Mortals cultivate immortality, and their IQ is playing with their heartbeats

#603 - tame

Hearing this, the Gongsun Clan Leader sneered, full of disbelief: "That's impossible! The spatial barriers there are incredibly sturdy, even powerful cultivators would find it difficult to penetrate.

Moreover, the flow of time inside is completely different from the outside world. He, a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, wouldn't be able to survive for forty years, let alone four. Four years would be enough to exhaust all his resources, not to mention advancing to a realm sufficient to escape."

However, Gongsun Haiming felt a faint unease in his heart.

They didn't know that Li Chengfeng had not only passed the first level but had also accidentally entered the second, where the flow of time was even more astonishing. Four years outside were equivalent to four hundred years inside.

During this long period, Li Chengfeng not only survived but also seized opportunities to successfully advance to the Nascent Soul stage. His strength greatly increased, and he had already become a force to be reckoned with.

Gongsun Haiming pondered for a moment, then slowly nodded, muttering to himself: "Perhaps I'm overthinking it. How could Li Chengfeng escape from that desperate situation? Even a powerhouse whose cultivation has reached the Half-Step God Transformation stage would face a narrow escape from death if they stepped into that place, let alone his mere late-stage Core Formation strength.

This plan was originally designed for the Supreme Commander of the Xuan Guang Continent, but it suddenly shifted to Li Chengfeng. Bei Hai's intentions are perplexing.

Could it be that they believe Li Chengfeng's potential threat already surpasses that of the Xuan Guang Continent? But orders are like mountains; we can only obey."

He coughed lightly and continued, "This Li Chengfeng's potential is too terrifying. If we let him grow, he will inevitably become a great threat to the Gongsun family.

Therefore, we will spare no expense to initiate that plan.

Now, a mysterious figure has emerged out of nowhere, and their identity is a mystery. Should we request instructions from headquarters to investigate whether they originate from Bei Hai or are a new enemy sent by Bei Hai?"

Upon hearing this, the Clan Head's expression turned solemn, and he nodded, "Very well, I will contact my friends in Bei Hai and try to gather information through them to see if it's related to Bei Hai or if it involves the movements of the Evil Dragon Clan.

As for us, we cannot sit idly by and wait for death; we must remain vigilant."

On the other side, Li Chengfeng had already quietly entered the Life Realm space, and this exploration had brought him a bountiful harvest.

Those inferior treasures and spirit stones were like dust to him, casually tossed aside.

Pills, spiritual herbs, and spiritual medicines – he carefully identified and categorized them, storing them away and entrusting them to technical personnel skilled in this area for processing, decomposition, and extraction, ultimately delivering them to Loulan for cultivation.

Loulan, this peculiar spiritual plant, was not only steadily advancing towards a higher realm itself but also controlled a group of puppets dedicated to managing the medicinal fields, making the efficiency of spiritual medicine cultivation soar beyond measure.

When Li Chengfeng picked up a seemingly ordinary storage ring, his expression suddenly changed. This ring was definitely not Gongsun Haining's; it was engraved with complex and exquisite patterns, revealing an extraordinary aura.

Upon touching it, the power seemingly contained within the ring stirred restlessly, as if it could unleash astonishing power at any moment.

Li Chengfeng felt a chill in his heart, knowing that the treasures hidden within this ring must be extraordinary, priceless, or even more valuable.

Within the mysterious restriction, a self-destructing type of seal lay dormant like a sleeping dragon. Ordinary people would be destroyed upon touching it, but to Li Chengfeng, it was merely a paper barrier.

His understanding of formations had quietly rivaled those legendary formation masters. Every strand of his thoughts could precisely penetrate the complex array patterns.

This mirror-based seal was ingeniously designed, leaving one in awe.

Lightly probing it with divine sense would be no different from awakening a sleeping beast, instantly triggering a chain reaction that would destroy it without a trace.

However, Li Chengfeng took a different approach. His eyes suddenly opened wide, and the Yin-Yang Heavenly Curtain unfolded with a boom, like the first light of dawn, gently yet firmly falling upon the ring.

Using his eyes as swords and his spirit as a guide, he made his first attempt to use the power of his gaze to gently yet firmly dissolve the shackles of imprisonment.

The Gongsun family, confident that this unparalleled seal could protect the secrets within the ring, never expected that there would be a prodigy like Li Chengfeng in the world.

He had cultivated the Yin-Yang Heavenly Eyes, and everything within his gaze could be discerned, including seals.

As his gaze slowly moved, the net woven from ninety-eight tiny, exquisitely designed seals gradually disintegrated, like spring snow quietly melting under the warm sun.

With a soft 'snap,' the ring opened in response, and an ancient mirror slid out leisurely, its mottled marks recording the vicissitudes of time and past glories.

Li Chengfeng's heart suddenly brightened, as if a flash of inspiration had struck. He gently beckoned, and the mirror, as if guided by an invisible thread, steadily landed in his palm.

On the mirror's surface, several ancient seal characters – "Yin-Yang Mirror" – were clearly visible, revealing an extraordinary aura.

But this Yin-Yang Mirror seemed unwilling to be bound and actually wanted to spread its wings and fly away, escaping this place.

Li Chengfeng's lips curled into a cold smile. Instantly, the space in front of him twisted, and the aura of chaos filled the air, with glimpses of the future faintly visible, like unfinished paintings.

He let out a soft shout, and under the Yin-Yang Heavenly Curtain, the Yin-Yang Immobilization Technique was suddenly activated. A beam of light flashed across the void like lightning, accurately hitting the Yin-Yang Mirror, firmly fixing it in place, unable to move.

By the time the Yin-Yang Mirror broke free from its restraints, it was already in a strange future scene, surrounded by unfinished fragments, with nowhere to escape.

And just then, a familiar figure suddenly appeared – Zhu Hai, who had now fully accepted his fate as a spirit and seemed to have found his own path in the cultivation of the future world.

Li Chengfeng looked at him, his heart filled with relief. After all, he had also tailored a unique set of forbidden attire for Zhu Hai.

This set of forbidden attire not only firmly bound Zhu Hai but also became Li Chengfeng's window to glimpse the mysteries of the future.

The future, that vast and boundless unknown realm, was like a surging river, constantly flowing, its end hidden deep in the clouds, far beyond reach.

Everyone's other shore is the goal they pursue. However, on this long journey, countless variables lie hidden like reefs, whether joyful or sorrowful, right or wrong, all require oneself to use wisdom as the rudder and courage as the sail to calculate and deduce in the unknown.

Because the future is unpredictable, the power to gain a foothold in it is particularly precious and powerful. At this moment, Li Chengfeng was immersed in this profound understanding of the Dao of the Future.

The Yin-Yang Mirror, this magical artifact that once thought highly of itself, never expected that it would stray into this river of time, sailing towards that distant shore of the future.

Although it possessed unique skills, even when injured, it was cunning and resourceful.

However, faced with this sudden change, it realized that the path back was far beyond reach, and it had no choice but to fight with its back to the water.

Therefore, the Yin-Yang Mirror flipped its surface, intending to launch a fatal blow against Zhu Hai with the art of Yin and Yang.

But Zhu Hai, as a wandering soul in the God Transformation realm, residing within the Myriad Poisonous Plant, was powerful beyond compare.

Faced with the Yin-Yang Mirror's offensive, he smiled indifferently and suddenly threw a punch. All that was seen was gray mist rising, like heavy dark clouds covering the sky and sun, completely engulfing the light of Yin and Yang.

This gray mist contained unfathomable power, and anyone who cast a spell with a slightly inferior realm or an unyielding will would be swallowed by it, and their spells would also become ineffective.
