Chapter 590: Chapter 526 Filled with Longing, Yet Another Surge

"The probability of damage is not high."

After a moment of silence, Ye Fan recalled that he had been unable to sense the existence of the Crimson Golden Crown before arriving at Dong Hai, but it had appeared just in time to protect his consciousness during an attack, easing his furrowed brows.

"That would be best."

Although he said this, Chu Xuanji remained somewhat worried and said, "Just to be safe, I will protect you while you refine the Lifespan Extension Pill."

"Mm."

Ye Fan nodded. He knew that even if the Crimson Golden Crown was undamaged, Chu Xuanji would still protect him.

"The density of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi here is clearly higher than in other places. If a Nine Star Gathering Spirit Array were laid out, cultivation would be twice as effective. Do you want to stay here and cultivate in seclusion for a while?" Chu Xuanji asked again.

"No, let’s head straight back to Yanjing,"

Ye Fan thought for a moment before outlining his plan. "Although the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi here is richer than in other places, it’s not of much significance to me. I want to take the opportunity of refining the Lifespan Extension Pill to absorb the essence of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi and make a breakthrough in my Martial Arts Cultivation to the Innate Great Perfection Realm. That way, I’ll have three months to completely familiarize myself with the new realm."

"Xiao Fan, although you are already among the top of the younger generation, Emperor Bai is truly not to be underestimated. Even if your Martial Arts Cultivation steps into the Innate Great Perfection Realm, you are not his match," Chu Xuanji said with some concern, recalling what Ye Fan had said to Emperor Bai at the Tian Shan Sword Sect.

"I know,"

Face to face with Chu Xuanji’s blunt words, Ye Fan showed no signs of dismay. Instead, he was full of confidence. "Stepping into the Innate Great Perfection Realm will only increase my movement speed and defensive strength."

"Emperor Bai cultivates the ’Blood Shadow Saber Technique,’ which has potent Qi and blood, making him the bane of Illusionists. If you want to use Magic to win, you can only rely on wielding Flying Knives. But given the power of your Flying Knife assassination, it’s going to be hard to kill him," observed Chu Xuanji, seeing that Ye Fan intended to use Magic to win, yet still expressing some doubts.

"Old man, I forgot to tell you. After the incident at Tumur Peak when the Crimson Golden Crown returned to my body, I suddenly acquired a Manipulation Stream Attack Secret Technique!" revealed Ye Fan.

"A Manipulation Stream Attack Secret Technique?!"

Chu Xuanji’s eyes widened in disbelief as he had read many ancient books but had never come across such a technique.

"Swoosh—"

In response to Chu Xuanji, a piercing sonic boom rang out!

A white light flashed, and a flying knife whirred towards a mountaintop ahead.

"Clang!"

A crisp sound echoed as a rock on the top of the mountaintop was instantly penetrated, then shattered into fragments that flew in all directions.

"This..."

Seeing this, Chu Xuanji was astounded.

On the day that Ye Fan’s Magic Cultivation had broken through to the Innate Great Perfection Realm, Chu Xuanji had witnessed the power of his Flying Knife assassination and was already very surprised.

But at this moment, the power of Ye Fan’s Flying Knife assassination had doubled!

"That Manipulation Stream Attack Secret Technique is called ’Flying Sword Skill,’ consisting of nine techniques. What I used just now was only the first technique, and I’ve only skimmed the surface, not having mastered it yet," Ye Fan explained.

"What?!"

If Chu Xuanji had been merely surprised earlier, he was now utterly shocked!

Just skimming the surface of the first technique had doubled the speed and attack power of the Flying Knife assassination. What if he achieved great success? What would it be like if all nine techniques were mastered?

"I estimate that after I perfect the first technique of the ’Flying Sword Skill’, the speed, power, and agility of the Flying Knife assassination will be five times what they were before," Ye Fan guessed, as if answering Chu Xuanji.

"Sss~"

Chu Xuanji gasped in amazement.

In martial arts, speed is unparalleled.

A heavy sword without sharpness exerts overwhelming power.

Leverage force demonstrates skill in using minimal force to overcome a greater one.

Speed, power, and technique.

As the second-ranked on the Dragon Ranking, he was well aware that generally, martial techniques strive for these three aspects.

A martial technique that excels in any one of speed, power, or technique is considered good, and one that combines two aspects is top-notch.

"Xuansha Fist," "Yanhuang Fist," and "Blood Shadow Saber Technique" all exemplify this.

Now, the ’Flying Sword Skill’ that Ye Fan was cultivating, with just the first technique, already allowed for doubling the speed, power, and technique simultaneously, proving the dreadful potential of this Secret Technique.

After all, doubling speed, power, and technique was not as simple as just adding one plus one plus one—it made for a massive increase in combat capability!

"If you truly master the first technique, including Emperor Bai, no cultivator below the Peak of Gang Qi will be able to withstand your Flying Knife assassination!"

Recalling the power of Ye Fan’s recent Flying Knife assassination, Chu Xuanji felt an inexplicable excitement. "Moreover, if your Magic Cultivation breaks through the Half-step Gang Qi realm and you fully master the first technique of the ’Flying Sword Skill,’ then you will become the only one capable of killing a Gang Qi realm powerhouse in thousands of years in the Half-step Gang Qi realm. For the gap between the Gang Qi Realm and the Innate Realm is vast, insurmountable like a chasm, something that even in the Ancient Cultivation World, only a revolutionary Martial Arts genius could achieve!"

"Let’s hope it doesn’t scare Jie Dao and Master Bai then," Ye Fan said wistfully, then thought of something and asked, "By the way, old man, although you primarily practice Illusion Technique, you can also learn Manipulation Stream. Why don’t you try learning this Attack Secret Technique?"

"No, an Attack Secret Technique is merely a martial technique and cannot enhance cultivation. I’ve just broken through a bottleneck and am hopeful of advancing to the Great Perfection of Gang Qi. It’s better to focus on enhancing my cultivation for now, lest learning the ’Flying Sword Skill’ disturbs my consciousness and halts my cultivational progress," Chu Xuanji declined.

Chu Xuanji, although fascinated by the "Flying Sword Skill," thought it over and ultimately shook his head in refusal.

For him, there were hardly any opponents left in the world; increasing his combat power didn’t seem very significant. What he truly desired was to break through the Great Perfection of Gang Qi and then explore that legendary realm with Yan Yi!

In the early morning, Chu Xuanji, carrying Ye Fan, flew back to the courtyard on controlled Qi.

Under the old locust tree in the courtyard, Chu Ji was deep in meditation cultivation. Sensing Chu Xuanji’s presence, her eyes snapped open, and she saw Chu Xuanji floating down into the courtyard with Ye Fan.

Whoosh!

This sight sparked a gleam of joy in Chu Ji’s eyes.

However—

That joy was quickly replaced by anger. She abruptly stood up, hands on her hips, and scolded, "You little brat, I specially equipped you with a special communicator so I could contact you at any time, and you just disappear after going to Mount Tian—are you trying to worry me on purpose?"

"I lost it accidentally."

Facing Chu Ji’s scolding and sensing the concern and care in her words, a warm current flowed through Ye Fan’s heart; he explained somewhat awkwardly.

"Lost it?" Chu Ji’s eyes widened.

"Yes, while fighting with Xiao Selang, the martial arts genius of the Tian Shan Sword Sect, I accidentally lost it. I went back to look for it afterwards, but couldn’t find it."

Ye Fan sighed. That day, fearing that Meng Bai and Xiao Selang from the Tian Shan Sword Sect would join forces against him, he had pushed his speed to the limit to increase the distance, and in the process, lost the communicator.

"Damn it, those little bastards from the Tian Shan Sword Sect are tired of living, aren’t they? How dare they trouble you?"

Chu Ji’s face changed upon hearing this, and she couldn’t help but curse angrily. Then, realizing that Ye Fan was unharmed, she asked, "What exactly happened? How did you end up in a conflict with that bastard Xiao Selang?"

"That day, after I entered Mount Tian..."

As they say, curiosity killed the cat, and everyone has curiosity; women’s curiosity can be terrifying. Seeing Chu Ji’s curiosity piqued, Ye Fan had no choice but to start explaining.

"Your magic cultivation has broken through to the Innate Realm, and the power of your Flying Knife Assassination is so terrifying?"

Hearing that Ye Fan had defeated Xiao Selang, who had stepped into the Half-step Gang Qi realm, without exerting his full strength, Chu Ji’s mouth dropped open.

Seeing her reaction, Ye Fan couldn’t help but smile wryly, thinking if he told Chu Ji that his cultivation of the "Flying Sword Skill" had further increased the power of his Flying Knife Assassination, she might just faint.

"By the way, Master and Master Yan went to Mount Tian because the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi had increased significantly. How did you end up meeting him?" Sure enough, after the surprise, Chu Ji fired another question, determined to get to the bottom of it.

"Let’s do this, don’t interrupt, and I’ll tell you all about my trip to Mount Tian, how about that?"

Ye Fan felt a headache coming on but knew that if he couldn’t satisfy Chu Ji’s curiosity, he probably wouldn’t get any peace all night, so he chose to take the initiative to narrate.

"Okay."

Chu Ji nodded excitedly, then grabbed Ye Fan’s arm and said, "Come on, let’s go inside and take it slow."

As Chu Ji’s words rang in his ears and he smell her tempting fragrance, feeling the softness against his chest, even Ye Fan, with his strong mind, reacted like any normal man would, and something down below suddenly rose up.

Fortunately, he was wearing a loose robe, which was not very noticeable, and Chu Ji didn’t notice.

After entering the room, Ye Fan was dragged by Chu Ji to the bedside. Chu Ji quickly took off her long boots, jumped onto the bed, and seeing Ye Fan stand still, she said, "What are you dawdling for? Get up here~ on the bed?"

"—"

Ye Fan was speechless.

"Little brat, don’t get any ideas. I meant come up here to talk,"

Realizing the ambiguity in her words, Chu Ji’s face turned slightly red, then she quickly changed expressions, put on a coquettish smile, and teased intentionally, "What? Are your little girlfriends not satisfying you, and you have designs on your aunt?"

"If you’re not interested in listening, I can go back to cultivating," Ye Fan, already accustomed to Chu Ji’s teasing, retorted with a wry mouth.

"I know, my little Fan would never be so wicked. Come on, tell me about your glorious deeds at Mount Tian. My gut tells me that defeating Xiao Selang was just the appetizer."

Chu Ji said this, pulled Ye Fan onto the bed, crossed her legs, and assumed a demure posture, looking so well-behaved.

Ye Fan couldn’t help but smile wryly and began to recount his experiences on his trip to Mount Tian.

"Motherfucker, that little bastard Emperor Bai dared to steal your Snow Lotus King?"

"Son of a bitch, that little bastard Emperor Bai dared to force you into battle just because he is powerful?"

"Bloody hell, that little bastard Emperor Bai dared to act dishonest and bully others while the Jie Dao was present?"

"His grandpa’s JJ..."

"Hahahaha..."

As she listened, Chu Ji occasionally cursed out loud, but upon hearing that Chu Xuanji had defeated Jie Dao in three moves and Emperor Bai had knelt down to admit his wrong, her expression suddenly changed from the chill of deep winter to the warmth of early spring, laughing heartily, almost like a crazed woman.

"The Bai Family has started acting up again. You making Emperor Bai kneel and admit his fault is just the right blow to their heads, waking them up and saving them from a harder fall the happier they jump."

Chu Ji laughed heartily for half a minute before stopping, then something clicked in her mind, and she thought with satisfaction.

"The Bai Family has started acting up again?"

Ye Fan raised his eyebrows slightly, his reason telling him that during his time searching for medicine, some events might have taken place in the Huaxia politics.

And those events were definitely against the Ye Family and Ye Wenhao!
