Li Fan and Huang Fusong, whether in terms of strength or status, were poles apart.
Naturally, threats ca with risks.
However, firstly, due to the unique phenona that occur after a cultivator’s death, silently killing soone without anyone else knowing can be quite challenging.
Secondly, Li Fan, after all, was an example to the world and lived under the spotlight.
Even if Huang Fusong intended to make a move, he would have to consider the consequences.
Swapping with Li Fan, who was of a younger generation, was not sothing Huang Fusong planned or was determined to do.
Compromise was inevitable.
So, while it might seem dangerous, it was all part of Li Fan’s plan.
“Five Elents Great Cave Heaven…”
Li Fan thought for a mont, closed his eyes, concentrated his mind, and started connecting with Lu Xuejing whom he hadn’t paid attention to since he took her under his control.
The Fisherman’s thods were genuinely extraordinary.
Even when engulfed in dense White Mist, he could communicate with his minions in his Spirit Consciousness at any ti, no matter how far they were away.
“Master…”
Responding to Li Fan’s summons, Lu Xuejing returned a timid voice after a while.
Despite the lack of contact for a while, Li Fan didn’t bother with formalities,
He directly questioned her about the recent situation.
After finding out about the general situation, Li Fan pondered for a while and then asked about her mother’s situation.
The loyal Lu Xuejing answered truthfully.
“My mother seems quite busy lately, she’s been going around various Cave Heavens to inspect.”
“They are all places I’ve never heard of. Sotis she even lost contact for a long ti…”
Listening to Lu Xuejing, Li Fan slowly planned in his mind.
Before disconnecting, Li Fan comforted and praised the young girl.
The excited Lu Xuejing’s voice was particularly pleasing to the ears.
After assigning her the tasks in his plan, Li Fan cut off the connection amid Lu Xuejing’s reluctance.
“The plan is simply this. Whether it works or not depends on my luck.”
Li Fan muttered in his mind.
Fortunately, Li Fan was lucky.
The next day, as Huang Fusong was about to depart from Duanzhang Immortal City in his Dustcrosser Boat, Li Fan received a ssage from Lu Xuejing.
A gleam flashed across Li Fan’s eyes, and he flew onto the Dustcrosser Boat.
“Boy, what are you up to this ti?”
Huang Fusong gazed at the intruding Li Fan with an ill-tempered expression.
He sent the others away and led Li Fan to a secluded cabin.
He stared at Li Fan with cold eyes, waiting for him to continue.
“To fight for ranking, I want to make a desperate attempt. Everything else has been arranged, I now need your assistance one more ti.”
On hearing this, Huang Fusong was shocked: “So soon?”
Narrowing his eyes, he carefully scrutinized Li Fan from head to toe.
As if contemplating, he didn’t speak until a while later, “So, what do you want to do?”
Li Fan solemnly said, “I wish you to change course and take to the Spirit Transforming Stream at the fastest speed.”
“Spirit Transforming Stream?”T Huang Fusong was slightly surprised.
“What are you going there for?”
Li Fan did not answer, continuing with his request instead: “In addition, we need to find a legitimate reason that doesn’t make others suspicious.”
Huang Fusong sneered, “You kid, your demands are not small.”
He did not imdiately refuse but fell into prolonged silence instead.
It seed like he was communicating with soone.
Li Fan stood still, waiting patiently.
About the ti it would take for a pot of tea to steep later, as Huang Fusong slightly nodded his head,
He turned his gaze back to Li Fan.
“You’re lucky. I have a friend who’s currently overseeing Array Construction at the Spirit Transforming Stream.”
“The Array Construction there is also nearing completion.”
“The next stop is quite close to my task location.”
“I haven’t seen him for a long ti, so it would be a good idea to et up with him and catch up.”
Huang Fusong said succinctly.
Li Fan was slightly pleased in his heart and bowed, “I appreciate your help, senior.”
“Stop playing polite with .” Huang Fusong reigned in his smile.
“The reason I’m helping you is not because of so ulterior motive.”
“I’m actually curious to see who’s really backing you up.”
Li Fan replied seriously, “Senior, you’re overthinking it. I am a loner, with no one backing up.”
Huang Fusong seeing that Li Fan was still playing dumb, decided not to argue with him any further.
He just scoffed dismissively.
“May I ask, senior, how long will it take to reach the Spirit Transforming Stream?” Li Fan asked, as if nothing had happened.
“Fastest two days, slowest seven days. It depends on the unexpected conditions we may encounter on the way.” Huang Fusong answered impatiently.
“Just be patient. Since I’ve promised you, I won’t deceive you on this matter.”
Li Fan nodded slightly and expressed his thanks again.
The sudden change of direction of the Dustcrosser Boat surprised the cultivators onboard.
However, with Huang Fusong, the helmsman, giving the orders, no one dared to voice any objections.
The Dustcrosser Boat turned into a streak of red light, piercing through the Elent Devouring White Fog, and sped forward.
After leaving the White Mist Barrier, they first flew to the nearest Qiyang Immortal City, using the Teleportation Array there to arrive at a desolate place covered in scorched earth.
They then continued to fly towards their target.
“This is Ten Thousand Mile Fla Burning Beach, and the Spirit Transforming Stream is deep within.”
“The rampant fire attribute spiritual power repels all other forms of energy, rendering even the spatial structure unstable. That’s why no teleportation array could be constructed.”
Huang Fusong couldn’t help but explain when he saw Li Fan looking at the scenery outside with curious eyes.
Even with the Array blocking, while inside the Dustcrosser Boat, Li Fan could still feel the intense heat from the outside world.
It was a residue of power that seed to burn everything.
In the Heaven and Earth, it seed that only that dark red power remained.
The earth was cracked and the Vault of Heaven seed to be burning with raging flas.
“A thousand years ago, this place was a great spot. Unfortunately now, it’s beco this desolate.”
Stirred by the desolation, Huang Fusong let out a sigh, filled with regret.
“If not for the Spirit Transforming Stream being so special, I suspect the alliance would have long abandoned this area.”
“What is special about the Spirit Transforming Stream?” Li Fan inquired following Huang Fusong’s words.
“You don’t know?” Huang Fusong was truly surprised now. “Then why the hurry to get here?”
Li Fan instantly wore an expression that said ‘I’m innocent.’
Huang Fusong’s facial muscles twitched incessantly.
Fortunately, he was good at controlling his emotions and he didn’t blow up.
Rather he assud the role of a comntator again, “The Spirit Transforming Stream itself is not that special. It’s just that this place produces a certain type of bluish-green stone.”
“This stone has a strong suppressive effect on spiritual energy.”
“We cultivators, without any special counterasures, would find our spiritual energy silenced, unable to be mobilized, and we would beco weak as mortals the mont we approach it.”
“Based on its characteristics, the alliance refers to it as the Spirit Transforming Stone.”
Upon hearing this, Li Fan vaguely felt that this stone seed familiar.
As if he had seen it sowhere.
Thoughts churning, he still couldn’t rember.
Li Fan imdiately realized that this could be sothing witnessed by that mysteriously missing split personality.
Hence, he didn’t dwell on it.
After a mont of thought, Li Fan asked again: “I once happened to see that in ancient tis there was a substance known as the Absolute Immortal Stone.”
“It seems to possess similar effects to the Spirit Transforming Stone you ntioned.”
“I wonder, are these two the sa?”
