Chapter 1168 Silver Needle Refining Method
After a moment of contemplation, Li Fan couldn't help but shake his head, snapping out of his reverie.
Even if he had the ability to analyze the Fish Hook Pond, Li Fan would not easily choose to take action. The horrifying scene of Senior Shiban being inexplicably hooked before still vividly in his mind, how could Li Fan possibly repeat the same mistakes for a little gain?
Having learned from the lesson of the 119th generation, he would not actively provoke them until he was certain of being able to directly confront beings of the True Immortal level.
After all, the treasures in the Fish Hook Pond could be obtained slowly and continuously through patient fishing. It would just be a little slower, and time was the one thing he had plenty of.
"If the Garden of Infinite Radiance and Vast Obscurity Formation is derived, perhaps I can use the Refining Method Sphere to test its effectiveness."
His clone glanced briefly at his original self and pondered secretly.
In the Refining Method Sphere, it seemed that time had lost its meaning.
Everything seen every day was the unchanging image of the Refining Method Sphere constantly rotating. And the Refining Method Little Girl had already adapted somewhat to Li Fan's intimidation, gradually becoming more defiant. If it weren't for the other two guarding beings, Li Fan would have surely made her experience his methods.
But at the moment, it was not suitable to be too conspicuous, so he had to be patient for now.
"Friend Sun, calculate the time. The Grand Transmitter should come for an inspection in the next few days. We'll need to be careful then," while most of Li Fan's attention was focused on the derivation of the Garden of Infinite Radiance and Vast Obscurity Formation, the usually silent Huayueye suddenly remembered something and reminded him in a message.
Previously, he had been informed that Grand Transmitters would come for regular inspections, so Li Fan was not surprised and nodded in agreement.
"After the inspection by the Grand Transmitter, the use of the Mirrored Jade Medallion is likely to be reinstated. It should liven things up around here at that time."
"Those who come here to seek help from the Refining Method Sphere are either from an illustrious family background or have exceptional luck, indicating that their future achievements will be extraordinary. Perhaps, in addition to carrying out our duties, we can also make some good connections. Who knows, when we leave hundreds of years later, we might need these relationships," kindly advised Huayueye.
At this point, Elder Zhangxu also agreed, "That's right. Although the Refining Method Sphere remains unchanged over hundreds of years, the outside world might have changed drastically. Having an additional path is always good."
Although they were already powerful beings in the Joint Path, those who came to guard this place for five hundred years were not generally the core members of their families. Planning for the future was reasonable.
A half month later, as expected, the Grand Transmitter arrived for inspection.
The Grand Transmitter, Li Fan had met him before at the Transmitter Council.
Ignoring the three guardians, the Grand Transmitter came smilingly to the Refining Method Little Girl.
The Little Girl rolled her eyes, then covered her ears with her hands, looking as if she couldn't hear anything the Grand Transmitter said.
The Grand Transmitter seemed to have gotten used to this and wasn't upset.
A row of silver needles appeared on his side.
The Grand Transmitter picked up one of them and then pierced the head of the Refining Method Little Girl.
The Little Girl's body trembled slightly, but it seemed as if some force was restraining her. She couldn't resist, and could only let the silver needles fall on different acupoints on her body one by one.
This seemingly cruel scene left Zhangxu and Huayueye speechless.
But Li Fan could see something, his eyes flickering.
The needle technique of the Grand Transmitter was not coercion or control.
It was a top-notch therapeutic method to help regulate qi and blood, and to comb the meridians. Indeed, after waiting for half a day, when the Grand Transmitter finished the needling, the Refining Method Little Girl looked much better.
Her cheeks were rosy, as if she had just finished intense exercise.
"Not just healthier, but her human nature has become more active again."
Li Fan observed the Refining Method Little Girl carefully and finally noticed the clues.
During the time he had spent with the Little Girl, although she occasionally showed human temper, most of the time, she was working tirelessly like a pure machine, constantly deriving martial arts.
The desire to "slack off and rest" had probably arisen naturally due to overwork, not something inherent in her.
Moreover, as time passed, this purely materialistic aspect became increasingly apparent.
"No wonder the Grand Transmitter needs to inspect regularly to maintain the human nature of the Refining Method Sphere."
"Perhaps, compared to pure supernatural objects, the Refining Method Sphere, led by the pure Little Girl, can achieve better results."
And for the Grand Transmitter who was "helping" her, the Refining Method Little Girl had not shown a good attitude at all.
She glared at him angrily, until he left, revealing her dissatisfaction before slamming the table and falling asleep on it.
The day after the inspection was a period for the Refining Method Sphere to recuperate and rest.
The Little Girl slept soundly, snoring loudly.
Li Fan, however, noticed that the gigantic refining sphere above her head seemed to be rapidly changing and deriving something nonstop.
"Interesting," Li Fan muttered thoughtfully.
As Huayueye had predicted, once the Refining Method Sphere resumed its endless work, the restrictions on the Mirrored Jade Medallion were lifted.
In addition to the original duties, the Little Girl also had to take on the task of customizing martial arts.
No wonder her attitude towards these transmitters was so poor.
Except for a few handsome-looking cultivators.
But the responsibilities of the three guardians of the Joint Path had also increased.
After all, they had to be constantly on guard against whether any of these transmitters might be sent by other hostile forces.
Fortunately, the probability of this was not particularly high.
With three Joint Path guardians working together, there shouldn't be any problems in the short term.
...
In the Eternal Dynasty, outside the Small World.
The Immortal Array that was originally used to isolate mortals had been redesigned by Li Ping to become part of the Great Array of Heaven and Earth.
Li Ping even specially trained and raised a group of Boundary Breaking Whales to open up the void around the Small World, serving as a natural protective buffer.
At this moment, the seemingly empty dark void was secretly hiding a massive entity a hundred times larger than the Small World.
It was the Five Elements Grand Celestial Realm!
Baihua Daoist lived up to expectations. At almost the cost of falling into a deep sleep once again, he finally managed to secretly move it back without alarming the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
After all, as an ancient long-lived being, his strength was still superior to most ordinary joint paths.
Of course, the smooth completion of the task was also due to Li Ping's assistance with concealing the array.
The Holy Emperor, Li Ping, looked at the Five Elements Grand Celestial Realm from a distance, feeling the madness breeding inside it, and remained expressionless.
There is another chapter coming around 12:30.
