Chapter 19: Xu Yuan wants to eat people
[End of this simulation]
…
Li Fan regained consciousness.
He stared closely at the scene of the Tai Yanzhou being shattered in the light curtain, and a deep fear lingered in his heart for a long time.
"What on earth is that thing?" Li Fan was confused.
When Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi traveled through the Xian Jue Formation before, they did not encounter this thing in the dark layer. Why is it different for them?
Is it simply because of my bad luck?
Li Fan doesn't think so.
The dark layer in this immortal formation is so vast that the small Tai Yan Boat is just a drop in the ocean.
But this unknown existence found me so accurately...
"Nine times out of ten, it's a method that only targets mortals."
"It seems that it would be safest to wait until the fog dissipates and light appears at the bottom of the abyss before exploring."
"Although I failed in the end, the gains from my previous life were indeed far beyond my expectations..."
Li Fan secretly calculated in his mind, and then decided to keep the "Tai Yan Zhou".
Name: Li Fan
Realm: Mortal
Biological age: 20/86
Mental age: 333/1113↑
Virtual Energy Recharge Progress: 0%
Anchor charge progress: 1%
Current number of anchor points: 1
Bound items: "Thousand Machine Jade Gold Seal", Taiyan Boat
…
Looking at the decreasing increase in the upper limit of psychological age, Li Fan also felt a sense of pressure.
Fortunately, the world of immortal cultivation is within reach. As long as we leave this immortal place, we can fly freely in the sky!
It was in this anticipation that Li Fan's seventh life began.
Li Fan would never take any risky actions until [Zhenzhen] was fully charged.
Therefore, he still planned to spend the first twenty years according to the script that he had experienced several times.
After three years of stay, Li Fan came to Wen County in the south of the Yangtze River to lie dormant.
After 4 years, he led his confidants and secretly came to Qian Hong's tomb.
This time, he used a spray containing immortal and mortal miasma to slowly corrode it until the power of the broken monument was weakened to the point where it could no longer penetrate the steel armor.
Li Fan, wearing steel armor, entered the tomb and placed his hand on the tombstone.
"Rechargeable item found: Stop Monument (damaged)."
"Do you want to charge?"
The prompt [Zhenzhen] popped up at the right time.
"It's a pity that there is still some damage." Li Fan thought to himself that it was a pity and chose yes.
The broken monument gradually turned into nothingness and disappeared.
And after absorbing the broken monument of stopping, the anchor charging progress of [Huanzhen] directly increased by 25%.
"Just three more times and I can unlock the second anchor point?" Li Fan was overjoyed, but he had a vague feeling that it wouldn't be that easy.
"It's useless to speculate too much. You will know when you come back in the next life."
The other things in Qian Hong’s tomb were no longer valuable to Li Fan. He ordered people to seal the tomb again before leaving.
After five years of anchoring, Li Fan finally couldn't help himself and came to Dongfang Xuyuan.
"Just take a look first and don't go down." Li Fan said to himself.
Gazing at the endless sea of fog, his sight seemed to penetrate the infinite space barrier and reach the bottom of the abyss.
After standing there for a long time, as the wind howled, the thick fog gradually dissipated, and the Xian Jue formation, which was originally full of dangers, seemed to no longer be dangerous.
"At this moment, if I drive the Tai Yan Boat, I can go all the way to the world of immortal cultivation smoothly." A thought suddenly popped up in Li Fan's mind, and it could no longer be suppressed. It expanded wildly and quickly occupied Li Fan's entire mind.
"Yes, we have waited for so long. Do we have to wait another fifteen years?"
"So what if I haven't fully charged my energy yet? How can I achieve great things if I'm so timid?"
"I have already tried it once in my previous life. As long as I am careful to avoid the unknown monster in the dark layer, I can leave this damn place!"
…
A flurry of chattering voices kept ringing in Li Fan's ears. His eyes gradually lost focus and turned blood red, as if he was bewitched by these voices.
Li Fan walked forward step by step, getting closer and closer to the Endless Abyss.
It seemed that Li Fan was about to be attracted by Xu Yuan and smashed to pieces.
At the bottom of the abyss, a bright light suddenly appeared, breaking through the Xianjue formation and appearing in Li Fan's eyes.
The irrational red color was temporarily suppressed, and the four big words "The Immortal Path is Dead" suddenly appeared in Li Fan's vision.
"boom!"
All the fanatical and desperate thoughts in my mind about pursuing the path of immortality and even taking a leap into the sky disappeared completely.
"What's going on?" Li Fan, who had just woken up, broke out in a cold sweat.
In his eyes, the peaceful abyss suddenly turned into a lurking ferocious beast, which had opened its huge mouth and wanted to swallow him.
Li Fan immediately turned around and ran away without looking back.
After a long time, the fog condensed again.
An angry roar was faintly heard from the bottom of the abyss.
…
Fifteen years later, anchored for twenty years.
【Zhenzhen】Finally the charging is complete.
Confident, Li Fan finally returned to Xuyuan.
Thinking back to that scene from that year, even though it has been a long time, Li Fan still feels a lingering fear.
"It seems that my guess was correct. The monster in the dark layer really has great malice towards mortals. Perhaps its mission is to devour all mortals who approach this place."
Although it is dangerous, Li Fan will never give up the path to immortality.
Without any hesitation, Li Fan drove the Tai Yan Boat and arrived at the thunderstorm layer safely.
Instead of going down, Li Fan stopped above the dark layer and waited patiently.
“Woo…”
A strong wind is rising.
The violent thunderstorm was affected by the inexplicable strong wind and began to die down and gradually weaken.
Spikes of light emerged from the darkness, and then connected together to form a continuous and vast picture.
Li Fan did not go to see this inverted wonder, but used this precious and short-lived light to look for the monster lurking in the darkness.
Unfortunately, nothing was gained!
Seeing that the light was about to disappear, Li Fan gritted his teeth, no longer hesitated, and drove the Tai Yan Boat with all his strength, rushing towards the bottom of the Abyss.
The strange cry sounded again and in an instant it was beside him.
At this time, Li Fan suddenly completely changed the direction of Tai Yanzhou's sprint.
After drawing a beautiful curve, the Tai Yanzhou, which was originally charging straight downwards, was now flying upwards at a speed several times faster than before!
Upward and upward again!
The Taiyan Boat ran at full power and with a furious roar, it sailed back into the thunderstorm layer!
With the last ray of light that was about to dissipate, Li Fan was looking down from above and finally saw the true face of the monster in the darkness.
It was a giant whale so huge that it was beyond description. Even though Li Fan was very far away, he could not see its full picture.
Even just that huge open mouth filled Li Fan's entire field of vision.
When the giant whale saw its prey returned to the thunderstorm layer, it became extremely angry, but could only swim forward.
After roaring a few times to vent its dissatisfaction, it reluctantly closed its mouth and disappeared into the darkness.
