Treasure Gathering Immortal Furnace

Two years later.

Two years have passed since the spacecraft took off.

With the airship's terrifying speed, it had already flown over countless countries.

Lu Fan also diligently cultivated at the bottom of the flying boat for two years.

With the help of the spirit-gathering array beside him and the Golden Essence Pill he had consumed, his cultivation level had indeed improved considerably.

Moreover, Lu Fan also took the Soul Nourishing Pill, which raised his spiritual power to the level of Core Formation Perfection, and his True Qi Technique also improved significantly.

It's just a pity that he was never able to reach the level of Nascent Soul stage divine consciousness.

This is a matter of physical strength. The physical body cannot bear the divine sense of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator. If it is forcibly enhanced, it will definitely cause continuous damage to the physical body. Although he has the Heaven-Mending Furnace to recover, he can't go in to repair it every few days. No matter how much energy he has, it won't be enough to squander.

Lu Fan originally planned to refine the True Demon Eyeball in his storage bag after his divine sense was enhanced, so that it could also be used as a weapon to kill enemies.

However, his divine sense, which had reached the peak of Core Formation, was still unable to shake the True Demon's eyeball. The difficulty of refining it was extremely high, and if he were to forcibly refine it, it would likely take a lot of time, which would be a loss.

If he could reach the Nascent Soul stage of divine sense, he could probably refine it easily.

Of course, there's also the ancient treasure, the Celestial Dice, whose power increases with the strength of one's spiritual awareness.

According to Lu Fan's deduction, if he could reach the Nascent Soul stage of divine sense, this Heavenly Star Dice could unleash at least 80% to 90% of its terrifying power!

That's quite tempting.

"If I cultivate the True Qi Technique to the fourth level, my physical strength might increase significantly. If I could combine it with some rare and precious herbs that enhance physical strength, could I forcibly raise my spiritual sense to the Nascent Soul stage?" Lu Fan stroked his chin, pondering deeply.

This approach seems feasible, after all, he is only in the mid-stage of Core Formation and still has a long way to go before reaching Nascent Soul Formation. However, the Endless Sand Domain is fraught with danger, and only with strong divine sense can one detect danger in advance.

"After arriving in the Endless Sands, it seems we'll need to make some careful plans."

Just as Lu Fan made up his mind and continued to cultivate with his eyes closed.

boom!

Yi Yueying suddenly pushed open the tightly closed door on the lower floor, accompanied by a middle-aged man, who was one of her subordinates.

"Elder Yi! This matter can no longer be tolerated! Li Ku Sanren seems to be possessed, and has assassinated many rogue cultivators. If this continues, what credibility will my Hai Family Chamber of Commerce have left!" the middle-aged man said angrily.

After all, in a fixed space like a flying boat, to be honest, those rogue cultivators are actually no different from sheep, while Li Ku Sanren is a ferocious tiger who can kill whoever he wants.

In the past two years, he has killed hundreds of rogue cultivators and has probably earned a lot of spirit stones.

He still enjoys it immensely.

"Don't I know? What do you expect me to do? Fight him?" Yi Yueying frowned and said.

"I don't care anymore! I'll go talk to him. If he insists on this, when we get to the Endless Sands, I'll ask the Nascent Soul Ancestor of the Hai Family Merchant Guild to kill this bastard!" After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he turned around and went to find Li Ku Sanren.

"Haidong!" Yi Yueying immediately called out sternly to the middle-aged man.

Hai Dong's face was also ashen. This Yi Yueying was not a member of the Hai family, but an elder from another clan hired by the Hai family's Chamber of Commerce to serve as the head of the flying boat. Since she was an outsider, she naturally had no sense of belonging. Her duty was to ensure that the flying boat arrived safely in the Endless Sands. As for what happened during this period, as long as it was within an acceptable range, she could turn a blind eye.

But this one is different. His surname is Hai, and he is a direct descendant of the Hai family. Naturally, he cannot tolerate Li Ku Sanren ruining the reputation of his Hai family's Chamber of Commerce.

Seeing the two discussing the matter of Li Ku Sanren in front of him, Lu Fan became interested. He then slowly stood up and raised his hand to remove the isolation array.

"Gentlemen, over the past two years, you have allowed that demon to slaughter hundreds of rogue cultivators at will. You discovered this long ago but did not stop it. Now that we are about to reach the Endless Sand Domain, why create more trouble?" Lu Fan said slowly.

Upon hearing this, Hai Dong immediately objected, saying, "What do you mean we should let it go? I only found out recently; Elder Yi never mentioned it to me! If I had known earlier, I certainly wouldn't have let him act so recklessly!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Fan was stunned. He hadn't expected the situation inside the flying boat to be more complicated than he had imagined.

Yi Yueying probably only wanted to keep the airship running normally and didn't care about anything else.

The entire Haidong region seems genuinely keen to preserve the reputation of the Hai Family Chamber of Commerce.

After all, the Hai Family Chamber of Commerce used to make a fortune by trading with Canglan in the Endless Sands.

But once the news gets out that so many rogue cultivators died tragically on the flying boat, who would dare to ride on the Hai Family Chamber of Commerce's flying boats in the future?

"Oh, I see. But since things have come to this, I think it's best not to get involved and just wait a year," Lu Fan said.

"Kid! This isn't just ruining your reputation! You make it sound so easy!" Hai Dong noticed that Lu Fan was at the late Foundation Establishment stage and didn't give him a friendly look.

"This Li Ku Sanren will die sooner or later, so I don't care about this short time. But since I'm here, I won't let you do anything reckless. I don't want to die here before we even reach the Endless Sands," Lu Fan said slowly.

Lu Fan's goal was simple: to get through this last year peacefully and reach the Endless Sands. At that time, no one would escape the reckoning.

The first one is naturally Li Ku Sanren. For the past two years, every time he comes to the lower levels, he mocks and threatens him.

Lu Fan remained patient throughout, but patience did not mean letting go. In his eyes, Li Ku Sanren was already a dead man.

The second one is naturally Yi Yueying, who tricked him into coming down. Of course, Lu Fan won't kill her, since she doesn't have any ill intentions. After giving her a little warning, she will naturally be useful in the future.

"Heh, you won't let me do whatever I want? You're just a Foundation Establishment cultivator, you've got quite the nerve!" Hai Dong laughed immediately. After all, he was only at the mid-stage of Core Formation, so he naturally looked down on Lu Fan.

In truth, these main Core Formation cultivators all had their own purposes at this moment.

Lu Fan's goal was simply to safely reach the Endless Sands; nothing else mattered.

As for Yi Yueying, all she wanted to do was ensure the safety of the airship and prevent it from exploding or being destroyed midway; that was her duty.

Hai Dong was determined to preserve the reputation of the Hai Family Chamber of Commerce and did not want Li Ku Sanren to continue his evil deeds.

As for Li Ku Sanren, he simply wanted to make a fortune from this accident and feast before reaching the Endless Sands.

"What this fellow Daoist said is right. There are still eight months before the flying boat passes through the teleportation gate. We should at least wait until we pass through the teleportation gate before we can talk about anything," Yi Yueying said.

"Hahaha! I think we don't need to wait through the portal. If Fellow Daoist Hai is dissatisfied with me, feel free to voice it, and I will humbly accept it!"

As a cheerful voice rang out, it was seen that not far away, Li Ku Sanren strode over with three mid-stage Core Formation cultivators!
