Chapter 624: Chapter 596 Meeting the Peerless Doctor Again
The Xuan Huang Heart-Refining Spell activated on its own, and after a few breaths, even the injuries to his spiritual consciousness had vanished.
“Phew…”
“He handled my [Invisible Malice] effortlessly, not to mention the psychic damage he inflicted on me from such a distance.”
“Had it not been for the Worry-Free Celestial Statue protecting me, my spirit consciousness could have suffered serious harm.”
Li Fan looked at the Manifested World Celestial Lord Statue in his hand, and after it emitted a faint white light, it seemed to dissolve and vanished without a trace.
“Old Fisherman, mastering the Unity-Path is indeed horrific.”
Although Li Fan was surprised, a spark of excitement flashed in his eyes.
He hadn’t expected things to proceed so smoothly.
When he noticed that Han Yi was heading deep into the hinterlands of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals in a stupefied manner and had stopped in Luoyan State.
Li Fan already had a vague sense of what was about to happen.
Though he had used the Mistwater Mirage Technique to implant the Cyan Wind Sword Trap and the tracks of the Old Fisherman over the years into his mind, intending to disclose the news about the sword through him.
In Li Fan’s expectations, Han Yi would need additional guidance to find the Old Fisherman in the vast multitude of states.
However, it might be Heaven’s Fortune, or perhaps some other factors were influencing from behind.
The pace of Han Yi’s actions was unexpectedly quick for Li Fan.
Almost without any detours, he directly located the Old Fisherman’s position.
The Old Fisherman is a great opportunity that everyone shares.
Therefore, the cultivators in the hinterland of the Thousand Immortals Alliance would spontaneously search for his tracks.
Once discovered, they would quickly spread the news.
This so-called mutual help is a virtue.
Typically, the Fisherman stays in the same area for a period, so his general whereabouts can be verified.
The reincarnated Li Fan was naturally well aware of this.
Thus, after witnessing the Old Fisherman through the Heavenly-Earthly View, Li Fan was even more delighted.
His plan to instigate the triple confrontation between the Fisherman, the Celestial Doctor, and the Scholar was about to succeed.
When he used the Mistwater Mirage Technique to implant related thoughts into Han Yi’s mind, he left a strand of “The Law of Heavenly Fiend” within him.
Even though it was a presence incredibly faint and hard for Li Fan himself to notice, he believed that the Old Fisherman would not overlook it if made to erupt under his deliberate manipulation.
By then, he could naturally locate the Cyan Wind Sword Trap through Han Yi’s memories.
Similarly, the Fisherman could also see the scene of the Celestial Doctor appearing in the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters in Han Yi’s mind.
Whether it be the Scholar or the Fisherman,
Li Fan was confident that they both harbored a deep-seated hatred towards the Celestial Doctor.
After retrieving the Heavenly Slayer Sword and regaining some strength, giving the Celestial Doctor another battle should definitely add to his trouble.
The plan was promising.
But a problem occurred with Han Yi.
Although the Fisherman appeared in front of him more than ten times, he couldn’t detect anything unusual about him.
This had Li Fan, who had been tailing behind, shaking his head incessantly.
However, he certainly wouldn’t risk his own life, so he could only continue to observe from a safe distance with patience.
Fortunately, although the process deviated slightly, the result eventually followed the predetermined course.
When Han Yi, with his reasoning gone, charged at the Old Fisherman,
Even Li Fan couldn’t help but secretly applaud his bravery.
However, when the Old Fisherman looked up, it gave him a feeling that things were about to go wrong.
…”
“Luckily, I was well prepared and I’m no longer the insignificant Foundation Establishment cultivator I once was.”
After taking a deep breath to restore his spirits, Li Fan began to contemplate his next move.
“Assuming everything goes as expected, the Fisherman should now be aware of the various things happening in the Misthaven Ocean.”
“He should be on his way there now.”
“When immortals fight, mortals suffer the consequences. I’d better not join in.”
A thought crossed Li Fan’s mind, and his attention immediately focused again on his incarnation, Zhou Qingang.
At this time, the turbulence of the Misthaven Ocean gradually subsided. Most of the cultivators were using the majority of their energy on cultivation and the study of the newly exchanged techniques.
The Governance Hall was unusually idle.
Unnoticed by anyone, Li Fan, controlling his avatar, Zhou Qingang, made his way to the outskirts of the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters.
At the moment, it was vast and deserted, with only a few cultivators occasionally entering and exiting together.
Li Fan pondered for a moment and did not rush into the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters, instead, he began to wait patiently.
Three days later.
A sudden gust of wind stirred, causing his clothes to flutter.
Li Fan lifted his gaze to the sky.
He extended his hand and felt the wind growing stronger.
A sense of excitement arose in Li Fan’s heart.
“The Fisherman has assumed his position. Will the master appear?”
Based on what he had previously seen, Li Fan was almost certain that the answer was yes.
The mere aura emitted by the Celestial Doctor’s statue was enough to attract the master.
Moreover, in this world, there was the familiar figure of the Fisherman.
There’s no reason why the master wouldn’t come!
Furthermore, at this point in time, it was not far from when the master would normally appear.
Therefore, Li Fan concluded that the plan for this life had succeeded!
“Next, it’s about finding a good spot for observation.”
Li Fan took out a gourd of fine wine from his storage ring and patted it with a smile.
He then entered the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters.
After completing three trials at lightning speed, Li Fan did not leave.
Instead, he started chatting idly with elder brother Qin, wine in hand, as they waited patiently.
As time ticked by, elder brother Qin, of course, didn’t know what boredom was.
However, the scene that Li Fan had been waiting for hadn’t arrived yet.
As a result, he became slightly anxious.
“Hehe, junior brother, you are really dishonest. Pretending to have drinks with me, but actually being absent-minded!”
“Spit it out, did you take a liking to one of our sisters? Don’t worry, tell me all about it.”
“If it’s suitable, I can even speak on your behalf!”
“Of course, it also can be a senior sister!”
After gulping down a mouthful of wine, elder brother Qin burst into a fit of laughter, half-drunk half-awake.
As Li Fan was about to respond, he suddenly found that the whole world was shaking violently.
Elder brother Qin, who was drinking, suddenly froze, then started to tremble uncontrollably.
“Celestial Doctor…”
His voice was no longer filled with drunkenness and instead was filled with resentment.
Boom!
The illusions shattered layer by layer. When Li Fan reappeared outside the gate of the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters, the first thing he noticed
was the standoff between the Fisherman and the Celestial Doctor.
Unlike his past life, when these cultivators saw the Celestial Doctor in the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters, the groans of resentment and howls of agony were much subdued.
Seemingly, there was something that they were wary of, even though their hearts were filled with resentment, they didn’t dare to vent out their angst uninhibitedly.
The Fisherman was looking at the Celestial Doctor, the Black Evil Aura on his body was boiling and surging,
but the Heavenly Slayer Sword Fragment in his hand was nowhere to be found.
The Fisherman remained silent, but the intent to kill in his eyes was already clear.
He didn’t understand why, he hadn’t made a move yet.
On the contrary, the expression of the Celestial Doctor seemed a bit less severe.
He revealed a somewhat odd expression, “This is interesting.”
“Sky Extermination, have you regained your memory?”
The Celestial Doctor asked.
