"Disappeared?"
Foundation Establishment Cultivator Fan Wenli’s eyes flickered; he wasn’t sure if he should trust this young man’s words.
But after all, he wasn’t a government official.
There was no way to interrogate Jiang Fan.
If Jiang Fan were lying or unwilling to speak, he couldn’t force him.
Besides, his relationship with Ma Zhong Mountain was quite ordinary.
He couldn’t offend Jiang Fan over Ma Zhong Mountain’s disappearance.
"Fellow Daoist Fan, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be heading back first."
"It seems it was an unfortunate trip this time."
"I went out and didn’t gain anything in the end."
Jiang Fan bid farewell to Foundation Establishment Cultivator Fan Wenli, and then quickly left, returning to his cave abode.
As Jiang Fan left, Chang Lisheng, Yu Kelian, and Lian Minglan, among other Foundation Establishment Cultivators, also appeared at the scene.
"What do you think of Fellow Daoist Jiang’s words?"
"Is Fellow Daoist Ma really missing?"
"Could this kid have killed him?"
Fan Wenli seriously doubted that this gentle-looking young man was as simple as he appeared.
In the Cultivation Realm, there were too many cultivators pretending to be weak.
"Impossible, Fellow Daoist Ma is a Fifth-Layer Foundation Establishment Cultivator."
"This kid is at most at the Third Layer of Foundation Establishment, how could he be a match for Fellow Daoist Ma?"
"Moreover, it wasn’t just Fellow Daoist Ma who set out this time."
"Besides him, there were three Foundation Establishment Loose Cultivators from Xuanjian City."
"They were all basically at the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment level."
"Even if Fellow Daoist Jiang were stronger, it would be impossible to handle four Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators."
"You’re giving him too much credit."
Yu Kelian chuckled, completely unconvinced that Jiang Fan could eliminate Ma Zhong Mountain and the others.
"So, you’re saying Fellow Daoist Jiang’s words are true?"
"Did they really encounter a Tier Three Demon Beast?"
Fan Wenli nodded, feeling that Yu Kelian’s words made sense.
Normally, this young man couldn’t defeat four Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
"It’s not entirely impossible."
"After all, the Mist Mountain Range indeed hides many powerful demon beasts."
"Tier Three Demon Beasts are not uncommon there."
"But for him to escape from a Tier Three Demon Beast, his strength should not be underestimated."
Chang Lisheng’s eyes glimmered.
He became interested in Jiang Fan’s strength.
After all, Jiang Fan had only lived on Seven Stars Peak for a year and wasn’t very acquainted with everyone.
"We’ll know more when Fellow Daoist Ma returns."
"There’s no need to speculate too much."
Lian Minglan was not interested in such matters and soon left.
......
Of course, regardless of the speculation among the Foundation Establishment Cultivators on Seven Stars Peak, it couldn’t affect Jiang Fan.
After returning to his cave abode, he naturally spent time with Su Weiwei.
This is what they say about absence making the heart grow fonder.
It wasn’t until two or three days later that Jiang Fan emerged from this tender sanctuary and entered the meditation chamber.
He sat cross-legged on the ground and took out the Tier Three Spirit Medicine, the Buddha Flame Root.
The surface of this spirit medicine seemed to be covered with countless intricate symbols, resembling Buddhist Runes, and even seemed to harbor a hidden Buddha within, containing indescribable Flame Power.
It appeared extremely mystical.
Without much thought, Jiang Fan placed the Buddha Flame Root into the Ten Thousand Transformations Pill Furnace to cleanse it of toxins and impurities.
Instantly, after being refined by the Ten Thousand Transformations Pill Furnace, it left behind drops of golden medicinal liquid.
Each drop of golden liquid seemed to have a Swastika Symbol within it.
Burning like golden flames.
Jiang Fan immediately swallowed this medicinal liquid.
Rumble~~~
In an instant, his entire body was enveloped by the medicinal power of the Buddha Flame Root, encased in golden flames, burning his skin, flesh, bones, and internal organs.
Rendering his body golden and radiant, resembling a Vajra Arhat.
At this moment, numerous impurities in his body were expelled under the tempering of the golden flames, turning into ashes.
It felt as if his body was being purified from the inside out.
Even his soul was tempered by this strange Flame Power, with his Soul Power constantly increasing.
"Is this the Buddha Flame Root?!"
Jiang Fan was in awe, feeling that this was no ordinary Tier Three Spirit Medicine.
Even among Tier Three Spirit Medicines, it was top-tier, containing infinite wonders.
He could sense the profound refinement effect this spirit medicine had on his body.
It was as if his body had undergone a qualitative enhancement and evolution.
At this moment, he sensed his physical qualities and strength had increased exponentially.
"Right, this is a great opportunity to cultivate the Soaring Snake Technique."
Jiang Fan’s eyes gleamed with a hint of brilliance.
He wouldn’t waste this opportunity or the medicinal power of the Buddha Flame Root.
In an instant, he immediately activated the Soaring Snake Technique.
At the same time, he consumed a lot of Luck Points to further his understanding of the Soaring Snake Technique.
He comprehended many Soaring Serpent Runes.
Instantly, Soaring Serpent Runes appeared on his skin.
Under the immense medicinal power of the Buddha Flame Root, these Soaring Serpent Runes engraved onto his skin.
It was as if these Soaring Serpent Runes were originally part of his body.
The two had completely merged into one.
Clearly, this was the Foundation Establishment Chapter of the Soaring Snake Technique.
Integrating numerous Soaring Serpent Runes into every inch of his skin.
Once engraved, they allow a transformation into Soaring Snake Hide, nurturing new Bloodline Divine Techniques.
However, achieving this is no simple task.
It requires not only extraordinary comprehension but also a robust body and the aid of spirit medicine.
