Chapter 1099 Seeking Opportunities in the Dark

Chapter 1099 Seeking Opportunities in the Dark

"The more frequent the request for the power of darkness, the more crevices it will cause. This increases the possibility of darkness invading."

Li Fan analyzed the characteristics of the power of darkness calmly.

It can be imagined that if the mysterious power that fixed the dark ocean did not exist, the Xuanhuang Realm would have long been eroded by the dark tide.

"The existence of the Fairyland has created the dark ocean. Then what is it, under the circumstances where people are unaware, that conceals this crisis invisibly?"

Thinking back to Moru Bin's desperate attempt to enter the dark realm, Li Fan could almost be certain that something related to the Xuantian King existed there.

Or it could be his residual power.

Or...

It is he himself.

Three young descendants were selected from the dark tribe to teach them the ritual of communicating with the power of darkness.

Li Fan, along with the chief of the dark tribe and about a dozen strong members of the tribe, left the Spirit Wood Realm.

The existence of the dark tide would lead to the invasion of the power of darkness. So Li Fan naturally would not hold the ceremony in his own home.

Fortunately, he knew of quite a few ownerless small worlds.

Half a day later, Li Fan chose a suitable one and sneaked into it.

This small world had no ground.

There were only continuous underground caves. The only source of light was the occasional glow moss that grew on the cave walls.

It was quite suitable for the dark tribe to live in.

At Fang Zaiji's urging, the leader of the dark tribe began the ritual of opening the passage to the dark realm.

After that, Li Fan ordered him to lead the way.

Li Fan himself, along with Tianyang, Qiaogong Jushi, Liu Ruchen, and Fang Zaiji, held hands tightly and followed behind.

Once again entering the boundless dark world.

Li Fan had already adapted to many things.

Qiaogong and others, on the other hand, were obviously tense and frightened.

Even though they had heard about it before and had been mentally prepared in advance.

But the feeling of being there was still hard to shake off.

The group communicated with their divine consciousness.

"Can you sense the presence of anyone from the Wanxian Alliance here?"

Li Fan asked the leader of the dark tribe.

He gave a negative response.

"The power of darkness is too deep. Even we, who have lived here for a long time, find it difficult to see things clearly. Besides, I haven't been home for a long time. Please let me adapt again..."

Upon hearing this, Li Fan immediately stared at him warily.

Fortunately, it was just his overthinking.

After a while, the leader of the dark tribe finally vaguely identified the direction.

"Follow me. Not far away is where we used to live. If the people of the Wanxian Alliance are stationed here, they will definitely choose that place."

After walking in the darkness for who knows how long, the leader of the dark tribe suddenly came to a halt.

"Sure enough, there are people, and quite a few of them. The dark sea has been affected, and it has sent out chaotic fluctuations," he explained to Li Fan and the others, his tone full of hatred.

At this point, Li Fan finally noticed.

The inexplicable movement he felt from Moru Bin's body the last time he entered had disappeared.

And above the darkness, the position could not be discerned.

"It seems that we can only search for clues from the Wanxian Alliance's residence."

Li Fan thought to himself.

"How many people are there inside?"

The leader of the dark tribe sensed for a moment.

"It should be around five people. In terms of strength, it's similar to this one..." He referred to Liu Ruchen.

"You can actually distinguish our strength?" Fang Zaiji was curious.

"Outside, of course, it's impossible. But in this dark sea, it's easy for us, the dark tribe, to do so," the leader of the dark tribe said proudly.

"Just like different objects of different weights causing different changes when placed in water. He should be able to discern based on this," Qiaogong Jushi explained, looking around the endless darkness.

Fang Zaiji suddenly understood.

"Can you see what the people of the Wanxian Alliance are doing here?" Li Fan frowned and asked.

"We need to get closer," the leader of the dark tribe requested after some thought. "Don't force it. It's not the time to confront the Wanxian Alliance head-on."

Having fought against the Wanxian Alliance before, the leader of the dark tribe naturally understood the terrifying strength of the other party.

Understanding this, he gradually moved closer to the front.

"This is..."

"How dare they!"

The emotions of the leader of the dark tribe suddenly fluctuated greatly.

Fortunately, being in the dark sea, they were not discovered by the people of the Wanxian Alliance.

The leader of the dark tribe shared the images he had sensed.

Several white figures formed a circle.

In their midst, there seemed to be a small vortex formed by the power of darkness.

The vortex was very small, no bigger than a palm.

The appearance was also quite strange, with the center of the vortex pointing upwards, the opposite of what is commonly seen in everyday life.

But the several Wanxian Alliance joint cultivation practitioners guarding it seemed very nervous.

"What is this?" Fang Zaiji asked in confusion.

"They are stealing the great power of darkness!" the leader of the dark tribe gritted his teeth.

Upon hearing this, Li Fan and the others were shocked.

"Even though there are limitations to the power of the dark sea, it cannot stop these despicable thieves!" the leader of the dark tribe wanted to rush over to stop the Wanxian Alliance from doing such a thing.

Fortunately, he still had some sense, and it was just talk, he didn't really act on it.

"What do you think?" Li Fan asked the others, looking at the images in his mind.

"The power of darkness is deviating from the fairyland. Obviously, the Wanxian Alliance is not satisfied with just infiltrating during the tide period, they want to extract the power of darkness on a large scale."

"It seems that in the end, they couldn't resist the temptation to leave the fairyland."

Upon receiving the information shared by Li Fan, Liu Ruchen couldn't help but sigh.

"I wonder by what means they created this vortex. It can't be that they used a small world specifically to attract the power of darkness..." Fang Zaiji said casually.

As soon as the words left his mouth, he froze.

"Well, it's not impossible. It's just a small world of no special value. If it can attract such a huge power of darkness, it's worth destroying," Qiaogong Jushi said confidently.

"Master, maybe we can also emulate the Wanxian Alliance," he even suggested to Li Fan.

"I have a feeling that combining this power of darkness with the essence of source power, and using it on the immortal puppet, might be able to further enhance it and create a true immortal puppet," Qiaogong Jushi's tone was tinged with a hint of fanaticism.

Although Li Fan had the same idea, he did not immediately agree, instead, he asked the leader of the dark tribe if there were any remains of the bodies of fallen cultivators that could be sensed in the vicinity.

"Huh? If you hadn't said anything, I almost wouldn't have been able to sense it."

"But it doesn't seem to be a body."

"It seems more like an empty shell."
