It felt as if he’d drunk a bowl of icy water in the heat of summer, Li Fan felt invigorated, both physically and mentally.
His divine soul was growing stronger at a discernible rate.
“It really works!”
“The Xuan Huang Heart-Refining spell, combined with The Sensing of Life and Death Chapter, indeed has miraculous effects!”
His speculation was proven, Li Fan was delighted.
“With this, the strengthening speed of my divine soul will likely reach a terrifying level.”
Just when Li Fan wanted double down and retry The Sensing of Life death Chapter.
The result was different from what he expected.
Perhaps it was due to being jolted in fear just before. He had adapted mentally.
This time even though the Celestial Doctor’s face nearly brushed against Li Fan’s, there was no fear in his heart whatsoever.
Even occasional thoughts like “Never mind, let it be. Kill me, hurry up.” flashed in his spirit consciousness.
“If the heart does not fear, how can it be terrified by death?”
Li Fan seemed to understand something, shook his head, and stopped his cultivation.
“No wonder Zhong Shentong chose to end his life. It seems that indeed, the influence of the Life and Death Mysterious Skill is to blame.”
“But while it does have drawbacks, it would be a pity if I gave up the method combining Heart-Refining Spell with it.”
“After all, completing a full Reverse Cultivation Dao Heart is quite challenging.”
“With the help of The Sensing of Life and Death Chapter, the feedback is almost immediate.”
“Besides, I can combine them and use them simultaneously.”
“After the adaptation period, let’s try cultivating again to see how effective it is.”
“In my next life, I may be able to complete the ‘Mystical Skill of Life and Death’ using Yan Fajue.”
To him, the drawbacks of techniques were not a problem.
As long as there was something to gain, he could utilize it.
Perhaps, when he collected enough techniques, he could derive, using Yan Fajue, the Heavenly Net Divine Technique that truly belonged to him.
The sudden visit by Zhong Shentong led to Master Li, who was often lauded for his diligence, taking a rare few days of closed-door rest.
The cultivators on Ship Jiaxu had no objections.
They’d rather have Li Fan rest more.
If Li Fan truly dropped dead from overwork, they would probably be met with finger-pointing for the rest of their lives.
However, the cultivators’ hopes were doomed.
As soon as Li Fan stepped out of his secluded cultivation room, he immediately resumed his work on constructing the Tianxuan Spirit Locking Array.
And once he started, he didn’t stop, even for a moment.
When the structure of the outer Array locked in and merged with those of Xue Mu and the other Array Masters,
Li Fan volunteered to focus his attention and begin building the internal Array leading to the central position.
This desperate spirit left Xue Mu and others feeling shamed.
They had no choice but to follow his example and perform their duties relentlessly.
Time passed, and they reached Year 35 of the anchoring.
On this day, Li Fan, engrossed in building the Array unit, his hand shook, and surprisingly, the rare event of his formation failing had taken place.
The cultivators guarding him nearby looked at Li Fan in surprise.
This was something that had never happened ever since they began following Li Fan.
Li Fan was renowned for his efficiency and precision in positioning any Array. He ranked in the top ten in the Grand Competition Gold List.
Many Array Masters even traveled across lands to watch him work and left shouting praises.
Could it be that due to years of fatigue, his body was giving up finally?
The people looked at each other with worry.
However, a moment later, seeing the surges of spiritual energy emitting from Li Fan, they were delighted.
“Master Li, has your cultivation increased further?” He Chen couldn’t help but ask.
Li Fan, while calming the sudden, incessant feedback of his cultivation, nodded slightly.
Upon seeing Li Fan admit it in person, He Chen and the others looked inexplicably bewildered.
Tasked with arduous labor in such harsh conditions, they had barely practiced Cultivation for several years.
Their lifespans were nearing their end as well.
Despite the accumulation of countless adverse circumstances, Master Li surprisingly managed to make a breakthrough?
This completely overturned their understanding.
Could it be the legendary saying holds true? Good people are favored by the heavens?
Li Fan, however, did not have the luxury to care about the thoughts of the Cultivators around him.
He was trying to check on Su Xiaomei and Zhang Haobo’s status through the Formless Killing Machine method
It was from them that he received a substantial burst of advancement in his cultivation progress, and they had disappeared in the Ruin of Chaoyuan Sect for almost ten years.
“In the past decade, they seemed to have completely vanished from this world. There hasn’t been a single shred of feedback.”
“Upon reappearing after ten years, they gave me a big surprise.”
This was Li Fan’s biggest return on investment since he began practicing “The Mountain-Seating Secret”.
Far exceeding the feedback limit that a Golden Core Cultivator could bring.
Li Fan speculated that Su Xiaomei and Zhang Haobo might have already stepped into the Nascent Soul Realm.
“Interesting. Even with their talent, it seemed rather exaggerated for them to cultivate to the Nascent Soul Transformation Realm from the Perfect Stage Foundation Establishment within ten years.”
“Moreover, where did their Techniques and Magical Treasures come from?”
“It seems that they have indeed gained a lot in the Chaoyuan Sect.”
Perhaps it was because he was deep in the midst of the White Mist, far away from Jiushan Province.
Even with the Communication and Astonishing Gods Array that he had initially left them, he couldn’t sense their situation instantly.
Instead, the long-abandoned Vanguard Realm of Bones was greeted by a long-awaited visitor.
As the owner of the Vanguard Realm of Bones, Li Fan felt it.
He signaled everyone to rest for a while, returned to the Jiaxu outpost, entered the secret room, and performed a ritual.
By the time he entered, there were no traces of the visitor in the Vanguard Realm
However, judging by the residual Qi, it appeared that the visitor was undoubtedly Su Xiaomei.
As Li Fan looked around, he quickly noticed a pile of oddly shaped objects placed in the resting place of the “Skull” predecessor he had set.
Recalling a past instruction, his heart skipped a beat.
He flew forward, took one of them, and examined it carefully.
“A rechargeable item has been found, do you want to absorb it?”
As the prompt jumped out timely, Li Fan made his choice and the anchoring charge progress slightly flickered.
In the end, nothing changed.
“Natural Treasure?”
Li Fan stared at the tattered “garbage” in front of him, his expression strange.
“These are damaged Natural Treasures that have been extracted from the bodies of deceased Cultivators.”
As for the quantity…
Li Fan counted quietly and felt a chill down his spine.
Three thousand seven hundred sixty-two pieces.
Without a doubt, these were all the treasures Su Xiaomei obtained from the Ruin of the Chaoyuan Sect.
Li Fan picked up another piece and carefully examined it.
Unlike the long-existing historical relics, it seemed as if it had just been taken out of a dead Cultivator’s body, even emanating a strong smell of blood.
“Techniques, Magical Treasures, and all these Natural Treasures.”
“What on earth did Shuo Feng and Su Xiaomei encounter in the Ruin of the Chaoyuan Sect?”
Despite having countless doubts in his heart, Li Fan didn’t delay his action to absorb the Natural Treasures.
After consecutively absorbing thirteen treasures, the anchoring charge progress finally fluctuated.
It changed from 2% to 3%.
