My Master Only Breaks Through on the Edge of Death

Chapter 667: Chapter 640: Pretending to be the Invincible Monster Venerable

"When did you find out that Xiao Ling has feelings for Sui Ying?" Xu Fan asked curiously.

"It started when Ling'er became obsessed with controlling puppets." Wang Yulun said, the expression on his face as if someone was about to steal the cabbages he grew himself.

"Worrying about it here won't help; I'll divine their marriage fate for you," Xu Fan suggested after some thought.

Two light curtains appeared, each displaying their Eight Characters of Birth.

Xu Fan glanced at them and then closed his eyes.

"It's a good match, though it might take a bit longer than usual. But other than that, there's nothing to worry about," Xu Fan said with a smile.

"How much longer?"

"Probably a few thousand years. The marriage fate indicates the presence of 'star and moon often together,' which might have been two or three years, or at most ten years, for mortals."

"It's hard to say for cultivators."

Wang Yulun nodded and then suddenly seemed to think of something.

"Brother Xu, can I put the Dao Artifact Set that you had prepared for Sui Ying on a puppet that I can control?" Wang Yulun asked.

Upon hearing this, Xu Fan immediately understood what his good brother meant.

"Of course, you can. Then you can have a proper meeting with your future son-in-law."

"However, that Dao Artifact Set has a system for controlling puppets, which is similar to automatic battle," Xu Fan said with a smile.

"But when you're fighting, you still have to be careful. Sui Ying is our Hidden Spirit Sect's number one Tianjue Master. It's not a good idea to fight him recklessly. It's best to switch to full-auto mode," Xu Fan cautioned him, afraid that his good brother might fail.

"Brother Xu knows me so well," Wang Yulun said emotionally.

While Xu Fan and Wang Yulun were enjoying their conversation, suddenly Xu Fan received a report from Pu Tao.

"The Invincible Monster Venerable hasn't gone far. He is about to transform into a human cultivator and sneak into Linsen Immortal City that's a hundred thousand miles away."

Upon hearing Pu Tao's report, Xu Fan immediately became excited.

"You wouldn't take the path to Heaven~"

Xu Fan directly took five Mahayana stage puppets and a large number of Nascent Soul Stage puppets, and flew in the direction indicated by Pu Tao.

At this moment, the Invincible Monster Venerable disguised as a cultivator was a hundred thousand miles away, with a cold expression on his face.

"When did a sect capable of competing with the Invincible Venerable appear among the human race?"

"Now that I have discovered it, your territory will become the hunting ground for the Demon Clan." Hate flashed through the Invincible Monster Venerable's eyes.

They had captured the entire beast warship fleet led by him without any loss, all except himself. All the other demons he had brought with him were exterminated.

If he went back, the Monster Venerables in Four Phases City would surely eat him alive.

"You only know how to play with puppets, right? Once I sneak into your sect, I'll personally slaughter you all."

As the Invincible Monster Venerable spoke, he surveyed the environment, retracted his aura, added a few wounds to his body, and took out a slightly broken treasure spirit sword before flying towards the distant immortal city.

It was not his first time doing such a thing. He was extremely confident in his disguise as a human cultivator.

Back then, in order to play this role well, he had searched the souls of many human cultivators for their memories.

Just as he, satisfied with his disguise, flew towards Linsen Immortal City, Xu Fan had already set up numerous large formations along his route.

A light curtain appeared in front of Xu Fan, and the Invincible Monster Venerable, disguised as a cultivator, appeared on it.

"Pu Tao, you really are skilled. I initially thought you were just using vague positioning, making it harder for him to detect."

"But I didn't expect you to be so precise." Xu Fan smiled as he looked at the Monster Venerable who was disguised as a cultivator on the screen, whose hair was clearly visible.

"The last time Master told me to improve my detection method, I changed it to a Wu Ling model. With the help of Master's merit and destiny, he hasn't noticed it yet," Pu Tao explained.

"Yes, when there's time, I'll have No. 1 refine a specifically detecting Immortal Tool and install it in your core," said Xu Fan.

"Thank you, Master."

"I must say, my apprentice borrowed this item just in time for it to play a significant role in both occasions."

It was precisely because Xu Fan had the cube Han Feiyu lent him that he could teleport to this location so quickly.

"Master, there has been a bit of progress in the research on the cube," said Pu Tao.

"What progress?"

A small spatial teleportation array appeared in front of Xu Fan, and a tiny jade stone ring emerged from it.

"Wear this ring, and it will shield against the space seal, allowing for unimpeded spatial teleportation," said Pu Tao.

Xu Fan put on the jade stone ring, and instantly felt the sealed space was being unsealed.

"This way, there's no need to consume computational power to enhance the teleportation body," Pu Tao explained.

"Why didn't you use it just now then?"

"Wasn't it because Master was in a hurry~"

At this moment, ten thousand miles away from the big formation laid by Xu Fan, a shaky escaping light was flying leisurely in the direction of Linsen Immortal City.

The escaping light, shaking and nearly falling, looked as if a gust of wind could blow it down.

Xu Fan quietly admired the Invincible Monster Venerable's performance from within the big formation.

"I must say, it looks quite convincing. If it were any ordinary Immortal City, they might be deceived," Xu Fan laughed.

"That would never happen in Linsen Immortal City. According to Master's order, every mortal and cultivator has been issued an ID card, each with a unique serial number."

"As soon as a cultivator without an ID card appears in Linsen Immortal City, an alarm will sound."

Hearing Pu Tao's self-complimentary tone, Xu Fan laughed.

"I don't have anything in my hands to help you advance either," Xu Fan laughed.

"Master, there are currently three Immortal Artifact Level Gathering Spirits Array cores in the sect, which is a bit wasteful. Can one be allocated to Pu Tao specifically to support computational power?"

"So it's this, take it and use it. Anyway, that Star-eating Snake won't need so much spiritual power for a while," Xu Fan said casually.

Good things are meant to be used; keeping them unused would be a waste.

At this moment, a wave of spiritual fluctuation swept through.

"This Invincible Monster Venerable belongs to the easier-to-deal-with type, focusing on physical strength and supplemented with soul cultivation."

"When it comes to fighting, it's pure brute force, looking more like a demon," said Xu Fan with a smirk.

Five Mahayana puppets were ready to go behind Xu Fan.

"The Nine Swords Venerable is said to be ranked in the top twenty-five. I wonder how many places this Invincible Monster Venerable can rank in the Elders Association?"

When Xu Fan controlled the puppets to ambush the Invincible Monster Venerable, the latter merely dodged the attack and then teleported away without showing his true combat power.

"It probably won't be too strong; otherwise, it wouldn't be controlling a Giant Beast Warship," Xu Fan speculated.

Xu Fan had destroyed quite a few Giant Beast Warships, and the combat power of the Demon Venerables driving them was also average.

Some even used secret methods to forcefully raise their strength to the Demon Venerable level.

Such Demon Venerables can be easily killed by a Mahayana puppet or even the previous Zhan Ling.

This Invincible Monster Venerable was the only relatively stronger one controlling a Giant Beast Warship that Xu Fan had encountered.

"Let's wait a little longer. Looking at this demon's attitude, it obviously wants to fly to Linsen Immortal City at this speed."
