My Master Only Breaks Through on the Edge of Death

Gazing at Pang Fu’s retreating figure, Xu Fan began to ponder what preparations he should make for entering the Floating Skyship.

“In half a month, I’ll be setting out with the Floating Skyship. It’s going to be a trip of three or four months. Shouldn’t I prepare something?” said Xu Fan, stroking his chin. A complete plan had already formed in his mind.

“Before leaving, I should complete the artifacts for my two disciples. If I’m away for half a year, that could be problematic.”

In the evening, dinner time started as Xu Yuexian served the last dish.

“Xu Gang, Yuexian, in half a month I will be going on a long trip, estimated to last for four months.

“Let me know in advance if you need anything,” Xu Fan said to the siblings.

“Master, can we come with you?” Xu Yuexian’s adorable little face wrinkled in reluctance.

“Exactly, this way we can take care of your daily life,” Xu Gang said, also unenthusiastically.

Ever since the siblings managed to control objects with their spirit power two years ago, they took over nearly all of the housework.

Serving tea, cooking, doing laundry, massaging shoulders.

Xu Fan had started enjoying his retirement in advance, with children on his side.

“I don’t have much of a choice, I can only go alone this time.” Xu Fan shrugged, if he had more slots, he would have loved to take the siblings on this journey as well.

Seeing the reluctance on the siblings’ faces, Xu Fan patted their heads. “You’ve both grown up, you can take care of yourselves.”

“Besides, Master will only be gone for a few months. It will pass in the blink of an eye. I’ll bring back gifts for you,” Xu Fan comforted, suddenly feeling a touch of reluctance himself.

“Then, Master, I need you to come back soon,” Xu Yuexian’s teary eyes begged.

“Alright.’

Five days later, Xu Fan handed over two artifacts to the Xu Gang siblings, summoning them to his side.

“Xu Gang, your Spirit Power Armor is in Treasure Pavilion No. 234. Remember to take it with you anytime you leave the sect.”

“Yuexian, yours is the same; the number is 235.” Then Xu Fan gave a Spirit Pearl to Xu Gang.

“This artifact is called the Storage Spirit Bead. It’s a plug-in, oh no, it’s a second Dantian that I’ve refined for you.”

“The spirit power in the Storage Spirit Bead is approximately ten times your own spirit power. Just remember to feed spirit power into it daily.”

After he finished, Xu Fan passed a short sword to Xu Yuexian.

“Yuexian, this is the Gold Series Armor-breaking Gold Sword. It can break the armor of anyone below the Nascent Soul stage, as long as you can get close enough.”

Compared to the Storage Spirit Bead, this Armor-breaking Sword required a lot more effort and resources from Xu Fan. Sometimes, he found that the simpler things were harder to refine brilliantly.

“Thank you, Master,” Xu Yuexian said, taking the Armor-breaking Gold Sword with gratitude. As a cultivator at the Qi Cultivation 4th level, she understood what this sword represented.

“What’s this thank you for? Now that I’m taking care of you, you’ll have to take care of me in the future,” Xu Fan said, smiling.

The Xu Gang siblings remained silent, simply giving Xu Fan a bow of gratitude.

Fifteen days later, it was time for Xu Fan to board the ship.

He methodically distributed the Two Strings of Five Elements Spirit Beads to his two disciples.

Seeing his crying disciples, Xu Fan felt like a father leaving home.

“Alright, you’re all grown up, no need to cry. Don’t let others laugh at you,” Xu Fan said, standing next to Pang Fu, who had come to see him off.

“We just can’t bear to leave you, Master,” the siblings truly didn’t want Xu Fan to leave.

“It’s not a final farewell. I’ll be back in four months, don’t be sad.’

Time was running out. Without lingering, Xu Fan immediately flew towards the Inner Sect in the sky.

“Elder Brother Pang, I entrust my two disciples to your care,” Xu Fan transmitted his voice.

“Rest assured, if anything happens to Master Xu’s disciple, blame me.” Pang Fu replied.

Xu Fan took one final look at his disciples, then turned and flew towards the sky.

Originally, Murong Qian’er wanted to bring the child over to bid farewell, but Xu Fan stopped her, saying that she should focus on caring for the baby at home.

In the sky, Xu Fan joined the daily crowd of disciples entering the Inner Sect as they flew towards the biggest cloud.

Once inside the cloud, Xu Fan saw the towering gate to heaven, and the giant flood dragons soliciting passengers at the entrance.

“8000 Spirit Stones for a dragon ride, and you’ll get a Memory Stone as a gift.

Rare opportunity folks, rare opportunity! !”

Accompanied by the dragon’s chant, thunderous voices rang out.

“You’re a young disciple, it’s your first time in the Inner Sect, right?” “They say riding a flood dragon will bring you great fortune.”

The flood dragon blocked Xu Fan, who was about to enter the giant gate.

Xu Fan looked at the huge tail that thwarted him and said in confusion to the flood dragon, “Senior, though I really want to patronize your business, I don’t have that many spirit stones.”

His face showed both desire and embarrassment, an expression which Xu Fan performed perfectly.

Only a fool would spend 8,000 spirit stones to ride on you. Having been controlled for too long, you’ve lost all sense of decency.

Disappointed, the flood dragon let Xu Fan go and started looking for another customer. Business was getting tougher lately, maybe it was time to launch a new project.

Upon showing his Floating Skyship Token to the gatekeeper, Xu Fan safely entered the Inner Sect. Looking up, he saw the massive Floating Skyship hovering in mid – air.

The giant ship hung in the sky, just like a continent floating in the air.

“One day, I’ll refine a giant treasure ship just like this one.” Xu Fan passionately declared, his ultimate goal being to create a spaceship that could leave the Great Thousand World.

With an excited heart, Xu Fan boarded the long-desired Floating Skyship.

Just then, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice appeared.

Upon hearing this voice, Xu Fan instantly felt as if he had fallen from heaven to hell.

“Junior Brother Xu, long time no see. You moved and didn’t tell me,” Ye Xiaoyao said joyously upon seeing Xu Fan. He had been carrying a bit of guilt for involving Xu Fan in the past incident, so seeing Xu Fan again felt like meeting a long-lost relative.

“Now I should call you Senior Ye. I didn’t expect Senior Ye to advance to the Golden Core Stage so quickly.”

At this moment, Xu Fan felt as if ten thousand wild horses had stampeded over his heart. Meeting this guy could only spell trouble.

Ye Xiaoyao put his arm around Xu Fan’s shoulder and said happily, “What

Senior or not Senior, we’re brothers, let’s not be so formal.”

Right now Xu Fan only had one thought: find a chance to disembark, he must find a chance to disembark.

Ye Xiaoyao directly led Xu Fan to the Patrol Chief.

“Eldest Brother, this is my brother. He has the ship pass.”

“Can you arrange for a nice room?” Ye Xiaoyao said to a cultivator dressed in crimson battle armor.

Xu Fan handed the token to the Patrol Chief as expected.

“That can be arranged. There’s a vacant room next to yours, your brother can stay there.”

After inspecting Xu Fan’s token, the Patrol Chief inscribed a rune inside the token and returned it to Xu Fan.

“Thanks, Eldest Brother, ” Ye Xiaoyao said satisfactorily.

He then took Xu Fan and walked away.

“Junior Brother Xu, I’ll show you around the Floating Skyship.”

“In the evening, the Floating Skyship will set off. There will be Spirit Food on board. We should have a good drink then.”

Darn it, can’t escape now, Xu Fan cursed inwardly..
