Chapter 59: The sea turns into mulberry fields
When he saw the red figure, countless pieces of information suddenly appeared in Li Fan's mind.
The soul of heaven and earth is the concrete manifestation of a certain law between heaven and earth.
When certain conditions are met, the Soul of Heaven and Earth will come into being and appear in a certain area.
If it is said that God has murderous intentions, he has made a plan to eliminate the immortal cultivators.
Then the spirit of heaven and earth is the specific executor of the plan.
They have no thoughts of their own and only act according to their given instincts.
They are the law itself, and slaughtering cultivators is as easy as killing chickens and sheep.
Their mission is to destroy those immortal cultivators who rebel against heaven and earth.
For cultivators, the Spirit of Heaven and Earth is extremely dangerous.
Once you are targeted, it basically means death.
But at the same time…
As the embodiment of the laws of the universe, the Soul of Heaven and Earth also means a great opportunity for immortal cultivators.
The so-called, to offer sacrifice to the spirits of heaven and earth and to be in harmony with the Tao with one's body.
Once a cultivator is able to sacrifice and cultivate a spirit of heaven and earth, no matter what his previous cultivation level was, he can immediately achieve the state of harmony with the Dao.
He is the natural enemy of monks, but also has unparalleled appeal to them.
At this moment, Li Fan, who witnessed the red flame of the Soul of Heaven and Earth, felt an endless greed surge from the bottom of his heart.
"Eat Him! If you eat Him, you will be able to attain the Great Dao. If you eat Him, you will be able to ascend to heaven in broad daylight!"
It was as if a starving person encountered delicious food, or as if a traveler who had walked in the desert for days and nights encountered clear lake water.
This greed was like the devil's whisper, constantly whispering in Li Fan's ears.
Driving and tempting him, he ran towards the red figure in the sky.
While Li Fan was relieving the burning sensation coming from the Canghai Pearl, he was also frantically practicing the Xuanhuang Refining Heart Mantra to dissolve the surging greed in his heart.
He knew in his heart that he was only able to observe the red flames of the Soul of Heaven and Earth with the help of the Cang Hai Pearl.
In Chi Yan's eyes, Li Fan was just an unformed consciousness of the ocean, so even after noticing Li Fan's gaze, he just glanced at him and no longer paid attention.
But if Li Fan loses his mind and attacks Chi Yan, revealing his identity as a cultivator, he will surely be killed mercilessly by Him.
Reason and desire were tearing Li Fan's soul apart.
The two extremely opposing ideas almost tore his consciousness in half.
Li Fan could only maintain the operation of the Xuanhuang Heart Refining Mantra with difficulty and maintain his Tao heart.
I don’t know how long it took before the storm caused by greed gradually subsided.
Li Fan was still frightened and didn't dare to spy again.
I am very lucky that I was able to gain insight into the secret and remain conscious.
Li Fan felt a vague sense of gain in his heart, and when his consciousness was about to leave the Canghai Pearl and return to his body, he discovered something extremely embarrassing.
It turned out that it took Li Fan nearly half a year to resolve the greed brought about by the Spirit of Heaven and Earth!
The time he had been in harmony with the Canghai Pearl's consciousness was too long, which was beyond the limit that a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage could endure.
It’s a good thing that his consciousness is still connected to the Canghai Pearl at the moment. If he returns to his body, he will probably die of old age in no time.
Just a glance from a distance had such a terrible impact.
I'm afraid my practice in this world will come to an end here.
Although Li Fan felt a little sorry, he did not regret it.
He learned the truth about Cong Yunhai's drastic changes, saw Chi Yan, the spirit of heaven and earth, and personally felt the opportunity of heaven and earth.
Li Fan’s gains were considerable.
Even if this life ended now, he could accept it.
What's more, he currently has no intention of activating [Huan Zhen] right now and ending this life.
Since he is already here, he might as well make the best of it. His consciousness has been trapped in the Canghai Pearl anyway, so he might as well take this opportunity to once again feel the energy of heaven and earth.
As long as he doesn't try to peek into the spirit of heaven and earth again, there shouldn't be any problem if he just senses the energy.
Now his body has reached the end of its lifespan. Without the nourishment of the body, his consciousness is like water without a source or a tree without roots, and will gradually be consumed in the Canghai Pearl.
According to Li Fan's estimation, it can only last for a dozen years at most.
If you can make good use of this time, you may be able to achieve something.
Li Fan drew out a trace of pure power from the Canghai Pearl to protect his body and prevent it from decaying.
Then his consciousness was immersed in Canghaizhu's perspective again.
He watched the flow of energy in heaven and earth, and he watched the rising and setting of the sun, moon and stars.
He watched the remaining lives in the sea of clouds die one after another.
He felt the cold, indifferent, and unchanging murderous intent between heaven and earth.
Just like that, five years passed in the blink of an eye.
After being anchored for 40 years, Congyunhai has completely dried up and turned into a veritable dead place.
Only on Tai'an Island, which was protected by Li Fan, were there a small number of mortals surviving.
One day, Li Fan suddenly felt something in his heart and looked up at the sky.
The red figure that had been standing in the air for more than ten years finally disappeared.
His mission has been completed, so he will naturally dissipate.
No one can tell where in the world of immortal cultivation he will appear again one day.
Li Fan stared at the direction where Chi Yan disappeared, and his mind once again sank into the Canghai Pearl.
As time went by, Li Fan's consciousness became weaker and weaker.
Thinking also becomes increasingly slow.
As if he had lost the ability to think for himself, he could only silently observe the world from the perspective of Canghaizhu.
In the second year after Chi Yan disappeared, several monks in green Taoist robes came to Cong Yunhai.
As spells were cast one after another, the long-awaited heavy rain finally began to fall from the sky.
More monks arrived later.
A cyan light blooms on the dry seabed.
Vegetation representing the breath of life appeared on the earth.
As the breeze blows, the trees rise from the ground.
In just one year, those scorched earth became full of life again.
The scene of the red flames boiling the sea not long ago was like a nightmare that was gently blown away.
The Congyun Sea has also completed its transformation into the Congyun Mountains.
A city built in the air began to be built above the Congyun Mountains.
After its completion, it attracted more and more monks from all over the world.
The Congyun Mountains are also becoming more and more lively.
Occasionally, some monks would come here to visit the only island that survived the fire disaster, trying to find opportunities.
But because of Li Fan's instinctive concealment, they didn't notice anything.
Anchored for 48 years, a cultivator in the foundation-building stage returned to Congyun Sea.
He came to the former Liuli Island, now the Liuli Mountains, with a sad look on his face.
Li Fan, who was not far away, swept his spiritual sense over and saw this scene, and he was also moved.
Li Fan knew this person.
It was Zhang Haobo who decided to migrate out of Cong Yunhai because of his inner uneasiness.
More than twenty years passed, and by some unknown chance this man became a foundation-building cultivator.
Scenes from this life flashed rapidly through Li Fan's mind, and his consciousness was about to fade away.
Before completely disappearing, Li Fan's consciousness returned to his body.
More than ten years of understanding of the energy of heaven and earth suddenly eliminated the bottleneck that prevented Li Fan from breaking through.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth poured in, and Li Fan's cultivation level instantly broke through to the late stage of Qi Refining.
A smile appeared on Li Fan's face, and then froze.
His body aged rapidly, and when a gust of wind blew, it turned into dust and dissipated between heaven and earth.
Only a skeleton was left, lying there quietly.
“Really!”
Before it dissipated, Li Fan called out in his heart.
