My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 1692 - 1399: Dao Yin Takes a Break_2
Chapter 1692 -1399: Dao Yin Takes a Break_2
“The area preserved after activating [Huanzhen] is not something that will always exist. Looking at it now, its duration has been quite short.”
Li Fan now fully understood the new changes that occurred on [Huanzhen] when he ascended to Unity-Path, or rather, when he accomplished Half-Immortal status.
It is that after activating [Huanzhen], not everything in the world immediately becomes illusionary. Instead, a large area is preserved in a black-and-white static state, centered on Li Fan.
As for the size of this area, Li Fan didn’t have the chance to verify this time. But it must be exceedingly vast, at the very least encompassing the entire Xuanhuang Immortal Domain as far as Li Fan’s eyes could see.
Li Fan also speculated that the effective range and duration of the black-and-white static area were likely positively correlated with his own strength.
Since he had only just entered the Immortal realm, the effects he could maintain were naturally extremely limited.
“This black-and-white static area, let’s temporarily call it the [Dao Hidden] Zone.”
“Within the Dao Hidden Zone, everything except me seems to exist in a state of [True Yet False] overlap. And maintaining the Dao Hidden Zone also requires certain energies related to [Huanzhen].”
“When I touch or perceive the things within the Dao Hidden Zone, it’s equivalent to pulling them out of the [True Yet False] state into the same [Real] state as me.”
“As a result, maintaining the Dao Hidden Zone consumes a large amount of energy, greatly reducing its range…”
Even though there was not a single place left for him to gain footing, Li Fan still didn’t immediately leave the Dao Hidden Zone entirely.
He had already realized that staying within the Dao Hidden Zone made it thousands of times easier to comprehend [Truth and Deception Transformation] compared to the normal world. Every moment he lingered here brought him immense benefit.
“When turning the true into false, the false becomes true.”
Li Fan contemplated and tried to grasp the true essence of [Huanzhen].
At the same time, he gazed around at the boundary of the Dao Hidden Zone, nine zhang and nine away from him.
As had always happened when [Huanzhen] was activated, layers of water mist had enshrouded everything.
“True yet false. False yet true.”
Li Fan furrowed his brows, straining to unravel the most elusive and mysterious principle of the world.
Soon, the range of the Dao Hidden Zone shrank again.
Rolling water mist engulfed everything except Li Fan.
Li Fan’s consciousness slowly descended into darkness.
This time, however, Li Fan did not completely fall into sleep or lose all senses of awareness.
Half-asleep and dazed, he seemed to witness an endless light erupting from the darkness. freewebnøvel.coɱ
Amidst the blazing white light, countless things, countless people, countless objects surged forth.
When Li Fan’s consciousness fully awakened…
Anchor set: 1 year, Dissociative Mountain Peak!
Li Fan’s expression showed a hint of daze.
He stretched out his hands and examined them carefully.
From [Huanzhen] until now, everything Li Fan had experienced gave him a deeply unreal feeling.
His mind was still immersed in the comprehension of [Truth and Deception Transformation].
A full day and night passed before Li Fan completely lost all traces of new inspiration. Temporarily halting his enlightenment process.
Only then did Li Fan redirect his focus to the prompts from [Huanzhen].
[This simulation has concluded]
[You can choose one of the following options to preserve:
1. One item held during this simulation.
2. The cultivation realm achieved during this simulation.
3. The simulated memory of a closely connected individual. This memory can be inherited by that person.
4. Forego all choices and accelerate the charging progress.]
…
“I’ve already attained Half-Immortal status, and yet there hasn’t been any extra interference variable or prompt for choosing additional inheritance options.”
“It seems my accomplishment of Half-Immortal was entirely within [Huanzhen]’s expectations.”
Li Fan remarked with a trace of self-mockery.
“That being said, the newly born Xuanhuang Immortal Domain isn’t considered an extra interference variable, yet what descended outside the wall is?” Li Fan paused briefly, lost in thought.
Soon after, Li Fan shook his head and snapped out of it.
“Thinking too much is useless. I have ascended to Half-Immortal and am now invincible within the Star Sea.”
“In this life, my eyes will be set on the world beyond the High Wall.”
“Whatever mysteries lie ahead, I shall uncover them!”
After overcoming countless trials and tribulations, he had finally achieved Unity-Path and reached the Half-Immortal realm.
Though far from perfect, it was nevertheless a position standing above all mortal beings.
From [Huanzhen]’s choices, Li Fan would undoubtedly select to inherit his cultivation base.
However…
He walked slowly to the edge of the cliff at Dissociative Mountain, raised his head, and observed the fragile Da Xuan Minor World, and even the Huang Realm.
Li Fan couldn’t help but let out a sigh.
“If I were to inherit my cultivation base here, the Da Xuan Minor World would likely be torn apart instantly by the Ascension phenomena.”
“Even the stitched-together Huang Realm might fragment into pieces and fall into the Immortal Ruins due to the massive disturbance.”
“Forget it!”
“There are still places where they will be of use.”
Li Fan’s expression turned serious, as he softly chanted: “False yet true.”
In the next moment, within his visualization, the sense of his cultivation from the previous life, after ascending to and achieving Half-Immortal status, descended and augmented his current body.
Due to the prolonged period of comprehension within the Dao Hidden Zone, Li Fan’s understanding of [Truth and Deception Transformation] had reached a significantly higher level.
Unlike before, when the visualized cultivation base could only remain fleetingly for an instant, it now remarkably lasted for a full three breaths!
Amidst his chanting, Li Fan regained his peak Half-Immortal strength from the previous life.
During the first breath, Li Fan drew his Wood Sword, arriving instantly at the empty and uninhabited depths of the Star Sea.
During the second breath, Li Fan chose the option to inherit his cultivation base from [Huanzhen].
Within the Star Sea, a storm surged furiously, an awe-inspiring tempest arose!
Centered around Li Fan, descending like an Immortal, countless forces imbued with the remnants of True Immortal Seal Characters formed a terrifying storm that shook the entirety of the Star Sea.
Seemingly under a strange pull, True Immortal Remnant Forces scattered throughout the Star Sea converged one by one toward the storm’s center like hundreds of rivers flowing into the sea.
The momentum grew increasingly intense.
By the third breath, Li Fan had fully inherited the cultivation of combining Mo Sha’s Heavenly Earth Immortal Soul with Unity-Path.
In this era, since the fall of King of Mystic Sky tens of thousands of years ago…
Finally, the second Half-Immortal emerged!
“It has to be [Huanzhen].”
Feeling the surging, profound, and infinite power coursing through his body, Li Fan couldn’t help but marvel. Unlike the fleeting phantom-like cultivation visualized through his interpretation of Truth and Falsehood, this was true solidity—ephemeral illusion transformed into absolute reality.
Half-Immortal Li Fan, gazing at the growing storm of True Immortal Remnant Force sparked by his presence, slowly extended his left hand.
The raging and expanding storm halted instantly and was then incessantly absorbed into Li Fan’s palm.
In merely a few breaths, this terrifying catastrophe that could have plunged the Star Sea into despair once more was quietly obliterated.
Li Fan smirked slightly, looking at the cluster of True Immortal Remnant Forces in his hand, compressed into a bundle resembling a paper ball filled with countless diverse characters.
Even without intentionally shielding it with his strength, these ancient forces he once regarded as ferocious tigers, which required constant vigilance, could no longer harm him in the slightest.
“It’s not that these remnant forces have lost their potency.”
“It’s that the laws constructed by them fundamentally cannot affect someone who has already become an [Immortal].”
“After all, they are merely remnants of True Immortal Seal Characters.”
Li Fan was deeply satisfied with his ascended strength.
“In truth, besides lacking Immortal Spirit Energy within my body, I’m almost no different from the True Immortals of the past. At the very least, we are equals in rank.”
“Immortal Spirit Energy…”
Li Fan’s attention unconsciously turned to his bound object: the Dissociation Disc.
Under normal circumstances, items bound in the simulation space remain unaffected by changes during the cycle, whether damaged or enhanced, maintaining their original state when [Huanzhen] is activated.
Yet now…
With a single thought, Li Fan summoned the Dissociation Disc.
Within his sea of consciousness, it seemed countless stars arose, dazzling and magnificent.
[Dissociation Disc, Immortal Ranking], had actually returned to this moment accompanying Li Fan!
“Just like the leg bone of the Faceless True Immortal before.”
Li Fan glanced at the […leg bone] in [Huanzhen]’s binding space and mused thoughtfully: “Perhaps only entities at the level of True Immortals are qualified to follow me and endure the transformation between Truth and Falsehood.”
