“Biological age: 882/899.”
Li Fan glanced at the actual panel while continuing to work on setting up the array technique.
Continuous self-forgetting labor was not without cost.
After Li Fan extricated himself from the array laying process in which he was deeply engrossed as if he had just experienced an enlightenment.
A sense of unbearable weakness welled up in his heart.
His biological age was growing rapidly under extreme pressure.
Now, Li Fan had truly reached the end of his life.
“It’s time for a break.”
This thought involuntarily popped up in his spirit consciousness.
But immediately, he used it as the primary ingredient for his [Reverse Cultivation Dao Heart].
He fiercely suppressed any feelings of slackness and fatigue.
“If I can’t be harsh on myself, how can I seek transcendence in this dangerous Immortal Cultivation World?”
Li Fan said to himself, then shook off his spirits, forcing his ageing self to burn the last moments of his life and continue the work on the array technique.
The expressions and reactions of Yan Hang and the others below were all within Li Fan’s expectations.
Actually, there was no need for them to report.
Li Fan had already explained his current physical condition when he applied to Qi Buyi for cross-regional work using the Heaven Oversight Chronicles.
After failing to persuade him, Qi Buyi agreed to Li Fan’s request decisively.
“In theory, the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals should prolong my life. But nothing is absolute, I also have to be prepared for the Immortal Alliance not playing by the rules.”
“Fortunately, I have enough contribution points left and one Ethernal Life Fruit remaining. When necessary, whether buying or exchanging, I can find some longevity items. It will buy me some time for my worldly affairs.”
The report submitted by Yan Hang and others sank like a stone in the sea, without causing a ripple.
This made the five-man team confused and disappointed at the same time.
In contrast, Li Fan himself seemed to be unaffected, which made them admire him even more.
In this way, in a calm manner, another half a year passed.
One day, a sudden change occurred in the peaceful Water Cave Heaven.
The azure water world started shaking violently without any warning.
Caught off guard, Li Fan’s array set up process was forced to a halt.
Subconsciously wanting to observe what happened around him, he only felt as if the entire Heaven and Earth were rotating, making him feel dizzy and unable to do so.
Fortunately, the reactions of Yan Hang and the others were quite swift.
The moment the sudden change occurred, they flew to Li Fan’s side, took out various defensive Magic Treasures, and protected him in the center.
In the protection shield formed by rays of radiance, the impact of the external changes was somewhat isolated.
Only then did Li Fan get a clear view of what was happening in the Water Attribute Cave Heaven.
The straight line where water and wood meet was now twisted like waves, as if it was under enormous pressure.
The peaceful water surface that has been unchanged for ten thousand years was creating huge waves.
Reaching up to the sky, it was connected with the invading Wood Attribute Cave Heaven above.
In the sound of huge friction, like the roaring of thunder, the overhanging giant tree above their heads seemed even closer.
The pointed connected branches kept extending downwards, becoming ragged and desolate once they touched the Water Cave Heaven.
But they only slowed down their growth slightly, still firmly piercing the boundary between the two realms.
The originally pure and peaceful Water Attribute Spiritual Energy in the world was gradually becoming violent.
Li Fan and others watched the changes taking place in the Cave Heaven with grave expressions.
Heaven Oversight Chronicles, however, had already received a warning from Qi Buyi.
“Don’t panic, everyone, this is an indication of the further development of [Unity of Five Elements].”
“It’s faster than we anticipated. It seems we all need to speed up our progress.”
“Be careful of the possible changes when the two realms intersect. Report any special situations immediately.”
Once the change started, there was no stopping it.
However, the adaptability of humans is truly terrifying.
Soon, Li Fan and others got used to working amidst occasional giant waves and the rumbling sound of friction.
For them, these disturbances at most affected their state of mind but did not pose a real threat.
The real danger came from the strange creatures created during the fusion process of the wood and water realms.
They were monsters formed by the changes of water and wood attributes, created when debris from the overhanging giant tree fell into the Water Cave Heaven.
Their shapes varied, and their bodies were all made of withered wood.
The clear blue water flowed non-stop on the wooden bodies, like blood visible on the surface.
They were extremely aggressive and had a keen sense of cultivators’ aura.
Even if they were tens of thousands of miles away, they would automatically seek and attack the nearest cultivator.
The Alliance of Thousands of Immortals had tried many approaches, but so far, it had not found a suitable solution.
The fight was thus inevitable.
The bodies of these monsters might look like dry wood, but their texture was surprisingly hard.
Even a full-strength attack by a Nascent Soul cultivator could only leave a shallow scar on them.
Fortunately, their fighting styles were rather crude and their numbers relatively small.
The side of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals often moved in groups of several people.
Using their advantage in numbers and superior equipment to suppress the monsters, they managed to kill the monsters without much danger after spending some time.
After every battle, Yan Hang and others would meticulously report the fighting process through the Heaven Oversight Chronicles.
After collecting numerous data, the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals also sorted out the tricks to fight these monsters and pushed them to every cultivator.
The monsters that appeared in each Cave Heaven varied due to the different fusion attributes.
The monsters they encountered, which were a fusion of wood and water with wood dominating, were named “Fallen Wood”.
There were two most effective techniques to deal with Fallen Wood.
One was the Fire Attribute Technique. Under the burning of raging flames, wood gets burnt and water boils, turning Fallen Wood into flying ashes.
The second was the Art of Divisiveness.
It would completely separate the flowing blue water on the surface of Fallen Wood from its main body.
The Fallen Wood would then self-destruct, transforming from a terrifyingly fierce monster back into pure Wood-Water Qi in a blink of an eye.
The Art of Divisiveness was not only useful against Fallen Wood but also excelled in dealing with other monsters of mixed attributes.
Unfortunately, it was quite rare, with only a handful of cultivators mastering it.
Everyone else had to rely on conventional techniques of various attributes to cope.
Having concluded the fighting strategies, the cultivators were more at ease when facing the monsters that appeared in the Cave Heaven.
Unfortunately, most cultivators were still worried.
On this day, another piece of dry wood debris fell, turning into an incomplete, man-beast-like monster and launched an attack on Li Fan and his group.
Soon enough, Yan Hang’s five-man team went to meet it.
Li Fan continued to lay out the array while observing the battle between the two sides.
“Compared to the first one we saw, the way the Fallen Woods fought and their skills have improved significantly.”
“These individual units separated from the overhanging giant tree seem to have a collective consciousness.”
Looking at the tense battle scene not far away, Li Fan was secretly shocked.
“This is just a fusion of wood and water. If a few more attributes were added to the mix, wouldn’t the monsters become even more powerful?”
