When Li Fan transmigrated into a new world, his life seemed unremarkable. He was moderately well-off, with a wife and children, but nothing extraordinary. Everything changed upon his death, when he...
Chapter 524 The Dream Will Finally Awaken
"Before I told you, Junior Brother, no one else knew about this except the Sect Master and me."
"So, Junior Brother, you must keep this secret for me."
Senior Sister Zhao said in a gloomy tone.
A sense of fatal crisis suddenly surged into Li Fan's heart.
In an instant, many thoughts flashed through his mind. His body suddenly stiffened for a moment, but soon returned to normal.
He stroked his sister's smooth, white back and said as if it was a matter of course, "This is natural. I was shocked when I heard the news just now. I found it a little unbelievable."
"Not to mention the elders. If they knew about this, they would definitely come out collectively to stop it."
"Even with the help of the Sect Leader, our strength is still too weak compared to those old guys. We still need to accumulate strength, keep a low profile, and strive to make the final decision." Li Fan put himself in the shoes of Senior Sister Zhao and gave her advice.
Senior Sister Zhao just lay quietly in Li Fan's arms, not answering or moving.
As if falling asleep.
"By the way, Senior Sister. Why did Sect Leader Ji suddenly come up with the idea of passing the position of Sect Leader to you?" After a long silence, Li Fan finally couldn't help but ask.
"Who knows? The thoughts of these old antiques are always so unpredictable. Maybe he has a chance of immortality and doesn't want to be involved in the mess of Da Dao Sect anymore?" Senior Sister Zhao changed her lying position, speaking lazily.
"After all, the world is becoming increasingly chaotic. In the eyes of the immortal realm masters, these ten great immortal sects are more of a hindrance than actual value..."
Senior Sister Zhao's voice became smaller and smaller, until it was barely audible.
Seeing that the other party had no intention of saying anything further, Li Fan did not dare to ask any further questions.
Just start practicing again with both hands.
Indulge in pleasure for a moment.
——
Li Fan knew that ever since Senior Sister Zhao walked out of the sect's main hall that day, she had become a little different.
It's just a vague intuition in my heart, without any actual evidence.
In the following daily life, he did not notice anything unusual about his senior sister who had been with him for a hundred years.
but……
Li Fan was still very sure that some changes were happening to her bit by bit.
However, where does this lingering sense of crisis in my heart come from?
Even if Senior Sister Zhao has been hiding something from me, it seems that her feelings for me are not fake.
She became the leader of the Da Dao Sect, and she herself became the leader's Taoist partner.
You must know that this is not some ordinary small sect, but a great and prestigious sect that is well-known throughout the world of immortal cultivation.
By then, I will be second to none and above everyone else.
Even though I had dreamed of this position before, I never dared to hope for it.
Now, with the help of Senior Sister Zhao, wealth and glory are within your reach!
What went wrong?
Li Fan subconsciously felt that he seemed to have forgotten something important.
But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't remember.
I had to live a normal life while conducting secret investigations.
Time flies.
Another three years passed.
Over the past three years, through the joint efforts of many talented monks from the ten sects of the Immortal Path, they finally found a way to eliminate the [Immortal Plague] that was lingering in the world.
Thus, a large-scale "disinfection" operation began.
In order to ensure their future survival, every surviving sect must send monks to various parts of the Xuanhuang Realm to carry out the task of eliminating the [Immortal Plague].
Li Fan and Senior Sister Zhao, the duo who had always been responsible for the hard labor, were naturally not sent down the mountain by Ji Changxi because Senior Sister Zhao had already been confirmed to be the next leader.
Instead, he sent out another group of five true disciples.
Li Fan also benefited from this and stayed in the sect to enjoy a peaceful life.
As time passed, even though he was inside the mountain gate, Li Fan could feel that the environment of the Xuanhuang Realm seemed to be getting better.
"After a great disaster, there will be a great peace. I hope the catastrophe of heaven and earth will pass soon, so that we can welcome the prosperity of cultivation again!"
In the sect, Li Fan could hear disciples making such wishes from time to time.
[Immortal Plague] gradually dissipated, and Senior Sister Zhao also became slowly busy.
It seems that she is about to officially take over the position of the head of the Da Dao Sect. She has been participating in various meetings recently.
Those attending the meeting were all respected elders in the Da Dao Sect.
I guess it's not easy to convince them.
Li Fan often saw some elders leaving the meeting with angry faces and walking away in anger.
However, Senior Sister Zhao told Li Fan that he didn't need to worry.
More and more elders have been persuaded to let her take over the position of headmaster.
"Soon, I will be able to become the true leader of the Dao Sect."
Senior Sister Zhao smiled and said so.
Li Fan was not worried at all about this matter.
Instead, the fear that had always been in my heart became even stronger.
It's not just Sister Zhao.
A kind of creepy, yet indescribable and inexplicable change seemed to be taking place in the entire Da Dao Sect.
Although he was able to sense possible unusual phenomena, Li Fan was still unable to find out the truth.
As a result, Li Fan, who was helpless, became more and more anxious and furious.
Senior Sister Zhao, who was sleeping next to him, naturally noticed this emotion in him.
Fortunately, Li Fan simply attributed it to the increasingly frequent falling objects in the sky.
It was originally thought that after the [Immortal Plague] was cleared, the cultivators would be able to live a peaceful life for a while.
Who would have thought that not long after, another strange change occurred between heaven and earth.
Before, the "death declaration" that Li Fan and Senior Sister Zhao had seen would only occur randomly in the sky when a cultivator died.
But now, this "randomness" is becoming a kind of "necessity".
However, the scope and influence of the vision are also gradually becoming stronger.
When a Hedao monk died, the resulting scene was enough to cover the sky for tens of thousands of miles in radius.
What is even more terrifying is that the throbbing and uneasiness in the hearts of all the monks who witnessed the "Death Declaration" of heaven and earth were constantly being aroused.
Those monks who had long given up the idea of practicing and just wanted to muddle through the days and end the rest of their lives.
Day after day, I kept seeing the scene that happened after the monks above me died.
Different emotions began to grow in their hearts.
The rabbit dies and the fox mourns, unwilling, confused, angry...
There were also cultivators in the Dao Sect who died due to the end of their lifespan.
A strange atmosphere slowly began to spread within the sect.
It was under such circumstances that Senior Sister Zhao officially took over and became the head of the Da Dao Sect.
There were a total of seventeen elders, and they all agreed with the decision of the former head, Ji Changxi.
Many disciples who were ready to watch the show dropped their jaws in shock.
At the same time, Li Fan's uneasiness reached its peak.
