Memories are engraved

It faintly exceeded the upper limit of strength for ordinary Immortal Cultivators, and it was even very likely related to that True Immortal who created the entire Realm of Fallen Immortals.

Although Situ Yao's sword strike was powerful, in front of an Immortal, it was destined to be eclipsed.

After a long while, the Heavenly Sword Sect Disciples finally awoke from the shocking scene just now.

They dared not speak loudly, for fear of disturbing Mr. Bai who was still within the Sect.

Yet in their whispers, they vented the shock in their hearts with a somewhat hysterical edge.

At this moment, a figure suddenly flew over in full view of everyone to the side of the wooden sword thrown by Mr. Bai.

It was none other than Li Fan.

Not caring about the murderous gazes from the other Cultivators wishing to kill him, Li Fan took a deep breath and tightly gripped the wooden sword.

In a trance, he seemed to see a streak of white light illuminating the heavens and earth.

Countless Profound Truths related to the "Sword" instantly evolved to their heart's content in his mind.

Li Fan was immediately so enthralled that he watched with rapt attention.

But the next moment…

A violent vibration came, instantly shaking Li Fan's hand gripping the wooden sword empty.

Li Fan was also pulled out from his comprehension.

A trace of annoyance and reluctance flashed through his heart, and only then did Li Fan discover that for some unknown reason, he was already standing several zhang away.

Seeing this, the other Cultivators also followed Li Fan's example, wanting to pull out that wooden sword.

But without exception, after gripping it for merely a moment, they were sent flying by the wooden sword.

"Sigh, come to think of it, how could things belonging to such an expert be so easily taken away by us?"

"Perhaps only Senior Brother could pull it up."

…

Everyone spoke with deep regret, having no choice but to gaze eagerly and greedily at the lonely wooden sword in the arena, wiping the saliva from the corners of their mouths.

Just like what happened in real history.

Mr. Bai did not take the wooden sword away. He simply left the Heavenly Sword Sect silently.

It was unknown what he and Situ Yao had discussed.

But starting from that day, the Heavenly Sword Sect shouldered a mission.

That was to forge a World-splitting Divine Weapon that only existed in the Sect's legends.

At all costs.

As an Inner Sect Disciple, Li Fan naturally had to contribute to this endeavor as well.

Just like the tasks of the other Disciples, he was to extract comprehensions from the wooden sword and infuse them into primordial stones known as [Sword Embryo].

Afterward, countless primordial stones condensed with everyone's sword Dao comprehensions were continuously tossed into the huge pit behind the Heavenly Sword Sect.

Utilizing the molten fire to forge the prototype of the World-splitting Divine Weapon.

Although the purpose of forging the World-splitting Divine Weapon was unknown, Senior Brother Situ Yao held extremely high prestige. Moreover, Mr. Bai's heaven-shaking and earth-shattering strength had completely subdued everyone in the Heavenly Sword Sect.

Therefore, the Disciples did not harbor much resentment regarding this matter.

On the contrary, they could take advantage of comprehending the wooden sword to improve their own Realm and sword Dao proficiency. Why not do it?

Time hurried past in days like these.

Before Li Fan could have his fill, this trip to the Realm of Fallen Immortals had already come to an end.

The surrounding imagery faded, and Li Fan returned once again to the aberrated, transparent bubble space.

All three images became dim and unselectable. Li Fan did not exit immediately, instead recalling what he had seen and heard in the Heavenly Sword Sect this time.

"Judging from the timeline, [Sword Refining of Heavenly Sword Sect] should have happened after [Lifespan Fruit Acquisition in Ningyuan] and before [Upheaval of Beast Taming Sect]."

"I didn't expect that the Heavenly Sword Sect's forging of the World-splitting Divine Weapon was also at Mr. Bai's instigation. Cultivating the Rift Whale, forging the World-splitting Divine Weapon…"

"Just what is Mr. Bai plotting?"

"On the surface, it seems to be making various preparations and fallback plans for the upcoming Great Tribulation. But is it really like that?"

Measuring others by his own yardstick, Li Fan always felt that behind everything Mr. Bai did, there might be other unknown secrets.

However, Mr. Bai was extremely mysterious. His thoughts were not something the current Li Fan could fathom.

After pondering for a long time, Li Fan ultimately gained nothing and had to temporarily set it aside.

"Within the Realm of Fallen Immortals, there is also the condensation of the Law of the Sword. If it could be brought out of the Realm of Fallen Immortals, I wonder what kind of consequences it would bring?"

Back when he was in the Mortal Great Xuan Small World, Li Fan had conducted a similar experiment.

He knew that between heaven and earth, two identical Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects could not exist.

If due to some special reason, two of them came to exist.

Then afterward, the two would undergo Fusion and sublimation with each other.

The weak one vanishes, the strong one survives.

"Although the wooden sword in Shuo Feng's hand is hailed as Heaven's Wonder, I always feel that the one in Mr. Bai's hand thousands of years ago was its complete form."

"Having endured thousands of years of wind and frost, its might has perhaps diminished somewhat."

"Then if I could bring the wooden sword out, wouldn't…"

"Interesting."

Seeming to picture the scene of Shuo Feng abruptly losing his own Foundation Establishment spiritual object, Li Fan shook his head slightly.

"I'm thinking too far ahead. Let's first see how the harvest is this time."

Leaving the Realm of Fallen Immortals and returning to Longevity Valley, Li Fan tried hard to recall what he had seen and heard within the Heavenly Sword Sect this time.

A moment later, a trace of disappointment couldn't help but surface on his face.

"Without completing the obsession, as expected, the comprehension cannot be brought out either, huh."

"Wait…"

Li Fan's eyes flashed, and with a flick of his finger, countless streaks of blue sword light suddenly flashed across the Void Realm in front of the secret chamber.

Staring intently at the constantly leaping [Shattering Heaven Heart Sword], a certain familiar feeling welled up in his heart.

"So that's how it is. Although memories and comprehensions cannot be brought into the real world, the traces of Epiphany still remain."

"Just like the tide rising and falling, eventually returning to the sea, yet leaving behind its own imprint upon the beach."

"In this way, even if I won't directly acquire the comprehension, it is still immensely beneficial for my deduction of Divine Abilities. It's as if I have inexplicably gained a lot of proficiency."

Li Fan felt a slight joy in his heart, and taking advantage of the familiarity not yet fading, he immersed his mind into the comprehension of the Dao of "Sword".

Not knowing how long had passed, it wasn't until a message transmitted by Fang Zaiji arrived that Li Fan was jolted awake.

It turned out that over half a year had already passed in this seclusion of his. The protective Magic Treasures like white robes and folding fans that Li Fan had instructed him to forge had already been completed.

"Cultivation truly knows no years." Li Fan sighed softly, not rushing to go out.

Instead, he first checked the status of the Realm of Fallen Immortals.

Compared to the entry time limits of the previous two times, [Sword Refining of Heavenly Sword Sect] seemed to be a bit longer.

Even though half a year had already passed, it would still take about five months before he could enter again.

"Is it seemingly because the level of power contacted is much higher?"

Li Fan guessed in his heart.

Without dwelling on it too much, Li Fan simply kept the time node for the next entry in his mind, then came out of seclusion and saw Fang Zaiji, who was full of excitement and immensely proud.

"Haha, Sect Master, I really performed beyond normal this time! Even Liu San cannot easily breach the defense of these few Magic Treasures I forged!"
