My Master Only Breaks Through on the Edge of Death

Just when Xu Fan was about to leave, a one-horned giant snake, a kilometer long, leaped out of the Hundred-Thousand-Li Giant Lake, causing thousands of waves to surge.

It happened to pass over Xu Fan and the other's heads.

Xu Fan looked at the one-horned giant snake with irritation.

Ever since the three Four-Clawed Golden Dragons left, this one-horned giant snake seemed to be thriving, as if a tiger was not home and a monkey was proclaiming itself king.

Seeing the abundance of Spiritual Qi, it absorbed it fiercely, as if it had never seen Spiritual Qi in its 800 lifetimes.

If Xu Fan hadn't discovered it in time, this one-horned giant snake would have exploded from the excess Spiritual Qi.

Especially during the month when the Five Elements Source Spirit Qi erupted, almost half of the Five Elements Source Spirit Qi was absorbed by this foolish snake.

Xu Fan watched the one-horned giant snake grow bigger and placed it in the Hundred-Thousand-Li Giant Lake to raise it.

As for the absorbed Spiritual Qi, it would precisely be delivered to him by Pu Tao.

The one-horned giant snake looked at Xu Fan pleasingly, wanting more of the Five Elements Source.

"The Five Elements Source within your body is already enough; digest it for a while first," Xu Fan said.

Upon hearing Xu Fan's words, the one-horned giant snake circled in the sky, deliberately revealing its white belly to Xu Fan to show that it had already digested it.

Xu Fan's face darkened, wondering what the relationship between digestion and the snake's belly was.

"Pu Tao, provide Little Snake with some Five Elements Source based on half the dose," Xu Fan instructed.

"Understood, Master."

At this moment, Xu Fan suddenly looked at the sky with a sense of unease.

After refining the ten Mahayana Stage puppets, Xu Fan always had a bad feeling.

"I always feel that something is wrong. I've already made these ten Mahayana Stage puppets, but there's still something making me feel uneasy," Xu Fan said, suddenly looking at the one-horned giant snake rolling around in the Hundred-Thousand-Li Giant Lake.

"You're not going to pull that 'finding the child' stunt on me twice, are you?" Xu Fan said, dumbfounded.

If the giant snake's mother or father were to come again, wouldn't that be the end?

Xu Fan thought about it and waved towards the one-horned giant snake.

Seeing Xu Fan beckoning it, the one-horned giant snake rushed towards Xu Fan joyfully.

A big snake face went directly above Xu Fan's head from the sky.

Now, the wisdom of the one-horned giant snake was already at the level of a five-year-old child.

Xu Fan felt as if his field of vision was filled with light, and then that big face.

Xu Fan gently stretched out a hand and placed it on the head of the one-horned giant snake, closing his eyes as if searching for something.

It took a long time before Xu Fan released his hand.

"It shouldn't be the parents of the Star-eating Snake," Xu Fan said.

He found the way their Star-eating Snake clan reproduced in the Inheritance Memory of the one-horned giant snake.

It meant finding an absolutely safe place, usually a small world separated from the outside world.

They would send eggs there, put some Spiritual Mine inside, and then leave them alone.

In the future, the parents would not come back to see their children.

Xu Fan looked at the sky, puzzled, and said, "Where did my sense of danger and crisis come from then?"

Looking at the one-horned giant snake still frolicking around him, Xu Fan waved his hand, letting it go play on its own.

He then returned to the small courtyard, and began to ponder as he looked at the sky.

...

Han Feiyu, who had just come out of the Trial Small World, wiped the sweat off his forehead with a somewhat helpless expression.

He had thought that after advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage, he should be able to achieve a good result among the first-generation disciples.

But to his surprise, when he came back and tested, his ranking did not rise but fell a little.

"Feiyu Junior Brother, you've made a lot of progress recently," Shadow Sting appeared beside Han Feiyu.

"Still, I'm no match for Senior Brother Shadow Sting's one-hit kills." Han Feiyu looked at Shadow Sting, thinking that if his Master Wuji were here, they would definitely behead him together.

"In fact, you're already very strong, and I'm no match for you in a head-on battle," Shadow Sting said with a smile.

"Losing is losing, there's no need for so many explanations," Han Feiyu shook his head and said.

He had quite a few good things on him, but he didn't dare to use them. Otherwise, if he were to refine all those things into magical treasures, he wouldn't be afraid of anyone of the same level.

"This is what I appreciate about you, Feiyu Junior Brother. How about we team up?" Shadow Sting said with a smile.

"Team up? Why should we team up?" Han Feiyu was puzzled.

"Recently, the Sect Affairs Hall has released many missions with exceptionally high points."

"I've checked, and those missions are impossible for a single person to complete. But with Feiyu Junior Brother and me teaming up, we should be able to complete eighty percent of those missions."

"When we encounter enemies in the future, with you in the open and me in the shadows, our cooperation will be absolutely seamless." Shadow Sting said with a squint.

Han Feiyu looked at Shadow Sting squinting, and based on his many years of experience, Shadow Sting had other purposes as well.

"Shadow Sting Senior Brother, you're not just looking for me to team up for missions, are you?" Han Feiyu said.

"Haha, you caught me," Shadow Sting laughed.

"Your deeds have spread within the sect, and you must have a lot of experience from living outside for so many years."

"So, I want to team up with you to go out and experience the Hidden Spirit Sect trials," Shadow Sting said somewhat sheepishly.

"Can't Shadow Sting Senior Brother go out alone?" Han Feiyu asked with confusion.

"It's not fun going out alone. There's no one to talk to while on the road," Shadow Sting said.

"Shadow Sting Senior Brother, let me think about it, and I'll give you my answer in a while," Han Feiyu said after some thought.

Since his good buddy Sword Wuji was taken away by his second master, Han Feiyu had indeed been a little bored, and he was planning to take Iron Tower siblings out for a walk soon.

"Alright, I'll wait for your good news, Junior Brother." After saying that, Shadow Sting bid farewell and turned into a cloud of black mist, disappearing from sight.

Little Sword Edge was the name Wang Xiangchi gave to the mountain peak where they were located.

At this moment, the two master and disciple were enjoying tea together.

"Master, why are you frowning?" Han Feiyu asked.

"It's about cultivation, don't worry about me," Wang Xiangchi laughed and said.

In fact, he had just been beaten up by his dad, but could he tell that?

"Master, do you think that if someone has endless spirit stones, endless spirit ores, and spirit medicines, he could become the strongest among the younger generation?" Han Feiyu asked.

"Of course, as long as you have the strength to own these things and can quickly become powerful before others find out," Wang Xiangchi responded without hesitation.

"But, it depends on whose hands these things are in. For example, in my hands, I wouldn't be able to use them for long before others would discover them and then be captured by those evil cultivators who would take all my things."

"For example, in your hands, even if you have excellent things, you won't use them until your strength matches theirs, let alone having endless spirit stones, spirit medicines, and spirit ores," Wang Xiangchi said with a smile.

Hearing this, Han Feiyu was suddenly shocked. For a moment, he felt as if he had been seen through.

"But if you switch to someone else, it's different. For example, if these things are in the hands of your Master Ancestor, as long as he hides and develops himself for a while, when he reappears, no one in the Cultivation World would be able to defeat him."

"Unfortunately, your Master Ancestor doesn't have them, so he can only accumulate slowly," Wang Xiangchi said.
