My Master Only Breaks Through on the Edge of Death

There is indeed some protection, said the Nascent Soul Stage cultivator.

If your sect were really destroyed by a demonic cultivator, our Elders Association would offer a bounty of all the spirit stones youve paid in taxes over the past ten years to whoever eliminates the demonic cultivator or force responsible.

So, they would certainly think twice before attempting to destroy your sect.

The Central Continent is much more peaceful now than it was thirty thousand years ago. Truly evil demonic cultivators dont dare to stir up trouble here.

Upon hearing this, Xu Fan felt a bit more reassured.

l understand, Xu Fan said, nodding his head.

Thats good, Elder Xu.

Now that the tax has been collected, I wont bother you any longer.

Take care.

The Nascent Soul cultivator then made to leave.

Senior, wait. Junior has one more question, Xu Fan hastily said, having waited so long for this discussion, he wanted to clarify everything.

The Nascent Soul cultivator, who had just left his seat, sat back down. He wasnt too busy, so he wouldnt mind engaging in a little chat.

Senior, we at Hidden Spirit Sect seek to become a hidden world sect. I wonder if the Elders Association would disclose information about our sect, Xu Fan inquired.

Last time, the swordsman known as Shi Zhan was able to find out about the Hidden Spirit Sect, most likely through the Elders Association.

Oh, you want to become a hidden world sect? Thats easily done. I just need to make a note of it here.

Once I report back to the Headquarters, our Elders Association will no longer disclose your sects information.

As for that green-robed swordsman last time, 1 assumed that your newly established sect would need such a person. Thats why I recommended him.

If he caused you trouble, then I apologize, the Nascent Soul cultivator said, performing a fist and palm salute.

Haha, youre making a mountain out of a molehill, senior.

After confirming his sect as a hidden world sect, Xu Fan watched as the Nascent Soul cultivator left.

The Elders Association, with its 56 Esteemed Ones theyve really made a killing from their protection fees.

A ten percent protection fee isnt entirely unreasonable, Xu Fan mused, stroking his chin.

Xu Fan felt that if a sect or force wanted to remain dominant and continually expand, it would inevitably run into trouble sooner rather than later.

Only by amassing a lot of power and then leaving other areas to serve as cradles of cultivation, letting a wave grow only to harvest it (not too excessively), can they ensure a long-lasting reign.

The Art of Harvesting Greens Xu Fan sighed. No matter which sect rises or falls, the one who benefits most will always be the Elders Association. The one who established it mustve been incredibly wise.

Master, what does harvesting greens mean? Xu Yuexian asked from the side.

Its a kind of vegetable that grows back after you cut it, Xu Fan simply explained.

Oh, I see.

Master, once were powerful enough, lets join the Elders Association and take our own cut of the greens, Xu Yuexian suggested.

Haha, by the time we reach such a point, well have ascended to the Grand World of Ten Thousand Immortals, Xu Fan chuckled. Fundamentally, the current state of the Central Continent owed much to the Elders Associations policies.

The Cultivation World had never been peaceful. Even when Xu Fan was part of the Heavenly Gate sect, he often heard of sects being exterminated and entire cities inhabitants being slaughtered by demonic cultivators.

Once we reach the Grand World of Ten Thousand Immortals, were going to create a platform for harvesting greens.

Xu Fan then stood up and headed towards the Refining Room. He still had three Gathering Spirit Beads left to refine, which were crucial components of the sects grand formation.

Master, theres something I want to discuss with you, Xu Yuexian quickly said.

What is it?

Its this Xu Yuexian took out the Communication Magical Weapon she bought when she first came to the Central Continent.bender

The signal here is so weak, can you make it stronger, Master? Xu Yuexian asks with a pitiful look.

If the signal is good, wont you go buying those flashy and useless things again? Xu Fan commented.

Thats not the case, Master, look!

Xu Yuexian waved her hand and a holographic image projected in mid-air, all filled with extremely gorgeous Magical Treasures used by female cultivators, especially the clothes, even Xu Fan had to praise their beauty.

These are all very powerful Magical Treasures, I want to buy a couple. Xu Yuexian said.

It seems that the Magical Treasures Ive been refining for you recently are a bit monotonous, dont worry, next time master will make your Magical Treasures look nicer. A trace of a smile flickered in Xu Fans eyes.

Master, youre the best Xu Yuexian instantly turned into a cute little flatterer, her expression extremely pleasing.

You just want to spend Spirit Stones, after I finish refining the gathering components for the Sects Grand Formation, then Ill help you with this. Xu Fan said.

Thank you, Master!

Ten days later, after Xu Fan finished refining thirty-six large Gathering Spirit Beads, he made a special trip to Linsen Immortal City to study the frequency of the signal.

To a typical Artifact Refiner, it would be very difficult to connect to a signal they didnt create themselves, but for Xu Fan, it was as simple as could be.

A day later, Xu Fan created a large Signal Amplifier using Spirit Iron he had collected from the bottom of the lake, significantly cutting costs.

After the Signal Amplifier was finished, Xu Fan browsed through the messages on it while he had nothing else to do. Although the speed of the signal was only at the level of 3G, its basic use was limited to sending news and showing advertisements.

Its not that fun.

Xu Fan briefly looked at it and quickly lost interest. He put down the Communication Magical Weapon in his hand and headed to the Secret Base on the Island.

At this point, the Secret Base underground had already expanded to over 10,000 square meters, and several production lines were in operation, especially the Spirit Power Armor production line. Here alone, there were more than a thousand Tool Puppets responsible for forging.

Ever since the first order for Spirit Power Armor was delivered, the subsequent orders came in like a tidal wave, directly pushing the production schedule back by three years. As a result, Xu Fan had to set up two more production lines.

He originally wanted to seize the momentum and roll out the Treasure Artifact Type 2 Spirit Power Armor, but Pang Fu stopped him, hinting that the profits to be made were too huge. If the Hidden Spirit Chamber of Commerce tried to swallow it all, there would be problems.

Not enough strength to back it up, huh. Makes sense, no matter what world youre in, the principles remain the same. while looking at the production line in front of him, Xu Fan murmured to himself,

Pu Tao, Xu Fan said.

Master, Im here, an electronic voice responded.

When can the Spirit Iron Cannon Shell production line be set up?

In half a year,

Alright, establish it along with the Sects Grand Formation. Xu Fan said. In a while, the defense system of his Hidden Spirit Island could be established.

Equipped with Treasure Artifact level shells, he wouldnt be scared even if a God Transformation cultivator came.

By the way, among these kids, are there any talents in Artifact Refining and Alchemy? Xu Fan asked. Pu Tao was monitoring the entire sect, so it was simple to find children with talents.

Moreover, the one hundred children were now in a semi-free state, apart from the mandatory Five Elements Secret, everything else was voluntary.

There are five disciples with Alchemy talent and three disciples with Artifact Refining talent, Pu Tao answered.

Good, these disciples will be personally taught by me, Xu Fan said.

Then Pu Tao added, Among the 100 disciples, there is one named Zhou Kailing who has the talent of a Creator Master.

l didnt expect such a pleasant surprise..
