My Master Only Breaks Through on the Edge of Death

Xu Fan took a stroll by the lake, followed by Xu Gang and Tianjue Master Sui Ying.

“Sui Ying, don’t you want to visit the little world in the secret realm? Maybe it could bring some unexpected adventures.” Xu Fan asked with a smile.

“I prefer to stay by the Great Master’s side.” Sui Ying replied casually.

“Haha, I am the last person in the whole Sect who needs protection.” Xu Fan chuckled.

“Apart from slaying demons and improving my cultivation, everything else is unrelated to me.” said Sui Ying.

“Why are you so pessimistic at such a young age? There are so many interesting things in the cultivation world. Now you’re shutting yourself out and focusing solely on cultivation and revenge, this will lead you to no good eventually.” Xu Fan advised.

“In the world of cultivating immortality, there’s the tribulation of heart demon. If you’re too extreme, it’s easy to fall into an abyss with no return.”

“You’d better look on the bright side of things.” Xu Gang also added.

Once, Sui Ying served as Xu Gang’s guard during his duty at the Steel Great Wall, the two have a fairly good relationship.

“Thank you to the Great Elder and Peak Master for your concern.” Sui Ying nodded.

“It appears that you still need some time to pull yourself together, take it slow.”

Xu Fan was quite open-minded. In his view, as long as a person’s environment wasn’t too extreme, all the knots in their heart would gradually untie over time.

During Xu Fan’s leisurely stroll, with nothing else to do, he started to guide Sui Ying.

Ten thousand kilometers away from where Xu Fan was, a pair of streaks of light, one leading and the other following, roared towards Xu Fan’s direction.

This scene was just captured by the Heavenly Mechanism Weapon Satellite in the sky.

“Warning, two suspected Mahayana Demon Venerables are approaching in the direction of the Master.” Pu Tao warned.

“Demon Venerables, seems like my puppet at the Mahayana Stage is about to make a killing.” said Xu Fan nonchalantly, with a twinkle in his eye.

“Master, shall we take out one first?” Pu Tao suggested.

“Let’s wait and see, there’s yet to be a legitimate Mahayana Demon Venerable taking charge in Moon Fairy’s Thousand Beast Cage.”

“Let’s see if these two are suitable.” Xu Fan said.

A puppet at the Unification Stage appeared next to Xu Fan.

“You want to fight, Nascent Soul against Mahayana?” Xu Fan asked with a smile, looking at Sui Ying.

“The spirit stones and points I’ve saved up are enough to buy a second puppet at the Unification Stage. This time, I want to give it a try.” Sui Ying’s eyes flickered with motivation. He’d been undertaking missions for the Hidden Spirit Sect but never had the chance to encounter a Demon Venerable, so this time he wanted a try.

“Now that you’ve got money, you want to take a chance. Off you go!” Xu Fan waved him off with a chuckle.

“Thank you Great Elder for making it possible.”

Sui Ying bowed and then flew towards his spirit boat. His puppet control cabin was on the boat.

In no time, the puppet at the unification stage standing next to Xu Fan seemed to come alive. After saluting Xu Fan and Xu Gang, it turned into a sword light and flew off into the distance.

Xu Gang looked at the trail left by the sword puppet as it sped through the sky, a hint of admiration in his eyes.

“What are you envying so much?” Xu Fan asked, puzzled.

“Envious of his talent, to possess the fighting strength of Nascent Soul Stage in such a short time and now he is already on par with Demon Venerable.” Xu Gang said with envy.

“Who said he’s on par with Demon Venerable now?” Xu Fan looked at Xu Gang and replied.

“If he’s not on par, then why is the Master sending him?” Xu Gang asked, confused.

“Of course for cultivation. Sui Ying is still young and he’s unaware of the dangers in the world of cultivating immortality. So, I’m giving him a lesson to make him understand his actual strength.” Xu Fan replied.

“What was lost was nothing more than a Nascent Soul Stage Puppet,” Xu Fan said casually.

The sect could earn a significant amount of Spirit Stones by selling a Nascent Soul Stage Puppet, plus the lessons learned by the Hidden Spirit Sect’s number one Puppet Master. This deal was nothing but profitable.

“Master thinks of everything,” Xu Gang commented.

“This is nothing. Wait till I’ve refined the special Immortal Tool. Then you can undertake such training as well,” Xu Fan chuckled.

In his imagination, the immortal tools that guard the sect in the future must have one that can fully simulate a substitute immortal tool for his disciples and can go to some dangerous places for trials.

“Then, as a disciple on the cusp of achieving the God Transformation level, I’d like to experience the power of the monsters at the integration stage,” Xu Gang carefully voiced.

“Don’t just limit yourself to the Integration Stage. With that Immortal Tool, you can even fight the Demon Venerable; I won’t be one bit jittery,” Xu Fan said cheerfully.

Elsewhere, the Flash Thunder Demon Lord was trying to escape the relentless pursuit of the Wind and Thunder Demon Lord at his maximum speed.

“Wind Thunder, what I stole was not our clan’s sacred treasure, why are you chasing me down without respite?” Flash Thunder Demon Lord queried, trying to elude the relentless Wind Thunder Demon Lord behind him.

His tone was slightly frantic.

“Flash Thunder, even now, you haven’t realized the severity of what you’ve done.”

“Your status and the worth of what you stole are dismissive, but you defied all odds by secretly communicating with the Demon Venerable of the Bluebird Clan, and you even planned to help him steal our clan’s treasure.”

“If you come back with me now and if you can withstand the punishment of the Thunder Devour Heart, I can plead for you before our clan’s Great Supreme Elder.”

“Do you really think you can fly off together with that little wench once you join the Bluebird Clan?” Wind Thunder Demon Lord resentfully said.

“I fell in love with Qing’er when we were young, our clan initially agreed to it, why go back on your word now!”

“That’s why I harbor resentment!”

Flash Thunder Demon Lord’s resentment reached Wind Thunder Demon Lord’s ears.

At that moment, both the Demon Lords felt an unusual aura from afar.

A brilliantly dazzling sword light headed towards Flash Thunder Demon Venerable.

“Where did this little bugger come from? I don’t have time to play with you!”

A flash of lightning appeared out of thin air, directly piercing through the sword light and potentially crushing Sui Ying’s puppet.

“Boom~”

Sui Ying’s puppet exploded, creating a beautiful firework in the sky.

Flash Thunder Demon Lord and Wind Thunder Demon Lord didn’t even bother to look, they directly bypassed the bundle of fireworks still smoldering in the sky.

“What a magnitude!”

“Just that Demon Venerable’s casual attack has at least 1.3 times the combat power of Elder Zhan Ling without the Immortal Tool,” Xu Fan commented while looking at the Light Curtain.

“Master, should we block it with the railgun?” Xu Gang asked. He felt that his Master was playing with fire. If the two Demon Lords were to get close to them, wouldn’t that spell catastrophe?

“No need, I’m in a good mood today. I’ll let you see the combat power of our Sect’s first generation Mahayana Puppet. This could be its last outing.”

A dark-colored Puppet of the Mahayana stage, holding a giant staff, appeared beside Xu Fan.

Although it was less than ten feet tall, the crushing pressure it exuded was undeniable.

“Master, didn’t you say that the Mahayana puppet consumes too much?”

“Isn’t it a bit wasteful to use it?” Xu Gang queried from the side.

“In the phrase ‘a poor house with a rich road’, money shouldn’t be taken into account when you’re out having fun,” Xu Fan spoke out.

The Dark-Colored Puppet of the Mahayana stage, transformed into a dark shadow, slowly vanished from Xu Fan’s side.
