“Li Fan, are you alright?”

Qi Buyi and others noticed a sudden change in Li Fan’s complexion and asked with concern.

Li Fan forced a faint smile. “Maybe it’s because I’m getting old, I’m not used to this lively atmosphere. I suddenly feel a bit unwell.”

Gu Youguang looked somewhat remorseful. “If I had known, I wouldn’t have disturbed your rest!”

Li Fan waved his hand slightly. “You don’t need to worry Gu, I’ll be fine after some rest.”

Xiang Liu and Gu Youguang both nodded.

Before leaving, Qi Buyi looked at Li Fan and unexpectedly asked, “Can you tell me how you managed to maintain such an optimistic and fearless state over the past few years, knowing well that your time was running out?”

Xiang Liu and Gu Youguang were also quite curious, casting their gaze towards him.

Li Fan paused for a moment and replied indifferently, “Live every day like it’s your last, then you won’t fear death.”

“That’s all there is to it.”

An unusual light gleamed in Qi Buyi’s eyes and he slowly nodded.

“Next, before the grand competition ends, I will assign you a relatively easy but extremely important task in constructing the Spirit-locking Formation.”

“It’s what you deserve.”

After a moment, Qi Buyi said.

Li Fan’s face showed no signs of excitement and he merely said indifferently, “In that case, thank you Elder Qi.”

He then bid farewell to everyone and returned to his rented courtyard in the Debating Tower.

In the secret room, Li Fan sifted through the memories that had suddenly resurfaced in his mind.

He also recalled some of the measures he had previously taken.

He removed the Blank Jade Scroll which had been stored in his ring and found that its recorded content had indeed been restored.

After Xiao Fan and Han Yi left the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals’ headquarters, they decided to head for Yuandao State together.

At that time, they were nearing the 29th anchoring year, and the event known as the “Decade of Disappearance in Yuandao State” was about to occur.

To test the influence of “it” that hovered above Yuandao State, Li Fan recorded the matter in the Jade Scroll using a cipher that only he knew.

And for comparison, Li Fan etched the characters representing “Dao” and “Yuan” respectively onto two Blank Jade Scrolls.

As Li Fan had predicted.

When the time entered the 29th anchoring year, Li Fan unknowingly lost all memories related to Yuandao State.

Even the existence of his clone in the state was overlooked.

Not only were the memories gone, but the scroll’s records had also turned blank.

Only the “Dao” and “Yuan” characters he had etched before remained preserved.

“Inexplicable and unforgettable…” Li Fan’s expression was incredibly solemn.

“If I hadn’t been unable to cultivate the clone, I wouldn’t have detected any clues.”

“But even so, even though I knew something was wrong, I still couldn’t recall anything about Yuandao State.”

“Not until now, the 39th anchoring year…”

“The missing Yuandao State has reappeared on the surface.”

“In fact, even now, knowing what happened to the clone, the clone itself remains completely unaware…”

At the same time, in Yuandao State.

“Xiao Fan, what’s wrong?” Han Yi turned around, looking at Xiao Fan who had suddenly stopped, and asked with some surprise.

They were on their way to an ancient ruin of Tiandu.

According to legend, in ancient times, “Tiandu” hung high above the nine heavens, claiming to be the source of Taoism, and the leader of all doctrines.

Then for unknown reasons, “Tiandu” fell to the earth, forming more than a dozen ruins in Yuandao State.

That is their destination.

He had a feeling that there were great opportunities waiting for them ahead.

Thinking of this, Han Yi looked at Xiao Fan again.

“His luck is gloomy and hard to discern; according to the ‘Heavenly Fate Sutra’, his luck is either too strong, exceeding my current ability to discern, or it’s too weak, almost nonexistent, and therefore indiscernible.”

“His ability to gain the Rebirth Longevity Fruit that adds three hundred years to his life span indicates that it’s the former. Perhaps I can make use of his good luck on this journey.”

Han Yi thought to himself.

The ‘Heavenly Fate Sutra’ is the technique he cultivates, created by a different kind of being who observed the Divine Technique of the ancient exotic beast, the Heavenly Mandate Mystic Bird.

This was also why he was able to win the Dingyu Jackpot and start the Tian Du Hua Feather Pill from the Lan Yu Treasure Box.

The Heavenly Fate Sutra has many mysterious uses, but the most crucial is that it allows control over one’s own luck.

According to the scripture, the luck of a being is not fixed and is always interacting with outside forces.

If one cannot control his own luck, it will be reduced gradually with each lucky occurrence.

By cultivating the ‘Heavenly Fate Sutra’, one can usually converge his own luck, avoiding wasting it on unnecessary things.

When a critical moment comes, one can explode his accumulated luck all at once.

Thus achieving a nearly “as-you-wish” state of affairs.”

Of course, side effects are inevitable. After the explosion, a long period of downturn will ensue.

During this period, even drinking cold water can lead to toothache, and nothing goes smoothly.

The solution is to find a person with strong luck to follow.

Borrow their luck to dissipate calamity.”

However, Xiao Fan’s clone was not aware of Han Yi’s thoughts.

When the “missing decade” was restored in an instant, the shared experiences of this period from his original self flooded into his mind.

But his sense of perception didn’t feel the loss of time at all.

Caught between disoriented extremes, the clone felt rather uncomfortable.

But in front of Han Yi, the clone didn’t show it.

Displaying a casual demeanor, he kept pace. “Don’t worry about it, I just suddenly remembered some old things.” Saying this, the clone looked up at the sky, his expression inscrutable.

“Oh? Have you been to Yuandao State before, Xiao Daoyou?” Han Yi asked with some curiosity.

“Hehe, that was a long time ago.”

During their idle chat, the two, each with their own hidden agenda, continued their journey to the ancient ruins of Tiandu.

Meanwhile, after understanding the perceptions of his clone, Li Fan in Tianchen State also had some thoughts.

“Although ‘it’ has temporarily disappeared, its influence remains. It is reflected in the beings in Yuandao State, who are completely unaware that ten years of their lives have been devoured.”

“Even though the clone is aware of the established facts, it still can’t detect any abnormalities.”

“The power to distort cognition is so strong.”

“The reason I was able to detect it quickly is not because I escaped its influence, but because…”

“My cognition is built upon the experience of the 12th lifetime being devoured for ten years, not the present life.”

“Although ‘its’ power is strong, it cannot penetrate through time.”

Thinking of this, Li Fan took a deep breath.

The trailing shadows in his heart brought about by ‘it’ slowly faded.

“It seems that all I need to do is to eliminate the traces it has left on me, and there should be no major issues.”
