Chapter 533: Chapter 505: Wealth Can Connect to God

Like a sudden epiphany, Lu Fan was ecstatic, murmuring to himself, “I see, I see!”

However, moments later, his excitement turned into disappointment, “beating Nascent Soul with a Gold Core, it’s impossible for me!”

He stared blankly into space, with his arms stretched out before him, muttering, “I must see Lord Heavenly Venerable. I must figure out a way…”

Seeing him increasingly distressed, Li Fan couldn’t help but voice out, “Brother Lu…”

Before he could finish his words, Lu Fan suddenly stood and flew straight out of the tavern, shouting out loud, “Lu Fan from the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, Misthaven Sea Martial Arts Hall, is here! Who dares to challenge me!”

The moment he finished speaking, Li Fan on the scene was stunned.

The previously bustling streets of Weichang City fell silent in an instant.

Only Lu Fan’s defiant silhouette remained, standing proudly in the sky.

After a brief silence, the crowd erupted into chaos.

“How dare a mere Gold Core cultivator utter such words!”

“Are all the cultivators from the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals this bold?”

“Since when does the scum from the Immortal Alliance dare to boast within the Five Elders Organization!” raged a Yuan Ying cultivator with a burly figure and full beard, who flew in front of Lu Fan ready to give him a severe beating.

Lu Fan, however, was not completely out of his wits, crying out, “I’m a Gold Core, you’re a Nascent Soul. Does the Five Elders Organization always like to bully the weak?”

“Sure, we can fight, but let a Gold Core cultivator come!”

With Lu Fan’s strategic guidance, his voice quickly spread throughout Weichang City.

“You…” The Yuan Ying cultivator was suddenly at a loss for words, his facial expression shifting before finally deciding not to attack rashly.

Returning to the ground, he turned his head towards the crowd and yelled, “Where are the Gold Core cultivators of Canhong State, are they all dead?”

The crowd quickly reacted.

A young blue-robed cultivator flew forward, “I am Qiu Juemo from Luoyan Gang, may Brother Lu enlighten me!”

He made a slight bow and without waiting for Lu Fan’s response, he immediately aimed a flying sword at Lu Fan’s face.

The blue Sword Light was silent and suddenly arrived.

Fortunately, Lu Fan responded quickly, managing to dodge the Flying Sword attack.

“You ambushed me,” Lu Fan’s face showed a hint of anger.

“A life and death struggle requires our full strength. There is no such thing as ambushing. Be careful!” With Qiu Juemo’s yell, thirty-three Sword Lights separated from the Flying Sword, forming a Sword Array that resembled a fierce tiger, attacking Lu Fan.

Lu Fan snorted coldly, a faint bronze glow emanated around his body, and his figure swelled several times in an instant.

An abacus suddenly appeared in his hand, Lu Fan gently flicked it, making a clattering sound.

“All in the world strive for profit!” As he murmured, a bronze coin would appear out of thin air every time he moved the beads.

In an instant, thirty-three bronze coins were formed, drawing green rays in the air, successively intercepting the Flying Tiger Sword Array.

Qiu Juemo’s face changed slightly, he had an inkling that something was wrong. He tried to manipulate the Sword Array to avoid the seemingly strange bronze coins.

But the green light was incredibly fast, and in almost an instant, it had collided with the thirty-three flying swords.

There was no earth-shattering collision sound. The bronze coins disappeared as soon as they touched the Flying Swords.

Next moment…

“Not good!” Before Qiu Juemo could finish his sentence, the thirty-three Flying Swords turned around in mid-air.

The Flying Tiger Sword Array, which was originally under his control, was now attacking him.

And even faster than before.

Taken by surprise, the thirty-three Sword Lights pierced through his body.

Blood gushed out instantly, Qiu Juemo’s body wobbled, and in the end, he couldn’t hold on and fell to the ground.

The Flying Tiger Sword Array also lost its control and fell to the ground.

The spectators were shocked and gasped.

“You’re too kind!” Lu Fan tucked the abacus behind him and said arrogantly.

“Brother Qiu!” Qiu Juemo’s friend rushed to check on him, only to find that Lu Fan had spared his life at the last moment.

“He’s a disgrace! Get him out of here!”

“Indeed, he lost way too quickly!”

…

Qiu Juemo’s severe injury didn’t earn him any sympathy from the audience. Instead, they mocked him, their eyes filled with scorn.

Qiu Juemo’s friend’s face turned red with embarrassment, but he did not dare to provoke the crowd. He simply helped an ashamed Qiu Juemo and quickly left the place.

“It’s my turn!”

A grey-robed cultivator, his voice filled with anger, flew up.

This time he learned his lesson and didn’t use any magic tools. Instead, he manifested his Gold Core Dharma Form and continually called forth a roaring fire to attack.

“Wealth communicates with the divine!”

Who would expect that as Lu Fan moved his abacus, dozens of bronze coins fell into the fire.

The originally red flames began to show a touch of eerie green.

Then, the fire, which originated from his own divine technique, also lost control and receded towards him.

Finally, with a scream, the grey-robed cultivator also woefully lost the challenge.

The swift defeat of the second challenger made the clamour at the scene quiet down a bit.

“Brother Lu really does possess some skills,” remarked the observing Li Fan, clearly surprised.

After a short period of calm, another challenger appeared.

“Canhong State’s Ou Qianye, I ask for your guidance!”

This time Lu Fan did not respond directly but instead shouted back, “So if you members of the Five Elder Organization can’t win, do you plan on ganging up on me?”

Ou Qianye was momentarily taken aback, halting his already initiated move, he said solemnly, “Then you rest for a while, and we’ll fight again when you’re fully recovered!”

Lu Fan ignored him and closed his eyes to recover his energy.

Not long after, the two of them moved together and started the fight.

Lu Fan still came out on top. However, Ou Qianye was no pushover, with a continuous flow of tactics and spells.

Each move was countered by Lu Fan, and he would immediately use another technique.

Lu Fan had to work hard and just barely managed to win the duel.

“Brother has good skills!” Ou Qianye humbly conceded defeat after exhausting all his tactics.

“Likewise, Likewise…” Lu Fan’s tone was noticeably friendlier this time.

Then the Gold Core cultivators of Weichang City started challenging Lu Fan one after the other.

However, they all were defeated without exception.

Even though Lu Fan had breaks in between bouts, his face began to pale after several continuous fights.

But it seemed as if he had realized something, an excited look on his face that couldn’t be suppressed.

Just when all of Weichang City’s attention was drawn to Lu Fan’s ongoing fights.

On the other hand, Li Fan, who had lost interest in watching, came over to a small stand on the side of the street.

“Ancient Cultivation Secrets.”

He picked up a scroll of pictures and began to flip through it.
