Chapter 1104: Heaven and Man Have Different Paths
"From the time the principles of heaven and earth began to show signs of being reversed, to the time he succeeded in reversing the principles and attained immortality, the total period was no more than ten years."
"Normally, a Hedao cultivator wouldn't even complete the first step of going against reason, but this one has already completed the promotion."
“I almost doubt whether this Rebirth Heavenly Venerable is a survivor from the outside world, a great monk who is already very close to the realm of immortality. That’s why he can be so successful.” The tone of the Dharma Preacher Zhou was quite horrified.
"An outsider?" After hearing his words, Li Fan fell into deep thought for some reason.
“But fortunately, this Heavenly Venerable does not seem to have any intention of intervening in the dispute in the Xuanhuang Realm. He has not taken the initiative to contact either us or the Five Elders Council. As for the impact of reversing life and death, we are still evaluating it. However, it is foreseeable that both sides may become more and more cautious about starting a war in the future.” The Dharma Transmitter Zhou said with some emotion.
Li Fan also nodded in agreement.
Don’t think that the ability to reverse life and death and be able to resurrect infinitely seems to mean that human power is endless.
The key problem is that resurrection takes time.
The speed at which the Xuanhuang Realm itself breeds new life forms has been weakened to the extreme.
Once there is a major loss of personnel, it will take a long time to slowly recover. And as the number of resurrections increases, it is estimated that the resurrection time will also be longer and longer.
In the short term, nothing serious will happen.
I’m afraid that if this continues…
Li Fan suddenly said, "Fellow Daoist Zhou, you don't have to worry too much. If I remember correctly, didn't your Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance suppress and put many cultivators to eternal sleep? If you release them at the critical moment, you can still respond to emergencies."
Li Fan was talking about the cultivators who were suppressed by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance in the Eternal Immortal Wall, including those who were previously occupied by the millions of gods and demons he summoned using the [Three Disasters and Hundred Tribulations Bright God Method].
Although they have basically lost their self-awareness and are only an empty shell, they can still be used as cannon fodder.
The Dharma Master Zhou stared at Li Fan for a moment and did not answer.
He just ended the conversation with a polite smile.
"I have a feeling that the identity of this Heavenly Lord is..."
"Perhaps we can test and verify this together in the next life. This life won't add unnecessary variables."
Li Fan's eyes flashed, and he continued to return to his preparations.
…
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye it has been 24 years since we were anchored.
At the beach of Congyun, Li Fan appeared quietly and looked up into the distance.
"Because I had previously lied about the will of heaven, which angered the consciousness of heaven. The disaster of the red flame burning the sea in this life not only happened three years earlier, but the intensity of the red flame also increased."
He squinted his eyes and looked at the red figure that seemed to be dancing in the wind.
It was still a vague human figure, but different from the one seen before, who was isolated from the world and holding a flame in his hand.
In this life, Chi Yan sat cross-legged on auspicious clouds transformed from flames, his eyes filled with murderous intent as he stared at all the living beings in the clouds.
There was a dragon-like creature entwined around His body, staring at the sea of clouds below like it was looking at its prey.
Suddenly, as if they sensed Li Fan's gaze, they looked towards where Li Fan was.
But Li Fan was surrounded by a formation, so it was impossible for them to discover him.
"It's actually a completely new form that I have never seen before. It seems that my gradual arrangements over the years have caused Xuanhuang Tiandao to feel uneasy and alert." Li Fan smiled.
"But unfortunately, as long as I don't take action, no one in this world can predict what I am planning."
"All your resistance is in vain."
Li Fan did not stop the red flame from burning the sea, but just watched silently from the side.
In this life, he had no intention of luring Mo Sha out.
As the strongest among the spirits of heaven and earth, once Mo Sha is born, he will inevitably attract the attention of the immortals in the world.
Even now Li Fan is no longer afraid of them.
But the preparations he made to destroy the world could not be seen in public. In order not to affect his plan of driving the tiger to devour the wolf, keeping a low profile for the time being was the best option.
The reason why Li Fan came to Cong Yunhai today was to observe the specific changes that would occur in the Xuanhuang Realm during its self-purification process.
After reading Tianyi's "Record of Repairing the Sky", Li Fan has a new understanding of the incident of the red flame burning the sea.
Cong Yunhai comes from the Tianfa Realm, and does not belong to the Xuanhuang Realm. In the process of mutual integration of the two realms, various "rejection" reactions are bound to occur. The representative example is the various strange things that frequently occur in various places in Cong Yunhai.
Chi Yan's seemingly world-destroying behavior was actually intended to better promote the integration of Cong Yunhai and Xuanhuang Realm.
"The same thing, seen from a human perspective and from the perspective of the Way of Heaven, is completely different."
“There is no right or wrong answer.”
As the mutated red flame slowly accumulated strength, a layer of sealing force began to emerge across the border of the entire Congyun Sea, attempting to prevent any living creature from escaping.
At the last moment before the Heaven and Earth Prison was about to take effect, Li Fan saw a group of people hurriedly coming from the sea on a boat.
After finally reaching the shore, they hastily abandoned the boat and fled.
The leader was someone Li Fan knew well. It was Zhang Haobo!
In this life, Li Fan had no intersection with him. But he relied on his own premonition and his own luck.
Before the catastrophe came, he led his relatives and friends to escape.
"Haobo, you said we were living well on Liuli Island. Why did we have to leave our homeland and come to this strange continent?"
"Yes, Boss. Although I definitely believe in you and will always follow you, I am actually still very confused."
…
Faced with the doubts of people around him, Zhang Haobo's expression did not fluctuate much.
He simply unfolded the map, identified the location, and directed everyone in an orderly manner to continue on their journey.
As they walked, he said, "Haven't you noticed that there seem to be fewer people on the island recently? Ever since the last time a fairy master from the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance came."
"Not only our island, but also the other islands, including the immortal masters themselves, are quietly evacuating Congyun Sea."
"It's obvious that something big is going to happen." Zhang Haobo analyzed calmly, "Instead of staying in Cong Yunhai and waiting to die, it's better to come here and try your luck."
When the others heard this, they still looked incredulous.
Some even couldn't help but refute: "But isn't it said that under the mighty power of the Heavenly Lord, everyone can be resurrected from the dead? Since we can be resurrected, what is there to be afraid of?"
Zhang Haobo snorted coldly without explaining.
"If you are willing to follow me, please continue to follow. If you don't want to, the boat is still at the seaside and you can come back at any time." He just said indifferently.
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent and dared not say anything more.
