The black-clothed cultivator paused, his icy gaze sweeping over Li Fan and his companions before he spoke again: “Since each cultivator has unique experiences and states of mind, the illusions they see will vary.”

“Generally, they are grand scenes related to the Celestial Dharma Bearer of the past.”

“However, this phenomenon only occurs the first time.”

There was a tinge of regret in the black-clothed cultivator’s voice: “Once you’ve spent enough time here and have become accustomed to the aura of the Celestial Dharma Bearer. Seeing those illusions again become a luxury.”

Still in shock from the illusory realm, Han Yi and Xi Men Yue merely nodded in response to his words.

Li Fan, however, remained cautious, his gaze trained forward.

Whilst concealing his fear, he attempted to recapture the strange sense of familiarity from before.

The black-clothed cultivator took notice of their reactions but remained nonchalant.

He did not rush them, patiently waiting instead.

In his opinion, the astonishment and awe displayed by these newcomers were entirely normal.

As a “Guide,” he had long since grown accustomed to such responses.

After waiting for some time, he noticed that all three had gradually recovered from the effects of the illusory realm. Only then did he continue with his duties.

“Entrusted by the Supreme Immortal, I am to lead you to the Law Enforcement Hall.”

“Follow closely behind me and do not wander.”

“Although anyone able to enter here has already cleared identity verification and will generally not face any issues.”

“This place is, after all, the headquarters of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, a vital area. There are cultivators quietly guarding it at all times.”

“If you stray into prohibited areas and are caught or killed, no one will avenge you.”

The black-clothed cultivator cautioned, his voice cold.

Li Fan and his companions all nodded in understanding.

Following behind the black-clothed cultivator, Li Fan took the opportunity to observe their surroundings at the Immortal Alliance Headquarters.

In the endless void, numerous towering structures floated, their positions scattered throughout the celestial dome like stars.

Their current location was at the very bottom of the whole architectural complex.

Streams of silver light streaked across the sky overhead.

They shuttled between the suspended structures, and within the rays of light, faint shadows could be glimpsed.

He walked at a leisurely pace, occasionally encountering cultivators who appeared solemn and were in a hurry.

The suspended land beneath their feet appeared to serve merely as an exterior entrance and inspection point.

Apart from the plants and trees planted on either side of the path, no other structures were present.

In not much time, they arrived at the edge of the landmass.

Li Fan noticed that there seemed to be an unusual array technique inscribed on the ground ahead.

Silver line threads constantly moved within the array, each stepping into a cultivator.

Every time they did, a column of silver radiance would shoot towards the heavens, carrying them to different areas above.

At the front of the transfer array technique, a tall and sturdy cultivator stood guard.

This individual donned the standard Alliance of Thousands of Immortals’ black and yellow uniform. His penetrating gaze scrutinized every incoming and outgoing cultivator.

When it was Li Fan’s turn, the tall cultivator glanced at the black-clothed cultivator and gave a nod of acknowledgment.

Despite this, he still extended his hand to stop them.

The black-clothed cultivator didn’t take offense and took out the small circular mirror from earlier.

A beam of light shot out, landing on the tall cultivator.

Strangely, the light seemed to be absorbed by him. After it landed on his body, it disappeared instantly.

However, the tall cultivator’s eyes flashed with numerous fast-moving characters.

With that, he dropped his hand, no longer hindering them.

The black-clothed cultivator led Li Fan and his companions into the transfer array.

The tall middle-aged cultivator pointed at the array.

A line of silver light shot from his finger into the ground’s transfer array.

After moving around several times, it swelled to several times its size.

Then it carried Li Fan and the others into the sky.

In an instant, Li Fan’s body seemed to be transformed into light, moving at an unbelievable speed through this space.

Strangely enough, he didn’t feel any discomfort from the high-speed movement.

The surroundings flew past rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, the floating land where they had been before had shrunk to the size of a black dot.

The radiance continued to climb, passing one floating land after another.

With sharp eyes, Li Fan even managed to make out the characteristic sloping metallic cubic building of the Array Strategy Hall in a particular area.

Not much time had passed when a shadow loomed over their heads.

The light bearing Li Fan and his companions plummeted into it.

With a flash before his eyes, Li Fan morphed from a shape of light back into his human form.

Once again standing on land, Li Fan looked ahead and saw a massive black stele not too far off.

There was only one broad avenue that lead straight to the stele.

No plants or decorations of any kind existed on either side of the road.

Compared to the other floating lands they had seen before, this place seemed relatively simple and austere.

The black-clothed cultivator led the way down the straight avenue in silence.

The road appeared to be made of some greenish stone. As Li Fan walked on it, he was startled to discover that the spiritual energy inside his body had suddenly settled into silence.

It was as though it had lost its vitality, and despite Li Fan’s efforts to mobilize it, he could not stir it at all.

As a result, his Early Stage Golden Core clone, while walking on this road, was no different from a mortal.

Both Han Yi and Xi Men Yue evidently also noticed this phenomenon.

The three of them exchanged looks of horror but didn’t dare to discuss it further, rushing to keep up with the black-clothed cultivator who was already far ahead.

The towering black stele appeared close, nestled at the end of the straight avenue.

However, as Li Fan and the others moved laboriously along the road, every step a slow trudge, the road seemed to stretch on endlessly.

In Li Fan’s perception, it felt as though they had taken nearly half a day to reach the end, drained of all energy.

During this process, they had encountered cultivators leaving from the black stele.

They seemed unaffected and could still fly low over the straight avenue.

“It must be a restriction for outsiders. The members of the Law Enforcement Hall seem to be able to use a secret technique to prevent the spiritual energy within their bodies from becoming dormant,” Li Fan surmised inwardly.

Standing at the foot of the black stele, Li Fan could truly perceive its enormity.

The loftiness was beyond his field of view and was entirely black, as though filled with deep mysteries.

What puzzled Li Fan was that the whole stele seemed to be hewn from a single piece.

No entrances could be seen.

At this point, the black-clothed cultivator who had led them there finally spoke.

“Alright, here we are. Present your [Jade Tablets of Technique Presentation].”

At his words, Li Fan and his companions each took out the exquisite jade tablet.

The seven-colored radiance from the jade tablets shone on the black stele, transforming the black surface into a riot of colors.

The colors diffused, and the solid stone seemed to dissolve in the vibrant hues.

A seven-colored passage appeared in the stele.

“You can go in. Without a [Jade Tablet of Technique Presentation], I cannot enter the Law Enforcement Hall,” said the black-cllothed cultivator.
