Chapter 216 Patience in doing old things (Combined Chapter)
Dissociation from the mountain top.
[Huan Zhen]'s spontaneous body protection allowed Li Fan to escape from Tian Yi's sight and successfully return to the anchor point.
The illusory scene became real again. Li Fan quickly glanced around and made sure that he had returned to the third anchor point.
I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
A moment later, the fear brought by escaping death at the hands of the white-haired old man finally came to him.
It descended upon his heart, causing his heart to beat violently.
As if he had been drowning for a long time and finally surfaced, Li Fan began to breathe heavily uncontrollably.
After a long while, he slowly came out of the fear of escaping the disaster.
"Heavenly Doctor, above the Dao..."
Li Fan's face was gloomy as he replayed the scene in his mind over and over again.
He never expected that the strength of this [Heavenly Doctor] would be so terrifying.
Far superior to the black-clothed Hedao in Yuandaozhou.
A divine doctor, he seems to be able to see into people’s inner thoughts.
The clone only had a thought that naturally flashed through his mind at that time, but he actually noticed something unusual.
What's even more terrifying is that he used some unknown method to make his clone confess everything in his heart without any resistance or concealment.
After that, he came back to life and tore through the space in an instant, finding Li Fan's real body.
All these methods are beyond Li Fan’s current understanding.
"The Art of Stealing the Sky and Changing the Day, the original body and the clone can be regarded as two unrelated people."
"How on earth did he determine my identity?"
"The Xuantian Mirror is the foundation of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, so its safety should be guaranteed."
"When I joined the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, Tianxuan Jing also said that when practicing in the space inside the mirror, there is no need to worry about being attacked."
“But this Heavenly Doctor was able to force his way into my cultivation space, and the Mysterious Heavenly Mirror didn’t react at all.”
"When Tianxuanjing introduced him, he didn't even mention his name."
"What is the identity of this old man?"
The more Li Fan thought about it, the more incredible it seemed.
At the same time, I couldn't help but feel a surge of fear in my heart.
If he had not been cautious and knew that the old man was extremely powerful, he would have used his clone to contact him.
If he hadn't noticed something was wrong, he would have activated [Zhenzhen] without any hesitation.
If it weren't for the fact that [Zhenzhen] had accumulated some charging progress, the automatic body protection would have come into play.
I'm afraid that this time everything is really over for him.
If you fall into the hands of this mysterious old man, you will definitely not be able to keep any secrets and will eventually die.
"This world of cultivating immortals is too dangerous. Even for me who possesses a rare treasure like [Huanzhen], it is still difficult to move forward. If I am not careful, I will be smashed to pieces." Li Fan couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
In addition to being shocked, Li Fan also did some self-reflection.
Since he entered the world of cultivating immortals, with the help of Huanzhen, his path of cultivation has not been too bumpy.
The last time he escaped from He Dao's men, Li Fan began to feel that he "underestimated the heroes of the world".
Think about it carefully, these powerful people who have survived all the way from the [Great Catastrophe Era], [Great Plague Era], and [Dark Age] to the present day.
How could it be a simple role?
I possess the secret of [Huan Zhen], so it's good that I don't come into the sight of the powerful.
If one's cultivation is low, he will still wander around in front of them without knowing the danger.
It really is a way to death.
"We need to be more cautious in the future." Li Fan sighed.
"It's better not to have the 100,000 contribution points of the Cloud and Water Illustrated Scripture."
After some deep reflection and summary, and when his thoughts had calmed down a little, Li Fan suddenly remembered the "Immortal Medicine Scripture" he had read before.
As a medical book, its research object is not just humans.
It also includes all kinds of animals and plants between heaven and earth.
The book once said that the way of medicine lies in the four words "look, listen, ask, and feel".
"Look, smell, ask and feel..." Li Fan kept repeating in a low voice.
"Wang, saw something strange in the clone's mind."
"Asked, and got an honest answer from the clone."
"Tsk, a finger in the air, bringing the dead back to life."
"Wen, I immediately discovered the relationship between the original body and the clone."
"What a good method of observation, smell, questioning and palpation."
"What a great doctor."
…
The Heavenly Doctor made Li Fan realize for the first time how terrifying the high-level cultivators in the Xuanhuang Realm were.
However, even after recognizing the gap, he did not lose confidence.
"I have [Zhen Huan] in my hand. As long as I survive, I will accumulate strength through reincarnation. One day, I will catch up with and surpass them."
Li Fan said silently in his heart, suppressing all thoughts about Tian Yi in the deepest part of his heart.
Looking at it, there are actually quite a few options.
When the third anchor point is set, the realm is the late stage of foundation building.
I only lived for a little over two years in my previous life before it came to an abrupt end.
Unable to break through the small realm, Li Fan naturally would not choose this option.
He decisively chose the first option and kept the item he had, the Dao Stone.
After making his selection, Li Fan first checked the HuanZhen panel which he had not checked for a long time.
Name: Li Fan
Realm: Late stage of foundation building
Biological age: 20/399
Mental age: 1212/3700
Virtual Energy Recharge Progress: 0%
Anchor charge progress: 1%
Current number of anchor points: 3
Current available anchor quantity: 0
Bound items: "Thousand Machines Jade Gold Seal", Taiyan Boat, Broken Stop Monument (damaged), Blood Essence of Ten Thousand People, Dao Stone
Skills: Xuanhuang Refining Heart Mantra, Yunshui Huanmeng Gong, Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun, Qianji Yuhuan Jinzhang, Yiling Huan Gong
Supernatural powers: Life and death chain, formless killing intent, insect binding
The upper limits of both physical and psychological age have stagnated.
There will be no major changes until you break through to the Jindan realm.
Anyway, more than two thousand years of reincarnation time is definitely enough for Li Fan at the moment.
In addition to the skills on the list, Li Fan also mastered two exclusive skills: Dinghai Divine Sword and Canghai Treading Waves.
The Sitting Mountain Technique is an internal method of cultivation.
There are two secret techniques: the Dao of Transformation and the Zixiao Soul Search.
Zhang Zhiliang's infinite Dharma inheritance.
The perversion of 【Huan Zhen】 was clearly revealed at this time.
Not to mention the ninety-nine lives in which he used Huan Zhen to build his foundation, Li Fan's actual effective number of reincarnations in the world of immortal cultivation has been only four so far.
After four reincarnations, Li Fan's accumulation has reached a level far beyond that of any foundation-building cultivator.
…
"While waiting for Huanzhen to finish charging, I can use this time to practice the Dao Transformation Technique."
As Li Fan thought about this, his mind moved and a deep blue Dao Stone appeared in his hand.
After some arrangements were made near the Jieli Mountain to prevent mortals from accidentally entering.
Li Fan placed the Dao-Transforming Stone between his eyebrows, and his spiritual thoughts and the Dao-Transforming Stone slowly merged, and he entered a state of cultivation.
There is no time in the mountains. In the blink of an eye, it’s been 5 years since we’ve been anchored.
On this day, Li Fan's spiritual consciousness and the Dao Stone completely merged into one.
A brilliant blue crystal suddenly appeared in the dantian area between his eyebrows.
Thoughts flow, and I feel them carefully.
After a moment, Li Fan quickly noticed something different from before.
He couldn't help but show joy on his face: "The ancient secret technique is really extraordinary!"
After cultivating [Transformation God One], not only the speed of thinking and calculation has become more than a hundred times faster than before.
Moreover, all the scenes and images that you have ever experienced can be called up at will in a moment.
It's as if I was experiencing it again, it's all so vivid in my mind.
Li Fan narrowed his eyes slightly. When he first met the Heavenly Doctor, he pointed between his eyebrows and taught the "Heavenly Doctor Immortal Scripture" to his clone.
At this moment, under the powerful calculation and processing power of the Huadao Stone, it is slowly reappearing.
It took Li Fan nearly a year to memorize the "Heavenly Medical Immortal Scripture" thoroughly.
Of course, memorization does not mean proficient application.
Just like there is a huge gap between Li Fan's theoretical level of formation and his actual level of formation deployment.
"It is indeed just a pure medical classic. It is not of much help to cultivation." Li Fan shook his head with regret.
"The techniques of observation, listening, questioning and palpation in the book are also very different from the methods of the heavenly doctor."
"but……"
"It seems that Tianyi entered Taoism from medicine. This "Tianyi Xianjing" must be the foundation of his life's learning."
“If one day, I could find a peerless genius, I would teach him this medical classic.”
“It may not be impossible to emulate the story of the Heavenly Doctor.”
"But I definitely can't do this in the Xuanhuang Realm. Maybe I can give it a try in a remote small world far away from the Xiuxian Realm."
Putting it aside for the moment, Li Fan suddenly thought of Tai Yan Sect's deduction technique.
If the Tianji Sect's "Thousand Machines Jade Gold Chapter" is practiced to a deep level, it can also predict the future.
But that is deduced through the induction of Qi.
The Taiyan Sect's deductive technique is to maximize the ability of deduction, exhaust all possibilities, and find the one that best suits the future direction.
"In fact, these two methods of deduction are not necessarily contradictory."
"On the contrary, they can complement each other. Qi deduction can determine the general vague direction. Taiyan's divine calculation can accurately predict the future."
"Haha, but none of them can compare to my [Zhen Zhen]."
"What deduction technique can be more accurate than coming from the future and experiencing it personally!"
Li Fan was in high spirits and went down the mountain.
Daxuan, Jiangnan, Hanguang City.
Recently, a strange thing happened in this rich city.
A strange man named Shen Suanzi traveled around the country and set up a stall to tell fortunes.
Only three hexagrams are opened every day.
There is no charge, it just depends on the person.
At first, the residents of the city thought that this fortune teller was just a liar with empty gimmicks.
Because the hexagrams he calculated were sometimes accurate and sometimes not.
But as time went on, the success rate of this fortune teller's fortune telling became higher and higher.
No matter where the lost property is, where the missing child is, or whether you are asking about marriage or the gender of the baby in the womb.
They are all accurate.
Gradually, the name of this divine fortune teller became famous.
In Guanghan City, men, women, young and old, all respected him.
On this day, a nobleman came to Guanghan City for a visit. After hearing about this, he became interested.
He then dressed in plain clothes and came to the fortune teller's stall with only a trusted person.
I saw the fortune teller lying on the bench with his eyes closed and taking a nap.
"Master Taoist, has today's fortune been calculated?" This nobleman had already inquired about the rules before coming, and asked.
The fortune teller didn't even open his eyes, and said lazily: "You are asking questions even though you already know the answer. If the divination is full, I will naturally close the stall and go home. Why would I still be here?"
The nobleman felt a little embarrassed when he heard this.
However, the confidant became furious when he saw his master being humiliated.
At this moment, he no longer cared about his reputation as a "magician" and was about to smash the stall.
The nobleman reached out his hand to stop his confidant and said, "In this case, please tell me your fortune, Taoist priest."
The divine fortune teller closed his eyes as usual and said, "I had already predicted that you two would come, and I have already calculated it for you in advance."
"There's a note in the small wooden box in the upper left corner of the stall. You'll know it when you see it."
Upon hearing this, the confidant was even more disdainful and snorted coldly: "Playing tricks!"
The nobleman looked solemn and thanked the fortune teller.
Then he opened the wooden box, took out the note, and slowly unfolded it.
When he saw the handwriting on the note, his face turned pale.
Feeling shocked, frightened and happy all at the same time, his hands went limp and the note fell to the ground.
Upon seeing this, the nobleman no longer cared about his manners and quickly squatted down to pick up the note.
I held it tightly in my hand, afraid that others would see it.
His body was shaking with excitement, and he just kept repeating the sixteen big words on the note in his mind.
"I have been lying dormant for nine years, waiting for the right time. The day my brother dies is the day I will become the emperor."
Seeing their master behave like this, the confidant felt somewhat confused.
Ever since the tragedy that day, there has been little that could change his expression.
Could it be that this divine fortune teller really has some special abilities?
I just don’t know what he wrote on the little note to his master.
The noble man did not care about the little thoughts of his subordinates.
He took a deep breath, calmed his excitement, and was about to pay his respects solemnly to the divine fortune teller.
However, he was shocked to find that the divine fortune teller who had just been there had suddenly disappeared before his eyes at some point!
All the nobles and confidants were shocked.
Are there really ghosts and gods in this world?
The two returned to their residence, full of worries and dejected, and went back to their respective rooms to rest.
However, the confidant unexpectedly discovered that there was a note in his pocket.
Out of curiosity, the confidant opened the note.
After seeing the handwriting on the note, he couldn't help but look confused.
There were only two lines of poetry written on it.
"Peace is determined by the general, and the general is not allowed to see peace."
The confidant repeated this sentence silently, and subconsciously tore the note into pieces and swallowed it.
…
Above Hanguang City, after seeing the reaction of his confidant, Li Fan couldn't help but reveal an inexplicable smile on his face.
"Before, I listened to your dying words, and I suddenly realized it, and successfully established the foundation with [Return to Heaven]."
"I'm telling you my fortune now, which is also a way of repaying the favor I showed you back then."
"I hope you can have a different destiny in this life."
The two people who were fortune-telling today were naturally the Prince of Langya and the General Zhenwei who would lead the troops to quell the rebellion in the future.
Li Fan transformed himself into a divine fortune teller, traveling around the world to comprehend the art of divination.
After settling down in Guanghan City, his deduction skills became increasingly advanced.
He also happened to meet two acquaintances, the Prince of Langya and his confidant, and on a whim, he came up with what happened today.
Just act spontaneously and settle a cause and effect.
Li Fan's thoughts were clear and he was in a good mood.
We didn't stay here any longer and returned to the Jieli Mountain.
The scenes during this period flashed through his mind in an instant, and Li Fan had his own understanding of the so-called deduction technique.
"In Guanghan City, my spiritual consciousness covers all people and things in the city."
"With the terrifying calculation ability of the Dao Stone, I can see everything, no matter how big or small."
"Just talking about the events in this city, with all the factors in place, I can predict them to be almost accurate."
"But there is more than one city in the world. Hanguang City is located at the intersection of canals and has developed shipping."
"There is an endless stream of merchants coming and going, with more than tens of thousands of people coming in and out every day."
“That’s what we call a variable.”
"The more variables there are, the less accurate my calculations will be."
"In addition to external influences, the unpredictable human mind is also a variable."
"As the number of people and the size of the city continue to expand, there will be more and more variables to deal with."
"At this point, relying solely on the ability to deduce has little effect."
"It still needs the support of the derivation method."
Although he understood this principle, Li Fan did not go out of his way to find a method to deduce it.
To put it bluntly, this method of divination was just a casual attempt by Li Fan out of boredom while he was waiting for [Huanzhen] to finish charging.
Just go with the flow, don't force it.
The most important thing is the improvement of the level of cultivation.
Li Fan secretly set a goal in his heart that he must break through to the Golden Core Stage in this life!
…
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it will be 9 years since we were anchored.
The charging was about to be completed, and Li Fan went to Yi Xing's tomb again and put away the Tiansuo treasure box.
Afterwards, I didn't forget to bring the bound broken monument of stopping progress and the one in Qian Hong's tomb with me.
Then, as usual, he swept around and filled the Taiyan Boat.
After everything was ready, Li Fan broke through the Xian Jue formation and returned to the world of immortal cultivation.
Before he met the Heavenly Doctor, Li Fan felt that there was nothing wrong with the plans and arrangements he had made in his previous life.
The starting point of cultivation in this life is the same as that in the previous life, and there is no better entry point.
Considering that if the action is changed, unexpected variables may occur.
So Li Fan decided to follow suit and do what he did in his previous life.
Kill the giant colored glass fish, obtain the exquisite colored glass beads, and ensure that the Lingwu grass incident will occur.
Later, through He Zhenghao, he joined the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
Do the Blue Blood Coral mission, use the Blue Flame Phantom as bait, and make friends with Chen Ying from the Pharmacy.
Execute Sikong Yi and obtain the order to steal the sky and replace the day.
Scare He Zhenghao and make him suspend his smuggling business.
Borrow Lingwu grass from Qingfeng Hall.
After joining the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, with the blessing of Qiqiao Linglong Heart, he successfully passed the test of the Questioning Platform.
Complete meritorious tasks and upgrade your authority level.
In the turmoil of Lingwu Grass, you can make huge profits without any investment.
Using Zhou Qingang's spy incident to force He Zhenghao to sign a work contract.
Relearn "The Art of Sitting in the Mountain" and purchase the Advance Realm.
He sneaked out of the world alone, causing Ye Feipeng, Xiao Heng and others to be stranded on an isolated island again.
Commissioned Jiao Xiuyuan to excavate the Small Medicine King Cauldron.
…
It's just a matter of repeating the process of the previous life, which only takes one or two years.
Li Fan is very patient.
However, with the experience from his previous life, Li Fan still made some fine adjustments to the handling of a few things.
The first is that during the Lingwu Grass incident, we clearly knew the time when Tianxuan Mirror issued the announcement.
However, in order not to arouse suspicion, Li Fan cautiously waited until the price of Lingwu Grass rose from 320 points to 350 points.
He sold all 2,900 Lingwu grasses in his hands in batches.
A total of 980,000 contribution points were earned.
The second is that when Li Fan was training his clone in this life, he used a rare object from heaven and earth that he bought in the advance realm.
The clone's cultivation level instantly increased to the middle stage of foundation building.
Afterwards, he purchased the White Bone Advance Realm and pretended to be the skull to deceive Xiao Heng and others, all of which were done by his clone.
He also described the power of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance in detail, and reminded Xiao Heng that improving his cultivation was the most important thing.
All you need to do is pretend to be an ordinary cultivator who has had a strange encounter.
In order to prevent any unexpected situations, Li Fan did not choose to purchase any skills from the Tianxuan Mirror this time.
The one passed to Xiao Heng was "Dinghai Divine Sword", and the one passed to Ye Feipeng was "Treading Waves on the Sea".
It will take some time for Su Xiaomei and Su Changyu to be able to practice.
Just find the ownerless technique before that.
The original body and the clone can solve the problem by going to Qin Tang to get some benefits.
However, considering that a large number of skills might be needed in the future, Li Fan felt that he still had to find a stable channel to purchase skills outside of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
After thinking about it, Li Fan's clone contacted Jiao Xiuyuan.
Soon, the other party responded.
"Um, fellow Daoist, you want to buy the Golden Elixir Technique? Why don't you buy it from the Tianxuan Mirror? Could it be that you haven't found a suitable one?"
"Haha, I don't have any skills to sell. I can't handle such a big deal."
"But if you really need it, I know a place that can satisfy your needs."
"Have you ever heard of the Wanfa Chamber of Commerce, fellow Daoist?"
Li Fan was slightly stunned, and a name that was extremely similar to his name, with only one character different, suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Is this Wanfa Chamber of Commerce related to Wanhua Chamber of Commerce?" Li Fan asked.
"That's right. In fact, Wanhua Chamber of Commerce is Wanfa Chamber of Commerce, but it is specifically responsible for the business of mortals, so it has another name." Jiao Xiuyuan replied.
"Wanfa Chamber of Commerce..." Li Fan couldn't help but think that before the red flame sea came, Wanhua Chamber of Commerce received a notice to evacuate Congyun Sea.
"This Wanfa Chamber of Commerce has something special."
