At this moment, Xu Fan, the protagonist of all this, is completely unaware of the commotion among several parties.

Xu Fan is currently sitting cross-legged in the room, quietly cultivating.

Within the base, Xu Fan is most concerned not about himself, but about the Grey Wolf Team and Qin Fei! After all, although Xu Fan's current strength couldn't defeat Mu Lao's group of four, at least he already has a means to protect himself.

And now, Xu Fan has sent the Grey Wolf Team and Qin Fei to Jinling, inviting everyone to join Lingyan Pavilion.

Lingyan Pavilion was originally Xiao Lan's faction, but later Xiao Lan gifted Lingyan Pavilion to Xu Fan, hoping it would grow and thrive under Xu Fan's hands. Xu Fan did not disappoint Xiao Lan's expectations, as Lingyan Pavilion has gotten a whole new look!

Previously, although Lingyan Pavilion was a strong force, it mostly consisted of ordinary people. Now, with the addition of Qin Fei and the entire Grey Wolf Team, its strength has rapidly advanced!

For the first time, Xu Fan truly has his own faction!

Everything has been arranged properly, and Xu Fan silently returns to his lodging, sits down with his legs crossed, and closes his eyes to cultivate.

Xu Fan came to the base to serve as a coach for the Grey Wolf Team for a month, all for that spot Zhou Shi'nian spoke of! Xu Fan will not back down from the opportunity happening in three days!

However, while an ordinary person may only need to exert a little effort to easily seize such opportunities, Xu Fan must put in ten or even a hundred times the effort!

With the Dragons and Phoenixes families' intercepting, Mu Lao's group's menacing gaze, Luo family's malice, Lan family's unpredictability…

Even though Xu Fan's current strength has greatly improved, enough to rival a super power at the entry level of Zhiwei Realm, it still poses a significant challenge for Xu Fan.

Yet, Xu Fan still plans to go to this Dragon Pool and Tiger's Den!

Xu Fan's Spiritual Power cultivation is only at the Entering Dao Realm! His divine consciousness cultivation is shackled by his spiritual power, merely at the Kai Guang Realm! Facing such powerful opposition, Xu Fan still plans to go. If this news spreads, it would shock countless people!

Elder Niu helped Xu Fan once, but that was just a coincidence of interests. Xu Fan never relied on Elder Niu with hope!

Xu Fan's true confidence lies in his own strength!

In one month, Xu Fan not only comprehended many techniques of divine consciousness but also cultivated two Mysterious Rank battle techniques to near-perfect states! Allowing him to break free from the shackles of the Entering Dao Realm and rival Zhiwei Realm powerhouses!

What makes Xu Fan fearless is not his Golden Right Eye, nor his long-hidden trump cards like the Jade Silkworm, but the Rule Power!

A few days ago, when Xu Fan cultivated the two battle techniques to near-perfect realms, he suddenly saw tiny red lines appear before him!

These red lines intertwined intricately, without any pattern! And a little farther away, it was even more blurred!

But as long as Xu Fan follows the trajectory of the red lines and operates his cultivation technique, he can increase the power of his moves by several times!

The energy contained within was unlike anything Xu Fan had seen before! Incredibly terrifying! Xu Fan even has a feeling that if this energy is cultivated to its extreme, it could destroy the entire world!

This is the true reason Xu Fan can instantly defeat Zhiwei Realm powerhouses and survive under Mu Lao's group!

This is also the foundation of Xu Fan's strong confidence!

Once the Rule Power becomes strong, or the red lines before him become clear enough, the energy Xu Fan releases will be immeasurable!

In the silent room, Xu Fan follows the red-line rule, gently guiding his internal spiritual power, and the shackles of the Entering Dao Realm are clearly visible. With just a thought, Xu Fan could easily destroy this fragile shackle and become a Vajra Realm powerhouse!

However, Xu Fan ignores the shackles before him, repeatedly controlling the spiritual power to slowly move along, and the fine red lines in front of him gradually become clearer and sturdier, almost imperceptible in its transformation.

The sun rises and sets.

Time slowly passes...

...

"Brother Xu, are you there?"

A crisp voice broke Xu Fan's immersion in his cultivation state.

Swoosh!

Xu Fan opened his eyes. The red lines were still fine, and the distance remained blurred, but Xu Fan clearly felt that the Rule Power had strengthened once more.

"Yes, is it Ling'er?"

Xu Fan stopped the operation of his spiritual power, and the red lines before him instantly disappeared. Xu Fan gently stood up and walked toward the door.

The members of the Grey Wolf Team had already left, and Qin Fei, who had a good rapport with Xu Fan, had gone to Jinling. Now, in the base, the only person Xu Fan could really talk to was Song Ling'er.

Sure enough, upon opening the door, a young girl dressed in a green gown was standing at the doorway, upright and graceful.

At the sight of Xu Fan, the girl's face instantly became filled with an embarrassed blush.

"Brother Xu, I'm sorry, I waited outside until you regained your spiritual power, but I fell asleep myself."

Haha!

Xu Fan chuckled softly, patting Song Ling'er on the head. "There's nothing to be sorry about; I should be thanking Ling'er."

Song Ling'er had already exhausted her spiritual power at that time, yet she kept vigil at Xu Fan's door. This gesture moved Xu Fan immensely.

"Come in, let me see if our Fourth Rank Alchemist has grown taller."

With a smile on his face, Xu Fan invited the blushing Song Ling'er into the room.

When Xu Fan heard that Song Ling'er was a Fourth Rank Alchemist, he was greatly shocked. Even Xu Fan never imagined that this usually quiet little girl would have such a powerful talent in alchemy!

A month ago, Song Ling'er was only a First Rank Alchemist, but after Xu Fan assisted Song Ling'er with points several times, she made rapid progress, achieving the feat of rising three ranks within a month!

This kind of achievement is extremely rare!

"Brother Xu, please don't tease Ling'er anymore."

Song Ling'er's expression suddenly darkened slightly. "Brother Xu, I—I came this time to say goodbye."

The end of the competition not only means Xu Fan will part ways with the Grey Wolf Team, but it also signifies Song Ling'er's departure, something that has long been destined.

Xu Fan looked at Song Ling'er, whose face showed some sadness, and felt a sharp pain in his heart.

The aura of genius that surrounded Song Ling'er made it easy to overlook that Song Ling'er was, in fact, just a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl!

Previously, Song Ling'er left her grandfather, and now it was time for Song Ling'er and Xu Fan to separate.

Xu Fan really didn't want to part ways with Song Ling'er, but he knew very well that if he kept Song Ling'er, her astonishing talent would be wasted.

Xu Fan had just begun to explore elixir creation, so how could he possibly provide a future for Song Ling'er?

At this moment, Xu Fan's expression was extremely gentle as he softly patted Song Ling'er's little head and said tenderly, "Little girl, don't worry, I will come to Pill Divine Valley to see you."
