Chapter 800: 763 Chapter The One Called Little Celestial Doctor
But unlike Li Fan, the Divine Technique Wang Wan comprehended should not be too complicated.
At the very least, Wang Wan was receiving the data with utmost calm.
The black lines that made up his lower body didn’t even show the slightest sign of floating.
Not to mention leaving his body.
“Could it be that I was lucky enough to hit the jackpot?” A trace of shade flashed in Li Fan’s eyes.
“This Wang Wan, it seems, is not the first time he has come here to deduce Divine Techniques with the aid of the Tianxuan Mirror. Perhaps I can ask him about it.”
Having completed the deduction of the Divine Technique, Li Fan was no longer connected to the black lines that linked him to the platform below.
However, the countdown was still ongoing, so he had not been expelled from this space yet.
Therefore, Li Fan did not hurry to leave and patiently waited while observing the two people beside him.
Time slowly passed by, and soon less than an hour remained.
Deng Mingxi, who had delayed making a choice, seemed to have grown anxious.
She appeared somewhat helpless and eventually seemed to make a decision she was not pleased with.
At this moment, Wang Wan, like Li Fan, had completed his comprehension of the Divine Technique.
The lines connecting his feet broke off as he opened his eyes.
Noticing Li Fan’s gaze, Wang Wan appeared somewhat surprised.
But since communication was impossible here, he only gestured with his eyes before turning them back to Deng Mingxi.
After observing for a while, he shook his head slightly.
The countdown reached zero.
A beam of seven-colored radiance shone down from above.
The black and white lines gradually faded, and the surrounding space began to come to life.
In a daze, the sights before them blurred.
In the blink of an eye, Li Fan and the others found themselves back on the Lotus Stone Mountain outside Tianquan Province without realizing it.
Deng Mingxi released a burst of energy, viciously chopping at the mountainside not far away.
It seemed she was venting the anger in her heart.
Yet this mountain was not like ordinary stone mountains—extraordinarily hard.
Deng Mingxi couldn’t even make a crack in it.
Her eyes involuntarily brimmed with tears of frustration.
“Young girl, greed leads to loss,” Wang Wan sighed upon seeing this.
Under Li Fan’s probing inquiries, he slowly learned the somewhat unusual reason for the [Art of the Boundless Spiritual Abyss] from the other party.
It turned out that the Mystical Tree that the Tianxuan Mirror initially generated in a cultivator’s spirit consciousness was not something all cultivators could fully grasp.
Because it contained too many branches, ordinary cultivators simply could not know them all.
They could only pick based on luck.
Like Deng Mingxi, who was dazzled by too many choices, she delayed the time for comprehension.
“It’s okay, don’t be too disheartened, you are still young. Just come back in the next century. When I first came here, I was like you, always wanting to pick the most suitable and powerful Divine Technique from that Mystical Tree. In the end, I wasted a precious opportunity for nothing,” Wang Wan continued to comfort Deng Mingxi as she remained unable to let go.
Deng Mingxi said with regret, “It’s all because my brother secretly told me on the way here that the Tianxuan Mirror would assess a cultivator’s potential based on their overview of the Mystical Tree.”
“The more one sees, the greater the potential. When infusing the Divine Technique, the upper limit of the technique’s power is also higher.”
“I just thought to see as much as I could…”
The more Deng Mingxi spoke, the more wronged she felt, as if she was about to cry out loud.
“This older brother of yours might not have the best intentions,” Li Fan thought to himself.
“What did you say!” Deng Mingxi suddenly froze, her gaze snapping to Li Fan.
“Hm?” Li Fan’s expression changed.
“What you just thought, what does it mean?” Deng Mingxi stared intensely at Li Fan, her tone somewhat aggressive.
Li Fan completely reined in his thoughts and squinted his eyes, “Deng, my friend, I don’t understand what you mean.”
“Don’t play dumb with me, I can sense other people’s thoughts. Especially when it comes to me!” Deng Mingxi’s anger intensified seeing Li Fan feigning ignorance.
“Just now, you clearly thought my brother had ill intentions. What does that mean?”
“I sensed it very clearly, when Brother Qingyu secretly told me the secret, he was indeed full of concern for me,” Deng Mingxi declared righteously.
“This young girl, truly naive about the world,” Li Fan once again deliberately thought.
As expected, Deng Mingxi, who picked up on Li Fan’s thoughts, had her expression turn even redder.
“She can actually sense other people’s thoughts,” Li Fan was secretly shocked.
Regathering his thoughts and not wanting to tease the young girl any longer, he began to explain out loud.
“Your so-called Brother Qingyu, from the sound of it, is very close to you. Thus, he must be well aware of the state of your cultivation. How could he not know whether you have the capacity to fully utilize the Mystical Tree’s Divine Sense?”
“If he truly had your best interests at heart, he would never have told you about this. He would have let you peacefully choose a Divine Technique that suited you,” Li Fan continued.
“But instead, he pretended to care for your well-being and let it slip to you,” Li Fan sneered.
“This is deliberately to provoke your greed, making you return from this trip empty-handed!”
“As for the thoughts you sensed from others…”
“If he was not aware of your ability beforehand and was unprepared, then perhaps what you sensed might have been true.”
“But obviously he knows about your ability to read minds, and therefore, what you sense can’t really prove anything,” Li Fan concluded.
Deng Mingxi, upon hearing this, was about to object.
But she suddenly froze, as she sensed an intense sense of care and pity from Li Fan’s mind.
It was so passionate and straightforward, something she had never experienced before in her life.
Deng Mingxi instantly became flushed.
Stamping her foot, she was overwhelmed with shyness. She dared not look at Li Fan any longer and turned to fly away.
“Hmph,” Li Fan chuckled.
“If possible, my friend, you might want to leave Tianquan Province for a while,” Wang Wan, who had witnessed everything, couldn’t help but speak up in warning.
“Although it was an unintentional slip, you did reveal Deng Qingyu’s actions to that young girl.”
“That person is petty and always seeks revenge for the slightest grievances…” Wang Wan merely intended to warn Li Fan with good intentions.
Li Fan expressed his thanks with a gesture, “Oh? This Deng Family, how does it compare with the Xuan Family?”
“Xuan…” Wang Wan first paused, then his expression changed dramatically, “You are…?”
“I am a mid-level guest official of the Xuan Family,” said Li Fan casually.
“In that case, I have spoken out of turn. The Deng Family juniors…” Wang Wan faltered.
He quickly apologized to Li Fan.
“No harm done. You were just kindly offering a reminder,” Li Fan said indifferently. After taking down the contact information of the other party, he escaped by flight.
During the flight, Li Fan felt somewhat fortunate.
“I never expected, after all these days, to come across another cultivator who can read minds like the Celestial Doctor.”
“Thankfully it’s just an innocent child. Otherwise, I might have been in trouble again.”
