Chapter 400 - Exchanging Merit
Chen Fan returned to find Wei Buyu as instructed. His master immediately asked, “You’re back, Chen Fan. What did the sect leader tell you?”
“Master, the sect leader has given me my holy disciple mission. I'm to go to the Myriad Deaths Mountains and eliminate the demonic cultivators plotting something there...”
He then explained the details of his mission to Wei Buyu.
Wei Buyu’s expression became grave, and he said, “He wants you to eradicate those demonic path cultivators and gather information? This mission is way more difficult than usual. It seems the sect leader may be sending you to your death.”
“Oh? What do you mean, Master?” Chen Fan asked, narrowing his eyes. He hadn't expected the mission to be so dangerous.
Wei Buyu explained, “I know about the Myriad Deaths Mountains. It’s an ancient battlefield where the righteous and the demonic cultivators had a huge battle. Many experts, including those in the Divine Nascent realm and even those in the Heavenly Star realm, lost their lives there.
“I have heard that many demonic cultivators have gathered at Myriad Deaths Mountains. They seem to be planning something huge, with numerous experts among them.
“The situation at Myriad Deaths Mountains is complicated. Since you advanced just recently, you can’t be considered a strong Core Formation realm expert. The smallest of mistakes could cost you your life.
“The sect leader assigning this mission to you as a test may seem fair, but who knows if he has hidden agendas? This mission should have been given to an elder of the sect.”
Wei Buyu was furious. Chen Fan was the best candidate from their faction to fight Duan Jingtian. If he lost his life in the Myriad Deaths Mountains, the blow to the High Elder faction would be devastating, perhaps even irreparable.
Wei Buyu said angrily, “It seems like the sect leader is using his authority to settle personal scores. The high elder injured Duan Jingtian, halting his cultivation progress and granting us time. Now, the sect leader might be plotting to send you on a dangerous mission, possibly planning to eliminate you."
Chen Fan's heart raced as he absorbed Wei Buyu's words.
“Then what should I do, Master? I’ve already accepted this mission. If I fail to complete it, I can’t become a holy disciple.”
This fortune could not be wasted. He needed to convert it into strength.
Chen Fan did not lack anything right now. Be it treasure, weapon, or martial arts, he had them all.
His iron spear was a Grade-4 treasure.
Northern Star Reaper Hand and Great Brahma Sacred Palm were both earth tier martial skills. There weren’t many even in the entire Spring Autumn Sect.
However, anything could be bought with contribution points in the Spring Autumn Sect. Chen Fan was interested to see what exactly was up for trade.
“Let’s go, I’ll bring you to the Merit Hall,” Wei Buyu said.
The two rose into the air and flew off, soaring past layers of buildings and mountains until they arrived at a magnificent hall.
The grand structure bore the inscription "Merit Hall.”
The entire plaza of the hall could comfortably accommodate more than ten thousand people. Numerous disciples were present, exchanging their contribution points for treasures, elixirs, and other valuable items.
Noticing Chen Fan’s arrival, some disciples quickly cleared a path.
Not only was Grand Elder Wei Buyu leading the way, but Chen Fan's current status also commanded respect.
Everyone here knew that Chen Fan had succeeded in getting through his tribulation, becoming a Core Formation realm expert and a holy disciple. His status was so high that he was comparable to a grand elder of the sect.
Even members of the alliance stepped aside upon seeing him, no longer displaying the arrogance they once did.
