After Ye Feipeng finished his explanation, everyone marveled in astonishment.

They couldn’t help but gaze enviously at the pair of deep brown wings on his back.

Thousands of miles away, Li Fan, who was watching all of this, also wore an indescribable expression on his face.

“Kunpeng Essence Blood?”

“Just a single drop of blood essence can allow a transformative upheaval in a person’s body, even after thousands of years has passed, thanks to the lineage’s inheritance.”

Li Fan, who had cultivated the [Creation Furnace Skill] skills to a small degree, was very aware of this kind of formidable power.

“How powerful was the Kunpeng during its heyday?”

“Not to mention, there were many demonic beasts that were just as famous and even more vicious than the Kunpeng.”

“But nowadays, not a single one can be seen.”

“What on earth happened back then…”

Li Fan couldn’t help but sigh.

“I don’t know how the demonic beast’s blood essence strengthens the physical body. How different is it compared with the way my [Creation Furnace Skill] uses the power of Mi Chang within a human body?”

“I might have the chance to learn something by observing.”

Recalling the astonishing speed and force of Ye Feipeng just now, Li Fan quietly pondered.

“From the looks of it, Fatty doesn’t seem to have given up on his ambition for the Essence of Heaven and Earth. It’s unclear who will succeed between him and Zhang Zhiliang. Although Zhang Zhiliang’s skills currently far surpass those of Ye Feipeng, I have a slight feeling that Fatty has a better chance. I wonder why…”

“Let’s see what happens when he forms his Golden Core.”

With a glint in his eyes, Li Fan’s thoughts slowly calmed down.

He began to play with the glowing white cube in his hand again.

The cube was the Array Crown given to him by Zhang Zhiliang previously.

In these past six months, Li Fan had completely mastered the first twenty array techniques.

After several dozens of failed attempts, he finally created a “mini Array Crown” based on these twenty array techniques.

He wasted a lot of precious materials, and its power couldn’t be compared to the hundred-array combined Array Crown of Zhang Zhiliang.

But it was a good start.

It meant Li Fan had officially stepped into the field of array techniques.

Seeing the results after much difficulty brought joy to Li Fan’s heart.

It made him devote more effort to researching array techniques during this time.

As always, time always flew by when he was immersed in his thoughts and studies.

Before he knew it, it was already the 25th year.

One day, Li Fan suddenly felt a sense of apprehension.

With a quick sensing, he realized that the restriction to entering the [Realm of Fallen Immortal] was lifted. He could once again venture into it.

“I wonder where I’ll end up this time?”

With a bit of excitement and anticipation, Li Fan put all his other processes on hold.

He carefully prepared the ritual.

“Blessing Lifespan Xuan Huang Respectful Deity!”

Once the ritual was complete and his consciousness blurred, Li Fan found himself in the Fallen Immortal Realm again.

“Junior Brother? Junior Brother?”

The familiar voice echoed again.

Li Fan was startle and stared in astonishment at Zhang Qianmo who had once again appeared before him, waving his hand.

“What’s happening?”

“Why am I still here?”

“I clearly defeated him, resolved his obsession, and even gained a secret technique.”

“Where did it go wrong?”

In an instant, numerous questions flooded Li Fan’s mind.

The area surrounding Ningyuan City was similar to the [Legacy of the Eternal Will] of Tianyang.

Unable to resolve the obsession that upheld this space-time existence, Li Fan remained trapped within its confines.

But now…

Suppressing the disappointment in his heart, Li Fan quickly shifted his thoughts, analyzing the situation calmly.

There were only a few possibilities for the current situation.

First, Li Fan’s perception of this space-time region might be completely wrong.

Due to an unknown reason, he was trapped here forever.

No matter what method he tried, he could never leave.

Second, Li Fan’s perception was not incorrect.

But he had not yet properly resolved Zhang Qianmo’s obsession.

Whether he double-dated with Chi Xia, or sought a defeat, none of these were what he truly wanted.

There was also a third possibility…

As he thought of this, Li Fan’s eyes narrowed slightly as he looked around in all directions.

The thing maintaining this spacetime wasn’t Brother Zhang’s obsession at all.

Zhang Qianmo was nothing more than a standout supporting actor.

The real protagonist…

was someone else!

Which of these conjectures was correct?

Li Fan wasn’t certain either.

Fortunately, he had ample time to eliminate the wrong answers one by one.

When the time came, he’d know the correct answer.

Crushing his restless, impatient emotions, Li Fan slowly regained his calm.

At this point, Zhang Qianmo, who had witnessed the changing expressions on Li Fan’s face, finally asked, “Little Brother, what’s the matter?”

“Could it be that you are having a nightmare in broad daylight?”

Li Fan smiled faintly, “Elder Brother is indeed discerning. I did indeed have a vague nightmare, so I’m a bit unsettled.”

Now Zhang Qianmo was a bit curious, “Oh? What did you dream about?”

“I dreamt that Elder Brother was surrounded and attacked by an onslaught of Demonic Beasts. Overwhelmed by their numbers, you died in battle.” Li Fan shook his head, sighing, “It is truly ominous. I have no idea why I would dream about such a thing.”

Zhang Qianmo’s expression shifted slightly, his eyebrows creased.

“As cultivators, our minds are clear. We’re not like mortals who would fall into nightmares due to wild thoughts.”

“For this nightmare to arise suddenly, could it be that you sensed something subconsciously, triggering a self-warning in your spirit?”

Zhang Qianmo said thoughtfully, stroking his chin.

Li Fan was somewhat speechless in his heart.

He hadn’t expected that a casual remark would spur Zhang Qianmo to make so many speculations.

However, he did incidentally hit the mark. A minor “danger” did indeed exist in the city of Ningyuan ahead.

So, following his words, Li Fan continued, “Could it be that our mission to retrieve the Longevity Fruit might face some twists and turns, and won’t be so smooth?”

Zhang Qianmo was slightly startled but did not retort immediately.

After thinking for a moment, he replied, “Your concerns aren’t without reason.”

“I heard Master and Uncle casually mentioning that the Immortal Cultivation World hasn’t been peaceful recently.”

“To be safe, why don’t we sneak into Ningyuan City first and investigate?”

“Let’s see if there is anything unusual in the city.”

Li Fan had no objections and nodded in agreement.

Both of them then dispelled the Violet Sky Flying Cloud, concealed their auras and shapes, and quietly flew towards Ningyuan City.

“Elder Brother, do you know what your greatest wish in life is?”

While flying, Li Fan suddenly asked.

“Hmm? Little Brother, why do you ask this?” Zhang Qianmo was slightly surprised.

“Hehe, don’t blame me for asking this, Brother. In the dream just now, I saw Elder Brother die miserably, staring at me with eyes full of unfinished regrets.”

“The eyes were so real that even now, after waking up, it’s hard for me to forget. My mood isn’t settled yet, hence the question.”

Li Fan said slowely.
