- Chapter 1090 - 1045: Enlightenment Grand Master
The paper man suddenly appeared when Li Fan tried to use the Colored Jade Hollow Glare containing the Grey Mold Spot to erode the Tome of Tribulation Transcendence.
According to the paper man himself, it was some kind of early warning mechanism.
The Calamity Transcendence Sect did not completely ignore the external world after transforming into a paper man.
The paper man monitored Xuanhuang. When it sensed a threat from the outside world reaching a certain level, the warning mechanism would activate.
The more severe the crisis, the more paper men would awaken.
The Grey Mold Spot released by Li Fan was still contained within the Seven-color Divine Light. Therefore, only a slight leakage of the aura was enough to awaken just one paper man.
However, once this paper man figured out the current state of the Tome of Tribulation Transcendence and the Xuanhuang World, whether it would wake up other sleeping paper men or not…
Considering the numerous chaotic fluctuations that had previously emanated from the Tome of Tribulation Transcendence, the answer was definite.
It seemed there were some limitations. After deliberating, the majority of Calamity Transcendence Sect’s paper men chose to go back to sleep again.
Only a paper man named “Dan Xuan” remained to take full responsibility for communicating with Li Fan.
Charged with the survival of the entire Calamity Transcendence Sect, Dan Xuan’s identity was certainly extraordinary.
Nevertheless, no matter how many strategies he had, he could only repeatedly suffer setbacks and compromise in the face of Li Fan’s constant threats of global destruction.
Because Dan Xuan realized that each time Li Fan’s killing intent surfaced, it was no act.
He genuinely did not care about his own life or the lives of all beings in Xuanhuang World, intending to drag everything down with him.
Facing such an unreasonable “madman,” Dan Xuan was completely helpless.
At this moment, sensing Li Fan’s dangerous thoughts surfacing once again, he hurriedly appeared and started persuading him.
“Getting you guys to help find someone, and it’s all push-backs and obstructions. It seems your Calamity Transcendence Sect doesn’t actually care that much about the Xuanhuang World,” sneered Li Fan.
The conflicted expression on paper man Dan Xuan’s face nearly squeezed together, “Young friend, I have said many times already. It’s not that we are unwilling, but that we are unable. We did not anticipate that the Xuanhuang World would have expanded to such an extent during our slumber.”
“There are too many blind spots. The overall monitoring system of the Tome of Tribulation Transcendence has been affected as well. If it is to specifically look up a particular paper man, it can still be done. But to oversee the whole situation…”
Dan Xuan slightly swayed his body, “Unless we supplement the paper men for those newly emerged domains.”
Facing Dan Xuan’s excuses, Li Fan made an utterly unconvinced gesture.
“I understand your urgent feelings to find King of Ink Law and seek revenge with the Mystic Sky Treasure Mirror, young friend.”
“But I’m afraid there’s no one in the world who knows the horrors of the Mystic Sky Sect better than the elders of the Immortal Dao Ten Clans. If it weren’t for the help of the Tiandu Grandmaster back then, we would have had no chance at all,” he said.
“Inheritance from the Immortal World’s Tao Lineage is not something that our native techniques from the Xuanhuang World can compare with.”
Dan Xuan seemed to recall the might of the Mystic Sky Sect years ago, and his paper body trembled slightly.
“Losing to them…”
“Is not unjust. You should not dwell too much on it, young friend. Of course, if you insist on taking revenge…”
Dan Xuan paused, then still offered the advice he had given several times before, “Perhaps you should ask the Tiandu Grandmaster to intervene. For the remnants of the Mystic Sky Sect, he would undoubtedly be very interested.”
Dan Xuan’s tone remained so sincere; it seemed as if he truly had Li Fan’s best interests at heart.
“I can feel that the Grandmaster is still in seclusion in the Xuanhuang World. At his level, ten thousand years are merely a blink of an eye. I was fortunate to have been personally taught by the Grandmaster, and I could barely hold a conversation in his presence. If young friend is willing…”
Dan Xuan spoke persuasively.
“How powerful can someone be if they consider the likes of your Calamity Transcendence Sect, which are garbage, to be treasures?” Li Fan dispelled all pretense with a single sentence, causing Dan Xuan to lose his composure instantly.
However, he had deep self-control and quickly regained his composure.
He did not take Li Fan’s scorn seriously and continued to persuade him.
“We have not perfected our art and failed to inherit the Grandmaster’s divine might, which is quite normal. But the Grandmaster’s ability to contend with the King of Mystic Sky without a decisive outcome speaks volumes of his strength.”
Li Fan continued to mock: “How come the clues I found indicate that the Tiandu Grandmaster was severely injured after a battle back then and has since been hiding and licking his wounds? He hasn’t recovered even to this day?”
“The Immortal Alliance of Yuandao State gets devoured by ten years every once in a while. That’s his handiwork.”
Dan Xuan first was slightly stunned, “Has it really been ten years?”
Then he shook his head repeatedly and explained, “I don’t know where young friend got his information, but it’s outrageously wrong. The Grandmaster’s seclusion isn’t due to injury. It’s because of enlightenment!”
“Enlightenment?” Li Fan’s eyes narrowed.
“Indeed. The closer one gets to the Immortal Ruins above one’s head, the slower the flow of time. The Grandmaster told us that this spatial-temporal disturbance was caused by a Fairy’s enlightenment. If one’s aptitude is sufficient, one could use this disturbance to trace back to the Fairy’s enlightenment,” Dan Xuan said, somewhat wistfully.
“However, not a single cultivator from the Immortal Dao Ten Clans has been able to meet the requirements for this resonant enlightenment. Only the Grandmaster…”
“Those so-called ’missing ten years’ in Yuandao State are just manifestations of time being slowed down to the extreme. It must be the inadvertent external influence of the Tiandu Grandmaster during his process of enlightenment. Before we went into slumber, the impact of the Grandmaster’s enlightenment domain lasted less than a year. It seems his enlightenment has made significant progress over these years.”
Li Fan first absorbed the content of Dan Xuan’s words, then sneered, “So the Grandmaster is so powerful, yet as the Xuanhuang World faces catastrophe, why don’t you turn to him? Instead, you flee and act like turtles hiding their heads?”
Dan Xuan was like someone who had his throat grabbed, suddenly too uncomfortable to speak.
After a long time, he finally spoke softly, “Perhaps the Grandmaster doesn’t really care about our life and death. We have tried to contact him, but to no avail.”
“No response back then, but there’s one now? And you keep persuading me to find him…”
“You really are harboring ill intentions, aren’t you?” The murderous intent in Li Fan’s eyes, which had already died, flared up again.
Dan Xuan protested repeatedly, “That was then, this is now! After waking up, isn’t it very normal to want to contact the Grandmaster at once?”
“Nonsense!”
As Dan Xuan’s patience ran out under the pressure of silence, he was forced back into the Tome of Tribulation Transcendence.
“If young friend changes his mind, just call me. I will absolutely not harm you! The Grandmaster is kind-hearted…”
Dan Xuan’s words abruptly ceased.
Li Fan suppressed the Tome of Tribulation Transcendence again and then fell into contemplation.
“Interesting. The battle between the King of Mystic Sky and the Tiandu Grandmaster back then, the Mystic Sky Sect and the Immortal Dao Ten Clans, each had their own story.”
“Each thought the other was critically injured. They believed they themselves had made breakthroughs during the great battle.”
