Chapter 1697: Chapter 1402: Xuan Huang in Thin Slices_2
âSo, if you truly wish to save your hometown, then strive to become a True Immortal!â
âThis crystal from the Xuanhuang World shall serve as my gift to you.â
Li Fanâs voice gradually quieted down.
The Celestial Doctorâs vision warped briefly, then returned to the vast expanse of the Ruined World The Wall.
The young True Immortal had already vanished.
Only the Xuanhuang World crystal held tightly in the Celestial Doctorâs hand served as a lingering reminder that everything that had just transpired was not an illusion.
The Celestial Doctor stared again at the miniature Xuanhuang World in his palm. It seemed to have resumed its operation.
Within the world, all living beings continued their lives, completely unaware.
Not even the grand words floating above the Vault of Heaven caught their attention.
âAh yes, my patience⊠itâs not particularly good.â
âYou have one thousand days. If, by then, you still show no signs of breakthroughâŠâ
âHehehe.â
The chilling laughter of the young True Immortal echoed in the Celestial Doctorâs mind.
The Celestial Doctorâs breath hitched sharply.
It was as though he was face to face again with the young True Immortalâs utterly indifferent gaze.
Clenching the Xuanhuang World crystal tightly, the Celestial Doctor stared at the countdown displayed across the Vault of Heaven, feeling an unprecedented weight upon his shoulders.
From the brief contact just now, the Celestial Doctor deeply understood the capricious temperament and unfathomable methods of this young True Immortal.
Not to mention how, in a heartbeat, the Immortal Array had trapped him with no discernible weak points to exploit.
And then, there was the effortless creation of the Xuanhuang World and its transformation into a crystalâacts simply incomprehensible to the current Celestial Doctor.
âA thousand days⊠Ascend to True Immortal?â The Celestial Doctor furrowed his brows tightly, beginning to formulate strategies.
âPerhaps, my only hope lies within the Invisible WallâŠâ
The Celestial Doctor could not help but gaze toward a patch of void not far away.
Over the long years, his relentless inspiration had brought him ever closer to unraveling the secrets of the Wall.
Yet, owing to an inexplicable forewarning and his dedication to reviving the Heavenly Law Realm, the Celestial Doctor had not devoted himself entirely to comprehending the Wall.
But now, it seemed he had no other choice.
âŠ
As the Celestial Doctor struggled with his dilemma,
Li Fanâs true form had already arrived before the Celestial Dharma Bearer.
Observing how, even within a complete Immortal-level Illusionary Formation, the Celestial Dharma Bearer could swiftly discern its flaws and relentlessly seek a path to undo the predicament,
Li Fan couldnât help but frown slightly.
âAs expected of the Heavenly Demon. His capacity to resist illusion arrays surpasses even that of the Celestial Doctor.â
On the Celestial Doctorâs side, Li Fan had, of course, voluntarily removed the Immortal Arrayâs restrictions.
Endlessly toying with the Star Sea Supreme offered little meaningful benefit.
Allowing him to utilize his full potential was what Li Fan most desired to see.
As anticipated, under the dual pressure of the Immortal Array and the complete Xuanhuang World crystal,
The Celestial Doctor was temporarily misled.
The Immortal Array, naturally, was created using the Immortal Array Dissolution Disc.
As for the Xuanhuang World crystalâŠ
It was a creation born from the burst of feedback power in Li Fanâs dantian during the ascension of the Xuanhuang World to the Elevated Immortal Domain in a previous lifetime.
Originally, during the ascension, the boundless feedback power had already surpassed dozens of times the energy total of the Xuanhuang World in its elevated state.
And when the Xuanhuang World fully ascended into the Immortal Domain,
The Xuanhuang Cloud Mist continuously flickering in Li Fanâs dantian now floated and shimmered.
It was akin to the incessantly flashing imagery on Immortal World copper coins.
Within the misty clouds, shifting light and shadow evolved, and each instant seemed to give rise to a new Xuanhuang World.
Of course, Li Fan knew this was merely his illusion.
The reason why the Xuanhuang Cloud Mist flickered like a revolving lantern was the sheer enormity of the feedback power. Sequentially arranged, its stillness transitioned into motion.
Though its volume was colossal, it was far from approaching the realm of âinfinity.â
According to Li Fanâs own calculations, the energy currently concentrated in his dantian roughly equated to ten thousand times the total energy of the Xuanhuang World in its normal state.
This was a force so staggering that even Li Fan found it completely inconceivable. At times, he had felt a fleeting, horrific illusion of the Xuanhuang Cloud Mist erupting violently within his body.
Nonetheless, after the initial shock, Li Fan realized that this power was no different from the Star Sea Infinite Force, perhaps even slightly inferior.
Quantitative changes could not form into qualitative changes.
Gradually, Li Fan stopped paying it much attention.
Slicing off a fragment and shaping it into the Xuanhuang World crystal as a small gift for the Celestial Doctor.
To Li Fan, such an act was barely worth mention.
Moreover, to retain perpetual control over the Celestial Doctor, this shard of Xuanhuang also concealed a trace of residual Immortal Arrayâs energy.
It could erupt at any time, trapping the Celestial Doctor once more.
Shifting his thoughts away from the Celestial Doctor, back to the Celestial Dharma Bearer within the array formation, Li Fan did not act as casually as he did with the Celestial Doctor.
Because various signs from past reincarnations hinted that the Celestial Dharma Bearer might very well be the reincarnation of the King of Mystic Sky, later possessed and controlled by the Heavenly Demon.
The Heavenly Demon, inherently a peculiar being that seizes the creations of Heaven and Earth, walks the path of the Heart Demon, and fuses with the Heavenly Dao of worldsâeven within the Ancient Xian Realm, it was an incredibly rare existence.
Even the King of Mystic SkyâŠ
As a Half-Immortal, Li Fan could deeply perceive the unfathomable power of âImmortal.â
Thus, he exercised greater prudence.
At the end of his previous life, when the Xuanhuang World successfully ascended to the Immortal Domain, the peculiar behavior of the Celestial Dharma Bearer remained vivid in his memory.
How could Li Fan possibly underestimate him?
Such was the reason that, on the Celestial Doctorâs side, only a phantom shadow of the Immortal Array was divided out to deal with him. Yet here, Li Fanâs true form watched over the Celestial Dharma Bearer personally.
Li Fanâs gaze was solemn, and the peculiar circumstances of the Celestial Dharma Bearer prompted gradual adjustments to the Immortal Array through the Immortal Array Dissolution Disc.
At this moment, the Celestial Dharma Bearerâs world split into two halves within his view.
On the left, there was the Xuanhuang World, familiar as ever.
On the right, there was the homeland of the Celestial Doctor, Sky Extermination, and various Transmitting Law Realm Venerables.
The dual worlds flickered incessantly like shadows of lamps in the wind, swapping positions constantly.
Gradually, the perpetually tranquil countenance of the Celestial Dharma Bearer began to display agonized expressions.
It was as though something within him sought to break free from its bindings.
However, the splitting force still lacked sufficient power.
Eventually, it retreated back.
Watching this unfold, Li Fan drove the Immortal Array again, accelerating the transition frequency of the two worlds.
Concurrently, he launched traces of golden threads, soundlessly piercing into the Celestial Dharma Bearerâs body.
In the past, Li Fan had witnessed the Celestial Doctorâs method of controlling the Celestial Dharma Bearer.
Given his current insight, reversing and unraveling that control methodâŠ
Was not challenging.
It merely required repeated attempts.
