Chapter 1051 Sacrifice to King Xuantian
"But this may not be a contradiction. The two half-immortal bodies both gained inspiration for breakthroughs during their fight with each other..."
"Everyone has the hope of truly shedding the shackles of being a mortal and achieving immortal status."
"Master Tiandu is imitating the immortals of Xianxu and resonating with them to attain enlightenment."
"As for King Xuantian..."
Li Fan recalled the broken memories from the Xuantian Sect's Dharma King.
"Something unexpected happened during the breakthrough process."
Li Fan also asked Dan Xuan about the whole process of how the ten immortal sects instantly overthrew the Xuantian Sect.
But this old guy was vague in his words.
He said he didn't know why, but he won the final victory of the war in a confused manner.
It was as if the Xuantian Sect also lost for no apparent reason.
"Dan Xuan must be hiding something. But what is certain is that a third force other than Xuan Tian Sect and the Ten Immortal Sects was involved in the demise of Xuan Tian Sect."
"He instigated the ten sects of the Immortal Path to rebel, and took advantage of the opportunity to eliminate the traitors from within the sect with the help of King Xuan Tian. This led to this war."
"The ultimate winner seems to be the Ten Immortal Sects that have gained control of the Xuanhuang Realm. But perhaps Xuantian King is their real target."
Li Fan's thoughts were in turmoil.
Considering Mo Rubin's fear of the faceless stone statue of the Immortal, a bold guess instantly came to Li Fan's mind.
"Is it possible that it was done by the fanatical followers of the Faceless Immortal?"
"The Xuantian King who is about to become an immortal is the sacrifice they offer to the Faceless Immortal..."
During the years when he used the Faceless Immortal Statue to spread [The Compassionate Immortal in the Red Dust], Li Fan could be said to have witnessed with his own eyes the faith of those cultivators, which grew from nothing to something and gradually became firm.
The essence of source power can transform decay into magic and realize the dreams of many monks.
Even in the Federation of All Worlds, which Li Fan casually created and did not manage with much effort, there are still people who are truly bewitched by the power of True Immortals and offer their absolute loyalty.
Not to mention, in the ancient times, the Xuantian Sect was filled with statues of the Faceless Immortal.
Even if King Xuantian discovered something was wrong later and removed the stone statue from the main altar of Xuantian Sect, how could the stone statue in the cultivator's heart be cleared away?
Following behind a half-immortal whose enlightenment is uncertain, or following behind a real immortal, or even a being at the level of [Nameless True Immortal]...
For most monks, they would probably choose the latter.
"So after Mo Rubin saw the stone statue I showed him, he lost his trust in me."
After restoring the possible truth, Li Fan continued to deduce the whereabouts of King Xuantian.
"There are two possibilities. One is that he has been regarded as a ripe fruit and swallowed by the Faceless Immortal. Since then, he has completely disappeared from the world. However, the power of the Faceless Immortal is still lingering in the Xuanhuang Realm, hoping that the next fruit will appear."
"The second is that the Faceless True Immortal's devouring failed. King Xuantian managed to escape. Those fanatical believers were taken out by the furious True Immortal, and their bodies were not left. They disappeared completely without anyone knowing."
"The second possibility is more likely. After all, in the current Xuanhuang Realm, apart from my branch, there is no other sect of the Faceless True Immortal. If the sacrifice was really successful, the Faceless True Immortal would have given them a reward. After tasting the sweetness, it is impossible for them to stop."
There was a slight gleam in Li Fan's eyes.
"The reason why Mo Rubin is so persistent in rescuing Tianxuan Jing is that he even cooperates with me in acting. I'm afraid he has long been convinced that King Xuantian is not dead. And Tianxuan Jing must know his whereabouts."
"I see."
"Since they disappeared from the headquarters of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance that day, they have not appeared in the Xuanhuang Realm. The Du'e Sect's paper figurines have not seen them, and they have not appeared in any place where the Tianxuan Mirror exists."
"It directly left the main space of the Tianxuan Mirror and appeared in another location."
“…”
"It seems that I have to find a way to meet with the Dharma Transmitter Zhou."
Li Fan's mind was once again focused on the white jade statue he had created.
Recording the sounds coming from the statue, and the vague impact.
Compare it with the cultivator's files in the Tianxuan Mirror.
Trying to find a breakthrough.
The vast majority of cultivators identified were on the wanted list of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and were nominally dead.
But after more than ten days of uninterrupted monitoring, Li Fan actually found a guy who was not wanted by the Immortal Alliance and still maintained the identity of a cultivator within the normal system.
"You are so brave, you are not afraid of implicating your family..."
Li Fan thought so in his heart, but after checking the life file of this monk, he found that this monk named You Chisong...
This may have been done intentionally.
You Chisong, a Nascent Soul cultivator.
The eldest son of the You family in Tianchen Prefecture.
Ten years ago, I had the opportunity to advance to the realm of Divine Transformation.
However, his father passed on the only "Changes in Heaven and Earth" that the family had heard of to You Chisong's younger brother, You Chibai.
His hope of becoming a god was shattered.
This move even received the support of the vast majority of the You family.
It’s just because You Chibai’s qualifications are much better than You Chisong’s.
It took You Chisong nearly a hundred years to conceive a baby, even though there were sufficient resources.
It only took more than 30 years to visit Chibai.
The gap was so huge that even You Chisong's mother could only sigh helplessly and comfort him.
But You Chisong refused to accept!
Because he was the first to discover the information about the impending changes in the world, and then reported it to his family.
It should have been his, but it was snatched away and given to his younger brother!
This is where the resentment arose in You Chisong's heart.
However, the bloody purge of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance gave him a chance to take revenge on his family.
By chance, he met the Dharma teacher Zhou Jiuren.
The moment he saw this group of "rebels", the strategy of destroying both himself and the enemy emerged in his mind.
He immediately knelt down and begged to join.
Seeing that You Chisong was so sincere, the Dharma teacher Zhou took the opportunity to bring him into his own private world.
Originally, You Chisong did intend to confirm his identity as a traitor and then take the initiative to report himself to the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
However, as he came into contact with the preacher Zhou and learned about her deeds.
As he spent more time with his companions, You Chisong's mentality gradually changed.
Compared with the great task of rectifying and purging the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and making the Dharma transmitters return to their original intentions, the trivial matter in the family that only concerns a Divine Transformation cultivator is not worth mentioning at all.
Before, I was blinded by hatred.
And now, he, You Chisong, has a loftier goal.
We must restore peace and order to the Xuanhuang Realm!
…
Li Fan combined the conversations he had heard with You Chisong over the past few days.
As well as his biographical information, it is easy to infer his mental journey.
