Chapter 1075 Solving the Mystery of the Fallen Immortal
"Since the creation of the New Law, there has not been a new Xuanhuang Celestial Master born. So, what exactly is going to happen..."
"No one knows," Zhou, the law transmission god, said solemnly.
Li Fan did not respond.
In his mind, the sentence from Mr. Bai, "There is an immortal road ahead that cannot be trodden, and the law-transmitting Celestial Master is above," appeared again.
If his guess was correct, Mr. Bai was able to ascend to the heavens and become an immortal because he had achieved the status of the Xuanhuang Celestial Master.
However, he did so at the cost of his own life, reversing the principle that "mortals cannot kill immortals."
Creating the immortal-mortal plague.
This indirectly indicates that even the Xuanhuang Celestial Master has no good way to deal with the reversal of the laws of heaven and earth.
"If we consider the Xuanhuang realm as a kind of exquisite creation, then the original Xuanhuang Celestial Master had the authority over this creation."
"But because Zhou discovered a flaw in this creation, he overturned the laws of heaven and earth, creating a new authority out of thin air. And, it can continue to erode the existing authority of the Xuanhuang realm."
"This has almost led to the current situation of the change of ownership in the Xuanhuang realm."
It's still the metaphor of comparing the Xuanhuang realm to a prison cell.
The original creator of the Xuanhuang realm left a central control room in the prison.
The Xuanhuang Celestial Master is the code name for the person who can enter the central control room.
In the central control room, everything in the Xuanhuang realm is under control.
Even creating the marvels representing some kind of law of the heavens is an easy task.
However, one day, a highly skilled unsolicited guest suddenly appeared in the prison.
He actually, by some means, cut off the control of the central control room over a certain part of the prison. And then took control of it.
And he also developed a large number of followers in the prison.
By directly changing the walls, he transformed the prison. Gradually consuming it.
The transformed and newly constructed parts naturally lost their control in the central control room.
...
"Currently, it seems that the current Xuanhuang Celestial Master's power is not as great as before."
"At least maybe not an opponent to Zhou."
"However..."
Li Fan's eyes flickered.
He is clear about his own situation, he shouldn't be able to meet the conditions to become the Xuanhuang Celestial Master.
However, he can find someone who meets the criteria, like Zixuan Tianwang and Mr. Bai, and after they become the contemporary Xuanhuang Celestial Master, he can then push them to confront Zhou.
To uncover the secrets of the law-transmitting Celestial Master.
Thinking like this, Li Fan frowned and asked, "So, since the situation is so urgent, shouldn't we do something now?"
"If Moru Bin really becomes the Xuanhuang Celestial Master, then things will be difficult."
Zhou, the law transmitter, also showed a helpless expression. "It's not that we don't want to do anything, it's just that there is really no good way."
"Many of us have tried, and we can't even pass the first test to become the Xuanhuang Celestial Master."
"Of course, if you are interested, you can try it yourself," Zhou said.
"Oh?" Li Fan was somewhat surprised.
"Okay, I'll try," he said. Having gathered all the latest information about Moru Bin, the immortal puppet Li Fan bid farewell and left.
In the secret room of the Spiritwood Realm.
Li Fan placed the four necessary items in the four corners.
Then he took four steps backward and chanted a spell.
Zhou, the law transmitter, said that the Immortal Alliance had sent tens of thousands of cultivators to try, but no one had succeeded.
Originally, Li Fan did not have much hope for himself.
But what surprised him was that after completing the reversal ceremony, a familiar dizziness instantly swept over him.
"I actually succeeded?" Li Fan was greatly surprised.
Before he could even think about it, his vision blackened, and he slowly lost consciousness.
"Junior brother, junior brother?"
A familiar voice came.
"What are you thinking? Why are you staring blankly for so long?"
Li Fan slowly regained his consciousness and looked around.
To his surprise, he saw a young cultivator wearing a purple and white Daoist robe, with a purple lightning mark between his eyebrows, looking towards him.
"This scene... It's so familiar!" It is nothing but the "Ningyuan Longevity Fruit" that he encounters every time he enters the Fallen Immortal Realm!
"Have I returned to the Fallen Immortal Realm again? Is there no difference?"
"No, this is a test to become the Xuanhuang Great Celestial Master?"
"To think that the content of this test is exactly the same as the simulations I did!"
This astonishing discovery could not help but shock him.
Since the first time he entered the Fallen Immortal Realm, Li Fan knew that his experiences were different from those of other cultivators.
But he did not know why this bizarre phenomenon was happening.
But now, Li Fan already has a faint answer in his heart.
"Xuanhuang Great Celestial Master..."
"Xuanhuang Cleansing Mantra, Xuanhuang Refining Heart Mantra, Xuanhuang Immortal Heart Mantra..."
"The Xuanhuang Cleansing Mantra is circulated among the people, used to clear the mortal's body of the immortal-mortal plague."
"And the immortal-mortal plague was caused by Mr. Bai's reversal of the laws of heaven and earth!"
Li Fan's thoughts turned quickly, and Mr. Bai's smiling face and gentle eyes flashed in his mind.
"Indeed. Mr. Bai is truly kind."
"Although he reversed the laws of heaven and earth, creating the immortal-mortal plague, from a broader perspective, it was to protect more mortals from being slaughtered by cultivators. It may even be part of a salvation plan for the world."
"But it also cut off the path for mortals to become cultivators."
"So, while he created the immortal-mortal plague, he also left behind a solution for people."
"If someone is determined to seek immortality, it is not impossible."
"Even someone like me, with an extremely firm will..."
Li Fan frowned.
"Someone like me..."
"A heart earnestly seeking the Dao. So much so that it may disregard everything else. In Mr. Bai's eyes, I am probably not a good person."
"So..."
Li Fan thought about the "Reverse Refinement of the Dao Heart" required for refining the immortal heart. He also thought about the various scenes he encountered in the Fallen Immortal Realm after practicing the Xuanhuang Refining Heart Mantra.
It seems more like guidance.
"The Ningyuan Longevity Fruit. To achieve the perfect condition, one must find a way to save all the mortals in the city."
"And the second act, the Mutou Sect's change, and the third act, the Tianjian Sect's sword forging..."
"To achieve perfection, it seems that all of them must also conform to the actions of the Xuanhuang Great Celestial Master."
"Are they trying to lead me to do good? Or, even if I can't, by reverse refining the Dao Heart, make my actions seem good."
Li Fan narrowed his eyes and instantly connected everything together.
