Chapter 609: Life and Death in the Immortal Ruins
If it were under normal circumstances, the monk sleeping in the Medicine King True Cauldron would be protected by the [Great Dream Spring and Autumn Formation]. If Li Fan wanted to get what he wanted, he would probably have to work harder.
However, after forcibly leaving [Xianxu], the formation was more or less affected.
More importantly, Li Fan also knew that a cultivator from the Medicine King Sect named Linghu Chang did not have time to fully integrate into the [Great Dream Spring and Autumn Formation].
The room he was in was not sealed and there was still a slight gap.
If he could grasp the memories in his mind, the Medicine King True Cauldron would be almost completely defenseless to Li Fan.
Those cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage will not be disturbed and will be allowed to continue sleeping.
As for those below the Nascent Soul stage, if necessary, they can be killed one by one by using the [Binding Insects] magical power.
Of course, even these disciples of the Medicine King Sect all possess many magical weapons and elixirs.
But for Li Fan today, these material possessions are actually of little use.
What he really cared about was the Medicine King Cauldron itself, which was able to cross the void.
As well as a set of signposts within the Yaowang Sect that can lead to another world of immortal cultivation.
"Even with the existence of the Immortal Ruins, I cannot escape from the Xuanhuang Realm for the time being. But one day, I will leave here."
"Having the signpost in hand is also a way to prepare for a rainy day."
Moreover, there was another reason why Li Fan came here from afar.
I just want to see with my own eyes the existence of [Xianxu].
Li Fan looked up at the sky, calmed his thoughts, and waited for the arrival of Medicine King Zhending.
While waiting, he felt the unique [Immortal-suppressing power] of the Cangwu Abyss, and couldn't help but secretly marvel at the wonders of creation.
Unlike prohibitions and magic arrays that weaken the strength of cultivators, this [Immortal Suppression Power] seems to scale the realm.
With his current cultivation level at the early Nascent Soul stage, although his strength seems to have no limit, he can only exert power equivalent to that of the Golden Core stage.
"It's quite strange, just like a mortal entering the land of giants. Although his height remains the same, compared with the surrounding things, he has become a real 'small man'."
Just as Li Fan was sighing inwardly, the ruins of the building floating beside him seemed to be blown by the wind, and slowly moved with a creaking sound.
It was about to crash into where Li Fan was.
There was no sign at all, and it seemed to have a life of its own, very strange.
Li Fan frowned slightly, and instead of destroying the ruins, he chose to avoid them.
But, just as the ruins passed by him, Li Fan seemed to have discovered something and his eyes fixed.
His figure flashed by and instantly landed on one of the stone pillars.
I don’t know how many years have passed, but the patterns engraved on the stone pillars have long since become blurred.
Even the stone pillars themselves have been mostly worn away.
However, Li Fan, who possessed the secret technique of [Transformation of the Divine Dao], was able to remember all his past experiences firmly in his mind.
Therefore, even though only some incomplete lines were left, the pattern on the stone pillar still seemed familiar to Li Fan.
"This is……"
Li Fan's eyes revealed a strange color.
Compare the pattern in front of you with the one you remember seeing somewhere before.
Exactly!
Li Fan looked up again and looked at the ruins of buildings in the surrounding [Lost City] that were like a vast ocean, feeling a little surprised.
"Could it be that these buildings all come from the fog?"
In the maze where he obtained the "Chaos" secret, Li Fan had seen twelve large ruins.
The patterns carved on the buildings in those ruins are exactly the same as those here.
Li Fan thought of the origin of Cangwu Abyss again.
On a certain day of a certain month of a certain year, all the mountains and rivers in Cangwu Prefecture disappeared, leaving only this abyss shaped like a foot.
Li Fan couldn't help but look towards the bottom of the abyss.
It is dark and deep, with no end in sight.
"Cangwu Abyss is connected to the depths of the white fog?"
"In ancient times, there was no Yuan-devouring White Mist in the Xuanhuang Realm. But now, the white mist has cut the entire world apart..."
"Where did they come from? What were the identities of those monks who died tragically in the White Mist?"
In an instant, countless questions flooded Li Fan's mind.
However, before he had time to think carefully, a meteor streaked across the night sky, instantly illuminating the sky.
“Here it comes!”
Li Fan looked up and saw this thin line falling straight towards him.
At the same time, an inexplicable throbbing arose in my heart.
It was like encountering a natural enemy, or like facing a terrible disaster.
I felt sad and my body couldn't stop shaking.
Li Fan knew that it was the influence of the remaining aura of the Immortal Ruins left by the Medicine King's True Cauldron which had just escaped a disaster.
Slightly away from the landing point, Li Fan's eyes never left the fireball in the sky.
The Medicine King Cauldron fell at an extremely fast speed. In just a few breaths, it descended from the sky to the ground and continued to fall towards the Cangwu Abyss.
After entering the abyss, its speed slowly slowed down and the flames outside gradually went out.
When the creatures in the abyss sensed the breath of the Immortal Ruins, they all subconsciously panicked and dodged, actively making way for it.
Still at the same position as in the previous life, the Medicine King True Cauldron stopped steadily.
After sending out an inexplicable distress wave to the outside world, the Medicine King Cauldron gradually became transparent and disappeared into the air.
Li Fan did not act in a hurry. He just waited until the aura of the immortal ruins attached to the Medicine King True Cauldron was completely eliminated before he controlled the Small Medicine King Cauldron and entered it.
With the exploration experience of Xiao Heng and others in the previous life, Li Fan had a smooth journey and came to the half-open door of Linghu Chang's room.
At this time, Linghu Chang was lying on the ground, falling into a deep sleep.
"It's also the early stage of Yuanying, but..."
Li Fan narrowed his eyes slightly, and the shadow of the Five Elements Cave Heaven suddenly appeared behind him.
The power of the cave heaven realm was like a series of shackles that pinned Linghu Chang down.
After taking away all the items on him, Li Fan used his strength.
A moment later, before he could even let out a scream, Linghu Chang's body was turned into powder under the tremendous force of the cave.
And the Nascent Soul in his Dantian was not harmed at all under Li Fan's precise control of power.
With his body destroyed, the sleeping Linghu Chang suddenly woke up.
Looking at his own small purple body that looked like a baby, he didn't understand what was happening.
"Who are you?"
Linghu Chang stared at Li Fan with half hatred and half fear.
The only thing that answered him was a flash of purple lightning before his eyes.
"Zixiao Sect..."
Linghu Chang's words were full of disbelief.
The next moment, he lost consciousness and fainted.
After a while, Li Fan, who had already completely received Linghu Chang's memory, waved his sleeves and temporarily suppressed the other party's Nascent Soul in his own cave.
Continuing to go deeper, he arrived at the deepest part of the Medicine King True Cauldron, stood outside the [Gate of Life and Death], and began to think carefully.
"The gate of life and death is difficult to break even if it is in harmony with the Dao."
"Only by practicing the [Eternal Life Green Power] manifested by the Medicine King Sect's true teaching, the 'Ji Shi Chang Sheng Jing', can one reverse the gate of life and death in an instant and enter it."
"The Book of Longevity and Saving the World, the Hedao Kungfu."
If an ordinary cultivator suddenly obtained a Dao-integrating technique, he would probably be so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.
However, Li Fan's heart was calm at this moment.
Although this "Jiangshi Changsheng Jing" is a Taoist method, the method of practice is aimed at saving the world, curing diseases and saving lives.
Saving others is saving yourself. The more people you save, the faster your cultivation will be.
Even to break through the barrier of cultivation, one needs to meet a certain number of conditions for saving people.
The compatibility with Li Fan is very low, so there is no need to change the subject.
But after all, it is a Hedao technique, so its value must be high. If all the people of Yaowang Sect were killed, this technique would become a lone copy known only to Li Fan. But there is no need to do so. These people of Yaowang Sect have a more important purpose.
The main problem now is that there are too many people practicing the "Ji Shi Chang Sheng Jing", a total of 462 people.
Li Fan tried to practice this technique, but the spiritual energy in his body seemed to be completely blocked, and there was no movement at all.
Even getting started is almost impossible.
After pondering for a moment, he came up with an idea.
According to Linghu Chang's memory, Li Fan found the rooms of some disciples of the Medicine King Sect who had reached the Golden Core level.
Break in and forcibly extract a portion of the [Eternal Green Power] from their bodies.
Then these immortal green forces are mixed together to condense into an energy body.
Li Fan separated a wisp of spiritual consciousness and penetrated into the green energy body. He stretched his hands and feet and adapted for a moment.
"The immortal green energy keeps overflowing, and it can't last long. But it should be enough."
With a thought in his mind, his energy body condensed into the appearance of a green Nascent Soul.
Li Fan plunged into the wall of life and death.
Just like passing through a gray film, the next moment, Li Fan saw the scene around him and thought he had flown out of the Medicine King Cauldron and returned to the Cangwu Abyss.
Because the scenery displayed all around looked exactly the same as outside the Medicine King True Cauldron.
It turned out that the inner wall of the Medicine King Cauldron had become completely transparent.
There were only two skeletons on the field.
One was standing and the other was lying on the ground.
"The one standing should be Liu Ruchen. The one lying on the ground should be Huang Lao."
"In order to escape from the Immortal Ruins, Liu Ruchen had no choice but to sacrifice the life essences of some cultivators in the sect."
Li Fan thought to himself as he recalled what he had seen and heard in his previous life.
"Only bones are left. He can't be alive."
Li Fan slowly approached Liu Ruchen.
When he came to Liu Ruchen's corpse, a phantom suddenly appeared beside Li Fan.
He was shocked, but then Li Fan realized that the other party had no breath of life and was just a projection.
The [Eternal Green Power] that continued to overflow from Li Fan's body was absorbed by the phantom.
As if it had passed some kind of verification, after a while, the shadow said: "Medicine King Sect disciples, listen to my orders."
"When you see this image, I should have already fallen."
"I was wrong."
"I predicted the coming of the great catastrophe of heaven and earth, but I didn't expect that there was something even more terrifying above our Xuanhuang Realm."
"The Ten Immortal Sects clearly knew everything, but they just sat there and watched us die."
"This hatred is irreconcilable!"
"But you must remember that the Ten Sects are too powerful to be defeated. After returning to the Xuanhuang Realm, temporarily seek refuge in the [Eternal Life Valley] and try to preserve your strength. Wait until the catastrophe is completely over, and then act accordingly."
"After I die, my son Liu Yihang will temporarily take over the position of Sect Master, and the elders will assist him. When he breaks through to the Spiritual Transformation stage, he will officially take over as Sect Master."
"At this difficult time, when life and death are at stake, there can be no more internal fighting!"
…
The phantom mechanically spoke Liu Ruchen's last words. Li Fan stood there, listening quietly.
After a long time, when all the wills were completed, the shadow turned into starlight and disappeared.
Only a glowing diamond-shaped crystal remained in its place.
Li Fan knew that was the control core of the Medicine King Cauldron.
Originally Liu Ruchen was going to give it to Liu Yihang, but Li Fan, who had foresight, got there first.
The energy body used the control core to open the wall of life and death, and Li Fan walked into the main control room.
It took seven days to refine it, and Li Fan gained control of the Medicine King True Cauldron.
Although there are many functions that cannot be used temporarily due to the lack of the Longevity Green Power, most of the basic functions can be used.
Li Fan retrieved the images recorded by Yaowang Zhending.
It is the same as what Xiao Heng and others saw in the previous life.
In the endless void, the ball of light representing the Xuanhuang Realm looks so small.
And the immortal ruins above that seemed to swallow everything were so terrifying.
The screen continues to play.
The Medicine King Cauldron that flew out of the Xuanhuang Realm couldn't be controlled and kept falling towards the Immortal Ruins.
Even though countless rays of light emerged from the cauldron and it wanted to break free from the suction of the Immortal Ruins, it was unable to escape.
Getting closer and closer to the Immortal Ruins.
It was about to fall completely.
At this moment, countless different spots of light suddenly emerged from the cauldron, as if it had infinite power in an instant.
The Medicine King Cauldron changed its direction of movement amidst the continuous roar.
But Li Fan's entire attention at this moment was focused on the image of the Immortal Ruins recorded by the Medicine King Cauldron.
Perhaps because he was close enough, Li Fan was able to see the vague appearance of the Immortal Ruins.
The desolate land is littered with ruins.
There seemed to be a tall figure standing among them.
Look down quietly.
