My Longevity Simulation

Chapter 1305: The White Ring Descends into the Mortal World

“When the real is treated as false, the false also becomes real.”

“The transformations between truth and falsehood contain endless mysteries.”

Li Fan recited these words in his heart once again, overflowing with joy.

Although it lasted for only an instant, he had indeed forcibly "manifested" his Soul Transformation cultivation from his previous life out of nothing.

However, this was his first attempt at using this great divine ability.

After that instant of success, the transformed cultivation vanished in a flash like a dream bubble or illusion.

Li Fan was not discouraged in the slightest. Instead, he was still filled with delight.

Creating something from absolute nothingness, even the legendary True Immortals might not necessarily be capable of such a feat.

Yet through the insights gained from repeatedly simulating with [Truth], he had preliminarily achieved it.

As the saying goes, the beginning is always the hardest. With this first success, using this divine ability would surely become more and more familiar in the future.

“It is not just my own cultivation.”

“The things I once experienced, the items I once possessed, and even...”

“Different people, the Xuanhuang Realm, the Darkest Star Sea, and even everything beyond the High Wall. One day, all of them may be recreated by a single thought of mine.”

Li Fan stood above the sea of clouds, savoring the sensation of using the transformation between truth and falsehood, his emotions surging.

Only after a long while did he emerge from his state of enlightenment.

He looked toward the inheritance options on the [Truth] panel and first chose to inherit cultivation.

The same phenomenon occurred once more. The skies of Great Xuan rumbled endlessly.

This was the disturbance caused by Li Fan’s Soul Transformation cultivation being invisibly infused into this small world.

However, compared to the previous life when he inherited cultivation, the Great Xuan small world of this life had already undergone world evolution because of the Creation True Immortal seal script character, so it did not show signs of being unable to bear the burden. ŗÁℕo͍𐌱Ęṣ

Only dark clouds gathered, with countless strange phenomena appearing.

“Hah...”

As the familiar power of cultivation returned to his body, Li Fan let out a long breath.

Next, his gaze fixed upon the second inheritance option.

The cultivation inheritance choice had already dimmed, leaving only options 1, 3, and 4.

Without hesitation, Li Fan chose to inherit items.

All the items he had possessed in his previous life, including his clones and divine sense incarnations, instantly appeared in Li Fan’s mind.

Waiting for him to choose.

His gaze swept over them briefly. After pondering for a moment, it finally settled upon an ordinary looking white ring.

Before this white ring had been fished up, the Holy Emperor had not yet completely severed himself from Li Fan’s original body, so it was likewise considered an item Li Fan had once possessed.

After confirming his selection, light flickered in his hand, eventually condensing into a plain white ring.

It felt slightly cold to the touch. Sweeping over it with divine sense revealed no spiritual energy fluctuations whatsoever.

Perhaps because it had been manifested through [Truth], there was no need for refinement or ownership recognition. The moment Li Fan held the white ring, he naturally felt that he could use it freely.

And others could not seize it from him.

Li Fan looked at the name displayed for the white ring on the [Truth] panel.

[Descends into Mortal World].

He stroked the white ring while murmuring those three words, while internally contemplating its proper method of use.

“Go.”

Li Fan threw the white ring toward Jieli Mountain below.

With a thought, the white ring expanded with the wind, instantly enveloping the entire mountain peak.

Then it descended.

When the white ring touched the ground, the mountain it had encircled began to disintegrate inch by inch before Li Fan’s eyes, vanishing completely.

It transformed into spiritual energy, dispersing into the heavens and earth of Great Xuan.

The several thousand zhang tall Jieli Mountain simply disappeared into thin air.

The countless living creatures dwelling upon the mountain suddenly lost their footing and plummeted from the sky uncontrollably. If not for the spiritual energy released by the white ring’s decomposition of Jieli Mountain holding them aloft, the place would have become hell in an instant.

Now perhaps this area could be called the Jieli Circle instead.

The land looked as though an enormous blade had shaved away an entire section, smooth as a mirror.

Having lost their home, the creatures of Jieli Mountain fled wildly in instinctive terror.

Before long, the once vibrant Jieli Mountain had become a forbidden zone of life.

Li Fan took a deep breath and absorbed all the spiritual energy produced by the decomposition.

This amount of spiritual energy was less than a drop in the ocean for his current self. His real purpose was to analyze whether the spiritual energy produced by Descends into Mortal World differed from ordinary heaven and earth spiritual energy.

After careful examination, Li Fan reached a conclusion.

There was no difference whatsoever.

In fact, this spiritual energy gave Li Fan an extremely familiar feeling, as though it had naturally originated from the Great Xuan small world itself.

“Clearly, this is matter being decomposed and converted into energy. Yet on the [Truth] panel, its name is Descends into Mortal World.”

“Descends into Mortal World...”

“Perhaps this is actually a punitive treasure specifically meant to target immortal artifacts.”

Li Fan suddenly gained insight.

“In the previous life, the Holy Emperor clone never had the chance to test it further. In this life, perhaps I can use those quasi-immortal artifacts in the Xuanhuang Realm to verify my theory.”

Putting away the white ring, Li Fan looked downward.

In broad daylight, Jieli Mountain had vanished into thin air.

To ordinary mortals, this was undoubtedly a terrifying and unimaginable event.

Believing it to be divine punishment from heaven, the mortals beneath Jieli Mountain had already spontaneously begun organizing sacrificial rites in panic.

Not daring to approach the enormous circular area on the ground, they could only pray from outside its boundary.

As expected, Li Fan saw among them Sun Erlang and Wang Xuanba, his former disciples.

With a flick of his finger, a figure descended from the sky into the mortal world.

Its appearance bore seven tenths resemblance to Li Fan, but with long beard and white hair. In terms of attire, it somewhat resembled the Immortal Ancestor.

“Look, an immortal.”

The common people all dropped to their knees.

The figure waved a hand, and the kneeling mortals all stood back up.

The figure sat suspended in the air, murmuring words as it began preaching the Dao to the surrounding mortals.

The faint spiritual energy born from the world evolution of the Great Xuan small world was all drawn toward this preaching figure.

A visible vortex formed above the Jieli Circle.

Li Fan casually used this spiritual energy to set up a formation. Before long, a miniature formation designed to purge the miasma from mortal bodies had taken shape.

Under the combined effects of the preaching figure and the formation, In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, some of the mortals listening below had already completed the removal of their miasma.

Sun Erlang and Wang Xuanba were naturally among them.

Within the Jieli Circle, the earth rumbled, and the locations where these living beings who had completed the first step of cultivation stood began to flow like water.

After gathering them together in one place, the ground slowly rose and swelled upward.

As a result, these people moved a little closer to the Immortal Master preaching the Dao above.

The figure preached the Dao for a full seven days.

During those seven days, the positions of those present who successfully drew qi into their bodies and reached the Qi Condensation stage continued to rise upward.

They gradually formed clearly separated tiers of steps.

After seven days, the figure transformed into a streak of light and flew away. At the same time, a single thought flashed through the minds of all the cultivators present.

The Immortal Master would continue preaching the Dao one month later.

Everyone was greatly shaken.

Even the dullest among them realized that this was a heaven-sent opportunity.

Thus, news of the Immortal Master preaching the Dao spread like wildfire. At a terrifying speed, it spread throughout Great Xuan.

And within the Jieli Circle, everyone also discovered the various wondrous mysteries of this [Dao Lecture Platform].

Dao Lecture Platform was the respectful name the mortals listening to the Immortal Master’s teachings gave to the Jieli Circle. Inside it, people were divided into different tiers according to their individual cultivation levels. The higher one’s cultivation, the higher the place where one sat.

Each person’s position was fixed and could neither be exchanged nor seized.

While seated within the Dao Lecture Platform, even after the Immortal Master’s figure had disappeared, one could still close their eyes and give rise to all kinds of mysterious insights.

At the highest level of the Dao Lecture Platform, one could vaguely see a glowing platform floating above.

Upon that platform, the names of cultivation techniques seemed to be engraved one after another.

While seated on the Dao Lecture Platform, with a single thought, one could understand the specific details of these cultivation techniques.

Each cultivator could choose one technique to cultivate on their own.

Once someone completed their selection, the name of that cultivation technique would disappear from the glowing platform. It would transform into a streak of light and enter the selected cultivator’s sea of consciousness.

Sun Erlang and Wang Xuanba stared at the thousands upon thousands of cultivation technique names until they were almost dazzled.

“Erlang, which one do you think I should choose?” Wang Xuanba asked while scratching his head.

“There is no need to rush. There are so many cultivation techniques, take your time choosing. Even if people from other places hear the news and rush here, it will take at least several days. But once you make a choice, if you want to change it, you will have to wait until the next major realm, so you must be cautious,” Sun Erlang analyzed calmly without even blinking.

...

Above the Dao Lecture Platform.

The preaching figure had actually never left. It had merely concealed itself so the people below could not discover it.

All of the cultivation techniques here had been obtained from the little girl Derivation Law Jade from the previous life.

The Derivation Law Jade had used simulated personalities to slack off.

And the cultivation techniques deduced by those simulated personalities had naturally been recorded by Li Fan.

At the anchor point of Year 3, these cultivation techniques had not yet been deduced by the Derivation Law Jade, so there was no need to worry about alerting the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance Protectorate Hall.

The stockpile accumulated by the Derivation Law Jade in the previous life was enough for Li Fan to use for a very long time.

“In this life, I shall become the Teacher of Heaven and Earth.”

“I shall spread the Dao across Xuanhuang, beginning from Great Xuan.”

The Immortal Ancestor shadow sitting cross-legged in the air looked at the countless living beings rushing over from all across Great Xuan and thought this to himself.

He controlled the spiritual qi circulation of the Dao Lecture Platform, expanding the range of the white circle on the ground once more.

...

The shadow silently preached the Dao, igniting the first sparks of becoming the Teacher of Heaven and Earth.

Meanwhile, Li Fan’s true body arrived deep beneath Great Xuan.

Since his plan in this life was to use the Spirit of Heaven and Earth of the Super Xuanhuang Realm to achieve Dao Integration, he naturally had to stimulate the Xuanhuang Realm’s potential to its absolute limit.

Aside from factors such as immortal spiritual qi, the hidden powers of the remnant worlds, and the Creation Immortal Character.

Driving the affiliated small worlds to return to Xuanhuang and achieving the unification of all worlds could also serve as a major source of support.

After all, no matter how small the mosquito, it is still meat.

Especially after Li Fan used the True Immortal seal script character [Creation] to first bring about the sublimation and transformation of each small world, the return of all worlds would undoubtedly be a considerable source of nourishment for the Xuanhuang Realm.

After all, the stronger the Xuanhuang Realm became in the future, the stronger the Spirit of Heaven and Earth it would nurture.

And that would be even more advantageous for Li Fan.

“The subsidiary worlds were pushed away by the World-Rift Whales, and after several thousand years of evolution, they have already drifted far from the Xuanhuang main world. They are only connected to the Xuanhuang Realm through long and narrow void passages.”

“If I want to push them into merging with the Xuanhuang Realm once more, the first thing I must do is reactivate those severed connections.”

Li Fan closed his eyes, and within his sea of consciousness appeared the image of the Great Xuan small world and the Xuanhuang light sphere.

Great Xuan seemed like a drifting speck of light floating outside, flickering uncertainly, neither fully near nor truly distant.

With a movement of thought, the grand formation rose. Vast spiritual energy surged from Li Fan’s body, rushing endlessly beneath the earth and spreading across every corner of Great Xuan.

And from Li Fan’s perspective, lines of formation runes began to materialize.

Using the formation as a blade, he continuously transformed the Great Xuan small world.

Without anyone being able to detect it, the small world slowly moved through the void toward the Xuanhuang Realm.

Undoing all the efforts of countless World-Rift Whales over thousands of years.

Just before colliding with the Xuanhuang Realm, the Great Xuan small world finally came to a halt.

Formation tendrils slowly emerged from the world itself, silently attaching themselves to the Xuanhuang main world.

Just like a fetus receiving nourishment from its mother through the placenta, the transformation process of the Great Xuan small world instantly accelerated many times over.

When selecting the point of attachment, Li Fan had deliberately altered the connection point between the Great Xuan small world and the Xuanhuang main world.

He did not choose the Congyun Sea, but instead changed it to Shilin Prefecture.

This was to avoid triggering a stress response from the Xuanhuang Realm.

Compared to the vast Xuanhuang main world, the size of the Great Xuan small world was practically negligible.

Thus, Great Xuan’s attachment had not yet attracted the attention of the Xuanhuang Realm.

And because of this, Li Fan’s plan proceeded smoothly.

Threadlike formation rune lines, so faint as to be almost undetectable, slowly entered the Xuanhuang Realm through Great Xuan’s tendrils.

While tightening the connection between the Great Xuan small world and Xuanhuang, they also silently transferred a portion of a massive grand formation into the Xuanhuang Realm.

It was merely an incomplete formation structure. Before it was formally activated, even Li Fan himself would find it difficult to detect.

“The day All Worlds return will be the day this formation is completed.”

What Li Fan was laying down this time was naturally not the All Things Return to Void Grand Formation.

Rather, it was a Grand Formation meant to capture the future Celestial Spirit of Heaven and Earth that would be born.

This was what it meant to prepare against future dangers.

After the birth of the Super Xuanhuang Realm, the very first Celestial Spirit of Heaven and Earth it nurtured would be Li Fan’s future Dao Integration target.

Through a series of guided manipulations, he would continuously increase the difficulty of the heavenly duty it would be required to carry out.

The more strength Xuanhuang borrowed, the stronger the Celestial Spirit of Heaven and Earth would become.

To ensure absolute certainty, and to achieve successful Dao Integration as quickly as possible, this preemptively prepared immortal formation was of utmost importance.

“Among the Spirits of Heaven and Earth, the strongest has always been the phantom of the successive Great Celestial Venerables. The Spirits of Heaven and Earth are all gathered upon its body. That single entity alone is equivalent to the combined Spirits of Heaven and Earth of more than half the Xuanhuang Realm.”

“In the 115th life, Heavenly Dao Bai was already able to slightly resist Immortal Ancestor. In this life, after all the comprehensive enhancements I have applied, it should be able to reach the limit of the star sea.”

“If my research into immortal spiritual qi makes further breakthroughs, it may even be possible to achieve the Half-Immortal Realm…”

“The only thing I need to consider is that the phantom of the Great Celestial Venerable may still carry traces of the Immortal Realm from the past. While devouring it, I must remain cautious and on guard.”

Recalling the strange influence Heavenly Dao Bai had once exerted on his mind, Li Fan silently contemplated.

As the forward base for transmitting the Dao into Xuanhuang, and as the template for the formations of the other small worlds in the future, Li Fan was especially meticulous in constructing Great Xuan’s infiltration formation.

In the previous life, the Heavenly Doctor and Immortal Ancestor had once joined forces to use the technique [Sealing Soul Substituting World].

This proved that the two had already reached an incomparably meticulous degree of control over the Xuanhuang Realm.

If the infiltration formation tendrils of the small world were discovered by them, and the two returned from the starry sky, Li Fan’s plan would be thrown into disorder.
