"Oh."
Seeing that Wan Yuxuan had responded, Fang Chen felt much more at ease. After all, it was he who had asked her to hold back the black - robed man whose cultivation level was two minor realms higher than hers. Although life and death were fated, he still felt a bit guilty.
"Um, master? This formation should be able to hold for another two or three hours. Why don't you two continue to cultivate? It would be such a waste if you don't, right?" Seeing that the atmosphere had relaxed a lot, Lei Wa tugged at Fang Chen's trouser leg and said cautiously.
Hearing this, Fang Chen then noticed that the Xuan Qi around him was so thick. Looking around, he found that the formation set up by Lei Wa had not only used twelve high - grade Xuan crystals but also one top - grade Xuan crystal.
Looking at the timid Lei Wa, Fang Chen took a deep breath. Although it was indeed a bit of a waste, the situation had been urgent at that time. Besides, Lei Wa had done it for his own good. Thinking of this, he pretended not to care and chuckled as he said, "It's okay. They're just some Xuan crystals. Look how scared you are."
After saying that, Fang Chen sat down and looked at Wan Yuxuan. "Then let's cultivate for a while longer?"
Seeing that Fang Chen quickly sat down cross - legged and began to cultivate as soon as she nodded, Wan Yuxuan couldn't help but laugh. It's just a few Xuan crystals. Look how nervous you are. Then she also sat down cross - legged and continued to stabilize her cultivation.
The Wan family had a deep foundation and a Xuan crystal ore vein, so of course Wan Yuxuan wouldn't care about a few Xuan crystals. However, she didn't know that those who don't manage the household don't know the value of daily necessities. Fang Chen had a limited number of Xuan crystals on him. He didn't know how many places he would need these Xuan crystals to save his life in the future. If they were all wasted, and if they encountered a situation like the previous one again, Lei Wa could only hold the two of them and cry.
Calming his mind and feeling the situation inside his body, although his injuries hadn't completely healed, there was no problem with cultivation. So Fang Chen started to continuously draw Xuan Qi into his body, refine and compress it. Fortunately, the Xuan Qi around him was activated by high - grade and top - grade Xuan crystals. Coupled with the formation set up by Lei Wa, it was almost effortless to fill his Dantian with water - like Xuan Qi.
Seeing that the formation had begun to show signs of dissipating, Fang Chen withdrew from the cultivation state. The previous battle once again emerged in his mind. Although his consciousness hadn't been very clear at that time, he still remembered that wonderful state during the battle, the state of drawing the sword as elusive as an antelope hanging by its horns. It was so wonderful, as if everything was just right, neither too fast nor too slow, neither too far nor too near.
Fang Chen stood up, closed his eyes and let this state circulate in his mind. The Guiyuan Sword in his hand slowly thrust out, retracted, and slashed. However, that feeling was like it was right in front of him, but he just couldn't grasp it. After trying a few more times, he couldn't help but sigh slightly. Maybe the time wasn't right yet.
Putting away the Guiyuan Sword and looking at Wan Yuxuan, who was still sitting cross - legged on the ground cultivating, Fang Chen couldn't help but recall the scene of the black - robed man shattering Wan Yuxuan's long knife with one claw and that face full of strange patterns after the hood was shattered.
He called himself "Zun Ben", and judging from his combat experience, he should be a Saint - Zun Realm cultivator who was sent down to the Cangqing Continent. This also matched what Lei Wa had said before that the black bead was not from this world. But even in the Nine Heavens, he had never heard of anyone carving patterns on their face. Moreover, after he stabbed the convergence point of those patterns, the black - robed man seemed to be seriously injured. Strange. Who on earth was this black - robed man?
Thinking of this, Fang Chen suddenly remembered the exclamation of the weapon spirit before and couldn't help but ask, "Do you know the origin of this black - robed man?"
"Yes." The weapon spirit hesitated for a moment and then continued, "I know his origin very well, but I just can't remember. It should..."
"Okay." Before the weapon spirit could finish speaking, Fang Chen shook his head with a helpless smile. It seemed that the remaining wisp of the weapon spirit's soul was of the utmost importance.
Closing his eyes and taking a deep breath, by the time Fang Chen felt his mind had regained calm, Wan Yuxuan had just withdrawn from her cultivation.
"How was it?" Unexpectedly, after this battle, although Wan Yuxuan had been seriously injured, she had still broken through one level. It could be considered that a great disaster had led to a great blessing. Thinking of this, Fang Chen couldn't help but ask with a light smile.
"Um, not bad." Wan Yuxuan stood up, stretched her waist, replied, and then her hand that was subconsciously groping at her waist suddenly stopped. A look of gloom flashed across her face.
Seeing this, Fang Chen also couldn't help but sigh slightly. After stepping into the Xuanzong Realm and clarifying one's cultivation path, a weapon was like a cultivator's second life. Although Wan Yuxuan's previous long knife was only decent, it had been with her for so long after all. However, since she had been blessed by misfortune and advanced in her cultivation this time, as for the weapon, I will also help you take it one step further.
"Clang!" A cold light flashed, and it seemed that the temperature around had dropped a few degrees. Looking at the Feixing Knife, the Ye family's most precious treasure that he had exchanged with three - flavor initial god pills, Fang Chen couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion. Maybe this knife was destined to fall into your hands from the very beginning.
Looking at Wan Yuxuan, who was deeply attracted by the Feixing Knife, Fang Chen chuckled. "I'm giving it to you."
"Give... give it to me?" Wan Yuxuan stared blankly at Fang Chen. The Feixing Knife had always been what she had dreamed of. But as an opponent, how could the Ye family let it fall into her hands? Although this precious knife had later fallen into Fang Chen's hands, she had had several thoughts about it during that period. But as a companion, she really couldn't bring herself to ask for it. Unexpectedly...
"Take it. It's useless for me to keep it." Fang Chen said with a faint smile and handed the Feixing Knife to Wan Yuxuan.
"Thank... thank you. I will find an opportunity to repay you." Wan Yuxuan fondled the precious knife she had dreamed of back and forth in her hands and said seriously.
"This is a gift between companions, not an exchange." Fang Chen frowned and said with a bit of displeasure.
"Okay. I will also find an opportunity to give you a gift you need in the future."
Seeing that Wan Yuxuan's entire attention was on the Feixing Knife at this time, Fang Chen couldn't help but shake his head helplessly. Feeling that the formation set up by Lei Wa was about to dissipate, he turned to look in the direction of the Mangqing Battlefield and said, "Let's go. The Mangqing Battlefield will open soon. Get familiar with the Feixing Knife on the way."
"Okay."
After eliminating all the traces in the mountain depression, Fang Chen took a faint look at the place where they had fought before. The once - arrogant high - level experts sent by the Wang family had long had their flesh and blood devoured clean by the wild beasts in the mountain. At this time, only a ground of dry bones remained.
Seeing this, a cold look flashed in Fang Chen's eyes. The Wang family should be removed from Sifang City.
