When Xu Fan saw the little boy, he decided to accept him as a disciple, even without any connection to Wang Yulun.
Because when Xu Fan saw the little boy, his mood improved a lot, and he was infected by the boy’s clean temperament.
“What’s your name?” Xu Fan looked at the lucky little boy and said.
“Li Xingci, six years old this year, and I can recognize a thousand characters now.” The little boy smiled and seemed very infectious.
“Would you like to worship me as your Master?”
“Yes, uncle Wang said that if I worship you as my Master, I can become an immortal flying high in the sky.”
“Then can you tell me what cultivation is for?” Xu Fan asked again.
“To succeed in cultivation and make my dad apologize to my mom in front of her grave.”
Xu Fan’s fingertip shone with spiritual light, and he gently tapped the little boys brow to test him after the meeting.
“Actually, your dad is also a victim, but I still support your idea.”
Saying this, Xu Fan carried the little boy to a guest room bed.
Xu Fan had a prerequisite for accepting apprentices: they had to go through his final soul test to prevent teaching ungrateful disciples in the future.
Once, Xu Fan went out of the Sect to relax and met villagers outside Immortal
When the villagers found out that Xu Fan was an immortal, they brought their children to worship him as their Master, hoping for a chance to cultivate immortality. However, none of them could pass the final soul test. In the soul world, almost all of them abandoned their Master with low cultivation levels after success in cultivation.
Even if they had passed, Xu Fan would only introduce them to Heavenly Gate and had no plans to accept them as disciples.
In the evening, in Xu Fan’s little mountain, the Master and his four disciples ate dinner together.
This was Xu Fan’s habit. Even though he could now abstain from food for a month, he still ate breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day.
“Wang Xiangchi, go back home and visit your parents more often when you’re free. Let your Senior Brother take you to the Inner Sect.” Xu Fan said. This kid obviously saw Xu Fan as his father.
“Yes, Master.” Wang Xiangchi, who was eating, looked up and said. Going home was not as fun as learning swordsmanship with the Master. If only the Master were his real father.
At this moment, Xu Gang happily said to Xu Fan, “Master, I finally mastered the Nuclear Explosion Technique today.”
Looking at his eldest disciple, Xu Fan sighed that it wasn’t easy for him to finally master the second secret technique.
Xu Gang, who was already in his twenties, was now the highest Foundation Establishment combatant in the A-Class Hall. His most dazzling achievement was during a mission when he single-handedly intercepted a Beast Tide at the Foundation Establishment level, almost shattering the worldview of his fellow brothers.
“Well, not bad. Ponder more in your daily practice, and don’t rush to learn new secret techniques,”
“The most powerful technique may not suit yourself.” Xu Fan said, knowing that his senior disciple had a clear goal and focused on one direction, specializing in the offensive technique of killing.
A small Fireball Technique, when released from his hand, was already as powerful as an ordinary Foundation Establishment Divine Technique.
“Yes, I understand.” Xu Gang nodded, although he yearned for the Foundation Establishment Divine Techniques in spellcasting, he deeply believed in Xu Fan’s words.
“l know you want to practice the Divine Techniques that can be mastered by the Foundation Establishment stage, but don’t worry. You have just reached
Foundation Establishment, and now is a time to consolidate your cultivation. So you don’t need to rush.”
“Also, since you have reached Foundation Establishment, let me announce that you must cultivate for at least 60 years in the Foundation Establishment stage before you can break through to the Golden Core Stage.” Xu Fan said.
Regarding Xu Gang and Xu Yuexian’s Foundation Establishment, Xu Fan felt a bit regretful. They were both Second- Stage Foundation Building, which made Xu Fan somewhat unhappy. The first-rate resources, top-notch Cultivation
Techniques, combined with the best Master, resulted in merely a
Second-Stage Foundation Building, which was on par with Wang Yulun.
“Master, my Senior Brother and Senior Female Apprentice both have secret techniques. Do I have any?” Wang Xiangchi looked at Xu Fan expectantly, having longed for the secret techniques that his Master had taught his older apprentices.
It is said that these secret techniques were tailor-made for them by the Master, and he wondered when it would be his turn.
Xu Fan looked at Wang Xiangchi.
“Xiangchi, have you decided on your Sword Dao?”
“Sword Formation Dao, Heart Sword Way, Overlord Sword Dao, Guard Sword Dao, Slaughter Sword Dao…”
“Which of these Sword Daos do you choose?” Xu Fan asked.
“All Daos follow the heart, the Heart Sword Way.” Wang Xiangchi said firmly, the Sword Dao is based on the heart, and the power of the heart is limitless.
As Xu Fan understood the Heart Sword Way, he realized that it was the most mysterious existence in Sword Dao. When strong, it could fight Heaven and Earth; when weak, it could very likely be easily defeated by those with higher cultivation levels.
“Alright, three days after cultivating your heart, come to me in your peak state.”
“After passing through my Soul Illusion Realm, I’ll teach you the secret technique.” Xu Fan said.
“Thank you, Master.” Wang Xiangchi said happily.
At this moment, the door of a guest room opened, and a clean, delightful six-year-old boy emerged.
“Master, 1 1 m hungry.” The little boy said.
Looking at the little boy, Wang Xiangchi suddenly felt that the boy was very familiar, as if he were his own younger brother.
“Alright, this is your Fourth Junior Brother, Li Xingci.” Xu Fan introduced to his three disciples.
Xu Yuexian got up and filled a set of chopsticks and bowls for the little junior brother.
“Hello, little Junior Fellow.” The three greeted, and their first impression of the little junior brother was quite satisfactory.
“Hello, Senior Brother, and Senior Female Apprentice.” Li Xingci smiled and said, his smile was very infectious.
Seeing the harmonious relationship between the four disciples, Xu Fan nodded in satisfaction. He was very pleased with these disciples. Without unexpected circumstances, after accepting a few disciples talented in Artifact Refining and Alchemy, his plan for accepting disciples would be complete, and all that was left was to cultivate them well.
When these disciples all became Great Powers, he could rest easy and enjoy a retired life, refining artifacts and creating spiritual pills. By then, bringing the internet back would not be a problem, and he could spend thousands of years living comfortably.
After dinner, Xu Fan arranged a room for Li Xingci before returning to his own room.
“Should I cultivate the techniques above the 12th Level of Qi Cultivation, which I have been researching and getting the hang of?” Xu Fan said to himself. As Xu Gang and Xu Yuexion’s cultivation level increased, Xu Fan’s desire to cultivate beyond the 12th Level of Qi Cultivation greatly diminished.
“No bugs that burn lifespan can be exploited. It could cost lives.”
“Now, the only hope is to determine this System’s definition of time.
Unfortunately, I have not found two places with different time velocities yet.”
“Is it because my level is too low?” Xu Fan wondered.
Xu Fan hated the damned Life Limit System on his body. As time passed, Xu Fan experienced the pain of not being able to advance in cultivation.
Being surpassed in cultivation by his disciples was indeed an unpleasant feeling, which was why Xu Fan began studying the System’s definition of time recently..
