Chapter 61: The Impact Begins to Show
Meanwhile, Xiao Fan returned home from the library, just as his father was opening the door to leave.
He was holding a bag, seemingly preparing to go to work.
Compared to before, the middle-aged man's complexion was much more haggard, and the fatigue in his eyes and the faint dark circles were almost unbelievable for a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Completion stage.
But to keep his son from worrying, he forced a smile.
"You're back, Xiao Fan."
"Dad, are you going to work?" Xiao Fan's tone was very calm.
It was like a casual question between neighbors, and there was a faint sense of distance in his voice.
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and his smile became somewhat forced.
"Yes." He nodded slightly, and then, still worried, he instructed, "I just made some food, remember to heat it up yourself."
Then he took out some spirit coins of not low denominations from the bag he was holding.
"Take this money, buy whatever you want to eat, or go out for a walk to relax."
"No need," Xiao Fan did not reach out. "Keep it for Brother first."
With that, he walked past the frozen middle-aged man, opened the door, and went inside.
Having just obtained the Cang Clan Battle Art, he couldn't wait to enter the trial space to try it out properly.
Bang!
The door closed.
The middle-aged man opened his mouth, but said nothing, putting the spirit coins back into his bag. Then he left with somewhat heavy steps, looking somewhat hunched from a distance.
But at this moment, Xiao Fan seemed unaware that his actions just now were inappropriate.
After entering the door, he ran directly to the bedroom and lay on the bed on his back.
【Name: Xiao Fan】
【Realm: Qi Refining Ninth Layer】
【Current Ranking: 1542】
【Can enter trial space】
1542.
Only five hundred people could advance in the second round. If he remained at his previous level in the next trial, he definitely wouldn't make it to the second round.
Unless he directly drew a Charm Cultivators.
But now, Xiao Fan showed a confident smile...
'Enter!'
He silently repeated in his mind.
Just as he felt his consciousness begin to blur and sink.
"Heaven gives all..."
He only managed to hear three words, and the rest was completely inaudible.
When he opened his eyes again, his vision was filled with that gray, indistinguishable trial space.
"Was there a sound just now?" Xiao Fan was a little confused.
After listening carefully for a while, he found that there was no sound in his ears.
An illusion?
Hmm, it should be an illusion.
Xiao Fan didn't think about it anymore.
"Setting, Qi Refining Ninth Layer Body Cultivator!"
In the previous round of trials, he was blown up by a Body Cultivator. Now he had to get his revenge.
Thump! Thump!
The appearance of the Body Cultivator was still very oppressive. The tall figure walking out of the gray mist quickly came before Xiao Fan.
【Enemy: Qi Refining Ninth Layer Body Cultivator, Ba Code getting Started, Shaking Mountain Fist Xiaocheng】
Xiao Fan stared at him, the boxing techniques demonstrated by the figure condensed from divine light flashing in his mind.
Thump!
The Body Cultivator's phantom took a step, raised his arm, and threw a punch!
The punch wind howled, coming fiercely, splitting mountains and cracking stones, no enemy dared to face it!
It was this punch that had directly stunned him before, blowing up his head in one go.
But now, Xiao Fan only felt an incomparable calmness in his heart.
He raised his left hand to block the incoming punch, and smoothly deflected the boundless force.
Slightly turning his body, he used his right elbow to strike upwards, hitting his side abdomen.
"Ah!!"
The Body Cultivator's phantom let out a tragic cry and was about to retreat.
But Xiao Fan didn't give him a chance, using his left hand to grip his wrist, twisting and pulling, not allowing him to break free.
At the same time, a powerful whip kick swept towards his chest.
Bang!
The Body Cultivator's phantom body trembled, and he was knocked down onto the ground, his chest unnaturally sunken, spitting out large mouthfuls of blood.
Everything happened in a flash.
When Xiao Fan saw the Body Cultivator dissolving into gray mist, his indifferent expression finally showed a hint of surprise.
He hadn't even used the spirit power amplification effect in the Xuan Tian Battle Art, yet he had easily defeated a Body Cultivator who could previously blow him up with one punch, just by relying on instinct.
It was truly too strong!
Xiao Fan excitedly clenched his fists!
And at this moment, in the outside world.
Above the sky, Huo looked down, his gaze seemingly able to penetrate everything.
From just now until now, Xiao Fan's series of actions had naturally fallen into his eyes.
This was not strange.
The initial manifestation of being affected by the Cang Clan Bloodline was exactly like this, and the person affected would not notice it until their thinking and behavior gradually changed.
What kind of person was Xiao Fan at the beginning?
Someone who, in order to save his Brother, was willing to take Broken Barrier Spirit Liquid to ruin his future, and after dropping out of school, immediately found a job to reduce the burden on his family.
When faced with opportunities, he could have easily taken them, but because he didn't want to take advantage, he returned them.
A person who was kind to the point of being somewhat foolish.
However, such a person changed so quickly under the influence of the Cang Clan Bloodline in just a few days.
"I hope you can realize it in time," Huo sighed, looking at the overjoyed Xiao Fan in the trial space.
Then he raised a hand and grabbed at that faint, almost imperceptible connection.
In an instant, it was as if the universe was turned upside down, and a strange fluctuation rippled layer upon layer.
A terrifying existence with an eye on its forehead and surrounded by a star river stepped out from ancient times, manifesting its form.
However, facing Huo's grab, that terrifying existence shattered without even lasting a moment.
But that faint connection was also withdrawn and disappeared.
Heaven gives all things to nourish man?
"Humph!"
With a cold snort, Huo turned and disappeared.
............
Almost everyone who passed the first round of trials was preparing for the second round.
After being killed dozens of times by the Enlightenment of Principles Sword Cultivator, Lin Qiuxian finally came to his senses and began to fight against other opponents.
He hadn't experienced battles in the Qi Training stage for many years and needed to quickly familiarize himself.
And Jiang Yujiu, in order to stably advance in the second round, also entered the trial space to temper herself.
Of course, the live stream was still on, and quite a few people were watching.
Those foreign Immortal Sect Disciples were also tempering themselves in the trial space.
Except for that unlucky Alchemist.
At the same time, Xiao Fan's boxing techniques gradually became proficient through repeated battles, each move and stance perfect.
He was also immersed in the power of the Xuan Tian Battle Art, and the feeling of having thousands of meridians and networks within his grasp made him unable to extricate himself.
Finally, there was Zhang Yunlu, who constantly fought against various types of cultivators, breaking through whatever techniques they used with a single sword strike.
The Flowing Cloud Swordplay that Xu Xing had taught her back then had now been completely integrated into her own style, becoming fierce, ruthless, and unstoppable.
Emm...
Perhaps the reason it became like this was because she had 'died' too many times?
............
Just like this, time quickly came to the eve of the second round of trials.
Xuanjian City Third Middle School, in a quiet room usually used by teachers for meditation.
Yu Ming sat in the center, while the other Celestial Transformation Stage cultivators surrounded him.
Besides the Principal, the Mayor, and the Hall Master of the Si Lv Hall, there were also two important figures – the Elder Fanxu from the Sword Sect, and Li Qingyang.
This made the already small quiet room even more crowded, but everyone didn't mind.
The trial incident was too big, and yet these Celestial Transformation Stage cultivators couldn't participate.
Yu Ming's expression was calm as he sat in meditation and adjusted his breathing.
