Thousand years of breaking delusion
Inside the tianxuan mirror.
Li Fan sat blankly, his expression dazed.
Even though he already knew that items and knowledge obtained in the Fallen Immortal Realm could only be brought back if the long-cherished wish was resolved.
But this time, when he returned to the real world and truly couldn't recall a single word of the Creation Furnace Skill taught by Mr. Bai, Li Fan still found it hard to maintain his composure.
Once one has seen the ocean, it's hard to be impressed by mere water.
It was precisely because he had personally experienced the profound mystery of that supreme Dao Law that Li Fan found it even harder to accept the clumsy Cultivation Technique he had created.
The gap was too vast, like the difference between stars in the sky and grass on the ground.
Under the strong contrast, Li Fan's mindset inevitably became somewhat imbalanced.
Especially when the treasure mountain he once possessed vanished in an instant, never to be seen again.
Even Li Fan, whose willpower was extraordinary, became a little lost.
"Mr. Bai, Creation Furnace Skill…"
"I can try infinitely; surely, one day I will be able to bring this true Cultivation Technique back."
After a long while, Li Fan took a deep breath, slowly suppressing the negative emotions in his heart.
According to his experience in Ninyuan Fruit of Longevity, to bring an item out, one must fulfill the obsession of the item's owner.
What would Mr. Bai's obsession be?
For the current Li Fan, Mr. Bai was still too mysterious. He could only slowly and continuously try in the future.
After a slight sense, the next time he could enter the Fallen Immortal Realm would be in half a year.
Unfortunately, it was a bit longer than the usual time limit. Li Fan sighed slightly and kept it in mind.
At this moment, Li Fan checked his communication Talisman and discovered the message sent by Chen Ying.
She stated that she had already departed for her destination and had made ample preparations.
If she could survive this great tribulation, she would certainly repay Li Fan well upon her return.
Li Fan chuckled, thinking that if it truly happened, it could be used as a typical example and widely publicized.
"However, the great war in Tianling State is not anchored to occur until 16 years later. Before that, the main focus should still be on the lingwu grass incident."
"If there wasn't a clear declaration from the tianxuan mirror, the Five Old Men Association might not have gone to great lengths for a grotto heaven whose situation was unclear."
"Moreover, if it weren't for Jiao Xiuyuan's instigation, the lingwu grass incident would not have spread as widely as in his previous life."
Li Fan pondered for a moment and decided to go see Jiao Xiuyuan first.
Without concealing his figure, and in the appearance of a Tianji Sect Cultivator, Li Fan arrived outside Thousand Mile Hall.
Inside, it was as deserted as ever.
Jiao Xiuyuan was lazily lying on a long chair, his eyes slightly closed, seemingly napping.
Hearing footsteps, he suddenly stood up, changing his expression.
"Oh, a guest!"
Jiao Xiuyuan looked at Li Fan, first愣, then greeted him warmly without batting an eyelid.
Li Fan also didn't state what he wanted to buy, but instead narrowed his eyes, staring at Jiao Xiuyuan.
The two stared at each other, eye to eye.
After a moment, Li Fan was the first to cup his hands: "Fellow Daoist, your Puppet Dao, transforming into myriad forms, is truly extraordinary!"
"Even in the Ancient Era, it would be considered a rare Divine Ability!"
Unexpectedly, his Cultivation Technique's mystery was revealed by someone he had just met, Jiao Xiuyuan seemed a bit surprised.
However, he concealed it very well and immediately responded: "Peering into heavenly secrets, exploring Karma. The Ancient Heavenly Mystery Sect truly lives up to its reputation!"
"Admirable! Admirable!"
"I've heard much about you! I've heard much about you!"
The two looked at each other and both burst into laughter.
After exchanging compliments and formally introducing themselves, Jiao Xiuyuan then tentatively asked: "Fellow Daoist, you haven't come all this way just to make fun of me, have you?"
"Fellow Daoist Jiao, what are you saying? Do I look like someone with so much free time?" Li Fan waved his hand and said. "I came here, of course, for the word 'wealth'."
Jiao Xiuyuan's spirits immediately lifted: "Oh? What does Fellow Daoist want? Formations, Talismans, Magical Artifacts, Medicinal Pills, we have everything, large quantities from…" He said casually.
"Does Fellow Daoist think I lack these?" Li Fan asked with a faint smile.
"Then what do you want?" Jiao Xiuyuan's expression became serious, and he became earnest.
"This time, I'm not buying. I'm selling!" Li Fan shook his head and said in a deep voice. "As for whether it can be done, it depends on whether Fellow Daoist Jiao knows his goods."
"Selling? I don't buy just anything…" Jiao Xiuyuan was saying, but when he saw what was in Li Fan's hand, he couldn't help but stop.
He saw an eyeball, like a living creature, glaring fiercely at him.
Killing Intent overflowed, making him instinctively want to counterattack.
Fortunately, he realized that this eyeball had no offensive power and managed to hold back.
"This is?" Jiao Xiuyuan narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but ask.
Li Fan said with a slightly wistful tone: "This is a relic of my Senior Brother from back then. The person is gone, and this item is useless to me now. Seeing it only reminds me of him and adds to my sorrow. So I want to give it to someone else with a predestined connection. Unfortunately, the tianxuan mirror doesn't know its worth and offered a low price. It's truly an insult to my Senior Brother."
"So I deduced the heavenly secrets and searched for someone worthy of taking it over. That's why I came to Fellow Daoist Jiao." Li Fan slowly explained.
Li Fan didn't lie either.
In the Tianji Sect ruins of the Hundred Stone Grotto Heaven, besides Cultivation Techniques and ancient texts, Li Fan had two other gains.
One was the eyeball in his hand at this moment.
The tianxuan mirror identified it as a stone eye of eradication, similar to a Heaven and Earth Oddity, an existence that aggregates Law.
It is said that after a Cultivator absorbs and refines it, he gains the ability to see through illusions and foresee the future.
Logically, such a treasure should be priceless.
However, unfortunately, this stone eye of eradication had already been refined by a Cultivator once.
The pure Heaven and Earth Law was tainted with the Cultivator's Qi and Karma.
Moreover, thousands of years had passed, and with the drastic changes in Heaven and Earth, the power of Law had also changed significantly from the Ancient Era.
Under the dual influence of these two factors, the stone eye of eradication's deduction effect was greatly discounted.
If it worked once out of ten times, one could burn high incense.
Therefore, the tianxuan mirror only offered a recovery price of 60,000 contribution points.
Although this item was of little use to Li Fan, who could foresee things, he also didn't lack those 60,000 contribution points, so he kept it with him.
Now was the perfect time to take it out and connect with Jiao Xiuyuan.
"How about it, Fellow Daoist Jiao, do you recognize this item?" Li Fan asked deliberately.
Jiao Xiuyuan stayed still for a moment, then sneered: "How could I not know this item? It's just a stone eye of eradication."
He pondered for a moment and then said: "Let me tell Fellow Daoist, there's a reason why the tianxuan mirror gave a low price."
"Although this item is rare, if Fellow Daoist wants to sell it for a good price, I'm afraid you'll have to find the right person."
Li Fan replied: "I naturally understand this. That's also why I came to you, Fellow Daoist Jiao."
Li Fan generously threw the stone eye of eradication over and said: "I believe, Fellow Daoist will definitely be able to find a suitable new owner for it."
"Please help me with this, Fellow Daoist. Half of the proceeds from the sale will go to Fellow Daoist. How about it?"
Jiao Xiuyuan's eyes lit up: "I'll take this business!"
He checked it around, and for now, found no problems. He made an appointment for an MRI tomorrow to check the brain again.
