For ordinary cultivators, changing the world is extraordinarily difficult. Even the Longevity Immortal Realm experts of the Xuanhuang Realm could only reverse a small part of the laws of Heaven and Earth.
Therefore, the second major section of the Records of nding Heaven focuses on how to repair deficiencies and strengthen oneself.
It steps beyond the constraints of conventional cultivation systems and approaches the essence of life itself.
It lists hundreds of possible thods to surpass one’s own limits.
The final and largest section of the Records of nding Heaven explains in detail how to "heal Heaven."
If anomalies occur in the operation of the Heavenly Dao, it is similar to a human falling ill, manifesting various "symptoms." Treating the symptoms accurately is the only way to cure the disease.
Strictly speaking, the Records of nding Heaven is not a cultivation technique. It is a summary of the Heavenly Doctor’s (Tianyi) personal cultivation experience, combining thodology with practical insights.
Many of its ideas and ingenious concepts were completely novel to Li Fan.
Moreover, the records of the various anomalies in the Heavenly Dao greatly expanded his horizons.
Li Fan was almost certain that the Heavenly Doctor had visited more than one cultivation world. Without observing the Heavenly Dao of more than a hundred cultivation worlds, it would be impossible to write such a monuntal work.
Li Fan read it with rapt attention, his respect and caution toward the Heavenly Doctor growing further.
Although he temporarily convinced the Heavenly Doctor that he was a descendant of Tian Jue, he knew that Tian Jue himself was erratic, ntally unstable at tis, and extraordinarily elusive, making verification of his claims nearly impossible.
However, for the Heavenly Doctor, it might not have been impossible to forcibly probe Tian Jue’s mind and mories.
Li Fan vividly rembered that, during the confrontation with Tia Jue and the Sage, the Heavenly Doctor, after revealing his true form for just a mont, subdued the insane Tian Jue and even perford a "surgical procedure" on him.
Thus, even after gaining a minor advantage, Li Fan remained cautious.
He tried to forcibly morize as much of the vast Records of nding Heaven as possible. If the Heavenly Doctor discovered the deception and ca looking for him, Li Fan would imdiately return it.
Even if all other plans in this world were wasted, possessing the Records of nding Heaven alone would never be a loss.
This, however, was rely Li Fan’s worst-case plan.
In reality, according to his deductions, with the combined inheritances of the Cloudwater Heavenly Palace and Tian Jue, he could indeed be considered their true successor.
As for how this inheritance ca to him…
For the Heavenly Doctor, it might have been entirely irrelevant. As long as Li Fan did not reveal the matter of [Truth], the Heavenly Doctor would not act against him.
The Records of nding Heaven was profound and obscure. Even with Li Fan’s current knowledge, studying it was extrely demanding.
“In the era of the Tianxuan Spirit Locking, before the advent of the Mysterious Net, there was also a technique called the Records of nding Heaven.”
“At that ti, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance forced cultivators throughout the world to practice it…”
“In the end, it facilitated the ultimate transformation of the Tianxuan Mirror into the Mysterious Net.”
“All of it was about repairing one’s own deficiencies. Now, it seems that these two share common principles. Perhaps there was no real difference between them.”
During the process of reading, Li Fan suddenly recalled his previous reincarnation experiences.
By aligning the Tianxuan Mirror with the Mysterious Net, combining the process of ultimately replacing Heaven with the theories in the [Record of nding Heaven], various insights surged in Li Fan’s mind.
For a mont, he felt overwhelming joy.
Li Fan imrsed himself in study, losing track of how much ti had passed.
When he reached the final section of the Record of nding Heaven, regarding the last ultimate thod of the Heavenly Doctor, his entire body trembled violently, and he instantly regained full clarity.
“This…”
Li Fan’s eyes shone with an unbelievable light, and his body trembled slightly.
He then took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the shock in his heart.
He read this section carefully, over and over, more than ten tis.
It was rely one possible theory proposed by the Heavenly Doctor, and even he had never implented it.
However…
“The Floating Starry Sky Formation, capturing other worlds, Cave-Heavens…”
“The Ancient Great War…”
“Cloudwater Heavenly Palace, Tian Jue…”
“Thousands of years of upheaval in the Xuanhuang Realm…”
The words spoken by Mr. Bai about the Dao during the 115th generation when facing the Immortal Ancestor…
Countless previous clues flashed through Li Fan’s mind, corroborating the contents he was reading.
He involuntarily drew in a sharp breath.
“If this is really the case…”
A trace of alarm passed through his eyes.
At this mont, he no longer had the heart to continue reading the Record of nding Heaven.
If his speculation was correct, then the true power of the Heavenly Doctor…
Even Li Fan, rarely so, felt an urgent desire to verify this theory as soon as possible.
Yet, in the end, he forcibly suppressed it.
“No, I must wait until the next life.”
“Other than the Heavenly Doctor, no one should know the contents of the Record of nding Heaven. If I test it in this life, I will inevitably expose myself!”
“In the next life, everything else can wait. First, I must verify this matter…”
“If it is really so…”
In that instant, the pride Li Fan felt from having deceived the Heavenly Doctor vanished completely.
In its place arose an unprecedented gravity.
Along with this, even the Record of nding Heaven, a record of supre cultivation thods, now seed slightly intimidating.
After much thought, Li Fan finally decided to continue reading it.
“I cannot learn it all.”
“But so of the viewpoints may be borrowed and adapted for my own use.”
“I will extract the essence, integrate it with my own strengths, and develop a Record of nding Heaven that belongs to .”
Thinking this, Li Fan once again imrsed his divine sense in the vast ocean of knowledge within the Record of nding Heaven.
…
At the Heavenly Sword Sect, in the Sword Tomb,
Li Fan’s clone, Li Qing, sat beside the Black Sword, feeding the sword with his own insights in sword Dao.
That day, his spiritual sea suddenly received a vast influx of information.
It all ca from the original Li Fan.
“The Dao of Heaven has a flaw; I shall nd it myself.”
Li Qing pondered over the profound aning of these words, his eyes shining brighter and brighter.
Due to the limits of his own cultivation, Li Qing did not know the origin of this mysterious thod.
Yet judging from its intricacy, it was clearly not the product of his own understanding.
This, Li Qing, who was very familiar with the original body’s talent, could be almost certain of.
“It seems the original must have encountered so extraordinary event…”
Li Qing no longer paid attention to anything else and concentrated on studying this thod.
“I see now…”
“The Way of the Sword is one aspect of the Heavenly Dao. If the Heavenly Dao can have flaws, so too can the Way of the Sword.”
“Thus the uniqueness of the Wooden Sword Heavenly Wonder inherently seeks to complete itself. This Black Sword is one of its instinctive attempts.”
His eyes shimred with excitent.
“The Wooden Sword Heavenly Wonder is already infinitely close to perfection. To take it even further—how could that be easy.”
“However, perhaps I can take another path, starting from another Dao.”
“This is the so-called lesson from another’s strength can improve one’s own.”
With this in mind, while feeding the sword Dao, Li Qing also integrated other insights.
