Chapter 177: Lin Fan

"Many thanks, Senior!"

Bowing to Ancestor Minghe, Lin Fan quickly deduced the ancestor's intentions after a brief moment of astonishment.

He had seen Yuanshi Tianzun fail and was anxious, hence his urgent desire to gain the favor, recognition, and assistance of Tongtian Jiaozhu.

However, Lin Fan knew this matter would not end in failure.

If the Saints could not resolve it, Hongjun would not sit idly by.

Since Tongtian Jiaozhu and the others were currently unaware of the situation with the Mysterious Turtle, Ancestor Hongjun would certainly provide a reminder.

Thinking of this, Lin Fan immediately flew toward where Tongtian Jiaozhu was located.

"Greetings, Master!"

Before long, Lin Fan arrived at the area beside Tongtian Jiaozhu and bowed.

"Hmm!"

Nodding, Tongtian Jiaozhu scrutinized Lin Fan and frowned, saying, "Your killing intent is too heavy. Why are you not in seclusion to polish your state, and instead came here?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun also looked at Lin Fan with curiosity.

Regarding Lin Fan.

They had a deep impression of him.

Both Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun, to be honest, quite approved of Lin Fan.

If he were not the disciple of Tongtian Jiaozhu, they might even have wanted to take him under their own command.

Especially Lin Fan at this moment.

He looked full of killing intent, his eyes blood-red, giving one the feeling that he had fallen into a demonic obsession.

But as Saints, they could see that Lin Fan had not fallen into a demonic obsession; rather, it was because of his cultivation of the Sword Dao that his killing intent was too heavy.

As long as he polished it well, his Sword Dao would reach a higher level, and by then, there would not be many among the disciples of the Three Teachings who could compare to him.

"Master, this disciple was just curious!"

With an awkward smile, Lin Fan scratched his head; he could not say he wanted to come here to pick up bargains, and even less could he reveal the purpose for which Ancestor Minghe had sought him out.

"You!"

Shaking his head, Tongtian Jiaozhu truly had not realized that this disciple of his actually liked to join in the excitement.

But that was fine; coming here could also be considered broadening his horizons.

Thinking of this, Tongtian Jiaozhu waved his hand: "Come to my side!"

"Yes, Master!"

Answering, Lin Fan immediately flew to Tongtian Jiaozhu's side, then bowed to Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun: "Greetings, Great Senior Uncle, greetings, Second Senior Uncle!"

"Hmm!"

Nodding, Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun both looked at Lin Fan with appreciation.

Although they said nothing, this scene was still seen by all the Great Supernatural Beings in the surroundings.

For a time, the gazes the gods cast toward Lin Fan became even more solemn.

Back at the Demon Court, it was already evident that Lin Fan had immense potential and that Tongtian Jiaozhu held him in extraordinary favor.

How much time had passed since then? Not only had Lin Fan's strength advanced by leaps and bounds—though compared to them he was still extremely weak—but he had actually gained the recognition of Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun; this was truly surprising.

Such a situation was enough to show Lin Fan's uniqueness.

Thinking of this, many people looked at Ancestor Minghe with a bit of envy.

Lin Fan's current state was certainly the result of Ancestor Minghe's guidance.

Coupled with Lin Fan being valued by the Three Pure Ones, this move by Ancestor Minghe was truly a massive investment, and the returns on the investment were even greater.

After all, back at the Demon Court, Ancestor Minghe had already invested in Lin Fan once, and now he had placed another bet; one could see his boldness and decisiveness.

"Three Senior Brothers, what should be done?"

At this moment, Nuwa asked with deep concern.

After all, without the support of the Heavenly Pillar, the crisis of the Great Desolation could not be resolved; this was a fatal problem.

Unlike the Three Pure Ones who could remain aloof, she was a Saint of the Demon Race.

Even if this matter was not caused by the Demon Race, the hole in the sky was located directly above the Thirty-Three Heavens; if this problem were not resolved, all thirty-three levels would collapse.

Even if the Demon Race abandoned the Thirty-Three Heavens, the collapse of the Great Desolation world would signal the destruction of the Demon Race; by then, her interests would be rapidly shattered, and her own cultivation would also be affected.

"This~"

Facing the question, Laozi, Yuanshi, and Tongtian also frowned.

Now that the plan to repair the Heavenly Pillar by breaking Mount Buzhou had gone bankrupt, how to proceed was indeed a problem.

Also silent were the surrounding Great Supernatural Beings; they too did not know how to solve this problem.

"Ahem~"

Seeing this situation, Lin Fan gave a light cough, knowing it was time for him to step up.

Although he could wait for Hongjun's arrival, since he had already come, if he didn't get involved, how could he scheme for some merit in patching the sky?

Thinking of this, Lin Fan immediately asked in a low voice beside Tongtian Jiaozhu: "Master, Mount Buzhou is gone; can't we find other things to replace it?"

"One pillar cannot compare to Mount Buzhou, but what if we have several more pillars?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of everyone present lit up.

That's right, one pillar won't work, but what about several more?

Thinking of this, the crowd of Great Supernatural Beings raised their heads one after another to look toward where Yuanshi Tianzun was.

Including Laozi, Tongtian Jiaozhu, and Nuwa, who were no exception.

After all, the means to refine a pillar capable of supporting the heavens was not something an ordinary person could achieve.

"Second Brother, is this feasible?"

Tongtian Jiaozhu also looked at Yuanshi Tianzun with some anticipation and asked.

After all, this was proposed by Lin Fan.

Even if it were just a suggestion, if it could truly be executed, then Lin Fan would also receive great benefits.

"It is possible~"

Facing their gazes, Yuanshi Tianzun pondered for a moment before speaking: "There are still four clusters of origin within this Mount Buzhou!"

"Although they are small, if we can use the power of us Saints as the foundation to stimulate them, they can indeed serve as the origin for artifact refining, and we can refine four slightly weaker Heavenly Pillars!"

"Using the four directions of East, West, South, and North as the foundation, combined with your Array Dao power, Third Brother, it should be able to achieve the effect of supporting the heavens!"

"It is just that these four Heavenly Pillars will become weak points of the Great Desolation, and if those four pillars encounter any accidents, the hidden dangers caused will be even greater than the collapse of Mount Buzhou this time!"

It really is feasible!

Hearing this, Laozi, Tongtian Jiaozhu, Nuwa, and the surrounding Great Supernatural Beings all had their eyes light up.

As long as it was confirmed to be feasible, this was the best choice.

As for the subsequent problems mentioned by Yuanshi Tianzun, that was really not within their scope of consideration.

As long as they could manage to repair this place, at worst, when battles occurred in the future, they would avoid the locations of the Heavenly Pillars; if anyone dared to attack them, they would all attack together, and by then, truly no one would dare to act recklessly.

Thinking of this, Nuwa immediately spoke: "Senior Brother Yuanshi, since that is the case, then you should begin acting!"

"I have Five-Colored Stones in my hand; as long as I refine them with the Qiankun Cauldron, I will be able to repair the gap above the firmament!"

"By the time you finish refining, I will also be roughly finished; we can act together to resolve this hidden danger!" ===== CHAPTER 178 =====
