At the door of Chen's house, Chen Jian, Han Feng, and Yang Hai all looked at Chen Fan in front of the earth dragon.

Yang Hai glanced at it, frowning slightly, and secretly thought in his heart that this kid has lost a lot of weight, and he may have suffered a lot during this period. Chen Jian and Han Feng only glanced at Chen Fan, and their eyes suddenly lit up, with a look of surprise on their faces.

Yang Hai is not a martial artist, so he cannot understand that a person's body weight does not necessarily mean that he is physically weak. Sometimes, the explosive power contained in a thin body is enough to surpass that of a strong man several times.

Both Chen Jian and Han Feng were experts. Even though they only saw it from a distance, they could see that Chen Fan's body was stronger than before, and his bones were stronger than those of three generations of young people in the Chen family.

The two of them looked at each other, and both saw the other's eyes filled with wonder. They had no idea what changes had happened to Chen Fan in just over half a year, which had actually changed his bones.

A few minutes later, Chen Fan, Han Zhong and others finally arrived at the door of Chen's house.

"Grandpa, Uncle Han, dad." Chen Fan stepped forward to greet him with steady steps. Han Zhong then stepped forward, greeted Chen Jian and Han Feng, nodded to Yang Hai, and stood beside Chen Fan, silent.

Chen Jian and Han Feng had piercing eyes, always lingering on Chen Fan. After a long time, Chen Jian's eyelids trembled slightly, he took a deep breath, and said to Chen Fan: "You come with me." After speaking, Chen Jian turned around and walked briskly towards the inner courtyard of the Chen family.

Anyone who knows Chen Jian well can see that he cannot conceal his inner excitement at this moment.

"Young man, show your strength!" Han Zhong winked at Chen Fan with a relaxed expression, as if to predict that a good show was about to take place.

Chen Fan raised his eyebrows, without being nervous, nodded calmly, and asked Yang Hai next to him: "Father, are you here to wait for me?"

Although Yang Hai had a serious expression in front of him, the smile at the corner of his mouth could not be concealed, "We are not necessarily waiting for you, we are just curious about what is so special about your body, and we look forward to seeing if you can really advance to the Qi Gathering Realm. "

"Han Zhong, come with me. I have something to discuss with you." Han Feng glanced at Han Zhong, then turned and walked towards the other side.

Han Zhong frowned, obviously reluctant, but still dragged his tired body to follow his brother. The direction they left was completely different from Chen Fan.

"Let's go, don't keep your mother waiting too long." Yang Hai whispered softly, gently tugged on Chen Fan's clothes, and asked in a low voice: "How did you do it?"

"My eldest mother will definitely ask about this later, and I will explain it then." Chen Fan responded with a smile, but he did not show due respect to his father.

Yang Hai was stunned for a moment and looked at him strangely. He said to Chen Fan: "You kid, you are becoming more and more like me. In the past, you were always outspoken and always answered my questions." Now...you don't seem to be so afraid of me anymore? Do you already feel that you are on your own and don't take me seriously anymore, huh?"

"You are my father, how can I be afraid of you?" Chen Fan asked, "Why should I be afraid of you?"

"Your behavior now is completely different from before." Yang Hai frowned and stared at Chen Fan carefully for a moment, then shook his head and said to himself: "This kid has indeed changed after becoming a warrior. He even has no confidence in himself." There are more than before."

"Let's go, don't keep Grandpa waiting too long." Chen Fan said with a smile.

After he and Han Zhong separated, a streak of light streaked across the door of Chen's house like a meteor. They drifted away in different directions in the inner courtyard and quickly disappeared from sight.

The Chen family warriors gathered at the gate showed confusion and surprise. Between the incomprehensible and stunned emotions they displayed, they whispered in private.

"Is it Xiaofan that our family head is waiting for? Did I understand it wrong?"

"I'm at a loss. The head of the family has never met Xiaofan before, and he has never intervened in the disputes or complicated affairs caused by Xiaofan. What is the reason for the strange behavior this time?"

"How do we know? Is it possible that Xiaofan is in big trouble again? However, Xiaofan's troubles in the Merchant Alliance did not attract the attention of the family leader. Xiaofan's problems seem to be solved by our uncle. Why is this?"

Perhaps Xiaofan really caused huge trouble this time, but none of us can tell clearly.



Karl, the whispering chatterer, disturbed his tranquility, "You should respect Xiaofan more in the future. Xiaofan is no longer the nerd he used to be. If you still insist on despising him, what awaits you will be. It's just bad luck. Don't blame me for not reminding you." Karl looked at everyone still talking and couldn't help but whisper a warning.

"Karl, what do you know? Didn't you come back with Xiaofan just now?" A warrior in the crowd who was familiar with Karl asked doubtfully.

"You will know soon." Karl smiled mysteriously and proudly, "Xiaofan will give you a big surprise this time."

"What exactly is going on?"

"what's going on?"

Everyone's curiosity was infinitely amplified, and they asked Karl questions one after another, hoping that he could solve the mystery.

"I can't say for the time being, but I promise you will know soon." Karl ignored those questions, walked through the crowd vigorously, and jumped away with the warriors who accompanied him along the way.



Deep in the Chen Family Manor, a vast training ground unfolds before your eyes. The rhombus-shaped jade crystal in the center of the field glows with sparkling waves, shining like a miniature version of the sun.

Chen Jian stood quietly next to this magnificent jade crystal, with a slight breeze blowing gently by his side. When Chen Fan and Yang Hai approached, he stretched out his palm and patted it lightly, and the light emitted from his palm quickly poured into the testing jade crystal.

In an instant, the originally dazzling test jade crystal dimmed, its charm no longer revealed, and its true color was revealed. "Pour your vitality into the testing jade crystal." Chen Jian's eyes were like stars, and he shouted a command seriously.

Chen Fan walked calmly to the side of the jade crystal for testing, stretched out his left hand and placed it flat against it. His vitality rippled and poured into the testing jade crystal continuously.

Circles of intricate lines appear on the silver-white test jade crystal, and a warm orange light emanates from the inside, shining day by day. The light is intense and the color becomes brighter.

"Okay." The corner of Chen Jian's mouth twitched. He stared at Chen Fan and asked loudly, "I heard that the martial spirit of our Chen family has awakened in you?"

"Um."

"let me see."

"good."

Chen Fan made some gentle movements, rolled up his sleeves, and the metalization in his body gradually appeared under the dark brown exposure from slow to fast.

"Dark brown!"

Chen Jian and Yang Hai shouted at the same time, their eyes widened in surprise, staring at Chen Fan's exposed dark brown arm.

"Is this a problem with the light?" Yang Hai rubbed his eyes, raised his head again, faced the hot sunshine, and murmured to himself: "Am I dazzled?"

After hearing this explanation, Chen Jian frowned even more tightly. He widened his eyes, grabbed Chen Fan's arm in confusion and said, "Come, follow me to the shadow of this rock, with your back to the sun, so you don't There will be color difference.”

Chen Fan did not resist and let him walk through the sunlight to the back of the rock and wait for the result.

"Really dark brown!"

Chen Jian roared desperately, his breath was a little unstable, his eyes shone brightly, he stared at Chen Fan, and asked in a deep voice: "Boy, how did you do it? Why is your martial spirit dark brown? Could it be. ...Is this the second phase?”

"Yes, this is the second stage. My cultivation is still in the stage of gathering energy, but my martial spirit has entered the second stage."

"I want a reasonable explanation! This has never happened to our Chen family since our ancestors until now! Before reaching the realm of Qi Condensation, Wuhun has already entered the second stage. You, you are the first Oh! What happened?" Chen Jian could hardly help but go crazy.

"Ahem, this is actually what happened..." Chen Fan repeated what he had explained to Han Zhong before.

After he finished chattering, he found that Chen Jian was still staring at him with a strange look on his face.

"Grandpa, what's your expression? I've already made it clear."

"You mean, the three magical vermilion fruits prompted you to activate your martial soul and make your martial soul so unique? The vitality stored in your body allowed you to quickly enter the third level of Qi gathering?" Chen Jian's expression became even weirder, and he asked doubtfully: "Is it just because he ingested three fruits?"

"Yes, it is like that."

"Where did those fruits come from? I will send someone to check now to see if more of these fruits can be found."

"There are no more, only those three. I have been looking for them for a long time, but I have never seen this kind of fruit again."

"Boy, are you lying to me?" Chen Jian looked suspicious, obviously half-believing Chen Fan's words.

In his heart, Chen Fan smiled softly: Of course I am fooling you. However, his face was serious, and he said with certainty: "I really don't know anything. In general, I ate that fruit, and then it basically became what it is now. Others, I can’t figure it out either, let alone why my martial spirit is different from others.”

Even though Chen Jian questioned it many times, Chen Fan was all positive and did not explain anything. Finally, Chen Jian stopped asking, was silent for a moment, and then said: "Your martial spirit has turned dark brown. This is really interesting. That...could it be that the characteristics of your martial spirit have also changed? I mean , your martial soul is not only different in color, but also has the ability of the second stage, right?"

"If I feel correctly, it should already be in the second stage." Chen Fan replied.

"Let me try." Chen Jian couldn't help but stretched out his hand and pressed Chen Fan's chest, urging him: "Metalize your body quickly. Don't worry, I will control the power appropriately and won't hurt you."

Of course Chen Fan knew that Chen Jian would not hurt him intentionally, so he metalized his body and waited quietly.

As time passed, Chen Jian's hand began to flicker with a dark light that spread out, and the vibration of power became stronger and stronger, as if it was about to hit Chen Fan's chest.

However, suddenly, all the black light merged into Chen Jian's palm, like being sucked into a sponge.

Chen Jian's old face was full of excitement, and a huge surprise was revealed: "Yes! It is indeed the second stage! Boy, I don't know how you did it, but from today on, you must practice hard, no matter you Like it or not, I will use all means to force you to take the path of a warrior!"
