Eternal Life Chapter 71

 Zhe¹, the a.s.sessment is over. This time we all became Inner Disciples and got to watch a good show. It’s really good that we came.”

“That’s correct, to everyone’s surprise, this Fang Han actually challenged s.h.i.+xiong Hua, it’s just throwing an egg against a rock. There are still a few months until the ShanHe list is reorganized, let’s see if this Fang Han can make it on the list or not.”

“I heard if one ranks first then they can get a Baoqi as a reward from the Sect! A true treasure…even more so, the rest of the top ten can get a Lingqi level flying sword and robes.”

“Bulls.h.i.+t, you think this Fang Han can get on the list? The only reason he can act so overbearing is because of the Seven Evil Gourd and now that First s.h.i.+xiong Hua has taken it away, what can he do? Even the Inner Disciples who have flying swords can kill him easily.”

“Can someone like him be worthy to be chosen for the ShanHe list? Masters on the Shanhe list were people who could enter the G.o.dly Expert Realm at any time, they were all but destined to be Core Disciples, and the Sect even treated them as half Core Disciples. They were liberally given Linqi and Medicinal Pills.”

“Silence, it is better for us to not talk about Fang Han, didn’t you see his connection to the JiaLan Group?’”

“Let’s go, let’s go! We have to cultivate too if we want to display our skills at the ShanHe list compet.i.tion a few months from now, the Sect will reward us handsomely if we do well.”

Fang Han had heard the people talking about him, he stood up without a care and brushed the dust off of himself. He heard that the people considered him as a typical example of someone biting off more than they could chew, a self-righteous p.r.i.c.k. His only fear was that the rumors mill would spin at full speed through the entire sect, rousing countless people to laugh at him.

However, that didn’t spoil his confidence, instead, it reaffirmed his desire to pursue strength.

Never happen before had he yearned for power like this.

“Hua Tian Du will temporarily forestall anyone trying to cause problems for me, but I’m not sure what Fang Qing Xue will think when she exits closed door cultivation and learns that I challenged Hua Tian Du. Maybe she will definitely admire my bravery? This time the first ranking Inner Disciple of ShanHe list compet.i.tion will be gifted a Baoqi from the sect? I need to obtain that Baoqi in order to make everyone shut up and recognize that I’m qualified to challenge Hua Tian Du!”

Fang Han secretlythought that the reason why he took such a great risk in challenging Hua Tian Du, firstly was to avoid future troubles, and secondly, to raise his value in the eyes of Fang Qing Xue’s heart.

It was characteristic of Fang Qing Xue to respect someone the more domineering they were. Now that he had the ident.i.ty as a small Inner Disciple he actually dared to challenge a Core Disciple, and to top it all off it was Eldest s.h.i.+xiong Hua! “He who is not afraid of death by a thousand cuts dares to unhorse the emperor.” He wondered what Fang Qing Xue will think when she came out of the Small Immortal World.

“Fang Han, it’s Jia Lan s.h.i.+jie.”

When they saw Fang Han stand up after making the vow, the two female disciples, Xue Yue Er and Ye Yu, were shocked. They still couldn’t believe that the body in front of them could possess such great courage!

A small body yet posses

s a thousand times of the courage of the body, where did they come from?

Frankly speaking, if the two girls were in the same situation they wouldn’t have even dared to breathe, and if Hua Tian Du decided to kill them, they wouldn’t have even fought back due to his overwhelming presence.

To them, it was a case of “If the emperor wants the minister to die, the minister had no choice but to die.”²

“Jia Lan s.h.i.+jie, I really appreciate you saving me just now, otherwise, I would have had my martial foundation crippled and wasted.” Facing the woman known as “Jia Lan of the West,” Fang Han respectfully saluted.

“Ten years was too short,” Jia Lan said simply.

“What?” Fang Han didn’t understand.

“I said it’s impossible for you to defeat Hua Tian Du within ten years, I don’t think you can do it.” Jia Lan shook her head. “Your current cultivation level is impressive, you must have had some fortuitous encounter which is why you are so confident. However which Yuhua Sect Core Disciple hasn’t had fortuitous encounters? Even the Inner Disciples famous on the ShanHe list have had great fortuitous encounters. Hua Tian Du is very talented, possesses great fortune, and immense fortune. He ran into an Immortal resident when he was very young, and then obtained the legacy of the “Pan Wu Immortal Sage”, who once dominated the Immortal world in ancient times. There are countless treasures, Medicinal Pills, and martial arts secrets in the Pan Wu Strong Force Divine Style which he trains. Not to mention it can store a great amount of mana, none of the other Core Disciples can compare with him, even the greatest Sect in the world- TaiYi Sect’s Disciples can’t compare with. The Grand Elders in the Sect and even the Sect Patriarch are also counting on him to gain face for the Yuhua Sect. The immortals intercourse in the future, he will overwhelm the others…”

Jia Lan said, going through and a.n.a.lyzing Hua Tian Du’s power, fortune, and luck to an extent that would pressure others and give him a feeling of being unbeatable.

“Is that true?” Fang Han’s face paled a little after listening, he did not think himself to be the only person who’d had fortuitous encounters, he knew that others too had Great fortuitous encounters. “The Path of an Immortal is far and long, even Hua Tian Du has only reached the Longevity Realm. I’m not afraid, I can just fight to the death! The more power he is, the more motivation I have.”

“Yep, you are just like Fang Qing Xue. You are both incredibly brave, straightforward, and comfortable to be around. Like a strong liqueur, red and hot, the two of you are cut from the same cloth. Years ago, when Fang Qing Xue had just become a Core Disciple, she had similarly dared to challenge Elder Mad Sword from the Sun and Moon Sword Sect…” Jia Lan shook her head while smiling. “You don’t have to thank me, this time you saved my people, accept the merit you deserve. Here is a set of three flying swords named the “Three Crystal Ice Jade Swords,” I found them in an ancient Immortals ruins. They are a small gift to show my grat.i.tude, if you are going to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion for the ShanHe list, you won’t be able to go far without a flying sword.”

While she spoke, the high-ranking Core Disciple waved her hand and from her sleeves, the three flying swords flew out and landed in Fang Han’s hands.

The three flying swords seemed to have been made of Crystallized Ice, transparent and pure. Fang Han saw joyously accepted them. Jia Lan was as generous as Fang Han had expected, it’s because she are too powerful, defiantly pa.s.s the fifth level, Heaven Men Realm already, and can refine Linqi by herself.

So the flying swords that were priceless to normal disciples weren’t worth much to her.

However, these three flying swords were far less powerful than the “Seven Evil Gourd”.

“It’s heartening to know that you all have become Inner Disciples. Xu Yue Er, Ye Yu, the two of you may take one flying sword each, the others can have top Faqi.” Jia Lan waved again, flying swords appeared in Xue Yue Er and Ye Yu’s hands, while the other female disciples received embroidered pouches. Even though Fang Han couldn’t see what was inside the pouches, he could tell it was something good.

“Let’s go home! Fang Han, though my JiaLan Peak has always forbidden male disciple from entering, you have proven yourself to be courageous. I am also interested in seeing how far you can reach after ten years? To people like us, times flies by, ten years will come just as soon as tomorrow. If you have any question about cultivation, you can look for me on JiaLan Peak.”

After she finished speaking, Jia Lan moved, a lotus platform appeared beneath her feet and then she slowly disappeared.

Fang Han also walked towards the distance.

Because on the ground in the distance, a wide stone gate appeared, it was the Yuhua Sect who opening the gate for the disciples.

“Yan, are you awake?”

“Yes, I woke up as soon as Jia Lan left. These people are scary…I won’t be strong enough to be their opponent until I get my powers back. That Jia Lan gave you three flying swords, great! That’s just great, now you have ten flying swords. Ten flying swords correspond to the ten Flying Yaksha! After they transform into Shura they will have powerful burst potential. I can take that opportunity to blend the swords into their bodies! They will become even more powerful tools at that time!”
