第九百二十八章 仙选者之殇

Even his divine consciousness probed around, sensing nothing but emptiness.

Day after day, the 33 selected cultivators were immersed in the lingering aura of the Transcendent Sage. Their bodies and souls began to undergo subtle changes.

In the darkness, time seemed to lose its meaning.

When they finally emerged from their confinement, their demeanor, actions, and even their gaze had become strikingly similar.

...

Seeing this, a flash of insight appeared in Li Fan's mind. He finally recalled where that familiar feeling from the middle-aged cultivator came from.

The icy glint in his eyes was almost identical to the first Essence-Weaving Scripture!

"Just like these selected cultivators, although not the same person, they share a common experience due to some reason. Thus, they have become increasingly similar..."

"I wonder why I couldn't find anyone with the same face."

"The first Essence-Weaving Scripture and this middle-aged cultivator are subtly different from those black-robed cultivators who seem to come from another era, as well as that 'Wu'. How many secrets does the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance hide?"

Li Fan's mind raced with countless thoughts. He then continued to examine Wei Qi's subsequent experiences.

...

After the second lesson ended, it was time for the final training. The 33 selected cultivators were led to different states.

In a special space, they sensed the residual power hidden within the Transcendent Sage statue.

With previous training, this goal became much easier.

Of course, that was relative.

Inside the sealed space, all they could do was focus on this task. There was even some subtle influence guiding their minds, making it impossible for them to think about anything else.

They only needed to sense day and night, hoping to achieve synchronization sooner rather than later.

Indeed, at this stage, the 33 selected cultivators were almost indistinguishable from each other. The time difference between their progress was less than two days.

All 33 completed an initial sensing of the Transcendent Sage's residual power.

Then, through a pure beam of light, despite being in different places within the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, they connected their consciousnesses.

It was a wondrous experience. The 33 felt like one entity, able to communicate without words instantly.

A single thought surpassed thousands of words.

Their long-formedunderstanding without words (mòqì) made their collective thoughts remarkably singular, with little fluctuation.

...

"Um?" Li Fan's train of thought was interrupted again.

"What’s going on? This pure beam of light..."

"Why does it have a hint of Sister Zhao's 'Unity of All'? "

A look ofunexplained (bùjiě) flashed in his eyes.

As the Longevity Transcendent Sage that Li Fan knew best, Sister Zhao had personally experienced her unique ability to unite all. After repeatedly examining the scene when the pure beam appeared, Li Fan finally noticed something.

The 33 selected cultivators' minds were perfectly synchronized, leaving no room for other entities.

"Is it just a simple application of fundamental laws? Is this not another 'Unity of All'? Could Sister Zhao's power have been stolen?" Li Fan frowned slightly.

"Does the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance still possess such abilities?"

As expected, as their minds began to merge, the pure beam gradually disappeared. Eventually, even without external assistance, these 33 could achieve mental synchronization.

After thousands of attempts, they finally triggered the immense power left by the Transcendent Sage.

The impact of the middle-aged cultivator's statement "A glance from the Transcendent Sage is equivalent to a strike in the Longevity Realm" was too great. Thus, without hesitation, the first appearance of the Transcendent Sage's form was "Opening Eyes and Leveling Nine Mountains."

After their initial success, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance allowed them a brief respite.

However, this so-called rest merely gave them some free time to stay in that special space, still unable to leave.

Following a short break, they continued their attempts, becoming increasingly proficient as the power of the Transcendent Sage grew larger.

One day...

When the Transcendent Sage's form grabbed the giant net woven from the celestial arrow and threw it towards the Five Elders' territory, the intervention of the Five Elders' Longevity Sages was finally triggered according to plan.

The 33 selected cultivators directly detonated their forms, releasing all their instantaneous power to block the five Longevity Sages and prevent the giant net from landing.

They succeeded despite feeling exhausted.

Less than Perfect Union Realm, they could still face the current strongest Five Longevity Sages head-on!

What honor!

But before they could bask in their achievement, another command was issued:

"Continue evolving the form!"

The 33 were simultaneously shaken. Even now, summoning the Transcendent Sage's form was not an easy task.

It heavily consumed their minds and required recovery afterward. But this mysterious voice seemed to have some kind of power that made them unable to defy it.

They all subconsciously obeyed.

...

Another form emerged.

Before they could rest, that cold, unfeeling voice rang out again:

"Continue!"

The 33 selected cultivators realized something was wrong. If this continued, they would surely die from overexertion!

But they couldn't disobey the command.

With each order, five Transcendent Sage forms eventually appeared in the world.

Due to the short time of drawing on their essence and spirit, these 33 selected cultivators reached the end of their lives.

"Why?"

"We are not the hope for the revival of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance?"

"Are we not heroes?"

In their final moments, all 33 filled with confusion and resentment.

But until their consciousnesses plunged into darkness, no one came to explain anything. Not even a word of mockery.

...

"I am often called Master Li, the great villain."

"I once thought so myself."

"But today I realized..."

"Compared to the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, I still have something to learn."

After finishing Wei Qi's story, Li Fan couldn't help but sigh.

Returning to reality, the shockwaves from the confrontation between the five forms and the Five Longevity Sages continued to intensify. The battlefield seemed momentarily frozen as the five beams of light intertwined with the Transcendent Sage forms.

This form, summoned by the life essence of the 33 selected cultivators, was much stronger than before.

Facing the attack from the five Longevity Sages, their bodies shattered but did not disperse.

Finally, when the giant net woven from the celestial arrow landed on the Five Elders' territory, the scene in the Heavenly and Profound Mirror changed again.
