Zhang Haobo opened his eyes, and the free-roaming Sword Intent swiftly returned to his Dantian.
As the sharp intent in his eyes gradually dissipated, he became unremarkable and harmless.
Li Fan watched Zhang Haobo’s transformation and couldn’t help but admire it.
To be able to retract his aura and return to simplicity during the Foundation Establishment Phase was quite remarkable.
Indeed, it was extraordinary.
After lingering at the bottom of the sea for a while, getting familiar with his new power from breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Phase, Zhang Haobo immediately flew to the sea surface.
He didn’t waste a moment— he began to cultivate the Ocean Command Technique right away.
One after another, the blue Water Swords appeared and danced in the air.
Under Zhang Haobo’s control, the blue light crisscrossed while water dragons whizzed around.
Li Fan, who observed from the dark, noticed a sharp change.
After using the indescribable Sword Intent to build his Tao Foundation, the sword moves in his Ocean Command Technique had also changed significantly.
If previously the Ocean Command Technique gave an impression of grandeur and righteousness,
Now, under the influence of the mysterious Sword Intent, the grand sword intent also concealed a wild and fierce killing intent.
Even Li Fan sensed something.
Zhang Haobo was still holding back.
A violent, malicious energy remains unexercised.
If this malice, originating from the black sword hilt, were released, the might of the Ocean Command Technique would likely multiply in an instant.
On the deserted sea surface, Zhang Haobo persistently practiced the Ocean Command Technique without showing any signs of fatigue.
Day in and day out, regardless of wind and rain.
Pins of blue light gathered from all over the ocean. Here in the Misthaven Ocean, which is almost like his home ground, Zhang Haobo didn’t have to worry about the consumption of spiritual energy. He could invoke the technique freely without fear of depleting his power.
In this way, although his realm was still in the early stage of Foundation Establishment, his actual combat strength was advancing rapidly.
The most obvious external sign was the number of Water Swords Zhang Haobo could conjure, which rapidly increased.
Thirty-six to seventy-two to one hundred and eight!
In just over a month, Zhang Haobo, who had just stepped into the Foundation
Establishment Phase, had mastered “The Godly Sword of Calming Seas!”
Even though there were some external factors involved,
One cannot deny the terrifying natural talent Zhang Haobo possessed.
The deployment of one hundred and eight Ocean Command Swords resonated with the melody of water dragons filling the sky.
As far as Li Fan was concerned, this momentum already surpassed Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi, who were in the final stage of Foundation Establishment.
Keep in mind—Zhang Haobo had not yet used any Foundation Establishment Strange Objects.
Seeing Zhang Haobo’s rapid progress, Li Fan involuntarily looked forward to what was ahead.
“What are you going to do next? ‘The Godly Sword of Calming Seas’ I gave you only goes up to the Foundation Establishment Phase.” “Could you possibly derive the Golden Core Phase on your own?”
Li Fan was skeptical.
In the Immortal Cultivation World, self-invented techniques are possible, But this requires more than just outstanding natural talent.
You also need a profound understanding of various techniques. Only with that could one push out the old and bring in the new, deriving new cultivation techniques
Suffice to say, only a grandmaster can achieve it.
In the Immortal cultivation world, these cultivators capable of establishing new techniques are given the esteemed title of Technique Creation Masters.
The status of Technique Creation Masters is extremely noble, far above those of Refining Tool Masters, Alchemists, Talisman Masters, and masters of Array Technique.
In any organization, they are undoubtedly in critical positions and deeply respected.
Even some supreme Technique Creation grandmasters who excel in crafting techniques and have a profound understanding of cultivation techniques can offer “tailor-made” techniques for cultivators.
Their status is not even beneath the Unity Immortal Monarch.
As for Zhang Haobo, although his talent was indeed high, he had only ever cultivated one technique, “The Godly Sword of Calming Seas.”
There might be a slight possibility that he could successfully derive the Golden Core Era part of “The Godly Sword of Calming Seas.” But the probability was extremely small.
Li Fan expected to see what Zhang Haobo would do next.
However, right now, Zhang Haobo, who was still in the early stage of
Foundation Establishment, didn’t need to worry about his techniques.
He acted like the best teacher, practicing the various moves of “The Godly Sword of Calming Seas” in front of Li Fan, over and over again, in incredible detail.
Patiently, meticulously.
Li Fan diverted most of his attention to studying and comprehending the technique, while the rest of his attention returned to the Ten Thousand Profound Mirror.
The phrase “time flies when immersing in cultivation” proved true. During the time Li Fan and Zhang Haobo spent in cultivation, times slipped away unnoticed.
They are now in the 16th year of anchoring.
The kick-off of the Crimson Flame Sea of Conflagration drew ever closer.
Li Fan first checked the major events that had occurred over the past two years.
Due to the influence of the Immortal Sovereign, a lot of recordings were probably lost, even though only two years had passed.
But afterward, Li Fan visited cultivators like Yu Wenxing, and gradually reconstructed some events during his constant inquiries.
Li Fan returned to the Tianxuan Mirror, recording everything one by one.
Although he would likely forget them soon,
That didn’t matter.
When truth restored, he remembered them again in his next life.
Li Fan reviewed the records in his hand, some of which piqued his interest.
In the anchored 14th year, not long after he and Zhang Haobo entered enlightenment,
Something remarkable seemed to have happened in the northwest sea area of the Misthaven Ocean, near the border of Yongliang State and Jiushan Province.
The local specialty, Gilded Flying Fish, rose in price by fifty times in a short period.
This only lasted for seven days before quickly returning to normal.
All the buyers who were still alive could not remember what happened at the time or why they bought the Gilded Flying Fish.
This was the first event.
The second interesting event happened in the anchored 15th year.
A fire meteor lit up the sky and cut through the night.
No one knew where it fell.
All the cultivators who saw this meteor felt unease, horror, and sorrow in their hearts.
Some tried to find where the fire meteor fell, but it seemed that nobody could find it.
The third event happened not long ago.
The rumor Jiao Xiuyuan mentioned that there were two more spiritual energy caves near the wood-attribute spirit cave was confirmed.
However, the reality was far more exaggerated than the rumor.
Because there weren’t just two caves hidden there—there were four.
The five caves belonged to the Five Elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. They were subtly arrayed as if they were a whole.
The discovery of the Five Elements caves was simply too astonishing.
It even attracted the covetous attention from the Five Elders Organization.
The two sides had a battle near the caves, and the Immortal Alliance repelled the Five Elders Organization at the cost of a God Transformation expert’s life.
Later on, to avoid any conflict and to protect the Five Elements caves,
The Immortal Alliance paid a tremendous price to relocate them to the heartland of their strength, near Tianyu Province.
Li Fan committed this information to his memory, viewing it as an essential channel of gain for his next life..
