Chapter 677: Planting seeds and waiting for flowers to bloom
"Will this kind of thing happen? Are you bullying me because I don't know anything?" Li Fan still had a look of disbelief and an unyielding look on his face.
After the shop owner explained again and again and the monks who were watching the fun echoed him, he accepted it with some doubts.
"So, the beautiful and gorgeous Heavenly Spirit Flower has now completely disappeared?"
Li Fan was a little lost and regretful, saying: "If I had known this, I would have come to see her beauty a few years ago!"
"I heard that the flower of the heavenly spirit has different petals. After it blooms, a special scene will appear on each petal. It may be a green mountain range, a surging river, or even snow falling from the sky. One flower gathers the beautiful scenery from all over the world. It is blessed by the spirit of heaven and is beautiful beyond words..."
Li Fan's narration instantly evoked the memories of the monks present.
Most of them were local cultivators from Tianlingzhou, and they had all seen the stunning beauty of Tianlinghua back then. At that moment, everyone was talking, and they sighed even more.
What you can't get is always the best.
The more they thought about it, the more regrettable it seemed. The monks shook their heads and sighed.
Seeing that the atmosphere was already building to a peak, Li Fan said loudly, "If you can't see such a treasure with your own eyes, it would be a great regret in your life! There are countless talented people in the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance. I don't believe that the Heavenly Spirit Flower was not preserved intact!"
"I am offering a reward. I am willing to exchange a pill of immortality that can extend my life by three hundred years for a chance to see the original heavenly spirit flower in person!"
As he spoke, in full view of everyone, Li Fan took out a pill and placed it in the palm of his hand.
The voice spread in an instant, and after seeing the pill in Li Fan's hand and feeling the excitement in their hearts, it caused an uproar.
A treasure that can extend one's life by three hundred years is extremely precious. However, this person is willing to use it just to exchange for a chance to meet!
"Fellow Daoist, you are truly a man of character. I admire you! Don't worry, I have a friend who specialized in growing Tianling flowers. Maybe there are some Tianling flowers that look like those back then that have been preserved."
"I'll ask for you too!"
…
The crowd suddenly became lively.
The flower shop owner's eyes flashed, and he picked up the communication talisman and started contacting.
Li Fan stood among the crowd, waiting quietly.
The result was consistent with what he expected.
After a while, everyone showed regretful expressions. In Tianling City, where the news spread, no one still preserved the Tianling Flower in its original appearance.
Li Fan sighed, looking extremely disappointed.
"If I can't get what I want, I won't be able to rest in peace even after I die!"
"My reward is valid for a long time. I would like to trouble you to find out for me!" Li Fan bowed to the crowd, and then walked away with a sigh.
Although this incident seems insignificant, it is after all a rare interesting thing in the rather deserted Tianling City after the war.
So in the casual chat of everyone, the matter of "the disappearance of the original heavenly spirit flower", which originally did not attract many people's attention, began to gradually become known to people.
No matter what, there were quite a few cultivators who had seen or heard of the beauty of the Heavenly Spirit Flower in those days.
As this interesting story spread widely, their memories of the Tianling Flower also resurfaced from the depths of their minds.
"Oh, it's a pity indeed."
"How could I have never seen such a precious treasure before? Once you miss it, you will never see it again!"
More and more monks couldn't help but have such thoughts in their minds.
The instigator of all this, Li Fan, was looking through the Tianxuan Mirror at the increasing discussions about the Tianling Flower in various places, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Next, we need to let the emotions ferment for a while. The ordinary cultivators have already made a good start. With the Medicine King Sect's disciples adding fuel to the fire, there shouldn't be much of a problem."
"However, if we want to really drive up the value of the Heavenly Spirit Flower, we still have to rely on the real dignitaries of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance."
A gleam of light flashed in Li Fan's eyes, and he took out the communication talisman that Shuo Feng had left for him.
"Brother Shuo, how are you these days?"
After exchanging pleasantries, Li Fan got straight to the point: "I have something that I would like to trouble Brother Shuo to find out for me."
"Heavenly Spirit Flower..."
After sending his statement, Li Fan waited quietly for the other party's reply.
Not long after, Shuo Feng sent a message: "Tian Ling Hua, I seem to have heard of it before. It's a small matter, I'll ask for you."
Li Fan smiled slightly: "In that case, I would like to thank Brother Shuo in advance!"
There was no sound from Shuo Feng's side for the time being.
"Next, we just need to wait for the flowers to bloom."
There was no rush to return to Changsheng Valley. Li Fan browsed through the major and minor events that had happened in the Xuanhuang Realm in the past two years in the Tianxuan Mirror, without missing a single detail.
Li Fan, who is familiar with the course of history, can naturally find those unusual changes that have been deliberately hidden through clues.
For example, the information about the ruins of Chao Yuanzong in Jiushanzhou, which he had always cared about, disappeared overnight. It was as if there had never been a cave house flying into the sky and attracting monks to explore. The search turned up only a few scattered records about the ancient Chao Yuanzong.
For example, some monks in various martial arts halls were recruited and sent to unknown places. Because of these vacant positions, there was a lot of competition and commotion.
…
Li Fan memorized all the clues in his mind.
"We still have to solve the authority issue. The information that Bai Shen can collect is too little. There are too many restrictions."
After most of the day, Li Fan stopped temporarily.
After a moment's silence, he sent another message to Shuo Feng: "Brother Shuo, I recently learned a magical power. Thinking back to the time when I sparred with you, I can't help but feel a little itchy. I wonder if you have time to compete with me again recently?"
This time Shuo Feng responded quickly.
"Oh? What? After not seeing you for more than two years, are you sure you can beat me? I forgot to tell you that I have now broken through to the Golden Core stage. Even if you attack with all your strength at the Nascent Soul stage, I'm afraid you may not be able to defeat me."
"There's no point in saying more. You'll know once you try it." Li Fan answered very straightforwardly.
These words instantly aroused Shuo Feng's fighting spirit.
"Come here." He sent a direction and gestured.
Li Fan took a look and found that he was in a mountain range outside Tianquan City, Tianquan Prefecture.
"Okay, I'll be right there. Brother Shuo, please wait a moment."
"It's okay. I've been here for the past few days." Shuo Feng replied, and then there was no further words.
Li Fan came out of the Tianxuan Mirror and came to Tianquan Prefecture through the teleportation array.
Tianquan Prefecture is dotted with caves of the powerful people of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
The same is true for the position left by Shuo Feng.
Li Fan was in the sky, looking at the traces of protective magic arrays. He carefully bypassed the middle of the array and headed straight for the target location.
