527: Ruined a Good Thing 527: Ruined a Good Thing Nangong Xiaoyun had just arrived at Boundary Mountain.
She had only heard that the battle was brutal but had no idea of the specifics.
Therefore, she was unaware of Jiang Fan’s achievements.
She simply instinctively felt that for a mere two hundred defenders to win a world-shaking battle, the disciples and elders of the sects must have displayed extraordinary combat prowess.
Otherwise, victory would have been highly unlikely.
Jiang Fan’s eyes lit up.
He had been coveting those three Nascent Soul One-Strike Jade Tokens for a long time.
If they had these three jade tokens in the fight at Boundary Mountain, victory would have been secured early on.
Their power was comparable to that world-changing Tribulation Thunder.
He made a quick calculation.
In the Giant Sect’s Holy Land, at Sky-Breaking Canyon and Boundary Mountain, Jiang Fan had obtained over a hundred Beast King Demon Cores.
From battling the demon beast forces, he captured another two hundred Beast King Demon Cores.
Altogether, there were a total of three hundred.
According to the conversion of five Beast King Demon Cores equaling one Level-One mission or one hundred merit points:
That would add up to a total of six thousand merit points.
Exchanging for three Nascent Soul One-Strike Jade Tokens was more than sufficient.
Moreover, the merit from the battle at Boundary Mountain was yet to be settled.
The items he could redeem this time were truly abundant.
“Alright, you go first, and I’ll come later,” Jiang Fan said.
After all, before the merit board was issued, it would take quite a while to gather all the disciples.
Nangong Xiaoyun nodded, “Then make sure to come quickly.”
“Many people weren’t convinced by your top rank last time, you know.”
“They’re all eagerly waiting to see you fall from grace this time, so they can comfortably say, ‘This guy finally showed his true colors.'”
Snickering mischievously, she skipped away, her light steps bounding cheerfully.
Jiang Fan touched his nose, muttering, “Are there still people like that now?”
*Having fought so many battles one after another,*
*unless all Nine-Sect disciples were blind…*
*they should have some understanding of his true power by now.*
*Who would still dare to underestimate him so easily?*
Gazing at the person slumbering softly in his embrace,
Jiang Fan leaned against the city wall, careful not to disturb her.
He didn’t waste time either.
He secretly began cultivating the technique “Cloud Shadow” from the Thunder Extension Order.
Last time, he had practiced hastily and only cultivated halfway through.
Yet, he still managed to master the fifty-zhang instantaneous movement technique.
It had played a critical role in seizing the Demon Moon White Bone Hairpin.
How could he possibly leave out such a divine ability?
He closed his eyes and concentrated on cultivation.
Several two-hour periods passed.
Electric currents surged, and thunder snakes roamed within his body.
If he wished, within a hundred-zhang range, he could instantly transform into a thunderbolt and arrive in an instant.
Whether for killing enemies, snatching treasures, or making a swift escape, it was a skill that bordered on divine.
“The First Layer is perfected,” he murmured.
“If the Second Layer is perfected, it would enable instantaneous movement within a thousand-zhang range—a truly heaven-defying ability.”
“Alas, with my current level of thunder and lightning power, sustaining such a long-range leap is far beyond my capability.”
Jiang Fan felt a pang of regret.
Obtaining even a small portion of power from the Heavenly Thunder Stone and successfully cultivating the Second Layer of “Three Pure Thunder Shadow” to unleash the Five Thunder True Heaven Palm was already extremely lucky.
Wanting to acquire more thunder and lightning power again—could it really be so easily achievable?
“Mmm~”
Suddenly, Liu Qingxian awoke abruptly.
