Chapter 1389: High Walls Count Visitors

Once, twice.

Li Fan scanned with his spiritual sense repeatedly, but he couldn't find the reason why the storyteller misjudged the immortal formation.

"Maybe it's not because of him..."

With a frown on his face, Li Fan began to search carefully for items nearby.

Finally, his eyes fell on the wake-up stick used by the storyteller.

"This thing..."

It looks ordinary, just a dark patch.

But when Li Fan held it in his hand, he felt a slight coolness in his soul the moment it touched.

"Ok?"

Since realizing the [Wuji Yingxu Method], Li Fan's soul has always been in a "perfect" state, always within the limit of what he can achieve. Even if there is any damage, it can be healed instantly through the power of the five elements and the circulation of Hunyuan.

The soul has become strong to a certain level, and only with the breakthrough of Li Fan's realm can it grow step by step. In fact, since he was promoted to the God Transformation Realm, until now, the strength of Li Fan's soul has not increased for a long time.

But now, as this refreshing feeling was absorbed into him, Li Fan actually felt that his soul was slowly solidifying and the bottleneck was loosening!
"Hiss... What kind of treasure is this wake-up stick?" Li Fan was surprised, but more importantly, he was alert.

You should know that Li Fan's spiritual strength is now comparable to that of the Xuanhuang Longevity Realm.

Having reached the limit, further progress is no longer possible through hard work alone.

"There are countless treasures hidden in the Immortal Boat. I haven't found anything useful to me, but there are still some hidden in the Xuanhuang Realm..."

Li Fan was very cautious and set up a magic formation to isolate the black wake-up wood.

Then he searched for the origin of the wake-up stick in the storyteller's mind.

It is not an heirloom without a history, but he made it by chopping down trees in his own yard and then polishing them.

Li Fan brought the storyteller named Ge Daoquan to his home.

In the courtyard, the lush green tree still stands tall.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Li Fan felt something was different.

It's like walking in the scorching sun for a long time in the hot summer, and suddenly walking into a shadow.

Just two words.

Comfortable!

If it were an ordinary cultivator, the contrast between the before and after would probably make him groan on the spot.

Li Fan took a deep breath, but remained vigilant as he gradually approached the tree.

The leaves suddenly moved without wind, making a rustling sound.

Li Fan has seen many strange trees in his previous reincarnation experiences.

In the Xuanhuang Realm, there are the three ancient trees of Xuanhuang, Wanling, Tianhua, and Dimai, as well as Ruomu, the source of all living things.

In the Xuanxian Boat, there is a sacred tree from the ancient Shenmu Sect.

But all of these are different from what we see before us.

Whether it is the three ancient trees or Ruomu.

They all have their own consciousness, and give Li Fan a weird and strange feeling as if plants and trees have become spirits.

But this one in the garden...

It is simply a tree.

Pure, but extraordinary.

The crisp sound of leaves colliding with each other slowly relaxed Li Fan's tense mood.

Li Fan didn't know the name of this tree.

At this moment, he no longer had the desire to get to the bottom of the matter. He just sat cross-legged under the tree, meditating as if he was seeking enlightenment.

Another breeze blew by, and dozens of emerald green leaves fell from the trees.

Like a stream of light, it flew into Li Fan's body.

Li Fan's eyes slowly closed.

When I opened my eyes again, ten days had passed.

Struggling and fighting through the reincarnations of a hundred generations, constantly worrying about the monsters with extraordinary abilities that suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and almost dying so many times that I am still scared...

All these things have eliminated all the fatigue accumulated in the mind.

It's like having a good night's sleep.

Both body and mind feel refreshed.

Li Fan stood up again and felt that his mental state was better than ever.

He stared at the tree in the yard.

The prosperity was gone, and in his eyes, there was nothing special about it.

It looks just like an ordinary tree.

Li Fan recalled the scenes that flashed by during his ten days of sleep.

From the memory of the trees themselves.

A streak of light streaked across the sky and fell near the trees.

It seemed to have lost its life force, and was motionless like a dead object. From the outside, it looked like a bloodstained, even half-burned ball.

As time goes by, the rotten skin on the surface of the ball slowly falls off.

A baby crawled out of it.

The baby did not cry just because he was just born. He just identified the left and the right, and then chose a direction and crawled slowly with a determined look.

It soon disappeared into the trees.

As for the outer skin of the sphere, it slowly dissolves in the wind, sun and rain, turns into nutrients and is absorbed by the trees.

……

There were horrible vibrations and flames everywhere in the sky, as if a brutal war was going on.

A figure came quietly near the tree.

"Why is it a tree?"

"Is there something wrong with the lock?"

"This damn place..."

In the man's hand stood a mechanical one-eyed man. The man's eyes glowed with golden light, pointing at the trees ahead.

There was a look of confusion and anxiety on his face. The man fiddled with it again, but the direction of the little man's gaze never changed.

The man cursed loudly and threw the mechanical doll to the ground in anger.

In the sky, it seemed that a monk noticed the existence of the man below.

The man's expression changed slightly, and he turned into a golden light and escaped.

After who knows how many days passed, the mechanical doll was already buried deep underground.

As the sun rises and the moon sets, the traces of the shocking battle have gradually been erased by time.

Occasionally, every mortal who passes by here will feel extremely at peace.

Then some people began to choose to settle down, and a mortal town appeared.

Ten generations have lived around this tree. Their mentality is surprisingly good. Although they live an ordinary life, they are content with what they have. Even if they encounter difficulties, they just smile and get through it.

Until the eleventh generation, in order to make a living, they chose to become storytellers. They happened to be short of a good wake-up stick, so they chopped one down from the tree at home.

……

With thoughts swirling in his mind, the first thing Li Fan did was to start digging around the tree.

Knowing that searching with spiritual sense was ineffective, Li Fan had no choice but to do it himself.

Not long after, the mechanical man that was thrown away by the man hundreds of years ago was found.

It has been buried in dust for many years, and now it is taken out again, and it still looks as good as new.

There is no trace of time.

But the third eye of the robot was closed for some reason.

No matter how he urged it, there was no response at all.

Li Fan played with the mechanical product and felt a familiar breath.

"Falling into the mortal world..."

Li Fan's heart began to grow heavy.

After pondering for a moment, Li Fan made a decision.

Take out the white circle [Fall into the Mortal Realm] and shine it at the mechanical man.

Coming to the mortal world, it is the entity condensation of the law of the great way [innate].

Over the past decade, Li Fan has been holding the white circle, recalling in his mind what appeared on the inscriptionless monument in his previous life.

I want to comprehend this great truth.

But what disappointed him was that no matter how hard he tried to comprehend it, he could not form his own understanding like the other True Immortal seal characters.

just like……

The principles of the world have all been brought together, and no one else can interfere with them.

Li Fan did not force it. Anyway, [Zhen Zheng] was already bound to the White Circle Luo Fanchen. At present, he could call it up anytime and anywhere and comprehend it with himself. The difference was not too big.

At this moment, the white circle of light locked onto the little mechanical man.

Under the cover of white light, the little man who should have been decomposed into nothingness was actually unharmed!
It's not that its status is still above the mortal world, and it is immune to the decomposition effects.

Instead, the light released by the white circle suddenly turned green after sensing the mechanical man.

The robot thus avoided the fate of being decomposed.

Illuminated by the white circle, the mechanical man who had been in a dormant state came back to life.

Flying, standing in Li Fan's palm, and then opened the third eye.

It kept turning as if it was searching for something.

But for some reason, the little man was spinning faster and faster.

It was like it was out of control, spinning wildly.

It turned into a spinning top.

"Is this, broken?"

Li Fan frowned slightly.

There was no stopping for the moment, so the little man continued to spin.

Li Fan first looked at the green trees in the courtyard.

"Hundreds of years ago, the villain pointed to this tree because this tree absorbed the outer skin that included the baby."

"That layer of substance should have the effect of awakening and enlightening people."

"However, as time goes by, especially after I absorbed it, the effect has become negligible, so I will continue to point it to other places."

"I don't know how much the effect has been weakened, but it still has such a miraculous effect on me. It's hard to imagine what it looked like at the beginning."

Li Fan's eyes flickered as he continued to think: "The white circle fell into the mortal world and was able to sense the little mechanical man. This is enough to confirm that they have the same origin..."

"So, my guess in my last life was correct. The one who was suppressed in the deepest part of the Nether Prison really came from outside the high wall."

Li Fan's expression suddenly became serious.

Yes, the man’s figure that appeared in the tree’s memory was exactly the skeleton that Li Fan saw in the deepest part of the Netherworld in his previous life.

The cultivator who calls himself Qin Zhuang!

"I searched his soul, but he didn't have any memory of what just happened."

"Obviously he used some secret method to conceal and falsify his experience. What a good trick!"

Li Fan secretly praised himself. He did not feel angry because of being fooled. Instead, he felt a little excited.

"He thought he did things perfectly, but he didn't expect that everything he did would leave traces."

"Under normal circumstances, this trace is not easy to find. But in front of the Xuanhuang Illusion Formation that shows equality for all beings, it is finally revealed!"

Li Fan recalled the figure of the baby crawling out of the ball in the tree's memory.

"Qin Zhuang... let's call him that for now."

"He came inside the high wall, apparently just to search for the baby."

"So, this baby also came from outside the high wall?"

"Qin Zhuang is related to the Tianjian Sect. Could it be that this baby is also a descendant of the Tianjian Sect?"

In an instant, thousands of questions emerged in Li Fan's mind.

In this life, the Immortal Alliance Prison has been shrouded by the Xuanhuang Living Beings Illusion Array. Qin Zhuang also inevitably fell into the illusion array.

But it seems that just like the result of the test in the previous life, Qin Zhuang will not reveal any flaws.

"Two consecutive failures..."

"It seems that the means to counter the illusion array outside the high wall have become very popular."

Li Fan pondered for a moment and was not in a hurry to capture and torture Qin Zhuang.

"If I can even be exempted from the Immortal Formation, other physical punishments should be useless."

"I must upgrade to more special means. Perhaps after I merge with the Dao, I will have new methods."

……

Gathering his thoughts, Li Fan looked at the spinning mechanical man again.

It still shows no signs of stopping.

Li Fan pondered and observed carefully.

“It looks like it’s rotating, but there are different gaps between each rotation.”

"This look is like..."

"We found many different targets at the same time. And these targets are distributed throughout the Xuanhuang Realm?"

Li Fan came to an incredible conclusion.

"Wait, could it be..."

In an instant, a thought suddenly appeared in Li Fan's mind.

In order to verify his guess, Li Fan held the mechanical man and slowly flew towards a place.

As they got closer, the villain turned towards Li Fan's direction more and more frequently.

Finally, Li Fan arrived at his destination.

Looking at the little man who finally stopped spinning, Li Fan smiled meaningfully.

On the plaque of the wooden house in front of him, there were three big words written.

Qianli Hall!
The third eye of the mechanical man was staring straight at Jiao Xiuyuan who had fallen asleep in the hall.

Then, it was as if all the energy was exhausted again.

Close slowly.

"That baby back then was actually him."

"Jiao Xiuyuan, from outside the high wall?"

"But he is not like Qin Zhuang, who is immune to the illusion array..."

Li Fan's thoughts were surging.

Then he closed his eyes and stood there for a moment, bringing the little mechanical man with him, into the [Xuanhuang All Beings] formation.

In the illusion, Jiao Xiuyuan was still doing his business as usual, shouting and doing business.

The moment Li Fan appeared in front of him, Jiao Xiuyuan seemed to sense something. His shouting stopped abruptly and his eyes fell on the mechanical man held by Li Fan.

Li Fan pretended to turn around and leave.

"My fellow Taoist, please stay!"

Jiao Xiuyuan shouted loudly and walked out to stop Li Fan.

"Since you're already here, why don't you just pass by the door? Come in and sit down." Jiao Xiuyuan said with a smile on his face, a hint of honesty revealed on his dark face.

With the absolute qualities of a businessman, he didn't even look at the little man in Li Fan's hand.

Li Fan put away the figurine and sighed, "It's an heirloom. I wanted to sell it. But after thinking it over, I decided to give up."

"Goodbye!" Li Fan bowed and was about to leave.

"Don't be in a hurry to leave, fellow Taoist. You have a friendly face to me. If you have any difficulties, just tell me. I will definitely help you if it is within my ability." Jiao Xiuyuan patted his chest, looking very righteous.

Li Fan hesitated for a moment, but finally sat down.

Jiao Xiuyuan quietly closed Qianlitang.

Focus on dealing with Li Fan alone.

"To be honest, I have been having a recurring dream since I was born."

Li Fan pondered for a moment, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he deeply attracted Jiao Xiuyuan's attention.

"In my dream, I saw a ray of light falling from the sky. A baby crawled out of the sphere..."

As Li Fan spoke, he carefully observed Jiao Xiuyuan's reaction.

Jiao Xiuyuan listened with great interest, but did not show any abnormality as Li Fan expected.

"I guess this dream may be related to the villain passed down in the family." Li Fan said again.
