“Actually...”
Ji Hongdao hesitated for a mont before transmitting his voice: “I only heard this by chance and do not know if it is true or false. Brother Sun, just take it as entertainnt. However, it is best not to spread this matter.”
After making sufficient disclairs, he then spoke solemnly: “Actually, among the five Heavenly Sovereigns of the Five Elders Association, two were originally from our Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance.”
“But for so unknown reason...” Ji Hongdao shrugged his shoulders.
Sun Luyuan was hearing this rumor for the first ti and was instantly shocked beyond words.
He wanted to ask more, but seeing the other make a gesture, he wisely stopped.
Thus he did not bring it up again.
After all, this matter was truly too unbelievable.
Lost in wild thoughts, the two had already quietly returned to the Sun family.
“This trip was in vain. The problem of your younger brother being possessed by that mirror has not been resolved. What do you plan to do?” Ji Hongdao asked.
“We will take it one step at a ti.” Sun Luyuan said sowhat helplessly.
“However, Brother Ji, you also said that the formations in that ruin are quite old. This ans my previous guess was likely wrong. After the calamity erupts in the Boundless Mirror, it may subside for a long ti. At least for now, my younger brother is safe in the short term.”
Ji Hongdao nodded upon hearing this: “I still have official duties to attend to, so I will take my leave first. If anything cos up, contact anyti.”
“Thank you, Brother Ji!” Sun Luyuan said gratefully.
“Eh, no need to be polite.” Ji Hongdao waved his hand.
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, he transford into a streak of escape light and departed.
The expression on Sun Luyuan’s face gradually cald.
In truth, the reason he had stopped Ji Hongdao from reporting the discovery of the Grand Mage’s remains, besides the earlier excuses, was his own plan.
“If the news of the Immortal Alliance discovering the Grand Mage’s remains can truly spark a war between both sides...”
Dangerous light flashed in Sun Luyuan’s eyes.
“Perhaps this is an opportunity.”
“In the Boundless Mirror’s deductions, even that Holy Dynasty of Great Qi could fight the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance at its peak to a standstill. If they encountered one that had just finished a great war with heavy losses...”
Sun Luyuan absolutely could not imagine that he had actually thought of the sa thing as soone else.
After the initial shock had subsided, this exact sche had appeared in Li Fan’s mind.
However, after careful consideration, he had still abandoned the idea of using the Grand Mage’s remains as a chess piece.
Drawing this Half-immortal into the ga carried far too high a risk.
And to achieve the sa effect, Li Fan still held many other substitutes.
For example, the matter of Eastern Extremity being refined into a puppet.
Or fabricating that the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance was still hiding a Rebirth Heavenly Sovereign who was about to prove the Dao.
As long as Li Fan wished, he could stir up a great war in the Xuanhuang Realm at any ti.
However...
Recalling the rumor Ji Hongdao had ntioned earlier on the Dust-Crossing Boat, Li Fan frowned slightly.
“Two of the Five Elders Association’s five Heavenly Sovereigns were originally mbers of the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance?”
“Yet they stood on the opposing side of the Immortal Alliance...”
“Could it be because of the Eastern Extremity matter, the rabbit dies and the fox grieves?”
“Or was it because they learned of the Immortal Ancestor dissecting and dividing the Xuanhuang Realm?”
For such matters, the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance naturally wanted to cover them up by every ans possible.
Apart from those who personally experienced it back then, finding any related written records would be extrely difficult.
After all, even after so many reincarnations, Li Fan had known nothing about it.
But fortunately, now that he knew, investigating would be much easier.
While Li Fan was pondering, Sun Luyuan and Sun Luyao’s conversation had already ended.
“Little brother, is this thod truly effective?”
“Brother, rest assured, it is more than likely. This idea naturally surfaced in my mind after seeing the Grand Mage of Heavenly Capital. It seems the Boundless Mirror has so connection with the Grand Mage.” Sun Luyao said confidently.
“Alright, I will think of a way. But these You Clan people—I have never heard of them before. They are probably an absolute secret of the Immortal Alliance. It will not be easy to obtain so.” Sun Luyuan frowned tightly.
“Brother, do not worry. I should be able to hold on a little longer.” Sun Luyao smiled and comforted him.
Sun Luyuan let out a soft sigh and directly left the secret chamber.
Indeed, the solution Li Fan had provided to resolve the Boundless Mirror’s obliterating wind drew its inspiration from the earlier guess.
Diverting disaster eastward!
Using an immortal artifact, or sothing close to one, to draw out the hidden calamity within the Boundless Mirror.
Li Fan guessed that the obliterating calamity had transferred and spread from the Grand Mage of Heavenly Capital to the Boundless Mirror. This likely indicated that it was particularly sensitive toward existences at the immortal level.
Perhaps as soon as it sensed the aura, it would actively launch an attack.
At that ti, most of its power could be drawn out.
Li Fan naturally could not use a true half-immortal artifact as bait, but creating so props that could possess an immortal aura was still feasible.
It relied on the refined source power essence provided by the You Clan people.
“With golden source power essence, supplented by the Boundless Primal Chaos Reveals in Form formation—which is nearly immortal-grade, it should be possible to create a half-immortal artifact.”
“Even if it is only an empty shell on the surface, it will suffice.”
“Even if it fails, it is no matter. Consider it a test.”
Aside from the branch captured by the Holy Dynasty of Great Qi, the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance still controlled a large number of You Clan people.
As long as he thought of a way, relying on the Sun family’s status and connections, he should be able to obtain so.
However, what truly worried Li Fan now was the situation inside the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance headquarters.
Ever since receiving the ssage from the Immortal Ancestor ordering sixteen Dao Integration cultivators to leave for the Xuanhuang Realm, the Immortal Alliance headquarters had remained in a closed state.
It was clearly brewing sothing.
“With the foundation of the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance, accelerating the growth of sixteen Dao Integration cultivators would be effortless.”
“There is no need to keep it closed for such a long ti.”
“The only thing I can think of that deserves such cautious treatnt and fear of leakage...”
“Is a thod to escape the Immortal Ruins and leave the Xuanhuang Realm!”
A sharp light flashed in Li Fan’s eyes.
The reason the various forces in the Xuanhuang Realm were now obediently lying low was largely due to the existence of the Immortal Ruins.
There was no way to escape.
If, without knowing about the High Wall, they learned of a safe way to leave the Xuanhuang Realm.
A great many would undoubtedly do so.
Without hesitation.
Just as had happened in the Xuanhuang Realm thousands of years ago.
When disaster strikes, each flies their own way!
“Even the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance itself must weigh whether anyone within the alliance would seize the chance to flee.”
“After all, they cannot truly publicize the existence of the High Wall. Otherwise, the world would surely fall into chaos.”
Thinking this, Li Fan once again activated the Boundless Mirror to spy upon the Tianxuan Mirror.
He had originally thought it would be fruitless as before.
Unexpectedly this ti, he actually found so faint clues.
“Acquire Voidbright Flow Crystals imdiately. Do not make a big fuss. Use covert thods. Once obtained, destroy them.”
“Voidbright Flow Crystals.”
...
Three or four such ssages spread from the Immortal Alliance headquarters through the Tianxuan Mirror.
