Chapter 2587 A Stone, A Cultivation Technique
In the blink of an eye, seven days had passed.
During these seven days, under the care of Lin Feng and Xu Tong, Fan Xun was already able to get out of bed and walk, and his constitution was getting better and better. After learning that it was Lin Feng who had saved him, Fan Xun was endlessly grateful to the Song of Dividing Seasons.
Especially when Fan Xun learned that it was Fan Zhu’s bone marrow that had saved him, a mist rose in his eyes. He had never imagined such a result. The two brothers were now both men in dire straits. Though they didn’t break down crying in each other’s arms, the bond between them was slowly being repaired.
When there was nothing to do, Lin Feng would chat with the two of them, and time passed fairly quickly. The rest of the time Lin Feng was pestered by Xu Tong, who kept asking him about healing and medical arts. Lin Feng felt rather helpless about this, but these few days of recuperation did allow his Divine Sense to fully recover, and he seemed much more energetic.
As for the Great Elder, he had been sitting in one corner of the courtyard the whole time, like an old monk in meditation, not moving at all...
Seeing that Fan Yun had still not shown up, Lin Feng knew this matter was likely very troublesome. Not wanting to delay any further, he casually chose a room in the courtyard and began reconstructing Fan Zhu’s meridians. This was something he had promised earlier. With the aid of Elixirs, and with the process no longer needing to be continuous like before, the meridian reconstruction went very smoothly—only that the pain Fan Zhu had to endure was much greater.
In another blink, a month had passed. When the door opened, Fan Zhu’s face was glowing red with excitement. All the meridians in his body had been successfully reconstructed. Although they weren’t very wide yet and were still quite fragile, given time he would definitely be able to cultivate back to his original realm, or even surpass it!
"Lin Feng, for this rebirth grace, if you ever have need of me in the future, just say the word!" Fan Zhu looked at Lin Feng and spoke with utmost sincerity.
"It’s nothing. No need to take it to heart." Lin Feng waved his hand lightly. He actually didn’t care much about these promises. Once Fan Yun appeared and let him enter the Treasure Pavilion, that would be the real business. After wasting so much time and effort, wasn’t he doing all this for the treasures in the Treasure Pavilion!
"Fifth Brother, you can cultivate again!" At some unknown point, Fan Xun had also arrived at the doorway. At this moment, sensing the aura on Fan Zhu’s body, he shouted excitedly.
"Mm, in days to come we’ll cultivate together!" Seeing his Ninth Brother appear, Fan Zhu was overjoyed.
But just as they were speaking, the Great Elder suddenly opened his eyes. Immediately a streak of cold light flashed through the air, and Fan Yun reappeared here. Only, what made everyone deeply shocked was that Fan Yun actually had wounds on his body. For a moment they were all stunned. Who was Fan Yun? He was a Divine Venerable at the peak of the Myriad Laws Realm, the Tower Master of the Myriad Gods Tower. How could he be injured!
Yet while they were all still in a daze, Fan Yun glanced at Lin Feng, then raised his hand, grabbed Lin Feng, and rushed into Fan Zhu’s previous room. The door slammed shut right after, shutting everyone else outside.
At this moment, the people outside exchanged looks, none of them knowing what had happened. Only Song Cheng frowned, feeling more and more certain that something major, something earth-shaking, must have occurred—because he hadn’t seen the Tower Master wounded in countless years...
Inside the room, Lin Feng looked at the injured Tower Master, still not understanding why the Tower Master had suddenly dragged him in.
"Lin Feng, I trust your medical skills. Help me treat my injury..."
Looking at Lin Feng, Fan Yun said this, then lifted his sleeve. At once, Lin Feng saw that Fan Yun’s right arm was completely bluish-purple, with only the gash itself bleeding fresh blood. This situation greatly surprised Lin Feng, and he stared at Fan Yun with a puzzled gaze.
"Tower Master, this is...?"
Although he had just seen that Fan Yun was injured, he hadn’t expected the true wound to be like this. With Fan Yun’s strength, such an injury should have healed long ago, but it was still like this now. That could only mean the injury was extremely special—so special that Elixirs and Yuangang were unable to dissolve it. Otherwise, it wouldn’t look like this!
"This was caused by it!" Seeing Lin Feng staring at his wound, Fan Yun suddenly tossed a weapon from his Space Treasure onto the ground. The weapon was very small, about the length of a palm, but the blade was dark green, clearly coated with a potent toxin.
When Lin Feng saw this thing, he was stunned for an instant. A poison that even Fan Yun couldn’t escape—this was far from ordinary. He picked up the weapon and began studying it carefully. Suddenly recalling something, he directly used the Eternal Divine Flame to roast it.
Gradually, the weapon was heated until it was blazing red, and the poison tempered onto the blade actually transformed into wisps of black gas, which were ultimately incinerated completely by the Eternal Divine Flame and vanished.
"As expected, you can do it!"
Seeing this scene, Fan Yun let out a breath of relief. He had actually tried many methods before, but none of them worked. Later he thought of Lin Feng, and only then did he come to find Lin Feng to detoxify him. Now it seemed he had indeed made the right call—Lin Feng could remove the deadly poison in his body.
"The process is a bit painful, Tower Master, please endure it." Lin Feng glanced at Fan Yun and nodded, then immediately summoned the Eternal Divine Flame. It turned into countless fine threads of flame that drilled into Fan Yun’s right arm, cleansing the toxins within. Fan Yun’s right arm actually began to shine brilliantly, and before long, wisps of black mist appeared one after another. As soon as the black mist emerged, it was instantly wrapped by the Eternal Divine Flame and burned away into nothing in the blink of an eye.
After one shichen, no more black mist drifted out from Fan Yun’s right arm. Only then did Lin Feng retract the Eternal Divine Flame. By this time, Fan Yun’s entire body was drenched in sweat. Just now he had endured it purely by Willpower; his whole arm felt as if it were being roasted in blazing fire. If his Willpower had not been so strong, he probably wouldn’t have held out.
Fan Yun looked at Lin Feng and hesitated, as if he wanted to say something. But at this moment Lin Feng spoke first: "Tower Master, don’t say anything to me. You understand what I mean. Now the Young Master’s body has basically recovered, and as for Fifth Young Master’s meridians, I’ve already fully reshaped them. So I think I should be leaving here."
Lin Feng rushed to say this because he was afraid that if Fan Yun asked him to do anything else, he would end up wasting even more time here. Moreover, the matters here likely involved Fan Yun’s family affairs, and as an outsider he really wasn’t suited to interfere. So for him right now, leaving the Myriad Gods Tower was the most important thing.
"Very well."
Seeing that Lin Feng was determined to leave and had even guessed his intentions, Fan Yun could only sigh and say, "You saved my two sons. I will now take you to the Treasure Pavilion; you may choose two items, then leave this place. If fate allows, we will meet again in the future."
After saying this, Fan Yun took Lin Feng and rose into the air, flying upward. What Lin Feng had not expected was that the Treasure Pavilion of the Myriad Gods Tower was not on the ground, but in the sky!
After flying for quite a while, they suddenly seemed to enter a special space. Even Lin Feng did not sense how it happened. Within this space floated a very unique-looking pavilion. Under Fan Yun’s lead, the two of them entered the pavilion.
The pavilion was not large at all, only slightly bigger than a normal house. Converted to Earth’s measurements, it was less than three hundred square meters. But it was different from ordinary houses—there were no shelves inside. Every single treasure seemed to be covered by some kind of罩子, floating in midair like individual balloons.
Looking around, there weren’t many treasures in this large hall, only a few dozen, but they were all of different types. There was even a Cultivation Technique glowing with golden light...
"This is the Treasure Pavilion of the Myriad Gods Tower, accumulated over countless years by our tower." Fan Yun gave a brief introduction as he looked at Lin Feng, then said to him, "Go ahead and choose. Any single item here is enough to drive the outside world mad, even a Divine Venerable would be no exception. You saved my two sons; you deserve such a reward."
Lin Feng glanced at Fan Yun, then nodded and began to stroll around.
"What’s this?"
"The Enlightening Divine Plate, a defensive-type Dharma Treasure. Once activated, even a Divine Venerable Powerhouse cannot forcibly break through it for a period of time."
"What’s this?"
"The Wanhe Water Core, a water-attribute heaven-and-earth treasure. It can alter a person’s physique, allowing them to attain the legendary Water Source Divine Body; their Cultivation speed will be unimaginable."
"What’s this?"
...
As he walked along, whenever something interested him, Lin Feng would ask Fan Yun to explain. These items were indeed just as Chu Yun had said—they were all things that could never be seen outside. The grade of any single item was terrifyingly high. It could be said that there were many things here he wanted, but he could only take two, and this naturally left him rather torn.
After carefully weighing his options, Lin Feng finally chose two items. One was a very peculiar stone. In Fan Yun’s words, this stone possessed a very special property: even if Fan Yun, at the peak of the Myriad Laws Realm, struck it with full force, he still couldn’t damage it. Although even Fan Yun didn’t know what it was, there was no doubt this stone was absolutely extraordinary!
The second item Lin Feng chose was that Cultivation Technique glowing with golden light in midair. The technique was called the Unbounded Heartscroll, a very peculiar Cultivation Technique that did not restrict one’s own attributes. However, there was one regret: the Unbounded Heartscroll was incomplete, with a portion missing at the end. But even so, this Cultivation Technique was definitely among the very top tier.
The reason Lin Feng chose this Cultivation Technique was not for himself, but for Ding Wan’er and the others. With him around, this technique could be partially repaired, allowing Ding Wan’er and the rest to grow rapidly as well. Only by becoming strong could they accomplish more things. He did not expect the women to fight for him; he only wanted them to be able to protect themselves...
