Chapter 679
"My daughter Shi Min, I would like to thank Brother Han Changkong for your help. If it weren't for you, Brother Han, I would probably still be in a deep sleep and would be difficult to wake up."
Han Changkong hurriedly stepped forward, gave Shi Min a slight support, and said gently:
"You don't have to be so polite, sister-in-law. Your recovery is a coincidence. He Ran and I are like brothers, so I will not stand idly by."
Shi Min stood up, tears in her eyes:
"Brother Han, you may not know that when I was trapped in that Soul Gathering Orb, although my consciousness was a little hazy, I was still able to sense some of the outside world. To help me, you went to great lengths to deal with the spirit of the artifact. Xiao Min will always remember this kindness and will repay you in this lifetime."
Han Changkong waved his hand and said with a smile:
"It's just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning. Now that you've recovered, spend the rest of your time with He Ran and don't mention repaying me. By the way, what are your plans next?"
He Ran stepped forward, held Shi Min's hand, and said:
"Brother Kong, I want to take Xiao Min for a walk around the sect first, so she can get familiar with the current environment. After all, she has been asleep for a long time, and she is still unaware of many changes in the divine world."
Han Changkong nodded:
"That's fine. However, you must be more careful. The sect may seem calm right now, but there are actually undercurrents. The Tianjiao Competition in three days will be even more turbulent, with all forces gathering together. It's inevitable that there will be some disputes."
He Ran's expression turned stern:
"Don't worry, Brother Kong. I will protect Xiao Min. As for you, you must be extremely careful during this competition. I heard that the competition is extremely fierce, and many sects have sent their top disciples."
Han Changkong smiled slightly, with a hint of confidence in his eyes:
"That's alright, I have a plan for dealing with it. You guys go ahead, and we'll celebrate after I win the competition."
He Ran and Shi Min looked at each other and saw trust and admiration for Han Changkong in each other's eyes.
Afterwards, the two said goodbye to Han Changkong and left the cave.
After seeing the two of them leave, Han Changkong reopened the restrictions of the cave.
Shi Min is still a soul now, so it's not a big problem. However, it is very difficult for He Ran to reunite with a physical body.
Thinking of this, Han Changkong suddenly came back to his senses and sneered in his heart:
I am just a small cultivator at the bottom of the divine realm. Why should I worry about things that are too far away and too complicated?
The most important thing at the moment is to work hard to improve your own strength.
Thinking of this, he had an idea in his mind and secretly calculated:
It seems that I can go one step further and reach a higher level.
In that case, let’s try to break through and advance directly to the eighth level of the Godly Man tonight.
Having made up his mind, Han Changkong no longer hesitated, sat cross-legged, and quickly entered a state of cultivation.
He focused his mind, discarded all distracting thoughts, and concentrated all his attention on the circulation of the divine power in his body.
As time slowly passed, his body trembled slightly, and the surrounding spiritual energy seemed to be pulled by an invisible suction force, converging towards him, gradually forming a faint spiritual energy vortex around him.
Three days passed in a flash.
On this day, the Liren Sect was decorated with lights and was bustling with activity, as the Tianjiao Competition officially kicked off.
A magnificent arena had already been built on the sect's martial arts field, with colorful flags flying around it. The stands were filled with strong men and disciples from various sects. Everyone's eyes were focused on the arena, eagerly anticipating the exciting competition that was about to begin.
Han Changkong, dressed in a simple black robe, came to the martial arts field with a calm expression.
Along the way, many disciples of the sect looked at him with complicated expressions of curiosity, scrutiny, or jealousy. After all, his reputation inside and outside the sect has been quite great during this period of time, and everyone wanted to see what this dark horse that the Li Ren Sect had high hopes for was capable of.
