Everything was within Li Fanâs control, and he succeeded in obtaining two copies of the grey mold spot.
The entire process was fraught with danger but ultimately finished without incidence.
"Thankfully, I have the âColored Jade Hollow Glare,â a treasure akin to a container, that sealed the grey mold spot. Otherwise, ordinary methods would certainly fail to control it."
"Once the grey mold spot escapes, it would likely lead to a world-ending disaster."
Despite holding such a terrifying object, not a trace of fear could be seen on Li Fanâs face.
He observed the different reactions of the grey mold spots within the Three Light Spheres.
The largest one, having seen the consequences of the molds that were lured out, calmed down and ceased its agitation.
It quietly lurked within the skull, exactly as Li Fan had seen it before.
The second light sphere seemed to be indignant about being sealed. It continued to aggressively erode the surrounding Seven-Color Divine Light.
But under Li Fanâs constant supply of Cave Heaven Power, it was a futile effort.
The grey mold spot within the third light sphere, being in the smallest quantity and apparently because it had just split off recently, was the calmest. Its outer color was not as deep and dark as its predecessors.
"This is..."
Consequently, Li Fan was able to see the true form of the grey mold spot.
It was composed of many orderly horizontal and vertical lines, just like...
A certain kind of writing.
Li Fan couldnât help but narrow his eyes.
In his spirit consciousness, the gargantuan character that loomed over the Immortal Ruins appeared in an instant.
The character hidden within the grey mold spot seemed to have many similarities with it!
Although the scale of the two was vastly different, Li Fan, when considering and comparing them from a calligraphic perspective,
still discovered that a portion of the "strokes" nearly matched perfectly!
Being unable to witness the full image of the character, Li Fan couldnât confirm which character it was that formed the terrifying world-ending grey spots.
But Li Fan could ascertain that this character, like [Hunger] and [Chaos], was one of the origins of turmoil across the realms!
"There are differences between the three."
"I havenât seen the true character for Chaos, only the copy mimicked by the mysterious person."
"The complete character for Hunger led to the formation of the Immortal Ruins. The Endless Void and countless Immortal Cultivation Worlds were affected."
"And this new character, without a complete entity, transformed into countless grey mold spots, eroding the worlds."
In Li Fanâs spirit consciousness, words flashed by swiftly.
He sought to find one that corresponded with the catastrophic impact brought by the grey mold spot.
Yet none matched.
"Thatâs right, all Iâve seen are just the surface."
"They are merely the external influences created by the character of a True Immortal."
"Just like when I previously observed the Xuanhuang World being drawn in by the Immortal Ruins..."
"Attraction is merely an outward manifestation. To understand the real core, one must personally see the character of the True Immortal. Itâs a [Hunger] character..."
"So, what is the essence of the grey mold spot?"
Li Fan quietly watched the three light spheres in front of him, falling into a prolonged contemplation.
After an unknown length of time, he awakened from his deep thoughts.
Clearly, mere guesses were inadequate for Li Fan to grasp the mysteries within, given his level of comprehension.
"Perhaps cultivating more grey mold spots and observing their proliferation might reveal something."
"However..."
After a momentâs hesitation, Li Fan still temporarily suppressed this thought.
Even if the Seven-Color Divine Light had a natural sealing effect on the grey mold spots, it did not mean that the level of the Colored Jade Hollow Glare was higher than that of the mold spots.
After all, what Li Fan could manage was merely sealing the mold spots.
As time passed, the mold spots wouldnât disappear or weaken on their own, while the Seven-Color Divine Light would continue to erode.
In truth, it was nothing more than using the primordial force of a realmâs Heavenly Dao to delay the outbreak of the mold spots.
"It works on the same principle as how the Xuanhuang World has managed to maintain itself for nearly ten thousand years due to the attraction of the Immortal Ruins."
"Even though I possess the Five Elements Great Cave Heaven, thereâs hardly any risk of the Seven-color Divine Light being completely exhausted."
"But to be safe, three sealed orbs of light are already more than enough."
"After all, my goal has been achieved."
He then collected these orbs of light back into the deepest part of his own Cave Heaven, suppressing them heavily.
"With these items in hand, even if an Immortal Sovereign comes, they will fall into my calculations."
As for the consequences of using the grey mold spot...
At worst, the Xuanhuang Annihilation, Even True restart is it!
However, Li Fan wouldnât lightly use this final trump card.
Now that his strength has greatly increased, and the weakness of his Divine Soul has been rectified. Facing the Immortal Sovereign, he could now manage a few exchanges.
Plus, with the protection of the Seven-color Divine Light, he shouldnât encounter the situation from before, where he couldnât even use the Even True.
He wouldnât be instantaneously killed and would be able to use Even True in time.
Under these two premises, it was also good to accumulate more experience in fighting against Immortal Realm cultivators.
Li Fan had already started planning the most suitable candidates in his heart.
"Letâs start with the Ancient Law of Immortality."
Itâs a pity that the Ancient Law of Immortality cultivators who have lived up to this day can all be called ultimate old monsters.
For a moment, Li Fan couldnât find a soft persimmon he could squeeze.
...
Just as Li Fan was brewing his plans within the Spirit Tree Realm.
Outside, the Heavenly Venerable Law Phases jointly manifested by the thirty-three Chosen Immortals had made another move!
This time, the Heavenly Venerable Law Phase appeared within the Five Eldersâ Territory!
In Yongliang State, bordering Jiushan Province!
Unlike its display of power in Jiushan Province, where it was overwhelming everything in its path, this time the Heavenly Venerable Law Phase rose above the Sky Dome, opened its eyes,
And the endless beings of Yongliang State indeed felt a crisis of impending doom about to arrive.
But at this critical moment, the shadow of a scholar appeared, blocking the front of the Heavenly Venerable Law Phase.
He was seen slightly tilting his head upward, lips slightly parted, as if saying something.
And gradually, the cultivators of Yongliang State found that the Heavenly Venerable Law Phase in the sky was slowly closing its eyes again!
Boom...
Within a slight tremor, the spectral image of the Heavenly Venerable Law Phase dissipated into nothingness.
A world-ending tribulation was thus averted.
The scholarâs figure also slowly faded away, and countless cultivators bowed towards the heavens, expressing their gratitude to the Heavenly Venerable.
"It seems that within the region enveloped by the Immortal Sovereignâs defiance of reason, itâs still a bit of a stretch to contend with cultivators of the Immortal Realm."
"No wonder the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals hasnât been able to gain any substantial advantages from the Five Elders Organization over the years."
"Itâs really because the power of the Heavenly Sovereigns is too strong."
"Rather than saying they are fighting against cultivators, itâs more like theyâre contesting with the five Immortal strong ones."
"Thereâs simply no chance of winning."
Upon receiving this image from the Five Elders Organization, Li Fan thought so.
But then, he frowned slightly.
The Immortal Alliance always plans carefully before acting and doesnât engage in meaningless actions.
They surely know that within the territory of the Five Elders Organization, the Heavenly Venerable Law Phases wouldnât be able to avail themselves of any advantage.
Yet they still went ahead with it.
"Could they be testing something?"
Li Fan couldnât help but become interested.
