Chapter 1035: Mirror Reflects Heaven and Earth

From the Foundation Establishment stage to the Nascent Soul stage, even with Li Fan's current proficiency, it would still take a considerable amount of time.

Moreover, the things he encountered were becoming increasingly dangerous; during this process, unforeseen complications might arise. The Foundation Establishment stage would make it difficult to cope.

Therefore, it was only natural for Li Fan to want to re-establish his anchor.

"If my plan goes smoothly, then before the end of this world, I might be able to take advantage of the gap while the Faceless True Immortal and the Immortal from the Immortal Ruins contend, to frantically draw upon the changes of the nascent Xuanhuang and achieve the Soul Transformation realm."

"From now on, starting each life with Soul Transformation cultivation comparable to the Longevity realm will make any planning much easier."

Li Fan's eyes flickered: "I still have two blank anchor points..."

The new Five Elements Heavenly Cave was still being conceived, and Li Fan's conjecture on how to add new anchor points had not yet been verified.

However, at the Root of Heaven and Earth in Tianling Continent, Li Fan had already found the corresponding paper figure in the Book of Transcending Calamity. As soon as there were signs of a new Heavenly Cave being conceived, Li Fan would be able to perceive it immediately.

Previously, Li Fan had studied the Book of Transcending Calamity; although he lacked the secret techniques of the Transcending Calamity Sect and thus couldn't fully control it, obtaining information about one or two key paper figures was still within his capabilities.

Not long ago, the paper figure Li Fan had pulled out of the hidden Heavenly Cave in front of Mo Rubin was one that he had imprinted with his own mark, to facilitate his constant monitoring of the situation there.

"Everything is ready, all that's missing is the east wind."

"Heavenly Profound Mirror, King Xuantian..."

Li Fan sat in the Spiritual Wood Realm, his gaze seemingly penetrating layers of world barriers, reaching the Myriad Immortals Alliance headquarters in the Xuanhuang World.

Mo Rubin did not make Li Fan wait too long.

Three months later, the Xuantian Spirit Sealing Array was nearing completion.

Li Fan and Mo Rubin met again in the hidden Heavenly Cave.

"The moment the restriction-breaking array is completed, it will inevitably cause some impact on the Alliance headquarters."

"I have secretly controlled some cultivators in the headquarters; at that time, they will riot and cause a distraction. Are you ready?" Mo Rubin's face showed rare seriousness.

Li Fan nodded: "Don't worry, I've already made contact. As soon as I receive your signal, the Council of Five Elders will cooperate by attacking the Alliance headquarters. Heh heh, they've never had such an opportunity to break into the Alliance headquarters, so how could they miss it?"

"It's also thanks to the Heavenly Profound Mirror acting as an inside man; otherwise, they wouldn't even know the location of the Alliance headquarters."

"However, the cultivation power the Council of Five Elders can deploy is limited. The highest is only at the Soul Transformation realm, and even with the advantage of artifacts, they won't last long."

In these three months, Li Fan also contacted the Council of Five Elders.

He easily convinced them to attempt this.

However, he did not explicitly state that it was to help the Heavenly Profound Mirror escape, only that it was to seek something crucial within the Myriad Immortals Alliance headquarters.

While the Council of Five Elders was very interested in causing trouble at the Myriad Immortals Alliance headquarters, they currently had no intention of completely breaking ties.

Therefore, the help they could provide was limited; all those Soul Transformation cultivators were not native cultivators of the Council of Five Elders. They were merely devoted operatives trained within the Myriad Immortals Alliance.

The Council of Five Elders overtly stated this, but it cannot be ruled out that they might have other secret plans.

After all, an opportunity to invade the Myriad Immortals Alliance headquarters...

A once-in-a-millennium chance!

Mo Rubin handed a simple copper mirror to Li Fan, instructing: "Take this item and provide support from the outside. You must be within the central four continents of the Alliance; otherwise, the distance will be too great, and you won't be able to sense it."

"After the restriction is broken, the Xuantian Treasure Mirror will first reside within me. Then, once we converge, it will transfer to this copper mirror."

Upon hearing this, Li Fan couldn't help but examine the small mirror in his hand, which subtly showed signs of rust.

It seemed quite old.

"This was once a World-tier artifact, but during the Great Calamity, it lost all its spirituality. Only its physical body remained."

"It's sufficient to serve as a temporary vessel for the Xuantian Treasure Mirror."

"As for what comes next..."

Mo Rubin pondered for a moment, then said: "It's estimated that it will merge with its human body."

Li Fan was slightly surprised: "Wouldn't that leave no escape route..."

"No..." Li Fan suddenly realized.

"The Xuantian Treasure Mirror is actually so decisive?"

According to the Heavenly Profound Mirror itself, its human body was a means of achieving its Dao.

As long as its main body existed, the human body could not be completely destroyed. Even if annihilated, it could quickly regenerate.

However, if the human body were to merge with the Heavenly Profound Mirror, then once the Heavenly Profound Mirror was destroyed, it would likely truly vanish from this world.

Mo Rubin seemed to see through Li Fan's thoughts and shook his head slightly: "Even without its main body, how could an Immortal Artifact Spirit be so easily extinguished? I think even if the Dharma Transmitters acted, they might not truly be able to obliterate it. Only an existence like an Immortal could truly harm it. We don't need to worry about it."

"However, leaving no retreat also shows that it's not secretly playing tricks," Li Fan agreed.

"Indeed, it seems so for now. But we still cannot let down our guard. Apart from a few specific individuals, we should not trust anyone else," Mo Rubin reminded again, clearly affected by the destruction of the Xuantian Sect back then.

Li Fan naturally did not refute.

After a final discussion of the operational details, Mo Rubin's figure slowly vanished.

Li Fan quietly flew to a cave dwelling in Shuofeng, Tianquan Continent, and waited patiently.

Within a five-hundred-mile radius of this cave dwelling, everything had been purchased by Immortal Venerable Feixue. No other cultivators ventured there, making it relatively safe.

Lying low, Li Fan looked up at the sky, his mind pondering the location of the Alliance headquarters.

The four central continents of the Alliance were all connected to the Alliance headquarters.

"When I entered and exited the Alliance headquarters, I used entry points in all four of these continents."

"Clearly, the spatial nodes are all interconnected..."

"It seems the main body of the Heavenly Profound Mirror must be quite massive."

Time slowly passed as Li Fan pondered.

Half a day later, an inexplicable tremor between heaven and earth caught Li Fan's attention.

The sky, at some unknown point, was tinged with a strange green hue.

As if being bombarded by something, the earth trembled, and continuous roaring sounds echoed through the sky.

Cracks even appeared between heaven and earth.

It was as if the apocalypse had arrived, and the entire world was about to shatter!

"Such a massive commotion?"

Li Fan was startled, but the ancient copper mirror in his embrace showed no reaction.

The unusual phenomena between heaven and earth did not disappear but became even more pronounced.

Most notably, the firmament began to reflect the shadow of the earth.

It was as if the sky had turned into a mirror, reflecting everything on the ground!

Li Fan watched this scene, and a sudden ominous premonition arose in his heart.

He narrowed his eyes, concealing his figure.

But whether it was an illusion or not, in the reflection in the sky, Li Fan seemed to still see his own silhouette.
