Same dream to resist soul search

With the Nascent Soul formed, the Clone gained an even more detached and ethereal aura, as if it belonged to another world.

Not to mention the ordinary Medicine King Sect Disciples who stared wide-eyed, even Liu San and Fang Zaiji, who had sensed the commotion and rushed over, couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

"With Xu Ke's essence blood and appearance, plus Mr. Bai's charm…"

"How about you call yourself Xu Bai from now on!"

Li Fan looked at the Clone and nodded with great satisfaction.

Xu Bai then cupped his hands towards Li Fan and smiled slightly.

Below, the gasps from the crowd looking up instantly echoed.

"Young Lord, this is…" Liu San came before Li Fan, looking at Xu Bai with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

During this time, to prevent any Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance Cultivators from the White Mist from sneaking in, he had always kept an eye on the entrance of Chang Sheng Valley. Yet, he hadn't noticed when this person had entered at all, as if he had appeared out of thin air. He had a vague guess in his heart, but Liu San still found it a bit hard to believe. So, he sought confirmation from Li Fan.

"This is not the place to talk, follow me." Looking at Fang Zaiji, who was equally suspicious, Li Fan took Xu Bai and the two of them into the cultivation secret chamber.

"This is the Clone I refined," Xu Bai said directly.

"Indeed." Liu San was somewhat enlightened, but then a new wave of confusion arose.

"Although the art of refining a Clone is rare, with the Young Lord's ability, obtaining one is not difficult. But why is this Clone refined by the Young Lord so…"

"High-profile?" Without asking about the origin of Li Fan's Clone method, but looking at Xu Bai again, Liu San asked with some difficulty in understanding.

Li Fan smiled without answering: "I have my own uses. Oh, by the way, how is the Magic Treasure Mr. Fang is refining coming along?"

Fang Zaiji also reacted instantly: "White robes, folding fan, are they prepared for this Clone? I knew it, the style of this thing is completely out of character for you, Sect Master!"

"A Dao Integration Rank Magic Treasure is not that easy to refine; it will take at least another half a year. Moreover…"

Fang Zaiji stared at Xu Bai for a few more glances: "The Magic Treasure I designed before really doesn't quite match your Clone, Sect Master. No, no, I need to scrap it and start over!"

The more he looked, the more Fang Zaiji felt that the originally envisioned white robes and folding fan worn by Xu Bai were a bit lacking.

So, he was about to rush off again to consider a new refining plan.

Fortunately, Li Fan stopped him in time.

"It's been almost three years since the Crimson Flame Burning Sea, it's time to let the Disciples re-enter the world. Moreover, my plan also requires the cooperation of the Disciples," Li Fan said lightly.

Liu San and Fang Zaiji naturally would not object to this decision.

"However, entering the world also means risk. If any Disciples unfortunately suffer calamity, and happen to be soul-searched, exposing the secrets of Chang Sheng Valley and the Beast Seed Realm…"

"What should be done then?" Li Fan looked at the two Dao Integration cultivators and asked.

"I'm only good at Artifact Refining, you'll have to ask Old Liu about this," Fang Zaiji shrugged, looking as if he was powerless.

Liu San, however, did not decline. After pondering for a long time, he gave an answer: "The heart of one person can be broken, but the hearts of thousands cannot. Currently, the Da Meng Chunqiu Array in the Medicine King True Cauldron is still operating. Any Disciple who goes out, as long as they connect a wisp of their Divine Thought into it, if they encounter forced soul-searching, the Grand Array will trigger a counterattack. Unless the opponent's Divine Soul strength is stronger than all the Medicine King Sect Cultivators who are still in slumber combined, they won't be able to learn anything from our Disciples' minds."

"The Da Meng Chunqiu Array is essentially a grand dream formed by connecting the thoughts of all Cultivators who enter the array. Therefore, in addition to uniting to jointly resist external Divine Thought attacks, it can also use the power of the dream to Seal a portion of the memories of the Cultivators within the array. Just like Mortals dreaming, they won't realize they are in a dream. Moreover, even if Disciples are in various parts of the Xuanhuang World in the future, they can instantly be contacted through the Da Meng Chunqiu Array without being detected by others…"

Liu San meticulously introduced another marvelous use of the Da Meng Chunqiu Array to Li Fan.

Li Fan was very satisfied upon hearing this: "Then I will trouble Old Liu with this matter. After the Disciples go out, they can act on their own, only needing to inquire about the tianling flower seemingly by accident. The tianling flower is a unique item of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance's Tianling State. It receives the spirit of heaven and is incredibly beautiful. However, a few years ago, after the great war in Tianling State, this item underwent a strange change…"

Liu San did not ask Li Fan the reason for such instructions, but merely kept his admonitions firmly in mind.

After explaining the relevant precautions, Liu San immediately began the intensive task of connecting the Disciples to the array.

Li Fan, however, left Chang Sheng Valley a step ahead.

Chang Sheng Valley is located within the White Mist Barrier at the border of Luoyan State and Lueying State.

Avoiding the patrolling Cultivators, Li Fan quietly left the White Mist and arrived inside Tiancheng in Luoyan State.

Although located in the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance's interior, Luoyan State was not much more prosperous than Congyun Sea. In fact, in terms of the number of Cultivators, it was even slightly less. One factor was that most of Luoyan State was barren and lacked resources.

But the most important reason was that strange occurrences frequently happened in Luoyan State.

For example, the Mind Monkey, which Li Fan was quite familiar with, had once broken out on a large scale in this place. Although the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance did not record this in detail, in his previous lives, when Li Fan was acquiring large quantities of Mind Monkey bones, he found that this item was mostly produced in Luoyan State, thus leading to this speculation.

At this time, Luoyan City was quite deserted.

Li Fan came to the long-unseen tianxuan mirror, and the first thing he did was to search for information about addictive Medicinal Pills.

Although Liu San said that the Disciples had already found out that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance did not seem to prohibit such drugs, Li Fan knew that due to the existence of Merit Ranks, many secrets were not known to ordinary Cultivators.

It was not uncommon for Cultivators who committed taboos and died mysteriously in the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.

However, this item concerned Li Fan's future plans, so he had to clarify the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance's attitude.

This current identity was still a "clean slate" with a Merit Rank of one. However, this did not prevent Li Fan from inquiring about information.

Taking out the Mind Ascension Pill from the jade bottle, Li Fan was about to list it for sale on the market.

"Warning, the Medicinal Pill you are selling is a prohibited item. Your trading authority has been temporarily frozen. Please destroy this prohibited item as soon as possible."

"Warning…"

The tianxuan mirror's slightly sharp warning sound instantly rang out and kept repeating.

Li Fan, however, pretended to be very surprised, and said innocently: "What? Prohibited item! How can that be!"

"Isn't it just an ordinary Medicinal Pill…"

The tianxuan mirror's cold voice repeated: "Mind Ascension Pill, number three thousand six hundred and seventy-four on the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance's list of prohibited circulation items."

"Hazard Level: Class B Superior."

"Please destroy it as soon as possible."

There is one more chapter coming later.
