Chapter 714: Chapter 680: Yueyang Sees Withered Branch
According to Little Black’s mory and Chi Jiu’s deathbed conversation, the Demon Tribe should have successfully evacuated already.
But after all, it was a conversation recounted by several others, and there might be so inaccuracies.
Seeing is believing.
If, under the leadership of Emperor One, the Demon Tribe really did pass through Nanming Sacred Beast Mountain and escape through a rift in space.
That would confirm that Heavenly Sword Sect had once achieved the sa thing.
Perhaps in the Fallen Immortal Realm that follows, they could focus on studying how to attain the forging thod for the Divine Soldier of the Sundered Realm.
This could act as a contingency plan for themselves.
This secret technique would definitely pique the interest of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals and the Five Elders Organization.
Leyang Province is located to the southwest of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, not too far from the Central Four States.
There’s a large lake within the territory, nad Yueyang Lake.
The province took its na from the lake.
Every dawn, it’s said one can see the magnificent sight of a red sun rising from the bottom of the lake. At that mont, the amount of sun’s energy is far greater than in other areas. A mont of absorption, of comprehension, is equivalent to many days of normal cultivation.
Because of this, Yueyang’s lakeside has gathered a considerable number of cultivators. Moreover, the creatures in the lake are exceptionally abundant. The fish in the lake, influenced daily by the dense sun’s energy, have evolved differently, and their flesh is delicious. Eating them is akin to consuming a fire-attributed Spirit Stone, warming the entire body.
With such a large lake, many average cultivators have managed to make particularly rapid progress in cultivation.
Of course, such good fortune has naturally drawn the envy of others. To prevent outsiders from coming to seize resources, the cultivators of Yueyang Province spontaneously ford an alliance and claid a vast area around Yueyang Lake as their own.
For the visiting cultivators looking to obtain the resources of the lake, they could only compete with each other for the resources of the cut-off, lower quality areas.
After more than a dozen days of travel, Li Fan entered Leyang Province.
In an instant, he felt several gazes fall upon him.
However, seeing that Li Fan did not head towards Yueyang Lake, they gradually withdrew their tracking gazes.
Not bothering with these people, Li Fan flew towards Qihong Island.
Qihong Island is located on the side of the River of Golden nace, a tributary of Yueyang Lake.
Whenever the sun rises over Yueyang Lake, and the energy of the sun erupts, the River of Golden nace also shimrs and sparkles with golden light.
It could be considered a residue of pure sun’s energy, but for so reason, it is contaminated with resentnt and cannot be absorbed by cultivators.
Therefore, very few cultivators co here, making it one of the more peaceful areas in Yueyang Province.
Xin Yu’s reputation is still relatively well-known there. Without much effort, Li Fan found his Cave Mansion.
From a distance outside, he could hear his loud yelling: “How many tis have I told you if you want the full version of Ancient and Modern Topography, co find on Qihong Island. It would be blocked if transmitted through the Tianxuan Mirror.”
“What? You don’t believe such a thing would happen in the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, I’m deceiving you? You want to expose as a fraud?”
“You son of a…..”
Only when Xin Yu’s angry cursing subsided did Li Fan call out loud: “Is that Daoist Xin Yu?”
“I am Han Wuyou, and I’ve heard of your esteed na and co to pay my respects!”
“Co in.” Xin Yu’s lazy voice ca.
The door opened, and Li Fan entered the Cave Mansion.
The place isn’t large, nor is it decorated.
It’s just filled with Jade Scrolls carelessly thrown all over the floor. There are even nurous paper books and wooden scrolls.
Li Fan briefly swept over them, finding that they were all filled with characters he did not recognize.
“Are you here for the Ancient and Modern Geography?” Without lifting his head, Xin Yu, who was intently examining a long-dead tree branch on the floor of the cave mansion, asked.
“Yes.” Li Fan replied straightforwardly.
Xin Yu casually pointed, and a paper book flew out from the ssy floor.
“Ten thousand contribution points. It’s confidential and cannot be resold.”
Simultaneously, a golden light, along with the book, flew to Li Fan’s front.
Li Fan smiled, and while signing the contract, he threw over ten pieces of top-grade spirit stones.
He temporarily put away the “Ancient and Modern Geography” without needing to examine it carefully.
Li Fan didn’t rush to leave but instead asked with interest, “Daoist Xin, why didn’t you record it in a Jade Scroll but made a paper book instead?”
Xin Yu paused in his examination of the dead branch, spared Li Fan a glance, and said indifferently, “The content carved into a Jade Scroll can generally only be preserved for around ten thousand years. If the spiritual energy dissipates, this ti could beco even shorter.”
“However, when using the ink of resentnt and written on paper made from an Evergreen Tree, it can last between thirty to fifty thousand years without fading.”
“If directly carved on the Evergreen Tree, it could remain clear and visible even after a hundred thousand years.”
Li Fan smiled at his words, “The way you think, Daoist, certainly differs from ordinary people. Casually speaking in terms of tens of thousands of years….”
“In ten thousand years, whether the Xuanhuang World exists or not is still uncertain,” Li Fan mused.
Xin Yu suddenly turned his head, his gaze solemn.
“What do you an by that?” he asked.
Li Fan was sowhat taken aback, “I was simply making an observation. What’s wrong?”
“Hmph. You may leave now.” Xin Yu took one more look around at Li Fan, then turned his head away, not uttering another word.
“We’ll et again!” Li Fan offered a salute, preparing to depart.
“Boom!”
Just as he arrived at the front door of the Cave Mansion, he suddenly felt the earth shaking slightly.
A familiar yet unfamiliar energy appeared in Li Fan’s perception.
Li Fan couldn’t help but turn his head to look, just to see a yellow energy bursting from the dead branch Xin Yu was observing.
It seed like Xin Yu had been waiting for this for a long ti. Using a small white jade bottle, he absorbed all the yellow spray.
The eruption lasted for half a cup of tea’s ti before it slowly subsided.
Looking at his harvest this ti, Xin Yu showed a satisfied smile.
“Is this the Power of Ley Lines?” Li Fan stepped forward, asked curiously.
Xin Yu’s face changed, he put away the jade bottle and blocked Li Fan’s gaze towards the dead branch.
“You are quite knowledgeable, Daoist. That’s correct, I have completed my study on Ancient and Modern Topography and am now researching about the Ley Lines.”
“Since it’s a matter of personal privacy, it is better for you not to pry.” Xin Yu sounded displeased.
Li Fan showed a trace of apology on his face: “I didn’t an to. It’s just that, I feel like this dead branch of yours looks familiar.”
“Hmm?” Xin Yu was slightly taken aback, then his face changed slightly. “Daoist, do not play tricks on !”
“I always tell the truth,” Li Fan said seriously.
“I once encountered such a dead branch in the wild in Sky-spirit State. When I touched it, I found myself seemingly in an unknown space.”
“A towering and dilapidated tree standing tall and making a person feel desolate. Not long after, I woke up from the scene.”
“The dead branch in my hand had disappeared as if it was all a dream.”
Li Fan sighed slightly: “This dead branch of yours looks sowhat similar to what I encountered that day. But they are slightly different…..”
The more Xin Yu heard, the more astonished his face beca.
Finally, he slamd the door to the Cave Mansion closed and asked seriously, “Where in Sky-spirit State did you see that dead branch?”
