Chapter 643: Flying Stones Falling into the Deep Sea
"Are you sure you can advance to the Nascent Soul stage within ten years?" Zhou Qingang looked at the complacent He Zhenghao, a hint of surprise flashing across his face.
This is not pretend.
After a careful look, it was clear that He Zhenghao might not be lying. There was a mysterious aura hidden in him. It was extremely secretive. If He Zhenghao hadn't exposed it himself, and the "Zhou Qingang" at this moment was actually transformed from Li Fan himself, it would really not be easy to detect.
Replaying the records of the Dao Stone in his mind, Li Fan instantly found out the origin of this change. It was He Xinxin who gave He Zhenghao a simple white jade before reluctantly leaving, and told him to put it in his Dantian for nourishment.
"I haven't practiced properly at all. Just relying on this white jade, I am sure I can advance from the Golden Core to the Nascent Soul in such a short time..."
"This white jade is indeed a rare treasure! I'm afraid it is very rare even for the Heng family of Tianyuzhou. He Xinxin really did his best to save his old father's life."
"What a pity..."
"Zhou Qingang" looked at He Zhenghao with an imperceptible cold gaze and sneered in his heart.
He pretended to be very surprised and said, "Your progress is so fast? It's really unexpected. It seems that your talent in cultivation is much higher than mine and Gao Yuan's."
A trace of embarrassment flashed across He Zhenghao's face, but he quickly covered it up and said shamelessly: "Haha, Daoist friend, don't be depressed. The cultivation level of cultivators like me is not only affected by talent, but also closely related to factors such as diligence and opportunity. Daoist friend's talent is already a little bit worse, and now the opportunity is in front of you, you must not miss it!"
Listening to He Zhenghao's persuasion, Zhou Qingang lowered his head and seemed to fall into deep thought.
Just when He Zhenghao thought that the other party had been persuaded and was secretly delighted, Zhou Qingang sighed and rejected his suggestion.
"As fellow Daoist said, if you want to better serve the Secret Envoy, your own strength is very important. But opportunities often coexist with dangers. As for me..." Zhou Qingang shook his head with a look of regret.
"I have never been blessed! Even if there is any opportunity in Chaoyuan Sect, it will not be my turn! I'd better stay in Congyunhai and do my job well."
"Waiting for the secret envoy..."
Zhou Qingang paused deliberately, then said, "My Lord never mistreats his subordinates. He sees our hard work and might reward us with something that will help us improve our realm!"
"But I still want to thank you for your kindness, Brother He!" Zhou Qingang bowed, turned around and left the Governor's Hall.
Looking at Zhou Qingang's back, He Zhenghao's face was uncertain: "This kid is worthy of being the master's confidant, he really knows something! It seems that I made a good choice. Since he is unwilling to leave Cong Yunhai, it means that there is not only no danger here, but also great benefits can be obtained..."
The last trace of worry in his heart was eliminated, and He Zhenghao made up his mind completely.
Looking at He Zhenghao's gloomy yet endlessly greedy eyes, Li Fan knew what he was thinking.
"The greedier you are, the more stupid you become, and the more stupid you become, the greedier you become."
"It's a vicious cycle. The He Zhenghao in this world is no longer the Daoist He I'm familiar with!"
"The difference in experiences has such a profound impact on the shaping and influence of personality."
Li Fan pondered for a moment, and then he had some vague understanding in his heart.
"Perhaps, it has something to do with the greedy and plundering foundation of the new law."
Not thinking about it anymore, for the next period of time, Li Fan pretended to be like Zhou Qingang in the past, handling many chores in an orderly manner.
The "Secret Word Envoy Li Fan", that is, the clone with a changed appearance, stayed deep in the secret room of the Buzheng Hall, claiming to be in seclusion for cultivation.
While quietly swapping his original body and clone, Li Fan also began to secretly create a puppet in the image of Zhou Qingang.
Deep in the Congyun Sea, he manipulated the Earth Fire Returning Origin Formation, consuming some ordinary materials, and built a skeleton puppet. Then he used the method of [Qixuan Zhenling Transformation] to refine a clone and attached a layer of skin and flesh to the surface of the skeleton puppet.
He also attached a trace of his own divine consciousness to it.
Finally, he successfully created a puppet body that looked exactly like Zhou Qingang.
After transferring all the clothes, storage rings and other items, Li Fan took a last look at the azure sea of clouds and shook his head.
"It's time to leave." he thought.
He changed back to his original appearance and rushed towards the location of the secret realm of Changsheng Valley without looking back.
The puppet Zhou Qingang, under the control of Li Fan's remaining spiritual consciousness, returned to Congyun Fairy City alone.
Because Zhou Qingang was usually a serious person, even though his expression seemed a little dull, it did not arouse the suspicion of other cultivators for a while.
Moreover, Li Fan also intentionally reduced the number of meetings with outsiders. When they occasionally came into contact, he looked like he was busy handling government affairs at his desk.
Therefore, in the huge Congyun City, even though there were a constant stream of cultivators coming and going, no one had noticed that Zhou Qingang had already secretly completed the act of stealing the day.
Although there are still some big flaws, they will inevitably be discovered by others over time.
But the entire sea of clouds, including all the living beings within it, are about to reach the end of their lives.
Just when Li Fan himself was still halfway.
On this day, both himself and the puppet attached to his spiritual thoughts suddenly felt a palpitation.
"What is that!"
The exclamations coming one after another in Congyun City made Li Fan's heart move, and he looked up at the sky.
Suddenly, a huge black fireball appeared in the sky without any warning.
With a dark trail, it slammed towards Cong Yunhai at an angle.
"This is!" Li Fan's pupils suddenly shrank.
"Red flame?" Feeling the ambiguous breath coming from the black fireball, Li Fan was a little unsure.
The black fireball was moving at an extremely fast speed. Before the monks in Congyun Sea could react, it had already fallen from the sky into the sea.
All the sea water it touches evaporates in an instant due to the high temperature.
A huge hole first appeared in the sea, and then the black fireball violently collided with the seabed.
boom!
boom!
boom!
Amidst the huge roar, the entire sea of clouds began to shake violently. Even the high-rise Congyun City was swept by the shock wave soon after, swaying like duckweed in the wind.
Under the violent impact, a huge tsunami swept towards the surroundings, centered on the place where the black fireball fell.
The monks even saw that those huge waves that were hundreds of meters high were actually mixed with half black flames.
Wherever the huge waves passed, countless islands were reduced to ashes in an instant due to the combination of water and fire!
