548: Chapter 548 Sudden Enlightenment, the Heart-wrenching Bitterness of Venerable Xuan!

Time passed quickly.

Five days slipped by in the blink of an eye.

During these five days,

Venerable Ku Xuan continued to preach to Li Fan while silently observing the concentration level of the kunpeng true blood in the pool.

The more he observed, the more astonished he became.

Because in just five days,

Nearly eighty percent of the incredibly rich kunpeng true blood had already been absorbed by Li Fan!!

How could anyone absorb it this fast?!

At this rate,

Even if he threw all the remaining bottles he had into it, they probably wouldn't last Li Fan even a few months of cultivation!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a lingering fear.

It was a good thing he hadn't continued to pour it in!

If he had been determined to test Li Fan's limit just now, wouldn't he have lost everything?

Li Fan was a genius, a monster, and he truly appreciated that.

But no matter how much he appreciated him, he couldn't bear to invest so much!

Besides, to be fair,

Li Fan wasn't even a prodigy from his Sea of Life!

So, he had already decided.

Once Li Fan absorbed the remaining twenty percent of the kunpeng true blood, he would stop investing any more.

Anyway, there were still five days left, and this preaching session would be concluding soon.

Perhaps Li Fan wouldn't gain much in terms of enlightenment, but having absorbed over ten drops of his kunpeng true blood, this fortune was substantial enough; it wasn't a wasted trip.

...

In a flash,

Five days passed quietly.

At this moment, the Kun Ling Pool barely contained any kunpeng true blood; what remained was entirely a specially formulated medicinal liquid.

Although this liquid also had some body-tempering effects, for Li Fan, it was almost negligible.

And this day,

Was the final day of the preaching session.

Venerable Ku Xuan had originally intended to end the preaching directly, but when discussing a particular piece of knowledge, in order to ensure the completeness of that segment, he continued speaking, intending to finish this specific point before concluding.

As the sun set, it was already night.

Venerable Ku Xuan's preaching had reached its final moments.

“Alright, that’s about it. We’ll stop here.”

After conveying the last bits of knowledge, Venerable Ku Xuan slowly spoke, preparing to rise and let Li Fan leave.

However, when he uttered those words, Li Fan did not respond.

“Li Fan, you…”

Venerable Ku Xuan frowned slightly, looking somewhat displeased, then lowered his gaze toward Li Fan in the pool.

He had initially thought Li Fan was trying to linger and refuse to leave.

Having already used over ten drops of his kunpeng true blood, was he now going to keep relying on him to preach and waste his time?

However, when he saw Li Fan's condition, his eyes widened slightly, and the curse that was about to leave his lips instantly choked off.

At this moment, Li Fan's eyes were tightly shut, waves of Dao charm rippled around his body, and his entire demeanor was incomparably ethereal and incredibly mystical!

“This is… sudden enlightenment?!”

Venerable Ku Xuan watched this scene, the corner of his eye twitching uncontrollably, his expression growing solemn.

Li Fan’s state,

was clearly that of sudden enlightenment!

At this moment, his heart was incomparably shaken; his expression even showed a rare loss of composure, revealing a flicker of shock.

But it couldn't be helped.

Because Li Fan’s situation,

would shock anyone who saw it!

No way, Li Fan actually learned something?!

Although Li Fan had listened for a month,

the first half of the month was spent listening intermittently because he frequently passed out from the pain. Only in these last few days had he truly listened intently.

And he managed this while resisting the erosion of the excruciating pain.

If it were any normal person, let alone achieve sudden enlightenment, they probably wouldn't even clearly remember everything he had preached throughout the entire time!

“How can there be such a monster?!”

Looking at Li Fan in the pool who had entered a state of sudden enlightenment, Venerable Ku Xuan fell silent for a long time before letting out a soft sigh of emotion.

Since Li Fan had entered the state of sudden enlightenment,

he naturally could not forcibly drive him away.

He could only wait until Li Fan’s enlightenment ended before making any further decisions.

Immediately,

Venerable Ku Xuan, who had just stood up not long ago, sat back down again, began cultivating on his own, and incidentally stood guard to protect Li Fan’s Dao.

However, after tossing and turning for a long while, he found it difficult to calm his mind to cultivate.

“In a state of sudden enlightenment, if it could be combined with the tempering of the kunpeng true blood, the effect of his enlightenment would likely be doubled with half the effort…”

Venerable Ku Xuan frowned as he looked at Li Fan in the pool, murmuring inwardly.

That’s right.

The reason he couldn't settle his mind was because he knew how to maximize the results of Li Fan's current enlightenment.

But this method would probably require sacrificing the meager amount of kunpeng true blood he had left.

Although he had already made up his mind not to invest any more in Li Fan,

the talent Li Fan was currently displaying was simply too heaven-defying; he appreciated it too much.

If he just stood by and watched Li Fan fail to maximize the effects of this sudden enlightenment, he would definitely feel uneasy.

But if he continued to pour in the true blood…

His heart ached!

This true blood was something he had obtained after fighting through hell and back, experiencing near-death countless times, alongside several good friends in the Cosmic Sea.

If he gave all that remained to Li Fan, his heart would practically bleed.

For a moment,

Venerable Ku Xuan fell into silence.

After a full dozen breaths had passed,

Venerable Ku Xuan’s eyes became resolute, as if he had made some kind of decision.

“Forget it. Although this true blood is precious, I have no use for it myself. None of the juniors in the Sea of Life are promising; using it on you is the most suitable choice.”

“A full-scale war is imminent. All beings in the universe share the same fate. Using it on you is no different than using it on the juniors of my Sea of Life.”

“When we reach the Cosmic Abyss, you better not disappoint me, kid!”

Venerable Ku Xuan looked at Li Fan in the pool and couldn't help but murmur to himself, his expression becoming tranquil.

That’s right.

After struggling for a while, following careful consideration,

he still decided to use it on Li Fan!
