Chapter 1606: Chapter 1358: The Immortal Array Traps the Celestial Doctor (7K)_3
Having flown past The Wall of the Ruined World, he arrived at a desolate, uninhabited space within the Star Sea.
It was then that Li Fan began to treat Mo Rubingâs injuries.
Under the massive infusion of Spiritual Power and Divine Soul Power, Mo Rubing gradually woke up from his severe comatose state.
His flesh and blood also slowly began to regrow.
âEhâŠâ
Mo Rubing opened his eyes in a daze, and after seeing Li Fanâs concerned face, he was momentarily stunned.
Then he abruptly turned his head, surveying his surroundings.
âHm? Wasnât I beneath the High Wall?â
âYou were badly hurt, thankfully I found you in time,â Li Fan explained briefly.
It seemed to trigger a segment of lost memory in Mo Rubing, his body jerked as if shocked by electricity.
âWhat exactly happened? Your condition just now was too pitiful. To think something could have injured you to such an extentâŠâ Li Fan stared intently at Mo Rubing.
Mo Rubing opened his mouth but was at a loss for words.
âWhen you were unconscious, there was a peculiar fluctuation that swept across the Star Sea.â
âAnd such Strange Phenomena, there have been three identical accounts of it beforeâŠâ
âDo you know what this means?â
The words from Li Fan made Mo Rubingâs expression turn to one of disbelief.
After pondering for a long time, he finally slowly said, âActually⊠I am not very clear about it either.â
âI only remember, at that time, I was contemplating the secrets of The Wall and seemed to have suddenly understood something.â
âI canât describe what I was inspired by.â
âI only felt that at that moment, like a fish leaping out of the sea, a bird breaking through the skies. It seemed as if I had witnessed a completely different scene than beforeâŠâ
Mo Rubingâs tone was somewhat enigmatic; he frowned, trying to recall that past sensation in detail.
âAfter that, I lost consciousness and passed out.â
Li Fan couldnât help asking, âSo there was no resistance at all?â
Mo Rubing shook his head.
âThat Strange Phenomena would rapidly weaken as it spread through the Star Sea. The intensity of it when I encountered it next to my Immortal Boat was already so horrifying. It is conceivable that at the starting point where the outbreak occurred at The Wall, just how astounding that power was. As Morubin suggested, could it have been a self-defense mechanism of The Wall triggered by Enlightenment?â Li Fan thought to himself.
At this point, Morubin also realized, âYou taking me away⊠does that mean someone went to investigate that flaw in The Wall?â
âCorrect. And that person is very strong, probably stronger than both of us,â said Li Fan with a heavy tone.â
Mo Rubingâs expression kept changing.
âNo, I must return to The Wallâs flaw immediately. I have a premonition; my previous inspiration is fading fast like a tide. If I canât use The Wallâs aura to retain that inspiration, Iâm afraid all my past efforts will be wasted!â he declared resolutely.
Having said this, he didnât care for Li Fanâs reaction and directly rushed towards his destination.
Even knowing that there was an unknown powerful enemy ahead, he still chose to proceed. This was completely out of character compared to Morubinâs usual behavior, showing just how great The Wallâs secrets were to a Cultivator.
It even had the power to influence oneâs mind to some degree.
Li Fan, after pondering for a moment, decided to follow.
The Wooden Sword Mirage enveloped the two of them, while the Essence of Source Power formed an Immortal Array, concealing their presence.
âActually, returning now also seems like a good opportunity. If the other party checks and finds no one, they will likely try to track us for a while out of instinct. They certainly wonât expect us to returnâŠâ
As they spoke, the two had already returned to the location of The Wallâs flaw.
The presence of the Celestial Doctor was indeed nowhere to be seen.
Mo Rubing was about to move forward, when suddenly Li Fan extended his hand to block him.
After a careful observation, they found strands of thread in the Void, sticking like a spiderâs web.
Adhering to the Invisible Wall, these threads heavily obscured the location of the flaw.
This scene caused both Li Fan and Mo Rubing to take a deep breath.
âThisâŠâ
Both had truly experienced the Transcendence of The Wall.
Especially Morubin, after spending month after month in Enlightenment under The Wall, he knew very well that just staying beneath The Wall for a prolonged period with his strength was extremely difficult.
Let alone leaving his own energy and traces on it.
âCould it be that such a person has emerged in the Star Sea?â
After the initial shock, Li Fan quickly regained his composure: âItâs just a temporary measure after all. Those golden threads are fading naturally.â
âWe just need to wait a bit longer.â
âThe key is, we canât wait,â Morubin said gravely.
âIt seems the person who laid out this trap must have had a similar Enlightenment experience as me. They know that stopping me for a while will sufficeâŠâ
âMoreoverâŠâ
Morubin scanned the surroundings: âIâm afraid they havenât gone far and are waiting nearby for us to take the bait.â
Although his words suggested caution, Morubin was already involuntarily approaching the area of The Wall entwined with golden threads.
The unbearably suppressed aura emanating from him indicated that his reason was gradually being overwhelmed by desire.
Frowning and after a long contemplation, Li Fan eventually sighed: âSo be it. I shall risk my life to accompany the Gentleman.â
âI will hold off the opponent!â
âYou must act quickly, I may not be able to delay for long!â
Before he had finished speaking, strands of golden threads flew out from Li Fanâs body.
In the Void, they weaved an exquisitely beautiful pattern.
âLet the Celestial Doctor try the true mettle of my [Enigmatic, Xuanhuang Beings] Great Array!â
Li Fan snorted internally.
While he didnât want to provoke conflict with the Celestial Doctor prematurely, he was by no means afraid of him.
Especially with the dual augmentations of his Escape Technique and Immortal Array, Li Fan was confident he could suppress the Celestial Doctor in the short term!
