Chapter 167: Ice Intent Heartless Pill
🕑 Added 2023-11-21 16:18:06 +0000 UTC"Well, I'm really looking forward to it." Li Fan looked at He Zhenghao, full of confidence, and said with a smile.
He Zhenghao boasted about his past achievements again, bragging about doubling his contribution points in ten years, making a big profit equivalent to several years of hard work, and so on. After Li Fan signaled with his eyes, he finally stopped, still not completely satisfied.
The promotion message from the Tianxuan Mirror sounded timely.
"Cultivator Li Fan, welcome to the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance. As a benefit, we will give you 1000 contribution points for free. You can use contribution points to exchange for spiritual stones, cultivation techniques, magical treasures, and more."
"You have received 1500 contribution points from He Zhenghao."
"Current total contribution points: 2500."
...
Although Li Fan started this life with 2500 contribution points, for someone who once had a wealth of over a million, it was challenging to evoke any psychological fluctuations. Especially in the late stage of Foundation Establishment, the daily activation of the Tianxuan Mirror already cost 300 contribution points.
Li Fan now realized that these 300 contribution points were roughly what an ordinary late Foundation Establishment cultivator could earn in nearly a month of doing low-risk tasks most of the time. After spending one day on assisted cultivation, it would be back to running errands in an endless loop.
Add to that occasionally getting lucky with high-reward, low-risk tasks, after a year, only a small amount of contribution points could be accumulated.
This was the typical fate of ordinary cultivators in Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
If there were regrets and one wanted to take a risk, there would naturally be the possibility of death.
As someone who regressed, Li Fan would naturally not fall into the same fate.
Repeating the same trick, he bought a storage ring, went out, and returned to exchange the gold and silver treasures and the remains of the "Stone Tablet of Prohibition" in the Tai Yan Boat.
He received 2831 contribution points.
Still too little!
Li Fan remembered that in about half a year, the dragonwhale that had swallowed many Liuli Pearls and gained wisdom would destroy the island where Spirit Mist Grass was found. Greenwood Rebirth True Immortal also took advantage of this to set up a big harvest.
Li Fan didn't want to miss such a feast and naturally wanted to accumulate enough contribution points before participating.
Li Fan looked again at the task to collect Blue Blood Coral that he had taken before.
Without hesitation, he directly accepted the task.
Then he went directly through the teleportation array to Mist Crow Island in the northwest of the Cong Yun Sea.
The Mist Crow Island was guarded by a Foundation Establishment cultivator whose hunched body was hidden in a black robe, and his face was unseen.
An eerie aura radiated from his body, repelling anyone thousands of miles away invisibly.
Li Fan just nodded at him slightly as a sign and then left directly.
Once out of the island protection formation, Li Fan looked up.
The island was shrouded in a gray mist throughout the day.
Within the gray mist, faint silhouettes of flocks of birds could be vaguely seen.
Approaching the edge of the mist, Li Fan controlled his spiritual power and captured one of the birds for closer inspection.
"Croak! Croak!"
This bird was naturally the so-called Mist Crow.
It had no physical form, entirely composed of the gray mist.
The Mist Crow struggled, flapping its wings ceaselessly, attempting to peck Li Fan with its large and curved beak.
Upon contact between spiritual energy and the mist, a faint burning sensation surprisingly occurred, leaving Li Fan somewhat astonished.
"It seems that the Mist Crow has some utility, but only the members of the Hall of Heavenly Secrets are aware of it."
After studying it for a while, Li Fan didn't reach any conclusions and released the Mist Crow.
Then, he proceeded with his main task, flying towards the west of Mist Crow Island.
After flying for more than two hundred miles, Li Fan suppressed his aura and submerged into the sea."
In the vast underwater ruins stretching for dozens of miles, a large Blue Blood Coral grew prominently.
Transparent and emitting a faint ethereal light, the coral was surrounded by various underwater creatures that had established their homes around it. A sea snake with strength equivalent to the mid Foundation Establishment stage lurked in the vicinity, acting as a guardian.
This serene and beautiful scene was abruptly disrupted by Li Fan's arrival.
Activating the Insect Binding Technique, while [Truth] also transformed into the Canghai Pearl.
With a slash from the Cong Yun Sea Sword, the sea snake instantly lost its life.
"Huh? After the Foundation Establishment treasure transformed into the Canghai Pearl, the power of the technique seems to have been enhanced somewhat within this Cong Yun Sea?" Li Fan keenly noticed the difference as he carefully sensed the surroundings.
"This feeling... is it an inexplicable sense of kinship emitted by the Cong Yun Sea?"
"Is it treating the Canghai Pearl as a brother?"
Li Fan chuckled and paid no attention, focusing his gaze on the Blue Blood Coral.
With a loud rumble, the Blue Blood Coral was uprooted and stored in Li Fan's storage ring.
Countless underwater habitats were destroyed, and the creatures scattered in panic, fleeing for their lives.
Li Fan showed no signs of remorse for acting as a harbinger of destruction.
"Three thousand contribution points are in hand now."
Li Fan recalled that Elder Chen from the Medicine Hall had always been interested in purchasing this Blue Blood Coral.
So, carefully recollecting, he identified another location within the Cong Yun Sea where this coral existed.
"Well, it seems not far from here, in an underwater deep valley, there is another one."
"Let's take it while we're at it."
So, with little effort, Li Fan dug out another Blue Blood Coral.
Returning to the Tianxuan Mirror, he chose to submit it.
After the other party received the two corals, the task reward was quickly settled.
Six thousand contribution points were instantly obtained.
"I wonder what pill is Elder Chen refining with this Blue Blood Coral?"
Li Fan casually asked.
After a while, perhaps for the sake of the two Blue Blood Corals, the reply came.
"Ice Intent Heartless Pill, for the purpose of exploring a secret realm. If you find this kind of coral in the future, you can trade them to me. I'll buy as many as you can find."
...
"Ice Intent Heartless Pill." Li Fan savored the name of this pill, pondering.
With the task completed, Li Fan's contribution points now exceeded ten thousand.
It had only been three days since he joined Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance at this point.
The speed of contribution point growth was truly astonishing.
Li Fan then looked at the most eye-catching bounty task.
"One hundred thousand contribution points for the Cloud Water Map, this opportunity can't be missed in this life."
"But the so-called Heavenly Doctor is a bit strange."
"Judging from his strength, he's at least an Dao Integration Immortal Sage."
The scene of the black-robed Dao Integration Immortal Sage from Yuandao Province freezing Li Fan's thoughts was still vivid in his mind.
Naturally, Li Fan wouldn't choose to face the Heavenly Doctor directly.
"It seems that I need to refine a clone."
Having gathered all the materials for refining the clone, he went to the seabed again and obtained the Heaven Crystal Spirit Sand.
Then he headed straight to the cave where Sikong Yi was hiding.
Sikong Yi and his clone, Baili Chen, had unpredictable whereabouts. If Li Fan used the Sun Stealing Technique, he was afraid they would sense it and escape through a teleportation formation.
Chasing them afterward would be troublesome.
It was better to wait here and catch them off guard.
