My Simulated Road to Immortality Chapter 630 – Chapter 630: Chapter 602: The Concealed Xuantian in the Purple Sky

Chapter 630: Chapter 602: The Concealed Xuantian in the Purple Sky

Curiosity got the better of Jiao Xiuyuan.

A piece of news could lead to a business opportunity, possibly even a breakthrough.

So, he invested heavily in infiltration and subversion efforts.

Despite spending a small fortune, no cultivator was willing to reveal even a fraction of the information.

They vaguely suggested that this issue was fundamentally important and unlike anything in the past.

Leaking the secret could potentially cost them their lives.

With no other options, Jiao Xiuyuan reluctantly gave up, despite his unwillingness.

Without any results, he naturally didn’t report back to Li Fan.

Just as he was about to forget about this matter, a turning point occurred.

Sometime after the Celestial Spirit State War ended, a tight-lipped cultivator secretly contacted him.

Jiao Xiuyuan was somewhat perplexed.

The man confessed that times had changed, and the situation was different now.

The secrecy regarding the matter had been downgraded several levels, so…

Of course, some compensation was still required.

Therefore, Jiao Xiuyuan paid a price that even he found painful to secure this top-secret information.

The revelations indeed shocked him.

Such a secret was naturally not something he could share with Li Fan freely.

Jiao Xiuyuan did not believe that Li Fan could afford the price required to purchase this secret.

As such, he chose to quietly let the matter rest.

Until today, when Li Fan came to him in person.

“The future of end product…”

“It’s enough.”

Jiao Xiuyuan’s mind was filled with thoughts in an instant.

Eventually, he made up his mind.

“Oh, look at my memory; I almost forgot!” Jiao Xiuyuan slapped his head.

“I must admit, this matter you are entrusting me to investigate is a top-secret for the Immortal Alliance. If it were anyone else, I wouldn’t disclose a bit, regardless of how much they contributed.”

“But, well…”

Jiao Xiuyuan cast a glance at Li Fan and said, “What is our relationship? Didn’t we make money together?”

“Plus today’s pointer.” Jiao Xiuyuan added emphasis.

“There’s no harm in telling you for free.”

“However, it is not convenient to mention this matter on a Communication Talisman. If you are really interested, please find me at the nearest Thousand Miles Hall.”

Li Fan’s eyes slightly narrowed.

It seemed that this matter was truly significant, given Jiao Xiuyuan’s caution around it.

He nodded and ended the communication.

After some thought, he decided to return to Misthaven Ocean through the Teleportation Array.

In the Thousand Miles Hall shop in Misthaven Elysian City, he found Jiao Xiuyuan.

After sending out the few customers in the shop, Jiao Xiuyuan closed the front door. It seemed as if he had set up some kind of isolation shield around the area before he began to talk to Li Fan.

“Do you know about the Mystic Sky Sect?”

This was an explosive question thrown by Jiao Xiuyuan.

Li Fan’s eyes flickered as he nodded slightly.

“An ancient evil sect, it is everyone’s duty to eradicate them.”

Although the Mystic Sky Sect’s existence is not known to the world today, Li Fan, as a cultivator of the Ancient Sect of Heavenly Secrets, naturally knew about the existence of the Mystic Sky Sect.

Jiao Xiuyuan was not surprised by this response.

He continued, “The ancient cultivator that the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals discovered this time is one of the Twelve Law Kings of the Mystic Sky Sect from the past.”

“?”

A glint flashed in Li Fan’s eyes.

“A Law King of the Mystic Sky Sect? Is he still alive?” he couldn’t help but ask.

“Correct, I was quite shocked when I first learned about it. This guy actually managed to live for so long, across several eras…”

“After all, he was one of the figures who unified Xuanhuang World all those years ago. There are indeed some tricks to his longevity.” Jiao Xiuyuan murmured, somewhat awe-struck.

However, Li Fan fell into deep thought.

According to previous information from the Five Elders Organization, this ancient cultivator was excavated from the relics of the Violet Firmament Sect by the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.

They were unclear about the identity of the other party.

It seemed to be extremely important to the Five Elders Organization, and they even asked Li Fan to help investigate…

Originally, Li Fan thought it would be someone related to Zhang Qianmo, but he never thought it would actually be a remnant of the ancient Mystic Sky Sect.

How did a Law King of the Mystic Sky Sect end up hiding in the Violet Firmament Sect?

Li Fan was somewhat puzzled.

“Wait…”

Something popped up in Li Fan’s mind.

In the Illusory Realm “Ningyuan Life Fruit” in the Fallen Immortal Realm, Song Hesong, the manager of Ningyuan City, told Li Fan,

About two hundred years ago, during the centennial celebration of the Violet Firmament Sect, envoys from the Immortal Dao Ten Clans had arrived.

Their goal was to trace a wanted fugitive hidden within the Violet Firmament Sect.

In the end, the matter was unresolved, and they just arrested one inner disciple to wrap things up.

“Could it be that the person who was hiding in the Violet Firmament Sect back then was this Mystic Sky Sect Law King?”

“And the Ten Clans of the Immortal Dao didn’t find him, but just arrested a scapegoat?”

After figuring out the connections, Li Fan was shaken.

Seeing the subtle changes in Li Fan’s expression, Jiao Xiuyuan also pondered.

He continued, “The reason why the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals went through such great lengths, even digging three feet into the ground at various relics to find this Law King of the Mystic Sky Sect, is because this person is related to the ‘Mystic Sky Sealing Spirit Array’.”

Jiao Xiuyuan paused to observe the expression on Li Fan’s face, then continued, “The specific details are not very clear.”

“But somehow, a crucial component required to sustain the Array Technique involves this Law King of the Mystic Sky Sect.”

“At the time, the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals and the Five Elders Organization were on the verge of war, and the Alliance had pinned their hopes of victory against the Five Elders on the ‘Mystic Sky Sealing Spirit Array’.”

“Naturally, they kept a close watch on this Law King, not allowing for any mishaps.”

“Weirdly enough, despite all this, the news was somehow leaked.”

“Such a powerful weapon of mass destruction, and yet, the Five Elders Organization found a way to counteract it in a short period of time.”

“This is not at all reasonable. Who would believe that there wasn’t a mole?”

“Given the complexity of that Array Technique, I fear that even if the Celestial Dharma Bearer were still alive, he might not have been able to crack it so quickly without any knowledge.”

Jiao Xiuyuan sighed, “But whoever leaked the information is truly deeply hidden. The Alliance of Thousands of Immortals has carried out internal cleanups for a long time, but they still have not been able to find him. Isn’t that strange?”

“It indeed seems a bit unimaginable.” Li Fan’s face remained the same, but he appeared slightly astonished.

“I somehow have the feeling that there might even be someone within the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals who intentionally leaked the Array Technique to prevent the war from being one-sided.” Li Fan spoke casually.

“That can’t be, it’s a bit too…” Jiao Xiuyuan started to laugh, but his expression suddenly froze.

“But there might be such a possibility.” After a long while, his expression became somewhat serious.

Li Fan was immediately speechless.

“By the way, what’s the name or title of that Mystic Sky Sect Law King? What does he look like?”

“Violet Firmament Sect…”

“I knew quite a few people from their Sect back then.” Li Fan inquired.

Still lost in thought about the previous matter, Jiao Xiuyuan answered absentmindedly, “Right, he is from your own Sect.”

“His name seems to be something like…”

“Li Chen?”
