Chapter 1696: What the Three Saints Neglected
"Xuan... Hehe, now it's the [Eternal Return]."
"Now that the universe has returned to its place, the next step is to look forward to the next section of mountains and seas." The voice of Taiyi Saint interrupted Li Fan's thoughts.
For saints, there is no concept of rest.
Crossing the virtual world, using their bodies as bridges, and reconnecting mountains and seas. This is what they are persistently seeking.
"As mentioned before, after two reunions, we are now in this stretch of mountains and sea that has lasted for 339,800 years. However, the next journey may not be so easy."
All the saints knew in their hearts that Taiyi would not speak without a purpose, and they immediately listened attentively.
"According to my investigation, the time occupied by the virtual world ahead is almost 100,000 years. If the virtual world invades again and breaks this limit..."
"The connection between the mountain and the sea is completely severed. I'm afraid there is no hope of reconnecting."
"Firstly, we have to guard the mountains and seas. Facing Daoyan's invasion, we cannot retreat even a step."
"Secondly, there is no room for error in this Avengers operation. We can only succeed once. Otherwise, when the virtual world strikes back, even if we work together, we may not be able to withstand the raging storm."
Saint Lianshan waved his hand and showed the saints the scene of the continuous virtual world in front of them.
It is so remote and profound, and the pressure it brings is even greater than the virtual world I encountered before.
It was as if you were there in person. The bodies of the saints seemed to be stained by darkness and they were all silent.
"Of course, there is also good news. After two reunions, our strength has also increased to a certain extent. And..."
"With more than a hundred thousand years of heritage from the mountains and seas, and with our mountain and sea traveler here, perhaps we can create a few more saints to help." As Taiyi was speaking, a brilliant golden light rose from the mountains and seas, shooting straight towards the other side.
But it is the Holy Emperor Taiwei.
This time, there was no small talk either, and he got straight to the point: "Since I have the method of True Spirit Infusion, I have not refined the Great Saint Elixir. This time, I have changed it to the Great Saint Luck Elixir. The two sections of mountains and seas, plus the transformation from virtual to real, have drained away the accumulation of 300,000 years."
"Nine more."
Taiwei Saint Emperor took a quick look around and took out nine balls of light that emitted crystal clear light and seemed to have their own lives.
"Thanks to the restoration of the mountains and seas, the efficacy of the Holy Luck Elixir refined this time is even better than before. Taking it may have the pious thoughts of billions of sentient beings in the Holy Dynasty impacted. I also stopped after taking two pills. New saints, do it according to your ability."
"Next time, thirty thousand years later."
After saying this, without waiting for the saints to respond, Taiwei Holy Emperor left in a hurry.
"There are nine pills for so many of us to share, but he swallowed two by himself." Bai Xiao muttered to himself.
Taiyi smiled and said, "Taiwei's main body needs to suppress the luck of the majestic Holy Dynasty, and cannot move easily. Therefore, every time he comes and goes, he is very hasty. As for this Holy Luck Medicine..."
"Zhou Hui, you can take one first."
Li Fan was slightly stunned when he heard this.
He didn't get to drink the Holy Medicine last time. How come he got a share this time when more people were sharing it and the Holy Medicine was more potent?
The three saints Lianshan, Guihai and Taiyi are of one mind and one heart.
Since Taiyi has spoken, the other saints will naturally have no objection.
Seeing that Li Fan was a little hesitant, Taiyi explained: "Although you have already achieved the Great Dao of the Universe, this Dao has been partially damaged during the process of subjugation. Moreover, you will be responsible for the infusion of true spirit in the future..."
Taiyi lightly pointed his finger, and one of the light balls slowly flew to Li Fan.
Li Fan secretly felt ashamed, but still swallowed the Holy Luck Medicine.
Close your eyes and digest it.
Li Fan got one alone, and the remaining eight were shared among the saints.
The Three Saints of Lianshan do not need it. New saints get one, and those with stronger strength such as thieves and sundial masters get half.
Soon, the treasures sent by Taiwei entered the stomachs of the saints.
It was just as Taiwei Saint Emperor said, and he even had some reservations.
This time the effect of the medicine is almost twice as good as before.
As the ball of light entered his stomach, Li Fan's sea of consciousness was swallowed up by endless light and shadow.
The perspective sweeps across the boundless land.
Everywhere you look, there is endless fertile land.
All living beings live and work in peace and contentment. In their spare time, every household silently recites the grace of the Holy Emperor.
There is no famine or disaster in the holy dynasty.
Everyone has enough food and clothing and a house to live in.
The shadow of the Holy Emperor, who reigns supreme over the world and sees through everything, will instantly wipe out all corruption and evil the moment it occurs.
This is undoubtedly a prosperous era.
Only in such a prosperous era can a great medicine be condensed that even saints can benefit from.
Li Fan also had a Saint Emperor clone.
He naturally knew that such a glorious and prosperous era was built on the powerful strength of Taiwei Saint Emperor.
Without the Saint Emperor's suppression, I'm afraid all the good things would decay and collapse in an instant.
"No wonder the Holy Emperor Taiwei couldn't leave for long."
"It is precisely because he is always correcting the wrongs that the Holy Dynasty can be called Holy."
A great holy medicine seemed to embody the thoughts of countless people of the Holy Dynasty.
Their life experiences and even their thoughts and ideas.
After death, they were condensed and extracted by the Holy Emperor like trickling streams and turned into usable medicines.
Li Fan understood it carefully.
With his determination, even if the holy medicine was extraordinary, it would not really affect him and make him feel respect for the Taiwei Saint Emperor from the bottom of his heart.
Instead, he discovered something interesting among the confluence of countless thoughts.
Even in the Taiwei Holy Dynasty, a paradise that almost only exists in ideals, not all of its people are satisfied.
There are even some people who secretly complain in their hearts that the Holy Emperor is too powerful and has too much say in everything.
From time to time, unrealistic and dangerous thoughts flashed through my mind.
Of course, with their abilities, they are naturally unable to resist the Holy Emperor Taiwei.
But it doesn't stop them from taking it out and fantasizing about it every once in a while.
All living beings in the Holy Dynasty do not know that every thought in their minds is actually under the control of Holy Emperor Taiwei.
But Taiwei did it intentionally and allowed these disharmonious factors to exist.
And perhaps it is precisely because of these "evil thoughts" that the Holy Luck Medicine is not so "sweet".
Can be swallowed safely.
"This Taiwei Saint Emperor is quite a wonderful person."
"It's a pity, I'm too tired."
Li Fan's heart was as solid as a rock. Among the countless thoughts that converged on him, no matter whether it was praise or slander for the Holy Emperor, nothing could shake his original intention.
Just browse and absorb the lifelong experience and make it your own.
On the other side, I don’t know how time passes.
After Li Fan completely absorbed the effects of the medicine, he suddenly opened his eyes.
Only then did he realize that he was the first among all the saints to wake up.
"It seems that Zhou Hui has made a lot of progress after experiencing the endless cycle of reincarnation." Taiyi nodded.
Li Fan bowed slightly, and then he found that the Three Saints of Lianshan had disappeared and had already gone into the virtual world.
Only a shadow is left sitting cross-legged.
"We will go ahead. A hundred thousand years of continuous virtual world is no small matter."
"Before the mountains and the sea merged, we couldn't make any progress. Besides the fact that this virtual world was too long, there were other reasons. Now that our strength has doubled, let's try it again. If we can solve it, that would be even better. If it still doesn't work, then we can discuss another way."
Li Fan was curious about what the virtual world crisis was that even the Three Saints were embarrassed about. However, Taiyi's phantom did not continue to speak, but changed the subject.
Pointing to the mountains and seas again: "Zhou Hui, you can go back to the endless cycle of possibilities. When you digested the medicine, we looked back and found something that was almost overlooked."
This sentence was transmitted to a private person, only to Li Fan, and was not made public.
Li Fan was stunned.
Even the Avenue of Mountains and Seas has been conquered by him, what else has he missed?
However, the Three Saints of Lianshan would never tease him about such a thing. Li Fan looked serious and looked at the Endless Loop again.
Because of his remaining cosmic power suppressing it, the cycle has not collapsed.
Compared to what he had personally experienced, nothing seemed to have changed.
Li Fan used the saint-level thoughts to scan this small area several times, but he still didn't find the place that the three saints said he missed.
He did not give up easily or ask Taiyi Xuying for advice, but started to think about it on his own.
The past scenes reappeared in my mind, as if I had experienced them all over again.
It's just from an outsider's perspective.
This time, Li Fan finally found some clues.
"The Great Avenue of the Universe should not have been aware of the existence of the saints beyond the other shore. When I was lost in the cycle of reincarnation, He had ample opportunity to escape."
"Why does He refuse to leave? He is willing to drag me into the reincarnation just to stay here."
"Even when he cut off his arm to survive, he only took away a small part of his essence. He still left a relatively large body shell to continue to maintain the possibility of the loop."
"Without external interference, as long as the Cosmic Avenue still exists between the mountains and the sea, the cycle there can still continue."
"It's both a way of escaping and a way of luring the tiger away from the mountain?"
"There is something that Zhou Hui is waiting for, or is valuing!"
Li Fan suddenly understood, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he looked for the possibility of a loop again.
Even the Three Saints almost overlooked it, so it must be hidden very deeply.
But since Li Fan already knew its value, he also became very patient.
He explored countless possibilities one by one, no longer just skimming through them.
Immerse yourself in it.
During this time, some of the other saints woke up and saw that Li Fan still had his eyes closed. They thought he was still digesting the medicine and did not take it seriously.
Instead, they are more concerned with the three saints' journey to explore the virtual world.
Silently, Li Fan spent a similar amount of time as he did the last time he got lost to check all the possibilities of the endless loop.
Finally, the target was found.
It can be said that the existence of all cyclic possibilities is a maze built by the Cosmic Avenue to cover up itself.
The reason why the Cosmic Avenue did not leave until the last moment was because it was reluctant to leave.
It is precisely because of the existence of this thing.
A seemingly ordinary cycle of reincarnation, everything in the world flows through the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter.
A lonely stone tablet stands on the endless grassland.
There seemed to be some blurry words engraved on it.
Li Fan appeared in front of the stone tablet and wanted to reach out and touch it.
But it was like walking through a bubble, and touched nothing.
"Even when I scanned the sky with my divine sense, I couldn't see its existence."
“Only by coming here in person can you see its shadow.”
“This stone tablet…”
Li Fan was sure that the Three Saints had been here.
Even though one cannot sense the aura left by the Three Saints, the shadows of the Three Saints are reflected on this stone tablet!
Or, to be more precise, lines.
Li Fan's eyes swept across dozens of mottled marks on the stone tablet, looking for traces belonging to the Three Saints of Lianshan.
"Here, here,"
Two new traces represent Lianshan and Guihai.
"as well as……"
"here."
An old, but newly added trace, is the breath left by Taiyi.
It is just a sparse and ordinary stroke, but it is enough to summarize the image of the Three Saints.
The lines are engraved on the stone tablet, as if the Three Saints were captured and the saints were present in person.
"There are dozens of other traces on the stone tablet..."
Li Fan was stunned for a moment.
But he reacted quickly.
As the mountains and seas were swallowed up by Daoyan, the current state and strength of the Three Saints are far from what they were in their prime.
It can only represent themselves at a certain time.
"However, those who can leave their images on this stone tablet must be strong. At the very least, they are all mountain and sea saints."
"Even before the mountains and seas were cut off..."
Li Fan faintly sensed the aura of other saints from the other mottled lines on the stone tablet.
Surprisingly, most of them are saints who have achieved success through the Great Way of Mountains and Seas!
"This stone tablet must have been there for some time. Even Lianshan and Guihai had no trace left on it before."
"That was an ancient time and space when even the Mountain Saint had not yet been born."
“Only Taiyi exists.”
"But at that time, Taiyi was still far from reaching his peak."
Li Fan reached out his hand again, wanting to touch the mountains and sea roads engraved on the stone tablet.
"It seems that there are more mountains and seas than I thought."
"It's just that the ancient saints have already occupied it. Therefore, those who come later who want to become saints can only find another way. They can prove their truth by uniting all selves, or by creating a new world."
“…”
Thinking of this, Li Fan's thoughts paused slightly.
He suddenly realized something was wrong.
There were so many saints in the mountains and seas in the past, why are there only a few like Lianshan left now?
Where did those who left traces on the stone tablet go?
"Or, it will fall in the current time and space."
"Either they disappeared before the mountains and seas were divided by Daoyan. That's why they don't exist in the current time and space."
“…”
"It should be the second one."
With the current situation in Shanhai, all the saints are united in purpose and only want to save the world. It is almost impossible for them to kill each other.
And if he were to perish in the Dao, the saints on the other side would certainly mention it no matter what.
But he never mentioned it.
This shows that these saints do not exist in the current mountains and seas.
In short, the reporter who left the seal on the stone tablet did not live to see the birth of Li Fan.
It had fallen even before the mountain and sea disaster occurred.
Why did he die? What power could kill a saint?
Many questions came to Li Fan's mind.
However, the Three Saints of Lianshan only pointed out the existence of the stone tablet but did not tell Li Fan the information behind it.
Li Fan knew almost nothing about that ancient time and space.
It's hard to guess.
“Even saints cannot last long.”
Just as Li Fan was sighing, there were indeed some fluctuations in his body.
