Chapter 184: The White Jade Heart-searching Platform
Chapter 183 – White Jade Heart-Inquiring Platform
Carrying the jade token given by Zhang Zhiliang on his body, the light of that Seven-Colored Falling Immortal Formation merely swept past without creating any sense of threat.
The Hall of Government and the Council Hall were the two most conspicuous tall buildings in the core area of Ten Thousand Immortal Island.
Li Fan followed the path and quickly arrived at the outside of the Hall of Government.
A Qi Refining Cultivator wearing a black and yellow Taoist robe was standing at the entrance.
Seeing Li Fan coming at this time, he scanned a glance and then asked somewhat politely, “Fellow Daoist, are you here for the purpose of registering for a position in the Ceremonial Array Hall?”
Li Fan nodded.
“Alright, follow me.”
Li Fan followed this person and traveled all the way inside to a small room deep inside the Buzheng Hall.
After walking in, he realized that there was another world.
The lead cultivator left on his own, and Li Fan was left alone to observe the space.
Countless rows of tall red wooden cabinets were placed side by side on the ground.
The number of wooden cabinets was extremely high.
Boundless and boundless, looking violently, one could not even see the head.
An old man with white hair just stood silently in front of these red wooden cabinets.
Li Fan looked at him and wondered if it was some sort of illusion.
He felt that this old man, it seemed, was not in stasis.
Rather, it was as if he had countless doppelgangers that were busy in front of these red wooden cabinets.
Li Fan raised his head again to carefully survey the space.
The surroundings were white, and other than the red wooden cabinets and the white-haired old man, there were no other decorations.
The monotony was a little scary.
“Here, it seems that just like the Tianxuan Mirror, it is also a space shared by each of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance’s residences?” Li Fan secretly guessed in his heart.
However, he did not slow down and handed the jade token in his hand to the old man.
The old man received the jade token and glanced at Li Fan.
Coughing lightly, he said unhurriedly, “Although you are following Zhang Zhiliang’s path, but if you want to formally join the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, you still need to go through the process that you should go through.”
The old man pointed towards the blank area in front of him, and immediately the ground rumbled with a four-square white high platform.
The entire body was made of white jade, emitting a glistening luster.
“This is the Questioning Platform. In order to avoid spies from the Five Elders’ Association from mixing into the alliance, before joining, one must pass the test of the Questioning Heart Platform.”
“You stand on it!”
The old man commanded, not giving Li Fan a chance to refuse.
Li Fan’s heart was flabbergasted, and he raised his spirit at once, ready to return true and run at any time if anything went wrong.
After flying and standing on the white jade questioning platform, a miniature projection of Li Fan instantly surfaced around him.
It also included some basic information about him within the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
“Besides the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, have you ever joined any other immortal cultivation organizations?”
After glancing at Li Fan’s information, the white-haired old man asked out loud.
“No.” Li Fan answered very quickly.
Everything was as usual on the white jade platform, no abnormalities arose.
The white-haired old man nodded and then asked, “Do you have any involvement with the Five Elders Association?”
“No.”
“Are you harboring ill intentions towards the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance?”
“No.”
“Do you still have any living relatives?”
“All mortal, no longer attached.”
……
Time passed in a question and answer.
Luckily, they were all basic questions about stances, and didn’t involve any private questions about the feats and aptitudes cultivated by cultivators or anything like that.
Li Fan answered them one by one with ease.
“Last question.” The old man coughed lightly.
“What did you join the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance for?”
Li Fan paused and slowly replied, “Eternal life.” The white-haired old man’s gaze flickered slightly.
The Questioning Table quietly disappeared into thin air.
“You’ve successfully passed the Heart Asking Test, from today onwards, you’re an official member of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.”
The old man clapped his hands, and in front of him, a miniature silhouette image of Li Fan slowly appeared.
Next to the image, there were quite a few words, as well as an image of Li Fan’s heart asking process this time.
Afterwards, a red wooden cabinet in the distance was like a phantom that flew through the heavy wooden cabinet barrier and flew in front of the white-haired old man.
One of the cabinet doors opened on its own.
The old man pressed his hands in vain and compressed the image data in front of him, forming a layer of glowing white paper.
Gently placing the piece of paper into the cabinet.
The cabinet door then closed, and the wooden cabinet returned to its original position in an instant, disappearing from Li Fan’s field of vision.
“You and go!”
The white-haired old man said to Li Fan, and then resumed his previous motionless state.
Li Fan made a bow and quietly retreated.
After exiting this pale space, Li Fan was at the entrance of the Buzheng Hall and met the cultivator who had led the way before again.
He glanced at Li Fan and arched his hand, “Congratulations to fellow Daoist for officially joining!”
“Oh? I wonder how you can tell?” Li Fan returned the bow and asked politely.
“Hehe, because after going up to the Inquiring Mind Stage, apart from successful initiation, it’s death. There is no other possibility. Since daoyou is alive and well, the result is naturally self-evident.” The lead cultivator replied with a smile.
“I have been taught. I am Li Fan.” With that, Li Fan handed over a communication spirit talisman.
“My name is Gao Yuan.” Receiving Li Fan’s spirit talisman, Gao Yuan became more and more polite.
Li Fan exchanged a few more pleasantries with him before returning to the Heavenly Xuan Mirror.
As soon as he entered, he received a prompt.
“Cultivator Li Fan, welcome to officially join the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.”
“Your current position: a Cong Yunhai Formation Repairer.”
“Duties: assist Zhang Zhiliang of the Ten Thousand Immortals Island’s Formation Hall to repair the island-protecting formations within the confines of the Cong Yun Sea.”
“Fixed compensation: 1500 contribution points per year. Each time you participate in the repair, you will receive an additional 200-2000 contribution points depending on the amount of participation.”
“Minimum duty requirement: participate in at least three large array repairs every ten years.”
“Tip: If you do not fulfill the minimum duty requirement for the first time, you will be warned. If there is a second time, you will be forcibly stripped of your position as a formation repairer. And you will not be allowed to re-enter the position for one hundred years.”
“Please pay attention to your duties.”
“You can now increase your authority within the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance by accumulating merits.”
“The higher the permissions, the more items and techniques that can be viewed and exchanged.”
“Your current permission level: diffraction one.”
“Completing a Merit Quest will allow you to gain Merit.”
“Merits can be categorized according to size, from top to bottom, into six levels: heaven, earth, A, B, C, and D.”
“Each rank, in turn, is divided into upper, middle, and lower.”
……
In addition to the various newly appeared hints.
Li Fan also received several items at the same time.
One of them was the black and yellow dao robe that was common within the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance’s system.
The dao robe had a simple protective effect and was able to effectively withstand the attacks of the middle stage of Foundation Establishment.
For Li Fan, it was naturally better than nothing.
After the dao robe was damaged, if a new one was needed, one would also have to spend contribution degrees and purchase it on their own in the Tianxuan Mirror.
The other thing was the identity jade disk.
It was different from simply joining the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance to work part-time.
Without joining the system, even if you were killed outside, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance would not care about you.
But if you have this identity jade disk, and then accidentally die.
The Tianji Hall would then be responsible for the investigation.
Then based on the specific results of the investigation, discretion will be used to decide whether or not to carry out a revenge strike.
