Chapter 1465 Old He, See You Again If Fate Destines It

"I'll go..."

Just as Su Fan was looking helpless and worried about having no one to share his burdens, a gentle voice suddenly sounded from his side.

Ji Feng was also very curious about the origin of evil spirits and wanted to stay and explore it together, but seeing the anxiety between Su Fan's brows, he finally took the initiative to speak.

He planned to help Su Fan build a portal to the stars to solve his immediate problem.

The star gates that Su Fan had seen before were mostly large passages that allowed multiple people to pass through at the same time. They were not only massive projects, but also required a huge amount of materials and time.

A star gate that can only allow one person to pass through is much simpler to build: as long as there are enough materials, it can be built in just a few days.

But the moment the word "materials" was mentioned, Su Fan's heart sank.

The array materials he had were exhausted of spiritual energy when he broke through his cultivation realm, and now all that was left was a pile of useless scrap metal, which was completely unusable.

Fortunately, the materials required for the Star Gate are not particularly rare.

In his personal secret realm, there are still several buildings that were built earlier, along with the temples that Sister Zhen managed. The spiritual energy of these building materials was not taken away by the Yin God, and they can be put to good use.

Su Fan immediately contacted Sister Zhen and asked her to lead her ghost soldiers and generals to demolish all the buildings and temples and dismantle them for usable materials.

After a lot of hard work, they finally managed to gather enough resources to build the Star Gate.

Over the next few days, Su Fan and Ji Feng worked almost day and night.

However, Ji Feng was mostly responsible for the core construction work, while Su Fan assisted him and took the opportunity to learn how to build the Star Gate.

A few days later, when the star gate, several meters in size and surrounded by faint spatial fluctuations, appeared completely before his eyes, Su Fan finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

The passage back was finally cleared, and my heart, which had been hanging in suspense for many days, finally settled down.

Ji Feng had considered everything very carefully, and deliberately built the Star Gate in a relatively secluded mountain forest nearby.

More importantly, this Star Gate can be reused, which means that from now on, Su Fan will have a stable passage between the Evil Spirit Realm and the outside world.

In this world of cultivation, controlling such a stable passage to the realm of evil spirits is an incredibly precious opportunity.

If those powerful figures in the Integration Realm knew about this, they would probably fight for it at all costs, even lining up to break down Su Fan's doorstep, just to get a chance to use the passage.

After all, in the cultivation world, once a cultivator breaks through to the Integration Realm, the growth of their soul becomes extremely slow, almost stagnant.

Even the slightest improvement in one's soul requires a massive amount of resources and a long time, making it extremely difficult.

The source of evil spirits is one of the few top-grade treasures in the entire cultivation world that can rapidly enhance the divine sense of a Nascent Soul Realm expert, and its value is self-evident.

Su Fan turned his head and glanced in the direction of the Evil Spirit Realm again, then stepped into the Star Gate without hesitation.

He had only recently broken through to the Integration Realm and needed to find a place rich in spiritual energy to stabilize his cultivation and prevent damage to his foundation.

The spiritual energy in the evil realm is thin, making it unsuitable for human cultivators.

In the mortal world of "New Guangtian," near Xihe Town, which is under the jurisdiction of Lishui County, lies a quiet mountain forest.

In the early hours of the morning, when all was quiet, a starry sky gate several meters high suddenly appeared out of thin air.

Su Fan stepped out of the Star Gate, took a deep breath of the fresh air carrying the fragrance of grass and trees, and felt completely refreshed.

I finally escaped from that hellish place, the realm of evil spirits. It's not a place for humans to live.

He looked up at the bright moon and stars in the night sky, and the fatigue of the past few days seemed to be dispelled by the pleasant night.

Su Fan turned around and looked towards Xihe Town in the distance, then strode forward.

But before they had taken more than a few steps, something terrifying suddenly happened.

The grass beneath his feet seemed to be injected with some kind of power, growing wildly and reaching several feet in height in an instant, its leaves twisting and deforming violently.

In just a short while, the grass under his feet had become grotesque and terrifying, exuding a strange and evil aura.

What the hell...

Su Fan instantly realized that these small grasses were transforming into "strange things".

Thinking of this, a layer of cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead, and he hurriedly waved his hand to activate an extremely hot Yang-type Earthly Fiend.

With a "whoosh," the sprouting grass instantly turned to ashes and vanished without a trace.

Su Fan frowned and pondered for a moment, then his eyes suddenly sharpened.

He probed his body with his divine sense, scanning it carefully several times, but found nothing unusual.

What on earth is going on? Has Lao Tzu also become a monster?

Su Fan dared not move at this moment.

If they simply walked all the way to Xihe Town, who knows how many strange things would happen.

If these strange creatures were to fall into the mortal world, they would surely cause great chaos.

It is important to understand that the most terrifying aspect of the supernatural is that once many evil spirits and corpses are tainted by their malevolent energy, they can transform into new supernatural beings, with unimaginable consequences.

No, we have to get to the bottom of this.

Thinking of this, Su Fan's figure flickered, and he instantly entered his personal secret realm.

He walked straight to the gloomy valley and sat down cross-legged on the stone platform.

At this moment, Lao Long Li Gao, Xie Fo Lao Wang, and others were gathered together, engrossed in studying the object that was the origin of evil spirits. Even though Su Fan had been there for a long time, no one noticed him.

"Senior Li Gao, could you please come here for a moment? I have something urgent to discuss with you..."

Left with no other option, Su Fan had to take the initiative to call out names.

Upon hearing this, Lao Long Li Gao turned around impatiently, his tone tinged with impatience.

"Don't cause trouble, kid. Can't you see I'm busy?"

"Senior, this matter is truly important, please allow me to say a few words..."

Seeing that Su Fan's tone was urgent and not joking, Lao Long Li Gao had no choice but to walk over reluctantly.

"Speak, what is it..."

Su Fan quickly recounted in detail the strange events that had occurred after he stepped out of the Star Gate, when the grass beneath his feet transformed into something bizarre.

Upon hearing this, Lao Long Li Gao's brows furrowed instantly.

"According to you, this matter is probably related to your breakthrough to the Integration Realm in the Evil Spirit Realm..."

Su Fan was immediately bewildered. What did breaking through realms have to do with creating strange beings?

Seeing his puzzled expression, Lao Long Li Gao had no choice but to patiently explain.

"As far as I know, human cultivators in ancient times often chose to break through in special environments, so that their magical power and supernatural abilities would acquire the characteristics of that environment. Your breakthrough in the evil spirit realm might be because the evil spirit energy has tainted your soul or magical power..."

At this point, Lao Long Li Gao glanced at Su Fan.

"Here's what you'd like to do: try casting a spell..."

Su Fan raised his hand as instructed and unleashed the "Water Mirror Technique".

A flash of inspiration appeared a few meters away, and a water mirror several meters in size instantly took shape.

But the next second, Su Fan was stunned.

A gray-black mist was constantly overflowing from the edge of the water mirror, and countless hideous tentacles were constantly condensing in the mist, twisting and writhing violently on the mirror surface.

What's even more terrifying is that even the reflection of oneself in the water mirror exudes an indescribable strangeness.

Although its appearance hasn't changed, it gives people the creeps and exudes an eerie aura.

What the hell...

Upon seeing this, Lao Long Li Gao chuckled softly.

"Looks like I was right. It's okay, you'll get used to it..."

How am I supposed to get used to this?

"Senior, is it possible for me to conceal this eerie aura normally...?"

Old Long Li Gao shook his head and said, "I can't help you with that. I don't know much about the cultivation methods of the human race's Daoist sects..."

After saying that, he turned around and called out to the lamp base not far away, "Old Wang, come here for a second..."

The Evil Buddha Old King walked over impatiently, his tone exactly like Li Gao's. "Why did you call me? Can't you see I'm researching the primordial essence...?"

But after hearing about Su Fan's experience, he couldn't help but frown.

“I’ve never even heard of a situation like yours, let alone seen one before. If what Li Gao says is true, this is really difficult to handle…”

After pondering for a moment, Lao Long Li Gao said to Su Fan, "Try practicing this technique and see if there's any difference compared to before..."

Su Fan immediately sat cross-legged and began to circulate the "Primordial Qi Transformation Scripture".

A moment later, he opened his eyes and didn't feel anything was wrong.

He thought for a moment and then began to circulate the "Nine Netherworld Yellow Springs Embryo Origin Nourishing Heart Seal Scripture".

This time, he sensed something was wrong as soon as he activated his technique.

Su Fan stood up and recounted in detail his experience of cultivating the two techniques.

After listening, the Evil Buddha Old King said thoughtfully, "I knew it. You possess both the Thunder Dao Body and the Yang Fiend Dharma Body, so the evil spirit energy shouldn't be able to remain in your body at all. Now it seems that the evil spirit energy isn't affecting your magic power, but rather your soul..."

What the heck...

Su Fan almost didn't react, and couldn't help but complain in his heart.

So, according to you, I'm suffering from a mental illness?

Despite his inward disapproval, he felt that Old Wang's words made sense.

"Old Wang, how do I collect the soul that has been affected by the evil spirit's energy..."

"Years ago, I knew a talented but heretical cultivator who created a 'Dual Soul Dao Technique' that allowed him to condense a second Yin Spirit within his own body and even create an avatar..." Old Wang said slowly.

"While this method cannot fundamentally solve your problem, it can temporarily separate the soul affected by the evil spirit from the normal soul, thus having a restraining effect..."

Su Fan understood immediately; wasn't this equivalent to "schizophrenia"?

However, this method can indeed solve the immediate problem, at least it will prevent you from causing strange occurrences after taking a few steps.

As for creating a clone, he dared not think about it for the time being.

If you can't even control your own aura, what if your clone goes out of control and causes even bigger trouble?

The wild grass had already transformed into something strange after only a few steps; that power was frightening enough.

Subsequently, the Evil Buddha Old King taught Su Fan this dual-soul cultivation technique in detail.

Although he had learned the technique, Su Fan still needed to figure out how to condense the second Yin Spirit on his own.

For the next ten days or so, Su Fan stayed in the Gathering Yin Secret Realm, diligently studying this dual-soul Dao technique.

After countless attempts, he finally found the trick and successfully condensed a second Yin spirit within his body.

The specific method involves constantly refining the soul through the internal thunder and lightning.

The power of thunder is inherently effective against evil spirits. Under the siege of thunder, the evil spirit energy mixed in the sea of ​​consciousness was forced to flee in all directions.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Su Fan activated the Dual Soul Dao Technique, separating the divine consciousness tainted by evil spirit energy and condensing it into a sinister Yin spirit within his body.

As soon as this almost bizarre second Yin spirit took shape, it was suppressed by Su Fan's original Yin spirit and could only condense into a ball of gray-black aura, obediently staying in a corner of his sea of ​​consciousness, not daring to cause any trouble.

Only then did Su Fan truly breathe a sigh of relief.

Although this was only a temporary measure, it at least solved the problem of him giving birth to the strange creatures.

At dawn, a milky white mist, like a veil, permeated the sky and earth, enveloping the entire town of Xihe.

Su Fan's clone was sleeping soundly in the room. The next second, the clone suddenly opened its eyes and slowly sat up from the bed.

Immediately afterwards, Su Fan's true form appeared inside the room, while his clone slowly dissipated like water vapor, as if it had never existed.

Although it is only a clone, the habits of the original body and the clone have long been synchronized.

It's impossible to hide it from high-level cultivators, but it's definitely no problem to keep it from the mortals of "Xihe Town".

He got up to wash up and start a fire to cook, just like he always did.

After a while, scattered footsteps and hawking sounds came from outside the town, and Xihe Town gradually became lively, and a new day began.

After finishing my meal, I went to the shop in the other dimension. Looking at the furniture and wooden ornaments that had been made in the shop over the past few days, I couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion.

He created all these things in the shop himself, and he was really reluctant to leave this place before he left.

Su Fan took out a silk scarf from his pocket and slowly wiped each item in the shop.

He cleaned very carefully, spending the entire morning polishing everything in the shop until it shone brightly.

Su Fan took a deep breath, glanced at the items in the shop again, and turned to leave.

Just then, He Song walked in from outside.

"Old Su, let's have a drink at noon today..."

Lately, He Song has been coming to the shop every few days to drink with Su Fan's clone.

"I'm afraid it won't work today. I have to go on a long trip later..."

He Song looked disappointed upon hearing this.

"If you need anything, feel free to go. While you're away, I'll take care of the shop..."

After saying that, he walked into the yard, put the several oil paper packages in his hand on the table, and then sat down.

Su Fan followed him into the courtyard and sat down opposite him.

"Let's grab a couple of bites while you're still here..."

After He Song finished speaking, he opened several oil paper packages, broke the mud seal on a jar of wine, and poured a bowl for Su Fan.

Su Fan took the wine bowl handed to him, took a big gulp, and then glanced at He Song.

This guy took a sip of his drink and happened to look over.

"Old Su, you seem a bit off today..."

Something's not right...

"I can't quite put my finger on it, but it feels like you've become a different person..."

After hearing He Song's words, Su Fan did not reply, but instead picked up the wine bowl and took another sip.

He originally intended to leave Xihe Town quietly, but he didn't expect to see this guy before leaving.

If that's the case, it means the two of them are destined to be together.

Alright, then I'll grant his request.

Su Fan gently raised his hand and pointed, and He Song on the other side immediately shivered, then felt as if his whole body had been branded with a red-hot iron.

He Song tried to stand up, but he couldn't move at all. The pain was so intense that he couldn't even scream. He could only grit his teeth and endure it silently.

He stared intently at Su Fan opposite him, his eyes filled with hatred and resentment.

Faced with the guy's fierce gaze, Su Fan chuckled.

Su Fan stood up, walked behind He Song, and tapped the guy a few times.

He first used the thunder and lightning of heaven and earth to temper He Song's bones and marrow, cleansing his body and removing impurities and hidden injuries.

He Song, a martial artist specializing in external martial arts, had all his internal injuries accumulated over many years removed in one day.

Su Fan then used his spiritual energy to open up all the meridians in his body, allowing this guy to leap into the realm of innate martial artists.

He will live a life free from illness and disaster, and his lifespan will reach 120 years. If he encounters some further opportunities, he may live even longer.

Not only that, he also left a physical cultivation and internal training method in He Song's mind.

Finally, Su Fan came up to Lao He and patted him on the shoulder.

"Old He, see you again someday..."

After Su Fan finished speaking, he smiled at him, and then his figure slowly disappeared into the air.
