Chapter 828 - Crazily Improving Strength

For a cultivator, he could eat ten or even one hundred basins of rice if he’d like, let alone one basin.

Han Fei had no choice but to finish this basin of rice.

He swore he would never come to Senior Brother’s house for dinner again unless he had to. This was simply torture!

As for what would happen to Wang Dashuai, he was sorry but he couldn’t help him.

After finishing a basin of rice, Bai Lu looked at Han Fei and said with a smile, “Little Junior Brother, Xiao Jiu is adorable, right? Do you know it’s me who fixed you up? I talked to Granny Yin about you. She took Xiao Jiu as her granddaughter. She recognized your strength and talent, so she agreed to arrange a blind date for you two. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have had the chance…”

Han Fei gave Wang Dashuai a shocked look, and the latter gave him an innocent look back as if saying that I don’t know anything about it!

Han Fei couldn’t help but smile bitterly. “Sister-in-law, I’ve already got a girlfriend. Besides, I am too busy with cultivation to have the time to start a relationship!”

Bai Lu immediately patted the table and said, “Yes, I know Xia Xiaochan is nice, pretty, and has a deep bond with you. But we’ve gotta move on. Things happen but people have to move on.”

Han Fei was speechless. What are you talking about? Xia Xiaochan is not dead. Besides, I really don’t have time now! Lao Han was locked on the fourth floor of the Scattered Star Prison, and his whole body exuded the smell of secrets. In the Demonic Forest Channel, there is still a vine waiting for me to get. The secrets of the Sea Quelling Painting may soon be revealed… With so many things to do, how can I have the time!?

But he just kept nodding and suddenly said, “Sister-in-law, well… I’m going to build my house this afternoon. Tomorrow, I’ll hold a big banquet at home and entertain guests for dinner. Please come… Well, I’ve gotta go!”

Bai Lu smiled and said, “OK, off you go then. But remember, don’t dive into the pond. The one below… is not very good-tempered. If you need to go there to fish, take Big Yellow of Granny Yin with you.”

“OK! Sister-in-law, don’t bother to see me out. Bye.”

Qing Chen also got up quickly. “Wait for me. I am bored. I can help you build the house.”

Bai Lu shouted from behind, “Wang Dashuai, you go too. Won’t you help your Junior Brother? Go, go…”

“Okay, okay!”

After a moment…

The three of them ran to a clearing more than 1,000 meters away from the pond. It was surrounded by high mountains and the Empyrean Waterfall was close at hand. The water pouring down from the waterfall hit the cliff and splashed up clouds of mist.

Wang Dashuai said, “Junior Brother, did you pick this place? But it’s too close to the Empyrean Waterfall. I heard from your sister-in-law that there is a vacant lot not far from Xiao Jiu’s house. You can farm there and it’s not so humid.”

Qing Chen nodded. “Yes, this is right by the waterfall, too humid and noisy.”

Han Fei thought to himself, I will never live next to Jiuyin Ling.

Suddenly, thinking of Bai Lu’s words, he looked down at the pond and asked, “Who is the one below?”

However, then he saw Wang Dashuai shake his head slightly and blink at him, seeming to be indicating something.

Han Fei glanced at Qing Chen. Could it be because Qing Chen was here so it was not convenient to talk about it?

Qing Chen chuckled and said, “You’ll find out anyway. If you have enough good things on you, you’ll find out soon.”

Han Fei couldn’t help but wonder, What does he mean? What does this have to do with my possessions?

However, Han Fei didn’t ask anymore. He just chuckled and said carelessly, “It’s okay. I am a spirit gatherer and an array master. I chose here because the misty water here is very suitable for setting up a large array, especially the Hundred Water Profound Killing Array. The water here can be the source of energy for the array.”

Qing Chen tilted his head and glanced at Han Fei. “I bet you and Xiao Jiu would make a good couple. Here, only the two of you have set up bunches of arrays at home. Won’t the arrays stop you from enjoying the scenery?”

Han Fei sneered. “You don’t understand the array, do you? With an array here, it’ll be easier for me to enjoy the scenery. I can bask in the sun and see the stars whenever I’d like. Do you think I’m soaking in the water every day?”

Clang!

Wang Dashuai threw his big door to the ground and said with a smile, “That’s it. Junior Brother, since you like it here, let’s pull some trees and build a house.”

…

In the evening.

Wang Dashuai went back home.

Han Fei and Qing Chen squatted in front of the flowing water villa just built between the rocks.

Qing Chen sighed. “Han Fei, your house is beautifully built!”

Han Fei smiled, thinking, It’s called Flowing Water Villa! There is even an open-air swimming pool on the second floor, which is actually a killing array.

In the afternoon, Wang Dashuai carried hundreds of large bluestones and piled them into a small cliff. Han Fei drew a stream of water to pass by his door, looking quite beautiful. Now he just needed to pull up a few more trees and get some plants from Youye to plant here. Then this would definitely be the most luxurious building here in the Empyrean Waterfall.

Han Fei sat down on a chair. “Aren’t you going home?”

Qing Chen chuckled. “I didn’t build a house! Why don’t we live together…”

Han Fei immediately interrupted him, “No way. I am used to living alone, and I need to cultivate.”

Qing Chen was not offended. He smiled. “Well, I helped you in the afternoon, right? Aren’t you going to treat me to dinner? The same as we ate at noon will be fine. Hot pot, right? Now I find that you are the best cook here…”

Han Fei immediately understood: no wonder he didn’t want to leave. It turned out he wanted to bum a meal from him!

Han Fei said leisurely, “Actually, I don’t cook much, just occasionally. Fine, I’ll make a hot pot for you tonight. But after you finish, you should go home! I’m about to start cultivating.”

“OK, OK!”

…

After Qing Chen left, Han Fei waved his hand, and the whole flowing water villa was surrounded by clouds and mist.

He chose this place because it had the most spiritual energy and was close to the waterfall, so if he made a breakthrough here, few people would notice.

Then no matter if he cultivated or made a breakthrough in the future, no one would doubt him.

As for the one below… If I don’t mess with him, he won’t come out to attack me, will he? There are so many people here anyway.

Now I finally have time to cultivate!

Han Fei poured all the 87 level-two Soul Crystals out. These were collected by Le Renkuang for him during this period of time and were quite a lot.

Since he stabilized his soul in the Demonic Forest Channel, he hadn’t improved his spiritual power because he ran out of Soul Crystals. It would take him too long to improve his spiritual power if he only meditated on the God Scaring Painting!

At this time.

Han Fei casually grabbed a level-two Soul Crystal and quickly absorbed it.

One piece.

Two pieces.

…

Han Fei’s eyes flickered, and when there were only 27 Soul Crystals left, his upper limit of spiritual power reached 2,999 points, and his perception range reached 29,999 meters when he reached another bottleneck.

“Umm!”

Han Fei let out a sigh of relief. This time, the spiritual power increased more than he expected.

This meant that the ownerless souls he absorbed in the Ancient 72-Floor Demon Realm had indeed increased his soul power by about 50%.

He took a look at his data:

<Owner> Han Fei

Level: 49 (Peak-Level Hanging Fisher)

Spiritual energy: 5,322,658 (19,908)

Spiritual power: 2,999/2,999

Perception range: 29,999 meters

Spiritual heritage: level-7, low-grade

Spiritual Beast: Twin Yin-Yang Spirit Swallowing Fish (Level-45)

Main Art: Void Breaking Technique, the fifth level, “Divine Manipulation Technique” (heaven-level, divine-grade)

…

Han Fei looked calm. When he was on the fourth floor of the Scattered Star Prison, the upper limit of his spiritual energy increased rapidly, and he was close to the bottleneck.

But he had a hunch: within half a month, he should be able to become a Hidden Fisher.

He smiled. I must make good use of this breakthrough opportunity. Upgrading from a Hanging Fisher to a Hidden Fisher is a qualitative leap! Then maybe I can also have a breakthrough in spiritual power.

“Alas, the Soul Crystals are not enough!”

Han Fei took a look at his remaining 27 level-two Soul Crystals. Then he suddenly remembered that he was already of the six-star rank now. Maybe he could redeem his credit points for more level-two Soul Crystals now!

Forget it, I can use my connections. Anyway, Xue Shenqi seems to know something. It shouldn’t be a problem for me to buy more Soul Crystals openly.

Yes! For this breakthrough, I’ll have to seize the opportunity to enter the Soul Sea. I can’t just eat blindly. I should try to figure out the secret of the Soul Sea…

And my beasts… It is too expensive to feed them with Spirit Awakening Fluid. If I can rob another Undersea Chimney, or stealthily dig into the Transverse Mountain…

This thought passed by in a flash.

Han Fei was shocked by his own thoughts. Wang Dashuai was restricted from going out to sea because he robbed an Undersea Chimney.

No! Even if he became a Hidden Fisher, he would only be a junior Hidden Fisher. In the Transverse Mountain, there were many strong people. He couldn’t ruin his chance to go to sea because of this small profit.

Yes! After I become a Hidden Fisher, I’ll go explore the Pearl Sea.

Huh, that’s not right! The Heaven Spirit Detoxifying Insect is now only level-33, which is too low. Well, I should visit Ye Qingfeng more and then go get some Poison God from Cao Qiu…

Lost in wild thoughts, Han Fei lay down on the chair. With a slight wave of his hand, the clouds and mist in the array dispersed, revealing the shining starry sky.

Suddenly…

Han Fei’s eyes narrowed, and he sensed that someone glanced at him.

The power of perception was very subtle. If it weren’t for the sharp increase in his spiritual power, he wouldn’t have even noticed it.

Han Fei couldn’t help but turn his eyes to the pond under the Empyrean Waterfall. Who the hell is the one below?
