Chapter 532: Chapter 504: Where to Find the Immortal Sects
This communication talisman’s design is quite similar to the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals’.
Lu Fan solemnly stored it away, then led Li Fan – who seemed to be in a daze standing beside him – aboard the ‘Universal Virtue True Vessel’, bursting into the White Mist Barrier.
The surroundings were completely white, and even at high speed, it was impossible to discern anything visually.
Inside the vessel, Lu Fan had his eyes closed, seemingly sensing something.
Only when the ‘Universal Virtue True Vessel’ broke through the Element Devouring White Fog did he open his eyes full of excitement: “The decay of longevity has decreased from roughly fifteen days to just one day. It’s practically negligible now! It’s really worth the value!”
“With this thing, the White Mist Barrier can’t stop us cultivators anymore. From now on, even if the world is vast, we can go wherever we want without worrying about the loss of lifespan!”
Lu Fan couldn’t help but show some regret on his face: “It’s a pity that the principle of this thing was first discovered by us, the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, but it ended up being popularized by the Five Elders Organization!”
“Indeed, it’s a good thing. But we’ve wasted a lot of time, let’s hurry to the ‘One-Heart Immortal Sect’.” The puppet body with only a sliver of obsession left urged in a voice.
“Hehe, it seems you are in more of a hurry than me.” Lu Fan was stunned for a moment, then showed a knowing expression.
He immediately accelerated again, constantly heading north.
The territory of the Five Elders Organization, like the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, was also vast and sparsely populated.
Travelling on the road, it was often half a day before you encountered another cultivator. Even if you saw the light of another cultivator in the distance, both sides would intentionally avoid each other.
The thing that Lu Fan had been worried about, that monks from the Five Elders Organization would come to cause trouble, never happened.
So, they crossed over a dozen states safely and without incident. Then, after flying out of the White Mist Barrier again.
The Universal Virtue True Vessel suddenly lost control, plunging straight towards the ground.
Luckily, Lu Fan reacted in time, flew out of the vessel, and before it crashed, he retrieved it back into his storage ring.
“This place…”
He looked up at the sky, his eyebrows furrowed.
This region seemed a bit different from where they had been before.
It was hard to pinpoint what was different. But this strange feeling was crystal clear and unmistakably accurate.
“Is this the ‘One-Heart Immortal Sect’?” Li Fan was also looking around, his tone returning to its usual liveliness.
“Let’s find out more about the situation first,” Lu Fan suggested.
“Alright.” Li Fan nodded.
So, the two started travelling around Gazing Moon Province. Consistent with the overall layout of the Human Dao Sky Realm, the vast majority of the population lived in scattered towns, where cultivators and mortals dwelt separately.
But during the journey, both Li Fan and Lu Fan discovered something extraordinary.
The ‘One-Heart Immortal Sect’ was unusually…
Harmonious?
Strife and quarrels, which are quite common in human interaction, seemed to be totally absent here in Gazing Moon Province.
Even when doing business, there was no haggling between the buyer and seller.
All along the way, everyone was courteous and exceptionally friendly towards each other.
While these scenes might seem heartwarming and touching, they seemed somewhat eerie to outsiders like Li Fan.
Just to be safe, they also put on faces full of smiles, trying to fit in with the crowd.
Meanwhile, they secretly inquired about the real rumors of the ‘One-Heart Immortal Sect’.
In this land, this was no secret.
However, the answers they got from the mouths of many people left Li Fan and Lu Fan somewhat incredulous.
Everyone here knew from an early age that there were ‘Great Immortal Sects’ in the world.
They believed that the highest glory in their lives was to be able to join the ‘Great Immortal Sect’.
But where those sects were located, and how one could join, they were completely ignorant.
They were, however, deeply convinced of one thing.
As long as one’s “heart is sincere,” and as long as one is “outstanding enough,” they can gain the favor of the Lord Heavenly Venerable and be selected to join the Great Immortal Sect.
This kind of belief seemed too abstract.
Li Fan and Lu Fan felt somewhat puzzled.
After leaving Gazing Moon Province and travelling in other regions within ‘One-Heart Immortal Sect’ for over a month, they found that everyone’s words were astonishingly consistent.
Which inevitably made the two of them, who had been hoping all along, feel somewhat disappointed.
“Fellow Daoist Jiao, haven’t we demonstrated our sincerity by crossing dozens of states?”
In Chengcheng City of Canhong State, inside a tavern, Lu Fan finished his spiritual wine in one gulp, and asked somewhat gloomily to Li Fan.
Li Fan was dumbfounded and didn’t answer.
“Or, is our cultivation level insufficient to meet Sister Zhao’s selection criteria?”
Lu Fan muttered to himself with a lost look.
Although Li Fan was left with only a sliver of sentiment, he began to feel that something was wrong as he watched Lu Fan, whose sanity was slowly dissipating, and had witnessed his mental changes along the way.
At first, he set out on this journey with a nonchalant attitude, deciding to follow Li Fan.
With regards to the unrivaled beauty and extraordinary Sister Zhao, Lu Fan was mostly just teasing, not really admiring her that much.
After all, for cultivators, “beauty” is far less important than realm and cultivation level.
But since coming to the territory of the ‘One-Heart Immortal Sect’, a subtle change has taken place in Lu Fan.
He became more and more interested in “Sister Zhao” and the “Great Immortal Sect”.
The more he came into contact with and understood, the more he felt the “the more you desire but cannot obtain, the more you want to get” feeling, constantly plaguing him and making him can’t forget, and restless.
To the point of frantic obsession, he was almost losing himself.
On the contrary, this puppet body, which originally only had the obsession of “entering the One-Heart Immortal Sect”, was not greatly affected.
But Li Fan didn’t wake Lu Fan up.
It wasn’t that he didn’t cherish their friendship, but Li Fan clearly knew that such a gradual influence of the Power of Heavenly Venerable couldn’t be changed by a few words.
Maybe if he told Lu Fan about his changes, he’d be complacent.
Just when the two were sitting quietly opposite each other, one with a worried expression and the other with a blank face.
There was suddenly a burst of noise on the street outside.
“Wan Zailai from Canhong State, with Golden Core cultivation level, defeated thirty-six Nascent Soul monks from Yilu Province, finally attracted Lord Heavenly Venerable’s attention, and successfully entered the Immortal Sect!”
“No doubt he is the genius of our Canhong State, truly venting out our anger splendidly!”
“Haha, now the number of ‘Immortal Sect disciples’ in our Canhong State surpasses those in Yilu Province! Let’s see how they can show off now!”
…
The noise of discussion outside was endless, Li Fan and Lu Fan looked at each other, and immediately started to carefully inquire about the circumstances of the incident.
“I got it! If we do something unconventional, we will attract Sister Zhao… Lord Heavenly Venerable’s attention and be able to enter the Sect!”
Lu Fan suddenly realized.
