Chapter Fifty-Four: The One Yuan Institute

  Ten days later, in the green hills.

  A winding mountain path, shrouded in mist and clouds, stretches out before us.

  For ten whole days, Lu Fan held onto his heavy sword with no edge, without saying a word.

  Whether it was early or late, Lu Fan's eyes always fell straight on the Wu Feng Heavy Sword, and even eating and resting were no exception.

  Yi Qing didn't disturb Lu Fan either; he could naturally see that Lu Fan was immersed in a state of enlightenment.

  Being able to immerse for ten days is also a pleasant surprise. The longer the time of epiphany, the better the things that are realized.

  One clear thing is that Lu Fan has become somewhat curious about what he has realized.

  Xiao Hei also stopped jumping on Lu Fan's shoulder, with a very spiritual it, although he didn't know what Lu Fan was doing. But Xiao Hei also knew that this moment couldn't disturb Lu Fan.

  Continued on, after another two hours of walking.

  Suddenly, Lu Fan's footsteps stopped, and his body had a slight ripple of energy.

  Her eyes sparkled and her round face broke into a warm smile.

  It seems that Lu Fan has achieved enlightenment.

  Lu Fan slowly exhaled a breath from his mouth and muttered: "So that's how it is."

  Lu Fan raised his heavy sword with one hand and lightly swung it at a tree beside the small path.

  His movements were not fast, but gave people a sense of inevitability.

  One sword came out, and five or six big trees actually bent down at the same time. As if a huge hand was pressed on the trunk of the tree.

  With a loud crack, five or six large trees broke off at the same time.

  A clear smile is even more brilliant, a very good sword, with the power of heaven and earth to form a sword, there are a few points of Taoist meaning.

  One clear and upright wanted to speak out, but at this time, Lu Fan said in a low voice: "Break!"

  The next moment, five or six big trees suddenly exploded at the same time.

  Innumerable trees scattered all around.

  Qing Zhen let out a cry of surprise: "The technique of breaking objects with one's inner power! You've actually mastered the martial skill that even the most skilled warriors find difficult to learn."

  Lu Fan sheathed his heavy sword and heard a clear voice, which made him suddenly come back to himself.

  Turning his head, Lu Fan looked at Yiqing and asked: "Master, what is the method of breaking objects with a single strand of energy?"

  "It's the sword move you just used. Compressing power to a certain degree and then releasing it, causing an explosion within the object. This technique is called 'Bundle Force Destruction'. Usually, only martial artists who have reached the outer boundary can start to comprehend it, and many who have reached the peak of the outer boundary cannot achieve what you've done. Lu Fan, your comprehension has left me in awe."

  Lu Fan smiled and said: "So I've finally cultivated this. Master, how many days have I been meditating?"

  "It's not like it's a lot. It's just ten days."

  Lu Fan touched his belly upon hearing this and only then did he feel a surge of hunger.

  In a hurry, Lu Fan took out food from the ring and wolfed it down. An ordinary person would probably starve to death if they didn't eat for ten days. As a martial artist, Lu Fan was able to hold on for a longer period of time. Ten days without eating anything, he hadn't dehydrated or lost strength, he was just extremely hungry.

  Yi Qing smiled as she watched Lu Fan eat like a glutton and continued on ahead.

  At this moment, Xiao Hei jumped onto Lu Fan's shoulder and licked his cheek a few times. Then, Xiao Hei started competing with Lu Fan for food.

  Feeling almost full, Lu Fan wiped his mouth and asked aloud: "Master, aren't we approaching the One Yuan Institute soon?"

  "That's right. We're almost there, just over this mountain pass and we'll arrive."

  Lu Fan smiled slightly, finally getting what he wanted.

  As for what Master Wu Chen said about the One Yuan Institute, Lu Fan was very curious.

  Picking up their pace slightly, they finally crested this cloud-shrouded mountain as dusk was falling.

  Lu Fan looked around in all directions, wanting to find a clue about the whereabouts of Yuan Yuan.

  Yi Qing smiled as she watched Lu Fan's movements, then asked: "What are you looking for?"

  "Of course it's Yuan Yuan Hospital."

  "Isn't that it?" he said, pointing at those several wooden houses.

  Lu Fan followed the direction of Qing's finger and saw a flat area on a nearby mountain slope, with several wooden houses forming a courtyard. Nestled between mountain peaks, wisps of smoke rose into the air.

  "Is this the One Yuan Hospital?"

  Lu Fan was shocked and asked.

  Yi Qingdao said: "That's right. This is Yiyuan Hospital."

  As he spoke, he strode towards the wooden hut with big steps.

  Lu Fan was thoroughly shocked, having seen the grandeur of the Wudao Academy's main hall, he simply couldn't believe that one of the nine major branches, the Yiyuan Institute, was just a few small wooden houses.

  As he caught up, and as they walked closer, Lu Fan was able to see a stone monument erected in front of the wooden hut.

  The two characters "one yuan" are clearly written above.

  It's really a one-yuan hospital. Lu Fan sighed twice, Master, master, you're really good at picking places for me.

  The large courtyard didn't even have a gate. There were only some bluestone slabs paved in the middle of the courtyard, which was still neat, and a blurry "Wu" character was engraved in the center.

  Suddenly, Xiao Hei's nose twitched twice, as if it had caught a whiff of something fragrant.

  Then Xiao Hei didn't care about that anymore. He directly jumped down from Lu Fan's shoulder and ran quickly to a wooden house on the left.

  Yi Qing stopped in his tracks and turned his head towards the wooden hut.

  The next moment, a cry rang out.

  "Your ancestors are all bastards, whose little dog is this? How dare you snatch food from me, Young Master. Let go, let go! Believe it or not, I'll stew you too if you don't behave. Don't run away, my meat!"

  "And also my flesh."

  "Han Feng you bai chi, gan ku zhua zhi ta."

  Translation: "Han Feng you idiot, quickly catch it."

  。。。。。

  A burst of barking and shouting was heard, followed by Xiao Hei dashing out with a large piece of roasted meat in his mouth.

  Three men burst out, each holding chopsticks, with bare shoulders and half-pants, looking vicious.

  Especially a young man who rushed to the front, with a big piece of meat still in his mouth, holding a long sword made of jade in his left hand, which was full of oil light.

  "Puppy, where are you running to?"

  Suddenly, the young man stopped. He looked up at his master with a long face and said awkwardly: "Master... Master!"

  The face of the clear master turned green as he looked at the three people and then at the young man's hand holding the emerald long sword.

  A clear voice shouted: "Han Feng, did I give you the Bi Shui Chang Tian sword just to cut meat?"

  Han Feng was directly spat on in the face, and Lu Fan next to him also suffered from bad luck.

  Good grief, when Master Qing is in a rage, this voice, this spittle, it's simply unbelievable.

  Lu Fan couldn't help but take two steps back.

  Han Feng closed his eyes and wiped his face with his hand. Suddenly, Qing Shi shouted again: "What are you wiping?"

  Han Feng's eyes could hardly open, and he said in a miserable tone: "Nothing was wiped, just smoothed out, that's all."

  The other two lowered their heads and forced themselves to hold back their laughter. The clear teacher pointed at the two of them, saying: "Chu Tian, Chu Xing, you two must not laugh either. Go back to your room and put on your clothes properly, immediately, right now."

  The two of them responded in low voices and hurriedly ran away.

  Taking this opportunity, Han Feng quickly wiped off the saliva on his face and said: "Master, then I'll go back to put on my clothes too."

  One of the masters glared at him and said, "First tell me what's going on."

  Han Feng closed his eyes and got it, just now he had wiped it clean again.

  Slowly, Han Feng said: "Master, this isn't Second Brother or Third Brother's sword, they're all damaged and can't be used for the time being. It seems we have no choice but to use the Bishui Changtian Sword to cut our flesh."

  "What's wrong with you guys? Who have you provoked again?"

  Han Feng said, "We went up the mountain to hunt. We encountered a Violet Flame Bird, it was really powerful, and it burned the blades of both of my senior brothers' swords. If I didn't have the Azure Water Long Sky Sword, we wouldn't have been able to defeat that Violet Flame Bird."

  "Violet Firebird?" A Qing Shizun slightly furrowed his brow, as if he had heard of it somewhere before.

  Suddenly, Qing Shi's respected teacher thought of it.

  "You didn't actually defeat the Purple Flame Phoenix of Dreamy Cloud Pavilion's Master Yunru, did you?"

  The young master's eyes widened in surprise.

  Han Fen was also shocked at the same time, and forced to open one eye: "Master, are you talking about the one with purple gold flame patterns on its wings?"

  A clear master nodded and said: "It's it, no mistake. What did you do with it?"

  Han Feng swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "You're really Master Mengyun's pet! Master, you can't be mistaken, right?"

  "A clear and respected teacher loudly asked: 'Quickly say what you did with it?'"

  Han Feng turned his head and looked at Xiao Hei beside Lu Fan.

  At this moment, Xiao Hei is happily eating meat.

  The three of them looked at Xiaohuo, and Qing Shizun had a somewhat ominous premonition in his mind.

  Han Feng pointed at the meat in Xiao Hei's mouth and said: "Master, this is that Purple Flame Bird of Heaven."

  One of the Qing masters was petrified on the spot, his whole body stiffened in place.

  Lu Fan's eyelids twitched violently, this wouldn't lead to a fight between the two great masters, would it?

  Xiao Hei didn't know what they were saying and swallowed the remaining meat in one gulp. All that was left on the ground was a pile of bones.

  A gentle breeze blew by, and Master Qing's face turned from red to green, then from green to black.

  Immediately followed by a loud roar, like thunder.

  "Chu Tian, Chu Xing, you two come out for me."

  The next moment, Lu Fan saw Chu Tian and Chu Xing rushing out with their pants not fully on, but they were not running towards the direction of Yi Qing, but instead frantically sprinting outward.

  "The master is furious, run quickly!"

  Chu Tian shouted loudly and the two of them took off in different directions, running wildly with movements as swift as the wind.

  Han Feng only reacted now and hurriedly wanted to run too.

  A clear master suddenly grabbed Han Feng who was about to escape, and then his figure disappeared instantly. When he reappeared, he had caught both Chu Tian and Chu Xing at the same time.

  "You three, really suffocating me."

  One Clear Master rolled up his sleeves and started fighting without saying a word. Chu Xing, Chu Tian, and Han Feng also joined in, unleashing their own powerful moves. Han Feng shouted loudly: "Two senior masters, our master is here for real, we're going all out too!"

  After finishing speaking, the three people surprisingly formed a Three Talents Formation and began to counterattack against Qing Shi Zun.

  For a time, the aura was strong and shot out in all directions, with broken stones flying horizontally. The wooden house that was relatively close by did not escape this disaster either, being directly trampled by the shockwave of the battle.

  Lu Fan stood still, his mouth agape as he watched this scene unfold.

  Alright, this is the legendary One Yuan Hospital.

  Why did he feel like he had come to the wrong place?

  Xiao Hei let out a comfortable burp, and thought that with such delicious food available, he had indeed come to the right place!
