Chapter 472: Chapter 444: A Thousand Years Calling for Tianyang
Before Qing could respond, Oracle Son flicked his duster.
The sky darkened as a charm paper inscribed with golden characters materialised above the ind.
It blocked out the sun and threatened to suppress everyone in the Empire in the next second.
Qing’s face changed dramatically and two light beams, sharp as des, rose into the sky.
Colliding with the gigantic charm paper.
The golden charm paper was torn apart, revealing the firmament again.
Then the golden characters on the paper did not disappear.
But fluttered down slowly, scattering towards the ground.
From Qing’s body, beams of light emerged continually.
Each of them dissipating the characters.<div>
It was clear that both were exercising restraint during thisbat.
The unusual celestial phenomenon remained in the surrounding area of the ind, even Li Fan, Li Chenfeng and others who were watching were unaffected.
After a while, when Qing hadpletely suppressed Oracle Son’s golden charm.
She suppressed her anger and was about to question the stranger’s intention.
She realised that this mysterious man who casted the golden charm, had said something to Li Fan and then left on his own.
With her eyes slightly narrowed, Qing did not stop him.
Watching as Li Fan flew closer without worry.
“What does your United Federation of All Realms mean?”
It was only then, Qing asked with frost on her face.
Li Fan shrugged, “We mean no harm. But as we’re going to coborate, naturally we need to test your strengths to see if it’s worthy.”
“Fortunately, you barely managed to gain approval.”
Qing snorted coldly, her eyes fixated on Li Fan.
Li Fan was nonchnt though, he smiled and said, “The Federation agreed to your previous proposal.”
“We will aid the Empire in elerating the n to break away from the Xuanhuang World; you will need to contribute some force to the Federation.”
“However…”
Li Fan paused slightly, “Considering the current situation of both sides, the organization thinks that we can gradually implement the cooperation n.”
“How will we proceed gradually?” Qing asked, her tone slowly softening.
Li Fan tossed a storage ring to her. Qing caught the ring, inspected it, and was surprised.
The items stored inside were exactly the supplies needed by the Empire.<div>
Qingling Crystals, Wanhua Ancient Green Silk, Tongbi ck Ginseng…
Although the quantities were small, it wasmendable that every type was ounted for.
It had been thousands of years since they left the Xuanhuang World and she didn’t know the current market price.
However, Qing knew that the assets inside the storage ring were extremely valuable.<div>
Thus, Qing’s face gradually softened.
“This is the first batch of supplies.”
“Your demands are so great that to avoid arousing suspicion by the Xuanhuang World, we have no choice but to purchase the items in small quantities.”
Li Fan exined.
Hearing his exnation, Qing found some reasoning in it, so she slowly nodded.
“Simultaneously, we are also looking out for potential locations for the future branches of the Empire.”
“Safety and concealment need to be absolutely ensured. In the current Xuanhuang World, there aren’t many suitable ces, so we need to wait for a while.”
Li Fan continued.
“To eliminate your doubts and to demonstrate the sincerity of the organization, these supplies are provided to the Empire for free.”
“Around a yearter, when the next batch of supplies is ready, I’lle again.”
“However, at that point in time, the United Federation of All Realms hopes to see the Empire’s attitude.”
“And then we can talk about the next cooperation.”
Li Fan made a salute, and without waiting for Qing’s response, he left.<div>
“Saint Teacher…”
Li Chenfeng looked at Qing, hesitant to speak.
Qing frowned and carefully inspected the storage ring again. Finding nothing suspicious, she carefully put it away.
“For now, it seems that the other party’s intention to cooperate is quite sincere.”
“He was right, we can gradually initiate the cooperation. We could start by offering some less important technology in exchange.”
“If anything goes wrong, we can quickly cut our losses.”
Qing told Li Chenfeng and others.
“I need to go back and consult with the princess and Hong.”
It was left unsaid by Qing, but for some reason, she felt something strange about this emissary from the Federation.
He didn’t seem as simple as he appeared on the surface.
Ten Thousand Immortals Ind.
After expressing his gratitude to the Oracle Son once again, Li Fan went back to reviewing messages in the Tianxuan Mirror.
The results of the admission exam had been announced, naturally, some were pleased, others not so much.<div>
There were still controversies over the appointment to some positions, but they soon disappeared.
In the southwestern region of Misthaven Ocean, a wind disaster broke out, desting more than ten inds of mortals.
The price of the special product, Mystic Azure Dew, fluctuated slightly. Li Fan bought at a low price and sold high, making a small profit.
Taixu Mountain, one of the ten peaks of Taihua Mountain in Taihua State, suddenly copsed, the cause unknown.
When Li Fan skimmed through this piece of information, his eyes tingled slightly.
“Hmm? The ten peaks of Taihua Mountain? I recall seeing only nine peaks in previous lives.”
“It seems, the casualties this time were quite heavy.”
Li Fan pondered, but didn’t examine further.
He just recorded it as important and continued to browse other news.
Thereafter, Li Fan separately looked up the recent situation of the Fisherman, Martial Arts Fanatic, Zhong Shentong, Shuo Feng, among others.
The Fisherman was still wandering near the Central Four States of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.
The Martial Arts Fanatic and Zhong Shentong were still not well-known.
Shuo Feng remained a God Transforming Immortal Monarch and had not reincarnated.<div>
Based on his experiences from the previous life, Li Fan tried to guess the possible timing of their fortuitous encounters.
…
A monthter, Li Fan awoke from his retreat.
Feeling that the timing was right, he directly transferred five hundred thousand merit points to He Zhenghao.
“I was lucky this time, sensed the opportunity quickly and havepleted the objective.”
Li Fan said in anguid tone.
A momentter, He Zhenghao’s ecstatic voice came through.
“Senior, your divine technique is truly ineffable!”
“Hehe. The Sect’s secret technique, the bacsh is unavoidable. Collection of contributions for the next time will still be at the previously set timing. You go and exin it to them.”
After giving some instructions, Li Fan ignored He Zhenghao and swallowed an Enlightenment Pill, going back to his meditative state.
Time hurried by and in the blink of an eye, it was the 9th year.
During this time, Li Fan’s n had started to show its results.
More than twenty streams of cultivation,rge and small, emerged one after the other in Li Fan’s Dantian.
Further, a year of arduous cultivation under thebined influence of Enlightenment and Enlightenment Pills.
After Li Fan reached the limit of the Mid Stage Golden Core, he was fortunately only gued by the [Catastrophe of the Heavens] bottleneck for more than ten days.
He then naturally advanced to the Final Stage Golden Core.
Li Fan exhaled a long breath and put his cultivation on hold for a moment.
“Next, whether it’s to intimidate the people of the Empire or to explore the Heaven Spirit State Void, it might be a little inadequate to act alone.”
“Maybe I should look for some assistance.”
Li Fan pondered for a while, then quietly left Ten Thousand Immortals Ind.
He went straight to Tianyang Cave Mansion.
On the road, after several dozens of attempts, he finally managed to transform into a face that resembled Tianyang’s Second Senior Brother, Ling Xiao.
