Chapter 364: 341: Unaware Despite Existence

“Heh, over the years, the Five Elders Organization put into great effort to reclaim the remains of Celestial Venerable Green Lotus.”

“Another example, the Sealed Stone Tablet of the Ancient Heavenly Sword Sect. It is said that two colossal stones were erected in front of the Heavenly Sword Sect’s gate. One was carved with ‘Halt, all who loaf’, and the other ‘Halt, all who come in aggression’. These two stones were as impenetrable as infinite mountain-protecting arrays. They radiated authority.”

“Alas, the Divine Collection Pavilion only managed to collect the ‘Halt, all who come in aggression’ stone tablet. The whereabouts of the ‘Halt, all who loaf’ stone tablet is still a mystery.”

Upon hearing this, Li Fan couldn’t help but think of his own ‘Halt, all who loaf’ fragment tablet.

I wonder if it’s the same stone tablet as the one from the Heavenly Sword Sect?

Just as Li Fan was lost in thought, the Black-clothed cultivator’s words forcefully drew his attention back.

“That’s right, speaking of the Divine Collection Pavilion, one cannot fail to mention the remains of the first cultivator who contracted the Immortal-Ordinary Miasma. You may not know this, but these seemingly ordinary bones were sought after fervently by countless cultivators. They were incredibly valuable. The skull from his remains exhibited at the heart of the pavilion’s collection is quite a sight.”

“I initially thought it was the remains of some ancient powerhouse. Hmph, who would’ve thought it was just some unlucky soul.”

“I truly don’t understand those people. What’s the point of collecting such things?”

For reasons unknown, the Black-clothed cultivator seemed to get somewhat excited while discussing the Museum of Divine Artifacts, and began introducing the various artifacts within to Li Fan and the others.

Han Yi and Xi Men Yue listened intently with great interest.

On the other hand, Li Fan had an idea.

“The remains of the first cultivator afflicted with the Immortal-Ordinary Miasma …”

“I have one of his ribs stored within my storage ring. After Yin Shangren self-immolated, this rib was all that remained.”

Li Fan couldn’t help but direct his interest towards the skull displayed in the Divine Collection Pavilion.

Seeing as the Black-clothed cultivator paused, Li Fan seized the opportunity to ask, “Senior, what should one do if they wish to visit the Divine Collection Pavilion like those people we just saw?”

The Black-clothed cultivator chuckled, “The Museum of Divine Artifacts is usually not open to outsiders. No amount of contribution points would suffice. If you wish to apply for a visit, learn something new but have no influential backgrounds, the easiest way would be to pass the exam, and become a full-time narrator for the Museum of Divine Artifacts like I did before.”

Li Fan was taken aback, and exchanged glances with Han Yi and Xi Men Yue.

“Why does the Divine Collection Pavilion need dedicated narrators?” Xi Men Yue asked baffled.

The Black-clothed cultivator chuckled, “And why shouldn’t they have narrators? Do you think that simply placing plaques in front of each collection would be enough?”

“Firstly, within the Divine Collection Pavilion, just like the grand avenue in front of the Law Enforcement Hall you just walked past, Spiritual Energy is in a state of dormancy. Even divine consciousness is unable to leave the body. All exhibit information is simply indicated. If one wants to know the stories behind them, naturally, they need exclusive narrators.”

“Besides, aren’t you misunderstanding the scale of the Divine Collection Pavilion?” The Black-clothed cultivator chuckled.

“What’s housed in there are the collections spanning thousands of years from the whole Alliance of Thousands of Immortals. The number of exhibits when I left was three hundred and eighty-four million, seven hundred and eighty-five thousand, six hundred and seventy-four. If there aren’t professionals to guide, ordinary people who go in for a visit would have an impossible task finding the exhibits they wish to see. If they desire a satisfactory and thorough visit within the limited time, it’s nothing but a dream.”

“Even more, as you saw just now, who are those that visit the Divine Collection Pavilion? Without narrators, could they understand anything?”

The Black-clothed cultivator harrumphed and said no more.

With a look of taking the lesson to heart, Li Fan and the others stayed silent.

After a moment of silence, the Black-clothed cultivator continued, “Of course, if you join the structure of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals and raise your merit to rank thirty, you’ll have a chance for a free visit every decade.”

“But, well, rank thirty.”

The Black-clothed cultivator shook his head, “It’s quite hard to raise to that. Even I haven’t reached it yet.”

Then, he looked at Han Yi and said with a hint of smile, “Of course, Han, if you cultivate diligently and break through to the Unity Realm, then it’s not that troublesome. Just send a notification and you can go.”

Han Yi couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed, “Senior is joking. Entering the Unity Realm, even if I possess the techniques, isn’t easy.”

The Black-clothed cultivator chuckled deeply and said nothing more.

The following journey passed without further conversation.

The Black-clothed cultivator led Li Fan and the others back to the platform where they first arrived.

“Alright, I’d say my mission from the Immortal is complete. We’ll meet again if the stars align.”

The Black-clothed cultivator stated impassively.

Li Fan felt an unknown power enveloping him.

It seemed as if he was about to be repelled by the surrounding space, about to leave the headquarters of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.

“How should I address you, senior?” At the moment of departure, Li Fan looked at the black-clothed cultivator and asked.

“Just a nobody, don’t have any name. When I’m a commentator, I am Commentator Ding Yin. When I’m a guide, I am Guide Hei. That’s it.” The black-clothed cultivator shook his head, not answering any further.

As the figure of Guide Hei gradually disappeared from sight, Li Fan and the other two found themselves back in the Four Seasons Garden of the Sky Extremity Institute.

Their location was no different from where they were before going to the headquarters of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.

“Fellow Daoist Han, having visited the headquarters of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, do you know where it is located?” Li Fan looked at Han Yi and asked with a smile.

After pondering for a moment, Han Yi answered, “If I’m not mistaken, the headquarters of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals is likely situated within the Tianxuan Mirror.”

However, Xi Men Yue disagreed, “I believe that the Tianxuan Mirror merely functions as a teleportation tool.”

“If the headquarters is inside the Tianxuan Mirror…”

“Considering how many Tianxuan Mirrors there are in the world, wouldn’t that mean where there is a Tianxuan Mirror is the location of the headquarters of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals?”

“In that case, what is the purpose of Tianyu, Tianchen, Tianshu, Tianquan, and the Central Region?”

Hearing this, Han Yi was speechless and didn’t know how to refute.

Upon thinking closely, Li Fan felt that both of them had their valid points, and so he played the role of the mediator.

However, after some discussion, the three didn’t take it too seriously.

After thanking the Supreme Celestial for his favor and bidding him farewell, the three went to the Debating Tower in Tianquan Province. Funded by Han Yi, they had a grand feast.

Every feast must end.

And then the three went their separate ways.

Xi Men Yue stayed in Tianquan Province.

While Li Fan and Han Yi traveled together to Yuandao State.

In a blink, half a year passed.

Inside the Tianxuan Mirror, Li Fan finally managed to start practicing the “Extraordinary True Spirit Transformation Technique.”

“Just as well that I haven’t trained my avatar yet. Now that I’ve mastered the technique, let’s see the results.”

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Li Fan dressed up and headed straight to the outskirts of Tianyu City.

Digging out a secret room, with all materials ready, Li Fan began the ritual.

Half a moment later…

A clump of flesh and blood exploded abruptly.

“Huh? Why did it fail?”

Li Fan looked puzzled.

Then he tried again.

A failure again.

Li Fan furrowed his eyebrows deeply.

“Wait, this situation is…”

“There’s already an avatar of mine in existence?”

Li Fan was suddenly struck with shock.
