Chapter 467: Chapter 467 Exchanging Treasures Chapter 467: Chapter 467 Exchanging Treasures “Jiang Fan!”
Fu Chaohun jumped reflexively.
Staring at him intently.
His breath became erratic!
He could never forget.
For a century, as the strongest Sound Path prodigy in the Nine-Sect Land, he was easily surpassed in Sound Path Techniques by an unknown disciple from the Green Cloud Sect!
He also couldn’t forget.
By the Nu River, as the Chief Disciple of the Heavenly Sound Sect, he had been miserably defeated by a waste known for having no Spirit Root.
It was the Great Elder who, in humiliation, exchanged his own Lifebound Magical Treasure for Fu Chaohun’s life!
Such humiliation made Fu Chaohun feel as if he had gone through a nightmare.
Over the past two months.
Whenever he closed his eyes, scenes of unbearable humiliation would flash before him.
It was precisely this humiliation that made him grit his teeth and strive forward.
Miraculously, he consecutively broke through to the Third Layer of Core Formation.
His Sound Path Techniques advanced by leaps and bounds, successfully comprehending the first form of the “Tiger and Dragon Roar Technique”!
The whole sect was thrilled!
The Supreme Elders all came out of seclusion to offer their congratulations.
A single setback had forged the present him.
He asked himself if his strength had already equaled that of Liang Feiyan or even Jin Zhongming.
He had probably been left far behind.
Now meeting Jiang Fan again, he felt mixed emotions.
Jiang Fan sneered, “What, still holding a grudge?”
Fu Chaohun had thought that when he met Jiang Fan again, he would avenge his shame.
But now seeing him in person.
He felt a sense of relief instead.
He was already a top-level prodigy in the Nine-Sect Land, comparable to Liang Feiyan and Jin Zhongming.
His battle achievements had already washed away his humiliation.
There was no need to challenge a weaker opponent to prove himself.
“It’s all in the past.”
Fu Chaohun said indifferently, “Besides, I have you to thank for my achievements today.”
Jiang Fan looked at Fu Chaohun, slightly surprised.
Xie Liushu, who had witnessed their past grievances, kindly reminded, “Junior Brother Jiang, Senior Brother Fu has recently made great strides in his strength.”
“His cultivation has reached the Third Layer of Core Formation, and he has mastered the ultimate technique of the Heavenly Sound Sect, the ‘Tiger and Dragon Roar Technique.'”
“He recently displayed great power while targeting the Beast King of the monkeys.”
After a pause, he added, “Senior Brother Fu no longer holds any grudges.”
“Junior Brother Jiang, please also set aside past grievances and assist Senior Brother Fu in killing the enemy.”
“Joining forces will be beneficial for you.”
Fu Chaohun had only reached the First Layer of Core Formation initially.
In just two months, he had broken through to the Third Layer of Core Formation.
And he had even comprehended the “Tiger and Dragon Roar Technique.”
This progress was indeed miraculous.
As for Xie Liushu’s attempt to smooth things over.
Jiang Fan smiled, “Senior Brother Xie, you are being too kind.”
“What happened that day was settled that day, there’s no need to talk about setting aside anything.”
“Later, we’ll all fight the Beast Tide together.”
“The number of Beast Kings isn’t too many, we should be able to handle them with our combined efforts.”
Fu Chaohun frowned slightly.
This guy wasn’t surprised at all by his rapid increase in strength?
Though he claimed not to care about the past.
He still hoped to see some shock, or fear, on Jiang Fan’s face.
Could it be that Jiang Fan had also made significant progress during this time?
The thought appeared only briefly before Fu Chaohun dismissed it.
His progress was explosive even within the Nine-Sect Land.
Jiang Fan, at best, might have reached the Second Level of Core Formation.
Realizing this, he began to lecture with the tone of a stronger individual:
“You’ve just arrived at the frontline, don’t underestimate these Beast Kings.”
“Their strength ranges from the First to the Second Layer of Core Formation and might not seem very powerful, but they are adept at teaming up for attacks!”
“They are far more challenging than a single Red-Scaled Evil Flood Dragon.”
He deliberately pointed out the previous Red-Scaled Evil Flood Dragon that Jiang Fan had slain.
Meaning, don’t get overconfident because of your past achievements.
Xie Liushu touched his nose.
He also felt that Jiang Fan was a bit blindly arrogant.
The incoming Beast Tide had no less than thirty Beast Kings.
With just the three Chief Disciples plus Jiang Fan.
If they could take down twenty of them, that would already be an outstanding achievement.
To capture all of them was somewhat overconfident.
Two figures arrived in succession.
They were Xia Chaoge and Liang Feiyan.
The two surveyed the surroundings and said, “We didn’t see a trace of those guys.”
The three split up to search.
Jiang Fan wasn’t surprised, “They must be hiding.”
“Trying to replicate the situation at the mountain peak.”
“When we hold off the Beast Kings, they’ll make a move from behind.”
Liang Feiyan nodded, “We’ll follow Junior Brother Jiang’s lead!”
“If they don’t come, fine. If they dare to, we’ll make sure there’s no return for them!”
“Junior Sister Xia? Senior Brother Liang?”
Fu Chaohun was instantly thrilled.
Though he couldn’t understand what the three were discussing, the arrival of these two made him ecstatic.
He glanced at Jiang Fan and finally understood the source of his confidence.
It wasn’t that Jiang Fan’s strength had improved significantly.
But that Xia Chaoge and Liang Feiyan had joined!
Especially Xia Chaoge!
As the peak fighting force among their peers in the Nine-Sect Land.
Her joining was enough to ensure the defeat of the Beast Tide before them!
Xia Chaoge and Liang Feiyan nodded to the three Chief Disciples present.
Then stood on either side of Jiang Fan.
It seemed they considered him the leader.
This scene caught the sharp eye of Ouyang Jun.
He asked with confusion, “This Junior Brother Jiang, which sect are you from?”
“Why have I never seen you before?”
In his mind, such an excellent elite disciple, he should have met him before.
Why was he so unfamiliar?
Jiang Fan noticed Ouyang Jun as well.
This Thousand Refinement Sect genius craftsman was memorable to him.
With a slight turn of his body, he revealed the Sorrow Frost Sword on his back.
Jiang Fan said with a half-smile, “Young Master Ouyang, have you forgotten me so soon?”
Ouyang Jun then noticed the Sorrow Frost Sword.
Immediately, he recalled the mysterious masked youth at the small disciple trade fair in Desires City!
This was the individual who, with a few moves, had crippled Sun Chaozong with sheer physical strength!
Later, he exchanged the Silver Winged Thunderbird’s claw for the high-grade magical artifact Sorrow Frost Sword that Ouyang Jun had personally crafted.
“Your name is Jiang Fan?”
Ouyang Jun slapped his thigh, “I’ve been looking for you!”
“Do you still have the Silver Winged Thunderbird’s claws?”
“Those materials were tremendously useful!”
“However many you have, I’ll take them all.”
The Silver Winged Thunderbird’s claws contained a trace of the thunder attribute.
This enabled him to successfully craft a rare thunder attribute high-grade magical artifact.
The elders of the Thousand Refinement Sect were ecstatic over it.
Even the Supreme Elders came out to claim it.
Jiang Fan chuckled, “Where would I find so many Silver Winged Thunderbirds?”
Ouyang Jun was deeply disappointed, “Ah, I had prepared many good things.”
Jiang Fan was very pleased with Ouyang Jun’s magical artifacts.
Moreover, he didn’t believe that Ouyang Jun only had high-grade magical artifacts.
He pondered, “I may not have the Silver Winged Thunderbird’s claws.”
“But I do have a more advanced claw.”
“Just not sure if you have something of equal value for exchange.”
During his cultivation in the Sword Forest.
The Sky-Devouring Tiger attacked Jiang Fan and had a portion of its claw cut off.
As one of the Four Great Demon Kings under the Demon Emperor.
Its claw was worth a great deal.
Ouyang Jun shook his head, sighing, “I’m only interested in the Silver Winged Thunderbird’s claws.”
“Other materials can be found in Sunset City. If I wanted them, I would have exchanged for them long ago.”
As the war dragged on.
Previously scarce demon beast materials were now increasingly available in Sunset City.
If you looked carefully, you could even find materials from Beast Kings at the Fifth Layer of Core Formation.
The materials on Jiang Fan, at best, were those from Beast Kings at the First or Second Layer of Core Formation?
Jiang Fan smiled meaningfully, “Not interested in this either?”
He pretended to take something out of his chest, actually retrieving a tiger claw from the Heavenly Thunder Stone.
Ouyang Jun, not having looked yet, started to refuse, “Apologies.”
“But this I… my heavens!”
“Materials from a Ninth Layer of Core Formation demon beast?”
