Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 883 - 443: Celestial-Fighting Axe Talisman, Another Fate Prompt_2
Previously on Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World...
Clearly, the arrival of this Life Talisman serves as yet another powerful ace in his arsenal.
With that idea sparking in his mind, Jiang Fan felt a surge within, and he swiftly pulled up the virtual interface linked to himself.

[Lifespan: 150,000 years]

[Realm: First-Layer Divinity Transformation (55%)]
[Profession: Tier Five Low Grade Talisman Master (30%)]
No doubt about it, his personal stats have surged far beyond their previous levels.
The most striking change, naturally, lies in his lifespan. Upon reaching the First-Layer Divinity Transformation, it has ballooned impressively to 150,000 years—an incredibly vast stretch of time.
Should this become known, it would stun innumerable Human Race cultivators.
Not even the mighty figures among the Human Race, who devour heaps of longevity pills and heavenly herbs, can boast such extended existences.
"Just 20 million Luck Points left?"
"Yeah, I've burned through a ton of them lately."
Jiang Fan rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
Earlier, during his tribulation crossing, he'd racked up a solid haul of Luck Points.
Yet, aiding fellow cultivators in awakening their Life Charts and grasping the Celestial-Fighting Axe Talisman had drained a massive chunk, leaving him with merely 20 million now.
Still, this sum towers over his past reserves—it's a fortune in itself.
That said, stepping into the Divinity Transformation Realm means Luck Points will vanish at an even fiercer rate.
Soon enough, 20 million will feel like pocket change.
Besides, he'd never complain about having too much Luck.
An enigmatic force like Luck? The more he hoards, the better.
"And the First-Layer Divinity Transformation progress sits at 55% already?"
"Cultivation's advancing quicker than I imagined."
"This boost comes straight from the Heavenly Dao's favor."
"Lacking that divine boon, it wouldn't have leaped forward so dramatically."
"Plus, the vibrant cultivation aura of this realm plays a huge role."
"Back in the Void Realm, such rapid gains would be impossible."
Jiang Fan couldn't help but feel pleased with his cultivation strides.
Leaving the Void Realm was surely to dodge disasters, yet in a twist, breaking free from its confines has actually sped up his path to power.
The Spirit Ruins Realm truly stands as his paradise of fortune.
By seizing the myriad chances here, he'll undoubtedly climb to loftier heights.
Boom~~
Right then, a rush of intel flooded into the core of his mind.
"Your deeds have deeply reshaped this world's destiny. Those five Divinity Transformation Demon Cultivators you eliminated earlier were Demon Race infiltrators hidden in the Fengming Mountain Range, and they posed as the doom for the Child of Destiny, Ye Linglong.
Thanks to your strike, which wiped them out, Ye Linglong slipped into the Fengming Secret Realm without a hitch, claiming the immortal legacy inside with ease."
Yet her success has enraged the Demon Race beyond measure, driving them to unleash total war on the Human Race. The clash between Human and Demon Races looms near, with a Demon Cave crashing down on the Fengming Mountain Range. Hordes of demonic beasts will overrun the region without end."
"Destiny offers you direction."
"Destiny Hint One: Flee at once—abandon the Fengming Mountain Range and bolt a million kilometers to the southwest. This zone is set to erupt into a savage battleground for Human and Demon Races. Powerhouses at Refining Void and even Integration stages will clash; one wrong move spells total annihilation. No point sticking around to court death."
"Destiny Hint Two: Remember, amid raging tempests lie the richest prizes. In this colossal human-demon conflict, fortune still beckons for you.
Soar ten thousand kilometers southwest to reach White Tiger Mountain. There, a Divinity Transformation Perfection cultivator called Xu Ling will emerge.
But he's a Demon Race agent, his cover blown long ago by the Great Xuan Dynasty. A Refining Void expert from the dynasty will wound him gravely, though he'll trigger a Great Teleportation Talisman to vanish from Fengming City in a flash, landing at White Tiger Mountain.
Strike personally to slay this Demon Race traitor, laden with treasures hoarded over ages. His death will yield you immense rewards."
Absorbing this revelation, Jiang Fan froze for a beat, utterly at a loss for words.
It was pure misfortune out of nowhere—cultivating in peace within the Fengming Mountain Range, only to stumble into this nightmarish crisis, a full-scale Human-Demon war no less.
The root of this chaos traced back to the Child of Destiny, Ye Linglong.
As a Child of Destiny and a harbinger of doom, such figures always unleash colossal upheavals wherever they tread, exactly as seen here.
Without these epic crises, though, her ascent would stall, for disaster and destiny intertwine, hiding golden prospects in the heart of peril.
He hadn't foreseen that Ye Linglong, fresh from igniting her Life Chart, would snag such a rare boon and an immortal inheritance right away—it was wildly over the top.
Beyond question, armed with this legacy, Ye Linglong will surge ahead, becoming an unstoppable force.
"Still, this twist ties back to me in some fashion."
"Had I not slain those Divinity Transformation Demon Cultivators, Ye Linglong would've had to fight harder for that vital inheritance."
"Their demise cleared her path early, thrusting her into deeper trials instead."
"These trials will turbocharge Ye Linglong's rise but summon even fiercer disasters."
Jiang Fan's eyes sharpened.
He sensed how destiny wove its intricate web, where every decision spun endless twists into the tapestry of tomorrow; that's the wild unpredictability of fate, beyond even immortals' grasp.
But his innate divine technique could master it.
Word of that would rattle immortals to their core.
"That said, this shift might not be all bad for me."
"After all, in massive gales, the greatest catches await."
"Without this upheaval, how else could I waylay and finish off Fengming City Lord Xu Ling?"
"Who'd have thought he'd turn out to be a Demon Race mole."
Jiang Fan stroked his chin again.
Having lingered in Fengming City for days on end, he'd naturally picked up plenty of local lore.
Xu Ling, the city's lord, stood out as a celebrated name.
Tales painted him as an elegant scholar, doting on his subjects like family, warm and forgiving, free of vendettas—a true paragon.
Little did anyone know, it was all a mask; deep down, he lurked as a Demon Race operative.
The Great Xuan Dynasty had even sniffed out his secret long before.
They'd held back only to weave a grander snare for bigger prey.
Such was the shadowy duel between Human and Demon Races.
Undeniably, the hidden plots ran deeper and deadlier than he'd ever pictured.
"So, safety lies to the southwest?"
"That direction points toward Donglu City."
From his recent studies, Jiang Fan had grown acquainted with the Great Xuan Dynasty's layout.
His current spot fell under Donglu Province, a vast territory, with Fengming City as one of its outposts.
The provincial capital, Donglu City, fell under the command of Donglu Marquis Yue Peng, a Ninth-Layer Void Refining powerhouse.
Next to the capital's grandeur, Fengming City seemed a mere dot.
Settling in Donglu City promised a flood of cultivation supplies.
That would prove a massive boon for his road ahead.
"Fengming City Lord Xu Ling... I have to end him."
With resolve firm, Jiang Fan's form blurred into motion, packing his belongings in haste before streaking toward White Tiger Mountain.
