Chapter Fifty: Yang City

  <>

  In the valley, Xiao Fan stood under the waterfall, his right fist bursting out, and suddenly a series of loud explosions sounded, the water of the waterfall was hit by his powerful force into a spinning water column flying far away.

  Xiao Fan withdrew his fist and stood up, saying in a low voice: "Based solely on the physical strength of this punch, it should have already reached 100,000 kilograms of power. In other words, my strength has surpassed that of an ordinary cultivator at the peak of the Tempering Body Realm by ten times. The inheritance given to me by San Jue mentioned that for ordinary cultivators, reaching a strength of 10,000 kilograms at the peak of the Tempering Body Realm is already the limit. However, there are special physiques that can continuously surpass this limit and reach a strength of 100,000 kilograms. This 100,000-kilogram strength is recognized as the ultimate limit of the Tempering Body Realm in the world. To break through physical strength again, one must break through to the Transcending Mortality Realm with their cultivation and use yuan force to temper their body before they can make another breakthrough."

  The three-month trial of the Three Absolutes was to temper Xiao Fan's physical body, making his physical strength constantly break through the limits, and now it has reached a strength of 100,000 jin.

  "Now, I have cultivated a strand of yuan force, and it's the highest quality chaotic force, the mother of all things. With this to temper my physical body, my physical strength can break through again." Xiao Fan thought to himself.

  "Next I will stay for another three months to temper my body and cultivate myself. After three months, it's almost time to leave."

  Next, Xiao Fan sat in meditation every day, circulating the "Hunyuan Sacred Heart Technique" and "Intention Sword Body" to temper his physical body, causing his physical body to be constantly tempered, and his strength also broke through the limit of 100,000 catties.

  Two months later, under the waterfall, Xiao Fan punched out with a loud "boom" sound, and the explosive sound kept ringing out. The rainwater formed a dragon that was blown forward, flying tens of meters before falling down.

  Xiao Fan's fists flew out one after another, with a water dragon following the trajectory of his punches. Along with the explosive sounds, there were also thunderclaps and the roars of tigers and leopards echoing within Xiao Fan's body.

  "'Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound' is a realm that can only be achieved by practitioners who have refined their physical body to the point of purity and emptiness."

  Xiao Fan's skeleton was crystal clear, his flesh and blood radiated a divine light, as if he had the skin of an immortal and the bones of jade. This was the result of Xiao Fan's cultivation over the past two months.

  "Under the effect of this first strand of Yuan Force, my physical strength has increased by at least 30,000 jin." Xiao Fan's mouth curled up into a smile.

  "It's just that my body has only cultivated the first strand of primordial energy, and for these two months, I've been constantly absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to cultivate it, but I still can't satiate this first strand of chaotic primordial energy. This 'Pre-Heaven Chaotic Sacred Body' is indeed a bottomless pit."

  Xiao Fan sighed, the yuan force he cultivated was the Chaotic Yuan Force, the source of all things, and its level was the highest. Relying on the powerful method of his cultivation technique, Xiao Fan plundered a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, but after converting it into higher-quality Chaotic Yuan Force, the quantity decreased. Moreover, the Primordial Chaotic Sacred Body was like a bottomless pit, capable of containing countless times more spiritual energy than ordinary cultivators at the same level. Xiao Fan needed to spend more time cultivating than others to break through.

  "It's time to leave, but before that, I'll refine the Jade Xiao first."

  Xiao Fan directly took out the jade flute from the Qian Kun ring, sat cross-legged, spat a mouthful of vital blood on it, and then began to refine the jade flute with the divine refining method.

  Xiao Fan was refining the Jade Xiao with the Divine Refining Technique, and at the same time, the Jade Xiao floating above his head suddenly changed into a long sword, sometimes it turned into a knife, and sometimes it transformed back into the Jade Xiao, constantly changing between these three forms.

  "It turned out that this jade flute was called the Wujie Jade Flute, and it could also transform between swords and knives, becoming the Wujie Sword and the Wujie Knife."

  Xiao Fan was overjoyed, this Wuji Jade Flute itself was a top-grade spiritual instrument that could transform between three forms, which was equivalent to having the three ultimate spiritual instruments of the Sword of Extremes.

  "The Qiankun Seal and the Wujie Jade Flute are both top-grade spiritual artifacts, I still can't easily show them to outsiders, otherwise, who knows what kind of fatal disaster might befall me."

  Xiao Fan thought about it at the same time, putting away the Wujixu Yu Xiao in his body. Then, he hid the Qiankun ring on his hand into his body. On his body, he still wore the storage bag given by Wang Da Shi, which contained a large box of flying knives and that door-sized heavy sword made of Xuan Tie, as well as some spare clothes.

  Xiao Fan wore a green robe and returned to the mountain cave, bowed three times in front of the portrait of San Jue Shang Ren, then put away the portrait, threw it into the Qian Kun ring, and floated away.

  …………

  Three days later, in the city of Yang, Xiao Fan wore a white robe, with a faint smile on his face, rubbed his belly and walked into an inn.

  "This young master is invited upstairs." As soon as Xiao Fan's foot entered the wine building, a small second came forward to greet him and took him to the second floor.

  After reaching the second floor, Xiao Fan chose a window seat and sat down, saying to the waiter: "First bring a good wine, then come with a few signature dishes." At the same time, he tossed a gold coin to the waiter.

  "This is the tip."

  "Alright, young master, please wait a moment, the good wine and dishes will be served immediately." The waiter was overjoyed to see Xiao Fan being so generous and treated him like an ancestor.

  Xiao Er Ge had been working at this wine house for seven or eight years, but it was the first time he met a customer as generous as Xiao Fang. The tip alone was a gold coin, which made him excited, you know, one gold coin is enough for his whole family to live on for two or three months.

  It wasn't that Xiao Fan was too generous, but rather because he only had gold coins in his storage bag and no silver or copper coins to give as change.

  When leaving Xuan Shan City, Fu Bo directly had someone give Xiao Fan a box of gold coins and a large stack of gold notes. Xiao Fan didn't know the exact amount, but Fu Bo had once said it was enough for him to squander for several years.

  At the rate at which Xiao Fan, this young master, spends money, it can be seen that Fu Bo gave Xiao Fan a lot of money.

  Under Xiao Fan's attack with a gold coin, the waiter immediately brought up the wine that Xiao Fan wanted, and soon brought up three or four dishes.

  Xiao Fan drank and ate while watching the people coming and going on the street, thinking to himself: "I still need to find someone to ask about the way to San Jue Men."

  The Three Extremes Gate, where the Three Extremes Upper Person is located, had once requested that the successor go to the Three Extremes Gate in the transmission information given to Xiao Fan, and obtain better resources for cultivation within the gate.

  Xiao Fan was bored anyway and didn't know where to go, so he decided to head directly to the San Jue Men to take a look.

  "Little Second, have you ever heard of the Three Extremes Gate?" Xiao Fang asked, calling Little Second over.

  "You can ask him now, young master. I happen to know about the Three Absolute Gate." Xiao Er's face immediately revealed a smug smile upon hearing this.

  "Alright." Xiao Fang smiled and handed another gold coin to the waiter: "Tell me what you know about San Jue Men."

  "Yes, thank you, young master, thank you." The shopkeeper took the gold coins and thanked him with a bow.

  "It's said that the Three Extremes Sect is not far from our Yang City, only a thousand miles away. If one has a precious horse that can travel a thousand miles in a day, they can reach it in just one day. And if it's a powerful cultivator flying through the air, they can even arrive at the Three Extremes Sect in just an instant."

  The Three Absolutes Gate is located in the east of Yang City. If you want to go, just exit the East Gate and walk straight along the main road, and you will see it.

  The Three Extremes Sect is a top-notch sect, with masters as numerous as clouds, all of whom are gods who can fly and escape. Countless people admire them and want to join the Three Extremes Sect, but the Three Extremes Sect only accepts disciples once every three years, and the conditions for accepting disciples are extremely harsh, so most people cannot enter the Three Extremes Sect.

  It's said that your luck is not bad, in another half year it will be the time for San Jue Men to recruit disciples once every three years. I think you are a rare talent, with a strong and handsome appearance, you must be able to enter San Jue Men."

  "Anything else?" Xiao Fan asked.

  "Please forgive me, young master. I don't know much and that's all I can think of." The little servant said with a somewhat embarrassed tone, rubbing his head.

  "It's all right, you can go now."

  Although Xiao Er didn't say much, he had already told Xiao Fan the most basic things that Xiao Fan wanted to know, and Xiao Fan wouldn't blame him.

  "Half a year later, I'll be taking in disciples? Looks like I've just coincidentally bumped into one, pretty good luck." Xiao Fan muttered to himself.

  "It's time to go buy some handy swords and weapons."

  Xiao Fan left Xuan Shan City with only a box of flying knives on him, aside from that he didn't have any other weapons. Now that he had the Qian Kun Ring which was more convenient than a storage bag, Xiao Fan planned to bring more weapons.

  "Little Second, where in the city can we buy good weapons?" Xiao Fan called Little Second over again.

  "Heh heh, I don't know if you want a magical artifact for cultivation or an ordinary weapon?" the shopkeeper asked.

  Xiao Fan heard this and slightly hesitated for a moment: "Tell me about the shops that sell magic treasures and ordinary weapons."

  "Yes." The shopkeeper said: "If you want to buy a treasure, you must go to the Treasure Appraisal Hall. The treasures in the Treasure Appraisal Hall are the best in the city, and the prices are fair, it is your best choice, young master."

  "Treasures Appraisal Hall?" Xiao Fan was slightly stunned, not expecting that there would be a Treasures Appraisal Hall within Yang City as well. This made him think of the little demon girl and Master Wang, but he didn't know what differences there were between Yang City's Treasures Appraisal Hall and Xuan Shan City's.

  "If you want ordinary weapons, you can go to Ah Niu's blacksmith shop. Everyone in the city praises Ah Niu's blacksmith shop for its good quality and fair prices." The little servant continued to say.

  "Alright, thank you, here's for the meal." Xiao Fang smiled and handed three gold coins to the waiter.

  "Sir, no need for so much, just one gold coin is enough." The shopkeeper saw this and hurriedly waved his hand, returning two of the gold coins to Xiao Fang.

  "Haha, no need, no need, consider the rest as my thanks for telling me that information." Xiao Fan laughed loudly and left, leaving Xiao Er standing there in a daze, muttering to himself: "In less than an hour, I've earned four gold coins, which is enough for me to start my own small business. That means... from now on, I can be my own boss..."

  The little brother seemed somewhat disbelieving, rubbing his eyes repeatedly before finally coming to his senses and running away.

  Since you have the capital to start your own business, why bother staying here as a waiter and suffer? After all, not every customer is as easy-going as Xiao Fan.

  At this moment, Xiao Fan had already gone to Ah Niu's blacksmith shop and naturally did not know that his action of not carrying any loose change would change the life of a small shop assistant.
