Chapter 711 Can't beat them? We'll just use our bowls to escape!
Upon hearing this, Chen Fan remained silent, staring intently at what was in front of him!
The half-step Void Refinement cultivator smiled contemptuously, a barely perceptible hint of satisfaction appearing in his ghostly green eyes: "My name is Xuan Gu Shangren. For a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator like you to survive a single blow from me is already quite remarkable. I value your talent and am unwilling to crush you so easily. Kneel down, hand over a wisp of your lifeblood, and acknowledge me as your master. I will not only spare your life but also take you away from this desolate place. When I return to the outside world, you will be my chief disciple. With your talent and my guidance, breaking through to the Void Refinement stage within a hundred years will not be difficult."
Chen Fan remained silent, simply holding Eleven horizontally in front of him.
Seeing his attitude, Master Xuan Gu was not angry. He simply continued indifferently, "You, a junior, have already witnessed the mysteries of this space by recklessly barging in. With your own abilities, thinking you can leave alive is a pipe dream. I have been in these ruins for thousands of years and know every spatial rift here like the back of my hand. Acknowledging me as your master is your only chance to survive. You should understand that the gap between the Nascent Soul stage and the Void Refinement stage cannot be crossed by willpower alone."
Chen Fan suddenly smiled.
"Throughout his life, Chen has never had the habit of being a servant to anyone."
Upon hearing this, a hint of regret appeared on Xuan Gu Shangren's withered face, as dry as tree bark.
He shook his head slightly and slowly raised his hand. The moment his withered hand was raised, it triggered all the spatial rifts within hundreds of feet around him, like an invisible net slowly closing in.
Chen Fan wasn't foolish enough to wait for him to make a move.
With a thought, he vanished from the spot in an instant.
If you look closely, a speck of golden dust the size of a islet falls silently in the darkness, blending into the pile of bone fragments, completely inconspicuous.
The sudden scene caused Xuan Gu Shangren's hand to freeze in mid-air.
For the first time, a hint of surprise appeared in his ghostly green eyes, which he couldn't believe.
Without giving it much thought, he spread out his divine sense, carefully scanning every inch of the ground within a radius of several hundred feet.
However, after a moment, Master Xuangu withdrew his hand, his brows furrowing slightly!
He then flicked his fingers repeatedly, and dozens of gray-white spiritual lights poured out in all directions like a torrential rain, blasting all the bone fragments within a radius of dozens of feet into powder.
Visible to the naked eye, dozens of pits several feet deep appeared on the ground, and the air was filled with a pungent, burnt smell.
But Chen Fan still hadn't appeared!
Master Xuan Gu's expression changed as his brows furrowed!
His divine sense swept over the area again, even more carefully than before, leaving no grain of sand or pebble undetected.
After searching for a while, he was stunned and stood there dumbfounded.
No.
There was nothing there.
That late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator vanished into thin air, without any spatial fluctuations, teleportation traces, or even a trace of residual aura.
Master Xuan Gu's expression turned somewhat unpleasant!
A faint hint of gloom appeared on his withered face. He made a hand seal, forming an extremely ancient mudra in front of him.
Instantly, a powerful divine sense spread out in all directions like a tide, expanding from the initial hundreds of feet to several miles, and then from several miles to dozens of miles, covering the entire land of dead souls along with the surrounding ruins.
He even explored every spatial rift, searched every dilapidated stone palace, and forcibly probed dozens of feet underground with his divine sense!
However, after a full incense stick's time, he still hadn't found anything.
Master Xuangu withdrew his divine sense and stood silently in the center of the ruins for a long time. The indifference that had been accumulating for thousands of years in his ghostly green eyes was finally broken, replaced by an extremely complex gloom.
A cultivator at the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm vanished into thin air before him, a half-step Void Refinement cultivator, without leaving a trace.
If this were to get out, probably no one in the entire cultivation world would believe it, but it happened right under his nose.
Master Xuangu raised his hand and, in a fit of extreme anger, slammed his palm down on the ground.
This palm strike was unleashed in anger, and the force of the palm reduced all the bone fragments, rubble, and flying boat debris within a radius of a hundred feet to dust!
The solid underground rock layer was also blasted into a huge palm print more than ten feet deep, and the spatial cracks at the edge of the palm print were violently shaken by this force.
Smoke and dust billowed into the sky, obscuring most of the land of the dead.
But this was still to no avail.
The cultivator named Chen Fan acted as if he had never existed.
Master Xuangu withdrew his hand, stared at the huge palm print on the ground for a long time, and finally slowly turned around and disappeared into the depths of the ruins in a flash.
Inside the Golden Bowl space, Chen Fan sat cross-legged in the quiet room, his face slightly pale.
His left arm was fractured when he took the spear head-on. Although the wound on his tiger's mouth had been sealed with spiritual power, a trace of that Void Refinement level power still remained in his meridians, constantly eroding his spiritual power like a bone-deep abscess.
A cultivator at the half-step Void Refinement stage is terrifying!
Feeling a bit shaken, Chen Fan sighed and took out some pills to begin healing his injuries!
Afterwards, it took him three whole days to completely expel that trace of Void Refinement Power from his body, and another two days to repair the bone fracture and the hidden injuries to his meridians!
It wasn't until the fifth day that Chen Fan was able to recover.
Not in a hurry to leave, he got up and walked out the door.
In the courtyard, Eunuch Wei was lying on a bamboo chair, legs crossed, drinking fresh spiritual tea.
Seeing the old eunuch come out, he said with a calm expression:
"Want a drink?"
Chen Fan, smiling with his eyes narrowed, shook his head slightly.
He glanced at Eunuch Wei, then turned and walked out.
Wang Wang Wang!
Just then, the black wind was chasing and biting the black wind.
Watching the dog and horse chase each other, Chen Fan couldn't help but laugh!
Without looking at it for long, he looked back at the field.
Xiao Die was leading a dozen or so miscellaneous disciples of the Qingyun Sect to sow the new year's crops, creating a lively scene.
Shi San, on the other hand, was rather lazy and was actually hiding away to take a nap at this hour.
Undisturbed, Chen Fan smiled, feeling that these peaceful days were far better than the cultivation world outside!
After a moment of reflection, he had a sudden thought and reappeared in the ruins of the Land of the Dead.
Four days had passed in the outside world.
The scorching heat left by Master Xuan Gu's palm strike still lingered in the air. The enormous palm print on the ground was shocking, and the bone fragments at the edge of the print had been melted into glass-like crystals by the high temperature.
Chen Fan stood at the edge of the palm print and glanced at it, estimating the power of that palm strike in his mind!
He pondered that if he were to take the hit head-on, even with his current cultivation level fully activated, he would definitely not be able to withstand it.
He withdrew his gaze, used the Fixed Word Technique to extend his divine sense to the extreme, and after confirming that there was no trace of Xuan Gu Shangren within a radius of several miles, he carefully circled around the edge of the palm print and continued to advance into the depths of the ruins.
