Chapter #13. Training the Tiger Hunter Sword Technique
Tonight, Tian Fan spent his time training physically, channeling his frustration into rigorous practice.
Tian Fan recalled the words of his teacher, Guan Wei: "Why are humans more dangerous than beasts?"
Because humans possess inherent qualities of jealousy, malice, and envy, constantly competing and undermining each other.
Other inherent traits include arrogance, lack of compassion, and a absence of mercy and empathy. They will attack anyone, relying on their ferocity and strength, sharp claws, and fangs. Their character is one of cruelty, devoid of justice.
The strong rule, and the weak perish. There is no measure of right and wrong, only a display of power. This is what we know as the law of the jungle.
The strong survive, and the weak are humiliated. The brave oppress the cowardly. The strong devour the weak."
Because of this, his teacher advised Tian Fan to choose his companions wisely, evaluate people carefully, and never become someone who is used or uses others.
And most importantly, to use his strength and intelligence for the benefit of many.
Tian Fan took his teacher's words to heart as his guiding principles.
Moans still echoed from inside the cave, but Tian Fan, hearing them, remained indifferent and casually walked into the cave.
Seeing Tian Fan's arrival, Sun Li smiled with joy, while Xi Shi remained arrogant, even though she knew she needed help now.
This stubborn and spoiled attitude had nearly led to the deaths of Sun Li and herself. However, even in the face of danger, she couldn't bring herself to acknowledge her mistakes.
Tian Fan approached Sun Li. "Senior, how are you feeling now? Is there still any pain?"
"Senior has improved, thanks to the help of Fan. ...Fan, can senior... ask for your help to save Shi'er?"
"I'm sorry, senior. I cannot fulfill your request," Tian Fan replied candidly.
Sun Li understood Tian Fan's refusal, realizing that Xi Shi, with her arrogance, didn't see Tian Fan's sincerity in helping her.
Tian Fan handed four pills to Sun Li and asked him to take two today, assuring him that by tomorrow, Sun Li would be able to walk again.
"Senior Li, senior Xi, I must take my leave as there are some matters I need to attend to," Tian Fan said again.
Tian Fan clasped his hands in a show of respect and promptly departed without a single glance in Xi Shi's direction.
Xi Shi could only watch Tian Fan's departure until he disappeared from her sight. She had wanted to ask for his help and apologize for her behavior, but her ego got the better of her. She cursed herself for her selfishness.
Three days passed, and Tian Fan returned in better spirits. He had recently followed a pack of silver wolf beasts that had attacked the territory of the Earth Bear Beast realm.
The Earth Bear beasts, still injured from the first attack by the silver wolf pack, fell victim to a successful second assault.
Tian Fan was delighted, as he had obtained many new and rare medicinal plants, plus the bonus of the Earth Bear Beast in its final realm stage, a 5-meter tall and 8-meter long treasure for Tian Fan.
Upon arriving at his cave, Tian Fan saw Sun Li standing outside with an inscrutable expression on his face.
Seeing Tian Fan's arrival, Sun Li hurried over and pulled him inside the cave.
"Little Fan, please quickly check on Shi'er. She has been unconscious for two days now."
Tian Fan immediately examined her and reassured Sun Li, "Senior, there's no need to worry; she is perfectly fine. It's likely that she lost consciousness from enduring too much pain."
Tian Fan then gave Xi Shi some pills of his own making.
Without being asked, Tian Fan proceeded to help the still unconscious Xi Shi, with Sun Li by his side.
Reluctantly, Sun Li complied with Tian Fan's request. After treating Xi Shi, Tian Fan handed several pills to Sun Li to give to her.
Seven days passed, and Tian Fan spent much of his time practicing and honing his physical abilities.
He hadn't returned to his cave in several days, as Tian Fan explored the newly conquered territory of the Silver Wolf Beast Pack.
This region, once under the control of the Earth Bear Beast, was rich in high-quality medicinal plants and housed many powerful beasts.
Here, Tian Fan began to test his sword skills, particularly the Black-class sword technique from the sword manual, the Tiger Hunter Sword Technique.
This technique relied on high-speed attacks, culminating in a powerful strike with both hands, creating a sharp sword slash and a blade of wind.
After two days of perfecting the Tiger Hunter Sword Technique, Tian Fan found that a single strike could cleave a large rock and cut down five trees behind it. And that was using just his physical strength.
Tian Fan then trained with his qi, and the results were three times more devastating.
After a brief rest, Tian Fan roamed the forest in search of opponents. He encountered a fierce Forest Boar Beast in its final realm stage, standing at three meters tall. The beast immediately attacked him.
They exchanged blows, with Tian Fan trying to find an opening to use his sword technique. However, the agile movements of the Forest Boar Beast made it challenging for Tian Fan.
His biggest challenge was his lack of experience using the sword and his technique in combat. After some time and adjustments, Tian Fan finally defeated the Forest Boar Beast.
Throughout the day, Tian Fan hunted in the depths of the red forest to further train his sword and newly acquired technique.
Several beasts in their final realm stage fell to his sword technique. Feeling drained of his qi due to the extensive use of his technique, Tian Fan decided to cultivate to restore his energy.
As he was about to begin cultivation, Tian Fan was attacked from a distance. He caught the object thrown towards him and opened his hand to reveal a pill - a Qi-replenishing pill.
Tian Fan glanced in the direction of the attack, even though the thrower was quite far away. His keen senses allowed him to spot an elderly man standing 200 meters in that direction.
Tian Fan realized that the old man must be observing him, so he respectfully saluted from afar.
The old man said, "Hoo... a fascinating young one, being able to detect my presence here."
Tian Fan then consumed the Qi-replenishing pill and, shortly after, finished absorbing its effects.
He approached the old man, saying, "Junior pays respects to Master," as he respectfully cupped his hands.
"Thank you, Master, for the Qi-replenishing pill."
"No need to be so formal, young one... it's just a pill," the old man replied.
Tian Fan sensed that there might be some underlying intention behind the old man's gesture. Feeling that the old man meant well, Tian Fan responded warmly, "As a token of my gratitude, may I be of assistance to you, Master?"
"Hahaha... young one, it seems you understand my intent. I apologize if this old man used slightly improper means."
Tian Fan simply smiled in response.
" Young one, it seems you have been living in this forest for quite some time. Have you ever seen a young man and a woman wearing robes with the symbol of the sun, similar to mine?"
Tian Fan hesitated briefly. Seeing his hesitation, the old man understood his doubts.
"Young one, this old man is their teacher," he said.
Tian Fan remained cautious, not fully trusting the old man yet.
"Forgive me if I am bold, but if you are their master, could you provide me with their names and descriptions?"
The old man then described his two disciples and mentioned their names, Sun Li and Xi Shi.
Tian Fan, upon hearing the description and names, finally nodded and trusted the old man.
"Young one, do you know where my disciples are? Let me accompany you to them. By chance, both of my disciples are currently in my dwelling place. Shall we, Master? The journey is about one day to the south from here, towards my home."
They then set off together to Tian Fan's cave.
During their journey, the old man introduced himself as Liu Bai, the 19th elder of the Sun Sect, tasked by the sect's master to find his two disciples, who had been missing for quite some time.

Tian Fan made a promise to himself that he would help others facing hardships, just as he once did. Not wanting to dwell in sadness, Tian Fan began to stroll around Greenleaf City, visiting various places and observing how people interacted. He eventually stopped at a clothing store, recalling the events at the Lotus Flower Shop. While walking around, he remembered the incident and decided to buy some clothes, spending just a few dozen silver coins (1 gold coin = 100 silver coins). After changing into his new clothes, Tian Fan's appearance changed, and many people greeted him with respect, especially considering his handsome face. Tian Fan remained composed and continued to explore the city. At the outskirts, he f

Can Manager Zun provide me with one?""A strengthening element pill?" Mu Rong said with surprise, as he had never heard of such a pill before."Young Master Fan, I've never heard of a pill like that. Wouldn't it be better to use existing pills?" Mu Rong offered his opinion."In that case, Master Mu Rong, could you recommend a pill that would be suitable for Miss Zhui?" Tian Fan inquired."Well..." Mu Rong hesitated, unable to provide an answer."What about a meridian-cleansing pill? With that, Miss Xin Zhui's qi and aura have already returned to normal. By giving her this pill again, there's a chance she could awaken more quickly," Zhaojun suggested."Please go ahead and

Without his help, I could never have come this far. I need to thank him and become friends with Young Master Fan," she muttered.Xin Zhui emerged from her room, wearing her finest clothes.

She said flatly.Tian Fan just smiled in response to the woman's words, even explaining it would still be wrong because he himself didn't think that what he had done had actually brought him good luck.Tian Fan walked two steps from his position, he then pay respect to the woman by cupping his hands. “This Junior Tian Fan thanks senior for your kindness, I'm sorry for troubling senior with this matter.

"He said happily."Ehh..."Tian Fan was shocked when his consciousness was suddenly forcefully pulled into his subconscious. Now he was in a completely white place which was like being in a cloud. "This is my subconscious, I didn't expect that now this place would turn out like this. "He said in a monologue.Still in amazement, Tian Fan's attention was focused on a point where energy fluctuations occurred, that point transformed into a white sphere that continued to grow until it formed a figure resembling a human.After thirteen deep breaths, the figure revealed its true form, now appearing before Tian Fan as a slim, muscular man, with a graceful face, honey golden eyes, and lon

If this battle took place in the beginning sky it would destroy many worlds and stars!

In just a matter of a few breaths, Lady Yun was now dozens of mi behind him.“Damn, this woman's speed is so unusual! It turns out that the difference between the realms of the eighth and ninth divine realms is really that big!" Tian Fan thought to himself.Just as a flash of thought crossed his head, he suddenly showed surprise when there was something in front of him. He quickly dodged to avoid colliding with a round, pink energy shield. He avoided the red energy field because he felt danger from it.Tian Fan was shocked when suddenly the energy field reappeared where he had avoided it so that now there were two circles of energy fields that almost hit his body."I told you before, you can't run away from me!" Lady Yun exclaimed from her position, it seemed that the leader of t

Lady Yun exclaimed irritably."Then what should I say? It's clear that you're in the wrong here, and I've clearly asked you to be quiet!" Lady Feng said with emphasis on Lady Yun.“First Sister, he must die! Only by eliminating him can we ensure a more secure future situation!" exclaimed Lady Rong, her voice firm and resolute as she pointed directly at Tian Fan. After a brief pause, she continued with an air of conviction."If he is truly a Dragon Alchemist chosen by the heavens, then his presence here is no mere accident it is a destined event, a sign woven into fate itself.

No one answered because everyone didn't know for sure what happened, only sharp gazes were created, all of them were directed at Tian Fan as the perpetrator of all this.Tian Fan casually reversed the hand seal he had previously made to bring up a special magic diagram into his small world where it also caused the seven element shield that surrounded him to now shoot towards the kekkai that Lady Shin had created.DbummThe seven element diagrams destroyed the weakened kekkai, which also caused the four Phoenix leaders who were still shocked by the situation to be immediately thrown from the center controlling the Phoenix soul generation magic diagram.SeeetTappTian Fan imm

" He thought while looking seriously at the carvings on the floor where the Phoenix carving looked like it was made of red dust.Tian Fan's eyes narrowed, he dug through the memory in his head to find out about the red dust.In his silence, his eyes could not fail to notice the four Phoenix leaders who had now combined the magic diagram under their feet with the large magic diagram they were occupying.“Tian Fan, they will use the Phoenix soul summoning technique that is in that formation diagram! From there, the existing array of spells and ruins will attract your soul as food for the true Phoenix!"

"If you still persist in your opinion of establishing communication with the dragon group then it will be impossible to do, it is clear that the existence of crystal shards and guidance stone fragments is dangerous for everyone if they fall into the wrong hands." She said seriously.Lady Rong raised her hand, pointing at Tian Fan while her eyes glared at Jia Xue. “The dragon alchemist never existed! So far we have been deceived and fooled by all these stories. What is the destiny of heaven? Everything that happened was just a fabrication!” she said loudly. “You also saw the truth for yourself
