Above Weidu, Li Fan was silent.
According to the mories of the mortals in the city, the Tianxuan Mirror Avatar had disappeared on the second day after the disturbance in the Four States began.
After searching the area, he found no trace of the other party.
Narrowing his eyes, Li Fan did not give up and made another trip to the Hidden Cave Heaven where he had t Mo Rubing before.
There were no signs that any cultivator had visited.
"Could it be…"
"Did Mo Rubing and the Tianxuan Mirror just run off together?"
Suddenly, this thought crossed Li Fan’s mind.
The Transformation Stone Blue Light flowed, and Li Fan quickly reviewed the entire plan from beginning to end.
This ti, he did not view it from his own perspective but purely as an outsider.
Starting with the rescue of Mo Rubing.
Then acting insane and foolish, disguising himself as Sun Xingwang to gain Mo Rubing’s trust.
The two of them made a plan to extract information about the King of Mystic Sky from the Tianxuan Mirror.
The initial steps of the plan seed very successful until sothing went wrong with the last step.
...
Scene after scene flashed quickly before Li Fan’s eyes.
Watching his seemingly flawless acting and the cooperation of Mo Rubing, Li Fan’s face twitched.
Although he had a nagging feeling he might have been tricked by Mo Rubing,
Li Fan still held onto a sliver of fantasy.
He returned to the Spirit Tree Realm, forcefully interrupting the Artisan’s research and handed over the Ancient Bronze Mirror that Mo Rubing had passed to him.
"A... A World Artifact?"
The Artisan’s expression suddenly grew very strange.
He sneaked a glance at Li Fan and then cautiously chose his words, "Forgive my poor sight, but this seems…"
"What does it seem like, it’s just a regular bronze mirror. Look at this rust, goodness, no telling where it was dug up from." This life’s Fang Zaiji, having not yet witnessed Li Fan’s authority, spoke very boldly and straightforwardly.
"I understand. Thank you, Artisan friend." Li Fan’s face showed neither joy nor anger as he disappeared in a flash before the two n.
"What is this, wasting our ti…" Fang Zaiji was very displeased with Li Fan’s interruption, about to rant further when he was abruptly cut off by the Artisan.
"Better hold your tongue. The Envoy’s mood doesn’t seem too pleasant," the Artisan whispered.
...
In the underground secret chamber of the Spirit Tree Realm.
Li Fan held the small mirror, tinged with verdigris, his expression utterly frozen.
"A World Artifact…"
"Interesting."
With a pop, Li Fan slightly exerted force and crushed the bronze mirror.
"After so many reincarnations, this is the first ti I’ve been played."
By now, even though Li Fan was reluctant to admit it, he could not deny the truth anymore.
Perhaps from the beginning, Mo Rubing never took his identity as the Law King of the Mystic Sky Sect seriously. However, during their interactions, he realized that Li Fan’s strength might be worth using. Thus, he feigned compliance and used Li Fan’s power to release the Tianxuan Mirror.
Poor Li Fan still thought he acted quite convincingly.
But looking back now, there were many flaws that could not be explained rely by the madness caused by the techniques.
For instance, apart from recalling so past events, whether in his speech or behavior, Li Fan was drastically different from the real Sun Xingwang.
Also, at many critical monts, Li Fan demonstrated astounding Array Technique abilities.
And another thing…
"Perhaps it was my interaction with the Tianxuan Mirror Avatar that ultimately gave away."
The Mystic Sky Treasure Mirror was the core artifact of the Mystic Sky Sect back in the day; as one of the sect’s most important figures, the Twelve Law Kings would undoubtedly be familiar with it.
"These are two characters from the Mystic Sky Sect, teaming up to deceive , an outsider."
"Very good. Worthy of being chosen by the King of Mystic Sky, bearing the joint responsibility of saving the world..."
"Very good!"
Li Fan did not beco furiously embarrassed because he had been deceived.
Instead, he suddenly burst into laughter.
Because he finally felt genuinely intrigued.
Past continuous reincarnations had made Li Fan increasingly indifferent toward the living beings in the Xuanhuang World.
He regarded them as NPCs in a ga that could be reset and refreshed endlessly.
Having gathered enough information, he could even predict their reactions to certain statents.
Even for beings like the Celestial Doctor, Dharma Transmitter, Deserted Dao Immortal, and Faceless True Immortal.
Li Fan rely saw them as slightly stronger bosses.
But reality was ultimately not a ga.
Just like the Celestial Doctor who suddenly read minds, Mystical Sky Sect King Mo Rubing also gave Li Fan a good lesson.
Cultivators from the Xuanhuang World were not so easily fooled!
Because they were real, living beings!
"It doesn’t matter. You might have deceived for one lifeti, but can you deceive for all eternity?"
Far from being discouraged by failure, Li Fan’s eyes sparked with eagerness to try.
"Besides, this lifeti isn’t over yet!"
With a cold snort, Li Fan closed his eyes, beginning to think of a strategy.
The first thing to figure out was what exactly had happened in the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance headquarters that day.
Even after so much ti, it remained a strictly sealed mystery.
Having lost the Dharma Transmitter as an insider, Li Fan was back to his previous state of being blind.
Regarding the movents and information of the high ranks of the Immortal Alliance, he knew absolutely nothing.
"It appears that I must control so channels myself. Relying on others is no use."
"I still need to have my own Dharma Transmitter..."
"Fortunately, in this life, I have already obtained enough information. I can start experinting in stages later."
Having deeply experienced the benefits of having an insider Dharma Transmitter, Li Fan naturally would not give it up.
But that was a matter for after this lifeti.
At the mont, there was no way to inquire further. So, Li Fan resorted to his most common strategy.
One word, wait!
Many secrets, as ti passes, are no longer secrets.
Although it is an absolute secret that cannot be uncovered now, after so ti, it may not be the sa.
The level of confidentiality keeps dropping, coupled with the divine power of the Worry-Free Celestial.
Li Fan believed that as long as he was willing to pay enough when the ti ca, he could definitely uncover the truth of the event from those who had experienced it firsthand.
And all he needed to do was wait patiently.
However, during the waiting ti, Li Fan was not idle.
Many things in the Spirit Tree Realm went on as usual, but the propagation of the doctrines of the United Federation of All Realms and the Faceless True Immortal was halted.
Without finding Mo Rubing and the Tianxuan Mirror, it was best to remain vigilant.
Although Li Fan still could not clarify what had happened at the Immortal Alliance Headquarters on that day, based on the coherent disappearance of Lu Qixian and Shuo Feng’s family, it was obvious that the internal clearing of potential traitors was also enacted within the Immortal Alliance.
Many people just disappeared without a trace.
Li Fan secretly gathered a list of these missing personnel.
anwhile, he was constantly inquiring about possible survivors from the event of that day.
Five years later.
