NOVPUBIn the following period, the Avatar of the Celestial Dharma Bearer appeared quite frequently.
Within a month, there had been a total of five appearances.
At one instance, the appearances were even as close as two days apart.
Originally, Li Fan thought that for the Chosen Immortals to use such a powerful technique, they must pay a significant price.
But judging from this frequency, it seemed not as he had thought.
The Avatar of the Law Transmission would appear in different state regions of the Five Elders Organization, and after forcing the Heavenly Sovereigns of the conference to act, it would quietly vanish.
Moreover, what was even more terrifying was that with each fleeting appearance, the avatar seemed to become more "lively."
It began with just opening its eyes.
Later on, it slowly tried to strike with its palm.
The avatar was improving at a pace visible to the naked eye.
It was hard to imagine that, if it tried enough times, would it actually become like the real Celestial Dharma Bearer.
"There’s no need to match the level of Law Transmission. Even if it has only one-tenth of the Celestial Dharma Bearer’s power, that would be enough to give the Five Elders Organization a hard time."
"No wonder the organization is in such a hurry. They have sent several messages in a row, wanting me to help investigate the details of the Thirty-three Chosen Immortals."
Li Fan sneered, "Unfortunately, this time I really am powerless to help."
Ignoring the Five Elders Organization, Li Fan focused his attention on the new visitor to the Spirit Tree Realm.
At this moment, led by Shang Tianci, the visitor was touring various places in the Spirit Tree Realm.
The visitor was even younger than Shang Tianci, but occasionally, a trace of evil flashed across his somewhat immature face.
"I say, Tianci, the scenery in the Small World is indeed good, but to name it the [United Federation of All Realms] seems a bit far-fetched, doesn’t it?"
The newcomer was none other than Yan Fangzhou, whom Shang Tianci went through great lengths to bring here.
Yan Fangzhou spoke disdainfully, "This so-called alliance of Ten Thousand Realms, just this few people? Truly a letdown, I even thought I was finally going to do something grand."
"I’m afraid not to mention overturning the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals. Even dealing with Shilin State’s performances and the Law Enforcement Hall would be problematic for you, right?"
Shang Tianci’s face turned red, ready to retort.
But suddenly, a cold voice interrupted, "Young age, big talk. Why not let them have a try?"
This voice, like the wrath of Heaven and Earth, echoed continuously in the Small World.
Yan Fangzhou’s expression changed slightly as he tried to locate the source of the voice.
However, he discovered that without knowing when, he had been isolated; Shang Tianci had disappeared from sight.
The entire Heaven and Earth seemed to be expanding infinitely, and he felt like an ant in the cosmos, finding everything vast and boundless.
And because of his earlier comments, it seemed like he had offended Heaven and Earth of this place.
Amidst the changing wind and cloud, an unimaginable killing intent enveloped him.
"Playing gods and ghosts!" Yan Fangzhou, after all, was a proud figure of his generation; not so easily frightened.
"Break for me!"
An illusion of the Black Flame suddenly appeared behind him.
The moment the Black Fire emerged, the turbulent sky instantly stilled.
A breath of annihilation leaked from the Black Flame.
All murderous intent of Heaven and Earth froze, then sank into oblivion.
Bang!
The surroundings shattered like broken glass, exploding layer by layer.
A look of triumph appeared on Yan Fangzhou’s face.
But his pride quickly disappeared.
Because what appeared before him next was still the same vast expanse of Heaven and Earth filled with infinite killing intent!
It was as if what he had shattered was merely a layer of illusion!
"No matter how many layers you have, break them all for me!"
Yan Fangzhou snorted coldly, and the Black Flame shot up like a falling star against the sky.
Everywhere it passed, space seemed to freeze then halted in stasis.
And then was brutally crushed by the black trajectory.
Surroundings changed in an instant, and the original scene appeared again.
The black streak continued unabated, rampaging straight ahead.
In the blink of an eye, countless layers of Heaven and Earth were shattered.
But...
No matter how many layers he shattered, the scene that enveloped and surrounded him from the outside remained unchanged, as if it were an endless maze.
Even if he disregarded the walls of the labyrinth and charged through them directly, he couldn’t see an end,
and so, he could only ever be trapped within this maze.
After an unknown amount of time, Yan Fangzhou’s face slowly began to lose its confidence,
turning from disbelief to increasing panic.
Once he finally confirmed that he couldn’t break through the blockade of this space and time, his expression abruptly changed several times.
"If you have the ability, come out and fight me fairly and squarely!"
"Do you really think you can subdue someone with these kinds of petty tricks?" 𝑛𝘰𝑣𝘱𝑢𝑏.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Yan Fangzhou declared loudly to the heaven and earth trapping him.
Unfortunately, what disappointed him was that it seemed the other party did not hear his words at all.
There was no response.
A fierce glint flashed in Yan Fangzhou’s eyes as he produced a gold Talisman Record covered in tracings of lightning,
and tossed it into the air.
Unexpectedly, this [Breaking Space Talisman], which had been unfailingly effective in the past, now lost its purpose.
It did not break open the space nor create an escape route,
but rather it aimlessly spun around in the air, as if lost.
Yan Fangzhou then proceeded to try all of his life-saving measures one after another,
but none were of any use!
Now, Yan Fangzhou was truly panicked.
"I admit defeat!"
"I shouldn’t have bragged! The United Federation of All Realms truly lives up to its reputation!"
Suppressing the malice in his eyes, Yan Fangzhou yelled towards the sky.
"I beseech my senior, please allow me to join the Union!"
The sky remained eerily quiet, still without any reaction.
Yan Fangzhou was stunned and, thinking that perhaps the other party had not heard him, he shouted several times more.
But the result was the same.
At this, Yan Fangzhou became somewhat bewildered.
...
Spirit Tree Realm.
Shang Tianci was puzzled to see Yan Fangzhou suddenly standing still, motionless.
After calling out to him several times without a response, as if Yan Fangzhou couldn’t hear him at all,
Shang Tianci finally realized something was wrong.
Around Yan Fangzhou, there seemed to be an invisible barrier encircling him,
not only preventing others from touching him, but it seemed he also couldn’t sense the outside world.
"Senior..." Shang Tianci said weakly to the suddenly appearing Li Fan,
"The lad is not bad, just needs some polish. Let’s leave him hanging for a year and a half," said Li Fan indifferently.
In his hand, a black flame flickered uncertainly, hopping about.
It seemed to be trying to break free from Li Fan’s grasp,
but was held tightly in check.
Shang Tianci dared not rebut; he could only lower his head and agree.
Li Fan watched Yan Fangzhou, who he had trapped using the Infinite Method, and stroked his chin.
With a thought, Yan Fangzhou was promptly transferred to the outside of the Black Jade Tower of the Union,
and set in a proper pose, as though he were a figurine.
"When he breaks down, we can let him out,"
"It will also be more convenient to train him."
Li Fan thought to himself.
