Chapter 96 - 96: 91: Desire to Refine a Clone

Translator: 549690339

Upon returning to the Ten Thousand Immortals Island via the teleportation array, Li Fan heard that the news of the reappearance of the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters had spread far and wide.

‘Quick read! The sinister sect sealed for thousands of years reappears among mortals,’ ‘My gentle senior brother almost did something inappropriate in the middle of the night …’, ‘Top secret intelligence, 10 contribution points each, no deception to the young or old’

At first, it was Jiao Xiuyuan who sold information related only to the first trial of the Qin Hall.

Despite being first-hand information, it was sold at a high price of 30 contribution points each.

Jiao Xiuyuan made quite a profit from this.

However, as more survivors continued to return from the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters, information regarding the mysterious sect ruins gradually became abundant.

As a result, the prices plummeted.

Of course, the number of people in the first batch of explorers was limited, so the information currently circulating in the market only includes the Statues of Qin Hall and their strange surroundings.

For deeper parts of the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters, such as the

Demonic Refinement Tower, the Taiyi Hall, and other areas, the information is still a blank slate.

Li Fan shook his head, returned to the Tianxuan Mirror, and began to take an inventory of his harvest.

The “Cloud-water Illusionist Art” taught by the Qin Hall, the Binding Worm

Divine Ability of the Insect Sage, “The Cloud and Water Scroll.”

As well as the “The Godly Sword of Calming Seas”, Sky-Stealing and

Sun-Swapping Decision, and Day Theft and Day Exchange Order obtained from Sikong Yi.

At present, he had already practiced “The Golden Seal of the Jade Realm of a Thousand Mechanisms”, “The Mystical Art of the Nether Spirit”, “The Shadow Following Form Secret”.

The so-called ‘biting off more than one can chew’ applied to these new techniques too. It was crucial for Li Fan to choose deliberately from the array of new techniques he planned to cultivate.

The Binding Worm was an innate divine ability, requiring no practice.

As for the “Cloud-water Illusionist Art”, it could have infinite uses. It played a

significant role in Li Fan’s upcoming plans, so he had to cultivate it.

The Sky-Stealing and Sun-Swapping Decision could also be practiced, although…

Li Fan’s spirit consciousness swept over the Day Theft and Day Exchange Order in the storage ring.

The method for creating an incarnation could be attempted.

As for the technique Sikongyue developed later, which converts the essence of life into the Day Theft and Day Exchange order, there was absolutely no need to practice it.

In Li Fan’s view, Sikongyue’s life-preserving method could hardly be considered perfect.

At least, just as Li Fan had done, trapping all his clones and avatars, and continuously killing them.

The so-called ‘revival’ was merely a joke.

In this world, when it comes to preserving life, what could be stronger than his “True Reversal”?

There was absolutely no need to chase the shadows and lose the substance.

Moreover…

Looking at the slightly eerie token that seemed like a living creature, a premonition flashed vaguely in Li Fan’s mind.

“Stealing the sky and changing the day. Who exactly is changing who, I’m afraid it’s not easy to say.”

“No need to take this risk. Just leave it for the time being, and wait for an opportunity to verify it in the future.”

“The Godly Sword of Calming Seas”, can be cultivated all the way to the Golden Core Realm. When mastered, it can condense one hundred and eight Ocean

Command Swords in the Dantian.”

“It can be used against individuals by releasing a hundred swords at once, or against groups by forming the Ocean Command Sword Array. It’s an unmatched killing technique.”

“It’s potent but doesn’t need to be cultivated urgently.”

“I have now settled for 12 years. In my previous life, the Crimson Blaze Ocean occurred 31 years after I settled. Before, I was a bit hesitant about whether to participate in this major event. Now, with some opportunities coming my way, even if my main body escapes to a distant continent, it’s not impossible for me to stir up some waves in the sea of clouds, by using the avatar and the Mistwater Mirage Technique.”

At that moment, various strategies flashed through Li Fan’s mind. After a long while, he put them aside for now.

He took out the small seven-colour model from the storage ring and carefully examined it.

“If it weren’t for the fact that I personally took this from Taiyi’s hand, I’m afraid I wouldn’t believe that this is the legendary ‘Cloud and Water

Scroll’. “After studying it for a while and still not discovering anything secret, Li Fan couldn’t help but sigh.

“Perhaps there really is a secret hidden inside. But if it can’t be unlocked, it’s no different from garbage when held in hand. It’s best to exchange it for a hundred thousand contribution points.”

“However, if I hand it in now, it would draw too much attention. I need to refine my clone first.”

Li Fan checked his current contribution points.

To deal with Sikong Yi before, he had almost exhausted all his contribution points.

Only more than five hundred points were left.

Fortunately, most of the materials for refining a clone were not too expensive.

Ultra-high Bone, Heavenly Spirit Milk, Broken Bone Treasure Tendon…

Li Fan bought them one by one.

Finally, when only 135 contribution points were left, Li Fan had bought all the materials except for the last one, Heavenly Crystal Spirit Sand.

As for this Heavenly Crystal Spirit Sand, according to Sikong Yi’s memory, it could be collected somewhere in Misthaven Ocean.

Then Li Fan entered the auxiliary cultivation mode and began to practice “The Secret of Swapping Day and Night”.

This “The Secret of Swapping Day and Night” was somewhat similar to the “Thousand Machine Jade Gold Token” that Li Fan mainly practiced.

“Thousand Machine Jade Gold Token” cultivated Qi Mechanisms, while “The Secret of Swapping Day and Night” stole Life Numbers.

Whether it was Qi Mechanisms or Life Numbers, both were profound and hard to perceive, yet truly existed.

With the bonus of Enlightenment, it took Li Fan three days to practice it to the Mid Stage of Energy Refining.

And his contribution points were reduced to a pitiful 35 points.

Anyway, with the Mid Stage of Energy Refining of “The Secret of Swapping Day

and Night”, he could refine a clone, so Li Fan decided to stop practicing.

With the materials, Li Fan left Ten Thousand Immortals Island through the teleportation array and arrived at Spiritual Rhythm Island in the western sea area of Misthaven Ocean.

The place where the Heavenly Crystal Spirit Sand was located was not far from Spiritual Rhythm Island.

After greeting the guard of Spiritual Rhythm Island, Li Fan activated the Invisible Talisman and flew to the location in his memory.

After several days, he stopped on a sea surface full of whirlpools of different sizes, and then dived to the bottom of the sea.

The seawater here was shallow, only about three to four hundred meters deep, and he reached the bottom.

There were collapsed building ruins everywhere; it should be an ancient ruin site.

The scale of the ruins was quite large, faintly revealing its past prosperity.

But it was unknown why it had sunk to the bottom of the sea.

Such ruins were found all over in Misthaven Ocean, and Li Fan didn’t find it strange.

After all, when Li Fan first came to Misthaven Ocean, he had heard about the wind disaster that ravaged the area, causing hundreds of islands to sink.

Arriving at a fallen square boulder, Li Fan entered through a crevice in the stone.

The inside was like a dark cave, but there were hundreds of glowing jellyfish wandering around, like moving stars.

The ground of the cave was covered with a layer of fine, shining sand.

In the center of the cave, a huge stone was hollowed out, serving as a home for the jellyfish.

The glowing sand on the ground was naturally Heavenly Crystal Spirit Sand.

Li Fan collected the Heavenly Crystal Spirit Sand from the ground, looked at the huge stone, and couldn’t help but marvel at the wonders of creation.

This place was also a location that Sikong Yi had discovered by chance.

The giant stone in the center was just an ordinary Heavenly Spirit Ore.

But after being devoured and digested by these unidentified jellyfish, it had turned into the precious material, Heavenly Crystal Spirit Sand.

It was truly incredible.

If you know, this Heavenly Crystal Spirit Sand, even for Foundation Formation Artifact Refiners, it takes quite some time to refine..
