Li Fan slowly regained consciousness, feeling his twenty-year-old young body, and looking at the familiar yet strange surroundings, it took him a long time to come to his senses.

In his previous life, which lasted only 48 years, it felt longer to Li Fan than the previous nine lives combined.

Apart from the fact that the experiences in the cultivation world were far more exciting and complex than his life as a mortal in Da Xuan, the key reason was also the assimilation he experienced when sensing the natural qi through the Canghai Pearl.

Of course, his first foray into the cultivation world also brought him extraordinary gains.

Li Fan looked at the first option, the item he could choose to retain.

The storage ring purchased from the Tianxuan Mirror and various scriptures were naturally included, as were the extraordinary objects: the Stopping Stele and the Canghai Pearl.

Li Fan's mind focused on the Canghai Pearl, and he realized that if he chose the Canghai Pearl, he would receive the one that had already formed to a large extent by the end of his previous life.

Having been in harmony with the Canghai Pearl's will for over a decade, Li Fan was well aware of its power.

Although Li Fan was tempted, he resolutely chose the second option, retaining his cultivation realm.

After all, cultivation was the foundation. A mere mortal holding a treasure would only invite disaster.

Moreover, Li Fan knew that the Canghai Pearl was still on Liuyun Island, and he could retrieve it when the time came.

As Li Fan made his decision, two familiar spiritual energies appeared in his dantian.

At the same time, Li Fan's expression changed.

He suddenly realized that he was still just a mortal at this moment.

His body was still filled with the Immortal-Mortal Miasma, and if the sudden appearance of spiritual energy conflicted with it, the consequences could be dire.

Fortunately, the feared situation did not occur.

A mysterious fluctuation descended upon Li Fan, and after a moment, the spiritual energy in his dantian surged like a river, sweeping through his entire body, transforming it and enhancing his realm.

Initial Qi Cultivation, Middle Qi Cultivation, Late Qi Cultivation!

In just a few breaths, he achieved the realm he had struggled to reach in his previous life, exhausting his life force.

Li Fan's aura gradually stabilized.

His face, however, was filled with a strange shock.

It was not because he had achieved Late Qi Cultivation in an instant, but because of the mysterious fluctuation that had descended upon him!

Li Fan clearly felt that the Immortal-Mortal Miasma in his body had vanished completely the moment the fluctuation arrived, far more effectively than the forced expulsion through the Purifying Spirit Pool Array in his previous life.

"This fluctuation..." Li Fan carefully recalled the fleeting fluctuation, sensing a vague familiarity.

"It's the will of heaven and earth, the power of the law!" Li Fan suddenly realized.

In his previous life, he had observed the natural qi for over a decade through the Canghai Pearl. Although he was far from mastering it, he could still recognize it.

"If the Immortal-Mortal Miasma is the will of heaven and earth that separates immortals and mortals, then the fluctuation just now was completely opposite."

"The Immortal-Mortal Miasma, which has plagued the cultivation world for over a thousand years, vanished so easily."

"Truly, it is incomprehensible."

"If I could master this method of purifying the Immortal-Mortal Miasma..." Li Fan's thoughts surged.

After a long while, he slowly calmed down.

A nine-story platform starts with a pile of earth. With his current Qi Cultivation realm, trying to replicate the power of the law was like a dreamer's fantasy.

He had to take it step by step.

Li Fan opened the Zhen panel and reviewed his previous life.

"The path of cultivation is extremely arduous, especially in this world where cultivators vie for heaven and earth, and the world is filled with danger."

"In my previous life, when I first entered the cultivation world, I met Su Changyu. I thought he had noble aspirations and a heart for the Dao, and would surely achieve something. Who would have thought he would die mysteriously after just a few days."

"On the contrary, Xiao Heng, who was unremarkable at his side, had extraordinary talent and was expected to reach the Dao Foundation realm in just a few years."

"He Zhenghao and I both believed he would achieve the Golden Core realm in his lifetime, but who would have thought..."

"Heaven had already laid the trap. The countless beings in the Congyun Sea, whether they were cultivators or mortals, were destined to die."

"Only the ordinary fisherman Zhang Haobo escaped and had a strange encounter, becoming a Foundation Establishment cultivator."

"Life is unpredictable, nothing more so than this."

Li Fan recalled his previous life and felt an infinite sense of emotion.

Then, a bit of doubt arose in his heart.

"As I told Xiao Heng before, if the government wants to surround and kill bandits, they won't let the bandits know in advance. This world and the cultivators are like the government and the bandits."

"So when heaven initiates the killing intent to eliminate cultivators, the cultivators naturally cannot sense it. This is why when I asked the Tianxuan Mirror if there was any disaster, it said no. It was just being obscured by the heavenly will."

"Then why did the Wan Hua Chamber of Commerce seem to have sensed it early and ordered all its subordinates to withdraw from the Congyun Sea?"

"And why didn't they warn the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance, allowing countless lives to be lost?"

"There must be something fishy about this. If I have the chance in this life, I must find out the truth."

After careful consideration, Li Fan made plans for this life.

"The cultivation world is extremely dangerous. It's best not to rashly enter it before the virtualization recharge is complete."

"Currently, I am cultivating the Xuanhuang Heart Cultivation Spell, which greatly accelerates the recharge speed. I don't need to spend twenty years to complete it as before. I should be able to reach 100% within ten years."

"This way, my arrival in the cultivation world this time should be about ten years earlier than in my previous life."

"I remember that something significant happened in the Congyun Sea during these ten years. I can make early plans."

"Also, after the Congyun Sea dried up in my previous life, I saw treasures hidden on various islands. Now, they are unknown to anyone, and if I have the chance, I should retrieve them one by one."

"The Xuanhuang Heart Cultivation Spell helped me break through difficulties multiple times in my previous life. This cultivation technique is truly extraordinary and seems to have a deeper background. I must cultivate it diligently and not slack off."

"As for the Red Flame Burning Sea, whether I choose to escape alone or make it public..."

"I can only adapt to the situation when the time comes..."

......

In his previous life, Li Fan plunged into the unfamiliar cultivation world, only to reach the Late Qi Cultivation realm and die after 48 years.

But in this life, with his foresight, Li Fan believed he could go much further.
