Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 924 - 464: A Corner of the Immortal Prison in the Immortal Realm, Ice Prison

However, this could turn out to be a positive development after all.

As the impending calamity draws nearer, Jiang Fan finds himself with limited time to simply boost his magical strength; thus, if an opportunity exists to improve his cultivation speed, he ought to seize it without hesitation.

By reaching the Void Refining stage at the earliest possible moment, he would then stand better prepared to confront the various looming crises within the Void Realm.

He remains fully aware of the host of formidable foes awaiting him in the Void Realm.

Should he remain merely at the Divinity Transformation stage, facing off against such dreadful adversaries might prove impossible for him.

It seems likely that he needs to attain the Void Refining stage prior to venturing back into the Void Realm—that way, his safety would be far more assured.

"Twenty billion spirit stones have vanished just like that?"

"Does this indicate that the journey from the Cyan Stone Demon Cave to this enigmatic location demanded a whopping twenty billion?"

"That's utterly astonishing."

Jiang Fan also realized that a massive twenty billion spirit stones had gone missing from his possession.

One must remember that his transfer from the Void Realm to the Spirit Ruins Realm hadn't required even half that amount, yet moving from the Cyan Stone Demon Cave to this spot had exacted a full twenty billion.

This clearly highlights just how extraordinary his current position is, severed from all ties of cause and effect.

It's safe to assume that without the supreme might of the Gate of the Void, arriving here would have been far from straightforward for him.

"Yet, this proves beneficial in its own right."

"The greater the uniqueness of this location, the more potential fortunes it holds."

"He might well uncover even greater advantages right here."

Jiang Fan stroked his chin thoughtfully.

He believed a thorough inspection of the nearby environment was still necessary.

Naturally, he held little concern regarding the affairs back in Green Willow Village.

With the Cyan Stone Demon Cave now obliterated, the Cyan Stone Mountain Range should enjoy a stretch of peace and stability.

Moreover, he had stationed a doppelgänger within Green Willow Village.

Should any real threat emerge, that doppelgänger could respond and manage it instantly.

Therefore, all he had to do was remain composed in this enigmatic realm, focus on his cultivation for a spell, and that would suffice entirely.

Boom~~

Right then, a transmission surged straight into the depths of his mind.

"Congratulations upon reaching this realm detached from cause and effect; this spot forms a fragment of the Immortal Prison. Due to mysterious circumstances, it plummeted from the Immortal Realm into the Spirit Ruins Realm, transforming into a unique confinement. Creatures who enter here rarely manage to depart; naturally, you're the exception, thanks to the Gate of the Void.

Though you've arrived and evaded the demons' chase for now, your power remains woefully insufficient. You need to rapidly strengthen your cultivation to endure the approaching disaster.

Avoid being deceived by this frozen, barren tundra with its sparse inhabitants, for it brims with boundless prospects. Should you seize certain opportunities, you'll reap enormous rewards without doubt."

"Destiny shall offer you guidance."

"Destiny Hint 1: Merely ten miles from your cavern, a band of individuals flees from the savage beasts of the Immortal Prison, on the verge of serving as their meal.

You have the option to step in, slay those ferocious beasts, and save the fugitives. These fugitives hail from the area and know it intimately; their assistance will enable you to swiftly grasp the lay of the land and access numerous opportunities."

"Destiny Hint 2: Sensing the hassle of saving them, you choose to stand aside, leading to the fugitives' doom under the beasts' claws, thus forfeiting a vital means to explore the Immortal Prison and inviting future difficulties. After all, the unfamiliar always instills the deepest dread in every creature."

Upon receiving this transmission, Jiang Fan stroked his chin once more.

He hadn't expected a Destiny Hint to surface right now, urging him to aid these fugitives.

To him, it hardly qualified as a disaster.

Yet, it marked a pivotal moment in his fate.

Without his involvement, that band would undoubtedly meet their end amid the biting cold and frost.

"Immortal Prison? So the title for this cause-and-effect-isolated domain is the Immortal Prison?"

"And its origins lie in the Immortal Realm?"

"Might it truly be a prison from the Immortal Realm?"

"If that's the case, why has the Immortal Realm's prison descended into the Mortal World—what turmoil has gripped the Immortal Realm?"

Jiang Fan knitted his brows in contemplation.

These upheavals plainly signal that the Immortal Realm faces grave troubles.

The vast chaos in the Immortal Realm has rippled out, impacting countless realms in the Mortal World.

Be it the Void Realm or the Spirit Ruins Realm, both endure such devastating tribulations because of the Immortal Realm's shifts.

Regrettably, with his cultivation stuck at the Third-Layer Divinity Transformation, he lacks the standing to delve deeply into the Immortal Realm's secrets.

Nevertheless, his present abode is undoubtedly shrouded in mystery, brimming with immense possibilities.

"It appears I must proceed with saving this band of fugitives."

Jiang Fan resolved the matter in an instant.

For him, extracting those fugitives demanded no more effort than a casual gesture.

Over a month in this domain, and he hadn't encountered a single native.

Clearly, this enigmatic territory teemed with few inhabitants.

Should he let this chance slip, who could predict when he'd next cross paths with locals.

Whoosh!

This realization prompted Jiang Fan to act without delay, promptly exiting the Exquisite Tower and dashing out of the cavern.

......

At the same time, across a vast expanse of snow-covered wilderness.

A group of dozens dashed desperately through the drifts.

Within their midst were youngsters of five or six, youths in their teens, grown men and women in their thirties and forties, and even seniors pushing seventy or eighty, resembling an entire extended clan in flight.
