My Master Only Breaks Through on the Edge of Death

There were over a dozen small animals, all of them illustrious and invincible demon venerables from the Demon World.

Even the weakest of them possessed strength comparable to a ranked venerable in the Elders Association.

These were not mere small animals; they represented half of the strength of the Demon World.

"I like to keep small animals, especially the stronger ones,"

"I heard that you humans are exterminating the demon clan, so I thought I'd help you out in the name of friendship between our two worlds," Red Lotus Venerable explained.

"There's no need to make excuses. I'll give you some face and let you take these three small animals with you."

Three miniature Seal Formations appeared under the three invincible demon venerables, which were then sealed into billiard ball-sized beads.

"Consider it a local specialty," Xu Fan tossed the three beads over.

At this time, the other sealed invincible Demon Venerables had all regained consciousness and looked around somewhat baffled by the situation before them.

Xu Fan, Ming Kong, and the pure-blooded Qilin could easily suppress all of them just by themselves.

Some of the Demon Venerables resigned themselves to their fate and lowered their heads, showing a "Do as you please" expression.

Red Lotus Venerable looked at the three sealed beads in her hand, somewhat unwilling to let go.

She came to this world, intending to collect more Demon Venerables to bring back to South Mountain World and strengthen the overall strength of the Human Clan.

"If you want to conquer the other two worlds, these invincible Demon Venerables can only play a supporting role. Bringing them along won't be much help," Xu Fan said.

"What fellow Daoist said is reasonable," Red Lotus Venerable nodded in agreement.

She glanced at the small animals she had painstakingly captured and her expression was slightly regretful.

"Please think carefully about our proposition to join hands. It would be a hundred benefits without a single harm," Red Lotus Venerable said before stepping into the void and leaving.

"The Human Clan of the South Mountain World is far stronger than those of us in the Feiyu Boundary," Ming Kong sighed emotionally.

"After accumulating for hundreds of thousands of years, only in their generation did they produce three Supreme Venerables."

"Red Lotus Venerable is the strongest among them," Xu Fan added.

"The glory of the Feiyu Boundary will be entrusted to the Elders Association," Xu Fan smiled,

He was not an ambitious man and had no interest in dominating the Cultivation World.

As long as his strength was strong enough, he would still be the only supreme in a world.

"I will not disappoint the Great Master's expectations," Ming Kong said solemnly.

"What should we do with these Demon Venerables?" Xu Fan looked at the remaining ten or so Invincible Demon Venerables.

"If the Great Master does not want them, I will take all the Demon Venerables back to the Elders Association," Ming Kong said.

"Go ahead and take them all. They're of no use to me here," Xu Fan waved his hand.

"Thank you, Great Master," Ming Kong exclaimed happily.

Subsequently, Ming Kong added another layer of seal on top of the ones set by Red Lotus Venerable, taking all of the invincible Demon Venerables back to the Elder Council Headquarters.

Xu Fan quietly made sure there was nothing wrong before removing his avatar.

By now, Red Lotus Venerable was already waiting for Xu Fan in the Welcoming Hall.

Seeing Xu Fan walk in, she smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, have you not considered unifying the Cultivation World and integrating your resources as a supreme of a world?"

"Didn't you and the other two fellows also failed to unify South Mountain World? You just maintained your positions with a loose alliance," Xu Fan countered.

"That's different. Our three Supreme Venerables control at least half of the resources in the South Mountain World."

"But, how much of a share does your Hidden Spirit sect have in all that? I'm afraid it's not even one-tenth," Red Lotus Venerable pointed out.

"The Middle Thousand Worlds is just a small pond where we are in transition.

Ultimately, we'll go to the vast sea,"

Red Lotus Venerable nodded, no longer dwelling on the matter.

"Think carefully about our proposal to work together," Red Lotus Venerable said as she prepared to connect to the cross-border transfer array back to South Mountain World in the underground space.

"If we were to join forces, what are your plans?" Xu Fan asked curiously.

"As long as you're with us, everything is negotiable,"

"We'll just draw out the Supremes of the other two worlds and join forces to kill them in the Star Region," Red Lotus Venerable explained.

When one's strength reaches a certain level, there would be no need to think so much. As long as the strongest is eradicated, the rest can be easily dealt with.

"Each of the other two worlds also has a Supreme, but they're just slightly weaker than me."

"Once the two Supremes join forces, my other two friends and I will have no chance," Red Lotus Venerable said.

"Have you ever considered that your three of you could restrain the other two Supremes, allowing the other venerables to invade the other two worlds?" Xu Fan suggested.

Upon hearing Xu Fan's words, Red Lotus Venerable gave him a "You must be joking" expression.

"The will of Heaven in the other two worlds won't just sit idly by; they'll definitely weaken the strength of the Human Clan once a large-scale battle ensues."

"In the end, it would be advantageous for the other two worlds," Red Lotus Venerable explained.

"I understand now. Thank you, fellow Daoist, for clearing up my doubts," Xu Fan nodded.

"I'll be heading back to South Mountain World now. If you ever decide to support us, you can come find us there," Red Lotus Venerable said before disappearing.

"Grape, create a small island especially for placing the cross-border transfer array," Xu Fan instructed.

"Understood, Master,"

At night, in Xu Fan's small courtyard, a fresh lamb leg was roasting on a pile of fruitwood charcoal.

The disciple of the Culinary Path occasionally used a special divine ability to stimulate the charcoal fire, making the lamb leg roast more evenly.

"Great Master, I have a doubt," said the disciple of the Culinary Path, who was roasting the lamb leg. Opportunities to consult the Great Master alone were rare.

"Go ahead."

"Can one become an Immortal by following the Culinary Path?"

"It's possible, but there's no path in this world. You'll have to forge it yourselves," Xu Fan replied leisurely.

For some reason, he felt like having roast leg of lamb today. So he called the disciples of the Culinary Path to show him their skills.

A wisp of inner fire was extracted from the charcoal fire by the eleventh disciple and drilled into the lamb's bones, roasting them from the inside out.

"This path is difficult, so it's better for you to practice both the Culinary Path and the sect's Five Elements Art," Xu Fan suggested.

He thought highly of the two disciples in the sect who followed the Culinary Path, but since there's no way in this world and both of them had already come a long way with their aptitude.

"If you want to create your own path, I support you,"

A plate of evenly sliced lamb leg sprinkled with cumin slowly floated in front of Xu Fan.

An iced beer appeared in Xu Fan's hand.

A bite of lamb leg and a sip of beer brought Xu Fan's thoughts back to a hot summer when lamb skewers were still one yuan each.

"Since my aptitude is mediocre, I can only practice both the Culinary Path and the Five Elements Art."

"Junior Song is more committed to the Culinary Path. I think he can create his own path, " said the disciple of the Culinary Path cutting the lamb leg slices.

"Your junior might have some potential. The spiritual power feast he came up with is quite interesting."

"If only he stopped making those fancy and elaborate dishes," Xu Fan thought of the Ten Thousand Brains Porridge that the other disciple of the Culinary Path had sent him last time.

The nourishing effect was good, but the taste was somewhat hard to describe.
