from the Sun Sect," said another subordi
Chapter #135. A Small WorldJust as Tian Fan was about to sit down, his eyes caught the movement of three beasts approaching."Golden Wolves? An Emperor Realm and two late-stage Earth King Realm!" Tian Fan muttered softly.(Why are these beasts in the same place and time? It's really strange?)Tian Fan stumbled, thinking the three wolves came to smell blood and eat the dead beast.However, the three beasts attacked him instead."Darn it, what's this?" he muttered in frustration.The battle raged fiercely and intensely. With his body nearing its limits, Tian Fan fought with all his might, losing in terms of strength and numbers. Eventually, Tian Fan used his intellect and cunningness to fight against the three.After a long three-day-three-night battle, Tian Fan managed to kill the three golden wolf beasts at a great cost. His body was severely wounded due to the bites from these beasts.Tian Fan knelt down, lacking the energy to rise."I... must... stay... alive," he murmured softly.
Chapter #136. Hope"Why though? Just losing one Dantian makes you so pessimistic? Isn't there still two left? Besides, your Dantian can still be reformed?" Wu Zhishan remarked indifferently."What do you mean, elder?" Tian Fan asked impatiently."What do you think?" Wu Zhishan counter-asked.Tian Fan tensed up, as Wu Zhishan's words suggested that there was hope for Tian Fan to reform his Dantian."Elder, please guide me!" Tian Fan said, rising and respectfully clasping his hands together in a sign of deference, displaying his humility.Wu Zhishan smiled faintly at Tian Fan's enthusiasm. Without hesitation, he explained,"Sit down, young one. I will enlighten you. At least, by understanding this, when you manage to leave here, you can seek an alchemist who can help you," he continued.Tian Fan, without any preamble, explained his situation and abilities."I apologize, elder. It is not my intention to boast, but I am an alchemist. Presently, if following alchemical norms, I am at the l
Chapter #137. Preparing to Forge DantianAfter a lengthy discussion with Wu Zhishan, Tian Fan prepared for the process of forming his Dantian. Tian Fan was slightly amazed by the process he was about to undergo.Nevertheless, all his curiosity about forming the Dantian was now answered. Tian Fan actually wanted to inquire further about the higher realm beyond immortal, but Wu Zhishan refused to elaborate."There's a time for you to know that. For now, focus on reforming your Dantian first," Wu Zhishan firmly stated."Before we proceed with the Dantian forming process, I want you to firm up your body condition first, and the quickest way to go through that is, of course, by fighting. Here, there are many beasts that can serve as your training companions. Are you ready?" Wu Zhishan quickly asked."Not yet, Elder! I'm not ready," Tian Fan responded even faster."Junior wishes to prepare a few things first, including weapons and others. My sword is lost, and I also don't have the Qi to op
