CHAPTER 1925: CHAPTER 1519: THE FATES OF ALL HAVE BEEN ALTERED

If the ’Crimson Flame’ were to be quantified in terms of the Dao it embodies, it would merely resemble a small blade of grass. Yet, to Li Fan, it appears as towering trees stretching into the sky, majestic and boundless.

So when the great tree sways its branches and leaves, the grass beneath inevitably imitates.

To the beings of Misthaven Ocean, the Heavenly Earth’s Fiery Red Flame represents a destiny of destruction once more. Yet now, Li Fan has effortlessly subdued it.

"Previously, the Seaflame did not achieve the purpose of the Xuanhuang Heavenly Earth, hence the recurrence of past events."

"Like burning forests to create fields, one must repeat the act, completely obliterating the foundation..."

Li Fan savors the mission received by the Crimson Flame.

Correspondingly, a few images simultaneously surge to mind. This time, the burden on the body isn’t as intense as recalling matters related to [Traversing]. Just a slight tingling in the spirit consciousness, but enduring it allows him to see most of the imagery.

"It turns out it’s a fragment of the Heavenly Law Realm intruding into the Xuanhuang Realm. No wonder the Xuanhuang Heaven Path is bent on eradicating it. But what is this Heavenly Law Realm? Why does it intermix with the Xuanhuang Realm?"

Just as Li Fan wanted to delve deeper, he felt an indescribable pressure again and wisely chose to temporarily give up.

"It seems I must wait until my strength is greater, when I can withstand more."

"But it won’t be long. The pace at which this body is growing is faster than I anticipated."

Over the past fifty years, aside from [Longevity] and its side effects, Li Fan’s body has not displayed any other peculiar characteristics. But ever since recently encountering Spiritual Power, the potential of this body of longevity seems to have truly been unlocked.

Li Fan can constantly feel his progress clearly.

Mind you, he hasn’t even begun formal cultivation. This all comes from his body’s innate absorption alone. It’s truly unimaginable, how quickly he will advance once he formally embarks on the path of cultivation.

Only, Li Fan is slightly perplexed at the moment. The spiritual energy absorbed by his body doesn’t convert into corresponding spiritual power; it’s as if it has vanished without a trace.

His instincts tell him this might not be a bad thing, so he hasn’t probed deeper.

...

Li Fan remains silent in contemplation. Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi, without a reply, show awareness as the "juniors" and continue: "Over twenty years ago, this place was a vast ocean. Suddenly one day, disaster struck, transforming the ocean into land."

"Fortunately, it didn’t cause irreparable damage to the terrain or space. Thanks to the efforts of numerous cultivators from the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, this place has revived with life."

"The City Lord of Misthaven Sky City is He Zhenghao. Originally a resident of Misthaven, he luckily survived the catastrophe. During the rebuilding of Misthaven, he volunteered to take on the heavy responsibility. By the day the city was constructed, he was bestowed titles for his merits." Dao Xuanzi pointed to a massive city floating in the sky not far away.

"I’ve heard that He Zhenghao is quite a person of character. They say he has quite a background, and during his inauguration ceremony, many dignitaries came from the Central Four States of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals to congratulate him. The occasion..." Kou Hong marveled.

Dao Xuanzi nodded slightly: "With his background, there’s no need for him to be a City Lord in such a remote place. Perhaps it’s due to the connection with his hometown, he decided to. Therefore, Misthaven Sea cultivators admire him greatly. Moreover, he is known for his commitment to justice and righteousness. If you truly wish to join this Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, you might want to seek him out."

On the journey here, Li Fan fabricated his lineage as a descendant of immortal cultivators who migrated into the Mortal Mini World years ago.

Although it’s unclear how Li Fan managed to cultivate in a small world without spiritual resources up to his current realm, Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi dared not ask further.

The Immortal Cultivation World is filled with countless divine techniques, perhaps there are those that can inherit ancestral cultivation base?

"As for us, we’re used to freedom. We don’t want to join and be constrained by such regulations." Kou Hong continued.

Listening to their accounts, a seemingly familiar face emerged in Li Fan’s mind.

"He Zhenghao..."

"The feeling he gives me is friendly. Likely an acquaintance from the past."

"Starting with him seems quite good." Li Fan suddenly felt confident.

The plan to join the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals is primarily to find cultivation methods. But more importantly, Li Fan recalled that the Alliance possesses a Supreme Treasure called the Tian Xuan Mirror. And he, it seems, has a deep connection with this Treasure Mirror.

He was once its owner!

"In the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, all transactions must be conducted through the Tian Xuan Mirror. If I can obtain its assistance, all resources, can be taken at will."

"Just uncertain if the Mirror Control Technique from my memories is still effective at this point."

After all, it is merely a division of his body’s part, using it for a test, there’s no harm.

The resolved Li Fan, before heading to Misthaven Sky City, glanced again at Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi.

"I wonder what role these two will ultimately play."

"Best to leave some backup." Li Fan thought, forcing out a drop of his essence blood and flicking it towards their foreheads.

The essence blood leaves his body, transforming instantly into radiant green light. The boundless vitality it exudes even causes the surrounding vegetation to grow visibly faster.

Unlike ordinary blood, it resembles some extraordinary treasure.

Essence blood enters their bodies, and with it, Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi rejuvenate, signs of vitality flourishing. Not only do years of hidden injuries vanish, but their Foundation Establishment Strange Object also completes its metamorphosis under the brilliance.
