Xue Mu pulled out a scroll from the Storage Ring and handed it to Li Fan.

“This is a scroll I drew based on the scenery from my memory.”

“Even though it has been altered hundreds of times, it still captures only a fraction of its true charm.”

“However, every time I redraw it with a calm manner, it feels like a refreshing cleansing for my mind and body. The benefits are immeasurable.”

“I hadn’t noticed it before, but after our conversation, I’ve just realized it.”

“My rapid progress during this period could be due to the frequent recall of the time spent admiring the scene.”

Xue Mu spoke very seriously.

“Mortal Turning God…”

Curiously, Li Fan took the scroll and unrolled it.

In a moment, the scenery in front of him seemed to change dramatically.

A frail figure, dressed in white, looks up at the sky.

The figure was small, yet it seemed to stand against the whole universe.

In the sky, clouds were continually rolling over, taking on different shapes.

Layers and layers, building an intense pressure.

Strong winds danced, stirring the cloud layers like snow.

White robes fluttering, the frail figure stood undisturbed in the face of the sky’s plummeting pressure.

Facing the oppression of heaven and earth, his aura only grew stronger.

Suddenly, he took a step forward.

Then the white clouds rolled back, disintegrating into disorder.

He moved forward again.

The clouds dispersed, and the sky was clear as a washed jade.

Then, unusual appearances arose between heaven and earth.

Countless traces of Golden Light appeared, accompanied by slowly falling, exotic flowers.

All kinds of auspicious Exotic Beasts flew in from the horizon, singing joyfully.

On the earth, a profusion of flowers bloomed, as though spring had arrived in the blink of an eye.

The slender figure seemed to emit a soft laughter.

Then he put his hands behind his back and took another step forward.

With this step, he went to the sky.

He merged with the vast Vault of Heaven and disappeared.

Caught in the trance of the scroll, Xue Mu said with a modest smile, “My art is lacking, I hope the crude drawing didn’t embarrass you.”

“The actual sight was a hundred times more stunning than my drawing.”

“It’s merely a reflection on the Mortal-to-God Barrier. I can’t even begin to comprehend how magnificent the actual scene of a mortal becoming a god must have been.”

Xue Mu commented nostalgically.

“Xue is gifted in painting, it’s simply immersive.” Li Fan replied politely, however, his eyes never left the scroll, closely observing the white figure in the painting.

There was a bit of disbelief in his heart.

Even though the painting is an imitation of the images in the barrier and might have deviated significantly from the actual scene, the sensation he got from it felt strangely familiar to Li Fan.

“Mr. Bai?”

During his time in the Fallen Immortal Realm, Li Fan had had several encounters with this mysterious strong figure.

But they have always been passing each other, with Li Fan only able to catch glimpses of his vague figure.

This is exactly why, upon seeing this imitation painting, he was able to instantly recognize it.

At Mr. Bai’s level, it’s more about the spirit than the form.

Once you’ve met him, it’s hard to mistake him for someone else.

Moreover, Li Fan’s intuition has always been accurate.

He’s almost certain that the [Mortal to God Wall] in Tianyun State had captured the scene of Mr. Bai turning from a mortal into a god, ascending to the heavens in one step.

Li Fan suddenly recalled that Xu Ke had once vowed, while watching Mr. Bai demonstrate his power and slaying numerous Exotic Beasts.

Mr. Bai was a mortal not too long ago.

That’s what Mr. Bai had personally told him.

“Looking at it now, perhaps Mr. Bai didn’t lie. Before parting with Xu Ke, he was indeed just a mortal.”

“But once he had an enlightenment, he became a God Transforming cultivator.”

Although he had heard about the phenomenon of “Mortal Turning God” before.

Still, legends are after all, just legends.

When the protagonist of the legend turned out to be someone he knew, Li Fan found it surprisingly difficult to accept for a moment.

“What type of talent does one need to transform into a god overnight?”

Reflecting on his painstaking plans over the years, having reincarnated hundreds of times, he was only at the Mid Stage Golden Core now.

Li Fan couldn’t help but feel a little lost.

Even though this happened in the ancient times where harmonizing man with nature and enlightenment were highly valued, it was still somewhat beyond Li Fan’s imagination.

“That is…”

“The gap between people is really too big.”

However, Li Fan was after all mentally strong. After a moment, he quickly regained his composure after a brief trance.

He secretly shook his head, sighed a little.

But he couldn’t help but want to go to the [Mortal to God Wall] himself, to witness Mr. Bai’s demeanor.

At the same time, he was more looking forward to his next experience in the Fallen Immortal Realm.

Taking a deep breath, Li Fan put away the painting and handed it back to Xue Mu.

“Thank you, my friend. Today, after seeing your great work, I have gained much.” Li Fan thanked him sincerely.

Xue Mu was a bit flustered: “Oh no, I don’t deserve such praise. It was your reminder that led me to the God Transformation Wall. I should be thanking you.”

“You two young ones, really make one’s teeth ache. I don’t know if it’s a show or an act.” While the two were humbly interacting, a somewhat sarcastic voice suddenly sounded.

Li Fan looked over and saw that the person speaking was the fat man Huang Fusong he had met earlier at the Universal Academy.

Not angry, Li Fan replied with some surprise: “Oh, it’s Senior Huang Fusong. I didn’t expect you to be alive?”

“When I heard Master Ji say not to worry about Dan Taitao being attacked again, I thought you had been…”

“Senior Huang Fu really has deep connections. I admire that.”

Li Fan said solemnly.

Seeing Li Fan bringing up his slip of the tongue at that time, Huang Fusong’s face turned the color of a pig’s liver: “Boy, stop talking nonsense.”

“The incident of Dan Taitao being attacked has absolutely nothing to do with me.”

Li Fan quickly nodded, expressing his understanding and promising to keep it a secret.

Huang Fusong almost burst into laughter: “You, kid, your acting really has reached the Realm of Transmutation. I don’t know if you’re pretending to be dumb or if you really are.”

Xue Mu looked a bit lost between the two, not knowing what kind of riddle they were playing.

Just then, Ji Hongdao’s voice suddenly rang out.

“Alright, Huang Fu. Why are you, such an adult, bickering with a junior?”

“Quickly bring them over. We’re about to set off.”

Ji Hongdao still had some authority over Huang Fusong.

Huang Fusong didn’t dare delay. He snorted, grabbed Li Fan and Xue Mu with each hand.

They flickered for a while, and amidst changing light and shadow, they appeared on a flying boat.

Ji Hongdao was standing on the deck, waiting for them.

After being put down by Huang Fusong, Li Fan and Xue Mu quickly paid their respects to Ji Hongdao.

Ji Hongdao just nodded slightly, his eyes fixated on what lay ahead, seemingly looking at something.

“Master Ji, what is this flying boat?”

After a moment, Li Fan boldly asked.

“Originally, the plan was to gather you and the rest of the Array Masters from the Tianyu State Array Hall, and head to the Hidden Dragon Cave Heaven for Array Construction.”

“However, I suddenly received a new assignment and need to hurry to the [Dominating Abyss].”

“There was a slight problem there that needs manpower, so I took you along.”

Ji Hongdao casually explained.
