Chapter 338: Law Enforcement Black Stone Tablet

The black-robed Cultivator paused, his cold gaze sweeping over Li Fan and the other two, before continuing, "Because each Cultivator's own experiences and state of mind differ, the illusions they see also vary."

"Most are grand scenes related to the Celestial Venerable of Dharma Transmission from the past."

"However, it only happens like this the first time."

The black-robed Cultivator's tone carried a hint of regret: "Once you have stayed here long enough and become accustomed to the aura of the Celestial Venerable of Dharma Transmission, wanting to see the illusions again becomes a luxury."

Han Yi and Simon Yue were still in shock from the illusion; hearing this, they only nodded slightly.

Li Fan, however, cautiously continued to look straight ahead.

While concealing the fear in his heart, he tried to savor that inexplicable sense of familiarity again.

The black-robed Cultivator saw the trio's reactions but didn't mind.

He didn't rush them, but waited patiently instead.

In his view, the astonishment and shock of these newcomers were perfectly normal.

As a "Guide," he had long since grown accustomed to it.

After a while, seeing that the three had slowly broken free from the illusion's influence, he continued with his duty.

"I have been entrusted by Immortal Venerable Jicheng to lead you to the Law Enforcement Hall."

"Follow closely behind me and don't wander off."

"Although those who can enter the headquarters have already undergone identity verification and generally won't have any issues…"

"But this is the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance Headquarters, a vital and sensitive location. There are Cultivators secretly guarding it at all times."

"If you go somewhere you shouldn't and are captured or killed, no one will seek justice for you."

The black-robed Cultivator warned coldly.

Li Fan and the others all nodded, indicating they understood.

Following behind him, Li Fan took the opportunity to observe the scenery of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance Headquarters.

In the endless Void Realm, many towering buildings floated and stood.

They were arranged in different positions in the Void Realm overhead, like stars across the sky.

Li Fan and the others' current position was at the very bottom of the entire architectural complex.

Streaks of silver light flashed across the sky above.

Shuttling back and forth between different floating buildings; within the light, vague figures could faintly be seen.

They moved forward at a steady pace. Along the way, they occasionally encountered solemn-faced, hurried Cultivators.

The floating land beneath their feet here seemed to serve only as an entrance from the outside and a checkpoint for inspection.

Aside from the plants and trees along the sides of the road, no other buildings were established.

Before long, they arrived at the edge of the land.

Li Fan saw what appeared to be a strange Transfer Formation engraved on the ground ahead.

Fine silver lines moved continuously within the Formation. Every time a Cultivator stepped in…

…a silver light would carry them soaring into the sky toward different areas above.

Standing before the Transfer Formation was a burly, tall Cultivator.

This person wore the standard black and yellow Daoist robe uniform of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, his sharp eyes scrutinizing the passing Cultivators.

When it was Li Fan and the others' turn, the tall Cultivator glanced at the black-robed Cultivator and gave a slight nod.

However, he still reached out to stop them.

The black-robed Cultivator didn't mind and took out the small circular mirror from before.

A beam of light shot out and landed on the tall Cultivator.

Strangely, the beam of light seemed to be absorbed by him; after hitting him, it vanished in an instant.

In the tall Cultivator's eyes, however, many characters flashed rapidly for a moment.

He lowered his hand and stopped blocking them.

The black-robed Cultivator led Li Fan and the other two into the Transfer Formation.

The burly middle-aged Cultivator pointed at the Formation.

A fine silver line shot from his finger into the ground Transfer Formation.

It circled around a few times, growing several times larger.

Then, enveloping Li Fan and the others, it flew toward the sky.

In an instant, Li Fan's body seemed to turn into light, shuttling through this space at an incredible speed.

And uniquely, he felt no discomfort from the excessive speed.

The surrounding scenery receded rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, the previous floating land had become as small as a black dot.

The light continued to climb upward, passing one floating landmass after another.

The sharp-eyed Li Fan even caught a glimpse of the iconic slanted metal cube building of the Ce Zhen Hall in a certain area.

Before long, a shadow loomed overhead.

The light carrying Li Fan and the others plunged straight into it.

His vision blurred, and Li Fan changed from a light form back into human form.

Stepping onto land again, Li Fan looked forward and saw a tall black stone tablet standing not far away.

Only a single broad avenue led straight to the stone tablet.

There weren't even any plants or other decorations on either side of the road.

Compared to the other floating lands he had seen before, this place appeared somewhat simple and grim.

The black-robed Cultivator remained silent, leading the way down the straight avenue.

The road surface seemed to be made entirely of some kind of bluish-green stone. Walking on it, Li Fan was horrified to find that the Spiritual Qi within his body suddenly went dormant.

As if it had lost its vitality, no matter how Li Fan tried to command it, he couldn't mobilize it in the slightest.

Consequently, his Early Golden Core Clone became no different from a Mortal while walking on this road.

Han Yi and Simon Yue clearly noticed this as well.

The three of them glanced at each other in fear, not daring to discuss it much, and hurried to catch up with the black-robed Cultivator who had already walked ahead.

The tall black stone tablet seemed close, at the end of the straight avenue.

But as Li Fan and the others relied entirely on their physical bodies to trudge forward step by step, the road seemed to become extremely long.

In Li Fan's estimation, it took nearly half a day for them to reach the end, somewhat exhausted.

During this process, they had encountered Cultivators walking out from the black stone tablet.

Yet they seemed unaffected, still able to fly at low altitudes over the straight avenue.

"It should be a restriction on outsiders. Members of the Law Enforcement Hall headquarters seem to be able to rely on some secret technique to prevent the Spiritual Qi in their bodies from going dormant," Li Fan thought to himself.

Arriving at the base of the black stone tablet, Li Fan truly felt its height.

Its towering peak was already beyond his field of vision; its entire black body felt profoundly oppressive.

What made Li Fan curious was that the entire stone tablet seemed to be a single piece.

He didn't see the existence of any entrance or exit either.

At this moment, the black-robed Cultivator who had led them here spoke.

"Alright, we're here. Show your jin fa jade tokens."

Hearing this, Li Fan and the other two took out their exquisite jade tokens.

The rainbow light from the jade tokens shone onto the black stone tablet, making the pitch blackness upon it become multicolored as well.

The halo spread, and the hard stone tablet seemed to dissolve within the many colors.

A rainbow passage appeared on the stone tablet.

"Go on in. I don't have a jin fa jade token, so I cannot enter the Law Enforcement Hall without authorization," the black-robed Cultivator said.
