Li Fan did not choose to leave seclusion immediately. Instead, he returned to the stone chamber under the lake and commenced his first cultivation round after reaching the Foundation Establishment Phase.
He started cultivating the part of "The Golden Seal of the Jade Realm of a Thousand Mechanisms" meant for the Foundation Establishment Phase.
However, after a short period, he knit his brows and stopped.
During the cultivation process, he vaguely felt a hint of sluggishness in the circulation of Spiritual Energy.
Though it was very faint, to the point that it would go unnoticed if he wasn't paying attention.
Nevertheless, it existed.
After some thought, Li Fan halted and turned to cultivate the "Godly Sword of Calming Seas".
Ever since Zhang Haobo died, no one had practiced this technique.
As soon as he began, Li Fan distinctly noticed the difference from cultivating "The Golden Seal of the Jade Realm of a Thousand Mechanisms".
