With the help of [Truth], one could undergo infinite cycles of reincarnation.
Apart from the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, Li Fan would definitely have the opportunity to visit other organizations such as the Five Elders Association in the future.
He believed that they should also have a method similar to the Inquiry Platform.
To prevent exposure and being directly killed as a spy, it was necessary to find a technique that could conceal his intentions.
Moreover, a method to hide the secrets in his heart was particularly important for Li Fan, who possessed [Truth].
"You better be a spy, fellow Daoist Zhou."
Recalling the scene when he first met Zhou Qingang, Li Fan secretly said in his heart.
Subsequently, he separately messaged several people he knew, such as He Zhenghao, Gao Yuan, and Chen Ying, inquiring about Zhou Qingang.
After most of the day passed, he gradually received replies.
Excluding those who didn't know much about Zhou Qingang, the other responses were quite consistent.
Originally, Zhou Qingang was a wandering cultivator.
Over seventy years ago, in the later stages of Qi Condensation, he joined the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
After advancing to the Foundation Establishment stage, he successfully passed the assessment held once every ten years and became the guardian of Taian Island.
Zhou Qingang was diligent and responsible in his daily work.
Most of the time, he stayed on the island, rarely venturing outside.
...
With this information, Li Fan became even more convinced of his judgment.
Next, he had to find a way to expose Zhou Qingang's true colors.
Having infiltrated the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance for so many years without being discovered by others, this person must be extremely cautious in his actions.
For others, finding his flaws might be difficult.
But for Li Fan, who harbored the Formless Killing Intent, as long as this person was indeed a spy, it was only a matter of time before he revealed himself under the all-encompassing, 24/7 surveillance throughout the year.
Wearing a friendly smile, Li Fan left the Tianxuan Mirror and arrived at Taian Island through the teleportation array.
Having served as the acting guardian for several years, Li Fan was quite familiar with the island.
Above the city where the strange human-faced fruit lived, Li Fan met Zhou Qingang and explained his intentions.
"Your timing is unfortunate, fellow Daoist. All the remaining Taian Fruits have been sold, and there are none left." Zhou Qingang shook his head, expressing regret.
"Oh, my luck is really bad. I recently heard that there is such a cheap and life-prolonging treasure, but I couldn't find it in the Tianxuan Mirror. I wanted to see if fellow Daoist had any in stock." Li Fan sighed, looking regretful.
While speaking, he directly activated the Formless Killing Intent, locking onto Zhou Qingang.
The Formless Killing Intent was already incredibly subtle, and Li Fan's cultivation level was even greater than Zhou Qingang's by a small realm.
Naturally, Zhou Qingang had no awareness of it and enthusiastically suggested, "Fellow Daoist, don't worry. If you really need it, I will save one for you next time Taian Fruit is harvested."
Li Fan was delighted, "Thank you, fellow Daoist!"
He took out the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance communication talisman and added Zhou Qingang as a friend.
"I am currently serving as a member of the Formation Hall and am responsible for repairing formations. In the future, we can stay in contact!" Li Fan said.
"I don't know if fellow Daoist is acquainted with He Zhenghao, the guardian of Liuli Island? My relationship with fellow Daoist He is also quite deep."
Zhou Qingang's eyes lit up, and he promptly accepted the friend request.
"Hehe, my relationship with fellow Daoist He is also decent. It turns out we all know each other!"
Li Fan continued to follow Zhou Qingang's lead and chatted for a while.
Afterward, he returned to Ten Thousand Immortals Island.
Inside the Tianxuan Mirror, Li Fan directly transferred a hundred contribution points to Zhou Qingang.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, I've transferred the contribution points to you first. Remember to save the Taian Fruit for me."
Soon, Zhou Qingang replied, "Fellow Daoist, rest assured. Even if I can't complete the annual tribute mission, I will save one for you!"
"Fellow Daoist Zhou is truly earnest!"
While praising Zhou Qingang, Li Fan used the Vision of Heaven and Earth to observe his every move.
His expression remained normal.
Li Fan didn't expect to quickly expose Zhou Qingang.
However, the Formless Killing Intent was always watching, and there would come a day when Zhou Qingang would reveal himself.
For now, this matter was temporarily put aside.
After transferring the 15,000 contribution points to He Zhenghao, Li Fan began the formal process of selecting merit tasks.
He planned to first elevate his permission level and then see if he could find techniques related to the mind.
This was quite important to him.
During the twelfth life, he encountered the problem of "not enough brainpower."
As the lending operations of the Mingyue Palace gradually expanded, Li Fan had to maintain control of both his main body and clone while constantly monitoring nearly a hundred borrowers.
Although most of them only required a trace of his consciousness, when combined, the brainpower required began to affect his main body unavoidably.
It specifically manifested as occasional brief pauses in thinking and a decrease in his normal thinking speed.
In simple terms, Li Fan sometimes felt that his brain was "lagging."
To solve this problem, there were two methods.
One was to increase the strength of his consciousness.
The second was to enhance the multitasking ability of his consciousness, splitting his mind into different tasks.
Compared to ordinary cultivators, Li Fan's spiritual consciousness strength was already quite strong, equivalent to the late stage of Golden Core, a realm higher than the average Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Now that he had found a method to enhance his spiritual consciousness strength by entering the Fallen Immortal Realm and absorbing the bodies of those possessed, he didn't need to search for other ways to increase spiritual consciousness strength.
Therefore, what Li Fan needed to do now was to improve his shortcomings.
He needed to find a way to split his mind for various tasks.
During the twelfth life, even though Li Fan possessed a considerable fortune, he couldn't find such a technique in the Tianxuan Mirror.
He could only reluctantly make do.
Since he had joined the system of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance in this life, he naturally wanted to take this opportunity to find a technique that could enhance his multitasking capabilities.
Before, Li Fan had searched a bit, but with his permission level only being One, he hadn't found a suitable technique.
However, Li Fan believed that as his permission level increased, he would eventually find a satisfactory technique.
Currently, Li Fan was at the Foundation Establishment stage, and most of the merit tasks available corresponded to third-grade merits.
Occasionally, there were one or two tasks classified as second grade with a label indicating high risk.
Li Fan's target was these high-risk tasks.
The so-called high risk varied from person to person.
For ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators within the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, tasks at the Golden Core level were clearly beyond their ability.
However, for Li Fan, who possessed various divine techniques, the risks of these tasks weren't as high.
For example, one task required him to join a squad from the Martial Hall to clear out beasts on Wanlai Island in the Cong Yun Sea.
According to the task description, these beasts fed on sound.
They reproduced rapidly in large numbers and needed to be cleared out periodically.
Although the beasts were rampant, their individual strength was relatively weak.
Their basic combat power was only equivalent to the early Foundation Establishment stage.
This task was perfect for Li Fan.
With the help of [Truth], one could undergo infinite cycles of reincarnation.
