sān tiān hòu 。
三天后。
Three days later.
rì luò shí fēn 。
日落时分。
By the time the sun was setting, Li Fan sat cross-legged at the bottom of the sea,闭着眼睛修炼.
lǐ fán pán xī zuò yú hǎi dǐ ， bì mù xiū xíng 。
李凡盘膝坐于海底，闭目修行。
Suddenly sensing a yellow light emanating from the broken stone, Li Fan opened his eyes and asked, "Head? How's it going? Is the test real?"
hū de gǎn yìng dào duàn shí shàng huáng sè guāng máng liàng qǐ ， lǐ fán mù rán kāi shuāng yǎn 。
忽的感应到断石上黄色光芒亮起，李凡墓然开双眼。
"Haha, you've really made a big contribution this time!" The voice was filled with uncontainable excitement.
qǐ shēn wèn dào ：“ tóu ? zěn me yàng ? shì tí zhēn bù zhēn ?“
起身问道：“头?怎么样?试题真不真?“
"The test is real! The division isn't far off!"
“ hā hā ， nǐ xiǎo zi zhè cì kě lì xià dà gōng le !“ rén liǎn de shēng yīn zhōng nán yǐ yì zhì de jī dòng 。
“哈哈，你小子这次可立下大功了!“人脸的声音中难以抑制的激动。
"I've heard that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance appears to be prosperous on the surface but is deeply corrupt internally. But it turns out it's even more exaggerated than what I heard!"
“ shì tí shì zhēn de ! fēn shì bù chà !“
“试题是真的!分室不差!“
"Such a major matter as the organizational entrance exam, which decides its future and destiny, has actually been used for personal gain!"
“ zǎo jiù tīng shuō wàn xiān méng wài biǎo guāng xiān liàng lì ， shí zé nèi bù zǎo yǐ fǔ bài bù kān 。 méi xiǎng dào bǐ chuán wén zhōng de hái yào kuā zhāng !“
“早就听说万仙盟外表光鲜亮丽，实则内部早已腐败不堪。没想到比传闻中的还要夸张!“
"This is just the Heng Family in Tianyu Prefecture! What about those with greater power? It's beyond my imagination to think of how corrupt they are!"
“ rù zhí dà kǎo zhè děng shì guān zǔ zhī qián tú mìng yùn de dà shì ， jū rán dū huì bèi sī rén yòng lái móu lì !“
“入职大考这等事关组织前途命运的大事，居然都会被私人用来牟利!“
The person's understanding seemed greatly impacted. He kept shaking his head, clearly unable to believe what he was hearing.
“ zhè hái zhǐ shì tiān yǔ zhōu héng jiā yī jiā !“
“这还只是天禹州衡家一家!“
Li Fan interjected, "Isn't this better for us? The sooner the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance dies out, the sooner we can unify the Xuanhuang Realm under our Five Elders' Association."
“ nà xiē gèng yǒu quán shì de yòu huì rú hé ， zhēn shì xiǎng dōu bù gǎn xiǎng !“
“那些更有权势的又会如何，真是想都不敢想!“
The person nodded in agreement. "That's right! Victory will ultimately belong to our Five Elders' Association!"
rén liǎn de rèn zhī sì hū shòu dào le jí dà chōng jī ， lián lián zé shé ， mǎn shì bù gǎn zhì xìn 。
人脸的认知似乎受到了极大冲击，连连咋舌，满是不敢置信。
He paused, and his excited mood gradually calmed down.
lǐ fán cǐ shí jiē huà dào ：“ zhè duì wǒ men lái shuō bú shì gèng hǎo ma ? wàn xiān méng sǐ de yuè kuài ， wǒ men wǔ lǎo huì jiù yuè zǎo yī rì ， néng gòu yī tǒng xuán huáng jiè 。
李凡此时接话道：“这对我们来说不是更好嘛?万仙盟死的越快，我们五老会就越早一日，能够一统玄黄界。
His expression turned serious as he instructed, "We mustn't delay. Go immediately to contact He Zhenghao and get the remaining test questions as soon as possible."
rén liǎn hé diǎn diǎn tóu ：“ bù cuò ! shèng lì zhōng jiāng shǔ yú wǒ men wǔ lǎo huì !“
人脸和点点头：“不错!胜利终将属于我们五老会!“
"The meeting place is set within the [Ten Thousand Hidden Treasures Pavilion]."
tā dùn le dùn ， zhèn fèn de xīn qíng yě zhú jiàn shū huǎn xià lái 。
他顿了顿，振奋的心情也逐渐舒缓下来。
"I will send someone to go there. You handle the reception,"
shén sè níng zhòng ， zhǔ shí dào ：“ shì bù yí chí ， mǎ shàng qù lián xì hé zhèng hào ， jǐn kuài jiāng shèng yú de shì tí nòng dào shǒu “ jiāo yì dì diǎn ， jiù yuē dìng zài 【 wàn cáng gé 】 nèi 。“
神色凝重，嘱时道：“事不宜迟，马上去联系何正浩，尽快将剩余的试题弄到手“交易地点，就约定在【万藏阁】内。“
"By the way, make sure he doesn't leave until we confirm that all the test questions are correct after the exam ends and we receive notification."
“ wǒ huì pài rén qián qù ， nǐ fù zé jiē yīng 。“
“我会派人前去，你负责接应。“
The person carefully instructed Li Fan on numerous precautions before explaining the meeting method and then vanished.
“ duì le ， wèi le fáng zhǐ shèng xià de shì tí bú duì ， wù bì yào děng dào dà kǎo jié shù 、 shōu dào tōng zhī hòu ， zài fàng tā lí qù 。
“对了，为了防止剩下的试题不对，务必要等到大考结束、收到通知后，再放他离去。
After destroying the scene as usual, Li Fan returned to Tang'an Island.
rén liǎn zǐ xì dīng zhǔ le lǐ fán zhū duō zhù yì shì xiàng ， suí hòu yòu jiāo dài le jiē tóu fāng shì zhī hòu ， fāng cái xiāo shī 。
人脸仔细叮嘱了李凡诸多注意事项，随后又交代了接头方式之后，方才消失。
In the depths of the protective array, Li Fan and his clone sat face-to-face.
lǐ fán zhào lì shì jiāng xiàn chǎng hén jì pò huài hòu ， fǎn huí le tài ān dǎo 。
李凡照例是将现场痕迹破坏后，返回了泰安岛。
"Ten Thousand Hidden Treasures Pavilion..."
fáng hù dà zhèn shēn chù ， lǐ fán hé fēn shēn miàn duì miàn ér zuò 。
防护大阵深处，李凡和分身面对面而坐。
This place was familiar to Li Fan; it was where the 12th generation He Zhenghao stored his legacy, 'A Detailed Explanation of the Hundred Vessel Array Diagram,' in Cunyun Island from the Cloud Sea.
“ wàn cáng gé …“
“万藏阁…“
And Zhou Qingang had also obtained the person's spirit stones through this place in a past life.
zhè ge dì fāng ， lǐ fán yě céng qù guò 。
这个地方，李凡也曾去过。
"Perhaps this is a hidden base for our Five Elders' Association," Li Fan pondered and immediately used the [One Hand Covers Heaven] secret technique, wearing the [Hidden Qi Token], to conceal his clone’s cultivation level as he waited for the Five Elders' Association's people to arrive.
zhèng shì dì shí èr shì ， hé zhèng hào hèng sǐ zhī qián ， jiāng yí chǎn 《 bǎi mài zhèn tú xiáng jiě 》 cún fàng de dì fāng 。
正是第十二世，何正浩横死之前，将遗产《百脉阵图详解》存放的地方。
The main body randomly transformed into another appearance and traveled through a teleportation array first, heading towards Cunyun Island.
wèi yú cóng yún hǎi de yōu lán dǎo 。
位于从云海的幽兰岛。
After some time, when Li Fan had quietly hidden in the sea outside Cunyun Island,
ér qián shì zhōu qīng áng huò qǔ rén liǎn de líng shí bǔ jǐ ， yě hái shì tōng guò zhè ge dì fāng 。
而前世周青昂获取人脸的灵石补给，也还是通过这个地方。
a cultivator suddenly appeared at the teleportation array on Tang'an Island. He was unable to discern his appearance; after arriving, he circled around the island and then shook his head with a sigh before slowly flying away.
“ kàn lái cǐ chù ， shuō bù dìng shì wǔ lǎo huì àn cáng de jù diǎn 。“
“看来此处，说不定是五老会暗藏的据点。“
Seeing this, Li Fan's clone followed silently.
lǐ fán chén yín piàn kè ， dāng jí shī zhǎn 【 zhǐ shǒu zhē tiān 】 mì shù ， pèi dài 【 yǐn qì fú 】, jiāng fēn shēn de xiū wèi zhē yǎn ， děng dài zhe wǔ lǎo huì de rén jiàng lín 。
李凡沉吟片刻，当即施展【只手遮天】秘术，佩戴【隐气符】,将分身的修为遮掩，等待着五老会的人降临。
The person flew rather slowly, as if waiting deliberately.
běn zūn zé shì suí jī biàn huàn chéng lìng wài yī fù yàng mào ， tōng guò chuán sòng zhèn ， shuài xiān yī bù qián wǎng le yōu lán dǎo 。
本尊则是随机变幻成另外一副样貌，通过传送阵，率先一步前往了幽兰岛。
After some distance from Tang'an Island, they arrived at an empty sea area. He suddenly stopped and said telepathically, "Friend, why are you following me secretly?"
guò le xiǎo bàn tiān ， dāng běn zūn yǐ jīng qiāo qiāo zài yōu lán dǎo wài de hǎi yù zhōng qián fú xià lái zhī hòu 。
过了小半天，当本尊已经悄悄在幽兰岛外的海域中潜伏下来之后。
Following the instructions of the broken stone face, Li Fan did not respond but instead shot out a palm containing yellow earth attribute power.
tài ān dǎo de chuán sòng zhèn zhōng ， què shì tū rán chū xiàn le yī wèi xiū shì 。
泰安岛的传送阵中，却是突然出现了一位修士。
The person was caught off guard by this sudden attack; he stood there motionless without any resistance.
cǐ rén kàn bù qīng yàng mào ， lái dào tài ān dǎo zhī hòu ， xiān shì zài dǎo shàng kōng le yī quān ， suí hòu zuò chū yáo tóu tàn qì de yàng zi 。
此人看不清样貌，来到泰安岛之后，先是在岛上空了一圈，随后做出摇头叹气的样子。
Just as Li Fan's palm was about to strike him, the earth attribute suddenly turned into wood. The other party did not dodge and endured the blow from Li Fan, remaining unmoved.
jìng lì shàng kōng bàn xiǎng ， zhè cái xú xú fēi zǒu 。
静立上空半响，这才徐徐飞走。
"Let’s go, head to Cunyun Island."
lǐ fán fēn shēn jiàn zhuàng ， qiǎo rán gēn shàng 。
李凡分身见状，悄然跟上。
After verifying Li Fan's identity, he said in a strange voice without any further ado, "Do we use the teleportation array?"
nà rén fēi xíng de sù dù yě bù kuài ， jiù zhè me màn yōu yōu de ， sì hū zài gù yì děng dài 。
那人飞行的速度也不快，就这么慢悠悠的，似乎在故意等待。
Li Fan asked, "Or fly over?"
fēi lí le tài ān dǎo yī duàn jù lí ， lái dào yī chù kōng kuàng de wú rén hǎi yù 。
飞离了泰安岛一段距离，来到一处空旷的无人海域。
He then grabbed Li Fan and walked forward.
tā tū rán tíng zhù ， chuán yīn dào ：“ zhè wèi dào yǒu ， wèi hé àn zhōng gēn zhe wǒ ?“
他突然停住，传音道：“这位道友，为何暗中跟着我?“
The scenery around them rapidly changed; even compared to the Dushen Boat that Xiao Heng had used in his past life, it was only slightly slower.
lǐ fán fēn shēn àn zhào duàn shí rén liǎn de jiāo dài ， méi yǒu dá huà 。
李凡分身按照断石人脸的交代，没有答话。
"Such speed, a Spirit Transformation Realm?"
ér shì zhí jiē bāo hán zhe huáng sè tǔ shǔ xìng lì liàng de yī zhǎng pāi chū 。
而是直接包含着黄色土属性力量的一掌拍出。
"Or possibly an Immortal Core cultivator who specializes in speed..."
nà rén sì hū méi yǒu liào dào lǐ fán huì yī yán bù hé tū rán xí jī ， méi yǒu sī háo fǎn kàng ， léng zài dāng chǎng 。
那人似乎没有料到李凡会一言不合突然袭击，没有丝毫反抗，楞在当场。
Li Fan remained silent, not bothering to observe the person beside him.
lǐ fán zhè yī zhǎng kuài yào jī dǎ dào tā shēn shàng de shí hòu ， tǔ shǔ xìng zhòu rán biàn chéng le mù shǔ xìng 。
李凡这一掌快要击打到他身上的时候，土属性骤然变成了木属性。
They traveled in silence until they arrived at Cunyun Island. After scanning around, he did not see He Zhenghao's figure.
duì fāng bù shǎn bù bì ， yìng shēng shēng chī xià le jì fán zhè zhǎng ， méi rán bù dòng 。
对方不闪不避，硬生生吃下了季凡这掌，眉然不动。
"Have you spoken with He Zhenghao?"
“ zǒu ba ， qù yōu lán dǎo 。“
“走吧，去幽兰岛。“
He asked again for confirmation.
yàn zhèng le lǐ fán de shēn fèn zhī hòu ， yě bù zuò zhāo hū ， tā zhí jiē yòng guài yì de shēng yīn shuō dào 。
验证了李凡的身份之后，也不做招呼，他直接用怪异的声音说道。
Li Fan nodded and said, "Or should I ask where he is?"
“ yòng chuán sòng zhèn hái shì ?“ lǐ fán wèn dào 。
“用传送阵还是?“李凡问道。
The person stopped him: "Wait a bit. It’s better to avoid using the communication spirit token."
“ fēi guò qù 。“
“飞过去。“
Seemingly hinting at something, Li Fan agreed.
shuō bà ， tā jìn shēn zhuā zhù lǐ fán ， suí hòu mài bù qián xíng 。
说罢，他近身抓住李凡，随后迈步前行。
Meanwhile, the main body flew towards their location without any concealment.
shēn páng de jǐng sè kuài sù biàn huàn ， nǎ pà bǐ qǐ shàng yī shì jì fán chéng zuò guò de dù chén zhōu ， yě jǐn jǐn shì màn le shǎo xǔ 。
身旁的景色快速变幻，哪怕比起上一世季凡乘坐过的渡尘舟，也仅仅是慢了少许。
Soon, the Five Elders' Association's receptionist sensed the approach of the main body and frowned, increasing his vigilance.
“ zhè zhǒng sù dù ， huà shén jìng jiè ?“
“这种速度，化神境界?“
Li Fan approached them: "Zhou Qingang, right?"
“ yě kě néng zhuān gōng sù dù yī dào de yuán yīng xiū shì ……“
“也可能专攻速度一道的元婴修士……“
"He Zhenghao sent me,"
jì fán xīn zhōng bù dòng shēng sè ， yě méi yǒu qù dǎ liàng shēn páng zhè wèi xiū shì ，
季凡心中不动声色，也没有去打量身旁这位修士，
This statement caused both the Five Elders' Association cultivator and Li Fan’s clone to change color.
yī lù wú huà 。
一路无话。
He first looked at “Zhou Qingang,” then his face turned dark as he coldly asked, "What do you mean by that?"
bù duō shí ， nà rén jiù dài zhe jì fán lái dào le yōu lán dǎo ，
不多时，那人就带着季凡来到了幽兰岛，
Li Fan acted nonchalant. "What do I mean? Of course, it's for trading."
sǎo shì le yī quān ， méi yǒu fā xiàn hé zhèng hào de shēn yǐng 。
扫视了一圈，没有发现何正浩的身影。
"Why isn't He Zhenghao coming himself?" the Five Elders' Association cultivator hesitated before asking.
“ gēn hé zhèng hào shuō guò le ?“
“跟何正浩说过了?“
Li Fan laughed and said, "How could he personally handle such a dangerous matter? If this were to come out, wouldn’t he be implicated?"
zhè shí ， tā yòu què rèn shì de wèn dào 。
这时，他又确认似的问道。
"It seems you don't know him well,"
lǐ fán diǎn diǎn tóu ：“ yào bù ， wǒ zài wèn wèn tā dào nǎ le ?“
李凡点点头：“要不，我再问问他到哪了?“
He looked at “Zhou Qingang” again and continued, "If you're caught, it won't involve him. With 5 million contribution points, how could he trust you that much?"
nà rén zhì zhǐ le lǐ fán ：“ děng děng ba 。 tōng xùn líng fú hái shì bù yòng de hǎo 。“
那人制止了李凡：“等等吧。通讯灵符还是不用的好。“
Li Fan grew impatient: "Don’t worry about it. Do we trade or not?"
sì hū yì yǒu suǒ zhǐ ， lǐ fán diǎn tóu dā yìng 。
似乎意有所指，李凡点头答应。
"If not, I'll leave. Coming here with such a small胆!"
tóng shí běn zūn yě háo bù zhē yǎn de ， cháo zhe èr rén suǒ zài de wèi zhì fēi lái 。
同时本尊也毫不遮掩的，朝着二人所在的位置飞来。
Li Fan looked disapprovingly at the two.
hěn kuài ， wǔ lǎo huì nà míng jiē yīng xiū shì jiù chá jué dào le běn zūn de jiē jìn 。
很快，五老会那名接应修士就察觉到了本尊的接近。
"Besides, who you trade with doesn't matter; all that matters is if the test questions are real."
tā méi tóu wēi zhòu ， tí gāo le jǐng jiè 。
他眉头微皱，提高了警戒。
His voice was like thunder, leaving no room for concealment.
lǐ fán dà dà de lái dào èr rén miàn qián ：“ zhōu qīng áng shì ba ?“
李凡大大的来到二人面前：“周青昂是吧?“
The Five Elders' Association cultivator changed color slightly and subconsciously scanned his surroundings. After some thought, he realized Li Fan's words had merit.
“ hé zhèng hào ràng wǒ lái de 。“
“何正浩让我来的。“
He glared at “Zhou Qingang” and said in a low voice: "Alright, be quiet."
cǐ yán yī chū ， wǔ lǎo huì xiū shì hé lǐ fán fēn shēn ， jǐn jiē sè biàn 。
此言一出，五老会修士和李凡分身，尽皆色变。
"Follow me,"
tā xiān shì kàn le yī yǎn “ zhōu qīng áng “, suí hòu liǎn sè yīn chén xià lái ， lěng shēng wèn dào ：“ dào yǒu shén me yì si ?
他先是看了一眼“周青昂“,随后脸色阴沉下来，冷声问道：“道友什么意思?
Then, he led them into the Ten Thousand Hidden Treasures Pavilion.
lǐ fán zé shì yī fù mǎn bù zài hū de yàng zi ， shuō dào ：“ shén me shén me yì si 。 dāng rán shì lái jiāo yì de 。“
李凡则是一副满不在乎的样子，说道：“什么什么意思。当然是来交易的。“
The staff inside the pavilion seemed to ignore their presence as they walked all the way to the deepest secret room without any hindrance.
“ zěn me bú shì hé zhèng hào tā qīn zì lái ?“ wǔ lǎo huì xiū shì yóu yù le piàn kè ， hái shì chū shēng wèn dào 。
“怎么不是何正浩他亲自来?“五老会修士犹豫了片刻，还是出声问道。
Closing the secret room, the Five Elders' Association cultivator said in a cold voice: "Where are the test questions?"
lǐ fán xiào yī shēng ：“ zhè me wēi xiǎn de shì ， tā zěn me kě néng qīn zì chū mǎ 。 ruò shì dōng chuāng shì fā ， tā qǐ bù
李凡笑一声：“这么危险的事，他怎么可能亲自出马。若是东窗事发，他岂不
Li Fan countered, "And where's the 5 million?"
shì yào shòu qiān lián ?“
是要受牵连?“
"Money first..."
“ kàn lái nǐ men hái shì bù tài liǎo jiě cǐ rén a 。“
“看来你们还是不太了解此人啊。“
"Questions afterward."
wǔ lǎo huì xiū shì yòu kàn le yǎn “ zhōu qīng áng “。
五老会修士又看了眼“周青昂“。
The two said simultaneously and looked at each other for a moment before exchanging their storage rings.
jì xù wèn dào ：“ ruò shì nǐ bèi zhuā dào ， jiù bú huì qiān chě dào tā le ? wǔ bǎi wàn de gòng xiàn dù ， nán dào tā jiù duì nǐ zhè me fàng xīn ?“
继续问道：“若是你被抓到，就不会牵扯到他了?五百万的贡献度，难道他就对你这么放心?“
"You can't leave now," the Five Elders' Association cultivator said coldly.
lǐ fán zé shì chè dǐ bù nài fán qǐ lái ：“ zhè jiù bù láo nǐ men cāo xīn le 。 huà shuō nǐ men dào dǐ jiāo bù jiāo yì ?“
李凡则是彻底不耐烦起来：“这就不劳你们操心了。话说你们到底交不交易?“
"I know, I know! You're afraid the test questions might be wrong, right?" Li Fan acted unconcerned.
“ bù jiāo yì wǒ jiù zǒu le 。 chū lái hùn dǎn zi hái zhè me xiǎo !“
“不交易我就走了。出来混胆子还这么小!“
"Look at you, acting like you've never seen the world."
lǐ fán bù mǎn de kàn ruò zhe èr rén 。
李凡不满的看若着二人。
He showed a trace of disdain as he sat down and crossed his legs.
“ zài shuō ， nǐ guǎn gēn shuí jiāo yì ， zhǐ yào shì tí shì zhēn de bù jiù xíng le ?“
“再说，你管跟谁交易，只要试题是真的不就行了?“
"It doesn't matter; I can wait here until the exam ends,"
shēng ruò hóng zhōng ， méi yǒu bàn diǎn zhē yǎn 。
声若洪钟，没有半点遮掩。
As for me, remember my long-term path to immortality on 82zw.com.
Three days later.
By the time the sun was setting, Li Fan sat cross-legged at the bottom of the sea,闭着眼睛修炼.
Suddenly sensing a yellow light emanating from the broken stone, Li Fan opened his eyes and asked, "Head? How's it going? Is the test real?"
"Haha, you've really made a big contribution this time!" The voice was filled with uncontainable excitement.
"The test is real! The division isn't far off!"
"I've heard that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance appears to be prosperous on the surface but is deeply corrupt internally. But it turns out it's even more exaggerated than what I heard!"
"Such a major matter as the organizational entrance exam, which decides its future and destiny, has actually been used for personal gain!"
"This is just the Heng Family in Tianyu Prefecture! What about those with greater power? It's beyond my imagination to think of how corrupt they are!"
The person's understanding seemed greatly impacted. He kept shaking his head, clearly unable to believe what he was hearing.
Li Fan interjected, "Isn't this better for us? The sooner the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance dies out, the sooner we can unify the Xuanhuang Realm under our Five Elders' Association."

The person carefully instructed Li Fan on numerous precautions before explaining the meeting method and then vanished.
After destroying the scene as usual, Li Fan returned to Tang'an Island.
In the depths of the protective array, Li Fan and his clone sat face-to-face.
"Ten Thousand Hidden Treasures Pavilion..."
This place was familiar to Li Fan; it was where the 12th generation He Zhenghao stored his legacy, 'A Detailed Explanation of the Hundred Vessel Array Diagram,' in Cunyun Island from the Cloud Sea.
And Zhou Qingang had also obtained the person's spirit stones through this place in a past life.
"Perhaps this is a hidden base for our Five Elders' Association," Li Fan pondered and immediately used the [One Hand Covers Heaven] secret technique, wearing the [Hidden Qi Token], to conceal his clone’s cultivation level as he waited for the Five Elders' Association's people to arrive.
The main body randomly transformed into another appearance and traveled through a teleportation array first, heading towards Cunyun Island.
After some time, when Li Fan had quietly hidden in the sea outside Cunyun Island,
