Chapter 1035 Xuan Huang self-circulation
Li Fan had met Gong Sun Qixuan early.
In the following few lifetimes, it seems that this person's shadow is behind all the anomalies of the Xuan Network.
Including this lifetime, he was inexplicably transferred to the headquarters of the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance's Strategy Pavilion and participated in the development of the Tianxuan Locking Spirit Array.
...
All of these indicate the extraordinary nature of Gong Sun Qixuan.
After communicating with the Tianxuan Mirror avatar several times, Li Fan also gained some understanding of Gong Sun Qixuan's identity.
He was the observation object and human template when the Tianxuan Mirror created human avatars.
As for why Gong Sun Qixuan was chosen from the many cultivators of the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance, the explanation of the Tianxuan Mirror's avatar was random and a matter of luck.
Of course, Li Fan didn't believe it.
According to his memory and observation, the aura of Gong Sun Qixuan was indeed somewhat similar to that of the Tianxuan Mirror's avatar.
In fact, Li Fan even suspected that he might be another human avatar of the Xuan Tian Realm.
Searching for information about this person in the Tianxuan Mirror seems normal, but digging a little deeper reveals that all the information is fabricated.
Before coming to the Cong Yunhai, his whereabouts were a mystery, and no one knew.
Seemingly discovering Li Fan's eavesdropping, Gong Sun Qixuan barely glanced at the sky.
But he quickly looked away, coughed lightly, and directed his subordinates to deal with the mysterious events.
The way they dealt with it was also very unique. He took out a small person woven from dried grass from his bosom and threw it into the air.
Then the subordinates of the Tianji Pavilion placed smaller grass people in various corners of the mysterious outbreak area in a very tacit manner.
Under Li Fan's observation, it was discovered that the mysterious and dark power did not corrode the Tianji Pavilion cultivators who rushed in.
Instead, they were deeply attracted by the small grass figures they held in their hands.
Like long dragons, they were sucked into the grass figures.
"Hmm?"
Li Fan became interested.
Upon closer inspection, Li Fan found that each of these grass figures seemed to have a life of their own, showing strange smiles, pain, anger, and other expressions as the dark power flowed into them.
He could even hear faint rustling sounds from them.
These grass figures were like nodes, absorbing the dark power and then transferring it into the largest grass figure in the air.
The clearance of the mysterious actions lasted for three days.
In the end, the spread of the mystery disappeared completely, and the normal celestial laws of the Xuan Tian Realm once again took over.
When Gong Sun Qixuan withdrew the grass figures from the air, something unexpected happened to Li Fan.
At first glance, it seemed that Gong Sun Qixuan was putting the grass figures back into his bosom.
But in reality...
He was more like opening a huge mouth and swallowing the grass figures in one gulp.
In an instant, Li Fan felt a layer of darkness enveloping Gong Sun Qixuan.
And his coughing became more frequent.
It was not until he rushed to the next mysterious outbreak site that he started to feel somewhat better.
Of course, Gong Sun Qixuan would not always use the grass figures for every mysterious occurrence.
In the vast majority of cases, after a detailed investigation, it was determined that there was no risk of spread. Gong Sun Qixuan had his men seal off the mysterious outbreak sites.
Watching from the sky, Li Fan pondered, "For lighter threats, the Xuan Huang Realm's natural celestial laws will digest them. As for those that are uncontrolled and escalating, he uses the paper figures to absorb them into his own body."
From Li Fan's current perspective, Gong Sun Qixuan had become a collection of various mysteries.
The intertwining of many distorted and chaotic rules was chilling.
If he were to die unexpectedly, and these mysterious collections erupted in his body, it was likely that countless lives would be annihilated in an instant.
"No wonder every time I see this guy, I feel something strange."
"Embracing the Dao with one's body..."
"I'm afraid this is not something that a cultivator's body can handle."
A trace of fear flashed in Li Fan's eyes, and he kept his distance while tracking.
He also recalled how Gong Sun Qixuan was able to deduce the future based solely on his fabricated "Tianxuan Locking Spirit, the unification of Xuan Huang."
Suddenly, Li Fan had a guess about Gong Sun Qixuan's true identity.
"Tianxuan Mirror wants to create human avatars. With its status as a spirit instrument and a superior, how could it really learn from ordinary humans."
"And the easiest way to do something is to find precedents and learn from them..."
"So..."
A gleam of understanding flashed in Li Fan's eyes as many clues suddenly fell into place.
"The object of the spirit instrument's learning should naturally be an existence that has already been successfully transformed into a human, also as a spirit instrument!"
"Gong Sun Qixuan should be one of the disappeared spirit instruments in the Xuan Huang Realm, transformed into a human!"
Considering the Kunqian bone hand previously held by Oushang Tian appeared to be the remains of an immortal being.
Everything within the Xuan Huang Realm was involved in the operation of the celestial laws and the cycle of the world.
Those disappeared spirit instruments were also likely to be so.
"Transforming into a human, or becoming a celestial oddity, or..."
Suddenly, Li Fan began to understand how Jiang, the transcendent being, had gained his extraordinary abilities.
"Perhaps it also comes from the transformation of a spirit instrument..."
Having figured out the connections, Li Fan's gaze towards Gong Sun Qixuan had completely changed.
There was a hint of greed mixed with caution and vigilance.
A spirit instrument, once it is connected to the word 'celestial', is an existence that cannot be underestimated.
Furthermore, Gong Sun Qixuan had already caught the eye of the Tianxuan Mirror, and was like a timed bomb with countless mysteries added to him.
"Although it is a rare treasure, it is something that can be seen but not touched."
Li Fan stared at him for a long time, and sighed softly as he slowly withdrew his gaze.
"In addition, the main task of this world is to sever the True Immortal's web, which is currently in cooperation with the Tianxuan Mirror. There is no rush. I have already discovered his true identity. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
The desire in Li Fan's eyes slowly disappeared.
Meanwhile, Gong Sun Qixuan below furrowed his brows, as if sensing something.
He calculated with his fingers, but couldn't figure it out.
Images of previous encounters with Gong Sun Qixuan once again floated in Li Fan's mind.
"It seems that his original form was probably related to a spirit instrument involved in deduction."
"However, from his current behavior, it seems that his power has diminished significantly after transforming into a human."
Li Fan stroked his chin.
"But this has given me some inspiration."
"There are still many secrets waiting to be uncovered within the Xuan Huang Realm."
"In the past, there were many entities close to spirit instruments in the Xuan Huang Realm. Not to mention the integration of many immortal realms, with so many worlds, could there be no existence of equal status?"
"Even if some parts have been taken away by the transcendent, there should still be some that slipped through the cracks."
"In the past, they were restricted. In fact, they may not be restricted to instruments, but people may actually be the greater treasures."
