My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 818 - 781: Information Immortal Theory

Chapter 818: Chapter 781: Information Immortal Theory

Xu Bai looked deeply into the other’s eyes.

Chen Tianhai’s words carried great significance.

It seemed he had guessed the origin of Xu Bai’s avatar?

Yet he did not expose it, putting on a secretive air that left Fang Zaiji somewhat baffled.

The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.

“However, what you said earlier was correct. Our Taiyan Sect, indeed, is very interested in scenarios beyond the [Immortal Ruins].”

“Or rather, any records from outside the Xuanhuang World are very important to us.”

...

“What do you want to exchange?”

Chen Tianhai changed the subject and spoke directly.

That took Xu Bai a bit by surprise.

“I want a Huadao Stone, the higher the quality, the better.” He promptly put forth his demand without hesitation.

“Huadao Stone…” Chen Tianhai pondered for a moment and ultimately shook his head slightly.

“Individual Huadao Stones are no longer available within our Taiyan Sect. Perhaps you could try your luck in the Xuanhuang Mainland.”

“Make another request.”

Fang Zaiji, hearing this, became slightly disgruntled, “Old Chen, are you trying to take advantage of our young Sect Master? The one who led us in just now kept saying that if we joined your Taiyan Sect, we would be given a medium-grade Huadao Stone for free.”

“How come you don’t have any?”

Chen Tianhai glanced at Fang Zaiji and smiled, “Brother Fang, there’s no need for further probing.”

“Just as you suspected…”

“Nowadays, we all exist by relying on the [Transmutation Stone Mother].”

Even though Fang Zaiji had vaguely guessed it already, when Chen Tianhai personally admitted it, Fang Zaiji’s body still shook slightly.

“You…”

In an instant, Chen Tianhai’s body turned blue and transparent again.

“In order to enhance the power of the Transmutation Stone Mother to the greatest extent, we gathered all the Huadao Stones we could find at that time. Since then, we haven’t engaged in any separation. So, we truly are unable to fulfill your request,” he said, looking at Xu Bai.

“Existing by relying on the Transmutation Stone Mother.” Xu Bai was not greatly disappointed.

He was just quietly looking at Chen Tianhai’s body.

After the initial shock, Fang Zaiji boldly stepped forward and touched Chen Tianhai.

Indeed, it was as if he was touching a beam of light forming a void.

His palm passed right through.

“A dignified cultivator actually tolerates existing in this form?” He obviously found it hard to accept at the moment.

“It’s actually not much different. In fact, it comes with more conveniences. Would you like to give it a try?” Chen Tianhai asked nonchalantly.

Fang Zaiji, frightened, quickly withdrew his hand.

“What is the current state of your entire Taiyan Sect? According to what you’re saying, the whole sect has become a virtual existence. Then what about that Unity-Path who went to the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals for negotiation and submission? What’s his situation?” Fang Zaiji asked, puzzled.

“Between reality and illusion, we can change freely. In most circumstances, we exist in a state of illusion. If necessary, we can also manifest as real bodies, indistinguishable from genuine cultivators,” Chen Tianhai revealed.

“However, doing so consumes a lot of resources and computational power from the Transmutation Stone Mother. We don’t do it unless it’s necessary.”

“Usually, we only maintain the [real] forms of a dozen disciples or so.”

Fang Zaiji could not help but click his tongue in astonishment, “You can do that?”

“Is this the solution you came up with for the Great Calamity back then?” Xu Bai asked with some curiosity.

“Isn’t that a bit too heavy a price? Bound to a stone for all eternity. Moreover, once it shatters, there’s the risk of a collective downfall,” Xu Bai asked quite bluntly.

“The Great Calamity?” A sinister smile reemerged on Chen Tianhai’s face.

“To safely survive the tribulation of ‘Incompatible Cultivation,’ our Taiyan Sect has dozens of methods,” he said.

“But that’s not what we aspire to.”

The transparent blue figure stood with hands clasped behind his back, suddenly emitting a sense of boldness in his tone.

“What we in the Taiyan Sect desire is true ‘Transcendence,'” he proclaimed.

“Even in the face of the falling Immortal Ruins and the destruction of the Xuanhuang World—real apocalyptic tribulations—we could remain utterly untroubled and transcend,” he declared.

This statement sent Xu Bai and Fang Zaiji’s hearts and minds trembling intensely.

Fang Zaiji couldn’t help but retort, “With your Transmutation Stone Mother? You may not fully grasp the terror of the Immortal Ruins…”

Chen Tianhai waved his hand dismissively, cutting off Fang Zaiji’s words without mercy.

“I know, the suction force of the Ruins of Immortality is strong enough to distort time and space,” he acknowledged.

“But that’s all it does.”

“It hasn’t reached the point where it can destroy time-space,” he added.

Chen Tianhai tapped his right foot on the ground, and a ring of blue light spread outward from beneath his feet.

Moments later, the walls once again became transparent.

The building they were in, and the entirety of the Suspended City, instantly became blue and transparent, just like Chen Tianhai.

Looking closely, the blue seemed to contain countless scenes that flickered incessantly.

As if it were the birth and death of numerous worlds.

“This Suspended City is the Transmutation Stone Mother?” Fang Zaiji finally saw clearly where he was and, astonished, inquired.

Chen Tianhai didn’t reply.

Instead, he spoke to himself, “As long as time-space is not destroyed, information can live forever. We of the Taiyan Sect can then exist indefinitely.”

“Transmutation Stone Mother? There’s no longer such a thing as the Transmutation Stone Mother in the world,” he explained.

“In that instant back then, we merged into one.”

Fang Zaiji opened his mouth but was unable to utter a word for a long while, clearly once again shocked by the madness of the Taiyan Sect’s actions.

“Time-space undestroyed, information immortal. Truly a rare and brilliant idea. And your Taiyan Sect has actually made it a reality—how spectacular,” Xu Bai couldn’t help clapping.

“While ordinary methods may not completely destroy you, there happens to be your natural nemesis within the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals,” he observed.

“The Tianxuan Mirror.”

“With the Tianxuan Mirror’s capabilities, it might not be easy to erase you completely, but trapping you within it forever should still be possible,” he mused.

Thoughtfully, Xu Bai said, “No wonder you surrendered so swiftly.”

“Striving for survival isn’t something to be ashamed of. Moreover, in a real fight, It may not fare well either. Its primary task right now is to achieve its own ascension. Naturally, it wouldn’t make a move on us. And since we have no conflicting interests, It readily accepted our surrender,” Chen Tianhai didn’t deny, expressing carelessly.

“Well said. But I have a question,” Xu Bai was staring intently at Chen Tianhai at this point.

“How did your Taiyan Sect come to know that the [Immortal Ruins] couldn’t destroy time-space?”

“What if I say, the [Immortal Ruins]’ suction force has been growing stronger over the years?”

“Not being able to now doesn’t mean it won’t be able to in the future,” Xu Bai said, his tone somber.
