Easy Way of Cultivation: Power Harvesting

Thinking back to the joke he made earlier, saying that if Wei Fan and Long Xueyi weren’t close, he would have been tempted by the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill, he felt a sudden chill.

If he really harbored greed for Wei Fan, he would meet the same fate as Blood Venerable.

"That great bell is even more terrifying than last time!"

Huo Tianzheng came chasing from the rear, and as soon as he appeared, he saw Blood Venerable being reduced to ashes with a single strike.

The Golden Bell had become even more extraordinary than last time, entwined with terrifying thunder everywhere.

Retracting his sight from the collapsed mountains in the distance, Wei Fan took the Great Leiyin Bell back into his body. He hadn’t miscalculated; the Great Leiyin Bell, created with tens of thousands of years of power, could indeed easily suppress and kill Martial Venerable powerhouses.

[Slay Blood Venerable, gain 20,000 years of ordinary power, 200 years of spirit soul power]

[Ordinary power: 63,000 years]

[Spirit soul power: 560 years]

Previously, he had spent over a thousand years of ordinary power to refine his body.

He found his assumptions slightly incorrect; theoretically, the physical body of a Divine Realm Martial Sect can indeed have unlimited enhancement, but without the enhancement of will power, once the body is tempered to a certain extent, the refining speed will significantly slow down.

Although he hadn’t refined it to the point of resisting the golden body of a Martial Venerable, his physique had become significantly stronger. Against previous opponents of twenty Divine Realm Martial Sects, he might not need to rely on the Profound Yellow Tripod to kill them all, only spending a bit more time.

With a glance at his panel, Wei Fan flew towards Long Jianying.

His expression was still one of shock, looking at Wei Fan with eyes that had changed.

Previously, he regarded Wei Fan more as an astonishingly impressive junior, but now he saw him as an equal, even with some respect.

That’s how the Jianghu is; strength commands respect.

Long Jianying felt a flood of words welling up inside, but ultimately asked nothing. The two quickly reunited with Huo Tianzheng.

Wei Fan cupped his fists and said, "Elder Huo, Commander, I won’t be returning. Please convey my farewell to Xueyi!"

He had the intention to leave.

It wasn’t because of disillusionment. Although Zhang Juzheng’s actions were disgusting this time, the Tongzhou Demon Suppression Bureau, Huo Tianzheng, and others all supported him.

Long Jianying frowned, "Are you still hiding? Even if those Martial Venerables come, with Huo Tianzheng now a Martial Venerable as well, and your great bell, there’s nothing to fear."

Previously, he had suggested Wei Fan kill a batch and then flee because he didn’t know Huo Tianzheng had become a Martial Venerable or that Wei Fan possessed such terrifying things.

With such power, it should be those who want to kill Wei Fan and seize the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill who should be running.

Huo Tianzheng nodded.

Wei Fan shook his head and said, "I’m not hiding. You two elders saw, I am now at Divine Realm Perfection. It won’t be long before I break through to the Martial Venerable realm. I wish to find a quiet place to peacefully break through. If I return to Su City, it likely won’t be peaceful."

Long Jianying and Huo Tianzheng’s eyelids twitched wildly. As impressive as they were, they only became Martial Venerables when their lifespans were nearly spent. From Wei Fan’s tone, it seemed he would break through to Martial Venerable in just one or two months.

Huo Tianzheng nodded, "Blood Venerable won’t be the only one coveting the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill. If you return to Su City, indeed it may cause endless trouble. It’s better to break through to Martial Venerable first before dealing with those blinded by greed."

This time, he killed too fiercely; behind many of those twenty Divine Realm Martial Sect members were Martial Venerables, and even places like the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold, which the Great Victory Dynasty dreaded. Those Martial Venerables might come to Su City. Whether they can deal with Wei Fan or not, they might delay his breakthrough to Martial Venerable, so it’s not a bad idea to hide for a while.

"Elder Huo, Commander, please extend my farewell!"

Without pausing, Wei Fan transformed into a stream of light and disappeared into the sky.

Huo Tianzheng and Long Jianying looked in the direction where he vanished, flying towards Eagle’s Woe Cliff.

"Keep the matter of that great bell a secret!"

"Do not announce Blood Venerable’s fall either!"

"When this boy breaks through to Martial Venerable, surprise everyone!"

As they flew, they exchanged ideas, quickly coming to a decision.

With Wei Fan’s potential, once he breaks through to Martial Venerable, it will be terrifying. If they reveal this, it will only scare those coveting Wei Fan.

After flying for a while, they quickly reached Eagle’s Woe Cliff, where all the spectators from before were still present.

Seeing only Long Jianying and Huo Tianzheng return, everyone was taken aback.

Long Xueyi flew over anxiously, "Grandfather, Grandmaster Huo, where is Wei Fan?"

Long Jianying showed a kind smile, "Don’t worry, Wei Fan is fine. You know the matter of the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill isn’t truly over. Blood Venerable was only the first, not the last. To avoid causing trouble in Su City, he left."

Long Xueyi sighed in relief, her delicate face still tense.

Huo Tianzheng sighed helplessly. Though he had wished to matchmake Wei Fan and Long Xueyi, believing only Wei Fan was worthy of her, it now seemed Long Xueyi couldn’t keep up with Wei Fan’s pace, nor did she have the capability to walk alongside him.

"Back to Su City!"

Long Jianying waved his hand, and a few flew towards Su City.

...

Capital City, Demon Suppression Bureau.

Zhang Juzheng suddenly felt his Garrison Commander waist token vibrating. He knew it meant someone was messaging him. Unhurriedly, he took it out, sank his heart spirit into the token, and a message appeared in his mind:

"My lord, subordinate Liu Jingxiang has a matter to report!"

The one sent to deliver messages in Su City, Liu Jingxiang, could it be that Wei Fan has appeared?

Zhang Juzheng’s mouth curled into a smile, he entered a message: "What’s the matter? Has Wei Fan not appeared yet, or has he already died?"

A mere Divine Realm, daring to offend himself, the Garrison Commander.

Initially, he and Wei Fan didn’t have much enmity, but due to the Prime Minister, he targeted Wei Fan and Su City.

Yet last time, when he sent people to handle Wei Fan, not only did they fail, but he also lost face.

A dignified Garrison Commander unable to handle a few Divine Realm individuals, forced to lower his head, how could Zhang Juzheng swallow this provocation? When the matter of the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill arose, he used his authority to send people to target Wei Fan in Su City again.

Without the Demon Suppression Bureau as backing, a simple Divine Realm Martial Sect should have been torn apart by those Jianghu people eyeing the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill.

"My lord, Wei Fan has appeared!"

Zhang Juzheng was taken aback, really appearing, he had heard long ago that this Wei Fan was audacious, disappearing only to return to court death.

"But Wei Fan did not die; he returned, killed all the Divine Realm Martial Sects coveting the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill by himself!"

"..."

Zhang Juzheng almost believed he received an incorrect message.

One man killed all the Divine Realm Martial Sects coveting the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill, is this a joke?

Even if some Divine Realm Martial Sects got tired of waiting and left, there should have been at least seven or eight Divine Realm Martial Sects in Su City; one person killing all seems like treating him as a fool?

However, he knew this kind of Communication Token message rarely went wrong.

Contemplating, Zhang Juzheng entered a message into the token: "Explain clearly, what do you mean by one person killed all the Divine Realm Martial Sects, and how many Divine Realm Martial Sects are in Su City."

The waist token vibrated, new information flooded his mind: "He killed all the Divine Realm Martial Sects by himself. Now, in Su City, aside from the Demon Suppression Bureau’s Commander, not a single Divine Realm Martial Sect is left; they were all killed by Wei Fan alone..."

Zhang Juzheng fell silent, finally understanding the underlying fear his confidant was conveying, which made the message so scattered and disordered.

Zhang Juzheng took a deep breath, entered another message: "Liu Jingxiang, calm down!"

After a brief pause came the response.

"My lord, have you ever seen Divine Realm Martial Sects get crushed like ants with ease? I have!"

"Twenty Divine Realms, Wei Fan appeared; first, he secretly assassinated some Divine Realms in the city eyeing the Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill, but even after his identity was exposed, there were still twenty Divine Realm Martial Sects."

"Twenty Divine Realm Martial Sects besieged him, with only one or two at Mid-Divine Realm, the rest all at Late Divine Realm and Divine Realm Perfection, with four or five at Divine Realm Perfection wielding High-Level Divine Soldiers!"

"Wei Fan held a Great Tripod refined from the Profound Yellow Stone, and just with a single strike, he swept away seven or eight Divine Realm Martial Sects. In the span of three or four breaths, the twenty Divine Realm Martial Sects couldn’t even flee and were all annihilated by him, leaving no bones behind..."
