Chapter 497 Rebuilding Wanxian Island
"Congyun Sea, Luoyan Province, Cangwuyuan, Qianling Province..."
Master Jinglun mentioned some place names that were either familiar or unfamiliar to Li Fan.
"The reason is that there are [tunnels leading to secluded places] in these places."
"The nature of the tunnel is still undetermined. But according to our research, if it is left exposed, the number of strange outbreaks in the state will increase dramatically."
"So, we must use the Xuantian Locking Array to suppress it."
The answer Li Fan got from the First Jinglun was completely unexpected.
"When Wanxian Island was still there, we never found this tunnel at the bottom of the island. It was only based on the number of strange things reported by Tianji Hall in Congyunhai every year that we concluded that it must exist here."
“Who would have thought that it would be at the bottom of the place where the former Dharma Master Chuan Fa preached.”
"The great power of the Heavenly Venerable, even if there is only a little bit of residual power, after a thousand years, it can still effectively block the entrance to the Tunnel. But now that the Wanxian Island is gone, this Tunnel must be blocked."
"The existence of strange things is no secret, but few people know about it, and the strange things will spread. In order not to cause panic and to ensure the stability of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, it needs to be kept strictly confidential."
Master Jinglun spoke slowly.
"Is this the reason why they are keeping it so secret?" Li Fan was speechless. Unexpectedly, this rather strange request was actually related to the weirdness that permeated the world.
"Is it because of this?" Diyi Jinglun looked at Li Fan coldly.
"Island Master Li, please don't underestimate the weirdness. They are not as easy to deal with as you think."
There was something in his words, but he didn't intend to elaborate further.
Upon hearing this, Li Fan put away the contempt on his face and nodded slightly.
Changing the subject, he asked, "Then why did you suddenly appoint me as the acting island owner? This sea of clouds..."
Diyi Jinglun interrupted Li Fan's question and shook his head slowly: "It seems that in ancient times, the intrigues within the sect were very serious. Island Master Li is a bit too suspicious."
"Don't worry, everything is done in accordance with the rules and procedures."
"According to the rules that have been passed down since ancient times, when the entire structure of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance in a certain area is destroyed, the highest-ranking cultivator among the surviving cultivators in that area will automatically inherit the first administrative position."
"If there are several monks with the same position, the actual candidate will be determined based on their actual combat capabilities."
“Fellow Daoist, you killed four Nascent Souls with your own strength, even though you used the excuse of using external objects. However, these excuses may be good for fooling others, but it is still a bit too idealistic to deceive us, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.”
"We have an absolutely detailed and precise assessment of the lethality of every item sold in the Tianxuan Mirror."
“Although it is indeed possible to kill Yuanying with a Jindan, it is absolutely impossible to do it as cleanly and neatly as you did before without leaving any trace.”
"Among the surviving monks in Congyunhai, you are the strongest. Who else but you can be the acting island master?"
Diyi Jinglun looked at Li Fan with a smile and replied.
Li Fan felt a little heavy-hearted, and his face showed an embarrassed look as if he was exposed, with his face turning pale and blue.
"In that case, I thought too much."
"In that case, I'll take it!"
He said frankly.
No matter how true or false it is, Diyi Jinglun has already said this. If Li Fan doesn't agree, he may not be able to leave this room.
Seeing that Li Fan was so sensible, Diyi Jinglun nodded slightly with satisfaction.
"The blockade of Congyun Sea will not be lifted until Congyun Fairy City is built."
"Of course, the headquarters will also send corresponding monks to assist you in the reconstruction of Cong Yunhai."
"But due to some reasons, the number won't be too large. There will only be a small amount of support in a few special areas such as the long-distance teleportation array."
"The most important thing is to rely on yourselves."
"I will also send a deputy to assist you in completing the reconstruction of the Immortal City."
"You can ask him for any materials you need for the construction project."
"The relevant material list will be sent to you later. What you need to do most is to coordinate and plan the surviving monks in Congyun Sea, and guide and supervise the reconstruction of Congyun City as soon as possible."
…
After giving some instructions, Diyi Jinglun let Li Fan go.
Afterwards, a monk named Zhou Kebao found Li Fan and brought the list of approved materials.
"Island Master Li, this is the detailed list of items that have been approved for this project. Please have a look." The fat Zhou Kebao said to Li Fan with a smile.
Li Fan took the list and looked through it carefully.
It takes a long time to read the long list even briefly.
The various items that have been seen and not seen before are dazzling.
Only the name is marked, without specifying the specific purpose.
It makes people confused and not know what is going on.
In other aspects, Li Fan is an amateur.
However, anything related to the formation could not escape Li Fan's eyes.
One of the most important functions of Congyun Fairy City is to connect the teleportation array nodes in various places.
Including the long-distance teleportation array, there were originally 11,687 teleportation arrays on the Wanxian Island.
Li Fan found the special material for building the teleportation array: [Xuankong Stone], and started to calculate the quantity based on the quantity listed in the list.
After a moment, Li Fan discovered the trick.
If we only use the materials listed on the list, we won't be able to meet the requirements for building all the small teleportation arrays.
Not to mention the need for a long-distance teleportation array.
Li Fan's face immediately darkened: "Fellow Daoist Zhou, is there something wrong with your list? Can you check it again?"
There was naked murderous intent in his eyes, without any concealment.
Zhou Kebao was stunned at first, then he took the list and looked at it again.
While checking, he muttered: "Wrong? Impossible? Could it be that you, Island Master Li..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard Li Fan say in a cold voice: "Fellow Daoist Zhou, I have issued a military order in front of the First Jinglun."
"If we fail to complete the task on time, I'm afraid the consequences will not be good."
"I am a petty person. I will never let go of any grudge!"
"If there is really no hope of completing the mission by then, I don't mind fighting those who are secretly obstructing me and dying together with them!"
Zhou Kebao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and patted his chest and said, "Master Li, don't get so excited. I'll check it carefully again!"
After saying that, he no longer dared to look at Li Fan and left in a hurry.
Li Fan snorted coldly, closed his eyes and waited.
After half a day, Zhou Kebao came to him with a brand new list.
"Haha, Island Master Li has a sharp eye! He is definitely wrong!"
"The previous list was the initial budget, and it did lack some supplies compared to the final list."
Li Fan took the new list and found that the quantity of supplies on it was more than half more than before.
