Chapter 455: Sealing Great Immortal Island

Lu Xichan frowned slightly as she gazed at the drill hall on Myriad Immortals Island, which had already vanished into nothingness.

Fine green threads appeared, coiling around her fingertips.

She gazed at the familiar yet strange green light, a flicker of surprise in her eyes.

Even though Cloudsea was a remote place, not many cultivators knew Lu Xichan's identity.

Yet, under her intimidating presence, even without a word from her, Myriad Immortals Island fell into complete silence.

The cultivators dared not look directly at her, merely keeping their eyes downcast like Li Fan.

At the same time, they speculated in their hearts about the identity of this female cultivator.

Eventually, two figures flew out from the Central Administrative Hall on the island to greet her.

They were a man and a woman, none other than Ziyun and Hongxi, the only two Soul Transformation True Monarchs in Cloudsea.

"Greetings, Chief Lu!"

They bowed in unison, their faces showing a hint of nervousness.

Anyone who could command such cautious respect from Cloudsea's top two leaders must certainly be an extraordinarily important figure!

The cultivators, who were now bowing their heads, were shocked yet also filled with curiosity.

They all secretly wondered why a figure of Chief Lu's caliber would come to a remote frontier like Cloudsea.

Could it be just for this inexplicably appearing green light?

"No need for such formalities; let's get down to business."

Lu Xichan glanced at the cultivators below on Myriad Immortals Island and said coldly, "Effective immediately, seal off Myriad Immortals Island. No one is permitted to leave without my order."

As she spoke, she pointed a finger at the sky.

Transparent patterns spread out from the center, quickly enveloping the entire island.

"I've already arranged to sever the connection between the Sky Profound Mirror here and the outside world. Ordinary communication methods have also been blocked by me."

"Until this matter is fully investigated, you are responsible for maintaining order on the island."

Upon hearing this, Hongxi also realized the gravity of the situation.

He immediately nodded in assent.

Upon hearing Lu Xichan's words, all the cultivators on the island exchanged glances.

It seems something truly major has happened!

The entire island had been sealed off, with entry permitted but exit forbidden.

Such a large-scale operation was likely the first of its kind since Myriad Immortals Island was established!

Li Fan, hiding in the crowd, also felt a little uneasy.

The development of events in this life had greatly surpassed his expectations.

Originally, he had only planned to play the part of a charlatan to muddle through the Myriad Immortals Alliance's investigation.

He never expected that Gongsun Qixuan was truly worthy of his reputation; he had actually deduced something based on the Sky Profound Spirit Lock and Primordial Unity.

And even activated green energy similar to the Profound Net.

What was even more unexpected was that a disturbance from countless miles away instantly attracted Lu Xichan's attention.

She came directly across states and sealed off Myriad Immortals Island.

"'He could only take it one step at a time,' Li Fan thought, narrowing his eyes slightly. 'If I can safely get through this, the situation can return to my control.' He began to adjust his original plans in his mind."

After Lu Xichan took over Myriad Immortals Island, black-robed cultivators began to arrive one after another via teleportation arrays.

They exuded an unshakeable murderous aura and spread out across the island to patrol and monitor.

Meanwhile, the cultivators were grouped and brought in for questioning in sequence.

The first to be questioned were, naturally, the survivors of the anomaly in the drill hall.

And Li Fan, as the instigator of this incident, was also the first to be interrogated.

Fortunately, he didn't have to face Lu Xichan herself.

However, he vaguely sensed faint gazes subtly falling upon him, so Li Fan did not let his guard down.

With a pale face, he pretended to still be recovering from his recent injuries.

Li Fan honestly explained what had happened earlier in the drill hall.

"'After I deduced that phrase, I suffered a Heavenly Secret backlash,' he said. 'As for what Elder Gongsun actually saw, and why he could trigger that terrifying green light, I don't know.'"

Li Fan coughed, looking innocent, and shifted all the blame to Gongsun Qixuan.

The three cultivators responsible for the interrogation asked for a few more details before taking Li Fan to a small, dark room deep within the Administrative Hall to be detained.

Li Fan appeared very cooperative throughout.

The small dark room was isolated from the outside world, making it impossible to know what was happening on Myriad Immortals Island.

Li Fan simply closed his eyes and began to cultivate.

Meanwhile, on Taian Island.

The clone "Zhou Qing'ang" quietly left the island's defensive formation and headed to the agreed meeting place with the Broken Stone Human Face.

"Boss, there's big trouble!"

Before the other side could question him, Li Fan preempted him.

"Uh... why panic? Tell me calmly!" the Human Face reprimanded.

"It seems a major incident has happened on Myriad Immortals Island; we've completely lost contact with the cultivators there since just now!" Li Fan said, his fearful tone carrying a hint of excitement.

"Furthermore, before I came here, I made some inquiries. Before the island was sealed off, someone saw a streak of rainbow light coming from the center of the Myriad Immortals Alliance, traveling across states and descending upon Myriad Immortals Island."

"This lockdown must certainly be related to that streak of rainbow light!" Li Fan quickly added.

The Human Face was also startled by this unexpected news.

It was silent for a long time, seemingly verifying the information's accuracy.

A moment later, he said, somewhat shocked, "It's really true!"

"What is the Myriad Immortals Alliance up to?!"

"Wait... that streak of rainbow light..."

"Lu Xichan!"

The Human Face's voice instantly grew louder.

"Boss, who is Lu Xichan?" Li Fan immediately feigned intense curiosity and asked aloud.

"The Chief of the Strategy Hall of the Myriad Immortals Alliance — she's a truly formidable figure. Why would she come to Cloudsea?" In the Human Face's voice, there was a mix of doubt and exhilaration.

Like a hungry wolf encountering its prey, he keenly sensed that there was definitely some world-shattering secret hidden within this event.

If he could only uncover it...

"Boss, isn't this an excellent chance for us to make our mark!" Li Fan feigned understanding and chimed in.

"Indeed! We must definitely investigate the reason for her coming to Cloudsea!" the Human Face said in a deep voice.

"But Myriad Immortals Island now seems to allow entry but no exit, and even communications have been cut off. It's truly a bit difficult to ascertain the situation inside..." Li Fan said with a troubled expression, furrowing his brow slightly.

Suddenly, he seemed to recall something, his expression brightening as he said, "Boss, I have a rough idea."

"Oh? Tell me."

"Do you remember He Zhenghao, who sold us the entrance exam questions for the Myriad Immortals Alliance last time? Perhaps he has a way!"

"He Zhenghao..." The Human Face mused for a moment and nodded slightly.

"You can try contacting him first. I will also think of other ways."

"If you get any information, contact me again."

"If he can't do anything either, then you should lie low again," the Human Face said to Li Fan.

"Understood." As the light on the broken stone vanished, Li Fan quickly left the place.

After visiting Liuli Island and having a cup of tea with He Zhenghao, Li Fan quickly returned.

"Boss, we've got a lead!"

"What?" The Human Face hadn't expected "Zhou Qing'ang" to be so efficient, much less that He Zhenghao would actually have news from the sealed-off Myriad Immortals Island.

"What did he say?" the Human Face asked in a deep voice.

"A flat price: ten million contribution points!" Li Fan said quietly after a moment of hesitation.
