My Master Only Breaks Through on the Edge of Death

Chapter 316: 289: Ning Dao’s Second Dao Artifact Spiritual Sword

“No, this is something our Master gave me before we left.”

Three streaks of sword light flashed past, instantly piercing the eyebrows of three giant wolves, killing them on the spot.

“Howl

The remaining two giant wolves’ eyes began to fill with fear, and their tails covered their behinds. Staring at Li Xingci, they began to slowly back away, attempting to escape.

“@#%#@ #% ” An odd glint flashed in Li Xingci’s eyes as he made a strange sound.

At this moment, the previously frightened giant wolves began to gradually calm down.

“&%      #% Li Xingci continued to make strange sounds until the two wolves looked at them with friendly eyes, only then did he stop.

“Star Ci, are you sure you haven’t recovered your spiritual power?” Su Rentian looked at Li Xingci with confusion.

“No, these are just some tricks from the mortal world. They don’t require spiritual power, and can be utilized using special methods,” Li Xingci explained.

Some of these methods were taught to him by Xu Fan, while others were learned during his Hundred Lifetimes’ Reincarnation.

After the two giant wolves were controlled by Li Xingci’s hypnotic techniques, they became the duo’s mounts, heading towards the mountaintop.

On the way, Su Rentian looked at Li Xingci with admiration, gradually improving Li Xingci’s gloomy mood.

As the proverb goes, ‘you can’t judge a mountain’s height till you reach the top.’ Only when the sun was about to set did they arrive at the foot of the mountain.

Li Xingci used the nail cover that Xu Fan gave him to generate various tools, eventually setting up a simple campsite.

Looking at the unique starry sky, Su Rentian said, “It seems we really aren’t in the Cultivation World. There’s not a single star in the sky that corresponds to any in our world.”

Li Xingci was roasting the sheep-like beast that the giant wolves had caught earlier on a fire.

“We’ll definitely find a way out. Master once said, ‘Adversity leads to prosperity.’ So we won’t be stuck here forever.” Li Xingci said with a chuckle, casually handing the roasted meat to Su Rentian.

“There’s plenty of resources here, so we needn’t worry about food for the time being.”

Taking the roasted meat, Su Rentian curiously asked, “Star Ci, did you learn all these skills from your Master?”

“Not all of them. Some were learned during my Hundred Lifetimes! Reincarnation.” Li Xingci murmured, recalling the lifetime he spent alone in the wilderness.

In the firelight, Su Rentian looked at Li Xingci’s handsome and profound face and gently asked, “Star Ci, could you share some stories from your reincarnations?”

“Okay. Since we can’t travel now, I’ll tell you these stories.” Li Xingci said with a laugh.

“In my first life, I was born in……”

On Hidden Spirit Island, Xu Fan slowly opened his eyes, murmuring, “My foolish disciple has passed the first stage of his worldly tribulation.”

“Master, will Star Ci be able to safely get through this?” Xu Gang asked from behind Xu Fan.

“Of course, who do you think his Master is?” Xu Fan answered smugly.

“Master, will I face a tribulation too?” Xu Gang asked.

“Yes, in the future in the Great Thousand World, a giant demon will desire your Master’s treasure and will try to kill me to seize it. You’ll show up just as I’m on the brink of death, like a divine weapon falling from the sky.”

“You know you’re not a match for that giant demon. In the end, you used a secret method to perish together with the demon, just to let your master escape,” Xu Fan blabbered.

“My lifelong desire is to guard my master. If it’s like you said, then my death had value,” Xu Gang said, his tone indifferent, expressing satisfaction with his own end.

“What value is there in dying properly? Shouldn’t you be motivated by this story and strive to cultivate?”

“You don’t want a wife anymore, and you don’t care about your sons anymore.” Xu Fan cast a sidelong glance at his unambitious disciple. What a peculiar train of thought.

“Master, 1 have thought wrong,” Xu Gang was embarrassed. Yes, why didn’t he strive to improve his cultivation and annihilate the giant demon?

Xu Fan looked towards the direction of the Sky Demon Continent, wondering if the backup plan he prepared for Old Four could be used.

The space ring that changed into Li Xingci!s nail cover was not just a space ring. It was a universal tool that could transform into various forms.

This was crafted by Xu Fan specifically for an environment devoid of spiritual qi. His initial intention was to prevent himself from falling into a qi-less space one day while also providing for his disciples during their tribulation.

The most incredible part of this space ring was that it could use other energy sources to replace spiritual power to open the ring. Xu Fan had prepared a big survival package for them inside.

In the evening, just as Xu Fan was thinking of resting, a streak of sword light broke through the heaven’s boundary and appeared in Xu Fan’s small courtyard.

Ning Dao looked ragged, and there was a claw mark on his chest, so deep that the bone was visible.

Xu Fan came out of his room and, after seeing Ning Dao’s injury, handed him a sacred healing medicine.

“Brother Ning, you could have just found some time to come and get it. There was no need to be so hasty,” Xu Fan said.

Number One’s avatar had the Chamber of Commerce disciples deliver a Dao Artifact Spiritual Sword and a Demon Suppression Star. Upon receiving the artifact, Xu Fan sent a message to Ning Dao to come and receive the Dao Artifact Spiritual Sword.

“l feel like it’s already late. Great Master, quickly show me the spiritual sword.” Ning Dao said in a rush. He felt that his previous Dao Artifact Spiritual Sword should be retired, as it always seemed not powerful enough.

With a wave of Xu Fan’s hand, a Dao Artifact Spiritual Sword automatically floated in the air, emitting bits of sword noise, which itched Ning Dao’s heart.

“Forged from Ten-thousand-year Profound Iron, paired with the ‘Kill Gold

Break Rune Array with ‘Edge’ Immortal Script as the main theme, Brother

Ning, you will be the nightmare of the Demon Clan,” Xu Fan said with a laugh.

Ning Dao excitedly looked at the Dao Artifact Spiritual Sword floating in the sky and couldn’t help but emit his Sword Intent.

‘Clang

A Sword Dao shadow appeared behind Ning Dao, and the power of the Sword Dao emanated from Ning Dao.

At this moment, the ownerless Dao Artifact Spiritual Sword, as if called, directly aimed at the shadow behind Ning Dao and was eventually received into Ning Dao’s body.

“Haha, I made the Great Master laugh. Artifacts have spirits and cannot be mastered using conventional methods,” Ning Dao laughed.

So you seduced it? Xu Fan commented inwardly.

“Great Master, thank…

Ning Dao hadn’t finished speaking when Xu Fan stopped him.

“Brother Ning, don’t say such formalities. If you really can’t help it, just help me get a few more monkeys,” Xu Fan said with a laugh.

Now there are only two Five Spirit Monkeys that can fight normally, and it feels a little insufficient.

“Haha, isn’t it just a few Five Spirit Monkeys? Some appeared in the Jade Sea Immortal City a while ago. I’ll get them for the Great Master right away. Do you still only want those at the Void Cultivation level?” Ning Dao finished his sentence with a hearty laugh.

A few Five Spirit Monkeys in exchange for a Dao Artifact Spiritual Sword, what’s the difference with a freebie?

“Get a few more. I’ll take any Five Spirit Monkey that can be caught.”

Xu Fan said, pulling out a Fifth Order Treasure Artifact – a Traveling Palace and handing it to Ning Dao. Xu Fan knew that aside from his spiritual sword, Ning Dao didn’t have any decent magical treasures on him..
