My Master Only Breaks Through on the Edge of Death

“Elder Ming Xin, do you think the Hidden Spirit Sect will agree to my sparring with Senior Sister Xi’er?” the young girl asked, putting down her teacup.

“Your promotion to Saintess is of paramount importance to our sect. We can wait here for two reasons: first, because the cultivator Slicing Spirit is here.”

“Second, the Hidden Spirit Sect does have something to offer. I fear I won’t get any benefits if I simply coerce them.”

The old man took a sip of tea and slowly spoke, his eyes looking towards Hidden Spirit Island with a hint of caution.

“I just received news that the Great Elder of the Hidden Arrival Gate, who made the decision, has returned. I believe it won’t be long before I can meet Senior Sister Xi’er.” The young girl in the black dress smiled.

At this moment, a streak of blood-colored light crossed the sky and swiftly approached their direction.

“Slicing Spirit’s fellow cultivator is coming.” The old man laughed.

Hearing the old man’s words, the young girl quickly stood up, respectfully waiting for Slicing Spirit’s arrival.

“Welcome, fellow Slicing Spirit!” Elder Ming Xin said loudly.

“Ming Xin, you’re still the same as before, even more orthodox than the orthodox sects.” Slicing Spirit laughed heartily and sat down opposite Ming Xin venerable.

“It’s been many years since we last saw each other.”

“Looking at your condition, you must be living a good life.” Ming Xin venerable smiled.

“I’m doing alright.” Slicing Spirit nodded and then glanced at the young girl standing beside him.

“Are you the Saintess of this generation?” Slicing Spirit asked.

“I am a junior named Xi Yun. Greetings to my seniors.” The young girl greeted with a bow.

“Stand up, it’s not easy to come all this way.” Slicing Spirit laughed.

“Fellow Slicing Spirit, what did the Great Elder say?”

“When can we have the sparring match?” Ming Xin venerable inquired.

“The juniors you brought this time are formidable. I’m afraid my Great Elder’s granddaughter-in-law is no match.” Slicing Spirit began.

Hearing Slicing Spirit’s words, Ming Xin venerable did not respond, but merely looked at Slicing Spirit calmly.

What do the people over there intend to do about this matter?

“You’re lucky. The Great Elder wants to save face, so let’s just let this matter go. The integration ceremony can still be held with one fewer candidate Saintess.” Slicing Spirit chuckled.

“Save face?” Ming Xin venerable spoke indifferently, a trace of disdain flashing in his eyes.

He almost blurted out – by what right, whether it’s deserved or not?

Slicing Spirit looked at Ming Xin venerable’s expression and laughed. He waved his hand and placed four Avatar Jade Talismans on the table.

“This one is for Youming Venerable of the Elders Association.” Slicing Spirit pointed to a dark blue avatar jade talisman.

“This one is for the Thousand Spirit Sect Supreme Elder.” Slicing Spirit pointed to the green avatar jade talisman.

“And these two are for Yuan Yan Venerable’s Avatar Jade Talismans.” After he finished speaking, Slicing Spirit laughed and looked at Ming Xin venerable.

“Are you trying to tell me that your Great Elder wants to rely on these Avatar Jade Talismans and their backers to contend with my Demon Sect?” Ming Xin venerable stared solemnly at Slicing Spirit.

This is already considered a personal grudge. According to the unwritten rules between the Demon Sect and the Elders Association, the Elders Association has no right to intervene.

“Can’t you change your way of thinking? Do you know why our Great Elder can receive so many Avatar Jade Talismans?” Slicing Spirit rolled his eyes at Ming Xin venerable, his expression smug.

“Your Great Elder is the Thousand Spirit Sect Supreme Elder and Youming Venerable’s…”

Ming Xin venerable’s expression began to turn grave. He had known of the story between these two people before. If this were true, it would be necessary to save face.

Slicing Spirit hesitated before laughing.

If he hadn’t been in Hidden Spirit Sect for so many years, he would have thought in that direction too.

“Forget it, even if I tell you, you won’t guess. I’ll just make it clear.”

“Our Great Elder has touched the realm of Artifact Refining Grandmaster. With only the cultivation level of Integration Stage missing, he can officially advance to the rank of Artifact Refining Grandmaster.”

“Tell me, can this face be saved!” Slicing Spirit said firmly.

“A future Artifact Refining Grandmaster!” Ming Xin venerable exclaimed.

“The friendship of a future Artifact Refining Grandmaster. You can weigh it for yourself.” Slicing Spirit finished speaking and turned into a blood light, leaving.

“Elder Ming Xin, is this matter over?” The young girl whispered, a hint of unwillingness in her eyes.

“It’s basically over. Now let’s return to the sect and report this news to the Great Supreme Elder.”

“Xi’er, the sect will find a way to make up for the origin you lack.” Ming Xin venerable said as he walked towards the Xing Zhou.

On Hidden Spirit Island, Xu Fan, who was basking in the sun, received news that the starship of the Demon Sect had left.

“They’re quite decisive. It seems craftsmen never suffer anywhere.” Xu Fan smiled.

“Great Elder, your face is worth more than I imagined.”

Slicing Spirit’s voice came first before he arrived.

“Well, the bottom line is that our strength is weak. Otherwise, there would be no need for me to save face.” Xu Fan looked at the sky leisurely.

“Great Elder, our Hidden Spirit Sect has developed to such a scale in less than a thousand years.”

“Don’t belittle yourself.” Slicing Spirit said.

“There’s still a long way to go. I’m going to make the Hidden Spirit Sect last in the Great Thousand World.” Xu Fan said leisurely.

“I’m also looking forward to that day.” Slicing Spirit laughed.

“I’ve been out and about for a year, passing by several Immortal Cities and digging up a few Secret Realm Worlds. I’ve found quite a few good things.”

“If you hadn’t sent me a message asking me to come back, I think I’d still be wandering outside for a while.” Xu Fan laughed.

This time, the disciples and the Tianjue Masters who followed him out made a fortune. They plundered everything that was not very important in the discovered Secret Realm Worlds.

Plus, Xu Fan occasionally gave pointers to the disciples around him.

This made the disciples who didn’t sign up initially feel as sour as if they had eaten 10 lemons.

“It seems that the Great Elder will no longer be idle in the sect in the future.” Slicing Spirit laughed.

Now he can confirm one thing – Xu Fan used to stay in the sect because it was safer.

“Elder Slicing Spirit, how is your cultivation of the Divine Abilities coming along?” Xu Fan asked with a grin.

“It’s going well for now, and the cultivation is quite fast. It’s expected to be successful in two years or more.” Slicing Spirit replied.

“This time while I was outside, I collected many good items, among which I found a Five-Color Divine Stone.”

“The immortal tool refined with the Five-Color Divine Stone as its core will be perfect for you.”

“So, I thought, let you wait a few more years, and when the immortal tool is almost refined, you will undergo spiritual transformation again. At that time, I will directly seal the immortal tool inside you.”

“By the time you become a Mahayana Venerable, that immortal tool should be almost ready to serve you as you wish.” Xu Fan said.

“Great Elder, are you going to refine the immortal tool for me first?” Slicing Spirit asked excitedly.

“It’s just a coincidence that I found the Five-Color Divine Stone, which is so suitable for you, so of course, I’ll refine it for you first.” Xu Fan said indifferently.
