第一千一百五十二章 另类玄天器

Sun Family's precious treasure, its exact name and form, was unknown to Wu Ninglu.

However, based on the推测 of Sun Family’s rise, this treasure might be related to derivation and prescience!

About a thousand years ago, Sun Family was merely an ordinary small cultivation clan. The strongest member in the clan was at the Foundation Establishment realm.

But from one day, Sun Family seemed to suddenly have good fortune. Not only did they consecutively breakthrough several Transcendence realms, but they also saved a severely injured Great Practitioner by chance.

Under the protection of this Great Practitioner, Sun Family soared to prominence. The sudden rise of Sun Family naturally attracted attention from various forces. It seemed that it was purely due to luck.

But not everyone believed so, especially those behind the plot that targeted the Great Practitioner saved by Sun Family. It was also the mastermind who sent Wu Ninglu to infiltrate Sun Family with no regard for his reputation.

The Chen Family, one of the largest families in Tianquan State, was well-versed in alchemy and held many important positions in the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance's Alchemy Hall. At that time, they were plotting to kill the Great Practitioner out of old grudges. But their plan, which should have been flawless, was ruined by a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator!

After investigation, it was confirmed there was no leak. Moreover, Sun Family’s Foundation Establishment cultivator suddenly appeared across several states via a teleportation array on the day of the incident, waiting for the severely injured Great Practitioner to escape.

It seemed he had foreknowledge of this event!

This was too out of the ordinary. The Chen Family thus kept an eye on Sun Family from then on. Although there was a significant disparity in strength between the two families under the Immortal Alliance system, the Chen Family dared not directly kill or steal the treasure. Especially after the severely injured Great Practitioner recovered and began to suspect that it might be the work of the Chen Family.

But when the Chen Family finally calmed down from their troubles and regained their composure, Sun Family had already established connections with high-ranking figures in the Immortal Alliance headquarters and moved to Tianquan State. A Great Practitioner was also born within the family.

Sun Family’s rise was too swift, and the coincidences on their path to prosperity convinced the Chen Family that Sun Family must be hiding some extraordinary treasure.

However, Sun Family acted cautiously. Since their foundation had stabilized, they rarely used this treasure.

Although the Chen Family coveted it, they could not find a suitable opportunity to act. Even within the family, people gradually forgot about it until fifty years ago when Sun Family made another grand appearance in the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, reigniting their memories.

At the Immortal Alliance headquarters, on the way to the Guardian Hall, Sun Family’s patriarch recognized one of the Five Elders' spies who had infiltrated them.

He immediately confronted him and fought with him.

This naturally alarmed the high-ranking officials in the Immortal Alliance, who arrested both of them for investigation. It turned out that Sun Family’s patriarch was right!

The spy from the Five Elders held a jade tablet bearing an audience technique and was ordered to attack Derivation Jade using a curse.

Fortunately, it was detected in time to prevent disaster!

After this incident, Sun Family strengthened their position in the Guardian Hall. Meanwhile, the Chen Family refocused on Sun Family.

Through investigation of past events, the spy from the Five Elders had been well-hidden all along, even his closest friends and family never suspected him. But he was instantly recognized by Sun Family’s patriarch!

Although the patriarch insisted it was a gut feeling during interrogation, after thorough investigation by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, they ruled out the possibility of the Five Elders staging this themselves. Many found it hard to understand.

In the end, it was attributed to Sun Family's "good luck."

But several elders from the Chen Family who still remembered that incident immediately recalled their earlier speculations.

From then on, a conspiracy unfolded around Sun Family’s treasure.

Over decades of continuous probing, the Chen Family had gathered several crucial clues.

Firstly, this treasure might not be complete; over the years, Sun Family was secretly searching for something.

Secondly, every time the treasure exerted its power, it seemed to require some form of replenishment. After each remarkable performance by Sun Family, their patriarch would mysteriously disappear for a while.

Thirdly, using the treasure required a sacrifice from Sun Family’s bloodline. Over the years, several of Sun Family's offspring vanished without a trace.

Despite gathering much information, the Chen Family hesitated to act due to the treasure’s seemingly "foreknowledge" ability. If unsuccessful, they might lose this precious treasure forever.

Recently, the Chen Family finally seized an optimal opportunity. A spy discovered the whereabouts of Sun Family’s patriarch, who had been injured while helping the treasure replenish itself. To prevent any mishaps, he would likely return home to recuperate soon.

The treasure was still in its cooling period, and Sun Family’s strongest patriarch was severely wounded.

This was a perfect opportunity!

Thus, the Chen Family risked being discovered and ordered Wu Ninglu to keep an eye on Sun Family’s patriarch.

...

"Who would have thought that the enmity between our two families has lasted for nearly a thousand years."

Upon understanding the background of events, Li Fan found himself even more interested in what was known as Sun Family's treasure.

After all, there were too many similarities between his actions and those of Sun Family’s patriarch.

Li Fan had used the True Zen to turn everything around, achieving prescience.

What ability would Sun Family's treasure possess?

Not long after, Li Fan, with his keen awareness, sensed a disordered Great Practitioner aura returning to Sun Family.

Exiting Wu Ninglu's body, he locked onto the target and quietly approached.

Despite Sun Family’s patriarch’s caution, all of his array prohibitions were rendered meaningless in front of Li Fan.

A fraction of his mind followed him into the secret chamber without detection.

"Keh keh."

Sun Family’s patriarch, Sun Luduan, a Great Practitioner, coughed up several drops of blood.

But he ignored his injuries and carefully retrieved an object from his pocket, placing it back in its original position with concern.

Then, he cut a wound on his wrist and used the blood for ritual purification.

When Li Fan saw this item, both his main body and avatar, which were thousands of miles away, trembled slightly.

"What is..."

"Is that... Celestial Mirror?"

The object Sun Luduan had irrigated with blood resembled the Celestial Mirror.

However, in previous interactions, the light representing the Celestial Mirror’s power was usually green. But this small mirror in the secret chamber emitted an eerie black color.

Another chapter might be around 1:30 PM. No need to wait longer.
