Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 945 - 473: Destiny’s Favor, Dreams Come True (2)

He had been aware of Profound Abyss City for a long while, yet his intense focus on cultivation prevented a personal visit; thus, he merely dispatched a single doppelganger to scout the area and casually imprint the space coordinates.

In the end, should any unforeseen crisis emerge, the Gate of the Void would serve as his swift means of retreat.

Hence, upon reaching any unknown location, he habitually scattered space coordinates in every direction.

This reflects the proverb that a wary rabbit prepares three burrows.

Evidently, such vigilance granted him a multitude of getaway options.

Now, he simply required his doppelganger within Profound Abyss City to alert them about Daoist Cold Cicada, thereby fulfilling his scheme of borrowing a blade to eliminate the foe.

Boom~~

Right then, a tremor in Jiang Fan's mind prompted him to trigger the Life Talisman he bore—the Withered Wood Spring Charm.

The talisman swiftly integrated into the gravely wounded Xu Chenyang.

In a flash, Xu Chenyang, who had been on the verge of collapse from his wounds, restored himself to peak condition, much like parched timber blooming anew in spring.

The surging vital essence rapidly mended all the damage across his form.

"Thank you, Lord."

Xu Chenyang gazed at Jiang Fan with deep gratitude, sensing that his bodily harms had vanished entirely.

Such a method felt utterly wondrous.

"It's nothing, just a small effort."

Jiang Fan dismissed it with a casual wave.

"Lord, these foes hail from Snow Peak Village's band of Tribulation Cultivators."

"They are ruthless and hold grudges fiercely."

"Having subdued them, expect retaliation from Snow Peak Village."

Xu Chenyang warned.

He marveled at this Lord's formidable might.

In a single clash, he had overpowered numerous Tribulation Cultivators, including several Divinity Transformation experts.

Yet Snow Peak Village boasts the backing of Void Refining Cultivators.

That represents a horrifying power.

Regardless of Lord Jiang's prowess, challenging a Void Refining Cultivator could prove daunting.

These remarks stirred concern among the other villagers as well.

For they all understood the dreadfulness of the faction supporting Snow Peak Village.

"No need to fret; they shall vanish before long."

"They pose no danger to us anymore."

Jiang Fan offered a faint smile to ease their fears.

"Yes, Lord."

Xu Chenyang let out a relieved breath upon hearing this.

He recognized that this Lord before him never uttered empty words. If he voiced such confidence, it implied strong assurance.

Still, Snow Peak Village had long been a infamous haven for Tribulation Cultivators, perpetrating endless atrocities.

Bolstered by Void Refining Cultivators.

Confronting them won't be as straightforward as one might think.

"That said, our village numbers keep swelling."

"This cavern grows too cramped by the day."

"We must seek a fresh dwelling spot."

Jiang Fan mused aloud, pondering a relocation.

After all, their group had already surpassed a thousand souls.

As time passed, the populace could expand further.

Cramming everyone into a cave forever wasn't feasible.

"Lord, during these recent months, we've surveyed the nearby lands."

"And uncovered a secluded valley."

"Encircled by peaks, it could house up to a hundred thousand easily."

"Ideal for founding a new settlement."

Xu Chenyang shared with enthusiasm.

"Oh? Let's inspect it."

"If it fits, we'll establish our base there."

Jiang Fan rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

He aimed to carve out his influence within the Ice Prison.

As an ancient confinement from the Immortal Realm, this realm brimmed with profound mysteries.

Even absent hidden treasures, the abundant resources here alone would tempt endless cultivators.

Take the plentiful Immortal Stones scattered throughout the Ice Prison, for instance.

Unearthing those would yield boundless riches.

Thus, erecting a city in this domain made perfect sense.

And a modest village marked the initial step in forging his dominion over the Ice Prison.

......

At the same time, within Profound Abyss City.

This grand metropolis loomed large in the Ice Prison, its inhabitants numbering in the millions.

The ruler, Daoist Xuan Yuan, stood as a celebrated Integration Cultivator.

Even the fiends of Demon Flame City shrank from direct conflict with Profound Abyss City.

Thanks to this reputation, Profound Abyss City drew throngs of cultivators.

A great many dwellers reached Divinity Transformation or Void Refining stages.

Nearly every elite cultivator pursuing higher realms flocked here, hunting breakthroughs and fortunes.

Just now, one of Jiang Fan's doppelgangers slipped into Profound Abyss City.

He headed straight for the City Lord's Mansion, claiming vital intelligence to share.

As a Divinity Transformation Cultivator, his assertion held considerable sway.

Had he been a mere Nascent Soul or lower, scant attention would follow.

Guards at the City Lord's Mansion might have shooed him off outright.

But his Divinity Transformation status altered everything.

In Profound Abyss City, he ranked among the upper echelons.

This underscores cultivation's vital role; only true power commands respect.

"What? You've located Daoist Cold Cicada's hideout?"

"That scoundrel lurks in the Ice Crystal Mountain Range, at Snow Peak Village?"

"And he's obtained the Soul Fruit, on the cusp of Integration breakthrough?!"

"Is this information accurate?!"

The speaker was Elder Fu Yu, a Void Refining powerhouse from Profound Abyss City. Normally, an external Divinity Transformation Cultivator like this wouldn't gain entry to the City Lord's Mansion, yet Elder Fu Yu felt an odd impulse to receive him.

To his astonishment, the revelation proved explosive.

For Daoist Cold Cicada ranked as a infamous fugitive in Profound Abyss City.

This villain had wrought countless depravities to fuel his cultivation ascent.
