- Chapter 1295 - 1181: Without Beginning or End
“Elder Brother Dade is amazing… he has forged his Life Palace!”
Su Baiqian exclaimed in astonishment.
Long Zixuan and Dugu Yuqing were also somewhat surprised.
In just an instant, Wu Dade’s realm had surpassed theirs.
Though they had also found their own path forward, it wasn’t as pure or direct as Wu Dade’s, so their Life Palaces had yet to fully take shape.
“Is Master at home?”
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the small courtyard.
Li Fan was just about to pack away the Ancient Bronze Lamp and the Sacred Dao Calendar when he heard the voice and paused for a moment.
This is… Lu Rang’s voice!
“It’s Brother Lu Rang and the others!”
Su Baiqian was also overjoyed.
Gong Ya had already gone to open the door.
Soon, Lu Rang and Qing Chen entered, and with them were three others!
Hei Bai Di, Fire Spirit, and Mu Wanqing!
“Junior Brother Lu Rang… you’ve finally returned!”
Long Zixuan and the others were all delighted.
Li Fan was also a little taken aback. These two disciples… actually came back on their own…
He nodded and said:
“It’s good to have you back!”
As Lu Rang and Qing Chen looked around the familiar courtyard, then at Li Fan, Long Zixuan, and the others… their eyes couldn’t help but well up slightly.
“Why are you all here…?”
Lu Rang looked at Long Zixuan and asked.
“Master asked us to return.”
Long Zixuan explained, transmitting the sequence of events to them.
Hearing this, Lu Rang and Qing Chen immediately became solemn… So, the collapse of the Imperial Courts of the Way of Thunder and the Way of Water was Master’s doing…
He does not want them to walk the “A Single Spark Can Start a Prairie Fire” path?
Moreover, they noticed the four Ancient Bronze Lamps on the stone table beside Li Fan, as well as the Sacred Dao Timespace Calendar.
“The Immortal Land and Sacred Soil… were born from Master’s brush…”
“The Lamp of Origin… has been collected by Master.”
The two exchanged a glance.
Then, Qing Chen stepped forward and said:
“Master, we… have brought back two more lamps.”
They brought out two Lamps of Origin.
The black flames had already been ignited.
Seeing the two lamps, Li Fan smiled faintly. Two more had been added.
Now there were six lamps in total…
According to the System, once he gathered all nine, he… would become invincible? Sёarch* The NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Though he greatly doubted the credibility of the System, it was still something to look forward to…
More importantly, as long as these black flames didn’t end up in the hands of the villagers, it would be fine.
Li Fan took the two lamps, examined them carefully, and indeed, just as he had expected, the inscriptions on these lamps were similar to those on the fourth lamp, and also to those on the Sacred Dao Calendar left behind by the Divine Jumper.
This also confirmed that his Sacred Dao Timespace depiction was not flawed.
Li Fan casually set the two lamps aside, then looked at the trio who had arrived with Qing Chen and Lu Rang.
Hei Bai, Fire Spirit, Mu Wanqing!
“The three of you, it’s been a while.”
Li Fan smiled slightly.
Hei Bai’s eyes carried a trace of excitement as he saluted Li Fan and said:
“Greetings, Senior!”
Fire Spirit and Mu Wanqing also bowed respectfully.
In their hearts, they were utterly shaken.
When the Immortal Land and Sacred Soil emerged, they had already guessed it had something to do with Senior Li.
But seeing it in person now, the impact was even more overwhelming and complex.
Senior Li, in this small courtyard, merely painted casually, yet in the vast historical timespace, the lost lands of ancient civilizations were reborn, rewriting the very structure of the world!
Senior Li… is truly the one playing chess with the universe.
“No need for formalities, please have a seat. Gong Ya, pour some tea for everyone.”
Li Fan spoke.
Immediately, Hei Bai, Fire Spirit, and Mu Wanqing also sat down.
“How have things been developing all these years?”
Li Fan asked. He was genuinely curious. To his recollection, Hei Bai, Fire Spirit, and Mu Wanqing didn’t seem to be from the same group… yet here they were together now.
Hei Bai nodded and said:
“Everything is as it should be.”
Four simple words, yet they said it all.
“Hei Bai’s visit here is because he discovered some items, which appear to belong to your two disciples…”
He then produced a blood-stained lock of hair, a sheet of parchment, and a Blood Talisman.
“Senior Sister Zi Ling?”
Su Baiqian exclaimed nervously.
“Junior Brother Lin!”
Wu Dade and the others were astonished as well.
Li Fan took the items, his brow furrowing slightly.
Could it be that the two disciples had encountered danger?
“These items should come from the Taiyin Continent and Taiyang Continent.”
Hei Bai explained, “There have been recent changes in these two continents, but Ziling Maiden and Young Master Lin don’t appear to be in immediate danger. I’ve already sent people to investigate.”
Hei Bai had some understanding of the Path of Creation. With the Kunlun Holy Realm having just been unveiled, even amidst the jealous darkness, the danger should not have fully descended yet.
Hearing this, Li Fan felt a little relieved. Since Hei Bai had sent people to look into it, there was no point in him worrying further at this time.
It was already late today… tomorrow, he would have Dade and the others go out and search!
Li Fan made his decision.
“Thank you for your trouble.”
He expressed his gratitude to Hei Bai.
Hei Bai replied, “To repay the great guidance of Senior, this is but a mere trifle; how could one call it a trouble?”
Li Fan could not help but smile and said:
“Since dinner is not yet ready, what do you say we have a quick game of chess?”
Ever since Yun Xi and Jiang Li had left, it had been a long time since Li Fan last played. Seeing Hei Bai here now, his interest was piqued.
More importantly, Hei Bai had been a great help this time. Li Fan remembered that Hei Bai was once deeply devoted to the path of chess, a master in his own right. However, his chess path still had many areas that were incomplete.
To discuss a game with him now, offering some pointers along the way, could also be considered a small token of thanks.
Hei Bai nodded and said:
“I would be honored.”
Immediately, they set up the chessboard.
Hei Bai made the first move.
The two took turns. Within moments, more than ten moves had been played, and the outline of strategy began to emerge.
“Not bad, not bad.”
Li Fan praised. The current level of Hei Bai’s chess path far exceeded what it had been years ago.
His chess path now flowed seamlessly, appearing endless, like the very essence of Samsara!
“Senior, can this chess path truly endure without end?”
Hei Bai asked.
In his previous life, he had grasped the Path of Reincarnation, just one step away from touching the Supreme.
Yet, he ultimately fell short.
Li Fan replied:
“As the great tides shift and the chess paths cycle, it is indeed possible to touch the path of the endless… but even the endless can be broken. It still bears traces to follow.”
Hei Bai was stunned!
The Path of Reincarnation was regarded as a Supreme Dao. Cultivated to the highest realm, it was said to be “endless”!
But Senior Li had just stated… that the endless could still be broken, that it left traces to follow.
It was not the Invincible Path…
In that case, what good would it do him to prove a Supreme Dao in this life?
Li Fan continued:
“To take Reincarnation one step further, from the beginning point, one must see Without Beginning; from the endpoint, one must see Without End… Without Beginning or End, coming and going without trace, life and death without signs.”
He smiled slightly and added:
“This is also the ultimate of the path of chess.”
The ultimate of the path of chess… Without Beginning or End!
Hei Bai was shaken to his core. At this moment, he could clearly feel that the ultimate gate of the Path of Reincarnation had been pushed open by Senior Li’s mere words, and beyond the gate, he glimpsed even further horizons.
Without Beginning or End, the ultimate of the chess path… He understood that what Li Fan referred to as the ultimate of the chess path was, in fact, the true endpoint of cultivation.
“Without Beginning or End… toward half a step beyond Supreme…”
Hei Bai had already understood his path!
The orthodox cultivation of Reincarnation could reach the realm of Endless, and one could still prove a Supreme Dao.
But only Without Beginning or End could surpass countless Supreme Daos!
“Hei Bai has been enlightened!”
Hei Bai stood up and bowed deeply!
…
Good night.
