Supreme Emptiness

Jiang Fan was settled in a spacious independent courtyard.

A trip to the East Sea.

Not only did the cultivation break through to the Eighth Layer of Core Formation, but he unexpectedly obtained news of the remnant of an Ancient Giant.

Of course he remembered.

Previously, how many strong individuals from Taicang State swarmed in because of that Ancient Giant.

He also remembered Silver Fox Clan Chief Jiu Yinzhu once said, there was a Martial Artist at the Ninth Layer who found a half-dead Ancient Giant.

Brought it back to Qintian Bureau, and a month later, he became someone at the Nascent Soul Realm!

If his Life Changing Jade Disc remains unfilled for a long time.

This Ancient Giant would be his alternative.

But before that.

Let's work on improving strength for now.

Undying Blade had been cultivated to the Second Layer.

What followed was the eagerly anticipated "Brahma Saint True Spirit Technique."

With a thought, he appeared beside the giant egg of the Heavenly Thunder Stone.

"Ah, vampire... big brother, you've finally come."

The Rebellious Guy was overjoyed.

It had waited so long it was almost mouldy.

Finally, Jiang Fan came to find him.

Hmm?

Jiang Fan raised his eyebrows: "What did you just call me?"

Vampire!

What else could it be?

You little vampire, dead vampire, when I break the shell and emerge, I'll definitely do this and that to you.

Of course, these thoughts were just kept inside.

The mouth was sweet and innocent, pure.

"Big brother, of course."

"What else could it be?"

"Unless, big brother hopes I, like the ancients, see the eldest brother as a father and call you dad or something?"

What!

Jiang Fan shook slightly.

Did he provoke a "dad" nest today?

"Shut your mouth!"

Jiang Fan's face darkened.

The Rebellious Guy was older than the ancients.

"Is the Essence Blood prepared?"

The Rebellious Guy nodded repeatedly: "Uh-huh, already prepared for big brother."

The eggshell cracked.

A strand of Essence Blood and egg fluid flowed out.

Jiang Fan instinctively collected it, then held out his palm: "Like usual."

"Magical Treasure."

The Rebellious Guy hesitated a moment.

Then again cracked the eggshell, and a golden, palm-sized mini array-breaking hammer flew in front of Jiang Fan.

"Hammer? Used for screws?"

Jiang Fan was momentarily stunned.

The Rebellious Guy said: "It's an Array Breaking Hammer."

"Just find the core of the array and smash it hard, then the array will break open."

Oh?

Jiang Fan started to caress it, and asked: "How powerful is it?"

"For example, I have a friend who has a bronze array plate, the arrays it releases can trap Nascent Soul Realm for a little while."

"This hammer can break it?"

"Friend?"

The Rebellious Guy mumbled: "And I also have a friend who got caught and blackmailed for treasures."

Seeing Jiang Fan glaring at him, he coughed: "Uh-uh, yes, it can."

"But if it's a higher tier like an array that can trap Divinity Transformation, this hammer won't be effective."

Divinity Transformation?

That kind of legendary figure, he never dared to imagine.

An array that can trap Divinity Transformation, trap him?

Then the array would be like using a cannon to shoot a mosquito.

If trapped within such an array, he'd admit defeat.

"Very good, the item is great."

Jiang Fan nodded.

Then, in the Rebellious Guy's hopeful eyes, he retrieved a conch of Water Source Essence and tossed it to him.

"Next time, squeeze more out!"

"Being so stingy."

After speaking, he turned to leave.

The Rebellious Guy cracked the eggshell, bit the Water Source Essence, and began gnawing on it.

In a fierce tone: "Little vampire!"

"Still thinking of next time?"

"You don't know?"

"Once I've consumed this last strand of Water Source Essence, I'll be able to break open the shell!"

"By then, you'll be trembling in fear!"

"Hahaha!"

Jiang Fan sat cross-legged.

Looking at the strand of True Spirit Blood in his hand, he fell into contemplation.

"Take one more Essence Blood, and the first statue will be fully refined, making the Rebellious Guy's Essence Blood useless to me."

"Then, how should I deal with him?"

"He's sly, having at least eight hundred tricks, if released, might he bite me?"

"Should I just find an excuse and get rid of him?"

"Or sell him to Jiangshan First-class Building?"

Shaking his head.

Jiang Fan murmured: "Let's decide after obtaining the last Essence Blood."

He routinely diluted the strand of True Spirit Blood into a hundred bottles, consuming them one by one.

With the previous two rounds of tempering.

His body gained much resistance to True Spirit Blood.

Though it still hurt considerably.

It wasn't to the extent of causing immediate unconsciousness like the first time.

The next day.

As Jiang Fan formed hand seals, strands of golden lines gathered behind him.

Coalescing into a golden statue.

Jiang Fan's palms lightly moved, three pairs of arms moved in unison.

He nodded with satisfaction, then dispersed his cultivation power.

"Four palms can compete with Ninth Layer of Core Formation, six palms unquestionably match Ninth Layer Perfection."

"Moreover, my cultivation increased two layers since then."

"The power of this strike should be comparable to the Undying Blade."

"Unless someone like Concubine Yunxia, who had passed the tribulation and contains a trace of tribulation breath, might block it."

He glanced outside to check the time.

Jiang Fan stood up.

Preparing to say goodbye to the Yizhu Demon Emperor.

Leaving the guest hall shortly.

As passing a row of secret chambers.

He noticed the Yizhu Demon Emperor, dressed in a fresh and bright blue long dress.

Compared to yesterday's pink outfit, today's attire was more youthful and vibrant.

Just like a real young girl.

Jiang Fan was amused but helpless.

Dressing like this every day, who could tell if you're youthful or a mother?

Just as he was about to step forward to say farewell.

The Yizhu Demon Emperor seemingly didn't notice him, turned sideways into a secret chamber.

Activating the isolation array, to prevent outside disturbances.

Jiang Fan shrugged slightly.

"Knowing I was leaving, yet chose to seclude?"

"Not even a send-off?"

Shaking his head.

Jiang Fan headed towards the imperial palace exit.

He did not mind these things.

The Yizhu Demon Emperor was busy, always handling important affairs.

Besides, Jiang Fan never liked the feeling of farewell.

If not for courtesy, he wouldn't want to bid farewell either.

Leaving quietly wasn't bad.

Only.

Just out of the palace, he saw at the main entrance, a young silhouetted figure standing gracefully.

Pink long dress, hair cascading like a waterfall.

Tall and graceful stance, hands gently crossed in front.

She appeared elegant and noble, with an aura of grace.

She stood quietly at the palace gate, a light smile on her lips, watching Jiang Fan approach.

Hey?

Jiang Fan paused.

Wasn't...

Yizhu Demon Emperor had entered a secret chamber?

How was there another one in front?

And with different clothing.

"Could it be the Second Crown Prince again?"

"Smiling without speaking, absolutely certain!"

Jiang Fan's face darkened, this jerk, really enough.

Last time dressed as Yizhu Demon Emperor teased him, scared him half to death.

Trying again now?

Unyielding?

Still thinking of using some means, pushing him with Yizhu Demon Emperor?

Thinking this, he walked over with a stern face:

"What exactly are you thinking?"

Hey?

Yizhu Demon Emperor's smile froze.

Her eyes showed slight confusion.

She's sending Jiang Fan off, how did she get chastised?

Was the banquet last night not well hosted?

Or was her presence today somewhat untidy?

"Still acting dumb!"

Seeing her confused, Jiang Fan impatiently pinched in front:

"Take this off, really not ashamed..."

"Eh?"

Why...

Wasn't it supposed to be firm?
