Chapter 383: 359: Scrambled Words Seal the Mystical Realm
Translator: 549690339
It seemed that with the passage of time, the stone fragment had lost its original power.
Li Fan paused for a moment, then held his breath and slowly approached.
He walked up to the stone fragment without feeling any changes in himself.
However, Li Fan was still cautious.
This was a mystical realm overflowing with all sorts of weird phenomena. One could not afford to let their guard down.
He didn’t touch the stone fragment but distanced himself to observe it again.
Half of the stone fragment was buried in the ground, the overall shape was more or less a square, about the width of a person’s outstretched arms.
Its edge bore noticeable traces of fragmentation.
It looked as if it had been separated from a whole stone.
The “chaos” character on it should be surrounded by other characters.
Regrettably, it was just a standalone “chaos” with no trace of any other characters before or after it.
“Looking at the stone fragment, it does not seem to have naturally split. It seems more like it was deliberately cut by someone.”
“Chaos.”
“The bizarre phenomena of disoriented directions and even human body distortions in this area around the huge circular pit, could it have anything to do with this character?”
“If a single character could instigate so many bizarre phenomena…”
“What does this Chaotic Character Stone have to do with the Celestial Doctor?”
After a moment of contemplation, Li Fan decided not to dwell on it for now and went on to examine the surroundings to see if there were any signs of an “exit.”
Unfortunately, other than some unknown sticky substance all over the bottom of the circular pit…
There was only this Chaotic Character Stone.
“The monster should only be acting on instinct now, it shouldn’t be fooling me.”
Thinking it over, Li Fan returned to the stone fragment, channeled his spiritual power, and lifted it from the ground.
It wasn’t any extraordinary treasure but about the weight of a regular stone.
Moreover, after pulling it out, there was no hidden exit revealed beneath the stone fragment as he had anticipated.
Nothing unusual happened at all.
“Strange…”
Li Fan put down the Chaotic Character Stone and stroked his chin.
Time was running out, and he couldn’t spend more time searching for other possibilities.
He stared intently at the stone in front of him, thinking about where the exit might be hidden.
He couldn’t afford to waste time, so after a moment, Li Fan pointed his finger and shot a beam of Dark Light at it.
As he was retreating, he watched the changes caused by the collision between the Serenity Blade and the Chaotic Character Stone.
The black Sword Light shot towards the stone fragment almost instantly.
Right before the Sword Light was about to collide with the stone, the black light all of a sudden began to twist.
Under Li Fan’s gaze, three energies he was all too familiar with extracted from the black light.
Insane, pitch black, swirling…
These were the three powers that constitute the Great Five Elements Annihilation Sword: Sky Killing, Mo Sha, and the Power of Five Elements.
Under the influence of the Chaotic Character Stone, the black light gradually faded away.
Then, these energies, which should have been under Li Fan’s control, started fighting each other.
At the same time, a strange fluctuation erupted violently from the Chaotic Character Stone.
It swept across the area centered around the circular pit.
Caught off guard, Li Fan was unable to avoid it and was pierced right through.
His face changed instantly as he thought he had been tricked.
However, to his surprise, the fluctuation was all bark and no bite.
He only felt a tingling sensation all over his body as if ants were crawling on him, but after a round of circulating spiritual energy, it was quickly suppressed.
Li Fan paused, looking at the Chaotic Character Stone, deep in thought.
“The ‘chaos’ character has faded, leaving behind only its shape, devoid of spirit.”
“But even so, it can still affect my Five Elements Annihilation Sword.”
Li Fan glanced where the original trio of powers was entangled.
During the previous fluctuation, they had annihilated each other.
The last piece of Black Death Talisman that he wore on his body began to dim to the point where it was almost imperceptible.
It seemed like it would disintegrate any second.
If it had been anyone else in this desperate situation, they would have been in a state of panic, unable to think clearly.
However, Li Fan, with [Real] as his foundation, was not flustered at all.
Not having to worry about his own crisis, Li Fan’s thoughts whirled rapidly, as he continued to contemplate.
After numerous attempts employing different methods, the Black Death Talisman finally disintegrated completely.
The surrounding Element Devouring White Fog, without any constraints, began to consume Li Fan’s lifespan.
Just after a few breaths, Li Fan’s physiological age on [Real] panel jumped from 51 to 52.
Although he was mostly a 51-year-old already, it highlighted the terrifying speed of the Element Devouring White Fog devouring lifespan.
Life visibly whittling away at a breakneck speed didn’t cause Li Fan to panic, instead, it made him more clear-headed.
When Li Fan’s age reached a hundred.CH𝒆Ck for 𝒏ew st𝒐ries on no/v/el/bin(.)c0m
A stroke of luck struck, and Li Fan’s eyes suddenly lightened up.
He leapt to the breaking stone, using his hand as a brush, tracing over the “chaos” character on the stone.
Stroke by stroke, he imitated it.
His brushwork was swift and fluid as if writing a powerful and unrestrained dragon. It was done in an instant.
A faint golden light flashed and vanished.
The “chaos” character on the stone fragment seemed to regain some of its luster.
What shocked Li Fan was that the moment the “chaos” character re-emerged.
His body’s spiritual energy was instantly drained.
If it hadn’t been for the Nine Law Golden Pill sensing the crisis and immediately cycling, transforming the Power of Five Elements into an endless stream of spiritual power to replenish his exhausted body…
He might have been drained completely and collapsed on the spot.
Even so, Li Fan only felt a momentary blackout, almost falling to the ground.
Fortunately, after absorbing all of Li Fan’s spiritual energy, the Chaotic Character Stone also underwent a strange change.
The character seemed to have come alive, naturally emitting a majestic aura that made one’s heart tremble.
And the entire stone became phantom-like.
Releasing a fantastical radiance.
Even the Element Devouring White Fog was pushed back by the radiance emitted by the Chaotic Character Stone, forming a vacuum zone.
Seeing this, Li Fan quickly took cover within it to avoid excessive loss of lifespan.
Perhaps it was because the Chaotic Character Stone was activated this time by absorbing the spiritual energy within Li Fan’s body.
After getting close to the stone fragment, Li Fan did not feel any effects from it.
However, creaking noises came from his surroundings, and the sticky substance scattered all over the ground seemed to come alive, starting to twist and move bizarrely.
Li Fan also noticed keenly that the inanimate, mutated corpses standing in the circular stone pit were trembling slightly as if they would come to life in the next second.
Hair standing on end, Li Fan, the cause of all this, felt a chill run down his spine.
“This is not a place to stay for long.”
Li Fan looked at the twinkling, illusory Chaotic Character Stone and had a hunch.
It felt like a gateway that he could enter at any time.
His spiritual sense didn’t detect any danger ahead. On the contrary, the only sign of life seemed to be within it.
Li Fan didn’t hesitate any longer and lunged at it.
As Li Fan had suspected, the stone was like a phantom.
Li Fan passed right through it.
His vision blurred as he was engulfed by endless White Mist.
Finally, Li Fan had left the fantastically mysterious mystical realm and returned to the normal White Mist Barrier.
