Chapter 1019: The Immortal Body of a Thousand Years
Even though he had long known the causes and consequences of the matter, Li Fan, watching it again, still felt a touch of heart-pounding awe when facing the might of the Immortal Ruins.
After the footage ended, Liu Ruchen phantom began to deliver his last will and testant.
His adopted son, Liu Yihang, would take over as the sect master of the dicine King Sect; if the other elders were willing to support and assist, that would be ideal.
If not, they could leave the dicine King Sect on their own, without any coercion.
Upon returning to the Xuanhuang Realm, do not rush for revenge; instead, lie low in Longevity Valley and bide your ti.
It was just as he had known before.
However, after temporarily gaining control of the dicine King True Cauldron, Li Fan did not leave in haste.
Instead, he continued to wait in this control room.
Even after Liu Ruchen's phantom fully dissipated, it did not depart.
He patiently waited for a short half-day, yet still, no signs appeared.
Li Fan pondered for a mont, then the Dissociation Disc rapidly activated, generating a formation in response.
A glint of cold light flashed in his eyes as Li Fan swiftly set up the formation in the control room.
The formation's primary function was to leave no place for any hidden remnant souls to escape!
Indeed, Li Fan suspected that Liu Rudchen of the dicine King Sect had not truly died!
This was not baseless conjecture.
After all, the current Li Fan could be said to have seen a great deal.
chanisms, formations, restrictions: what kinds of existences had he not encountered?
Yet the phantom before him that delivered the last will was not among those categories.
For it to sustain the image through such a long speech, so force must have supported it.
Since all external possibilities had been ruled out, the only remaining option was Liu Ruchen's own divine soul power!
With the formation complete, beams of crisscrossing light waves continuously swept through the space.
As Li Fan had anticipated, a figure that grew increasingly faint was forced to reveal itself once more!
It could not even manage divine sense communication, as if it might scatter into oblivion at any mont.
Sensing the faint helplessness and despair emanating from the other, Li Fan let out a cold snort.
He reached out and seized Liu Ruchen in his hand.
Without the slightest courtesy, Li Fan slowly infused source power, including the influence of the Faceless True Immortal, into it.
As Liu Ruchen's divine soul gradually clarified, his true self also appeared within Li Fan's sensory network.
“Sect Master Liu's cicada sloughing shell ploy was well played; it nearly fooled even this venerable one,” Li Fan said indifferently.
“Fellow Daoist jests,” Liu Ruchen replied with a bitter expression.
“I wonder which sect Fellow Daoist hails from?” he probed cautiously.
“The Xuantian Sect,” Li Fan said with a wicked grin.
“Hm?!” Liu Rudchen's divine soul trembled; already not very solid, it now seed on the verge of collapsing at any instant.
Finally steadying his mind, Liu Ruchen said with lingering fear, “Such a joke is best not made lightly...”
Before the words finished, a blood moon phantom instantly materialized behind Li Fan.
A pressure far surpassing that of ancient Dao Integration cultivators manifested. rely the aura alone nearly shattered Liu Ruchen's currently frail divine soul completely.
"You think I was lying? Your dicine King Sect fled not even half a day ago, but in the Xuanhuang Realm, thousands of years have already passed!" Li Fan sneered.
Liu Ruchen finally awoke as if from a dream: "What? Thousands of years?"
He pinched his fingers to calculate, confirming that Li Fan was not lying.
His already ethereal face grew even paler: "I knew it would affect ti and space, but I never imagined it would be to such an extent."
Though deeply shocked, Liu Ruchen was, after all, the sect master of a faction. He quickly regained his composure.
"So, does that an the Xuantian Sect has successfully revived and seized control once more?" Liu Ruchen asked cautiously.
"Heh." Li Fan gave a half-smile, then pointed slightly, transmitting the general state of the current Xuanhuang Realm to him.
Having learned of the millennial upheaval, Liu Ruchen fell silent for a long ti.
"Hmph, I occasionally learned of the hearsay that your dicine King Sect departed in ancient tis. Just recently, I saw a teor streak across the sky and had a sudden inspiration. I divined the cause and effect of this matter."
"According to the rules of our Xuantian Sect, fools like you, who are both stupid and incompetent traitors, are generally to be executed entirely." A glint of killing intent flashed in Li Fan's eyes.
But then he changed tack: "However, tis have changed. To overthrow the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and reestablish the Xuantian Sect, we need to gather every force that can be united."
"So, I'll give your dicine King Sect a chance..."
Li Fan looked at Liu Ruchen, his gaze turning fierce.
What other choice did Liu Ruchen have? Not only his own life, but the lives of the disciples slumbering in the dicine King Cauldron were all in the other's hands.
Liu Ruchen had no choice but to agree.
"Hmph, actually, your opinion doesn't matter. Since you've already paid respects to the True Immortal of Salvation and Mortal Compassion, you couldn't escape even if you wanted to." Li Fan said with a smile.
Liu Ruchen recalled the Faceless Stone Statue that had abruptly appeared in his divine soul earlier, and his heart stirred with unease.
Temporarily storing Liu Ruchen and the dicine King Cauldron into his Cave-Heaven, Li Fan returned to the Spiritwood Realm and summoned the Master Qiaogong.
Master Qiaogong was currently studying the Tianyang's divine manifestation and was interrupted by Li Fan, his face showing so displeasure.
"My friend here lost his body due to certain mishaps. Could you craft a puppet for him to inhabit?" Li Fan asked straightforwardly.
With Liu Ruchen's current divine soul strength, even barely maintaining a form was difficult.
Let alone restarting his cultivation.
Helping him restore his divine soul would be troubleso.
It was better to have the Master Qiaogong lend a hand.
The Master Qiaogong glanced at Liu Ruchen and nodded: "No problem! But a standard Heavenly chanism Puppet might not fully bring out his original strength, since he was at Dao Integration before, right?"
"As long as he can move, that's fine." Li Fan did not mind.
Reviving Liu Ruchen was rely to better control the dicine King Sect.
He no longer had any True Temptation Fruits on hand. If he used threats and bribes to make the dicine King Sect mbers submit one by one, it would carry so risk.
After all, signs of that had appeared in his previous life.
As long as Liu Ruchen was there, the dicine King Sect would not spiral out of control.
Master Qiaogong muttered under his breath and asked Li Fan for so materials.
Having lived in the Xuanhuang Realm for so years, the materials he requested were all native to the Xuanhuang Realm.
Li Fan quickly gathered them all.
"Um..."
"Could you provide so Source Power Essence?"
Just before starting to forge the puppet, the Master Qiaogong suddenly made a request.
Seeming afraid Li Fan might misunderstand, he explained proactively: "I've never used Source Essence before, so I need to give it a try, right?"
"Otherwise, if I apply it directly on little brother Tianyang, I wouldn't feel confident."
Li Fan was silent for a mont but ultimately agreed to the Master Qiaogong's request.
The Master Qiaogong imdiately beca excited.
He seed to scrap his previous forging plan and asked Li Fan for more materials.
Only then did he begin forging the Heavenly chanism Puppet.
And the forging process itself was quite novel.
He did not use any tangible flas but directly channeled golden source power from the void to temper the phantom form.
