Chapter 1765: Chapter 1437: Immortal Skin Covers New Life
A single extre survival episode might be described as a fluke.
But then it happened again…
In that instant, countless thoughts flashed through Scholar Zhu’s spirit consciousness. He even considered feeding Ma Tiande the third fruit of sentient thoughts.
However, Scholar Zhu ultimately refrained. He simply recalled the two Dao Yuan directives that erged in Ma Tiande’s spirit sea.
Clearly, among the nurous Dao Origin Symbols dancing around, only a small portion effectively functioned, leaving outsiders unable to precisely replicate them.
Scholar Zhu was not interested in these two Dao Yuan directives themselves. Even after transforming immortal to mortal, the various thods he could utilize were far superior to these directives.
What truly concerned Scholar Zhu was the “possibility” represented by Ma Tiande’s performance.
Instructions outside the existing Dao Network control system that could still invoke Dao Network power—those “hidden directives.”
The somber expression gradually faded from his face, transforming the hunched old man into a spirited and confident scholar in an instant.
With a benevolent expression, Scholar Zhu waited for the four seated individuals to awaken from the consumption of the thought fruit.
Receiving special care from Scholar Zhu, although the three from Sword Domain suffered so tornt, they ultimately erged unscathed. Their youthful innocence had long faded after absorbing countless mories of sentient beings and personally experiencing boundless slaughter.
They first expressed gratitude to Scholar Zhu, then collectively turned their gaze towards Ma Tiande, seated on the other side, no longer holding any contempt as before.
No one understands the horrors of the storm of sentient thoughts more than those who have personally experienced it.
No matter one’s origin, no matter the thods used, anyone who can swallow a fruit and remain unscathed is certainly not to be underestimated.
If one were to consu two fruits in succession and still maintain clarity of mind…
“To see this is not to miss it!”
The three from Sword Domain had silently reached a consensus during their previous exchanges of glances. If they could bring such talent back to Sword Domain, the rit would exceed even completing this trial!
Now, it all depends on whether “Ma Tiande” can really stay normal and not descend into madness.
Under the gaze of everyone present, Li Fan’s twisted and twitching expression slowly cald down. After a long ti with his eyes closed, he suddenly opened them and t the gazes of all present.
Bright as the stars, his eyes spoke of his current state.
Scholar Zhu gently applauded, seemingly jubilant: “It seems you’ve gained quite a lot this ti!”
“I must thank Scholar Zhu for making it happen.” Li Fan replied with neither humility nor arrogance.
After consuming two thought fruits, his behaviors no longer needed to follow the old patterns of Ma Tiande; all changes could be attributed to the countless sentient thoughts encapsulated within the fruits.
“Senior Brother Ma, are you interested in coming to our Sword Domain? I, Situ Tiantian, can guarantee you access to top-tier cultivation resources. If you nod in agreent, you won’t need to apply to the Governing Council, just co with us to Sword Domain first, and we’ll handle the formalities once there…” Situ Tiantian sneaked a glance at Scholar Zhu, showing only a mont of hesitation but promptly made the decision to directly invite Li Fan in Scholar Zhu’s presence.
Ji Xingdao and Zhao Xing echoed Situ Tiantian’s invitation with laughter, promising a myriad of favorable conditions.
“Despite hearing of Sword Domain’s fa for long, my ambition does not lie in Sword Dao.”
Before Scholar Zhu had a chance to outwardly react, Li Fan had already politely declined.
“Don’t be too quick to refuse, reconsider…” Scholar Zhu smiled lightly.
“My life’s ambition is solely in [Immortal Hunt]! Previously, due to my lack of strength, accomplishing it was impossible. Thus, I’ve kept it deep within my heart and never ntioned it to anyone. But today, thanks to Scholar Zhu, with two fruits consud, I’ve defied fate—everything is possible now!” Li Fan spoke with utmost seriousness, his words thunderous.
Scholar Zhu’s smile instantly froze upon hearing this.
The three from Sword Domain were just as surprised.
“Immortal Hunt…”
This term holds trendous weight in today’s Sea of the Northern Stars.
Immortal Hunt is directly affiliated with the Sea of the Northern Stars Governing Council, with mbers selected from various influences within the Star Sea. Once a cultivator joins Immortal Hunt, regardless of their identity or status in their original influence, they must discard it all.
Everything prioritized for “Immortal Hunt.”
The price paid brings supre authority in return.
Under the na of Immortal Hunt, one can not only freely access all major influences of the Sea of the Northern Stars, but also, under special circumstances, carry out direct executions. Crucially, becoming a mber of Immortal Hunt ans one can further approach the Dao Network.
Day and night alongside the Dao Network, progress advances rapidly.
Li Fan’s words plunged the scene into strange silence.
Scholar Zhu studied Li Fan with a somber look, contemplating sothing unknown.
Situ Tiantian managed a difficult smile, breaking the awkward atmosphere: “mbers of Immortal Hunt go through ticulous selection. Senior Brother Ma may be remarkable, but joining won’t be easy.”
Li Fan seed unconcerned, confidently stating: “Joining Immortal Hunt, I’m certain and assured! If I rember correctly, the next recruitnt is in five years. By then, I hope Scholar Zhu will recomnd .”
“I shall not disappoint you, esteed Scholar!”
Seeing Li Fan’s decision firm, the three from Sword Domain no longer persuaded.
After chit-chatting a bit more at the banquet, with a few bowls of red soup drank, they bid farewell and departed. Before leaving, they assured they’d return the favor soon with Sword Domain’s grace.
Within City Lord’s Mansion, only Li Fan and Scholar Zhu remained.
