Chapter 300: Chapter 300: The Mysterious Spiritual Ring
He doubted if he was seeing things.
Wasn’t Jiang Fan being hunted by the Sect Master?
The disciples were still searching the entire city for him.
How could he have taken a mission from the Desires Sect?
He fixed his eyes on it, his face turning incredibly shocked.
He saw, written clearly in the information column: “Disciple of the Green Cloud Sect, Jiang Fan.”
Who else could this be but Jiang Fan?
Yue Mingzhu’s ears twitched.
She now had a reflex reaction to the name “Jiang Fan.”
Upon hearing this name, she frowned and said, “Why are you mentioning him? Do you have information on him?”
She felt utterly powerless regarding Jiang Fan.
The entire sect had been mobilized to search for a whole night, and they couldn’t even find a trace of him.
They had nearly turned the ground over trying to find him.
She really didn’t know where that bastard was hiding.
Xie Liushu was struck speechless by shock, pointing repeatedly at the register he was holding.
Yue Mingzhu’s eyebrows furrowed deeper: “Are you mute?”
“The sect is asking you a question. Why are you just pointing at the register?”
Xie Liushu, shaking all over, finally managed to speak, stammering:
“Jiang Fan… is on the register…”
Hmm?
Jiang Fan’s name was on the register?
Yue Mingzhu absolutely didn’t believe it, snatching the register and saying, “If your eyes don’t work, you should donate them.”
“How could Jiang Fan’s information appear here?”
“Every identity here has to be verified…”
As she spoke, Yue Mingzhu’s eyes widened gradually.
“Disciple of the Green Cloud Sect, Jiang Fan” — those seven characters were clearly reflected in her eyes.
She could hardly believe her eyes.
Jiang Fan had really taken a mission from the Desires Sect?
How could this be possible?
She searched everywhere for Jiang Fan and found no trace of him, yet he had the audacity to sneak into the Desires Sect to take a mission?
How did he do it?
Yue Mingzhu came back to her senses, pointing at Jiang Fan’s name, and shouted, “Outrageous!”
“Are all the people in the Task Hall blind?”
“Jiang Fan came to take a mission, and none of you recognized him, letting him succeed?”
“This will be a laughingstock if word gets out!”
The disciple who returned the register, looking distressed, said, “Sect Master, the six tasks listed were all arranged by Elder Ling. I… I didn’t know they were for Jiang Fan.”
Elder Ling?
How could she have arranged tasks for Jiang Fan?
If she saw Jiang Fan, she would certainly have captured him and handed him over for punishment.
Wait!
Yue Mingzhu suddenly thought of something, her fingers trembling as she pointed at Jiang Fan’s signature: “Did the person in the carriage sign this name?”
The disciple nodded and said, “Yes, the register was passed around inside the carriage, and it came out with six names.”
Thump, thump, thump—
Yue Mingzhu’s body swayed, stepping back several times.
She weakly held onto the table, feeling the world spinning!
That masked man, the one she called a fellow Daoist.
He was none other than Jiang Fan!!!
She had stumbled upon his carriage by chance, yet didn’t know it was Jiang Fan!
Not only that.
She even let the Great Elder send him away!
She let him take a mission under her very nose and walked away swaggering!
Yue Mingzhu felt a metallic taste in her throat.
She was so furious she almost spat blood!
She extended a trembling finger and said, “Chase! Chase him down for me!!!”
“Even if you have to chase him to the ends of the earth, bring him back!”
The disciple, trembling with fear, said, “Sect Master, the Great Elder has already left Desires City by now.”
“For safety, their route is kept secret.”
“I’m afraid we won’t be able to catch up.”
Upon hearing this.
Yue Mingzhu, in a fit of rage, overturned the table, her heaving chest rising and falling.
She screamed in frustration: “Jiang Fan! Jiang Fan!! Just you wait!!!”
No one had ever made her this angry.
Never!
Now about Jiang Fan.
A sudden chill ran down his spine, and he couldn’t help but shrink his neck.
“Weird, is someone cursing me?”
He muttered to himself.
Only after confirming he had completely left Desires City did he feel at ease.
He saw that Ji Ruyue and the others were meditating with their eyes closed.
He had a thought.
Reaching into his robe, he motioned to the Little Qilin, saying, “Take out that green Spirit Light.”
Previously, there had been too many eyes around, and it hadn’t been convenient.
Now he could finally take a proper look at this green Spirit Light he had obtained from the Nascent Soul Cave Mansion.
As his palm cooled, Jiang Fan felt something materialize in his hand.
Taking it out, he couldn’t help but be surprised.
It was an emerald ring, emitting a ghostly green light.
On the base of the ring, two small characters were engraved.
“Infinite?”
Jiang Fan murmured, putting it on his finger and trying to infuse it with Spiritual Power.
But apart from the ring becoming a bit greener, there was no other change.
“Strange, shouldn’t a typical Magic Artifact reveal its properties when infused with Spiritual Power?”
“Could this ring be just an ordinary one?”
However, thinking of that miser who, even at death’s door, tried to swallow it to hide it.
This indicated that this must be the most important treasure in the Nascent Soul Cave Mansion.
With this in mind.
He opened the curtain and saw a vast plain surrounding them.
He wanted to find an unlucky tree to practice on, but there wasn’t one in sight.
At a loss, he could only look to the sky.
Watching the floating clouds.
He extended his hand with the ring on it, gently pointing upwards.
The ring did not emit any special wave.
This left Jiang Fan a bit frustrated: “No way? Did I go through all that trouble with Yue Mingzhu for a dud?”
However.
Just at that moment!
An astonishing scene unfolded!
The layers of clouds overhead seemed to be subjected to an immense gravitational force!
With a loud crash, they fell from the sky, hitting the ground and turning into dense mist, flowing in all directions!
This scene.
Caused Elder Ling, who was driving the carriage, to narrow her eyes. She immediately stood up and called out, “Who is the esteemed expert here? Please show yourself!”
To pull the clouds down from the sky.
What sort of divine skill was this?
She had never heard of it!
The people inside the carriage were also startled awake, looking in amazement at the bizarre scene before them.
“The clouds can be pulled down?”
“What sort of immortal technique is this?”
Jiang Fan was dazed for a moment.
Was this his doing just now?
It seemed the gravity around that cloud had increased significantly, causing it to crash down.
He looked at the emerald ring and considered the word “Infinite.”
He vaguely understood the ring’s function.
It could alter gravity!
He was inwardly delighted; this was a trump card that could catch others off guard.
When facing an invincible enemy, suddenly making them bear enormous gravity could at least restrict their actions.
At most, it could crush them to death!
As expected, nothing left behind by a Nascent Soul Great Power was simple!
However, Jiang Fan soon noticed that the ring, which had previously been emerald green, had dulled significantly.
Evidently, this ring required a considerable amount of Spiritual Power to activate once.
It couldn’t be used indiscriminately.
But this still made Jiang Fan very happy.
He pretended not to know anything, jumping out of the carriage and looking around in surprise: “What happened?”
Elder Ling said solemnly, “A powerful expert has made a move.”
“That strike just now, even a mid-stage Core Formation martial artist might not withstand it.”
Jiang Fan rubbed his chin.
He had a preliminary understanding of the destructive power of gravity attacks.
He said, “Then let’s hurry and get out of here.”
“So as not to disturb that expert.”
However, Elder Ling slightly frowned.
“If we want to leave, I’m afraid it won’t be easy.”
She gazed into the distance.
A colossal plume of dust, like a yellow dragon soaring to the sky.
Came into view!
Jiang Fan looked closely.
It was a group of disciples in uniform attire.
Their chests all bore a thunder pattern emblem.
Could this be the legendary True Thunder Sect, the most mysterious of the Nine-Sect?
But very quickly.
Jiang Fan’s pupils contracted.
Because, among those disciples.
He saw a figure all too familiar!
