NOVPUBLi Fan looked at the light screens organized by the Huadao Stone before him.
"The scenes recorded here can generally be divided into two categories," he mused.
"One part consists of the memories of cultivators who have perished here over the years. They’re of little value."
"As for the rest..."
A flicker of excitement crossed Li Fan’s eyes.
"As I had guessed, they all come from the same person."
"One of the Twelve Law Kings of the Mystic Sky Sect, Ji Yuzhen!"
Li Fan’s divine consciousness made contact with one of the light screens.
In an instant, it was as if he was reliving the experiences, a torrent of scenes rushing in.
"Xuanyuan Big Brother? Haven’t you already ascended?" A soft feminine voice came from within him as Ji Yuzhen looked, apparently shocked, at the figure that had suddenly appeared before her.
"Hehe, it seems you are still the same, always cultivating in seclusion without concern for worldly affairs. I’ve been back for a while now," the man before her said with a firm face and eyes as bright as the abundant stars above. His tone was very gentle, calming to those who heard it.
"This Mr. Xuanyuan must be the King of Mystic Sky. Although he does not possess Mr. Bai’s breathtaking beauty, he’s nevertheless a rare handsomeness in the world," Li Fan thought to himself.
King of Mystic Sky sighed first, then spoke earnestly to Ji Yuzhen, "Yu Zhen, I wish to embark on a certain endeavor. It may put me at odds with the whole world. Are you willing to join me?"
Ji Yuzhen was momentarily taken aback, but then she didn’t hesitate at all.
She rose abruptly, her body’s surging spiritual power causing ripples to spread through the white clouds around the mountain peaks: "Yes!"
King of Mystic Sky looked surprised, "You won’t even ask what it is?"
Ji Yuzhen looked at King of Mystic Sky for a moment, then smiled warmly and shook her head slightly.
King of Mystic Sky averted his gaze from Ji Yuzhen, looking down with guilty conscience before breaking through the Cloud Sea and flying down the mountain.
Ji Yuzhen followed closely behind, her gaze resting on the back of King of Mystic Sky, lingering for a long time.
...
Withdrawing from the scene, Li Fan’s brows furrowed slightly.
He continued to view the second complete scene.
In a dark underground secret chamber.
King of Mystic Sky was recounting the knowledge he obtained after his ascension, as well as the observed phenomenon of the Xuanhuang World’s deviation.
Twelve silhouettes were scattered in every corner of the secret chamber.
Their expressions were hidden in the shadows just like their faces, invisible to the eye.
"This matter concerns the safety of countless living beings in the Xuanhuang World. We must not sit idly by. Xuan Yuanhong, please proceed without restraint; even if I have to sacrifice my life, I will support you with all my might," an elderly voice spoke up first.
Xuan Yuanhong bowed to the elder, with a solemn expression: "Elder Cui’s righteousness is admirable!"
Some people present echoed the sentiment.
But there were a few who remained expressionless and unmoved.
Ji Yuzhen’s eyes, however, were locked onto Xuan Yuanhong for the entire time.
...
In the cramped secret chamber.
"Yu Zhen, I have selected the most suitable technique for you from those Immortal World texts."
"’The Boundless Heavenly Pivot Divine Technique’."
Xuan Yuanhong’s face was full of excitement: "This technique is profound and unique, the likes of which I have seldom seen. Unifying body and soul, reaching the endless and boundless realm..."
He went on and on to Ji Yuzhen about the mystical aspects of the technique.
While Ji Yuzhen simply wore a slight smile, quietly listening.
...
Upon a battlefield drenched in blood.
Ji Yuzhen transformed into thousands of stray spirit fragments. With each divine soul turning into ghostly lights that flew out, the life of an opposing cultivator was taken.
While reaping the lives of her enemies, Ji Yuzhen’s gaze inadvertently drifted towards Xuan Yuanhong in the far distance of the battlefield.
There he stood, unfazed by the encirclement and attack of several Immortal Cultivators.
Above his head, an ancient small mirror emitted a calm radiance, sealing all nearby enemies within it.
Xuan Yuanhong’s eyebrows raised, and he uttered softly, "The Law shall not be infringed!"
A flash of radiance passed over him.
Then, the attacks from the five Immortal Cultivators that landed on Xuan Yuanhong had no effect whatsoever, as if they had all missed their mark.
```
"Body Giant Power," Xuanyuan Hong said again.
With a gentle stretch of his hand, he caught the massive seal that had suddenly appeared and nearly occupied half the sky above him.
"Eyes like torches!"
A golden light shot from Xuanyuan Hong’s eyes.
He scanned the five Immortal Cultivators besieging him, and wherever Xuanyuan Hong’s gaze fell, a golden chain appeared out of nowhere, binding them tightly!
In an instant, the battlefield dynamics reversed!
"Acting in accordance with the Heavenly Dao," Xuanyuan Hong said in a stern tone, as if at that moment, he exuded a dazzling divine majesty.
He gazed at the five ferocious Immortal Realm Cultivators before him, his form elusive, instantly appearing above their heads.
He lifted his left foot and stomped down fiercely.
It seemed that invisible ripples enveloped the five Immortal Cultivators.
Their expressions shifted from unwillingness to panic, and then to fear.
But Xuanyuan Hong showed no mercy.
In the blink of an eye, the bodies of the five Immortal Cultivators melted away like ice, vanishing into the air.
Only the phantom images of five fruits remained, emitting a strange radiance.
With a gentle wave of Xuanyuan Hong’s hand, the five fruits turned into five rays of light and shot into the sky.
The battle ended completely with the fall of the five Immortal Cultivators.
...
A space that resembled the endless starry sky.
"Xuanyuan Big Brother, is this the Floating Star Crossing Formation?"
Ji Yuzhen, looking at the scene before him, couldn’t help but chuckle, "It’s so ugly!"
Xuanyuan Hong remained composed: "As long as it serves its purpose."
In front of the two of them, countless golden chains wrapped tightly and intertwined around the Xuanhuang World.
It looked like a gold, flattened sphere, floating in the air.
The chains were not completely still; they seemed to be moving around some core within.
On the golden chains, countless intricate Talisman Records were engraved.
"Now, let’s start our first capture attempt."
Xuanyuan Hong’s voice even had a hint of nervousness.
As he spoke, hundreds of stars in the space ahead seemed to suddenly light up.
Xuanyuan Hong observed for a moment, then locked onto one of them.
"Go!"
With a light point of his finger, a chain flew out from the golden flattened sphere, heading straight for the targeted star.
The chain entered the void silently.
Without a single ripple.
As if it had been lost in the endless void.
Xuanyuan Hong kept his gaze fixed.
Only after several days did he shake his head with some regret: "The observation marker still deviated from the actual location."
"This capture attempt failed."
Saying this, he pointed lightly, and the golden chain that shot into the void began to return.
"Deviation? Is it because of the influence of that unknown force?" asked Ji Yuzhen softly.
"Exactly. It’s not just our Immortal Cultivation World; before long, perhaps the entire span of time and space will inevitably be affected by it."
Xuanyuan Hong sighed, "We must expedite our progress."
...
"Xuanyuan Big Brother, let me heal you."
In the secluded space, Ji Yuzhen sent out a Divine Soul, flying towards Xuanyuan Hong.
"Although it’s not as good as the true Immortal Spirit Energy, my ’The Boundless Heavenly Pivot Divine Technique’ has made some progress. As long as you consume my Divine Soul, your injuries should heal very quickly."
