My Longevity Simulation

Chapter 1008: The Secret of the Lingyuan Technique

My Longevity Simulation

"All beings have form..."

Countless real and concrete individuals came flooding into Li Fan's mind.

Like sparks gradually melting the icy heart, frozen for ten thousand years through repeated reincarnations.

It must be known that Li Fan was not entirely devoid of emotion or humanity.

It was merely that, in endless cycles of reincarnation, the joys and sorrows, fears and laughter, births and deaths he witnessed all seemed like illusory dreams and bubbles.

Once Li Fan activated his [Truth], everything they experienced became meaningless in an instant, reverting to the original anchor point.

Since it was all mere illusion, how could he treat it with gravity? Thus, over time, Li Fan became the figure who now regarded all living beings in the world with indifference.

But at this moment, through the Tianxuan Mirror, Li Fan saw that even without his attention, the myriad beings of the Xuanhuang Realm continued living along their own destined paths.

They had their own friends, schemes, and paths of the Dao.

Their very existence was not illusory or meaningless.

The more Li Fan observed, the greater the influence from the feedback of the beings. Likewise, the desire in his heart to witness more destinies grew ever stronger.

Gradually, even Li Fan's profoundly indifferent eyes seemed on the verge of change in this process.

...

It was at this very moment.

Li Fan suddenly felt a pang in his heart and awoke from his entranced epiphany.

His gaze hardened once more into unmelting ice, blocking external corrosion.

When Li Fan looked again at the countless vivid cultivators in the Tianxuan Mirror, a trace of wariness had already arisen in his heart.

Reflecting on what had just occurred, Li Fan knew he had not fallen victim to any scheme.

It was simply that, immersed in the utterly real lives of one cultivator after another, he had become somewhat lost.

"No wonder those legendary gods and immortals often perch high on clouds, viewing entanglement in the mortal dust as a tribulation."

"With my current state of mind, I nearly drowned in it, changing unwittingly..."

Li Fan suddenly recalled the first scene in the Fallen Immortal Realm, during Ning Yuan's harvesting of the longevity fruit, when Song Hesong had blood-sacrificed over ten thousand mortals to unleash the [All Beings Refining Gods Formation], forcing out the true power of Zhang Qianmo's Purple Core.

"Though, viewed with today's eyes, that formation was truly crude and bore only an empty name. Yet from my recent experience, it may still offer some lessons worth borrowing..."

"I refine the myriad gods with the myriad beings."

Under Li Fan's guidance, the Final Dissociation Disc, which had been studying the [All Spirits Return to Numbers] relentlessly and advancing its formation derivation skills by leaps and bounds, began its first derivation since its horizons had broadened.

But soon, Li Fan detected something amiss.

Unlike past derivations of formations, which proceeded as smoothly as directing one's own limbs and completed targets in an instant.

This time, the Final Dissociation Disc's derivation task stuttered involuntarily every short interval.

As if it had reached some limit in load capacity, operating with great strain.

After observing for a while, Li Fan understood the reason for this phenomenon.

"It stems from a mismatch between the Final Dissociation Disc own capabilities and the plan."

"It is no longer suited for deriving ordinary formations. The plan calls for deriving immortal-level formation, or existences infinitely approaching the might of immortal-level formation."

"But after all, it is merely a secondary body derived from the Tianxuan Mirror. Accomplishing such a feat is truly beyond its strength."

Li Fan sighed inwardly and temporarily halted the task.

He instructed the Dissociation Disc to resume its analysis of the All Spirits Return to Numbers Great Formation for the time being.

"It seems that to break the prohibition left by the Immortal Ancestor, I must first upgrade the Dissociation Disc."

"I wonder how things are progressing on Mo Rubin's end."

Li Fan hesitated, debating whether to inquire directly.

At this moment, he suddenly sensed an event unfolding with his clone Li Qing, and his expression shifted slightly.

With a flicker, he arrived at his side.

A thick scent of blood lingered in the air, with faint traces of exploded flesh still visible.

His body had vanished, and Li Qing had manifested his [Black Sword] Cave-Heaven, seemingly clashing against some force.

As if crushed repeatedly by some invisible colossal entity, booming strains of overburden echoed from various parts of the Cave-Heaven.

If not for the quality of the [Heavenly Wonder], formed from the concrete manifestation of the laws between heaven and earth, this Cave-Heaven would likely shatter inch by inch at this moment!

"What happened?"

Li Fan instantly reviewed the experiences of his clone.

It turned out that, over this period, with the widespread adoption of countless [Heaven and Earth Furnaces], the spiritual energy in those small worlds had gradually become denser, starting to suit cultivation.

Meanwhile, Li Qing had begun organizing large-scale teachings of the [Vital Essence Technique of All Living Beings] in these small worlds.

He even occasionally raided several mortal cities in the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance's territory in the Xuanhuang Realm to supplement the sparse population in the small worlds.

Now, the number of beings simultaneously cultivating the Vital Essence Technique of All Living Beings had long surpassed a million.

The characteristic of this technique, where more cultivators lead to faster progress, had been pushed to its limit.

Not only did it suppress the restrictions of incompatible cultivation techniques, but it was also easier and quicker to cultivate than ordinary techniques.

Not long ago, Li Qing, who was overseeing and coordinating everything, suddenly had a whimsical idea.

He decided to personally cultivate it himself, aiming to unravel the mysteries of the [Vital Essence Technique of All Living Beings].

It was not out of sheer boredom or lack of tasks, but preparation for future reincarnations across the ages. After all, this Vital Essence Technique of All Living Beings truly had an owner. It was merely a twist of fate in this world that led to its destruction by the Immortal Ancestor's Dharma Manifestation.

With the Lingyuan Sect's influence spanning Nine Mountains Prefecture, eradicating them would inevitably cause a stir.

If he could develop his own version of the "Vital Essence Technique of All Living Beings," that would be ideal.

The initial cultivation and comprehension went smoothly.

The clone Li Qing's aptitude and insight far exceeded that of ordinary people. Without much effort, he cultivated the Vital Essence Technique of All Living Beings to the Nascent Soul stage.

At the same time, Li Qing suddenly sensed over a million streams of cultivation base, like a torrential river, surging from all corners of heaven and earth.

They poured fiercely into his body.

Clearly accumulated over a long time, each portion of cultivation was exceptionally abundant.

The million-fold accumulation converged in an instant within Li Qing's body.

The clone's frame could not withstand such pressure and exploded with a boom.

Even his Black Sword Cave-Heaven nearly buckled under the strain.

"This is the qualitative change brought by quantitative accumulation. Speaking of which, this cultivation base comes from..."

"Every person cultivating the Vital Essence Technique of All Living Beings?"

Li Fan's eyes gleamed at once.

"Is this not just like the Energy Absorption Chapter of the [Supreme Primordial True Scripture]? Both siphon a small portion from others."

"But the beneficiary of this Vital Essence Technique of All Living Beings is only the highest-realm cultivator among those practicing it?"

"Does the Lingyuan Sect Master have such confidence in himself?"

"Or is there some special aspect I have overlooked?"

Li Fan's brows furrowed slightly.
