Chapter 472

Sun Family's Second Young Master scratched his head in frustration, but after much effort, he finally managed to calm the restless children from the separated realm.

Li Fan then led them to the path of transformation into Dao. The cave dwelling he had previously opened wasn't large, but it was more than enough to accommodate these children.

Li Fan made a trip back to the Ten Thousand Immortals Island and purchased the Spring of Spiritual Life and Scarlet Fruit Tree from the Tianxuan Mirror, solving their food problem.

Only then did he gather the children. They looked at Li Fan with innocent and bewildered eyes.

"Do you know what immortality is?" Li Fan asked.

Most of the children instinctively shook their heads, including Ye Feipeng, who was completely puzzled. Only Sun Erlang, who was slightly older, had a flash of desire and longing in his eyes.

He eagerly responded, "I know! Immortals can fly through the sky and burrow through the earth, move mountains and fill seas, summon wind and rain, and do anything!"

Sun Erlang's words seemed to embolden the previously timid children.

Another child quietly said, "I know too. My father taught me a song: 'To be like an immortal, riding a crane to the heavens, turning stone into gold, miraculous and beyond words!'"

Li Fan chuckled when he heard this. He recognized this child as the future father of Han Wu You. This time, Li Fan had also captured him along with Han Wu You's mother, wanting to see whether Han Wu You would still be born under such drastic changes.

The significance of the possible differences was crucial to Li Fan.

With a wave of his hand, the children, who were chattering away, immediately quieted down.

Li Fan solemnly taught, "The so-called immortals are merely people who are a bit more powerful."

"But for a mere mortal to become as powerful as an immortal, how easy could that be?"

"Some people are skilled in literature, others in martial arts. The most important thing is to find a method that suits you to become stronger."

Li Fan deliberately paused, waiting for the children to reflect. After they seemed to be deep in thought, he continued, "I have three methods that can make you as strong as immortals."

"First, the Rebelling Against Heaven Method. Mortals follow the natural order, while immortals go against it. By defying the laws of heaven and earth, you can attain the path to eternal life. This is the highest method."

The children, though not understanding much, grasped the basic idea, and their eyes widened in amazement.

"Second, the Hidden Furnace Method. The human body contains a hidden furnace, and by refining it, you can tap into your potential. At advanced stages, sheer physical strength alone can move mountains and fill seas! This is the mid-level method!"

Upon hearing this, only Sun Erlang and Wang Xuanba had a spark of interest in their eyes.

"If neither of the first two methods works, I still have a third!"

"Although it cannot compare to the other two, it is still one of the many paths to greatness."

"It is the Beast-Taming Method!"

"The world was once filled with various exotic beasts that possessed incredible powers. By harnessing their strength, you too can accomplish the feats of immortals with a mortal body!"

Li Fan spoke loudly.

The children grew excited with anticipation.

"Everyone is different. Only a few will be able to master the highest method. I will teach you according to your strengths."

"You may choose how to cultivate voluntarily."

"Think carefully. Three days later, I will return to this place!"

With a sweep of his hand, Li Fan activated a Memory Stone, which played a continuous loop explaining the three methods in the air. The children were captivated by the various dazzling scenes displayed and immersed themselves in them.

Three days passed quickly.

When Li Fan reappeared, they immediately fell silent from their discussions.

"Those who wish to cultivate the highest method, step forward!" Li Fan commanded.

Su Changyu, Sun Erlang, and three other children boldly stepped forward.

After scanning them, Li Fan solemnly said, "None of you have exceptional talent. If your cultivation becomes difficult in the future, don't regret your choice!"

Su Changyu and the others showed no signs of hesitation.

Li Fan flicked his fingers, and several streams of light flew into their minds.

"Thus, I have passed on different methods to you. Remember, immortal cultivation is rare, and you must not practice multiple methods simultaneously. In the future, if you encounter difficulties, you must figure them out on your own and never reveal your cultivation method to others."

Upon hearing this, the children's expressions changed slightly.

But Li Fan ignored them, summoning a gentle breeze to lead them to another room.

He then turned to the remaining children and said, "Those who wish to cultivate the Hidden Furnace Method, step forward!"

Wang Xuanba was the first to move.

Most of the other children, after some hesitation, also stepped forward.

Without saying much, Li Fan transmitted the Creation Furnace Technique into their minds.

After sending them away, Li Fan looked at the remaining three children, his eyelid twitching.

Among them were the nonchalant Xiao Heng and the cunning-eyed Ye Fei Peng.

"Why did you choose the lowest-level Beast-Taming Method?" Li Fan asked coldly, pointing at Xiao Heng. "You answer first!"

Startled, Xiao Heng scratched his head, embarrassed. "Master Immortal, I feel like I'm too dumb to learn the first two methods. So I'll just honestly learn the Beast-Taming Method."

Li Fan sneered. "Are you sure? No regrets?"

Seeing that Li Fan wasn't reprimanding him, Xiao Heng breathed a sigh of relief and nodded quickly, "No regrets!"

Li Fan didn't say anything more and handed him a Nascent Soul Beast Soul Bead.

"This is a Beast God Bead, containing the soul of a powerful beast. It's too strong for you now, so keep it by your side, day and night. When you feel ready, try to refine it." Li Fan instructed.

"Thank you, Master Immortal!" Xiao Heng happily accepted the Beast Soul Bead.

"Master Immortal, I think the same way as Xiao Heng!" The other child, Zhao Wen, who seemed simple and honest, also spoke up quickly.

Li Fan examined Zhao Wen's body carefully, and after some thought, gave him another Nascent Soul Beast Soul Bead.

"Don't push yourself," Li Fan advised.

Zhao Wen gratefully knelt and bowed.

"And you?" Li Fan looked at the last one, Ye Fei Peng.

Ye Fei Peng scratched his cheek, hesitating.

Finally, he gathered his courage and asked tentatively, "Master Immortal, why can we only choose one method?"

"I want all three. Is that possible?"

Li Fan paused, gazing at the eager Ye Fei Peng. Suddenly, he burst into laughter.

"Since you've asked, I shall grant your wish."

The Sea-Stabilizing Divine Sword, the Creation Furnace Technique, and a Beast Soul Bead made from the essence of the nine-headed divine bird flew toward Ye Fei Peng.

"Thank you, Master Immortal! Thank you!" Ye Fei Peng was overjoyed, bowing repeatedly.

Xiao Heng and Zhao Wen, stunned by the unexpected outcome, were left speechless.
