Chapter 328 Two Generations of Possession Immortals
“I originally thought I had been careful enough this time, but I didn’t expect that in such a remote place, I could still attract the Old Fisherman, a powerhouse who is at least in the Harmony Dao Realm.”
“This was an unavoidable accident. Who would have thought that this somewhat crazy old man would be related to a broken sword in the Congyun Sea, tens of thousands of miles away?”
Recalling every scene of his interaction with the Old Fisherman, Li Fan realized that although the Old Fisherman’s sudden appearance startled him,
the danger level of the entire interaction process was vastly different from that with the Heavenly Doctor before.
Even the pressure that the black-clad Harmony Dao Realm Cultivator from Source Dao Province had exerted on Li Fan back then far exceeded that of the Old Fisherman.
Was the Old Fisherman’s strength inferior to that black-clad Harmony Dao Realm Cultivator?
Li Fan didn’t think so.
The master of the Heavenly Fiend Sword must be far stronger than an ordinary Dao Integration cultivator.
Even if he was now mad and suffering from amnesia for some unknown reason, he should never be underestimated.
But the feeling he gave Li Fan was so peculiar.
During their interaction, there was no sense of being in communication with a powerful Combined Dao Immortal.
Instead, it was like talking to an ordinary and kind elder.
Apart from his own psychological factors, he felt not the slightest bit of pressure.
The reason for this…
Li Fan narrowed his eyes slightly.
“Did the Old Fisherman also forget the fact that he is a supreme powerhouse?”
Li Fan vaguely felt that this might indeed be the case.
Perhaps there were other hidden secrets behind it, but it should be largely similar.
“A powerhouse of the Old Fisherman’s Rank, being mad and wandering in the heartland of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, is extremely dangerous.”
“If he suddenly goes crazy and rampages, the destruction caused might be no less than another great battle in Tianling State.”
“Even so, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance actually lets him be, without expelling him.”
“There must be some deeper reason behind this.”
“The waters are too deep. Before I grow stronger, it’s best for me not to interact with him.”
His thoughts slowly calmed, and Li Fan looked at the female Cultivator from the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance who was still unconscious.
Her face was beautiful; although not a peerless beauty, she was definitely a pretty woman.
She looked relatively young, but a Daoist Cultivator’s appearance has little to do with their age.
Perhaps she was even older than Li Fan.
Because Li Fan couldn’t sense her specific Realm.
This indicated that either she had a rare treasure protecting her and concealing her aura,
or her strength far surpassed Li Fan’s, at least at the Nascent Soul or Soul Transformation cultivation level.
“This woman is of great use to me? What does that mean?”
He didn’t know what the Old Fisherman had seen, but he figured he wouldn’t speak without reason.
Holding the female Cultivator, Li Fan quietly left the hollowed-out mountain.
After flying for a while, he arrived at a clearing in the forest and set the female Cultivator down.
Then he tried to wake her up.
However, Li Fan tried several methods, but none of them succeeded.
“It seems the Old Fisherman’s slap was really heavy.”
Without clarifying the female Cultivator’s identity, Li Fan did not act rashly.
He just quietly guarded her from the side.
While Cultivating, he waited for her to wake up.
After two full days, the female Cultivator let out a soft moan and finally regained consciousness.
She sat up on the ground, her expression somewhat dazed.
She looked around, saw Li Fan sitting quietly to the side, and was a little confused.
“You are…”
“I am Li…” Before Li Fan could finish his answer,
the female Cultivator seemed to suddenly remember something, and her face filled with terror.
She let out a scream, forgetting to stand up, and instead directly supported herself with her hands, constantly moving backward.
At the same time, she kept saying, “Don’t come over!”
Li Fan’s face darkened, and he immediately swallowed the words he was about to say.
With a solemn expression, he used a trace of spiritual Qi, his voice like thunder, and coldly said, “Fellow Daoist, please calm down!”
Strangely enough, as if stunned by Li Fan’s angry shout,
the female Cultivator indeed stopped moving and remained still.
However, the expression on her face became even more terrified for some reason.
“It seems she’s not someone with a high cultivation level.” Li Fan made a judgment in his mind.
Trying his best to put on a gentle face, Li Fan softly asked, “May I ask your name, Fellow Daoist? And why were you captured by that Old Fisherman?”
The female Cultivator showed a face uglier than crying, her expression extremely unwilling.
But her mouth opened and closed, continuously saying, “My name is Lu Xuejing. I had heard rumors about the Old Fisherman before and was very interested in them.”
“Not long ago, I happened to hear that he appeared near Tian Yu State. My mother has been busy with official duties recently, so she’s been uncharacteristically lenient with me.”
“So I secretly snuck out and found the Old Fisherman.”
“I happened to see a Cultivator exchange a tattered iron piece for a Cultivation Technique.”
“I became interested and wanted to try too.”
“Who knew this old fellow would ignore me? It made me so angry that I started cursing at him.”
“Then…”
“My vision went black, and it felt like I was trapped in a small, dark place.”
Lu Xuejing’s face was filled with extreme grievance, and two lines of tears flowed down.
Her body trembled slightly, seemingly sobbing.
But her speech remained very steady.
“When I woke up, I was here.”
Li Fan observed Lu Xuejing’s strange and contradictory behavior.
He muttered to himself, “I just asked casually, but she’s explaining it in too much detail.”
Suddenly, as if something came to mind, Li Fan’s expression couldn’t help but become a little strange.
“I won’t take your things for free.”
“Hmm, I seem to have something here that would be of great use to you.”
The Old Fisherman’s words echoed in his ears. To verify his guess, Li Fan spoke up and said, “Fellow Daoist, please stand up.”
Lu Xuejing heard him and indeed stood up.
Li Fan pondered for a moment, then asked, “Fellow Daoist, how old are you now? What is your Realm? What Cultivation Technique do you Cultivate?”
Asking a stranger these two questions was clearly an extremely rude thing to do.
Just flicking one’s sleeves and leaving would be an extreme display of restraint; drawing a sword and attacking on the spot was also possible.
However, Lu Xuejing still didn’t know how to refuse and calmly answered Li Fan’s questions.
“I am twenty-three years old this year, at the Late Stage Foundation Establishment. I Cultivate the ‘Two Qi Illuminating Divine Heaven Annihilation Technique’ that my mother prepared for me.”
The questions were answered truthfully, but the terrified expression on Lu Xuejing’s face became even more pronounced.
At the same time, she looked at Li Fan, and a hint of resentment flashed in her pupils.
The moment he heard the name of the Cultivation Technique, Li Fan’s heart skipped a beat.
Then he understood: “So she’s a second-generation immortal who hasn’t experienced much of the world’s harshness. She went out to play, disrespected the Fisherman, and was captured.”
“Then she was treated as an item and traded to me.”
“So, this second-generation immortal is now my possession?”
