Chapter 468: Chapter 452: Breaking Through the Celestial Human Realm!_2
So, the collection progress of Vajra Understanding jumped from less than one percent to around three percent.
"That’ll be enough."
Chen Fan exhaled a breath.
So far, the harvest had been quite good.
One Ice Soul Saber and three complete Supreme Martial Arts.
And another Divine Demon Martial Arts, though it was just a tiny part of a tiny part.
In the next moment, he reached out and pointed at Song Gang twice, then lifted his mind control on him.
Song Gang woke up leisurely. Seeing everything around him, he was a bit bewildered, seemingly having no idea what had happened.
But soon, the memory in his mind revived, causing him to instantly wake up, gritting his teeth at Chen Fan and said, "What did you do to me just now?"
His voice had a trace of fear.
Because he realized no matter how he tried to recall, he couldn’t remember what had happened in the last one or two minutes.
It was as if a segment of his memory had been erased.
"Haven’t you already guessed it?"
Chen Fan said with a half-smile.
"You!"
Song Gang’s pupils dilated, and a thick fear appeared in his eyes.
"Did you really use the Soul Shifting Technique on me?"
"What else?"
With a thought, Chen Fan made a blue weapon appear in his hand.
"Ice Soul Saber!"
Song Gang exclaimed immediately. The shock on his face was indescribable.
His voice trembled, "No, that’s my Ice Soul Saber, how could it? How could it be in your hand?"
"Your Ice Soul Saber?"
Chen Fan sneered, "Wrong, this is my Ice Soul Saber, and also this."
An ancient, powerful script appeared on the cover of the manual in his left hand.
"Ice... Ice Soul Cold Blade."
Song Gang was completely dumbfounded.
By now, how could he not understand that all the items on him had fallen into the hands of the person before him.
At this moment, he was really scared.
A fear that reached deep into his bones.
It wasn’t losing the Ice Soul Saber that was terrifying.
What was terrifying was that the Secret Manual of the Ice Soul Cold Blade was also in the other person’s hands.
This was a complete version of the Supreme Martial Arts.
Once it spread out, the family would never let him go.
"Please, give the Secret Manual back to me."
Song Gang wept bitterly, "You can have everything else, but this Secret Manual, no, the manual in the space items, I really can’t give you."
"You weren’t like this before though."
Chen Fan sneered continuously.
"If I don’t give it back, what can you do to me?"
Song Gang opened his mouth, instantly losing his voice.
Yes, right now, his life was at the mercy of the other person.
Let alone, getting back the Cultivation Technique.
"By the way, there’s one more thing I forgot to mention."
Chen Fan withdrew the items into his space items.
"Wh-what is it?"
Song Gang’s heart suddenly skipped a beat, having a bad premonition.
But he thought, what could be worse than those three complete Secret Manual falling into the hands of the person before him?
"I heard that your Song family has two Divine Demon-level Martial Arts, right?"
Song Gang was stunned.
In the Yan Country, anyone with some power knew this, some even knew the names of those two Divine Demon-level Martial Arts manuals.
But this was not a big deal.
Wait!
Song Gang’s eyes widened suddenly, his face turning bloodless.
He remembered very clearly, when he was twenty, he once secretly looked at one of them, though just a little bit.
But that time left a deep impression on him, and he dreamed countless times of having great success in that Divine Skill.
Could it be?
"That’s right."
Chen Fan smiled and slowly uttered three words, "Vajra Understanding."
"Ugh!"
A meaningless sound came from Song Gang’s throat.
A foul smell emanated from his lower body.
His eyes lost their pupils, and even the breath was gone.
"Scared to death?"
Chen Fan reached out and felt the breath of the other person.
Sure enough, there was no movement.
"Really scared to death."
Chen Fan withdrew his hand, sneering.
He was someone who would seek revenge for the smallest grievances.
If the other had cooperated before, he would have let him die quickly, even without feeling pain, but if the other made him unhappy, he would make the other unhappy too.
Just like this Song Gang now, who acted as though he were unafraid of death before.
So he killed his heart.
To be on the safe side, he directly punched the other person into pieces. This way, even if the Song family later tracked him down, it would be difficult to investigate further.
Of course, it didn’t rule out that the Song family had some other means.
However, if the Song family did come looking for him, Meng Xue would certainly give him some tips.
Even if they couldn’t cope for the time being, escaping wouldn’t be a big issue.
"In some way, Meng Xue’s ability can be considered a bottom line for my actions."
Chen Fan thought about it, finding it a bit laughable.
He didn’t want to cause trouble either.
But many times, trouble found him first; just like this time, Shen Si and the others were surrounded by people from Feng Country.
He could indeed choose to not intervene, but his inner conscience wouldn’t allow it.
And once he intervened, he would definitely offend the Song family.
"Forget it, let’s talk about these things later."
Chen Fan calmed his thoughts and looked towards the depths of the rainforest.
More and more people were heading there, it seemed the treasure was about to emerge.
If so, he might as well go take a look; after all, he was already here.
...
Jiangnan City.
A clear sky with not a cloud in sight.
Only above the Martial Arts Association Headquarters, a stretch of thunderclouds spanned over ten miles, with flashes of lightning, and from time to time, thunder.
Pedestrians on the road stopped and looked up, many even took out their phones to snap pictures.
"This is really strange, how can it be thundering in broad daylight?" Someone murmured.
"Why else is there the saying of a bolt from the blue?"
"You all must be too young. What’s with the talk of a bolt from the blue, let me tell you, someone is undergoing tribulation!"
"What! Tribulation!"
Everyone around immediately looked at the person who spoke.
"Yes."
The man had a face of pride, "Why not? Haven’t you read novels about cultivators? When they break through their realm, they attract lightning tribulation. Only by withstanding it can they succeed, otherwise, they die and their path ends."
"Is that true? Isn’t that just in novels?"
"Yeah, and it’s been so long, we haven’t seen any lightning strike down?"
"Could he be making things up?"
While pedestrians discussed fervently on the street.
Notable figures in the city also looked at the thunderclouds above the Martial Arts Association Headquarters with complex faces.
"Such a scale of celestial phenomenon, it’s likely consolidating a first-grade Martial Arts True Pill. I didn’t expect him to reach this step, it’s not simple, not simple at all."
Someone sighed.
"That kid, even at the True Essence Realm, could rival Celestial Realm Martial Artists. Now, if he’s entered the Celestial Realm and consolidated a first-grade Martial Arts True Pill, though just entering the Celestial Realm, this borrowed power of heaven and earth could rival mid-stage Celestial Realm Martial Artists. Given time, he could be another Wang Daoquan."
Someone squinted, their face grim.
"The Jiangnan Sub-district Martial Arts Association has gained another Celestial Realm Martial Artist. The guards in Jiangnan City are even stronger now. The hope for the revival of our Human Race is on the horizon."
Someone expressed joy.
The thunderclouds gathered above the Association Headquarters were not hindering lightning tribulation meant to stop someone’s breakthrough.
But indeed, the celestial phenomenon was induced by someone’s breakthrough.
A breakthrough from the Meridian Refining Realm to the True Essence Realm wouldn’t cause such a commotion.
Only when consolidating the Martial Arts True Pill and stepping into the Celestial Realm could such a celestial phenomenon be induced.
And the breakthrough from the Celestial Realm is the same.
After a long while, the thunderclouds above the Association Headquarters gradually dispersed, sunlight poured down, as if nothing had happened.
Pedestrians went off in small groups, marveling at the curiosity.
Some noble families were already preparing gifts, ready to visit and congratulate.
