Chapter 779 – The First Step of a Thousand Miles (6000 Moon Votes Plus)

“Perhaps by reaching the legendary realm of desirelessness, one can ignore Mr. Bai’s pollution.”

“But then again, if one truly has no desire for anything ……”

“Then there would be no more demanding [Returning the truth].”

Li Fan shook his head slightly, putting this unrealistic thought behind him.

With a tap of his index finger, he fixed the Dissociation Disk to hang in the air, then Li Fan took out eight white glittering crystals from his storage ring.

“At the moment of crisis, if I want to draw the attention of the Heavenly Xuan Mirror by instilling a formation into the Dissociation Disk, there will definitely not be that much time for me to do it slowly. Preparations need to be made in advance.”

Thinking so, Li Fan’s eyes narrowed slightly as he began to infuse the information of the [Reversal of Death and Life Formation] into each of these eight flashing crystals.

This crystal, which was an existence similar to the Formation Coronet, was named Formation Crystal. It could record and preserve formations, only that the Formation Coronet could be reused multiple times while the Formation Crystals were only disposable.

Each formation crystal, a part of the formation was burned down. And then it was maneuvered by Li Fan and hovered around the dissociation disk.

“With just a thought from me, these formation crystals will burst open in unison, instilling the formation information into the Dissociation Disk.”

Li Fan looked at the eight bright white crystals and laid down another formation to restrain them in case of accidents.

Then, there was the [Tianxuan Spirit Locking Formation].

After completing these repetitive actions, the Dissociation Disk, which was wrapped in the center by the sixteen flashing crystals, could no longer be seen in its original appearance.

Li Fan carefully stowed it separately in a blank storage ring.

“It’s still not certain if the Tianxuan Sublime Body is really still connected to the Tianxuan Mirror. This is also just a backup means.”

“One still needs to be prepared for everything and fight hard.”

After leaving the secret room, Li Fan first came to the Thousand Miles Hall in Tian Quan City.

This place was so shuttered that even the plaque was hanging crooked, and Jiao Xiuyuan had not even come out to deal with it.

“I heard earlier that the business of the Thousand Miles Hall was in the doldrums, and it’s really true.” Li Fan said in his heart as he stepped into it with big strides.

Because of the gradual popularization of the Tian Xuan Treasure Guide, it made it possible for cultivators to still trade with each other without any obstacles even if they were separated by dozens of states.

At anytime, anywhere, there were almost no restrictions on transactions.

And because of the publicization of so much information, the prices of all commodities were also almost transparent.

This could be considered a dimensional blow to merchants like Jiao Xiuyuan. Almost overnight, countless stores disappeared.

It was also thanks to the fact that Jiao Xiuyuan’s business was only for cultivation. As long as it didn’t lose money, it wasn’t a big problem. For real profit, it was not so much a life and death need.

But obviously, the steep loss of cultivation, Jiao Xiuyuan is not so good.

“What exactly should I do ……”

Jiao Xiuyuan lay listlessly behind the wooden counter that had fallen into a layer of dust, muttering in a low voice.

He was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn’t even realize that someone had walked in.

Li Fan gently knocked.

Jiao Xiuyuan instantly jumped up with a jolt, “A guest is coming?”

He stared at Li Fan with some suspicion, his face still somewhat unbelievable.

Li Fan, on the other hand, slowly surveyed this puppet body of Jiao Xiuyuan, staring at the other party with some creepiness.

“You ……” Jiao Xiuyuan said with some astonishment.

“Fellow Daoist Jiao, I don’t know if this puppet body of yours is for sale. The price is negotiable!” Li Fan then said with a smile.

Jiao Xiuyuan burst into color, slammed the table, and was about to speak vehemently, but suddenly stopped.

He stared dead on at the thing that Li Fan had taken out quietly in his hand.

“This is ……” He who had seen a lot of things, almost instantly saw that the aura on it was similar to that of the Heavenly Xuan Mirror.

“Tian Xuan Sublime Body?” Jiao Xiuyuan was shocked.

There were definitely no more than fifty Heavenly Xuan Sublime Bodies in the entire Xuan Huang Realm combined.

Each one of them had a peculiar function, and basically had a price without a market. There was simply no cultivator who would take them out and sell them.

The information of different Tian Xuan Secondary Bodies flashed rapidly in Jiao Xiu Yuan’s mind, but none of them matched the one in front of him.

Jiao Xiuyuan’s heart thumped as he waved his hand to close the store door and warmly entertained Li Fan.

“Good talk, good talk! It’s not just a puppet body, not a problem.” “Just don’t know what you have in your hand, this is …… exactly” Jiao Xiuyuan lowered his voice and tried to ask.

Li Fan also answered very painfully, “Tian Xuan Sublime Body, Terminal Disc.”

“It can shield the perception of the Heavenly Xuan Mirror and the Heavenly Xuan Treasure Guide.”

Jiao Xiuyuan’s eyes were still glowing when he heard Li Fan’s first words.

But after Li Fan said the second sentence, he shivered violently.

Subconsciously, he looked around and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

“Is this statement true?”

But soon, he was in his original form.

A hint of greed flashed in his eyes, and Jiao Xiuyuan wanted to reach out and touch it.

To his surprise, Li Fan actually did not stop him from touching such a treasure at all.

Instead, he allowed him to take this Final Disc into his hands.

“Hmm?” Jiao Xiuyuan was a bit puzzled as he carefully surveyed the white jade-like disk.

Turning it over and over.

A moment later, his face showed astonishment.

Deadly grasping it, he looked up and stared at the puzzled Li Fan.

“Fellow Daoist ……”

Li Fan reached out and interrupted it, “What does Fellow Daoist Jiao think, what is the value of this object?”

“Inestimable! The stronger the Heavenly Xuan Mirror is, the more urgent the cultivator’s need for this item will be, and the higher the value will be!” Jiao Xiuyuan blurted out.

“What price does fellow Daoist want to sell it for?” Jiao Xiuyuan certainly wouldn’t think that the other party would take out such a precious treasure just for his one puppet body. At that moment, he hurriedly asked.

He, however, in an instant, had already figured out the way to survive in the future.

That was to go the way of boutique and monopolized goods.

You’re not a publicized commodity, are you?
If I’m the only one in the world who has this thing, the price will still be set by me.

In addition to their own stores all over the world, the publicity ability is unparalleled.

If every piece of fine art is auctioned ……

The scale of the business would be smaller though, and the profit might not be affected, but instead would go further.

Jiao Xiuyuan was filled with the future.

And a sentence from Li Fan was born to pull him back to reality.

“Didn’t I make it very clear, a puppet body of a fellow Daoist.”

Li Fan’s bland and incomparable words, however, made Jiao Xiuyuan a little confused.

Since he was in doubt.

“It’s hard to believe that I’m the one who looked away. This thing, in reality, is a fake?”

Jiao Xiuyuan quietly observed the Terminal Disc in his hand again.

“Fellow Daoist Jiao doesn’t have to be suspicious, there is absolutely no problem with the effects of this item.”

“So, my request, may be a bit special.” Li Fan said in a quiet tone.

Jiao Xiuyuan’s face changed in a cloudy manner.

However, with Li Fan’s continuous voice transmission, it became a little dismayed again.

And then he couldn’t stop nodding his head.

In the Thousand Miles Hall, the two of them talked for a long time.

And then Li Fan did not take back the Terminal Disc and quietly left.

Likewise, he did not take away the puppet body.
—
There will be two more normal chapters later.

I’ve already added three chapters for the monthly votes, so why am I being asked to add five?
