Chapter 455: 428: The Flower of Will
“Who is advancing to the God Transformation stage, daring to cultivate so many different Great Dao divine abilities all at once? Isn’t that asking for death?” Zhan Ling looked at the sky in surprise.
“It’s my master. I’ve only seen this scene of the Ten Thousand Dao visions falling when my master was advancing,” Li Xingci said excitedly, holding Su Rentian’s hand even tighter.
“Immortal Path, Demon Path, Buddha Path, Monster Path, Ghost Path, Artifact Refining, Alchemy, Formation, Divination, Life, Yin and Yang…”
As Zhan Ling looked at the scene of ten thousand dao visions falling from the sky, he was getting more and more shocked, muttering to himself, “My God, this is not as simple as being the reincarnation of a great power from the Immortal World.”
“Could it be that your master is the reincarnation of some Heavenly Dao?” Zhan Ling conjectured with his mouth wide open.
“Quietly, I should tell you, I asked Master such a question too,” Li Xingci whispered to Zhan Ling with a smile in his eyes.
Feeling Xu Fan’s aura in the visions, he was sure that his master hadn’t fallen, and after these years of worry, his heart gradually relaxed.
“What~” Zhan Ling instinctively whispered too, with a gossipy look in his eyes.
“My master said, hold tight to his thigh after a million years,” said Li Xingci, laughing out loud.
Su Rentian also covered her mouth and laughed. These years, she finally saw her husband’s face with a smile.
Although Zhan Ling felt awkward, he kept Li Xingci’s words in mind.
At this time, the ten thousand dao visions began to converge towards the Yuan Bell Sword, and under the spiritual power of the Hidden Spirit Sect, the ten thousand dao visions became even more divine.
Just at the moment when the ten thousand dao visions completely merged into the Yuan Bell Sword, a spiritual light burst out from within the sword.
Outside the Yuan Bell Sword, it turned into a human and a bear.
As soon as the human and the bear appeared, they adopted a unified posture, spreading their arms and feeling the air of the Cultivation World.
“Bear Second, we finally made it out,” Xu Fan sighed.
“Brother Xu, we really made it out~~~” The black bear was in tears, looking as if it had been separated for tens of millions of years.
Xu Fan patted the black bear like a sworn brother.
With just this pat, the black bear’s defenses broke and it hugged Xu Fan, sobbing loudly as if a aggrieved child seeing their parent.
Xu Fan hugged the black bear, his mind full of thoughts.
In the closed space, Xu Fan thought he could spend thousands of years inside, but he ultimately underestimated the suffering of the silence that came after, which almost gave birth to a heart demon.
It was fine in the first hundred years, playing with the black bear and occasionally deducing divine skill cultivation methods.
Later, he gradually discovered that this so-called Ancient Demon Sky Slaughter was not quite right.
It was true that he was a true spirit of an ancient demon, but the original true spirit’s consciousness had long disappeared countless years ago.
Now, the ancient demon true spirits, based on Xu Fan’s speculation, were at least offspring with consciousness from more than ten generations.
From birth to annihilation, through tens of thousands of years of time, giving birth to new consciousness, inheriting the memories of the previous generation, and then experiencing the silent suffering of time for millions of years, ultimately choosing self-destruction under unbearable pressure.
Now, this generation of black bear inherited only the name Sky Slaughter and a pitiful memory, just the bit of memory Xu Fan encountered when he first entered the place.
Actually, the black bear now is like a half-blank piece of paper. When Xu Fan came in, the black bear was pretending, intentionally intimidating Xu Fan in order not to be hurt.
For the rest of the time, Xu Fan was like a father, guiding the black bear to eliminate the suffering from tens of thousands of years of time’s quiet agony.
After that, Xu Fan used illusions to show the black bear the wonders of the Cultivation World, taking him through various experiences, even using the Hundred Lifetimes Reincarnation Skill to grant the black bear a perfect bear life.
Originally, Xu Fan intended to be regarded equal to the black bear father and son, but after some thought, to avoid misunderstandings, Xu Fan eventually became the eldest brother.
At this moment, all the Peak Masters, Elders, and disciples of the Hidden Spirit Sect were gathered around Xu Fan, watching a thirty-foot-tall black bear hugging Xu Fan and crying bitterly.
Everyone showed strange expressions, while only Xu Gang had a solemn expression and a hint of crisis emerged in his heart.
After a long time, the man and bear separated.
“Greetings to the Great Master for coming out of seclusion!” first and second gen disciples greeted respectfully and bowed.
There were even disciples who had not arrived in time, and their voices were heard from the distance.
Xu Fan’s slightly vicissitudinous gaze swept around, and he took a deep breath, saying faintly: “My cultivation has greatly increased, the entire Sect shall celebrate.”
A real Merit and Fortune Treasure Cover appeared behind Xu Fan, and he waved his hand gently.
A beam of flowing light rushed into the sky, containing Xu Fan’s half’s merit and fortune, along with the comprehension and will born in response to heaven and earth of the ten thousand dao.
As the flowing light rushed to the top of the Sect Array, it burst like fireworks, turning into countless colorful little flowers drifting down towards the entire Hidden Spirit Island.
At this moment, Xu Fan’s voice echoed throughout Hidden Spirit Island, sounding like a bell, a dragon’s chant, like ten thousand dao, and like the Sound of the Great Dao.
“My grand wish is that my Sect disciples be brave, wise, and virtuous.”
“May my Sect disciples have the spirit and charm of the dao, each like a dragon, standing in the great competition of the world.”
“May my Sect disciples……”
As Xu Fan’s voice echoed, the colorful little flowers scattered across Hidden Spirit Island merged evenly into the bodies of each disciple.
A colorful little flower landed on Zhan Ling’s hand.
“Ah, if I were young again more than four thousand years ago, I would have joined Hidden Spirit Sect to cultivate anew~” Zhan Ling lamented, knowing that the colorful little flower in his hand had great potential.
This was the Flower of the Ancient Sect’s Will, carrying the Sect’s will and the power of merit and fortune, integrated into the Sect disciples, it greatly benefited the development of future Sect disciples, comparable to ancient Foundation Establishment divine elixirs.
At this moment, the three generations of Sect disciples were all embedded in a state of sudden enlightenment, comprehending not the cultivation method, nor divine abilities, but a Great Dao will that was born in response to heaven and earth.
“Master, you’re finally out!” Xu Gang and the others excitedly gathered around Xu Fan and exclaimed.
“Yes, I’m finally home.” Xu Fan said with emotion.
“You all have done well. The Sect is now stable, and I am deeply satisfied.” Xu Fan said with satisfaction, having been informed of the development of the Hidden Spirit Sect over the years by Pu Tao the moment he stepped out.
“We were all worried about Master’s safety, and did not have the heart to develop the Sect. Thus, we focused on stability, waiting for Master’s return.” Xu Yuexian said.
“That’s not bad either.” Xu Fan looked at these disciples, thinking that he must support a professional Sect Leader.
“By the way, this is Bear Second, an acquaintance I met in the Secret Realm. From now on, you can address him either by Bear Second or Elder Bear Two.”
“From now on he will be an Elder in our Hidden Spirit Sect.” Xu Fan introduced.
“Greetings, Elder Bear Two.” Xu Gang and others hurriedly bowed and greeted.
“Hello, everyone.” Bear Second scratched his head sheepishly.
“Alright, I’ll retreat for a few days to stabilize my cultivation, and then we’ll discuss future matters.”
Xu Fan took Bear Second back to the small courtyard he had been away from for hundreds of years. The lounge chair made of Teng Steel Wood swayed gently in the wind within the small courtyard.
