After the strange vision disappeared, Li Fan keenly sensed that some kind of indescribable change seemed to have occurred within him.

However, after a careful inspection, he couldn’t figure out what this change was.

But it’s likely not a bad thing.

Li Fan decided not to worry about it for now, keeping this incident in mind.

Determining his current location, Li Fan noticed a slight deviation from where he emerged in the Immortal Cultivation World in his previous life.

But the difference wasn’t too great.

Li Fan decided to head to Liuli Island first, as it was the closest place.

After all, he spent a long time on Liuli Island in his previous life and was familiar with the place.

He Zhenghao, the so-called “good old man”, was a bit greedy, but at least his actions were relatively reliable.

Compared to others, Li Fan preferred to deal with acquaintances to minimize uncertainty.

After determining his direction, Li Fan did not control the Tai Yan Boat and instead flew toward Liuli Island with the Gale Secret Technique.

He wanted to play the part of a lone cultivator from the Misthaven Ocean who had coincidentally cultivated to the final stage of energy refining.

Wanting to break through to the Foundation Establishment Phase but not knowing how, he planned to join the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.

For lone cultivators in the current Immortal Cultivation World, life was quite tough.

Unlike members of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals and Five Elders Organization, who had access to regular channels to obtain techniques.

Lone cultivators often had to risk their lives to explore the ruins of ancient sects in the hope of finding a technique.

Not only did they have to face the eerie mechanisms within the ruins, but they also had to be on guard against their covetous peers.

A single careless mistake could lead to their demise.

Yet, these lone cultivators, despite all the dangers, are unwilling to join these two organizations, preferring not to be bound by others and becoming tools for others to exploit.

For these lone cultivators, their freedom was above all else.

Different choices merely reflected different viewpoints. No one can really say who is right or wrong.

Hence, using the Tai Yan Boat might make a lone cultivator stand out too much.

To avoid any unnecessary trouble or suspicion, Li Fan chose to fly himself.

Though it was a bit slow, Li Fan was not in a hurry and saw this as a chance to adapt.

This was because, back in Da Xuan, Li Fan vaguely felt that his affinity with spiritual energy had mysteriously increased in this life.

But because the Immortal Realm didn’t have any spiritual energy, he couldn’t confirm this feeling.

Finally, in the Immortal Cultivation World absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy, Li Fan confirmed that his hunch was correct.

If his previous life was likened to forcefully extracting spiritual energy from

Heaven and Earth through the Root of Heaven and Earth, akin to a water pump.

Then in this life, he only needs a thought, and the Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Energy would obediently enter his dantian, without any force needed.

Even though it was not as intimate as what Xiao Heng had mentioned, it was already many times better than before.

Li Fan guessed that the reason causing this change was likely related to the

Root of Heaven and Earth.

The Root of Heaven and Earth in his last life was cultivated from the five emotions of greed, fear, rage, hatred and ego.

While the Root of Heaven and Earth in his dantian in this life was manifested directly through [Real].

If the Root of Heaven and Earth cultivated from the Five Spirit Sensing Qi

Method was filled with brutality and darkness, negative emotions; then the

Root of Heaven and Earth provided by [Real] was neutral, calm, and natural.

He didn’t expect that inheriting his previous cultivation through [Real] would bring about such benefits.

While filled with joy, Li Fan had a vague feeling that there could be a deeper reason behind it all.

However, before he could ponder further on it, his face suddenly changed.

Because in his senses, a killing intent had appeared from afar and was firmly locked on him, rapidly approaching him at a high speed.

Moreover, the opponent’s aura was immensely strong, at least at the Foundation Establishment Phase!

Although it felt somewhat inexplicable, Li Fan didn’t hesitate.

He immediately summoned the Tai Yan Boat, accelerated to maximum speed, and fled towards the nearest Liuli Island.

The opponent seemed surprised that Li Fan actually had such a treasure as a flying boat, hesitated for a moment and then accelerated even more.

Within the Tai Yan Boat, Li Fan’s expression was gloomy.

The distance was too far, beyond the coverage of his divine sense.

However, judging from the gradually approaching killing intent, the opponent’s speed definitely surpassed his own when piloting the Tai Yan Boat.

Li Fan hesitated for a moment, then unleashed the Formless Killing Machine towards his opponent.

Suddenly, his vision dimmed and a faint murmur echoed in his ears.

The scenery around him twisted and turned surreal.

It felt as if countless eyes were staring at Li Fan from the darkness.

Fortunately, the illusion-like scene arrived quickly and disappeared just as fast.

It all felt as though something had merely flashed in front of his eyes before everything returned to normal.

Li Fan knew instantly that it was the side effect of using the Formless Killing Machine beyond his level.

Formless Killing Machine, which works by imitating destiny.

As it borrowed from destiny, it naturally wasn’t without risk.

Even a mortal pretending to deliver the emperor’s decree can be punished by wiping out his entire family, let alone faking destiny.

The greater the gap in cultivation between him and the target of the Killing Machine, the easier it was for the Will of Heaven and Earth to detect him.

Fortunately, it seemed that as it was only a matter of crossing one major cultivation realm, the problem wasn’t too serious.

The Formless Killing Machine was initially silent after its release.

However, soon Li Fan felt a sudden breeze emerging in the world around him.

This wind kept revolving around the path that his opponent was taking, quickly forming into a tornado.

The tornado had a faintly visible blue light, like a gigantic dragon, roaring and rushing towards the adversary.

The opponent was caught off guard and got swallowed by the tornado.

At this moment, Li Fan also took the opportunity to speed up his escape.

Soon after, a loud rumbling sound came from behind.

The opponent seemed to have escaped the tornado and flew even faster in the direction of Li Fan.

The killing intent was stronger this time.

Just as he was about to get close to Li Fan, a giant crocodile shark leapt high from below the sea surface and swallowed the man in one gulp. The crocodile shark fell back into the sea, causing high splashes.

“Bang!”

Raging flames erupted from the sea.

The crocodile shark was burned to ashes, and the man flew out of the sea somewhat frantically and in a ragged state.

Sensing where Li Fan was, he pursued him even faster.

But every time he was about to approach Li Fan, he would encounter some sudden predicament.

As a result, despite them chasing and running, and even though his speed was much faster than Li Fan’s, he never managed to catch up with Li Fan.

Finally, Liuli Island was in sight.

The man cautiously surveyed his surroundings. Finding there were no more unexpected incidents, he let out a sigh of relief. With a serious expression, he was about to cast a Taoist Technique to kill Li Fan.

Suddenly, under the bright sunlight in the sky, a thunderbolt struck down.

It hit him squarely.

If not for a glow on his body at the critical moment that neutralized most of the damage, he would have been killed instantly.

Even so, the man was severely scorched, barely recognizable as human.

Seeing this, Li Fan hurriedly flew to the Great Array protecting the core of Liuli Island.

The man paused in mid-air for a while before he recovered.

In shock and fury, he shouted loudly, “He Zhenghao, come out and help me kill this little thief!”

A familiar voice replied from Liuli Island, “Wan Huafa? What happened to you?”

Li Fan, who was flying to Liuli Island, stopped in his tracks when he heard the two men’s conversation.

Seeing that he was about to be surrounded by the two men and had no escape, Li Fan secretly cursed.

Then he murmured quietly in his heart.

“[Real] ! “
