Chapter 190: Chapter 189: The Stupid Way of Artifact Refining Dao
Translator: 549690339
Seeing the set of ten Wind Wings that matched the Sky Force Vessel brought out by the stupid Sha, Xu Fan breathed a sigh of relief.
“Master Sand Peak, this Sky Force Vessel is only at the treasure artifact level, it can only have a little fun near the shores of the Endless Sea, and might break in slightly larger beast tides.”
“It’s too dangerous and not very practical.”
“But it will be invincible on the Hundred-Thousand-Li Giant Lake.” Xu Fan commented.
“l know that it might take many years to advance to Artifact Refining
Grandmaster with my current talent.”
“l can’t make a Sea Vessel like the Floating Skyship for the time being, so I can only make this thing to satisfy my cravings.” The stupid Sha sighed.
Looking at the somewhat melancholic Sha, Xu Fan recalled the scene when they first met.
At that time, Sha was so energetic, the future pillar of the Heavenly Gate’s refining path, a man who firmly believed he could become a Refining Grandmaster in the future.
“Senior Brother Sha, have you encountered any issues recently?” Xu Fan asked, as there were only a few things that could make a man feel melancholic – either career or women.
“In the past ten years or so, I’ve found myself stuck in a bottleneck on the path of refining.”
“l feel like the road to becoming a Refining Grandmaster is shrouded in an invisible fog.”
“My master had also encountered this situation before. He told me that if a refiner stays in this state for a hundred years, the path to becoming a Refining Grandmaster would most likely be completely cut off.”
“It’s been almost 20 years now.” The stupid Sha said.
At this moment, Xu Fan’s hand heavily patted Sha’s shoulder.
“Master Sand Peak, 1 think you’re mistaken.”
“Your path to becoming a Refining Grandmaster hasn’t been blocked by fog, you’ve just lost your direction.”
A piece of Spiritual Iron alloy and a Jade Slip appeared in Xu Fan’s hand.
“Although I can’t point out the way forward for Master Sand Peak, I can give you some inspiration.”
Xu Fan handed the Spiritual Iron alloy and the formula to Sha.
“Think about the outer wall of our Floating Skyship back then.” After saying this, Xu Fan left Refining Equipment Peak.
Sha looked at the Spiritual Iron Alloy in front of him and checked the Jade Slip in his hand.
A moment later, his eyes were filled with endless brilliance, and he experienced a significant change.
“My path to becoming a Refining Grandmaster hasn’t been severed, I’ve just lost my direction.”
Flying in mid-air, Xu Fan looked back at the Refining Equipment Peak.
“l don’t know if just talking nonsense can inspire Senior Brother Sha,” Xu Fan said.
Xu Fan never had a clear concept of bottlenecks.
What the hell is this, is it something you can eat?
Now the only thing limiting him was his damn cultivation level.
“Master, the 300 Golden Core cultivators recruited by the Outer Sect have already taken their positions,” Pu Tao said.
“Then let’s proceed according to the plan, give them a wave of rewards to boost their morale, and then assign some long-term tasks to them,” Xu Fan said.
“Understood.’
“Master, Pang Fu has returned to the Hidden Spirit Sect.”
“Finally,” Xu Fan said excitedly.
In Xu Fan’s small courtyard.
Three or four dishes, a small pot of Spirit Wine, two people sitting opposite each other.
Xu Fan looked at the still round Pang Fu and laughed, “When will Pavilion
Master Pang advance to Nascent Soul Stage?”
At this time, Pang Fu r s cultivation had already reached the Golden Core Stage peak, and he was just one step away from advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage.
“There’s no hurry, the advancement to Nascent Soul Stage is the crucial period for our Commerce Road, so we must lay a good foundation,” Pang Fu said with a smile.
“That’s true, after all, your path is about doing business for the Heavenly Dao in our world.” Xu Fan said, although he had not been in contact with the Commerce Road, he had a rough idea of their advancement model. “If you need any help in the future, just ask directly, we’re not outsiders.” “Haha, thank you, Elder Xu,” Pang Fu r s mouth curled into a smile.
Pang Fu took out a large Space Ring and handed it to Xu Fan.
“Great Master, this is what you asked me to purchase,” Pang Fu said with some heartache, as these things alone had cost 80% of the Hidden Spirit Chamber of Commerce’s family assets.
“Don’t be upset, we at the Hidden Spirit Sect still have shallow foundations, and must produce some things,” Xu Fan consoled.
“I know, Great Master, after advancing to a Refining Grandmaster, you’ll need to refine a few Dao tools to support the sect.”
Pang Fu expressed his understanding, but it was a pity that he could not eat the fattest and most delicious profits from several chambers of commerce’s joint ventures.
“Haha, as long as you understand, I’m also helpless in taking away 80% of the spirit stones.”
“Wait, when I’m free, I’ll refine a few Dao tools for you to sell.”
After hearing Xu Fan’s words, Pang Fu r s eyes lit up. If he really had a few Dao tools to sell, he would be at a fatherly level in the chamber of commerce circles.
“Really?”
“When have I ever lied to you?” Xu Fan glanced at Pang Fu and said that after refining the 12 Giant Shields with the Titanium Spirit Ore, there would still be quite a bit left. He planned to refine some traditional defensive Dao devices and give them to Pang Fu to sell.
While eating the dishes, Xu Fan and Pang Fu talked about their plans for the future.
Xu Fan’s plans for the future deeply fascinated Pang Fu, especially the plan to refine the Immortal Tools Yu Zhou and trade with the various Middle
Thousand Worlds and Great Thousand Worlds, which deeply shocked Pang Fu.
Although Pang Fu knew Xu Fan was bragging, he didn’t even dare to dream of such bragging.
“Pang Fu, follow me, and someday I’ll make you the first cultivator to ascend in the Commerce Road in ten thousand years.”
“Even if I ascend to the Great Thousand World, I’ll still be your boss,” Xu Fan said.
For some reason, Xu Fan felt a particularly strong urge to chat today. He chatted with Pang Fu until late at night, sharing all his business insights from his past life.
It made Pang Fu’s blood boil, and he wanted to go on and do something big.
Deep into the night, after Pang Fu left, Xu Fan sat in his star-filled courtyard waiting for the two avatars to finish their work.
As Xu Fan was looking at the stars in the courtyard, he suddenly received a message from Pu Tao, saying that 11 Demon Clan teleportation array disks were about to fall 300 thousand miles south of Linsen Immortal City.
“Did you notify the Linsen Immortal City Elder Council?” Xu Fan asked.
“l notified them immediately, but these Demon Clan teleportation array disks are somewhat different from before,” Pu Tao said.
“The Demon Clan isn’t stupid. They’ll naturally improve their teleportation array disks after knowing there’s a problem. You just need to lock onto their location,” Xu Fan said.
Just then, the meteor’s tail that had been streaking across the sky suddenly disappeared, as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.
A red figure appeared in Xu Fan’s courtyard through the space.
“These Demon Clan teleportation array disks are different this time. Can you handle them?” Su Rentian looked in the direction where the meteor’s tail had disappeared and said.
“l can only predict their general location. Once the array disks have spatial fluctuations when transmitting the Demons, I can destroy them immediately,” Xu Fan said.
“Give me their general location; I’ll take Guardian Envoy with me to suppress them.” Su Rentian’s expression was somewhat solemn. There were a total of eleven fire lines in the sky just now, meaning there were eleven Demon Clan teleportation array disks.
“Southeast of Linsen Immortal City, the general area includes Tian Quan Country, Spirit Wood Country, and Wan Xin Country,” Xu Fan quickly reported the three locations.
“I got it.”
Su Rentian disappeared after he finished speaking.
“This Elder Su is more powerful than I thought,” Xu Fan said.
“Elder Su is the personal disciple of the eighth elder of the Elders Association, with top-notch combat power and magical treasures of the same level,”
Li Xingci appeared in Xu Fan’s courtyard, not knowing when she appeared.
“Unrivaled combat power, rich, and so infatuated with you. If it were an ordinary cultivator, their body and mind would have already fallen,” Xu Fan looked at Li Xingci and joked.
“Sigh, if Elder Su’ s taste wasn’t so unusual, I wouldn’t have so many troubles now,” Li Xingci sighed.
“Hundred Desires Dao, the final stage is Supreme Indifference. In the future, you might even kill your husband to prove the Dao.”
“l know, but don’t always think about the pessimistic side of things,”
“It’s not a must to take the path of Supreme Indifference. As for killing your husband to prove the Dao, your master believes that you will be able to solve this problem at that time,” Xu Fan patted Li Xingci on the shoulder and said.
“Hahaha, alright, I won’t joke with you anymore.”
“Since Elder Su took a fancy to you, I’ve researched Hundred Desires Dao more in-depth. Do you know why she chose you at first sight?”
“Because the cultivation technique you practice has a complementary effect with Elder Su. Isn’t it amazing? Even l, the creator, didn’t think of it.”
“If you have the intention, you two will have a good result in the future. At most, you will just eat soft food in the early stage.”
“There are many cultivators with poor appetite who want to eat soft food. Don’t feel burdened,” Xu Fan said.
“Master, are you in such a hurry to persuade me because you want to sell me?” Li Xingci frowned and said.
“Don’t slander your master, I am not that kind of person,” Xu Fan quickly explained.
“Alright, then I’ll find a way to reject her.”
“Master, can you suppress a Nascent Soul cultivator now?” Li Xingci asked seriously.
He doesn’t know that his master is just a pitiful little Golden Core stage cultivator.
“An average Nascent Soul cultivator, I will need three more years.”
“If it’s her, I’ll need ten years to prepare.”
Although he knew that Li Xingci was joking, he still answered the question seriously.
“Alright, I’ll try my best to delay for ten years,” Li Xingci laughed and said.
Xu Fan slapped Li Xingci on the head.
“You believe me or not, even without Elder Su p s help, I’ll clean up house ahead of time!”
This rebellious disciple dares to joke with his master. This trend must be suppressed, or else where will his future authority be?
“l was just kidding with my master,” Li Xingci said while holding his head. He had already made up his mind in his heart that no matter what, he would not involve his master.
“You’ve learned to make jokes with your master,” Xu Fan squinted at Li Xingci.
A giant yellow-skinned duck illusion slowly rose from behind Xu Fan.
At this point, Li Xingci recalled the fear of being dominated by the ducks and sank into an illusion.
Li Xingci stared at the hundreds of meters high yellow-skinned duck illusion behind Xu Fan and was stuck in the illusion.
In a pure white world, tens of millions of ducks converged, surrounding Li Xingci in the center.
At this moment, Li Xingci deeply regretted his words..
