Chapter 847 - 403: Zhang Fan’s Power! The Strongest Human Xiao in History

Chapter 847: Chapter 403: Zhang Fan’s Power! The Strongest Human Xiao in History

Yu Xuanji, this heir of Sanqing Mountain, actually dared to enter Zhenwu with her own body, coming all this way from thousands of miles away.

News like this genuinely surprised Zhang Fan.

"She knew you would definitely come." Li Miaoyin was even calmer than Zhang Fan.

"But she still came."

"Then there are only two possibilities." Zhang Fan said in a low voice.

"Either she’s confident you can’t do anything to her, maybe that the current her can even firmly suppress you." Li Miaoyin picked up the thread.

"Or, there’s some reason in Zhenwu Mountain that she absolutely has to come for, something that makes her willing to shoulder enormous risk."

Zhang Fan said it as if it were only natural.

He and Li Miaoyin went back and forth, one line after another; the tacit understanding between them was extraordinary.

Ge Shuangxiu sat to the side, curled his lip, and suddenly felt that his presence here was just redundant.

"No matter what..." Zhang Fan’s gaze abruptly sank, a chill of murderous intent flashing through.

"Best if we can keep her here." Li Miaoyin followed.

"Keep her here forever." Zhang Fan added.

"Uh, how about this... you two keep talking, I’ll go back and rest."

As he spoke, Ge Shuangxiu stood up and walked toward the door. Just as he reached it, he abruptly stopped.

"Where the hell am I going back to? This is my room."

Ge Shuangxiu gave them a long-suffering look, turned around, and made a shooing gesture.

"Hahaha, Old Ge, you’re getting irritable."

Zhang Fan laughed, walked over, and pulled Ge Shuangxiu back to sit on the bed.

"Let me deal with your injuries."

"This damned thing is different from ordinary Thunder Skills." Ge Shuangxiu shook his head.

The Thunder that had invaded his body was almost tangled together with his Primordial Spirit, the two fusing so thoroughly it was nearly impossible to separate them.

Like cancer cells—if you tried to blast them with crude chemotherapy, you’d kill the healthy cells along with the bad ones and end up damaging the body.

"That’s still Li Changgeng’s third Divine Technique, after all." Zhang Fan said solemnly.

He had seen the might of the Thunder Essence Dharma Assembly. When unleashed at full force, it even surpassed his Samadhi True Flame. But what Ge Shuangxiu had taken was merely a Talisman condensed from that Technique; its power should be considerably weaker than the original.

Buzz...

The Spirit Platform at Zhang Fan’s brow subtly writhed. A thread of fine light seeped out, pure and white. His Primordial Spirit loomed faintly, coiled three inches deep within the Primordial Palace.

Almost at the same moment, Ge Shuangxiu’s sitting body suddenly shuddered. Strands of dark-violet lightning seeped out from his flesh, from his bones, from within his Primordial Spirit itself.

Those bolts of lightning boiled and roamed, like Evil Dragons crawling out of a deep abyss in the night, about to step into the Mortal World in search of prey.

Crackle... crackle...

At this moment, the lights in the room kept flickering; the voltage became wildly unstable.

Buzz...

Immediately after, those bolts of lightning seemed to find their target. One after another, they detached from Ge Shuangxiu’s body and rushed toward Zhang Fan’s Spirit Platform Essence Palace, toward Zhang Fan’s Primordial Spirit.

Rumble...

Suddenly, the barely visible Primordial Spirit of Zhang Fan moved its mouth and nose as if breathing in and out. One surging strand of Thunder after another was absorbed into his Primordial Spirit.

"Crack... crack..."

A bizarre chewing sound echoed through the quiet room. The chewed Thunder burst into illusory sparks, scattering wherever they pleased.

This scene, falling into the eyes of Ge Shuangxiu and Li Miaoyin, was indescribably strange.

"The Divine Demon Holy Embryo really deserves its place among the Nine Great Inner Elixir Methods." Ge Shuangxiu looked at Zhang Fan, his expression complicated.

This kind of Thunder—if it were anyone else, just a trace of contact would damage their flesh, shatter their Primordial Spirit, ruin their foundations, and destroy their Dao Practice.

Only Zhang Fan, who cultivated the Divine Demon Holy Embryo, could have his Primordial Spirit devour it directly without suffering the slightest harm.

"The Divine Demon Holy Embryo is the ultimate in probing the mysteries of the Primordial Spirit. Once achieved, all other Techniques shy away, and it’s almost indestructible." Li Miaoyin murmured softly.

Among the Nine Great Inner Elixir Methods, aside from the Ninth Method that has never appeared in the world, the other Eight Techniques all hold the supreme mysteries of Longevity.

The Divine Demon Holy Embryo and Three Corpses Illuminating Fate both delve into the Primordial Spirit.

Vacuum Refining Form and Five Elements Mistaken King both delve into the fleshly body.

Heaven and Earth Stealing Fortune and Ten Thousand Evils Tribulation Aspect both delve into Tribulation and fate.

Jia Sheng Gui Si and Great Fulit Earth both delve into life and death.

Since ancient times, if within a single lifetime someone could cultivate even one Supreme Pill Technique, they would inevitably be unmatched in that era.

What Zhang Fan cultivated as the Divine Demon Holy Embryo seemed different from all predecessors. Though he had only passed through the Great Night of Darkness once, it already counted as a small achievement.

Buzz...

All the Thunder completely dispersed. Zhang Fan’s Primordial Spirit fully returned to the Spirit Platform Essence Palace. He slowly opened his eyes; deep in his pupils, dark-violet luster flickered and vanished. In an instant, his aura carried a formless sense of pressure.

"Refining Thunder and Transforming Self—your Divine Demon Holy Embryo is growing more and more Xuanmiao." Li Miaoyin couldn’t help but sigh.

"This Pill Technique..." Zhang Fan started, then stopped.

Toward the Divine Demon Holy Embryo he was cultivating, he always had an indescribable, ineffable feeling—as if it were a bottomless abyss, hiding scenes he had yet to glimpse. Maybe that feeling had to do with the fact that he was cultivating Three Corpses Illuminating Fate alongside it.

"Old Ge, the hidden danger in your body is basically removed. There are still a few tiny remnants, but with your Cultivation they shouldn’t pose a problem." Zhang Fan looked at Ge Shuangxiu.

"All minor issues now." Ge Shuangxiu let out a long breath, feeling his whole body lighten a great deal; even the pressure bearing down on his Primordial Spirit had lessened by more than half.

In the days to come, he only needed to rest quietly, and his injuries would recover quickly.

"This time, thank—"

"We’re family; no need for polite words." Zhang Fan raised his hand, cutting off what Ge Shuangxiu wanted to say.

"Just rest well. We’ll head back first."

Zhang Fan called to Li Miaoyin and prepared to leave.

A flicker of doubt flashed through Ge Shuangxiu’s gaze. He looked at Zhang Fan, then at Li Miaoyin.
