Chapter 493: Spirit Ore Stars

Xu Fan’s teaching session lasted for three days and three nights.

All the disciples who listened were visibly entranced, and some on the verge of a breakthrough couldn’t control their spiritual energy, leading to successive breakthroughs.

However, those who broke through were promptly escorted out by the puppets maintaining the venue.

As soon as Xu Fan concluded his teaching, Xiong Li, Xiang Yu, Xu Lingtai, and others, who had been holding their breaths with flushed faces, all sighed in relief. Then, waves of spiritual energy erupted around them.

It felt like after holding back for three days and nights, the floodgates had finally opened.

The first-generation disciples of the Hidden Spirit Sect began to break through to the Nascent Soul stage one after another.

After finishing, Xu Fan glanced at the sky and gently waved his hand, causing the golden lotus of Merit and Fortune Aura to disappear.

"Combining teaching with Merit and Fortune is simply exhilarating," Xu Fan remarked, looking back at the nearly solidified fortune treasure canopy.

Since the last significant surge of Merit and Fortune, Xu Fan noticed that his daily gains were increasing.

The small amount spent during this teaching was negligible for Xu Fan.

In the past, such a loss would have bothered him for a long time.

After the teaching, Xu Fan returned to his courtyard to rest. Three days and nights of imparting wisdom had taken a toll on his mind.

"With my mind worn out, how could I not take the chance to sleep?" Xu Fan said with a yawn and quickly fell into a deep sleep.

…………

At Qianling Sect, Li Lei Hu and Eryuan were being shown around by a friendly disciple from Qianling Sect.

"During this time, I’ve guided these two friends through the sect. How well do you understand the areas within the sect?" the Qianling Sect disciple asked with a smile.

"Pretty good, but the canteen is a bit lacking; Qianling Sect is really huge," Eryuan said, continuously stuffing pieces of dried squid into her mouth, holding a bag in her hand.

"Thank you for being our tour guide; we now have a basic understanding of Qianling Sect," Li Lei Hu nodded and then shot a glare at Eryuan.

"That’s great! If you need anything in the future, just contact me through a communication artifact," the Qianling Sect disciple said before bidding farewell and leaving.

"After spending a few days in Qianling Sect, what do you think?" Li Lei Hu asked Eryuan beside him.

"Pretty good, but there aren’t any eye-catching delicacies," Eryuan said, pulling up Qianling Sect’s holographic map to see how many canteens there were.

Muttering to herself, she declared she must try every canteen before leaving.

"…"

"Alright, I’ll take you to see those Cultivation Secret Realms," Li Lei Hu said, feeling speechless.

On their way back to their cave dwelling in Qianling Sect, Eryuan suddenly seemed to remember something and quietly asked Li Lei Hu, "Now that Sister Lin isn’t here, can you tell me who won that battle?"

"Which battle?" Li Lei Hu looked surprised.

"The one between you and the Chief Disciple of the Outer Sect," Eryuan said, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.

"Oh, that battle? I’d say it was a draw," Li Lei Hu replied lightly.

"Really? You got beaten up so badly by Uncle Butcher every day, but it ended up as a draw?" Eryuan exclaimed.

Li Lei Hu’s expression darkened; his little Junior Sister really wasn’t suitable for chatting with others.

"I’m improving, and so is the Chief Disciple of the Outer Sect. It’s normal for it to end in a draw," Li Lei Hu stated.

"Brother Tiger, it feels like you’ve endured so many beatings from Uncle Butcher for nothing. Each knife that fell on you, even though it was in a game, the pain felt real," Eryuan said.

"Eryuan, I just remembered I have something to take care of in the cave. I’ll leave first," Li Lei Hu said.

As he was cruising smoothly, a series of lightning flashes surrounded him, and soon the roar of thunder sounded in Eryuan’s ears.

"Boom~"

A sonic boom exploded right beside Eryuan, and Li Lei Hu’s figure disappeared into the horizon.

At that moment, the Third Grand Elder of Qianling Sect caught sight of this scene.

"The Sacred Body of Thunder is truly a good candidate!" the Third Grand Elder of Qianling Sect remarked with emotion in the Taichi Great Hall.

"Don’t even think about it; such a disciple is definitely a key focus for their Grand Elder. If you want to poach, you won’t find an opportunity," the voice of the Grand Elder echoed softly.

"I can still stay in this realm for over 3000 years. Aside from not being able to use the celestial tools handed down by the sect’s Grand Elders, I still plan to take two celestial tools with me when I ascend to the Upper World."

"That Grand Elder of the Hidden Spirit Sect is undoubtedly someone with deep karma; becoming an artifact great master in the future is already certain."

"So, the main thing now is to maintain a good relationship; any poaching behavior is unacceptable."

"Big Brother, I was just expressing my feelings; why are you so anxious?" the Third Grand Elder said, glancing at the Grand Elder.

"Do you think you are the only one who wants celestial tools?"

"That Hidden Spirit Sect Disciple is actually the Sacred Body of Thunder. I will give him an opportunity to strengthen the friendly relations between our sects," the Third Grand Elder said, producing a Thunder Pearl in his hand.

Within the Thunder Pearl, limitless thunder powers surged, like an ocean of thunder.

"You are really investing a lot," the Grand Elder said.

"It’s an accidental find, and since there are no thunder-type holy bodies in our sect, it’s better to build a good partnership than let it waste away in my hands," the Third Grand Elder chuckled.

"It seems you are also quite worldly," the Grand Elder laughed softly.

"You are not lacking either; that Grand Elder of the Hidden Spirit Sect has your Avatar Jade Talisman, so there’s nowhere in the world you can’t go," the Third Grand Elder added.

After thousands of years together, who doesn’t know whom?

"For the friendship between our two sects, giving away an Avatar Jade Talisman is nothing; I have more once it’s used."

The Grand Elder was surrounded by profound scriptures, slowly condensing towards the figure of another Grand Elder.

"Well, I’d also like to give an Avatar Jade Talisman, but with my current fighting strength, I’d be no better off than the Spirit Cut Elder of the Hidden Spirit Sect."

"Sending it out would just be embarrassing," the Third Grand Elder lamented.

At that moment, both the Grand Elder and the Third Grand Elder looked up at the sky.

"Big Brother, Third Brother, look at what I’ve found!"

The entire sky over Qianling Sect darkened as two Star Ships dragged a Spirit Ore Star that was several hundred kilometers in diameter.

"This is ridiculous; don’t you fear hosting such a large Spirit Ore Star may cause Earth Spirit collapse?" the Grand Elder said, breaking the space to leave.

"I’ll just fly slowly myself," the Third Grand Elder remarked.

"Haha, I just arrived in the Extreme Void Domain’s northern region when I saw five giant beast race warships dragging this Spirit Ore Star."

"This Spirit Ore Star has mostly artifact-level spirit ore; with a little processing, it can be made into finished products. With this, we can ask the Heavenly Refining Sect to customize another Star Ship."

At this moment, Master Qianling felt somewhat restless; the excitement he felt was even greater than when he obtained a celestial tool.

"Second Brother, you have made a contribution," the Grand Elder of Qianling Sect said.
