第1452章 棺中二仙斗

In the void, the struggle within the World-Saving Blackwood Coffin did not subside; instead, it seemed to intensify. Money Rongchang appeared to be at a disadvantage despite the combined efforts of everyone. Just as despair began to settle in among the crowd, a sword light emerged from the darkness on the horizon, rapidly approaching.

This was Jing Changyu's graceful figure. Behind her, faintly visible through the dimness, was a shimmering white string, which seemed to carry the weight of the world despite its thinness. Despite this, Jing Changyu’s flight speed did not slow down at all, indicating her formidable strength.

As Jing Changyu grew closer and the connection with the network became imminent, something strange happened. Her flight speed suddenly slowed down significantly, and the crowd could see that Jing Changyu's three-layered eyes were constantly blinking.

"Jing Changyu must be reaching her limit; we need to go and assist her!" exclaimed the crowd in alarm.

Most of the new apprentice Immortals stayed behind, struggling to maintain the network. Qian Yuming led a team of three to meet Jing Changyu and the critical string that held their lives in balance.

Jing Changyu seemed to have exhausted all her strength; she slowed down further until she completely stopped, as if falling into a deep sleep!

Qian Yuming, seeing this, accelerated his approach with urgency. However, before he could reach Jing Changyu, the four Immortal Hunters who were sent to assist also gradually slowed down and eventually fell asleep just like Jing Changyu.

The remaining new apprentice Immortals paused in their command rhythm. Although they did not know what had happened, a sense of foreboding filled their hearts.

Before they could speak, an inexplicable force enveloped them, as if all the accumulated fatigue from birth to this moment was suddenly released. Many fell into a deep sleep instantly.

Even Qian Yuming, one of the outstanding ones like Nan Gong Hongzhao, succumbed to the overwhelming drowsiness and soon fell asleep, drifting into a dreamland.

The "Ma Tiande"附身 entity of Li Fan also fell asleep in the same manner.

Apart from the violently trembling World-Saving Blackwood Coffin, there was no movement in the entire starry sky. The new apprentice Immortals slept soundly while the struggle within the coffin did not seem to have a clear outcome.

Days turned into weeks; when thirty days had passed, the person inside the coffin seemed to sense possible changes outside or finally reached a conclusion.

The sounds of the struggle gradually subsided but no one emerged from the coffin. The World-Saving Blackwood Coffin remained floating in the void.

---

In the Yellow-White Realm, Li Fan observed the floating coffin through his dream power. He had carefully considered this intervention and was prepared to flee if discovered. Whether the target Immortal Hunter, "Wuxian," was actually He Ganxian or not, it held value for Li Fan's plans.

Having infiltrated the Shuixinghai region, he had a basic understanding of its various forces. However, regarding the opposing True Immortals, he remained in complete ignorance.

Apart from lacking Immortal Essence Qi within his body, Li Fan was essentially no different from an "Immortal." He could be considered part of the same camp.

Rescuing this Wuxian and learning something from him would undoubtedly benefit Li Fan's plans. However, instead of directly confronting it, he silently observed the changes inside the coffin, patient as a hunter waiting for prey to strike.

The silence within the coffin lasted seven days. Sensing no external changes, the person inside seemed restless.

Sacred chants resounded again, indicating an intention to escape regardless of what was happening outside.

But these chants did not last long; suddenly, another ethereal whisper echoed through the void, with a tone completely different from the chants. This caused subtle changes in the chants within the coffin.

The seven-color light also seemed disturbed and flickered continuously but could not coalesce into one.

Undeterred, the person inside tried again. The colored light surged after a brief pause, even increasing the volume of the chants by two times.

However, as the saying goes, "the higher the Tao, the greater the demon," the illusory sounds from the dreamland amplified by dozens of times, silencing the chants completely.

The seven-color light retreated into the coffin, leaving no further activity. After completing its disruption, the whispers vanished like they had come.

Once again, only a single World-Saving Blackwood Coffin and the sleeping new apprentice Immortals remained in this void.

Li Fan personally wove them a beautiful dream, taking precautions inspired by the local network. This dream was independent of the Yellow-White Realm's dreamland, allowing it to be discarded at any time if necessary. With the barrier blocking it, no trace would remain.

By gathering all the dream forces from outside this period and adding the demonic sounds from the Huaxia clan’s bloodline memory, he could disrupt the World-Saving Blackwood Coffin's travel.

Previously, Li Fan had used the Great Mage’s避祸玄音to neutralize the effects of the Xuanwang demon sound. When he heard the chants in the coffin sounded similar to the避祸玄音, this idea came to mind.

This practice proved successful.

"Seems like these two cosmic sounds are somewhat opposed," Li Fan thought.

The World-Saving Blackwood Coffin was trapped here, and the Shuixinghai Immortal Hunters did not ignore it. It was clear that the Immortal Hunter headquarters knew about Money Rongchang's plan to some extent and had sent people to search for the missing coffin and the Immortal Hunters at the network’s edge.

However, to deceive Wuxian, Money Rongchang did not reveal too much information. The Annihilation Grounds were still a source of danger and unknown to Shuixinghai.

With Li Fan having already severed the dream string, they would take some time before finding their way in.

"See how long you can hold out."

For capturing Wuxian, this coffin must have been tampered with; it could only be opened from the outside. Unless one's strength was strong enough to shatter the coffin, there was no way to escape from the sealed coffin.

This was Money Rongchang’s perfect hunting technique, but now it became Li Fan's leverage for daring to intervene.
