Angry Squid
Unable to find a way to escape the dream in a short time, Sun Erlang and his companions conferred and decided to first enhance their strength within the dream.
Among the three, Yue Zhenwei possessed the Purple Gold Gourd, and Sun Erlang had the Spirit Devouring Art. Only Wang Xuanba had gained nothing in the dream world yet, making him their weakest link.
So, the three pooled their Paradise Coins and purchased a body-protection divine ability specifically for Wang Xuanba.
"Immortal Samsara Body (Initial Stage)""A supreme art from the ancient Immortal Sect of the Xuanhuang Realm, the Samsara Sect. With minor mastery, one becomes immune to damage from Yin, Yang, and the Five Elements. With great mastery, one is virtually immortal, imperishable, and invulnerable to all calamities."
These brief lines of description immediately led Wang Xuanba to decisively choose this divine ability.
Sun Erlang's expression was a little odd as he muttered, "If this Samsara Sect's divine ability was truly as powerful as described, how could their sect have been easily destroyed back then?"
Yue Zhenwei smiled. "It's only 5,000 Paradise Coins, so how truly powerful can it be? But I imagine it's sufficient for self-defense at this stage."
After completing the exchange, Wang Xuanba felt the changes in his body and said, "Actually, there's another good body-protection divine ability called 'Carefree Transcendence Intent'. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to originate from the Xuanhuang Realm, and I'm not very clear on its background. Plus, its artistic conception isn't quite to my liking..."
Sun Erlang mused, "I've noticed that many items in this Celestial Venerable's Treasury don't seem to be native to the Xuanhuang Realm. Could it be that this Worry-Free Dream Paradise encompasses things and events from beyond the Xuanhuang Realm?"
The three exchanged glances, gaining a new understanding of the Worry-Free Celestial Venerable's power.
The remaining Paradise Coins were not enough to exchange for entry into the dream world. The three had no choice but to wait for a free dream to open.
It must be said, the term "Paradise" was truly no exaggeration.
Even when not in a custom-tailored dream, the ordinary Paradise offered cultivators a vast realm where they could indulge in enjoyment.
"It encompasses not only the normal territories of the Five Elders' Assembly but also allows normal access to the Myriad Immortals Alliance. However, within the Dream Paradise, the Dharma Transmission Celestial Venerable and the Myriad Immortals Alliance organization do not exist. Cultivation resources are inexhaustible, and there is no killing or conflict; cultivators can fully enjoy the magnificent beauty of the vast world. For even a tiny amount of Paradise Coins, one can establish a cave dwelling anywhere in the Xuanhuang Realm.""Furthermore, with the Celestial Venerable's great power reflecting, countless cave dwellings can be superimposed even in the same area. There is no need to compete for land, and cultivators can enter and exit without encountering others..."
A miniature landscape of the Xuanhuang Realm appeared before Sun Erlang and his companions.
Any location in the displayed scene could be instantly reached by spending a single-digit amount of Paradise Coins.
And even...
"One can even leave the Xuanhuang Realm and live in other cultivation realms across the starry sky?""Each realm boasts magnificent scenery, no less impressive than the Xuanhuang Realm."
A look of longing immediately appeared on Sun Erlang's face.
"Unfortunately, it seems one must reach Paradise Experience Level 6 to be eligible."
Their attempt failed, leaving Sun Erlang and his companions somewhat regretful.
The silver eye displayed Sun Erlang and his companions' experiences in the Paradise one by one.
Just like Li Fan's eye, it allowed him to know what was happening inside the Paradise even without personally entering it.
"To survive the Myriad Transformations to Void Great Array, and even have the spare capacity to provide shelter—this Worry-Free Paradise is indeed extraordinary."
"Its dream scope even extends beyond the Xuanhuang Realm, spreading towards the Dark Star Sea?" This genuinely surprised Li Fan.
From the Great Qi Minor World, he gazed towards the Five Elders' Assembly territory, his eyes flickering. "What Worry-Free described in the dream shouldn't be fabricated. Some of the descriptions of the cultivation realms align with what I know."
"The Star Sea has long been a void, utterly silent."
"Yet Worry-Free can recreate scenes from the cultivation realms of the past..."
"There are several possibilities. One, Worry-Free has visited these cultivation realms. Two, it's recreating them based on ancient texts and records."
"Or perhaps..." A thought stirred in Li Fan's mind.
"That Worry-Free Celestial Venerable might be using the remnants of countless worlds from the Great Wall of Ruined Realms as a blueprint. If this guess is true, it means Worry-Free, or the power of the Dream Paradise, has even reached beneath the High Wall?"
"Deep unknown dreams..."
At this thought, Li Fan immediately became serious.
"The High Wall's blockade, King Xuantians' message, the High Wall's flaw.""Dao Transformation Stone Mother, Taiyan Sect's immortal information, the entire sect's escape.""Worry-Free Dream Paradise."
Countless pieces of known information converged in Li Fan's mind in an instant. Before long, a bold idea suddenly emerged.
"Could it be that the Worry-Free Celestial Venerable, relying on the power of the Paradise Dream, has already made some contact with the High Wall's flaw?"
If it were before, Li Fan certainly wouldn't have made such a guess.
After all, the Xuanhuang cultivators, whose paradoxical longevity had been suppressed by the Dharma Transmission for thousands of years, gaining the ability to cross the High Wall in an instant seemed absurd no matter how one looked at it.
However, considering the Worry-Free Paradise's performance under the Immortal World-Destroying Array in the previous life,
This conjecture became more plausible.
"Perhaps it's precisely because in reality, due to the constraints of the new Dharma, they could only remain subservient to the Dharma Transmission.""That's why this group from the Five Elders' Assembly chose a different path.""If they truly possess this capability, then it explains why these five Immortal Realm cultivators have remained so quiet all this time.""They were merely trying to buy as much time as possible."
Li Fan knew that the above were merely his conjectures with little basis.
But for him, whether there was concrete evidence or not didn't matter. As long as there was even a shred of doubt, it was extremely necessary to investigate it.
"In any case, the Worry-Free Paradise welcomes all. One only needs to pass the so-called dream trials."
"And what I lack least are various kinds of cultivators."
In an instant, Li Fan's gaze, through the sermon platform, fell upon suitable candidates within numerous minor worlds.
Silently, they received the faint guidance of the Saint Master. They vanished from their original locations, en route to the Worry-Free Paradise.
They became Li Fan's eyes and ears for gathering information about the Paradise.
"Though the Paradise is vast, a single thought can navigate it!"
Li Fan wasn't worried that the Worry-Free Celestial Venerable would turn hostile over his blatant probing into the Paradise's secrets.
In this life, he had always remained behind the scenes.
His methods of controlling these cultivator pawns originated from the power of the Immortal Realm's Nine-Star Red Pearl and ancient immortal arrays.
Li Fan didn't believe Worry-Free could discern and locate him.
Furthermore, even if Worry-Free genuinely discovered he was secretly at work, what then?
The current Li Fan was imbued with various divine abilities. As long as a true immortal didn't personally arrive, nothing else could threaten him.
There was no need to be overly restrained anymore.
Li Fan created another simulated persona, specifically to constantly oversee the Paradise information gathered.
The Paradise held too many hidden secrets for these pawns to uncover overnight.
Next, Li Fan focused his attention on the Final Disintegration Disk.
In this life, the Disintegration Disk's long-standing mission of deducing and downgrading immortal arrays finally made breakthrough progress.
Originally, the Disintegration Disk's deduction process had been very slow. Being able to deduce immortal arrays was one thing; simplifying them without significantly compromising their power was another entirely.
However, things took a turn after Li Fan repeatedly ascended and surveyed the Star Sea from an elevated perspective.
"The projection of the Great Dao, from top to bottom, resembles an inverted cone."
"The principles of the Immortal Realm are indeed extraordinarily profound, beyond what mere mortals of the lower realms can glimpse.""Yet, mortals are the foundation of the Great Dao.""The two have commonalities."
This was the insight that arose in Li Fan's heart as he studied the transformations of truth and falsehood.
Based on this theory, the Disintegration Disk used the commonalities between immortals and mortals as a breakthrough point, finally completing the preliminary deduction for immortal array downgrading.
The first immortal array to be simplified and used for practical verification was naturally the Immortal Descent, Myriad Transformations to Void.
After all, in this life, the Xuanhuang Grand Celestial Venerable's immortal spirit energy legacy was needed to elevate the Xuanhuang Realm.If this world-destroying immortal array couldn't be activated, Li Fan's deterrent capability would undoubtedly be greatly weakened.
Moreover, once the plan to elevate the Xuanhuang Realm succeeded, if he didn't possess a means to overturn the situation, Li Fan would certainly fall into an extremely passive position.
A phantom wooden sword flickered, and Li Fan arrived in the Dark Star Sea to begin his experiment.
With a gentle tap forward, numerous golden threads instantly appeared, like countless paintbrushes sketching profound array unit structures in the void.
The Myriad Transformations to Void Array used for this experiment only covered an area of ten feet in radius.
Therefore, the required consumption of primordial essence wasn't much.
As the array's construction details became increasingly perfect, the world-destroying immortal array slowly took shape.
The downgrading of an immortal array absolutely did not mean a reduction in the quality of its power.
It merely meant that at the cost of limited sacrifice, energy forms existing among mortals could drive the immortal array.
Golden light spread, and the moment the array was completed, all light instantly vanished.
Sensing the pitch-black, yet secretly terrifying destructive power in the area ahead, Li Fan silently placed a layer of sword shadow protection on himself.
Ensuring no accidents would occur, Li Fan then took out a black star stone and threw it towards the Myriad Transformations to Void Array ahead.
This black star stone was one of the treasures Li Fan had taken from the first layer of the Immortal Vessel's secret treasury when he left the Profound Immortal Vessel.
It was formed from impurities that could not be destroyed after the collapse of cultivation realms.
It was the physical equivalent of a world's wraith.
Its ability to survive true immortal power spoke volumes about the hardness of this black stone.
But the moment the black stone entered the Myriad Transformations to Void Array, it was as if countless sharp carving knives struck it simultaneously.
Clearly visible etchings instantly appeared on the black stone.
The etchings appeared faster and faster.
With a 'poof', the black stone shattered into pieces, cut apart by the immortal array.
However, the world-destroying storm continued unabated.
It continued to rage fiercely.
These tiny stone fragments were cut smaller and smaller, almost becoming invisible to the naked eye.
"Compared to the world-destroying immortal array of the previous life, its power is indeed somewhat reduced.""But since it's driven by primordial essence, it's absolutely acceptable."
Having completed the test, Li Fan immediately stopped the array. He then collected the black stones, which had been shattered into fine sand-like particles.
"An excellent forging material, it mustn't be wasted. Being able to withstand true immortal power for a moment means it can be a life-saving item in critical moments."
Next, Li Fan proceeded to downgrade and verify all other immortal arrays he mastered, such as Desolate Fall and Empty Room Flourishing.
Without exception, all were successfully completed.
Immortal arrays that previously existed only in the theoretical deductions of the Disintegration Disk could finally manifest in reality, even before Li Fan had mastered true immortal power.
His heart was naturally filled with joy.
After quietly savoring the profound mysteries of the immortal arrays, Li Fan immediately returned to the Xuanhuang Realm.
He quietly began setting up arrays throughout the various un-elevated parts of the world.
With Li Fan's current array mastery, combined with the assistance of the Final Disintegration Disk, setting up arrays wouldn't be very difficult, even without the Xuanhuang Grand Celestial Venerable's direct help.
The main limitations were the quantity of raw materials and primordial essence.
Even though the number of Netherworld cultivators accumulated in this life was already sufficient, the primordial essence was still somewhat inadequate for Li Fan's various needs.
A portion had to be kept in reserve for unforeseen circumstances.
Once his reserves were depleted, Li Fan had to wait for the Netherworld cultivators to produce more primordial essence before slowly arranging the arrays.
During this time, Li Fan didn't forget to proactively inquire about Mo Rubin, who was at the foot of the High Wall, comprehending that flaw.
"Brother Mo, thirty days have passed. Have you made any progress?"
After a long pause, Mo Rubin's faint reply came.
"Temporarily... no. However, I feel I'm not far from true comprehension."
"Brother Mo, you previously agreed that if there were no results within thirty days, you would immediately turn back and never look at the High Wall's secrets again," Li Fan reminded him with a sigh.
Mo Rubin was silent for a moment.
Then, with a somewhat obsessive oath, he declared, "Give me another thirty days. It's just one step away; if I leave now, I'm afraid I'll never be content for the rest of my life. Just give me another thirty days!"
"After thirty days, I... I will definitely make a decision!"
Mo Rubin did not respond again.
Li Fan smiled faintly.
The High Wall's secrets were to Mo Rubin what the murals on Hero's Island were to the martial arts heroes.
Their allure even surpassed his own life.
It was truly not something that could be easily abandoned.
Even if Li Fan were to ask again after thirty days, he would surely receive the same reply.
"If it weren't for the strange black vortex that appeared in the center of the Star Sea, Mo Rubin probably wouldn't have even set this thirty-day period."
Thinking of the inexplicable black mist, a trace of gloom flashed in Li Fan's eyes.
He had already guessed that the appearance of this black mist was likely related to his rash use of the ascension array.
However, Li Fan had already re-investigated all the locations where he had previously used the ascension array.
Not all locations had black mist breeding.
Li Fan speculated that it might be closely related to things falling from "high places."
"It's like ripples on the water's surface; only when something large enough plunges into the depths do the splashes become noticeable enough."
"My personal shortcuts, falling from a position of power, are insignificant."
"But if it were an entire realm..."
"The power of its fall would be enough to breed black mist."
"However, the center of the Star Sea is an exception. Perhaps it's related to the unique nature of that particular 'water surface' itself."
Li Fan pondered silently.
He had observed the spread rate of this black mist in the Star Sea.
He confirmed that in this life, before he completed the Xuanhuang elevation plan, this black mist would not affect the Xuanhuang Realm in any way.
Therefore, even leaving them alone for now wouldn't cause any major issues.
"The only concern is that if the black mist increases further, it might alarm the True Immortal undergoing enlightenment in the Immortal Ruins."
Facts had proven that the True Immortal was not truly oblivious to the external environment.
If anything influential or even threatening to them arose, they would definitely emerge from their state of enlightenment.
Their disturbance by the Medicine King Cauldron and the Myriad Transformations to Void Array in previous reincarnation cycles was the best proof.
"Is this a sign of the Calamity of Dao Annihilation approaching?"
Li Fan murmured Mo Rubin's speculation about the black mist,
while his mind focused on a mass of black mist sealed by golden light within his own body.
This was precisely what he had obtained earlier by using "White Circle Descends to Mortal Dust" to decompose the true immortal's flesh and blood.
The power level of this black mist was clearly not on the same level as that generated by a fall after ascension.
Yet, it still sent shivers down Li Fan's spine.
"What was the true cause of the Calamity of Dao Annihilation that destroyed the Immortal Realm back then?"
This, of course, was not a problem Li Fan should be concerned about at the moment.
But it was a reality he couldn't escape as his strength continuously improved.
Li Fan's ascension and fall were by no means the fundamental cause of the black mist's birth. They were merely like a fuse, prematurely igniting the world-destroying calamity hidden beneath the calm surface.
Li Fan was certain that even without his actions in this life, the lower realm's Star Sea would likely still follow in the footsteps of the former Immortal Realm.
"It truly is relentless, allowing no one to catch their breath."
"How incredibly difficult it is to achieve true eternal freedom and transcendence."
Li Fan currently had no means to counter the various aspects of the black mist. He merely snorted coldly, firmly imprinting its existence in his mind.
It took Li Fan nearly an entire month to finally complete the arrangement of the Myriad Transformations to Void Array in this life.
The array's network was quietly hidden beneath the Xuanhuang land.
Once the primordial essence coalesced, as long as the array wasn't activated, the beings within the realm would be unable to detect it.
The instant the array was completed, only a very small number of beings in the Xuanhuang Realm suddenly felt a sense of impending disaster.
But soon, this intuition vanished, as if it had been entirely their imagination.
Even the Heavenly Dao of Xuanhuang only had a faint perception of Li Fan's actions, not being entirely certain.
This could be seen from the fact that the Xuanhuang Heavenly Dao's favorability had barely decreased.
Li Fan's eyes, devoid of any emotional fluctuation, watched the myriad beings of the Xuanhuang Realm, who had gone from fear back to tranquility.
"Sometimes, people still need to trust their intuition."
After quietly uttering this, Li Fan was about to return to Great Qi when his gaze suddenly fell upon one particular being in the Xuanhuang Realm.
This person was no stranger to Li Fan.
It was Zhang Haobo.
At the beginning of the reincarnation cycle, Li Fan had some interactions with him, He Zhenghao, and others.
However, as Li Fan's strength grew increasingly formidable, these individuals rarely entered his sight anymore.
This time, it was merely a casual glance back after completing the array and before departing.
But it was this casual glance that rekindled Li Fan's interest in Zhang Haobo.
In this life, when Li Fan set up the Immortal Descent, Myriad Transformations to Void Array, he habitually started from the familiar Congyun Sea.
A month ago, when he had just begun setting up the array, Zhang Haobo, still a mortal, was still on Liuli Island in the Congyun Sea.
But now, a month later, Zhang Haobo had left the Congyun Sea, bringing his entire family with him.
"The Blazing Flame Burning Sea has come early?" Li Fan paused slightly, surprised.
He did a quick divination but found no signs of the Burning Sea Calamity approaching earlier than expected.
"Why did he run then?" Li Fan couldn't help but become a little interested.
His divine sense locked onto Zhang Haobo.
He found that Zhang Haobo was still restless and uneasy even after fleeing the Congyun Sea. In his words, he seemed to want to lead everyone to continue fleeing.
However, under the strong opposition of his exhausted family, Zhang Haobo ultimately compromised and gave up the idea.
Yet, he still looked deeply worried, constantly gazing up at the sky, seemingly anxious about something.
Naturally, Zhang Haobo's family found his behavior difficult to understand.
Zhang Haobo remained dejected and troubled all day long.
Perhaps Li Fan was the only one in the entire Xuanhuang Realm who could understand the source of his worries.
"He can actually sense the world-destroying killing intent I laid down?"
Li Fan's expression became distant, as if he had returned to a long time ago when Zhang Haobo, then a fisherman, told him about the changes in Congyun Sea before fleeing with his family.
Then, with a gentle wave of his hand, Zhang Haobo appeared before Li Fan, as if sculpted from ice.
If Zhang Haobo's ability to perceive the changes in Congyun Sea was due to his fisherman's intuition,
then his ability to faintly sense a world-destroying crisis after the Myriad Transformations to Void Array was completed was absolutely extraordinary.
"Could it be that some secret is hidden within this old acquaintance?"
Li Fan's divine sense instantly swept over Zhang Haobo's body.
He was still a mortal, without cultivation. There was no way he could hide anything from Li Fan.
Inside Zhang Haobo's brain, almost fused with his brain tissue, lay a shimmering mirror fragment.
It was only about one-third the size of a fingernail.
The aura emanating from it was not unfamiliar to Li Fan.
"This is..."
"A fragment of the Immeasurable Mirror?"
After a careful look, Li Fan instantly understood the reason behind it.
Sun Luyao, the spirit of the Immeasurable Mirror, had once said that some fragments of the Immeasurable Mirror still existed in the Xuanhuang Realm.
In his previous life, he had accompanied them in searching for and finding most of them.
But some were still unfound. Perhaps they had been swallowed by the Xuanhuang World, participating in the cycle of heavenly and earthly marvels.
And it was precisely one of these Immeasurable Mirror fragments that caused Zhang Haobo's premonitions to be different from ordinary people's.
The Immeasurable Mirror possessed the ability to deduce the future, and accordingly, Zhang Haobo gained a premonition of impending disaster.
"A single fragment can sense the great array I've set up?" Li Fan frowned.
He then took out the mirror fragment, held it in his palm, and carefully examined it.
"So that's it. This fragment is considered the core part of the Immeasurable Mirror responsible for external perception and data collection. It's even more sensitive than the main body of the Immeasurable Mirror that Sun Luyao found."
"As an immortal artifact, it's normal for it to be able to sense an immortal array."
Li Fan looked at Zhang Haobo, who still stood motionless beside him.
"Unfortunately, this immortal artifact fragment is simply too small."
"When Zhang Haobo was a mortal, this immortal artifact fragment could still influence him."
"However, once Zhang Haobo embarked on the path of cultivation, especially after entering the Foundation Establishment stage and acquiring his own Foundation Establishment wonder, the immortal artifact fragment's influence on him was weakened instead."
"Perhaps there's even a bit of indignation and retaliation towards Zhang Haobo for being oblivious to its true value, choosing not to merge with his own immortal artifact fragment but instead integrating with other wonders."
Li Fan smiled. In his palm, the Xuanhuang World-Destroying Transformation: Flow of Years, Sea Turns to Mulberry Fields, was unleashed with a roar.
The mirror fragment seemed to sense something, flickering rapidly, its light changing with increasing urgency.
But once in Li Fan's hand, how could it possibly escape?
As time flowed, like the waxing and waning of light from rising and setting suns, the mirror fragment transformed into streaks of flowing light.
It was scattered by the wind, vanishing between heaven and earth.
Like its main body, it met the same fate. It was used by Li Fan as nourishment to feed the Xuanhuang World.
Sensing the Xuanhuang's favorability, which had slightly dropped due to the array's setup, return to normal, Li Fan nodded in satisfaction.
With a wave of his hand, he sent Zhang Haobo back to his original location.
Without the Immeasurable Mirror fragment disturbing his mind, the incessant worries that had plagued him would cease to exist.
From then on, he would live a carefree life with his family on the Xuanhuang land.
It was unclear whether this was a blessing or a misfortune.
The incident with Zhang Haobo served as a reminder to Li Fan.
Although the immortal array was complete and beings in the Xuanhuang Realm could no longer detect it,
immortal artifacts like the Heavenly Profound Mirror, even if they couldn't necessarily sense the array itself, might still perceive the crisis it caused.
"I need to take extra precautions."
"But there's no need to worry too much. After all, what can they do just by sensing it?"
A hint of disdain flashed in Li Fan's eyes.
"If they truly dare to leap out, then it would be perfect..."
"Burn them all and feed them to the Xuanhuang Realm as nourishment!"
Now that he had mastered the method of downgrading immortal arrays and could set them up at any time, Li Fan,
indeed had the right to say so.
"Furthermore..."
Li Fan's gaze once again swept over the myriad beings of the Xuanhuang Realm he had glimpsed earlier.
He particularly focused on those beings who, even with the immortal array concealed, still faintly sensed the Myriad Transformations to Void Array.
After a review, he indeed found some immortal artifact fragments that were still being assimilated.
All of them were nearing the end of the world's assimilation process, with very little remaining.
For Li Fan, they were all useless.
He simply fed them all to the Xuanhuang World.
Then he monitored again.
Ultimately, there were no more gains.
Li Fan slowly withdrew his gaze.
"It seems there are very few secrets useful to me still hidden in the Xuanhuang Realm."
"As for the rest..."
"I'll have to wait until I ascend with the World Immortal Soul before I can explore them," Li Fan couldn't help but sigh.
While preparing for the Xuanhuang's elevation, Li Fan also had a task from the Profound Immortal Vessel.
He first used a ritual to designate a minor world with a population of thirty million as his submission for the task.
Li Fan paused again for a moment.
Because he sensed that the Nameless one from the Thirteen Peaks World was about to emerge.
With a thought, the scene of that minor world instantly appeared before his eyes.
Having completed his integration with the minor world's Heavenly Dao, the Nameless one descended the mountain joyfully.
After waving goodbye to his few relatives in the world, the Nameless one stepped out, leaping beyond the Thirteen Peaks World.
Appearing before him was a school of over a hundred Realm-Splitting Whales, swimming freely in the dark void.
The Realm-Splitting Whales moved in groups, opening up the void as they frolicked.
This magnificent spectacle deeply captivated the Nameless one, who had never seen anything beyond mountains and rivers.
Many days passed before he finally came back to his senses.
Then, with some reluctance, he walked step by step towards the Xuanhuang Realm.
Strictly speaking, the Nameless one at this moment had not yet embarked on the path of cultivation. He was merely a frail mortal.
However, possessing the Heavenly Dao of a minor world, he was not merely a helpless mortal.
With Li Fan's previously hidden guidance, the Immortal Annihilation Array naturally could not trap the Nameless one.
The Nameless one followed step by step, breaking through layers of arrays, just like Li Fan once did.
Finally descending into the Xuanhuang Realm!
The vast sky, the white mist spanning heaven and earth.
The scorching sun, the gently blowing fresh breeze.
Immersed in this beauty beyond his comprehension, the Nameless one was entranced.
He remained motionless for a long time.
Just as before, when he quietly lay on the mountaintop, comprehending the world's Heavenly Dao.
A profound aura emerged from the Nameless one.
He had, in an instant, successfully drawn Qi into his body, entering the Qi Refining stage.
His aura continued to rise but suddenly stopped, as if a river had met a dam.
It abruptly halted.
The Nameless one, who had been meditating with closed eyes, couldn't help but open them, filled with confusion.
When he looked up at the sky again, he already saw the various constraints left by the Dharma Transmission Celestial Venerable in this world.
In the past, he could have instantly transformed into a Spirit God with a single step, just like Mr. Bai.
But now, times had long since changed.
However, the Nameless one was not discouraged.
He proceeded just like Heavenly Dao Bai, whom Li Fan had once summoned, following the current cultivation rules of the Xuanhuang Realm.
He began to wander through the Xuanhuang world, searching for materials needed for cultivation.
The Nameless one extended his hand, feeling the wind blowing through the Xuanhuang Realm.
Searching for the heavenly and earthly wonders needed to break through to Foundation Establishment.
He remained motionless for a long time.
Then he suddenly opened his eyes and strode forward.
"He didn't immediately initiate the ritual to enter the Immortalfall Realm. Instead, he chose to cultivate," Li Fan remarked with interest, secretly observing the Nameless one's every move.
Li Fan was not worried that the Nameless one's unusual actions would affect his plans.
Because he noticed that the hint he left behind was still effective.
"It's just that since it was merely a hint, his subjective initiative is much stronger compared to a puppet like Sun Tianci."
"If he wants to cultivate, then let him cultivate."
"The immortal path ahead is impassable, and the Dharma Transmission Celestial Venerable is above. No matter how talented one is, they cannot surpass the Dharma Transmission."
"Even if the Dharma Transmission Celestial Venerable himself arrives, he would have to sit down and have a proper talk with me."
Despite saying this, Li Fan still dispatched a simulated persona to constantly monitor the Nameless one's actions.
The schemes of this life could not afford any failure.
His attention shifted from the Nameless one, returning to the silver eye before him, which resembled a pet.
Having been fed too many World Heavenly Grids over this period, the silver eye—this simulated Heavenly Grid created by Li Fan—seemed to be on the verge of its final transformation.
Its aura surged unpredictably.
Its eyeball constantly revolved, but its focus always remained on Li Fan.
Li Fan pondered, then carefully selected another Heavenly Grid from a medium-sized minor world.
He fed it to the silver eye.
A trace of light immediately burst forth from it.
