My Master Only Breaks Through on the Edge of Death

“Master, this is for you.” Xu Yuexian said.

Xu Fan smiled and clinked glasses with Xu Yuexian.

“Master, you’ve worked hard during this time, and I haven’t been able to help much. I feel quite ashamed.” Xu Yuexian said.

“It’s all about handling a bunch of Mahayana Period Venerable Demons. You wouldn’t be able to help even if you wanted to.”

“Just focus on your cultivation in the future, and once your cultivation level is high enough, your master can rest easy.” Xu Fan laughed, thinking of the scene when he first met the Eldest Brother and Old Two, and couldn’t help but sigh that time passed so quickly yet so damn slowly.

“Of course, even after ascending to the fairy world in the future, I will always stay by Master’s side as long as you need me.” Xu Yuexian filled Xu Fan’s cup again.

“If I don’t need you, will you not stay by my side?”

“I still have to go out and look for treasures for Master.” Xu Yuexian smiled like a little fox.

“Haha, that’s fine.” Xu Fan laughed.

“After a while, I’ll forge a Treasure Artifact that can suppress destiny for you, so you can follow the Xing Zhou and take a tour.” Looking at Xu Yuexian’s fox-like little eyes, Xu Fan knew exactly what his silly disciple was thinking.

“Really? Thank you, Master!” Xu Yuexian exclaimed happily.

“In a while, go to the Underground Space and find your First Master. Let him forge it for you.”

“If nothing unexpected happens, your First Master should be watching anime right now.” Xu Fan said.

“I understand.” After finishing her drink with Xu Fan, Xu Yuexian hurried off to the Underground Space.

On the first day, Xu Fan appeared above the Steel Great Wall in a Void Refining Puppet.

“Great Master, what brings you here today?” Zhan Ling greeted.

“Oh, nothing. Just came over to take a look, what if the Demon Venerable comes again?” Xu Fan said.

At this moment, the entire steel fortress had entered a peaceful period, with no Demon Clan attacking the Steel Great Wall.

“It would be great if the Demon Venerable comes again. I’ve always wanted to see the power of the big killer weapon mentioned by the Great Master.” Zhan Ling said.

“Why don’t we try it out now?” Xu Fan said with narrowed eyes.

“How can we test it without the Demon Venerable?” Zhan Ling asked confusedly.

“Even if there’s no Demon Venerable, there’s still the Esteemed One, isn’t there?” Xu Fan smirked.

At this moment, Xu Fan ordered the railgun hundreds of miles above in the sky to lock onto Zhan Ling.

In an instant, Zhan Ling’s hair stood on end, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and the breath of death enveloped him.

At this moment, Zhan Ling suddenly panicked, cold sweat pouring down as he looked at Xu Fan and said anxiously, “Great Master, please don’t joke.”

That breath of death continued to linger in Zhan Ling’s heart, as if he would face death at any moment.

“Have you felt its power?” Xu Fan asked.

Zhan Ling nodded hastily, as if someone was pointing a gun at his forehead and asking if he’s handsome.

“When that Moon Fox Demon Sovereign returns, the big killer will begin to show its might.” Xu Fan looked at the scene outside the Steel Great Wall.

He felt that he had become a scheming man, not using the good stuff immediately but instead choosing to scheme against others.

Xu Fan let the railgun cancel its lock, and Zhan Ling finally breathed a sigh of relief. The feeling just now was truly terrifying.

“Pu Tao, issue a task for Tianjue Masters above the third tier to go out and hunt Demonic Beasts, and let defensive puppets replace their battle puppets for defense.”

Seeing that the Tianjue Masters were getting bored, Xu Fan issued a task.

“Received.”

In a moment, all the Tianjue Masters in the virtual game received the task of freely hunting with generous Spirit Stone rewards.

“What a spectacular sight,” Zhan Ling said, admiringly, as he watched thousands of puppets forming teams and heading out of the Steel Great Wall to hunt Demonic Beasts.

“Great Master, how many third-tier Tianjue Masters are there in the game now?” Zhan Ling asked curiously.

“There are about 10 million. These are the more talented ones. In another ten years, those with ordinary talent can be promoted to third-tier Tianjue Masters through regular training, and there will probably be over 100 million,” Xu Fan said, thinking.

“More than 100 million Golden Core-level puppets, and each one is a living person.” Zhan Ling was shocked, unable to imagine what that would be like.

“In the Cultivation World wars, victories are won by those top-notch Esteemed Ones. These Golden Core puppets, no matter how numerous, can only determine a local victory,” Xu Fan said, watching the puppets moving forward like a tidal wave.

“Right, but with hundreds of millions of puppets, killing them would take some time,” Zhan Ling agreed, nodding.

At this moment, Zhan Ling suddenly noticed an extremely conspicuous and eye-catching top-level Celestial Sword Series puppet in the puppet crowd.

Xu Fan also noticed that puppet.

“It seems your friend is running short on Spirit Stones. Do you want to help him out?” Xu Fan said with a smile.

“Let’s forget it. Although my brother loves to buy high-quality puppets, he always uses his own Spirit Stones. He’s got backbone,” Zhan Ling said. He had once planned to give a Void Refining-level puppet to the middle-aged Butcher, but it was politely refused.

At this point, a light curtain appeared in front of Xu Fan, showing scenes of Tianjue Masters controlling their puppets to battle with the Demonic Beasts.

A thousand puppets surrounded a group of more than 100 Nascent Soul Demon Clan and were engaged in a skirmish battle.

The thousand puppets had clear divisions of labor in defense, containment, main attack, and sneak attack. In a short time, the more than 100 Nascent Soul Demons were killed, with the corpses all intact.

“Beautiful, this is the best command,” Zhan Ling praised.

“Among those mortals who can’t cultivate, many geniuses remain undiscovered. Like the Tianjue Master who commands these puppets, she’s actually just an 18-year-old girl.”

“During her command training, she could command an army of hundreds of thousands of puppets, with minimal casualties, to wipe out a Demonic Clan of the same level and strength.”

“Even some sect disciples who are good at commanding have been defeated by her. Even in her peak state, as long as the number of commanded puppets does not exceed 500,000, Pu Tao has no solution for her under the same conditions,” Xu Fan said, looking at the light curtain at the commanding puppet in the distance.

“It’s a pity that she’s just a First-Order Mortal,” Zhan Ling said regretfully.

“Yes, just a First-Order Mortal, with only a hundred years of time,” Xu Fan said.

“Great Master, do you have any means to keep such talented people like her, such as Soul Cultivation?” Zhan Ling asked, looking at Xu Fan. These emerging talents, who could shock the world, were much needed in these chaotic times.

“That’s a matter for the future. The price to keep them now is too high. Let them grow for some time,” Xu Fan said, looking at the puppet responsible for the command.

“That’s true, I’ve also seen similar methods in the Demon Sect, all of which go against the heavens,” Zhan Ling said.

At this moment, in this light curtain, a basic God Transformation Stage puppet caught Zhan Ling’s attention.

A Swordsman puppet was seen moving like a ghost in a group of God Transformation Stage Demonic Beasts, passing through them quickly.

None of the God Transformation Stage Demonic Beasts could attack the Swordsman puppet with their divine abilities or attacks. Instead, with each swing of the puppet’s sword, a terrifying wound was added to a certain Demonic Beast.

“Amazing! To be able to control it to this extent,” Zhan Ling exclaimed in admiration. His other identity was a Fourth-Order Tianjue Master in the game.

“He’s reached the limit of mortals,” Xu Fan said, watching the light curtain.
