Chapter 346: Luck Changes with Destiny

Does the Thousand-Faced Demon Lord truly exist?

This question is not actually important.

Since the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and numerous Cultivators have already reached a conclusion, then regardless of what he was like in the past.

From now on, he is simply a ghost wandering within the territory of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.

Choosing people to devour, making him impossible to guard against.

Everyone could potentially be the heinous Thousand-Faced Demon Lord.

And the final right to interpret his identity lies in the hands of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, which possesses the Tianxuan Locking Spirit Array.

This is what is most important.

Li Fan could almost foresee that once the Lock Spirit Array was fully constructed, the Cultivators of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance would soon face an even more treacherous cultivation environment.

"If it truly reaches that point, the situation will be completely ruined. As a mere Golden Core cultivator, I am afraid it will be extremely difficult to protect myself. Perhaps by then, I can achieve Huan Zhen early…"

We will meet challenges as they come; there is still at least a decade before the Lock Spirit Array becomes widespread. Any further worries, for Li Fan at this moment, are merely borrowing trouble.

Just take it one step at a time.

Li Fan suppressed the distracting thoughts in his heart and began to perform the ritual to enter the Fallen Immortal Realm.

"Blessings to the Xuanhuang Immortal Venerable!"

The scene before his eyes gradually became clear from a blur.

The sound of whistling wind constantly reached his ears.

It seemed he was flying rapidly at a high altitude, and the biting cold air around him made Li Fan's body shiver slightly.

"Hmm? This time it's actually different from Ningyuan City; I didn't start over in an egg?" Li Fan, having recovered a trace of self-awareness, was somewhat surprised.

But soon, he recalled the time point when this scene before him was taking place.

The little boy Xu Ke was hugging the neck of the Azure Luan Bird tightly, while Li Fan was hanging onto his neck.

The Azure Luan Bird was speeding in a certain direction according to the little boy's instructions.

Isn't this exactly the scene from when he last left the Fallen Immortal Realm?

Has this really become a serial drama?

Li Fan suddenly felt it was quite wondrous.

Although he had lost the Opportunity to infinitely repeat the exploration of Opportunities, he would not feel anxious from constantly repeating a certain period of space-time.

It could be said there are both pros and cons.

Transforming into the Heavenly Fate Blackbird greatly limited Li Fan's cognitive abilities.

Simply not thinking about it so much, he began to scratch Xu Ke's hair and started to ponder the Divine Ability he had comprehended during his last entry.

Aside from that incredibly powerful Heavenly Fate Black Light, there was also 【Heavenly Mandate is Mine】, which could condense Luck and prevent it from dissipating.

Squinting his eyes and looking at the top of Xu Ke's head again, he saw that pillar of purple-gold light shooting straight into the sky.

Li Fan instinctively began to absorb the wisps of energy radiating outward from the purple-gold brilliance.

As if he had swallowed the most powerful Spirit Pill in the world, as the specks of purple-gold light entered his body, Li Fan felt as if he had jumped into a hot spring, his whole body feeling warm and comfortable.

He could even clearly feel that his Divine Soul and physique were both slowly becoming stronger.

He let out a comfortable breath, turned into a faint golden thread that ordinary people could not perceive, and dove back into the purple-gold Luck pillar atop Xu Ke's head.

"Heavenly Fate Blackbird, so that's how it is…"

Li Fan instantly understood what the 【Heavenly Mandate is Mine】 Divine Ability was all about.

Between heaven and earth, all kinds of living beings have their own Luck, which are not all the same.

Some have everything go smoothly, always able to turn bad Luck into good.

And some are born with terrible Luck, suffering even when drinking cold water.

But Luck is not immutable.

It is extremely susceptible to the influence of the external environment.

Those who have been smooth sailing in the first half of their lives might suddenly encounter bad Luck after certain events, and their lives take a sharp turn for the worse from then on.

And those who have been unlucky for most of their lives might suddenly have their Luck turn around one day, becoming wealthy and noble from then on.

The reason for this is that Luck interacts with external things and is extremely volatile.

The weaker the original Luck, the more this is the case.

For someone as indescribably noble as Xu Ke, although his Luck is not so easily impacted.

But each time he encounters a disaster, it consumes a portion of his original Luck.

And in his usual daily activities, it constantly remains in a state of radiating outward, continuously consuming itself.

Over time, if it only goes out without coming in, his Luck will naturally become weaker and weaker.

The Blackbird's 【Heavenly Mandate is Mine】 Divine Ability can absorb the Luck that the master radiates during ordinary times, and while nourishing itself, it feeds the refined Luck back to the master.

Not only can it help the master accumulate and strengthen their Luck, avoiding consumption in some inexplicable places.

But it can also lend its own Luck to the master during moments of crisis.

To overcome life-and-death difficulties with strong Luck.

In short, the Blackbird and its master can be said to complement and fulfill each other.

"It seems that following this kid is not bad at all." Li Fan greedily took another breath of the invisible purple-gold Qi and couldn't help but think so.

"Hey, kid, where are you going now?" After absorbing this wisp of Luck, Li Fan felt he had become a bit stronger.

With a thought, he immediately tried to communicate with Xu Ke.

Of course, not by speaking with human words, but by silently chanting in his heart.

"Wow! Little Black, you actually learned telepathy!" A moment later, Xu Ke's voice rang in Li Fan's mind.

"Lit…tle Black? Who are you talking about?" Li Fan grabbed fiercely and scratched Xu Ke hard.

"Wah, it hurts." Xu Ke touched his head from side to side, saying in a tone full of innocence, "The crane is Little Red, the Azure Luan is Little Green. You are all black and shiny, so there's nothing wrong with me calling you Little Black, right?"

Li Fan pecked him several times with force: "I am the great Heavenly Fate Blackbird!! How can you use such a crude name?!!"

"Alright." Xu Ke, in pain, had to compromise.

"Then I'll call you Little Xuan."

Although Li Fan was still a bit unhappy, he was currently possessing a strange beast whose brain was not yet fully developed.

His brain capacity was insufficient, and he couldn't think of a better name for the time being, so he had to let it go for now.

"You still haven't answered my question; where are we going now?" Li Fan asked.

Seeing that Li Fan had accepted the name he had given it, Xu Ke immediately let out a silly chuckle.

At the same time, he replied in his mind: "We are going to find Senior Brother Lu Ya now."

"The whole Sect is still in a mess right now; it's all because Mr. Bai's actions were too ruthless, scaring everyone."

"Many fellow disciples are unwilling to stay in the Sect to cultivate, feeling there is no future."

"Those who run, run; those who flee, flee. Junior Martial Uncle, Senior Martial Uncle, and many Seniors don't know where they've all run off to; no one has come out to maintain order."

"This has caused the chaos to become more and more serious."

"It's really too dangerous; if we encounter another one like Song Yang, we might not be so lucky."

"So it's better to go find Senior Brother Lu Ya; he is so strong, staying by his side will definitely be safer."

"And maybe we'll even get to see Mr. Bai while we're at it, hehe."

Xu Ke's thoughts were fast, and he spoke like a machine gun.

"How do you know where that Senior Brother Lu Ya of yours is?" Li Fan asked, somewhat surprised.
