Entering the world of Flash Void isn't too difficult.
But to truly enter the hall of Flash Void's secret techniques, that's not so simple.
However, Gu Fan's current situation is special, different from all the previous inheritors of the Immortal Doctor Sect.
The biggest difference is that Gu Fan doesn't have a powerful protector from the previous generation guiding him.
In the past, the Immortal Doctor Sect would determine the next inheritor early on. Thus, the growth of the inheritor would always be under the protection of a powerful guardian. But by the time of Gu Fan's master, Xunzhen, his luck wasn't so good.
Among the many candidates, none could satisfy him, none could inherit the legacy of the Immortal Doctor Sect.
It wasn't until Gu Fan appeared that Xunzhen finally determined the 25th-generation inheritor of the Immortal Doctor Sect.
By then, Xunzhen was already very old.
So, at Gu Fan's age, before he had fully grown, he had to retire to the ancestral tomb!
This left Gu Fan with much less meticulous guidance and a lack of a powerful protector, distinguishing him from the previous generations of the Immortal Doctor Sect.
But similarly, the insights gained by the previous generations in a safe environment are different from those Gu Fan faces under the threat of life and death!
Under the stimulation of life and death, a person's potential can be infinitely unleashed.
"Ha ha ha! Flash Void, Void, Void Ground, Space... I understand, I understand!" After about ten minutes of full-speed running, Gu Fan suddenly burst into laughter. He had successfully comprehended the profound incantation of Flash Void and truly entered the initial stage of the first level of Flash Void!
Looking back at the withered old man who was now only 300 meters away, Gu Fan smiled and his figure flashed, suddenly accelerating.
His speed increased by a full two times!
In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from the withered old man's sight!
The withered old man, surrounded by a dark aura, looked extremely frustrated.
He had already used some special means and pushed his speed to the limit, almost catching up to within 200 meters, and was about to completely capture Gu Fan. But he never expected that Gu Fan would successfully comprehend and boost his speed to such an absurd level in such a short time!
"Unfortunately!" The withered old man shook his head in helplessness. He had completely lost track of Gu Fan, and his spiritual sense could only extend 200 meters. It was impossible to continue tracking Gu Fan!
Especially with that body movement secret technique, watching it disappear right before his eyes, the withered old man was filled with regret.
He stood there for a moment, muttering, "This person must be after Linghan. I should be able to find some clues from Linghan. Heh heh, little brat, I will find you. That body movement secret technique is destined for me, sooner or later it will be mine!"
After mumbling for a while, the withered old man floated away, like a ghost.
Gu Fan felt elated!
Running through the night, Gu Fan had an urge to let out a long cry.
This sudden increase in speed made Gu Fan truly understand what speed and passion meant.
After running for a while and confirming that the withered old man wasn't chasing him anymore, Gu Fan stopped.
He then lay on the ground, panting heavily!
The feeling of death approaching still hadn't completely dissipated, and the thought of it still sent shivers down his spine.
"My strength is still far too weak compared to the Foundation Establishment stage!" Gu Fan muttered to himself, thinking about the Qin family's villa in Changcheng. If Qin Jintian hadn't been scared by the fake talisman, what would have happened? He didn't dare to imagine.
"But, heh heh..." Thinking about the speed he had just achieved with Flash Void, Gu Fan's face showed a smile.
"If Master knew I had entered the initial stage of the first level of Flash Void at the Qi Condensation stage, how surprised would he be?" Gu Fan muttered, looking in a certain direction, as if he had returned to the Immortal Doctor Sect, to the moment his master walked into the ancestral tomb, and he had seen his master clearly!
"Master, wait for me, wait for me to gather the nine jade pieces and break the seal of this old heaven. You will definitely be able to advance and achieve the Golden Core stage!" Gu Fan clenched his fists.
After a moment of excitement, Gu Fan regained his composure.
"Linghan has such a powerful cultivator protecting him! This is too abnormal! Even with Linghan's father's status, it shouldn't be possible to have such a strong protector. Moreover, it can be 100% confirmed that the withered old man is not from the Special Operations Bureau. So, Linghan, no, the entire Ling family, must have a very big secret behind them! Although I don't know this secret yet, if I put myself in their shoes, how would they think, how would they act? Kill to silence? This is not impossible! Ningcheng is no longer safe to stay in! It's better to move first! Especially for Sister Lele, once Linghan starts investigating, it won't be hard to trace back to the source from the fates of Black Brother and Brother Jun..."
Gu Fan muttered, analyzing the situation, and his head started to hurt.
Even if he left now and returned to Lin County, it wouldn't be safe!
But it would be slightly better than staying in Ningcheng, right?
Gu Fan immediately took out his phone and called Cheng Shumeng!
Cheng Shumeng hadn't gone to sleep yet!
Although she had great confidence in Gu Fan, Ningcheng was unfamiliar territory, and what if something unexpected happened?
So, she couldn't sleep soundly until Gu Fan returned!
Her roommate, Huang Lelai, had already fallen asleep.
Suddenly, the phone rang. Seeing the number, Cheng Shumeng's spirits lifted, and she quickly answered.
"Mr. Gu!" Seeing Huang Lelai slowly open her eyes, startled by the phone, Cheng Shumeng changed the word "Master" to "Mr. Gu" at the last moment!
"Shumeng, is everyone okay?" Gu Fan asked.
"Everyone is fine, how about you?" Cheng Shumeng asked.
"I traced it back, and the source turned out to be a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator. I almost didn't escape! Ningcheng is too dangerous. Wake everyone up immediately and leave Ningcheng! Don't return to Lin County. Leave Xisheng Province first!" Gu Fan instructed, "Turn off their phones, and if possible, change the car!"
"Is it that serious?" Cheng Shumeng was shocked.
"Even more serious. Hurry, time is of the essence. If you're controlled, it will be too late!" Gu Fan said solemnly.
Gu Fan knew his own character. If Cheng Shumeng and the others were controlled by Linghan, he would never escape alone. That would put him in absolute danger.
There's a long road ahead. Once Gu Fan retrieves the Immortal Doctor Sect's legacy, he won't fear the withered old man anymore.
"What about you?" Cheng Shumeng asked anxiously.
"Keep your phone on. We'll contact each other once you leave Ningcheng. I'll find a way to meet up with you! Also, tell Sister Lelai to use the paper I gave her on Auntie. I'm afraid Auntie's body can't withstand this repeated strain!" Gu Fan instructed.
For now, they could only run, temporarily escape.
Linghan and that despicable Director Qin in the hospital would have to be dealt with another time.
"I understand, be careful!" Cheng Shumeng quickly hung up.
"Did you get any news from Gu Fan?" Huang Lelai, who had woken up completely during the call, asked urgently.
"Yes, Mr. Gu is safe, but there's an unexpected situation. We must leave immediately!" Cheng Shumeng said, "By the way, Mr. Gu said to use the paper he gave you on Auntie. He's afraid Auntie's body can't handle this repeated strain!"
"What exactly happened?" Huang Lelai was shocked. She had already heard some of it on the phone, but hearing it from Cheng Shumeng still left her in disbelief.
"It's hard to explain right now. We must leave immediately. You go wake up Uncle and Auntie, I'll wake up Xiaowei and Jiaxin!" Cheng Shumeng said decisively.
Cheng Shumeng knew Gu Fan's abilities well, and his current urgency indicated a very high level of danger.
She didn't want to be a burden to Gu Fan in any way! They must immediately follow Gu Fan's instructions and move.
Huang Lelai was stunned for a moment before rushing off!
When Chu Xiaowei and Chen Jiaxin were woken up, they were extremely dissatisfied.
After being kept up all night and just falling asleep, they were woken up again...
But when Cheng Shumeng explained the danger and the need to move immediately, they were initially surprised but quickly understood and cooperated.
They had already witnessed Cheng Shumeng's formidable martial prowess!
And now, even Cheng Shumeng was this afraid, it must be a serious matter.
Although they didn't know what had happened, they cooperated unconditionally, suppressing their curiosity for the moment.
Similarly, when Huang Yushu and Shi Fang were asked to move by Huang Lelai, they were also surprised but ultimately followed her instructions.
Huang Yushu carried Shi Fang out of the room!
The group left quickly!
When Chen Jiaxin was handling the check-out at the front desk, the receptionist was astonished!
Less than two hours after checking in, this was such a waste! Chen Jiaxin had booked a high-end suite, which was quite expensive!
But seeing Chen Jiaxin's determination, the receptionist didn't ask too many questions and processed the check-out.
By the time the procedures were completed, Chu Xiaowei and Cheng Shumeng were already waiting in the cars at the hotel entrance.
When Chen Jiaxin came out and got in the car, the two cars sped away into the night, heading for the nearest highway entrance in Ningcheng.
In the car, Huang Lelai took out the paper Gu Fan had given her.
Looking at the strange symbols on the paper, Huang Lelai bit her lip.
At this point, she had no choice but to trust Gu Fan.
"Father, please help Mother apply this to the affected area!" Huang Lelai said.
"What is this?" Huang Yushu took the paper, looking at Huang Lelai in confusion.
"I don't know either. It's from Gu Fan. He asked me to apply it to Mother... He said it would have some effect. Don't ask too many questions, just apply it!" Huang Lelai said firmly, which wasn't much of an explanation.
Even a sense of superstition enveloped her!
