Chapter 367

Everyone looked at Chen Fan in disbelief.

How did you break through again? Didn't you just break through?

Lukasi recovered from his shock and looked at the cracked Soul Washing Pool, immediately becoming furious.

"Kid, you actually destroyed my race's Soul Washing Pool! Do you know that it takes my race ten years to collect those meteor cores?"

Chen Fan looked innocent: "This isn't my fault; I didn't take any action to destroy it, it shattered by itself, okay?"

"If you hadn't been absorbing it crazily, would it have broken?" Lukasi's face turned green.

"Who made the rule that I couldn't absorb it crazily?" Chen Fan was displeased.

"Lukasi, what's going on?" A majestic voice rang out.

At this time, Geluote brought many human Martial Saints to this side.

Lukasi hurriedly put on a gloomy face and recounted the matter.

"Two breakthroughs in a row?" For a moment, the many Martial Saints were shocked.

Ye Wentian looked at Chen Fan, his eyes filled with pleasant surprise: "Xiao Fan, you've broken through to the Sixth-rank?"

"Yes, Master." Chen Fan hurriedly climbed out of the Soul Washing Pool and respectfully came to Ye Wentian's side.

The Sand Emperor looked at Chen Fan with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes, but quickly concealed it.

Geluote's gaze lingered on Chen Fan for a long time before he said indifferently: "If the meteor cores are broken, they're broken. Just have someone embed another batch."

At this very moment, in front of the many human Martial Saints, he naturally would not bicker with a junior.

"Then what about us? We didn't absorb a single bit of thunder fiend power." At this time, the group of human descendants spoke up one after another.

Geluote waved his hand casually, appearing extremely magnanimous.

"Lukasi, arrange for people to embed the meteor cores immediately, and let them absorb for another hour."

Although Lukasi was extremely pained, he still turned to go handle it.

At this time, Chen Fan secretly leaned into Ye Wentian's ear and asked: "Master, how did your discussion go? Where is the heart of 'Punishment' now?"

Ye Wentian did not hide anything from him, nor did he care if the Three-Eyed Blue Blood Race nearby could hear their conversation.

"Xiao Fan, it's quite a coincidence; that heart was sealed by their Martial God deep underground back then, and that location happens to be in your hometown."

"What?!" Chen Fan was startled, immediately recalling the two plots the Beast Worship Cult had orchestrated against Qingcheng City.

"I remember experts investigating and saying there were abnormal energy fluctuations at a depth of 500,000 meters. Could that be the heart?" Chen Fan couldn't help but speculate.

"I originally thought a group of Three-Eyed Blue Bloods was hidden under Qingcheng City; I didn't expect it to be a heart." Chen Fan sighed with emotion.

"It is indeed very likely that Three-Eyed Blue Bloods still exist under Qingcheng City," Ye Wentian said. "Geluote said their Martial God once sent a batch of clansmen to guard the heart of 'Punishment,' but 100,000 years have passed, and they don't know the current situation of that batch of Three-Eyed Blue Bloods."

"Master, it would be best if that heart remained buried underground and never saw the light of day again." Chen Fan frowned.

"That may be so, but without that heart, we cannot find the body of 'Punishment.' In case the Beast Worship Cult guys find another suitable heart, we'll be in trouble."

"Master is right." Chen Fan couldn't help but nod.

Ye Wentian continued: "Xiao Fan, we have already discussed it with the Three-Eyed Blue Blood Race just now. The two races plan to jointly establish a team responsible for finding the heart under Qingcheng City. You will join on behalf of Daxia; Qingcheng City is your hometown, and you are the most familiar with it. Moreover, there will be benefits for this operation; at that time, both the human race and the Three-Eyed Blue Blood Race will provide rewards."

"No problem." Chen Fan readily agreed; he also wanted to solve the mystery of Qingcheng City himself.

Soon, the Three-Eyed Blue Blood Race repaired the Soul Washing Pool, and the group of human descendants entered the pool again to absorb the thunder fiends.

This time, Chen Fan did not enter again, but accompanied the group of human Martial Saints to wait on the side.

One hour later, the human youths had all gained something and wore joyful expressions.

"Chen Fan, my soul strength has increased quite a bit, oh." Diana came to Chen Fan's side, extremely happy.

Chen Fan smiled and looked at Geluote, saying: "Senior, I would like to exchange for some meteor cores, I wonder if that is possible?"

"Oh? What are you using to exchange?" Geluote looked at him with surprise.

"Using this!" Chen Fan handed over a space ring.

After Geluote checked it, he was greatly amazed and agreed immediately.

In the end, Chen Fan exchanged three space rings for 50 meteor cores.

As a result, both felt they had made a huge profit, and the way they looked at each other became much friendlier.

Chen Fan exchanged for the meteor cores intending to configure a Soul Washing Pool for himself after returning; this stuff not only increases cultivation but also greatly increases soul power.

His current soul strength was only one step away from breaking through to the Eighth-rank Peak Grandmaster; these two ability level breakthroughs hadn't increased his soul power much.

He wanted to go back and try to see if he could break through to the Eighth-rank Peak in one go with the help of these meteor cores!

With matters here concluded, Geluote brought everyone to a conference hall to discuss the search for the heart of 'Punishment.'

The Sand Emperor spoke first: "The number of people in this search team should not be too large, otherwise it will easily attract the attention of the Beast Worship Cult. I suggest the number of people should not exceed five."

"I have no objection." Geluote nodded: "My Three-Eyed Blue Blood Race will send two people; how about your human race sends three?"

"That's fine!" The human Martial Saints nodded one after another.

Geluote looked around at everyone and said: "The two people sent by my race are Lukasi and Aolaixi!"

Lukasi goes without saying; Aolaixi is the one who attended the meeting at the Kremlin earlier.

That Seventh-rank Three-Eyed Blue Blood.

The human side had already discussed the candidates long ago.

Ye Wentian said directly: "Qingcheng City is after all within my Daxia territory, and my Daxia people are better at handling things. For the three human spots, my Daxia will provide two, namely Chen Fan and Black Crow."

Letting Black Crow join was something Chen Fan and he had discussed.

Black Crow can transform into countless crows; whether it's scouting or surveillance, he is a top-tier expert.

"My Sand Russia will provide one; my daughter Diana will participate." Beside them, the Sand Emperor said.

Everyone expressed that they had no objections.

At this time, Chen Fan asked another sharp question.

"Seniors, if we successfully retrieve the heart, how will the rewards be calculated?"

Things must be said upfront to avoid empty promises later.

The group of Martial Saints were silent; they really hadn't expected Chen Fan to be so straightforward.

Geluote coughed lightly and said: "The heart of 'Punishment' contains undying blood. This blood is extremely effective for tempering the body. After retrieving the heart, I will personally configure the body-tempering precious liquid for you."

He paused, looked at the human Martial Saints around him, and said: "Of course, your human race will bear half of the spirit medicines needed to configure the precious liquid."

"That is naturally no problem." Everyone nodded one after another.

Originally, everyone's itinerary was to stay with the Three-Eyed Blue Blood Race for a few days, but because they knew about the Beast Worship Cult's plan to awaken the Indestructible Tribulation Blood Battle Body, everyone lost the mood and chose to return to the surface one after another.

One day later, Chen Fan and his party of five appeared in a supreme luxury suite on the top floor of the Tianyuan Hotel in Qingcheng City.

Besides Chen Fan, Diana, and Black Crow, there were two strange men here.

They were none other than the disguised Lukasi and Aolaixi.

The two wore baseball caps to cover their third eyes, and their faces had also been disguised; on the surface, they looked no different from the human race.
