Chapter 1109: An Old Friend Becomes an Immortal Puppet

Chapter 1100 – Old Man as Immortal Puppet
“Even our clansmen, who died in the Sea of Darkness, couldn’t do this.”

“It’s too light, too light.”

The leader of the Psi Clan gave a flurry of explanations, and Li Fan suddenly understood.

It was still judged by the fluctuations caused by being in the Sea of Psi.

That corpse of Mo Ru Bin’s was completely inconsistent with the normal behavior of an unusual being after death.

“Either it’s just an empty shell acting as a barrier, or ……”

“It’s that this person was deeply favored by the darkness, and the vast majority of the spirituality in his body returned to the Sea of Darkness in an instant after his death. Only the decayed part remains, slowly dissolving into the Psi Darkness.” The leader of the Spectre Clan suddenly uttered another possibility.

“However, even the most powerful sacrifices in our clan’s history were far from being in a state like his after death. So, I’m more inclined that what we’re seeing is just an empty shell.”

Li Fan’s eyes flickered as he sniffed.

Just now, when he heard the words of this Phantom Race leader, he could not help but be horrified in his heart. However, if he linked the power of the spectral darkness of this place with the Xuan Heavenly King, then the strange appearance after Mo Ru Bin’s death would make sense.

“Yet, we can’t take this lightly. The Xuan Heavenly Cult is treacherous and extraordinary, with all sorts of tricks coming out of the woodwork. Careful defense is still needed.”

“Regardless of whether he is dead or not, my plans will not be altered in any way due to this.”

With a flash of thoughts in his mind, Li Fan inquired about the details of Mo Ru Bin’s corpse.

The location where Li Fan had seen him not long ago was obviously not here.

He did not expect that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance would actually find a method that could resist the Spectral Darkness Contagion in such a short period of time and move him here.

“If it really was just a worthless empty shell, the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance wouldn’t have gone to such great lengths to make the transfer. In my opinion, I’m afraid that the vortex that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance stole the Spectral Darkness from is relying on Mo Ru Bin’s corpse in order to achieve stability.” The skillful craftsman spoke out his own insights.

“This power of spectral darkness is somewhat similar to the nature of source power essence. According to common sense, the Sea of Spectral Darkness is so massive that if such a small venting opening really appeared, it would definitely form an unimaginable vortex of energy. But here, it’s also a little too calm.”

The leader of the Specter Race froze as the Crafting Dweller’s words were so strong.

He observed carefully for a long time more before he said with some astonishment, “Your Highness, this Immortal Master is right! The originally supposedly raging spectral darkness power has actually become stabilized after the filtering influence of that empty shell!”

“Even the spectral darkness can be soothed, just …… what exactly,” the leader of the Psi Clan said in a stunned and astonished tone.

Li Fan immediately fell into deep thought at his words.

If the Spectral Realm really had something to do with the Xuan Heavenly King, then the ones that could draw his special attention were out of the former Xuan Heavenly Sect’s companions.

I’m afraid that the statue of the Faceless True Immortal would be left.

However, it was still uncertain just how much of a ripple the True Immortal statue would cause if it appeared in the Psi Realm. So whether or not to do so, Li Fan still needed to carefully consider it again.

The main task of this trip was to take the opportunity to study the mysterious power of the darkness. As well as prying into Mo Ru Bin’s news.

“Can we just get close to here and secretly open a gap that connects to the small world?” Li Fan asked, “With the effect of Mo Ru Bin’s corpse, the fluctuations caused shouldn’t be too big.”

The leader of the Phantom Race pondered for a moment and gave an affirmative reply.

“But it’s best not to attract too much Psi-Darkness power, or else two vortices of equal size will most likely gradually come closer and form a large whole due to their interactions with each other.”

“Well, we’re just drawing a little for research. It won’t be too greedy.”

With Li Fan taking the shot, the group soon took immediate action.

Led by their leader, the Yu Clan secretly opened another spatial passageway almost right against the stronghold of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance. This was originally their hometown, plus Li Fan and the others had each displayed their magical abilities to conceal the fluctuations.

So it went on quite smoothly and was not discovered by the people of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance from start to finish.

Of course, this might also have been due to the fact that they had focused all of their spirit on guarding that huge vortex.

“Truly marvelous, the raging sea of darkness has actually become moderated here.” Personally witnessing this divine scene, the leader of the Psi Clan couldn’t help but let out a burst of admiration.

And at the other end of the passage, in the underground world.

As soon as the Spectral Darkness Force left from the cage, it restored its original proper nature.

At an appalling speed, it quickly surged towards the surroundings and engulfed everything.

The last light of the underground world soon disappeared completely.

Countless living beings, just like this, died silently and unexplainedly.

Fortunately, the size of this small underground world wasn’t too large.

After quickly filling it up, the power of the darkness began to flow back towards the Spectral Realm in turn.

It was truly like the ebb and flow of a tidal wave.

While at the entrance of the underground world linked to the Xuan Huang Realm, Li Fan was keenly aware of the spectral darkness beginning to infiltrate.

It was only that they hadn’t opened the passageway yet, so the process was extremely slow.

“If we have to pass through here for both entering and exiting, then I’m afraid that it won’t be long before the overflowing spectral darkness will be detected by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.” Liu Rudun said with a frown.

“I’ll figure it out.” The skillful craftsman volunteered, “Source power essence and the power of the spectral darkness do not mix with each other. Perhaps we can build a buffer zone here. Of course, this might require a large amount of Source Force Essence.”

As the skillful craftsman said this, he could not help but look at Li Fan.

With regards to this remnant of True Immortal power, Li Fan was not at all moved. It had already accumulated a considerable amount over this period of time and was not particularly useful.

Still, he pretended to think about it for a long time before reluctantly agreeing.

Seeing this, the skillful craftsman was overjoyed and immediately sprang into action, and summoned his beloved creations to help along.

A female Immortal Puppet with a stunningly beautiful face was obedient to Qiao Gong.

It used the same technique as the Tian Yang Immortal Puppet, that is, it was unknown where the immortal puppet’s conscious personality, Qiao Gong had found it.

Or when the skillful craftsman was building the “buffer zone”, he himself bragged and told her origin in passing.

“Back then, when [Ancestor] collapsed, I had to fight to the death to survive the calamity and escape from my hometown. But there are some guys that weren’t as lucky as me. Bodies were destroyed in the calamity, and only the backup of their consciousness was preserved and carried with me.”

“Don’t look at her being so obedient now, but she didn’t reprimand me much before! Hahaha!”

“In the past, when the Celestial Spirit Sect was in place, I had also prepared a puppet body for her. But it was too rigid for my liking. After playing with it for not long, I lost interest and destroyed her.”

“Which is like this one now, living and breathing, almost indistinguishable from a real person.”
