Chapter 273: Precious Treasure Nourishes the Divine Soul
Chapter 271 – Precious Treasure Mending Divine Soul
The automatic body protection presence of [Returning Truth] was like a heavy boat anchor that steadily fixed Li Fan above the ocean of thoughts.
So that he would not be stirred by the illusion of extreme reality, causing his mind to affect his physical body in turn.
At the same time, Li Fan did not let his guard down.
Deadly staring at the [Returning Truth]’s recharge numbers.
Once the progress fell, Li Fan intended to immediately activate Return the Truth and return to the anchor point.
Just like this, Li Fan, who had made sufficient mental preparations, quietly waited for the next change brought about by Yima.
A scar surfaced faster and faster.
However, Li Fan always stayed true to his heart.
No matter how many wounds appeared on his body, even if he became weaker and weaker because of the extremely heavy injuries.
He all just quietly watched the progress of the recharge in front of him, unmoved.
After a long time, and it seemed that it was because these injuries were unable to intimidate Li Fan.
A new change occurred.
A flame flared up from the corpse of Yi Ma.
At the same time, Li Fan felt the unbearable scorching heat descend upon him.
“Ah ……”
Unable to resist, he let out a low howl.
He even saw his body, slowly turning into ashes in the flames.
“Fake, it’s all fake ……”
Still really charging progress motionless.
It meant that there was no mortal danger at all.
Everything was an extremely real illusion.
Li Fan had a firm conviction in his heart.
The roaring flames kept pulsing.
Li Fan was also suffering and struggling in unspeakable pain.
After an unknown amount of time, the long agony finally slowly subsided.
After the earthly corpse of Yima was completely burned away, the hallucinations that had haunted Li Fan finally disappeared.
Re-measuring himself in the mirror, he had resumed his restored human appearance.
And, Li Fan felt that he seemed to have gotten a bit stronger.
It was not in terms of physical body or cultivation, but in terms of divine soul.
Li Fan carefully realized the changes in himself.
“If one compares divine sense to a person’s muscles, then divine sense can be continuously strengthened through acquired exercise and cultivation.”
“And the divine soul is like a person’s skeleton, which has long been finalized innately. Only special means, such as cultivation breakthrough realms, and the effects of certain heavenly materials and treasures, can strengthen it.”
“Ordinary methods cannot affect it at all.”
“And right now, I feel like my ‘skeleton’ has grown significantly larger.”
This feeling of becoming stronger had not been experienced by Li Fan for a long time.
Even the feeling brought about by raising one small realm in cultivation could not be compared to this.
If one really wanted to compare it, the only way to match it was when one succeeded in drawing qi into the body and building the foundation, this kind of one large realm improvement.
After a few tests, Li Fan realized that although his cultivation had not improved.
But the strength of Divine Sense was affected, and surprisingly, there was an increase of a not-so-small degree.
And it was as if the speed at which one’s thoughts were running had become more fluid.
“The Yima is really a good treasure!”
“Although the way it was realized was a bit bizarre, the effect is really good.”
The fear of it in his heart was certainly nonexistent, and in its place was the inevitable greed.
“The heart is in the right place.”
“That Heart Ape is what cultivators are formed into. If it’s not unexpected, it seems that this will-horse should likewise be formed by a cultivator.”
Recalling the corpse of the intention horse that was exactly like himself just now, a guess suddenly surged up in Li Fan’s heart.
“I have [Returning Truth] to help me cheat, so I was able to survive the process of the Intentional Horse’s action so easily.”
“But if the will is not that strong and really dies ……”
“I’m afraid that the last [Yima], that’s how it died.”
“Then Zhang Zhiliang’s meaning is also obvious.” “It’s both a reward and a test.”
“If you can’t even pass the test of the Yima, it means that you’re simply not qualified to represent Cong Yunhai to go to Tianyu State and inherit his Zhang Zhiliang’s mastery. Death is death.”
“Tsk, after advancing to Transformation God, Zhang Zhiliang’s mindset is really quite different from before.”
“Before, I was only at the Refined Qi cultivation level, and I was able to receive his special care and be granted the [Infinite Method].”
“Now well ……”
Thinking of this, Li Fan couldn’t help but feel some emotion.
He then sent a reporting message to Zhang Zhiliang.
Zhang Zhiliang was also a bit surprised that Li Fan was able to digest the Yima so quickly.
“Hm? It seems that your will is tougher than I thought.”
“Very good! Of the three, you were the first to do it.”
“Be rewarded!”
With that, Zhang Zhiliang sent an object over through the Tianxuan Mirror.
This object was a white glowing square, which was precisely the Formation Coronet that Li Fan had coveted for a long time.
When Li Fan received it, he could not help but be a little surprised.
In a loud voice, he said, “Thank you for your love, Master.”
“This formation corona is yours to give away. There are a total of hundreds of different formations iterated inside, and you can disassemble and study them when you are free.”
“If you can construct a thirty iterative array coronet on your own, you can call yourself a formation master.”
Zhang Zhiliang explained.
“The uplifting effect of the Yima on the divine soul is not just for a moment. For a very long time, it will have a nourishing effect on the divine soul.”
“During this period of time, it’s best for you to dive into your cultivation and not fight with others.”
“Maximize its effects.”
“Hehe, perhaps you can also see that [Yima] was also a cultivator in his lifetime.”
“And the one I gave you was a Jindan cultivator in life.”
“If you can completely absorb its effects, doubling the strength of your divine soul should not be a problem.”
Li Fan didn’t realize that there was such a benefit, and hurriedly expressed his gratitude to Zhang Zhiliang once again.
Zhang Zhiliang’s side, however, hung up the communication and did not reply again.
“Jindan cultivator ……”
“Once they fall, it’s hard to escape the fate of becoming someone else’s ration.” Li Fan secretly shook his head.
Li Fan then suddenly remembered the human-faced smiling fruit that he had seen on Tai’an Island.
“At that time, the smiling face fruit seemed to affect only the mortal islands. If a cultivator was turned into a smiling face fruit, then would there be a fruit with stronger utility?”
“Again both are people transformed into beneficial foreign objects, the Smiling Fruit, the Heart Ape, and the Intentional Horse ……”
“I wonder if there is any correlation.”
Li Fan always felt in his heart that there seemed to be some secret hidden here, giving him a strange feeling.
Out of place.
Yet it was somewhat familiar.
After thinking for a while, the blue crystals in his mind continued to shine brightly, and past experiences surfaced in his mind scene by scene.
Li Fan finally realized where this sense of familiarity came from.
“Sect relics, weird?”
Li Fan pondered for a moment, somewhat unsure.
However, this was contrary to the current cultivation rules, completely irrational, seemingly self-contained laws that were one and the same.
“It is said that weirdness only exists in the relics of sects.”
“If the two are truly connected, what does it mean?”
Li Fan, however, was again reminded of the time when he was after the Fuzi Green Ox pulled the cart.
Heading to Tianji Hall to be investigated.
In front of that giant map of the Cong Yun Sea, that sickly cultivator had said.
“One more case?”
Li Fan vaguely guessed something.
