Chapter 1863: Chapter 1486: Hai Zhen Bestows God’s Technique

Li Fan’s surprise attack was like a sudden black shadow appearing beneath the water’s surface.

The Immortal Hunter of the Starry Sea Frontier noticed the incoming assault, first slightly stunned. But soon calmed down.

Yet, there was a trace of anger hidden in his expression.

With the great power of the Dao Network, he was about to suppress the audacious intruder. But unexpectedly…

The magnificent Tao, for some unknown reason, melted away like ice and snow the moment it approached that shadow. The fist he swung with great force couldn’t even blow away a single leaf.

Not only that, the very foundation of his strength: the Dao Network. It itself was also dissipating!

It seemed that the shadow had corroded a massive hole in the Dao Network, and he was falling into this deep Black Hole.

The fury in the Immortal Hunter’s eyes shifted to terror in an instant.

The Nameless, initially prepared to watch the show, also sensed something was amiss. As he was about to act to help, he felt a hand gently pressed on his shoulder. It felt as though mountains weighed down upon him, and he couldn’t move!

He could only watch helplessly as the Immortal Hunter was engulfed by the black shadow.

“What is going on here?”

After everything had settled, Li Fan’s lazy voice rang out. He didn’t even mention the suppressed Immortal Hunter, as if he had just casually swatted a fly—not worth mentioning.

Knowing well that his recent disrespectful behavior must have angered this capricious “Hidden Emperor,” which prompted him to act.

Thinking about Elder Wei, ranked among the top three in the Starry Sea Frontier’s Governing Council, being so easily captured, Nameless’s heart turned cold.

In recent years, the Governing Council had analyzed this Hidden Emperor’s strength through various means. However, the realm that his opponent displayed at this moment was far beyond their analytical scope.

“Even that lord probably couldn’t achieve such a level.”

“No wonder in all these years, despite knowing of this Hidden Emperor’s existence, no one dared to pay him a visit. It turns out they were afraid…”

Nameless’s mind was in turmoil, but his body’s reaction didn’t falter. He bowed his head respectfully and said: “I sensed anomalies in the Dao of the Starry Sea Frontier and feared it might be a summon by the senior, so I hurried here to investigate.”

Nameless didn’t mention the Immortal Hunter at all.

“Hmph.”

“Is there any problem with me absorbing a bit of your Dao conventions? After all, you have the Dao Network for support, and recently you’ve even had the Inheritor’s Illusion of True Immortals in the past hundred years to aid you.” Li Fan asked coldly.

With the Immortal Hunter Elder, who was supposed to be his support, captured outright, Nameless dared not show any dissent. He could only nod bitterly: “No problem, no problem.”

“I’ve been awake for a while now, and though the Dao Yan has just begun to cease, and many things need to be revived. I wish to reestablish the Immortal Court…”

Nameless was just calculating how to explain himself to the Immortal Hunter side of the Starry Sea Frontier when he returned.

Li Fan’s words, however, were like a thunderclap, blasting his Spirit Consciousness into a void.

“Reestablish the Immortal Court?” Nameless was dumbfounded.

The vast, boundless grand scene of the Immortal World a long time ago involuntarily appeared before his eyes.

“With the Dao Yan not yet withdrawn, reestablishing the Immortal World is temporarily impossible. But restoring an Immortal Domain…”

“It’s still something that can be done with some effort.” Li Fan said arrogantly.

“Soon it will be completed, and at that time, those of you interested may come to visit. However, idle people and those who do not understand etiquette need not come.”

Nameless was still immersed in this explosive news, his mind in a daze. Just as he was about to respond, he felt the heavy pressure on his shoulder once more. When his surroundings flashed into a new scene and he came to his senses, he had already been thrown thousands of miles away.

And it seemed something else had been thrown out with him.

However, that thing stopped after merely escaping three thousand miles, standing quietly in the Void.

At first glance, it seemed to be a stone pillar.

Engraved on it was a large character for [Silence].

Yet, after observing for a moment, Nameless felt a chill spread through his body, as if plunged into an icy cave.

What stood before him wasn’t a stone pillar at all.

It was clearly the same Immortal Hunter Elder who had come with him!

“Since the creation of the Dao Network, Wei Daofu had already been one of its pillars. After steeping in the Dao Network for many years, he became one with all paths. Facing the Nameless, he was at ease.”

“Previously, during negotiations, he forced back three simultaneous attacks with great power. Never would anyone have expected him to fall to such a state now…”

There was no sorrow for another’s misfortune in Nameless’s heart, only an indescribable terror.

“The analysis initially suggested that the Hidden Emperor had stumbled upon Lord Guardian Hill’s mystique by chance. Now it seems, perhaps it was deliberately entrusted by Lord Guardian Hill. With such power, he is likely a close friend of Lord Guardian Hill…” The more Nameless thought, the more he felt guilty. He dared not attend to the transformed stone pillar Elder Wei, rushing back to the Sea of the Northern Stars posthaste.

The matter was too significant; he had to inform everyone as soon as possible.

…

Li Fan coldly watched Nameless’s disappearing figure, shifting his gaze back to the Silent-word stone pillar.

Though it was also a stone pillar, its essence was different from the Primordial and other Heavenly Pillars.

It was merely Li Fan using the “Path” of engraving to morph it, rather than condensing a singular Tao.

After all, the Immortal Hunter was only borrowing the power of the Dao Network and did not possess any path within himself.

After Li Fan isolated this Immortal Hunter from the Dao Network using the power of [Limitless], the strength he exhibited wasn’t even as strong as the Celestial Doctor within the High Wall.

Though transformed into a pillar, he still retained his own perception. Gone was the previous arrogance, leaving only fear, despair, regret, and an array of complex emotions swirling in his heart.

Li Fan used this Immortal Hunter’s inner fear as a lead, slowly corroding and probing his mind.

As expected, anything involving the Dao Network was covered with a kind of veil, blurry and unclear. But the various affairs within the Starry Sea Frontier’s Governing Council were, nonetheless, clear as day.
