My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 1615 - 1362_2
"Hmm?" Li Fan raised his eyebrows.
"I know it sounds convoluted, even a bit implausible. But the truth is exactly that."
"It’s a realization that doesn’t exist in the Abyss Star Ocean. Only by relying on the High Wall as a medium can we become aware and perceive it."
"And once away from the High Wall, even though I’ve ’memorized’ and ’comprehended’, I ultimately can’t manifest this nonexistent thing..." Mo Rubing’s expression was somewhat vacant as he enunciated each word with difficulty, explaining everything he had encountered to Li Fan.
Li Fan was somewhat able to understand Mo Rubing’s explanation.
Just as if Li Fan tried to explain the [Truth and Deception Transformation] to Mo Rubing, without [Huanzhen], Mo Rubing would not be able to touch or comprehend the slightest bit.
He would only take Li Fan for a nonsensical fraud.
Because for Mo Rubing, the so-called [Truth and Deception Transformation] simply does not exist.
"Touching the High Wall allows me to recall this inspiration. But once away from the High Wall, all the inspiration is lost..."
"Isn’t that just like the moon reflected in the mirror, the flower in the water, utterly useless. It’s even worse, at least the Flower Moon can still be seen," Li Fan expressed with a tone of great disappointment.
Mo Rubing pondered for a moment and then shook his head slightly: "That’s not necessarily true. Even though I cannot engrave that insight, these two experiences of enlightenment have allowed me to transform the existing form of the High Wall into parts I can understand."
As he spoke, Mo Rubing lightly tapped with his index finger, drawing a circle in the air in front of Li Fan.
Enveloping Li Fan within it.
In Li Fan’s field of vision, Mo Rubing suddenly disappeared.
Even the entire Abyss Star Ocean vanished from his scope of observation.
His Divine Sense and the previous Golden Needle sensations also failed completely!
It was as if a High Wall had been erected around him in all directions, encircling him and shielding his vision and senses.
"Interesting."
"A miniature High Wall."
But the wall of Mo Rubing was clearly not comparable to the one surrounding the Abyss Star Ocean.
Not even the [Nine Heavens Descending Dust Finger] was used.
Just by slightly ascending and stepping up, Li Fan easily stepped over this obstacle with a casual foot.
Mo Rubing was still in place and was not surprised that Li Fan escaped so quickly.
"It seems my comprehension is still not sufficient."
"If you gave me more time, I’m afraid it wouldn’t be so easy for you to escape," Mo Rubing said slowly.
Li Fan frowned and said: "Brother Mo, your Divine Technique compared to that Invisible Wall seems to be missing some critical elements..."
"With that gap, the power of the Divine Technique is greatly reduced. If this aspect could be deciphered, you might truly be able to [create a prison with a stroke of the pen]!"
Upon hearing this, a trace of unwillingness and yearning flashed in Mo Rubing’s eyes.
It was almost impossible for Mo Rubing, who cultivated the [Indestructible Demon Heart Immortal Technique], to be so easily stirred. The fact that it happened now could only mean the secret flaw of the High Wall completely shook his mental foundation.
"I have Huanzhen, so I don’t need to worry about its once-lost-forever-gone quality. It’s just that so far, I haven’t been able to discern anything from it. Is the gap in comprehension that large? It seems I need to return again for a while and continue to rely on the beings of the Small World to help me with my enlightenment. Although the time left in this world might not be much," Li Fan pondered privately.
Then, Li Fan began to inquire about Mo Rubing’s plans for the future.
"Are you going back to the remaining areas of the Floating Star Crossing Formation to search for traces of the King of Mystic Sky?"
"During the time you were enlightening on the High Wall, I’ve already searched the Xuanhuang World again. Unlike the Eye of the Heavenly Beast and Gathering Spirit for Immortality, the other parts of the Floating Star Crossing Formation might have been severely damaged and probably do not hold the conditions for the King of Mystic Sky to hide..." Li Fan said slowly.
Mo Rubing looked towards the Xuanhuang World not far away.
Resurfacing the topic of the King of Mystic Sky, the wavering expression on his face gradually faded, turning back into the inscrutable one of the Twelve Law Kings of the Mystic Sky Sect.
Perhaps it was Li Fan’s previous selfless blocking that once again increased trust.
Mo Rubing hesitated for a while and then slowly spoke: "I would like to go to one last place."
"But after ten thousand years, with heaven and earth overturned in the Xuanhuang World, it is somewhat difficult to distinguish at the moment..."
"That’s easy to say."
In an instant, a comparison chart of the Xuanhuang World’s ancient and current changes appeared in front of Mo Rubing.
"Here."
Mo Rubing scrutinized for a while and eventually determined a location.
The expression on Li Fan’s face became subtly complex.
"What’s the matter?" Mo Rubing naturally noticed the change in Li Fan’s expression.
Li Fan shook his head slightly: "You will know once you go there."
Between the flickering shadows of the Wood Sword, Li Fan brought Mo Rubing to their destination.
It was none other than the small hill where the Fishing Pond was located, along with the Taoist Temple!
In this life, Li Fan had not activated the Fishing Pond.
He had forcibly relocated Zhong Shentong, Daoist Child Liuli, and others from within the temple.
"This place was once the hometown of Xuanyuan Big Brother."
"It was also the location of his last Ascension."
"To think that now it has become so desolate."
Mo Rubing slowly entered the Taoist Temple, observing carefully while lamenting.
"It’s actually the last Ascension site in the Xuanhuang World?" Li Fan was slightly surprised.
"Yes. Back in the days, Xuanyuan Big Brother was extraordinarily nostalgic about this place. Whenever we couldn’t find him, we would always end up meeting him here. I don’t know what’s so wondrous about this place or what experiences he had here," Mo Rubing wandered slowly, seemingly searching for the aura of the King of Mystic Sky.
He kept walking until he reached the temple’s backyard.
Upon seeing the seemingly common small pond, Mo Rubing’s pupils suddenly contracted.
Then, he rapidly stepped forward.
"This..."
"After tens of thousands of years, this place has not changed at all?!" Mo Rubing was shaken inwardly, but he was keenly aware of the extraordinariness of this place.
"Your expression was odd just now, you meant here?"
Mo Rubing turned his head sharply and asked.
Li Fan nodded slightly: "This tiny pond, I can’t destroy it. From this, I realized the peculiarity of this place."
"However, despite searching many times, I still could not find anything strange about this place..."
Upon hearing this, Mo Rubing looked towards the Fishing Pond again.
"The surrounding mountains and rivers have all undergone drastic changes, yet only this pool of water remains as it was. There must be something hidden..."
"Strange, but Xuanyuan Big Brother never mentioned that there would be any secrets here."
Having grasped the only clue, Mo Rubing was not willing to let go.
He tried all sorts of methods, even diving into the water himself.
But in the end, he found nothing.
It seemed as if this place was really just a simple, utterly ordinary small pond.
Secrets lie right before one’s eyes, yet remain unrecognized.
Mo Rubing’s face inevitably began to grow gloomy.
"This is the hometown of the King of Mystic Sky? What kind of person was the King of Mystic Sky before his Ascension?" Li Fan asked at the opportunity.
"Xuanyuan Big Brother’s early life was really quite ordinary. So ordinary that when he once passed by in front of me, I didn’t even lower my head to look at him."
"After all, I was the direct disciple of the Nine Refining Observation, while he was just a small Energy Refining Cultivator."
"However, no one knew that hidden beneath Xuanyuan Big Brother’s inconspicuous appearance was his peerless talent; rising abruptly, relying on no sect resources but solely on himself, he became the first person to ascend in the Xuanhuang World at the time and also the last..."
Mo Rubing’s expression was filled with endless reminiscence.
As for Li Fan, he fell into deep contemplation upon hearing these words.
Li Fan certainly knew of the existence of the Fishing Pond.
But when exactly the Fishing Pond came into existence in the Xuanhuang World remains unknown.
After all, the Fishing Pond is vaguely the creation of Nameless True Immortals, completely transcending above the Xuanhuang World.
Even the Stone Tablets that record the history of the Xuanhuang World contain no information about the Fishing Pond.
