"A grave mistake!" Before Shang Shaojun could respond, Sacred Embryo Li Fan coldly rebuked him.
"The source of this power is not close at hand. It lies deep within the Star Sea!"
"Ah?"
Hearing Li Fan’s words, Shang Shaojun was utterly astonished.
"I know you do not believe . But that does not matter; once I succeed in breaking free from the shackles of the Ruins of Immortality and leave the Xuanhuang World, you will see that I am right!"
"I implore you, Young Master, to lend your aid!" Sacred Embryo Li Fan said, his face serious as he bowed deeply.
Shang Shaojun dared not accept such a gesture from Li Fan and hurriedly stopped him.
"Why such extremities, Brother Li? It is rely a matter of so supplies; considering our relationship, it is but a matter of speaking."
"Yan Huan!" Shang Shaojun called his trusted aide to his side and instructed him to handle the matter.
"Rest assured, everything will be ready in no more than three days."
"Too slow! A godsend, once missed, does not co again. One day!" Sacred Embryo Li Fan said unapologetically.
Shang Shaojun pondered for a mont, then clenched his teeth, "Fine! One day it is!"
Then he seed to be telepathically instructing sothing.
After all this, he turned to look at Li Fan, appearing as though he wanted to say sothing but hesitated.
"Young Master, if you have anything to say, feel free to speak!"
"Brother Li, do you really want to…" Shang Shaojun still seed sowhat incredulous.
Sacred Embryo Li Fan smiled slightly, then began to explain his judgnt, "The imnse power causing this disturbance in the Xuanhuang World originates from the depths of the starry sky. It is entirely different from the suction force that has always attracted the Xuanhuang World."
"In the past, venturing out of the Xuanhuang World without the protection of the world ant certain death for cultivators like us, even those in the Immortal Realm. Perhaps only beings with the strength of the Celestial Dharma Bearer could barely resist. But now it’s different…"
Before Li Fan, a pond suddenly appeared.
In the center of the water, a giant vortex spun rapidly, the turbulent water devouring everything around it.
Sacred Embryo Li Fan pointed gently.
Outside this vortex, another vortex of equal size suddenly appeared.
The forces of the two vortices interfered with each other, and the direction of the water flow beca unstable.
Shang Shaojun imdiately understood Li Fan’s aning.
"But, all these are your conjectures, right? If they are wrong..."
"To hear the Dao in the morning and die in the evening would be enough." Sacred Embryo Li Fan said calmly, devoid of any fear.
"To miss this rare opportunity, even if I were to live, I would regret it for the rest of my life."
"Thus, I must go." Li Fan said resolutely.
"I want to see what kind of being could possess such imnse power." His eyes sparkled with light.
Shang Shaojun remained silent.
The Qingxuan Army’s efficiency is trustworthy.
In just one day, they had prepared all the materials that Li Fan needed.
"Beyond the Star Sea lie nurous dangers. Brother Li, aren’t you going to make more preparations? Just planning to traverse the starry sky with these?" Shang Shaojun wondered worriedly to himself.
"If there was enough ti, naturally it would be best to build a robust Flying Boat. But ti does not permit it. We can only manage with an Immortal Alliance Dustcrosser Boat for now."
The Dustcrosser Boat, the sole designated Magic Treasure currently used by the Immortal Alliance for traveling to and from the Enshrouded Realm of White Fog.
In the 114th era, Li Fan had traveled to the Roaring Abyss with Ji Hongdao aboard this boat.
The Dustcrosser Boat, forged from many rare materials, is equipped with nurous Array Techniques for protection, and the Eternal Immortal Fortress possesses only two of these boats.
For Shang Shaojun to offer one shows his true loyalty.
"But as long as we can survive past the boundary of the Xuanhuang World, where the battle between the two powers is fiercest, there should be no more danger." Sacred Embryo Li Fan seized the last monts to modify the Dustcrosser Boat.
There was another aspect he did not disclose.
The Sacred Embryo, Li Fan, dared to traverse the starry sky largely because of his own Foundation Establishnt Strange Object, the Black Sword Sky Oddity!
As a physical manifestation of the Law, the Black Sword was far more indestructible than the vast majority of entities within the Xuanhuang World.
Moreover, unlike general protective materials that gradually deteriorate, the Black Sword could even use external forces to continuously "temper" its body, thus making itself more adaptable.
"It was all thanks to the New Technique of Dharma Transmission. Even if I abandon my physical body, as long as the Law of the Sword remains unextinguished, I can survive in the void indefinitely,"
Full of confidence, the Sacred Embryo, Li Fan, also considered various unexpected situations he might encounter after leaving the Xuanhuang World.
For instance...
The law of the Black Sword Sky Oddity was a physical manifestation of the sword law of the Xuanhuang World.
If he were to leave the Xuanhuang World, without the support of the world, would his strength be greatly reduced? Beco extrely fragile?
Furthermore, the Celestial Doctor had once ntioned that outside the Xuanhuang World, in the void, he should be wary of a certain "disease."
This disease, Li Fan had seen on Han Zhong as well.
Jet-Black Decay, corroding the Divine Soul.
Even the Infinite Fulfillnt and Emptiness thod, which repairs the Divine Soul, had no slight alleviating effect on it.
The Sacred Embryo, Li Fan, did not expect himself to be immune to this disease, but only hoped to use a large amount of precious materials that nourish the Divine Soul to extend the ti he could persist in the void.
Another day swiftly passed.
The tremors of the Xuanhuang World, now visible to the naked eye, were about to cease.
The cultivators of the Xuanhuang World all appeared relieved as if they had survived a great catastrophe. Many were still frightened, fearing that the terrifying disaster might strike again.
Outside the Roaring Abyss, the Sacred Embryo, Li Fan, was fully prepared.
The Dustcrosser Boat had changed drastically from its original appearance, and Li Fan bid farewell to the people of the Qingxuan Army, slowly stepping into the Flying Boat.
Watching Li Fan’s departing figure, Shang Shaojun hesitated to speak.
He even felt an irrepressible urge to go with him, to break out of the Xuanhuang World and explore the secret behind that mighty power.
As a cultivator, how could he not be curious about such a level of power?
But...
After all, he was not a person with no attachnts. There were too many things to consider.
Shang Shaojun suddenly felt envious of the figure on the Dustcrosser Boat.
"Young Master, at this mont, do you want to join in disregarding life and death?"
As if he could read minds, just before departing, he suddenly sent a telepathic ssage.
Before Shang Shaojun could reply, the Sacred Embryo, Li Fan, chuckled and said, "That wouldn’t do."
Shang Shaojun was slightly startled.
"Young Master, do not forget, there is still a secret threat lurking in the Xuanhuang World."
"If both you and I were to leave, wouldn’t we be giving free rein to those villains?"
"I thought you had cast this matter aside in the blink of an eye," Shang Shaojun muttered to himself.
The Dustcrosser Boat slowly ascended.
The voice of the Sacred Embryo, Li Fan, echoed in Shang Shaojun’s ears.
"The future of the Xuanhuang World and the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals relies on you, Young Master."
"If I am fortunate enough to survive this great danger, I will definitely return to lend you a helping hand!"
Shang Shaojun followed the Dustcrosser Boat, leaving the White Mist and watching it disappear into the sky.
He felt a sense of loss in his heart.
Although he had not known Li Fan for long, both his strength and deanor deeply impressed him.
"Survive well."
Shang Shaojun silently said to himself.
