Chapter 185: Splitting the Mind

Chapter 185: Splitting the Mind

With the help of [Truth], one could undergo infinite cycles of reincarnation.

Apart from the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, Li Fan would definitely have the opportunity to visit other organizations such as the Five Elders Association in the future.

He believed that they should also have a method similar to the Inquiry Platform.

To prevent exposure and being directly killed as a spy, it was necessary to find a technique that could conceal his intentions.

Moreover, a method to hide the secrets in his heart was particularly important for Li Fan, who possessed [Truth].

"You better be a spy, fellow Daoist Zhou."

Recalling the scene when he first met Zhou Qingang, Li Fan secretly said in his heart.

Subsequently, he separately messaged several people he knew, such as He Zhenghao, Gao Yuan, and Chen Ying, inquiring about Zhou Qingang.

After most of the day passed, he gradually received replies.

Excluding those who didn't know much about Zhou Qingang, the other responses were quite consistent.

Originally, Zhou Qingang was a wandering cultivator.

Over seventy years ago, in the later stages of Qi Condensation, he joined the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.

After advancing to the Foundation Establishment stage, he successfully passed the assessment held once every ten years and became the guardian of Taian Island.

Zhou Qingang was diligent and responsible in his daily work.

Most of the time, he stayed on the island, rarely venturing outside.

...

With this information, Li Fan became even more convinced of his judgment.

Next, he had to find a way to expose Zhou Qingang's true colors.

Having infiltrated the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance for so many years without being discovered by others, this person must be extremely cautious in his actions.

For others, finding his flaws might be difficult.

But for Li Fan, who harbored the Formless Killing Intent, as long as this person was indeed a spy, it was only a matter of time before he revealed himself under the all-encompassing, 24/7 surveillance throughout the year.

Wearing a friendly smile, Li Fan left the Tianxuan Mirror and arrived at Taian Island through the teleportation array.

Having served as the acting guardian for several years, Li Fan was quite familiar with the island.

Above the city where the strange human-faced fruit lived, Li Fan met Zhou Qingang and explained his intentions.

"Your timing is unfortunate, fellow Daoist. All the remaining Taian Fruits have been sold, and there are none left." Zhou Qingang shook his head, expressing regret.

"Oh, my luck is really bad. I recently heard that there is such a cheap and life-prolonging treasure, but I couldn't find it in the Tianxuan Mirror. I wanted to see if fellow Daoist had any in stock." Li Fan sighed, looking regretful.

It specifically manifested as occasional brief pauses in thinking and a decrease in his normal thinking speed.

In simple terms, Li Fan sometimes felt that his brain was "lagging."

To solve this problem, there were two methods.

One was to increase the strength of his consciousness.

The second was to enhance the multitasking ability of his consciousness, splitting his mind into different tasks.

Compared to ordinary cultivators, Li Fan's spiritual consciousness strength was already quite strong, equivalent to the late stage of Golden Core, a realm higher than the average Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Now that he had found a method to enhance his spiritual consciousness strength by entering the Fallen Immortal Realm and absorbing the bodies of those possessed, he didn't need to search for other ways to increase spiritual consciousness strength.

Therefore, what Li Fan needed to do now was to improve his shortcomings.

He needed to find a way to split his mind for various tasks.

During the twelfth life, even though Li Fan possessed a considerable fortune, he couldn't find such a technique in the Tianxuan Mirror.

He could only reluctantly make do.

Since he had joined the system of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance in this life, he naturally wanted to take this opportunity to find a technique that could enhance his multitasking capabilities.

Before, Li Fan had searched a bit, but with his permission level only being One, he hadn't found a suitable technique.

However, Li Fan believed that as his permission level increased, he would eventually find a satisfactory technique.

Currently, Li Fan was at the Foundation Establishment stage, and most of the merit tasks available corresponded to third-grade merits.

Occasionally, there were one or two tasks classified as second grade with a label indicating high risk.

Li Fan's target was these high-risk tasks.

The so-called high risk varied from person to person.

For ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators within the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, tasks at the Golden Core level were clearly beyond their ability.

However, for Li Fan, who possessed various divine techniques, the risks of these tasks weren't as high.

For example, one task required him to join a squad from the Martial Hall to clear out beasts on Wanlai Island in the Cong Yun Sea.

According to the task description, these beasts fed on sound.

They reproduced rapidly in large numbers and needed to be cleared out periodically.

Although the beasts were rampant, their individual strength was relatively weak.

Their basic combat power was only equivalent to the early Foundation Establishment stage.

This task was perfect for Li Fan.
