See the immortal ruins in life and death

Under normal circumstances, with the Great Dream Spring Autumn Formation protecting the Cultivators sleeping within the Medicine King True Cauldron, Li Fan would likely have to expend considerable effort to achieve his desires.

However, after forcibly detaching from the Immortal Ruins, the Formation was more or less affected.

More importantly, Li Fan also knew that a Medicine King Sect Cultivator named Linghu Chang had not fully integrated into the Great Dream Spring Autumn Formation.

His room was not sealed and still had a slight gap.

If he could obtain the memories in his mind, the Medicine King True Cauldron would be almost completely defenseless against Li Fan.

Those Cultivators above the Nascent Soul Realm would not be disturbed, allowing them to continue their slumber.

As for those below the Nascent Soul Realm, if needed, they could be suppressed one by one using the Divine Ability, Binding Insect.

Of course, even if these Medicine King Sect Disciples each possessed numerous Magical Artifacts and Medicinal Pills…

To the current Li Fan, these external possessions were actually of little use.

What he truly cared about was the Medicine King Cauldron itself, capable of traversing the Void Realm.

And the set of Dao markers within the Medicine King Sect that led to another Cultivation World.

“Even with the existence of the Immortal Ruins, I cannot escape the Xuanhuang World for now. But one day, I will leave this place.”

“Having the Dao markers in hand is also a way of preparing for a rainy day.”

Moreover, Li Fan had another reason for traveling such a long distance.

He wanted to witness the existence of the Immortal Ruins with his own eyes.

Li Fan looked up at the sky, calmed his thoughts, and awaited the arrival of the Medicine King True Cauldron.

During the wait, he felt the Soul Suppression Power unique to the Cangwu Abyss, and couldn't help but marvel at the wonder of creation.

Unlike Restrictions and Formations that weaken a Cultivator's strength, this Soul Suppression Power seemed to be a scaling of the Realm.

With his current Early Stage Nascent Soul cultivation, although his strength seemed unrestricted, he could only unleash power equivalent to the Golden Core Stage.

“It's quite mysterious, like a Mortal entering a land of giants. Although their own height hasn't changed, compared to the surrounding things, they are undoubtedly ‘little people’.”

Just as Li Fan was sighing to himself, the floating architectural ruins beside him, as if blown by the wind, slowly moved with creaking sounds.

They were about to collide with Li Fan's position.

Without warning, they appeared to have a life of their own, which was very eerie.

Li Fan frowned slightly, choosing to avoid the ruins rather than destroy them.

However, as the broken walls and crumbling structures brushed past him, Li Fan seemed to discover something, his gaze sharpening.

His figure flashed, and in an instant, he landed on one of the stone pillars.

Having endured an unknown number of years, the patterns carved on the stone pillar were already blurred beyond recognition.

Even the stone pillar itself had been largely worn away.

However, Li Fan, with the Dao Transformation Divine Unity secret technique, could firmly engrave all past experiences in his mind.

Therefore, even though only incomplete lines remained, the patterns on the stone pillar still seemed somewhat familiar to Li Fan.

“This is…”

Li Fan's eyes showed a strange look.

He compared the patterns before him with those he had seen somewhere in his memory.

They matched perfectly!

Li Fan then looked up at the vast ocean-like architectural ruins in the surrounding Mystic Domain, feeling a little surprised.

“Could it be that these buildings all came from within the White Mist?”

In the Mystic Domain where he obtained the “Chaos” character technique, Li Fan had once seen twelve large ruins.

And the patterns carved on the buildings in those ruins were exactly the same as those here.

Li Fan also recalled the Origin of the Cangwu Abyss.

On a certain day of a certain month of a certain year, the entire landscape of Cangwu Province vanished, leaving only this abyss shaped like a foot.

Li Fan couldn't help but look towards the bottom of the abyss.

It was dark and deep, with no end in sight.

“Cangwu Abyss, connected to the depths of the White Mist?”

“In ancient times, the Xuanhuang World did not have the Devouring Yuan White Mist. But now, the White Mist has cut and separated the entire world…”

“Where did it come from? What were the identities of those tragically deceased Cultivators I encountered in the White Mist Mystic Domain?”

In an instant, countless questions flooded Li Fan's mind.

However, before he could ponder them carefully, a meteor streaked across the night sky, instantly illuminating the firmament.

“It's here!”

Li Fan looked up, only to see this thin line falling directly towards his position.

At the same time, an inexplicable tremor arose in his heart.

It was like encountering a natural predator, or facing a terrifying disaster.

He felt a sense of trepidation, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

Li Fan knew that it was the lingering aura of the Immortal Ruins from the Medicine King True Cauldron, which had just escaped a calamity.

Moving slightly away from the landing point, Li Fan's gaze never left the fiery meteor in the sky.

The Medicine King Cauldron fell extremely fast, descending from the firmament to the ground in just a few breaths, and continuing to plunge into the Cangwu Abyss.

After entering the abyss, its speed gradually slowed, and the external flames also gradually extinguished.

And the creatures within the abyss, sensing the aura of the Immortal Ruins, instinctively panicked and dodged, actively clearing a path for it.

The Medicine King True Cauldron stopped steadily at its previous location in the last life.

After emitting an inexplicable distress signal to the outside world, the Medicine King Cauldron gradually became transparent and disappeared into the air.

Li Fan did not act hastily, waiting until the Immortal Ruins' aura attached to the Medicine King True Cauldron had completely vanished before controlling the little medicine king cauldron to enter it.

With the exploration experience of Xiao Heng and the others from the previous life, Li Fan proceeded unhindered, arriving before Linghu Chang's half-open door.

At this moment, Linghu Chang was lying on the ground, deep in slumber.

“He's also in the Early Stage Nascent Soul, but…”

Li Fan's eyes narrowed slightly, and the phantom of the Five Elements Cave Heaven instantly appeared behind him.

The power of the Cave Heaven Law Domain, like chains, immobilized Linghu Chang.

After collecting all the items on him, Li Fan circulated his power.

A moment later, before he could even let out a scream, Linghu Chang's body was reduced to dust under the immense power of the Cave Heaven.

However, his Nascent Soul within his Dantian, under Li Fan's precise control of power, remained completely unharmed.

With his body destroyed, Linghu Chang, who was in a deep sleep, instantly woke up.

Looking at his small, baby-like purple body, how could he not understand what had happened?

“Who exactly are you?”

Linghu Chang stared at Li Fan, his voice filled with both hatred and fear.

His only answer was a flash of purple lightning before his eyes.

“Purple Firmament Sect…”

Linghu Chang's words were filled with disbelief.

The next moment, he lost consciousness and fainted.

After a while, Li Fan, who had fully absorbed Linghu Chang's memories, waved his sleeve and temporarily suppressed the opponent's Nascent Soul within his own Cave Heaven.

Continuing deeper, he arrived at the innermost part of the Medicine King True Cauldron, standing outside the Life and Death Gate, and began to ponder carefully.

“Once the Life and Death Gate falls, even a Dao One cannot break through it.”

“Only the Everlasting Azure Force, manifested by cultivating the Medicine King Sect's true inheritance, the World Saving Everlasting Life Scripture, can instantly reverse the Life and Death Gate and enter it.”

“The World Saving Everlasting Life Scripture, a Dao One Cultivation Technique.”

If an ordinary Cultivator suddenly obtained a Dao One Cultivation Technique, they would probably be too excited to sleep all night.

However, Li Fan's heart was calm at this moment.

Although the World Saving Everlasting Life Scripture was a Dao One method, its cultivation method was based on healing the world, treating illnesses, and saving lives.

Saving others is saving oneself; the more people saved, the faster the cultivation.

Even breaking through cultivation bottlenecks required fulfilling a certain number of conditions for saving people.

It had a very low compatibility with Li Fan, so there was no need to switch cultivation methods.

However, it was a Dao One Cultivation Technique after all, so its value was certainly not low. He only needed to slaughter all the people of the Medicine King Sect, and this Cultivation Technique would become a unique copy known only to Li Fan. But there was no need to do so. This group of people from the Medicine King Sect still had more important uses.

The main problem now was the large number of people cultivating the World Saving Everlasting Life Scripture, a total of four hundred and sixty-two.

Li Fan tried to circulate this Cultivation Technique, but the Spiritual Qi in his body seemed to be completely blocked, with no movement at all.

Even getting started was almost impossible.

After pondering for a moment, he came up with an idea.

According to Linghu Chang's memories, Li Fan found the rooms of some Golden Core Realm Medicine King Sect Disciples.

He broke in and forcibly extracted a portion of the Everlasting Azure Force from their bodies.

Then, he blended these Everlasting Azure Forces together, condensing them into an energy body.

Dividing a wisp of Divine Sense into the azure energy body, Li Fan stretched his limbs, adapting for a moment.

“The Everlasting Azure Force is constantly leaking, it won't last long. But it should be enough.”

With a thought, the energy body condensed into the form of a green Nascent Soul.

Li Fan plunged into the wall of life and death.

As if passing through a gray membrane, the next moment, Li Fan saw the surrounding scene and thought he had flown out of the Medicine King Cauldron and returned to the Cangwu Abyss.

Because the scenery displayed all around looked exactly the same as outside the Medicine King True Cauldron.

It turned out to be because the inner wall of the Medicine King Cauldron had become completely transparent.

There were only two skeletons in the field.

One stood, and one lay on the ground.

“The one standing should be Liu Ruchen. The one lying on the ground should be Elder Huang.”

“To escape the Immortal Ruins, Liu Ruchen had no choice but to sacrifice the life Origins of some Cultivators within the Sect.”

Li Fan recalled what he had seen and heard in his previous life, and thought to himself.

“Only bones are left, they shouldn't still be alive, right?”

Li Fan slowly approached Liu Ruchen.

As he came to Liu Ruchen's bones, a phantom suddenly appeared beside Li Fan.

He was startled, but then Li Fan quickly realized that the other party had no life aura and was just a projection.

The Everlasting Azure Force continuously emanating from Li Fan's body was absorbed by the phantom.

As if having passed some kind of verification, after a while, the phantom finally spoke: “Disciples of the Medicine King Sect, listen to my command.”

“By the time you see this image, I should have already fallen.”

“I was wrong.”

“I predicted the coming of the great tribulation of heaven and earth, but I never thought that there was something even more terrifying above our Xuanhuang World.”

“The Ten Immortal Sects, knowing everything, stood by and watched us die.”

“This hatred is irreconcilable!”

“But you must remember, the Ten Sects are powerful, do not resist them head-on. After returning to the Xuanhuang World, temporarily seek refuge in Chang Sheng Valley and try to preserve your strength. After the great tribulation has completely passed, then act according to the circumstances.”

“After my death, my son Liu Yihang will temporarily assume the position of Sect Master, with the Elders assisting him. Once he Breaks through to Soul Transformation, he can officially succeed as Sect Leader.”

“At this difficult juncture, at this moment of life and death, there must be no more internal strife!”

…The phantom mechanically recited Liu Ruchen's last words, and Li Fan stood still, listening quietly.

After a long time, when all the last wishes had been conveyed, the phantom dissolved into specks of starlight and vanished.

Only a glowing rhombic crystal remained in place.

Li Fan knew that was the control core of the Medicine King Cauldron.

It was originally intended for Liu Yihang by Liu Ruchen, but at this moment, Li Fan, with his foreknowledge, had gotten to it first.

The energy body used the control core to open the wall of life and death, and Li Fan entered the main control room.

It took him seven days to refine it, and Li Fan gained control of the Medicine King True Cauldron.

Although many functions could not be used temporarily due to the lack of Everlasting Azure Force, most basic functions were usable.

Li Fan retrieved the images recorded by the Medicine King True Cauldron.

They were consistent with what Xiao Heng and the others had seen in the previous life.

In the endless Void Realm, the light cluster representing the Xuanhuang World appeared so tiny.

And the Immortal Ruins, seemingly about to devour everything above, were so terrifying.

The footage continued to play.

The Medicine King Cauldron, having flown out of the Xuanhuang World, uncontrollably plummeted towards the Immortal Ruins.

Even as countless lights surged from its body, attempting to break free from the Immortal Ruins' suction, it could not escape.

It drew closer and closer to the Immortal Ruins.

It was on the verge of being completely engulfed.

Just then, countless different light points suddenly surged from within the Cauldron, as if instantly gaining infinite power.

The Medicine King Cauldron, amidst continuous rumbling, changed its direction of movement.

But Li Fan's entire attention at this moment was focused on the image of the Immortal Ruins recorded by the Medicine King Cauldron.

Perhaps because it was close enough, Li Fan was able to see the blurred appearance of the Immortal Ruins.

On the desolate land, there were only crumbling ruins.

Within them, a tall figure seemed to stand.

Silently looking down.
