Chapter 638: Chapter 611: Xu Fan’s Perception
After sending his beloved senior disciple away, Xu Fan returned to the underground space.

At this moment, Avatar No.1 in the underground space was making the final adjustments to a Mahayana puppet.

“It’s finally going to be completed!” Xu Fan said with anticipation.

He thought to himself, with two Mahayana puppets standing on either side of him, who wouldn’t give him some respect?

“It’s going well, it’s almost done.”

“If we really have to fight all-out, we wouldn’t have to lose everything.” Avatar No.1 laughed.

When the first generation Mahayana puppet was produced, Avatars No.1 and No.2 had made predictions.

If they encountered a Demon Venerable that couldn’t be defeated by the Mahayana puppet in three blows, and they didn’t send out the Invincible Venerable Avatar jade talisman, the entire Hidden Spirit Sect would be ruined.

A single blow would deplete the Sect’s total consumption for a year.

Three blows would be equivalent to at least half of the consumption of a top-grade Dao Tool.

If they needed to continue the fight, they would have to start selling their possessions.

“How much does this puppet consume?” Xu Fan asked, touching the newly refined Mahayana puppet.

“If the first generation Mahayana puppet consumes an amount with one blow, this one can deal out eight blows.”

“After all, it’s a Mahayana puppet, if we just focus on the consumption, the power would definitely decrease.” Avatar No.2 said as he put the final core into the chest cavity.

In a moment, an aura only belonging to a Mahayana puppet rose.

Mysterious runes began to flash on the Mahayana puppet’s body.

The runes then began to evolve, eventually forming a layer of heavy armor around the Mahayana puppet’s body.

“Give it a name. After all, you provided the design.” Avatar No.1 said.

“Let’s call it Heavenly Might No.1,” Xu Fan said after some thought.

Anger is like the might of the heavens, all creatures must submit.

“Your name sounds a bit cheesy.” Avatar No.1 laughed.

“Cheesy it may be, but it’s clear in meaning,” Xu Fan laughed back.

“What should I do next, continue refining Mahayana puppets?” Avatar No.1 asked.

“No hurry, you’ve been working hard recently. Wait for Pang Fu to come back, then you can go see eldest brother,” Xu Fan said.

After all, compared to everything else, Divine Fire is more important. Sharpening your axe will not delay your work in chopping up wood.

Just then, a streak of flowing light crossed the sky, and a fairy jade seemed to fall through space into Avatar No.1’s hands.

“Streaming Light Immortal Jade?” Avatar No.1 asked in confusion.

“Check if the content is the fairy jade advertisement from Wandering Immortal Palace,” Xu Fan suggested.

“Let us watch it together then.”

Avatar No.1 held out his hand to project the content of the fairy jade.

The familiar sight of a giant door that spanned heaven and earth appeared.

“It’s quite novel the first time around, but it’s just so-so the second time,” Xu Fan chuckled.

“I find it quite stimulating, don’t be a spoilsport,” Avatar No.1 replied.

“Speaking of the Wandering Immortal Palace, it’s considered a regional hegemon among sects.”

“According to the information I’ve collected about the Great Thousand World, we’ll most likely end up in this area when we ascend,” Xu Fan explained.

“That’s years from now, why think so much about it?” Avatar No.1 asked.

“Though you say so, we have to prepare early. I’ve noticed that something’s not right.”

As he spoke, a Merit and Luck Treasure Cover appeared behind Xu Fan. Its solid, luxurious quality surpassed its previous state.

“Recently, I’ve felt that the supreme laws of the Human and Demon Worlds, left behind by the heavens, have started to subtly exert their force.”

“If nothing unexpected happens, whoever ends up winning between them will depend on these final moves by the heavenly Dao.”

As Xu Fan was speaking, he reached into his treasure cover and picked out a Merit and Luck Treasure Bead, inserting it into the core of Heavenly Might No.1.

“So I feel we won’t make it to the day of my ascension to the Great Thousand World.”

“If we don’t plan to leave this troubled place in time, we might run into problems. We should prepare for a rainy day,” Xu Fan said, stroking his chin.

“Sigh, the more I hear from you, the more I feel that the stress is mounting,” Avatar No.1 sighed.

“Don’t exaggerate. I already have a preliminary plan in mind. You and No.2 will have to put in some work when the time comes,” Xu Fan said.

“I knew it, you’re being nice to me for a reason,” Avatar No.1 stated.

“Stop putting it that way, I have no choice, do I?”

“I am going to rest now. Let me know when Pang Fu gets here,” Avatar No.1 said before disappearing back into the underground space.

“He’s getting harder and harder to fool.”

“As expected, it’s a bit tricky to fool oneself,” Xu Fan admitted.

Just then, several streaks of immortal jade flashed across the sky.

“Why didn’t I get any? I’ve produced the immortal tools,” Xu Fan wondered aloud.

In the plains behind the main peak, Avatar No.2 was carving rune arrays onto the entire astral ship.

“I heard that you turned Zhan Ling into a child, which was really unnecessary.” Avatar No.2 asked with a laugh as soon as he saw Xu Fan.

He was familiar with the setup, understanding its functionality perfectly well.

“Since she has already reincarnated and regained her spirit, it’s not a big deal to grow up again. Besides, it’s good for overall well-being,” Xu Fan laughed off.

“Why are you here today?” Avatar No.2 asked.

“No reason, I’m just hanging around.”

Xu Fan started to wander around the astral ship as he spoke.

“Look at you, so idle all day,” Avatar No.2 teased.

Just then, a puppet figure crawled out from inside the astral ship. He noticed Xu Fan and called out with a laugh, “The Great Master has arrived.”

“Hello, Senior Brother Sha, why have you suddenly taken an interest in astral ships?” Xu Fan asked with a smile, presently the New Continent was not something Senior Brother Sha was equipped to understand.

“I was just looking around. I’ve made some progress in my research on alloy materials recently, and I had a sudden thought to see if it could be used for repairing astral ships,” Senior Brother Sha laughed, a glint of joy in his eyes.

“Senior Brother Sha, have you succeeded?” Xu Fan exclaimed in surprise.

“There’s some effect, but it’s not ideal. At most it can only repair a hole a hundred meters long,” Senior Brother Sha responded.

“Main body, remember when the time comes you really must reward Senior Brother Sha handsomely.”

“Even by setting up just an astral ship repair factory with this alloy, we can make pots of money,” Avatar No.2, who was inscribing the array formation, said with a laugh.

“Of course, in a while, I’ll personally refine a Dao Tool for Senior Brother Sha, a tool that can help Senior Brother Sha become a real Artifact Refining Master.”

Xu Fan said with a laugh, in fact, he had been thinking about this for a long time, so he mentioned it today upon seeing Senior Brother Sha.

“Great Master, are there really such tools?” Senior Brother Sha asked excitedly.

Although he was now an Artifact Refining Master, his skills were only limited to the research of spirit mineral alloys.

In terms of refining Dao tools, he always felt that he was missing something.

“There weren’t any before, but there will be now that I’m here,” Xu Fan chuckled.

Research personnel should be treated well at all times, especially those who specialize in rare research fields.
