Chapter 461 - 433: Regaining the Rebirth Fruit

Chapter 461: Chapter 433: Regaining the Rebirth Fruit

Zhang Qianmo laughed heartily once more, finding himself growing more fond of his younger apprentice.

Of course, Li Fan admired Brother Zhang immensely, but…

He still had to follow the required process.

As he did in his past life.

He visited Mr. Bai’s basement to create the Immortal Seal Stone Needle.

Then he tricked Brother Zhang to come.

Caught him off guard, sealed his veins with the stone needle, pretending to demand the Law of Purple Elixir Nirvana.

Brother Zhang locked his gaze on Li Fan with disbelief as if to remember him forever.

Then he died by his own hand.

After dealing with Brother Zhang, others in Ningyuan City like Song Hesong, posed no real threat.

Thus, with his prior experience, Li Fan efficiently prevented the destruction of Ningyuan City, which often occurs amidst cultivator battles.

The scenery around him blurred momentarily.

Li Fan glimpsed again at Mr. Bai’s figure standing bewildered amid the blood-colored ruins.

Regrettably, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t make out his features.

In the end, the vision darkened.

Li Fan left the Fallen Immortal Realm, returning to the real world.

Assessing his gains, Li Fan felt a smidgen of regret.

“The reward for completing the [Ningyuan Life Fruit] task – three Rebirth Longevity Fruits that can prolong life by three hundred years – still exist.”

“However, after defeating Brother Zhang, there are no new methods to gain.”

However, Li Fan quickly resigned himself to it.

“Brother Zhang is still alive in the world. His techniques can be disregarded.”

“If I truly summon him here, I fear it would become more troublesome.”

Li Fan started analyzing his trip to the Fallen Immortal Realm.

“At present, it seems that following my ‘Even True’ rebirth, the Fallen Immortal Realm cannot detect my past life experiences.”

“But one thing is certain, my existence in the Fallen Immortal Realm is extraordinary.”

“It appears as though some guidance leads me through preset events.”

“First was the [Ningyuan Life Fruit], next should be the ‘Transformation of the Beast Driving Sect’.”

“Interesting…”

Li Fan had no idea what led to this peculiar situation.

However, since the Fallen Immortal Realm has no awareness of the ‘Even True’ effect, he had nothing to fear.

On the contrary, these set programs of the Fallen Immortal Realm became his means of obtaining certain treasures in each life.

Just like the Huadao Stone in Yi Yin’s tomb.

As he further explores the Fallen Immortal Realm, presumably, he could garner more resources swiftly in each life.

For Li Fan, this was all beneficial.

After gaining three Rebirth Longevity Fruit in the Fallen Immortal Realm, the interval before he could enter again had slightly lengthened.

However, unlike the whole year in his past life, he now only needed to wait for about eight months to enter again.

“Beast Driving Sect…”

Li Fan started looking forward to what he would gain from the scene of the Beast Driving Sect’s transformation.

Considering the Rebirth Longevity Fruit’s grade, it should be just as good.

Calculating the time left for his appointment with the face in the Five Elders Organization, it wouldn’t be long now.

Li Fan tidied up traces in the secret room, disguised as Zhou Qingang, and flew to the agreed location.

On another uninhabited island, Li Fan looked around for a while before finding the stone inscribed with coordinates.

“It seems, apart from Zhou Qingang, the Five Elders Organization has other secret agents in the Misthaven Ocean.”

“This stone, the communication stone, and Zhou Qingang’s funding every time, someone needs to arrange all this.”

“However, it’s better not to stir the grass and alert the snakes. Let’s get that five million contribution points first.”

Li Fan crushed the stone and set off towards the location it indicated.

It was another underwater ruin.

Li Fan placed his palms on an inconspicuous broken stone, successfully establishing contact.

“Boss, what’s the decision?” Li Fan asked, pretending to be uneasy.

“The headquarters have agreed to the deal.”

“However, they need to verify that the test questions are correct first.” The face replied.

“Excellent! I’ll inform He Zhenghao about it as soon as I return.” Li Fan was excited.

“By the way, boss, I’ve made a great contribution this time, is there any reward?”

Rubbing his hands, Li Fan looked expectantly at the face.

The face, seemingly expecting Li Fan’s reaction, chuckled, “Don’t worry, you won’t be short-changed. You’ve been drooling over the ‘One Heart Revered Lord’ painting, haven’t you? If this mission is completed successfully, I’ll have someone send it to you.”

“The ‘One Heart Revered Lord’ painting?” Li Fan’s mind quickly ran through the chivalrous scenes he had seen in the remnants of the Five Elder’s monk’s soul within the Soul Gathering Bead.

Hiding his annoyance, Li Fan hesitated as if he wanted to say something but couldn’t.

“What?” The face seemed surprised.

“Boss, that… I have already seen it. Can we barter it with something else?” Li Fan lowered his voice and his head slightly, his face somewhat embarrassed.

“Huh?!” The face was taken aback but quickly realized.

“No wonder you exhausted your funds so quickly! You spent them all on this?” He roared with anger.

All Li Fan did was to silently accept the scoldings.

After a while, the face’s rage subsided.

After some thought, he said, “Nevermind, in consideration for your contribution this time, I won’t fuss about it.”

“What about the Carefree Crystal Grid from [Realm of Blissful Ease]? Feel blissful and yearn to ascend. Haven’t you been pestering me about it for so long?”

Li Fan sighed inwardly.

After pondering for a while, he came up with an excuse and said politely, “Boss, this is what I think.”

“Didn’t you tell me to improve my relationship with He Zhenghao? But ever since he’s changed his Nascent Soul Cultivation Technique, his cultivation level has been improving rapidly, changing every day.”

“I reckon it won’t be long before he steps into the Golden Core Realm.”

“And I have been stuck at the Foundation Establishment Stage for so long. If I can’t make a breakthrough soon, it might be difficult to befriend him with my Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation.”

“After all, this man…”

Li Fan made a face at the thought and shook his head disapprovingly.

“Hmm? You’ve gotten smarter?” The face was somewhat surprised as he gave Li Fan a once-over.

However, after some contemplation, he found Li Fan’s words made sense.

With a nod, he affirmed, “You’re right, He Zhenghao is crucial. He’s one of the key personnel you need to focus on winning over in the future.”

“In addition, the Array Structure of the Tian Yuan Life Formation of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals can be possibly deduced from him.”

After a pause, the face added, “Hmm, the task is arduous. It seems we should enhance your cultivation level to Golden Core Stage as soon as possible.”

“You can find a way to exchange for the practice amongst the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals; we can’t help in that aspect.”

“But Enlightenment Pills… we can give you a couple of bottles.”

Upon hearing this, Li Fan was delighted internally.

He had experienced the miraculous effects of the Enlightenment Pill.

But due to its limited supply, even his money could not buy much.

But if he could get some from the face, it would be much better.

“That’s too little, it’s not enough!”

Still, Li Fan feigned greediness.

“Boss, you know my aptitude, even the miraculous Enlightenment Pill has limited effects on me!”

Impatiently, the face said, “Shush, I’m thinking!”
