Top-tier Unruly Master-Chapter 1523 - 1560: A Time for Transformation
"Although we beat the Wild Wolf Gang and others this time, our Dayang Sect still isn’t strong enough to face the Wild Wolf Gang head-on. Therefore, I plan for everyone to regroup for a period and then relocate our base to a more hidden location to rest and recuperate."
Ding Fan said with a serious expression.
Wang Hu and the elders of Dayang Sect seated there heard Ding Fan’s words, and the joy from defeating the Wild Wolf Gang earlier dissipated somewhat, and everyone turned solemn. They knew the Sect Master’s words made sense. Although we defeated the Wild Wolf Gang this time, if the Sect Master hadn’t discovered the presence of Wild Wolf Gang cultivators on their return.
It’s likely that Dayang Sect would absolutely not be so relaxed at this moment. Not only could the enemy surprise us, but even the four Celestial Busters of the Wild Wolf Gang are not something we could handle. Clearly, if the Sect Master hadn’t returned in time, Dayang Sect would have already suffered heavy damage from the Wild Wolf Gang.
However, everyone is filled with hope for the future of Dayang Sect, partly because of the Sect Master. Despite being young, the Sect Master is already a Grade Nine Alchemist and also a High Level Formation Master. His cultivation is outstanding; not even a cultivator in the Divine Division Stage is a match for him.
This is the confidence and foundation of Dayang Sect, with such a Sect Master, how could the future of Dayang Sect not be bright!
Everyone present had considerable cultivation, though the elders of the Sect were somewhat lacking. But as ordinary cultivators, their cultivation at the Emergence Stage was already quite good, and they were well-informed. They understood that even the leaders of some Great Gate Sect might not be Grade Nine Alchemists.
What does this mean? It’s obvious, the Sect Master being a Grade Nine Alchemist means the sect’s disciples have a chance to use Supreme Quality Medicine Pills. For cultivators, besides talent and hard work, cultivation resources are crucial, and Supreme Quality Medicine Pills are invaluable treasures not only for ordinary cultivator disciples but also for those in the Tribulation Stage.
Therefore, with such strong resources, how could Dayang Sect be lacking in the future? Moreover, the Sect Master being a High Level Formation Master is the most basic and powerful guarantee of the sect. Just like now, the Sect Master set up an advanced defensive array; no matter how many enemies, they cannot break through this defensive array, and they have no choice but to be beaten.
This is exceedingly formidable for any sect.
And these arrays were set up by the Sect Master himself, so there’s no worry about the arrays being leaked or anything like that. Thus, the previous tragedies of the Dayang Sect will not happen again, even if there are traitors within the sect, they can’t break the arrays unless the Sect Master releases them, which is naturally impossible.
Therefore, although everyone in the conference hall knew their sect’s situation wasn’t very optimistic, they were extremely hopeful for its future. Every cultivator present was filled with confidence in Dayang Sect’s future, especially the elders who didn’t know much about Ding Fan previously. The strength Ding Fan demonstrated in this battle had completely won them over, and with such a Sect Master, the future would naturally not be bleak.
"The Sect Master’s right, we aren’t a match for that Wild Wolf Gang yet. We should relocate. But as long as the Sect Master is here, we won’t be afraid of those Wild Wolf gang dogs!"
Wang Hu was entirely in agreement with Ding Fan’s words and hated the Wild Wolf Gang to the bone. At the same time, he was filled with confidence in Dayang Sect’s future and had unwavering trust in his big brother.
"The Sect Master and Deputy Sect Master are right! Though we’re not yet as strong as those Wild Wolf Gang dogs, the Sect Master has limitless potential and peerless power. As long as Dayang Sect has time, sooner or later, we will destroy the Wild Wolf Gang and restore Dayang Sect to its former glory!"
"Exactly! Exactly!"
"We will definitely wipe out those Wild Wolf gang beasts!"
"..."
Everyone voice their agreement, and their hatred for the Wild Wolf Gang was deep-rooted. Now, everyone had only one thing on their minds: to destroy the Wild Wolf Gang and restore Dayang Sect to its glorious past!
Ding Fan looked at everyone’s determined eyes; while he was relieved, his heart was also full of confidence. Everyone’s minds were highly focused, and Ding Fan knew that with such a united team, not even considering his own strengths, Dayang Sect’s future would be promising. Ding Fan had full confidence.
Ding Fan then said:
"Okay, everyone, focus on your cultivation during this period. I’m going to retreat for some time. A week from now, we’ll set off to relocate our base."
Everyone nodded upon hearing this and then left, leaving Ding Fan and Wang Hu alone.
"Big brother, when did you become a High Level Formation Master?"
Wang Hu privately addressed Ding Fan as big brother, only when outsiders were present did he respectfully call Ding Fan the Sect Master. Wang Hu hadn’t realized his big brother was also a Formation Master at first; he was very curious, so he took the opportunity to directly ask his big brother when no one was around.
"I wouldn’t say I’m a High Level Formation Master, at most you could call me a Mid Level Formation Master. I can occasionally set up advanced Seven Star formations, but anything beyond that becomes difficult for me."
Ding Fan spoke candidly, as it didn’t mean much to him.
Wang Hu was deeply shocked, never expecting his elder brother to be a Formation Master; it was simply incredible! Although even a mid-level Formation Master is quite exceptional, as merely a mid-level formation is already something ordinary cultivators cannot handle. Even cultivators at the Distraction Stage can’t gain any advantage from a mid-level formation.
Moreover, despite being only a mid-level Formation Master, his elder brother can occasionally set up advanced formations, evident of a formation talent far beyond ordinary, truly a genius among Formation Masters. Wang Hu looked at his elder brother with admiration; he was not only excellent in cultivation but also distinguished in pill refinement, and now even in formation setup. It was simply unbelievable!
Wang Hu knew well that compared to his elder brother, the gap was significant, yet he never envied Ding Fan but felt immense gratitude toward him. If he hadn’t been fortunate enough to meet Ding Fan, he would now be a very ordinary disciple of Dayang Sect, or perhaps even an abandoned disciple, unable to live till now, let alone having such high cultivation and being Deputy Sect Master.
Wang Hu understood that the person he should thank most is Elder Brother Ding Fan.
Ding Fan and Wang Hu chatted for a while, then Ding Fan returned to his room. At that moment, Zhou Ruoran was in Ding Fan’s room, saw him return, poured a glass of water, and handed it over saying:
"I’ve heard that we’re due to move again in a week?"
"Mm." 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Ding Fan nodded and replied. At this moment, Ding Fan looked at Zhou Ruoran, feeling a sense of indebtedness, then continued:
"These days have been hard on you."
"How could it be! You must be facing many tricky situations outside alone, but being with you is absolutely not bitter..."
"Actually, I also..."
"..."
Ding Fan and Zhou Ruoran felt entangled for a moment, each having missed the other dearly, now meeting again, their reunion was like rekindling affection after a little separation.
That evening, Zhou Ruoran left Ding Fan’s room, marking the official start of Ding Fan’s secluded cultivation. Zhou Ruoran was understanding, aware that Ding Fan had significant tasks to handle, so she wouldn’t be a drag. Her cultivation had also reached Nascent Soul Mid Stage recently, a breakthrough achieved partly due to the supreme quality medicine pills left by Ding Fan.
Zhou Ruoran had always been diligent in her cultivation, which led to her current stage. Even Ding Fan was surprised when he noticed her progress, amazed that Ruoran managed to achieve it in just a few months.
Ding Fan knew Ruoran must have cultivated diligently to reach such a stage, and understood her efforts were all for his sake, determined not to hold him back. Before Zhou Ruoran left the room, Ding Fan handed her a bottle of supreme quality medicine pills.
Holding it, Zhou Ruoran was deeply shocked, aware of the immense value of supreme pills in the Cultivation World, each rare like gold. Yet Ding Fan casually provided her with a bottle full of them, and upon opening she found many supreme pills.
Imagining the worth of these supreme pills, Zhou Ruoran reckoned that they could probably exchange for several cities.
Zhou Ruoran took the pills with shock, feeling thrilled, knowing that even without rigorous cultivation, the supreme pills would undoubtedly enable advancement to the Distraction Stage without any problem.
Ding Fan didn’t regard the pills as particularly significant, even supreme pills paled compared to Ruoran; they were just pills after all. If Ruoran weren’t there, what then would be the point of his struggles? Knowing Ruoran’s excellent cultivation talent and diligent spirit, Ding Fan was assured she could advance further with the pills.
The Cultivation World is fraught with dangers, and if Ruoran could improve her cultivation, facing these perils would be easier, as Ding Fan hoped. Of course, Ding Fan wasn’t too concerned about Ruoran’s safety presently, as she was still within their sect.
If danger arose, she wouldn’t be facing it alone, Ding Fan was there too, assured that with him present, no harm could befall Ruoran.
Alone in his room, Ding Fan commenced the first task: pill refinement. At that moment, he united mind and spirit, focusing on refining supreme quality medicine pills. Ding Fan still had some pills, but aimed to give their sect a significant transformation before relocation, requiring a large quantity of pills.
Only medicine pills could greatly elevate the cultivation strength of numerous cultivators. Currently, the pills Ding Fan possessed could barely enhance several Dayang Sect elders, but that’s not the effect Ding Fan desired; he sought the overall transformation of Dayang Sect.
Whether elders or the lowest ranked cultivators in the sect, Ding Fan recognized that only through comprehensive advancement could the sect’s strength grow. Certainly, this required large quantities of pills, but this posed no great challenge for Ding Fan, especially considering Dayang Sect consisted of fewer than three hundred people at present. Supplying them with pills was manageable for Ding Fan.
