Chapter 394: Insights into Chaos
"At this moment, it's not urgent. Wait until you return to the peak of Dissociation Mountain, and during the nine years waiting for Truth to fully recharge, it will be the perfect time to do this."
"As for what is hovering above Yuandao Province, perhaps only when I achieve the status of Immortal Sage in the future, will I be able to explore its true nature."
"Before that, it's best to avoid it."
One worry was temporarily resolved.
As this world was nearing its end, Li Fan sorted out his current situation.
In over a decade of uninterrupted days of setting up formations, Li Fan, with the secret technique of "Dao of the Divine One," did not neglect other matters.
He finally finished reading the "Immortal Medical Classic."
From this magnificent masterpiece, Li Fan could also glimpse the thoughts of the Heavenly Doctor.
The Heavenly Doctor believed that everything in the world could be healed.
From stones, plants, and animals, to people, mountains, lakes, and even the world itself.
In the eyes of a true "doctor," there was no essential difference.
Practitioners, from small to large, constantly progressed.
Perseverance would lead to the transformation from healing people to healing the world.
Although the "Immortal Medical Classic" did not mention cultivation methods, there seemed to be many mysteries hidden between the lines.
"It's a pity my talent is still lacking. If I were a true genius, I might have been able to comprehend a technique from it."
"Perhaps I can use indirect methods."
Li Fan squinted his eyes as a difficult thought flashed through his mind.
Immediately, he suppressed it.
"Forget it, the risk is too high."
"The Heavenly Doctor is mysterious and unpredictable. If he were to discover that the 'Immortal Medical Classic' is circulating in the world, who knows what kind of upheaval it might cause."
"Studying it myself will just take a little more time."
Combining the understanding of sentient beings from the Immortal Medical Classic, Li Fan also continued to modify and improve the "Creation Forge Art."
"Master Tianyang's 'Eternal Remembrance' still has one last chance of use. Currently, I don't have much confidence in successfully breaking through. I'll give it one last try when my life comes to an end."
"Zhang Zhiliang's 'Infinite Method,' I've gradually mastered its essence over the years. With continuous formation setups, my mastery of formations has made remarkable progress. Theoretical knowledge combined with practical application, now even an ordinary Nascent Soul Formation Master may not surpass me."
"Then there's the 'Xuanhuang Heart Refinement Mantra' and the 'Life and Death Mystery Technique,' the combination of the two can rapidly increase the strength of the soul. Although I'm still in the process of recovery since the last trial, time is the one thing I'm not lacking."
...
A blue crystal in Li Fan's sea of consciousness emitted a deep blue light.
Under the blessing of his supernatural techniques, although Li Fan had learned many things, he remained undisturbed.
"Apart from those already mastered, there are two more things that are equally useful to me."
With this in mind, Li Fan used his hand as a pen and swiftly wrote the word "chaos" in the void in front of him.
It seemed that an unusual energy was converging towards the strokes of his pen.
Li Fan closely watched the changes that occurred within.
Unfortunately, it seemed that his comprehension was not enough, and the word "chaos" ultimately failed to take shape.
After persisting for a moment, it dissipated without a trace.
"Chaos..."
He waved a Five Elements Annihilation Sword, wiping out the remaining breath, and Li Fan fell into contemplation.
This "chaos" character was exactly the same as the one on the "chaos" character stone in the Maze of Chaos Stone domain where Li Fan had been trapped before.
Relying on copying the word "chaos," Li Fan was able to open the passage of the mystery domain and escape.
However, afterwards, Li Fan always felt that this "chaos" character was by no means simply a switch for the passage.
The eerie scene at the center of the mystery domain seemed to be closely related to it.
"If I could comprehend it, no..."
"I'm afraid that as long as I can reproduce this 'chaos' character, it would be a supernatural power no less inferior to my Great Five Elements Annihilation Sword."
Aside from the chaos character.
There are also scenes of the Five Elements returning to one that Li Fan observed not long ago, the great explosion destroying everything, and the scene of the Tianxuan Soul Locking Formation's 'Reversal of the Five Elements Returning to One'.
"Currently, my Great Five Elements Annihilation Sword simply uses the generation of the Five Elements as its power."
"But in reality, the circulation of the Five Elements can produce immense destructive power."
"Perhaps I can combine this power of destruction to improve a new version of the Great Five Elements Annihilation Sword."
Li Fan pondered the power of the Five Elements in his dantian.
...
In the mysterious world of Xuanhuang, where different cultivation methods couldn't be practiced together, without the presence of good teachers and friends.
All cultivation knowledge was a priceless treasure, and to obtain it, one had to pay a corresponding price.
And those true secrets that were not passed down were even more deeply hidden in high towers, beyond reach.
In such a cultivation world, Li Fan wanted to obtain power far beyond others, he had to rely on his own exploration.
Unfortunately, before worldly matters could come to an end, just two days later, Li Fan was awakened by a message.
It turned out to be a message sent by Qi Buyi.
First, he asked about his recovery, then let him go to the Thousand Star Monastery.
Li Fan did not interrupt the process of insight, he just separated a strand of consciousness to control his journey.
"Next, you don't have to work so hard and personally participate in the construction of the array."
"Just follow the responsible person for inspection."
Qi Buyi smiled and said to Li Fan.
"The one you'll be teaming up with is Huangfu Song. Since you're acquainted, it'll be convenient for you."
"Your points won't be much less than those who construct the array, and you can maintain your second position."
"Normally, this position wouldn't be assigned to competitive formation masters like you. But if it's you, I believe others won't say much." She spoke and handed over another Records of Hundred Matters.
The previous Records of Hundred Matters and Escape Shuttle had been handed over when leaving the Five Elements Cave, but this time it was different.
There was no distribution information for various supplies, only a rough map of the states in the Xuanhuang Realm.
It was very similar to the glimpse seen in the space of long-distance transmission arrays.
"You can check the details of the work and your colleagues through the Records of Hundred Matters."
Qi Buyi still diligently explained to Li Fan.
Most of Li Fan's mind was focused on comprehending dao, so he seemed somewhat absent-minded as he nodded along.
Seeing this, Qi Buyi could only sigh inwardly: "He's deteriorating more and more."
"It seems like his downfall is not far off. I wonder when those longevity treasures will be sent over."
After bidding farewell to Qi Buyi, Li Fan contacted Huangfu Song through the Records of Hundred Matters.
Fatty's tone became even more polite.
After the two met at the Tianchen State's Transmission Array Square, they used the transmission array to arrive at the nearly completed Soul Locking Array in Lanlin State.
This state was located in the extreme south of the Xuanhuang Realm and was relatively remote.
They encountered several barriers along the way before finally arriving.
Passing through countless white mist barriers made Li Fan, who was already aging, even more miserable.
His eyes looked dull and lifeless.
Although Li Fan was actually immersed in the comprehension of dao, it didn't prevent others from misunderstanding him.
At least Huangfu Song was somewhat nervous, fearing that Li Fan might die right beside him.
"Hehe, you can rest as much as you want later, my friend."
"Leave everything to me."
Huangfu Song said so.
