lǐ fán shén qíng yǒu xiē wēi miào , bù guò què yě méi yǒu chū shēng jù jué 。
李凡神情有些微妙,不过却也没有出声拒绝。
Li Fan's expression was somewhat subtle, but he didn't refuse outright.
“ wú zhī néng , yuǎn bù rú tài wēi dào yǒu 。 jiā zhī suǒ wǎng guī zé fù biàn , kǒng pà wèi bì néng jiān chí duō jiǔ 。”
“吾之能,远不如太微道友。加之锁网规则复变,恐怕未必能坚持多久。”
"Compared to Senior Daoist Taiwei, my abilities are far inferior. With the rules of the net changing again, I'm afraid it won't last long."
guī hǎi shèng zhě dào :“【 suǒ 】 jì yǐ bào lù , jiān chí bù liǎo duō jiǔ jiù bì dìng yào yuǎn dùn lí qù 。 wú děng xiàn zài yào zuò de , biàn shì jǐn kě néng tuō yán 。 què bǎo zài qí lí kāi zhī qián , shān hǎi shēng líng zhī dào de ān quán 。”
归海圣者道:“【索】既已暴露,坚持不了多久就必定要远遁离去。吾等现在要做的,便是尽可能拖延。确保在其离开之前,山海生灵之道的安全。”
The Saint of Return Sea said: "Since the search has been exposed, we must inevitably retreat far away. What we need to do now is delay as much as possible. Ensure that the safety of the path of life and spirit in the mountains and seas before he departs."
“ zhòu huí dào yǒu wú xū yōu xīn , jǐn guǎn qián qù biàn shì 。 jiù suàn shī bài , wú děng yě huì hěn kuài jiē shàng 。” shǒu qiū xiào hē hē de shuō dào 。
“宙廻道友无需忧心,尽管前去便是。就算失败,吾等也会很快接上。”守丘笑呵呵的说道。
"Do not worry, Senior Daoist Zhouhui," Taiyi Saint said with a smile. "Go ahead. Even if it fails, we will quickly follow up."
lǐ fán gǒng le gǒng shǒu , suí jí fēn chū yī dào yì niàn , shùn zhe gǎn yìng dào de shān hǎi mài luò ér qù 。
李凡拱了拱手,随即分出一道意念,顺着感应到的山海脉络而去。
Li Fan bowed his hand and then sent out an intent along the感应 to the core of the mountains and seas.
yī jìn rù qí jiān , biàn zhī wèi hé xiān qián qiè jī děng rén chuān suō shí , qiáng dù shòu sǔn nà bān yán zhòng le 。 shān hǎi mài luò , qiān shè shān hǎi cún xù jī shí , nǎi shì mì zhōng zhī mì 。 duì yú wài lái yī qiè shì wù dōu cún zài zhe běn néng de qiáng liè pái chì 。
一进入其间,便知为何先前窃机等人穿梭时,强度受损那般严重了。山海脉络,牵涉山海存续基石,乃是秘中之秘。对于外来一切事物都存在着本能的强烈排斥。
Upon entering this realm, he knew why the previous thieves had suffered such severe damage when they moved around. The veins of the mountains and seas were tied to the foundation of their existence, a secret within secrets. They instinctively strongly rejected any external things.
zhǐ néng yǐ duì 【 shān hǎi shēng líng 】 de nà lǚ shú xī wèi shéng , jǐn kě néng de bǎo liú yī bù fèn shí lì 。
只能以对【山海生灵】的那缕熟悉为绳,尽可能的保留一部分实力。
He could only rely on his familiarity with the [Life and Spirit of Mountains and Seas] as a rope to retain some strength.
lǐ fán suī kěn dìng bù rú tài wēi shèng dì nà bān , dé shèng cháo wàn mín zhī zhù 、 néng yǐ jī hū quán shèng shí lì wán chéng héng dù 。
李凡虽肯定不如太微圣帝那般,得圣朝万民之助、能以几乎全盛实力完成横渡。
Although Li Fan was sure he couldn't match Taiwei Saint's abilities, who had the support of all the people in the Holy Dynasty and could use almost full power to cross over,
dàn tóng xīn tóng dé jiā chí zhī xià , tā gēn shǒu qiū 、 dào dé sān rén gòng xiǎng gǎn wù 。
但同心同德加持之下,他跟守丘、道德三人共享感悟。
with the added benefits from their shared beliefs, he and Shouchou, along with Daoist De, were able to share insights.
biǎo xiàn què shì bǐ qiè jī děng rén yào hǎo shàng bù shǎo 。
表现却是比窃机等人要好上不少。
Their performance was much better than the thieves'.
yǐ jiē jìn wú míng zhēn xiān de shí lì , chéng gōng jiàng lín suǒ wǎng zhī zhōng 。
以接近无名真仙的实力,成功降临索网之中。
With near-nameless true immortals' strength, they successfully landed in the web of索.
yě gēn tài wēi shèng dì bān , běn zūn jiāng zì shēn suǒ jīng lì chǎng jǐng , tóu yǐng zhì xuán jī huán zhōng 。 yǐ gōng zhū shèng wéi guān 。
也跟太微圣帝般,本尊将自身所经历场景,投影至璇玑环中。以供诸圣围观。
Like Taiwei Saint, his own essence projected the scenes he experienced into the璇玑 ring for all the saints to watch.
“ zhòu huí dào yǒu wù xìng guǒ rán fēi fán 。 kāi jú hái suàn bú cuò , yīng néng tuō zhù suǒ yī duàn shí jiān le 。” tài yì shèng zhě wēi wēi diǎn tóu dào 。
“宙廻道友悟性果然非凡。开局还算不错,应能拖住索一段时间了。”太易圣者微微点头道。
"The insight of Senior Daoist Zhouhui is truly extraordinary. The start was not bad; it should be able to hold off the search for a while," said the Saint of Taiyi with a slight nod.
lǐ fán sān rén zé shì yú nèi xīn shēn chù wán chéng gōu tōng :“ ruò shì jiē xià lái , lún dào wǒ men dēng cháng 。 xū cáng zhuō yī fān , fǒu zé biǎo xiàn yī yàng , huò xǔ yǐn qǐ huái yí 。”
李凡三人则是于内心深处完成沟通:“若是接下来,轮到我们登场。需藏拙一番,否则表现一样,或许引起怀疑。”
Li Fan and his companions completed their communication in their hearts: "If we are next, we need to hide our true abilities. Otherwise, similar performances might raise suspicion."
qiě shuō lǐ fán chéng gōng lái dào suǒ biān zhī tài chū xiān jiè de shùn jiān , jiù gǎn dào le tiān dì jiān mì bù de nóng nóng shā yì 。
且说李凡成功来到索编织太初仙界的瞬间,就感到了天地间密布的浓浓杀意。
Speaking of which, as soon as Li Fan arrived at the moment when the web of索wove the Primordial Immortal World, he felt the thick killing intent permeating the heavens and earth.
xiǎng dāng nián , tā zài zhù jī shí jiù míng wù chū yī shì 【 wú xiāng shā jī 】、 jiǎ tiān mìng ér yòng 。 zì rán duì zhè tiān dì è yì shā jī shú xī wú bǐ 。
想当年,他在筑基时就明悟出一式【无相杀机】、假天命而用。自然对这天地恶意杀机熟悉无比。
Back in his Foundation Establishment days, he had already understood a technique called [Formless Killing Opportunity] and used it to manipulate fate. Thus, he was very familiar with this natural hostility from heaven and earth.
zhǐ shì méi tóu wēi cù , biàn yǐ jīng xí guàn le 。
只是眉头微蹙,便已经习惯了。
With a slight frown, he quickly adapted.
yǒu le tài wēi shèng dì qián chē zhī jiàn , lǐ fán yě xué zhe kāi jú zhí jiē sàn gōng , jiāng zì shēn xiū wèi jiàng dào fán rén shuǐ zhǔn 。
有了太微圣帝前车之鉴,李凡也学着开局直接散功,将自身修为降到凡人水准。
Learning from Taiwei Saint's example, Li Fan also dispelled his power at the start, reducing his cultivation to that of an ordinary person.
bù guò tài wēi shì jiāng zì shēn suǒ sàn xiū wèi 、 jié hé wú shù zài dì wáng jīng yàn , dǎ zào chū yī zhī bù xiǔ jūn tuán 。
不过太微是将自身所散修为、结合无数载帝王经验,打造出一支不朽军团。
However, unlike Taiwei who combined his dispersed power with countless imperial experiences to create an immortal army,
ér lǐ fán ……
而李凡……
Li Fan actively sent his own strength to those monsters appearing slowly around him!
què shì zhǔ dòng jiāng zì shēn xiū wèi sòng gěi le zhōu wéi xú xú chū xiàn 、 zhèng zài cháo zì jǐ sī shā guò lái de nà xiē guài wù !
却是主动将自身修为送给了周围徐徐出现、正在朝自己厮杀过来的那些怪物!
It was like he was aiding the enemy right from the beginning.
jìng shì yī dēng cháng jiù xíng zī dí zhī jǔ 。
竟是一登场就行资敌之举。
"Um? What is Senior Daoist Zhouhui doing?"
“ ń ? zhòu huí dào yǒu zhè shì zài zuò shén me ?”
“嗯?宙廻道友这是在做什么?”
"Why would he give away his cultivation to the enemies? With a mortal body, how can one survive this siege?"
“ jìng zhǔ dòng jiāng zì shēn xiū wèi sòng gěi dí rén 。 yǐ fán rén zhī qū , yòu rú hé néng dù guò jiē xià lái wéi gōng ?”
“竟主动将自身修为送给敌人。以凡人之躯,又如何能度过接下来围攻?”
This unusual behavior naturally caught the attention of all the saints.
rú cǐ yì cháng , zì shì yǐn qǐ le zhū shèng de guān zhù 。
如此异常,自是引起了诸圣的关注。
The next transformation among the monsters further revealed Li Fan's reason for doing so.
ér jiē xià lái xiōng wù qún zhōng fā shēng de yì biàn , zé shì zhāng xiǎn le lǐ fán rú cǐ zuò de yuán yīn 。
而接下来凶物群中发生的异变,则是彰显了李凡如此做的原因。
Originally, the monsters had a unified goal: to kill Li Fan. However, due to the strength Li Fan sent them, they began to divide.
yuán běn mù biāo yí zhì , shì shā lǐ fán de xiōng wù men 。
原本目标一致,誓杀李凡的凶物们。
Those who received Li Fan's gifts instantly replaced him as the primary target of the monster's attacks.
què yīn wèi lǐ fán zhǔ dòng sòng chū de nà xiē xiū wèi , ér chǎn shēng le fēn qí 。
却因为李凡主动送出的那些修为,而产生了分歧。
Even though these were manifestations from the web, when their lives were threatened, they wouldn't just sit and wait.
fán shì jiē lǐ fán kuì zèng zhě , shùn jiān qǔ dài le lǐ fán , chéng wéi le xiōng wù wéi shā de shǒu yào mù biāo 。
凡是接李凡馈赠者,瞬间取代了李凡,成为了凶物围杀的首要目标。
Thus, they started fighting each other.
suī shì suǒ wǎng yǎn huà , rán dāng zì shēn xìng mìng zāo shòu wēi xié shí , què yě bú huì jiù zhè me zuò yǐ dài bì 。
虽是索网衍化,然当自身性命遭受威胁时,却也不会就这么坐以待毙。
After Taiwei Saint interacted with the web, it changed its rules. The first wave of monsters' strength was determined by Li Fan's Foundation Establishment level at his moment of arrival.
yú shì hù xiāng sī shā qǐ lái 。
于是互相厮杀起来。
Even though Li Fan dispelled his power, the monsters that emerged around him still maintained their corresponding levels.
suǒ wǎng zāo yù tài wēi shèng dì hòu , jìn xíng le guī zé de gǎi biàn 。 dì yī bō xiōng wù de shí lì shì gēn jù lǐ fán jiàng lín shùn jiān shí de jìng jiè suǒ jué dìng de 。
索网遭遇太微圣帝后,进行了规则的改变。第一波凶物的实力是根据李凡降临瞬间时的境界所决定的。
It wasn't until he sent out these powers without any enhancement that the second wave of monsters began to weaken.
jí biàn lǐ fán zhǔ dòng sàn qù xiū wèi , zhōu zāo suǒ yǎn huà guài wù què yě wéi chí zài xiāng yìng céng jí 。
即便李凡主动散去修为,周遭所衍化怪物却也维持在相应层级。
However, this presented a fatal problem.
zhí dào lǐ fán jiāng zhè xiē xiū wèi sòng chū , ér bìng fēi shì yǐ rèn yì fāng shì qiáng huà zì jǐ 。 dì èr bō chū xiàn de xiōng wù shí lì , cái kāi shǐ tóng bù jiàng dī 。
直到李凡将这些修为送出,而并非是以任意方式强化自己。第二波出现的凶物实力,才开始同步降低。
The first wave of attacking monsters who received Li Fan's gifts and turned against the web were still at the level of nameless true immortals.
bù guò rú cǐ yī lái , yí gè zhì mìng de wèn tí biàn chū xiàn le 。
不过如此一来,一个致命的问题便出现了。
Facing their "own kind," they hesitated for only a moment before resuming their killing.
dì yī bō xí jī xiōng wù zhōng , jiē shòu lǐ fán kuì zèng 、 gēn suǒ wǎng fǎn mù dì nà xiē cún zài , yī rán hái wéi chí zhe wú míng zhēn xiān de shí lì 。
第一波袭击凶物中,接受李凡馈赠、跟索网反目的那些存在,依然还维持着无名真仙的实力。
Their combat strength was vastly different; they were quickly annihilated.
miàn duì zhè xiē xīn chū xiàn de 、 zì shēn “ tóng lèi ” men , tā men zhǐ shì shāo wēi yóu yù le piàn kè , jiù hěn kuài zài dù jǔ qǐ le tú dāo 。
面对这些新出现的、自身“同类”们,祂们只是稍微犹豫了片刻,就很快再度举起了屠刀。
In the sky of the web, it seemed to have paused momentarily.
wán quán bú shì tóng yī gè shuǐ píng de zhàn lì , hěn kuài jiù bèi tú lù dài jìn 。
完全不是同一个水平的战力,很快就被屠戮殆尽。
As if some rules had been rewritten in this instant.
suǒ wǎng tiān kōng zhōng , fǎng fú zài zhè yī kè yòu xiàn rù le shùn xī de tíng zhì 。
索网天空中,仿佛在这一刻又陷入了瞬息的停滞。
With the rules changing again, there was a rare moment of silence.
fǎng fú yòu yǒu guī zé , zài zhè shùn jiān bèi pò gǎi xiě 。
仿佛又有规则,在这瞬间被迫改写。
Li Fan actively approached these monsters around him who were now within his and the web's realm.
guī zé fù biàn , nán dé de ān jìng shí kè 。
规则复变,难得的安静时刻。
Though they were forced into receiving Li Fan's gifts, they would never be accepted by the web.
lǐ fán què shì zhǔ dòng lái dào le zhè xiē chù zài tā gēn suǒ wǎng zhī zhōng de xiōng wù shēn biān 。
李凡却是主动来到了这些处在他跟索网之中的凶物身边。
They showed great caution towards their "benefactor," Li Fan.
jiē shòu le lǐ fán zhè wài lái zhě de kuì zèng , suī rán yě zhǐ shì bèi pò 、 dàn tā men yě zhù dìng bú huì bèi suǒ wǎng suǒ róng nà 。
接受了李凡这外来者的馈赠,虽然也只是被迫、但它们也注定不会被索网所容纳。
Perhaps because of the gifts, they didn't immediately attack.
duì yú lǐ fán zhè wèi “ ēn rén ” de dào lái , tā men xiǎn de pǒ wèi jǐng tì 。
对于李凡这位“恩人”的到来,它们显得颇为警惕。
"Since our lives are now intertwined, we must face this calamity together."
bù guò huò xǔ shì yīn wèi dé qí kuì zèng de yuán gù , yě méi yǒu zhí jiē dòng shǒu 。
不过或许是因为得其馈赠的缘故,也没有直接动手。
"You may have been created from this world, but with my blessings, you have a chance to break free from your shackles. You are no longer like those mindless killers..."
“ wú děng rú jīn xìng mìng kě wèi yī tǐ , xū gòng tóng dù guò cǐ fān jié nàn 。”
“吾等如今性命可为一体,需共同度过此番劫难。”
Li Fan calmly explained the entire situation to these once-ignorant monsters.
“ ěr suī cǐ fāng tiān dì suǒ chuàng , rán dé wǒ zào huà , biàn yǒu le tiào chū zhì gù de qì jī 。 gēn guò qù nà xiē zhǐ zhī shā lù de xiōng wù , yǐ bù zài shì tóng lèi ……”
“尔虽此方天地所创,然得我造化,便有了跳出桎梏的契机。跟过去那些只知杀戮的凶物,已不再是同类……”
It was as if he were imparting teachings. The faces of many monsters changed in an instant—some found it hard to accept, some seemed thoughtful, and others were convinced, seeing Li Fan as their benefactor.
lǐ fán méi yǒu zài yì duì miàn céng shì wú zhī wú shí de xiōng wù , shén qíng dàn rán 、 wèi tā men chǎn shù le yī qiè de qián yīn hòu guǒ qǐ lái 。
李凡没有在意对面曾是无知无识的凶物,神情淡然、为它们阐述了一切的前因后果起来。
"May I ask Master, what is our path now?"
wǎn ruò diǎn huà jiǎng dào , zhū duō xiōng wù liǎn shàng shén qíng zài duǎn shí jiān nèi yī lián shù biàn 。
宛若点化讲道,诸多凶物脸上神情在短时间内一连数变。
Li Fan looked up at the sky and pointed with a smile: "Join me in shaping this heaven!"
yǒu nán yǐ jiē shòu zhě , yǒu ruò yǒu suǒ sī zhě 。
有难以接受者,有若有所思者。
The monsters still couldn't understand Li Fan's words. The third wave of monsters had already appeared.
yì yǒu xīn yuè chéng fú , shì lǐ fán wèi ēn shī zhě 。
亦有心悦诚服,视李凡为恩师者。
With the rules changing again, they treated those who rebelled as part of Li Fan's strength.
“ gǎn wèn shī zhǎng , rú jīn wú děng qián lù hé zài ?”
“敢问师长,如今吾等前路何在?”
Thus, the new monsters returned to the level of nameless true immortals.
lǐ fán tái tóu wàng tiān , xiào zhǐ shuō dào :“ yǔ wǒ gòng móu cǐ tiān !”
李凡抬头望天,笑指说道:“与我共谋此天!”
"We can see that we are now one, our fates intertwined."
yī zhòng xiōng wù shàng qiě bù néng míng bái lǐ fán huà lǐ de yì si , dì sān bō de xiōng wù yǐ jīng dàn shēng le 。
一众凶物尚且不能明白李凡话里的意思,第三波的凶物已经诞生了。
"Follow my commands; it is your only chance for survival."
guī zé yòu biàn zhī hòu , yǐ rán jiāng nà xiē pàn biàn de shēng líng , dàng zuò le lǐ fán shí lì de yī bù fèn 。
规则又变之后,已然将那些叛变的生灵,当做了李凡实力的一部分。
"If I disappear, you will also be punished."
gù ér xīn dàn shēng xiōng wù de shí lì , yòu huí dào le wú míng zhēn xiān zhī jìng 。
故而新诞生凶物的实力,又回到了无名真仙之境。
The enlightened beings were not foolish. From the situation in the web, they quickly understood Li Fan's words to be true.
“ ěr děng yě kàn dào le , rú jīn wǒ men yǐ jīng shì yī tǐ , yī róng jù róng 、 yī sǔn jù sǔn 。”
“尔等也看到了,如今我们已经是一体,一荣俱荣、一损俱损。”
Though their hearts felt a heavy depression, they had to unite against their enemies for now.
“ tīng wú hào lìng , nǎi shì nǐ men wéi yī shēng jī suǒ zài 。”
“听吾号令,乃是你们唯一生机所在。”
They vented all their anger on the enemy.
“ ruò wǒ xiāo shī , nǐ men yě bì jiāng huì bèi qīng suàn 。”
“若我消失,你们也必将会被清算。”
However, the web considered the morale and mental state of its enemies as well.
diǎn huà shēng líng bìng bù yú dùn , cóng suǒ wǎng zhōng rú jīn xíng shì , hěn kuài biàn míng bái le lǐ fán suǒ shuō shǔ shí 。
点化生灵并不愚钝,从索网中如今形势,很快便明白了李凡所说属实。
This battle was still extremely difficult.
jí biàn xīn zhōng bù zhī wèi hé yǒu gǔ yù yù zhī qì , què yě zàn qiě zhǐ néng tóng chóu dí kài 。
即便心中不知为何有股郁郁之气,却也暂且只能同仇敌忾。
The newly joined enlightened beings lost more than half in just this round.
jiāng mǎn qiāng nù qì , quán dōu fā xiè zài le dí rén shēn shàng 。
将满腔怒气,全都发泄在了敌人身上。
Fortunately for Li Fan, from the perspective of the web, eliminating these traitors was even more important than killing him.
dàn suǒ wǎng yǎn huà dí rén què yě kǎo lǜ dào le suǒ wèi shì qì 、 xīn xìng de jiā chéng 。
但索网衍化敌人却也考虑到了所谓士气、心性的加成。
So long as the enlightened beings didn't die out completely, he remained safe.
zhè yī zhàn , yī rán dǎ dī nán jiě nán fēn 。
这一战,依然打的难解难分。
After a bloody battle, he barely moved an inch.
gāng gāng guī fù de diǎn huà shēng líng , zhí jiē sǔn shī le chāo guò yí bàn 。
刚刚归附的点化生灵,直接损失了超过一半。
He only occasionally looked up at the sky as if observing something.
wéi yī duì lǐ fán yǒu lì de shì , duì yú suǒ wǎng ér yán 、 xiāo miè zhè xiē pàn tú de zhòng yào xìng hái zài zhū shā tā zhī shàng 。
唯一对李凡有利的是,对于索网而言、消灭这些叛徒的重要性还在诛杀他之上。
Li Fan's eyes narrowed and he coldly thought: "In this short time, there have been several changes."
suǒ yǐ zài diǎn huà shēng líng méi yǒu sǐ jué zhī qián , tā dǎo fǎn ér shì ān quán de 。
所以在点化生灵没有死绝之前,他倒反而是安全的。
"Any change must leave traces. Even the primordial life of the mountains and seas cannot escape this rule."
yī cháng xuè zhàn xià lái , tā lián jīn gǔ dōu méi yǒu huó dòng yī xià 。
一场血战下来,他连筋骨都没有活动一下。
Li Fan pushed his thoughts to their limits in his mind.
zhǐ shì shí bù shí tái tóu wàng tiān , sì hū shì zài guān chá zhe shén me 。
只是时不时抬头望天,似乎是在观察着什么。
The scene before him, the Primordial Immortal World, seemed like a curtain that suddenly receded.
lǐ fán yǎn jīng wēi mī , xīn zhōng lěng hēng :“ duǎn shí jiān nèi , jǐ dù biàn yì 。”
李凡眼睛微眯,心中冷哼:“短时间内,几度变易。”
Revealing the core—a vast web interwoven horizontally and vertically.
“ fán biàn zhě , bì yǒu jì kě xún 。 zòng shǐ shān hǎi zhī chū shēng líng , yě nán táo cǐ lǐ 。”
“凡变者,必有迹可循。纵使山海之初生灵,也难逃此理。”
"This net, though you wove it, how can I not use it?"
lǐ fán zài xīn zhōng jí dù tuī yǎn zhe 。
李凡在心中极度推衍着。
Li Fan slowly extended two fingers towards the sky.
Li Fan's expression was somewhat subtle, but he didn't refuse outright.
"Compared to Senior Daoist Taiwei, my abilities are far inferior. With the rules of the net changing again, I'm afraid it won't last long."
The Saint of Return Sea said: "Since the search has been exposed, we must inevitably retreat far away. What we need to do now is delay as much as possible. Ensure that the safety of the path of life and spirit in the mountains and seas before he departs."
"Do not worry, Senior Daoist Zhouhui," Taiyi Saint said with a smile. "Go ahead. Even if it fails, we will quickly follow up."
Li Fan bowed his hand and then sent out an intent along the感应 to the core of the mountains and seas.
Upon entering this realm, he knew why the previous thieves had suffered such severe damage when they moved around. The veins of the mountains and seas were tied to the foundation of their existence, a secret within secrets. They instinctively strongly rejected any external things.
He could only rely on his familiarity with the [Life and Spirit of Mountains and Seas] as a rope to retain some strength.
Although Li Fan was sure he couldn't match Taiwei Saint's abilities, who had the support of all the people in the Holy Dynasty and could use almost full power to cross over,
with the added benefits from their shared beliefs, he and Shouchou, along with Daoist De, were able to share insights.

Though they were forced into receiving Li Fan's gifts, they would never be accepted by the web.
They showed great caution towards their "benefactor," Li Fan.
Perhaps because of the gifts, they didn't immediately attack.
"Since our lives are now intertwined, we must face this calamity together."
"You may have been created from this world, but with my blessings, you have a chance to break free from your shackles. You are no longer like those mindless killers..."
Li Fan calmly explained the entire situation to these once-ignorant monsters.
It was as if he were imparting teachings. The faces of many monsters changed in an instant—some found it hard to accept, some seemed thoughtful, and others were convinced, seeing Li Fan as their benefactor.
"May I ask Master, what is our path now?"
Li Fan looked up at the sky and pointed with a smile: "Join me in shaping this heaven!"
The monsters still couldn't understand Li Fan's words. The third wave of monsters had already appeared.
With the rules changing again, they treated those who rebelled as part of Li Fan's strength.
Thus, the new monsters returned to the level of nameless true immortals.
"We can see that we are now one, our fates intertwined."
"Follow my commands; it is your only chance for survival."
"If I disappear, you will also be punished."
The enlightened beings were not foolish. From the situation in the web, they quickly understood Li Fan's words to be true.
Though their hearts felt a heavy depression, they had to unite against their enemies for now.
They vented all their anger on the enemy.
However, the web considered the morale and mental state of its enemies as well.
This battle was still extremely difficult.
The newly joined enlightened beings lost more than half in just this round.
Fortunately for Li Fan, from the perspective of the web, eliminating these traitors was even more important than killing him.
So long as the enlightened beings didn't die out completely, he remained safe.
After a bloody battle, he barely moved an inch.
He only occasionally looked up at the sky as if observing something.
Li Fan's eyes narrowed and he coldly thought: "In this short time, there have been several changes."
"Any change must leave traces. Even the primordial life of the mountains and seas cannot escape this rule."
Li Fan pushed his thoughts to their limits in his mind.
The scene before him, the Primordial Immortal World, seemed like a curtain that suddenly receded.
Revealing the core—a vast web interwoven horizontally and vertically.
"This net, though you wove it, how can I not use it?"
Li Fan slowly extended two fingers towards the sky.
