"Even our clansn, upon dying in the Dark Sea, cannot achieve this."
"It is too light, too light."
After the You Clan leader's explanation, Li Fan instantly understood.
It was still judged by the fluctuations caused while in the Dark Sea.
Mo Rubin's corpse did not conform at all to the normal state of an ordinary being after death.
"Either it is rely an empty shell serving as a smokescreen, or..."
"Or this person was deeply favored by the darkness; upon his death, the vast majority of his spirituality returned to the Dark Sea in an instant. Only the decaying parts remained, slowly dissolving into the darkness." The You Clan leader suddenly ntioned another possibility.
"However, even the most powerful priests in our clan's history did not reach such a state after death. So, I am more inclined to believe what we saw was rely an empty shell."
Upon hearing this, Li Fan's gaze flickered.
He had been sowhat shocked by the You Clan leader's words just now. But if he connected the darkness power here with the Xuantian King, then Mo Rubin's abnormality after death made sense.
"Yet we cannot let our guard down. The Xuantian Sect is profoundly treacherous, with endless erging thods. We must remain vigilant."
"Regardless of whether he truly died or not, my plan will not change in the slightest."
With a thought flashing through his mind, Li Fan inquired further about the details of Mo Rubin's corpse.
The location where Li Fan had seen him not long ago was clearly not here.
Unexpectedly, the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance had found a way to resist the darkness contagion in such a short ti and transferred him here.
"If it were truly just a worthless empty shell, the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance would not go to such lengths to transfer it. In my view, the vortex they stole from the darkness likely relies on Mo Rubin's corpse to achieve stability," Master Qiaogong stated his opinion.
"This power of darkness has so similarities in nature to source power essence. By common sense, with the Dark Sea's imnse scale, if such a venting outlet truly appeared, it would inevitably form an unimaginable energy vortex. But here, it is a bit too calm."
Master Qiaogong spoke with conviction, leaving the You Clan leader montarily stunned.
He observed carefully for a long ti before saying in so surprise: "Lord emmisary, this immortal master is correct! The originally violent power of darkness, after being filtered and influenced by that empty shell, has actually beco stable!"
"Even the darkness can be soothed; exactly what..." The You Clan leader's tone was one of astonishnt and uncertainty.
Hearing this, Li Fan imdiately fell into contemplation.
If the Dark Realm truly had so connection to the Xuantian King, then aside from his forr companions in the Xuantian Sect, what else could draw his particular attention.
It was probably only the statue of the Faceless True Immortal.
But it was not yet certain what kind of upheaval the True Immortal statue would cause if it appeared in the Dark Realm. So, whether to do so or not, Li Fan still needed to consider carefully.
The primary task of this trip was still to take the opportunity to study this mysterious power of darkness. And to probe news of Mo Rubin.
"Can we approach here and secretly open a breach connecting to a small realm?" Li Fan asked. "With the effect of Mo Rubin's corpse, the caused fluctuations should not be too great."
The You Clan leader pondered for a mont and gave an affirmative reply.
"But it is best not to draw too much power of darkness; otherwise, two vortices of equal size might gradually draw closer due to their mutual interaction and form a larger whole."
"Hmm, we only intend to draw a little for research. We will not be too greedy."
With Li Fan making the decision, the group quickly sprang into action.
Under their leader's guidance, the You Clan mbers secretly opened another spatial passage almost right next to the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance's outpost.
This was originally their holand, and with Li Fan and the others each displaying their divine abilities to mask the fluctuations.
The process went quite smoothly from start to finish, without being discovered by the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance.
Of course, this might also be because they had devoted all their attention to guarding that massive vortex.
"It is truly wondrous; the surging Dark Sea has actually beco gentle here." Witnessing this divine scene firsthand, the You Clan leader could not help but let out a sigh of admiration.
And on the other side of the passage, in the underground world.
The shadowy power, once freed from its cage, imdiately reverted to its true nature.
It surged outward at an astonishing speed, engulfing everything around it.
The last traces of light in the underground world soon vanished completely.
Countless living beings died silently, without understanding why.
Fortunately, the scale of this subterranean small realm was not too vast.
After swiftly filling it, the darkness power began to flow back toward the Dark Realm.
Truly like the ebb and flow of tides.
At the entrance connecting the underground world to the Xuanhuang Realm, Li Fan keenly detected the darkness power beginning to seep through.
However, since they had not yet opened the passage, this process was extrely slow.
“If we must pass through here for entry and exit, then it won’t be long before the overflowing darkness power is detected by the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance,” Liu Ruchen said with a furrowed brow.
“I’ll find a way,” Master Qiaogong volunteered. “Source power essence and darkness power are mutually incompatible. Perhaps we can build a buffer zone here. Of course, this may require a large amount of source power essence.”
As the Master Qiaogong spoke, he could not help but glance at Li Fan.
Li Fan felt no attachnt to these remnants of True Immortal power. He had already accumulated a considerable quantity over this period, with no particular use for it.
Still, he pretended to ponder for a long ti before reluctantly agreeing.
Master Qiaogong was overjoyed at this and imdiately set to work, summoning his cherished creation to assist.
A stunningly beautiful female Immortal Puppet, obedient to the Qiaogong in every way.
It employed the sa technology as the Tianyang Immortal Puppet, though it was unclear where Master Qiaogong had obtained the puppet’s conscious personality.
It was during the construction of the “buffer zone” that Qiaogong boasted casually and revealed her origins.
“Back when the [Ancestor] collapsed, I barely survived the calamity by the skin of my teeth and fled my holand. But so fellows were not as fortunate as . Their bodies were destroyed in the disaster, leaving only a backup of their consciousness, which I carried with .”
“Don’t let her current obedience fool you; in the past, she scolded plenty! Hahaha!”
“Back when it was the Heavenly Spirit Sect, I had also prepared a puppet body for her. But it was too rigid; I didn't like it. After playing with it for a short while, I lost interest and destroyed her.”
“How could it compare to this one now: lifelike, almost indistinguishable from a real person.”
