Chapter 245: Unexpected Conflict
🕑 Added 2024-01-15 14:57:55 +0000 UTC"Heavenly Calamity law, Hanhai law."
"If I continue to refine like this, it probably won't be long before I can achieve Golden Core with these two laws."
Li Fan felt a slight joy in his heart.
However, just at the moment when this thought arose in his mind, a sense of crisis suddenly surged into his heart.
It was as if he was facing that mysterious and unpredictable Heavenly Doctor.
The severity of the crisis made him feel horrified and inexplicably shocked.
"Hmm?"
Li Fan's deep cultivation process was suddenly interrupted.
His expression became extremely serious, pondering in confusion.
"Where is this premonition of danger coming from?"
Li Fan was always very confident in his intuition.
Several times before, it had saved him from life-threatening situations.
Therefore, facing this sudden surge of danger, Li Fan had to take it seriously.
[Truth] kept changing, maintaining the embryonic form of the Heavenly Calamity and Hanhai laws that he had finally condensed.
Stopping the core formation process, Li Fan began to contemplate.
However, after much contemplation and searching, he still couldn't find the reason.
Without recklessly attempting to form the core, Li Fan instead thought about ways to resolve the issue.
"Heavenly Calamity, Hanhai, it may be that I cannot form a core only with these two laws."
"Although it's not clear why, there must be a deeper reason behind it."
"Let's just set aside why this result occurred for now and treat 'Cannot form a core only with the Heavenly Calamity and Hanhai laws' as a fact."
"Since these two don't work, then let's add a third..."
The Azure Flame Illusionary Spirit suddenly appeared in his sea of consciousness.
Flying to Li Fan's side, it pointed at his dantian.
The Azure Flame law slowly joined the core formation process.
As time passed, the Heavenly Calamity, Hanhai, and Azure Flame laws gradually formed a three-pronged situation.
The embryonic form of the Golden Core slowly stabilized.
At this point, Li Fan once again had the idea of completely forming the core.
The sense of crisis struck again.
However, this time it was much milder than before.
"It seems that my approach is effective."
"But what is the reason for this?"
"Is it because the Heavenly Calamity and Hanhai laws are dangerous and need to be diluted?"
Recalling how the Heavenly Calamity was trapped by the Green Wind and the peculiarities of Hanhai, Li Fan could only make such a guess.
"If my speculation is correct, then as long as I add other laws during the core formation process, it should be fine."
"With my current ability, maintaining the simultaneous formation of four laws is already the limit."
"The remaining choice for one law includes..."
"Green Wind, Crimson Flame..."
Li Fan shook his head inwardly.
Of these two, one was a jailor, and the other was an executioner.
In terms of strength and rank, Li Fan felt that they were not on the same level as the Heavenly Calamity and Hanhai laws.
As for the Azure Flame, although it seemed a bit weaker, its ability to maintain absolute rationality was the reason Li Fan prioritized it.
"16 years have already passed."
"This life, Crimson Flame and Ink Death are expected to annihilate everything by the 28th year."
"I still have 12 years, so I can take my time."
Li Fan pondered, resisting the temptation to advance, temporarily giving up on forming the core.
The power of the laws that had been condensed with great difficulty in his dantian gradually dissipated.
However, Li Fan had no regrets.
The terrifying power of Ink Death's annihilation was something no cultivator could resist.
Even if it was just a weakened version at the Golden Core level, it must still be terrifying.
For the sake of this, waiting for 12 years was completely worth it.
"The day when the Ink Death annihilates the Cong Yun Sea is the day I achieve Golden Core."
"However, during this time, my cultivation cannot advance."
"The feedback cultivation of the Mountain Meditation Technique is going to be wasted."
"Su Xiaomei, Zhang Haobo, and the others breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage is basically a sure thing."
"After that, there might be a huge amount of feedback from Ye Feipeng if he reaches Dao Integration..."
"Hmm..."
Li Fan suddenly felt a pang of pain, as if countless grains were being wasted before his eyes.
"I have to figure out a way to save this surplus cultivation."
Just as he was about to search for a solution in the Tianxuan Mirror, a solemn message suddenly appeared.
"From this instant, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance enters Level B preparedness."
"All province guardian arrays are to be activated."
"All cultivators are forbidden from moving across provinces."
"All institutional members must return to the province capital as soon as possible and await further instructions."
"Upon discovering foreign cultivators, execute on the spot."
...
Li Fan's eyes twitched, and he abruptly stood up.
"What's going on?"
"Why did we suddenly enter a state of preparedness?"
"Level B..."
"Has the conflict with the Five Elders Association already started?"
In an instant, several thoughts flashed through Li Fan's mind.
This sudden event was completely beyond his expectations.
He didn't know what went wrong, leading to the occurrence of a major event that had never happened before.
Quickly suppressing these distracting thoughts, Li Fan began to inquire from his friends.
Currently, he had a wide range of friendships, and his network was quite extensive.
One by one, he sent out inquiries.
"Hmm? What's happening with this star..."
Inside the Ten Thousand Immortals Communication Talisman, among the stars that represented the identities of many cultivators, one star, although bright, showed a desolate gray color.
This indicated that the cultivator represented by this star had fallen.
Li Fan clicked on this star, and the identity of the fallen cultivator instantly appeared in his mind.
"Cong Yun Sea, Medicine Hall's Chen Ying."
Li Fan was shocked.
"Him? How could a Nascent Soul cultivator fall so easily?"
"Moreover, didn't he go to those Five Element Subworlds..."
"Wait a minute, could it be that this battle is related to those Five Element Subworlds?"
In an instant, Li Fan seemed to think of something.
In the twelfth life, in the sixteenth year, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance discovered four hidden subworlds near the wood attribute subworld.
These five subworlds belonged to the gold, wood, water, fire, and earth attributes, and were arranged as if in a unified formation.
The discovery of these five elemental subworlds attracted the coveting eyes of the Five Elders Association.
A large-scale battle erupted, leading to the fall of a Soul Transformation powerhouse from the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
The casualties of the Five Elders were unknown, but they were successfully repelled.
"If my guess is correct..."
In a flash, Li Fan seemed to figure out the cause of the incident.
In the twelfth life, the Five Elders Association only knew that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance had discovered subworlds corresponding to the five elements.
They might not be clear about the specific situation inside those subworlds.
Therefore, after trying and failing to enter, they gave up and retreated.
However, in this life, due to the disturbance caused by the Spirit Mist Grass, the Tianxuan Mirror had to intervene to stabilize the situation and market.
Although it quelled the storm with a single word, it inadvertently revealed the situation of the wood attribute subworld.
"...The scale of this subworld is extremely large, with extremely high wood attribute spiritual energy, and an extremely rich variety of spiritual plants and herbs..."
Recalling the wording of the Tianxuan Mirror at the time, Li Fan's face changed dramatically.
The three consecutive uses of the word "extreme" fully illustrated the extraordinary value of this subworld.
Even one of the Five Element Subworlds had such remarkable value.
It was unimaginable what treasures might exist in the other four elemental subworlds.
Understanding the key points, Li Fan couldn't help but feel enlightened.
"No wonder we suddenly entered a state of preparedness."
"It should be the Five Elders Association taking decisive action."
