My Master Only Breaks Through on the Edge of Death - Chapter 523
Chapter 523: Chapter 496: Vast Void Domain Depths
“It’s good to have you back,” Xu Fan said, looking at Su Rentian. “Elder Su, did everything go smoothly?”
“Thank you for your concern, Great Master. The Elders Association headquarters has returned my late father’s belongings to me, intact,” Su Rentian replied.
She hadn’t really cared about those things before, but after having her son and understanding the mysteries of Krypton Gold, she was moved to retrieve them.
“That’s good,” Xu Fan nodded.
Even if things hadn’t gone smoothly, Xu Fan could do nothing but offer some consolation.
“Now that your family is here, it’s time for us to set off.”
At the Human Clan’s Starry Pathway, Xu Fan waved goodbye to Shan Chen at the Starship Docking Area.
“Master, I didn’t expect the Demon Clan Giant Beast Warship to be transformed so quickly,” Li Xingci said as she looked around.
“We added some manpower along the way, so the process was faster,” Xu Fan replied with a smile, his mood uplifted by seeing his long-lost disciple.
“How are things going at the Elder Council?” Xu Fan asked.
“Not bad. They really want Chu Fan to join the council and have promised resources for promotion to Mahayana Esteemed One,” Li Xingci answered.
“Haha, I didn’t expect our Chu Fan to be so tempting,” Xu Fan laughed.
“They’re just after the Immortal Tools in my body, which will be more useful after reaching the Mahayana stage,” Li Chufan said indignantly.
At first, he was thrilled when the Elders Association approached him, thinking that they noticed his excellence in combat. Although he wouldn’t accept their offer, he still considered it an honor.
But in the end, they only wanted the Immortal Tools inside him and were not very interested in his combat power.
“It seems Chu Fan isn’t completely clueless,” Xu Fan chuckled.
The Snake Spirit Number had traveled beyond the Human Clan’s Navigational Channel and was heading deeper into the Vast Void Domain.
At this moment, its speed slowed down, as more and more Spirit Mine Stars appeared along the way.
Bao Yan Spirit Copper, Shui Xuan Crystal Stone, Millennium Meteorite Iron, and Red Gold Sand.
The Snake Spirit Number had collected many spirit mines for refining Treasure Artifacts during the journey.
“How come there are only Treasure Artifact level spirit mines? Where are the Dao Artifact level Spirit Mine Stars?” Zhan Ling complained while controlling the flying claws.
Just then, Pu Tao’s voice rang out.
“Master, I detected a Vast Void Giant Beast ahead, the same one you encountered earlier.”
“Oh wow, what a coincidence,” Xu Fan exclaimed in surprise.
“How about it? Shall we fight it?” Zhan Ling asked excitedly.
“Forget it, let’s take a detour. Our shells aren’t powerful enough to hurt this thing,” Xu Fan waved his hand dismissively.
“What a pity. I wonder when we can kill it? This thing is worth a lot of Spirit Stones,” Zhan Ling said.
“Let’s wait and see. We’ll talk about it when I’m able to refine Immortal Tools,” Xu Fan replied, knowing that it was not something they could handle right now.
“Can’t the Great Master’s Illusion Arts control it?” Zhan Ling suddenly asked.
“I don’t want to be backfired and die,” Xu Fan replied casually.
“Is it really that serious?” Zhan Ling asked, somewhat embarrassed.
“Our sect’s Scripture Pavilion has a record of the Elders Association’s hunting of Vast Void Beasts. Elder Zhan Ling, you may be interested in taking a look,” Xu Fan suggested.
Back then, the Elders Association lost two Mahayana Esteemed Ones who specialized in Illusion Arts in pursuit of this idea.
“I’ll check it out if I have the chance.”
Zhan Ling steered the starship around, and it was currently eating away at a massive Spirit Mine Star in the Vast Void Domain when it suddenly glanced in the direction of the Snake Spirit Number.
Its dessert had unexpectedly flown away.
As the Snake Spirit Number sailed onward, it arrived at the edge of a barrier teeming with huge shattered rocks.
“If we pass through the debris zone, we will reach the depths of the Vast Void Domain, where we’ll find more dangers like time-space tempests, frozen ice spirits, and Starfire,” said Zhan Ling, looking at the giant rock barrier.
“Let’s go in. The Snake Spirit Number has been prepared for this, so we can avoid those dangers effectively as long as we don’t exceed our speed limits,” said Xu Fan.
“The data you gave me said that as long as we don’t reach the third speed limit, we can avoid these disasters. Although I trust the Great Master, is this data really accurate?” asked Zhan Ling, feeling a bit uneasy.
“Pu Tao, activate the second-level navigation mode,” said Xu Fan.
“Understood.”
The appearance of the Snake Spirit Number began to change, transforming from a shiny black surface to one covered in snake-eye detection lenses.
A shadow appeared in front of Zhan Ling, and in the middle of it was the Snake Spirit Number.
“You mentioned earlier that those disasters can be detected in advance.”
Xu Fan pointed at the red area on the virtual shadow and said, “Here, we have Starfire. Just don’t crash into it.”
Zhan Ling calculated the distance and felt like he could avoid it even with his eyes closed.
“In the future, when you need to activate any functions, Pu Tao’s avatar on Snake Spirit Number will inform you in advance. So just drive with peace of mind,” said Xu Fan with a smile.
“With the Snake Spirit Number’s power, we can mine in the Vast Void Domain from now on,” said Zhan Ling, excited.
He quickly controlled the starship to shuttle back and forth through the giant stone barrier zone.
Three days later, the Snake Spirit Number finally passed through the giant stone barrier zone deep within the Vast Void Domain.
It felt like entering another part of the starry sky.
“Is this the scenery deep within the Vast Void Domain?” Zhan Ling asked, looking at the distant stars.
“I’ve heard that the Artifact Refining Grandmaster can refine the Three-legged Golden Crow Divine Fire here. I wonder if it’s true,” said Xu Fan curiously.
“It should be true. When the Golden Crow Divine Day shines here, one should be able to capture a trace of the origin of the Golden Crow Divine Fire,” said Zhan Ling, who had seen a similar record in the Demon Sect.
“Master, there is a Dao Artifact-level Spirit Mine Star thirty million miles away from the Snake Spirit Number,” said Pu Tao’s voice, immediately energizing the two people.
“Let’s go!” Without a second thought, Zhan Ling controlled the Snake Spirit Number to fly towards the location marked by Pu Tao.
“Starfire Iron, not bad. After we return, we can forge a batch of Nascent Soul Stage Puppets,” said Xu Fan with a smile, not expecting to find something as soon as they entered the depths of the Vast Void Domain.
“Honored One of the Thousand Spirit Sect was right; the depths of the Vast Void Domain indeed have good things,” said Zhan Ling excitedly.
“Higher rewards come with higher risks,” said Xu Fan, looking at the detection screen.
At this moment, the screen was filled with multicolored dots, each representing a different disaster.
“True indeed. If our detection capabilities weren’t strong, we wouldn’t last long here before being completely destroyed by the disasters,” said Zhan Ling with a sigh.
As the claw mechanism shot out, it accurately grabbed the hundred-zhang-diameter Spirit Mine Star containing Starfire Iron.
The iron chain contracted and easily put the little guy into the melting furnace.
“That’s a good start. Let’s keep mining and see if there are any surprises.”
