Chapter 345 - Bring Down The Yukishiro Family (2/2)

Chen Fan cracked a smile and lowered his hand until it was an inch away from Yukis.h.i.+ro Chio’s head. Suddenly, an azure light shot out from Chen Fan’s eyes as he channeled Divine Will into the mind of Yukis.h.i.+ro Chio. The groveling smile on Yukis.h.i.+ro Chio froze on his face, as his body went into a seizure. As the old man’s body struggled to hold the sudden a.s.sault of Divine Will, he felt immense pressure in his brain, as if it was about to explode from inside.

Yukis.h.i.+ro Sa lowered her head in awe with Chen Fan’s power.

Her heart was filled with veneration and reverence towards Chen Fan and had no room for any other thoughts.

Using the Mystic Art of Soul Searching, Chen Fan learned the details of the Susano Shrine. The Divine Will had overloaded the old man’s system and frayed his mind, turning him into a mindless husk. He left the old man to Yukis.h.i.+ro Sa for her to dispose of him.

“So that’s the secret of Susano Shrine. It was an Immortal State Overlord’s Divine Soul that they tended every day.” Chen Fan rubbed his chin as he mulled over the information he extracted from Yukis.h.i.+ro Chio’s mind.

All the while, he was laying comfortably in a luxurious hot spring.

He was flanked by two attractive young women, both wearing only a thin layer of cloth. Their luscious bodies appeared behind the heavy mist in fits and starts. They were very young, almost too young, but their budding beauty was intoxicating. Chen Fan wagered that both of them were popular girls like Jiang Churan.

They kneeled on a flat stone and ma.s.saged Chen Fan’s shoulders. Fear flickered in their eyes every time they looked at Chen Fan’s face. It was as if they were serving an Oni.

Chen Fan didn’t pay much attention to the girls, he closed his eyes, trying to focus on planning his next step.

He was the North Mystic Celestial Lord and had seen the most sublime beauty in the universe. These girls’ appearances were of below-average among all the girls he knew so they weren’t able to pique his interest.

“Without reaching the Connate Spirit Level, Divine Sea cultivators could live only a hundred and fifty years on average. Even with the help of Spirit Pills that could prolong life, a hundred eighty years was the max. However, after the flesh had perished, the Divine Soul could remain in this world for another few hundred years. The life of the Divine Soul could even be longer if it was supported by the Devotion Energy from his followers. That being said, I am still very disappointed at the power of this particular Immortal State Cultivator. ”

Chen Fan smiled derisively.

The other Immortal State Cultivators Chen Fan had met in his past life all possessed incredible Physique and powerful Dharma Artifacts and secret Arts. They would be a headache for Chen Fan at his current level of attainment. However, this so-called Lord Susano’s body had long since perished, and only his Divine Soul remained. Chen Fan had over a dozen arts up his sleeve that he could think of to quash the Divine Soul of an Immortal State cultivator.

“Internal Force cultivation strengthens one’s force, Transcendent State cultivates Qi, and the Immortal State was all about Divine Soul. At the Divine Sea level, the Divine Soul would fly out of the body and live on its own for a few days. With proper support and nourishment, such as what Lord Susano had, the Divine Soul could live decades if not centuries. However, without a host, the Divine Soul would never exist in the physical realm: that was not real immortality. Therefore, the Connate Spirit level was considered the real starting point of cultivating immortality.” Chen Fan thought to himself as he shook his head.

Other than the Lord Susano, no one posed a threat to Chen Fan. If not because he wanted to help Yukis.h.i.+ro Sa consolidate her influence in the Yukis.h.i.+ro family, he would have already done away with the Susano Shrine and went back to China.

Even as he pondered on, soft wet footsteps came drifting through the mist.

He watched as Yukis.h.i.+ro Sa entered the hot spring. She wrapped in a white towel, revealing her round and soft shoulder, long elegant legs and a breathtaking cleavage.

She dipped herself into the warm water and waded toward Chen Fan.

“Master, do you require my a.s.sistance?” Yukis.h.i.+ro Sa’s tantalizing body appeared and disappeared behind the heavy mist. She blushed and looked to Chen Fan with a soft gaze.

By now, Chen Fan was her G.o.d. She would even give up her life for Chen Fan, much less serving him.

“I have never done this before.” Yukis.h.i.+ro Sa lowered her head and said coquettishly.

Her coy expression and the cla.s.sy hairdo lend her the enchanting charm equal to that of the concubines of the emperor.

“How is the family business?” Chen Fan barely spared the girl a glace. He asked indifferently as he tapped a piece of stone.

Yukis.h.i.+ro Sa was slightly disappointed by Chen Fan’s reply. She answered nonetheless. “No one protested my taking over, thanks to you. My Uncle Yukis.h.i.+ro Kōichirō was the first to voice his support and I have already dispatched men that I trust to rally the other branches. In no time, you will have full control over the Yukis.h.i.+ro family.”

“Very well. With the Yukis.h.i.+ro family helping me keep an eye on things, I wouldn’t have to worry about that Demon G.o.d’s escape.” Chen Fan nodded.

He was in j.a.pan by himself and needed a local a.s.sistant. He didn’t even know where to find the Susano Shrine. Therefore, he had decided to help Yukis.h.i.+ro Sa take over his family in order to leverage the resources of the Yukis.h.i.+ro family.

“Master, you are a G.o.dly existence, Lord Susano is no match against you.” Yukis.h.i.+ro Sa said obediently.

Chen Fan didn’t offer a reply. He already closed his eyes and started his cultivation.

The journey of cultivation was long. It took the North Mystic Celestial Lord five hundred years to almost reach the peak, and it would take an ordinary man a hundred times longer. Clarity of the mind and unswerving determination were the two cornerstones of cultivation. Yukis.h.i.+ro Sa waited for a reply that never come, so she looked up at Chen Fan to soak up his G.o.dly presence while he was not paying attention to her. Her eyes were filled with admiration mixed with a tinge of infatuation.
