Once the Gale Sparrow had finished evolving, Lin Fan no longer had a reason to stay in the Pet Storage Space any longer.
So he took out a few drops of the Clear Water for the pets, giving a bit extra to the Gale Sparrow since it had just evolved before heading out again.
Mu Bao Bao was able to sense Lin Fan’s sudden appearance, but she didn’t move from the spot that she had been waiting in. That was the trust that she had in Lin Fan.
When Lin Fan appeared again, he got into the carriage and started driving it forward once more without saying a word to Mu Bao Bao.
The two of them continued along their way to their next destination.
However, they were planning on traveling slow instead of going at their normal speed.
While they were planning on keeping their identity as cultivators, they were planning on appearing much weaker than they actually were. They were going to hide their power unlike they had done in Flowing Mud Town.
In Flowing Mud Town, they had only shown their powers because they thought that it would help them get information faster.
While it had done that, it had also exposed them to quite a bit of danger in the form of the cloaked figure.
It made it clear that they were currently in enemy territory and they should hide their identity as much as possible while they were looking for information.
So from now on, they would be hiding their power as much as possible.
As for their destination, they were heading to Floating Seed City.
This was one of the biggest cities in the Southern Province with countless people moving through it each day, so it would be a safe place for them to hide. At the same time, with how many people were there, it was very likely that the enemy was there as well.
Doubly so since they had heard a rumour that someone from the Love Sect had passed through there recently.
Since they had heard the rumour, then the enemy should have also heard the rumour as well.
So they should be sending someone to investigate just like how they had sent the cloaked figure to Flowing Mud Town.
Since they were taking their time to head to Floating Seed City, it took them around the same time as it would take a group of mortals to get there.
But the two of them weren’t worried since they had time right now.
There wasn’t anything urgent that forced them to rush this mission, so they were allowed to take their time. Though Yue Lan and Ming Xin certainly would have wanted them to finish it as soon as possible so that Lin Fan could come back and do his job.
But there was no rushing this since it was a mission without a concrete goal in the first place.
During their journey, Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao made the most out of their time together.
Mu Bao Bao kept finding new ways to please Lin Fan as they slept out under the stars and Lin Fan always had a smile on his face when he woke up.
However, that wasn’t the only thing that they were doing.
The main reason they were doing this act out in the open like this was…because of the pressure that this unknown enemy placed on them. So while they were doing this act, it was also dual cultivation that would help them become stronger.
They didn’t know how strong their enemies were, but they were certain that these enemies would be stronger than them.
So they needed to become much stronger or they would certainly suffer.
When they were awake, Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao both took the time to practice their techniques.
Other than increasing their cultivation, they could also increase their control of their cultivation techniques. Those that mastered their cultivation techniques would always be stronger than those who didn’t have control over them.
On one of those breaks, Lin Fan headed off into the woods by himself since he wanted to test out something new and he didn’t know what was going to happen. He didn’t want to accidentally hurt Mu Bao Bao, so he asked her to stay in the carriage.
As for what he was testing, it was the new skills that he had received from Hikari, the variant Gale Sparrow.
Since this variant Gale Sparrow had gained light attributed spiritual energy, Lin Fan was also able to control light attributed spiritual energy.
But what caught his attention the most was this new ability to control and condense light.
When he had tested it out before, he found that it was similar to how lasers worked. He would be able to condense the light into a single point with this skill that would highly concentrate it, making it very fast and destructive.
However, the problem with this was that because it was very condensed, it was a very small attack. It could burn right through anything, but it had a very small area of attack, so it wouldn’t cause enough damage.
Maybe if Lin Fan hit a very sensitive and vital part, he would be able to hurt them a lot, but that was hard to do in a fast paced battle.
So he needed to find a way to use this skill better.
That was when he came up with this new idea.
Though to call it a new idea was a stretch since this was an idea that he had stolen from a light novel that he had read.
Once he was alone, Lin Fan called out a ball of Clear Water that he controlled to float there in space. He controlled this ball of Clear Water and formed different shapes with it until it took the shape of a circular bowl.
Though it took the shape of a bowl, it was actually a lens that had been made of water.
Normal water wouldn’t have worked since there were too many impurities in the water created with spiritual energy, but it was different with this Clear Water. It was so concentrated and pure that there wasn’t a single trace of impurity in it.
Once this lens of Clear Water had been formed, Lin Fan raised his hand above his head and started releasing spiritual energy.
As his spiritual energy was released, there was a glow that appeared above the water lens. This glow only lasted for a second before it seemed to be sucked into the water itself.
Lin Fan continued gathering spiritual energy above the water lens until there was a glow that appeared inside of the water lens itself.
It was like there was a ball of light that had been condensed inside of the water lens.
Seeing this, Lin Fan gave a satisfied nod and then he started moving backwards.
Once he had moved back a certain distance, he raised a wall of ice in front of him. This wall of ice was completely see through, so he was able to see the water lens still, but it was also very thick, so it provided quite a bit of protection.
He didn’t know how strong this special technique would be, so he didn’t dare be negligent.
He had also made sure that there wasn’t anyone in the area so that there wouldn’t be any accidents.
Once he made sure that he had taken all these safety precautions, Lin Fan waved his hand. The water lens followed the movement of his hand and started to turn upwards so that the bottom of the lens was pointed at a rock in front of him.
While Lin Fan wanted to remain safe, he also wanted to see just how powerful this special technique was. So he decided to aim it at a target instead of just shooting it right into the ground.
Once the water lens was in place, Lin Fan looked forward with an expectant gaze before suddenly letting his hand fall down.
When his hand fell down…
“BOOM!”
There was a large explosion that rang out.
Mu Bao Bao, who had been training on her own, couldn’t help being shocked by this large explosion.
She had also seen that it had come from the direction that Lin Fan was in.
So without any hesitation, she ran over to where Lin Fan had gone to train.
When she arrived, she couldn’t help being shocked by the scenery in front of her.
The once lush and green forest had been turned into a completely black wasteland that was covered in ashes. Everything that had once been here had been crisped black.
She immediately looked around with a worried look for Lin Fan and she was able to find him very quickly since…it was only in his area that there was any sign of green. It was like a strip behind him where there were still plants that were alive.
Lin Fan was standing there with a shocked look on his face as he stared in a certain direction in front of him.
There were also traces of ice that were left in front of Lin Fan, but most of the ice seemed like it had melted away.
After seeing all of this, Mu Bao Bao couldn’t help asking, “What happened here?”
Lin Fan was still in a daze and didn’t hear her words at first, but then when he came back to his senses, he said, “Nothing, nothing at all.”
Mu Bao Bao had a look on her face that made it clear that she didn’t believe him, but Lin Fan wasn’t willing to speak any more on this matter, so she couldn’t say anything else.
