My Longevity Simulation Chapter 1203: A Secret Encounter in the Star Sea

This was undoubtedly a supreme secret of the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance.

Buried with extreme secrecy. Even with partial repairs to the [Primal Chaos Reveals in Form] grand array, the Boundless Mirror encountered immense hardship in its pursuit.

Constant caution was required to evade detection from the Tianxuan Mirror. Amid the unceasing searches, signs of overload slowly emerged on the Boundless Mirror.

Violent tremors shook the mirror's frame, while subtle fissures began forming on its face.

Sun Luyuan's eyes grew crimson with strain. Multiple times, he almost extended his hand to pull back the tiny Tianxuan Mirror.

But every instance, the resolute determination from Sun Luyao halted him.

"Brother, I can hold on a bit more."

"I've located some clues already. We mustn't stop now!"

"Brother, I can handle it!"

Upon hearing Sun Luyao's voice, strained to mask excruciating torment, Sun Luyuan's prior doubts hardened into unyielding determination.

Every second dragged on unbearably. Sun Luyuan suffered as if blades carved his heart and countless needles pierced his flesh.

Apart from dread that his sibling might collapse and face total annihilation, relentless anxiety gnawed at him over potential discovery by the Tianxuan Mirror.

At last, the Boundless Mirror cut off the engulfing dark beam on its own.

The peculiar little mirror lost even the power to hover, crashing to the floor with a sharp clang.

Sun Luyuan swiftly retrieved spare essence blood and infused it.

Only after a long interval did the Boundless Mirror shakily recover some vitality.

"How did it go..." Sun Luyuan barely dared inquire.

"Brother, mission accomplished."

Thankfully, his sibling hadn't let him down. Those four words brought Sun Luyuan overwhelming relief.

Upon reviewing the classified intel his brother unearthed, his face underwent wild fluctuations.

"Fu's doubts proved right. Cang truly got counter-dominated."

"Weidu..."

"The intrigues among Mirror Holders run far deeper than we thought," Sun Luyao's faint silhouette murmured feebly. "Brother, the Sun family remains far too feeble. A single misstep, and we'd be shredded apart."

"Rest easy. I'll manage the rest," Sun Luyuan declared gravely.

"Oh, Brother. Can we leave the small Tianxuan Mirror here this time?" Right before departing, Sun Luyao's sudden query reached him.

Sun Luyuan couldn't avoid pausing.

"No need to fret, Brother. I'm fully in command. These latest grueling delves have mysteriously boosted my command over the Boundless Mirror even more. I figured, during moments of extra power, I could attempt additional probes. Next time, it'll flow even easier..."

Ultimately, Sun Luyuan yielded to his brother's earnest plea.

Besides, the current condition looked vastly superior to the chaotic state post-prior ventures.

So, after issuing repeated warnings, he left the small Tianxuan Mirror there.

Shortly following Sun Luyuan's rushed exit.

A spectral form emerged from the Boundless Mirror, slipping into the small Tianxuan Mirror.

Soon after, beams of light flickered nonstop. Vast amounts of soul-fostering resources got procured.

Li Fan's clone feasted greedily upon them. His prior frailty swiftly turned around.

Thanks to the Tianxuan Mirror's core energy inside him, he siphoned endless supplies via the mini mirror undetected.

Right then, Sun Luyao's shape also floated free.

He stared at Li Fan, face etched with terror.

Such soul-nurturing items held zero benefit for him.

However, this master's effortless directives propelled his merging with the Boundless Mirror to unprecedented smoothness.

This feat eluded him and his brother across hundreds of years of relentless toil.

This lord's dreadfulness stood unquestionable.

To Sun Luyao, he outshone any Mirror Holder in menace.

His personal allegiance felt utterly justified now.

"Brother, you get it, don't you?" Sun Luyao mused inwardly.

The agony he feigned before Sun Luyuan was purely theater.

Despite numerous complications, all concluded without true peril.

Still, the data this lord desperately sought baffled him somewhat.

"Sixteen cultivators, called by the Dharma-Transmitter, departing Xuanhuang Realm toward outer skies."

Sun Luyao saw nothing odd in it.

Yet to Li Fan, it carried profound implications.

As his clone steadily mended, Li Fan mulled it over.

"The Dharma-Transmitter defying norms to summon cultivators beyond the Xuanhuang Realm?"

"What's truly happening?"

"Given his might, even rushed Dao Integration cultivation for these sixteen by the Immortal Alliance would render them insignificant bugs."

"Nor were they picked from the Alliance's current Dao Integration experts."

Li Fan thought of his planted agent, Yang Fei.

Nothing standout marked him.

Li Fan held no fear of Yang Fei betraying him to the Dharma-Transmitter, since Yang Fei himself remained oblivious to being a Great Qi Holy Dynasty infiltrator.

Yang Fei was a bona fide Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance cultivator. Merely, right before the grand exam, he'd made allies versed in its secrets who pinpointed several answers accurately.

"It's certain the Dharma-Transmitter's call for these sixteen ties to the crisis now rocking the Xuanhuang Realm."

"Yet what calamity faces the Immortal Ancestor, demanding these sixteen cultivators?"

"Plus, Echoing Star Force by the Immortal Ruins has dissipated. Unclear how they'll exit the Xuanhuang Realm at all."

The affair brimmed with utmost confidentiality. Tianxuan Mirror logs proved terribly sparse.

"Regrettably, my Holy Embryo lies distant across the Star Sea. Else, I'd trail them for full intel."

This notion caused Li Fan's thoughts to hitch briefly.

He suddenly remembered the Immortal Ancestor sought fragments of fallen immortal realms in the Darkest Star Sea.

His Holy Embryo resided exactly in the Sea of Relics—where enigmatic Echoing Star Force amassed cultivator remnants from the Star Sea.

"If relics cluster there, might realm fragments gather analogously?"

"Past the Sea of Relics, could a Sea of Fragmented Realms await?"

Across the Star Sea's edge, Holy Embryo Li Fan, concealed beyond the Immortal Ark, abruptly widened his eyes.

His stare pierced infinite wreckage and void, probing deep into the Sea of Relics.

"Am I perchance extremely near the Immortal Ancestor at this moment?"

Li Fan couldn't suppress the speculation.

"Should my theory hold, lurking here like a predator at the lair could let me cross paths with those sixteen Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance cultivators."

"Furthermore, a titan like the Immortal Ancestor roamed the Darkest Star Sea millennia-long. He surely knows of the concealed Immortal Ark civilization. Contacts likely occurred ages past."

"Merely, the Immortal Ark may ignore his real nature."

Though current data painted the Immortal Ark as frail and brittle, it survived the Darkest Star Sea for myriad years and grasped True Immortal Seal Script power to some degree...

The Immortal Ark's elite might mustn't be dismissed.

"Zhao Xian's power stays too meager, his grasp of Immortal Ark history too shallow."

"Time for some accelerated advancement."
