Chapter 392: A Mirage of Time
Chapter 390 – Time Deposit Mirage
Although I don’t know why at the moment when the five elements returned to one, the mirage of the ancient past would appear here.
And only one could see it.
However, Li Fan thought that the words of the master and disciple of this Duoyue Sect should not be delusional.
“This Five Elements Great Cave Heaven will suddenly have all five elements returned to one, and it is also due to the transition of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance to exploit the resources of a certain attribute cave heaven?”
Li Fan’s thoughts turned rapidly, and after a moment of contemplation, he decided that he could not just sit back and wait for death.
If he really waited for the big explosion to happen, it might not be safe on this Dust Ferry Boat.
Li Fan hurriedly contacted Qi Bu Yi using the Supervisory Heaven Record and told her about the bizarre scene he had just seen.
To his surprise, Qi Bu Yi who had gotten the news was not the least bit flustered.
“Oh oh, so it’s a [Time Mirage] ah! Fellow Daoist is lucky ……”
“Huh? I remember you only have Jindan cultivation, right? Can you sense it too?”
“It seems like it should be due to the fact that fellow Daoist’s divine soul is tough and far superior to normal people.”
After some explanation, Li Fan then understood what this so-called [Time Mirage] was all about.
It was just like how the [Mortal Transformation Wall] in the Heavenly Fortune Prefecture had once left behind the scene of Mr. Bai’s mortal transformation into a god and a step to heaven.
When specific conditions were met, it would happen that the scene would be recorded in this world, and then it would keep recurring at a special point in time.
And when the five elements return to one, and something returns to nothing, the phenomenon of the [Time Mirage] is very likely to occur.
A number of years ago, when the Five Elements Cavern was returning to one, a pair of masters and disciples from the Duo’er Sect passed by.
The master explained for his disciple.
This scene happened to be recorded by the [Time Mirage].
Now that countless rounds of reincarnation have passed, the return of the five elements to unity has occurred once again.
The scene of the master solving his disciple’s puzzles reappeared and was sensed by Li Fan, whose divine soul was strong due to his practice of the Xuan Huang Refining Heart Mantra.
……
Although Chi Bu Yi explained the origin of that vision for Li Fan in a single speech.
However, it didn’t put him completely at ease.
Li Fan frowned and asked, “Senior Chi, is the big bang mentioned in this mirage really going to happen?”
“Should we do something to defend ourselves?”
Chi Bu Yi replied with a smile, “Don’t worry, it’s just a small scene. When we first learned of the signs of the five elements returning to one, we predicted all sorts of possibilities. Including this big explosion, it’s all in the plan.”
“Fellow Daoist, just watch at ease.”
“Furthermore, as of today, the Xuan Spirit Locking Formation has almost been constructed. Why bother adding to the snake and making any more defensive measures?”
There was no response from Chi Bu Yi’s side, but the meaning of her words caused Li Fan to fall into deep thought.
“Tian Xuan Spirit Locking is enough to ignore the big explosion caused by the imbalance of the five elements?”
A trace of doubt flashed through Li Fan’s mind.
As Zhang Zhiliang had said back then, even if Li Fan and the rest of them, the builders of the Spirit Locking Formation.
They might not be able to know the true power of the [Tianxuan Spirit Locking Formation] either.
Perhaps, in today’s Xuan Huang Realm, there were only a handful of people who knew exactly how powerful a fully activated Spirit Locking Formation would erupt.
“It’s just as well that we can use this opportunity to see in advance what kind of divine abilities our creation, which we have labored for several years, will have.”
Li Fan was still skeptical as to whether an apparent “monitoring” formation would be able to withstand a big explosion that would return everything to chaos.
However, since Qi Bu Yi had said so, it meant that she was by no means aimless.
The existence of the [Eternal Tribulation Essence Gold] that was used to protect the formation also showed that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance had indeed prepared for it.
So Li Fan stood at the side of the Dust Crossing Boat and quietly looked down below, waiting for the five elements to return to unity.
The five elements of the cavern, which looked like a mixture of pigments, became more and more disorganized.
The loud roaring and collision sounds even pierced through the heavy spatial barrier and reached the Dust Ferry Boat.
The branches of the inverted giant tree grew savagely, spreading all over the azure sea.
The roaring flames burned out, and green wood was born from the ashes.
……
Strange scenes that were completely contrary to the present world were constantly being staged in the Five Elements Cave Heaven that was nearing its end.
As time passed, the five attribute cave heavens combined more and more closely.
In the root-strewn sea, golden stones towered, twisted, and melted into scorched earth.
Immediately, another flame was born from the wasteland, and wood and water met.
Slowly, as the process of returning the five elements to one intensified. These grotesque sights also ceased to exist.
It was purely just mottled five attribute auras that were mixing and intermingling.
Dyeing the cavernous sky below into an abstract and incomparable painting.
Li Fan concentrated his mind and stared tightly at the cave sky that was about to fall silent.
The various colors were getting fainter and fainter.
The unseen pitch blackness was like a ferocious beast devouring the remaining colors.
Faster and faster.
However, after the Five Elements Great Cave Heaven Region was completely turned into nothingness.
Yet, there were still many unspeakable colors as if they still existed.
Thus, these overall gray-looking existences proliferated violently.
It was like a huge whirlpool that kept stirring, as the surrounding black color continued to absorb and join.
The area below, at this point, looked like a rapidly expanding dye tray.
Li Fan, who was staring at it, also felt a moment of dizziness.
He forced himself, however, not to avert his eyes.
There was some sensibility in his heart, and observing this big explosion of the five elements being out of balance might be of great benefit to him.
At this moment, the abnormality in the void below also caught the attention of the rest of the cultivators.
While calling out their friends to watch, they did not look worried.
It was clear that they were extremely confident in the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
The variegated dye disk spun faster and faster, and finally, at some point, it reached its limit.
An extremely dangerous aura suddenly erupted from below.
Li Fan subconsciously took a step back.
It was like the light of creation, illuminating the dark void.
Extreme whiteness was born on this, carrying the power of destroying the heavens and the earth, about to sweep everything in the surroundings.
Just at this time ……
Beyond the void, a flash of green aura appeared.
Subsequently, along the vein nodes of the, Heavenly Xuan Spirit Locking Formation that Li Fan and the others had constructed.
It extended at a rapid speed.
The speed was several times faster than the white light caused by the explosion.
In a matter of moments, one crisscrossing thin cyan line after another formed a huge network, completely enveloping the explosion range.
And then, before the cultivators could react.
Countless green threads were ejected from the main vein.
Endless and continuous.
In an instant, the dazzling white aura had disappeared.
In its place, what appeared before the eyes of the cultivators was a huge light cocoon shrouded in green aura.
With a wriggle, the light cocoon suddenly shrunk by a few points.
And the green color on the main vein of the Tianxuan Spirit Locking Formation shone brighter and brighter.
It was like a leaping heart that transmitted blood continuously.
Amidst the dumbfounded stares of the onlooker cultivators, the cyan colored light cocoon grew smaller and smaller.
It eventually disappeared.
On the other hand, the Heavenly Xuan Spirit Locking Formation, which had easily resolved the Five Elements Imbalance Big Bang, was in the dark void, blooming its own cyan light to its fullest.
“Is this the power of the Heavenly Xuan Spirit Locking.”
Li Fan was also somewhat dumbfounded.
He was very sure of it.
Even in the Ancient Immortal Cultivation World where Harmonization powerhouses were everywhere, it would never be possible to solve such a terrifying explosion so easily.
But today’s Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, with the Tianxuan Spirit Locking Formation, had easily done this matter.
Suddenly, a chill surged in Li Fan’s heart.
The defense was already like this.
Tian Xuan Spirit Locking, was there really no means of attack?
