Even though the old monk was deeply sophisticated, upon hearing Xu Fan's words, he couldn't help but have a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth.
Afraid of death is just afraid of death, but Xu Fan insisted on starting with a speech full of righteousness, saying things like "even if I die, I will not regret it!" and "what fear is there in death!" Ultimately, it all boils down to so inescapable command from his master...
Since you were determined not to die, why make such a righteous speech? Was it ant to send to my death?
This is simply shaless!
Truly a disciple of the Taoists, even if separated by a thousand years, still so shaless! Still so sanctimonious!
Even with the old monk's composure, he secretly took a deep breath for a long ti to quell his inner anger.
However, the old monk didn't know that Xu Fan was not a Taoist disciple, nor was he soone afraid of death! In the Middle Stage of the Vajra Realm, all alone, he ventured into the Dragon Pool and Tiger's Den, facing the terrifying golden ape from a thousand years ago!
Such boldness is rare not only in the Vajra Realm but there is not even one person in the Zhiwei Realm who dares to wager their life in such a gamble!
The reason Xu Fan deliberately spoke such words, apart from making the old monk believe in his Taoist identity and intentionally angering him to lower his guard, was also to gain so benefits.
Not disappointing Xu Fan, the old monk at this mont collected his emotions, smiled at Xu Fan, and said, "I see, it was a misunderstanding on my part."
"This temple may be small, but it is a place that suppresses demon beasts. While the treasures may not be plentiful, they are exceptionally precious. What do you want? Just say it!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Fan didn't appear overly joyous but instead donned a stern face and righteously replied, "Senior, it's not about what I want. My presence here today is to vanquish demons. For this, I even disregard my life, let alone those worldly possessions."
"However... the command of my master is not to be disobeyed, and those worldly possessions are for my master."
Upon hearing this, the old monk's mouth once again twitched slightly, clearly once again shocked by Xu Fan's "shalessness."
However, the old monk quickly regained his composure, feigning an "admiring" deanor, first apologized to Xu Fan, and then asked, "I wonder, what kind of item does your master want?"
Xu Fan blinked, seemingly having forgotten for a mont, and then counter-asked the old monk, "I wonder what senior has here?"
Boom!
Even though the old monk was already aware of Xu Fan's "shalessness," he was still deeply shocked upon hearing Xu Fan's words.
When others ask for things, there is usually a limit. Although sowhat shaless, at least they maintain appearances. But Xu Fan's way of asking for things deeply stunned the old monk.
What do you have? Are you planning to package and take away all the good stuff here?
Even with the old monk's deep scheming, he felt as if thunder was raging in his mind, and he almost wanted to slap the infuriating young man to bits.
However, as if recalling sothing, the old monk quickly suppressed his emotions and slowly took out a glowing orb from his bosom.
Holding the orb, the old monk appeared sowhat peaceful, smiling as he addressed Xu Fan, "Little friend, do you recognize this item?"
Xu Fan stared intently at the orb in front of him, his mind already in a tumult!
How could Xu Fan not recognize this? Previously, in the Dongying Burial Grounds, he had seen an identical item and, by a stroke of fate, it had rged into his body.
It was the Seven Treasures Relic!
Xu Fan was not a genius, even he always believed so.
However, after the Seven Treasures Relic integrated into his body, Xu Fan inexplicably found that his comprehension of combat skills and techniques was astonishingly good! Mysterious Rank Battle Technique could be comprehended in the ti it takes to drink a cup of tea, and no matter how obscure the Divine Sense Cultivation Technique was, it was still no obstacle to Xu Fan.
Of course, all of this is Xu Fan's hypothesis. The specific functions of the Seven Treasures Relic, Xu Fan wasn't entirely clear on, and now seeing another relic, how could Xu Fan not be shocked?
However, Xu Fan didn't show much emotion on his face; the old monk, with a rich deanor, imdiately took out such a treasure like the relic. If Xu Fan reacted as if seeing a precious treasure, wouldn't the other treasures be out of his reach?
"Ahem, Senior truly is a wonderful person. I rembered, indeed, there is a relic on the list my master gave ."
The old monk, smiling, handed the relic to Xu Fan, who unceremoniously stuffed it into his bosom. They looked at each other with faint, elusive smiles.
A thousand years have passed, how many cultivators have co to this temple? How many treasures have been left behind by fallen cultivators? Simply countless!
These items held no use for the old monk! As long as Xu Fan could be enticed to "vanquish demons," everything would be worthwhile.
These treasures, which the old monk didn't care about, were quite beneficial to Xu Fan, as his realm was rely the Middle Stage of the Vajra Realm! Items that stabilize the realm, increase strength, or even change one's aptitude, naturally, the more the better for Xu Fan!
"This is the Water-Repelling Pearl, a Seventh Rank Divine Weapon, not only can it allow deep exploration of the ocean but also grants immunity to all water-based attacks, with exceptional results."
"Ahem, a sea monster has suddenly appeared in the waters, stirring up trouble; my master happens to be eager to descend to the ocean floor to eliminate it for the people..."
"This is the Gentle Wind Sword, a Seventh Rank Divine Weapon, embedded with a wind-based formation, extrely fast, capable of slicing the wind!"
"Ahem, my master recently had so insight and wishes to ride the wind and waves, vanquishing demons throughout the world..."
"This is..."
"Ahem..."
In no ti, Xu Fan's storage ring was filled with various treasures, each exceptionally precious, including relics, various functional Seventh Rank Divine Weapons, strength-enhancing elixirs, and even an Earth Rank Combat Skill book!
At this mont, Xu Fan was encompassed by imnse joy, although he had anticipated many treasures within this temple, he hadn't imagined there would be so many!
However, Xu Fan quickly regained his composure.
Many treasures, what does this indicate? It indicates that many cultivators perished at the hands of the old ape or this old monk before him!
Xu Fan must respond with utmost caution to everything that follows!
"Little friend, haven't you taken away at least several dozen items from here?"
The old monk's face remained calm, showing no signs of distress as he no longer presented treasures, rely speaking softly to Xu Fan, "Little friend, as long as you help slay the demon beast, all my treasures are yours."
"Now, can you accompany in slaying the demon beast?"
