Translator: 549690339

The appearance of Xiao Fan’s split-self greatly differentiated from the ordinary image of Lin Fan’s split-self.

When Li Fan was creating it, he specifically crafted it to be eight feet tall, with bright star-like eyes, pale skin, and unmatched aesthetics.

“It’s better to be eye-catching. Go take the reward of the Supreme Immortal Jicheng, and then proceed to Yuandao State, attracting everyone’s attention.”

“Let’s see if the monster hovering over Yuandao State is truly undetectable by anyone.”

With a slight smile on his face, Xiao Fan, the split-self, nodded.

Transforming into a blue light, he left the secret room.

Li Fan didn’t immediately follow.

He stayed in the original place for more than a month, until time moved to the 29th year, only then did he leisurely returned to Tianyu Province.

During this time, the split-self was only performing one task; obtaining the legitimate identity of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.

After reaching the Golden Core Realm through cultivation, one can’t simply join the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals through casual recommendation as before.

Cultivation is difficult, and independent cultivators have already gone through numerous hardships to benchmark the foundation.

Independent Golden Cores are indeed rare.

Although it’s not as strict as joining an institutional system, where one has to go through the test of White Jade Heart-Asking Platform.

However, a basic interrogation and a few test tasks are still needed.

Fortunately, Li Fan had already investigated the process in advance.

Although it took a lot of twists and turns, he ultimately joined the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals successfully.

Moreover, he made some acquaintances, such as Zhou Luo, the guard of the town of Sentence City in Tianyu Province.

Zhou Luo himself was a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul Stage, but because Xiao Fan, his split-self, is still young and was already at the Golden Core Realm despite being an independent cultivator.

So Zhou Luo was relatively courteous towards him.

After exchanging Communication Talismans, Xiao Fan used the Teleportation Array to first transit at Tianyu City.

He then hurried towards Tianquan Province.

The venue for receiving Jicheng Immortal’s reward was located there.

Tianquan Province, as the name suggests, has intricate connections with the word “Quan” which signifies authority.

Many cultivators holding high positions in the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals will establish industries and build Cave Mansions in this province.

Their relatives and followers often accompany them.

As a result, the land prices in Tianquan Province are sky-high, and it can be described as every inch of land is worth its weight in gold.

Unlike other provinces that still have continuous wilderness, here in Tianquan Province, vast open spaces are covered by one private Array Technique after another, indicating that people live here.

And those who can live in Tian Quan City are the elites amongst the powerful.

The Sky Extremity Institute of Jicheng Immortal was located here in Tianquan City.

Li Fan’s split-self exited the Teleportation Array and found the location of the Sky Extremity Institute after a brief inquiry.

At the entrance, two cultivators wearing grey robes stood on either side of the door.

Looking at their cultivation level, they were surprisingly cultivators of Nascent Soul Stage.

They had stern faces and seemed to be unwelcoming to strangers.

But as soon as they heard that Li Fan was there to participate in the reward event, possessing a precious longevity treasure, they immediately put on a very enthusiastic face.

A light scan from the door confirmed the identity of the split-self.

One of them immediately greeted: “Xiao Fan, I presume? This way please.”

Then he led Li Fan into the Sky Extremity Institute.

After several turns, they arrived at a hall.

There were quite a few cultivators gathered inside, all their gazes focused on a mirror hanging in the center of the hall.

Li Fan looked over and saw that the names of various cultivators and the longevity treasures they contributed were written on it.

From the conversation among the cultivators, Li Fan understood the reason.

Because of the huge commotion caused by this reward, besides attracting a large number of cultivators to present treasures, it also aroused some people’s dissatisfaction.

They believe that the chance to use Yan Fajue should be a reward from the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals for the painstakingly high achievements of the Jicheng Immortal.

It was a symbol of glory.

But now, in a struggle for survival, Emperor Ji Cheng was actually opting to hand over this glory to others.

This was a profanity to the honor of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals!

It was clear for anyone to see that this argument was merely meant to stir up trouble.

Having commanded the Defense Institute for more than five hundred years, Emperor Ji Cheng, although high-ranking and powerful, has inevitably made many enemies over time.

Now, severely injured and having stepped down from his general’s post, his end seemed near.

It was a natural opportunity for his enemies to stir up some waves.

For the sake of the bigger picture, and the reputation of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, a violent dispute would not take place.

But both openly and secretly, it was still possible to vex Emperor Ji Cheng.

As a result, all sorts of rumors sprung up practically overnight.

All of them evoked a sense of justice, blaming Emperor Ji Cheng.

The controversy grew so severe that rumors began to leak out, stating that Emperor Ji Cheng, under pressure, had reserved the use of the three spots for Yan Fajue to the descendants of the remaining celestial beings, in an attempt to appease the situation.

The cultivators were innocently offering up longevity treasures, only to be preparing wedding clothes for others.

Despite the apparent falsity of the rumors, they started to be believed when repeated too often.

Many cultivators started having second thoughts.

At this point, Emperor Ji Cheng, who had been silent in the midst of the controversy, finally spoke up.

“The so-called reservation is nothing but fiction.”

“In the interests of fairness and credibility, no one from the Sky Extremity Institute will participate in the selection of the longevity treasure. Instead, it will be publicized through the Tianxuan Mirror to avoid any covert manipulation.”

Upon hearing that the Tianxuan Mirror would directly identify and then rank the treasures, the cultivators’ minds were finally set at ease.

The Tianxuan Mirror, of course, wouldn’t be false.

And then, Emperor Ji Cheng made another promise. If the cultivators who participated in the reward challenge didn’t make the top three,

He would still reward them with an amount double the market value of their treasures.

With the verbal promise of this old celestial being, the cultivators participating in the reward challenge once again increased in number.

Seeing that the three-year deadline for the reward challenge was nearly at its end, they didn’t leave even after handing over the longevity treasures.

Instead, they kept a steady gaze on the rankings shown on the Tianxuan Mirror in the hall.

Li Fan also looked up at the leaderboard. The name of the cultivator who ranked first was illegible. However, he already knew what the treasure was—a Fruit of Eternal Life that could extend one’s life by five hundred years.

And the second place trailed behind significantly.

“Wan Yu, Qingmu Longevity Pill, extending life by 286 years.”

Upon seeing this, Li Fan breathed a sigh of relief.

“I didn’t expect my Rebirth Longevity Fruit to rank second. How fortunate.”

Li Fan continued to look down the leaderboard. The rest were longevity treasures that he had never heard of before.

“Emperor Ji Cheng has taken so many longevity treasures that only these, which are almost unique and nearly impossible to replicate, are effective.”

Just as he was contemplating,

Another cultivator entered the hall.

He paid no heed to the surrounding cultivators, walking straight to the center, below the Tianxuan Mirror.

He took out a purple wooden box and slowly opened it.

“I have a Tian Du Hua Feather Pill, which can extend life by 800 years. I dedicate it to Lord Emperor Ji Cheng!”

His voice was soft but, to the ears of the crowd, it sounded like a thunderclap, shocking everyone to their feet to take a good look at this newly arrived cultivator.

Li Fan couldn’t help but shift his gaze to this person as well.

“Tian Du Hua Feather Pill? From Yuandao State?”

“Wait, this person… why does he seem familiar?”

In an instant, Li Fan recognized the identity of this cultivator.

It was Han Yi, who at the end of the sixteenth year, at Misthaven Ocean, hit the Dingyu Jackpot and raked in a massive 1.56 million contribution points.

Han Yi.
