331: Chapter 331 The Azure Cloud Project: Refining the Fire Seed!

"Li Fan pays his respects to Inspector Sir!"

Li Fan immediately rushed forward, cupped his hands, and performed a grand bow to Ai Xin.

Seeing Li Fan do this, Ai Xin couldn't help but nod faintly.

Then, Ai Xin got straight to the point regarding the purpose of her visit with Li Fan.

"I have observed your performance in every stage of the Inheritance Competition. Your talent and overall comprehensive abilities in other aspects are excellent, so I intend to invite you to join the qingyun plan."

As soon as these words were spoken,

Li Fan was filled with confusion.

"The qingyun plan?"

Regarding Li Fan's confusion, Ai Xin quickly provided an explanation.

"The qingyun plan is a brand-new project established by our Cosmic Cloud Company this year. We plan to cultivate a batch of outstanding young forces to serve as talent reserves. At that time, headquarters will provide the optimal resources to train you."

Hearing this, Li Fan's heart surged with tumultuous waves.

The qingyun plan, in simple terms, was a scheme established by the Cosmic Cloud Company to cultivate its own outstanding young talents.

This meant that as long as he joined this plan, he could obtain the generous resources of the Cosmic Cloud Company!

And as a behemoth across the entire Great Universe, the resources the Cosmic Cloud Company possessed for talent cultivation were enough to make one incredibly excited just thinking about it.

Therefore, Li Fan naturally had no reason to refuse.

But just as Li Fan was about to agree immediately, Ai Xin's voice sounded again.

"Don't be too quick to agree. Before that, let me explain some of the risks associated with the qingyun plan."

"First, the qingyun plan has an elimination mechanism. Although you have already comprehended a wisp of Law Power, your competitors will also include quite a few who have comprehended Law Power, and their realms might even far surpass yours."

"Second, the qingyun plan is not a simple training program, so there will be dangers during the process, possibly even life-threatening ones."

"Third, after joining the qingyun plan, you might need to stay at headquarters for a very long time. I cannot give you an accurate timeframe for this. It might be a few years at the short end, but decades or even centuries are possible."

"Therefore, before you make your choice, I suggest you consider it carefully."

Listening to Ai Xin's words,

Li Fan nodded, and then, almost without much thought, he gave his answer directly.

"Inspector Sir, I have thought it through. I agree to join the qingyun plan!"

That's right.

These three risks were actually not an issue for Li Fan at all!

Elimination?

Not a chance!

He had that confidence!

Perish?

Even less of a chance!

He was even more confident in this regard!

As for the last point, needing to stay at headquarters for a long time?

As long as resource supply was guaranteed, he had plenty of time!

Therefore, hesitating for even one second over the qingyun plan would be disrespecting the massive resources of the Cosmic Cloud Company!

Hearing Li Fan's response, Ai Xin was very satisfied.

"Good. Since that is the case, wait until you finish the Inheritance Competition, and then wait for notification. The qingyun plan is still in its initial stages, and personnel have not been fully gathered, so the assembly time is temporarily undetermined."

...

After discussing the matters of the qingyun plan with Li Fan, Ai Xin said nothing more to him and directly told Li Fan to withdraw.

After exiting the virtual network,

Li Fan genuinely developed a few sparks of anticipation for the qingyun plan.

Just how vast of resources would a behemoth like the Cosmic Cloud Company pour into cultivating talent?!

Soon, however, Li Fan pushed the matter of the qingyun plan to the back of his mind.

The qingyun plan was a matter for later.

What he needed to do right now was to refine that crimson lotus tribulation flame seed, then seize the championship of the fourth stage, and obtain the immortal inheritance.

Immediately after,

Li Fan took a deep breath and began the refinement.

...

Unconsciously.

Time flew by, having passed for more than a month.

During this past month,

The Wushan Seat Forum was still enthusiastically discussing the third stage of the Inheritance Competition.

However, as the schedule for the fourth stage drew nearer and nearer,

Posts speculating on the format of the fourth stage also became increasingly numerous.

Some guessed it might be similar to the third stage, involving being sent to a secret realm to seize opportunities.

Others speculated it might revert to the one-on-one matching battle format from the first stage.

For a time, opinions were divided.

But the specific format would obviously only be known once the fourth stage officially began.

And it wasn't just the Wushan Seat Public speculating.

Even the Contestants currently on the spaceship, about to head to the fourth stage trial, were guessing about the rules of the fourth stage.

There was no choice.

As the fourth stage grew closer,

They all found it hard to settle down and cultivate.

Of course, this was mainly because in the less than one month remaining, even if they wanted to cultivate, it would be hard to achieve any significant breakthrough.

However, there were exceptions.

For instance, Li Fan, who had been in seclusion for over a month now.

Li Fan's incredibly fierce cultivation pace had undoubtedly spread among the Contestants.

If it were someone else, perhaps other Contestants would criticize him for putting on an act to build a persona.

But this was Li Fan.

The Contestants could only think: In less than two months, wouldn't Li Fan's strength evolve once again?

And their worry was clearly very reasonable!

Inside Li Fan's cultivation chamber.

At this moment, Li Fan's body was enveloped by a layer of crimson-gold flames, making him look like a monarch of flames, incredibly mystical!

Then,

Li Fan suddenly opened his eyes, and a stream of blazing light shot out from his pupils.

"Refining this fire seed is indeed a bit difficult!"

"However, the effect after refining is quite excellent!"

Li Fan spoke slowly at this moment, a trace of excitement on his face.

The next second,

Li Fan snapped his fingers lightly, and a terrifying flame instantly appeared above Li Fan's palm.

That's right.

The current Li Fan had already completely refined the crimson lotus tribulation flame seed!
