Li Fan held the Brilliant Sphere in his hand and sent a wisp of his divine consciousness into it.
The next moment, his vision changed dramatically.
The connection with his main body was severed.
This wisp of divine consciousness had entered another body.
At the same time, a flood of information came rushing in like a tide.
His new host was no more than a mortal.
It took him several days to absorb all the information amidst throbbing headaches.
Li Fan’s expression turned peculiar.
Within the Brilliant Sphere was a fabricated space-time.
It was the end of a dynasty, where the bureaucracy was corrupt, and the people could barely survive.
Disasters struck from all sides, leaving countless bodies of the starved strewn about.
The common people yearned only for a full stomach, but it was merely a pipe dream.
Thus, in desperation, they rose up to fight back.
Now, smoke from battles rose in all directions, and where Li Fan found himself was in one of the Revolutionary Armies, an insignificant figure.
Because of his disorientation from digesting the knowledge, they thought he was stricken with a strange illness.
He was sent to be treated by the military doctor.
This military doctor also had some skills, and with just a glance, he prescribed a remedy to calm the mind.
As Li Fan came to his senses and was about to leave,
a prompt suddenly appeared before his eyes, "Found a talent for leadership, Bai Moxiu." 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓹𝓾𝓫.𝓬ℴ𝓶
"Current Favorability: 1."
Li Fan’s expression involuntarily became strange.
"What the hell is the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals playing at?"
Without much contact with the military doctor, Bai Moxiu, Li Fan took a tour of the Revolutionary Army camp instead.
In just three to four days, he found one "peerless general" and two "Ancient Divine Weapons."
There were countless other raw talents to be found.
Some only had a brief favorability prompt, while others even came with strategy reminders.
The preferences, dispositions, and weaknesses of others were crystal clear.
Li Fan became intrigued.
Following the prompts that appeared, he met them one by one and catered to their likes.
He quickly went from being a nobody in the Revolutionary Army to gaining some fame.
More than ten days later, he received a reminder that the official forces would stealthily attack at night.
But instead of warning anyone, he gathered a group of his confidants and secretly prepared.
The Revolutionary Army was instantly defeated without putting up a fight under the surprise night attack.
Li Fan, however, led a group of men and managed to escape by the skin of their teeth.
As the leader who guided everyone to survival, Li Fan gradually established his authority.
Later, following the prompt that appeared again before his eyes, he led no more than a hundred men on a long march and seized a small city left vulnerable due to a bandit extermination operation by the army.
He found a place of his own.
Using this as a starting point, he slowly assimilated surrounding forces.
In less than five years, he had cleared the realm, overthrown the corrupt dynasty, and became a monarch who founded a new era.
The scenery before his eyes shattered layer by layer.
Everything returned to nothingness.
As Li Fan was pondering the purpose of this illusory scene,
the sight before him changed once again.
It was another illusionary space-time.
This time, he was in a fictional Cultivation World.
The body he was in belonged to a mortal youth who had been rejected by the Tai Chu Sect for lack of a spiritual root.
The youth pleaded bitterly and was finally granted the status of a menial disciple.
He thought he would have to struggle through life,
but unexpectedly, he happened to pick up a Stone Bead in the back mountain by chance.
This Stone Bead had the heaven-defying effect of devouring surrounding objects, producing Spiritual Liquid, and improving one’s aptitude.
It was with this treasure that Li Fan transformed from a mere mortal into a cultivator.
And then he step by step reached Foundation Establishment, Gold Core, Nascent Soul...
In the process, he not only acquired three peerless beauties as romantic partners but also ancient mythical beasts as mounts.
```
He encountered one fortuitous event after another and discovered the tomb of a Fairy, obtaining a rare immortal instrument unique in the Immortal Cultivation World.
After a hundred years of adventuring through the Immortal Cultivation World, he ultimately became the strongest person of his time.
He took a beauty and shattered space as he left.
The scene shattered once again.
Upon returning from the Illusory Realm this time, Li Fan vaguely sensed that some changes had occurred in his mindset.
However, before he had time to analyze it, he plunged into the Reincarnation Illusory Realm once again.
Next, Li Fan experienced ninety-seven more rounds of reincarnation.
The encounters were more or less the same.
Generally, they began with a humble birth followed by a chance fortune. After that, a cliché story unfolded where he overcame all odds to become the strongest person in the world.
When all the reincarnations finally concluded, the Brilliant Sphere in Li Fan’s hand completely dimmed and vanished.
"..."
The experiences of ninety-nine lifetimes of reincarnation, although illusory,
were too realistic.
They were extremely similar to what he went through with Sister Zhao, incredibly lifelike and indistinguishable from reality.
After so many rounds of reincarnation, even someone with Li Fan’s willpower couldn’t avoid being somewhat affected.
He recited the Xuan Huang Immortal Heart Mantra slowly, gradually diluting these experiences.
"The Alliance of Thousands of Immortals has quite an interesting move," said Li Fan, his expression inscrutable.
This Brilliant Sphere had recently fallen like a torrential downpour into some territories of the Five Elders Organization.
Countless cultivators and mortals, out of curiosity, were captivated by the sphere.
They fell into ninety-nine lifetimes of reincarnation.
When they slowly woke up, although their bodies were unaffected,
their mindsets had undergone a drastic change.
That was...
Under the influence of the Illusory Realm, those who were once nothing more than ordinary people came to firmly believe they were the "chosen ones" upon awakening.
If it were just their unilateral belief, it wouldn’t have mattered much.
But they all became aware that they lived in a world forcibly transformed against the Principle of Heaven and Earth by the five Immortal Sovereigns.
Therefore, they each made grand vows to overthrow the rule of the Five Elders Organization.
To liberate the cultivators of the world from their miserable lives.
And after ninety-nine lifetimes of reincarnations, these people indeed changed somewhat.
They chose not to confront the issue directly but instead to hide.
First, they would cultivate, and then they would create havoc.
Although not explicitly stated, the tone from the Five Elders Organization suggested that the impact caused by this Brilliant Sphere was truly giving them headaches.
Li Fan mused thoughtfully, "Besides causing cultivators to subconsciously awaken, there is also some kind of psychic imprint."
"How can the so-called children of destiny submit to others!"
"They can even implant the thought of overthrowing the Five Elders Organization’s rule under the influence of the Five Celestial Venerables."
"What a great treasure!"
Naturally, Li Fan was not affected by this Brilliant Sphere.
In fact, even if he had been affected...
it wouldn’t have been a problem.
After all, unlike others,
with [Real] in his possession, he could truly be considered a child of destiny!
Li Fan looked at the Storage Ring sent by the Five Elders Organization, which seemed to contain densely packed, probably over a thousand Brilliant Spheres...
He stroked his chin.
"The cost of making this thing doesn’t seem too high, otherwise, they wouldn’t have scattered it on such a large scale."
He took out another sphere and began studying it.
In his sea of consciousness, the Dissociation Disc emitted a faint light as it worked on deciphering the sphere.
"There are traces of an Illusion Array."
"But more so..."
Li Fan slightly furrowed his brow, detecting a familiar sensation.
"Heart Ape Mind Horse?"
After a moment, he found similar elements from his past experiences.
