Chapter 1265 Xuanhuang Island
"Senior, I can't seem to bear it anymore!" The painful voice of Sun Luyao, the infinite mirror spirit, came faintly from the mirror.
"Hmph, you can't die." Li Fan seemed not to have heard it. Not only did he not stop the Wuliang Mirror from spying, but he also cast a spell to control it to emit dim light towards the vortex of the Rift Realm again.
After he finished speaking, many patterns suddenly appeared on the infinite mirror, perfectly overlapping with the cracks on the mirror, and in the clear light, the wounds were slowly healed.
"Uh..." Sun Luyao made a contradictory sound that seemed both painful and comfortable.
Li Fan just narrowed his eyes and stared at the fragmented images that kept flashing in the mysterious light of the Infinite Mirror.
"Let me see what happened here."
In fact, the Creation Slate records the story of the monster clan splitting the world and leaving.
However, when a powerful force capable of destroying the world erupted from Nanming Mountain, the Xuanhuang Slate lost its ability to monitor the area.
When the energy riot slowly subsided and the place became visible again, the former holy mountain of the demon race and all the demon beasts had disappeared. Only a horrible hollow wound remained, which had not healed for thousands of years.
Li Fan used the Infinite Mirror this time to find out whether the demon race had successfully escaped through the rift. But more importantly, he was trying to analyze the method of rifting the world.
The space was pierced by unimaginable powerful force, even breaking through the barrier of high walls and connecting to the outside of the sea of stars.
At this moment, it was as if a seal was struck in time and space, leaving a mark.
Even though time flies and thousands of years pass in the blink of an eye, this mark still remains in time and space itself and has not yet dissipated.
By studying and analyzing this mark of the world rift, perhaps it would be possible to reproduce the only two cases of the Xuanhuang Realm successfully escaping from the Dark Star Sea.
Just like a black and white picture with an intermittent signal, Li Fan vaguely saw Di Yi reveal his true form and make the final mobilization of the monster clan from the scene that flashed by.
We also saw that there were still many monsters watching from afar and did not follow them to leave.
The screen flickered, and the giant python coiled around Nanming Mountain let out a deafening roar. It wailed and twisted, and its body emitted a blazing light. It seemed as if something was breaking out of its body.
However, Emperor Yi, the Lord of Ten Thousand Monsters, just watched coldly. It was not until the giant python fell powerlessly onto the sea surface, causing huge waves, that Li Fan could see clearly what was inside its body.
It turned out to be a key that had been magnified countless times!
Ripples suddenly appeared on Emperor Yi's body, which was constantly squirming and looked like a gray mass of flesh. After a moment, an emotionless face emerged from his body.
This face seems to have magical powers.
Not only in Emperor Yi's body, but also those other heads and faces that were originally ready to move became quiet and silent in an instant.
Around the Nanming Holy Mountain, countless monsters that had been watching could not help but lower their heads and avoid looking at him. They dared not look directly at him.
Even thousands of years later, Li Fan, who traveled through time and space and peeked at his image through the mark of the rift, felt an instinctive fear in his heart as if he was facing a superior being the moment he saw that face.
"This is..." It was just a body made up of a split spirit. Under the pressure of the divine face, it became unstable for a moment. After all, it was an illusion from thousands of years ago, and Li Fan's background was not comparable to that of ordinary people. After a short period of adaptation, the invisible pressure quietly dissipated.
In the mark of the rift world, the subsequent scene appeared in Li Fan's eyes again.
After Emperor Yi's true form revealed itself, the huge key with a bronze metallic luster instantly shrank.
Then, under the control of Di Yi, it flew straight to the Nanming Holy Mountain towering into the sky.
The top of the key was pointed at the peak of Nanming Mountain.
Dazzling spots of light appear at the point of contact.
The uniform light spread from that small dot to the key body and Nanming Mountain in an instant.
As if some kind of certification had been reached, a moment later, the key and the holy mountain were bathed in light and became vague and invisible.
And around the holy mountain, there are countless monsters, including Emperor Yi.
They were also wrapped in bursts of white light, and turned into silk threads and flew into the Tongyao Nanming Mountain.
And then...
A terrifying light like the Big Bang of heaven and earth erupted from it.
Blocked from all prying eyes.
Even though Li Fan tried to endure the pain in his soul and continued to peer, all he could see was endless white light.
At this time, the Wuliang Mirror had really reached its limit.
It seemed to have lost its spiritual power in an instant, and it could not even maintain its levitation and fell from the sky. The infinite mirror spirit Sun Luyao also completely fainted and was silent.
Li Fan pondered and put away the Wuliang Mirror.
The scene I just saw kept replaying in my mind.
"Earlier in the Meteoric Immortal Realm, Emperor Yi explained the principle of how Nanming Mountain could successfully split the world. He said that this place is the edge of the sky, the corner of the sea, and the end of the world. Therefore, it gathers a lot of energy that has been free and accumulated since the opening of the Xuanhuang Realm..."
"Now it seems that it is not as simple as He said. It is difficult to break through the realm by relying on the power of Xuanhuang Realm itself, let alone a little bit of wandering energy."
"The bronze key and the divine face should be the key for them to break through the boundary and escape."
Li Fan suddenly remembered the secret that the Holy Emperor had heard from the Du'e Sect in this life.
"The Du'e Sect found a mysterious power from the crack in the Tianjian Sect's world that can be used to monitor the Xuanhuang Realm. Once implanted, even the Dharma Transmission cannot do anything about it. And here, in the second world crack, a mysterious existence that transcends the Xuanhuang Realm itself has also appeared."
"The Xuanhuang Realm is extremely special even among the many ancient immortal cultivation realms. These two places seem to touch upon the key."
While thinking, Li Fan's figure floated away and he left the vortex of the world rift with the Infinite Mirror.
"The principles of the world are that no matter how things change, they remain essentially the same. The fact that they specially use the position of [Xuanhuang Great Celestial Venerable] to supervise and inspect the Xuanhuang Realm shows that in the eyes of the Immortal Realm, the Xuanhuang Realm definitely has its unique value for use."
"Just like the thousands of islands in the Congyun Sea, only those islands with special products will be guarded by monks sent by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and built with island protection formations."
"Change your way of thinking and simplify things. The so-called Xuanhuang Great Celestial Venerable is equivalent to Xuanhuang Guardian. And Xuanhuang Realm is equivalent to one of the islands in the lower world star sea."
“And the mysterious power used to refine the World-Viewing Divine Eye discovered by the Du’e Sect, as well as the Nanming Sacred Mountain opened by Emperor Yi with the bronze key, are probably part of the Xuanhuang Realm’s [Island Protection Formation].”
"It is not the power from the Xuanhuang Realm itself, but the power from the upper realm."
"However, with the occurrence of the great calamity in the immortal world, this protective formation has also been affected to a certain extent."
"Back then, the [Floating Starry Sky Formation] that King Xuan Tian derived from the many classics he obtained in the Ascension Channel might have been modified and constructed on the basis of this protective formation. Otherwise, it is really hard to imagine how a half-immortal body, relying only on the materials of the Xuanhuang Realm, could build an immortal-level formation that could cross a high wall."
"and……"
Li Fan's flying speed was getting faster and faster, and the many clues in the fog of the past were instantly connected together.
"The Floating Starry Sky Array can cross the endless void and lock onto other immortal cultivation realms in the depths of the distant starry sea."
"My formation skills, with the help of the Final Dissociation Disc, have already reached the limit of the mortal realm. Moreover, I already know three of the Mysterious Origin Spirit Formation. Even for the immortal-level formations, I have only just begun to understand them. Even so, I still cannot figure out how the Floating Starry Sky Formation uses the golden chain to accurately lock onto the endless sea of stars."
"I previously thought that it was because I was not good enough at formations. This was the reason why the deduction of the Final Disintegration Disc always failed. King Xuantian was a great scholar, with a semi-immortal body and formation skills that were even better than the Final Disintegration Disc..."
"Now that I think about it, maybe I overlooked an important factor."
A gleam of light flashed in Li Fan's eyes.
"What if those locked immortal realms and the Xuanhuang Realm have some common factors? Relying on the mutual induction, the golden chains of the Floating Starry Sky Array can accurately lock them one by one."
"That means there is a great protective formation!"
"Baihua once said that even the original Xuanhuang Realm is a behemoth among the many immortal cultivation realms. Her hometown, the Wansheng Realm, is only the size of a state."
"Let's compare the Xuanhuang Realm to an island in the sea of clouds. It's like the Liuli Island I visited before, a larger existence. The other worlds and caves captured by him are smaller existences in the sea of stars."
"Hmm... maybe later, as these worlds were slowly sucked towards the Immortal Ruins, the Xuanhuang Realm captured some of them along the way. After the Ten Great Immortal Sects were destroyed, it was the Chuanfa and Tianyi who took over and patched things up, creating the current prosperity of the Xuanhuang Realm."
"If my speculation is correct, then the areas that were initially captured by the Xuanhuang Realm definitely had a protective formation."
Thinking of this, Li Fan seemed to realize something and his thoughts paused slightly.
In the beginning, the Xuanhuang Realm was simply capturing and annexing, rather than dismembering and reorganizing like it is today.
Therefore, the areas that were initially swallowed should actually be outside the Xuanhuang Realm.
"The edge of the sky, the corner of the sea. The edge of the world."
"In addition, Emperor Yi's words seemed to hint that the Xuanhuang monster came from the outside world..."
"I see."
Li Fan suddenly understood.
"It seems that the bronze key that Emperor Yi used did not open the protective formation that originally belonged to the Xuanhuang Realm..."
Li Fan's thoughts raced.
In fact, there may be a simple way to verify his speculation.
In the small world where the golden skull and the "Mei" character were discovered, there was a clear memory of the golden chain of the Floating Starry Sky Array breaking through the boundary and locking the world.
Just go find out more.
Thinking of this, Li Fan changed direction and headed straight towards the target destination.
On the way, Sun Luyao slowly woke up.
"Senior, where are we going?"
Without any complaints about Li Fan's previous extreme labor exploitation, Sun Luyao just asked with some confusion.
"Let's go to an interesting place. Take this opportunity to have a good rest. You may need to take action next." Li Fan said calmly.
When Sun Luyao heard this, the shadow in the mirror couldn't stop shaking.
"Senior, I feel very weak now..." After a moment of silence, Sun Luyao mustered up the courage to say.
What responded to him was a mass of thick golden substance.
Sun Luyao's attention was immediately attracted as if he had seen some priceless treasure.
He knew that this was the magical substance that Li Fan had used before to attract the annihilating wind disaster out of the Infinite Mirror.
It had a fatal and irresistible instinctive attraction to him, and his intuition told him that this thing was a great tonic for him.
So Sun Luyao immediately shut up and wolfed down the essence of source power.
After a moment, he was refreshed and the feeling of weakness disappeared.
"snort."
After savoring the wonderful taste, Sun Luyao still wanted to please Li Fan and ask for some more.
But he was brought back to reality by the other party's cold snort.
I didn't dare to make any more requests at the moment, I just hoped to get some rewards after completing the next task.
Not long after, after passing through a long void passage, Li Fan finally came to the dead world full of ashes again.
"Go ahead!"
At Li Fan's signal, the Wuliang Mirror once again released bursts of faint light.
Compared to the previous time at the Great Whirlpool of the Rift, this time's spying and analysis was undoubtedly much smoother.
Very easily, the image in the dim light restored this place.
A vibrant world.
A big river gives birth to endless lives.
After the creatures die, they are reborn in the river, forming a perfect cycle.
…
"Not these, go deeper."
Just as Sun Luyao was immersed in the scene, Li Fan's voice came.
Sun Luyao was distracted for a moment and increased the intensity of the Wuliang Mirror's surveillance.
The lively scene became fragmented and blurred.
The river also became like starlight, dreamy and illusory.
Beneath all appearances, crisscrossing lines suddenly appeared on the infinite mirror surface.
"ah!"
However, the moment I saw these lines, it was as if some kind of restriction had been triggered.
Sun Luyao only felt an irresistible burning sensation suddenly coming over him.
It was as if the Infinite Mirror was being burned by flames and would melt at any moment.
"Senior, save me!"
Sun Luyao couldn't help but howl.
Li Fan, however, remained indifferent and poured the golden source energy essence into Sun Luyao, forcing him to endure the severe pain and continue to spy.
Amid Sun Luyao's screams, the foundation stone hidden beneath the ruins of the world began to slowly emerge.
Unlike the small world that had turned into ruins, the lines were intermittent and seemed to have suffered some kind of blow, with a layer of decay.
But it still retains its original form.
As more and more lines were revealed, the outline of a formation emerged in Li Fan's mind.
At the same time, in the Yanfa Jue space.
The Final Dissociation Disc temporarily stopped all other tasks and began to record and analyze the fragmentary lines of the formation.
“Save me…”
However, the remains of the formation were too huge, and the progress of the spying was less than one-tenth. Sun Luyao was already dying and about to perish.
