363: Chapter 363 The Abyss of Shasha!

Chapter 363: Abode of Cessation!

Half a month later.

Qiongwei Sector.

Tian Beast Star Domain.

In a region of deep space, the Dark Star flickered, tracing a silver-blue spatial contrail across the profound starry sky.

Li Fan gazed into the distance, where ten massive stars stood imposingly.

These ten great stars were known as the Ten Tian Beast Stars.

From their name alone, one could essentially guess the status these planets held within this star domain.

Indeed.

This was precisely the most prosperous region of the Tian Beast Star Domain!

Each of the ten colossal planets was home to hundreds of billions of inhabitants; factoring in transient visitors, the number would be several times greater.

Even Li Fan was seeing, for the first time, planets capable of accommodating several thousand billion living beings at once.

According to Ming Yan.

Before heading to the forbidden land, he needed to purchase some items here.

Soon.

As the spacecraft approached the nearest planet, Li Fan directly switched from the Dark Star to another A-class ship.

Upon reaching the planetary surface, Li Fan was genuinely somewhat stunned by the towering, forest-like megastructures and the dense crowds.

Truth be told, it had been a long time since he had visited such bustling streets.

Immediately after, following a brief period of casual strolling, Li Fan, under Ming Yan's guidance, purchased a black bamboo hat, a crimson robe, a face-concealing mask, and over a hundred cultivation simulation talismans.

Each of these items was, in fact, no ordinary object; they were spirit tools inscribed with array patterns for enhancement. Purchasing them all cost Li Fan a staggering total of over two trillion cosmic coins.

And the bulk of that cost was clearly those cultivation simulation talismans.

As the name suggests, these cultivation simulation talismans could temporarily simulate corresponding cultivation realms. However, they did not grant the user any substantial combat power. They were generally suitable for situations like intimidating opponents, feigning weakness to ambush the strong, or for adventurers encountering powerful enemies to cause misjudgment, facilitating an escape.

Overall, their application scenarios were quite broad.

Of course, if the gap in strength between the two parties was too vast, the effect of these simulation talismans could be seen through at a glance. So, to some extent, they were a bit of a gimmick.

But after all, this thing might save a life or change one's fortune at a critical moment, hence the price was never cheap.

While this item might be useful for others, for Li Fan, it seemed to serve little purpose. Li Fan didn't understand why Ming Yan wanted him to buy them, and so many at that.

But since Ming Yan told him to buy them, there must be some reasoning behind it. Just buy them.

Although spending over two trillion cosmic coins made him wince a bit, it was still acceptable.

With Gu Ling's support behind him, he shouldn't need to worry about money in the short term.

"Senior, what needs to be done next?"

Li Fan transmitted a voice message to Ming Yan at this moment.

Ming Yan's reply was simple and straightforward, simultaneously causing Li Fan to freeze in surprise,

"Next, we can head directly to the forbidden land."

"Directly to the forbidden land?" Li Fan's brows furrowed deeply.

Just go to the forbidden land like this?

Wouldn't that be somewhat too rash?

Buy a few pieces of clothing, a pile of cultivation simulation talismans, and hope to get close to those existences beyond immortality?

Could it be that Ming Yan wanted him to wear these clothes and activate the simulation talismans to play mysterious?

Given the nature of those individuals, wouldn't they see through it at a glance?

For a moment, he even felt like this old codger might be messing with him.

This is too unreliable!

"Mm, directly. Don't you still have to go to the Cosmic Cloud Company Headquarters later? Let's make this quick!" Ming Yan continued.

His reply was extremely casual. At first listen, going to that forbidden land sounded almost like going on a picnic.

Regarding this, Li Fan couldn't help but fall into silence.

Seeing that Li Fan didn't seem to trust him much, Ming Yan immediately continued:

"Just trust me. On the way, I'll teach you how to modify these cultivation simulation talismans. I'll explain the specific plan to you slowly during the journey. You'll also need to memorize some key phrases.

As long as you don't mess up, this trip will be remarkably smooth!"

Hearing this, Li Fan shrugged.

Well, since he was already here, he might as well continue trusting Ming Yan.

He had the space bodhi seed, an escape route available at any time.

Immediately after.

Li Fan headed to the nearby large-scale teleportation array.

"What? Sir, are you sure you want to go there? That's within the range of the Abode of Cessation. The danger is extraordinary!"

The staff member operating the teleportation array couldn't help but let out a strange exclamation upon hearing the coordinates Li Fan provided, his face showing astonishment and fear.

Abode of Cessation.

This was precisely the cosmic forbidden land Li Fan was heading to.

"Mm, right there. Don't worry, I'm just transiting through that area. I won't run into trouble. I've taken this route many times," Li Fan replied with a smile.

Hearing this, the staff member's expression eased.

"I see, that explains it. In that case, I'll proceed with your teleportation service now."

"What's the situation with the Abode of Cessation recently?" Li Fan inquired casually at this point.

"Same as always! A place that devours people without spitting out the bones!

You have no idea. Recently, quite a few people have been trying their luck at the Abode of Cessation, hoping to gamble for so-called opportunities. What opportunities could that place possibly have? Besides immense terror, there's simply nothing there. Not a single person has returned. Who knows who spread the rumor about there being opportunities..."

The staff member chatted with Li Fan about matters concerning the Abode of Cessation while processing his service.

From his earlier reaction and these words, it was apparent.

Most people in the Tian Beast Star Domain held a sense of awe and reverence towards the Abode of Cessation.

The staff responsible for the teleportation arrays were even more so.

If Li Fan had said earlier that he intended to venture into the Abode of Cessation, he likely would have faced dissuasion from this staff member.

In short, the danger of this forbidden land was probably even more terrifying than Li Fan had imagined.

He could only pray now that Ming Yan's plan would proceed smoothly.

Soon.

As the teleportation array activated.

In the blink of an eye, Li Fan appeared at a teleportation station less than ten light-years from the Abode of Cessation.

It was evident that the station was actually quite crowded.

Moreover, judging by their appearances and the glances they occasionally cast towards the direction of the Abode of Cessation, they were all desperadoes, their target, like Li Fan's, being the Abode of Cessation.

Li Fan paid no attention to these people.

After leaving the teleportation station, he piloted his spacecraft, speeding towards the direction of the Abode of Cessation.

Simultaneously.

Ming Yan also began instructing Li Fan on modifying that batch of cultivation simulation talismans.

Approximately a full hour passed.

All the cultivation simulation talismans had been successfully modified.

"Now, as long as you activate these simulation talismans, they will bind you to the surrounding void, making your entire being appear chaotic. For a short period, anyone will find it difficult to discern your true cultivation level," Ming Yan said with a smile, a satisfied expression on his face.

Clearly, Li Fan's previous operations were flawless, achieving the ideal effect Ming Yan had envisioned.

Hearing Ming Yan's words, Li Fan couldn't help but feel surprised.

Earlier, he had operated entirely according to Ming Yan's instructions, completely unaware of what effect his actions would achieve.

Now, hearing this, it seemed somewhat overwhelmingly powerful.

No one can see through it for a short time?

"Not even a Universe King Lord can see through it?" Li Fan couldn't help but ask directly.

And Ming Yan's reply was very straightforward,

"Correct!"

"Your current strength is far too weak, so the chaotic void can very easily conceal your own fundamental aura.

If you had reached Universe Level, there would still be some risk. But at your current level, it's completely fine."

As these words were spoken.

Li Fan couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

Strength too weak?

But listening to Ming Yan's explanation, it did sound quite plausible.

Li Fan couldn't help but nod.

"Alright, now quickly start practicing the key phrases. This is the most crucial part, the key to this entire plan!"

At this point, Ming Yan shifted the topic, guiding it towards the next step of the process.
