Chapter 627: Chapter 599: Xuan Huang without Warfare

“Almost there.”

“Let’s wait a little longer.”

Within the murmurings of the Celestial Doctor, including Hanhai, all the anomalies within the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters swiftly returned to their original states.

Just as they appeared when they had been undisturbed for millions of years.

And those cultivators who were venturing within the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters, including Li Fan’s clone, all disintegrated and disappeared into ashes and smoke at the soft push of the Celestial Doctor’s hands.

They didn’t have a single chance to resist.

In fact, Zhou Qingang’s clone didn’t even know how he died.

Li Fan’s main body merely felt the enormous hand of the Celestial Doctor pressing down, and he lost connection with his clone.

Your destruction has nothing to do with me.

“Phew.” Losing his clone, Li Fan took a deep breath and relaxed.

“It seems I made the right bet. Even someone as formidable as the Celestial Doctor wouldn’t guess that the ant he just stepped on and crushed was plotting against him.”

But at the moment, there was no triumph on Li Fan’s face.

Because the true power demonstrated by the Celestial Doctor in this battle had reached an unthinkable level.

In Li Fan’s initial assumption, even if Fisherman is mad and forgetful, and Confucius changes into a weird form with reduced strength,

if the two of them joined forces, they should’ve been able to give the Celestial Doctor some trouble.

The result…

The difference in strength between them and the Celestial Doctor was as wide as the difference between Li Fan and Fisherman & Confucius. It was as if they were separated by several realms!

They were no match for the Celestial Doctor.

As a result, Li Fan’s plan to trouble the Celestial Doctor turned into a self-derisive joke!

Fisherman and Confucius, were absolutely amongst the top powerhouses under the Immortal realm, but in the hands of the Celestial Doctor, they were like fragile insects, being toyed with at will.

Such strength…

“Has the Celestial Doctor advanced to the Immortal Realm?”

Li Fan couldn’t help but think so.

Otherwise, he couldn’t explain why the Celestial Doctor could be so formidable.

“What principles did he go against?”

“Without attracting attention, unknown to outsiders. Could it be him who had control over the Principle of Life and Death, causing Lan Yu’s failure in enlightenment?”

“What exactly is the relationship between the Celestial Doctor and the Immortal Alliance?”

“It seems, I’ve never seen the Celestial Doctor act on behalf of the Immortal Alliance. Even in the previous life, during the most intense battle between the Xuan Net and the resisting cultivators…”

There were so many doubts that suddenly arose in Li Fan’s mind.

Originally, Li Fan thought that he would at least be able to understand the Celestial Doctor’s depths this time.

Who would’ve thought, the more he understood about him, the more enigmatic he felt about this person.

“Until I reach the Unity-Path realm, it’s better not to provoke him.”

Li Fan sighed, reluctantly made a decision.

Even though he possessed the treasure [Real], in the face of absolute power difference, he had to temporarily avoid confrontation.

Otherwise, if he walks in the dark a lot, he won’t always be this lucky and remain undetected by him.

Suppressing his unwillingness and astonishment, it took a half day for Li Fan’s emotions to slowly settle.

Replaying the things his clone experienced in the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters within his Spirit Consciousness, Li Fan began to ponder once more.

“Celestial Doctor, Sky Extermination, and Tian Yu…”

“All begin with the character [天] (Heaven), and they are all familiar acquaintances. The people of the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters, call them Lords.”

“Obviously, they all have a common origin.”

“The Mystic Sky Sect?”

Based on the clues he has now, Li Fan almost instinctively reached this conclusion.

But he felt something was not right.

In Sister Zhao’s Illusory Realm, the two of them had a detailed discussion about the Mystic Sky Sect, the massive force that unified Xuanhuang World in ancient times.

The Mystic Sky Sect, by seizure of Destiny and domination of Tianquan, suppressed the common people all over the world.

The leaders of the sect often named themselves as the Heavenly Kings, or Law Kings.

But the Celestial Doctor and his group…

It seemed like they respected the Heavens.

Those who always followed Confucius and read books, were constantly repeating statements like “Celestial laws are strict, abide by the rules” and “Celestial laws cannot be violated”.

This did not seem to be related to the Mystic Sky Sect that Li Fan knew.

“With the level of cultivation of these people, they couldn’t have popped out of the cracks in stones, leaving no traces to be found.”

“So, what exactly…”

Li Fan couldn’t help but sink into deep thought.

—————–

In the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters, there was a near earth-shattering event.

However, the Misthaven Ocean outside of the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters seemed oblivious to this event.

Other than the recently emerged Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters Relics mysteriously disappearing again.

It had no other impact on the Misthaven Ocean.

But the top powerhouses in the Xuanhuang World are not limited to just the Celestial Doctor.

Even though ordinary cultivators may not know, the Immortal Sovereigns of the Five Elders Organization definitely would have noticed something.

And trouble starts from petty issues. Li Fan spent a lot of merit points recently, continuously collecting those bits of information that ordinary people would overlook. Finally, he dug out some clues.

Firstly, after the Celestial Spirit State War, in the areas on the border of the Five Elders Organization domain, which were still occupied by some cultivators.

All the cultivators were called back within a few days.

It seemed they intended to give up their war plans entirely for a long time.

Then, the Five Elders Organization surprisingly sent out envoys on their own initiative, proposing a plan for friendly exchanges between both sides.

They said that because of the mutual conflict between the Five Elders Organization and the Immortal Alliance, they had been isolated for too long.

As a result, they became unfamiliar with each other.

They could take this rare opportunity after the great wars, communicate with each other, and cultivate a friendly relationship.

The Immortal Alliance has not yet officially responded to this plan.

However, the Five Elders Organization’s attitude is indeed intriguing.

You should know that relying on having five Immortal Sovereigns, the Five Elders Organization always acted arbitrarily. They were the type to not reason when they could, even at the cost of acting unreasonable.

But now, they actually took the bold initiative to propose friendly exchanges and alleviate the conflicts between the two sides?

The cultivators who did not understand why, thought it was because the Immortal Alliance had subdued the Five Elder Organization in the Battle of Heavenly Spirit State.

But Li Fan understood, it must have been because the Celestial Doctor took action and was noticed by the five Immortal Sovereigns.

“The previous wars probably had the purpose of testing whether the Law Transmission was still there.”

“Although it did not attract the Law Transmission, it made the Celestial Doctor reveal himself.”

“With the Five Elders Organization being so cautious, could it be that the Celestial Doctor has really reached the Immortal Realm?”

Regarding this, Li Fan still had some doubts in his heart.

Because according to his shallow understanding of the Immortal Realm, after going against the Principles of Heaven and Earth, one becomes a part of Heaven and Earth.

An Immortal Sovereign would have a clear aura of the “Heavenly Dao”.

And the difference between an Immortal Sovereign and a cultivator is like two completely different species, extremely easy to distinguish.

But the Celestial Doctor that Li Fan saw a few times, was lacking the “Heavenly Dao”.

Instead, the aura of “Man” was still very strong in him.

In short, the Celestial Doctor did not look like a powerhouse in the Immortal Realm.
