Chapter 1727: Chapter 1417

Having activated the [Simulacra, Myriad Beings] Array Technique, how could Li Fan possibly stop just because of a few pleas from Mirror Profound?

From previous Reincarnation experiences, Li Fan had already grasped the nature of this Mirror Profound. Perhaps for safety’s sake, Li Fan might spare him a small trace of life. But for the mirror spirit of the Tianxuan Mirror, Li Fan would certainly not let Mirror Profound remain!

The Dharma Transmission received the Treasure Mirror long ago, and still chose to retain the existence of the artifact spirit, merely leaving a Handler to control. This was absolutely because he lacked strength and could not accomplish it. But Li Fan was different.

Not only with the Immortal Array’s blessing, but also knowing and grasping the human replica of Mirror Profound.

This human replica amounts to Mirror Profound creating a tailored version for himself, without the constraints of Immortal Instruments.

Mirror Profound once appraised this form: “It inherits the weight of the instrument and the spirit of humanity. Perfect and flawless, nearly a True Immortal.”

During those thousand years locked down by the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, Mirror Profound painstakingly devised this escape strategy. Or rather, escape Path. The mysteriousness of this Path lies not just in the human form before us, but in the continually generating “principles” of these human forms. As long as the physical Tianxuan Mirror remains, even if the human form is killed, it can quickly regenerate again.

Earlier, when Li Fan conversed with Mirror Profound, the latter spoke cryptically and opaquely.

Now upon personal investigation, this method was already fully revealed.

“Overall, it’s similar to Zhang Qianmo’s Great Vow Dharma Body principle. Only Zhang Qianmo’s Great Vow Dharma Body relies on the Tao in the Xuanhuang World.”

“While Mirror Profound’s replica’s foundational base is merely the Tianxuan Mirror itself!”

“The Tianxuan Mirror, though equally lacking even the slightest Immortal Spirit Energy to carry, still retains its rank as an Immortal Instrument. Moreover, it holds a vast amount of celestial knowledge, making the rank even more stable. The weight of an instrument exceeds One Realm, possibly prevailing over it.”

Li Fan’s expression showed no change. Yet in his heart, he couldn’t help but voice admiration.

But appreciation was appreciation, actions couldn’t halt.

In Mirror Profound’s horrified gaze, he extracted a sliver of the Tianxuan Mirror’s essence.

By his side, Emperor Tri-Moa and Dharma Transmitter Zhou, with eyes observing the nose, and nose observing heart, were surely unaware of what Li Fan extracted.

But how could Mirror Profound not know?

Seeing that familiar, entwining aura in Li Fan’s hand, Mirror Profound’s facial expression was akin to seeing a ghost.

He began to rapidly think about when he had separated this sliver of essence. But no matter how much he cracked his brain, he couldn’t find the answer.

Despair, a gloomy mood, gradually enveloped him.

This voluntary gift from the Tianxuan Mirror in the past became the last strand of silk in his self-made cocoon.

Mirror Profound once proudly declared that no one in the Xuanhuang World could truly hurt him. That was true in the past. But now, Li Fan had already Ascended to the Semi-Immortal Stage!

Using the Mystic Sky Sealing Spirit Array as the fundamental core, the Dissociation Disc instantly derived an Immortal-Level advanced version, firmly controlling the Tianxuan Mirror entity.

He tackled from both the mirror spirit and human replica angles, both aspects together. Using the Tianxuan Mirror essence as the natural access point, he created a new “Mirror Profound” with the Simulated Array, gradually replacing its control over the Tianxuan Mirror.

Such a heaven-defying method of swapping day for night is unimaginable to ordinary folk. Even for Celestial Doctors, such as Law Transmission from the Star Sea Supreme, it might only be in a conceptual phase.

Yet Li Fan could achieve it effortlessly. Part of the credit lays with the Immortal Array Dissolution Disc. But more importantly, Li Fan’s Semi-Immortal stance counterbalanced the Tianxuan Mirror’s “Immortal Instrument” rank’s oppression.

Both are from equivalent status, with no insurmountable divide. No matter how tight the defenses, how could it withstand all means deployed?

Even without the Dissociation Disc’s assistance, Li Fan would just need a little more time to reach his goal.

Analysis and replication of Mirror Profound continue. Li Fan discovered remnants of hidden forbidden formations within the Tianxuan Mirror entity. All were easily swept away by him.

Even if Mirror Profound didn’t act out before, this anomaly within the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals at present couldn’t be concealed.

“Transmission and Celestial Doctor are already heading back to the Xuanhuang World. It’s opportune to capture them all at once and suppress them,” Li Fan thought casually, glancing upward, without paying special heed.

Having witnessed Dark Heavenly Doctor and Xie Subai, two individuals from outside possibilities, Li Fan deemed that they should stay safe and sound, for the security of all living beings within the Star Sea.

During the time waiting for analysis completion, Li Fan reflected on his recent processes of separating Yan Fajue and replicating Mirror Profound.

“With my current means, completely [replicating] someone is somewhat challenging.”

“However, creating something with eight or nine parts similarity should be feasible. This unavoidable flaw from inadequate strength, in the face of extinguishing possibilities, nearing present, might actually be an advantage.”

“The true Celestial Doctor cannot cross the High Wall. What about the Celestial Doctor-like being I created?”

Li Fan’s gaze flickered, developing, refining his exploration plan.

In the Tianxuan Mirror Space, day and night are indistinguishable.

As expected of a truly complete Immortal Instrument, albeit shed of Immortal Spirit Energy, the difficulty in replicating its spirit exceeded Li Fan’s expectations.

It took a full thirty-six hours for Li Fan to initially create the Imitation Mirror Profound.
