Chapter Seventy-Three Don't Talk Nonsense

  Inside the small courtyard, in Kong Fang's room,

  Kong Fang and Fang Tou both sat on a chair.

  Square Head's eyes shone brightly as he gazed at Kong Fang in adoration. Previously, Square Head had admired Kong Fang's equipment-refining abilities, for despite having only an Earth-elemental innate talent, his skills surpassed many of the inner sect disciples who possessed Fire-elemental innate talents. However, after witnessing the battle just now, Square Head's admiration transformed into worship.

  Although having strong equipment-making abilities can elevate one's status, making it even more special, true power is the foundation of a person. Fang Tou joined the Equipment Sect, but his real dream was to step into the path of cultivation and possess great strength from then on. Today, watching Kong Fang's battle for the first time, Fang Tou's heart suddenly became excited beyond control, because he saw his own dreams in Kong Fang - that is, using great power to sweep away enemies.

  "Senior brother not only has extremely strong equipment refining abilities, but unexpectedly his actual strength is even more terrifying, and even Li Sen who has been cultivating for several years is far from being senior brother's match." In one aspect, achieving such accomplishments would be enough to be proud of, but Kong Fang excels in both equipment refining and cultivation, which makes Fang Tou's admiration grow even stronger.

  This is still unknown to Fang Tou that Kong Fang has already succeeded in refining the lower-grade Heaven Spirit Treasure. If he were to find out that Kong Fang had achieved in just half a year what Sun Hao, who was hailed as a genius, took two years to accomplish, his expression would surely be priceless.

  Kong Fang didn't know what Fang Tou was thinking in his heart, but even if he did, he wouldn't care. Kong Fang asked him what had happened during the time he was away, and Fang Tou honestly replied one by one. Actually, nothing much had happened during this period except for Li Sen constantly coming to find trouble.

  After all, Kong Fang had only been away for a day and a night, and nothing major would have happened in such a short time. Yet, Kong Fang couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia in his heart, as the events that had transpired over the past day and night were numerous, giving him the illusion that a long time had passed.

  At first, he lay in ambush for Zhao Yong in the stronghold of the bandits. Finally, he waited for Zhao Yong and eliminated this hidden danger, but unexpectedly was sent to Qianlong Lake by the Thousand Mile Earth Symbol. He carefully tried to escape from Qianlong Lake, but coincidentally encountered people from other sects who had stolen the young dragon Long Xun. In order to save Long Xun, he had to fight with them again.

  If Long Xun was rescued, Kong Fang took advantage of the opportunity to escape from Qianlong Lake with Jin Fengyu, and the result was still quite satisfactory.

  But unexpectedly, at the last moment, many half-blooded dragon and water-walking monster intercepted him, and due to a misunderstanding, he almost died under the claws of the half-blooded dragon. The events that followed are still unbelievable for Kong Fang, even now. The dragon he saved turned out to be a bloodline-reverted divine beast, and in a daze, he became the benefactor of the entire half-blooded dragon clan, and also obtained a precious drop of divine blood from the legendary Dragon King.

  Although all these things happened in just one day, the various coincidences and incredible encounters made Kong Fang feel as if a long time had passed.

  A moment later,

  "You go cultivate." Kong Fang said with a smile.

  "Brother, get a good rest. Tomorrow you'll be competing with Tianji Hall's Su Yun in the trial of forging equipment. Take care of your spirit and sweep away the disciples of Tianji Hall to bring glory to our Huoyun Hall." Fang Tou said with a smile, filled with confidence in Kong Fang, feeling that there was nothing Kong Fang couldn't do.

  Kong Fang smiled faintly and nodded, he had no good feelings towards Su Yun and Luo Qing, especially the latter whom he detested even more, so he didn't mind taking this opportunity to teach them a lesson.

  Fang Tou pushed open the door and walked out. At this time, a shouting voice came from outside the small courtyard, calling out to Fang Tou. The voice was not loud and would not affect those who were in deep meditation.

  Kong Fang recognized that the voice was Sun Hao's and involuntarily stood up and walked out of the room. At this time, Fang Tou had already run over and opened the courtyard gate.

  Fang Tou bowed to Sun Hao and then welcomed him in. Fang Tou still had great respect for Sun Hao. Not to mention the relationship between Sun Hao and Kong Fang, even the small detail of shouting just now made Fang Tou feel good.

  "It's so late, yet you've come to my place, Brother Kong. Are you also here to discuss the art of refining equipment with me?"

  When Sun Hao heard Kong Fang's words, a hint of confusion appeared on his face, while Fang Tou, who had just closed the courtyard door, couldn't help but burst out laughing. He obviously thought of Li Sen and Yin Wanshui, who had come to find fault under the pretext of discussing the art of refining instruments.

  If it weren't for the followers of the two who came to take them away, Li Sen and Yin Wanshui would have really crawled back as Gong Fang said.

  Kong Fang invited Sun Hao into the room and waved his hand for Fang Tou to go cultivate.

  After the two sat down, Sun Hao asked in surprise: "When I came over just now, I saw Li Sen and Yin Wanshui being carried by their followers to their residence, both of them looked seriously injured. What happened?"

  Kong Fangbian recounted the previous events, but omitted his departure from Qizong and only mentioned that he had suddenly gained insight into the art of alchemy, entering a deeper state of contemplation, and therefore did not notice the two inferior men for the time being.

  After Kong Fang merged with the essence and blood of the Dragon King, his control over the earth element became more adept, and his equipment refinement level naturally rose to new heights, even if he said it was a sudden enlightenment, he wouldn't be afraid of being exposed.

  After hearing Kong Fang's words, Sun Hao's eyes also flashed with anger. "These two are really despicable. Fortunately, they didn't ruin the method of refining equipment that my junior brother had comprehended. Otherwise, even if my junior brother let them off, Qingfeng Elder would never forgive them."

  "By the way, Brother Kong, what brings you here so late?" asked Fang with a smile.

  Sun Hao's expression suddenly became excited as he nodded, "Junior brother, you have been in seclusion to comprehend the art of alchemy and may not know that today during the day, a golden light suddenly appeared. This golden light flew directly onto the Qian Du Peak where the Sect Master resides and entered the Sect Master's palace. Afterwards, I went to ask Qing Fan Elder about this matter, junior brother, you will definitely be unable to guess what I found out."

  Kong Fang secretly smiled to himself, today's strong visitor to the Qizong was another golden light, apart from Long Xun's Dragon King, who else could it be? However, Kong Fang's face didn't reveal a hint of emotion, instead he intentionally put on a puzzled expression.

  "Old Master Qingfan told me that the golden light is the legendary dragon king of Qianlong Lake, whose cultivation has reached the realm of Tongshen, extremely terrifying. A strong man in the realm of Tongshen, just thinking about it makes people excited." Sun Hao's eyes were filled with excitement and yearning.

  "Dragon King of Divine Beast?" Kong Fang's face showed a perfectly timed look of surprise.

  "Ah, the Realm of Spiritual Enlightenment! Brother, it's a divine beast! Such a powerful being must have some extraordinary abilities that can penetrate heaven and earth. If we could meet such a strong person and get their guidance on our cultivation, we would definitely benefit greatly."

  "Then, Brother, you can go to Qian Du Peak to find Dragon King." Kong Fang said with a smile.

  Xīng xī de sūn hào dùn shí xiè qì le, "zhè yàng qiáng zhě qǐ shì shuō jiàn jiù néng jiàn de, wǒ yě jiù shì shuō shuō, zhēn dào le zhè yàng qiáng zhě miàn qián wǒ kě néng lián dà qì dōu bù gǎn xuē, gèng bù yào shuō ràng rén jiā diǎn bó wǒ xiū liàn le. Kuàng jiǎ, jiù yǐ wǒmen xiàn zài yǒng yǒu de èr, sān xīng hún liàn zhī fǎ hái yǒu wǔ xīng xiū liàn gōng fǎ, nà zhǒng qiáng zhě gēn běn dōu bù huì fàng zài yǎn lǐ, yòu qǐ huì diǎn bó wǒmen. Bì jìng, lóng wáng kě shì hé wǒmen qì zōng zōng zhǔ suǒ yú tóng yī gē jí de qiáng zhě."

  "Originally, the Sect Master was in the Ming Shen realm, according to what the original secret pavilion master said 20,000 years ago. It's been 20,000 years and he has only just reached the Tong Shen realm, I wonder if this cultivation speed is fast or slow?" Kong Fang thought to himself.

  Without a large number of strong people for comparison, Kong Fang also cannot determine whether the 20,000-year period from breaking through to Ming Shen Realm to Tong Shen Realm is fast or slow.

  "I don't even know what kind of powerful person would suddenly come to our sect?" Sun Hao's eyes were full of curiosity.

  Kong Fang smiled slightly and said: "It's possible that they want to unite with our sect to attack a certain sect, who knows."

  "Junior brother, don't talk nonsense. How could Qianlong Lake possibly be involved in the struggle for power on land?" Sun Hao directly took Kong Fang's words as nonsense and didn't believe them at all.
