Chapter 431: Sword Qi Lasts for Thousands of Years
It wasn’t that Li Chenfeng stopped flying.
Instead, there seemed to be a sudden, unbridgeable gap between him and Li Fan.
It's so close yet so far away. No matter how angry Li Chenfeng is, no matter how fast the two pairs of wings behind him flap.
He could never escape from this invisible cage.
The Yin-Yang Microdust Array!
Although the one Li Fan set up was only a simplified version, it was more than enough to trap Li Chenfeng, who had mastered Qi training and relied entirely on his strong body combined with that of the strange beast.
"The insect binding has actually failed." Li Fan looked at Li Chenfeng, whose face was ferocious, with a look of great interest.
Taking a step forward, Li Fan's figure instantly appeared in the formation and came behind Li Chenfeng.
Before he could react, the Great Five Elements Nirvana Sword in his hand was activated, cutting off a large piece of armor-like keratin from one half of Li Chenfeng's body.
Li Chenfeng howled in pain and anger and was about to launch a counterattack, but Li Fan had already left the Liang Yi Micro Dust Array, making his attack in vain.
Ignoring Li Chenfeng's unwilling roar, Li Fan placed the keratin cut from his body in front of his eyes and observed it carefully.
It still feels warm like a living organism, but its texture is quite hard.
Li Fan controlled the spiritual power in his body, condensed a water blade, and shot it towards it.
"bite!"
After making a crisp sound, the water blade was actually bounced away.
The cuticle only left a faint mark, which soon disappeared as the flesh at the edge of the cuticle squirmed.
"It's equivalent to the attack of an ordinary mid-stage Jindan cultivator, but it can't even break the defense." Li Fan was a little surprised.
"It's still very active, and seems to have its own independent consciousness. I'm afraid that if it is given enough nutrition and time, it may be able to grow into another complete body."
Having never seen anything like this before, Li Fan's eyes when he looked at Li Chenfeng and others this time were completely different.
"A small world that can control 100,000 world-shattering whales is definitely not that simple."
"Now, let me see how far your empire has developed."
Li Fan's divine sense suddenly enveloped Li Chenfeng and the other three.
The Cloud and Water Dream Technique is activated!
Li Chenfeng, who was still struggling, suddenly became quiet.
The stratum corneum of the strange beast outside its body slowly faded away, and it turned back into its original harmless handsome young man appearance.
His eyes were closed and the expressions on his face kept changing.
On the other hand, the Foundation Building Master and the man surnamed Xiao were already immersed in the beautiful dream and could not extricate themselves.
Time passes slowly.
Three days later, Li Chenfeng finally let down his guard and revealed a satisfied smile.
Li Fan slowly opened his eyes.
"This is……"
A trace of confusion flashed through his mind.
The small world where Li Chenfeng lives is a strange world with only endless ocean.
There are no islands in the ocean.
There are only huge [Sky-supporting Tortoises] with humans living on their backs, swimming constantly in the ocean.
In the sky, there was a huge corpse of a [three-headed divine bird] floating.
It occupies nearly one-third of the sky.
It is unknown how many years have passed since the three-headed bird died, but its body remains immortal.
Originally, all kinds of strange beasts gathered there, feeding on the corpse of the three-headed divine bird.
Many years ago, a rare genius emerged from a tribe on a sky-supporting turtle.
He mastered the ability to control exotic beasts and selflessly taught it to other human races.
Under his leadership, humans successfully defeated the strange beasts that were lurking in the corpses of the three-headed divine bird.
From then on, a unified human empire was established on the corpse of the divine bird.
After thousands of years of development, the empire's exploitation and utilization of exotic beasts has almost reached its peak.
The strange beasts have infiltrated every aspect of human life in the empire.
People can conveniently travel around the world on the new hybrid beast [Broad-backed Peng].
You can also tame exotic animals and hunt creatures in the ocean, sky, and even outside the small world and in the void.
The Empire has even developed technology to combine the power of exotic beasts with that of humans.
That is the [Beast God Armor] worn by Li Chenfeng.
However, even with so many achievements, a shadow always lingered over the empire.
It makes the people of the empire unable to sleep or eat.
Because the three-headed bird, which they regarded as a god, did not die of natural causes.
Even when it was alive, it didn't have only three heads.
The so-called three-headed divine bird should be the [Nine-headed Bird].
This terrifying creature, which the imperial people could not imagine, had six heads chopped off.
The body was then dumped here.
The Imperials were not completely ignorant of the culprit.
They knew that it was a being called Immortal.
There is still a legend among the tribe that the immortals exiled their ancestors here.
The people of the empire fear and yearn for the immortals.
Because although the empire was very developed, it was still unable to solve the problem of human life span.
In the empire, living for a hundred years is considered extremely longevity.
Therefore, the empire coveted the magical technique that was rumored to be able to both master powerful strength and prolong life.
After sacrificing many lives in attempts, the pioneers of the empire finally broke through the blockade of the Xianjue Array and arrived at the Xuanhuang Realm.
Unfortunately, the news they got disappointed them.
If you want to practice immortal arts, you must have spiritual energy.
In the world where the empire exists, there is no such thing as spiritual energy.
Furthermore, there is the restriction that the Fa cannot be practiced together.
For the people of the empire, who find it extremely difficult to collect a method of cultivating immortality, cultivating immortality seems to have become an unattainable dream.
However, the tenacious Imperials did not give up.
Instead, they continued to send people to infiltrate the Xuanhuang Realm to find out more information.
At the same time, a think tank was formed to study possible methods of achieving immortality.
Thus, after generations of efforts, a plan that could be described as a fantasy was put forward.
First of all, there is the issue of aura.
The solution to the problem was purely accidental.
The holy place of the empire, where the head of the sacred bird lies.
At the broken parts of the six heads, there were still traces of the sword that had killed the divine bird.
This sword is incredibly powerful.
After thousands of years, the sword energy is still continuous, suppressing the wronged soul of the nine-headed bird.
All the strange beasts will sense the sword energy and consciously avoid it.
But one time, a citizen of the empire violated the law, visited Jianhen, and secretly took his own exotic beast away.
Who would have thought that the sword energy would be activated.
The citizens were safe and sound, and the strange beasts were instantly killed by the sword energy.
When the Imperial Guard was capturing this citizen, they unexpectedly discovered that the strange beast, which should have been turned into nothingness by the sword energy, actually had a shining crystal core left.
If the imperial people had not come into contact with the Xuanhuang Realm, perhaps they would not have been able to clearly understand what this crystal core was.
However, those former Taoist practitioners were shocked to find that the energy in the crystal core could actually replace spiritual energy for their practice.
Later, the empire conducted research and found that crystal cores existed in the bodies of only a very small number of exotic beasts.
Fortunately, there is a group of creatures called [Flying Ball Beasts] that reproduce very quickly and are easy to tame.
After the first batch of large-scale breeding, the empire harvested hundreds of thousands of crystal cores.
A mutated essence version was also found among them.
A magic thief who was in the early stage of Qi Refining successfully broke through to the perfection of Qi Refining with the help of these crystal cores.
Unfortunately, due to the limitations of immortal practice, I cannot go any further.
However, despite this, the empire still saw the dawn of immortality through cultivation.
The next thing to be solved is the problem that practicing the Tianzun's method requires various media, and that immortal methods cannot be practiced at the same time.
