Chapter 362: Adding fuel to the fire
"What? Do you want to return to the stronghold and continue the construction of the Tianxuan Spirit Locking Array?"
"Are you crazy?"
Hao Hui was startled when he saw the old Li Fan suddenly appearing in front of him.
When he told him his request, Hao Hui looked in disbelief at first, thinking that he had heard wrongly.
After confirming it repeatedly, he laughed angrily and flatly refused.
"Fellow Daoist Li, you have done enough."
"Leave the rest to other formation mages."
"Your current situation is really not suitable for continuing the construction of the formation."
After hesitating for a moment, Hao Hui still suggested: "Fellow Taoist, you have been trapped in the energy-devouring white mist for too long, and your life span will be over."
"The plan for now is to seize all the time and practice hard."
"Let's see if we can break through to the Nascent Soul realm before the deadline is approaching."
"Given Taoist fellow Taoist's talent, I don't think there is any chance of changing one's fate against the odds."
Although what Hao Hui said was very appealing to Li Fan, he still shook his head against his will and said: "I understand Taoist friends' wishes. However, self-knowledge is the key to a person's life. With my remaining lifespan, it is absolutely impossible for me to cultivate to the Nascent Soul realm. !”
"Instead of wasting time on such meaningless things, it is better to contribute my last bit of strength to the construction of the Tianxuan Spirit Locking Array while I can still move."
"If I were to witness the Tianxuan Spirit Locking Formation covering the entire territory of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance in my lifetime."
"Even if I die, I will have no regrets!"
Li Fan looked solemn and spoke righteously.
"If I can only do nothing for the rest of my life, waiting for death in a daze. I will not rest in peace even if I die."
"I hope fellow Taoist disciples will come true!"
Looking at Li Fan who was extremely serious, Hao Hui was speechless.
Instinctively, I wanted to refuse, but looking at the other party's sincere eyes, my heart was filled with an indescribable feeling.
"...Forget it, fellow Taoist, wait for me for a moment. I'll go ask for instructions."
Hao Hui seemed to be afraid of facing Li Fan again, so he left in a hurry.
Li Fan took his time and waited patiently.
Half a day later, Hao Hui came back with a complicated expression.
"Fellow Daoist Li, the higher ups have agreed to your request. After this wave of demonic sounds subsides, our Qingxuan Army will send people to escort you back to the front line."
"So, thank you so much, Brother Hao." Li Fan seemed to be relieved and nodded in thanks.
"Fellow Taoist Li Fan..." Hao Hui couldn't help but ask after seeing the relieved look on the white-haired Li Fan after he got the mission.
"Why exactly?"
Li Fan's actions were beyond Hao Hui's understanding.
he asked with confusion.
Li Fan smiled without answering, cupped his hands, and walked away.
Hao Hui, who was at a loss and doubtful about life, was left standing there, silent for a long time.
Unsurprisingly, there was news that Li Fan, half of his body was about to be buried, was about to return to the front line of building the formation.
In an instant, word spread throughout Duanzhang Immortal City.
While there was an uproar, doubts inevitably emerged.
However, half a month later, when Li Fan left the Eternal Immortal Base again and flew towards the Jiaxu stronghold, under the protection of dozens of Qingxuan troops.
All doubts will be dispelled without any proof.
The monks were shocked by Li Fan's choice, and at the same time felt ashamed of the dirty little thoughts in their hearts.
Compared with the sacrifices Li Fan made, the fact that he left his hometown and guarded the abyss for decades seemed insignificant.
Ever since, an unprecedented wave began to emerge in the Qingxuan Army.
He no longer talked about his hard work, but began to compare his age with those who served in the abyss.
Li Fan, who arrived at the Jiaxu stronghold, didn't know all this.
Due to Li Fan's timely request for help, the reinforcements from the Eternal Immortal Base successfully arrived before the stronghold's supplies were exhausted.
A tragedy was avoided.
Although the behavior of leaving Li Fan alone and going deep into the white mist caused some punishment to the surviving monks.
But compared to being able to save one's life, all this is nothing.
Moreover, with Li Fan's plea.
He Chen, Kong Yu and other monks finally returned to the Jiaxu stronghold, performed meritorious service, and assisted Li Fan in constructing the formation.
In order to ensure Li Fan's life safety, the Eternal Immortal Base has tripled the number of escort troops.
Carrying more reserve supplies is beyond imagination, you can spend as much as you want, and you no longer have to worry about running out of supplies.
And Li Fan didn't rest for a moment.
When the demonic sound tide that had been raging for a long time finally subsided, he directly continued the construction of the Soul Locking Array.
He Chen and others have all received his life-saving grace.
Everyone in the Qingxuan Army was even appointed and obeyed Li Fan's words.
In this small Jiaxu stronghold, Li Fan also gained absolute authority.
If the arm directs, all orders will be completed 120%.
In addition, Li Fan also reversed his own will and went from fishing when he could to a workaholic who forgot to rest.
The formation speed is almost twice as fast as before.
Due to the influence of the previous wave of magic sounds, the formation construction was forced to stop.
Li Fan's ranking on the Grand Competition Gold List had originally fallen to the bottom, hovering around 600.
And when everyone started to rebuild, the rankings also rose steadily, trying to catch up.
Li Fan's rapid rise in ranking did not attract many people's attention.
Among the entire list, the most eye-catching one is still Guo Yezhong, who has zero points.
This person seemed not to take the so-called Dabi seriously at all.
The monks talked a lot, but the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance did not take any special measures in this regard.
However, there is news circulating secretly that Guo Yezhong is still in the territory of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and has not defected.
And he didn't give up the fight. When others asked, he just responded, "It's still unclear who will win and who will lose."
When Li Fan devoted himself wholeheartedly to the construction of the formation and felt the torment in his heart.
The anecdotes that happened to him began to spread rapidly outside the Duanzhang Fairy City under the instructions of caring people.
Especially the touching story of how he still tried his best to build the Tianxuan Spirit Locking Array even after he suffered a huge change and his life span was about to expire.
Being written up in great detail.
Soon, all the monks from the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance who were not in retreat basically knew what Li Fan had done.
Whether you believe it or not is another matter.
Li Fan's communication talisman exploded first.
He Zhenghao, Shen Yuzi, and old friends they met in Huanyu Villa all sent messages asking.
There were so many that Li Fan had to set up an automatic reply and briefly explain what happened.
Naturally, his friends sighed, and at the same time they admired Li Fan greatly.
Several people also promised to find life-extending treasures for Li Fan.
Li Fan thanked them one by one.
Then he continued to invest non-stop in the construction of the formation.
So, two years passed.
On this day, a ray of colorful light cut through the white fog and headed straight for Duanzhang Immortal City.
