Li Fan found many Liuli Beads, which had not been completely digested, inside the stomach of the Exotic Dragon whale.
It must be the remnants after the Dragon whale swallowed a school of Liuli Fish.
“It seems that since I killed that giant Liuli Fish, the situation of the Liuli Fish colony is worrisome.” Li Fan pondered to himself.
Other than Liuli Beads, there were also half a piece of coral, a luminous fish bone, and other miscellaneous items.
Li Fan didn’t care if he recognized them or not, he packed them all.
In the end, Li Fan checked again to make sure he didn’t miss anything, and then he quietly left.
He returned safely to Ten Thousand Immortals Island without any incidents along the way.
After turning in the carcass of the Exotic Dragon whale, Li Fan exchanged everything he had gleaned from its stomach for contribution points.
A total of 320 points.
After an appraisal, the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals confirmed that the Dragon whale carcass Li Fan had turned in was the same one that had previously attacked the island.
Therefore, he received a task reward of 2000 points.
Together with the remaining 450 points, Li Fan now had 2770 contribution
points available.
“With so many contribution points, I should be able to choose a satisfactory Technique.”
Currently, Li Fan was missing a method to hide his aura for tracking others.
Such Techniques are relatively rare. However, for a Energy Refining Stage, 2770 contribution points are more than enough.
Li Fan began his selection in the Tianxuan Realm.
At this moment, in the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, the task of hunting down the Exotic Dragon whale that had once stumped many Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators was completed by an Energy Refining Cultivator.
This unusual phenomenon immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Especially, those who had jointly issued the task were even more puzzled.
“Energy Refining late stage, Li Fan? Who is this person? Didn’t they say that the
Dragon whale could withstand the attack of a Golden Core Cultivator? How did
Li Fan hunt it down?”
“Could it be that this person is hiding his cultivation level?”
“This friend just joined our Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, right? You want to hide your cultivation level in front of the Spiritual Treasure Heaven
Mysterious Mirror? How is that possible!”
“This person is indeed in the late stage of Energy Refining, no doubt about that. I’ve had someone confirm it, he was only recently introduced by He Zhenghao to join our Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.”
“Oh? So how did he do it?”
“Could it be, does this person possess a strange treasure?”
An Energy Refining Cultivator accomplished something that even Foundation Establishment Cultivators couldn’t do, which made people speculate.
Just then, a disdainful voice rang out.
“Stop guessing, I have the latest inside information. This kid just got lucky.” These words immediately drew a round of side glances.
“Friend Zhou Peng, what do you mean by that?”
“Yes, good luck? How could it be possible?”
Zhou Peng also sighed and said: “I also couldn’t believe it, but it’s a fact.”
“The carcass of the Exotic Dragon whale was sent to Elder Gongsun in Tiantong Hall for analysis. The conclusion was that this Dragon whale had fought with at least three other giant sea creatures of the same tier before its death.” “Most of the wounds on it were left by these giant creatures.”
“Before its death, this Exotic Dragon whale was already at the end of its tether. Even without that kid lifting a finger, the Dragon whale wouldn’t have lived for long.”
After Zhou Peng finished speaking, the surroundings fell silent for a moment.
Although it was a bit incredible, everyone had heard of the name Elder Gongsun of Tiantong Hall.
So the conclusion he came up with, is somewhat credible.
“Apparently, that Dragon whale had the signs of about to transform into a Dragon. Maybe, that’s what attracted the other giant creatures.”
“That makes sense. For Exotic beasts who can devour others for evolution, those who have awakened their ancestor’s bloodline are the most nourishing.”
“Oh, this kid who is a Energy Refining Cultivator is so lucky. I really envy him.
That is 2000 contribution points!”
Those around nodded when they heard the news.
Li Fan had been prepared for the potential impact of completing the Exotic Dragon whale bounty task in his mind.
However, he wasn’t afraid at all.
Because no matter how you look at it, this Dragon whale died due to the mutual killing among giant creatures. He just happened to be passing by and landed a good deal.
For 2000 contribution points, it was worthwhile to take a little risk.
Putting this matter aside, after some searching and comparing, Li Fan identified the Technique he wanted.
“The Shadow-Following Form Secret.”
The essence of this Technique lies in the words “Shadow Following”.
The Technique excels at tracking and hiding.
Once the target is locked, it can follow as closely as the target’s shadow, making it hard for the target to shake it off.
Moreover, it can hide like a shadow in the dark, making it hard for the target to detect.
With such wonderful effectiveness, it’s naturally not cheap.
1800 contribution points.
Li Fan didn’t hesitate at all, he purchased it directly.
Just as Li Fan was preparing to close himself off for cultivation, he received a spirit symbol communication from He Zhenghao.
“Friend Li Fan! Gosh, I didn’t expect that the cultivator who hunted the Dragon whale was really you! I thought it was another cultivator with the same name and same realm.”
“It was only when people came asking about you that I confirmed that it was really the Dragon whale that you killed!”
He Zhenghao seemed exceptionally excited.
“Good, good, good. It did avenged me a little. You don’t know, these days, as soon as I close my eyes, I see the scene of the price of Spirit Mist Grass plummeting.”
Li Fan remained silent for a moment, after a while, he replied: “I just got lucky, I happened to encounter a fight between the Dragon whale and other giant creatures when I was doing the task, so I got a good deal.”
Not long after the message was sent, He Zhenghao replied.
“Luck is also part of one’s ability. Friend, your talent and luck are extraordinary. Your future will undoubtedly be promising!”
Before Li Fan could think of a response, another message from He Zhenghao came.
“I happen to have a favor to ask for. Could you help me?”
“Oh? What is it?”
“Hmm, I would like to ask you to act as the deputy guardian of Liuli Island.
What do you think?”
“Deputy guardian?” Li Fan was somewhat curious.
He Zhenghao quickly explained.
“Due to the Spirit Mist Grass incident before, I lost most of my savings from these years. Seeing that the Nascent Soul Cultivation Technique that I want to exchange is getting more and more out of reach, I really couldn’t swallow the sorry.”
“I just got a message from a few of my friends who recently discovered an Ancient Cave Mansion, inviting me to explore it together. According to them, this Cave Mansion was probably sealed before the Great Calamity fell, and there must be many rare treasures inside, and it’s not impossible that there are quite a few Techniques as well.”
“If I can gain something, it might help with my loss a little. So, I decided to take a chance.”
Li Fan thought for a while and didn’t reply immediately, instead, he asked: “I wonder how long do you need me to act as a deputy guardian?”
He Zhenghao quickly replied: “It won’t take long.
