487: Eavesdropping and Planning

Under Lilith's urging, Xiao Fan could no longer refuse and could only choose to drip his blood onto the large red robe.

The blood, enveloped in rich Devilish Qi, immediately merged with the robe the moment it touched it.

The next second, Xiao Fan clearly felt his spirit gradually connect with this Little Blood Divine Robe.

This was also one of the uses of Mental Energy.

In the past, to ensure a weapon belonged only to oneself and couldn't be manipulated by others, many convoluted methods were required.

Now, it's no longer necessary; simply finding a way for the two to achieve Mental resonance is enough.

However, Xiao Fan suddenly thought, what if the opponent's Mental Energy is too powerful and forcibly severs your resonance with the weapon?

But this question is not important for now.

He put on the blood-colored long robe, then stood up, chest out and head held high.

"This is really good..."

Xiao Fan looked at his reflection in the window, a smile involuntarily appearing on his face.

Because this garment was truly exquisite; the fabric was soft and silky, extremely light, like a breeze covering his body.

At this moment, a satisfied smile also appeared on Lilith's face.

"Come, turn around."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Fan's face stiffened.

Why did it feel a bit strange?

He reluctantly turned a circle, and the overall effect of the Little Blood Divine Robe on Ting Qiao's body made Lilith's smile unwavering.

Finally, she stood up, suddenly yawned, then stretched lazily, causing Xiao Fan's eyes to widen in shock.

That figure, that fair skin... Oh no, there's a seductress.

But Lilith hadn't thought about what stretching would entail.

She frowned and said, "Alright, from now on, whenever you encounter danger, put on this Little Blood Divine Robe."

"I'm leaving. Remember, you must reply to the message I sent you on time."

"Okay." Xiao Fan nodded, watching Lilith leave.

After stepping out, Lilith suddenly frowned.

Did that guy just say "Okay" to her?

Never mind.

Lilith was also a bit puzzled as to why she would suddenly dwell on such an insignificant thing.

Finally, she walked back towards the palace.

On the other side, no sooner had Lilith left than two people appeared in the room.

Ri Tian Nian and Swordsman Zou.

"This clothing is beautiful," Swordsman Zou smiled, stepping forward to touch the Little Blood Divine Robe.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Fan frowned and said, "Don't touch it randomly."

After speaking, he immediately put away the clothes and changed back into his original attire.

Swordsman Zou pouted and said, "So stingy."

"Let's get to the point." Xiao Fan cleared his throat and said, "Xiao Tian, where were you just now?"

It turned out that before Lilith arrived, the three people in the room were discussing some important matters.

Ri Tian Nian said in a deep voice, "According to your instructions, I went to the Demon Clan's station and eavesdropped for a while."

"I didn't expect to actually hear some extremely important news!"

"The Demon Clan actually wants to be the boss!"

"Oh?" Xiao Fan raised an eyebrow.

He knew the Demon Clan wouldn't give up easily, so he thought of striking first, having Ri Tian Nian directly stake out their doorstep to listen for news inside.

He hadn't expected that, as he listened, he seemed to have truly uncovered some extraordinary secrets.

Then, Ri Tian Nian told Xiao Fan about the conversation between the Evil Demon Nine Ancestor and Ghost Cold.

After listening, Xiao Fan's expression changed slightly.

Is it real or fake?

That Demon Emperor has such great ambition?

He wants to devour Drunkard, devour Arthas, and also devour Helden?

Who gave him the courage?

Is it that Dark Fire they spoke of?

Dark Fire... If he wasn't mistaken, it must have been the black flame on Ghost Cold's body before. It was indeed filled with the aura of death and annihilation.

That flame could truly incinerate everything. Xiao Fan clearly saw that matter burned by that flame directly disappeared, even making it feel a bit like... devouring.

Could that flame devour everything?

This was too incredible.

However, he hadn't had much contact with it, so he couldn't be certain.

But now, Xiao Tian told him that as long as he learned that Martial Arts, he could master Dark Fire.

And Ghost Cold also knew that Martial Arts.

Wouldn't that mean that by directly searching Ghost Cold's memories, he could also possess that kind of flame?

What a pleasant surprise.

The reason he told Lilith he was leaving the city today.

Was not only for the reason of striking first against the Demon Clan.

There was also another very important reason.

The Ancestor Martial Arts of the Black Soul Clan he learned from Xi Gui contained a part about Mental Energy.

Magic Element transforms into Mental Energy!

But the conversion rate was only 1:0.8.

After all, the Black Soul Clan in the outside world was already inferior to the Wild Bone Clan, let alone compared to the Demon Clan.

But this was enough to excite Xiao Fan.

Because he knew very well that now was a period of competing Mental Energy.

Currently, Imperial-level experts' Mental Energy was probably around the Fifth Awakening.

It would likely take about a year for them to reach the Sixth Awakening.

If he reached the Sixth Awakening in advance within this year, it would mean he possessed the ability to kill Imperial-level cultivators!

Generally, Mental Energy needs to be one level higher than the opponent to barely perform Mental attacks, but Xiao Fan had the blessing of the Fire of Resistance. Although it would consume some lifespan, it would definitely be within an acceptable range.

Perhaps he could kill even now with the power of the Fire of Resistance, but he couldn't calculate how much lifespan it would consume, nor did he dare to calculate.

This was something his main Realm strength couldn't achieve.

Although he had infinite gears and a plethora of various abilities.

The gap between Realms was too vast. Between him and an Imperial-level cultivator, there were the heaven piercing crystal and the Spirit Gathering Crystal, two things that could completely transform a person.

Killing a King-level might be possible, but killing an Imperial-level was truly impossible.

Therefore, when he obtained the Ancestor Martial Arts of the Black Soul Clan, he decided to devote all his efforts to Cultivating Mental Energy.

What he was discussing with Ri Tian Nian today was about leaving the city to kill "demons," converting them into Mental Energy, and rapidly advancing his Mental Realm.

And relying on Ri Tian Nian's information gathering ability.

They had already created a relatively safe planned route map.

The only thing Xiao Fan regretted was that Ri Tian Nian had not yet Awakened the means of Mental Energy attack, which also led people to believe that he wasn't high in Mental Energy, but merely had good talent.

If his Mental Energy was high, then why couldn't he use Mental Energy to attack, why couldn't he search others' memories? The only things he could do were eavesdropping and hiding his aura.

If he was truly that Supreme Creator who could reverse heaven and earth with a single thought.

Then he couldn't possibly only have these means.

Xiao Fan planned to slowly develop them; perhaps at some point, he would suddenly Awaken?

"Let's go."

Finally, Xiao Fan glanced down at the planned route map in his hand, stood up, and prepared to leave.

But at this moment, Swordsman Zou said resentfully, "I want to go too."
