Chapter 414: Chapter 390: Disappearance after Ten Years

Translator: 549690339

“So many years have passed; if I’m not mistaken, the Medicine King Cauldron in the Deep Abyss of Cangwu should have reappeared.”

“I hope that Su Xiaomei and the others can hold onto the four small cauldrons, allowing me to glimpse the mysteries of the Medicine King Cauldron.”

Before leaving the Debating Tower Courtyard, Li Fan took another look at the Tianxuan Mirror.

First, he looked at the ranking of the Grand Competition Gold List.

He was still unshakably ranked second.

After more than two years of frantic scoring in the Five Elements Cave Heaven, he had already opened quite a gap with the third place.

If nothing significant happens next, this ranking is likely to remain till the end.

As for the top-ranked Guo Yezhong, due to his unparalleled, unique score deduction, he was far ahead of Li Fan.

At present, it seems there is no hope of surpassing him.

Li Fan stared attentively at Guo Yezhong’s name: “Dissociation Disc …”

“Perhaps the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals never planned to let it go in the first place.”

With a cold snort, Li Fan closed the rankings and checked the communications he had received over the years.

Due to his presence in various secret realms, the Communication Talisman could not communicate with the outside world.

Most of the messages were sent to the Tianxuan Mirror Space.

They were mostly greetings sent occasionally by He Zhenghao, Jingxuan Taoist, and others, nothing of importance.

Li Fan quickly skimmed through them.

Finally, he checked his merit level.

“Level Thirty-One.”

Upon seeing this number, Li Fan’s heart jumped involuntarily.

“The grand plan of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals is indeed impressive. I just participated in the construction of three Great Arrays, and my merit level skyrocketed to thirty-one.”

“If one were to earn merit at the usual leisurely pace, a cultivator at the Golden Core Cultivation Level might not achieve this level in a lifetime.”

Participation in the construction of the Tianxuan Soul Locking Array is rewarded with merits.

Moreover, upon completing each Array Technique, the rewards would be settled in real-time.

This was clearly explained by Ji Hongdao when he was motivating us beforehand.

Upon reaching Merit Level Thirty-One, new privileges were unlocked.

First were some small benefits.

One can apply for free visits to some famous sites of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, like the God Hidden Museum that was seen before.

Furthermore, one can apply for job transfers across regions at the same level.

If He Zhenghao had such privileges back then, he wouldn’t have needed the help of Oracle Son and Jingxuan Taoist. He could directly go to Tianyu Province.

Aside from this, what Li Fan paid more attention to was the unlocking of some taboo information.

Many pieces of information, which previously could not be searched for, could now be viewed in the Tianxuan Mirror.

For example, information about the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals’ recruitment exam, which is held once every ten years.

Li Fan’s eyes shimmered as he noted down the topics for the exam in nine years.

While Li Fan was eagerly browsing through all sorts of information, two days quickly went by.

On the last day of rest, Li Fan received messages from Gu Youguang and Xiang Liu.

They had looked around and couldn’t find Li Fan in the Thousand Stars Courtyard.

They were somewhat worried, so they sent messages to inquire.

After Li Fan assured them that he was fine, he returned to the celebration site at the last moment.

The Thousand Stars Courtyard was brightly lit. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

People were coming and going, and it was quite lively.

“I was a little tired, so I went to rest for a while. I hope you’ll understand,” Li Fan said with a smile.

Xiang Liu and the others were all nodding their heads, a clear sign of understanding.

“It’s quite a pity though,” Gu Youguang said, shaking his head.

“Oh? What do you mean?” asked Li Fan.

Xiang Liu continued: “My friend, perhaps you are not aware. Yesterday, the widely renowned Fairy of the Ethereal Abyss from the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals came to pay us a visit.”

“It’s such a pity that you missed the chance to see her. She’s stunning!”

Gu Youguang agreed animatedly: “Indeed, the Fairy of the Ethereal Abyss is peerlessly beautiful, extremely rare. The beauty I captured with my Shadow Stone cannot capture even one ten thousandth of her charm. Her beauty is beyond any description. Only by seeing her with your own eyes can you truly understand that her reputation is not undeserved.”

Li Fan thought it was something serious, but it turned out to be just about a woman.

He laughed dismissively: “Why would an old man on his deathbed care about this?”

Gu Youguang suddenly became serious and lowered his voice: “If you had a chance to personally experience her charm, there might be an opportunity to alter your fate.”

“The Fairy of the Ethereal Abyss… she has a special constitution…”

“Well, you know.”

Li Fan just shook his head with a smile.

Xiang Liu felt like this topic was a bit inappropriate, so he quickly changed the subject: “What are your plans next, my friend?”

“Elder Qi has already made public the current overall progress of the Spirit-locking Formation construction within the territory of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals. Any cultivator who participated in the construction of the Five Elements Great Cave Heaven can freely choose their next target.”

With that, he took a crystal-like Jade Scroll from his Storage Ring and handed it over.

After taking a look, Li Fan was a little surprised.

“The construction progressed so quickly.”

Compared to what he had seen more than two years ago from Huang Fusong.

The Spirit-locking Formation construction tasks that he could now see were almost entirely completed.

The overall progress was close to 95%.

“It’s all due to those opposing voices causing a stir,” Gu Youguang shrugged.

“Recently, the wave of opposition to the Tianxuan Soul Locking Array has become increasingly fierce. There have even been instances of violent resistance to construction in some places. Although they were immediately suppressed, it demonstrates the danger of the situation.”

“In order to avoid further complications, everyone was working non-stop round the clock these days.”

Xiang Liu also sighed: “I don’t understand why there would be such strong opposition.”

“If they saw how the Spirit-locking Formation performed in the Five Elements Cave Heaven, they would definitely change their minds,” Gu Youguang said earnestly. “It’s a pity that Elder Qi has already stated that this is top secret information, not to be disclosed. Otherwise, I would have to explain it to them.”

Li Fan appeared to nod and agree on the surface, but inwardly he scoffed: “If those opposing saw the power of the Spirit-locking Formation with their own eyes, they’d probably spare no effort in stopping it.”

“No worries. The day the Tianxuan Spirit Locking becomes widespread, all criticism will self-destruct,” Qi Buyi’s voice suddenly came from beside the three.

Li Fan and the others were startled and hurriedly paid their respects.

Qi Buyi waved it off, her face slightly flushed, seemingly due to drinking quite a bit of spiritual wine.

She spoke to Li Fan: “You can also rest assured; the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals will never treat its merit-earning members unfairly. Your life-extension matter has been approved and soon, a treasure will be sent to you. If all goes well, the extra lifespan will be enough to sustain you until you break through to the Nascent Soul.”

Upon hearing this, Xiang Liu and Gu Youguang were both thrilled.

Li Fan also showed a grateful expression and thanked Qi Buyi.

While they were talking, a beam of sunlight shone into the Thousand Stars Courtyard.

“Ah, dawn has broken.”

“Just as this dark night is about to end.”

“Under the Tianxuan Spirit Locking, the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals will surely usher in a future of unprecedented brightness.”

Qi Buyi’s gaze was blurred but incredibly resolute.

Li Fan and the others looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

At that moment, an influx of information spontaneously materialized in Li Fan’s spirit consciousness.

This was the knowledge gathered by that inexplicably vanished clone.

“The Yuandao State, the missing ten years …”

In an instant, Li Fan’s expression changed.
