Chapter 773: Chapter 685: Fight Through a Bloody Path!

Chu Xuanji, upon hearing this, said nothing more but lowered his head to look at Bodhi Wuyin in his arms, his gaze somewhat distant.

Whoosh!

Master Yan, seeing this, waved his right hand, emitting a wave of Gang Qi that enveloped Chu Xuanji and Bodhi Wuyin, carrying them forward.

Meanwhile, he led Ye Fan and Su Liuli, who followed behind at a distance of over a hundred meters.

After doing all this, Master Yan explained to Ye Fan, "Your master must be feeling very sad right now, let him be alone for a while."

"Thank you, Master Yan," Ye Fan nodded and thanked.

"Silly boy, your master and I have spent a lifetime together, considering each other as the only confidants. Why are you being formal with me?"

Master Yan gave a bitter smile, then changed the topic, "Xiao Fan, although your strength is already outstanding among your peers, and even considered a Young Supreme in the ancient cultivation world, this does not mean you are invincible among your peers, and similarly, you still have a long way to go if you want to kill Chen Daozang."

"Master Yan, do you mean Ye Fan is not a match for Doug?" Su Liuli, drawn in by the topic, blurted out.

"No,"

Master Yan shook his head lightly, saying, "Although Doug is strong, with Xiao Fan’s current combat power, if he uses both magic and martial arts, he might not necessarily be at a disadvantage, and once he breaks through to the Gang Qi Introduction Realm, he can easily kill him."

"Isn’t Doug said to be the strongest of the young generation? Are there really geniuses stronger than him in the young generation?" Ye Fan also became curious.

"As you said, he is only claimed to be the strongest, not recognized as the strongest," Master Yan explained, "There indeed are stronger geniuses in the young generation."

"Who?"

This time, Ye Fan and Su Liuli asked in unison, their faces filled with curiosity.

"Not just one person, but six!" Master Yan’s words were astonishing.

"Six?!"

Ye Fan and Su Liuli were both stunned, this information was absolutely earth-shattering for them.

"Yes, six, one from each alliance," Master Yan nodded in confirmation.

"Master Yan, what’s really going on? How come we’ve never heard of this before?" Ye Fan asked in surprise.

"That’s because only a handful of people know about this,"

Master Yan unveiled the mystery, "These six individuals each come from the most mysterious and ancient cultivation families of the Six Major Alliances, yet to make their appearance in the world. Because these six represent the hopes of the Six Major Cultivation Families, or rather, the hope of the entire cultivation world!"

"Is it that exaggerated?"

Although Master Yan’s previous words had already shocked Ye Fan enough, hearing this statement shocked him once again.

He couldn’t imagine just how incredibly talented these six could be to represent the hope of the cultivation world!

"It does sound a bit exaggerated, but listen to me till the end, and you won’t think it’s exaggerated anymore."

Master Yan smiled and continued, "These six are considered the hope of the cultivation world for two reasons.

First, since the decline of the ancient cultivation world, no one has been able to break through that legendary realm.

However, some powerful cultivation families and sects have been constantly exploring its mysteries and trying repeatedly to break this curse.

After many years of trials and exploration, the six most mysterious and ancient families of the Six Major Alliances each selected their most outstanding heir based on their accumulated experience to train them in hopes of breaking the curse and helping them transcend that legendary realm!

Those six mysterious families have poured all possible resources into their chosen heirs, not rushing to increase their realm or strength, but instead, allowing them to cultivate each realm to perfection until they cannot suppress their realm any longer and then allowing them to break through.

It can be said that they have cultivated each realm flawlessly, able to truly dominate within their realm and easily challenge those of higher realms.

Moreover, each of them has cultivated an Ancient Heavenly Technique!"

"Ancient Heavenly Technique?"

Ye Fan couldn’t help but interrupt, this was the first time he had heard these three words.

"The Ancient Heavenly Technique refers to the cultivation techniques of the ancient cultivation world, and they are the most powerful, almost surpassing high-level techniques and, in ancient times, were known as Heavenly Techniques. In modern terms, they are called Ancient Heavenly Techniques,"

explained Master Yan, then glanced at Su Liuli, "For modern cultivators, whether it’s me, Xuanji, or even Chen Daozang, the techniques we’ve created are no match for the Ancient Heavenly Techniques, except for Bodhi Wuyin’s ’Bodhi Skill’ which is comparable, especially his technique ’Bodhi Tree,’ which is versatile, stunningly brilliant, and also why Bodhi Wuyin is hailed as the first in comprehension in his time."

"Master Yan, even if these six are the hope for that legendary realm’s breakthrough, it still doesn’t represent the hope of the cultivation world, does it?"

Upon hearing Master Yan mention Bodhi Wuyin, Su Liuli became slightly sorrowful, but amidst her sorrow, she also voiced her doubts.

"Correct, if it were just that, they would only be the hope of those six mysterious cultivation families, not the hope of the cultivation world. However, I only mentioned the first reason so far,"

said Master Yan with a bitter smile, "Before I tell the second reason, I’d like to ask you both a question—what is the greatest enemy of humans in the future?"

"Mutant beast."

Ye Fan and Su Liuli said in unison, giving the same answer.

"Exactly, mutant beasts!"

Yan nodded his head, then his smile faded, and his expression turned somewhat solemn, "Since the increase of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi on Earth, cultivation has prospered once again. Likewise, various wild animals have evolved into mutant beasts by absorbing the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi. Especially this time, the increase in Primordial Qi seems to have caused some subtle changes in the rules between Heaven and Earth. Cultivators cultivate faster and break through more easily, but at the same time, the strength of the mutant beasts is also rapidly increasing.

Although, at present, incidents of mutant beasts attacking humans are rare, as time goes by, such incidents will become more and more frequent until one day, mutant beasts become the greatest enemy of humans—humans will need to eliminate the mutant beasts to survive!

According to various sources, in the ancient cultivation world, there were mutant beasts whose strength was comparable to, actually stronger than, those who had broken through to the Legendary Realm. At the same realm, mutant beasts, with their powerful bodies, have even greater combat power, and only the most extraordinary cultivators could kill them!

In such a situation, to be on the safe side and take precautions, humans must have cultivators who break through to that legendary realm, thus those six became the hope of the Cultivation World and indeed all of humanity!"

"I see."

After listening to Yan’s narrative, Ye Fan suddenly understood, but since he had not yet reached that level of strength and was not in a high position like Yan, he was not as worried. Instead, he was somewhat puzzled and asked, "Master Yan, I remember you once told me that there could be ten people in this world who might break through to that legendary realm, including them?"

"Of course," Yan nodded.

"So, besides those six, only four others have hope?" Su Liuli was stunned.

Ye Fan was also astonished!

"Yes, according to my earlier predictions and judgments, apart from those six, you are one, Bodhi Wu Yin is one, Chen Daozang is one, and Xuanji is half—one, all other people together make half—that makes ten in total," Yan explained.

"What about you?" Ye Fan asked.

"I’m at most part of that half with others, or maybe I have no hope at all; otherwise, after all these years, I would have figured something out."

Yan gave a wry smile, then sighed again, "Not only me, but as of now, Bodhi Wu Yin has died in battle, Xuanji has almost lost all his cultivation, and Chen Daozang, having burned his essence of Gang Qi and Primordial Qi, has lost hope, leaving only seven of you."

As the words fell, Yan’s peripheral vision caught Su Liuli, and he slapped his forehead, saying, "I forgot this girl. This girl, having received the inheritance of Bodhi Wu Yin, must have extraordinary comprehension and determination; she also has hope."

This time, both Ye Fan and Su Liuli were silent.

They were quietly digesting the astonishing secrets revealed by Yan!

Seeing this, Yan did not disturb them, but instead directed his gaze toward the distant horizon, feeling a premonition of innate worries.

"When will they emerge?"

After a while, Ye Fan came back to his senses and asked.

"At the end-of-year Hidden God List competition."

Yan gave a response, then said, "You must defeat those six to be unmatched in your generation."

"Naturally."

Ye Fan nodded, then thought of something else and asked, "What if I accidentally kill them? Will I become a criminal of the Cultivation World?"

"No!"

Ye Fan’s confidence left Yan slightly taken aback, after which he smiled bitterly, "Although those six are seen as the hope of the Cultivation World and humanity, it doesn’t mean they can’t be killed. Contrarily, the six ancient mysterious Families have agreed that after those six emerge, they encourage competition and even combat amongst them."

"Uh..."

Both Ye Fan and Su Liuli were startled and blurted out, "Why?"

"A dragon is better than ten tigers; there can only be one Savior," Yan replied.

Then, looking at Ye Fan with expectation, he added, "As I have said before, compared to those six, I am more optimistic about you breaking the curse and advancing through that legendary realm, but your path will be the hardest."

"I know, having almost the entire world as my enemy," Ye Fan said with a self-deprecating smile, yet he was not afraid.

"Whether it’s because I promised your master or for the future of the Cultivation World and humanity, I won’t let anyone oppress you with their power or bully the weak."

Yan said, changing the tone of the conversation, "But...whether it’s a competition among peers or an older generation cultivator who’s one realm higher than you attacking you, I will not interfere."

"Because, your path is different, you need to carve out a path of blood on your own, and those enemies will be the best whetstones!"

"I will carve out a path of blood and reach the pinnacle!"

Ye Fan clenched his fists, filled with lofty ambitions.
