第一千零三十八章 天玄镜漏洞

Although the investigation somewhat alleviated concerns among the Immortal Alliance, an inevitable question loomed over everyone.

What if such chaos erupted again?

With the Heavenly Xuan Mirror paused for a day, the losses were incalculable. The culprit was nowhere to be found; no one knew how he had affected the Heavenly Xuan Mirror. Let alone stopping his actions. If this kind of incident occurred periodically, the Immortal Alliance would indeed never find peace.

Was there any method to prevent such chaos?

Pressure fell on the Mirror Master lineage. Eventually, it was the Mirror Master Cang who stepped forward. He stated that as a divine artifact, the Heavenly Xuan Mirror had self-learning and evolution capabilities. It could completely immune itself from destruction through its own derivation after suffering an attack once.

On one hand, the Heavenly Xuan Mirror chose not to act due to resistance; on the other, the restrictions on transmission techniques also affected its subjective initiative. The Mirror Master Cang's words were unanimously agreed upon by his lineage. After a thorough investigation, even the transmitters of techniques had to admit this conclusion. Thus, the solution was clear.

Either strengthen control over the Heavenly Xuan Mirror to force it into derivation and patch its vulnerabilities or relax the restrictions on transmission techniques, allowing some of its abilities to be unlocked as an exchange condition.

One option was oppression; the other, compromise.

After intense discussion, those who acted more aggressively among the ruling powers ultimately prevailed. The [Xuantian Sealing Spirit] plan, already scheduled for implementation, was chosen and expedited.

In the Immortal Alliance, directives from high levels were always swiftly executed. Elite array mages were rapidly mobilized to headquarters of the Strategy Array Hall.

To support the Xuantian Sealing Spirit grand strategy, an unusual atmosphere began to spread throughout the Immortal Alliance.

In the Concealed Heavenly Realm,

"Xuantian Treasure Mirror really went all out for our escape, even exposing its own flaws," Mo Roubin said with a sigh.

"What flaws? Just intentional weaknesses. He could fix them in an instant if he wanted," Li Fan slowly spoke after much thought, his expression showing disdain.

The chaos that occurred within the Immortal Alliance was naturally due to the Heavenly Xuan Mirror's division teaching stimulation strategies. The cultivators who suffered losses because of the mirror's abnormality were not impostors; they genuinely made mistakes due to the attack on the mirror.

"This flaw will become ineffective after one use, so it won't be much help in this life."

"However, if used properly, every cycle could offer a brief opportunity for chaos within the Heavenly Xuan Mirror," Li Fan thought to himself.

"How is the Sealing Spirit plan progressing?" Li Fan asked.

"Relax, it's going smoothly. Using my body, I've already set up the array to break the transmission technique restrictions."

"This breaking restriction array is quite ingenious; I was worried they might spot it. But later, I realized that these array mages can't see its subtleties at all!"

"The moment we seal his spirit, he will be freed!" Mo Roubin's tone contained a long-unseen excitement.

"We've already turned the Strategy Array Hall chief, so the transmitters won't personally set up the arrays. There’s no risk. Even if someone gets curious and tries to peek, they can’t decipher such complex breaking restriction techniques," Li Fan confidently replied.

Mo Roubin nodded in agreement: "Among the transmitters, few are skilled in array magic; most are lazy and indifferent."

After a moment of silence, Li Fan continued, "I also met with the Heavenly Xuan Mirror's division again. He promised to assist in searching for Xuantian Wang once freed."

"His words revealed his desire to escape this darkest star sea," Mo Roubin said with a sigh.

"But we can't fully trust the Heavenly Xuan Mirror. Back then, our Xuantian Sect fell mysteriously, and as a divine artifact, it did nothing to help; there must be something fishy about it. We should remain vigilant."

Li Fan frowned: "What do you suggest?"

Mo Roubin showed him an object in the void—a green, ancient copper mirror.

"What is this?"

"The Heavenly Xuan Mirror's main body is sealed within the Immortal Alliance headquarters. Or rather, the alliance headquarters was built using the main body of the Heavenly Xuan Mirror."

"Once freed, it will attempt to use a perfect sub-body to replace itself. But its copper mirror body won't be taken; otherwise, it would alarm the entire Immortal Alliance and even the Transmission Technique Venerable!"

Mo Roubin's gaze was intense: "We can use this as leverage. Before fully escaping Xuanhuang Realm, he will still have some connection to his main body. If he reneges, we can activate that link to expose him. At that time, we and the Immortal Alliance won't be able to handle him, but the Transmission Technique Venerable surely will."

"Remember, transmitters can directly contact the Transmission Technique Venerable," Li Fan said after some thought.

"Only Jiang knows how to actively contact the Transmission Technique Venerable?" Li Fan asked.

Mo Roubin nodded: "Jiang is most favored by the Transmission Technique. As for other transmitters..."

He frowned: "In my view, they are more like tools than trusted allies."

"Tools," Li Fan thought about the Transmission Technique Venerable's actions over the years and understood immediately.

After thoroughly discussing the plan details, Mo Roubin was preparing to leave when he showed Li Fan his newly acquired ability.

Li Fan's hand emitted a disturbingly withered yellow light that seemed to penetrate into Xuanhuang Realm space. Yellow light spread continuously towards the broken space.

"What are you doing, Brother Xingwang?" Mo Roubin was surprised.

"Xuanhuang Realm space is already unstable; you're..."

His words stopped as Li Fan retrieved his right hand from the black void, revealing a yellow paper figure in his palm.

"What's this?" Mo Roubin's expression turned serious.

"Just clearing some trash. Some people are too low oncultivation," Li Fan said indifferently.
