Chapter 1316: Crossing the Sea of ​​Stars with a Sword
It's not really that the flow of time has changed.

Instead, the mysterious and yellow world surrounding the Infinite Mirror expanded countless times in speed.

It was as if the accelerator key was pressed. In a breath, the light and shadow flickered and flashed tens of millions of times.

The ancient Wuliang Mirror is visibly becoming more and more weathered.

One can even clearly see a little bit of gray dust-like tiny particles flying out from the Infinite Mirror, carried away by the wind, and then dissipated in the air.

A spirit had been hidden in the Infinite Mirror for almost a whole lifetime. It can be said that Li Fan knew the Infinite Mirror better than the original spirit, Sun Luyao. Therefore, he was able to distinguish the changes that had occurred in the Infinite Mirror.

"This is the process of digestion of the Xuanhuang Heaven and Earth..."

Although the body of the Infinite Mirror gradually melted, the power of the derivation law contained in it remained. Obviously, the energy level of the immortal weapon was still higher than that of the current Xuanhuang Realm. Therefore, the Xuanhuang Realm did not have the ability to digest it completely.

Time and space continued to evolve at a speed of tens of millions of times. The ancient Wuliang Mirror began to decay, and only the mirror surface remained after being corroded.

Until finally it completely dissipated, leaving only a shadow floating quietly in the air.

As if sensing the power of the free immortal weapon's laws, inexplicable changes occurred in the Xuanhuang Realm.

Although this change is almost invisible and intangible, with Li Fan's current strength and understanding of the Xuanhuang Realm, he can clearly see everything happening before his eyes.

A transparent human body came to the shadow of the Infinite Mirror. The passage of time and the changes of the world seemed to have no effect on it.

The transparent body floated closer, gradually overlapping with the phantom, as if it had swallowed the Infinite Mirror into its stomach.

Then, like ripples on the water, the human body slowly merged into the mysterious world and disappeared from Li Fan's sight.

From beginning to end, this human body never looked at Li Fan directly.

It was as if taking away the power of the Infinite Mirror Law was the only thing He cared about.

"The spirit of heaven and earth, a type never seen before."

"And unlike all other souls of heaven and earth, after seeing it, the cultivators did not even have the desire to greedily devour it..."

Li Fan put away his world-destroying magical power and looked into the distance.

He seemed to see that at this moment in a corner of the Xuanhuang Realm, the transparent human body was attached to the body of a newborn baby.

As the baby grows, a new Wuliang Mirror is about to be born. However, it is no longer a fairy weapon, but a rare item from the Xuanhuang Realm!
Under normal circumstances, it would take thousands or even tens of thousands of years for Xuanhuang Realm to complete the entire set of digestion and transformation steps. But with the blessing of Li Fan's World Destruction Transformation, it took less than half a day to complete the process.

Logically speaking, helping Xuan Huang Jie complete the swallowing of the immortal weapon should increase his favorability a little. But Li Fan waited for a long time, but still did not notice the increase in Xuan Huang Jie's goodwill.

After thinking for a moment, Li Fan suddenly realized that the changes in the world were actually a kind of "lifespan" consumption for the Xuanhuang Realm. This back and forth could be considered as a balance of merits and demerits.

Li Fan actually didn't care about this. Anyway, the growth of Xuanhuang Realm's strength was real. Every bit of growth in Xuanhuang Realm's strength would be reflected in the Xuanhuang Immortal Soul in the future. And he would always be the final beneficiary.

Retracting his gaze, Li Fan vaguely felt that as the power of the Infinite Mirror Law was being integrated into the Xuanhuang Realm, a qualitative change from nothing to something was also brewing.

"The method of deduction of the Infinite Mirror does not yet exist in the Xuanhuang Realm. Once the Xuanhuang Realm is devoured and used for its own purposes..."

"It's interesting that the Heavenly Dao can foresee the future."

The Heavenly Dao should have records of most of the past and present events in the Xuanhuang Realm. With sufficient information, the accuracy of deducing the future may be even stronger than that of the immortal artifact Wuliang Mirror in its heyday.

"This is the highest realm of deduction mentioned in Tai Yan Sect's [Yan Tian Jiu Juan], using heaven's calculations to replace human calculations."

"For the Xuanhuang Realm, devouring immortal artifacts is not just a boost in strength. It is more of a completion of the laws. Every time an immortal artifact is devoured, he is one step closer to the real immortal world." A trace of insight suddenly surged into Li Fan's heart.

……

Ten days later.

Daxuan Lundaotai.

Master Yin, Baihua, Qiaogong, and Xu Ke have already arrived, all waiting for Li Fan to come.

The determination to pursue the truth eventually overcame the fear of unknown risks.

"The last time we made a round trip to the center of the starry sea, it took us nearly a month and a half. I don't know how long it will take to get to the foot of the high wall this time." Qiao Gong sighed.

"As the Saint Master said, the border of the Star Sea is even more dangerous. Perhaps it is normal to travel back and forth for several years." Baihua frowned.

Master Yin smiled and said, "Think positively. Maybe he will encounter some disaster on the way and won't be able to come back."

The skillful craftsmanship and the flowers are all speechless.

As several people were discussing, Li Fan appeared on the pulpit.

He did not lead the group out directly, but sat upright with a solemn expression and began to preach.

This time, what Li Fan taught was "Swordsmanship".

"There are three swordsmen in the world."

"At the lowest level, hold the iron to forge your will, and hold the sharp weapon to cultivate your body. Sharpen your mind with the sword, and your body and sword will be in harmony. Control the sword to kill the enemy, and your body and sword will be in harmony."

"The sword in the hand is the sword in the heart; the sword in the heart can become the sword in the hand. Everything in the world can become a sword as long as the mind is concerned."

"The best is the state of no sword and no self."

……

After summarizing the differences among the three at the beginning, Li Fan began to explain each level in detail.

Below the pulpit, the crowd became increasingly fascinated by the speech.

Even the four skilled workers were attracted by Li Fan's sermon and temporarily forgot their mission to go to the frontier of Xinghai.

As Li Fan's sermon progressed, many strange phenomena appeared in the sky. Not to mention the ones that appeared at regular intervals during each sermon.

The most eye-catching thing was the countless swords flying in from all over Daxuan.

They were all ordinary iron, but at this moment, they were able to fly in the air. It was as if it was meeting the king or the holy teacher, hovering in the air, with the sword slightly bent, and slightly saluting.

More and more swords gathered, covering the sky and the sun, forming a forest of swords above the pulpit.

Thousands of swords stood silently, as if they were also listening to Li Fan's preaching.

"Without a sword in hand, the heart does not exist; without form, the mind is always there..."

Seven days later, Li Fan finished his last sentence.

Thousands of flying swords roared in unison, all bursting out with dazzling light.

When the sword light dissipated, the monks on the pulpit were shocked to find that the thousands of swords had all disappeared!

Most of the cultivators were confused and thought that all the flying swords in the sky had returned.

Only some monks with extraordinary comprehension stared at the sky in a daze, as if they had realized something.

"Without sword, there is no me, the sword's will lasts forever..." Xu Ke muttered to himself, and spread out his palm, on which the shadow of a long sword suddenly appeared.

The other three people looked at this scene with a stern look in their eyes.

Just as they were about to exchange ideas, they suddenly heard Li Fan's voice: "We are almost ready, it's time to set off."

“You should know that we are uncertain whether we will live or die, so we must not give up halfway.” Li Fan finally confirmed to them.

Everyone nodded to show that they understood.

"sword……"

"rise……"

A breeze blew by, and the shadow of the wooden sword, which looked like a giant flying boat, had already enveloped Master Yin and the others.

Li Fan stood on the tip of the sword, pointing in the air forward.

The surrounding scene suddenly changed. Countless twisted lines were stretched out and rushed towards the back. Then the light merged and changed into various twisted colors.

The phantom of the wooden sword separated Master Yin and the others from the bizarre scene around them.

Even though they could feel that the wooden sword was rapidly carrying them towards the depths of the starry sea, the people inside the wooden sword's phantom did not notice the change in their own speed.

Outside the shadow of the wooden sword, the light and shadow that appeared suddenly turned dark. The color was gone, leaving only a distorted shadow. Master Yin's face changed slightly: "Has it left the influence range of the Immortal Ruins?"

In response to him, the other three people looked shocked.

"Didn't they say that the road ahead would be full of dangers..." Qiao Gong asked in an inexplicable tone.

They could vaguely sense that the phantom of the wooden sword was charging forward across the sea of ​​stars.

Ignoring the hidden power of disaster, he continued to accelerate and speed up, rushing towards his destination.

"Without the sword, there is no me. Without the sword, there is no me..."

"The sword does not exist in the world. Even the power of the catastrophe that destroys the starry sea can do nothing about things that do not exist!" Xu Ke stared at the shadow of the wooden sword, his eyes becoming brighter and brighter.

At this time, Li Fan's voice sounded again: "The fact that you can choose to go deep into the starry sky with me has already proved your courage and faith."

"You have all managed to survive until now... it is best to avoid unnecessary sacrifices."

"Holy Master..." The four people looked at Li Fan's back as he stood on the tip of the sword with complicated expressions.

Li Fan didn't care what the four people behind him were thinking.

He was experiencing this sword-controlling technique which had already reached its peak.

Ten days ago, after helping Xuanhuang Jie digest the Wuliang Mirror, Li Fan went to the ruins of Tianjian Sect.

In the center of the sword tomb, the wooden sword seemed to have become different because of the transformation of the Xuanhuang Realm in this world.

Compared to when Mr. Bai casually created it thousands of years ago, the wooden sword at this moment may have become more profound after experiencing the precipitation of time.

“No one knows exactly how many immortal artifacts the Xuanhuang Realm Heavenly Dao has devoured.”

"Perhaps there is some power of laws in it that complements the Xuanhuang Sword Dao..."

Li Fan had come into contact with and sensed this wooden sword in the Fallen Fairyland and in reality.

The insights gained from it are always different.

Especially now.

After coming into close contact with the power of immortals and personally setting up the world-destroying immortal formation, looking at this wooden sword again, new ideas emerged in Li Fan's mind.

“The more you know, the more you see.”

"Or we can say that the projection of the sword from top to bottom on the Xuanhuang Realm has become more vivid."

Li Fan meditated in the sword tomb for seven days. He did not take away the black sword in the sword tomb, but allowed it to continue to be influenced by the wooden sword.

After returning, he imparted all his insights on the pulpit.

Finally, it transformed into a magical power, carrying Master Yin and others, and flew rapidly towards the border of the Star Sea.

This phantom without sword and without self is not just the way of sword.

Instead, Li Fan incorporated the [Change of Truth and Falsehood] based on his own experience, the [Hide from the World and Conceal the Void] restriction taught by the Heavenly Doctor, and the golden lock of the floating starry sky formation.

Not only is its speed extremely fast, it can also be between reality and illusion, and almost ignore the remaining power of the True Immortal Seal characters on the road.

However, after all, he has not yet truly reached the realm of being able to transform reality into illusion. The wooden sword shadow will definitely still be affected by some of the remaining power of the True Immortal.

It was just that the speed of the wooden sword's phantom flight was too fast, even faster than the speed at which the residual power of the True Immortal could take effect, thus creating the illusion of running recklessly and unimpeded.

As the sword leader, Li Fan could clearly sense that the energy maintaining the wooden sword's phantom was being rapidly consumed.

If he hadn't used the Five Elements Great Cave Heaven and Xuanhuang Destroying World as his foundation, his foundation would have been so strong that it would have been almost as large as several previous immortal cultivation worlds. I'm afraid he would never have been able to hold on until now.

“Looking at the entire Xuanhuang Realm, apart from the Heavenly Doctor who teaches the Dharma, even the immortals in the Five Elders Association may not be able to use this sword.” Looking at the rapidly changing starry sky and time around him, Li Fan couldn't help but feel a little proud.

With the help of the wooden sword, the journey that originally took half a year was now only two or three days, and the goal was already in sight.

After seeing several familiar relics floating in the dead sea of ​​stars, Li Fan controlled himself to slow down.

“Is this the Sea of ​​Relics that the Holy Master mentioned?” The skilled worker narrowed his eyes and looked ahead.

"It should be the result of the accumulation of remnant items from various worlds after the destruction of the immortal world in the past." Baihua recognized some of the decorative objects and introduced them to everyone.

Master Yin remained silent after arriving here, pressing his temples from time to time, his face gloomy and uncertain.

The shadow of the wooden sword slowly shuttled through the sea of ​​relics. Not long after, it had left the area.

In front of everyone, a larger cluster of ruins suddenly appeared in their field of vision.

It almost filled the entire field of vision, even if it was just ruins and wreckage.

The accumulation of corpses from countless worlds still makes everyone feel palpitations.

The shadow of the wooden sword fell into deathly silence.

At this moment, the shadow of the wooden sword suddenly stopped.

"Ok?"

Everyone woke up.

But Li Fan flew out of the phantom and began to set up the formation in an open area between the Sea of ​​Relics and the Great Wall of the Remaining World.

The golden lines seemed to come alive, quickly drawing various patterns in the air.

After shining for just a moment, it disappeared into darkness.

One item after another flew out from Li Fan's body and merged into the formation.

One can tell that this formation is extraordinary at a glance.

Everyone was so close, yet they didn't sense any fluctuations from the formation.

"Fellow Daoist Yin, what kind of formation is this?" Qiao Gong asked quietly, puzzled.

Master Yin shook his head, but his eyes were not on where Li Fan was setting up the formation.

Instead, it drifts towards the distant ruins of the Great Wall from time to time.

Li Fan had no scruples at all and set up the formation in front of everyone. Naturally, it was the immortal formation that he had just learned from the original soul of Ji Yuzhen, the King of Xuantian Sect, not long ago.

The end of the world is just around the corner!

Ji Yuzhen himself was not familiar with formations. He had only seen the Tianya Zhichi formation several times under the leadership of King Xuantian.

But with the help of the Final Disintegration Disc, Li Fan was able to roughly restore it.
