The conversation going on in the house reached the ears of Xu Ke, creating a significant impact on his tiny heart.

His eyes were wide open, his mouth slightly agape, and he seemed lost for words.

While Li Fan wasn’t shocked by the Emperor Tri-Moa’s ruthless indifference towards humans, what left him helpless was the faint aura emanating from the old man with a white beard, inducing a sense of trembling from the depths of the mystic bird’s soul he was possessing.

Under the oppression of the superior being, even the thought process of the mystic bird seemed to freeze momentarily. It was instinctively trembling, unable to make any other movements.

From the ancestral memories passed down to the mystic bird through its bloodline, Li Fan immediately understood the noble status of the beast of wisdom, Emperor Tri-Moa, among the exotic beasts.

During the ancient ages when exotic beasts had not yet flourished, Emperor Tri-Moa had already been a prophet for his kind, leading the species towards development with his unparalleled wisdom.

He was unique. Even though he was an exotic beast, he always enjoyed to take human form.

Unlike many exotic beasts who strictly avoid contact with humans, it is said that he had wandered in the human world for hundreds of years and made many human friends.

He urged the exotic beasts to unite and devote themselves, just like humans.

After studying numerous human techniques, he significantly improved the cultivation speed of the exotic beasts by tweaking techniques from various races.

The fact that the exotic beasts could evolve from a corner of the world to be everywhere was definitely credited to Emperor Tri-Moa.

However, that was a story from countless years ago.

But the image of Emperor Tri-Moa standing before Li Fan was surprisingly identical to the one seen by the ancestors of the mystic bird.

The mystic birds had reproduced generation after generation, but Emperor Tri-Moa, he was always the same Emperor Tri-Moa.

Beast of wisdom, but also of longevity.

The wisdom that far surpassed the reach of ordinary people was a result of living long enough and experiencing plentiful.

However, Emperor Tri-Moa seemed to have rarely appeared in public a long time ago.

He disappeared without a trace.

To think that he actually appeared here quietly in the Beast Taming Sect, which was the most hated by the exotic beasts.

It seemed that Emperor Tri-Moa held quite a high position in the Beast Taming Sect, even considering himself as a leader.

The old man with a white beard discussed a few more things with Lu Ya, then turned to look at the mystic bird, which was possessed by Li Fan.

With a slight nod, Emperor Tri-Moa said contentedly, “Being able to follow this child is a blessing for your Mystic Bird Tribe. Perhaps, you will last longer than the other branches.”

“However, why do you look malnourished…”

“Oh, so you were separated from your mother at birth, and you didn’t get the nourishment you needed.”

Emperor Tri-Moa lightly stroked his beard, pulling out one strand.

This beard emitted a faint glow which was flicked by him into Li Fan’s body.

The white light scurried around, everywhere it passed, vibrant vitality sprung up.

The sense of becoming stronger was even more intense than when he was previously breathing in the luck that emanated from Xu Ke.

This almost made Li Fan let out a comfortable cry.

After circulating within his body once, the white light didn’t disappear, it just dimmed a bit.

Then, it started its next cycle.

Immersed in this warm vitality, Li Fan felt extremely relaxed, his mind began to feel sleepy.

Before he fell into a deep sleep, he heard the surprised voice of Lu Ya, “Senior, what are you doing…”

What Emperor Tri-Moa gave was absolutely particularly beneficial for the mystic bird.

It was because of this that Li Fan’s Fallen Immortal Realm journey, which was supposed to last for over three months, ended unexpectedly and unclearly.

When he regained his consciousness, he was back in the Tianxuan Mirror in the real world.

Although this journey was extremely short and there were no gains.

Li Fan at least knew that the next time he entered, it should also start from the time point after the deep sleep and continue the series.

The final gain from setting up such a long prelude should not be too shabby.

Moreover, Li Fan was also very curious about what was the task assigned by Mr. Bai.

And what would be the final outcome for Lu Ya, Xu Ke, and the Emperor Tri-Moa.

After observing the experiences in his Fallen Immortal Realm within his spirit consciousness, Li Fan pondered for a while. Seeing that Master Ji had not sent a summons yet, he once again immersed himself in cultivation.

Two months later, when the “Extraordinary True Spirit Transformation Technique” had advanced to the Foundation Establishment Stage, Ji Hongdao finally sent a message.

The message was concise, without any superfluous words.

“In seven days, come see me at the Universal Courtyard,” it read.

Li Fan didn’t set off right away but first inquired about Xue Mu.

“Friend Xue Mu, where are you currently? Did you receive Master Ji’s summons?” he asked.

After a cup of tea’s time, Xue Mu replied, “Friend Li Fan, I am currently in Tianchen State. A renowned old fisherman has been residing here recently and has shown more interest than usual. There have been three consecutively lucky ones who have benefitted from him. Therefore, I wanted to try my luck.”

“Unfortunately, luck is not on my side this time. By the time I arrived, he was already nowhere to be found. I was thinking of looking around for a while more when I received Master Ji’s summons.”

Li Fan replied, “As for the luck, we can’t force it. The task of building the Tianxuan Spirit Locking Array is crucial for both of us and cannot be delayed. My friend, you should return quickly. I’ll wait for you in the city, and we can go together.”

Xue Mu’s surprised voice came over, “Okay, you’re right, my friend. I’ll come back right away.”

The Immortal Alliance hinterland was full of interconnected teleport portals, making traveling quick and easy.

In just half a day, Xue Mu had returned to Tianyu City.

“Let’s go,” Li Fan, looking at Xue Mu who appeared somewhat travel-worn but whose spirit seemed much stronger than before, nodded in affirmation.

“My apologies for keeping you waiting,” Xue Mu said with a guilt-ridden face.

“Never mind that,” Li Fan waved his hand, indicating that it was not a big deal.

“You had just broken through to the Golden Core Realm a year ago, but from the aura I sense from you, it seems you’re not far from another breakthrough?” Li Fan examined Xue Mu for a moment before asking in surprise.

Xue Mu nodded, “Your sharp eyes are commendable. In fact, I haven’t put much effort into cultivation recently. Most of my time was spent sightseeing and exploring interesting places in the nearby states. I didn’t intentionally pursue the increase in cultivation level, but unknowingly, my cultivation has grown remarkably under the influence of various wonderful laws of Heaven and Earth.”

“On the other hand, my cultivation would level up not as well as expected during my own cultivation time.”

Embarrassed, he scratched his head, “I’m not sure why it’s happened.”

Suddenly, he paused and said uncertainly, “Could it be… the influence of the [Mortal to God Wall] has not disappeared yet?”

“Is it really that magical? What did you see on the wall?” Surprised by the answer, Li Fan couldn’t help but ask.

In the midst of their conversation, they had reached the outside of Universal Courtyard.

Once they stepped in, unlike the last time, there were no subsequent array techniques to greet them. They directly arrived at a small courtyard with a pleasant ambiance.

The courtyard was empty. Li Fan and Xue Mu found a place to sit down, and then continued their earlier conversation.
