Chapter 303: Chapter 283: The Immortal Captures Qianmo

The secret room below was not lit and was shrouded in absolute darkness.

However, under Li Fan’s Divine Awareness, the scene inside was revealed entirely.

He flicked a spark from his hand, igniting the already present candles.

In the flickering candlelight, Li Fan’s expression gradually turned solemn.

In this neither large nor small space, a faceless stone statue was erect against the wall.

In the middle was a long, blackish-brown wooden table.

On the table, one could vaguely see traces of blood coagulated into a dark red color.

A wooden box was placed at the corner of the table.

Li Fan opened the box to find hammers, knives, nails, needles and other unknown tools inside.

And along the wall, many transparent pots were lined up.

In the pots, many odd-shaped organs were soaked in an unknown liquid.

In one corner, Li Fan also saw several specimens of juvenile human skeletons.

“Mr. Bai…”

With an inexplicable expression, Li Fan continued to comb through the secret room.

In another corner, he found the traces on the ground were different from other places.

His Divine Awareness penetrated deep into the ground.

There was actually one, two…

Twenty-eight sets of bones buried.

Judging by the remains, all of them were half-human, half-beast existences like the “puppy” in the small temple.

Besides, there were no other findings in the secret room.

Instead of acting hastily, Li Fan began to think on the spot.

Given what he discovered in this secret room, Mr. Bai’s fa?ade of being the “kindest person in the world” seemed to be under challenge.

But…

It could not be completely overturned yet.

When Da Xuan was still a mortal, presiding over a region.

Li Fan had judged countless cases.

Among them, some seemingly simple ones often had hidden undertones.

Just take the situation in front of him, for instance.

Perhaps Mr. Bai was superb at masquerading.

Although he seemed extremely kind on the surface, he could actually be a terribly wicked person inside.

The bones buried deep underground could all be victims of his hands.

Even the half-human half-beast beings in Ningyuan City could have been caused by him, given his mastery over medical arts.

And his help to the orphans in the small temple might just be a convenient way to select research subjects.

But it could also be possible that Mr. Bai did not masquerade at all.

The specimens and bones in the secret room were merely for his study of medical arts.

As a man who had traveled through worlds, Li Fan found this easy to accept.

However, in Ningyuan City, this might be considered scandalous.

The reason for conducting his research in this underground chamber could be that his work was misunderstood by people and he had no other choice but to do so.

Both possibilities existed.

The truth of the matter still needs verification by Li Fan himself.

What was almost certain by now was that the master of this Remnant Thought Time-Space was this “Mr. Bai” whom he had never met before.

Li Fan decided to stick to his original plan – to resolve the Ningyuan Life Fruit incident without causing any casualties first.

After making his decision, he centered his gaze on the slightly incomplete stone statue.

It seemed to have been a long time since the statue was made.

The signs of the years and vicissitudes were evident all over it, unable to regain its past sanctity.

The faceless figure was silently staring back at Li Fan.

“Such a large stone. It should be more than enough to craft two or three sets of Immortal Spirit Extinguishing Needles.”

This was what Li Fan had in mind.

He glanced at the wooden box in the middle and was very satisfied.

“Hmm, very good, the tools have been prepared for me.”

Without further hesitation, Li Fan maneuvered the tools such as hammers, nails, and knives with his Divine Awareness.

With the sounds of clanging.

Soon after, dozens of slender Immortal Seal Stone Needles were completed and were placed one by one by Li Fan on the long table in the basement.

“Now, it’s time to see if the Immortal Spirit Extinguishing Needle could control Elder Brother Zhang.”

“If it could…”

“Chu Liang and the others are nothing but small potatoes, I can easily capture them using the Binding Worm Divine Technique.”

“As for Song Hesong, I can use the same technique with the Immortal Seal Stone Needle to subdue him.”

“Hmm, this Immortal Seal Stone cannot be stored in the Storage Ring, so I need you to step into the trap.”

After some thought, Li Fan returned to the surface and placed that piece of Absolute Immortal stone tablet into the basement.

Then he sent a message to Senior Brother Zhang.

“Senior Brother, come quickly, I’ve made a significant discovery!”

Li Fan then returned to the Underground Secret Chamber, blew out the candle, and quietly awaited the arrival of Senior Brother Zhang.

After a short while, he heard Zhang Qianmo’s voice from above: “Hmm? Junior Brother, what have you discovered in this secret room?”

“So many skeletons…”

“Hmm? Beasts!?”

Upon detecting the half-beast half-human skeletons in the secret room, Zhang Qianmo’s tone suddenly darkened.

Anger began to show subtly.

He descended into the Underground Secret Chamber.

“Senior Brother, not only are there several strangely shaped skeletons here, but there is also a bizzare stone statue.”

“I have no idea where it came from.”

In the darkness, Li Fan slowly approached Zhang Qianmo, pointing at the increasingly broken stone statue and said.

Unable to sense with his divine sense, Zhang Qianmo noticed the Faceless Stone Statue not far away, under the subtle light shining from above.

He was shocked to exclaim, “Mystic Sky God Statue?”

Just at that moment, Li Fan behind him abruptly stabbed a long and slender stone needle into the position corresponding to his Dantian in his back.

The needle went right through him.

Zhang Qianmo let out a muffled hum.

Unexpectedly, his beloved junior brother would backstab him. Zhang Qianmo seemed to realize something, his expression greatly changed and readied to counterattack.

But, the Spiritual Energy circulation in his Dantian was delayed, and the execution of his Violet Firmament Divine Thunder was slowed by a breath.

In this mere instant, another stone needle was fiercely stabbed into his chest’s Tanzhong acupoint.

Then, it continued relentlessly.

Altogether, thirty-six Immortal Seal Stone Needles sealed all the crucial acupuncture points of Zhang Qianmo.

His whole body’s aura plummeted, and now, the Senior Brother Zhang whose strength was at the Foundation Establishment Phase, surprisingly became as powerless as a mortal.

“Immortal Spirit Annihilation…”

“Mystic Sky Sect remnants…”

Even though he was captured, there was little panic on Zhang Qianmo’s face.

He stared at Li Fan and hissed in resentment.

“You are not Li Chen!”

“What have you done to my Junior Brother?”

Li Fan didn’t expect that the effect of the Immortal Seal Stone Needle was so good, that he easily immobilized Senior Brother Zhang.

After hearing him mistake himself for some “Mystic Sky Sect remnants,” Li Fan felt a slight stir in his heart.

But his face remained calm and he said casually, “Senior Brother, you’re really confused. Don’t you recognize me?”

Then, he recounted one by one those past events from Li Chen’s memory that only the two of them, as brothers, would know.

Zhang Qianmo’s expression kept changing, full of suspicion and uncertainty.

“Was Junior Brother’s mind searched? No, with the protection of the Violet Firmament Divine Thunder, he has no fears of the Soul Searching Technique…”

“Could it be…”

Zhang Qianmo’s face turned completely gloomy.

“I didn’t expect, Junior Brother, you were secretly planted by the Mystic Sky Sect in our Violet Firmament Sect since you were very young?”

Li Fan was speechless in his heart.

However, he noticed that Zhang Qianmo seemed confident and not worried about his situation.

On the contrary, he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to probe.

So, Li Fan decided to play along.

“Senior Brother, you’re joking. What’s the Mystic Sky Sect? I really don’t know anything about it.”

Li Fan shrugged his shoulders, looking innocently and said.

“Don’t know?”

Zhang Qianmo sneered.

“By this point, just stop pretending.”

“Hiding a Mystic Sky God Statue, carrying out suspicious activities.”

“Except for the Mystic Sky Sect remnants, who could it be?”

“Junior Brother, you’ve hidden this very well over the years.”
