Upon hearing this, Li Fan was startled. "How could this be? Could it be that the Xuanhuang World has some connection to the legendary Immortal Realm?"
Ai Tianjue's tone was unreadable. "Heh, it's all speculation, speculation! The history of the Xuanhuang World is quite intriguing. Once we dig more out of that Bluefeather fellow's head, those old codgers might just change their minds."
"It's just...whether it's a blessing or a curse for our Immortal Ark, only time will tell."
After a moment of silence, Ai Tianjue began Li Fan's formal lesson.
Li Fan wasn't calling him "Teacher" for nothing.
Unconstrained by the limitations of not being able to cultivate conflicting techniques, the true essence of their teachings was passed down from master to disciple.
After five years of apprenticeship under Ai Tianjue, Li Fan earned his recognition and received instruction in the "Jade Void Inner Scenery Weeping Spirit Cultivation Technique."
This profound technique was the very foundation of Ai Tianjue's own cultivation.
"Kan, Li, Qian, Kun reversed, Jade Void's profound art immersed. Azure Sea refines the void true, Weeping Spirit transforms, divine power imbued..."
Ai Tianjue held a luminous scroll, slowly reciting the contents of the Jade Void Inner Scenery Weeping Spirit Cultivation Technique.
Li Fan followed along, silently reciting the words.
It may have seemed like simple reading without detailed explanations, but with each rise and fall of Ai Tianjue's voice, which resembled the rhythm of the Dao itself, Li Fan's mind naturally conjured numerous insights into the Weeping Spirit technique.
This teaching method was actually a common practice within the Immortal Ark, a teaching technique in itself. Or rather, it resembled a divine ability known as "Sentience of All Beings."
It was said to have been acquired by the Immortal Ark from a remnant Star Sea world, greatly simplifying the process of inheritance and teaching within the Ark. Once introduced, it was widely acclaimed and adopted.
The effectiveness of "Sentience of All Beings" was closely tied to the aptitude and comprehension abilities of both the teacher and the student.
Ai Tianjue, being one of the most formidable experts within the Immortal Severance Tower, possessed an undoubtedly profound understanding of the True Immortal Character Seals.
As for the body of Zhao Xian that Li Fan was currently inhabiting, its aptitude was nothing short of exceptional. Coupled with Li Fan's extensive knowledge and experience gained through numerous reincarnations, his progress in cultivating the Weeping Spirit technique was astoundingly swift.
This Jade Void Inner Scenery Weeping Spirit Cultivation Technique was a supreme divine ability passed down through generations within the Profound Immortal Ark. Legend had it that it was acquired during the ancient era, before the path to the Immortal Realm was severed, when the Profound Merchant Immortal Ark exchanged a precious treasure for this extraordinary cultivation technique with a powerful cultivation sect from another world.
The inhabitants of the Profound Merchant Immortal Ark spent their lives traversing the Star Sea, venturing into various cultivation worlds. They had no fixed abode and found it challenging to truly calm their minds for cultivation.
The Weeping Spirit technique, however, perfectly addressed these two pain points.
The essence of the technique lay in constructing an "Inner Scenery World" within one's own soul.
Within this Inner Scenery World, one cultivated through "Weeping Spirit." "Weeping" referred to crying.
It didn't mean one had to literally cry during cultivation, but rather to emulate the natural, heartfelt, and unobstructed feeling that arose instinctively when one cried.
Over time, everything within the Inner Scenery World would become effortlessly controlled by one's will.
While the cultivation speed of other techniques gradually slowed down with each realm advancement, the Weeping Spirit technique was initially slow, requiring practitioners to fully immerse themselves and establish an emotional connection with their Inner Scenery World. But as one progressed, the cultivation speed would only accelerate.
The Weeping Spirit technique didn't require seclusion. Even a mere half-day of practice could deepen the emotional bond with one's Inner Scenery World. And those who were more emotionally sensitive and perceptive were particularly suited for this cultivation technique.
Although Li Fan couldn't recall the last time he had truly cried, for Master Li, who possessed the ability to transform falsehood into reality, simulating and recreating the emotional fluctuations of crying was no difficult feat.
While he wasn't privy to the cultivation progress of Ai Tianjue's other disciples, the fact that Ai Tianjue always provided Li Fan with individual lessons spoke volumes about the importance he placed upon him.
Half a day passed, and Ai Tianjue finally finished reciting the entirety of the Weeping Spirit technique. Letting out a long breath, the sweat on his forehead instantly evaporated.
Li Fan, however, remained with his eyes closed, seemingly still immersed in Ai Tianjue's teachings.
"Are there any parts that are unclear?" Ai Tianjue asked.
"This student has understood everything," Li Fan replied respectfully.
Ai Tianjue nodded slightly, a hint of approval in his eyes. "Once you return, you must diligently recite it daily, never neglecting your practice. Your cultivation of the Weeping Spirit technique has reached a critical juncture. Once your Inner Scenery World takes shape, you'll be able to control it with a mere thought. In half a year, you might just catch up to me."
Li Fan nodded in acknowledgment.
Ai Tianjue added, "Although the prevailing view within the Immortal Ark emphasizes the study of True Immortal Character Seals as paramount, you must also remember that cultivation realm and strength form the foundation for all exploration and comprehension. Without a solid foundation, even if one manages to ascend to great heights by chance, the risk of plummeting from grace remains ever-present…"
Ai Tianjue continued, his words bordering on nagging.
However, this was something that every teacher within the Profound Immortal Ark took to heart.
Li Fan bowed respectfully and took his leave, thinking to himself, "The teacher treats his students with sincerity, and the students repay their teacher with respect. This is the true legacy that has allowed the Profound Immortal Ark to endure for millennia. The Immortal Pivot Institution, the Immortal Severance Tower, they're nothing more than facades. The true essence lies in these lineages of masters and disciples."
Emerging from Ai Tianjue's residence, Li Fan didn't immediately depart from the Immortal Severance Tower.
Instead, he turned and sought out another elder:
Chi Gongdao.
Although Li Fan had no formal master-disciple relationship with Elder Chi, his unique insights into the True Immortal Character Seals, which he had submitted on numerous occasions, had earned him the elder's recognition.
Unlike Ai Tianjue, who was somewhat "traditional," Chi Gongdao was undoubtedly a radical within the Immortal Ark.
He advocated for abandoning all other foundations of cultivation and dedicating oneself entirely to the pursuit of the True Immortal Character Seals.
It had to be said that Chi Gongdao's understanding of the True Immortal Character Seals possessed a certain depth that others lacked.
Based on Li Fan's assessment, among all the elders in the Immortal Severance Tower, Chi Gongdao had deciphered the most True Immortal Character Seals and achieved the highest level of accuracy in his restorations.
Moreover, Chi Gongdao possessed a closely guarded secret: he could pinpoint specific World Annihilation relics from the boundless Sea of Relics—relics where the power of the True Immortal had begun to dissipate but could still be harnessed by the cultivators of the Immortal Ark.
It was said that a significant majority, perhaps eight or nine out of ten, of the dual True Immortal power relics within the Immortal Severance Tower were discovered by this very Elder Chi.
Consequently, his standing within the Immortal Severance Tower, and indeed the entire Immortal Ark, was exceptionally high.
A gust of cold wind, accompanied by faint whispers, greeted Li Fan as he pushed open the door to a small tower.
Already accustomed to this, Li Fan paid it no mind and proceeded directly to Chi Gongdao, taking a seat.
A writing brush, seemingly composed of flesh and hair, instantly materialized before Li Fan.
As Li Fan reached for the brush, before his hand could even make contact, the hairs on the brush sprang to life, rapidly extending and ensnaring his right hand.
The image of an incomplete True Immortal Character Seal surfaced in his sea of consciousness, and his hand began to move in tandem.
Drops of blood oozed from the tip of the brush, congealing into ink that left indelible marks in the air.
To be honest, during his first visit here, Li Fan had nearly exposed himself, on the verge of writing out a complete True Immortal Character Seal.
Had he not reacted swiftly, the Immortal Ark would have likely been obliterated by the world-ending might of a complete seal.
The brush danced across the air, splattering crimson ink as it went.
Before long, a distorted and incomplete True Immortal Character materialized.
It was half of the character for "Hunger."
"Hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry!"
A furious roar emanated from the brush in his hand as the hair strands tightened their grip, some even attempting to burrow into Li Fan's flesh like worms, eager to devour him from within.
Li Fan narrowed his eyes. Instead of expending his physical or spiritual energy to repel them, he allowed his flesh to be consumed, experiencing the ravenous hunger of the hair strands.
The strands, however, seemed content with a mere taste and quickly retreated. The brush slipped from his grasp, flying back into the darkness.
Moments later, eerie sounds of chewing filled the air, interspersed with the occasional crunch of bone.
Chi Gongdao's voice rang out. "Not bad, the flavor is even purer than last time."
"Young Zhao, you're a true prodigy. If that old Ai wasn't so stubborn, I would have taken you as my disciple already."
Li Fan didn't reply, instead saying in a low voice, "Elder Chi, I feel like my comprehension of this particular character has reached a bottleneck. I'd like to switch to a new one."
Chi Gongdao chuckled. "Heh heh, ambitious. I like that!"
Seven more brushes, identical in their composition of flesh and hair, emerged from the darkness, hovering before Li Fan.
"Take your pick!"
Li Fan closed his eyes, sensing the distinct auras emanating from each brush.
"This one."
After a long moment of contemplation, Li Fan made his choice, reaching for the leftmost brush, the one with the dullest flesh.
Flesh churned, black hair clung to him.
Guiding his hand, they began to write in the void.
With sweeping strokes, a blood-red True Immortal Character slowly took form.
Li Fan focused his mind on comprehending it. The remaining six brushes had vanished without a trace.
"Alone."
"Throughout eternity, only I am alone."
During his journey across the Star Sea, Saint Embryo Li Fan had encountered this True Immortal Character Seal once before.
At that time, even the Heavenly Wonder of the Black Sword, which had already fused with his Dao Foundation, had shown signs of being separated by its power.
And now, Li Fan once again sensed that same formidable power emanating from the crimson character before him.
However, there seemed to be a subtle barrier in the surrounding space, suppressing the full extent of "Alone" and the other manifested True Immortal Character Seals.
To Li Fan's perception, time seemed to stretch and compress simultaneously.
By the time the character "Alone" was fully inscribed, he was left with a lingering sense of wanting more.
This process of deciphering the essence of a True Immortal Character Seal through its manifested power was undeniably captivating.
The brush that had been entwined with his hand returned to the darkness.
Chi Gongdao's cackle echoed in Li Fan's ears once more. "Young Zhao, yearning for more, are we? If you abandon the darkness and come work with me instead of that old Ai, I guarantee I'll personally teach you everything I know about these True Immortal Character Seals..."
Li Fan's expression remained unchanged. "Your concern is appreciated, Elder, but it's unnecessary. Should I require further guidance, I'll be sure to offer my insights in exchange, as always."
Without waiting for Chi Gongdao's response, Li Fan turned and departed.
Silence descended upon the tower for a moment before Chi Gongdao's voice rang out again. "Such unwavering resolve, I like you even more…"
"Heh heh heh heh..."
Little did Chi Gongdao, despite his eagerness to have Li Fan as a disciple, realize that with just a single firsthand experience, Li Fan's understanding of the character "Alone" had already quietly surpassed his own.
After all, Li Fan had the inherent advantage of having witnessed a complete True Immortal Character Seal with his own eyes, coupled with his past experience of enduring the residual power of the "Alone" technique. It was only natural that his comprehension would skyrocket.
"Let's see if I can decipher more on my own. If I fail, I can always leverage the talents of those within the Immortal Ark."
"After all, the more power I can wield from the True Immortal Character Seals, the better."
Returning to his residence, Li Fan began to organize the knowledge he had gleaned from Ai Tianjue and Chi Gongdao.
He waited for their next summons.
His life within the Profound Immortal Ark was both simple and monotonous.
Meanwhile, within the Xuanhuang World...
The cultivators of the Myriad Immortal Alliance remained fixated on the Otherworldly Rainbow Light.
Although its frequency had decreased slightly, the Myriad Immortal Alliance continued to release occasional glimpses of the Dark Star Sea.
The perils and calamities depicted within those images sent shivers down the spines of those residing within the safety of the Xuanhuang World.
"It's best to simply watch from afar. They always seem to escape danger, blessed by the protection of the Heavenly Venerates. We might not be so fortunate."
"No wonder the Alliance was reluctant to send anyone to the Star Sea before. It's simply too perilous. We haven't even seen a shadow of the Profound Merchant Immortal Ark yet, and already so many Dao Integration experts have perished. How many will actually make it back alive?"
"As appealing as the Immortal Ark may be, there's no place like home!"
Amidst these discussions, however, Holy Emperor Li Ping had begun to discern certain discrepancies.
Having personally traversed the starry river, he could tell that the images released by the Myriad Immortal Alliance, while seemingly authentic, contained inconsistencies compared to his own experiences.
"Is the Myriad Immortal Alliance fabricating these events?"
"It seems the true Otherworldly Rainbow Light expedition may have met with an unfortunate fate," Li Ping mused with a hint of regret.
The Holy Dynasty had once again amassed a sufficient quantity of Clear Void Flowing Crystals. Li Ping intended to personally venture beyond the borders of the Xuanhuang World, not only to cultivate but also to familiarize himself with the potential battleground where he would eventually confront the Dharma Venerate and the Heavenly Physician.
Unbeknownst to all, amidst the celestial tapestry, the Holy Emperor soared towards the edge of the Xuanhuang World.
This time, Li Ping declined the offer from the Xuanhuang Heavenly Dao to accompany him. After all, his journey wouldn't take him far; he would remain within the vicinity of the Xuanhuang World.
As layers of iridescent light peeled away, he began to break free from the pull of the Immortal Ruins, venturing into the dark void.
"Perhaps relying on these Clear Void Flowing Crystals isn't strictly necessary."
"The essence of the Xuanhuang World, the manifestation of its laws... perhaps their properties can be replicated using spiritual energy."
Gazing at the mesmerizing, multicolored lights surrounding him, Li Ping pondered.
Gradually, the Xuanhuang World shrunk to a tiny, almost imperceptible point of light.
Li Ping shifted his gaze towards the location of the Immortal Ruins.
Darkness shrouded that region.
The remnants of the ancient path to the Immortal Realm devoured all light and prying eyes.
A few fragmented images flickered in his mind. For some inexplicable reason, Li Ping felt an odd sense of familiarity towards the enigmatic Immortal Ruins.
Although fleeting, this sensation didn't escape the Holy Emperor's notice.
"The Immortal Ruins..."
Li Ping shook his head, suppressing the thought after a long pause.
His immediate priority was to address the matter of the Xuanhuang World being usurped and its fate altered.
As for escaping the clutches of the Immortal Ruins after achieving his goals...
Ever since that day when Mo Rubin had revealed that the unique nature of the Nether race stemmed from the bloodline of the first Grand Heavenly Venerate of the Xuanhuang World, Li Ping had been attempting to utilize the Cat Deity's abilities to replicate this bloodline on a large scale.
So far, he had discovered three distinct abilities possessed by the Cat Deity: item duplication, living being simulation, and essence extraction and infusion.
First, Li Ping had gone to great lengths to have the Cat Deity simulate a member of the Nether race.
Then, he used the "essence extraction and infusion" ability to transfer the recorded data of the simulated being into an ordinary human.
By employing this indirect method, he could then use the "item duplication" ability to create copies of the infused human.
Perhaps it was due to the Cat Deity acting as an intermediary, bypassing certain restrictions, but the resulting duplicates actually possessed a portion of the abilities derived from the Nether bloodline.
Although their efficiency in praying for and generating Origin Essence was approximately one-fifth that of a true Nether individual, the advantage was that there were no limitations. With the Holy Dynasty's advanced flesh-crafting technology, as long as resources permitted, they could produce these duplicates in practically unlimited numbers.
This effectively solved, at least temporarily, the energy shortage faced by both the Holy Dynasty and the Abyssal Dark Sea.
Deep within the Abyssal Dark Sea, the Spirit Convergence Ascension Formation hummed with energy as it gathered power.
Li Ping estimated that within a century, it would accumulate enough force to break free from the Immortal Ruins.
However, before that, his task was to resolve the issue of the "legitimate" ruler of the Xuanhuang World.
Snapping back to the present, Li Ping subconsciously glanced at his shoulder.
The Cat Deity remained perched there.
However, it had turned its head away, avoiding Li Ping's gaze.
It seemed that even for the Cat Deity, replicating the bloodline of the first Grand Heavenly Venerate of the Xuanhuang World was no easy feat.
It had spent the majority of its time lately in slumber.
Furthermore, the Cat Deity had grown somewhat distant towards Li Ping.
He had a premonition that if their bond continued to weaken, the Cat Deity might choose to leave at any moment.
After all, there was no formal master-servant pact between them.
Their current arrangement was solely based on Li Ping's offering of Origin Essence as a reward.
Conjuring a ball of golden light, Li Ping placed it upon the Cat Deity's head.
As he ventured deeper into the void, Li Ping began to comprehend the surrounding laws of the starry river.
As for the ever-present calamities scattered throughout the Star Sea…
The occasional twitch of the Cat Deity's tail served as a guide, leading Li Ping along a safe path.
Combined with his previous experience navigating the starry river, he encountered no significant dangers on his journey.
"If the final battle were to take place outside the Xuanhuang World, the advantages provided by the world itself would be greatly diminished."
"Apart from the Cat Deity's various abilities, perhaps harnessing the power of these omnipresent calamities within the Star Sea could offer another path to victory."
Outside the void surrounding the Great Enlightenment Small World lay the sealed ruins of the Beginning Sect and the terrifying Abrasive Wind Calamity.
While maintaining the seal, Li Ping had also been studying this particular calamity.
Compared to the various other calamities within the Dark Star Sea, the Abrasive Wind Calamity possessed the power of pure annihilation.
Li Ping suspected that even the other calamities of the Star Sea would gradually wither and decay under the influence of the Abrasive Wind.
"Ultimately, these Star Sea calamities are nothing more than the remnants of spells and techniques employed by True Immortals."
"Albeit on a scale beyond our mortal comprehension."
"If the Abrasive Wind Calamity can neutralize them, then in a way, it might be possible to harness their power for my own use."
"But I need to find the right approach..."
A thought struck Li Ping. Ignoring the Cat Deity's warning, he flew towards a dangerous region in the distance.
Origin Essence, radiating a golden light, enveloped his body, forming a protective barrier.
Li Ping calmly observed the peculiar changes occurring on the surface of the Origin Essence shield.
Under the Cat Deity's bewildered gaze, Li Ping felt his surroundings plunge into an even deeper darkness.
Unlike the darkness of the Dark Star Sea, devoid of light and life, this darkness felt different.
It was as if he was being gradually stripped of his connection to the world, drifting further away from everything within the Star Sea.
Not only were his external connections being severed, but even the ties within him, his connection to the Xuanhuang World…
Even the threads that linked him to other unknown and mysterious entities…they were all fading away.
A strange sense of detachment washed over the Faceless Holy Emperor, who had always been deeply concerned about the Xuanhuang World.
The Xuanhuang World, along with the countless lives it held, suddenly felt insignificant.
The burdens he had carried for so long seemed to be lifting.
A gentle nudge on his shoulder abruptly snapped Li Ping out of this state.
Only then did he realize that even amidst a True Immortal Character Seal calamity, as his connection to the world dwindled…
The Cat Deity remained faithfully perched upon his shoulder.
It showed no signs of leaving his side.
With a surge of Origin Essence, Li Ping swiftly retreated from the area engulfed by the calamity.
"It seems that particular True Immortal Character Seal has a pronounced effect on me."
"'Alone,' or perhaps…'Solitary'?"
Li Ping stared intently at the region, deep in thought.
Another ball of golden light materialized in his hand, which he then placed upon the Cat Deity's head.
This time, the Cat Deity, without a hint of hesitation, took a large bite before dozing off again.
Back in the Sun family residence, within the hidden underground chamber…
Li Fan's divine sense registered the complete severance of his connection with his Holy Emperor clone.
A flicker of regret crossed his mind.
"That last sensation…was it the power of a True Immortal Character Seal?"
"'Alone'?"
"Through a strange twist of fate, he used its power to break free from my control entirely."
However, after a brief moment of contemplation, Li Fan accepted this outcome.
Given the level of power the Holy Emperor had attained, attempting to maintain direct control over him like a mere chess piece was unrealistic.
Moreover, with the aid of the enigmatic Cat Deity…
If the Holy Emperor couldn't even sever his ties to Li Fan's main body, then Li Fan would have to question whether he was truly capable of forcing the Dharma Venerate and the Heavenly Physician to reveal their full strength.
As for the Holy Emperor's well-being…
Or rather, the safety of Li Ping…Li Fan harbored no concerns.
After all, if his Saint Embryo could withstand the "Alone" technique, then Li Ping, with his superior cultivation and numerous fortuitous encounters, would undoubtedly survive as well.
"The general course of action has been set. All that remains is to watch his performance unfold."
"Regardless of the outcome, the gains in this life have been more than sufficient."
"So much so that I'm almost overwhelmed."
As Li Fan pondered these matters, a familiar voice suddenly reached his ears.
"Senior, when can we venture outside? I've grown quite weary of being confined here."
Li Fan turned his gaze, his eyes unreadable.
The voice belonged to Sun Luyao.
However, both his demeanor and tone had now reached a level of realism that made it difficult to distinguish truth from fabrication.
Through Li Fan's relentless efforts, aided in no small part by the insights gained from his Saint Embryo's experiences within the Immortal Ark, he had finally succeeded in crafting a passable simulated personality for Sun Luyao.
This Sun Luyao was completely oblivious to his own artificial nature.
His consciousness and memories had been restored to a point in time before Li Fan had purged the Abrasive Wind Calamity from his body, back when Li Fan had promised to take him on a journey to both explore the world and search for other potential Immortal Artifacts.
"What is it?" Sun Luyao asked, seemingly intimidated by Li Fan's intense gaze.
"Heh heh." Li Fan offered a gentle smile.
"It's nothing, just reminiscing about something pleasant."
"Since you're so eager, we'll head out today."
Sun Luyao's face lit up with excitement. "Excellent!"
Employing the same method as before, Li Fan created a fabricated Sun Luyao and the Boundless Mirror. Then, his divine sense, accompanied by their "original" counterparts, departed from the underground chamber.
"Where shall we go first, Senior?"
After surveying their surroundings, Sun Luyao inquired, "I haven't detected any signs of potential Immortal Artifacts within the immediate vicinity."
"We're making preparations," Li Fan replied simply.
With a burst of speed, he arrived at the entrance to a small world, stepping into the spatial passage without hesitation.
"Huh? This small world… it's filled entirely with plants?"
Sun Luyao observed their surroundings with curiosity.
Towering, dense vegetation, reminiscent of a tropical rainforest, competed for sunlight, their branches reaching towards the sky.
Occasionally, they spotted vines slithering in the shadows like pythons, stealthily wrapping themselves around towering trees and driving sharp thorns into their trunks.
Before long, the trees would wither and collapse, creating a gap in the canopy.
Within moments, the influx of sunlight would spur the growth of nearby plants, rapidly filling the void.
"Senior, this small world appears to be in a primitive stage of development. There shouldn't be any Immortal Artifacts here," Sun Luyao remarked, his gaze still captivated by the scenery, yet fulfilling his duty to offer advice.
"We're not searching for Immortal Artifacts today. I'm going to teach you a formation. Once you've mastered it, I'll entrust you with the task of setting it up," Li Fan stated calmly.
Sun Luyao's spirits soared. "Thank you, Senior! I won't disappoint you!"
"Observe carefully. This formation is known as…"
"Primordial Spirit Void!"
Li Fan ascended into the sky of this small, primeval world.
Beams of light radiated from his body, momentarily obscuring the sun above.
The already dimly lit rainforest world was plunged into true darkness.
From the perspective of Sun Luyao, the Boundless Mirror Spirit, the light emanating from Li Fan transformed into intricate formation units.
Even with his foundation as an Immortal Artifact, deciphering them proved to be an arduous task.
As the formation neared completion, an unsettling sense of familiarity, tinged with fear, washed over Sun Luyao.
"This is…"
Sun Luyao's face paled. After a long pause, it dawned on him.
It was the same feeling of imminent peril that had gripped him every time he had faced the Abrasive Wind Calamity!
His instincts screamed at him that remaining here, witnessing the completion of this grand formation, would spell his doom!
The Boundless Mirror trembled violently, transforming into a streak of light as it shot towards Li Fan.
Li Fan paid it no heed, his focus solely on perfecting the formation.
"Unfortunately, I lack both the necessary materials and the full extent of my power as a mere divine sense projection. I can't unleash the true potential of the Primordial Spirit Void Formation."
"However, it should suffice for what I need."
After ten days, the Primordial Spirit Void Formation was complete.
A devastating beam of energy descended, obliterating the small world in its entirety.
Meanwhile, Li Fan's divine sense, along with the Boundless Mirror, had returned to the Xuanhuang World.
"Did you manage to grasp the formation I just demonstrated?"
The fabricated Sun Luyao remained silent for a long moment.
The structure maintaining his simulated personality had been shattered by the residual energy of the Primordial Spirit Void Formation.
"Useless waste," Li Fan muttered coldly.
