After spending another half a month ensuring that the Dissociation Disc's plan to break the restriction had no major issues, Li Fan did not delay any further. He imdiately contacted Mo Rubin and the Tianxuan Mirror clone to inform them of the situation.
Mo Rubin carefully examined the jade slip that contained the incredibly intricate formation patterns for quite so ti.
When he finally finished, he rubbed his temples and frowned. “I cannot make sense of this. You had better consult the Tianxuan Mirror clone once more. After all, once this is confird, it will be difficult to change anything later.”
The human clone of the Tianxuan Mirror read through the contents of the jade slip carefully. As he continued, his eyes gradually lit up.
“Marvelous. Truly marvelous. Subtle and profound, appearing simple yet deeply intricate. It points directly to the Great Dao itself…”
The clone of the Tianxuan Mirror was imrsed in it for a long ti before suddenly raising his head sharply toward Li Fan. “Such an formation… how did you derive this?”
There was clear suspicion in his eyes. It was obvious that the clone did not believe Li Fan possessed such ability.
Li Fan smiled faintly, his eyes moving slightly. Thinking of his previous speculation regarding Immortal Artifact transformation, he said, “? I could never deduce such a complicated formation. But each has their own field of expertise. Just because you and I cannot accomplish it, does not an others cannot. Do you really think that your Tianxuan Mirror is the strongest existence within the Xuanhuang Realm?”
“We of the Xuantian Sect once possessed an Immortal Treasure…”
Li Fan let out a cold snort, then abruptly stopped speaking.
The Tianxuan Mirror stared directly at Li Fan, as if trying to see through him. Unfortunately, he could not discern anything from Li Fan’s calm expression.
After a mont of silence, it was the Tianxuan Mirror clone who spoke first. “Very well. Regardless of how you obtained this forbidden-breaking thod, by my judgnt, it should indeed be able to remove the restriction left by the Immortal Ancestor.”
“However…” The clone suddenly changed his tone. “To ensure absolute certainty, we must first perform a verification.”
Li Fan narrowed his eyes. “Verification? How do we verify it?”
The Tianxuan Mirror clone spoke slowly. “The restriction left by the Immortal Ancestor was not placed solely upon .”
“Hm?”
The clone paced back and forth, seemingly deep in thought.
After so ti, he finally said in a low voice, “To maintain the stability of the Xuanhuang Realm, the Immortal Ancestor once purged nearly all unstable elents within it.”
“I call this act the Purification of Xuanhuang.”
“Those that could be destroyed were completely annihilated. Those that could not…”
“…were sealed away by restrictions for eternity.”
Li Fan’s face revealed a look of interest. “There was such a thing?”
The Tianxuan Mirror clone replied indifferently, “Otherwise, how could the Xuanhuang Realm remain so peaceful? Multiple realms have been rged, yet throughout most of recorded history, it has remained stable and calm. That in itself is unbelievable.”
Li Fan slowly nodded, acknowledging the reasoning.
After all, even in the mortal Great Xuan Dynasty, history had always followed the pattern of long division followed by unity, and unity followed by division.
Yet since the Great Calamity and the rebirth of the Xuanhuang Realm, the world had been locked in a two-polar confrontation between the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance and the Five Elders Association.
Although minor wars and frictions occasionally occurred, they seed more like a ans of regulating the overall number of cultivators rather than true conflicts.
Behind all of this, there was undoubtedly the hidden hand of the Immortal Ancestor manipulating matters from the shadows.
"So, which forbidden area should we use for the experint? Won't it alert the Immortal Ancestor?" Li Fan was deeply intrigued by the unstable factors that the Immortal Ancestor had sealed away, as Tianxuan had described. He imdiately asked.
"I am considering it as well." The clone of the Tianxuan Mirror furrowed his brows, seemingly caught in a difficult decision.
After a long while, he finally gave an answer.
"The sealed objects cannot pose too great a threat. When the Immortal Ancestor sealed them back then, he often left a trace of attention on them. Although thousands of years have passed, we cannot guarantee that the attention has completely vanished."
"It is best to choose sothing that the Immortal Ancestor sealed in a fit of anger. It poses no real threat to the Xuanhuang Realm; it was rely sealed because it offended him. To the Immortal Ancestor, it was like swatting a rat casually. After so many years, he may have long forgotten about it."
The Tianxuan Mirror clone's eyes grew brighter as he spoke.
Finally, he looked at Li Fan: "Have you heard of the [Du'e Sect]?"
"The Du'e Sect?" Li Fan's heart jolted.
His expression changed dramatically, revealing a trace of anger: "Isn't that one of the ten traitorous sects from back then? You are not suggesting I go and break their seal, are you?"
Li Fan waved his hand in outright refusal: "Impossible! For such traitors, I would consider it rcy not to exterminate them all, let alone go and rescue them?"
"Hmph, it seems the Immortal Ancestor has his rits after all. Sealing away this trash for so long..."
"Well done, Immortal Ancestor!"
As if the three words "Du'e Sect" had touched Li Fan's reverse scale, his entire state suddenly beca sowhat unstable.
At tis he sneered coldly, at tis he grew agitated.
The Tianxuan Mirror clone observed Li Fan for a mont before explaining: "Heh, you need not worry on that front. The people of the Du'e Sect should have been killed off by the Immortal Ancestor long ago. What he sealed was rely so arrangents left behind by the Du'e Sect."
"Those things have already perated deep into the Xuanhuang Realm and are difficult to eradicate. Even the Immortal Ancestor could not destroy them completely, so he could only seal them away."
"They are re dead objects. If you go to test breaking the seal and succeed, as long as you do not touch the things inside, no anomalies will manifest. This is already the most suitable place I have screened for an advance test."
Hearing the Tianxuan Mirror clone's words, the image of densely packed paper figures existing in the Xuanhuang Realm, used to monitor everything, instantly surfaced in Li Fan's mind.
"The Du'e Sect..."
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, and finally, his expression gradually steadied: "If that is the case, where is the sealed location of the Du'e Sect?"
"I shall follow your lead and give it a try."
"However..."
"This journey carries considerable danger. Do you have any compensation?" Li Fan's gaze burned intently.
The Tianxuan Mirror clone imdiately looked sowhat helpless: "I have not yet recovered for the ti being. We can discuss it after you return successfully."
"As for the location of the Du'e Sect's seal..."
The Tianxuan Mirror clone's expression turned sowhat serious.
He broke off another section of his finger and handed it over.
"It is just a set of coordinates; must it be so troubleso? Just tell directly..." Li Fan was puzzled until he examined the content within the finger, at which point his words abruptly halted.
"Hiding a mustard seed within Mount Suru... The Immortal Ancestor possesses such ans?" Li Fan's expression showed so astonishnt.
The Tianxuan Mirror clone cautioned: "Follow the size and position strictly, or not only will you fail to find the Du'e Sect's location, but you may even beco lost in the void."
Li Fan firmly morized the content recorded in the finger, then crushed it in one grip.
According to the records within, the Du'e Sect had been shrunk ten thousandfold by the Immortal Ancestor and permanently hidden in the void of the Xuanhuang Realm.
