At night.
Lin Fan sat cross-legged and immersed himself in his Inner World.
The Divine Parasol Tree was deeply rooted in the Inner World. Its green leaves were lush and flourishing, and life force surged.
"Eh …? There's a new branch growing out and it's even sprouting! Seems like this Ancient Saint World is truly a land of treasures! To think that this Mythical Parasol Tree would be able to absorb the Saint Spirit Qi on its own and grow gradually!"
Initially, Lin Fan did not know how the Mythical Parasol Tree should be nurtured. However, after a period of not looking at it, he realized that the Mythical Parasol Tree was finally starting to develop in the Ancient Saint World. Not only that, the speed of its development wasn't slow at all. In just a few days of not looking at it, there were already many green leaves growing out of it.
Indeed, that was the case. This Mythical Parasol Tree was severed in the Ancient Saint World and fell into the Xuanhuang World. Now that it had returned, it could naturally grow once more.
A powerful life force was incomparably important. It was an important treasure for Lin Fan to survive.
Lin Fan also hoped that the Mythical Parasol Tree would grow quickly. As long as it did, there would be no place in this world that he could not go.
At the same time, Lin Fan still had no idea what "Firmament Blood" and "Heaven and Earth Sutra" were. He could only hope that they weren't too much of a scam.
When he obtained the Eternal Axe, the God Weapon, it was in an incomplete state. Therefore, according to the will of the God of War, the shards of the Eternal Axe were still in the Upper Realm.
If he could gather all of them, he would be able to form a true Divine Artifact.
Furthermore, according to the intentions of the God of War, if the Eternal Axe had yet to fuse into a true Legendary Weapon, he should never meet with the Highest of the Eight Great Ancient race beings. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to deal any damage to them at all.
Of course, this was still too far away for Lin Fan, so he didn't have to worry too much about it.
...
Meanwhile, in another house.
Xuan 'er lowered her head and stood in front of her grandfather. Her bright eyes were filled with grievance.
"Xuan 'er, you must respect him in the future, understand? You can't be rude, okay? "the village chief said patiently.
"Grandpa, why?" Xuan Er raised her head and asked.
"Because he is a human, the same race as Hero," the village chief said.
"Hero? But in my eyes, Grandpa is the hero. If not for Grandpa protecting this village, everyone would have died. " Xuan'er knew about her origins and knew that her parents were dead. She also knew that she was from the Fox Race.
The village chief shook his head and patted Xuan Er's head, "Grandpa isn't considered a hero. Ten thousand years ago, the Ancient race massacred all the other races, and no one dared to make a sound. No one dared to fight back either. However, the five heroes of the Human race fought against one of the Eight Great Ones of the Ancient race without any fear of death. That was a battle that shook the entire world …"
This was the first time that Xuan'er had heard of this matter. Thus, her heart was filled with curiosity. At the same time, she was filled with admiration toward those five heroes who had dared to resist.
"Grandpa, what happened next?" Xuan Er blinked her long eyelashes and asked.
"After that, no one knew that one of the The Highest of the Eight Great Ancient race had never appeared again. At the same time, those five heroes never appeared again. Therefore, you must remember this. If not for those five heroes, this region wouldn't have been liberated. And our village wouldn't have existed either. That's because no one would be able to live openly under the eyes of the The Highest of the Ancient race." The village chief said.
"And you must remember that he is of the same race as those five heroes. Even though the Human race has not appeared for a very, very long time now, we must carry on with our hearts of gratitude. Do you understand? Don't let the hearts of others turn cold. "The village chief continued.
Hearing the words of her grandpa, Xuan'er nodded her head eventually, "Xuan'er understands."
If the Supreme Being and the others were still alive right now, they might have died of shame upon hearing these words. Even though they were heroes, they had lured the Ancient One into the Xuanhuang World in order to preserve their last bit of hope. Even though they managed to suppress the Ancient One eventually, they sealed up the entire Xuanhuang World out of fear of the Ancient Saint World.
Eventually, the Heavenly Emperor Yuan was the only one who persisted on. He wanted to return to the Ancient Saint World and fight against the Ancient race one last time.
...
Within the house, Lin Fan was cultivating pills. Brother Da Vinco was almost depleted under his extravagant consumption. Thankfully, he still had plenty of medicinal herbs left.
Back when he ascended to the Upper World, Lin Fan had prepared sufficient medicinal herbs for emergencies.
In fact, the entire storage of medicinal herbs in Glory Sect was almost emptied out by Lin Fan.
'Pills Through Thought! '
A ball of flames rose up from Lin Fan's palms. This ball of flames did not have any heat. However, the temperature within it was absolutely horrifying.
'Brother Da Vinco, this is a godly pill that I can use to catch everyone off guard. But if there's a chance, I've got to modify it as well. The cultivation states of the Ancient Saint World are simply way too high. If I were to use the same pills from before, I might not be able to keep up with the power of them anymore.'
Looking at the pills coming out of the furnace one after another, Lin Fan had a thought in his mind.
However, he had yet to think of what kind of medicinal herbs he could add into it to create a new effect.
Suddenly, Lin Fan flipped his palms and extinguished the flames. He could sense that someone was approaching.
'Dong, dong …! '
"Please enter." Lin Fan called out.
'Creak …! '
Outside the door, a petite and adorable Xuan'er stood under the moonlight. That short, fluffy tail of hers was twirling behind her.
Xuan'er's head was lowered, and her hands were interlocked together as though she was extremely nervous.
"What's wrong?" Lin Fan felt that the background of this little fella was really pitiful. After all, there were many kids like her in the Ancient Saint World.
The moment they stepped foot into the lands of the Ancient Saint World, it meant that their lives were up to the heavens. After all, no one knew what would happen next.
"I … I …!" Xuan'er was a little nervous and embarrassed right now. It was as though there was something that was difficult for her to say. But when she caught sight of that calm smile on Lin Fan's face, Xuan'er mustered up her courage and spoke out loudly.
"I'm sorry …!"
These three words seemed to have used up all of Xuan'er's strength. That adorable little face of hers was flushed red as well.
The moment Lin Fan heard these words, he chuckled out. Just as he was about to say something, Xuan'er bolted off as though she was flying.
"What an adorable little fella." Looking at that figure that was getting further away, Lin Fan's lips curled into a smile.
From the start till now, even though this little fella had never been too friendly towards him, Lin Fan had never really placed her in his heart.
After all, she was just a kid.
Lin Fan flicked his robes and the wooden door shut once more.
In the dark of the night, the elderly figure of the village chief stood under the moonlight. Looking at everything in the distance, he let out a heartened smile.
A few days later …
Every single day, Lin Fan would venture deep into the mountains to hunt down those ancient beasts. As for the corpses of those beasts, they would be brought back by Lin Fan and distributed to the villagers.
The villagers were no longer wary of Lin Fan. At the same time, they were filled with respect towards Lin Fan.
From time to time, Xuan'er would appear before Lin Fan as well, as though she was waiting for something.
On this day, Lin Fan, who had just returned from the mountains, handed over the corpses of the ancient beasts to the villagers. Just as he was about to head back to cultivate, Xuan'er appeared not too far away from Lin Fan once more.
Xuan'er's head was lowered. However, her eyes would glance over at Lin Fan from time to time.
Looking at this, Lin Fan chuckled out.
Could it be that this lass wanted to make friends with him but was too embarrassed to do so? Hence, she would appear before him from time to time, hoping to attract his attention.
In the past couple of days, Lin Fan had no idea what this lass was up to when she appeared before his eyes.
But after thinking about it for a while, Lin Fan finally understood. So, this was the reason for all of this.
At this moment, Xuan'er was wandering around Lin Fan's side like a specter. She was a little unhappy in her heart. Did he not see her at all?
"Xuan'er …!" This time around, Lin Fan took the initiative to call out to her.
"Ah …!" The moment Xuan'er heard someone calling out to her, her heart leaped with joy. She then came before Lin Fan immediately.
"Oh, you called out to me? Do you want to be friends with me? But, if you really want to be friends with me, I won't reject you." Xuan'er's face was filled with anticipation.
Looking at this little brat who was only a meter tall, Lin Fan could not help but chuckle out.
What an interesting lass.
