Chapter 293: The Sentient Beings of Tianyu

Adhering to the principle of absolute non-waste, Li Fan's Dao Stones in his sea of consciousness were fully activated, and multi-threaded mode was once again initiated.

On the surface, it seemed that Li Fan was not cultivating.

In reality, he had already separated his spiritual consciousness, studying formations, reading the "Heavenly Doctor's Scripture," and cultivating to accumulate his foundation for the next tribulation.

Managing multiple tasks, everything proceeded in an orderly manner.

...

Playing with the silver token in his hand, Li Fan entered it with his spiritual consciousness, and a lot of information instantly appeared in his mind.

Its name was the "Universe Token," a tool made in conjunction with the Hanyu Mansion.

In addition to basic functions such as communication and storage, its most significant use was to manipulate the residences in the mansion.

The residences were divided into three different grades: high, medium, and low.

Different grades had different treatments.

What Li Fan received now belonged to the high grade.

"It should be based on the results of the previous test," Li Fan thought to himself.

Putting away the token, Li Fan opened the Heavenly Mirror.

He checked the information on recent hot events.

In addition to some major events affecting the entire Xuanhuang Realm, there were more hot topics from the surrounding regions.

Both the density of information and the number of interactions far exceeded those in the Congyun Sea.

Li Fan couldn't help but feel a sense of "prosperity."

His divine sense moved through various pieces of information.

"The remnants of the Chaoyuan Sect are showing signs of activity again, and this time even a Nascent Divinity cultivator fell inside. Fellow cultivators, it's better not to take risks!"

"Supreme Immortal Jicheng resigned from the position of overall commander of the Garrison Institute. It is rumored that he was severely hit by the opponent's demonic technique during the great battle where he infiltrated the Allied Daoists with the 'Virtual and Real Celestial Scheme.' His lifespan has greatly decreased, and he is too weak to oversee the overall situation anymore."

"In front of the 'Mortal-to-Divinity Wall' in Tianyunzhou, another cultivator has comprehended the Grand Dao, eventually reaching the realm of Five-Element Golden Core!"

"Wu Chier has been recently wandering near Tianquanzhou. Fellow cultivators, be cautious!"

"The old fisherman appeared in Xiaoxiang City, Tianzhuzhou yesterday, and is expected to stay for about seven days. Those seeking opportunities should hurry!"

...

"Old fisherman..." Li Fan showed interest and clicked on it.

It turned out that this old fisherman looked crazy and mad.

Dressed as a fisherman, his cultivation level was unknown.

He kept muttering to himself, saying he couldn't find his things.

His whereabouts were unpredictable, with records of him appearing in various states.

The so-called opportunity was just a matter of luck.

Show him your belongings, see if there are items he lost.

Generally, the old fisherman would shake his head repeatedly, saying that these were not his things.

However, occasionally, he would show interest in certain items and propose to exchange them.

The old fisherman was generous. The value of the techniques and treasures he brought out far exceeded what the cultivators offered.

Therefore, many cultivators wanted to try their luck and get some unknown items to gamble with.

Of course, there were also foolish cultivators who attempted to forcibly rob him.

But anyone who did so didn't survive.

"Quite interesting..."

"Unfortunately, once you enter this Hanyu Mansion, you can't leave until the closed training is over. Otherwise, I could join in the fun everywhere."

Reading this information, Li Fan couldn't help but feel regretful.

...

After practicing and adjusting in the small courtyard for a few days, Li Fan finally received a message from the Universe Token.

All personnel had arrived, and the formal training would officially start tomorrow.

At the same time, a set of white clothes and a shiny golden ball appeared in the Universe Token.

Li Fan exchanged the white clothes and patiently waited for tomorrow.

Chapter 294: The Tianxuan Soul-Locking Array

The next day, ripples appeared on the Universe Token, followed by a burst of light.

Wrapped in silver light, Li Fan arrived on a vast plain.

In the sky, wearing the same white clothes, there were unexpectedly more than a thousand people.

"As Zhang Zhiliang said before, there are three spots available for the training in the Congyun Sea region."

"Then there are more than three hundred regions just within the territory of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance?"

"No, perhaps some regions have several times more spots than the Congyun Sea."

"Even so, it's evident how vast the Xuanhuang Realm is."

While Li Fan was contemplating, the white-robed Jihong Dao, who had appeared earlier, quietly appeared above the crowd.

He scanned the crowd and said loudly, "I'm sure you already know the purpose of this training."

"It's to accelerate the spread of the Tianxuan Soul-Locking Array in our Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, so that enemies of the Five Elders will have nowhere to hide in front of us."

"Tianxuan Soul-Locking, its name, you must have heard countless times. But those who have truly seen it are probably not many."

"Today, let me show you first."

With Jihong Dao's words, an image of a mirror suddenly flashed above everyone's heads.

After that, three beams of light descended from the sky, locking onto three different positions on the plain below.

Seeing this scene, everyone was first stunned, then they focused their minds and sensed the locations where the light pillars were locked.

Li Fan frowned slightly because, no matter how he sensed it, there was nothing in those locations.

Judging by the expressions of the people around him, it was almost the same for everyone.

At this moment, Jihong Dao spoke again, "Surprised, right? Clearly, in perception, there is nothing there. But the Tianxuan Soul-Locking Array has marked it..."

His voice suddenly increased, "This is the Five Elders' 'Unity of Dao and Self' stealth technique. It is precisely with this technique that they can repeatedly trespass into our territory as if entering an uninhabited land."

"But now, with the birth of the Tianxuan Soul-Locking Array, all of this is in the past!"

Jihong Dao pointed lightly, and the three light pillars suddenly became brighter.

The air distorted, and in the locked positions, three cultivators with a battered appearance, bound by shackles, were revealed.

These three cultivators stared at Li Fan and the others in the sky with resentment.

But they couldn't move or speak.

They could only become teaching materials in this way.

"The basic principle of the Tianxuan Soul-Locking is the 'Soul Covenant' that every Five Elders' cultivator signs..."

Jihong Dao explained to the array masters from various regions present.

In order to show the difference in the divine souls of the Five Elders' cultivators, he even used a secret technique to forcibly extract the divine soul of one of them.

The light pillars in the world also followed the divine soul with a hint of golden light and moved continuously.

Describing the extraction of the divine soul is difficult to put into words.

Many young cultivators, seeing this scene, showed an unbearable expression.

Jihong Dao sneered, without speaking, just keeping their reactions in mind.

...

Time passed slowly during the lecture.

After explaining the basic structure of the Tianxuan Soul-Locking Array, Jihong Dao said, "The key to constructing the Tianxuan Soul-Locking lies in building an array hub that can distinguish the differences in divine souls."
