Chapter 68: Illusory Spirit Resembling Azure Flames

As Li Fan's body temperature increased, the image of the Chih Yan in his sea of consciousness became clear once again.

However...

Even though Li Fan pushed the Xuanhuang Heart Refining Mantra to its limits, he ignored the faint taste of scorching emanating from his body.

At the moment when the Chih Yan's illusory spirit was about to take shape, for some unknown reason, Li Fan withdrew from the visualization state.

"Could it be because it's too hot, exceeding the body's endurance limit?"

Li Fan contemplated this and began searching in the Heavenly Profound Mirror for medicines that could resist heat.

Spending 10 contribution points, he purchased an Ice Heart Pill.

After consuming it, Li Fan attempted once again.

This time, as the fiery sensation brought about by visualizing the Chih Yan appeared, a cold breath emerged from his dantian at the same time.

This cold breath circulated throughout his body, suppressing the heat.

Without the need to distract himself to suppress bodily discomfort, Li Fan focused all his energy on condensing the illusory spirit resembling the Chih Yan.

However...

It didn't work!

The illusory spirit shattered just before it was about to take form.

It seemed like something deliberately obstructed within the depths, making it impossible for the illusory spirit to take form.

After several attempts, the effect of the Ice Heart Pill began to fade.

Li Fan stopped.

"The soul of Heaven and Earth is indeed extraordinary; even condensing an illusory spirit based on it is impossible..."

"There must be some unknown rules or restrictions within this."

Li Fan pondered for a moment and began searching for information about the soul of Heaven and Earth in the Heavenly Profound Mirror.

As expected, the Heavenly Profound Mirror informed him that his permissions were insufficient to view it.

For a moment, Li Fan's idea of condensing the illusory spirit resembling the Chih Yan fell into a dilemma.

However, he didn't intend to give up.

The greater the restrictions, the greater the harvest once successful.

The might of the soul of Heaven and Earth was clear; even obtaining a thousandth of it would be extraordinary.

However, he needed to carefully consider how to proceed.

Thus, Li Fan maintained his auxiliary cultivation, in a state of enlightenment, quietly closing his eyes to contemplate.

One day, two days, three days...

Time passed day by day, and his contribution points gradually burned away.

Li Fan had a premonition. In this state, even if his body were destroyed, and he faced death in the next moment, he wouldn't feel any fear.

It was a state of absolute calm and rationality.

It was in this state that Li Fan silently watched as his body was completely encased in ice.

It was like being in absolute zero, plunged into absolute silence.

At the same time, in Li Fan's sea of consciousness, the illusory spirit of blue flames finally took shape.

The temperature didn't rise, but vitality rapidly emerged on Li Fan.

It was as if the absolute coldness could no longer affect him.

Li Fan's consciousness moved, and the blue flames in his sea of consciousness flickered. The extreme coldness on his body quickly disappeared.

In the blink of an eye, Li Fan returned to his original appearance, and he emerged from that state of absolute rationality.

The extreme coldness seemed like an illusion, leaving no trace.

"So, this is the power of blue flames?"

In his sea of consciousness, the young blue flames illusory spirit fell into a deep sleep.

But Li Fan knew that he could awaken it at any time and recreate that state he had just experienced.

"Encountering four different situations when visualizing flames of different colors should correspond to the condition of the soul of Heaven and Earth."

After some contemplation, Li Fan made his own conjecture.

The soul of Heaven and Earth was the embodiment of the laws of Heaven, and in this realm, practitioners could also refine the soul of Heaven and Earth to achieve the Dao Unity Realm.

So, in the previous visualization process, those illusory spirits that could form but lacked any power should represent a lack of this particular type of soul of Heaven and Earth.

As for those that couldn't take form, like the red flames, they should still belong to the system of Heaven and Earth's laws. Although Li Fan could invoke their power, he couldn't possess them. For those like the black flames, they should have already been refined by Dao Unity cultivators and were no longer within the system of this realm's laws.

Then, what did this blue flame represent?

"The law of what is yet to be born?"

"In other words, in the near future, in some part of the cultivation world, the true soul of Heaven and Earth, the blue flame, will descend?" Li Fan fell into deep thought.

After a long time, Li Fan took a deep breath and buried his various speculations about the soul of Heaven and Earth deep in his mind.

Regardless, although he hadn't condensed the illusory spirit of red flames, he accidentally visualized the illusory spirit of blue flames.

The two attributes were completely opposite, but the power of the blue flames seemed to be no less than that of the red flames.

Feeling delighted, Li Fan began to practice the "Illusory Spirit of Darkness" again.

He attempted to nurture and strengthen the illusory spirit of blue flames, aiming to use it for psychic attacks.

Time slowly passed as he practiced.

Not long after, Li Fan suddenly stopped the auxiliary cultivation mode.

It turned out that due to the prolonged practice, his contribution points were now just a little over a hundred.
