Chapter 367: 344: Fortune Follows the Change of Fate

Does the Thousand-faced Demon Lord really exist?

This question is not actually important.

Since the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals and countless cultivators have already reached a conclusion, no matter what he was in the past.

From this day forward, he is but a ghost roaming in the territory of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.

Selecting its victims at will, making people unable to defend effectively.

Any person could potentially be the irredeemable Thousand-faced Demon Lord.

The decisive right to his identity lies in the hands of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals who possess the Tianxuan Soul Locking Array.

This is what matters the most.

Li Fan can almost foresee that once the Spirit-locking Formation is fully constructed, the cultivators of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals will face an even more perilous cultivation environment.

“When that time comes, the situation will be utterly collapsed. As a mere Golden Core Cultivator, it seems I would hardly be able to save myself. Perhaps it would be best to retreat…”

Meet dangers calmly and decisively. It’ll take at least ten more years until the popularity of the Spirit-locking Formation. Any more hindrances, at the current stage, for Li Fan, would simply be overthinking.

Take it one step at a time.

Li Fan suppressed his complicated thoughts and invoked the ritual to enter the Fallen Immortal Realm.

“Blessing Lifespan Xuan Huang Immortal!”

The scene before his eyes gradually became clear from fuzzy.

A whooshing wind was continuously heard.

It seemed like he was rapidly flying high in the sky, and the piercing cold around him made Li Fan shiver slightly.

“Huh? This time it’s different from what happened in Ningyuan City, not starting over in an egg?” Li Fan, who had recovered a trace of his self-consciousness, was somewhat surprised.

But quickly, he recalled the moment when the scene before his eyes had occurred.

The little boy, Xu Ke, was tightly holding onto the Azure Luan Bird’s neck, and Li Fan was hanging from his neck.

The Azure Luan Bird, following the direction indicated by the little boy, was racing towards a certain direction.

Isn’t this the scene of the last time he left the Fallen Immortal Realm?

Has this turned into a serial drama?

Li Fan felt a bit strange.

Although he had lost the opportunity to explore possibilities infinitely, he wouldn’t feel anxious about repeatedly experiencing certain times and spaces.

One could say there were both advantages and disadvantages.

Being incarnated as a Mystic Bird greatly limited Li Fan’s thinking ability.

He simply stopped thinking so much and began scratching Xu Ke’s hair while pondering the Divine Technique he had understood last time he entered.

Apart from that powerful Heavenly Mandate Xuan Light, there was the Heavenly Mandate in Me, which could solidify fortune without scattering.

Narrowing his eyes, he once again looked at the top of Xu Ke’s head, and saw that beam of golden purple light shooting into the sky.

Li Fan instinctively began to absorb the strands of energy radiating out from the golden purple light.

It felt as though he had swallowed the most potent elixir in existence between Heaven and Earth. Bits of golden purple light entered his body; Li Fan felt as if he had jumped into a hot spring, his body wonderfully warm.

He could clearly feel his divine soul and body slowly growing stronger.

Letting out a comfortable breath, he transformed into a faint golden thread invisible to the average person and plunged back into the golden purple light of fortune above Xu Ke’s head.

“Heavenly Mandate Mystic bird, so that’s how it is…”

Li Fan suddenly understood what the Heavenly Mandate in Me Divine Technique was about.

In the world, various living beings each have their own fortune, not all the same.

Some are fortunate enough to make things always go smoothly, and they are able to transform bad situations into good ones.

While others may be born with extreme bad luck, where even drinking cold water could lead to toothache.

But fortune is not unchanging.

It is instead extremely susceptible to the influence of the external environment.

Those who have smooth sailing in the first half of their lives may suddenly encounter continuous bad luck, causing their lives to take a sharp turn downwards after experiencing certain things.

Those who have had bad luck for most of their lives may also suddenly see their fortunes change one day, and henceforth become rich and prosperous.

The reason for this is that fortune can interact with external objects, and is extremely changeable.

The weaker the original fortune, the more so it is.

For someone as important as Xu Ke, his fortune might not be so easily influenced.

However, every disaster would consume a portion of his original fortune.

In his everyday activities, his fortune would be constantly radiating outwards, depleting himself.

Over time, if only expenditure occurs without any income, the fortune naturally weakens gradually.

The Heavenly Mandate in Me Divine Technique of the Mystic Bird involves absorbing the master’s daily exposed fortune. While nourishing itself, it returns the condensed fortune to the master.

This does not only help the master build up and strengthen his fortune to avoid wastage, but also allows borrowing of the bird’s fortune during times of crisis.

This allows one to overcome life-and-death predicaments using strong fortune.

In summary, the Mystic Bird and its masters could be said to complement and complete each other.

“It seems it’s not bad to follow this kid.” After greedily taking another breath of the invisible Golden Purple Essence, Li Fan couldn’t help thinking.

“Hey, kid, where are we headed now?” After absorbing this strand of fortune, Li Fan felt himself become a bit more powerful.

With a move in his heart, he immediately tried communicating with Xu Ke.

This was of course not through verbal communication, but through mental chanting.

“Wow! Little Black, you’ve actually learned mental communication!” Soon, Xu Ke’s voice echoed in Li Fan’s mind.

“Little… Black? Whom are you referring to?” Li Fan abruptly grabbed and swooped down on Xu Ke.

“Wow, it hurts.” Xu Ke touched his head from left to right and said innocently, “The Crane Bird is Little Red, the Azure Luan Bird is Little Green. You are all black, it’s not wrong for me to call you Little Black, right?”

Li Fan fiercely pecked him several times: “I am the great Heavenly Mandate Mystic Bird! How can you use such a crude name?!”

“Alright.” Xu Ke, feeling the pain, had no choice but to compromise.

“Let’s just call you Little Xuan.”

Although Li Fan was still somewhat upset, behind his beastly avatar, his brain had not yet fully developed.

With limited brain capacity, he could not come up with a better name for the moment, and thus temporarily let it go.

“You still haven’t answered my question, where are we going now?” Li Fan asked.

Xu Ke laughed foolishly at seeing Li Fan accepting the name he had picked for him.

At the same time, he responded in his mind, “We’re going to find Senior Brother Lu Ya now.”

“Right now, the whole sect is still in a mess, all thanks to Mr. Bai’s harsh actions, he scared everyone.”

“Many senior brothers don’t want to practice within the sect anymore, feeling there’s no future.”

“Those who ran have run, those who escaped have escaped. Our uncles, aunts, and many elders seem to have run somewhere, and no one has come forward to maintain order.”

“This has caused the chaos to worsen.”

“It’s really too dangerous, if we meet someone like Song Yang again, we might not be so lucky.”

“So, we should go find Senior Brother Lu Ya, he’s so strong, it’s certainly safer to stay by his side.”

“And maybe I can meet Mr. Bai by the way, hehe.”

Xu Ke thought quickly, speaking in an uninterrupted stream.

“How do you know where your Senior Brother Lu Ya is?” Li Fan asked somewhat surprisingly.
