Chapter 1886: Chapter 1497 Immortal World’s Entire Sects_2

When he first saw the Shuo Star Sea Road Network, the invisible hands suppressing the All Heavens’ Great Dao in his Spirit Consciousness were actually formed by borrowing the Mountain and Sea Formation.

Cheng Dao Wu Ming, worthy of being a disciple of Guardian Hill, could, like Lord Guardian Hill, borrow the Mountain and Sea Power, invisible and intangible, not within the Mortal World.

In comparison, Li Fan, this disciple, seems to have only a false reputation.

With the blue Dao Network having a foundation, it was naturally not something Li Fan’s means could devour. Even with countless breezes, it remained unshaken.

It was like a piece of delicious meat suddenly turning into a very tough bone.

Li Fan had no choice but to temporarily give up and retract the Net of the Infinite Aspects.

“Brother Dao, excellent means!”

“Be careful!”

Yet, praise and surprise attack emerged simultaneously.

“Since you borrow the Mountain and Sea Formation, then I will sever your connection with it!”

A cold light flashed in Li Fan’s eyes.

Although it was nominally a spar, if he could truly seize the opportunity to capture this Cheng Dao Wu Ming, Li Fan would not hesitate in the slightest.

The Mountain Sea transcends outside the Mortal World.

In the world, only a few people could see the true face of Mountain Sea.

Li Fan was convinced that this Cheng Dao Wu Ming before him had definitely never witnessed the true Mountain Sea.

The ability to borrow the Mountain and Sea Formation was most likely through the descriptions passed down by Lord Guardian Hill.

However, as luck would have it, Li Fan happened to be one of those few people.

In a trance, it seemed he had returned to the boundless Infinite Sea. In the distance stood the Upper Mountain, with no peak.

Amid the merging of mountain and sea, endless reverberations echoed.

Borrowing the mystical power of [Illusion as Reality], even though Li Fan had not returned physically within Mountain Sea, it seemed as if he had once again personally arrived. Thus, he detected the connection that Cheng Dao Wu Ming before him had forged with Mountain and Sea Formation.

Although he didn’t understand how exactly this connection was formed.

However, it did not prevent Li Fan from performing a deception.

Replace Mountain Sea with himself!

Cheng Dao Wu Ming would certainly be unable to distinguish between the Li Fan enhanced with [Illusion as Reality] and the real Mountain and Sea.

Compared to the lofty and unreachable Infinite Sea and Upper Mountain,

Li Fan, the imitator, would actively become close.

With such a cycle, Cheng Dao Wu Ming mistakenly took Li Fan for Mountain Sea, which was only natural.

Thus, Cheng Dao Wu Ming’s blue Dao Network’s connection with Mountain and Sea gradually became chaotic and eventually severed.

And borrowing the name of Mountain Sea, Li Fan, who briefly connected with the blue Dao Network, seized this fleeting opportunity to understand the reason behind the connection’s existence.

“Just as expected.”

Between mountains and seas, a faint figure stood with arms behind its back.

Though Lord Guardian Hill exists in the Mortal World, he has left his own imprint in Mountain Sea.

Cheng Dao Wu Ming, under the tutelage of Guardian Hill.

Moreover, it was no ordinary inheritance.

Therefore, he could sense Lord Guardian Hill’s imprint in Mountain Sea.

Hence, he was able to borrow the Mountain and Sea Formation to press down on the Dao Network!

In a flash, Li Fan also located the position of Guardian Hill’s imprint within Mountain Sea.

However, he did not rashly touch it.

As long as he could control this imprint, no matter where he was in the future, unrestricted by the High Wall, he could, like Cheng Dao Wu Ming, borrow the Mountain and Sea Formation.

But the problem is…

Lord Guardian Hill himself still exists within the Mortal World.

Cheng Dao Wu Ming is legitimately Lord Guardian Hill’s disciple.

Inheriting the Dao with his body, bearing the Dao with his will.

Such a disciple borrowing a bit of his master’s name and power would surely not incur Lord Guardian Hill’s blame.

In fact, if he sensed his disciple in danger, he might cross time and space to lend aid.

And as for Li Fan?

Using the Phantom of the Guarded Hill, he relied on the avatar Li Buren. Moreover, he used the phantom originally meant to contain the Dao Yan as a weapon against Nameless True Immortals, an out-and-out deceiver.

Far away within the High Wall is still acceptable.

If he foolishly got close to Guardian Hill…

Li Fan was sure that even if Guardian Hill himself was generous and magnanimous, perhaps not particularly caring.

A casual slap would still be unbearable for the current Li Fan.

It might even expose Hai Zhen’s existence.

“Only at a life-and-death moment, perhaps I can take the initiative to trigger a contact. The name of Guardian Hill should be intimidating enough to create chaos as a cover, allowing me to calmly retreat.”

Such a tactic, Li Fan had already used several times as a Mortal. He was already very skilled at it.

“It’s just a pity, it seems this Cheng Dao Wu Ming before me is not someone I can move easily.”

“Indeed, the students who excel are the teacher’s treasured ones.” Li Fan internally thought regretfully.

Recognizing the reality of not pursuing unattainable matters, Li Fan quickly changed his strategy.

Just in time, the duration of [Illusion as Reality] disguising as Mountain Sea had ended, and Li Fan took the initiative to halt their conflict.

“Brother Dao’s cultivation base truly surpasses mine. I have learned a lot today.” He put on a different face, appearing genuinely admiring.

Faced with Li Fan’s flattery, Cheng Dao only snorted coldly and did not respond.

Li Fan’s method of severing his connection with Mountain Sea’s imprint indeed exceeded his expectations.

With such capabilities at hand, he had to treat Li Fan with caution.

Indifferent to Cheng Dao’s cold demeanor, Li Fan continued to smile sincerely, “In truth, there’s no irreconcilable conflict between Brother Dao and me.”

“I just seek a place of stability.”

“It’s not impossible for me to release these True Immortals imprisoned within the Heavenly Pillar…”

“Oh?” Cheng Dao was somewhat surprised, looking at Li Fan, almost writing disbelief on his face.

“The reason Brother Dao cares about those sealed within the Heavenly Pillar, is it because they are like me?” Li Fan countered.

Cheng Dao pondered for a moment and nodded openly, “All Immortals in the Immortal World have received the kindness of our master, obtaining the master’s teachings. In a sense, all Immortals of the Immortal World are disciples of Guardian Hill. How could brothers cause harm to one another?”

“What a statement: brothers should not harm one another! Brother’s words today are truly enlightening!” Li Fan was stunned for a moment, then immediately clapped in admiration.

He naturally changed from calling him Brother Dao to Brother in speech.

After a pause, seeing no opposition from Brother, he continued with a smile: “Having been instructed by Brother today, I only realize my past mistakes. As I said before, I am willing to unconditionally release the True Immortals imprisoned in the Heavenly Pillar. Moreover, I can assist Brother in rebuilding the Dao Network…”

Cheng Dao Wu Ming was skeptical: “Oh really? Just like that? You’re willing to let them go?”

“Of course, Brother!” Li Fan said with an exaggerated smile.

“A promise is a promise. Those imprisoned in the Heavenly Pillar are your fellow disciples, aren’t they? You value them, and so would the Master.”

“Well said, Brother. Brothers should not harm one another! Your words today are truly enlightening!” Li Fan continued with a smile, “Of course, as I said before, I am more than willing to release the True Immortals imprisoned in the Heavenly Pillar. And as a contribution, I can help you, Brother, to reconstruct the Dao Network…”

Cheng Dao Wu Ming remained skeptical: “Fellow foreign race Nameless? When did such a monster arise in this realm?”

“No, no. Not in this realm. Beyond the Heavens!” Li Fan raised a hand, pointing distantly toward the horizon.

Beyond the High Wall, beyond possibilities.

“Eighteen of them.” Li Fan said softly, mentioning a number.

“Indeed, it shall be changed back quickly.”

Li Fan continued, “Brother should know, now I have a solution that is a win-win for both of us. It can satisfy my needs without harming the immortals…”

Cheng Dao’s expression slightly changed, “Foreign Race Nameless? When did such a fiend emerge in this realm?”

“No, no. Not in this realm, but beyond the heavens!” Li Fan reached out, pointing towards the horizon.

Beyond the High Wall, beyond possibilities.

“Eighteen of them.” Li Fan casually mentioned, noting a number.
