Chapter 856: Chapter 829: One and a Half Years_1
"Fellow, how have you considered that matter?" Red Lotus Venerable asked, a hopeful glint in his eyes as he looked at Xu Fan.
It was rather like a beauty asking for your WeChat, and you wondering whether to give it or not.
"Not really, I\'m a craftsman, not interested in all that fighting and killing," stated Xu Fan with a slight smile.
"What if we offer the Heavenly Dao Will Origin of one of our two worlds, could fellow make an exception?"
At Red Lotus Venerable\'s words, it was not Xu Fan, but Pu Tao, who began to get excited.
"Would your Little White be willing to part with it?" Xu Fan asked with a meaningful smile.
"An incident arose in our area, so we\'re eyeing the other two Middle Thousand Worlds."
"They, in turn, have their eyes on my South Mountain World, having invited a Supreme from somewhere amongst the other Middle Thousand Worlds."
"Their two Supremes along with this one might pose a threat to the three Supremes of our South Mountain World."
"Moreover, according to our intelligence, they have an additional Supreme en route," the Red Lotus Venerable explained.
"Fellow, aren\'t you being a bit too upfront? Spilling all the beans, aren\'t you afraid I might seize the opportunity to drive a hard bargain?" Xu Fan asked.
"These aren\'t really secrets. Even if the other two worlds muster four Supremes, we are confident in our ability to protect South Mountain World."
"But we might lose our chance to annex the other two worlds."
"Allowing fellow to possess the Heavenly Dao Will Origin of one world is the highest price we can offer," the Red Lotus Venerable stated, looking at Xu Fan.
"Okay, when do we move?" Xu Fan questioned after some thought. The Heavenly Dao Will Origin of one world sounded quite appealing, worth his effort.
"Pu Tao, if you can devour the Heavenly Dao Will Origin of a world, to what extent will you evolve?" Xu Fan asked inwardly.
"I can certainly replace the Heavenly Dao of Feiyu Boundary," Pu Tao confidently responded.
"Let\'s pass on that. It\'ll be troublesome if you were to become the Heavenly Dao of a Middle Thousand World," Xu Fan replied.
"If fellow agrees, we would need some time to prepare. I will come to pick you up in about a year and a half," the Red Lotus Venerable said.
"See you in a year and a half," said Xu Fan as he served the tea.
"Alright."
Having finished speaking, Red Lotus Venerable immediately teleported to the Cross-border Transfer Array and returned to South Mountain World.
"Four Supremes, I wonder if they can warrant me to go all out. It\'s been a while since I\'ve been in action," Xu Fan muttered somewhat expectantly.
Time flies. Six months had already passed.
All disciples were diligently cultivating throughout this half year, eager to redeem themselves in the competition after six months.
Above the Hundred-Thousand-Li Giant Lake was moored an enormous elliptical Yu Zhou.
"Great Master, I will definitely return laden with goods," Song Ming pledged solemnly.
This was his first time leading such a large trading expedition to the Ancient Green World, and understandably, he was a bit nervous.
"Don\'t worry, the items I gave you will ensure a worry-free journey. As for profits, it\'s all up to you," said Xu Fan, patting Song Ming\'s shoulder with a smile.
Xu Fan then turned to his Quasi-Immortal avatar, who was piloting the Yu Zhou.
"If you encounter Star Thieves on the way, and can get away, do so. If not, use the shells embued with Sacred Sun Moon Yin power to strike. After the attack, don\'t stick around, just leave," Xu Fan instructed.
"Your wish is my command, master!" the Quasi-Immortal avatar saluted in response.
Xu Fan nodded, then turned his attention to his most cherished good brother, saying nothing as he placed an avatar onto Brother Yu Lun.
"I\'ll have Song Ming to hang around there a bit longer. You and sister-in-law can roam as you please and return whenever you\'re bored," Xu Fan said, grinning.
"I just want to get a glimpse of the sights of the Star Region and experience the other Middle Thousand Worlds," replied Wang Yulun.
Xu Fan took out a space Dao Tool and handed it to Murong Qian\'er.
"No need to thrift, buy whatever you like when you\'re there."
"Thank you, Brother Xu." Murong Qian\'er smiled and said.
"Uncle Xu, do I have a gift too?" Wang Ling\'er looked with anticipation.
"Yours is in there too, you could ask your mom for it." Xu Fan smiled.
"Star, take care of your godfather, don\'t let him get into trouble," Xu Fan finally said to this little girl with the mysterious combat power.
The oval-shaped Yu Zhou was activated and flew towards the sky, disappearing after a single jump.
Xu Fan waved to bid them farewell from below.
"I wonder how many surprises this lot can bring with them this time," Xu Fan looked at the sky and said.
Deep in the Vast Void Domain, there stands a towering giant tree that supports heaven and earth.
It was shrouded by a dark mist, from which weird noises spread out from time to time.
Now and then, one or several Bat Giant Beasts carrying Immortal Spirit Mines return.
A dark figure from afar looked at this scene, with a puzzled expression on his face.
"Just hold on, plot for this Middle Thousand Worlds, even if I have to wait tens of thousands of years, it\'s worth it," the shadow consoled itself.
He had been doing nothing but mobilizing all his power in search of the list of spirit mines that Xu Fan had given him all these years.
But when he thought of this place, the shadow thought of the humiliation that Xu Fan had brought him and a cold expression flashed in his eyes.
Just then, a voice rang out.
"Not bad at all, these little bats are working quite efficiently, it seems you\'ve taken the task I entrusted to you seriously."
"Very commendable."
A figure appeared beside the shadow, like a long-lost old friend.
Xu Fan patted the shadow on the shoulder and commended, "Good job, you work very efficiently."
The shadow saw Xu Fan, a complex expression in his eyes.
For this being who could overpower him in every aspect, he was completely submissive.
He had given up, as long as Xu Fan was in this world for a day, he would not act on his plan.
"More Immortal Spirit Mine is needed than you asked for, I fear it would truly take until the deadline to fulfill," the shadow resignedly said.
"No worries, we\'re good friends, you just deliver on the deadline," Xu Fan replied.
Having not seen each other for a while, the aura of the Tongtian giant tree was slightly stronger than before, but still within the range that Xu Fan could easily obliterate.
"This time I just want to have a good chat with you," Xu Fan showcased a friendly smile.
The shadow\'s face gradually twisted with humiliation.
"If you have something to say, say it quickly. After we\'re done, I need to nurture the bats to search for spirit mines."
I\'m already like this, and you\'re still coming over to mock me. What do you want me to do? Self-destruct for your amusement?
Xu Fan, with his arm over the shadow\'s shoulder, took him straight to the core space of the Tongtian giant tree.
If you were to say that Xu Fan could casually choke the Tongtian giant tree from the outside.
Then in here. He was practically located in the heart of the Tongtian giant tree, with a single thought, Xu Fan could obliterate it.
According to Xu Fan, this core space is clearly reserved for the final great battle.
The protagonist couldn\'t defeat the Bat Giant Beasts and struggled to get here, eventually destroying the Tongtian giant tree.
Before, Xu Fan thought that only American blockbusters would play out this way, but he didn\'t expect the Cultivation World to have the same pattern.
An obviously powerful civilization was somehow vulnerable to such a small existence, its fatal weakness found.
