Chapter 1673: Chapter 1393: Flicking a High Wall

Li Fan didn’t have time to react before the voice clearly appeared within his spirit consciousness.

It seemed to have precisely locked onto Li Fan.

Then it quickly faded away, like snow melting into water, leaving no trace behind.

Only after all of this happened did Li Fan’s body begin to stiffen slightly, his breath hitching.

He scanned his surroundings, observing cautiously.

Staring at the [Huanzhen] interface that had appeared before him, Li Fan exhaled deeply after a long pause and silently closed it in his mind.

“Thankfully, it was just a false alarm!”

“The sound’s target for transmission appeared to merely be the one who destroyed the bronze cast immortal crane.”

“But this transmission…”

“It seems to have come from beyond the high wall?!” Li Fan’s heart wavered uncertainly.

His eyes narrowed as he carefully recalled the voice he had just heard.

“In the year Tianluo 213. Upon the rise of Da Yuan, chaos prevails, Yong Chi ascends, Yi converges with stars, and…”

“…”

“What does that mean?” Li Fan frowned deeply.

It seemed to be nothing more than a jumble of chaotic words with no apparent significance.

But for the transmission to cross the high wall and strike such a precise target…

There must be some hidden meaning.

“It seems like it could be referencing a particular era.”

“But it’s layered with complexity. What could it possibly imply?”

“Could it be some sort of calendar system unique to the immortal world?”

Li Fan pondered for a long time, unable to unravel any straightforward understanding.

The concepts within this transmission were things he had never encountered before in any of his previous reincarnations.

“The transmission was triggered by the destruction of the bronze cast immortal crane.”

“The bronze cast immortal crane was left alongside pieces of the immortal domain chessboard…”

“Perhaps it’s an important message left by Sun Piaomiao for those completing the revival of the immortal domain.”

At the moment, this was the only guess Li Fan could make.

With too little to go on, no matter how deeply he probed, it would be futile. Li Fan resolved to firmly record this message in his heart for future reflection.

What concerned Li Fan more now was the significance of the transmission coming from outside the wall.

“Could Sun Piaomiao have disappeared without a trace because he had already crossed beyond the wall?”

“The time he vanished—before the calamity that extinguished the immortal world—predates the wall’s existence. Later, when the invisible wall arose to engulf the star sea, Sun Piaomiao never returned…”

“What does the high wall truly represent?” Li Fan’s thoughts churned wildly.

This transmission from beyond the wall reignited his profound interest in the mysteries of that unknown realm.

“No matter what, the immortal domain left behind by Sun Piaomiao is undoubtedly a critical clue.”

“But for now, my strength remains insufficient to delve deeper.”

“Unity-Path! Immortal realm!”

As Li Fan continued his exploration, the more he uncovered, the more he was inundated by infinite enigmas and unknowns.

The drive to become stronger burned within him more intensely than ever before.

…

In the Xuanhuang World, time ticked away steadily.

The Nameless Great Heavenly Sovereign existed in emptiness, unaware and unfeeling, adhering to the self-guided operation of the Xuanhuang Heaven Path to endlessly repair the accumulated wounds of millennia.

Additionally, Li Fan’s continuous and diverse efforts to secretly nourish it provided further support.

Three years passed, and the Xuanhuang World had grown immensely strong, reaching its peak.

It had arrived at the critical threshold where quantitative accumulation catalyzes qualitative transformation.

The living beings within the world, even while trapped in the illusion array, were swept up by the grand momentum naturally nurtured by Heaven and Earth—anticipation mixed with boundless dread.

The three-year mark had arrived.

Li Fan sensed that the constraint on Nameless was slowly beginning to dissolve on its own.

The true Great Supreme Lord Xuan Huang, absent for ten thousand years, was about to once again walk the earth!

An invisible weight seemed to press onto Li Fan’s shoulders.

This was the power and authority emanating from the Great Supreme Lord Xuan Huang!

Feeling the restraint upon his body, Li Fan frowned slightly. This situation was unexpected, but after contemplating for a moment, he quickly found clarity.

The Great Supreme Lord Xuan Huang had been appointed by the immortal world to govern the Xuanhuang Heaven Path and the living beings of the world.

Since Mr. Bai’s era, there had been a vacancy for ten thousand years, though the position still existed.

The Celestial Dharma Bearer had disseminated the new cultivation methods of devouring Heaven and Earth to all living beings. From absorbing the spirit of Heaven and Earth to defying the Principle of Heaven and Earth, as cultivators advanced their realms of cultivation, their connection to the world became increasingly profound.

As of today, new-method cultivators and the Xuanhuang World were deeply intertwined, inseparable from Heaven and Earth.

The Xuanhuang Heavenly Earth must adhere strictly to the Supreme Lord’s orders and cannot disobey.

Thus, when the new Great Supreme Lord Xuan Huang emerged, all cultivators practicing the new methods also sensed this layer of binding power.

Conversely, cultivators are indeed part of Heaven and Earth, but the overall strength of Xuanhuang World’s cultivators is so immense that even excluding the Celestial Dharma Bearer, the remaining cultivators alone wouldn’t fall far short of Xuanhuang World itself.

The restrictive forces originating from ancient times in the Xuanhuang World could still affect cultivators.

But its effectiveness was limited.

“This so-called dynamic of strength and weakness—ancient laws are never absolute. Strength governs weakness; weakness is ineffective!”

The burden on his body was nothing in comparison to the weight of carrying the immortal domain fragment chess piece. For Li Fan, it barely hindered his movements.

“Though the massive transformations in the Xuanhuang World will not escape the attention of the Celestial Dharma Bearer and the Celestial Doctor—they are bound to return soon.”

“Fortunately, I’ve made adequate preparations during these three years.”

Li Fan’s gaze shifted to beyond the Xuanhuang World.

Golden threads encased the edge of the Xuanhuang World’s sky dome boundary, like an invisible high wall separating the Xuanhuang World and the void outside.

Within the condensed golden light, countless flickering shadows appeared to evolve endlessly.

Li Fan looked at the creation he had meticulously prepared, fully satisfied.

“The improved All Beings Great Array of Xuanhuang, combined with the replicated invisible high wall…”

“And most critical of all—the deterrent power of the Nameless True Immortal’s leg bone!”
