My Simulated Road to Immortality Chapter 556 – Chapter 556: Chapter 528: Profound and Unrecordable

Chapter 556: Chapter 528: Profound and Unrecordable

Zhou Qingang shrank his neck, indicating that he knew he was wrong.

The human-faced being’s expression softened slightly at his response. “This matter is of great importance, and even I am not aware of all the intricacies involved.”

“But what I can be sure of is that our gains this time have been quite substantial.”

His voice inevitably revealed a trace of excitement. “Even the attitude of the superiors towards us has improved considerably in recent times.”

“The funding has been incredibly generous, more than doubling the original amount.”

“And my share?” Zhou Qingang hastened to ask.

“Why the rush? Have I ever short-changed you?” The human-faced being chastised.

“When the time of the transaction comes, you will receive the materials needed by Li Fan, along with your own allotment.”

“Thank you, boss!” Zhou Qingang gratefully said. “Although I’m doing quite well now and often receive all kinds of gifts from cultivators, you can never have too much money.”

“Alright, don’t let it get to your head. I didn’t expect that you would become the commander this time. It seems making the move with He Zhenghao was indeed the right decision.”

The human-faced being pondered for a moment before adding, “He Zhenghao and Li Fan, both these men have profound backgrounds. You need to maintain a good relationship with them.”

“When Misthaven City is rebuilt, even if Li Fan doesn’t become the real lord of Misthaven Island, his status will certainly not be low. Following him will be more beneficial than striving alone and will lead to faster promotion. You have an immeasurable future ahead. You could be considered successfully infiltrating the enemy.”

“We’ve helped them overcome this challenge this time. They probably won’t be able to refuse us the next time we need them.”

The human-faced being suddenly burst out into a low, gloating laughter.

“Your brilliance is unparalleled, boss!” Zhou Qingang praised.

The two then discussed the details of the transaction before the human-faced being broke off the communication.

Zhou Qingang, acting as if everything was normal, returned to the bustling construction site of Misthaven Elysian City.

He began to stridently inspect the site.

“The record of the anomaly that happened the day of the Ten Thousand Immortals Island incident…” Li Fan mused for a moment and took out a Shadow Stone.

The Aura of the Transformation Stone circled in his spirit consciousness, engraving every minute detail of the day’s events into it.

In an instant, it was completed.

Li Fan, out of habit, checked it again.

Upon checking, he discovered an issue.

In the recorded image, it was impossible to record that shred of “green” that destroyed the Martial Arts Battle Hall.

Looking back at the Shadow Stone, what he saw was an entire building and more than ten cultivators inexplicably disappearing out of thin air. The cultivators were terrified and scrambling to escape.

The actions of Chief Lu, who arrived to prevent the situation from spiralling out of control, looked rather ridiculous.

“Unrecordable…”

Li Fan tapped his finger and fell into deep thought.

Pending hundreds of years in the Taoist Sect Mystic Realm, Li Fan had come to know many secrets that common cultivators today are unaware of.

Some gradually faded away with his return to reality, but some still remained in his spirit consciousness.

“Just like the terrifying presence looming over Yuandao State, indeed there are terrifying existences that cannot be recorded by any means.”

“Whether it’s pen and paper, Jade Scroll or other methods, none can record them.”

“If the limiting force is stronger, they may even disappear from people’s memory.”

“However, the premise of all this is… these things truly exist.”

A spark of insight flashed in Li Fan’s heart.

“It seems that such an unrecordable phenomenon didn’t occur until a year ago.”

“So, Xuan’s Web has appeared in the world now?”

Li Fan was slightly taken aback in his heart.

“Without large-scale construction of the Tianxuan Soul Locking Array, there is a high probability that it is just a prototype.”

“The Immortal Alliance has been mobilizing elite forces for these years. They have indeed not been idle. The unprecedented movement of the Five Elders Organization seems to be related to this.”

…

After a long contemplation, Li Fan looked at the Shadow Stone in his hand and decided against adding or modifying anything.

The anomaly of Ten Thousand Immortals Island’s Xuan’s Web was such a long time ago that the Five Elders Organization has now unexpectedly brought up again. Li Fan guessed that their target is most likely Elder Gongsun, who has vanished without a trace.

Not just the Five Elders Organization, even the Immortal Alliance has been searching for him all this while.

Being able to remain out of sight under the search of the two biggest powers in Xuanhuang World, Gongsun Qixuan really has some methods.

“Maybe he is not deliberately hiding. It’s more likely that he’s severely injured and has lost consciousness.”

Shaking his head, he stopped thinking about it.

Li Fan found an opportunity and handed over the Shadow Stone and the reconstruction plan of Misthaven Elysian City to his clone “Zhou Qingang”.

After ten days, Zhou Qingang secretly handed over these two confidential items to the Stone-faced being.

After confirmation, the Stone-faced being was ecstatic.

As promised, he handed over a Storage Ring filled with strategic materials.

With this, Li Fan easily resolved the crisis.

With ample material support, the construction speed of Misthaven Elysian City accelerated once again.

Li Fan frequently appeared in public, showing his importance to this construction project.

The cultivators under him were also full of energy.

There was however, one group of people who were completely restless.

In a dark little room on the Dustcrosser Boat,

“Zhou Kebao, this is the idea you came up with!”

“Exactly, it’s come to this point, yet you still play it cool! Haven’t you seen that Misthaven City is almost built?”

“You were the one who started all this, saying that Li Fan was faking his composure. What do you have to say now?”

…

Zhou Kebao’s face was alternating between green and white as he listened to the endless reproaches of his companions.

He defended himself, “Something’s fishy! There’s definitely something fishy!”

“Some time ago, the information I obtained clearly stated that they were indeed running short of materials.”

“How come it’s this soon, and their materials are now abundant?”

“These are strictly controlled strategic materials, they wouldn’t be able to buy them even if they wanted to!”

Zhou Kebao’s face was full of confusion.

His eyes were spinning fast, apparently trying to unravel the big secret.

However, his speech seemingly failed to convince everyone present.

“Leaving aside everything else, what should we do now?”

“Once Li Fan completes the construction of the Elysian City, aren’t all our materials going to be wasted?”

“Broken hearts aside, what if Li Fan turns it around and reports us? What should we do then?”

“Zhou Kebao, you caused this mess, you clean it up. Hurry up and find Li Fan and seek a truce!”

“…”

The voices of everyone were making Zhou Kebao uneasy.

The faint glimmer of insight in his mind flickered and disappeared before he had time to catch it.

In such a situation, Zhou Kebao had no choice but to give in with a sigh.

Thus, a day later, Zhou Kebao sought out Li Fan.

He did not play any tricks but sincerely explained the ins and outs of the situation.

“Li Daoist friend is one step ahead, we lose without resentment.”

“However, this thing was Dan Taixian’s idea from the start. We were just momentarily blinded by it…” Zhou Kebao said with shame.

Li Fan just smiled, saying nothing.

“So what’s your purpose in finding me now?”
