Extraordinary Medical Saint in the City

The elder who spoke, named Zhang Song, is a Palace Master in the Holy Mansion and holds the status of an Elder.

"Yes, of course there is. Haven't you all seen the horrific talent of Lin Fan? When he joined the Holy Mansion, he merely had Divinity Transformation Cultivation, but three months ago, when he left the Holy Mansion, he was at the Unification Realm!"

"Now, he is an Eighth Rank Ancient Saint. Think about it, who else could possess such a fearsome progression speed?"

"From Divinity Transformation to Eighth Rank Ancient Saint, it hasn't even been half a year! I've never seen such a terrifying Cultivation speed," Murong Guan shook his head.

Zhang Song's brows furrowed.

"Lin Fan's Cultivation is indeed fearsome, and I know his talent defies the heavens. However, someone like Lin Fan is like a Divine Dragon in the sky, while our Holy Mansion is just a small river ditch. How could it possibly contain him?" Zhang Song sighed, shaking his head.

"This Pavilion Master is naturally aware of that," Huo Xiao slowly stepped forward.

All eyes rested on Huo Xiao!

"What does Elder Huo mean by this? Since the Holy Mansion cannot keep Lin Fan, what's the use of us courting him so greatly? Lin Fan will leave sooner or later!" Zhang Song asked.

"Hehe! Naturally, Lin Fan cannot be retained, but what about his women?" Huo Xiao chuckled slyly, his eyes gleaming: "It's clear to see that although Lin Fan is decisive in killing and doesn't even blink an eye when he kills, he's not a heartless person. On the contrary, he's a man of deep emotions. If we treat his women well, and cultivate them as our best disciples!"

"Not to mention the rest, but if the Holy Mansion faces trouble in the future, would Lin Fan really turn a blind eye?"

"That's right!"

Gu Santong nodded and said, "However, we must sincerely treat both Lin Fan and his women well!"

"Eh... Not bad, this is a good plan! If we can't hold onto Lin Fan, then we'll grasp his women!" Zhang Song's eyes lit up.

...

...

Three days later, Lin Fan set out, preparing to leave the Holy Mansion Continent.

Ye Yilin and others, though reluctant to part, knew that Lin Fan should not stay in the Holy Mansion.

In the Holy Mansion, there was no way to undertake Cultivation, nor was there a way to reach higher Realms.

When the Heavenly Demons from beyond the domains descend, strength will be the greatest capital for survival!

"Lin Fan, if you want to go to the Divine Wind Continent, we have a few Breakthrough Ships here. According to you, the Breakthrough Ship you had is broken. We can provide one for you," Murong Guan smiled, raising a hand, and from his Storage Ring, a Breakthrough Ship flew out, appearing before Lin Fan.

This Breakthrough Ship was not very large, capable of carrying about ten people.

To send Lin Fan to the Divine Wind Continent, this was sufficient!

Lin Fan bid farewell to everyone and headed directly to the Divine Wind Continent.

The first stop, Emperor Gray City!

The largest city in the Northern Territory of the Divine Wind Continent.

"Little Fan, what are you planning to do next?" As Lin Fan walked down the streets of Emperor Gray City, Emperor Jade transmitted to him.

Lin Fan was silent for a second before answering, "Of course, I'm thinking of ways to increase my strength. However, the opportunities suitable for my current Realm are no longer sufficient! I need a massive opportunity! Otherwise, it will be too difficult to enhance my strength!"

"Right, last time I absorbed the Mana of Ming Xiao, so in one fell swoop, I went from a Fifth Rank Ancient Saint to an Eighth Rank Ancient Saint! If... I go and find other Saint Emperors and absorb their Cultivation, could I quickly enhance my Cultivation?"

Hearing Lin Fan's words.

Emperor Jade was somewhat surprised.

But still.

He answered earnestly, "Lin Fan, do you think that's the right thing to do? Ming Xiao was your enemy, and if he didn't die, you would have to die, so there's no issue with you absorbing Ming Xiao's Mana! But if you go and absorb the Mana of other Saint Emperors, who aren't your enemies, how would what you're doing be different from a demonic cultivator?"

"I was just asking casually, of course, I wouldn't really do that." Lin Fan replied with a light smile, shaking his head.

Although such thoughts existed in his heart.

But as soon as Emperor Jade mentioned it, that thought was tossed to the back of Lin Fan's mind.

The Heavenly Pride Conference may have ended.

But the discussions within Emperor Gray City remained fervent.

Walking on the grand streets of Emperor Gray City, Lin Fan was surrounded by cultivators discussing the recent events of the Heavenly Pride Conference.

Names like Fen Xiao, Niu Ben, Zhou Feng, Liu Jian, Seven Kills... echoed the loudest among them, marking the most genius of the younger generation!

"This time, Zhou Feng performed the best... unbelievable that he seized the top rank on the Genius List!"

"Who is this Zhou Feng anyway? Such an ordinary name! Never heard of him, whereas the closely following Liu Jian hails from a major force, securing the second position on the Genius List!" someone asked in confusion.

Because the name Zhou Feng was simply too common.

So common that you could literally grab a handful of them within Emperor Gray City!

"And then there's Seven Kills, a name heavy with the aura of slaughter. It is said that he earned his name by killing the top seven ranking individuals in a trial. This time, he's ranked third on the Genius List!"

"..."

"As for Fen Xiao, ranked tenth, he may not be the strongest, but he's not bad either, and at least he's the most handsome, hehe!" a female cultivator commented.

"Hmph! In the Cultivation World, strength is revered, what's the use of being handsome?"

"Indeed! Do you think being handsome would make your enemies go easy on you during battle?" someone immediately retorted.

Lin Fan had heard of Fen Xiao and Niu Ben, even encountering Fen Xiao in an A-rank secret realm.

But he had no recollection of Zhou Feng, Liu Jian, or Seven Kills.

"However, they are only the geniuses of our Northern Territory's Genius List. To continue ranking, we must also compete with the geniuses from the Divine Wind Continent's East Territory, West Territory, and Southern Territory in a grand competition to determine the ultimate ranks!"

"The grand competition is starting soon, right?"

"It's scheduled for one month from now..."

People on the streets could be seen discussing passionately everywhere.

As Lin Fan passed through the crowd, he heard every word.

Emperor Jade asked, "What? Don't you want to compete with those geniuses?"

Lin Fan smiled and shook his head.

"Emperor Jade, do you think those people are even comparable to me? I can instantly kill a Sixth Rank Saint Emperor, slay a Seventh Rank Saint Emperor; tell me, which of these geniuses could do that? Compete? Not interested!" Lin Fan said with a laugh as he shook his head.

"That's true." Emperor Jade agreed.

With Lin Fan's current cultivation level, there was really no need for him to participate in such competitions. His only desire was to enhance his strength, so when the Heavenly Demons from beyond invade, he could contribute his power to protect the Divine Wind Continent and its subordinate realms.

Suddenly.

A crisp voice reached Lin Fan's ear: "Young Master Lin, long time no see, we meet again!"

Lin Fan stopped in his tracks and looked back.

He saw a stunningly beautiful woman standing gracefully before him.

Sikong Xuan!

It was her.

Last time, within the A-rank secret realm of Emperor Gray City, it was Lin Fan and Sikong Xuan who withdrew from the Heavenly Pride Conference.

Now, Sikong Xuan's cultivation had advanced from the Seventh-Rank Sage Venerable to the Eighth-Rank Sage Venerable realm. It seemed that she too had not slackened in her cultivation these past months!
