My Longevity Simulation-Chapter 1176: Intent to Traverse the Deep Space

After the stone puppets drifted away from the Xuanhuang Realm and headed toward the depths of the starry sky, they lost contact with Li Fan.

However, the shock caused by the facts they had observed was far from over for him.

“How could it come from the depths of the Darkest Star Sea?”

“Could it be that another Hungry Immortal still exists there?!”

Li Fan was filled with shock and horror.

Even his main body inside the Derivation Law Jade Space had to actively circulate the Xuanhuang Immortal Heart Mantra to suppress his astonishment and prevent any abnormality from showing.

For Li Fan, such a thing had not happened for a very long time.

The tremors in the Xuanhuang Realm continued.

Yet as time passed, it was becoming clear that the intensity of the shaking was slowly decreasing.

This inexplicable disaster was gradually coming to an end.

But the storm of thoughts in Li Fan’s mind had only just begun.

“The pull of the Immortal Ruins was generated when that skeletal immortal comprehended the True Immortal Seal Script character known as ‘Hunger.’ Sitting in meditation and comprehending the Dao in a state of self-forgetfulness caused devastating effects across this star domain.”

“However, the True Immortal Seal Script is not something only one person can comprehend. The anomaly in the Yuandao Prefecture of the Xuanhuang Realm is suspected to have resulted from the Heavenly Capital Grand Mage attempting to comprehend the secrets of the [Hunger] character.”

“Looking at the current Xuanhuang disturbance, there are two possible explanations. The first is that the disaster was not caused by anything related to the Hunger character, but rather by an existence of similar level. Only True Immortal level power could produce such a violent effect on the Xuanhuang Realm.”

“But that would mean an unknown existence possessing True Immortal power is still hiding within the Darkest Star Sea. This…”

Li Fan felt a chill in his heart.

“The second possibility is that some survivor in the Star Sea, or possibly even the Immortal Ancestor himself, is also comprehending the Hunger character. A recent breakthrough caused this disturbance. Since the Immortal Ancestor was able to send a message back in advance, this possibility is quite likely.”

“However, neither guess can explain the most critical point: why did such a change occur in this lifetime?”

The Dao Deviation Stone flashed with light, continuously replaying the events of this life.

Yet it remained impossible to determine exactly what had caused such a massive deviation.

“Whether it is a True Immortal or an existence capable of comprehending the [Hunger] character, my actions in this life should not yet be qualified to influence them.”

“And yet all of this has happened.”

Li Fan remained silent.

This was the result of reaching a certain level of strength. Every casual action could unintentionally affect the outside world and even alter the fate of others. One variable gave birth to another endlessly, ultimately leading to unexpected changes.

“The main body has remained inside the Derivation Jade Space the entire time, so it can be ruled out as the cause. The clone Li Ping has only been active in the Great Qi small world. Even moving the Five Elements Great Cave-Heaven would not be enough to create such a large variable. The issue must have come from the Holy Embryo’s travels.”

After careful analysis, Li Fan ultimately traced the source of the variable to the mysterious figure at the bottom of the Chizha Abyss and the formless existence within the Rebirth Labyrinth Zone.

“These two beings, one collecting world fragments and the other collecting the corpses of cultivators, spend most of their time active in the Darkest Star Sea.”

“Due to the interference of the Holy Embryo, their activity trajectories changed compared to previous cycles. This is what triggered the Xuanhuang tremors…”

“What exactly still exists within the Darkest Star Sea?”

At this moment, a trace of curiosity rose once again in Li Fan’s heart.

Previously, he had believed that within the Darkest Star Sea, only the Xuanhuang Realm still survived. Outside the Xuanhuang Realm lay only drifting world fragments and complete dead silence.

Now it appeared that unknown secrets were still hidden there.

“Indeed. All along, I have harbored one doubt: in what form do the remnants of the immortal cultivation worlds in the Darkest Star Sea exist? Under the pull of the Immortal Ruins, even complete immortal worlds inevitably fall toward the Immortal Ruins. These fragments should have been unable to resist and should have been devoured by the Immortal Ruins long ago.”

“However, judging from how the Xuanhuang Realm has been constantly patched together, as well as the scenes Han Zhong witnessed inside the Heavenly Beast’s Eye, there are still massive numbers of world fragments existing in the Darkest Star Sea. In a manner that remains unknown to me…”

Feeling the intermittent tremors still shaking the Xuanhuang Realm, a flash of inspiration suddenly struck Li Fan.

“That’s right! Previously, because of the pull from the Immortal Ruins, I could never leave the Xuanhuang Realm to investigate the Darkest Star Sea. But now, influenced by this mysterious attractive force coming from the depths of the Darkest Star Sea, perhaps…”

“There is no time to waste. The tremors are about to disappear, and I don’t have much time left.”

Inside Broken Palm Immortal City.

During the period of the Xuanhuang Realm’s tremors, even the Chizha Abyss had become much quieter, emitting no strange noises at all.

The Qingxuan Army soldiers, who had guarded the abyss for a hundred years and could withstand the terrifying tides of demonic sounds, now turned pale and trembled violently upon witnessing this true heavenly terror.

If not for the fact that Holy Embryo Li Fan had previously taught them the Xuanhuang Immortal Heart Mantra, many of them would likely have had their long-suppressed negative emotions erupt all at once, causing them to lose their minds and go completely insane on the spot.

Not to mention ordinary soldiers. Even the leader of the Qingxuan Army, Dao Integration Shang Shaojun, who had been informed in advance that the Xuanhuang tremors would occur, still appeared somewhat dazed before such a world-shaking catastrophe.

“I never imagined that the vast Xuanhuang Realm would be like a small boat on a river in a violent storm, at risk of capsizing at any moment.” Shang Shaojun spoke with a bitter tone.

Holy Embryo Li Fan, however, had no time to comfort him.

“Shaojun, help me with something right away.”

“What?” Shang Shaojun was momentarily stunned and asked in confusion.

“Help me prepare these items as quickly as possible.” After transmitting the list of supplies to Shang Shaojun with a point of his finger, Holy Embryo Li Fan spoke with a serious expression and raised his head to gaze at the sky of the Xuanhuang Realm.

“Gathering these supplies is not a problem. Most of them can be found in the Eternal Immortal Fortresses. But Brother Li, what exactly do you need these things for?” Shang Shaojun followed Holy Embryo Li Fan’s gaze.

“Such vast and mighty power makes the entire world seem as fragile as a toy before it. Are you not curious, Shaojun?”

Holy Embryo Li Fan’s eyes were resolute, even showing a trace of madness.

“I intend to fly out of the Xuanhuang Realm, trace the source, and investigate thoroughly!” he declared firmly.

“Absolutely not! Outside the Xuanhuang Realm lies…” Shang Shaojun’s expression changed drastically as he hurriedly tried to dissuade him. He stopped halfway through his sentence.

“Hahaha, were you about to say the words ‘Immortal Ruins,’ Shaojun?”

Shang Shaojun was now completely shocked and looked at Holy Embryo Li Fan with disbelief.

Holy Embryo Li Fan did not explain how he knew this top secret. Instead, he waved his hand and said with a grave expression: “It is precisely because the Immortal Ruins exist that the present moment is a once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity!”

“Brother Li, exactly what…” Shang Shaojun asked, filled with shock and suspicion.

“Could it be that you think the main culprit behind this catastrophe is the Immortal Ruins?” Li Fan countered.
