Of the thirteen people who entered the Central Array, aside from Li Fan, all were teenagers.

They had been instructed not to speak casually and simply observed their surroundings with excited and curious eyes.

The moment they stepped into the array, their environment was drastically different from Liuli Island.

It was as if they had been transported from a bustling city to a dense forest in an instant, surrounded by lush trees and filled with the sounds of birds and insects.

Looking into the distance, countless peaks intertwined and the mountainside undulated.

A slight breeze blew through, rustling the leaves, the sound echoing continuously.

Li Fan and the others were standing at the foot of a mountain at this moment.

Looking up, the mountaintop was hidden in a thick cloud, invisible to the eye.

They all began to climb up the ancient stone steps and continued without rest for two hours.

The teenagers, all of robust constitution, climbed for so long without even the smallest pant for breath.

But Li Fan, due to his older age and perhaps a lack of recent exercise, was drenched in sweat and just barely managed to keep up without falling behind.

After another hour, everyone finally reached the top of the mountain.

The mountaintop was just a small clearing, and everyone was standing scattered, a little crowded.

This peak was the tallest among the surrounding mountains, and all around there was nothing but a vast sea of white clouds.

The wind howled and the sea of clouds rolled, occasionally revealing the tops of islands-like mountains.

All these teenagers were born and raised in a sea, and they had never seen such a magnificent scene before.

They all stood in awe, lost in thought.

For Li Fan, this scenery appeared ordinary. He squinted and observed the sun in the sky.

They had already been in the array for half a day, but the position of the sun hadn’t changed at all.

This probably was a part of some kind of illusion.

“How is the view?” Suddenly, a voice spoke beside them.

The teenagers were startled, but soon they all reacted.

“Greetings to the Immortal Teacher!” They bowed in greeting.

Li Fan also followed suit and saluted.

The one who showed up was naturally Master He, the one who guards Liuli Island.

This man appeared to be around thirty years old, was dressed in a green robe.

With kindly brows, a smiling face, and an amiable demeanor, he really looked like a good old man.

Seeing that the Immortal Teacher was not as frightening as rumored, one of the teenagers boldly plucked up the courage to answer: “The scenery here is magnificent and worthy of being a sacred place for immortals.”

“I have never seen such a strange and awe-inspiring sight. It’s breathtaking.”

Master He was grinning from ear to ear, but his next words instantly quieted the young people present in the group: “When I first came to Liuli Island, this mountain was situated at the back of the mountains, far below the sea of clouds.”

The teenagers were silenced by Master He’s words. After a moment of silence, one of them began to shower him with praise: “The Immortal Teacher’s divine technique is truly unfathomable, being able to make the mountain taller.”

Master He let out a laugh: “I’m just a humble Foundation Establishment Stage

Cultivator. How could I have such capability?”

The teenager who had just flattered him immediately flushed in embarrassment and lowered his head in shame.

The rest of the guys were also baffled and unsure of what Master He’s statement meant.

But Li Fan, who had been looking at the countless mountain peaks in the cloud sea, seemed to be deep in thought.

“Did you know that the mountains of the world can gradually grow taller, just like people?” Master He didn’t leave them in suspense any longer and slowly explained.

The teenagers all stared with their mouths wide open, their faces full of disbelief.

“That’s really too incredible…”

“Really… really? Could it be that these mountains and rivers are also alive?”

Although the fact that mountains can grow taller was shocking, since this was stated by their lordly Immortal Teacher, the teenagers naturally chose to believe it.

But their faces all turned pale, and it took some time for them to accept this reality.

Master He continued: “Some mountain peaks, although seemingly tall, have exhausted their lifespan and can’t grow taller anymore. Some may be just small mounds now, but they have limitless potential. Who knows, after several years, they might grow to become a towering pillar.”

“Just like the Shao Wei Mountain under our feet, it was insignificant back in the day, but in just a few decades, it has become so tall that it overlooks all the other mountains.”

“Of course, most mountains, like the countless peaks under this sea of clouds, only serve as background, silently looking up to the mountains above the sea of clouds.”

“If this is the case for mountains, what about people?”

“Today, you guys are fortunate enough to step into the Spirit Pool and cleanse the miasma on your bodies. Whether you can step onto the Immortal Path and even have a chance at the Eternal Life Path, and what achievements you will have in the future, all depend on your individual destiny.”

Looking at the confused faces of the teenagers, Master He sighed.

“No matter what happens in the future, today you must make an all-out effort.

Enough talk, off you go!”

“Immortal Teacher, where is the Spirit Cleansing Pond?” Although they didn’t quite understand the meaning of Master He’s words, they still understood they could finally enter the Spirit Cleansing Pond.

With their young excitement, one of them eagerly asked.

“It’s right there!” Master He said calmly.

Everyone followed his gaze, and where he pointed, it was clearly beyond the tiny area at the top of the mountain. It was at the edge of a cliff!

“Is the Immortal Teacher joking?” A teenager couldn’t help but exclaim in shock.

Master He’s expression changed, and with a cold snort, without showing any action, that teenager’s head was sent flying high, and his body fell heavily to the ground.

Blood splattered, staining everyone nearby.

This sudden scene shocked the teenagers.

Some people were so frightened they wanted to scream, but they tightly covered their mouths, trembling and pale.

Some were scared to the point where their bodies went limp and they fell to the ground.

Some immediately fell to their knees and bowed their heads to Master He, apologizing.

“I’ll teach you guys one more lesson. When you start your cultivation in the future, having a broad perspective is also very important. You need to figure out who you can insult, who you cannot offend, what you can say, and what you cannot. Don’t wait until the day you meet your doom and then blame me for not warning you.” Master He looked sternly at the teenagers, his demeanor had completely changed from his previously friendly image.

Li Fan watched this drama unfold. Seeing the varying reactions of the teenagers, he knew that this lesson from Master He would leave a deep impression on them.

Not just the teenagers, but even Li Fan himself gained a new insight from Master He’s speech.

He deeply bowed to Master He and sincerely said, “Thank you for your instruction.”

Then he turned around and walked to the edge of the mountain.

In front of him was a cliff thousands of feet high. One misstep would lead to certain death.

But Li Fan did not hesitate or falter. He took a step off the cliff with a stoic expression.

He did not fall. The sea of clouds beneath him, as if conscious, rolled up and came under Li Fan’s foot, steadily supporting him.

He stepped out with his other foot, and once he was stable, he was whisked away into the depths of the sea of clouds by the rolling white clouds.

Looking at Li Fan’s disappearing figure, Master He couldn’t help but murmur,

“He has an excellent mindset. It’s just a shame that he’s quite old.”

“What a pity!”
