Chapter 571: Great and Formless

Chapter 567 – Great and Formless

Although Li Fan actually didn’t know what the [Xuan Tian Spirit Sealing Formation] the other party was talking about.

However, it was not difficult to guess that the thing he was referring to in his mouth should be the Xuan Net that had made its first appearance on the battlefield of Tian Ling Zhou.

Li Fan did not move, but only spoke out to test the waters, “According to our predictions, even if the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance has the help of the [Xuan Heaven Sealing Spirit Formation], the Five Elders Association would not be able to lose every step of the way and show their decadence.”

The other party sighed, “This time, it was indeed our miscalculation. No one expected that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance would actually reproduce this ancient spell formation so quickly.”

“And, it seems to be a little more overbearing than what was recorded.”

The Five Elders Association cultivator sounded somewhat helpless, “Our Five Elders Association’s countermeasures have not yet been fully prepared. That’s why the situation was a bit of a dilemma for a while on the Heavenly Spirit State battlefield.”

“That’s why we are in dire need of means to weaken the opponent’s formations.”

Li Fan did not reply, but instead tapped his fingers on the desktop very rhythmically, as if he was seriously thinking.

“Even with our strength, if we want to get the formation diagram of the [Xuan Heaven Sealing Spirit Formation], we must pay a great price. Even certain Daoists who have already penetrated inside the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance would have to pay with their lives for this.”

“Moreover, success is not necessarily guaranteed ……”

Only after a long time did Li Fan open his mouth, looking very hesitant.

Seeing that there seemed to be a chance, the Five Elders Association cultivator hurriedly struck the iron while it was hot: “Don’t worry, Fellow Daoist Zhou, as long as we can get the formation diagrams, everything is negotiable!”

Li Fan was noncommittal.

After pondering for a moment, he said in a deep voice, “The matter is of great importance, and I can’t make a decision without authorization. How about this, three days later, I will come back here and give you an answer.”

Although the Five Elders Association cultivator was anxious in his heart, he knew that the other party had a point and could only nod helplessly.

“Right, next time we meet, change the place. It’s better to be careful in an eventful time.” With that, he informed Li Fan of the location of another island.

Li Fan arched his hand and flew away, returning to Cong Yun Immortal City.

“Tian Xuan Spirit Locking, Xuan Heaven Sealing Spirit.”

“Ancient, Heavenly Xuan Mirror ……”

“Is the Xuan Heaven Sect?”

In the secret room, Li Fan’s gaze flickered as he fell into deep thought.

“That image of thousands of cultivators, falling from the sky to the ground in a matter of moments, seems a bit familiar ……”

“That’s right, the Nine Mountain State!”

The nine mountain ranges that stretched across the territory of the Nine Mountain State also had the characteristic that cultivators couldn’t leap.

In his previous life, when Li Fan traveled far to purchase from the Ten Thousand Laws Chamber of Commerce in the Nine Mountain State, he had seen several unbelieving cultivators who fell to their deaths alive in a tragic manner.

“Can’t it be that there could be some connection in this as well?”

Li Fan then recalled all the information he had read in the past in his mind.

Suddenly, some information that had once been ignored caught Li Fan’s attention.

It was rumored that the nine great mountains in the Nine Mountain State were transformed from the meridians in the body of a foreign beast after its death in the ancient times.

The nine mountains were named: Heavenly Long, Heavenly Short, Heavenly Void, Heavenly Urge, Heavenly Knot, Heavenly Generation, Heavenly Prison, Heavenly Movement, and Heavenly Fine.

The nine mountains are clearly divided into real and hidden formations. This led to the spatial instability of the Nine Mountain State, and even the teleportation spell formations could not be used.

……

These were all information that Li Fan already knew before.

At that time, in Li Fan’s mind, he had no actual concept of the image of a demonic beast.

He only felt that such a thing as a demonic beast dying and having its internal meridians transformed into a large mountain was very much in line with the temperament of the ancient legends, and there was nothing special about it.

However, in the Meteoric Immortal Realm, he personally went to the demonic beast holy land of South Underworld Mountain, and saw many demonic beasts that had a fierce reputation in the ancient times.

Only then did Li Fan realize that there was something wrong with this myth.

There is nothing else.

If the myth was true, then the size of this foreign beast was too big.

The land of the Nine Mountains and One State had taken Li Fan a full half a year to travel back and forth in the first place.

Inside the body meridians can be stretched the size of a state, this beast in life, in the end, what will be such a huge existence?
In comparison, the Red Nine Heads, the Purple Headless, and the Green Divine Dragon …… I am afraid that all of them are just like ants.

Although size may not be positively correlated with strength, but to say that this foreign beast with nine mountains in its body is weak ……

Li Fan definitely would not think so.

“Perhaps, from this unknown foreign beast, the origin of this so-called [Xuan Heaven Sealing Spirit Formation] can be verified.”

Even from the name, Li Fan was already almost certain that this formation was unrelated to the Ancient Xuan Tian Sect.

However, nothing was absolute, and it was also possible that it was just a mere coincidence.

There was nothing wrong with being a little more rigorous.

So Li Fan searched for relevant information in the Tian Xuan Mirror with the keyword “Beast of the Nine Mountain States”.

It was too far back in time to be verified.

There were many different opinions and no definite answer.

Li Fan had gone through them one by one and didn’t seem to be able to find a reliable one.

Just when he was helpless and ready to give up, a painting titled “Dream Meets Ancient Beast Diagram” caught Li Fan’s attention.

This painting was not made by a present day person, but was the casual writing of a disciple of the Divine Brush Sect in the past.

After the Divine Brush Sect was annexed by the Point Drawing Sect, the items within the sect were scattered in all directions.

This painting was accidentally obtained by a loose cultivator. The monk had fallen in the Great Earth and Heaven Calamity, and the items he carried in his storage ring had been looted.

Only those things that didn’t seem to have the slightest value and took up too much space on his body were left behind, lying quietly in place.

The storage rings that had no value were discarded and thrown to the side of the road.

Dusty for thousands of years, it was again discovered by a passing cultivator.

According to the cultivator named Tang Bowen, it was by relying on a strand of grievances in the storage ring that had not dissipated for thousands of years that he had learned about the past events of that year.

Of course, these sayings were most likely fabricated by Tang Bowen in order to inflate the price of the Dream Encountering Ancient Beasts Map.

But no matter what, the painting did come from thousands of years ago.

It depicted hundreds of demonic beasts in various forms, many of which Li Fan had once seen in the Realm of the Fallen Immortals.

What attracted Li Fan to this painting was that apart from these demonic beasts in plain sight.

There was also another beast concealed in the painting.

At the very edge part of the picture of the foreign beast, it could be vaguely seen that these hundreds of demonic beasts all seemed to be standing on the body of some huge being.

However, precisely because their size was too enormous, it was impossible to draw them at all.

It could only use these hundreds of demonic beasts on its back as a foil.

“Great and formless, its name is Heaven.”

In the corner, there was also this sentence left behind.

This leave-behind style of creation naturally attracted many cultivators to comment.

There were those who were well-informed, and they were able to tell the truth in a single sentence.

“I know this, isn’t it that great king’s octopus that transformed into the Nine Mountain State after its death.”

The tone was quite flirtatious, but in reality, it was not a delusional statement.

It was indeed the words king and eight.

Its name is Tian (Heaven)

Its name is Tian.

Heavenly Beast …….”

A brilliant light flashed in Li Fan’s eyes.
