Chapter 261: Persuading Kong Xuan, Seeking the Sea-Calming Pearl

~7 min read 1,375 words

Six Sages gambling match?

Slightly stunned, Kong Xuan looked at Lin Fan with some surprise: "Why is Fellow Daoist interested in this matter?"

"I know about this matter; Dapeng told me some things. It is that there are some treasures in the Fenbao Cliff that the Six Sages fought over because of the issue of ownership."

"It was just that it was eventually suppressed by Hongjun, and the Six Sages reached an agreement to let their disciples have a fight at that time, thereby deciding the ownership of those things."

"Although those things can make Saints fight for them, to be honest, I don't care. Those things have already paled in comparison to my Seven-Colored Divine Light, unless it is an Innate Supreme Treasure!"

"But how could such things as Innate Supreme Treasures belong to disciples like you and me? So I didn't intend to participate in it!"

Nodding, Lin Fan understood Kong Xuan's meaning.

If it weren't for his own Hunyuan Cauldron, Lin Fan honestly wouldn't care too much about such things.

After all, having weak strength also has the benefits of having weak strength; those open struggles cannot affect him.

Unfortunately, this Hunyuan Cauldron was the key now; not only him, but even Tongtian Jiaozhu was determined to get it.

Thinking of this, Lin Fan looked at Kong Xuan: "Fellow Daoist, I don't know what you are specifically planning, but there is one thing I know, and that is that you joined the Jie Sect, so you have to borrow its momentum!"

"Senior Brother Yuyixian's situation is very good. Although he slacked off before, he is working hard now, and Master has also recognized his existence. Even his future prospects will definitely surpass the vast majority of people."

"Since that is the case, why doesn't Fellow Daoist be more proactive?"

"Master is extremely concerned about this matter, and there is something in the Fenbao Cliff that Master is determined to get, but who can know the specific outcome of the fight between disciples?"

"If you participate, Fellow Daoist, this matter is basically a sure thing. When Master gets what he needs, then it won't just be Senior Brother Yuyixian who stands out, but also you, Fellow Daoist!"

"Does Fellow Daoist think that two Inner Disciples can compare to the weight of one Personal Disciple?"

"Especially Senior Brother Yuyixian, he won't have an easy time next. Senior Brother Duobao, Senior Sister Jinling, Senior Sister Guiling, and even the Yunxiao siblings will be eyeing him!"

"After all, his excellence is somewhat of a slap in the face compared to others. He is not like Senior Sister Wudang who can receive Master's protection, nor am I, whose cultivation is not high and who stood on Senior Sister Wudang's side early on, and who has absolutely no interest in the power replacement within the Jie Sect."

As soon as these words were spoken, Kong Xuan's face changed instantly.

He was not an idiot; how could he not hear the meaning of Lin Fan's words?

That was asking him to take the initiative to surrender, and it was an unconditional surrender, and not just borrowing momentum to complete his own affairs.

Admittedly, this matter would be somewhat dangerous.

But as Lin Fan said, there was no comparison between Inner Disciples and Personal Disciples.

Now with Yuyixian's rise, if he also rose and became a Personal Disciple in advance, then with both brothers being Personal Disciples, the situation within the Jie Sect would be much more stable.

Coupled with their relationship with Lin Fan, and Lin Fan's relationship with Wudang Shengmu, even if they really fought, it would be a struggle of three vs three Personal Disciples.

Most importantly, Lin Fan revealed a huge piece of information.

That was Tongtian Jiaozhu's determination to get a certain object. If he solved this hidden danger at this time, then...

"I understand."

Taking a deep breath, Kong Xuan stood up slowly, bowed to Lin Fan with cupped fists and said: "Fellow Daoist, thank you for the guidance!"

"I will go to the Biyou Palace to see Master now."

"I will also participate in this Six Sages gambling match!"

It's done!

Hearing this, Lin Fan was overjoyed.

With Kong Xuan's participation, the Jie Sect could be considered to have a real possibility of competing for first place.

He was not worried about the guys under the Chan Sect, Western Sect, and Nuwa; after all, Duobao, Guiling Shengmu, Jinling Shengmu, Wudang Shengmu, and others were not to be trifled with.

But don't forget the existence of Grand Master Xuandu.

He himself was the most outstanding disciple of the three sects, and coupled with the opportunity Lin Fan gave him to become the Ancestor of Martial Dao, his current strength was also invincible in the same realm.

Duobao had not yet grown to the point of mastering the strengths of the Jie Sect, Ren Sect, and Western Sect, so naturally, he could not go head-to-head with Xuandu.

Wudang had some hope, but it was not great.

After all, not to mention Xuandu's own strength, just the treasures he obtained from Laozi were things countless people dreamed of but could not get.

Conversely, it would be different if Kong Xuan took action.

His strength was unquestionable. In the original work, he, at the late Quasi-Saint stage, made Saints suffer a big loss with the Five-Colored Divine Light. Now, although he was still a Great Luo Golden Immortal, his Five-Colored Divine Light had evolved into the Seven-Colored Divine Light.

That was the power of Yin-Yang and Five Elements gathered together. If they really fought, 99% of the treasures in Xuandu's hands would be restrained. Who would win and who would lose in a one-on-one fight was still unknown.

Thinking of this, Lin Fan's expression suddenly changed, and as if thinking of something, he looked at Kong Xuan: "Fellow Daoist Kong Xuan, speaking of which, I have another request!"

"Oh, what is it?"

Kong Xuan, who was about to leave, paused his steps and looked at Lin Fan with some astonishment.

After all, they had known each other for so many years, and he really had never seen Lin Fan take the initiative to ask for help.

Now that he suddenly spoke, to be honest, Kong Xuan was still somewhat curious and puzzled.

"It's not a big deal."

With a slight smile, Lin Fan no longer kept him in suspense, and stared at Kong Xuan with burning eyes: "Sea-Calming Pearl!"

"It is rumored that the Ancestral Dragon of the Dragon Clan had thirty-six Sea-Calming Pearls in the past, but after the great battle in the Primordial Era, only twenty-four remained, and the rest were inherited by the Qilin Clan, Phoenix Clan, and the current Dragon Clan."

"I performed well some time ago, and Master bestowed those twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls upon me, but I still want to gather them completely. I wonder if Fellow Daoist can help me?"

The system crashed.

Lin Fan naturally didn't need to stick to the original choice.

Originally, he intended to suppress the three clans to seize the Sea-Calming Pearls to complete the task after he became stronger, but now the system's task had disappeared, and the so-called choice had no meaning.

Therefore, Lin Fan now wanted to become stronger rapidly, and even perfect his own situation rapidly.

Especially since his current cultivation was honestly very close to the perfection of the Golden Immortal realm, but he didn't have much grasp of the Nine Tribulations and the Three Flowers.

Precisely because of this, he needed to perfect himself as soon as possible, and even improve his cultivation, at least to reach the level of Taiyi Golden Immortal as soon as possible, so that he could participate in subsequent matters and plans.

"Sea-Calming Pearl!"

"I remember that the Phoenix Clan does indeed have them."

Pondering slightly, Kong Xuan nodded: "However, it's just four Middle-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures. If Fellow Daoist needs them, I will have someone send them out."

"However, it is not convenient for me to go back now, and Dapeng is no exception. I will have someone send them to Dapeng, and I will give them to you after his action in the Human Race ends, how about that?" ===== CHAPTER 262 =====
